Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The ancient town was very quiet.

The other streets were already deserted, the sea creatures having all fled, scurrying away like stray dogs.

The buildings in the town were destroyed in the aftermath of the great battle, turning the place into ruins, a scene of broken walls and debris.

This was still after Jun Wuxie had deliberately controlled the battle, obliterating most of the electric dragon king's lightning aftermath, otherwise within a hundred miles, there would be nothing left but scorched earth.

Those innocent mortals who were temporarily living around the ancient town would inevitably be affected, reduced to ashes.

He looked at the blood energy barrier.

Su Xiaoxiao was still in the process of recovery and awakening.

He wondered if she would regain her past memories after she woke up.

If she recovered her memories, would she still be the same Su Xiaoxiao as before, and what would her attitude be towards him and others?

"It's really strange, if it weren't for this electric eel, I would have almost forgotten about the lightning tribulation…"

He turned his thoughts back to himself, and then he remembered a problem that he had overlooked.

In the Xuanyuan Secret Realm, he broke through several major realms, and he originally thought that the Heavenly Dao order was isolated inside, so there was no tribulation. After coming out, he would inevitably be unable to suppress it and would undergo the tribulation as soon as possible.

At that time, as soon as he came out, he encountered the high-level members of the Tianjing Sect and other forces who were arrogant there, which attracted his mind and he forgot about the tribulation.

It wasn't until today that he remembered that he had never undergone the tribulation!

"What's going on?"

He looked at the sky, completely puzzled.

This was too abnormal.

Every martial artist will have a lightning tribulation when breaking through the Zongwang realm. As long as they can survive it, they will benefit greatly from the tribulation, and their aptitude growth strength will be improved to some extent.

In the future, Zonghuang, Shengzong, and Bansheng will face lightning tribulations for every major realm breakthrough.

But he became a special case?

"Forget it, if there is no lightning tribulation, then there isn't."

He stopped thinking about it, anyway, he couldn't figure it out now, so why waste his energy.

"Everyone, let's talk about your understanding of that secret place?" Jun Wuxie walked to the front of the blood energy circle and sat down, saying, "I wonder if you have seen my two junior brothers?"

"We have seen those two, and we even saw them before Xiaoxiao came out. They were safe at that time, but…"

The two Shengzongs hesitated here, and couldn't help sighing.

"But what?"

Jun Wuxie's eyes twitched.

"In that secret place, a void vortex appeared briefly. The two of them happened to encounter it at that time, and they were swept into the vortex before they could escape. According to our speculation, that vortex should be the energy condensed from the overflowing power of the seal deep in the secret place."

"Someone saw a vague landscape in that vortex, a scene suspected to be the core area of the secret land. The two junior brothers of Sect Leader Jun have most likely been swept into the core area of the secret land."

"Sect Leader Jun doesn't actually need to worry. The depths of that secret land have not been opened yet. Your two junior brothers will at least not encounter competitors of the same generation. What they have to deal with is only the potential crisis hidden in the secret land itself. As long as they are cautious and don't easily venture forward, there shouldn't be any problems."

A young genius analyzed it this way.

Jun Wuxie nodded. Xu Daoling and Kongxu were accidentally swept into the core area this time. It is difficult to say whether it is a blessing or a curse.

Everyone has their own opportunities, and perhaps they can really get their own chance this time.

Now that the core area of the secret land has not been opened, it is useless for him to worry.

"By the way, I heard that someone saw a peerless treasure. I wonder how much you know about it?"

"The information we know is also very limited. We have never witnessed it with our own eyes, and we have only heard people talk about it. However, we have heard a saying, but we don't know if it is true."

Jun Wuxie asked: "What saying?"

"Someone accidentally obtained a legend about the secret land in an old village near the secret land. According to the old people in that village, in the endless years ago, demons lived in that secret land, and it was a place where demon clans gathered."

"Demon clan?" Jun Wuxie was stunned and said, "How do you know? What basis do the people in that village have for saying this?"

"Their ancestors once saw a broken stone tablet in front of the secret land. The blurred characters engraved on it were the unique characters of the demon clan."

"Can they understand demon script?"

"One of their ancestors once studied demon script and recognized some of it." The man said here, carefully glanced at Jun Wuxie, and said, "There is also…"

"What else is there?"

"There is also an eye. Their ancestors once saw a pattern of an eye on the broken stone tablet engraved with demon script. Even after a long time, that eye still flickered with a faint purple light…"

"What did you say?"

Jun Wuxie was almost startled to stand up.

The genius was immediately startled, and said incoherently: "Sect Leader Jun, don't be angry, I don't mean to offend the Charming Eyes bloodline, and I'm not saying that the Charming Eyes bloodline is demon blood… I…"

"What are you afraid of?" Jun Wuxie was speechless and said, "Am I that scary?"

"No, of course not."

The genius smiled sheepishly, but he slandered in his heart. Is that what you call scary? That's called ferocious, it's just too ferocious!

"It seems that the legend is not false." An elder Shengzong from the Yaowang Sect said: "A long time ago, there was a saying in the world that the ancestors of the Charming Eyes clan had a little demon clan blood flowing in their bodies. They are not pure human bloodlines. Now it seems that this saying may not be a rumor."

Jun Wuxie was silent.

He did not doubt the authenticity of this statement, after all, Ye Qingxue once said that the Charming Eyes Demon Flower could repair and further awaken Yan Qingcheng's Charming Eyes true blood.

If the Charming Eyes bloodline had nothing to do with the demon clan, how could it need to use the Charming Eyes Demon Flower?

The name of the Charming Eyes Demon Flower, a treasure of heaven and earth, combines Charming Eyes and Demon, which seems to have already explained some problems.

"Legend has it that in the endless years ago, the human race and the demon race coexisted in harmony and created a prosperous civilization. Later, the two races jointly resisted the flood of the doomsday, and both suffered heavy losses. In order to protect the inheritance of the human race, the demon race almost destroyed the entire race in the end. Now, the pure blood of the demon race is invisible, but their bloodline has not completely disappeared, but coexists with the human bloodline. The people of the Demon Appearance Sect also have demon race true blood flowing in their bodies…"

"There is such a secret?" Jun Wuxie said after thinking for a while: "Isn't the current half-demon race the demon race bloodline?"

"No, the current half-demon race is completely different from the demon race of that era. Legend has it that the demon race of that era, except for the slightly different meridian structure in the body from the human race and different cultures, everything else is the same. And the half-demon race is just a race that has evolved later."

"I see…" Jun Wuxie thought for a while and said, "You just said that the demon race almost destroyed the entire race in those years, which means that they did not completely perish, and there should be pure-blooded demon races continuing. Why haven't their figures been seen in the long months later, and there isn't even a word or half a sentence recorded in the history books?"

He asked such doubts, not only the two Shengzong elders of the Yaowang Sect, but the muscles on the faces of all the geniuses present twitched a few times, and they seemed a little embarrassed.

The two geniuses from the Demon Appearance Sect clearly showed anger and resentment in their eyes.

"The number of surviving demon races is too small, the strong are dead and wounded, and those old, weak, women and children were later slaughtered by the human race…"

"What did you say?"

Jun Wuxie could hardly believe his ears.

The Shengzong elder of the Yaowang Sect sighed and said with a ashamed face: "That's how we understand that secret. This is the secret that Xuanyuan the Great dared to reveal after unifying the Eastern Wilderness. No one dared to mention it before."

"The main reason is that the rulers of the human race also fell in that catastrophe. Later rulers changed the covenant of coexistence and pursued a zero-sum game, and all races other than the human race were slaughtered."

"That period of time was turbulent and dark, and was called the Chaotic Ancient Era by later generations. In that era, all spirits in the world, as long as they had some cultivation, were almost slaughtered. Even those peerless beast kings who helped the human race resist the flood of the doomsday, had great merits, and survived with serious injuries, were also poisoned."

"Therefore, the half-demon race has always been hostile to the human race, including those birds and beasts that have opened their intelligence. Sect Leader Jun is a special case. Since ancient times, you are the first human being who can make the half-demon race look pleasing to the eye and trust."

"Alas, in that distant era, the demon race was the first to prosper, followed by various races led by some beast kings. At that time, the human race was weak. Although there were small frictions, they did not feel that they could kill the human race at will because they were strong, nor would they wantonly slaughter the human race because they wanted to eat meat. They felt that all living beings who could engage in deep emotional exchanges and interactions should not be treated like this, and the human race was one of them, so there was later harmonious development and common prosperity."

"However, there were also some ferocious beast races that slaughtered the human race for meat, but they were all driven back to the deep mountains by the demon race and other beast kings."

Jun Wuxie felt a little heavy after hearing this.

Seeing the ashamed expressions on everyone's faces, he couldn't help but say: "Do you feel infinitely ashamed of being born as a human being?"

Everyone was silent, but their expressions told him that they defaulted to his statement.

"What's so shameful about it? How many generations have the human race reproduced since ancient times? Those ungrateful human races in the Chaotic Ancient Era are not as good as animals, but they can only represent them, not the entire human race in the entire long river of years. We are us, they are them, there is no need to turn their madness into a burden in our hearts."

"Sect Leader Jun is right, it's just that those histories buried in the years are really too heavy."

Some sighed like this, feeling that the demon race was too tragic, they gave everything, but ended up in such an ending, as well as those beast races who contributed to the human race in those years.

"History is untouchable. We just need to do our best. We don't have to be good people, but we must never repay kindness with enmity or abandon our principles. Just hold onto our original intentions and bottom lines, and that will be enough..."

As Jun Wuxie's voice fell, powerful auras descended from the sky.

The aura carried the scent of the ocean, overwhelming and suffocating, as if a monstrous wave was rolling across the firmament, about to engulf everything here.

Everyone was shocked and looked towards the distant sky.

There, true energy blotted out the sun, forming a boundless ocean in the high sky.

Many figures appeared, stepping on the true energy waves in the sky.

One was a young man in white with a fierce face; another was a young man with sinister eyes and a head full of snake-shaped braids; another was a young man with shifty eyes and wearing dark black armor; and the last was a burly young man with a狰狞 face like a devil.

Four sea race beings appeared near the ancient town.

Their auras were incomparably strong, and even from a great distance, the hearts of all the prodigies felt as if they were weighed down by a giant stone.

Jun Wuxie stepped into the air, golden runes flashing in his deep pupils.

The Primordial True Eye instantly saw through the four people's realms and the strength of their talents, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Four Half-Step Saint Sovereigns, Quasi-Legendary level!

His whole body shone with golden light, like a great sun suspended in the air. The aura of a legendary level was released, causing the pupils of the four people to shrink and their faces to change repeatedly.

In the end, they stopped in the sky at the edge of the ancient town, not taking another step.

They just stared at each other across the air for a moment.

The eyes of the four young sea race kings were extremely cold, and then, with a cold snort, they left through the air.

"They ran away! As expected of Sect Master Jun, he scared away those four extremely powerful young sea race kings with just his aura!"

The prodigies were filled with emotion. When would they ever reach this level? They were probably hopeless in this lifetime.

"They are considering the secret land journey and don't want to fight me before that. Moreover, this place is too close to the sea area. The status of these four people in the sea race is far from comparable to Electric Dragon King and Painless Acupuncture King. Killing them might attract a sea race Half-Saint."

Jun Wuxie glanced at the prodigies and Su Xiaoxiao.

He didn't take action because he was considering these things and didn't want to involve these prodigies.

Moreover, Su Xiaoxiao's current state should not be disturbed.

If a sea race Half-Saint really descended, he would have no choice but to use the military talisman or summon the Xuanyuan God-Slaying Sword, which would be a terrible deal.

"Two seniors, after Xiaoxiao wakes up, take her back to my Zhuxian Sword Sect. This place is not suitable for a long stay. Everyone, please leave together as well."

"Alright."

They had no objection. Having witnessed the power of the sea race, competing with them with their strength would be courting death.

"By the way, this ancient town was destroyed because of me, and the people here have lost their homes. When you leave, take them all to my Great Zhou. Tell Consort Ling to give them separate residences and not to distribute farmland for the time being. Provide them with daily necessities and send people to closely observe them until they meet the requirements before they can be registered as citizens of my Great Zhou."

"No problem, it's just a small matter, a piece of cake..."

The two Saint Sovereigns of the Medicine King Sect agreed with a smile, but before they could finish speaking, their bodies trembled violently, and they suddenly looked up at the sky.

At the same time, all the prodigies here were horrified, their bodies and minds trembling, and they all looked at the sky, their teeth and legs constantly chattering.

It was a terrifying aura, coming from the vast sky, locking onto all of them.

That feeling was like being stared at by a prehistoric beast, as if the scythe of the Grim Reaper had descended on their necks, making them feel cold all over and uncontrollably terrified!

Jun Wuxie's face changed!

He stared at the vast sky, which was cloudless and empty, and he couldn't see anything.

However, in the sky above, he could feel several pairs of eyes looking down here, looking at him and also looking at Su Xiaoxiao inside the blood energy shield.

His heart sank slightly, and a cold light burst out in his eyes!
