Chapter 244: Here, I Am the King!
Chapter 244: Here, I Am the King!"Reporting to you, senior, it's absolutely true!"
"Not long ago, that corpse descended from the chaos into the Divine Realm, triggering a massive war throughout the Divine Realm!"
"This battle mobilized almost all major forces across the entire Divine Realm, but for some unknown reason, it suddenly ceased!"
One of the Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race members replied.
"What kind of powerful being's corpse is it?"
The Primordial Demon's eyes gleamed with intense light.
"Although we didn't observe it up close, judging by the pressure emanating from the corpse, the being should have surpassed the World-Origin Realm!"
At this moment, another Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race member stepped forward.
He was different from ordinary members of his race.
His body was covered in thick, coarse hairs, and at the tips of those hairs grew tiny faces of various young creatures.Some resembled humans, some looked like members of the Demon Race, and there were even those resembling the Demon Race...
"A royal member of the Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race?"
The Primordial Demon narrowed his eyes.
When this being appeared,
the evil energy within him was instinctively suppressed?
It was like a slave meeting their master, feeling instinctive fear.
This immediately irritated the Primordial Demon.
Being bullied in the Mortal Realm was one thing, but did he have to endure this discomfort here too?
"Since you know I'm royalty, why aren't you showing respect?"
The figure stood there,
the hairs on his body swaying like eerie tentacles,
the creature faces at their tips opening their eyes one after another,
all staring menacingly at the Primordial Demon.
"Are we of the same race?"
The Primordial Demon asked.
"No!"
"Since we're not, why should I show you respect?"
"But you carry our race's evil energy!"
"So what? My power surpasses yours. Here, I am the king! Don't talk to me about royalty—here, I am the royalty!"
"From now on, when you see me, you must bow and show respect. Understood?"
The Primordial Demon suddenly appeared beside the other being,
grabbing his neck with one hand,
pressing his face filled with evil energy and demonic aura close to the other's face, baring his teeth as he spoke in a deep voice.
At this moment, he was the very embodiment of an evil demon!
"You... you dare disrespect me, your emperor?"
Tailuozi, held in the Primordial Demon's grasp, struggled violently,
but unfortunately, he was firmly gripped,
unable to move.
Thump!
The Primordial Demon threw Tailuozi flying,
then stepped on his chest, looking down with contempt. "From now on, when you see me, you must show respect. Understood?"
If absorbing too much evil energy at this point wouldn't cause an imbalance between the evil and demonic energies within him, he would have long since devoured these creatures to enhance his power,
instead of wasting time talking nonsense with them here.
Seeing the killing intent in the other's eyes,
Tailuozi felt fear.
Although he was royalty,
the other's power far exceeded his own. To survive, he could only nod in agreement.
"Good, I like obedient people!"
"Now, tell me the specific details about that corpse. And what does 'surpassing the World-Origin Realm' mean?"
......
After a long time,
the Primordial Demon listened, utterly stunned.
He had thought the World-Origin Realm was the pinnacle of power,
never imagining there were several major realms above it!
The Primordial Demon frowned deeply.
If that was the case,
his perspective shouldn't be so narrow!
"Given my current situation, devouring living beings is undoubtedly the fastest way to increase my power!"
This function of the evil energy was truly useful,
and it would be even better if he possessed the royal bloodline of the Evil Race.
Not only could they devour the cultivation of living beings,
but they could also absorb their divine abilities!
The Primordial Demon licked his lips,
thinking to himself that when the time was ripe, he would devour all these Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race members, including the royalty.
But for now,
"A corpse that surpasses the World-Origin Realm?"
"If I can devour it, my power will surely increase dramatically. When that time comes... Long Yuan, your death awaits!"
The Primordial Demon clenched his fists in anger.
He would repay the humiliation he suffered tenfold, a hundredfold!
Then the Primordial Demon began to focus on healing his injuries.
When his wounds were fully recovered,
it would be time to go and devour that corpse!
......
Divine Realm, Cang Mountain.
Originally, this was a majestic, sky-piercing peak,
but now the mountain had vanished,
transformed into a massive sinkhole!
A huge silver translucent barrier enveloped the entire enormous sinkhole.
This was a barrier designed to conceal energy signatures,
created by a powerhouse at the peak of the World-Creation Realm.
Yet it couldn't completely contain the terrifying aura leaking from within the sinkhole.
Inside the sinkhole,
a blood-stained corpse lay there.
"Terrifying!"
"What level of cultivation did this corpse possess in life? Even after death, the aura emanating from it remains so horrifying!"
"This aura feels far more dreadful than even God Pan from back then!"
Around the barrier,
powerhouses from various top forces of the Divine Realm sat cross-legged.
The corpse was too astonishing,
so all the supreme forces of the Divine Realm had sent their experts to guard it together,
fearing that the opportunities within the corpse might be obtained by others.
Yet they were helpless against this corpse.
The pressure radiating from it was too terrifying—
they didn't dare approach!
So they could only wait,
waiting for the time when the pressure from the corpse completely dissipates before they could explore it.
"So it seems there are other living beings beyond our world!"
A powerhouse from the Pan God Temple remarked with folded arms, sighing with emotion.
He was bare-chested,
his solid muscles bulging prominently,
gleaming with a golden hue.
On his back, he carried a massive black axe—
a divine artifact forged in imitation of God Pan's Heaven-Splitting Axe.
"Isn't that stating the obvious? If there were no other living beings, what would the Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race be?"
An old man from the Heavenly Artifice Pavilion sneered.
Wasn't this something already proven long ago?
Array disks floated around him.
The Heavenly Artifice Pavilion specialized in formations.
Although their individual combat strength wasn't particularly high,
if all the array disks around them unleashed their full power, few at their level could withstand them!
"Hmph, how can those bizarre creatures of the Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race compare to this corpse? They're just filthy things born from some obscure corner!"
Qin Chou from the Pan God Temple coldly snorted.
The old man from the Heavenly Artifice Pavilion's eyes flickered, but he didn't respond.
"Elder Li Gang, has Senior Zhuang's injuries not recovered yet?"
Someone then asked the old man from the Heavenly Artifice Pavilion.
"No, they keep fluctuating. The evil energy is extremely difficult to dispel!"
"Right now, several elders are working together to suppress that evil energy. Otherwise, it might very well go out of control!"
Li Gang narrowed his eyes and sighed.
"Ah, back then, Senior Zhuang crossed the Two Realms Mountain alone to gather intelligence on the Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race. Who would have thought he'd suffer such a calamity!"
"The heavens grant him immense fortune;
he will surely overcome this trial!"
"Yes, if there's anything we can do to help, we will not hesitate to offer our assistance!"
The people around spoke up one after another.
"Thank you for your concern. Although the evil energy is strange, with several elders jointly suppressing it, it probably won't cause major trouble. If it truly becomes necessary, we will certainly ask for your help!"
A powerhouse from the Pan God Temple remarked with folded arms, sighing with emotion.
Now, these people gathered together, chatting and laughing, showed no sign of being mortal enemies who had previously fought desperately over the corpse.
Their current goal was singular:
to guard this corpse,
and to remain vigilant against the Primordial Demon and that divine tower!
Especially the Primordial Demon.
Having successfully fused with the evil energy, he possessed the abilities of the Extra-Terrestrial Evil Race.
If he learned of this corpse's existence, he would undoubtedly be unable to resist the urge to devour it to enhance his power!
