"Two adults, please wait a moment. I will go and report it now!"

The patrol captain did not dare to neglect, and immediately sent a message to the messenger monk on the island to report the news.

Not long after.

Several demon generals came to greet them and invited Shen Lang and Long Xuan into the island.

Longyan Island is riddled with holes, and there are even a few cracks on the entire island. Most of the buildings on the island have been destroyed and transformed into simple camps.

Flying over Longyan Island, you can see a large number of demon monks gathering in the camps to recuperate.

The long battle with the ghost realm monks made these demon realm monks exhausted.

There is a palace built in the center of Longyan Island, and the ancestor of Heiyan lives in the palace.

Shen Lang and Long Xuan were invited into the palace.

The palace was very empty.

A demon god wearing a black robe and having two horns was sitting on the roof above the palace, with a wisp of black flames burning between his brows, exuding a sinister and violent aura that made people shudder!

The demon looked very young and handsome, his face was quite pale, and his aura was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, giving people the feeling of recovering from a serious illness.

This was Shen Lang's first time seeing the real ancestral demon. Apart from being shocked, he actually felt an indescribable sense of familiarity.

"My subordinate, Long Xuan, pays homage to the ancestor of Black Flame!"

Long Xuan bowed and saluted.

Seeing that Shen Lang had not saluted for a long time, Long Xuan tugged on his clothes and motioned for him to salute quickly.

Unexpectedly, the founder of Heiyan, who was lying on his back, suddenly dodged and came to Shen Lang.

Long Xuan was startled, thinking that the ancestor of Hei Yan felt that Shen Lang was too rude, so he quickly explained for Shen Lang: "Master ancestor, this god is not..."

However, Long Xuan hadn't finished speaking yet.

The ancestor of Hei Yan actually prostrated himself in front of Shen Lang and said excitedly: "Hei Yan, I have met my father!"

Father?

Long Xuan was stunned.

He almost thought there was something wrong with his ears.

What is this situation? Why did the ancestor call Shen Lang his father?

Shen Lang breathed a sigh of relief. He was previously worried about how to explain his identity to the Black Flame Ancestor. It seemed that the other party already knew his identity.

Although he had been prepared for it, he still felt a little weird when faced with this scene.

"Get up, no need to be polite."

Shen Lang put on a calm expression and said in a deep voice: "I have not recovered my memory and cultivation before my death, and only retain a small part of my knowledge. Before I become the Heaven-Jieting Emperor, you don't need to call me Father. ."

The ancestor of Heiyan said quickly: "Father, you are joking. Even if you have temporarily lost your memory, you are still the Heaven Smiting Emperor. I am your son, and we will do our best to help your father rebuild his true body!"

Long Xuan on the side was extremely shocked.

As a warrior in the Demon Realm, he had naturally heard of the "Heaven-Jieting Emperor", who was said to be a brother-in-law with the Realm Lord!

Long Xuan never dreamed that this person was actually the legendary Emperor Jie Tian!

Thinking of the scene where Shen Lang rescued the Black Rock City army, Long Xuan felt like a dream.

"Let's put aside these things for now. You are seriously injured. What happened?"

Shen Lang saw that the ancestor of Black Flame was seriously injured and couldn't help but frown and asked.

The ancestor of Heiyan sighed and said: "The child is incompetent. He was injured in the battle with the 'Four-Eyed Ghost Emperor', one of the eight kingdoms in the ghost realm, and his soul was damaged."

"However, the four-eyed ghost emperor was also injured by the child and temporarily withdrew from the Black Sea front line."

"I see." Shen Lang frowned.

He had previously read many descriptions of the Eight Kingdoms of the Ghost Realm in the ancient books left by the Royal Family of the Demon Realm. The "Four-Eyed Ghost Emperor" mentioned by the ancestor of Black Yan was the king of the Wangyou Kingdom, one of the Eight Kingdoms of the Ghost Realm.

The so-called eight ghost kingdoms are worth mentioning.

Generally speaking, the Ghost Realm consists of eight countries. Each of these eight countries is: Tianyue Kingdom, Disha Kingdom, Impermanence Kingdom, Black Marsh Kingdom, Gusang Kingdom, Wangyou Kingdom, Rakshasa Kingdom, and Holy Bone Kingdom.

These eight countries divided up the territory of the ghost realm, similar to the ten fairy realms in the fairy world.

But unlike the fairy world, the eight kingdoms in the ghost realm have extremely strong dominance. There are only these eight forces in the entire ghost realm, which is similar to imperial rule.

The strength of the kings of various countries is not inferior to that of the Ancestral Demon, and they at least have terrifying cultivation levels at the peak level of the Divine Sea Realm.

If the monarch's power was comparable to that of the ancestral demon, he would not be able to occupy the demon territory so quickly.

The main reason is that the Eight Kingdoms of the Ghost Realm are extremely powerful. The number of monks alone is seven or eight times greater than that of the Demon Realm. Their overall strength far exceeds that of the Demon Realm. That is why the Demon Realm is being defeated steadily.

When the eight kingdoms of the Ghost Realm met, they each opened a crack in the interface to enter the Demon Realm.

The interface crack in the Black Sea was opened up by Wangyou Kingdom.

The ghost realm monks who haunt the Black Sea are all ghost cultivators from Wangyou Kingdom.

Shen Lang learned about the situation from the Black Flame Ancestor and learned that although the Demon Realm army on the Black Sea front had temporarily repelled the Ghost Realm army, they suffered heavy casualties and had almost no personnel to replace them.

On the other hand, in the ghost domain, there are still a large number of ghost cultivators from the Wangyou Kingdom crossing the cracks in the interface and coming to the Black Sea every day, constantly replenishing the combat power of the ghost cultivators from the Wangyou Kingdom.

The ancestor of Black Flame originally wanted to lead this main force of the Demon Realm to break through the defense line of the Ghost Realm army in one go and occupy the interface crack in the Black Sea, thereby cutting off the ghost realm monks' access to the Demon Realm.

Unfortunately, they encountered stubborn resistance from the ghost cultivator army of the Wangyou Kingdom on the Black Sea front, and were unable to break through the defense line of the ghost domain army.

"This is the situation. I have been waiting for a fierce battle so far, but the time has dragged on for too long. Instead, I am stuck in the quagmire."

"With the current situation, whether we can survive the next war is a question." The ancestor of Black Flame frowned, with a look of unwillingness on his face.

"Put the war aside for now, I'll treat your injuries first."

After Shen Lang said that, he immediately offered up the coffin palace lantern.

He could see that Black Yan's ancestor Yuan Shen was injured, and most of his Yuan Shen's power had been overdrawn, and his condition was extremely poor.

Shen Lang immediately activated the coffin palace lantern, releasing a brilliant glazed holy light that poured into the scarred body of the Black Flame Ancestor.

Being illuminated by the glazed holy light, the ancestor of Black Flame instantly felt a vast ocean-like vitality pouring into his soul. He couldn't help but feel refreshed. His soul was nourished and was slowly recovering.

Since Shen Lang's cultivation level was much worse than that of the Black Flame Ancestor, it took more than half an hour of treatment before the Black Flame Ancestor's injuries recovered significantly.

Long Xuan waited respectfully aside, not daring to make any noise to disturb the two of them.

Finally, Shen Lang sealed a large amount of glazed holy light into the body of the Black Flame Ancestor in one breath, ending the treatment this time.

"You only need to sit quietly for a few days to digest the holy light in your body, and the damaged soul should be fully restored." Shen Lang said solemnly.

"Thank you, Father, for the treatment!" The ancestor of Black Flame thanked him with gratitude.

"It's just a little effort." Shen Lang shook his head.

Just when he was about to ask something, something unexpected happened.

"boom!!!"

A huge roar resounded throughout the world, and the entire Longyan Island seemed to have been shaken by a magnitude 10 earthquake.

"what happened?"

In the palace, Shen Lang and Long Xuan couldn't help but change their expressions.

The ancestor of Black Flame smelled something bad and immediately removed the restrictions in the hall.

"Report to the First Ancestor, the ghost army is approaching Longyan Island, and several vanguard ghost generals are already attacking Longyan Island's defense formation!" A patrol leader in the demigod realm shouted a message outside the palace.

The words were fresh.

"Boom!!!"

There was another loud noise, and the entire hall began to shake.
