The Dark Mage and others emerged from the secret chamber, arriving at the plaza in front of the Black Magic Palace.
Muen personally went to summon Wei Chen, calling him out from his secluded training.
Wei Chen then called forth the Demon Lotus Emperor, and the group gathered together.
Seeing the serious expressions on the faces of the Dark Mage, Muen, Ji Dingxuan, and Ji Yuanxuan, Wei Chen understood that something significant was about to happen.
However, when he looked at Ji Dingxuan and Ji Yuanxuan, he could sense a hint of excitement hidden beneath their serious demeanor.
In less than two months, both Wei Chen and the Demon Lotus Emperor had made considerable progress.
Wei Chen had rapidly advanced to the Fifteen Levels of Warrior. In the Demon Realm, at his age, he was already considered quite strong. He was just one step away from reaching the Infant Demon Realm, which marked the threshold of mastery.
Meanwhile, the Demon Lotus Emperor had broken through to the Peak of Earth Soul Realm and had condensed a Spatial Martial Soul, achieving an impressive level of cultivation.
However, reaching the Soul Realm still seemed distant for him. The Martial Soul he sought had to be the Time Martial Soul; any other attribute would be of little use to him.
Both Wei Chen and the Demon Lotus Emperor felt that their transformations were entirely normal.
Yet, to the Dark Mage and others, it was nothing short of terrifying.
After realizing the extent of the Demon Lotus Emperor's power, the Dark Mage and his companions recalled their first encounter with this mysterious fellow. At that time, he had just formed a body composed of Mental Strength and had no Warrior Realm to speak of. It wasn't due to a lack of insight that they couldn't see through him back then.
Now that they recognized the Demon Lotus Emperor's Warrior Realm, they felt a chill run down their spines.
This was an astonishing rate of growth!
They wanted to inquire further but hesitated since they weren't familiar with the Demon Lotus Emperor, who seemed cold and unapproachable. Thus, they refrained from asking.
On Wei Chen's side, in less than two months' time, he had gone from just beginning to cultivate magic power to breaking through to Return to Demon Realm. He was so close to becoming an expert in the Infant Demon Realm that it left the Dark Mage speechless.
Ji Dingxuan and Ji Yuanxuan exchanged wry smiles upon realizing Wei Chen's Magic Realm. What kind of elixir had this fellow consumed? Even though there were many elixirs within the Black Magic Clan, it shouldn't have been enough for such rapid advancement! Moreover, for future development, it was impossible to consume too many elixirs during early cultivation as it would hinder later progress; surely the Dark Mage understood this point.
So, Wei Chen has reached this point without taking any Elixirs?
Ji Dingxuan and Ji Yuanxuan were utterly shocked, even more so than when Wei Chen defeated Ginger Guest!
They finally understood that Wei Chen's talent was truly unprecedented in the entire Demon Realm!
Where could they find such a formidable talent?
They secretly felt relieved that they hadn't opposed the Black Magic Clan or forced Ji Min to choose Ginger Guest.
What was Ginger Guest compared to Wei Chen?
Not even worth mentioning.
Seeing the strange gazes from everyone, Wei Chen realized the reason behind it.
However, he was at a loss; he had cultivated too quickly, making it difficult to suppress the magic power within him, which revealed his Magic Realm to others. Given some time to adjust, he could control and hide his magic power well enough that ordinary people wouldn't be able to see his Warrior Realm.
At present, anyone with keen eyes could tell that his Magic Realm was unstable, with magic power scattering around him. His strength at the ninth level of Return to Demon Realm was quite conspicuous.
"Wei Chen, how did you do it?"
The Dark Mage couldn't hold back any longer after a moment of hesitation. He looked at Wei Chen and asked earnestly.
Wei Chen shrugged helplessly and said, "Honestly, I don't know. I just focus on serious cultivation. I haven't thought too much about anything else."
"Sigh, your level of cultivation makes us old fellows feel like you've consumed some Elixir!" the Dark Mage sighed.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I never use any pills for my cultivation," Wei Chen replied lightly.
Upon hearing this, Ji Dingxuan and Ji Yuanxuan finally understood—Wei Chen really hadn't taken anything and had forcefully broken through to such a level!
Sweat dripped down, a feeling of embarrassment washing over.
Standing on one side, Ji Min and Yan Qiqi felt differently.
Ji Min believed that Wei Chen had performed a miracle, while Yan Qiqi thought it was merely a natural display. No matter what Wei Chen did, Yan Qiqi found it completely natural.
That feeling had seeped deep into their bones.
Ji Min secretly thought that he hadn't misjudged Wei Chen; his talent was indeed formidable.
For the moment, pushing aside the shock in his heart, the Dark Mage looked towards the Dragon Clan and said, "Children, the Dragon Clan is currently engulfed in flames of war; we can prepare to strike."
The Dark Mage outlined the situation within the Dragon Clan. Wei Chen frowned and said, "Grandfather, sending troops now might not be the best choice."
"Oh? Why is that?"
The Dark Mage looked at Wei Chen with a grin.
Wei Chen understood that the Dark Mage's question was merely a test of his judgment.
He explained, "If we wait until the Dragon Clan has fought for a while and both the royal family and the Senator Family's armies are exhausted, then we can strike. Right now, they are in the heat of battle; if we intervene, it would be counterproductive. We don't want to end up in a situation where they stop fighting each other and unite against us—that would be troublesome. The best strategy is to wait until they are worn out before we move in. By then, their combined forces against our Army will have significantly diminished."
Upon hearing this, the Dark Mage nodded and smiled. "Exactly! That's what we think as well. Our plan is to take three years to prepare, allowing the Dragon Clan three years to fight among themselves. By then, we can maximize our benefits and take down the Dragon Clan at minimal cost."
This was the result of negotiations between the Dark Mage and Ji Dingxuan, supported by the higher-ups of the Black Magic Clan and Dark Demon Clan. A large-scale military deployment was no joke; transitioning from a tripartite balance to two powers dominating the demon realm posed significant challenges in eliminating the strongest Dragon Clan.
If not for the internal strife within the Dragon Clan, the alliance between the Black Magic Clan and Dark Demon Clan would yield little advantage.
Among the Three Great Clans, it was nearly impossible for any two factions to unite and eliminate another major clan.
However, the infighting within the Dragon Clan provided the Black Magic Clan with an excellent opportunity.
All of this was due to the fact that the Beast Tide had not erupted. If it had, there would have been no possibility of survival.
"Three years is nothing; it's only three in the Soul World. But if things continue like this, I wonder if the Azure Mountain Peach Blossom Sect can hold on?" Wei Chen thought to himself.
With his current strength, if he returned to the Soul World, the crisis at Cang Mountain would be easily resolved. The Upper Realm, which is the Soul Clan of the Soul World, wouldn't be able to do anything against him. They would need to send their strongest forces to instill any sense of danger in him.
"With my current level of cultivation, even if the strongest from the Soul World came down, they wouldn't pose much of a threat to me, right?"
Wei Chen was filled with confidence, envisioning a bright future ahead.
Most importantly, as time passed, his combat power would only grow stronger.
The three years in the Demon Realm were merely three in the Soul World. In that time, he could absorb all of the Mental Strength transmitted to him by the Soul Beast Mountain Ruler. By then, who could possibly contend with him?
After their discussions concluded, Ji Dingxuan and Ji Yuanxuan took Ji Min back to the Dark Demon Clan. The Dark Demon Clan and the Black Magic Clan were preparing for their joint expedition.
The marriage between Ji Min and Wei Chen was also confirmed. However, after Wei Chen's repeated refusals, they decided not to hold a grand wedding anytime soon.
Wei Chen wasn't mentally prepared for that yet.
The main reason was that once he truly got married, he wouldn't be able to face the other women in his life.
If there were to be a wedding, it would have to include all of the women—that was a fundamental principle.
After the group from the Dark Demon Clan left, Wei Chen entered into seclusion once more.
As time went on, the amount of Mental Strength under his control within his Sea of Consciousness continued to grow.
The power of his Mental Strength was now sufficient to support him in many endeavors.
His consciousness once again entered the Gray Area, arriving before a vast mountain range.
The sense of familiarity grew stronger.
Wei Chen felt that the mountain range was like his own flesh and blood; every rock and piece of earth was intricately connected to his very essence.
This situation left Wei Chen puzzled.
Standing beneath the majestic mountains, he clasped his fists and said, "Senior, I have come again. If it is convenient for you, could you please respond?"
With hope in his heart, Wei Chen anticipated a reply from the mountains.
In his view, everything in existence possessed a soul. How could such a grand mountain range, residing within his Sea of Consciousness, possibly lack a spirit?
He even hoped that another being of the caliber of a Soul Beast Mountain Ruler would manifest. After all, the Gray Area within his Sea of Consciousness was a place even the Soul Beast Mountain Ruler feared!
"Senior, you dwell within my Sea of Consciousness. Although I do not know what you truly are, I can sense your immense power! Please show yourself."
Wei Chen had his reasons for saying this.
He vaguely sensed that there were eyes within the mountain range watching him.
The feeling of being observed was unmistakably real.
The last time he visited, he had sensed it too, but at that time, his Mental Strength was not strong enough to grasp it clearly. This time, with his significantly enhanced Mental Strength, the sensation of being watched was much more pronounced.
He desperately wanted to know who that presence was.
However, after waiting for quite some time, no one appeared, which was quite disappointing.
Concentrating one's consciousness and delving deep into the Gray Area of the Sea of Consciousness was no simple task.
This time, Wei Chen did not want to return empty-handed.
"Senior, I know you are watching me, and I can clearly feel your presence. If possible, I hope you can come out for a meeting; I would be immensely grateful."
"I have many questions in my heart, and I hope you can help me answer them."
"I feel that we are kindred spirits; that sense of familiarity cannot be mistaken."
"I hope you will come out to meet me; otherwise, I will focus on my cultivation and won't return to this place for the next few years."
Wei Chen threw out the greatest threat he could muster, then fell silent, waiting quietly.
He sensed that the gaze watching him from within the mountains had begun to change.
The shift in aura was subtle, but because Wei Chen's Mental Strength was already quite strong, he was able to perceive it.
"Is it finally going to come out?"
Wei Chen thought to himself as an old man in a gray robe suddenly appeared before him.
Wei Chen felt no surprise; anyone within the Sea of Consciousness must be a spiritual entity—coming and going without a trace. He had grown accustomed to that style.
However, upon seeing the old man, Wei Chen couldn't help but feel a jolt of energy. The aura emanating from the elder was completely of the same origin as his own!
