Chapter 1278: The Millennial Battle
"Since this is a dragon vein formation, the place with the strongest dragon vein energy should obviously be at the dragon's head," Lin Feng murmured to himself. The mountain range they were standing on was the dragon's head direction, littered with many bones.
"At the very center of the dragon's head, over there!" Qing Mengxin pointed in a certain direction. The boundless, massive demonic dragon coiled and wound its way around, ultimately returning to the junction with the Xi Emperor's Small World at the center of the dragon's head. Its head raised to the sky, it looked like a true demonic dragon.
"What a peculiar Small World. It seems the construction of Small Worlds also has its own unique wonders," Lin Feng said. He stepped forward and headed straight for the junction between the two Small Worlds. There, a black mountain range seemed to open its mouth slightly like a dragon's maw, breathing out demonic energy. Lin Feng arrived at the demonic dragon's mouth and found it to be incredibly deep and extremely dark, as if containing a terrifying demonic aura.
"It really might be the Demon Emperor's cultivation ground. However, the demonic energy here is so strong that some people have come but dare not enter, afraid of being corroded by it!" Lin Feng glanced at Qing Mengxin beside him. She smiled bitterly and said, "I definitely can't go in. My cultivation is too weak!"
"I'll go down and take a look!" Lin Feng focused his mind, then leaped into the demonic cavern. A terrifying wave of demonic energy rushed toward him, extremely dense.
The deep demonic cavern was immeasurably deep. Lin Feng's body kept falling, and it took quite a while before he landed on a vast expanse of land—a demonic land.
"A demonic path!" Lin Feng's expression tightened. The vast, endless demonic land stretched out to who knows where. Although the light here was dim, it was clear enough not to affect vision. But every inch of land was demonic soil. Ahead, the demonic path extended into the distance, and even his divine sense could not penetrate through it. He had no idea how far it went—it was a demonic path.
"A true Demon Emperor's cave dwelling!" Lin Feng's mind trembled. On this demonic land stood towering demonic trees. Each demonic tree was a treasure for demonic cultivators. These were demonic Bodhi trees born from the enlightenment of powerful demonic cultivators, bearing demonic Bodhi fruits.
"It's the same as beside the Three Lives Demon Emperor in the Valley of Death back then. Except the Three Lives Demon Emperor was sealed, while this is the Demon Emperor's true cultivation ground. Therefore, each demonic Bodhi tree is even more terrifying, containing a fearsome demonic nature. It's as if observing the Bodhi tree can lead one into the demonic path," Lin Feng murmured to himself. This was equivalent to the Buddhist Bodhi tree and Bodhi fruits.
"Bodhi seeds and Bodhi fruits—all collected!" Lin Feng grasped a demonic Bodhi tree, conjured a giant hand, and suddenly pulled. With a loud crack, a demonic Bodhi tree was uprooted and stored in his Storage Ring.
Now, powerful cultivators from all sides were gathering to search for treasures. Even if he left these demonic Bodhi trees behind, they would belong to others, so he might as well take them all.
Rumbling sounds echoed continuously. Surging demonic energy rolled and churned as one demonic Bodhi tree after another was uprooted and collected by Lin Feng.
Soon, all the demonic Bodhi trees in this area were taken by him, leaving only the last one—an incredibly massive demonic Bodhi tree with gnarled roots and intertwined branches, as terrifying as a coiled dragon. The rolling demonic energy emanating from it made even Lin Feng feel a sense of shock. The Bodhi fruits on it were enormous.
"This single Bodhi tree alone would drive a powerful demonic sect mad," Lin Feng said, stepping forward. The overwhelming demonic energy made him feel suffocated, as if he were about to be drowned in it.
"Hmm?" At that moment, Lin Feng felt a terrifying force blocking his advance, preventing him from moving forward. It was as if a fearsome forbidden demonic power was at work.
On his palm, waves of demonic energy rolled and churned. He suddenly swung his hand forward, and a booming sound rang out, as if the forbidden power had shattered. The force blocking Lin Feng's path dissipated.
"What is this?" Lin Feng's pupils suddenly contracted. There, beneath that massive demonic Bodhi tree, two figures had appeared. Neither of them released any aura, but the terrifying demonic will emanating from them deeply shocked Lin Feng.
"Nine Nether Demon Emperor!" Lin Feng's eyes froze. The person sitting near the demonic Bodhi tree was none other than the Nine Nether Demon Emperor—the demonic grand emperor who stood proudly above the Nine Heavens, whose melody of the Nine Nether caused the sky to tremble.
"The Nine Nether Demon Emperor is still here. Who is the other person, confronting him?" Lin Feng's expression stiffened. Across from the Nine Nether Demon Emperor sat another figure, also a demonic cultivator. His gaze was calm and indifferent as he stared back at the Nine Nether Demon Emperor. Lin Feng could not see any trace of fear or dread in those eyes.
"A demonic cultivator who dares to confront the Nine Nether Demon Emperor—who is this?" Lin Feng was utterly shocked. He had witnessed the terror of the Nine Nether Demon Emperor with his own eyes. This was someone who dared to oppose the Sealing Demon Emperor, the one known as the strongest sealing emperor under heaven, capable of sealing gods and demons.
"Whoosh!" A terrifying aura shot into the sky, causing Lin Feng's eyes to tremble violently. The two demonic figures soared into the sky, rushing toward the outer edge of the dragon's head.
"The demonic Bodhi tree!" Lin Feng's gaze sharpened. He stepped forward and arrived at the base of the boundless, massive demonic Bodhi tree. A terrifying Skyless Demon Palm imprint shot out, transforming into an enormous hand that firmly gripped the demonic Bodhi tree.
"Rise!" Lin Feng roared. The ground trembled with a deep rumble, and a terrifying demonic aura seemed ready to drown him.
But with such a massive demonic Bodhi tree in hand, how could he give it up? Lin Feng knew that the figures he had just seen were not the real Nine Nether Demon Emperor—they were projections, projections of will. Most likely, they were a scene that had occurred here in the past, now re-emerging as he shattered the Bodhi tree.
"Rise!" Lin Feng roared again. The demonic land shook violently. With overwhelming force, the demonic Bodhi tree finally loosened, about to be uprooted.
"Boom!" A trembling sound rang out as the demonic Bodhi tree was lifted. A smile appeared in Lin Feng's eyes. He stored it away, then looked up at the void and shot into the sky.
He wanted to see what kind of figure dared to confront the Nine Nether Demon Emperor.
Outside, Qing Mengxin saw two terrifying demonic cultivators burst forth and was left speechless. She stared blankly at the void above. One of them was the Nine Nether Demon Emperor.
"Is he dead?" Qing Mengxin glanced toward the massive demonic cavern. But at that moment, a figure shot up from it, causing her beautiful eyes to freeze. She called out, "Senior!"
Lin Feng smiled and nodded at Qing Mengxin, then turned his gaze to the sky. There, the two demonic figures were still staring at each other, their demonic robes fluttering in the wind.
Within the Small World, countless figures saw what was happening and rushed over, looking up at the demonic figures in the void. The Nine Nether Demon Emperor had reappeared!
"It's a reappearance of battle will!" Many people exclaimed. Two terrifying figures had once clashed here. Though countless years had passed, their battle will remained undying, sealed away until now, when it was triggered and re-emerged.
"Who is that?" Many people murmured, looking at the figure opposite the Nine Nether Demon Emperor. This person wore a long robe, stood with his hands behind his back, his head touching the sky and his feet treading the earth. In his calm eyes was a domineering aura that seemed to look down upon the universe, as if he roamed the Nine Heavens, trampled through the ages, and was unrivaled and supreme.
"This person's aura is in no way inferior to the Nine Nether Demon Emperor. A truly top-tier powerhouse—I wonder what level he is!" Waves of shock surged in many people's hearts. To face the Nine Nether Demon Emperor so calmly and composedly, standing with hands behind his back—what arrogance!
Moreover, this was the Nine Nether Demon Emperor's Small World. That meant this person had charged into the Demon Emperor's Small World to spar with him in the demonic path.
Lin Feng looked at the two figures in the void. The rolling demonic energy within him was almost out of control, surging wildly. His eyes were sharp and fierce, his demonic aura overwhelming. Qing Mengxin beside him stepped back, shocked. This senior at the Eighth Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm was terrifying—this aura was far more than that of the Eighth Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm; even a Venerable could be drowned by it!
But Lin Feng no longer noticed anyone else. His attention was fixed solely on the two figures in the void. The Nine Nether Demon Emperor's pupils were icy cold, his demonic intent boundless—a grand emperor spanning the ages, shaking the Nine Nether. Yet the person opposite him dared to contend with him.
"The First Emperor of the Ages, the Demon Emperor's true form!" At this moment, a faint murmur rang out, striking like a thunderbolt in the hearts of the crowd. The First Emperor of the Ages—the Demon Emperor!
The figure confronting the Nine Nether Demon Emperor was the Demon Emperor. And this confrontation had likely occurred a thousand years ago!
PS: Damn, I went out yesterday, and the power went out this morning. I'm freaking out. My apologies, brothers, please bear with me!
