Fate of the Immortals and Demons

Ding Yubai was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, looking around in amazement.

Suddenly, a tall man with an ox-head and horse-face, about two meters tall, wearing a rough animal skin coat appeared.

He carried a mace-like hammer on his shoulder and strode forward, pushing and shouting, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

Then he saw, beside the city gate, next to a large stable, an old man who looked like an ape, calling out earnestly:

"Don't miss it if you're passing by. Come and take a look. This is a top-quality unicorn horse, freshly selected from the Demon-Seeking Plains. It can travel thousands of miles a day and is perfect for hunting down and killing enemies."

Just as Ding Yubai was walking and looking around, he was suddenly brushed past by a young man who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked like a gentleman, but with white hair like deer antlers on his forehead, which attracted his attention.

When Ding Yubai looked back, he didn't notice that this noble young man, who looked like a human, suddenly felt something, touched his sleeves back and forth, and said in surprise:

"Huh? That's strange. Where's this young master's money? Where's the purse I was going to use to buy a few fox girls to take back home?

Just as the nobleman was anxious to find money, he accidentally bumped into a burly man with a scar on his face and a fierce look. The bear-like man immediately shouted angrily:

"Don't you have eyes? If this wasn't the Underworld, I'd chop you up for a midnight snack."

This made Ding Yubai even more astonished.

As Ding Yubai followed the maid Zhen towards the city center, he felt that this underworld city was truly prosperous and lively. The aroma of wine and meat made him swallow his saliva unconsciously.

When passing by a bun shop, Ding Yubai saw a man dressed as an ordinary vendor, shirtless, wearing only a greasy coarse cloth apron.

A short man with a fat head, big ears, broad shoulders and a round waist, who looked very similar to Zhu Bajie at first glance, shouted loudly:

"Here are the buns! Freshly baked mermaid buns! They're made with adult mermaid meat, so chewy, I guarantee you'll have enough to seduce ten women in one night."

When Ding Yubai heard this, he felt nauseous and lost his appetite.

However, as he walked along, what surprised Ding Yubai was the turn of a street.

It is a nearly seven-story brothel, full of joy and brightly decorated with lights, with the three words "Yichunyuan" hanging high.

These prostitutes looked quite human, with makeup on, graceful figures, and young and beautiful looks.

Each of them has half-exposed breasts and looks very charming. Some are leaning on the railings on the upper floor, while others are standing at the door in a coquettish manner.

Waving her handkerchief, she enthusiastically called out to customers, "Sir, please come in and play! I've been missing you so much."

"........."

These scenes made Ding Yubai, who followed the maid Zhen into the city, feel as if he was in a dream world of demons.

Now that he can understand the language and writing of this world, Ding Yubai is no longer as reserved and afraid as he was when he first arrived.

Although there were hardly any decent people on the entire street, Ding Yubai still felt like he was participating in a role-playing show.

On the other hand, the women in those brothels looked decent and had a strange charm. Of course, some of them might be aesthetic problems, and they looked a kind of weird and perverted beauty.

For example, in Ding Yubai's cursory glance, he saw a prostitute with an eye between her eyebrows, a total of three eyes, a pointed chin, fangs, a wide mouth, a long neck, and half-dressed.

Perhaps when their eyes met, she would throw him a seductive look, which frightened Ding Yubai so much that he shivered all over and quickly looked away, feeling a chill.

"Please come in, gentlemen. Would you like to stay overnight or have a drink?"

Along the way, Ding Yubai was unknowingly brought to a luxurious restaurant by the maid Zhen.

When Ding Yubai subconsciously looked at the plaque on the door of the store, he couldn't help but drop his jaw in shock.

"Yuelai Inn!?"

That’s right, the plaque that Ding Yubai saw had the four words “Yue Lai Inn” carved in a flamboyant style.

Ding Yubai glanced around and saw that the lobby of the inn was almost full. At first glance, there were demons and big men drinking and chatting happily.

At the same time, there was also the faint sound of people chatting and talking upstairs. This showed that the Yuelai Inn was really doing a booming business.

In response to the waiter's enthusiastic hospitality, the maid Zhen asked, "Is there a separate courtyard?"

Ding Yubai looked at the waiter curiously. He saw that he was wearing cloth clothes and cloth shoes, with a pointed face and a thin figure. He was about 1.6 meters tall and in his early thirties. He looked quite decent.

Facing Ding Yubai's inquiring gaze, the waiter didn't mind at all and said with a smile:

"Unfortunately, there's a Tianzi No. 1 rockery garden villa available. Would you like to stay there, sir?"

"Here's the rent. Take us there!"

The maid Jane took out a bag of money from somewhere, and after the waiter opened the purse and weighed the coins that looked like gold but were not gold, emitting a dazzling golden glow, she...

His whole face was beaming with joy. He handed the money in full to the counter and after registering, he treated us even more attentively and quickly led us upstairs.

As Ding Yubai took a quick look around, he found that the inn had a bit of antique charm, but it was much more spacious and taller than the ancient inns.

After going upstairs and passing through the corridor, Ding Yubai, who had sharp ears and eyes, did not hear or see four strong men in different clothes sitting around a table, eating, drinking and talking.

"Hey, fake Third Brother, have you heard? Something big happened in the human world."

"I heard that the underworld has sent someone saying that two powerful monks appeared in the human world out of nowhere. A great battle broke out, killing thousands of innocent descendants of the Yellow Emperor and sending their souls to the underworld."

"It is said that this matter has also attracted the attention of the new Lord of the Underworld, and the Lord of the Underworld is also preparing to speed up the opening of the secret passage into the human world."

"Hush, Ah Miao, you're killing yourself! It's good enough to just know about this kind of thing. Are you saying this because you think your life is too long?"

"..."

After Ding Yubai overheard this, he clenched his fists unconsciously and became even more determined to take revenge and bring the devil who treated human life as worthless to justice and kill him.

At the same time, he also had a bad feeling about the rumor that the Lord of the Underworld was speeding up the process of opening a secret passage to enter the human world.

Once these demons enter the human world, it goes without saying that they will cause countless bloody storms and cause great suffering to all living beings.

Ding Yubai, full of worries, followed him silently and walked up the stairs along the corridor. The Yuelai Inn was nearly ten stories high.

In this underworld city, it is one of the few super high-rise buildings.

The No. 1 rockery garden villa is located on the rooftop of the Yuelai Inn, and there is more than one villa on this rooftop.

There are seven more of them, but the one ranked number one is the top one.

In Ding Yubai's opinion, the whole villa is more like an ancient courtyard house, but it is much more luxurious than the ancient courtyard houses, and it even has a rockery garden.

To Ding Yubai, the colorful flowers of various shapes were something he had never heard of or seen before.

The gurgling stream flowing on the rockery is so clear that you can see the bottom, and there are also ornamental golden fish swimming around.

At this moment, Ding Yubai wondered if he had traveled to a mythical ancient era, or perhaps to another parallel world.

Since it was a separate courtyard, there was naturally more than one room, so Ding Yubai lived in a room alone, and there was also a main hall for meeting guests.

After staying here, he was naturally hungry and thirsty due to the fatigue of the journey. Soon, under the arrangement of the waiter in the inn, countless fine wines and delicious meats were served to the table by several pretty maids.

Looking at the table full of food and wine, there was wine and meat, and they were all delicious, including Ding Yubai's favorite roast suckling pig and roast goose legs.

Apparently, this was a deliberate order from the maid, Zhen, to take care of Ding Yubai. There were also fruits and vegetables, but Ding Yubai was so worried that he had no appetite at all.

"The Lord of the Underworld wants to open a secret passage to the human world. This is not a bad thing at all. You may not know that the human world is also protected by cultivators from small worlds. Therefore, even if the demons from the Underworld open a secret passage to enter the human world, it will not cause too much bloodshed."

At this moment, only the maid Zhen and Ding Yubai were left in the main hall. Seeing Ding Yubai looking worried and not picking up his chopsticks, the maid Zhen guessed the reason and had to comfort him.

Ding Yubai turned his gaze to a firm one, and said sincerely, "Aunt Zhen, I want to practice. Please teach me."

Maid Jane hesitated for a moment, as if she had figured it out, but she had to remind him:

"With your righteous spirit, you should be well-suited to cultivating into an immortal and achieving the supreme Dao fruit. But now, have you truly decided to abandon immortality and join the devil?"

"To become an immortal or a demon? It all depends on my thoughts." Ding Yubai even asked, "Who is more powerful, an immortal or a demon?"

Faced with this question, Maid Zhen knew that this would directly affect Ding Yubai's choice, so she explained in detail:

"It is said that the Three Realms were originally one, but in the distant past, a catastrophe plunged the Three Realms into chaos, returning them to nothingness until Pangu single-handedly created the world anew."

Ding Yubai, who was listening attentively, was greatly surprised. He said nothing but thought to himself:

"What? Pangu created the world. It turns out it's not just a myth, but a real thing."

Seeing that Ding Yubai was only slightly startled and did not interrupt, the maid Zhen was very satisfied and continued:

"An epoch lasts for hundreds of millions of years. Until the last epoch, the battle between the two great geniuses directly established the current divisions of the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm. The Immortal Realm now honors him as the Holy Lord, while the Demon Realm honors him as the Demon Lord. The battle between the Holy Lord and the Demon Lord once again tore this newly opened world apart."

"Nuwa couldn't bear the suffering of all living beings, so she used her supreme magical power to use one of the fragments to create a new world, which is now the human world. Thus, the three realms were formed until today."

After hearing this, Ding Yubai pondered for a long time before slowly asking, "So, who will win and who will lose in this battle between the Saint Lord and the Demon Lord?"

Maid Zhen immediately stood up and left, saying, "Look at the current Immortal Realm and Demon Realm and you'll know there's no such thing as victory or defeat. When you visit the Burial Abyss one day, you'll deeply understand how powerful the Saint and Emperor are."
