Legend of the Great Sage

Chapter 1437: Demon Sovereign



The Yin Demon fell on the ground, almost on the verge of collapsing, but his gaze was still proud. He grabbed the demon heart that resembled black glass marble and wanted to throw it far away, but he still decided to keep it after some thought.

This item was condensed with a terrifying amount of power. Even the dragon pearl he had obtained from Lin Xuan’s corpse came nowhere close.

And the greatest difference was as long as he wanted to, he could merge with the power at any time and become a Demon Sovereign at the very least.

Basically no one could resist the temptation of absolute power. It did not require any effort, and he could easily change everything. As long as he let his guard down for a split second, he could kill his way back to Black Cloud city, killing that glowing monk first before blasting that annoying Li Liehuo to pieces, and then fucking the arrogant Chao Tianjiao as many times as he wanted to.

Demon God Qiongqi was still a threat, but as long as he accepted this power, the sixth and seventh heavenly tribulations would all be within his reach, so what was there still to fear?

All of his desires could be satisfied, and all of his fears would be resolved. Just who could resist something as great as that?

However, Li Qingshan basically did not even budge. Without any hesitation, he used everything he had to dig out the demon heart.

That was because many years ago, someone had given him a similar choice. Back then, he had nothing at all. He only needed to nod, and he would obtain the entirety of the nine provinces, yet he chose to set off on his own path in the end, a path that was extraordinarily dangerous but also extraordinarily fascinating. From that moment onwards, he never hesitated over such choices again. This was a part of his pride.

“I will come and take whatever I want myself.”

He climbed up and continued onwards against the wind and snow.

At the same time, in Black Wind city.

Green vines climbed over the tall, cold stone tower, blooming with flowers, which attracted a lot of attention. They all gestured at it and discussed away.

Li Liehuo gazed up and snorted coldly. The kid is not leaving the city for the mission and stirring up some other fuss instead.

That was the effects of Li Qingshan using the qilin’s ability, the Cycle of Life and Growth, at a critical moment, using the path to nature to pacify the restless inner demons.

It was even more lush within the tower that was as warm as spring, blooming with flowers and verdant plants.

Xiao An asked in concern, “Qingshan?”

Li Qingshan opened his eyes and explained what had happened.

“Qingshan, you must not accept it, or it’s very likely for your Yin Demon to completely break free from your control and run wild, becoming a great monster that’s merged with the divine will of Maheśvara, your memories and thoughts, and the will of the Demon domain. Not only is there no benefit to you, but it’s very likely for it to affect you instead.”

Li Qingshan sat between the lush plants and smiled. “Don’t worry, I’m not that foolish.” He plucked an unknown red flower and placed it behind Xiao An’s ear. “I will always be the same Li Qingshan in your eyes.”

Xiao An lowered her head like she was embarrassed. She said gently, “As long as you’re yourself.”

“If I didn’t have you watching over me, I’d probably be extremely brutal and vicious right now.”

In the beginning, he just wanted to serve as a good role model for her and not raise her incorrectly, but it seemed to be useless in the end. Instead, he had benefited from contact with her.

……

Under the glow of the black sun, the vast tundra was interrupted by a great mountain. The winds whistled between the valley. A fortress stood there, opposing Black Cloud city in the distance.

Compared to the exquisite design of Black Cloud city, this place seemed extremely crude and simple. The entire place was littered with corpses and blood trickled away like streams. Howls rose and fell, constantly echoing through the valley.

Terrifying slashes criss-crossed basically every corner of the fortress.

Just recently, a woman had barged into the fortress with a black-furred hou, carrying out a massacre.

Demonfolk were usually the ones on the offence, and this place was located deep within the Demon domain, so they did not place much emphasis on defence. They obviously did not have a protective formation like the Formation of Black Clouds and Roaring Thunder. There was an army stationed here, but mobilising it required time.

They were completely unable to respond to the sudden attack. The Demon Sovereign watching this place had been split in half in a single stroke.

“Trash, you’re all trash!”

A huge, vicious beast covered in wounds roared as it crushed countless demonfolk that were unable to dodge under its feet.

A while later, it transformed into an ugly, twisted man who gasped for air. An extremely eye-catching wound ran down his forehead, reaching his crotch. His eyes were still filled with fear. If he had not been in the Demon domain, but in the battlefield up ahead or beneath Black Cloud city, he would have died already.

Fortunately, he had demonified immediately, using his colossal, tenacious physique to endure the damage and buy time, lasting until the woman ran out of momentum and proactively retreated. That was the only reason why he had survived.

However, he had still almost been forced into demonifying completely, turning into a demonic beast. It took a while of killing and venting before he managed to pacify his violent demon heart slightly.

He ground his teeth. “Chao Tianjiao.”

Thousands of tortures and countless scenes of abuse flashed through his head, igniting a ruthless desire. However, his imperial palace had already been reduced to ruins, and most of the female demons he enjoyed had been crushed in there.

With a swivel of his black eyes, he casually grabbed a female demonic beast and threw himself on it.

The demonic beast struggled and wailed as bolder demonfolk gathered over to cheer him on, praising his masculinity. Before long, they had formed a sizable audience, and their voices rose and fell, echoing through the valley and drowning out the howls. They actually recovered some of their morale.

The bizarreness of the Demon domain and the twistedness of demonfolk would always be unimaginable.

At this moment, the black sun in the sky abruptly lit up, shooting a streak of black light towards the tundra in the distance. It did not last for very long.

Everyone and everything raised their heads. Even though not all of them had heard about the legend of the Black Sun Demon Heart, they were all dazed. They felt a strong urge to go to where the light had fallen.

That applied to the Demon Sovereign who was going at the demonic beast in particular. He had heard of the legend of the Black Sun Demon heart before. He was extremely tempted.

Those that were chosen by the heavens in the Demon domain were known as demonic seeds. The birth of every demonic seed would lead to a slaughter among the demonfolk nearby, and the Black Sun Demon Heart was enough to drive the entire Demon domain into a frenzy.

There was another interpretation to the demon among demons, which was the demonic seed among demonic seeds. Anyone who devoured the demonic seed would become the thirteenth Demon God, or even the ruler of the Demon domain, the king among Demon Gods.

This was a heaven-sent opportunity. There were no other Demon Sovereigns closer than him. Even if it was possible to see the phenomenon from elsewhere in the Demon domain, it would be difficult to locate where the black sun had fallen. Was this his moment?

If it were not for the fear left behind by Chao Tianjiao’s attack at work, he probably would have rushed over uncontrollably already.

Right when he was about to give into his urges, a cold, dignified voice rang out.

“Tu Wancheng!”

A black, rhombus-shaped crystal rose up in the ruins slowly, hovering in the valley. It reflected a pale-white face without any features.

“Faceless Heretic God, what are your orders?”

The Demon Sovereign immediately became humble, sucking up to him like he was the lowliest demonfolk.

The Faceless Heretic God completely ignored the fortress that was in ruins. He only asked a single question, “Did you see it?”

“Yes.” The Demon Sovereign shivered.

“Clean this place up. Don’t let any news of this leak out. As for you, don’t act carelessly.”

“Yes.” The Demon Sovereign was covered in cold sweat. He understood what tidying this place up meant. In order to stop any news of this from leaking out, all of the demonfolk that had witnessed the position where the black sun fell had to die.

There was an army of two hundred thousand demonfolk stationed here, including several Demon Emperors and several dozen Demon Kings. They were also like colossal beasts. Chao Tianjiao’s risky sneak attack this time was primarily to assassinate the Demon Sovereign Tu Wancheng, so the damage she had actually caused was very little.

But now, because of that order, all of them had to die, and it had to be the commander that carried out this execution.

The expressions of the Demon Emperors changed drastically. They powered their demon hearts and fled as quickly as they could. All of the Demon Kings demonified and made use of the chaos to flee. Most of them fled in the direction of the black sun.

Before Tu Wancheng could do anything, the demon hearts of all the Demon Emperors and Demon Kings exploded together.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom… Like a series of claps of thunder, it directly claimed the lives of over ten thousand demonfolk. Large chunks of the valley collapsed, reducing the entire fortress to ruins.

The Faceless Heretic God said with ease, “I’ll leave the rest to you. Think things through. Don’t act carelessly.”

Tu Wancheng shivered all over. He understood the reason why he had not been cleansed as well was definitely not because he was a Demon Sovereign, but because he was experienced in this war zone. In particular, he understood the situation of Black Cloud city.

Then he felt excited. Black Cloud city would be done for this time, and perhaps he really would have an opportunity to make his fantasies come true, to capture that bitch Chao Tianjiao and make her suffer a fate worse than death.

Thinking up to there, Tu Wancheng turned back into a colossal beast, and the howls began to ring out once more.

The Faceless Heretic God watched all of this silently.
