Chapter 262 - Old Friends, How Have You Been?
Chapter 262: Old Friends, How Have You Been?
In the Li Fire Realm, under the invitation of the World Guardian, the Dark Prison Demon Lord led 10,000 Dark Demon Soldiers into the Li Fire Realm with ease.
On the surface, they were here to help guard the Li Fire Realm and prevent other Realm Masters from separating the Fire World.
However, the guardians of the Li Fire Realm never imagined that their decision would lead a wolf into the house.
After the Dark Prison Demon Lord entered the Li Fire Palace, he quickly controlled it and captured all the guardians.
“Hahaha, I didn’t expect things to go far smoother than I imagined!” The Dark Prison Demon Lord was overjoyed. It was beyond his expectations that he could take control of the Li Fire Realm without any help.
He did not expect the Li Fire Realm to request help from them. It could only be said that this group of guardians was in a mess and desperate for help.
He did not think further or consider it thoroughly.
“Dark Prison Demon Lord, you’ll be punished by the heavens for such treachery!” A guardian of the Li Fire Realm shouted angrily.
However, no matter how many curses and denunciations there were, they could only vent meaningless emotions.
Countless living beings had died in the hands of someone like the Dark Prison Demon Lord, and many worlds had been destroyed by him. Would he be afraid of the wrath of the heavens?
The Dark Prison Demon Lord did not mind and said with a cold smile, “After I seize your guardian’s soul, I’ll slowly refine your entire Li Fire Realm!”
With that said, he formed hand seals, and the surroundings instantly transformed into a hell cage. The terrifying realm power restrained those guardians.
One torture rack after another appeared out of thin air and nailed those guardians to it.
At the same time, demon gods manifested from behind the torture rack one after another. They raised the Sword of Punishment in their hands and stabbed it into the heads of the guardians.
In an instant, miserable cries and roars resounded. Those guardians’ bodies twitched, and their faces twisted in an extremely miserable manner.
Everything returned to calm as the guardians’ bodies had already turned into a pile of charred earth.
The Dark Prison Demon Lord formed hand seals. Those demon gods fused into one and finally fused into his body.
Blast!
Space trembled, and the ground shook. A roar seemed to sound from an unknown place. It was the angry roar of the Realm Master’s spirit.
However, the Dark Prison Demon Lord did not mind and began to refine the Realm Master’s spirit to extract the origin of the Li Fire Realm.
…
In the endless void, Li Yu rode Guo Qilin at high speed.
Li Qingyun, Gu Caiwei, and Murong Xingqiao were with him.
“We’ll reach the Li Fire Realm after flying for another nine million kilometers in the direction of the Violet Orchid Star!” Gu Caiwei pointed at a large and bright purple star in the distance.
The star region where the Realm Master’s world was located was called the Nine Heavens. It was an ancient and vast sea of stars.
This place was filled with a powerful and chaotic primordial aura. The laws of heaven and earth here were higher than the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, so an incomparably powerful Space Beast would be nurtured here.
Those Space Beasts could open up a spatial nest in the void, the grotto-heaven that cultivators spoke of.
These lairs were like bubbles hidden in space that contained a more primitive aura of heaven and earth, like a chaotic world.
Later on, those powerful supreme experts came here and hunted those Space Beasts. They used their lairs to open up a world.
He would then absorb the so-called origin power of the world from the primordial energy and slowly expand the space. He would then use the origin power of the world to slowly create an independent world.
Therefore, those world overlords were not planets but worlds with round skies and land. They were independent spaces hidden in the vast Star Domain.
It was similar to Li Yu’s Misty Immortal Island. It was just that the territory of the Realm Master World was wider, and the rules of the world were more perfect. It could be like a real world, nurturing life and forming a unique ecology.
…
In the Li Fire Realm, an earth-shattering bang reverberated through the world, shaking the entire realm.
The dark sky seemed like it was about to collapse, scaring countless living beings to the ground, trembling.
“My lord, the various Heavenly Venerables are attacking!” A leader of the Dark Demon Army rushed into the Li Fire Palace to report.
“Mm, I already know. These guys are pretty quick!” With the help of the souls of the guardians of the Li Fire Realm, the Dark Prison Demon Lord could sense the group of people attacking the Li Fire Realm’s boundary barrier.
They were from the Heavy Mountain Realm, the Thunder Realm, and the Great Void World.
“Let them attack. By the time they break through the boundary barrier, I should have already seized the world source here!” said the Dark Prison Demon Lord.
He did not panic at all. Although Heavenly Venerable Li Huo was no longer around, the Li Fire Realm’s power and boundary barrier still existed.
It was not that easy to break through.
Even if they attacked, he had already devoured the world’s source. They could not do anything to him.
The Dark Prison Demon Lord was not afraid of the various Heavenly Venerables. They were on par in terms of strength. If they fought, it would be equivalent to both sides suffering heavy losses. It would only allow the other worlds to reap the benefits.
Therefore, they would never easily meet the soldiers of the Dark Prison Realm just because he had seized the origin of the Li Fire Realm.
Furthermore, their temporary alliance for the sake of benefits was not firm at all.
It was easy to disintegrate them.
Therefore, the Li Fire Realm was first come, first serve. Whoever ate it first would basically own it.
…
Outside the Li Fire Realm, in the deep sky of the vast sea of stars, countless figures seemed to be stars floating in the void.
In front of them was a spatial barrier that seemed to be condensed from lightning. It was endless, and it was the boundary barrier of the Li Fire Realm.
At the moment, these people were using their magic power to bombard the boundary barrier. The light transformed from countless magic power was even more dazzling than the stars.
“I heard that the Dark Prison Demon Lord has already brought people to guard the Li Fire Realm!” said Heavenly Venerable Zhong Yue.
“Hmph, this old demon won’t be so kind-hearted. The Li Fire Realm has probably lured a wolf into the house. This old demon is currently seizing the world source of the Li Fire Realm. We have to hurry up, or the Li Fire Realm will fall into his hands!” Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming snorted.
“This is going to be lively. The people from the Sky Water Realm, the Profound Yin Realm, and the Four Spirit Realm are here too!” Heavenly Venerable Emptiness turned to look at the countless figures tearing through the sky like a meteor shower.
“Looks like I have to stretch my muscles today. It’s been tens of thousands of years since I fought with Heavenly Venerable Xuan He! I really miss it!” A trace of battle intent surfaced in Heavenly Venerable Zhong Yue’s eyes as he clenched his fists.
“Yo, Zhong Yue, Emptiness, I really can’t leave you guys behind no matter how profitable it is!” The Profound Yin Realm Master, Heavenly Venerable Yin Ming, sneered.
“Hmph, what’s the matter? Are you here to visit Heavenly Venerable Li Huo’s grave?” Heavenly Venerable Zhong Yue asked coldly.
“Of course not. We’re here for revenge, not like some people who only care about benefits!” Heavenly Venerable Yin Ming mocked.
“Revenge? You make it sound so nice. Why didn’t Heavenly Venerable Li Huo take revenge when he was alive? We’re all the same, so stop being sarcastic!” Heavenly Venerable Zhong Yue said coldly.
“Everyone, let’s not attack each other anymore. Now that Demon Venerable An Yu has already entered the Li Fire Realm before us, why don’t we work together instead of attacking each other here? Let’s break through the boundary barrier as soon as possible and separate the Fire World together!” said Heavenly Venerable Lei Ming.
“Mm, I agree!” Heavenly Venerable Xuan He said.
The other Heavenly Venerables looked at each other and pondered for a moment before nodding. They could only give up on their estrangement and attack the Li Fire Realm together.
Otherwise, they could only watch as this piece of fat meat was monopolized by the Dark Prison Demon Lord.
“In that case, let’s attack together!” The few Heavenly Venerables quickly gathered their strength and began to attack the boundary barrier together.
However, right at this moment, a clear voice sounded. “Old friends, I trust you’ve been well since we last met!”
The Heavenly Venerables turned to look and were shocked.
The owner of this voice was none other than the Realm Master of the Flower Realm, Heavenly Venerable Caiwei.
