# Chapter 1569: Battle the Demon Emperor Again
The Nine Immortal Palaces and Heavenly Fortresses whispered, and the news that the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace was located in the Four Symbols Region spread, becoming known to many. However, countless people were puzzled in their hearts—the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace was actually in the Four Symbols Region.
It might sound somewhat ridiculous. In the past, when the Wuji Heavenly Emperor was alive, the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace was the most terrifying force in the Four Symbols Region. After the Wuji Heavenly Emperor fell, the palace manifested, and the Heavenly Emperor's disciples along with his enemies turned the entire Four Symbols Region upside down searching for it. Yet there was absolutely no trace of the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace. And now, the place pointed to by the Wuji Copper Fragment happened to be precisely where the former Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace was located.
On the way back to Yaoye Island, Divine Feather Martial Emperor briefly explained things to Lin Feng, who then understood what was happening. No wonder those Mid-rank Emperor experts had furrowed their brows and found it unbelievable when they saw the Imperial Palace Map back then.
Even more interesting was that Divine Feather Martial Emperor also told Lin Feng another piece of news—the true location of the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace in the image.
In the Four Symbols Region, outside the Immortal Mountain where the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace once stood, there was a death ground, a path that could make one face nine deaths and only one chance at life. And the address marked on the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace was precisely this death ground. This left Lin Feng speechless for a time. Was the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace actually located within a death ground? This explanation made it reasonable why those experts had turned the entire Four Symbols Region upside down without finding the Wuji Heavenly Emperor Palace.
But even so, Lin Feng still planned to make a trip to the Four Symbols Region. At least he wanted to take a look first. If it truly was a matter of nine deaths and one life, purely gambling on luck, then he would give up. His tenacious martial dao heart made him unafraid of hardships and dangers, but he wouldn't go so far as to bet his life on luck.
Of course, Lin Feng wouldn't rush to go. He would strive to improve his strength a bit more on Yaoye Island.
On Yaoye Island, in front of a thatched cottage in a forested area, a beautiful woman was preparing medicine. This reminded Lin Feng of Old Man Xiao. In the past, Old Man Xiao had also been meticulous and extremely focused with herbs. For a powerful pharmacist, medicine was their second life.
Although Yun'er was not a pharmacist, she also loved preparing medicine.
"Lin Feng!" Mu Yun saw Lin Feng approaching, and a gentle smile appeared in her beautiful eyes. On the other side of the thatched cottage sat an old man. This old man's body was bent, but it seemed very natural, as if he had been born that way. Because his original form was a Fire-Eyed Demon Monkey, even though he appeared aged, his eyes were red, like fire.
"Senior Fire-Eye!" Lin Feng called out to the old demon monkey.
"En." The old demon monkey nodded. He had always been fond of silence, still leaning against the front of the cottage, his flame-like eyes fixed on Mu Yun.
"Yun'er, I might not be able to come see you for a while. I plan to go into seclusion for some time, then leave Yaoye Island for a long journey." Lin Feng had come to say goodbye to Yun'er, so she wouldn't come looking for him later. When he was cultivating, Yun'er often came to bring him some fruits or medicine that could help his body.
"En, be careful out there yourself." Yun'er smiled and nodded, her gaze still gentle and pure.
"Although Yaoye Island is a demon island, compared to the human world, it actually has a bit more simplicity," Lin Feng said softly, looking at Yun'er's gentle smile. Then he also sat down on the ground. Although powerful demon beasts often clashed on the island, those demon beasts were very straightforward—if they weren't happy, they would fight it out. On ordinary days, when they met, they would roar at each other, making it especially interesting. There was much less darkness, no scheming against each other. Of course, Lin Feng thought this way also because all the demons treated him very well. Even though they often tormented him, it was all to improve his strength.
"So you think so too. This place is very suitable for me," Yun'er said with a smile. Seeing Lin Feng sit down on the ground, he lazily lay down there. Although Yaoye Island was good, it could only improve his strength temporarily, not permanently. To become strong, he still needed external tempering. No one could become a peerless expert by hiding away and cultivating forever. No matter how strong one's talent, they would eventually encounter bottlenecks.
They chatted idly for a while. Lin Feng stayed there for about two hours, then got up and left, beginning a period of seclusion and bitter cultivation. He didn't cultivate his realm, only seeking combat power. He continued to comprehend the various essence powers, striving to elevate his essence to an absolute level of strength. Apart from becoming an emperor, realm no longer held much meaning for him. Therefore, even if he raised his realm to the Ninth Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm, it wouldn't help much for this long journey. It was better to sublimate his combat power further.
One month later, on a vast sea, mountains crumbled and the earth split apart. Terrifying cracking sounds pierced through heaven and earth.
"Roar!" The Earth Demon Ape roared up to the sky, releasing overwhelming demonic intent from his body. His steps stomped fiercely, and he began to run rapidly. His running was like an earth fissure—the ground beneath his feet cracked apart piece by piece, creating deep, terrifying crevices that spread continuously.
"Boom!" A demonic palm print covered heaven and earth. Endless giant palm shadows appeared above Lin Feng, like falling meteors, covering an area of a hundred meters in all directions. Moreover, the speed of the palm prints was extremely fast.
"Wind's Chant!" Lin Feng's body became like true wind, with spatial fluctuations as well. This was the result of comprehending Wind Essence to its extreme, combined with the countless temperings in the Hurricane Canyon and infusing Space Essence into it. He was the wind, the wind's chant—in an instant, he had disappeared.
"Where do you think you're running!" The Earth Demon Ape's hand suddenly clenched. Terrifying Earth Law transformed into an earth palm print, also like an earth prison. As a Martial Emperor expert, he could merge his law power into this entire void. The thousandfold momentum made the void his to control. He could easily mobilize the law power of this void, transforming it into attack power.
"Earth Split!" As the wind passed by, a gentle palm strike was sent out, as if following the wind. The prison palm print formed by law power scattered with the wind, turning to dust, vanishing into thin air. Meanwhile, Lin Feng's body almost didn't stop at all, drifting with the wind outside the range of the attack.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The falling palm prints struck the ground, creating an enormous deep pit. The Earth Demon Ape continued to roll and surge forward. Wherever he passed, his own attacks were directly shattered by his momentum. His hand covered in overwhelming demonic energy, he threw another punch. At the same time, his other hand suddenly clenched, and a domineering, unmatched demonic power pressed down on Lin Feng. He didn't believe he couldn't crush Lin Feng.
"Chi!" A heaven-defying sword light flashed with unimaginable speed, as if it had directly sliced through that oppressive force. Lin Feng's figure once again drifted out like the wind, once again evading outside his attack range.
"Boom!" The Earth Demon Ape stomped on the ground, leaving an enormous footprint, and his body finally stopped. His huge pupils glared angrily at Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, your speed is too damn annoying!" The Earth Demon Ape's rough voice rumbled. He was very frustrated. He had a body full of terrifying attack power, but he couldn't hit Lin Feng. Lin Feng was too fast, and the thousandfold momentum was now ineffective against him. The power he excelled at was close-quarters combat. When remotely mobilizing law power for attacks, because the attacks weren't strong enough, Lin Feng could break through them. So now, he was helpless against Lin Feng.
This was purely bullying him for being slow. How could the Earth Demon Ape not be angry?
Of course, no matter how slow a Martial Emperor's speed was, it should still be much faster than a Sovereign Lord's. But because the Earth Demon Ape was a demon emperor who excelled in power but not speed, and Lin Feng's speed was abnormal, the result was that the Earth Demon Ape, a demon emperor, wasn't as fast as Lin Feng.
"Not bad. Finally, I don't have to be tormented by you anymore!" Lin Feng said with a smile. In the past, he had come to this island many times and had been tormented miserably by the Earth Demon Ape. At first, if the Earth Demon Ape got serious, one punch through the air would directly suppress him, blasting him until he couldn't get up. But now, he could already protect himself well.
"Not playing anymore!" The Earth Demon Ape spat out roughly.
"Hey, old buddy, let me have a try too!" As Lin Feng's voice fell, his body had already rushed out with the wind. Fast, so fast that only the shadow of the wind remained.
"Explode!" Lin Feng's fist landed on the Earth Demon Ape's broad chest. A dazzling light rushed in all directions. The terrifying power made the Earth Demon Ape pause for a moment. Then he raised his head, looking at Lin Feng's small figure in front of him.
"Boom!" The Earth Demon Ape's body shook violently, sending Lin Feng flying back. Rumbling sounds rolled as his steps retreated several paces. He extended his huge hand, slightly covering his chest. It hurt!
Raising his head, the Earth Demon Ape looked at Lin Feng with some disbelief, then opened his huge mouth, grinning as he said, "Little buddy, you can go out and take a walk now!"
"That's exactly what I intend to do. Old buddy, see you next time!" Lin Feng's figure flickered. With his back to the Earth Demon Ape, he waved his hand. In the blink of an eye, he had disappeared. Watching Lin Feng leave, the Earth Demon Ape grinned. This guy was getting more and more abnormal!
