"No rush!"
The serpent shook its head, then tilted its enormous head slightly upwards to look at the towering mountain peak.
"Roar~"
With a loud bang, the demonic serpent opened its mouth and spat out a huge black bead.
This black bead was several meters in size, jet black, and its surface emanated a strong Yao Qi. It was clear at a glance that the quality of this black bead was definitely not low.
After the demonic serpent opened its mouth and spat out a black bead, it fell silent, seemingly preparing to devour it. Lin Yu frowned slightly upon seeing the bead; its power was truly frightening, and the Yao Qi it exuded made him feel uneasy.
"This thing is Saint Artifact of the Demon Race, the Nine Youming Pearl!" the demon serpent said to Lin Yu. "This Nine Youming Pearl was retrieved from the Nine Youming Sea by our Demon Race ancestors. It is a Youming of the Nine Youming Sea, containing extremely evil demonic Yao Qi. Devouring the Nine Youming Pearl will greatly benefit one's cultivation of demonic arts. I think you won't refuse, will you?"
Hearing this, Lin Yu hesitated. The temptation of the demon core was indeed great, but Lin Yu did not want to absorb it because the demon core would be of little help to him. What he needed was a large amount of immortal spirit liquid, demon cores, or even demon cores. That was his ultimate goal.
"Don't worry, this Nine Youming Youming is the legacy of our Demon Race ancestors. I think they wouldn't want you to devour it!" The giant snake said with a smile, seeing Lin Yu's expression.
"Oh?"
Lin Yu raised an eyebrow slightly. "Since that's the case, then I'll see what's so magical about this Nine Youming Pearl!"
As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, the giant snake trembled and flew off his back, transforming into a streak of red light as it flew towards the Nine Youming Pearl in front of him.
The giant serpent was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the vicinity of the Nine Youming Pearl.
The giant snake opened its blood-red maw and bit down hard.
laugh!
Just when Lin Yu thought the demonic serpent had devoured the Nine Youming Pearl, a red flame suddenly shot out from its mouth, directly spraying onto the Nine Youming Pearl.
Hiss~
The red flames enveloped Youming Nine Youming Pearl, instantly covering it.
"What the hell is this?" Lin Yu looked at the demonic snake with some confusion.
The demonic serpent laughed heartily, "Hehe, this Nine Youming Pearl was forged from the bones of our Demon Race's ancestor. I only recently advanced to Demon King, so I was fairly confident in dealing with a ninth-tier demonic serpent. Unfortunately, I encountered a king among the ninth-tier demonic serpents. That beast's cultivation far surpassed that of a ninth-tier demonic serpent, so I had no choice but to retreat!"
The serpent's face was filled with helpless bitterness.
"I see!"
Lin Yu nodded in realization. No wonder this guy backed down. He had clearly seen the power of the Nine Youming Immortal Realm just now. It was equivalent to a full-force attack from a half-step Golden Immortal. Even a late-stage Immortal Realm would probably find it difficult to withstand.
"Brother Demon Serpent, were your ancestors demon kings?" Lin Yu asked.
"Indeed, my ancestor was a peak ninth-tier Demon Race elder, with unparalleled strength. Even a ninth-tier demon king might not be able to defeat him." The demon serpent's face showed an expression of admiration when he spoke of his ancestor.
Lin Yu nodded. A peak ninth-tier expert holds a very high position among the Demon Race. In this desolate world, those who can reach this level are exceptionally talented individuals, one in ten thousand. Such experts would be top-tier even in Immortal World Realm, and would be among the best in the entire Immortal World.
"Anyway, I'd like to thank Brother Demon Serpent first!"
Lin Yu cupped his hands in gratitude and said that although he was not a kind person, Lin Yu still maintained his politeness when facing a powerful enemy. After all, he did not yet have enough strength to fight against the Demon Race race.
"Alright, let's set off now. I reckon our Demon Race's holy temple will be open for a while, so we must leave as soon as possible." The serpent demon laughed, "Once the holy temple closes, our Demon Race Demon Race's holy temple will also fall!"
Lin Yu nodded, "In that case, let's go!"
Immediately, two beams of light shot out from the demonic serpent's body and flew towards the Nine Youming Cave. Inside the Nine Youming Cave, black mist filled the air, and the black mist formed from the Nine Youming Pearl churned and devoured everything in its path, spreading a dense, chilling aura in all directions.
Lin Yu's and the demonic snake's auras were both concealed by the black mist.
Before long, they passed through the black mist and arrived at the black vortex.
"Is this the Nine Youming Cave?" Lin Yu stared at the vortex. Although he couldn't see through it, the darkness made him shudder.
"Yes, this is it!" the serpent said.
As the Nine Youming Cave appeared, Lin Yu clearly felt waves of cold. Within this black vortex, Lin Yu felt as if he were in an ice cellar, with an extreme chill assaulting his consciousness.
"It's so cold!"
Lin Yu frowned; the temperature here was noticeably colder than outside.
" Lin Yu, you have to do your best! I can't go on this adventure with you. That Nine Youming Pearl isn't so easy to get!" Just then, a phantom image suddenly emerged from the demonic serpent's body.
"What are you going to do?" Lin Yu looked at the demonic snake.
"Do you think I'm really stupid? Of course I have to separate from you. I can't let you have this Nine Youming Pearl all to yourself. I have to go in with you so I won't leave you behind," the demon snake chuckled.
"You bastard!" Lin Yu laughed and cursed, then injected his Primordial Spirit power into the depths of the demon snake's brain to probe its memories.
Lin Yu dared not yet probe his divine sense into the memories of the demonic serpent.
After all, Lin Yu was certain that countless secrets were hidden within the demonic serpent's sea of consciousness.
Lin Yu quickly withdrew his divine sense.
"Alright, I'll take you into this black hole now," the demonic serpent said, looking at Lin Yu with a smile.
Lin Yu nodded, then stepped down and landed in the vortex.
The serpent also fell into the vortex, and the two of them fell downwards together.
The Nine Youming Cave wasn't very deep, only about ten feet in length. Soon, their bodies landed on the ground.
After Lin Yu steadied himself, he glanced down and his eyes widened immediately.
