Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress-Chapter 128

Chapter 128: Kill Anyone Who Crosses the Shadow

Southern Astral Domain, Ancient Tree Gorge

Within the unfathomably deep gorge, countless branches and vines intertwined, forming a dense forest. A towering tree rose from the bottom of the gorge, reaching towards the heavens, as if this endless chasm had been forcefully split open by this lush, ancient tree.

After a brief flight, Ning Yechen quickly arrived above the gorge where the Celestial Spirit Tree resided.

Looking around, all he saw were endless mountains and verdant forests stretching as far as the eye could see.

Ning Yechen believed that Penglai Fusheng wouldn’t dare to deceive him, so the Celestial Spirit Tree must be nearby.

Ning Yechen slowly closed his eyes, his divine sense spreading out like ripples on a lake, reaching thousands of miles away.

Within the range of his divine sense, every bird and beast was in plain sight, and even the faintest sounds of insects and animals reached his ears.

Soon, Ning Yechen sensed the faint traces of celestial spiritual energy emanating from the dense gorge...

So it’s here...!

Without hesitation, Ning Yechen transformed into a jet-black divine rainbow and plunged into the dense gorge.

Wherever he passed, any branches or vines that dared to obstruct him were incinerated by the black demonic mist surrounding him!

In an instant, Ning Yechen arrived before a shimmering, mystical rift.

Faint traces of pure celestial spiritual energy emanated from the rift.

Undoubtedly, the Celestial Spirit Tree was hidden within this mystical rift!

Ning Yechen tried to reach out, but a powerful, transparent golden barrier blocked his path. frёewebηovel.cѳm

The golden barrier was entirely formed from pure celestial energy, making it the natural nemesis of demonic energy.

However, demonic energy was also the nemesis of celestial energy!

They were like light and darkness, mutually opposing each other. The stronger side would naturally suppress the other!

Ning Yechen’s eyes narrowed. Demonic energy surged in his hands, forming a pair of jet-black, ornate claws!

The claws effortlessly pierced through the golden barrier. With a slight squeeze, the entire barrier shattered like glass!

Such a thing can’t stop me!

Just as Ning Yechen, with his hands clasped behind his back, was about to step into the dimensional rift, a gigantic python, its scales shimmering with seven-colored light and its body spanning a hundred meters, suddenly emerged from the depths of the gorge, its massive jaws gaping wide to bite him!

Ning Yechen’s eyes flashed coldly. He reached out and grasped the python’s vital point, squeezing it with his palm, instantly crushing it!

The seven-colored celestial python’s head separated from its body, plummeting into the gorge!

"Hmph, a mere early-stage Immortal Emperor Seven-Colored Celestial Python dares to seek death...!"

Ning Yechen looked down at the corpse of the python with disdain.

However, at that moment, the gorge below and the surrounding mountains trembled violently, as if the heavens and earth were about to collapse!

From afar, all the celestial beasts and divine beasts within the hundreds of thousands of miles of mountains started to rush towards Ning Yechen!

Among them were many ancient beasts with Immortal Emperor cultivation!

It seemed they were all guardian beasts tasked with protecting the Celestial Spirit Tree...

Since they all seek death, I shall grant their wish!

"Come forth!"

Ning Yechen didn’t want to waste another second dealing with these insects, so he called out coldly.

As his voice fell, the shadow beneath his feet expanded like a barrier, covering a thousand miles!

From within the shadow, a gigantic, towering demonic arm emerged!

Even a hundred-meter-long Kunpeng divine bird seemed minuscule in front of the giant palm and was instantly crushed into a bloody mist in mid-air!

Another demonic being, its body composed of jet-black rocks and its surface burning with dark flames, crawled out from the shadow. It opened its mouth and spewed a hundred-meter-long stream of black flames towards the celestial beasts and divine beasts in front of it!

Any celestial or divine beast touched by the black flames turned into skeletons amidst agonizing screams!

This wasn’t the end. Various apostles and demonic beings continued to emerge from the shadow, annihilating all living creatures within a hundred miles of the shadow!

Countless Spirit Devouring Insects filled the sky, like a dark cloud swirling above.

Any approaching celestial or divine beast was instantly enveloped by the Spirit Devouring Insects, leaving no trace behind, devoured completely!

Several mysterious figures, cloaked in black robes with their faces obscured, also flew out from the shadow. Their movements were erratic like shadows, yet their hands unleashed devastating celestial techniques!

Even Immortal Emperor level celestial beasts and divine beasts were severely injured and crashed to the ground after a single touch!

This overwhelming demonic energy and terrifying aura weren’t only sensed within the Southern Astral Domain; even the nearby Immortal Domains felt it.

Countless powerful beings in seclusion throughout the Heavenly Realm were startled and emerged from their closed-door cultivation, rushing towards the scene!

Such a terrifying demonic might, could it be that the Demon Realm was invading again?!

Tens of thousands of Heavenly Realm cultivators gathered fearfully three hundred miles away from the shadow cast by Ning Yechen, not daring to approach any closer...

Flame demons, wind demons, and various other demonic beings, countless Spirit Devouring Insects, numerous demonic beasts from the Demon Realm, and several mysterious figures whose cultivation was definitely no lower than Immortal Emperors...

If they ventured in, they might face instant death...!

Seeing this terrifying display, everyone knew that this was undoubtedly the work of the Demon Lord, the Night Demon God.

Only he could summon such a massive army of apostles and demonic beings with his own power.

The most terrifying part was that the demonic apostles under his shadow were countless; no one knew how many there were...

It was said that any creature killed and swallowed by the shadow beneath his feet would become his apostle, under his command.

And many of those demonic beings and apostles possessed cultivation levels no lower than theirs...

The demonic arm that had briefly emerged from the shadow, spanning over a thousand meters, was part of the Demon Lord’s Demonic Sovereign Manifestation.

So far, no one had ever witnessed the complete form of the Demon Lord’s Manifestation.

Just a single arm was enough to exert immense pressure on everyone present...!

And that was just one arm!

"Kill anyone who crosses the shadow."

Ning Yechen sensed the continuous arrival of immortals and coldly ordered the apostles and demonic beings emerging from his shadow.

Upon receiving the command, all the apostles and demonic beings stood still, their eyes fixed on the surrounding cultivators and celestial beasts.

The celestial beasts and divine beasts weren’t foolish. Witnessing the complete slaughter of the creatures ahead, the remaining ones retreated in fear.

Some even fled in all directions.

The surrounding cultivators couldn’t help but gulp, silently stepping back.

Unless the Immortal Ancestors from the few reclusive clans in the Heavenly Realm joined forces, it was unlikely that anyone could stand against the Demon Lord...

Everyone present who had experienced the previous Heavenly-Demon War deeply understood this.

They could only pray silently that the Demon Lord wouldn’t harm the Celestial Spirit Tree.
