Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 944 - 421: Demon Emperor City, Meeting Zhang Yuan (Thanks to Purple Night V Star Soul for the reward)_2

And there was also a token from Elder Bai that ensured nothing would go wrong this time.

Lin Jing arrived at Demon Emperor City and flew directly toward the city gate.

After paying a supreme grade Spirit Stone, Lin Jing entered the city of the Demon Emperor.

The entire city was enveloped by a formation, the Spiritual Energy was extremely dense inside; it was actually a huge Spirit Gathering Array.

Walking inside, Lin Jing felt as though he was in one of the immortal cities of the Eastern Spirit Realm.

The only difference was that there were few people around, even the number of shops in the city was limited.

From the time Lin Jing had entered the Demon Emperor City, he had seen no more than twenty people. Adding the Demon Cultivators inside the buildings along the streets, there were still fewer than forty people.

Entering the void was difficult, as it required at least the cultivation level of the Transcendence Tribulation Stage; therefore, both Human Cultivators and Demon Cultivators in the city possessed very high cultivation levels.

The lowest among them was a Demon Cultivator in the late stages of Tribulation.

Subsequently...

Lin Jing continued walking deeper into the city until he reached the grand palace at the heart of Demon Emperor City called the Demon Emperor Palace.

Upon arriving at the Demon Emperor Palace, Lin Jing walked straight up to a Demon Cultivator and clasped his hands, saying, "Fellow fellow from the Demon Clan, I am Lin Jing from the Xuanqing Realm’s Elixir Alliance. I would like to request an audience with the Demon Emperor, please pass on my request."

The Demon Cultivator glanced at Lin Jing, then frowned slightly and said, "You wish to request an audience with the Demon Emperor?"

"Does the Demon Emperor grant audiences at your whim?"

The Demon Cultivator spoke rudely, but it was indeed a fact. The female Demon Emperor, with her outstanding combat power and renowned reputation, was not someone anyone could simply meet.

Lin Jing understood this well and did not dispute it; instead, he took out the token that Elder Bai had given him and handed it over, continuing, "Previously, our Elixir Alliance’s Elder Bai had discussed matters with the Demon Emperor. He cannot come now and has sent me to meet the Demon Emperor in his stead."

The Mahayana Realm Demon Cultivator listened to Lin Jing’s words and inspected the token handed over.

Upon seeing the token, the Demon Cultivator paused, then respectfully took the token from Lin Jing and said, "Please wait a moment..."

After speaking, the Demon Cultivator took the token and walked into the palace hall.

After the Demon Cultivator had gone inside, he soon came back out and approached Lin Jing, saying respectfully, "This way, my friend..."

Saying so, the Demon Cultivator led the way to the entrance of the grand palace.

The Demon Emperor Palace was extraordinarily grandiose; the distance from the front of the palace to the entrance was several hundred zhang.

Moreover, at the entrance of the grand hall, two Demon Cultivators stood guard. Lin Jing was escorted by one of them to the entrance.

Then...

That Demon Cultivator handed Lin Jing over to another at the entrance of the grand hall, who then led Lin Jing inside.

The inside of the grand hall was very spacious; apart from a middle-aged man in the center, there was no one else.

Prior to his arrival, Lin Jing had many speculations about what kind of person the female Demon Emperor might be, and what she might look like...

But now, inside the hall, there was only a middle-aged man.

When Lin Jing walked in, the man also turned to look.

The man had a resolute look and a formidable aura; he looked very dominating and was holding the token that Lin Jing had handed over earlier.

If one were to judge by the aura of the man, Lin Jing could easily mistake him for the Demon Emperor.

But he was a man.

And the Demon Emperor was a female.

Clearly, he was not the female Demon Emperor.

Soon...

The man before Lin Jing spoke, "Heavenly Peng, the person has been brought here."

The man nodded and then said, "All right..."

"You may go."

"Yes!" the Demon Cultivator replied and then withdrew.

From their brief exchange, Lin Jing realized this man was Heavenly Peng, one under the female Demon Emperor’s command.

After the Demon Cultivator had left, Heavenly Peng carefully sized up Lin Jing and then narrowed his eyes slightly, asking, "Was it your Elixir Alliance’s Elder Bai who sent you to discuss that matter with the Demon Emperor?"

As he spoke, his imposing aura pressed down on Lin Jing.

Facing the pressure of Heavenly Peng’s aura, Lin Jing was unfazed and looked at him, nodding, then directly said, "Yes, Heavenly Peng!"

"Due to some unexpected changes, Elder Bai especially asked me to find the Demon Emperor and relay some information regarding the barriers of the Immortal Realm."

Heavenly Peng had not specified the matter clearly while simultaneously pressing down with his aura—a clear test.

To see if he was truly the person arranged by Elder Bai.

Consequently, Lin Jing revealed some key information from the last conversation between Elder Bai and the Demon Emperor, following what Heavenly Peng had said,

Upon hearing this, Heavenly Peng’s demeanor suddenly became reserved, and he then gave Lin Jing a token, saying,

"The Demon Emperor is not here."

"Come with me…"

"I’ll take you to meet the Demon Emperor."

"Thank you, Peng King!"

Afterwards…

Lin Jing followed Heavenly Peng, passing through the grand hall of the Demon Emperor Palace, toward the back of the palace.

Inside the Demon Emperor Palace, there were various palaces and towers, all protected by different formations, their purposes unknown.

The two did not enter any of the palaces or towers, but directly passed through these structures to the innermost part of the Demon Emperor Palace.

At the innermost part of the palace was a not-so-small garden, which was filled with flowers, trees, mountains, and flowing water, resembling the back mountain of a sect within the realms.

In the middle of that garden was a spatial formation, standing there in the void.

However, the interior of the spatial formation was obscured by white mist, making it impossible to see anything inside.

Upon arriving in the courtyard, Heavenly Peng stopped in front of the spatial formation and cupped his hands towards the inside, saying,

"Emperor’s Envoy!"

"There has been a change concerning the barriers of the Immortal Realm, Elder Bai of the Elixir Alliance from Xuanqing Realm has sent someone specifically to convey information about the Immortal Realm barriers."

After Heavenly Peng’s voice fell, a voice came from inside:

"Let him in!"

Hearing this voice, Lin Jing was momentarily stunned.

Because this voice, he found it somewhat familiar.

"Yes!" Heavenly Peng responded.

After speaking, Heavenly Peng turned to Lin Jing and said,

"You go in, the Emperor’s Envoy will take you to meet the Demon Emperor."

Lin Jing then came to his senses and quickly responded,

"Okay… yes…"

After finishing speaking, Lin Jing approached the spatial formation and then stepped directly into it.

When Lin Jing entered the spatial formation, his vision was immediately enveloped by white mist, and just as he moved forward before he could clearly see the surroundings, a surprised and familiar voice rang in his ears:

"Lin… Lin Jing… Brother Lin…"

"How could it be you?"

The next moment…

The white mist before Lin Jing dispersed, and he could see what was in front of him, especially the surprised and familiar person standing before him…

Zhang Yuan.

Unexpectedly meeting Zhang Yuan here, Lin Jing was also astonished,

"Brother Zhang…"

"How could you be here?"

Zhang Yuan then gave a wry smile and said,

"If we really start speaking about it, it would be a long story…"

But at this point, Zhang Yuan waved his hand,

"Forget about that… let’s not talk about this now…"

"You haven’t met Elder Bai and Elder Yu yet, right?"

"The Demon Emperor is currently cultivating, it might take some time before his cultivation is complete, I will now take you to meet Elder Bai and Elder Yu."

As Zhang Yuan finished speaking, Lin Jing quickly asked,

"Just now I heard the Peng King call you ’Emperor’s Envoy,’ and all three of you are here..."

"Could the Demon Emperor…"

"Be Qing Ling?"

Zhang Yuan nodded after hearing this,

"You could say yes… Or no…"

"In any case, this matter is complicated, let us wait to meet Elder Bai and Elder Yu, and have them explain it to you."

Lin Jing was taken aback, sensing from Zhang Yuan’s words that something unexpected had happened.

However…

Now was not the time to ask more; it was better to first meet Elder Bai and Elder Yu, and hear their explanation.

Thereafter, Lin Jing nodded, saying,

"Alright…"

"Let’s first meet Elder Bai and Elder Yu…"
