Chapter 1866: Chapter 1952: Resurrection of the Demon Path Sovereign (Part 4)

Fifteen minutes earlier, deep in the Secret Realm, after Zhao Han and the Fire Qilin left, the Haotian Tower appeared outside the palace.

The Haotian Tower surveyed the palace, then its body erupted with brilliance, as if facing a formidable enemy.

At the same moment, the stone statue within the hall became even more silent, feeling no aura at all.

The Haotian Tower instantly entered the hall, scanned the statue, and immediately unleashed its power to lock the statue in place.

"A Realm Master level powerhouse of Haotian Realm, Mo Qing from the Demon King Palace fell in the ultimate battle back then, yet I didn’t expect he would hide in the small Four Extremes World preparing to make a comeback. Haha, you Demon King Palace surely have deep calculations."

Disdain flashed through the voice of Haotian Tower, and its power continuously aimed at the statue, seemingly seizing something.

"Who are you? You actually know my identity!" The Divine Soul on the statue was shocked, massively swaying.

This statue previously conversed with Zhao Han and the Fire Qilin, not out of genuine fear, but because its Divine Soul sensed a strong aura approaching, purposefully hiding to avoid detection.

He hadn’t expected that this Small Tower would effortlessly find him.

"I not only know your identity but also what your Demon King Palace intends to do. You practiced the Netherworld Demon Technique back then, causing a battle between the Netherworld Palace and Demon King Palace that shook the entire Haotian World, ending with your downfall. Yet, thousands of years later, you’re still plotting those past events."

Haotian Tower laughed coldly: "The Netherworld Demon Technique, you utilize the Netherworld Power and Demon Power of the Haotian Realm, you’re too greedy."

The forces erupted from the statue began to counteract Haotian Tower’s power, forming a balance between the two.

The entire palace shook violently due to the confrontation between these forces, shattering into pieces.

"You... who are you, so well informed about past events? Could it be you hail from the Netherworld Palace? Alas, do you think you can stop me?"

The statue emitted a smug laugh, "Suppressing the Netherworld River, refining the purest Demonic Qi of the Haotian Demon Clan, forming Netherworld Demonic Energy, I’ve awaited thirty thousand years for today to finally restore my place as the first in the Demon King Palace. You’re aware of everything, but your power can’t stop it."

"Is that so?"

The Haotian Tower didn’t anger at his words; instead, another power began to erupt from its body.

This power was unlike any it had ever released.

"I know you’ve resurrected with considerable strength, but people from Haotian Realm, unlike those Heavenly People Clan, are suppressed upon entering this world. Now that we’re evenly matched, I can evolve the outline of your power and seize it!"

"The Demon King Palace truly spares no expense, even splitting the Netherworld Demon Sky Map for you. Are you not afraid that by the time you return, the palace has lost its power in Haotian Realm? Their madness is evident."

Mysterious power from Haotian Tower’s body spawned ripples, recomposing between the two to form a phantom identical to the statue, yet appearing more tangible.

"Too much deception! What kind of Treasure are you to possess such power?"

The statue’s voice showed horror, "Tower, don’t attack me. If you’re willing to submit, I’ll lead you in conquering the entire Haotian Realm, even the Nine Heavens and Ten Realms. Don’t you aspire to the pinnacle?"

"If you destroy me today, you can’t stop the Netherworld Demonic Energy. This world will become a Death Realm, and who knows how many ages it will take to recover, your friends in this world will all perish due to you."

The outline power turned phantasm, mirroring him, was being attacked by Haotian Tower, weakening his true form.

He was striving to make Haotian Tower abandon its attack.

"Once I absorb this Netherworld Demonic Energy today, my Netherworld Demon Technique will be perfected directly. Then, not just this small world, even if I return to Haotian Realm, I’ll reign, with time, ruling Haotian Realm, turning Nine Heavens and Ten Realms into our battlefield."

The statue’s voice trembled with excitement, offering the most tempting promise to Haotian Tower: "Then, you’ll be the strongest Treasure under my command, acquiring supreme power as I do."

"Finished speaking? Then shut up, go die obediently, let me seize your source power of Haotian Realm."

Haotian Tower’s voice dripped with sarcasm: "Lead me in pursuit of supreme power as you did with the Netherworld Demon Sky Map, using its destruction at crucial moments to exchange for your return to Haotian Realm?"

Haotian Tower’s voice turned frantic, "The Netherworld Demon Sky Map once fell for your trick, how could I do the same?"

A moment later, Haotian Tower emitted a faint laugh: "Though you fell, becoming a stone statue, the power isn’t scarce, is it used for merging Netherworld Demonic Energy, restoring Netherworld Demon Technique’s power? Still retained, isn’t acquiring power or life and death more important?"

"Very good, even my past with the Netherworld Demon Sky Map you know clearly, seems today indeed won’t end well, I can’t recover, then we’ll perish together."

The statue suddenly shook, like an eggshell, starting to peel. In the next second, a figure appeared in place, exuding intense devilish and Netherworld aura.

"Unexpectedly, I fell short today, destroyed by an object. Not a fault of Heaven or man, it was you, this Tower, that hindered my chance to reclaim Haotian Realm, but do you think the Demon King Palace’s long-standing plan can be completely ruined by you?"

Mo Qing’s eyes flashed with coldness: "I still have one last chance."

Upon finishing these words, he unleashed strong power between him and Haotian Tower. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Then, he swiftly vanished into the Void.

"Void Travel?"

Haotian Tower chuckled lightly, disappearing in an instant, chasing after Mo Qing.

Over thousands of years, seeing Haotian Realm’s power again, unexpectedly in such an undying manner, Haotian Tower couldn’t help but bitterly smile.

Tower and figure, constantly converging forces within the Secret Realm’s Void, in the blink of an eye, crossing hundreds of thousands of miles.

Arriving above a Secret Realm, Mo Qing finally paused.

His eyes shone with desire, his current power made it immensely difficult to seize the Netherworld Demonic Energy from the entire Secret Realm, because, in the Four Extremes World, he lacked True Body.

His body now was merely forged by power forcefully.

He had captured the presence of an ant in this realm, whose body was suitable for him, rushing here to claim this ant’s body and then plan his future moves.
