Wei Chen looked at the Demon Lotus Emperor and Red Boy, speechless. "Have you both misunderstood something? I've never said I didn't want to go to the Ancient World. Seriously, your comprehension skills are lacking."
Red Boy replied, "That's good then. We need to awaken the Soul Body of Reprint as soon as possible; he can take us to the Ancient World. I originally came from the Ancient World, so if there's a chance to return, I would be grateful to you."
"Wait, aren't you the Soul Body of the Red Demon Armor? How do you know so much about the Ancient World?" Wei Chen casually asked.
Hearing Wei Chen's question, the Demon Lotus Emperor also felt puzzled. How did this guy know so much?
Red Boy explained, "Do we really need to ask? The Red Demon Armor was quite a notable armor in the Ancient World. After going through many twists and turns and having many masters, during the last battle, its final master died along with it. It traveled through a Spatial Tunnel and ended up in the Demon Realm. Everything that happened in the Ancient World is etched in my Sea of Consciousness. After the Red Demon Armor gave birth to me, I learned everything that happened to it. What's so strange about that?"
Upon hearing Red Boy's explanation, Wei Chen and the Demon Lotus Emperor exchanged wry smiles, once again feeling looked down upon by him.
"Red Boy, just how strong is the Ancient World?" Wei Chen asked calmly.
Red Boy replied, "It's very strong—extremely strong. Someone like your grandfather, the Dark Mage, would be considered quite low-tier among warriors without an Ancient Bloodline in the Ancient World. In military terms, he might rank as a captain; in civilian terms, perhaps a village chief."
"Is it really that weak?"
"What else were you expecting? The strength of Thirty-Six Levels is hardly enough in the Ancient World; it's merely the most basic starting point. The power of the Ancient World is beyond your imagination. It's like when you were in the Soul World practicing at the Three Souls and Seven Spirits Realm; when you arrive in the Demon Realm, you'll find that very few people practice at that level—they've simply skipped over it. When you reach the Ancient World, it'll be similar; what you understand as cultivation methods are practiced by very few people there—they're considered low-level techniques."
After pondering for a moment, Red Boy continued, "Those with an Ancient Bloodline can at least reach positions like city lord. The Ancient World is vast—so vast it's boundless. When I was there, it truly had no boundaries. I don't know what it's like now; perhaps they've found boundaries or perhaps they haven't. There was once a top-tier powerhouse who spent decades searching for the boundary of the Ancient World and flew hundreds of thousands of miles each day only to die on his journey—not from being killed but from starvation. That gives you an idea of how immense the Ancient World is. In short, both its powerhouses and its expanse are beyond your understanding or imagination; only by experiencing it firsthand can you grasp its might."
"I hope you all get that opportunity," he added. "For tens of thousands of years now, no one from either the Demon Realm or Nine Immortal Realm has ventured into the Ancient World; their levels simply aren't sufficient. Your grandfather's strength as a Dark Mage isn't enough either unless he reaches beyond Martial Emperor level; otherwise, there's no chance at all. But in both the Demon Realm and Nine Immortal Realm, reaching initial Martial Emperor level makes one a dominant figure like a Demon Emperor or Immortal Emperor; going beyond Martial Emperor is just a fantasy."
"Any form of cultivation requires appropriate methods; without suitable techniques, breaking through barriers becomes extremely difficult. These barriers are constraints of time and space—essentially due to Spatial Plane levels. In both the Demon Realm and Nine Immortal Realm, they consider themselves at the pinnacle of cultivation realms; however, no one in the Ancient World believes that Upper Realm is the strongest world—they all firmly believe there are even stronger worlds beyond it where cultivation knows no bounds."
"In the Ancient World, there are numerous powerful beings capable of effortlessly destroying a Low-Level Spatial Dimension warrior—many indeed. But creating a Spatial Plane is another matter entirely. The ten strongest individuals in the Ancient World can only shape a rudimentary Spatial Plane—merely as large as a city—and their power is unparalleled."
Red Boy gazed deeply at Wei Chen before turning to look at the Demon Lotus Emperor again. "If you can cultivate Time Martial Soul and Spatial Martial Soul before heading to the Ancient World, then perhaps you'll truly have hope of becoming God-Level figures. Shaping a Spatial Plane is a mark of divinity; even if it's just a prototype of a Spatial Plane, it proves that one has potential to become a god."
"The Three Souls and Seven Spirits Realm is not impossible to cultivate; the most concerning issue is wasting too much time on it, which would make it hard to catch up with others. If one can complete the cultivation of the Three Souls and Seven Spirits in a short period and lay a solid foundation, it will be extremely beneficial for future cultivation. Moreover, if one can cultivate the Time Martial Soul and Spatial Martial Soul, that would be incredible—truly powerful! In the Ancient World, one would certainly secure a place."
Red Boy frowned, seemingly lost in thought about some difficult matter.
Wei Chen and Demon Lotus Emperor quietly contemplated Red Boy's words, not interrupting.
"Wei Chen, if you go to the Ancient World, there will actually be dangers," Red Boy said with concern in his eyes as he looked at Wei Chen.
Wei Chen furrowed his brow and asked, "Dangers? What kind of dangers?"
"That's up to you. According to the original agreement of the Ancient World, once a Missioner obtains a divine artifact and returns to the Ancient World, they are not required to hand over the artifact. However, this rule was later abolished. Every Missioner is born from the Ancient Blood of certain Major Forces, and any divine artifact obtained must be given to those great families. Once your Reprint appears in the Ancient World, without a doubt, a storm of bloodshed will sweep towards you, and it will be hard for you to withstand it."
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen smiled lightly and said, "That was such a long time ago; thinking too much about it now is pointless, right? When soldiers come, we fight; when water comes, we block. Until we reach that point, who knows what the situation will be?"
"Your mindset is quite good. Well then, let's not linger on this; let's continue moving up. Without your Reprint's aura suppressing them, the attack power of those Soul Beasts has significantly weakened."
Wei Chen and Demon Lotus Emperor reflected on this; indeed, since Wei Chen brought out his Reprint, the attack power of the Soul Beasts had diminished greatly. Those Soul Beasts at over twenty levels now seemed as weak as those at ten levels.
For Wei Chen, Demon Lotus Emperor, and Red Boy, this was undoubtedly good news.
The three continued their ascent and had already passed halfway up the mountain. The number and rank of Soul Beasts had greatly increased.
This increase left Wei Chen and his companions flustered; fortunately, their teamwork was harmonious, allowing them to stabilize gradually without encountering major dangers. Red Boy's body grew rapidly; in the blink of an eye, he appeared to be around twenty years old. After that point, he stopped growing but began absorbing Soul Beast Mental Strength to refine his body.
Demon Lotus Emperor had already refined his body but had started long ago and possessed a solid foundation. With the enhancement from Soul Beast Mental Strength, his refining speed increased hundreds of times until he finally formed a body composed entirely of Mental Strength. Against opponents from the Demon Domain, as long as he struck first, almost no one could escape his grasp. However, if a strong figure from the Demon Domain prepared in advance and managed to withstand one of Demon Lotus Emperor's attacks, they could close in on him for a lethal strike.
Demon Lotus Emperor still had a long way to go before recovering the glory he once held in Hua Xia World.
Red Boy envied Demon Lotus Emperor greatly; he understood Demon Lotus Emperor's identity—the Soul Body transformed from Demon Lotus was a natural entity. In terms of rank, Demon Lotus was naturally inferior to Red Demon Armor; however, regarding potential for enhancement, Demon Lotus far surpassed Red Demon Armor. Gradually shedding his pride towards Demon Lotus Emperor, Red Boy realized that with time passing by, it would only be a matter of time before Demon Lotus Emperor surpassed him. Natural entities have that advantage—they possess infinite potential for enhancement compared to those forged through artificial means.
The Reprint in Wei Chen's hand was a treasure born from the Ancient World, making it exceptionally precious.
Red Boy had grown up; he was no longer just Red Boy but had transformed into a robust young man. However, Wei Chen and Demon Lotus Emperor had gotten used to calling him Red Boy, and he himself accepted that title, so they continued to refer to him as Red Boy.
He no longer absorbed Soul Beasts' Mental Strength to enhance his own; instead, he concentrated that Mental Strength into his body, hoping to quickly solidify his physical form.
For Red Boy, the emergence of a physical body by Demon Lotus Emperor served as motivation. Earlier, he thought it was too difficult to condense a body using Mental Strength alone. The example set by Demon Lotus Emperor inspired him to pursue that direction as well.
He understood deeply that only by possessing a human body could he begin cultivating and become strong. Otherwise, he would remain a Soul Body forever, hidden from the light, unable to become a true person!
Wei Chen absorbed the Mental Strength from Soul Beasts to steadily enhance his own Mental Strength. His Soul Power Realm was also progressing steadily, gradually approaching the Soul Realm Ninth Stage. Reaching the Soul Realm Peak was merely a matter of time.
Among the three, Wei Chen was the only one who needed to balance both Mental Strength and Warrior Realm, so his improvement in Mental Strength was relatively slower compared to Demon Lotus Emperor and Red Boy.
Demon Lotus Emperor, on the other hand, was boldly enhancing his Mental Strength. He understood that opportunities at Soul Beast Mountain were rare; while Three Souls and Seven Spirits could afford to delay their cultivation, improving Mental Strength required immediate attention—it was currently his only means of attack. Even if he condensed his Martial Soul and reached the Martial Artist Second Rank Third Rank level, what could he do? That level of Warrior Realm was hardly enough to make an impact.
The three had different focuses but shared a strong demand for both Soul Beasts and Mental Strength. They tacitly agreed to each absorb one-third of what they encountered, ensuring no one took more than their share. If any one of them absorbed more from a Soul Beast they collectively defeated, although the others wouldn’t object immediately, over time it would lead to problems.
Soul Beast Mountain was a perilous place for the Black Magic Clan, and Wei Chen had no intention of leaving easily. The goal for him, Demon Lotus Emperor, and Red Boy was clear: they aimed to eradicate all the Soul Beasts within Soul Beast Mountain completely—leaving at most one-thousandth behind to ensure their foundation remained intact for future growth before continuing their hunt when numbers increased.
What was seen as a forbidden zone and a malignant area in the eyes of the demon realm appeared so endearing to Wei Chen and his companions!
