Chapter 411: The Grandmaster and the Cave Lord
Chapter 411: The Grandmaster and the Cave Lord
On the verdant Wutong Mountain, the thirteen wooden huts stood empty.
Within the Water Curtain Cavern, Ye Wenxuan sat cross-legged, her gaze fixed on the stone wall and the withered Age Trees surrounding her.
Her thoughts were unknown, but she meticulously counted each day, converting the time into the corresponding Age Fruits.
The youthful body, formed from the convergence of heavenly energy, could not conceal the decline of the Dao Embryo Organs.
That old dog was aware of her existence.
But he never rushed her.
As long as she outlived him, this place would still be his Southern Yang Sect.
Ye Wenxuan never denied that she was doing this for herself, but she also believed that the people of the world should not be forgotten. Her actions were the true salvation for the world.
From an ordinary mortal, she became the strongest cultivator in the world.
Without her deterrence, the demonic beings would have devoured everything in their path.
As long as Ye lived, the world lived.
If she were to fall, the world would perish with her—such a simple concept, yet these fools she had nurtured could not comprehend.
They followed Nie Jun without a word, their eyes devoid of respect for their master.
"You're the ones who will bring about the demise of everyone."
Ye Wenxuan shook her head; if she had just waited a little longer, if she had just calmly broken through to the Reverting Void Realm, all the troubles in the world below would have resolved themselves.
When that time came, she would no longer be the Wutong Mountain Ancestor but the Grandmaster of the Southern Yang Sect.
Her disciples would become the future elders.
It would be a meteoric rise.
She had given them such a great opportunity, but their limited vision prevented them from seizing it. Even with the feast delivered to their mouths, they could not swallow it.
Ye Wenxuan took out an ancient stone tablet, on which the characters 'Southern Yang' were engraved.
She slowly clenched the tablet in her hand.
Alas, the world was filled with fools.
She opened her left palm, revealing a stone emitting a faint glow in her palm.
As long as she held this stone, they would eventually come begging for her help, whether it was Nie Jun or Shen Yi, whom she had never met.
"As the Grandmaster, I forgive you all once."
The woman slowly stood up, stretching her arms, and donned a snow-white robe with the Southern Yang pattern that she had meticulously embroidered over the years.
Now, for the sake of those two fools, she was willing to make one last concession.
She would personally meet them.
...
Demon Suppressing City.
This majestic city had been the gateway for countless cultivators on their journey to the Thousand Demons Cave over thousands of years.
At this moment, the cultivators who had sensed the unusual atmosphere and temporarily halted their steps to observe the city witnessed the most terrifying sight of their lives.
In the clear sky, there were no demonic clouds or terrifying gigantic figures.
Instead, a silver-armored youth, riding on an eyeless fierce beast and holding a beauty, revealed a kind smile towards those below.
"Have human cultivators built their city all the way here?"
"The Spirit Emperor is unaware that this happened after your ascension. The Cave Lord rarely concerns himself with external matters, as you know."
The Divine Wind Demon King responded with a wry smile.
Before he could finish, his head was suddenly stomped on, nearly causing him to fall.
"The Thousand Demons Cave has only one Cave Lord."
The silver-armored youth slowly retracted his smile and said calmly, "That is me."
At least he never feared that another demonic being would surpass him.
Nor did he consider the term 'demonic being' derogatory.
He was the demon, the Emperor of a Thousand Demons.
As for the one in the palace, he was merely a lucky dog left behind by the Southern Yang Sect to guard the entrance.
"This Emperor has been hungry for far too long." He spoke indifferently.
Upon hearing this, the Divine Wind Demon King hurriedly opened his large mouth, and from within the rows of sharp teeth, a stench-filled gale swept out, engulfing the entire city below.
The two demons' actions were brief, but their words carried weight.
For the cultivators below, it was as if a heavenly calamity had descended upon them.
Even the renowned Primordial Realm experts with their vast experience, upon seeing the demons appear, had already fled in the opposite direction.
In the face of this raging wind, even they were twisted and helpless, being swept back by the force.
The howls from their throats turned into mournful whimpers in the wind.
Their flesh was torn to shreds, and their Dao Embryos disintegrated into the essence of heaven and earth, their Spirit Roots and internal organs transformed into pure medicinal power, and were carried by the wind into the mouth of the young man.
Even the Primordial Realm cultivators were no match for this wind, let alone the others.
It was like sand entering a turbulent river, unable to create even a ripple before being swallowed by the wind.
The Spirit Emperor's face paled, his mouth agape in an exaggerated expression, and as he devoured the flesh and blood, his crimson phoenix eyes became even more vivid.
Until the entire Demon Suppressing City fell into silence, only the rustling of fallen leaves in the residual wind could be heard.
He slowly closed his mouth, and his pupils suddenly turned into flames.
Behind the silver armor, a pair of fiery wings made of blazing flames spread out, and with a wave, layers of fiery waves rose.
"Just to whet my appetite."
The Spirit Emperor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, showing no sign of satisfaction.
Instead, having tasted the essence of human medicinal herbs, his eyes filled with greedy thirst.
He pointed at his temple with his index finger and spoke softly, "Continue."
"Aren't we going to Great Tian?"
The Divine Wind Demon King asked cautiously.
Hearing this, the Spirit Emperor pulled up the corners of his mouth, "It seems that compared to this Emperor, you'd rather kneel under that old dog. This Emperor is crazy, not stupid."
"You want this Emperor to die."
The young man leaned down, gripping the Divine Wind Demon King's neck, "Are you tired of living?"
After being trapped for so long, he had already become extremely weak.
The old dog had to release him, so the cultivator must be no ordinary figure.
It was only natural to fill his stomach first.
"First, release them, attract Great Tian's attention, and wear down their strength."
Seeing the Divine Wind Demon King shivering, the Spirit Emperor stood up proudly and flew towards another location.
Until he felt the other's presence disappear from this place.
Only then did the Divine Wind Demon King raise his head, looking at the Horned Emperor with a similar expression of fear.
He had truly changed.
In the past, this young man was too proud and had not fully matured, which caught the attention of the old dog and his ambitions, leading to his imprisonment in the grand hall.
Now, he was actually willing to temporarily yield because of Great Tian.
If he were to satisfy his hunger and replenish his energy and blood, successfully breaking through his cultivation realm, he might even pose a threat to the old dog.
"What do you say, shall we go together?"
The Divine Wind Demon King hesitated for a moment. If it were in the past, Great Tian would have been nothing more than a gathering place for mortals relying on the two great immortal sects to barely survive in his eyes.
But now, although Great Tian had not changed, there was an additional youth with unfathomable cultivation.
If the Spirit Emperor were not present, the Divine Wind Demon King would not dare to confront him directly.
"..."
The Horned Emperor glanced at him and sighed, "I still have over twenty Demon Kings and hundreds of Demon Lords in the Thousand Demons Cave. Even if Shen has three heads and six arms, he can't defend against all of them."
"Since we didn't get any benefits, why take the risk?"
