Information Emerges

Having subdued the Earth Bear King and the other eight demons, He Yu knew full well they were unwilling, but he did not care. With their consciousness origins now in his hands, they could not pull any tricks, and given his own cultivation, he had nothing to fear. Once the matter of Pangu's information was settled, he would have plenty of time to slowly break their spirits.

Heading toward the Green Spirit Fruit Tree, he found that with the help of the Ten Demon Marshals, their speed was twice as fast as when they had arrived. Before long, the group of demons reached the tree. Looking at this post-celestial spiritual root containing terrifying spiritual energy, the Ten Demon Marshals were all green with envy, especially the Earth Bear King, whose eyes were fixed intently upon it.

It is fortunate that no other demons discovered this, or it would have been quite a nuisance. Looking at the Green Spirit Fruit, now fully ripe, its color was a restrained, hazy green with brilliant, shimmering light contained within. Under his consciousness scan, he found he could not penetrate the fruit at all.

This Green Spirit Fruit has immense effects. If I consume it now to increase my cultivation, I fear it will take a long time to digest. It is better to wait until this matter is concluded! He Yu stirred his demonic energy and, coordinating with half of the spiritual root's origin within his consciousness, easily took the Green Spirit Fruit Tree into his possession.

Once he obtained the tree, a sudden, violent change occurred. The ground beneath the tree erupted with a massive surge of spiritual energy. The demons watched as a thick, hazy green mist rose from the earth, filling a radius of one mile and continuing to spread rapidly.

What abundant heaven and earth spiritual energy! Could this be an underground spiritual vein? He Yu pondered. He knew the benefits of a spiritual vein; it could circulate endlessly, generating heaven and earth spiritual energy without limit. A place with a spiritual vein was a blessed land for cultivation. Seeing it now, he could not help but consider establishing his base here. But then he thought, if this truly were the Mount Buzhou Range, it would hardly be a peaceful place. Without the magic and divine abilities of the Three Pure Ones, establishing a base here would be tantamount to courting death, and he had no time for it now!

Everything would have to wait until he figured out this world!

"Xiong San, where is the Pangu information? Can your innate divine ability sense it?" Although the spiritual vein was good, He Yu had no time to attend to it now. Regretful as he was, he let it go. If this were truly the Primordial World, he would have no fortune to enjoy a spiritual vein in the Mount Buzhou Range, and if it were not the Primordial World, he would not be able to escape with his current cultivation anyway!

"This subordinate's ability is limited. I can only sense that it is within this ten-thousand-mile region. As for the specific location, I have searched for a long time but found nothing." With his consciousness origin in He Yu's hands, the Earth Bear King had no choice but to act as a proper subordinate, no matter how unwilling he was. Now that He Yu asked, he did not play any tricks. He had already lost hope of obtaining the Pangu information himself, so it was better to help He Yu obtain it; perhaps he would return the consciousness origin, and he might regain his freedom.

"Within a ten-thousand-mile region?" He Yu frowned, lost in thought. The range was far too vast; how could he pinpoint the exact location?

"Ten Demon Marshals, hear my command! Each of you is to lead one thousand minor demons and disperse in all ten directions. Surround this entire ten-thousand-mile radius! If any demon enters, kill them without mercy!" There was no other way now. Searching was difficult, so he had to secure the area first and then sense it slowly himself.

"Understood!" The Ten Demon Marshals bowed in acknowledgment. Each led their thousand minor demons to disperse, following He Yu's orders to surround the entire ten-thousand-mile region and forbid any other demons from entering.

Seeing the demons disperse, He Yu lowered his demonic cloud and released his consciousness. With his current cultivation, his consciousness could reach a range of ten miles. Searching this ten-thousand-mile area carefully was not a problem. He slowly steered his demonic cloud, scanning the region.

A long time later, He Yu returned to the spiritual vein, feeling depressed. After much toil, he had scanned the entire ten-thousand-mile area—he had even searched a hundred meters underground—but he still had not found the Pangu information.

Could the Earth Bear King have lied? This thought had barely surfaced before He Yu dismissed it. The Bear King's consciousness origin was in his hands; he could not possibly obtain it himself, so his best interest was to help He Yu, which would benefit him as well.

Unable to find the Pangu information for the time being, He Yu's mind shifted to another problem. The emergence of important treasures in the Primordial World would cause changes in the celestial trends. There was no change at all right now, which meant it was not yet time for the information to emerge. But how long would he have to wait?

Wait!

Pangu's pressure?

I understand. It must be after the Pangu pressure on the periphery of the Mount Buzhou Range has finished receding! He Yu thought to himself. He then realized that when the information emerged, it might trigger a change in the celestial trends, and at that time, he feared a swarm of demons would descend. Although he considered his own cultivation powerful, he was not necessarily the strongest, and what if several powerful demons joined forces?

I will use this spiritual vein to cultivate and increase my strength somewhat. In any case, I cannot find the information now! With his mind made up, He Yu immediately lowered his demonic cloud. He landed on the ground, directly over the gap that had appeared after he took the Green Spirit Fruit Tree. Standing firmly on his six legs with the spiritual root by his side, he calmed his heart and began to circulate the Eight Meridians Mystic Pole to absorb the abundant heaven and earth spiritual energy.

Cultivating above the gap of the spiritual vein was truly rapid, more than a hundred times faster than in ordinary places.

Once the Ten Demon Marshals had surrounded the ten-thousand-mile region, they arranged for the minor demons to keep a strict watch. If any demons were discovered, they were to be killed without mercy; if the intruder was powerful, they were to report it immediately.

Time slipped away quietly amidst He Yu's cultivation and the Ten Demon Marshals' strict guard!

He did not know how much time had passed—perhaps a day, perhaps two—when all the demons suddenly felt the world tremble. A piece of information appeared in their hearts: the Pangu pressure had finished receding!

As soon as the Pangu pressure receded, He Yu, who was in the midst of cultivation, opened his eyes. Two beams of sharp light shot out three feet, clearly showing that his cultivation had advanced another step.

Is it about to emerge? Feeling the twenty-five demonic cores within his body, He Yu was incomparably confident. With his current cultivation, was there any other demon who could compete with him for the Pangu information?

During this period of cultivation, He Yu had elevated all twenty-four of his internal demonic cores to the peak of the early Golden Core stage. He only needed a little more time to break through to the mid-Golden Core stage, and his main demonic core had also improved. With his current cultivation, by utilizing all twenty-five demonic cores, he was confident that he was invincible against anyone below the late Golden Core stage!

Rumble!

Just as He Yu had guessed, following the recession of the Pangu pressure, the Pangu information was about to emerge. The ten-thousand-mile region vibrated violently, and waves of invisible aura radiated outward, shrouding a hundred-thousand-mile radius. At the same time, an invisible shockwave spread rapidly, instantly vanishing from He Yu's senses; he had no idea how far it had traveled.

The aura triggered a change in the celestial trends. Suddenly, the sky within a hundred-thousand-mile radius turned a brilliant gold, and divine light shot straight up, as if another golden Mount Buzhou, ten thousand miles in diameter, had appeared.

This commotion is truly too great! It seems it cannot be hidden. How could the demons entering the Mount Buzhou Range not discover it? I can only hope they cannot arrive in time, otherwise, I fear there will be some trouble. Seeing the terrifying change in the celestial trends above, He Yu felt both shocked and depressed. He had gone to such great lengths, yet in the end, he had failed to keep it all for himself.

As the celestial trends shifted, He Yu simultaneously sensed waves of consciousness energy radiating from the ten-thousand-mile region, gathering upward...!
