After traveling to the world of cultivation, I rely on the game system to survive
Chapter 138 Lost Sea
The demon capital, Yunyou City, is located on the Liyuan Plain in the center of the demon world.
Pei Nianyi and the other two followed the alchemists from Cangling City along the way, and the demon cultivators they saw along the way became more and more powerful.
The closer you get to Yunyou City, the rarer half-demons become, and fully human-shaped demon cultivators are everywhere.
The more powerful the demon cultivator is, the harder it is to tell his true form.
Until they arrived at Yunyou City, the demon cultivators became more and more calm and natural. If you ignore the hair and eye color that the demon cultivators do not like to hide, you can't see any trace of animal behavior at all.
There is no difference between Yunyou City and Cangling City, except that Yunyou City is more prosperous.
In addition to the demon soldiers, there are also demon generals patrolling back and forth in and out of the gates of Yunyou City, adding a kind of strict hierarchy and majesty that is not found in Cangling City.
The powerful pressure that flashed from time to time made Pei Nian and the other two unconsciously tense their bodies.
Yunyou City is the capital of the Demon King, the largest and most prosperous city in the demon world. Information flows the widest and fastest, making it easier to gather information.
Xia Chen whispered to Pei Nianyi, "Tell me, why did Xie Jin still seek an alchemist to heal Xie Ji? If Xie Ji is healed, can he still become the demon king?"
Pei Nianyi shook his head: "I don't know. Finding an alchemist is definitely not that simple."
Xie Jin had planned to obtain the throne, and from the moment he took action, he and Xie Ji were destined to be in a life-and-death situation.
Could Xie Jin be so kind as to save his mortal enemy? Moreover, this mortal enemy was the biggest stumbling block to his securing the throne.
Pei Nianyi didn't believe that he really wanted to cure Xie Ji.
"Let's wait and see. We'll talk about it after we meet Xie Ji." Pei Nianyi put on a hat and a cloak to cover the cat's ears and tail, and then went straight to the inn.
Alchemists from various cities received the call and came one after another. Yunyou City became more and more lively, and there were many more rumors and gossips.
For more than ten days, a lot of random information was collected, but there was no news about Xie Changan.
This day is the day to go to the Demon King’s Palace to meet Xie Ji.
The three of them followed City Lord Cang Ling to the Demon King's Palace early in the morning.
The Demon King is a dragon with a huge body, so the Demon King’s palace is naturally magnificent.
Today, some alchemists are going to enter the palace. The palace gates are wide open, and the carriages of the city lords are entering one after another.
The palace's guards were even stricter than they had imagined.
There was a guard post every three steps and a sentry every five steps. Layer upon layer of the royal guards could feel the pressure of a great demon every ten feet.
Pei Nian followed the Lord of Cangling City without looking away, secretly clicking his tongue. The rumor that Xie Jin loved extravagant displays turned out to be absolutely true.
Su Huaining and Xia Chen also put away their previous laziness. Their brows were serious and their postures were much more cautious.
Cang Ling City is not very powerful and is located relatively far back, so Pei Nianyi and his companions can only stand outside the hall and wait for the summons from the Demon King.
The alchemist standing in front of Cang Lingcheng had an arrogant look on his face. When he saw Pei Nianyi and the other two were still in beast form, he just snorted and didn't say hello.
A fellow alchemist representing Cangling City quietly explained to Pei Nianyi, "This is Yu Lie, the alchemist from the Black Howling Leopard Tribe. Rumor has it he just returned from the Human Medicine Sect in Xizhou. It's said he disguised himself as a human and secretly studied there for several years."
"The rules for seeing His Majesty have changed this time. In the past, we all went together, but this year, the alchemist from the Medicine Sect will see first. The alchemists of our demon clan will decide the order based on their ranking."
Pei Nian was silent for a moment before asking, "Doesn't that mean we'll have to wait a long time? Isn't the Demon King worried that the human alchemist might do something?"
The alchemist shrugged. "Who knows what the Demon King is thinking? There's no harm in waiting. If we can't get a spot today, someone will arrange for us to stay at the palace. Let me tell you, the food in the palace is amazing."
The mayor of Cangling City over there looked at Pei Nianyi after hearing her question and said nothing.
A demon servant came and asked everyone to go to the side hall to rest for a while and wait for the summons from the demon king.
We waited from sunrise to sunset, and another demon servant came to escort everyone out of the palace. Please come back to the palace early tomorrow morning.
After waiting for five days, it was finally the sixth day when it was the turn of Pei Nianyi and other alchemists from Cangling City to enter the hall.
Pei Nianyi mingled among the crowd, looking around calmly.
The hall still has a strict hierarchy and layers of guards.
A faint light flashed on the black platform, and Xie Jin appeared on the throne.
Xie Jin wore a golden crown to tie his hair, a black robe with wide sleeves and gold edges, and a red feather gauze cloak with dark patterns, which shone brightly in the sunlight.
He stood on a high platform, looking down at everyone, with a powerful aura that looked down on everything.
Xie Jingao sat on the throne, raised his teacup, took a sip, and then said calmly, "Now that everyone is here, let's send them to His Majesty."
He swept his eyes over everyone, and Pei Nian's body tensed slightly as he tried hard to suppress the urge to resist the spiritual energy.
Xie Jin waved his hand, signaling the demon servant to take them to Xie Ji's retreat place.
The demon servant led the way while explaining, "Your Majesty is seriously injured, so he is temporarily staying in a secret place to recuperate. A special token is required to open it."
Pei Nian nodded slightly. It seemed that Xie Ji was trapped by Xie Jin using the secret realm, but he didn't know how serious his injuries were.
Xie Jin's men haven't found an opportunity to kill Xie Ji yet, probably because there are other people around, making it difficult to do so.
After a brief dizziness, Pei Nian squinted his eyes and saw the scene clearly.
This is a vast and boundless ocean.
The sun shines through the rolling mist and falls on the sea, making the water sparkle. There are crabs and shells on the beach.
The entire sea was faintly glowing with the luster of a formation, which seemed to be a confinement, but also like a kind of protection.
"This is the formation that Your Majesty personally set up while he was still conscious, binding himself in the Mysterious Sea."
The calm sea surface began to churn at this moment, the waves surged, and the sea water roared back to the sky.
There seemed to be some ferocious beast looming among the waves.
A terrifying pressure gradually descended, making it hard for everyone to breathe. The higher the level of cultivation, the greater the pressure.
It seems that Xie Ji is still in an unconscious state at this time. He feels the breath of everyone and is full of hostility towards them.
"All you need to do is serve His Majesty with medicine. The pills will be prepared by other alchemists. Do not prepare pills for His Majesty without permission." The demon servant took a step back. "Once the task is completed, someone will come to take you out. Remember, do not prepare pills for His Majesty without permission. If you violate this order, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."
The token on the demon servant's body flickered, and his figure disappeared into the secret realm.
The alchemists stood where they were and dared not move, fearing that Xie Ji would see them as a threat and kill them.
After a long while, the terrifying pressure gradually dissipated.
Pei Nianyi, Su Huaining and Xia Chen were discussing what to do.
Yu Lie from the Black Roaring Leopard Clan glanced at the three of them coldly and walked straight into the sea.
He seemed to have brought a magic weapon to avoid water, and his movements were as fast as walking on flat ground, constantly approaching the center of the sea.
