Sun Fei felt as if his hands were fused with the armrests of the stone seat. As the blue fluorescence intensified, the Magic Power within him surged forth from his fingers like a raging flood. The fluorescence before him grew brighter and brighter, eventually engulfing Sun Fei.

The next instant, Sun Fei felt as if a crack had appeared in the ground, and the stone seat beneath him fell through the crack. Then, he suddenly stopped, the blue fluorescence in front of him disappeared, and Sun Fei's vision returned to normal.

"This is..." Sun Fei stared at the magnificent building that appeared before him, a surge of ecstatic joy overwhelming him. "[ The God and Demon Altar ]? This is the [ God and Demon Altar ]? Hahaha, it really is the God and Demon Altar! I've finally found the [ God and Demon Altar ]! Hahaha, it's like finding a needle in a haystack!"

Sun Fei couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Having searched the entire Sky City without success, Sun Fei was about to leave and search elsewhere in disappointment when, unexpectedly, he found the [ God and Demon Altar God and Demon Altar ] right there.

"It turns out that the mountain's interior is hollow, and the God and Demon Altar is located inside it. No wonder, the God and Demon Altar is a thousand meters tall and shaped like a mountain, so it fits perfectly inside the mountain. If we hadn't been lucky enough to accidentally activate the Teleport magic circle on the stone seat, we probably would never have found the [ God and Demon Altar ] if we had continued searching using the previous methods."

After observing carefully for a while, Sun Fei discovered that after the magic circle on the stone seat was activated, he and the stone seat appeared together in the mountain space below the main hall. This mountain was composed entirely of white, unknown Rock, and more than 60% of its interior was deep space. On the inner side of the mountain wall, the silvery-white rocks released a faint silver light, illuminating the entire space in every detail.

At this moment, His Majesty the King's hands were free to move freely off the stone throne. He sat on the throne, which floated under his control, as if it had become one with him. It could float up, down, left, and right at will, which was extremely convenient.

Before me stood the towering and majestic [ God and Demon Altar ].

The altar, towering a thousand meters high, was majestic and extraordinary, far beyond the capabilities of ordinary people. It was a masterpiece of nature, a work of divine craftsmanship. From its base, it resembled a pillar supporting the sky. Around the altar stood eighteen hundred-meter-tall cyan warrior statues, just like the dynamic images Sun Fei had seen in [ The Demon King's Wisdom ]. These eighteen bronze warrior statues were all Dwarf Clan warrior statues, lifelike, as if they were eighteen enlarged versions of berserk dwarven kings.

Sun Fei controlled the stone seat to observe from the bottom of the altar. The entire altar was divided into nine layers, stacked one by one, forming a circle. The diameter of the circle at the bottom was one-third longer than that of the circle at the top. This continued until the ninth layer, which was a small circular platform with a diameter of no more than ten meters.

Each altar has a stone staircase about four meters wide on each of the four cardinal directions (north, south, east, and west), leading all the way to the ninth altar. Each staircase has ninety-nine steps—the builders seem to have a great fondness for the number nine.

Upon closer inspection, Sun Fei discovered that the seemingly smooth altar stone walls were covered with fine, hair-like array lines, densely covering the entire altar. Sun Fei dared not look closely at these lines, which were incredibly complex and mysterious, with peculiar patterns. Without sufficient Spiritual Power and magical strength to support them, rashly studying and observing them would even cause one's soul to be sucked into them, instantly causing waves of dizziness and nausea.

Without much careful observation, Sun Fei manipulated the stone seat to the highest point of the altar, jumped off the stone seat, and stepped onto the ninth level of the altar, beginning his search for a place where the polluted [ Worldstone ] could Cleansing.

Soon, His King's eyes fixed on one spot.

At the very center of the ninth altar, there was a half-broken stone pillar. On this broken pillar lay a thick black book with a black metal cover. The pages were covered with vines like thorns, eerie yet alluring, shimmering with a metallic sheen, giving Sun Fei a very familiar feeling.

"Why does it look like [ The Demon King's Wisdom ]?" Sun Fei finally understood where his sense of familiarity came from. It turned out that this book, in terms of both appearance and the aura it exuded, was very similar to the [ The Demon King's Wisdom Sun Fei he had obtained in the mysterious stone chamber. From a distance, they looked almost identical.

Sun Fei walked closer, slowly reaching out to take the book in his hand. At the same time, Summon the Diablo World's magical steel gloves to protect his hands, carefully observing whether there were any protective mechanisms, traps, or magic circles. Only when his fingers gripped the spine did he gently exhale, and nothing unusual happened.

"[ The Demon King's Sword ]?"

Sun Fei struggled to pronounce the first four obscure ancient characters. A flash of insight struck him, and he suddenly realized that the reason this book looked so similar to [ The Demon King's Wisdom ] was because they belonged to the same series.

I remember there was a passage on [ The Demon King's Wisdom ] that seemed to be written in the blood of a powerful being. It vaguely mentioned that the Demon King's gifts included [ The Demon King's Wisdom ], [The Demon King's Punishment ], [ The Demon King's Sword ], [The Demon King 'Demon King's Longing Demon King's Memory ], [The Demon King's Longing], and [ The Demon King's Counting Rods ], etc. Sun Fei always thought that the so-called [ The Demon King's Sword ] should be a peerless divine weapon or something like that. Who knew it was also a book?

"I wonder what's written inside, and why it's called the Demon King's Sword?"

Sun Fei subconsciously flipped through the book and saw this sentence on the first page:

"We will attack anyone except the king."

Sun Fei recited a few sentences and suddenly felt that the sentence was really cool. In its simplicity, it revealed unparalleled strength and loyalty. He felt a sense of shock. If this sentence were used as the motto of the warriors and army of Chambord City, it would be perfect.

As Sun Fei continued scrolling down, his expression gradually shifted from surprise, disbelief, solemnity, to ecstasy...

The script in [ The Demon King's Sword ] is a combination of the ancient script of the Azeroth Continent and the Diablo World. Both of these mad scientists, Grandpa Cain and Sister Nunnery, had studied this script extensively and forced Sun Fei to learn it. So, while the script is somewhat difficult to read, it is not difficult at all.

What was recorded here was a variety of Dou Qi Sun Fei cultivation manuals, Dou Qi qi techniques, cultivation skills for various types of magic, magic spells, magic circle patterns, magic circle engraving, physical body condensation techniques, Spiritual Power forging techniques, forging and usage methods of various weapons, Dou Weapon forging methods, and forging techniques for Demigod Dou Weapon and God Dou Weapon. It was practically a treasure trove of martial arts knowledge.

Sun Fei had only glanced at the preface, but he was already deeply shocked.

The following content involved countless technical terms, and the writing was obscure, the language extremely archaic, and interspersed with a large number of images and illustrations, a dense and overwhelming mass. Sun Fei felt dizzy looking at it and found it really difficult to understand, so he had to stop himself from reading any further.

"This is a divine treasure of comparable value to [ The Demon King's Wisdom ]. If it were placed on the Azeroth Continent, it would be a treasure that would cause the entire continent to boil with excitement and go crazy. Even the highest-ranking ninth-level empires and countless Great Sun Class powerhouses would be driven mad by it."

Sun Fei only glanced at it a few times before he completely understood the value of the [ Demon King's Sword ].

"This book was placed on the altar without any protection, and I encountered no obstacles while exploring Sky City. This suggests that finding it wasn't difficult. I wonder why no one has discovered the [ Demon King's Sword ] before? Logically speaking, the [ Gate of Gods and Demons ] has opened more than ten times, and at least five hundred powerful individuals have entered the [ Elemental Gate ] and arrived in this space. This book should have been taken by someone else long ago, right? Could it be that I am the first person in all these years to find the [ God and Demon Altar ] and discover this book?"

Thinking about this, Sun Fei found it hard to believe. He hadn't stepped in dog poop before setting off, so how could he be so lucky?

Despite his doubts, His Majesty the King carefully stored the [ Demon King's Sword ] in his storage ring. After all, such an opportunity was rare and hard to come by; to pass up such a treasure would be the act of a true fool.

After putting away the [ Demon King's Sword ], Sun Fei focused his attention on the broken section of the pillar that had previously held the divine book.

The cross-section was rough and uneven, not like it had been cut by a sharp weapon, but more like it had been broken by a tremendous force. The upper half was nowhere to be seen, but the lower half remained on the altar. On this rough cross-section, there was an oval-shaped indentation. Sun Fei thought for a moment, then took out the contaminated [ Worldstone ] from his storage ring and gently placed it on the indentation.

Perfectly sized and perfectly positioned, this indentation seems to have been created specifically for the Worldstone, embedding the entire Worldstone perfectly in the center, with half of it embedded in the pillar and the other half exposed.

Sun Fei carefully observed the broken pillar for a while. There were no magic array patterns on the pillar, but he didn't know how to activate the [ God and Demon Altar ] to Cleansing [ Worldstone ]. Sun Fei carefully recalled some of the conjectures and instructions from Uncle Cain and Aunt Akara, returned to the stone seat floating in mid-air, and manipulated the stone pillar to the bottom of the altar.
