Chapter 1078 His Majesty and Military Advisor
After playing the role of a grandfather who gave away money, Li Huo Jinwu disappeared into the fire pool again, and the wall of fire that originally blocked the only entrance had also disappeared.
"Let's go."
Qin Fan took the lead and walked into the tunnel. The spiritual power inside became increasingly strong. It was not only beneficial for strengthening the body, but the rule fragments contained in it were also extremely suitable for masters above the Celestial Realm to practice and comprehend.
However, for the current group of people, the primary goal is to find Chonglou first and confirm the whereabouts of Chihuang.
This journey took longer than everyone expected. At this time, the surroundings were filled with black and red flames, and the stone road under their feet was constantly emitting hot steam that could directly steam a Xiantian realm warrior to death.
At the same time, the increasingly murderous and cruel force inside was attacking everyone again and again.
"I can only go this far." Yan Di stopped.
He had just broken through to the Celestial Realm, and his mission of leading the way had been completed. Although he was curious about what the real Flame Wave looked like, he knew better that he should do things within his ability.
Moreover, since he could go deep into such a precious land with such rich spiritual energy, he should seize the time to practice.
Qin Fan and the other two were not surprised by his choice.
Just before leaving, Qin Fan handed Yan Di a Heavenly Demon Bloodline Fruit.
"This is the reward for leading the way."
Yan Di wanted to refuse, after all, he had already made a huge profit by catching that big jar of 'Flame Wave Spring', but the moment he saw the Heavenly Demon Bloodline Fruit, every drop of demon blood in his body was filled with desire.
The extent of his desire forced him to let go of his reserve.
"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty."
Yan Di knew the function of the Heavenly Demon Bloodline Fruit. Last night, Yun Hongce had already informed all the demons about the transformation of the Heavenly Demon Clan, and this item would also be included in the Ghost Market's unique contribution exchange system.
But he didn't expect that he would be so lucky to get one.
Yun Hongce whispered in his ear:
"You'd better improve your strength before trying to swallow the Heavenly Demon Bloodline Fruit."
"I understand." Yan Di nodded, then carefully put the Demon Blood Fruit into a brocade box, then stuffed it into the space ring, and then began to comprehend the fragments of rules in the spiritual energy directly on the spot.
Qin Fan and the other two then continued to move forward, passing through a circle of tunnels. It could be determined that the end of the road was at the bottom of the center.
The murderous and fierce aura in the air at this time required all warriors in the Dharma Realm to start dealing with it seriously. For example, Yun Hongce, who practiced the Taoist way, had already written some inscriptions for himself to bless him.
After passing through another tunnel, the scene in front of him became much wider, and at the same time, a flash of knife light came quickly.
clang--!
Feng Mo drew his sword, and with a fighting spirit in his eyes he looked at the figure who was close at hand. The figure had a burly build, red hair, and a defiant and domineering look between his brows.
At this moment, what blocked the Shen Yi Knife in his hand was a blood-red wrist knife!
The moment the two magical weapons collided, space cracks appeared around them!
"It's you!"
Chonglou put away the power of rules that he was about to condense in his hand, and then his gaze lingered on Feng Mo for a few seconds, and then looked at Qin Fan behind him, which made the pair of evil long horns on his head subconsciously lift up.
"Master!"
A surging fighting spirit with a powerful momentum burst out from his body, and Feng Mo immediately opened his domain, Wind Thoughts Change into All Things!
And the first-level·Wind and Frost Skull Tomb and the second-level·Divine Wind Demon began to be fully activated!
The exploding storm instantly knocked Chonglou back, and hidden under the wind blades visible to the naked eye were wisps of black wind that directly attacked his soul!
"Your strength."
Chonglou looked at Feng Mo again, and then the two of them turned into two rays of light, one black and one red. Bang bang clang clang, in a blink of an eye they had exchanged hundreds of moves.
Qin Fan's gaze only stayed on Chonglou for five seconds, and then he looked at Chihuang who was standing not far away. His whole body was covered with wounds, and his spirit was a little listless, but it could be seen that these were mostly external injuries left after the sparring.
Then, after passing Chi Huang, Qin Fan took a step forward and appeared directly in the center of Yanbo Spring.
Not far from him was a molten spring that was emitting a fiery aura. Compared to the inferior thing outside that Yan Di mistook for the Flame Wave Spring, the high temperature that was unintentionally emitted here alone required him, who was at the Tianyan realm, to deal with it with caution.
With every step closer, the murderous and brutal aura that filled the entire cave increased exponentially.
Just when Qin Fan was only three steps away from the real Yanbo Spring, Wanxiang Dijie, who had fallen into a brief sleep in the space ring due to a breakthrough to the upper level of the Hong stage, suddenly rushed out.
It was like a monkey seeing a banana and dived straight into the Yanbo Spring.
"This"
Qin Fan didn't have time to stop it, which shows how fast it was.
At this moment, a strange voice sounded in his ears.
"Don't worry, it should be attracted by my power and wants to complete an important advancement."
Qin Fan quickly realized that the person he was talking to at this time was the real Yan Bo.
"The important advancement should refer to breaking through the universe level."
After obtaining the special building, Futu Sword Island, Qin Fan knew that the key to the advancement of these weapons lies in the advancement of their spiritual bodies. The long swords on the island were born based on the Sword Island, so the advancement standards have to be lowered a lot, and they will also be restricted by the Sword Island.
Ordinary weapons need to reach the cosmic level before they can freely achieve spiritual forms.
Yanbo is the place where the magic weapons are forged in Jiuquan. Although it is extremely hot here, it is an excellent place for those weapons.
Then Qin Fan stopped worrying about Xiao Wan's problem and began to verify with Yan Bo some differences between his existence and the Xianjian world.
At the same time, the only two demons who were free also entered into a deep conversation after looking at each other.
"I know everything about what's going on outside." Just when Yun Hongce was struggling, Chi Huang spoke first, and he added, "You already have a new choice."
Yun Hongce was stunned. He could be eloquent in front of others. Even before coming here, he had thought about how to communicate with Chi Huang. But now he couldn't utter a word. Those reasons he had thought of were also difficult to say out loud.
"I'm sorry I betrayed our ideals."
"It's your ideal." Chi Huang's voice was flat. He didn't have the arrogance that he showed to others, nor did he have the anger and resentment that Yun Hongce thought he had. Instead, he seemed to be relieved.
"Remember I told you, I saved you just because I wanted to."
Yun Hongce nodded. At the beginning, he was indeed impressed by the other party's domineering and unrestrained attitude. However, when did his mentality change? He attributed everything he did to repaying a favor.
But it's not just that he wants to follow the person in front of him.
"Actually, I know everything."
Yun Hongce gave him a puzzled look.
The Red Emperor sighed and said:
"I mean that you are the one who is truly in charge of this entire Red Demon Nation. I know all this. After all, what I can sense is not just pure malice, but also many other emotions that make me feel very troubled and annoyed."
Chi Huang scratched the big red hair on his head, which was exactly the same as Chonglou's, and then said a little irritably.
"I like fighting, you know that well."
Yun Hongce nodded.
At this moment he had a strange feeling, because in the past he was the one talking all the time and Chi Huang was just a listener. However, at this moment, it was he who found it difficult to say a word, while Chi Huang had countless things to say.
“The fundamental purpose of fighting is to become stronger. My blood is also filled with a desire to become stronger. At the same time, I am very afraid of death. To be more precise, the foreknowledge of danger is like a rope that binds me.
Whenever danger comes, it forces me to feel how helpless it is to be immersed in death.
Actually, I don’t hate it.
Because I didn’t want to die either. The first time I felt this way was when I was approaching the Gandharva tribe’s territory, and the second time I felt my life was in danger was when I fought that person in Kyushu.”
Chi Huang signaled with his eyes to Feng Mo who was still fighting with Chong Lou. The fight between the two seemed very restrained, or it could be said that the remaining energy was forcibly smoothed out by the power mobilized by Yan Bo here. But even so, there were countless spatial cracks in the air and hundreds of traces plowed on the ground.
It still shows how fierce the fight between the two was.
Chi Huang shifted his gaze back and said:
“The third time was during the great war with the Demon Sect. I also know that because of that war, the people of the Demon Kingdom had completely lost hope in me. After all, in their eyes, I was good for nothing except my martial arts.
In fact, I only had a pretty good level of ability.
As for the rest, too many expectations, too many responsibilities, too many shackles only make me feel irritated.
But I can feel how high those demons' expectations of me are.
I can sense more clearly that after the establishment of the Demon Kingdom, those expectations gradually disappeared because of time and because I was not as perfect as they expected.
At first I did think about doing something.
But the only thing I'm good at is fighting.
After I realized that even after making some efforts, I couldn't save the situation, and then I understood something.
That is, why should I care what they think.
There is no need for me to completely lose my true self just because they call me Your Majesty."
Yun Hongce was silent for a long time. He had indeed never really understood Chi Huang. He also knew nothing about his ability to clearly perceive other people's emotions and thoughts, because he also knew that this ability was too difficult to solve for those in power, and it was a nightmare for his subordinates.
No one, not even the devil, is willing to have their outer disguise peeled off so easily and their inner heart seen through.
Of course, this ability would also be a nightmare for the Red Emperor.
He watched with his own eyes as the demons who worshipped and respected him gradually lost their faith and hope in him, but he had no power to save them.
Learn to become a qualified lord of the demon kingdom?
That's not the Red Emperor.
His ultimate pursuit is not these, so he does not care about the thoughts of his subjects. Therefore, he becomes extremely selfish in the eyes of outsiders. For example, he turns around and runs away when he encounters danger several times.
But thinking about it carefully, if Chi Huang had not been determined to escape when he met Feng Mo, he would probably have been chopped into pieces by the opponent's territory.
Facing the full-scale battle with Po Xun, if he ran slowly, he might not even leave a particle of flesh behind.
So is this a wrong choice?
It doesn't count for Chi Huang. It can only be said that from the very beginning, he sat in a position that he shouldn't have sat in and shouldered responsibilities that he shouldn't have borne.
"it's me."
"It's not your fault." Chi Huang looked at Yun Hongce, "Based on the situation at that time, if it wasn't me sitting in that position, it would be Ye Yu, who should be called Mo Yi now. Then the current Chi Luo Demon Kingdom, oh, by the way, there is no Demon Kingdom anymore.
To be precise, the Demon Realm is now probably ruled by his Yaksha clan.
Although some things, including that position, are a burden to me, it is still very unpleasant to think that he would take it away from me. "
"So, Your Majesty is going to take revenge on the seven royal families?"
"I've thought about it, especially when I realized something was wrong inside the Demon Kingdom, but the danger foreboding is very strong. I feel that if I really plunge in, there will be nothing left, so I decided to spare them for a while and settle the score later." Chi Huang waved his hand.
“By the way, don’t call me Your Majesty. You can just call me by my name, Chi Huang, or call me Big Brother. As for the so-called favor, what you have done over the years is enough, and I have also gained enough benefits with the help of this position.
We are clear on this.”
"Are we even now, Brother Chihuang?" Yun Hongce murmured in a low voice.
He had never thought that he would get such an answer from Chi Huang. Although he claimed to be the wisest man in the Demon Realm, he never really understood the demon in front of him. Perhaps because he was his benefactor, he was unwilling to analyze him with the same methods as he would his enemies.
Of course, Chi Huang’s usual performance is indeed too confusing.
A big goofball who seems to act entirely on his instincts.
"I understand, Brother Chihuang, thank you for your care over the years." Yun Hongce took a deep breath and bowed respectfully.
Chi Huang did not stop him. He nodded and looked with interest at the man and the demon who were about to end their battle.
A dazzling light bloomed in the void, and the evil and sharp demonic energy and sword power scattered like fireworks.
But with the passing of a fire storm, everything disappeared into thin air.
"Xiao Chi, come and meet your uncle Feng."
Chi Huang, who was originally enjoying watching the fight, suddenly lost his expression. He was about to open his mouth to refute, but when he saw Chonglou raised his right fist and shook it, he immediately shuddered.
Then he walked up to the still confused Feng Mo with heavy steps and whispered:
"Uncle Feng."
"Hmm?" Feng Mo scratched his cheek and looked at Chonglou. Chonglou nodded with a cold face.
"You're right, my son."
"Your son???!!! Where's his mother?"
"No mother, it was when I was trapped in the Demon Wind Cave and was severely injured by those old guys. The essence I left behind deliberately interacted with the demonic energy scattered in the Demon Realm. After all, I thought I was in great danger at the time, but my bloodline must continue."
Feng Mo looked at Chonglou and then at Chihuang, who looked aggrieved. He wanted to speak but was frightened by Chonglou's eyes and immediately took a few steps back. Judging from their appearance alone, the two were 70% similar, but their auras were completely different.
