Traveling Between Two Worlds: From Bread for Maids to Fantasy Overlord

Following the map of the demon realm, Huang Yiming and his companions concealed their tracks, avoiding several demon patrol points, and finally arrived at the edge of the demon territory after half a day. The evil aura here was even denser than along the way, the sky was an eerie dark black, and the demon camp was faintly visible in the distance. From the direction of the camp came bursts of demon roars, sending chills down their spines.

"The demon camp is just ahead." Huang Yiming lowered his voice and gestured for Qin Yuling and Zi Yao to stop. The three of them hid behind a secluded rock and carefully observed the demon camp ahead. "The camp is very large and heavily guarded. There are demon cultivators everywhere. It will be very difficult to sneak in."

Qin Yuling followed Huang Yiming's gaze and saw that the outer perimeter of the demon camp was filled with demon guards, each with a powerful aura, the lowest of whom were at the early Foundation Establishment stage; in the center of the camp was a huge black tent, surrounded by even more heavily guarded guards, with faint auras of Golden Core stage cultivators emanating from it, which was obviously Moro's tent.

"That black tent should be Moro's camp, and Mo Chenzi is most likely inside as well." Qin Yuling's tone was solemn, and her eyes were sharp as she stared at the black tent. "There are two Foundation Establishment Peak demon guards around the tent. We must deal with them first if we want to get close, and we must also be careful not to alert other demon cultivators."

Zi Yao activated a secret technique of the Demonic Sect, carefully sensing the aura within the camp. After a moment, she slowly spoke: "There are three peak Foundation Establishment cultivators, ten late Foundation Establishment cultivators, and the rest are Demonic cultivators at the early and middle stages of Foundation Establishment. Moro's mid-stage Golden Core aura is in that black tent. In addition, I also sensed Mo Chenzi's aura; his aura is very weak, so he should not have fully recovered from his injuries."

A glint of light flashed in Huang Yiming's eyes: "Mo Chenzi's injuries haven't healed yet, this is the perfect opportunity for us to kill him. By the way, Zi Yao, have you sensed the aura of the third ancient time-travel fragment?"

Zi Yao nodded, her tone certain: "I sensed it. The fragment's aura is in Moro's tent, and it should be in his possession. The fragment's aura resonated strongly with the two fragments you hold, but it was slightly weaker because it was enveloped by Moro's evil energy."

"Very good. As long as we confirm that the fragment is in Moro's hands, we will have a chance to seize it." Huang Yiming's lips curled into a cold smile. "Now we will hide and observe the movements of the camp to see what Mo Chenzi and Moro are plotting, and wait for the best time to infiltrate."

The three remained hidden behind the rocks, holding their breath and cautiously observing the movements of the demon camp. A moment later, two demon cultivators carried a huge black box into Moro's tent, and then the sound of Moro and Mo Chenzi talking could be heard from inside the tent—although the voices were not loud, Huang Yiming and the other two, with their cultivation levels, could still vaguely hear them.

"Mo Chenzi, how is your injury recovery going? In three days we will launch a major invasion of the two realms to seize the ancient time-travel fragments. You can't let us down." Moro's voice was low and hoarse, carrying a strong evil aura, and his tone was full of impatience.

Mo Chenzi's voice was weak yet cold: "Lord Moro, rest assured, although my injuries have not yet healed, I will definitely be able to assist you in invading the two realms, killing Huang Yiming, and seizing the fragments in three days. Although that brat Huang Yiming is at the peak of Foundation Establishment, he is no match for you at all. As long as we join forces, we will definitely dominate the two realms."

"Hmph, you'd better keep your word." Moro sneered, his tone disdainful. "If it weren't for the fact that you're still somewhat useful and can help me open the passage between the two worlds, I would have killed you and drained your life essence long ago. Remember, the third fragment of the time travel is in my hands. Once we invade the two worlds, defeat Huang Yiming, and collect all three fragments to activate the ancient treasure, I will appoint you as the deputy leader of the Demon Clan, sharing both worlds."

"Thank you, Lord Moro!" Mo Chenzi's voice was full of flattery and greed. "This subordinate will do everything in his power to assist you in accomplishing your great task. By the way, Lord Moro, Huang Yiming has two fragments, and he also has modern weapons with tremendous power. We must be on guard."

"Modern weapons?" Moro sneered, his tone contemptuous. "They're just mortal junk. What power could they possibly have? Even if he has modern weapons, they can't withstand my mid-stage Golden Core cultivation, nor the onslaught of my demon army. Three days from now, I will personally kill Huang Yiming, seize the two fragments from his possession, activate the ancient treasure, and make the entire Azure Netherworld my demon race's domain!"

Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of Huang Yiming and the other two. Moro's arrogance and Mo Chenzi's obsequiousness ignited their fury. Huang Yiming secretly took out the system's recording device and recorded their entire conversation—this would be irrefutable evidence of their collusion with the demons and their intention to invade both realms.

"How arrogant! Moro actually looks down on us and modern weapons like this. Today we will make him pay the price!" Qin Yuling lowered her voice, her tone full of anger. The long sword in her hand trembled slightly, and she wished she could rush in and kill Mo Chenzi and Moro immediately.

Zi Yao gently pressed Qin Yuling's shoulder, signaling her to calm down: "Yuling, don't be impulsive, now is not the time. Moro is a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, even if the three of us join forces, we may not be his match. Moreover, there are still many demon cultivators in the camp. If we alert them, we will be surrounded, which would be a loss."

Huang Yiming nodded, his tone firm: "Ziyao is right, we can't be impulsive. Now that we know their plan and have confirmed that the fragment is in Moro's hands, we must wait for the best opportunity to infiltrate, seize the fragment when they are off guard, kill Mo Chenzi, and then retreat immediately. We must not linger in battle."

Just then, Moro's tent suddenly opened, and Mo Chenzi slowly emerged, leaning on a cane. His face was still pale, and his breath weak, but his eyes were filled with greed and ruthlessness. He ordered a demon guard on the outskirts of the camp: "Strengthen the camp's defenses, and prevent human cultivators from infiltrating. If any suspicious persons are discovered, report them immediately and kill them without mercy!"

"Yes!" the demon guards responded in unison, and immediately strengthened the camp's defenses. The demon cultivators patrolled more frequently, and the entire camp was heavily guarded, leaving almost no room for infiltration.

Huang Yiming and his two companions could only remain hidden behind the rocks, patiently waiting for their chance. Just as they were at their wits' end, a commotion suddenly erupted within the camp. A demon cultivator rushed into Moro's tent in a panic, shouting, "Lord Moro, something terrible has happened! There's an anomaly at the seal! Dragon cultivators are approaching and seem intent on breaking it!"

Moro's furious roar echoed from inside the tent: "Useless! You can't even guard a seal properly! I'm going to take a look right now. You immediately gather all the guards and strengthen the defenses at the seal. We absolutely cannot allow the dragon cultivators to break the seal!"

Then, Moro emerged from the tent, radiating the aura of a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, and sped towards the seal at the rear of the camp. Mo Chenzi remained inside the camp, responsible for directing the guards and strengthening security.

A glint of delight flashed in Huang Yiming's eyes—this was truly a godsend! Although the camp's defenses remained tight after Moro's departure, the absence of the oppressive aura of a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator greatly increased their chances of infiltrating. "The opportunity has arrived! Moro is gone; let's infiltrate the camp now, seize the fragments, and kill Mo Chenzi!"

Qin Yuling and Zi Yao's eyes lit up, and they nodded. The three of them immediately concealed their presence and stealthily made their way towards Moro's tent amidst the commotion in the camp. Little did they know, this was all Moro's conspiracy; the appearance of the dragon cultivators was merely a trap he had deliberately set to lure Huang Yiming and his companions out and capture them all!

The sudden appearance of dragon cultivators and Moro's journey to the sealing site seem like a golden opportunity, but in reality, it's a trap set by Moro. Huang Yiming and his two companions infiltrate the camp, only to find themselves in imminent danger.
