Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1559 Secrecy, Meeting

The Inner Star Sea, deep within the outer, wild sea.

In the vast and boundless sea, islands are scattered like stars, and countless demonic beasts roam freely, their demonic aura soaring to the heavens.

In the center of this wild and vibrant sea, there is an island that stands out as exceptionally special.

Looking down, the vast island was deathly silent, like a desolate wasteland.

Just then, a series of fierce roars and howls rang out.

But in the distance of the island, two black-scaled demon kings, each with eight enormous tentacles, were jointly besieging and killing a ferocious, enormous fish demon.

Black tentacles slammed down, their thousands of sharp teeth like daggers, piercing the fish demon's hard scales and leaving more bloody holes in its powerful body. The demon's blood splattered onto the sea, causing the mindless fish below to frantically devour it.

"Those two damned beasts!"

The fleeing fish demon was clearly not stupid, constantly roaring and cursing, but it ignored the two tentacle-scaled demon kings chasing it from behind, their demonic eyes filled with ferocity and greed.

Thus, the three early-stage fourth-tier demon kings continued to approach the strange island during their pursuit.

"That is!"

The moment they approached the desolate island, the fish demon clearly sensed something was amiss.

The island ahead was completely devoid of life. This was a wild and untamed sea of ​​demons, where every island was occupied by various monsters.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
Several thick black tentacles attacked again, leaving the fish demon no time to think. If it did not escape quickly, it would be devoured by the two ancient beast bloodline demon kings behind it sooner or later.

The blue scales on its body, stained with demonic blood, lit up again, and a surge of powerful demonic energy poured out. The fish demon swung its tail violently and accelerated its escape from the edge of the island.

In the final moments, it didn't dare choose to pass through the central area of ​​the island.

Two black-armored, scaled demon kings followed closely behind, entering the area of ​​the desolate island.

"not good!"

The fleeing fish demon was suddenly shocked, and its demonic eyes revealed an unprecedented panic. The two black tentacle-scaled demon kings that had been chasing closely also lost their ferocity and greed in their eyes, which were now filled with fear.

Even though the two black tentacle-scaled demon kings were of ancient beast blood and not very intelligent, they instinctively sensed an unprecedented aura of death.

"My scales!"

The fish demon let out a terrified roar, and its dense blue scales, which had been shimmering with light, lost their luster at a visible speed and began to fall off in large swaths.

It was as if it had stumbled into a forbidden zone of life, and the vitality within it began to drain away uncontrollably and frantically.

Only then did the fish demon realize that the seemingly empty surrounding world actually concealed countless tiny gray streams of light, like invisible giant mouths frantically devouring it.

The three demon kings began to frantically try to escape the island's territory, but their movements were slowed down countless times. In the blink of an eye, their demon bodies had been devoured by countless gray streams of light.

"no no!"

The roars gradually faded away, and the area around the island returned to deathly silence.

The three demon kings vanished without a trace.

Just then, a vast gray mist began to erupt from the depths of the island, transforming into a death tidal wave that spread towards the surrounding sea. Wherever it passed, everything withered, and even the countless sea fish beneath the surface were reduced to ashes, turning the surrounding area into a true dead sea.

Amidst the vast gray clouds, torrents of immense death energy coalesced and began to converge toward the center of the island.

"It seems there's still a long way to go before reaching the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage!"

Deep within the underground cave in the center of the island, a figure in a gray robe, sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes, his brows furrowing slightly on his wooden face.

"idiot!"

A sharp, mocking voice rang out.

"I told you long ago, abandon the constraints of so-called identity, race, morality and so on, and you can plunder the life force of all things in heaven and earth. Only in this way can you continue to pursue the Great Dao of Death!"

An old-fashioned gray mask, its mouth slightly open, continuously uttered sarcastic remarks.

"What does it matter if you're human, demon, or even monster? It's just a matter of identity. Only the Great Dao is eternal!"

Faced with this scene, the gray-robed, taciturn young man seemed to have long been accustomed to it, remaining silent with a thoughtful look constantly appearing in his eyes.

"How could I have chosen a piece of trash like you!"

The man in the gray mask exclaimed in exasperation, "What a golden opportunity!"

"In this sealed land, great cultivators cannot appear in the world. As long as you quickly reach the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage, you will be invincible and can freely plunder the life force of all things. Once you reach the realm of a great cultivator, with my assistance, you will still be invincible. Even if those great cultivators emerge, they will all be your prey."

"Innocent people must not be killed indiscriminately!"

A simple sentence revealed a human-like, speechless expression on the gray mask.

"My master!"

"My dearest master!"

"Don't you want to advance to the Great Cultivator realm as soon as possible? Don't you want to enter the vast and true Spirit Realm and roam the heavens and earth?"

"With me here, even if you enter the spirit world, you will be an existence that countless beings look up to."

The next moment, the gray-masked figure spoke with a seductive tone: "Moreover, the legacy left by the Lord is hidden in a corner of the Spirit Realm. As long as you can obtain the Lord's legacy, you can become a near-immortal being, immortal and indestructible!"

"I have my own path of spiritual cultivation!"

The gray-robed, taciturn young man spoke again.

"Useless trash, truly useless trash, causing me to waste my time here with you. If it were back in the day, I would have killed you with a single palm strike."

The gray-masked man, cursing and swearing, transformed into a streak of light and rushed directly into the gray-robed young man's body. The enormous impact caused his figure to slam heavily against the mountain wall behind him.

The next moment, the young man in the gray robe walked out from the broken rocks without caring at all, and continued to sit cross-legged in the same spot with a blank expression.

"If we don't kill indiscriminately, how can we gather the power of death? Although chaos is about to break out in the Inner Star Sea, there are still major top forces holding the fort."

"Demonic cultivator?"

"According to my methods, it's reasonable for me to hide myself as a demonic cultivator!"

"There is a demonic realm within the Eastern Star Profound Sea, a place of countless slaughters, which is just right for my cultivation."
-
Dongxing Xuanhai.

Northern Demon Realm, Luo Xing Islands.

What was once a remote corner of the sea has now become the focus of attention for the entire vast northern demon realm.

People from all the renowned ancient demonic sects flocked to the Luo Xing Islands.

Tweet!
In a corner of the sea, high in the sky, a blood crane, tens of feet tall, spread its wings and transformed into a blood-red afterimage, tearing through the sky.

At that very moment.

A ghost-faced flying boat sped towards them from another direction.

"I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Blood Crane to come in person!"

On the Ghost Face Flying Boat, a gaunt and sinister-looking man laughed loudly.

"You rascal, you've come too?"

On the blood crane, a tall, middle-aged man in a blood-red robe spoke coldly.

"Since we are both going to the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce to offer our congratulations, why don't Fellow Daoist Blood Crane come with me?"

The next moment, the Blood Crane suddenly disintegrated, turning into a blood-red torrent and disappearing. The tall figure in the blood-red robe landed on the Ghost-faced Spirit Boat in an instant.

"Fellow Daoist Blood Crane, is your trip really just to offer congratulations?"

The gaunt, sinister man said meaningfully, “You know perfectly well why I’m asking!” Blood Crane Demon Lord sneered, “Since that Demon Gan Palace is clinging to me so stubbornly, I naturally need to find a way out.”

Great minds think alike!

The gaunt, sinister-looking man revealed a delighted expression: "To be honest, I also intend to take this opportunity to seek entry into the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce."

"It is said that their Hall of Offerings recruits guest elders who are free to come and go, which is perfect for us independent cultivators. Even if it is just a nominal position, it will be of great use to us in the future."

The Blood Crane Demon Lord beside him also nodded deeply.

"Compared to other ancient demonic sects, the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce, as a special force, has very few rules, which makes it a perfect talisman for us!"

"Moreover!" Blood Crane Demon Lord's eyes revealed a hint of awe: "It is said that the guild leader's strength is extremely terrifying. Not only did he easily kill the original Beast Slayer Ancestor, but he also fought two opponents head-on and easily suppressed two late-stage powerhouses of the Holy Sect. He can be said to be one of the strongest people in our Northern Region today."

"Even becoming a guest elder of the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce would be enough to make it easy for various forces to target us."

"more than!"

The gaunt, sinister man said in a low voice, "The Holy Sect experts who appeared back then were no ordinary Supreme Elders; one of them was the Lord of the Earth-Eating Hall!"

"It is said that his strength is close to that of the Grand Elder of the Holy Sect, who is at the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage!"

"Approaching the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage!"

Blood Crane Demon Lord looked shocked: "Doesn't that mean that the strength of that Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce President is comparable to the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage?"

"That's exactly right!"

The gaunt, sinister man said in a deep voice, "If it weren't for that, why would I have traveled so far to come here?"

"Although the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce is currently weak, with its president present, it is destined to become one of the most terrifying forces influencing the Northern Demon Realm. Moreover, this is a perfect opportunity. If the treatment is truly excellent, we can certainly join it."

The headquarters of the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce.

The once vast island shrouded in blood mist is long gone, replaced by the purely mysterious Dark Demon Island.

The magnificent pavilions and halls scattered throughout exude majesty and nobility.

"The Bone Cave - Ancestor Liang Gu has come to offer his congratulations to the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce!"

A colossal tower built of bones descended from the sky, and a towering figure appeared, its withered skin like a thin sheet of paper draped over its massive skeletal body, exuding a chilling and malevolent aura.

"On behalf of the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce, Hei Shan Yun Qi respectfully welcomes Ancestor Liang Gu!"

Heishan Yunqi, who had traveled day and night from the southern region of Dongxing Xuanhai, appeared to greet them with several high-ranking members of the Xuanshi Chamber of Commerce.

"You're too kind, young friends!"

Even though the legendary mysterious guild master did not personally appear to greet him, the Old Ancestor Liang Gu appeared to be very 'easygoing'.

Although both were at the late Nascent Soul stage, their battle back then had already elevated that person's status to the level of the Great Elder of the Demon Food Sect.

He was not yet qualified to be greeted by the other party in person.

"The Hundred-Eyed Palace - Ancestor Wan Tong has arrived."

Just as the great demonic powers in the vast northern demonic realm appeared to offer their congratulations.

Li Xuan, the protagonist of this celebration, was sitting facing another figure in a black hall deep within the forbidden area.

"I've heard that Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi hails from the Vast Yuan Demon Realm?"

The figure on the left is broad-shouldered, with a warm smile on his plump face, resembling an ordinary, kind old man.

"The Grand Elder is right. I myself have cultivated step by step from within the Vast Yuan Demon Realm to where I am today!"

Li Xuan had a faint smile on his face.

His experience of growing step by step within the Vast Demon Realm has already solidified his identity.

No one would question his origins.

From the Golden Core realm to the later Xuan Shi Demon Lord, there are countless battle achievements to prove it.

"What is the purpose of Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi's decision to move the entire Chamber of Commerce to the Northern Demon Realm?"

Li Xuan smiled slightly and said, "The Haoyuan Demon Realm is located in a remote corner and is not suitable for the future development of the Chamber of Commerce!"

"So, Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi intends to betray the Ghost King Sect?"

A profound meaning appeared in the eyes of the Grand Elder of the Demon Food Sect.

"betray?"

Li Xuan chuckled lightly: "The Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce and the Ghost King Sect have always had a cooperative relationship; there has never been any betrayal."

"Besides, people strive for higher positions, and water flows downhill. I naturally cannot continue to share the joys and sorrows with the Ghost King Sect."

"Then aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Ghost King Sect, Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi?" the Grand Elder of the Demon Food Sect continued.

"Does the Grand Elder think I need to be concerned about the threat from the Ghost King Sect right now?"

Li Xuan smiled faintly and asked in return.

"The Ghost King Sect couldn't even suppress a mere Azure Mystic True Monarch from the Eastern Sea. How could they possibly have the right to retaliate against me?"

"A mere Azure Mystic True Monarch!"

The Grand Elder of the Demon Food Sect's lips twitched slightly.

Even though he knew that the person in front of him was quite strong, he couldn't help but think to himself that the person was arrogant and conceited.

He knew all too well how powerful that True Monarch Qingxuan was.

Although he did not personally participate in the battle back then, the other two elders of the Four Symbols Demon Sect were both witnesses.

When the two elders recounted what had happened, they both showed expressions of fear, demonstrating just how terrifying the Azure Profound True Monarch was.

"What is Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi's view on the Northern Demon Realm today?"

"It's still too small!"

Li Xuan said without any politeness, "The revival of the demonic path is the general trend of heaven and earth, and the cultivation world of the Eastern Star Profound Sea should have belonged to our demonic path long ago!"

In an instant, the Demon Eater Sect's Grand Elder's eyes lit up, and he no longer cared about the arrogant tone of the person in front of him.

This is also the ambition of the Four Symbols Demonic Sect.

"Would Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi be willing to help us contend with the entire cultivation world of the Eastern Star Profound Sea in the future?"

"That's natural!"

A smile appeared on Li Xuan's lips: "Since the Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce has moved to the Northern Demon Realm, it should naturally do its part."

"I am also willing to work with the Grand Elder to change the current state of the world and bring about the revival of the demonic path as soon as possible."

"it is good!"

The Grand Elder of the Demon Food Sect smiled and said, "I also hope to join forces with Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi in the future to conquer the entire Eastern Star Profound Sea and seize the opportunities for creation in this world!"

"I have been looking forward to this for a long time!"

Li Xuan's smile widened even more.

The opportunities he seeks are not only in the Eastern Star Profound Sea cultivation world, but also in the Four Symbols Demon Sect.

"Welcome, Fellow Daoist Xuan Shi, to the Northern Demon Realm!"

"Thank you for your promise, Elder. The Xuan Shi Chamber of Commerce will certainly give your sect its full support."
