Full level of enlightenment: I achieved Daozu by ascending to the lower realm

"Don't worry, I didn't use any of my magical power."

Ning Qi, on the contrary, remained very calm: "I'm also very curious about what happened."

After saying that, he continued to examine the situation.

At this point, the strange phenomenon began to dissipate.

Everyone who was shocked has calmed down.

"What... is going on?"

"Who is he? Why did he cause such a celestial phenomenon?"

"Could this be a god of our demon race?"

"..."

Many people were still discussing it, unaware of what had just happened.

"So, did he pass?"

Lei Shan already knew the situation and asked smugly.

He had just thought his brother had misjudged him, but now it seemed that he hadn't misjudged at all; he hadn't made a mistake at all.

He never expected that Ning Qi could cause such a celestial phenomenon.

In this respect, his talent is no less than Zhao Lingtian's.

"This...he...is he the legendary Demon Lord?"

After a while, the man from before murmured, "How is this possible?"

"I don't think he's a Supreme Being; he should be a member of the Demon God Clan."

"The demons and gods who are above the Heavenly Demons and Blood Demons."

Another elderly man with white hair came over and looked at Ning Qi with surprise: "His bloodline power can create a new demon anytime, anywhere."

"At the same time, it can also allow the bloodline power of the Heavenly Demon Clan and the Blood Demon Clan to return to its peak."

"What are gods and demons?"

"I've heard that our Heavenly Demon Clan and the Blood Demon Clan were descendants of the God Clan among the Demon Gods."

"Yes, I never expected to encounter the Demon God Clan here, a demon race that is superior to us Heavenly Demons and Blood Demons."

"..."

The old man's words sparked a flurry of discussion among the crowd.

Each of them wore a solemn expression.

They never expected to encounter the demon gods here.

"I wonder if he is an ordinary person among the demon gods, or a member of the royal family among the demon gods."

The old man continued, "If it were royalty, our Zhao family line could rise again."

"The patriarch has ordered that this gentleman go to the back mountain to speak."

Just then, a middle-aged man came over and greeted them.

Everyone turned to look.

"Tianlei, have you left the pass?"

Lei Shan was somewhat surprised.

He remembered very clearly that Zhao Yunze had already gone into seclusion, so how could he suddenly wake up?

"Yes, with such a commotion here, how could he not wake up?"

Zhao Tianlei nodded, then invited again, "Sir, please."

"please."

Ning Qi didn't hesitate and followed along.

"The patriarch personally received him; this young man has a bright future ahead of him."

"Nonsense, this is someone from our Demon God Clan. Even if Zhao Lingtian came, we would still treat him well."

"..."

The people behind them began to discuss among themselves, each with a solemn expression.

Others looked on with envy.

They longed to possess this extinct bloodline, but with their mediocre talents, it was impossible for them.

"Brother Lei, I'll head over now."

Before leaving, Ning Qi made sure to say goodbye to Lei Shan.

"Brother Ning, no need to be so polite. You'll be more prestigious than me in the future..."

Leishan said bitterly.

He never expected that he would bring such an important person with him.

"Haha! Brother Lei, you flatter me."

Ning Qi just laughed loudly, and then left with them.

He followed Zhao Tianlei like that, all the way through the square.

After passing through the city in front of them, they finally arrived at a mountainside outside the city.

The two continued onward, heading towards the back of the mountain.

"My lord, where have you been before? Why couldn't our demon patrols sense your presence?"

As Zhao Tianlei led the way, he finally couldn't help but ask.

"Wandering".

Ning Qi's answer was simple: "I've always been hiding, and I'm often worried about being discovered by the immortals."

"I see. So you haven't been to other demon territories?"

Zhao Tianlei asked curiously again.

"No, I've always been in the area on the edge of the border sea."

"Even if we do encounter them, they are all weak, and sometimes they are wiped out directly."

Ning Qi continued to lie.

“Master, this person really knows how to get to the bottom of things.”

The medicine spirit felt very relaxed in his dantian.

He has now relaxed.

It was clear they wouldn't do anything to the master and servant.

"This situation will not happen again when you come here in the future."

"We have a Golden Immortal guarding this place!"

After listening to his explanation, Zhao Tianlei said confidently, "As long as you are willing to be with us, we will give you enough protection and resources."

"Thank you very much!"

Ning Qi clasped his hands in a fist salute and then said with a smile, "I've finally found a place to stay. I've always lived a life of hiding."

"My lord, we have arrived."

Zhao Tianlei suddenly stopped.

The two were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't even notice they had already descended the mountain.

At this moment, they were in front of a wooden house on the back mountain.

The area is surrounded by beautiful mountains and clear waters; you wouldn't guess it's a demon's territory.

You can hear birds chirping from time to time.

There was none of the oppressive, demonic aura that had permeated the area before.

On the contrary, it is similar to a fairyland outside, with ethereal mist and rare and exotic plants everywhere.

"Father, the master has arrived."

Zhao Tianlei paused for a moment before respectfully reporting.

"Okay, come in."

Soon a strong voice came from inside the wooden house.

"My lord, please come with me!"

Zhao Tianlei turned around and called out, then stepped forward to lead the way.

"please!"

Ning Qi agreed and then followed them over.

"Squeak."

As Zhao Tianlei pushed open the wooden door, he went in first.

Ning Qi followed closely behind and went inside as well.

The wooden house didn't look particularly special; there was a table in the middle and two rows of wooden benches along the walls on either side.

On the last side was a tea table and two armchairs.

This is clearly prepared for VIPs.

"Sit here."

A middle-aged man sitting in a grand chair beckoned Ning Qi to sit next to him.

They clearly already considered Ning Qi a distinguished guest.

Thank you.

Ning Qi didn't say anything, thanked him, and sat down.

There was no politeness whatsoever; on the contrary, they seemed quite familiar with each other.

"Where did you come from?"

Zhao Yunze gave Zhao Tianlei a look before asking.

Zhao Tianlei then hurriedly left.

“I was brought from the outskirts of District 15.”

Ning Qi answered the same question no matter who asked him.

He had already kept this in mind.

"They told me about your situation just now." Zhao Yunze nodded.

Clearly, they had already communicated with each other telepathically on their way here.

“Patriarch Zhao, I have come here sincerely to pledge my allegiance.”

"Please let me know if there is any inconvenience."

Ning Qi listened to his words and his attitude, and felt that there was something wrong with the matter.

Even though he is the head of the family, he shouldn't be so indifferent.

"Don't worry, from now on you are one of our people."

Zhao Yunze smiled and said.

"The tea is here!"

At this moment, Zhao Tianlei returned, this time with tea in his hands.

After approaching them, I very politely placed the items there for them.

Then he sat down on a stool on the side.

Clearly, they also wanted to hear their conversation.

"Young friend Ning, please have some tea first."

Zhao Yunze gestured with his hand.

Thank you.

Ning Qi didn't stand on ceremony and picked up the teacup to take a sip.

"Young friend Ning, your talent is exceptional."

“I just saw the strange phenomena in your world, and you are very likely a member of the Demon God clan of our Demon race.”

Zhao Yun cut to the chase, saying, "Do you have any tokens or martial arts techniques on you? Perhaps I can deduce something from them."

"Are you a member of the royal family, a member of the royal family, or a member of the powerful and influential?"

"Those who are not one of these three types of people are not qualified to have offspring."

Ning Qi finally understood what was going on after hearing his words.

It turns out they considered themselves to be among the powerful and wealthy.

"This one……"

Ning Qi thought for a moment, then suddenly realized something.

Then he took out his bronze mirror directly from his storage bag.

Shi Xiaokun had previously stated that it was sealed inside by someone.

He seemed to have told him at the time that this was the bronze mirror of the demon race.

"This is... the Prison Mirror of our Demon God Clan?"

Zhao Yunze stared wide-eyed at the bronze mirror in Ning Qi's hand.

I never expected to see such a long-lost bronze mirror here.

The mere fact that it was brought out was enough to shock him.

"The Prisoner Mirror?"

After hearing his words, Ning Qi finally learned the name of the bronze mirror.

Even Shi Xiaokun hadn't explained it clearly to him before.

“Indeed, this bronze mirror is the most precious treasure of our Demon God clan’s royal family.”

"Legend has it that it can devour an entire world and nourish incense offerings within it."

"As long as enough people are captured and taken inside, they can receive offerings of incense and food."

Zhao Yunze nodded and said seriously.

"Oh?"

Ning Qi narrowed his eyes upon hearing his words.

Only then did he understand why Shi Xiaokun had asked him to become the World Spirit.

So that was the plan.

In order to obtain the incense offerings here.

"Master, this Shi Xiaokun is a fraud!"

Yao Ling also realized: "He's not telling us the truth."

"I understand. I'll settle this score with him later."

"That bastard actually gave me his soul blood just to gain my trust."

He thought the matter would go unnoticed.

Ning Qi naturally understood and said in a deep voice.

Of course, they communicated through thoughts, so Zhao Yunze and Zhao Tianlei couldn't hear them at all.

"This priceless treasure is in your hands."

"Young friend Ning, then you must be a member of the Demon God Royal Family."

Zhao Yunze looked excited and continued, "From now on, you will be an honored guest of our Heavenly Demon Clan."

"Stay here from now on, we'll do everything we can to protect you."

"Oh? I heard when I came in that we still had to participate in the trial."

Ning Qi replied seriously upon hearing this.

Once we settle in, we might not have the chance to go out anymore, and then we won't be able to communicate with Xu Qingqiu and the others or report the situation here.

"That was directed at those foreign demons."

"They are away from home for many years. Wouldn't it be a waste if we didn't make use of them?"

"They can never truly be a part of us."

"To put it bluntly, it's just giving them a chance and letting them pay the price."

Zhao Tianlei said with a smile, "Some of these people may have already been turned by the Immortal Clan."

"No matter where you put them, no one will value them."

"What if some people actually pass the test?"

Ning Qi frowned and asked.

"Then we can only start with the lowest-class mountain strongholds."

"Whenever we are discovered here and need to evacuate, they stay behind to block the immortals' attack."

Zhao Tianlei then explained, "In this way, our people can leave as safely as possible."

"I see!"

By this time, Ning Qi finally understood what was going on.

If I hadn't unleashed my extraordinary talent and supernatural abilities, I would have ended up like them.

That would give us the opportunity to spread the news from here.

However, he never expected that he would be able to unleash such a celestial phenomenon and attract the attention of the people here.

Now, it's not so easy to go out freely.

"Master, have we miscalculated?"

Yao Ling said with some concern, "They treat us like royalty. Do you think they can just let us leave?"

"Then we won't be able to contact the outside world, and we won't be able to report the situation here to them."

"good."

Ning Qi sighed inwardly, "I never expected it to turn out like this."

"If I had known, I would have used the power of ordinary bloodline."

"Master, then we can only make the best of it since we're already here."

"We'll find another opportunity to get out, or maybe we'll get the news out."

Yao Ling thought for a moment, then sighed and said.

"That's right, that's the only way."

After mentally responding, Ning Qi turned his attention to the outside world: "Then, I've decided I can't break the rules."

"Otherwise, people outside will have their own thoughts."

"They won't have any thoughts; they're all demons."

"You are still a member of the royal family of the Demon God clan, so they wouldn't dare to have any ideas."

Zhao Yunze smiled and said, "You can just stay here without worry. We'll take care of the rest."

"Father, there's one more thing."

Zhao Tianlei suddenly realized something and quickly said, "This news must be kept secret. If it gets out, Xu Shichang will definitely send Xu Tieshan to demand our people!"

"Xu Shichang?"

Zhao Yunze frowned upon hearing this: "That's right, you've reminded me."

"Alright, pass down the order to seal off what just happened and forbid anyone from spreading it!"

"Anyone who leaks even the slightest information will be killed without exception."

"Yes! I'll go and inform them right away!"

Zhao Tianlei quickly agreed and then hurriedly got up and left.

"I heard from Brother Lei that we Heavenly Demons and Blood Demons have formed an alliance."

Why should we still be wary of them?

Ning Qi, on the contrary, became curious.

"Our alliance is limited to not fighting amongst ourselves."

Zhao Yunze sighed: "For so many years, neither of us has been willing to concede to the other."

"Otherwise, we would have had the opportunity to conquer the Immortal Realm long ago."

"Oh? So that means they're only superficially united."

Ning Qi understood what was going on after hearing his explanation. (End of Chapter)
