Chapter 124 How High Is the Demon Lord? (5,000 Words Long Chapter)

A hundred years have brought great changes.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it may be a lifetime.

Even for cultivators, under the sixth realm, a hundred years can be considered a small half of a life.

Especially in this century, the world has changed so much, far more than in the past thousands of years.

First of all, Tianjian Mountain was leveled. This impact was far from a one-time event, but a long-lasting one.

Where is Tianjian Mountain?

That is the mountain gate of Tianjian Sect, the home of the most powerful force in the world.

Over tens of thousands of years, Tianjian Sect has given birth to more than one Tenth Realm disciple, and its influence is deeply rooted in the five realms.

Even if such a huge force were to die, it would only die slowly, and it would take tens of millions of years for it to completely decline.

But now, it was kicked flat.

More importantly, it was not just the disciples of the Tianjian Sect who died.

Before Tianjian Mountain was leveled, it was Tianjianzi's 800th birthday. At that time, Tianjian Mountain gathered all the powerful people close to Tianjian Sect.

But the result.

These powerful men were buried together with Tianjian Mountain.

This resulted in heavy losses for most of the forces in the five regions.

Next, when faced with an attack by the demonic forces, the local forces in the five regions were completely defeated.

In the first ten years of the century, the Demonic Dao accomplished the feat of unifying the five regions. You must know that even in the heyday of Tianjian Sect, many forces in the five regions surrendered, but they were only surrenders. Tianjian Sect was far from being called a unifier. Five domains.

But all this was done by the demonic forces.

To be precise, the reason why the demonic forces were able to do this was entirely because of Lin Yuan.

If Lin Yuan had not stepped on the arteries of the righteous forces in the five regions, even if the demons wanted to unify the five regions, they would have been in a tug-of-war. Even if they could unify, it would take far more than ten years.

Of course, the so-called unification of the five realms by the devil is only the unification of the five realms in terms of situation.

Secretly, there are still many remnants of the original five-domain forces, trying to launch a counterattack and take back everything they have.

But with Lin Yuan here, all resistance is in vain.

Lin Yuan didn't even leave the underground palace, and sent out his Yin God and Yang God at will, causing heavy losses to the resistance forces.

Even so, such resistance still occurs.

It's just that the intervals between each time are gradually getting longer. Obviously those who resist also know that there is absolutely no way they can be the opponent of Demon Lord Xia Houyuan.

They can only lurk in the dark and wait for opportunities.

Eastern Region, Binhai City.

Within an inn.

A storyteller was spitting.

"Some time ago, a group of strong men came to the Linhai area. They were suspected to be disciples of the Qingshui Sect a hundred years ago. This Qingshui Sect was wiped out by the demonic forces and the remaining disciples fled overseas. Now they are making a comeback. It must not be a good thing."

This storyteller was obviously very well-informed, and he actually expressed some of his own opinions.

"In my opinion, the Eastern Region is going to be uneasy again."

Mr. Speaker’s words were full of emotion.

Chaos in the world is definitely not a good thing for ordinary people like them.

In a corner of the inn, an old man with white hair and beard took a sip of wine, looking full of enjoyment.

If there is a Ninth Realm powerhouse here, you will find that this old man has an unfathomable aura and is obviously also a Ninth Realm powerhouse.

It's just that this old man is different from other strong men in the ninth realm. He doesn't compete for power or money. He just likes to travel to the five realms and appreciate fine wine.

"The sweet-scented osmanthus brewed in Binhai City is getting more and more delicious."

The old man nodded and commented.

"Oh, grandpa, don't drink."

"Did you listen to what the storyteller just said?"

"The Eastern Region is beginning to become uneasy."

A teenage girl next to him tugged on the old man's sleeve.

"oh"

The old man replied in a neutral tone and continued to taste the sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed rice.

"grandfather."

The girl suddenly became anxious and couldn't help but ask: "Do you think the five tribes will take action?"

"What's a little girl doing taking care of so many things?"

The old man glared at the girl, and when he saw tears welling up in her eyes, he quickly coaxed: "I don't know if the Eastern Region is not peaceful, but some time ago, someone from the Earth Fire Sect came to me and wanted me to take action and occupy A place that is a source of vitality.”

"ah?"

"Then grandpa agrees?"

The girl's eyes immediately became bright again.

"Of course not."

"The old man is already so old, so he might as well enjoy his old age."

The old man shook his head and said.

He doesn't have the courage to be an enemy of the Demon Lord.

Who is the Demon King? That was the most powerful man in a hundred thousand years and millions of years.

Ordinary practitioners may not understand the concept of cultivating the soul to a hundred thousand feet.

But the old man, being in the ninth level, knew the difficulty and the almost unbelievable shock.

"Let's talk again."

"The five realms in this world are ruled by demonic forces, and they are no different from before."

The old man glanced at his granddaughter, with a strange look on his face.

More than ninety years ago.

The demonic way unifies the five realms and the world.

The old man saw it all.

Originally he thought,

The hard days of all living beings are coming. After all, the world is governed by the devil. How can these five realms fare better?

All living beings are kept in captivity and become the qualifications for demon cultivators?

However, as time passed, the old man suddenly discovered that this scene never happened at all?

After the Demonic Way unified the five realms, it also took the initiative to spread a training system called Martial Arts.

This cultivation system has a low threshold, and the demonic forces have specially sent people to explain this cultivation system.

Such a good thing has never happened in the past tens of thousands of years.

In order to maintain their own status, the major forces in the five domains would never pass on their own skills.

Not to mention sending people to guide.

This is simply.

The old man couldn't describe this move.

I just felt that the thoughts of the demon king were completely beyond ordinary people.

"Grandpa, I want to go to the Central Region and visit the Demonic Holy Land." At this time, the girl whispered.

The Demonic Holy Land is the underground palace where Lin Yuan practiced.

In a hundred years, this underground palace has become a holy place in the five domains. I don't know how many practitioners have gone to pay homage.

Of course.

In order not to disturb the Demon King, all practitioners can only watch from fifty miles away from the underground palace.

"Demonic Holy Land?"

The old man hesitated.

But when he thought that he had never done anything against the Demon King over the years, his expression immediately became calm.

"Okay."

Old Weng nodded and agreed.

Under the underground palace, beside the fountain of vitality.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his breath was completely restrained at this time, and the whole person sat there, as if standing in another space.

It seemed like an illusion.

[Name: Xiahou Yuan (Lin Yuan)]

[Identity: The master of the gate of all realms]

[Bound talent: heaven-defying enlightenment]

[Current status: consciousness descends]

[Remaining residence time: 140 years]

"There are still 140 years of residence time"

Lin Yuan glanced at the illusory font below his sight and thought to himself.

Unknowingly, he has been in this world for 160 years.

More than half of the 300-year residence limit has passed quietly.

"Sixteenth realm"

Lin Yuan examined himself.

A hundred years passed, and Lin Yuan broke through two realms in a row, from the fourteenth realm to the sixteenth realm.

However, after entering the sixteenth realm, Lin Yuan felt faintly that this realm seemed to be the limit of this world.

Going up further may trigger the instinctive rejection of the world.

For example, directly exiling Lin Yuan outside the world?

"No."

"The world limit should be more than sixteen realms."

"Is it because of the 'black hole' in the north?"

Lin Yuan's thoughts surged, and his eyes looked far to the north again.

More than a hundred years ago, Lin Yuan noticed that there was a huge black hole in the extreme north, north of the endless sea.

This black hole is devouring the vitality of the world in this world at all times.

As a result, the upper limit of the strong in this world has been reduced again and again.

Fifty thousand years ago and a hundred thousand years ago, there were still traces of strong people in the eleventh realm.

However, in the past tens of thousands of years, there are very few strong people in the tenth realm.

Perhaps in tens of thousands of years, the strong people in the ninth realm will become legends.

It is precisely because of that 'black hole' that the upper limit of this world has been reduced, and it is almost impossible to accommodate Lin Yuan.

"For tens of thousands of years, every time a strong person in the tenth realm is born, he will disappear in the five domains within decades or hundreds of years, and should go to the 'black hole' in the north"

Lin Yuan looked thoughtful.

After the magic way unified the five domains, the books he could browse increased greatly, and he knew the final movements of those tenth-level masters in the past tens of thousands of years.

Just when Lin Yuan was thinking about the ‘black hole’.

As if he felt something, he made a sound of surprise, turned his eyes and looked to the east.

Under Lin Yuan’s perception, two figures were approaching stealthily thirty miles away from the underground palace.

One was an old man with the strength of the ninth level.

The other was a girl in her teens, who was looking at the underground palace with curiosity.

Lin Yuan’s eyes fell on the girl.

“The Bai family still has descendants.”

Lin Yuan closed his eyes, and a feeling of emotion rose in his heart.

The Bai family has a great origin with Xiahou Yuan. When Xiahou Yuan had not yet mastered his magic skills, he fell in love with the daughter of the Bai family. Later, because Xiahou Yuan made too many enemies, the Bai family was implicated and exterminated from top to bottom.

The Bai family has a special meaning to Xiahou Yuan.

At that time, the Tianjian Sect's 'Luan'e' used the alias Bai Qing'er to approach Xiahou Yuan, and was able to gain Xiahou Yuan's trust.

It was because of her disguised identity as the 'descendant of the Bai family bloodline'.

Otherwise, how could a cold-blooded man like Xiahou Yuan invest so much emotion in a woman? In the end, his state of mind was forced and suppressed in the eighteenth layer of the underground of the Great Abyss.

However, now.

Lin Yuan once again felt the breath of the Bai family bloodline on the girl.

This kind of bloodline is not the disguise of Bai Qing'er, but the familiarity that really comes from the depths of the bloodline.

Thirty miles outside the underground palace.

The old man was a little frightened. This place is already thirty miles away from the underground palace, much deeper than the fifty miles drawn.

"Xiaobai, are you sure it's okay to get so close?"

The old man asked again.

Originally, he brought the girl here, and like other practitioners, they slowly visited the underground palace fifty miles away.

But as the girl visited, she took the old man along a small path and entered the fifty-mile range, until now it was only thirty miles away from the underground palace.

This made the old man break out in a cold sweat. When he thought of the demon lord Xiahou Yuan who crushed Tianjianmen with one foot, thirty miles away, his legs became weak.

"Grandpa, what are you afraid of? I specifically found out about this path. Many people have walked on it just to get closer to the holy land so that they can see it better."

The girl led the way in front, her tone was extremely excited.

"Are you sure?"

The old man regretted bringing the girl here.

Although the girl was not his granddaughter, he picked her up from the wild.

But the old man's feelings for the girl were real, and he always treated her as his granddaughter.

"I'm sure."

"Before us, many people have walked this path to visit, and nothing happened."

The girl patted her chest and said.

"I hope so."

The old man calmed down and tried not to think too much.

He also saw that the road under his feet had definitely been walked by many people.

But being so close to a figure like the Demon Lord, the old man was still frightened from the bottom of his heart.

"Grandpa, you are too timid."

The girl couldn't help saying.

"Timid" The old man was helpless.

But he didn't know how to refute.

At this moment.

In front of the road where the girl and the old man were walking.

A tall man appeared silently.

The tall man stood there quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing this, the girl immediately grinned.

"Grandpa, look."

"We are not the only ones walking on this road. There are other people who want to see the holy land more closely."

The girl said immediately.

"That's good."

The old man breathed a sigh of relief.

The tall man stood there without any trace of a cultivator.

In the eyes of the old man, this is a symbol of safety. Even ordinary people are fine when they get close, so they should not have any problems either.

The girl walked along this path for such a long time without meeting anyone. Now she met a tall man and immediately went up to chat with him: "Are you here to see the holy land too?"

"See the holy land?"

The tall man turned his head, glanced at the girl, and did not answer.

"Don't be embarrassed. Who else would come here except to see the holy land?"

The girl thought the tall man was shy, so she went over and said: "It's a good thing that we meet. You can follow us. My grandfather is very powerful. He is a great master of the Five Realms."

The girl made an invitation.

The tall man was indifferent. He neither agreed nor refused.

This gave the girl a headache. What's wrong with this man? He was like a mute. Did he understand what she said?

"Let me tell you this, my grandfather is a ninth-level expert. Do you know what the ninth level is?"

The girl couldn't help but speak from the bottom of her heart, revealing her family background, "In the Five Domains, there are no more than a hundred ninth-level experts, and my grandfather is one of them. You follow us, and you don't have to worry about your safety."

"Were you picked up by your grandfather?"

At this time, the tall man finally spoke, his voice was low and magnetic.

He did not find the breath of the Bai family bloodline on the old man.

"Ah?"

"How do you know?"

The girl opened her eyes wide, she was sure that she had not told the tall man about this.

"Could it be that you are..."

The girl's eyes lit up, "You are a fortune teller, you can see the relative right and wrong, and you found out that I am not grandpa's granddaughter at once?"

"Xiaobai." The old man found something faintly, his voice trembled a little, and he didn't even dare to look directly at the tall man.

But at this time his voice was extremely small, and the girl didn't notice it at all.

"I didn't expect you to be so capable. I always thought those fortune tellers were all liars."

The girl became interested. The tall man could tell at a glance that she had no blood relationship with the old man, which was obviously not simple.

"Come on."

"Help me calculate when I can become a strong man like grandpa."

The girl stood on tiptoe, patted the tall man's shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, as long as you calculate correctly, you will get a lot of benefits. I tell you, my grandpa has a lot of treasures, just take one."

"Xiaobai." The old man next to him saw that the girl dared to pat the tall man's shoulder, and his blood and qi attacked his heart for a while, and his consciousness began to blur.

And just when the girl stood on tiptoe and patted the tall man's shoulder.

The air froze faintly.

One after another, figures appeared around.

The aura exuded by each figure was the peak of the ninth realm.

A full twenty strong men at the peak of the ninth realm stood quietly not far away.

The aura exuded by the leading figure even surpassed the ninth realm.

It's just that these figures appeared behind the girl, and the girl's strength was low, so she didn't feel anything unusual, so she didn't know anything yet.

However, the girl didn't know, but the old man next to her felt it clearly. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his legs kept shaking, and he almost knelt down on the spot.

"Retreat."

The tall man put his hands behind his back and said calmly.

Suddenly.

All the figures that appeared disappeared quickly as if they had received an imperial decree.

The path returned to its original state again.

Only the old man knew what had happened just now.

He and the girl almost walked through the gates of hell.

"You look like an old friend of mine."

The tall man smiled slightly.

He raised his hand and touched the girl's head.

"Oh"

The girl didn't know why it was like this. Facing the tall man's resemblance, she didn't even have any consciousness of resistance, and stood there blankly.

"Go back."

"Practice well."

The tall man raised his right hand.

With a light wave.

The old man and the girl felt a black screen in front of their eyes.

When they opened their eyes again, they found that they had returned to fifty miles away again.

"Grandpa, what's this?"

The girl was a little confused.

She didn't react for a long time.

What's going on.

Wasn't he just chatting with that tall man?

"Xiaobai!!!"

Only the old man came to his senses.

He grabbed the girl's collar.

Then——

He ran wildly in the opposite direction of the underground palace.

After several hours.

Tens of thousands of miles away from the underground palace.

The old man stopped.

His face was still full of fear.

"Do you know who that was just now?"

The old man took a deep breath and raised his right hand to slap the girl, but in the end he couldn't bear to do it.

"Ah?"

"Who is he?"

The girl blinked.

At this time, she also reacted vaguely.

"Demon Lord."

"He is Demon Lord Xiahou Yuan."

The old man said in a trembling voice.

"He is Demon Lord?"

Xiaobai opened his eyes again.

After a long time.

Xiaobai suddenly thought of a question.

I was embarrassed to ask this question before, but I just met the Demon Lord and he is not dead yet, so I naturally want to ask it.

"Grandpa."

"Others say that Demon Lord Xiahou Yuan is unpredictable."

"How tall is he?"

The girl looked at the old man expectantly.

"How tall?"

The old man seemed to see the tall man again.

"Should be."

"Should be as tall as the sky."
