Chapter 197: The Immortal Race’s True Intent
Editor: Atlas Studios
Qi Ming had spent so much effort and risked infiltrating the demon territory to find the target with the golden dragon mark between his brows.
He wanted to obtain the clues and information of the Three Pure Dao Scripture through him.
“What?”
This youth’s appearance was too handsome. This was a perfection that could not be described with words. It was like the most perfect work of art in the world. It was exquisite to the limit and one could not find any flaws on his body.
If looks and charm were valued, the value of this youth’s appearance and charm was definitely at the maximum.
“There’s a guest.”
Unexpectedly, this youth was actually able to sense Qi Ming’s arrival. Although he could not confirm where he was, he still discovered the arrival.
From this, it was obvious.
This young man was really not simple.
Qi Ming’s Phantom Shadow was already almost perfect. It was almost flawless. He could almost perfectly hide his tracks and aura.
The young man still sensed some clues.
Or rather…
This was a natural instinct.
It was like an innate divine power.
A divine power that was born with him.
“This guest.”
The young man continued, “Since you’re already here, why continue hiding? With your methods, in the entire Demon Court, unless the ‘Demon Ancestors’ in the forbidden land revive, no one can detect you except me.”
“Please show yourself.”
Qi Ming was slightly surprised. This demon who could be selected by the Ancient Demon Emperor: Yinglong was indeed extraordinary. He could actually sense him. This was already enough for Qi Ming to treat him seriously.
He took a step forward and waved his left hand. He removed the power of the mystic technique, Phantom Shadow, and appeared in front of the youth.
“It’s actually a demon cultivator?” The young man frowned and exclaimed softly.
He sized up Qi Ming a few times and did not sense anything strange. He clearly could not see through Qi Ming’s Physical Transmutation.
“Why can’t it be a demon cultivator?” Qi Ming asked.
“It’s just that your identity has exceeded my expectations, so I’m a little surprised.” The young man explained, “I have to say that your methods are extraordinary. You can actually pass through the Court Protection Array and arrive at the Demon Court Heavenly Palace without alarming any demons.”
“You spent so much effort to find me. You shouldn’t just be here to talk to me, right?”
“Of course not.” Qi Ming asked bluntly, “Do you know the Three Pure Dao Scripture?”
“Three Pure Dao Scripture?” The youth was stunned again.
He was surprised by Qi Ming’s question. He had thought of many possibilities, but he never expected that Qi Ming would ask about the Three Pure Dao Scripture.
“Yes.” Qi Ming nodded.
“Why do you think that I will definitely know about the Three Pure Dao Scripture?” The youth asked.
Qi Ming continued, “Hundreds of years ago, the Demon Court’s Venerable, Dragon Alligator, created a huge commotion in the Heaven Enlightenment Assembly. On the surface, he wants to avenge his great-grandson. However, in fact, it’s because the Demon Court’s Dragon Son was actually born in the Heaven Enlightenment Sect. The reason why the Dragon Alligator Venerable did not use his life to attract the attention of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect was to send subordinates to bring you back from the sect.”
“Am I right?” Qi Ming looked straight at him, “Demon Court’s Dragon Son.”
“You’re right.” The youth shrugged and replied Qi Ming, “But that was nearly a thousand years ago. At that time, the Heaven Enlightenment Sect did not sense it. Even if you know now, what’s the use?”
Qi Ming continued, “When the ancient Demon Emperor, Yinglong, cultivated for ten thousand years to complete the world during the ancient calamity, he died.”
“In the inheritance left behind, there were a total of four things.”
“Myriad Spirit Mountain and River True Dragon Cauldron, Universal Supreme Dragon Transformation Scripture, Yinglong Nine Transformations, and the Three Pure Dao Scripture. Before I obtained these things, I saw the final image left behind by the Ancient Demon Emperor: Yinglong.”
“In the image, he actually wanted the inheritor who obtained his inheritance to assist an existence. That existence has a characteristic, and that is that there’s a golden dragon mark between his brows.”
“That’s you.”
Suddenly, the young man’s pupils constricted. After hearing Qi Ming’s words, he directly said his true identity. He could not see through Qi Ming’s change, but he inferred a lot of information from the content.
“You’re Qi Ming! You’re not a demon cultivator!” The youth reacted and shouted in a deep voice, “The appearance of the Yinglong Grotto-heaven attracted the various factions of the Southern Region and the Eastern Region to enter. In the end, the entire Yinglong Grotto-heaven was destroyed.”
“However, the inheritance of the Yinglong Temple was taken by the legacy disciple of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s Green Cloud Peak, Qi Ming. His strength is powerful and his aptitude is monstrous. Under the siege of the legacy disciples of the various large factions, he forcefully slaughtered a path of blood with his late-stage Core Formation realm cultivation.”
“Many legacy disciples of the various factions died in Qi Ming’s hands.”
“Only Qi Ming, who has obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Demon Emperor: Yinglong, will know these things, but you said everything. Therefore, you’re not a demon cultivator, but Qi Ming!!”
“It seems that you know a lot.” Qi Ming stared at the Demon Court’s Dragon Son as he answered.
“But why didn’t you cultivate the Universal Supreme Dragon Transformation Scripture?” This youth, who was also the Demon Court’s Dragon Son, frowned, “Who exactly did you give the Universal Supreme Dragon Transformation Scripture to cultivate? Why did I sense the birth of a Heaven and Earth Yinglong not long ago? If I’m not wrong, that Heaven and Earth Yinglong cultivated the inheritance of the Ancient Demon Emperor: Yinglong. Therefore, it passed the last Dragon Transformation Tribulation and became a Heaven and Earth Yinglong.”
“Why should I cultivate the Universal Supreme Dragon Transformation Scripture?” Qi Ming asked in return, “In my opinion, the inheritance of the Ancient Demon Emperor: Yinglong is not attractive at all. As for who I am, you can slowly guess.”
Qi Ming took a deep breath, “You can tell me the answer about the Three Pure Dao Scripture now.”
“Hahaha…” The Demon Court’s Dragon Son roared with laughter, “I don’t care who you are, what status you have, or what background you have. Whether you’re Qi Ming or not is no longer important.”
“Do you really think that the Demon Heavenly Court is a place where you can leave whenever you want?”
“You want to attack?” Qi Ming’s gaze was cold.
“No.” The Demon Court’s Dragon Son shook his head and said, “We’re not enemies. Or rather, in the Mystic World, the five races of gods, devils, humans, ghosts, and demons are not enemies.”
“We only have one true enemy!”
“That’s the Immortal Race.”
“Unfortunately, ever since the end of the ancient era, the five races have been deceived by the immortals. Up until now, the five races are still in the dark about the immortals. They don’t know what their true goal is.”
“Actually, we can work together.” The Demon Court’s Dragon Son looked straight at Qi Ming, his gaze extremely sincere.
“You know the goal of the Immortals?” Qi Ming was not anxious as he asked.
“Yes.” The Demon Court’s Dragon Son nodded, “I indeed know the true goal of the Immortal Race.”
“Tell me.” Qi Ming was very interested.
He had already tried to deduce the secrets and motives of the immortals many times, especially after his cultivation level had increased to the late-stage Soul Formation realm and he had grasped the Great Calamity Technique.
Qi Ming’s cultivation level had increased and his strength had become stronger. He had indeed deduced a lot of information and situation about the Immortal Race from it. Under Qi Ming’s deduction, he discovered that the layout of the Immortal Race had actually been deduced to the ancient era.
In other words, the arrangements of the immortals had already begun since the ancient era.
After crossing a large number of tribulations, it was simply terrifying.
It was no wonder that Qi Ming could not deduce it back then and suffered a destructive backlash. It was because the layout of the Immortal Race was too vast, so the backlash was extremely great.
Now, Qi Ming had indeed deduced many things, but he still could not know the true goal of the immortals. He only had some guesses and thoughts, but they were all not accurate.
“You indeed have the right to know.” The Demon Court’s Dragon Son looked straight at Qi Ming, “Since you’ve already found this place, you must know about the great calamity at the end of the ancient era.”
“The Mystic World is deficient. A gap appeared, creating a scene of the sky collapsing. It caused the Void Wind to blow into the Mystic World, enough to destroy it.”
“There was no choice.”
“Moreover, under the influence of heaven and earth.”
“The Ancient Demon Emperor: Yinglong used his dragon body to mend heaven and earth and fill this gap. Only then did he stop this calamity. However, this calamity is not over at all.”
“The Ancient Demon Court collapsed. The battle of the six races in the Mystic World caused the four divine mountains in the north, south, east, and west to collapse. The heavens collapsed and the earth cracked. The world was destroyed. The five sovereigns also used themselves to mend heaven and earth and support the world.”
“But in fact…”
“All of this is controlled by the Immortals behind the scenes.”
“The Heaven and Earth gap was created by the immortals using the power of their entire race to condense the World Piercing Immortal Spear. Coupled with the battle, it opened the Heaven and Earth gap. However, at that time, no one suspected the immortals.”
“Even the ancient Demon Emperor doesn’t know. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t have used his body to mend the world.”
“After that, during the battle of the six races in the Mystic World, the immortals instigated it and triggered endless battles time and time again. This led to the collapse of the four divine mountains in the north, south, east, and west.”
“Moreover…”
“Ninety percent of the four divine mountain sources have already been secretly stolen by the immortals. Only ten percent remain in the four regions.”
“Do the immortals actually have such an ability?” Qi Ming asked.
“The immortals indeed have such ability. They hid it very deeply.”
The Demon Court’s Dragon Son said, “You have to know that the Immortal Race is a Heaven and Earth Spirit nurtured by the Heaven and Earth of the Mystic World to begin with. It has been blessed by the Heaven and Earth of the Mystic World.”
“So, what’s the true goal of the immortals?” Qi Ming asked bluntly.
“They want to create the Immortal World!” The Demon Court’s Dragon Son took a deep breath. When he said these words, Qi Ming saw the shock in his eyes, “They want to create an Immortal World capable of competing with the Upper World.”
