BXBX NOVEL Chapter 679: 340 Demon Saint Palace
Although the Flying Spirit Platforms in various Spirit Cities are identical, the surrounding environment varies. He vaguely remembered that, in his visions of impending crises from the Lower Realm, apart from those armor-clad Cultivators, he also saw withered trees and dilapidated buildings.
However, in this Demon City, there was not a single withered tree around the Flying Spirit Platform, and the nearby structures were also free of any damage.
According to the information he had gathered over the years, he was sure that the Integrating Cultivator in black armor he saw in his Predict Crisis vision was an Elder from a Spirit City located near the Demon race territory, named Xu Fenghai, who often led his subordinates deep into areas occupied by the Demon race.
If nothing unexpected happened, the Spirit City where Xu Fenghai went to would be the one conquered by the Demon race.
Just as the Transforming Golden Peng who brought him here said, after the Demon Tribe conquered the Spirit City, they moved in, thrived, and grew stronger, whereas the Demon race didn’t know how to develop it and let the Spirit City fall into ruin.
As for other Human Spirit Cities, it was even less likely, because if Xu Fenghai took his subordinates to another Spirit City, it would be impossible to keep it a secret. Similarly, visiting the Demon Tribe would be the same, so the Spirit City of the Demon race became the only possibility.
However, although he had identified the members of the enemy organization related to the Creation Method, Lin Yi had no plans for revenge. His priority was to increase his Cultivation levels; he could make plans later if an opportunity arose.
Hearing Lin Yi’s question, one of the Integration Stage Golden Pengs shook its head and said, “This Flying Spirit Platform can only guide members of the Human race, and within our Demon Tribe, there is already an Ascension Platform for Monster Beasts from the Lower Realm, located in the core area of our tribe. Hence, once Human Cultivation Spiritual Pets ascend, they can’t escape.”
Lin Yi nodded, glanced at White Painting, and said, “Although the Human race and Demon Tribe are in a state of hostility, there’s a saying that a gentleman can be killed but not insulted. Insulting someone is one of the most despicable methods.”
The Integration Stage Golden Peng spoke again, “Indeed, our Golden Peng Clan also made a proposal to spare these ascending Human Cultivation Spiritual Pets. The number of Monster Beasts ascending from the Lower Realm is already few, not to mention Human Spiritual Pets, so sparing them wouldn’t affect the situation in the slightest.”
“Perhaps we could even earn the gratitude of some Human Cultivators, but this proposal was vetoed by a few other Demon Clans.”
Lin Yi smiled faintly and didn’t say anything. Among the individuals of the Demon race below, there might be some benevolent ones, but among The Five Major Demon Clans, none would actually do such a thing. It’s all talk and shouldn’t be taken seriously.
Feeling as though Lin Yi saw through his words, the Integration Stage Golden Peng gave an embarrassed cough and said, “Cough, let’s quickly make our way to the Demon Saint Palace. The ancestor may be getting impatient.”
Following the two Integration Stage Golden Pengs, Lin Yi arrived at the Demon Saint Palace, located at the very center of the city. It seemed to have been built on the foundations of the former City Lord Mansion, making this Demon Saint Palace even more elevated, with long stairs leading upwards, exuding a significant presence.
In front of the Demon Saint Palace, at the bottom of the stairs, stood a golden Great Peng Statue, looking towards the direction of the Human race.
The two Integration Stage Golden Pengs then proudly said, “Long Ao friend, this is our Golden Peng Clan’s holy ancestor, Jin Yue, and the Demon Saint of the whole Demon Tribe. Thousands of years ago, it was under his leadership that our clan’s strength significantly grew, and we conquered two Human Spirit Cities, earning him the title of holy ancestor of the Demon Tribe.”
“After conquering the two Spirit Cities, as if he sensed something, he went into seclusion to meditate, and, in the end, succeeded in Crossing Tribulation and ascended to the Immortal Realm. I wonder, Long Ao friend, have you ever seen the holy ancestor?”
Lin Yi slowly floated in front of this holy ancestor, bowed with cupped fists as a sign of respect, and then said slowly, “I didn’t descend from the Immortal Realm, so naturally, I have never met him.”
“Hahaha, Long Ao friend, we understand,” both Integration Stage Golden Pengs laughed, suggesting descending from the Immortal Realm was simply for cultivation experience, and one naturally wouldn’t freely reveal their origins.
However, based on the movements of this friend Long Ao, they had already guessed his identity.
Afterward, the group flew up the long stairs and reached the outside of the Demon Saint Palace. At that moment, some Void Refinement Demon Clans were waiting outside, and judging by the state of their Cultivation levels, they seemed to be the outstanding members of their respective clans.
The two massive doors of the palace, however, were tightly shut, making humanoid figures seem exceedingly small standing below.
Considering the size of these doors, the inside could probably accommodate Demon Clan members of all shapes and sizes.
Lin Yi couldn’t help but smile, thinking that today’s affair wasn’t just about apologizing to him but also about establishing some rules.
If it weren’t for the powerful Immortal Realm background of the Golden Serpent, even if he could display the power of Integration or even Crossing Tribulation, it probably wouldn’t be enough to induce a change in the Demon Tribe.
The two Integration Stage Golden Pengs glanced at the Void Refinement Demon Clan members nearby and directly walked to the doors. They bowed with cupped fists and said with a resounding voice, “Respected ancestors, we have invited friend Long Ao. He is waiting outside the door.”
“Enter.” A grand voice came through, and then the massive doors slowly opened.
At that moment, the two Integration Stage Golden Pengs quickly said to Lin Yi, “Long Ao friend, after conquering the Human Spirit City and establishing the Demon Saint Palace, the great clans of our Demon Tribe established a rule that any Demon Tribe member entering the Demon Saint Palace must enter in their true form, to display the prestige of our Demon Tribe.”
