Chapter 798 The Wrathful Heaven, Lord of the North Pole (Part 2)

The palace doors were wide open, and a demon of the Six Desires stood at the entrance to greet them; he was an acquaintance of Su Che.

Miao Gaotian.

Now that he has appeared in his true form, he is dressed in luxurious clothes and has a handsome appearance, a dashing young master in the Demon Kingdom.

"Senior brother, I told you before that Fellow Daoist in hemp robes has a unique understanding of the Great Void Method. Are you convinced now?"

"Truly exquisite, extraordinary."

Wuyoutian laughed heartily.

Mai's eyes also showed a hint of self-satisfaction.

Su Che knew in his heart that the mysteries of the Great Void were secondary. What made Ma Yi happy was that everyone was carrying him on their laurels. With the Beiji Yuan Palace making such a grand display and the two Six Desires Demons praising and flattering him, he could naturally get what he wanted.

This is what truly makes me happy.

With a wave of his hand, the palace became even more magnificent.

The twenty-four jeweled serpents, shaped like the sea, sit high in the hall. Under their radiant light, the layers of gold and jade on the walls become even more magnificent.

The ground, paved with cold jade from the seabed, is as cold and eerie as the moon's shadow. Amidst the interplay of these two forces, one can smell a refreshing and unique fragrance.

The fragrance emanated from the wall, which was made by mixing gold and jade with Kuiyin clay made from the marrow of the Heavenly Dragon.

The Serpent's Crown Pearl, the Jade from the Sea Bottom, and the Heavenly Dragon Marrow are all rare treasures that are hard to come by. Each of them could be used to refine superior magical artifacts, but they were used by the Northern Polar Palace to decorate its halls, which shows how wealthy and powerful this Sorrowful Heaven is.

This further demonstrates the strength that Beiji Yuangong has accumulated over many years of operation.

Besides these furnishings, the hall was also set up with banquet tables, with a total of four seats. The most important seat was occupied by a burly man with a red hair and beard, wearing a black robe with little decoration, but there was a strange sense of conflict about him.

It was ethereal and almost nonexistent, as if this person did not exist at all.

On the other hand, it seemed as if it were about to explode, engulfing the entire world in its rage.

During the conflict, he stood up.

"Junior Brother Ma Yi arrived so quickly."

"Ma Yi pays homage to the Wrathful God."

The Demon Lord in hemp clothing naturally dared not be presumptuous, and immediately led his disciples to pay their respects to the person at the head of the table.

Why be so bound by customary etiquette?

The voice of the Wrathful Heaven was powerful and seemed to conform to some kind of law, which invigorated the soul.

"Now that you have joined our sect, we should address each other as fellow disciples."

His divine sense swept across the hall, and Su Che and the others all felt a powerful pressure looming over their minds.

Is this the oppressive aura of a Free and Unfettered Demon?
It was just a matter of a thought, yet it could completely crush Bu Xu.

Su Che looked up at the wrathful heavens above, feeling the pressure they brought.

"Junior brother is proficient in the Taixu method, and his Daoist name in our sect is Niekongtian."

As if making a final judgment, the moment the words "Nikongtian" were uttered, Ma Yi's body suddenly tensed up, as if he had received some kind of blessing.

"This number is kept secret within the sect and will not be announced to the public for the time being."

Bei Nutian looked at Ma Yi and said, "I am about to make a difference, and now with my junior brother's help, everything will surely go smoothly in the future."

Under his intense pressure, the Demon Lord in hemp robes seemed to have his spine broken, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I am willing to serve my senior brother."

"Easy to say."

Sorrowful Heaven pulled Ma Yi's right hand and led him to a seat. Worry-Free Heaven and Wonderful Heaven also took their seats.

Su Che and Hua Gu, among others, naturally had no seats and could only stand respectfully behind Ma Yi. Su Che silently chanted, hoping that the old demon Bei Nu Tian would not pay attention to him.

"Congratulations, Senior Brother. Now that Junior Brother Niekong has returned to his position, our sect can be considered to have established its reputation in the Southern Wilderness. This is truly a cause for celebration."

Wuyoutian picked up his wine cup and said, "I'll drink a cup here first."

Good wine should be enjoyed slowly.

The wrathful god commanded, "Bring up the gifts."

The palace doors opened again, and eight disciples of the Rejuvenation Pill Sect used their magical power to carry a huge, three-legged, emerald-green cauldron into the hall.

The cauldron resembled a three-legged demon toad standing on the ground, its entire body wreathed in emerald flames, exuding a mysterious and eerie aura.

“Junior Brother Niekong, now that you have returned to our sect, we cannot let you leave empty-handed. This item is called the Jade Toad King Cauldron. It has already fulfilled the requirements of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Spirits and Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends. It is only one leap away from nurturing the primordial spirit and becoming a magic treasure.”

Bei Nu Tian said calmly, "Now that you have joined our sect, consider this my greeting gift." Not to mention the Hemp-Clad Demon Lord, even Su Che, a big shot who was used to seeing magical treasures, was momentarily dazzled.

The art of weapon forging emphasizes the Heavenly Dipper Forging Method and the Earthly Fiend Forging Method, both of which involve purification and refinement. The Heavenly Dipper has thirty-six levels, and the Earthly Fiend has seventy-two levels. Any weapon that can be perfectly refined can be considered a treasure renowned throughout the region.

As for the fact that the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend numbers are all perfected, it can be said to be extremely rare. Such a thing is enough to be taken to Yuyang Mountain as a secret treasure for inheritance. I never expected that Bei Nu Tian would just casually take it out as a greeting gift...

To put it bluntly, the number of magic artifacts that have been perfectly refined by the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends is far greater than that of the Longevity True Person. Is a mere hemp robe worth this price?
"Good things come in pairs. Senior brother, you've already given me a gift, how could I possibly accept one empty-handed?"

Wuyoutian clapped his hands lightly and said, "Bring it up."

Four more disciples from the Arctic Yuan Palace emerged, carrying a dark blue bottle about two people tall. They swayed as they walked over and gently placed it on the ground.

The Demon Lord in hemp clothing stared at the bottle, his eyes gleaming.

"I also present a Sea-Dividing Bottle with seventy-two layers of Earthly Fiend Numbers at its peak. This is a treasure of Water Virtue. Although it has no hope of becoming a spirit, it still possesses unparalleled power and wondrous uses. I wonder if Junior Brother Niekong would find it acceptable?"

"This...this...I am unworthy of such an honor, I am unworthy of such an honor."

The Demon Lord in Hemp Robes quickly waved his hand.

Miao Gao Tian smiled and continued.

“I also have a pair of black and white swords, which are perfected with the thirty-sixth level of the Heavenly Gang number, just right to give as a gift. My family’s resources are meager, so please don’t laugh at me, Brother Niekong.”

Another pair of precious treasures were presented.

The Demon Lord in Hemp Robes was at a loss for words.

His original intention was to use the power of the Arctic Yuan Palace to seize the foundation of the Longevity Sect.

However, the current generosity of the Heavenly Venerable and his magnanimity are truly remarkable...

Would you dare treat him like a sucker?

Mai certainly wouldn't dare.

"What, Junior Brother Niekong, are you thinking?"

Bei Nu Tian smiled slightly: "Is this greeting gift acceptable to you?"

Mai was truly terrified; the price offered by Bei Nu Tian was far too high, so high that it frightened him.

This move was enough to send Ma Yi to his death at Xuandu Palace, let alone the fact that it was Ma Yi Demon Lord who was asking for help.
"Senior brother, this... is far too precious."

"I have only been a Free and Unfettered Demon for three hundred years. Because I have rarely been involved in worldly affairs, most people do not know about me. Now I am about to accomplish something great."

Bei Nutian casually pointed out his own strength.

"Junior brother, would you be willing to follow me?"

"I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse, even if it means flying through the air."

The Demon Lord in hemp clothing steeled his heart and knelt down.

"I am willing to serve my senior brother."

"Alright, get up."

With a casual wave of his hand, the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes involuntarily landed on his own seat.

Su Che, standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.

What is Bei Nu Tian doing? He's being far too generous.

A magic weapon with perfect Heavenly and Earthly Fiend numbers is already considered extravagant, and with the addition of two extras, it far exceeds the value that the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes should have.

If it weren't for his relatively low cultivation level, which disqualified him from speaking loudly in front of this Free and Unfettered Demon, Su Che would have loved to stop him and ask him a question.

Are you still considered a member of the Demonic Sect, Bei Nu Tian? Even if you want to win people's hearts, is it necessary to use such a low-cost method?
Why don't you just corrupt that mere Demon Lord in Hemp Robes?
The wrathful heaven was completely unaware of what Su Che was thinking at that moment. He stood at the head of the table, holding the arm of the hemp-clothed demon lord, and slowly spoke.

“I am very pleased that my junior brother has come to return our two disciples.”

The powerful figure from the demonic sect paused briefly before continuing.

“I attained enlightenment at the end of the Middle Ages and have been painstakingly managing this North Pole Palace in the northernmost part of the world. It has finally taken shape.”

"At this time when the world is about to change, it is time for us to make a difference. What pleases me today is that our disciples have escaped great calamity and returned to the sect. Furthermore, with the help of my junior brother, the world often refers to our sect as the Three Northern Heavens, which is truly laughable. If I were to exert my power, let alone three days, even twenty-four days or thirty-three days would be nothing more than a flick of my finger. Now that my junior brother has returned, it is exactly what I intend to do to expand our territory."

“Our holy way has never distinguished between North and South. Come, drink this cup to the brim.”

In no time, the wine flowed freely and everyone was in high spirits.
