I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 530: The Glory of the Thunder Demon King's Ancestors

Demon world.

The Demon Realm of Blazing Rain.

On a desolate wasteland teeming with demonic energy, the Domain Lord, Thunder Demon King, gazed at the seventeen Styx Cocoons before him, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Finally, the time has come!

The demon lord Yinma's incarnation is currently in the Xuan Tian Realm. With the cooperation of both inside and outside, the cultivators of the Demon Realm are finally about to set foot on the Xuan Tian Realm again, on that great world that is of extraordinary significance to the Demon Realm.

The Thunder Demon King could not forget the earth-shattering war he fought against the monstrous beings of the immortal realm long ago.

The loss is truly indescribable. In both the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm, more than a dozen supreme beings, such as the Immortal Emperor and the Demon Emperor, have died. To this day, the Demon Realm has not been able to recover.

As for the Demon Emperors and Demon Kings below them, quite a few of them died... Back then, the Blazing Rain Demon Realm had a Demon Emperor in charge, with more than a dozen Demon Emperors and Demon Kings under his command, and countless Demon Lords and Demon Generals. The number of lower-level True Demons and Void Demons was as numerous as the sands of the Ganges.

As a result, the great battle ended hastily.

The entire Demon Realm of Blazing Rain was wiped out, disappearing like snowflakes; almost all the most powerful fighters were dead.

The Demon King of Thunder could not help but miss those days.

During the days when he had a Demon Emperor grandfather, it seemed that nothing in the world was worth worrying about.

As a result of the war, the Blazing Rain Demon Realm plummeted from the top five of the "Thirty Great Domains" of the Demon Realm to the bottom five. If it weren't for the fact that his lineage of three generations had made meritorious contributions in resisting the immortals, the three great demon lords of the "Most Demon Tower" would have allowed the Blazing Rain Demon Realm to continue to exist. Otherwise, the Thunder-Slaying Demon King wouldn't even be able to protect this little bit of his territory now.

The Demon Realm has always been governed by the ruthless law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak. The reason why the Thunder Demon King was able to preserve his power was not only because he was severely crippled in the war, but also because he had to give up many benefits and resources, ceding them all to other Demon Realms.

The result is that the Blazing Rain Demon Realm has become such a sorry state.

The Thunder Demon King felt it was his duty to restore the glory of his ancestors.

This is the only chance for the Demon Realm of Blazing Rain to rise again!

"Domain Lord!"

A Styx cocoon opened, and the Yinma Demon Lord sitting inside stood up and reported to the Thunder-Slaying Demon King: "The Immortal Realm's lackeys have shown themselves. They have begun to send out pseudo-immortals and true immortals to strike at those vassal ants that their subordinates have cultivated and won over in the Xuan Tian Realm."

The Yinma Demon Lord's avatar in the Xuan Tian Realm has meticulously planned everything. Now is the perfect time to reap the rewards.

"Hmph, those idiots in the Immortal Realm have no self-control; they're completely unaware that they've already fallen into our rhythm."

The Thunder Demon King sneered, "Very well, now they are in the light, and we are in the dark."

"Lord of the Domain, those lackeys of the Immortal Realm are quite clever. Their main base is a small world in the void, and they haven't shown themselves for a long time. That's why I've been searching for them but haven't been able to find any trace of them. What do you think? Should we just destroy that small world?"

The Demon Lord Yinma had a plan to capture the leader first.

Now that we've forced the other party to reveal themselves...

Why not just charge straight at the enemy's base first?

He was already tired of petty squabbles. This time, he was going to recruit high-level combat power from the Xuan Tian Realm, including all the Demon Lords of the Blazing Rain Demon Domain and several Demon Generals with the potential to become Venerables!

With such a formidable lineup, are they really going to the Xuan Tian Realm to deal with mere pseudo-immortals and true immortals? No way.

Killing ants and then moving a mountain to smash them down—anyone who does that is out of their mind.

"Hmm, your idea is very much to my liking."

The Thunder Demon King thought so too.

If you're going to throw a heavy punch, you can't hit cotton; you have to hit something solid!

"But we can't ignore the Heavenly Dao rules of the Xuantian Realm. Those above the Demon General level can't stay in the Xuantian Realm for long, or they'll be struck by lightning. Have you all made preparations to avoid it?"

The Heavenly Dao rules of the Xuantian Realm are extremely strict.

Even demon kings and demon emperors died under the heavenly lightning back then.

Therefore, to enter the Xuan Tian Realm, one must be prepared to flexibly circumvent the rules. For example, one could forcibly suppress one's cultivation to the very edge and then unlock it at a crucial moment; or one could simply use some supreme treasure to set up a domain, temporarily avoiding the rules of the Heavenly Dao. There are only these two methods. Currently, no one has come up with a third one.

But either way, the cost is very high.

Using a supreme treasure to circumvent the rules of Heaven means that the treasure itself will have to withstand the crushing force of the rules of Heaven and the oppressive power of all the strong beings within the domain. Over time, it will completely collapse and eventually become unusable.

Suppressing or even temporarily dissipating one's cultivation by consuming certain pills is extremely harmful to the cultivator. These pills only have a temporary effect and contain four or five parts of potent poison. Consuming too many may result in the permanent loss of a portion of one's cultivation, making it a losing proposition.

However, the rules of Heaven must be avoided.

If you don't avoid it, Heaven will make you obedient in your next life.

"Alliance Leader, please rest assured, we have all taken the 'Demon Transformation Gu Pill'. As soon as we enter the Xuan Tian Realm, we will immediately refine the medicinal power and suppress our cultivation to the 'Peak of Heavenly Demon'!"

"This pill's effects will last for a full month. During this time, I have already made plans to use the 'Shadow of the Demon Realm' to set up a domain in the Xuan Tian Realm that circumvents the rules of the Heavenly Dao, just in case."

Seeing that he had made thorough preparations, the Thunder Demon King nodded with satisfaction.

As a subordinate, Yinma Demon Lord is quite outstanding. He is meticulous and thorough in his work, and is especially good at planning and strategizing. He is definitely a guy who can fight and scheme. Compared to his predecessor, Yuhai Demon Lord, Shelei Demon King now prefers Yinma Demon Lord with his Malou face and Malou figure.

"How are the preparations for the Styx Cocoon going?"

"It can be crossed at any time."

"Then let's cross over there. I need to report to the three great demon lords of the Demon Tower. I hope they won't disappoint me."

The Thunder Demon King's eyes gleamed with ambition.

"As ordered!"

The Demon Lord Yinma accepted the order and immediately made a hand seal, causing the Styx Cocoon to close once more. This time, however, all the Styx Cocoons began to emit blood-red demonic smoke. Under the gaze of the Thunder-Slaying Demon King, all the Styx Cocoons rapidly dried up and shrank, and even the powerful figures from the Blazing Rain Demon Realm sitting inside were slowly dissolving!

Three or four hours later.

All the Styx cocoons withered and died completely, then shattered, and the figures sitting inside them all disappeared!

The Thunder Demon King immediately set off for the Most Demonic Tower!
