From Princess in the Cold Palace to Empress in Heaven

Having said that, the Demon Emperor still did not reveal his trump card, and said something else:

"The origin of the Southern Wasteland Realm is actually of no use to me. As for today, it is a hindrance to me, preventing me from leaving this realm!"

"But you are different. If you want to be an enemy of Emperor Dongji, even if you are strong enough to easily kill earth immortals, Emperor Dongji has been integrating the source of the world for several epochs. He has already been filled with immortal energy and has an extremely deep foundation. He can even take the ultimate step at any time. Compared with him, your strength is still stretched."

"Therefore, if you can integrate the source of the Southern Wilderness Realm, you will have the ability to compete with the Emperor of the East Pole. It only takes a period of accumulation to communicate with the heavens and draw the immortal energy into your body. With your talent, you will definitely be able to defeat the Emperor of the East Pole in a few days!"

At this point, the corner of the Demon Emperor's mouth slightly raised an arc: "By then, you will master the Eastern Pole of the Central Sky and the Southern Wilderness Heavenly Dao, and be able to integrate the sources of the five realms and condense them into one. With the size of the five realms, once integrated, you can be promoted to the ranks of the Heavenly Realm!"

"As the new ruler of the world, you will also receive great rewards and become an immortal on the spot! From now on, you will be free from the constraints of humanity, live freely in the world, and live forever. Isn't it wonderful?"

"Hehe, what you said is quite interesting..." Xiao Minghuang chuckled.

Of course she knew that since the Demon Emperor had outlined such a wonderful future for her, it was impossible for him to do it without paying any price, and it was even more impossible for him to help her for free. After all, this Demon Emperor was a ruthless man who could even kill his own wife with his own hands!

Moreover, while paying the price, one must also consider the huge risks that go along with it. Once the Demon Emperor fails to fulfill, or only partially fulfills, his promise, then the end result will be a waste of time and effort!

"So, what's the price?"

Xiao Minghuang said lightly.

Although she had guessed the Demon Emperor's purpose in her heart, she still did not show any strange expression, as if she had already seen through everything.

Upon hearing this, the Demon Emperor raised a mysterious smile and said, "Since you are standing in front of me, you should already know that the way I practice is a supreme way of forgetting emotions and cutting off cause and effect. If you want to succeed, you must cut off all shackles!"

"My daughter, she is my last bond in this world. As long as she disappears, my path will be complete. I want to thank you for bringing her to the Central Demon Palace..."

Before he finished speaking, the Demon Emperor suddenly took a step, his figure flashed, and he disappeared into the void. In an instant he rushed out of the Red Dust Demon Palace and headed straight for the Demon Palace outside!

The Demon Emperor's speed was extremely fast. In just a few breaths, he had crossed the entire Demon Palace and rushed towards the Drunken Immortal Monk!

Xiao Minghuang's expression remained unchanged. She lightly tapped her jade feet and turned into a stream of light to chase after him.

The two of them walked one after the other and arrived at the gate of the Demon Palace in a flash.

Boom! ! !

The Demon Emperor's power was terrifying, like a god descending to the earth. A monstrous demonic aura enveloped the sky, crushing mountains and rivers, causing the heaven and earth to tremble!

In an instant, the entire Demon Palace was shaken by the terrifying force!

Many servants in the palace felt their scalps tingling as they explained, and a strong sense of oppression came over them!

"what happened!"

"The Lord Demon has taken action?"

Everyone was shocked.

The Zuixian hermit was suddenly frightened and a feeling of despair surged in his heart.

"The princess...failed?"

Zuixian Jushi’s face turned pale, he couldn’t believe it.

In her impression, Princess Xiao is the most powerful person in the entire Five Directions and One World. Just now, Princess Xiao killed an earth immortal with one hand. With such demeanor, it is impossible to misjudge such a peerless genius. Even if she was no match for the Demon Emperor, she would not be defeated in less than a quarter of an hour, right?

Her mind was in a mess.

Bang dong!

The next second, the Demon Emperor descended upon the Central Demon Palace with raging demonic flames.

"My daughter, I have worked so hard for so many years, but now I have finally achieved my goal. Please lend me a helping hand!"

His cold and low voice resounded through the sky, and then he raised his arm and grabbed downwards. His evil palm shattered the sky and covered the sun.

Boom! ! !

The extremely violent force swept across heaven and earth, and the entire Demon Palace shook violently, as if it would collapse at any time!

"Master Demon, why is this happening?!"

"Master Demon, calm down!"

"Demon Lord, spare my life!!"

One after another, the powerful demons knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. They had no idea what was happening. The Demon Emperor suddenly took action and tried to destroy the entire demon palace!

The Demon Emperor seemed unaware, his eyes were indifferent, without any emotion. His devil palm reached out, and in an instant, the defensive restrictions around the Demon Palace broke and collapsed. Then, he slapped it hard, and the laws of the entire small world completely collapsed and disintegrated. With this slap, the entire Central Demon Palace was torn into pieces, turning into countless ruins and falling into the dark void turbulence.

"Do not--"

"Master Demon, stop it!!!"

"Master Demon, please spare my life!!"

In an instant, countless servants of the Demon Palace fell into the turbulence of the void. Begging for mercy and screaming were heard continuously, but they were soon drowned out by the more violent explosions.

However, the smoke dissipated, the void returned to calm, and a graceful figure slowly emerged. It was Xiao Minghuang.

Her expression was still indifferent, without a single injury on her body. Her robes fluttered, her black hair flew, and she was spotless. Her body was bathed in holy golden light, and her eyes were as bright as stars, with a sparkling radiance, as if what had just happened was just an illusion.

Behind her were Zuixian Jushi and Youming Mozun, both of whom were unharmed at this moment, without suffering any damage at all.

"I don't quite understand why you want to kill all your servants?" Xiao Minghuang said indifferently: "Logically speaking, they haven't done anything to offend you."

"It doesn't matter whether they are loyal to me or not. I'm about to leave and I don't need them anymore, so I just kill them. That's all."

The Demon Emperor said calmly.

His eyelids were drooped and his tone seemed very calm, which even made people wonder, would he really kill his own subordinates?

Hearing these words, Xiao Minghuang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. A man like the Demon Emperor could kill his own wife with his own hands and his own daughter, not to mention these servants who had nothing to do with him.

484. Integrate the source of the world and be listed as an earthly immortal!

Perhaps, in his eyes, the lives of these people are not much different from a grain of sand floating in the air...

"Princess Xiao, stop talking nonsense. It's time to make a decision. This is your last chance. Choose to cooperate with me and ascend to the position of the Lord of the Border, or to be hostile to me and die at my hands!"

He suddenly opened his eyes, and his deep and vast pupils flashed with a terrifying fierceness.

"hehe..."

Xiao Minghuang chuckled and was about to refuse, but he heard a shrill cry from behind him.

Seeing Princess Xiao hesitating and ready to compromise with the Demon Emperor, Zuixian Hermit could no longer remain calm, and he directly ignited his own Purple Mansion Cave Heaven and ended his life ahead of schedule. This not only forced the Demon Emperor to cut off his own world source ahead of time, but also forced Princess Xiao to stand on the same side with her and be completely irreconcilable with the Demon Emperor!

"Devil Emperor, you devil, no matter what, I will not let you get what you want!!!"

The Drunken Immortal Hermit roared madly, his whole body burning with flames. The Purple Mansion Cave Heaven turned into fuel, quickly burning his own Taoism to ashes!

The sudden scene shocked everyone present.

The Demon Emperor's expression suddenly turned ugly. Almost at the same time, he clenched his fists, and a mysterious, elusive, mysterious and powerful force peeled off from his body, turning into a beam of light and rushing straight into the sky.

"Boundary source!"

The moment this power appeared, although no one explained it, Xiao Minghuang seemed to know it by nature and immediately knew the origin of this power.

After a moment's hesitation, she looked back at the Drunken Immortal Monk who was bathed in flames, then leaped into the void and followed closely after the source of the Southern Wilderness.

...

The moment the source of the world was cut off, the Demon Emperor's aura weakened at an incredible speed, and his entire body seemed to be frozen in the void, motionless.

At this moment, the Netherworld Demon Lord, who had been silent and like a transparent man, suddenly moved. He walked to the side of the Drunken Immortal Monk, who was about to die with a violent aura, as if normal, and raised his right hand. A strange deep purple magic power spread across his palm and stretched towards her.

He grabbed her neck and lifted her into the air!

Suddenly!

A powerful supreme law enveloped Zuixian Jushi completely, and even rushed into her Purple Mansion Cave Heaven, suppressing her body, Purple Mansion Cave Heaven, and her soul together. The process of Zuixian Jushi's self-destruction was actually blocked!

“You…” Zuixianjushi’s pupils shrank suddenly, and he stared at the Netherworld Demon Lord intently, stumbling over a few words: “Why…why?”

She looked at the Netherworld Demon Lord, and saw that his eyes suddenly became dull. She couldn't understand why the Netherworld Demon Lord wanted to kill her.

"You don't have to know."

The words fell.

The Demon Emperor seemed to gradually recover and said lightly.

A wisp of demonic power permeated the air in all directions, causing people to feel uneasy.

He raised his hand and slashed it towards the void, and a pitch-black long sword suddenly appeared in front of him. He flicked his fingers, and the long sword hummed and trembled, turning into a streak of light and flying towards the Drunken Immortal Hermit.

The long sword whistled, tearing the void, and with its terrifying sharpness, it pierced through the body of Zuixian Jushi, and blood splattered all over the sky.

In an instant, Zuixianjushi's purple mansion cave collapsed, his soul was shattered, and he fell completely, without a trace of his body left!!!

The Netherworld Demon Lord stared blankly at everything in front of him, a look of pain on his face.

"Hmph!" The Demon Emperor snorted coldly and took a step forward. "Since you miss her so much, let's go and accompany her together!"

The words fell.

A powerful demonic power burst out and covered the body of the Netherworld Demon Lord. Then, the Demon Emperor waved his arm, and demonic energy surged, annihilating the Netherworld Demon Lord's body, destroying both his body and soul, and turning them into nothing!

The Demon Lord of the Netherworld fell.

In the sky, only the Demon Emperor was left.

He stood alone in the void, looking extremely calm, as if one couldn't tell that he had just killed his own daughter. There was no joy or sadness on his face, as if he had just done something insignificant.

But in the next moment.

A mysterious, profound, indescribable, supreme aura brewed from his body and instantly swept across the entire sky, as if the most essential things between heaven and earth had merged into his body.

In front of this power, all things seem insignificant, like dust. Only the Demon Emperor stands between heaven and earth, eternal and immortal.

“This feeling…”

The Demon Emperor closed his eyes and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

After killing his wife and daughter one after another, he almost severed all ties with the common people, but at the same time he reached a high degree of unity with the Tao, and was finally able to take the ultimate step...

......

at the same time.

Above the sky.

Xiao Minghuang followed the traces of the source of the Southern Wilderness, chasing it all the way, traveling through the void that was who knows how far away, crossing the dark void corridors and the chaotic turbulence of time and space, until after passing through a thick boundary wall, he arrived at a silent place that made people feel very at ease.

Xiao Minghuang looked up and saw that it was a strange space.

In her field of vision, a small island emerged, floating in the unknown void. There was no sunlight here, only a sphere emitting white light suspended in the center of the island, emitting a trace of gentle and pure energy, illuminating this not-so-vast space.

This is...the origin of the Southern Wilderness!

Xiao Minghuang's heart paused for a moment, then he tapped the air with his toes and floated over.

She came here in pursuit of the source of the Southern Wasteland, and after arriving at this space, she did not encounter any rejection. Instead, the source of the Southern Wasteland emitted a soft light, illuminating her way forward.

this means...

"The source of the Southern Wasteland Realm may not reject merging with me..."

Xiao Minghuang pondered in his heart.

She knew that the most common and strongest desire of all living things in the world, regardless of race, was to prolong their own existence, and the way to achieve this desire was to improve one's own realm and then break through the limitations of human lifespan, or to take longevity pills, or some other secret methods or techniques.

If we compare this point to the world of Heavenly Dao, then there are two ways for Heavenly Dao to continue its existence.

The first is to reduce the loss of destiny in the world governed by the Heavenly Dao. The simplest and most direct way to present it is to kill a large number of high-level cultivators like the Demon Emperor did. The cultivators take the fortune of heaven and earth and add it to themselves. Once they die, the fortune will return to heaven and earth, and the Heavenly Dao can continue to exist.

The second is to expand the boundaries of the world governed by the Heavenly Dao. There are more diverse ways and methods for this, but the simplest and most effective way is to seize the boundary sources of other worlds and replenish oneself; or to seize the creatures of other worlds and replenish oneself, and so on.

Xiao Minghuang came to the source of the Southern Wilderness, stopped there, and looked at the source of the Southern Wilderness carefully.

The source of the world is the most original, essential and unique energy in the world.

Xiao Minghuang knew that there was no question of which was born first, the world or the origin of the world.

It does not mean that a world first gave birth to the source of the world, and then the source of the world gave rise to the world.

Instead, the world and the source of the world were born and formed together. The two complement each other, progress synchronously, and are indispensable.

But after the world was formally formed, the source of the world, due to its special properties, leaped above the world and gradually became the force that dominated the world. Whoever mastered the source of the world was almost equivalent to mastering the world.

However, this also depends on the adaptability of the person who integrates the world source or masters the world source.

The higher the degree of adaptation, the greater the power that can be exerted.
