I have a city in another world

Chapter 7095 The Demon God's Scheme

The otherworldly demon god, who believed he controlled everything and that no one could defy his will, became extremely displeased upon discovering the unexpected situation.

The hidden demonic intent instantly became sharp, like countless tentacles, sweeping across the entire city in an instant.

They frantically tried to lock onto the target, searching for that despicable entity that had secretly stolen the treasure.

Every ruin and every monk became the subject of the investigation.

They even went so far as to deplete their own essence and amplify the range of their demonic perception, all in order to uncover the hidden enemies.

When it comes to a struggle for interests, one must not be stingy; one must go all out.

After all that effort, they found nothing. They didn't detect any unusual signs or lock onto any suspicious targets. The lost treasures seemed to have vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.

In a distant, otherworldly realm, in an unknown space shrouded in chaotic mist, a colossal figure, as large as a mountain, stood silently.

His body was shrouded in dark demonic energy, and his eyes were like two burning blood-red stars, radiating a terrifying pressure. The space around him was slightly distorted and vibrated because of his aura, and with each breath, he could cause countless demonic energies to surge.

Sensing the sudden anomaly, the figure slowly spoke, uttering a low, questioning voice that echoed like thunder across the chaos: "Huh, what's going on?"

His divine thoughts raced, pondering the reasons behind it.

Could it be that some other deity is deliberately obstructing His harvest of essence and soul in secret?
Not impossible.

This desolate and collapsing post-apocalyptic world was a hunting ground coveted by gods from all sides. The cultivators and creatures here were lambs to the slaughter in their eyes. Every god was trying to harvest the essence and souls here to nourish themselves and improve their cultivation.

With competition comes conflict and bloodshed—the gods secretly plotting against each other, engaging in open and covert struggles, obstructing and scheming against one another, which is a common occurrence in the divine realm.

Perhaps this time, it was a god who was hostile to Him who deliberately plotted in secret, stole the treasures, and disrupted the order of His hunting grounds in order to hinder His harvest plan.

Another possibility is that among these indigenous monks who have entered, there is a target who is being closely watched and carefully protected by other gods.

To prevent the target from dying, the deity secretly stole the treasure and created anomalies to warn and punish Him, making Him reconsider His harvesting plan and let the target go.

Such behavior is not uncommon among deities and can be seen as a "courtesy before force" tactic.

Not wanting to escalate the conflict from the outset and trigger a direct war between the gods, yet still wanting to achieve their goals, they could only send warning signals through this roundabout method.

It should be understood that direct wars between gods are extremely destructive, often resulting in the destruction of the world and affecting countless planes and living beings. Neither side can escape unscathed.

Therefore, they try to avoid competition and rivalry as much as possible, and often resort to roundabout schemes and covert suppression to complete their competition and rivalry.

Upon considering this possibility, the colossal god, as large as a mountain, suddenly sneered, his laughter filled with undisguised mockery and disdain. The demonic energy around him instantly became violent, and a savage glint flashed in his blood-red eyes: "No matter what your background is, no matter who is protecting you, once you enter my cage, you are destined to become prey, to be harvested by me!"

In His eyes, any being that dares to obstruct or provoke Him, whether it be other otherworldly gods or cultivators under His protection, can be crushed at any time if He so desires.

This sudden turn of events caused the otherworldly demon god to temporarily change his plans.

With a thought, the demonic energy around him surged wildly, drawing upon the primal power that had crossed realms, and forcefully tore a spatial rift in the center of the hunting ground.

That was a dimensional space that belonged exclusively to Him, and also a treasure trove that He had accumulated over countless years.

This dimensional space contains countless treasures: fragments of divine artifacts and cultivation manuals unearthed from ancient ruins; crystallized essence blood and precious gems harvested from various planes; and demonic artifacts and elixirs personally crafted by Him, each item priceless enough to drive any high-level cultivator mad.

He opened this dimensional treasure trove not to reward the cultivators, but to lure all the cultivators trapped in the hunting grounds inside.

The allure of top-tier treasures is enough to drive those greedy native cultivators to rush into the dimensional space without regard for anything else.

Once inside the dimensional space, it falls completely under His control, where He has greater authority and can mobilize even more powerful rules.

Neither hidden cultivators nor gods secretly interfering could easily disrupt His plans.

In this way, He can leave all the cultivators behind, with none of them able to escape, and harvest all their essence and souls.

At the same time, we can also take this opportunity to find the person who secretly stole the treasure and created the anomaly, and tear him to pieces as a warning to others.

However, this greedy and arrogant otherworldly demon god probably never dreamed that such self-righteous scheming and planning would not only fail to resolve the hidden dangers, but would also bring him more troubles.

The dimensional treasure trove that He opened with His own hands not only failed to trap all the cultivators, but also attracted an "uninvited guest" that He could never detect.

Tang Zhen had already made up his mind that after watching this farce orchestrated by the demon god, he would use teleportation to leave this place of trouble.

After all, the fighting and harvesting here had nothing to do with him. The life and death of those cultivators and the ownership of those treasures could not arouse much interest in him.

But just as the otherworldly demon god opened the dimensional treasure vault, an extremely pure primordial power emanated from the spatial rift and entered his senses.

That primordial power was neither demonic energy, nor spiritual energy, nor the elemental power of the wizarding world, but a primordial consciousness originating from the beginning of chaos.

It contains an extremely large amount of energy, and even faintly resonates with the rule-breaking artifact within his body.

In addition, he sensed that a very special item was hidden in the dimensional space.

The item exuded a familiar aura, which aroused his curiosity.

On the collapsed city wall, Tang Zhen stood still, a hint of contemplation flashing in his eyes.

Leaving allows one to escape safely and stay away from this conflict; entering, however, may lead to falling into the trap of demons and facing unknown dangers, but it may also bring some unexpected benefits.

After a moment's hesitation, Tang Zhen smiled faintly, a hint of eagerness flashing in his eyes.

His life was full of challenges and adventures, and it would be too boring to miss such opportunities because of fear of danger.

Moreover, with his "Disappearance Technique" and ninth-level cultivation, even if he were in the treasure vault of the demon god, he might not be able to escape unscathed.

With his mind made up, Tang Zhen no longer hesitated, and his aura instantly subdued to the extreme.

As if merging into the air, with one step, it silently entered the dimensional treasure vault of the otherworldly demon god through the spatial rift, leaving no trace, as if no one had ever stepped in.

At this moment, the otherworldly demon god is still secretly monitoring, waiting for the cultivators to flood into the dimensional treasure vault.

Unbeknownst to them, the target they had been searching for had already silently infiltrated them.
