Cavern Abyss Palace.
The suppressive force of the Cavern Abyss Palace swept over Chen Shuangbai silently, but his cultivation was undoubtedly at the Early Golden Core Stage, so he was not suppressed at all. Instead, he stood in the clouds as if he were in his own water.
Chen Shuangbai turned around and looked at the massive palace gate behind her.
The palace gates flashed with white light, and soon the furious old clam also broke through the light barrier and chased after her. However, the suppression within the palace arrived in an instant, suppressing her cultivation level from the Late Golden Core Stage stage to the Early Golden Core Stage.
She was taken aback at first, but her clear mind quickly came to her senses. However, she wasn't particularly afraid. Instead, she narrowed her long, narrow eyes, and a malicious glint spread from them as she laughed.
"So that's what you were planning, a Early Golden Core Stage cultivator like yourself! Why didn't you take advantage of that moment to escape the palace?!"
Chen Shuangbai stood in the clouds, the wind of heaven and earth swirling around him. The gentle breeze was not like a gale, but brought warmth and vitality, slowly blowing through his hair. His jade eyes were bright and dazzling, as if they could see right through the old clam.
"The cave master was previously at the Late Golden Core Stage, while I am Early Golden Core Stage. This is quite a disadvantage."
"It's better this way now."
The Daoist's eyes were slightly upturned, and his face was full of smiles, so bright and beautiful that just looking at him was a pleasure.
He then said, "In that case, I'm somewhat confident that I can put up a good fight with the cave master."
Upon hearing this, the smile on Autumn Jing Demon King's face gradually turned cold.
She had previously grasped the wonders of this palace.
She had just experienced some of Chen Shuangbai's Divine Ability and methods. Although she was reluctant to admit it, she had to say that he was quite formidable among those at the Early Golden Core Stage.
But she wasn't so afraid; on the contrary, she felt that this human cultivator was being far too arrogant.
"You think... by leveling the gap in cultivation levels between us... you can defeat me?"
As they were talking.
The icy blue aura around her reappeared, transforming into sharp icicles that hovered around her, poised to strike.
But it was at this time...
The palace gates were illuminated by a white light that flashed once more. A streak of crimson light and a streak of indigo light entered together, transforming into two imposing demon kings: the Demon King Junyu and the Demon King Canglong.
These two demon kings were the top leader and second-in-command of their respective demon caves, and naturally, they were followed by many Demon Cultivator.
But before the two demon kings could speak, two more streaks of light burst in from behind.
This time it wasn't Demon Cultivator, but a human cultivator.
These were the two people Chen Shuangbai had met once before— Du Taixuan of the Fuluo Sect and Yuchengzi of Pure One Dao.
Chen Shuangbai understood.
The concept of Spirit Embryo is just too alluring!
The old clam's loud shouts attracted a lot of attention. Nowadays, whether they are Demon Cultivator or human cultivators, many want to get involved and see if they can snag a bargain!
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, as if swords were about to be drawn.
"Oh, it's quite lively."
The Demon King Junyu spoke first, his tone tinged with schadenfreude, "Old clam, you can't even handle a Early Golden Core Stage cultivator... It seems your wishful thinking is going to come to nothing."
Autumn Jing Demon King's eyes flashed, and he snorted coldly, but he didn't pay any attention to him. Instead, he looked at the other Demon Cultivator that Demon King Junyu had brought in, a petite female Demon Cultivator with a pearl between her brows and fleshy wings under her ribs, and said coldly, " Yuzhu, come here!"
It was the same Golden Core Demon Cultivator from Treasure Light Cave that Chen Shuangbai had encountered before entering the Grotto-Heaven, the one who was following the Demon King Junyu.
The Demon Cultivator seemed terrified of his cave master mother. He shuffled along, his face timid and unwilling, "Mother... Mother... I..."
With a flick of his sleeve, the Demon King Junyu unleashed a magnificent display of crimson feathers wreathed in flames, blocking Sui Yuzhu's path. He then turned to the Autumn Jing Demon King and said coldly, "Since Yuzhu has agreed to be my concubine, she is no longer connected to your Treasure Light Cave."
" Cave Master Sui, don't be ungrateful!"
The Autumn Jing Demon King was instantly enraged and shouted angrily, " Yuzhu! Is this how you repay your mother?!"
Autumn Jing Demon King looked timid and hesitant. Sui Yuzhu hearing Qiu Jing's furious words, she trembled. However, Demon King Junyu protected her, which made her feel relieved for once. She didn't dare to look at her mother and hid behind her.
The bickering between the two demon kings at the Late Golden Core Stage immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Chen Shuangbai rarely watched the spectacle. The [ Lunar Rites Golden Core ] within his body slowly circulated, gradually adjusting his state to its peak.
Some people enjoy watching a spectacle, while others don't.
The Demon King Canglong chuckled softly, his laughter deep and menacing, emanating a domineering and chilling aura that instantly calmed the tense atmosphere in the arena.
Without even glancing at the arguing Demon King Junyu and Autumn Jing Demon King, his blue-gold vertical pupils locked onto Chen Shuangbai, his gaze filled with a condescending scrutiny and indifference.
" The Spirit Embryo, is it in your hands?"
His voice echoed throughout the hall, carrying a natural pressure that made the faces of those demon Demon Cultivator whose cultivation had not reached the Golden Core stage turn pale, as if their hearts were about to leap out of their chests.
There is no true Heavenly Dragon, whether at sea or inland.
Only dragons.
Moreover, these dragons have very few branches.
Even though it is just a dragon, the slight pressure contained in its bloodline is enough to make most living beings feel suffocated.
Especially the Demon King Canglong, a Late Golden Core Stage dragon, possessed a power far exceeding that of other demon kings of the same level. Even powerful figures like the Demon King Junyu and the Autumn Jing Demon King had to take his existence seriously.
This is why these dragons form their own faction and do not enter the Sixteen Demon Caves, yet they are feared by the Sixteen Demon Caves, the Eight Immortal Markets at Sea, and many human cultivation forces at Sea!
As Chen Shuangbai met the gaze of the Demon King Canglong, he felt an invisible pressure bearing down on him, as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders.
"Yes, it's in my hands."
The [ Lunar Rites Golden Core ] slowly rotated, bestowing its divine power upon the body. Almost instantly, the pressure seemed to fall into empty space, causing even the domineering Demon King Canglong to let out a soft "Eh."
"He's definitely got something."
The Demon King Canglong revealed a set of ferocious teeth, his smile carrying a hint of bloodshed, and said, "Hand it over, and I might show you mercy and leave you a whole corpse."
But Chen Shuangbai smiled slightly, not intimidated by the Demon King Canglong's imposing aura. Her jade eyes met the demon king's blue-gold vertical pupils, and she declared loudly, "I am determined to obtain the Spirit Embryo; how could it be given away so easily by the Demon King's mere words!"
"Good!"
Having said that, the Dragon King said no more. Its burly and powerful body smashed through the air, and its dragon claws were already close to Chen Shuangbai. Terrifying water thunder trembled in its palm, exuding a vast destructive power, and it smashed down from the sky.
