In my twilight years of cultivating, I became a Supreme Daoist of the Longevity Path-Chapter 987

Chapter 987: 395: Deep into the Demon’s Lair!

Solitary Control of Prince_2 Chapter 987: 395: Deep into the Demon’s Lair!

Solitary Control of Prince_2 Chen Dengming was not in a hurry.

With that “Agreed!” he only needed to demonstrate the corresponding strengths to establish camaraderie.

Asking the other party to refine a magic artifact would naturally be easy.

Supreme Elder Mo Jiazheng of Shu Sword Pavilion nodded and said, “Since Sect Leader Chen is capable, we must not delay.

Let’s set off immediately and scout ahead.”

“Good!”

…

...

The group traveled the first half of the journey by Spirit Boat, covering nearly ten thousand miles within half a day.

For the latter half, they dispersed after storing the Spirit Boat, each entering the territory of the Western Region separately.

Fortunately, the Demon Lord of Different Domain had already fled the Four Regions, and there was no longer the Incense Faith Power of the Demon Lord covering all directions, monitoring and intimidating.

After Chen Dengming and the others entered the Western Region, they did not attract any cultivator’s attention and traveled swiftly through the Linggang Wind Layer, rapidly approaching the Nightmare Demon Kingdom.

It was only when they reached the territory of the Nightmare Demon Kingdom that they gradually began to encounter some obstacles.

Several Foundation Establishment Stage demonic beasts were patrolling in the Linggang Wind Layer, and below them were moving Floating Islands arranged in continuous frontier warning formations, manned by Golden Core cultivators and demon generals.

However, for cultivators like Chen Dengming at the Nascent Soul or Nascent Soul Transformation levels, such a level of border defense was hardly a threat.

Chen Dengming swiftly crossed the frontier of the Nightmare Demon Kingdom using the Qi Escaping Skill and continued deeper.

It was nearing night when the group finally arrived one by one at a major border city of the Nightmare Kingdom and agreed to meet there.

This area was clearly important to the demon cultivators of the Nightmare Kingdom.

From all directions, cultivators and demons kept flying into the city at night, clearly treating this border city as a temporary resting place and a transit station.

In the city, various supplies could be traded in the markets by demon cultivators and demons, each getting what they needed.

However, in the nearby forests around the city, many reprehensible acts were occurring.

There, vines hung high, thorns covered the ground, and from shadowy places, ferocious animal roars and human screams could occasionally be heard, creating chaotic scenes of humans and beasts living together, where humans’ status was even lower than that of beasts.

Many oddly-shaped demons enslaved human cultivators in the forests, forcing them to build distinctly different beast nests, refine magic artifacts, and create talismans and charms.

Those cultivators who were not adept at refining or creating drawings suffered terribly, confined like pigs and dogs in structures built by cultivators.

Male cultivators became breeding tools for female demons.

Female cultivators became birthing tools for male demons.

A fate worse than death.

These forests were truly twisted worlds of demons.

Witnessing such a tragic scene, everyone who gathered together was grim-faced.

Chen Dengming frowned deeply.

This situation in the Nightmare Kingdom was utterly inverted; it was humans who were caged by demons, turned into objects of enslavement.

Qiao Zhaoxian said coldly, “There is reincarnation in Heavenly Dao, these beasts deserve to die!”

The Seven-eyed True Monarch shook his head and gave a wry smile.

If one talks about reincarnation, there was a time when humans domesticated wild animals as poultry and livestock for slaughter.

Now that the beasts have turned into stronger demons and are farming humans for slaughter, it seems like a cycle of its own.

Bai Zhi frowned and, observing from a distance the many demon cultivators who ignored the situation towards the forests, transmitted her voice, “Do these cultivators have no trace of humanity left?

To watch so many fellow beings become slaves or even food for demons, yet still able to laugh and chat carelessly, are they not afraid that one day they might fall and end up as the same slaves and meal for demons?”

Mo Jiazheng, understanding that Bai Zhi, who came from the Four Oceans, did not fully grasp the situation, sighed inwardly, “This is precisely the cruel survival law of demon cultivation, the law of the jungle.

In these Demon Countries, powerful demons with noble bloodlines are even more revered than cultivators, and this has become normal to these demon cultivators.

The lower status non-human-shaped offspring of these demons have a status similar to ordinary cultivators.

They enslave and torment captives captured in battles, and no demon cultivators would object…

Even if some demon cultivators are enslaved one day, other demon cultivators would mock them for their inferior strength but would not feel much sympathy.”

Qiao Zhaoxian coldly said, “The reason they are demon cultivators is because their understanding and habits challenge the very limits of human nature, using any means necessary for cultivation.

Even cooperating with demons to gain a good body and bloodline from them, they stop at nothing.

And over the years, this has always been the case.

Rulers like the king of the Nightmare Kingdom and the king of the Mosha Country possess very pure demon bloodlines, which gives them strong combat abilities and longer lifespans.

And stronger combat abilities and lifespans serve as guarantees for maintaining their own power, resources, and status, so demon cultivators indulge in this, with some demon cultivator families even willingly sending their clan females to cohabit with powerful but ugly demons to produce offspring with high-grade demon bloodlines in service to their families!”

“Let’s go.”

Mo Jiazheng frowned and transmitted his voice, “This situation is too common in Demon Countries, let’s not forget our plan.

Even if we cannot stand to see it now, we must endure.

Once the king of the Nightmare Kingdom and the Holy Mother of Beiyin are dealt with, the cultivators of the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance will naturally come here, take over, and change this place!”

“Indeed!”

Chen Dengming quickly recovered his composure and calmed down, “Both the ruler of the Nightmare Kingdom and the Holy Mother of Beiyin are top-tier experts in manipulating spirits.

Keep your emotions stable, and don’t give the enemy cultivators any opportunities.”

“Let’s go!”

The group once again set out, each using their own techniques.

…

After nearly half a day, it was the afternoon of the next day.

The group finally managed to silently avoid many hidden posts and formations and reached the outer city of the capital of the Nightmare Kingdom.
