Chapter 476 Demon Realm
"This speedrun mission: Help T1000 kill John Connor."

"Reward: One T1000 Terminator."

"Time limit: 30 minutes."

"Mission failed: 1. T1000 has died. 2. Time: 7 days, seriously exceeded."

Before Lu Ang could see the words clearly, the blue light curtain in front of him shattered instantly, followed by the familiar dizziness.

Habit becomes nature. Lu Ang recovered quickly and carefully observed his surroundings in a complete [spatial phase] state.

Just like before, there was still deep darkness all around, just like the thickest night, without a trace of light. Even if Lu Ang opened his third eye, he could not see anything through the darkness.

Has the demonic barrier not dissipated yet? And there is no sound at all, it is so quiet as if there is nothing outside.

Lu Ang didn't dare to release his spiritual power to explore and check. After thinking about it, he mobilized his mental strength and released a second-ring arcane spell: "Life Detection".

Invisible arcane energy dissipated, and in the feedback of his mental power, Lu Ang sensed some creatures of different sizes, like fish, swimming in this dark magic barrier.

These creatures are all strange in shape. Some look like snakes, but have no mouths or ears, and only one huge eye on their huge heads.

Some look like swimming fish, but their bodies are not covered with scales, but with extremely sticky mucus, like petroleum, which sways as they move, but not a drop falls.

There were also some human-like creatures, but they either had two heads or the wrong number of arms and legs. There were also some creatures that looked like a ball of wool or a cloud of mist, all of them exuding a strange demonic aura, constantly circling and flying like vultures, looking for something.

So these things are the demons? They are really disgusting. They feel a bit like the things produced in the weird test dungeon...

Oh, no! These things exude demonic nature, with the implication of temptation and depravity, while those things in the weird dungeon are more resentment, hatred, and the embodiment of some extreme evil. The two are very different in form and cannot be confused.

Then he extended a little more spiritual perception.

Fortunately, the vague sense of danger from before disappeared. These patrolling demons did not seem very strong to him. Perhaps they were at most in the Nascent Soul stage. It should not be difficult to deal with them.

Of course, Lu Ang’s spiritual power is limited, and it is not ruled out that there are demons of the Hedao or even Mahayana level in the outer sect who are ambushing in secret and blocking his spiritual perception.

But Lu Ang felt that the probability of this happening would not be very high. The reason was very simple. The Menglv Flying Boat had been broken for more than seven days. Those geniuses, passengers, guardian elders and the like, those who should have escaped must have already escaped, and those who should have been caught must have already been caught.

This kind of ambush and encirclement situation requires a quick victory. No matter whether it is the ambushing party or the ambushed party, the time of a Hedao or Mahayana is so precious that they usually take action to deal with those tough protectors and those Dao body-level geniuses. As for the rest of the passengers who are not of much value, they have to leave some time for their men.

It is also unlikely that he would stay in the same place for seven whole days, specifically looking for any fish that had slipped through the net.

Although there were dangers everywhere, Lu Ang had decided to give in. The worst that could happen was death and a reversal of fate, or a perfect reincarnation. If a great demon from the demon clan really came out to kill him in an instant, then it would be his bad luck.

I took out the traveler's map and looked at it for a while. Very good. Even though I was in this so-called "devil's barrier", this strange thing could still be used and it clearly guided the direction.

Without saying a word, Lu Ang continued to maintain the full state of [Space Phase] and flew towards the human territory in the south.

For fear of being discovered, he did not go down to the ground and use the Golden Light, but used Fengxu Yufeng in mid-air, maintaining the highest speed to escape.

Fortunately, after being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, the wind-controlling ability of this magical power has become much stronger, and the maximum speed has increased by more than a hundred times. Lu Ang's speed is not much slower than that of the Menglv Flying Boat.

When his magic power was exhausted, he took pills and used spirit stones to recover. When he was fully recovered, he continued to fly, trying his best to avoid contact with the outside world. This process lasted for more than twenty times.

It was pitch dark and I didn’t know how far I had flown, but suddenly, a light appeared in front of Lu Ang’s eyes!
It is not accurate to say that there was light. In fact, there was no sun or moonlight. There was only a grey and dark sky, and below it was a grey and dead ground, bare without a single plant.

This eerie and dead scenery puts a lot of psychological pressure on people, but it is much better than not being able to see anything before.

There was nothing to appreciate, so Lu Ang continued to fly south. As he flew, he saw half of a spiritual flying sword stuck in the gray ground. There were also dark bloodstains on the flying sword, which were still corroding the broken sword.

Lu Ang was a man who had seen the world, and he quickly analyzed that this was a fourth-grade top-grade flying sword, perhaps belonging to some genius.

It just looked around and found neither its owner nor its enemy.

After flying for a while, they saw a dozen demons with their skeletons exposed and muscles and skin gathered at the joints sitting together on a gray hill, facing a pale fire. A long strip of meat was roasting on the fire, and grease dripped from the meat from time to time.

Lu Ang did not guess and continued flying. Finally, after passing the gray and silent area, some ferocious plants appeared in front of him. Unlike the emerald green of the human territory, these plants were completely black, whether it was the trunks or the leaves, the branches seemed to be still dancing, just like living people.

After that, they passed a long blood-red river, a dark green swamp, and a mountain full of holes... He didn't know how long he had been flying, and he had consumed more than thirty spirit stones. Lu Ang finally found the gathering point of a large number of creatures.

This is also a mountain with holes all over. It is not very high, but there are no plants. Looking through the holes, you can see many large and small, strange-looking demons shuttling through the holes.

These demons didn't seem to follow any rules. Some were fighting, some were intersecting, some were holding hands to form a circle, and some just took off body parts and handed them to the merchant in exchange for a black leather bag... After a rough sense, the realms of these demons were not very high. The strongest one on the top of the mountain was only at the Nascent Soul level, and it looked like he could be easily dealt with.

Lu Ang didn't want to alert the enemy and cause trouble, so he continued to fly south.

The further south you go, the more demon settlements there are. Most of them live on these cave mountains, and a small number live on both sides of the Blood River. Lu Ang even saw a cave mountain that was tens of thousands of meters high and went straight into the gray clouds. The vague sense of danger made Lu Ang avoid it immediately.

There seemed to be no sun or moon in the Demon Realm. Although he knew that he had been flying for countless days, Lu Ang did not find any change in the sky in the Demon Realm. It was always a cloudy day covered with gray clouds, with no distinction between day and night.

Hundreds of medium-grade spirit stones were consumed, and he didn't know how many bottles of the fourth-level soul-recovering elixir were used. Finally, on the traveler's map, he was not far from the border between humans and demons.

I'm finally getting out! This is really...

I will never take this kind of transportation again! It is safer to travel by myself! I covet enjoyment and the pleasure of the journey, but what is the result? I am lucky this time, but what if there are demons guarding the body next time? Isn't the operation very stiff?

Well! I've decided. Once I return to the human area... well... once I enter the heart of the human territory, I will immediately start the replay! When I return to the time of departure, I will not take the Dream Journey Flying Boat, but directly fly to the East Palace to report the news! Nip the danger in the bud!
After all, he was also a human. If so many geniuses and high-level elders who protected the way died, it would not be a good thing for the human race. If the war between humans and demons broke out again, a sect like the Xianlian Sect, which was located on the border between humans and demons, might not be spared.

The development of the Xianlian Sect has just gotten on the right track, and the players have not yet developed. If the demons take advantage of the situation, they will not be able to withstand the baptism of a racial war.

After making up his mind, Lu Ang continued to fly south.

I don’t know how many days had passed, but finally, the gray sky retreated and was replaced by the blue sky, along with the warm sun, gentle breeze, and large areas of lush green on the ground.

Damn! I'm finally back to the human race!

I took a look at the traveler's map, and the location shown on it is at the border between the human race and the demon race. If what I guessed is correct, this should be the promised land of the demon monks, the legendary paradise of the demon sect, and the border between humans and demons.

Looking down from time to time, Lu Ang discovered many human cultivators as expected. However, all of them carried a certain degree of demonic nature, and their attire was very bold and open. Many of them even blatantly carried large swords made of bones, or strange flesh and blood puppets. Some places were even piled with countless broken limbs, and some people were standing in the blood and performing some kind of ceremony.

Alas, the lowest-level mortals in the Human-Demon Border may still be kept in captivity and qualified to be used as monsters' playthings. However, the mortals in this Human-Demon Border are probably born as living materials for some demons, and neither their bodies nor their souls can escape. It is really miserable...

Sighing, Lu Ang continued to head south.

Or if he becomes stronger in the future and becomes a Mahayana Immortal Lord, he will come to change the spiritual outlook of this human-demon border, completely destroy all the demon sects, and earn some merits. But for now, the most important thing is to remain useful, and there is no need to show off.

The human-demon border is larger than the human-monster border, but Lu Ang and Feng Xu are fast enough to reach the real human territory, a sixth-level fairyland called "Demon Sealing Realm" in just five days.

This is also one of the frontier fairyland where the human race faces the demon realm and has built a powerful defensive formation. In addition to it, there is also the Demon Suppression Realm, the Demon Extermination Realm, the Demon Destruction Realm, and a series of sixth- or seventh-level fairyland, forming a powerful steel defense line. Since the last large-scale invasion of the demons, it has protected the human race for more than 30,000 years.

The fairyland formation of the Demon Sealing Realm is in a fully open state, unlike the Tiance Realm on the human-demon border, which has a small opening of the Yulin Fairy City, allowing independent cultivators to pass through, or stay to rest and trade.

I don't know if it has been like this for many years, or if it was started because of the incident with the Dream Journey Flying Boat.

After searching for a while and failing to find the entrance, Lu Ang had no choice but to face the formation directly, turning the [Spatial Phase] to the highest level and trying to pass through.

However, unexpectedly, the [Spatial Phase], which had always been effective, did not work this time. It was as if it had hit a solid wall, directly blocking Lu Ang outside!
Obviously, this formation should have used some void materials and has the ability to isolate void travel!
It makes sense. The human race has void magic weapons and can use the power of the void. The demons must also have this kind of void magic weapon. As the defending side, they must consider the possibility of the other side using void magic weapons to invade on a large or small scale.

Just this made Lu Ang very embarrassed. He had finally escaped, but now he couldn't go back!

Changing direction, Lu Ang went to several other frontier fairylands to try them out. He confirmed that all of these fairylands had activated complete magic arrays, completely isolating them from the human-demon border areas. These magic arrays, from the Gangfeng layer in the sky to the depths of the Nine Netherworlds underground, had basically no loopholes.

There was no other way, so Lu Ang had to descend from the sky, randomly found a Nascent Soul stage demon cultivator he disliked, took out his purple lightning hammer and killed him, then used his [Fake Shape] magical power to transform into his appearance.

He simulated the demonic energy in him in a delicate and complete manner, carried the guy's bone spear on his back, and walked into a small fairy city near the Demon-Suppressing City.

This fairy city is obviously controlled by the human race, and it is filled with all kinds of demon cultivators. Although there are fights from time to time and the buildings are not so regular, there are still basic rules.

Lu Ang walked directly into a high-end restaurant, ordered a table of dishes, left the waiter, and threw out a few spirit stones: "I have been in seclusion for a long time and just came out. I am about to go back to the inland. Why is this Demon Suppression City completely blocked from traffic?"

The waiter took the spirit stone with a filthy look on his face and spoke very respectfully: "Reporting to the senior, we don't know the reason. There was a passage before. Everyone could get in after tidying up, dispersing the evil spirit, and spending some spirit stones. But four days ago, I don't know what happened. These fairy realms suddenly closed the formation passage completely. We sent a message but there was no response. Everyone doesn't know what happened. We can only wait here. You see, everyone is waiting for news."

He also pointed to the side, and just as he said, although it was not yet dinner time, the restaurant was already full of people, and the flow of people on the street seemed quite crowded. I originally thought that this was a busy place, but now it seems that there is a traffic jam.

The human race reacted very quickly. Once something happened, they were able to transmit the information to the border within three days and prepare for war. From this point of view, there must be many human masters rushing here. After all, so many geniuses have died, no sect can tolerate it and they will have to take revenge more or less.

Even if he is afraid of the demons and doesn't dare to fight head-on, he should still have the courage to destroy a few demon sects.

No! From this point of view, you can't stay here at all! Those sect elders are in a killing mood, and they don't care whether you are a real demon cultivator or a fake demon cultivator!

How many good people are there in this borderland of humans and demons? If we kill them all, there won't be many innocent people left!
Don’t try to escape only to be killed by your own people!
Thinking of this, without much hesitation, Lu Ang immediately sank into the ground. He sank for three consecutive days. After he stood firm, he quickly activated the [Rewind]!
