With this sound, all the monsters submitted!
The densely packed beasts retreated to the sides, and a man stepped forward from the center.
After all, he is the Demon Lord; just his presence far surpasses ours, not to mention he leads a Horde of Monsters.
However... what is the true form of this Demon Lord—
"Little Pink, what exactly is the true form of the Demon Lord?!" I communicated secretly with Little Pink.
"It is a Jiao Long."
"Why does it not feel like the aura of a Jiao Long? It seems mixed with something else."
The Jiao Long is originally an evil creature, but the malevolence emanating from this Demon Lord is too strange.
"The Demon Lord, Burning Fury. His mother was a Four-Striped Black Water Jiao. Wherever there is water, she would control it, and her poison was formidable. In the end, she was surrounded and sealed away by experts from the three realms."
"So, if the Demon Lord's mother is a Jiao, then his father must naturally be a dragon."
"That's right. That dragon was originally a single lineage and has long been extinct. In the end, to save that mother Jiao, it was obliterated. Both were masters of poison and once dominated all water territories in the three realms, but their excessive arrogance led to their downfall," Little Pink scoffed.
"Still doesn't feel right. Is there really nothing else about the Demon Lord?"
"...The poison dragon and poison Jiao were besieged on all sides. If it weren't for protecting Burning Fury, they wouldn't have ended up like that. At that moment, it was crucial for Burning Fury's Jiao and dragon energies to merge. Unfortunately, they were struck by the tail of the Swallowing Cloud Dragon from the divine realm, and Burning Fury was split in half on the spot. It seemed he was doomed and couldn't withstand that blow. But Burning Fury was born cunning; he concealed half his breath and was ultimately saved by the previous Demon Lord. Taking advantage of this, he infused himself with malevolent energy. Burning Fury turned misfortune into fortune and mastered the dual-body fusion technique while carrying the divine power of the Swallowing Cloud Dragon within him."
"From this perspective, it's not hard to guess that the Demon Lord's alliance with Siyimo likely aims for revenge—to rescue that mother Jiao sealed in the divine realm."
"Hmph, you really think highly of him. How could someone as cold-hearted as Burning Fury think about saving his mother? I see him and Siyimo as mutually using each other; both want to devour the three realms."
I reexamined the man in front of me, who wore a sinister smile. His face was grotesque, with a narrow split down the middle, making the two sides completely asymmetrical. The right side was hideously ugly, while the left side was relatively handsome. The top of his head was similar; he had long green hair, but on the left side, there was a horn growing, while the right side was completely bald. Not only his head but his body was also asymmetrical. I shivered; the overall appearance was quite unsettling.
I really couldn't understand how Little Pink's mother could fall for such a monster.
"Burning Fury, now that we five have gathered all five Life Stones, your power is still insufficient to contend with the Lord of the Three Realms," I stepped forward a few paces and coldly stared at the Demon Lord.
"Hah, would you waste the opportunity to summon the Lord of the Three Realms on such a minor character like me?" The Demon Lord chuckled, showing no signs of fear.
I was taken aback; Burning Fury was indeed cunning and could tell that I wouldn't waste my one chance on him.
"You need not be so nervous; it would be better if you didn't look at me with such eyes. I am not like Siyimo; I am not as vicious as she is. If you agree to one request of mine, I naturally won't oppose you. We can coexist peacefully," the Demon Lord said, exuding an aura of malevolence as he approached me, stopping just three steps away with a smile on his face.
"Master, don't believe him! This guy doesn't have a single truthful word!" Little Pink shouted as she stood between me and the Demon Lord.
"Little Pink, step back!" I called out.
Little Pink glared at the Demon Lord, breathing heavily and ready to charge at him at any moment.
"Step down," I said in a deep voice.
Little Pink retreated behind me, and the Demon Lord clicked his tongue. "Tsk tsk tsk, the master is indeed the master; your words carry more weight than even my own father."
"Enough! If you say any more, I won't hesitate to eliminate you first," I warned the Demon Lord as I summoned the Spatial Crystal into my hand.
"Wait, wait! You need to think this through," the Demon Lord waved his hands and stepped back two paces. "My wish is simple: let's join forces. How about you give me control over the human realm?"
Damn it!
I suddenly recalled that before I returned to the Underworld, the Demon Lord had controlled the Horde of Monsters to invade the human realm while Shadu infiltrated a cave. Now their fates were uncertain!
"Brat, if you touch the human realm, I will make sure you are torn to pieces!"
The Demon Lord's expression stiffened, and he put away his smile. "I have been giving you good advice, but if you don't experience some hardship, you won't know who you're dealing with!"
"Children, attack! Devour them!"
"Fall back, prepare defenses!" I shouted to the few people behind me.
"Little Pink, let's go!" Little Pink flashed past, and I was already on its back.
Little Pink and the others gathered together to activate their defenses. Indeed, even if we teamed up at this moment, we wouldn't be enough to handle this Horde of Monsters. It was better for them to protect themselves.
"Since you're good at poison attacks, let's see who is better!" I shouted, summoning the Horn Flute. "Fortune's Blessing, enjoy!"
Immediately, one beast after another fell to the ground without even a hint of resistance!
With my Realm of the Supreme Lord and Nether Energy protecting me, I didn't believe that the Demon Lord could escape unscathed!
"Daring to compete with me in poison? You really don't know your own limits," the Demon Lord chuckled. With a flick of his folding fan, he gently waved it, releasing green poisonous gas.
The black Nether Energy clashed with the Demon Lord's green poison gas, and for a moment, it was hard to tell who was winning or losing.
Hmph, how could the Nether Energy that restrains all things in the Underworld be so easily broken!
"Hah, not bad at all," the Demon Lord sneered. "Twin Serpents, appear!"
"This is bad; Burning Fury is about to reveal its true form! Master, hold on tight!" Little Pink warned.
Suddenly, a tremor shook the ground violently. Little Pink shuddered several times as it struggled to maintain its balance.
A massive Jiao Long emerged!
With two heads, one resembling a serpent and the other a dragon. Its green body was adorned with patterns resembling a scorpion's shell, and its tail was shaped like that of the Swallowing Cloud Dragon.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed such a monster could exist in this world!
"Master, be careful! The previous Demon Lord was an Eternal Poison Scorpion. Before dying, it transferred all its Soul Energy to Burning Fury, creating this monster. Its poison attacks should not be underestimated!"
Hearing Little Pink's words, it seemed that Fortune's Blessing wouldn't hold out for long. Looking at the casualties among the beasts on the Ground, they posed no real threat to Burning Fury!
I put down the Horn Flute and shouted, "All Nether Beasts, Guardian Formation, heed my command! Attack and leave no trace behind!"
A dark swarm of Underworld Beasts surged forth. This was the first time we fought without any formation, relying solely on slaughter.
"Little Pink, merge!"
"Yes, Master!"
"Stop struggling; watch me devour you!" The two heads of the Demon Lord spoke in unison.
As it spoke, a dragon tail swung toward us, crashing down between me and Little Pink. It seemed to sense my thoughts; the massive tail separated us, leaving us on opposite sides.
The Demon Lord's tail coiled around Little Pink as it disdainfully said, "Considering you are a descendant of my Demon Lord lineage, I can spare your life for now. Once I kill that human, I will dismantle you."
"Impossible! I am bound to my master by life and death!" Little Pink struggled in pain, completely ignoring the Demon Lord's roar.
"Hmph! Do you think you can negotiate with me?! If it weren't for your mutated energy being inherited from me, would I let this little thing go after killing you be such a pity?!"
"You're dreaming!"
"This Intelligence has certainly inherited your utterly foolish mother, who thought I would still care for her on her deathbed. You don't want to be separated from that human, do you? I will make sure you are!"
The Demon Lord flicked his tail, tossing Little Pink into the hands of several nearby monsters, shouting, "Keep an eye on it! If it escapes, none of you will leave here alive. If it weren't for the fact that none of you useless fools have inherited my bloodline, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble!"
The monsters shrank back, not daring to breathe, hiding behind a tree with Little Pink.
"Useless." The Demon Lord scolded angrily.
"Xi Meng, I'm coming!" Chiba suddenly dashed out of the defensive circle to protect me.
"Get back! It's not your time to come out yet!" I urged.
"Don't say that. I won't just stand by and watch you get hurt," Chiba replied coldly, as if he had been holding back for a long time.
"Indeed, we live and die together." A voice came from behind; it was the Sun, and sure enough, they also stepped out of the defensive circle.
"You guys!"
"Chiba, I'll leave Xi Meng to you," the Sun said.
"Defend Beast Forest!" Xiaopu shouted loudly, following the Sun and Curse Seal into the fray.
Now, Beast Forest is the last stronghold in the Underworld that hasn't been completely controlled by Siyimo. With our hometowns being taken one after another, I intended for this place to serve as their temporary refuge. If even this place is captured by her, we will truly have nowhere left to go!
Chiba transformed into a dragon; now he was one with the Dragon Soul, indistinguishable from a true dragon!
"Burning Fury, your opponent is me," Chiba growled.
In the sky, two massive dragon bodies collided. If Burning Fury didn't possess that poisonous ability, he wouldn't stand a chance against Chiba. After all, there is still a difference between a Jiao Long and a true dragon, not to mention that Burning Fury doesn't even have a complete body!
This is precisely his weakness; every part of his body is pieced together. His skills are impressive, but having too many makes him chaotic. Opponents of the same level can easily spot the weaknesses of Burning Fury.
It is evident that Burning Fury has already surpassed the intermediate stage of Supreme Lord but has not yet reached its peak state. Chiba has just entered the Realm of the Supreme Lord. Therefore, although Chiba cannot defeat the Demon Lord, he will not be defeated so quickly.
Looking at the chaos around me, I keep telling myself, Xi Meng, calm down.
The Demon Lord must have some hidden conspiracy in mind by sending a large number of Demons to gather in the human realm. I don't know what information Sha has, but it seems I must return to the human realm as soon as possible to find Sha and clarify everything to restrain the Demon Lord!
"Everyone hold on, I will be back soon!" After glancing at the few people fighting bravely, I turned and swiftly disappeared into the Beast Forest.
I will return.
...
Purgatory Entrance.
The heat still radiates from it, but the continuous Horde of Monsters has vanished.
"Sha—!"
I shouted at the entrance, but there was no response inside.
However, the flames at the Purgatory Entrance seem different; they appear to be significantly weaker than before.
There is no time left. I stepped into Purgatory; there must be secrets of the Demon Lord inside!
