Chapter 456: Chapter 455: May I Borrow Your Heads for a While?

Several days later.

Thousand Saints Mountain.

This place is the "Holy Land" of the Demon Race in the Southern Wilderness Realm.

It is also the stronghold of the Demon Race in the Southern Wilderness Realm.

Here, not only do numerous fifth-tier late-stage Demon Emperors linger year-round.

Moreover, a top-tier fifth-level Defense Array is set up around the Thousand Saints Mountain.

At this moment, inside a majestic palace on this Thousand Saints Mountain.

The atmosphere was distinctly heavy.

Many Demon Emperors, who had taken human form, sat within.

In almost every eye, there was confusion, puzzlement, and a hint of seriousness.

The reason is simple.

It is because a few days ago, the Soul Tokens of the Mountain-moving Ape Emperor, Green Phoenix Fire Emperor, and Ink Flood Dragon Emperor shattered.

As we know, the Demon Emperors are the pinnacle combat power in the Southern Wilderness Realm today.

They really cannot comprehend what kind of power could make the three of them fall together in an instant.

Yes.

From the state of the shattered Soul Tokens as known to them.

The three Demon Emperors fell at almost the same time.

This problem is quite serious.

Bear in mind, the Mountain-moving Ape Emperor, Green Phoenix Fire Emperor, and Ink Flood Dragon Emperor are not newly promoted Demon Emperors.

If we speak only of power, not counting Spiritual Treasures, each of their strengths is above that of the Venerable Yanfa of the Demonstration Sect.

Yet, these three Demon Emperors fell almost simultaneously.

What on earth is happening?

Could it be the doing of the Venerable Yanfa of the Demonstration Sect?

But how is that possible?

If that fellow truly had the means, he wouldn’t have waited until now to use such power.

Therefore, the more likely scenario is that external forces were involved.

Or, perhaps, the three of them encountered some unforeseen incident?

But in this Southern Wilderness Realm, what unforeseen event or change could simultaneously threaten the lives of three Demon Emperors?

This question has troubled every Demon Emperor present for a long time.

Until now, these Demon Emperors still do not know the true reason for the fall of the Mountain-moving Ape Emperor and the others.

"Everyone..."

Just then, seated at the head of the Demon Emperors, a middle-aged man with a rather dignified face finally broke the heavy atmosphere in the hall.

This man is also the most senior and highest in cultivation among the Demon Emperors.

He is named the Thunder Mountain Demon Emperor, whose true form is an actual Thunder Mountain, and his realm is nearing the fifth-tier late-stage.

He spoke up, "Right now, we are making meaningless guesses here, which are not very helpful.

The best way is to personally go to the Demonstration Sect and investigate the situation.

If there is any unexpected change, we can prepare in advance.

What do you think?"

"Brother Thunder Mountain, while what you say is reasonable, the problem lies in who among us will go to investigate the Demonstration Sect?"

The speaker was a richly adorned beautiful lady.

She is known as the Thousand-legged Demon Emperor, and she holds significant influence among the assembled demons.

The other Demon Emperors also nodded in response to her words.

"Indeed, Brother Thunder Mountain, we understand your suggestion.

But the issue is, who among us is willing to take the risk to approach the place where Brother Mountain-moving and the others fell?

Or, Brother Thunder Mountain, are you willing to take the lead and head to the Demonstration Sect for investigation?"

Another tall and thin man spoke.

This person is named the Giant Strength Demon Emperor, an Earth Profound Bull who attained the path.

His words immediately drew agreement from some other Demon Emperors present.

This made the eyes of the Thunder Mountain Demon Emperor, which faintly flickered with terrifying lightning.

Just as he was about to speak again, a sudden voice unexpectedly resonated in the ears of every Demon Emperor present.

"I think you should all stay put and just obediently remain here."

"Hmm...?"

Upon hearing this sudden voice, every Demon Emperor present froze in shock.

But the next moment, they all looked as if they had seen a ghost, turning their gaze uniformly towards the center of the hall where they were.

There.

A man dressed in a dark-colored robe, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, standing tall like a banished immortal, stood there quietly, smiling at everyone.

Even though the expression on his face was smiling.

At this moment, everyone present involuntarily felt a chill rise in their hearts.

Who on earth is this person?

Most importantly, how did he get in?

Why, before this, did neither they nor the entire array of the Thousand Saints Mountain have any reaction?

This was what puzzled them the most and even made them feel a chill in their hearts.

Because they all knew that within this Thousand Saints Mountain, there is a top-tier fifth-level array in place.

Even a Divinity Transformation Great Venerable or fifth-tier Great Demon Emperor could not possibly break in.

Let alone someone like him who could quietly and abruptly arrive at the palace where they were.

That was almost impossible to happen.

But now. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

This improbable event had happened.

How could this series of Demon Emperors remain calm?

Could it be that the fall of the Mountain-moving Ape Emperor, Green Phoenix Fire Emperor, and Ink Flood Dragon Emperor is connected to this person?

With this thought, the hearts of all the Demon Emperors, including the Thunder Mountain Demon Emperor, turned extremely tense.

They were not inexperienced novices in the Cultivation Realm and understood exactly what the appearance of Ji Haoyuan signified.

Finally, it was the Thunder Mountain Demon Emperor who calmed down first.

He took a deep breath and with utmost seriousness looked at Ji Haoyuan and said:

"Your Excellency, may I know what brings you to our Demon Race’s Thousand Saints Mountain?

If there is anything we can assist you with, we will not refuse."

"Is that so?"

Ji Haoyuan turned his gaze to the Thunder Mountain Demon Emperor and suddenly let out a chuckle.

"Well, that’s just perfect.

Actually, I didn’t come for any significant matter—just wanted to borrow your esteemed heads.

You shouldn’t refuse, or reject, right?"

As his words fell, the expressions of Thunder Mountain Demon Emperor, Thousand-legged Demon Emperor, and Giant Strength Demon Emperor all drastically changed.

Because at that very instant, they were horrified to discover that their bodies, Magical Power, and even the Magical Treasures they possessed were all tightly bound!

"How... How could this be?"

The hearts of Thunder Mountain Demon Emperor and the others were thrown into turmoil.

They couldn’t understand or imagine.

What kind of power did Ji Haoyuan in front of them wield to possess such terrifying might?

"Friend, your kind has a saying, ’A friend from afar brings delight’, your visit to our Demon Race’s Thousand Saints Mountain is an honor for our race."

At this moment, several formidable aura figures suddenly appeared in the palace.

"But, for our sake, could you please retract your divine techniques and temporarily spare these young ones?

If they have offended you previously, we old folks will not harbor them; we will give you a satisfactory account.

Would that be alright?"
