Chapter 1374 Devil Palace
Coo!
Creak!
Squeak!
Creak!
After all of the birds and beasts flew into the distance, they began to converse with one another.
Some of them didn’t know how to talk and were randomly chirping. Finally, a blue-winged Griffin spoke coldly in the human language.
“What are you talking about? Enough with the bullshit! Go back and inform your bosses that… there’s a group of outsiders. It’s suspected that they have a spaceship and may be from the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven. As for the rest of you, follow them from a distance and observe their movements.”
“Coo!”
“…”
Clatter.
Most of the birds and beasts dispersed in unison.
They flew very quickly, heading to various regions to report to their own boss.
They wouldn’t allow an outsider to appear in the sky above the Demonic God Temple. They couldn’t defeat the other party, but it didn’t mean that their backing couldn’t as well.
The air above the Demonic God Temple was its core territory.
The temple covered a very large area. They wouldn’t mind it if someone flew over the outer region.

However, that spaceship had reached the inner region, and it was something the Demonic God Temple forbade.
About half an hour later, there were still many birds and beasts following the spaceship from afar.
They didn’t dare approach it as if they were monitoring it.
If it weren’t for the clear sky, they would have observed it secretly instead of taking the long-distance observation.
It was because the monster that had unleashed its oppressive might earlier was simply too powerful.
They didn’t even have the heart to resist.
Finally, the spaceship arrived at the territory of the White Dog Clan.
After it slowly descended and reached a hundred meters above the ground, more birds and beasts were circling in the sky.
It seemed that some of the bosses of the rookies had arrived.
The moment the spaceship showed itself.
“It’s really a spaceship. Let’s kill him!”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Hundreds of birds and beasts rushed over.
“GRWAAAAAH!”
But more figures appeared in the forest.
The second king of the White Dog Clan stared at the spaceship in the sky with cold eyes.
It said coldly, “This is the territory of our White Dog Clan!”
Its mighty aura even startled the birds and beasts above. They all rose into the air and dared not attack.
It was not safe to stay a hundred meters above the ground. Even their bones would be devoured if they were eaten by the White Dog Clan members.
“I’d better not mess with this group of flesh-and-bone-eating dogs.”
Just as the White Dog Clan was about to attack the spaceship, a few people appeared outside of it.
“Stop!”
The pupils of the second king of the White Dog Clan contracted, and its cold face froze. Gradually, it opened its mouth with a surprised expression and then barked, “Woof, woof, woof.”
“Woof?”
Many of its clansmen were dumbfounded.
“That’s quite a humble bark, Second King.”
Ignoring its shocked subordinates, the second king of the White Dog Clan said in the human language, “Holy crap. The great devil is here!”
Back then, Zhang Han had drawn his sword and killed millions of demons.
It was hard to say how many times the second king of the White Dog Clan had recalled that scene.
“It’s them!”
“They’re here again.”
“What should we do?”
Many members of the White Dog Clan, who had been in the Sea Eye at that time, were flustered.
“Hey, why does it seem that you’re not happy with our arrival?” Mengmeng was a little confused when she heard the white dogs’ discussion below.
“Well, you’re sure welcome here.”
The second king of the White Dog Clan came to its senses and said, “Please come down.”
The people on the king’s vessel came out one after another.
“Haha, White Second King.” Mengmeng came to the ground and said with a smile, “It’s been quite a while.”
“Woof. You look taller.” The second king of the White Dog Clan commented.
“Is that all?” Mengmeng snorted. “Don’t I look prettier?”
The second king of the White Dog Clan was speechless.
It pondered for a while. Seeing that everyone’s eyes were focused on it, it was under a lot of pressure.
It did not go against its heart after some consideration as it said, “In terms of your human aesthetic standards, you do look prettier, but in my eyes, it’s hard to tell.”
After hesitating for a while, the second king of the White Dog Clan did not dare to say that Mengmeng had become ugly.
But everyone could tell its meaning.
Mengmeng’s big shining eyes widened. “What kind of aesthetic sense do you have?”
“I think the strong woman beside her back then is not bad,” said the second king of the White Dog Clan.
“Who is that?”
“Zhu Li? It seems to be her.”
Everyone’s eyes changed again.
It seemed that the second king of the White Dog Clan liked chubby people.
“Well, we should leave first instead of talking here. Let’s go back to our nest.” The second king said, “Little Hei, since you’ve seen me, why haven’t you greeted me yet?”
“Huh.”
Little Hei glanced at it and ignored it.
Little Hei was aloof. Even if it accepted the White Dog Clan in its heart and was grateful to them, it would not show its feelings. Only its host, the Little Master, and the Mistress mattered to it.
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
Dahei showed due respect for feelings and gave the second king of the White Dog Clan a middle finger. Then, it laughed and pointed to Little Hei and the others.
“See? My guys are not willing to talk to you.”
The second king of the White Dog Clan didn’t understand Dahei’s gesture and said, “If you keep making gestures, I’ll eat your claws.”
It was a warning to Dahei not to show off in its territory.
Unexpectedly-
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
Dahei changed from ten meters high to more than one meter high. It ran to Zhang Han to hold his leg while roaring. It cried and sadly pointed at the second king of the White Dog Clan.
This stunned all the white dogs.
“Hey, bro, what’s wrong with you?”
The second king of the White Dog Clan didn’t know what was going on. Dahei made it look like the second king had bullied it. “I didn’t do anything. Why are you crying?”
Zhang Han was speechless.
He felt both angry and amused.
“Get up now.” Zhang Han raised his leg and kicked Dahei.
“Woof.”
Dahei scratched its head and then chuckled. It patted its butt and walked leisurely.
It made Zi Yan laugh. Zhang Li and the others also couldn’t help laughing.
They felt that Dahei had become much livelier since it got here.
“Great Devil.”
Chu Qingyi was often entranced as she watched.
“The Demonic God Temple, Great Devil, and high-tier Exotic Beasts all speak in the human language.
“It’s really extraordinary.
“However, apart from the second king of the White Dog Clan, these white dogs don’t seem to be quite powerful.”
The group of people walked through the forest at a seemingly leisurely pace, but in fact, they were flying fast.
After more than half an hour, they finally arrived at the nest of the White Dog Clan.
It was located in a canyon with mountains, rivers, and some doghouses.
There were even more clansmen here. Some were playing in the mountains, some were hunting in the Exotic Beast Mountain Range, and some were drinking by the river.
A lot of cute little white dogs could be seen here.
It was like a harmonious homeland.
However, there were bodies of the Exotic Beasts on the edge, which still presented the law of the jungle.
“Second King is back!”
“Wow. The second King is so powerful to actually bring so much food back, and the food is still alive!”
A little white dog ran over wickedly. It could speak the human language at such a young age. It was obvious that it was very talented.
Bang!
The second king of the White Dog Clan slapped it away with its claw. The little white dog fell into the river in the distance.
The second king of the White Dog Clan cursed, “Little bastard, how dare you call them food? They’re guests!”
Hearing its words, these clansmen looked Zhang Han up and down carefully.
“There’s a black dog?”
“Damn. A black dog?”
“It’s so dark! And it even has some yellow hairs.”
If a white dog appeared among a pile of black dogs, it would be unusual. But in this place, the white dogs were surprised to see black dogs here.
“Isn’t this Little Hei?”
Those who had seen Little Hei before said in surprise, “They are coming!”
Some of them had heard about matters regarding the Sea Eye. As soon as they thought of Xiao Hei, they knew who this group of visitors was.
They were the powerful masters who’d slaughtered millions of demons.
“All right now. Behave yourselves in the coming days. I’ll go to the temple to find my big brother. Those of the law enforcement team, you should keep a close eye on those little bastards. Don’t let them go fool around. It’s not peaceful out there nowadays.”
“Don’t worry, Second King.”
After giving a simple instruction, the second king of the White Dog Clan directly led the way into the depths of the jungle without even taking a rest.
“Park the spaceship above over here. There are many bad-tempered guys in the temple,” said the second king of the White Dog Clan.
Yue Wuwei said, “Okay. We’ll leave it here.”
It was not far from here to the Demonic God Temple, it would only take them a two-hour full-speed flight.
“Let’s go to the territory of the Great Ape Clan,” Zhang Han said.
The second king of the White Dog Clan glanced at Dahei.
It said in a low voice, “We’ll just be passing by.”
It didn’t want to go to the Giant Ape Clan’s territory that much.
But with Dahei around, it would definitely go there.
“What’s going on with the Demon Clan outside? On our way here, we saw quite a few battlefields, and they weren’t small,” asked Mu Xue curiously.
“It’s because of the appearance of the Fiend Cave.”
The second king of the White Dog Clan looked at Zhang Han with strange eyes and said, “Since he pulled out his sword last time, the Sea Eye has been full of strange energy and gone chaotic for two months. After that, the energy flew into the air and came to land, located between the Demonic God Temple and the human territory and 50 kilometers away from the coast. The Demon Clan wants to go there because the high-position officials have discussed before that the Demon Clan may have nothing to do with this land. But they don’t want to give up. Some demons keep attacking as if they want the high-position officials here to compromise.”
“Fiend Cave?”
Zhang Han’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“It’s the Fiend Cave. Not long ago, First King and I went there to have a look. With the Bounded Domains protecting it, humans and Exotic Beasts can’t enter, but the Demon Clan can. There should be precious treasures in there, so the Human Clan and the Demonic God Temple will temporarily stop those demons and prevent them from easily getting anything from the cave,” the second king of the White Dog Clan said.
“You guys are amazing.” Mengmeng said, “The Demon Clan is so powerful, yet you can stop them.”
“Hah.”
The second king of the White Dog Clan snorted. “That’s because the level of the Fiend Cave is not high enough. If it is, those demons would get the Devil Palace to join them, and no one will dare to stop them.”
“What’s the Devil Palace?” Yue Wuwei’s expression changed slightly.
“The Devil Palace is the true strength and holy land of the Demon Clan.”
A trace of fear and trembling flashed across the eyes of the second king of the White Dog Clan as if it had recalled something terrible. Then, it took a deep breath and said, “The Demon Clan in the outside world consists of some races, and the Devil Palace is where all the high-position officials of the Demon Clan are located. In the Devil Palace, there are eight Demon Lords, who control everything. Even the heads of the Myriad Mountains Palace, the Illusory Mansion, and the War Saint Abyss of the Human Clan are no match for them. I’m the core of our Demonic God Temple and can barely speak to them. If the Devil Palace mobilizes all its forces, it can destroy the world.”
Chen Chuan couldn’t help but ask, “Then why hasn’t the Devil Palace made a move? Doesn’t the Demon Clan intend to dominate the world?”
Demons were evil in his eyes. They wanted to conquer the world and rule it all.
“It depends on the Demon Lords’ intentions. Some of them want to eliminate the Human Clan and Demonic God Temple while some disagree. Later, due to certain matters, they all stopped fighting to keep the current balance. As for the related news, I don’t know much about it,” the second king of the White Dog Clan said.
“How powerful are those eight Demon Lords?” Chen Changqing said.
“Maybe all of them are in the Mastery Realm. Even if they are not, they would be at the Peak Stage of the Integration Realm. They are very powerful, and each of them is very strong, especially the Demon Lord of the Stone Demon Clan, who is stunningly formidable.” The second king of the White Dog Clan said, “But the Demon Lords seldom show up. They cultivate in the secret place of the Devil Palace all year round to make great achievements. Under the Demon Lords, there are 36 Demon Monarchs. They are also subordinated to the Eight Demon Lords, divided into different factions. Under the 36 Demon Monarchs, there are 78 Demon Generals.”
“Demon Monarchs?”
Zhang Han and Yue Wuwei looked at each other.
On the side of the Sea Eye, the red net outside was set up by Demon Monarch Monson.
He announced that the stuff there belonged to him.
At first, they did not know what the Demon Monarch’s definition in this world was.
Now they knew.
“How powerful are the Demon Monarchs? How strong are the Demon Generals?” Jiang Yanlan asked.
“The Demon Monarchs must be in the Integration Realm, and all the Demon Generals are in the Void-refining Realm, either at the Last Stage or at the Peak Stage.” The second king of the White Dog Clan thought for a moment and continued, “This was the situation more than 30 years ago. Since decades have passed, the number of the Demon Princes and the Demon Monarchs may have increased.”
“I see.”
Everyone finally understood.
“The Myriad Mountains Palace has Taoist Lord of Dragon, the War Saint Abyss has Brass Immortal, and the Illusory Mansion has Tianxingzi. They are all Sect Masters. How strong are they?” Ah Hu asked.
“The three of them are definitely experts. How could the cornerstones of the Human Clan be ordinary? If it weren’t for them, the Human Clan would have been wiped out a long time ago,” scoffed the second king of the White Dog Clan.
“Speaking of which…” Zhou Fei thought for a moment and said, “We have some disputes with Myriad Mountains Palace. Last time, Elder Yue killed several of its men.”
“They were just a few nobodies,” Yue Wuwei said indifferently.
Even if the Taoist Lord of Dragon had come, Yue Wuwei would not show him any respect.
From everyone’s conversation, Chu Qingyi indirectly understood the situation here.
“Those guys are at the Last Stage of the Shadow Refining, the Integration Realm, and even the Mastery Realm.
“That’s amazing. What a high-end planet!”
She felt a little stressed.
She thought that she could help out here, but now it seemed that her strength was not good enough.
“Demon Generals. Demon Monarchs. Demon Lords.”
Chu Qingyi’s eyes flashed.
As for exactly how powerful they were, she would only know after seeing those people.
The crowd arrived in the Giant Ape Clan’s territory as they spoke.
“Who is it?!”
A giant ape was lying in the mountain range. After discovering the commotion here, it sat up. Its upper body was as tall as a tree. It widened its round eyes before it swept away the trees around it.
When it saw the crowd ahead, it was stunning and then became infuriated.
“Little white dog, what are you doing here? I’ll kill you!”
“I’m here to hunt!” The second king of the White Dog Clan was filled with killing intent.
“Who is it? It’s the second king of the White Dog Clan!”
After the giant ape sensed the other party carefully, it thought, “Damn, isn’t this their second king?
“Shit! I’m no match for it!”
Zhang Han looked at the giant ape that wanted to run away but still bucked up to stand up.
He touched his forehead.
It was not easy for such a stupid and lovely giant ape to live in the Demonic God Temple.
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
Dahei helped end the awkward atmosphere.
Suddenly, it barked a few times.
“Bro, here I come.”
There came dozens of loud bangs.
Dahei pounded its chest a few times and its body kept growing bigger.
It grew to 30 meters, 50 meters, and then 100 meters tall.
The giant ape was like a little brat in front of it.
“What the hell?” The giant ape was startled.
It took a few steps back and shook its head as if it had just woken up.
“Isn’t this Brother Dahei?”
“Woof. Woof.” Dahei barked twice more.
“Oh no! The Demon King is here!”
However, the giant ape seemed to think of something, and its face changed. It turned around and fled quickly.
Hearing its words and looking at its expression, everyone knew that the Demon King it was talking about was Zhang Han.
What was going on?
A title scared the giant ape away.
“Let’s go,” Zhang Han said helplessly.
In fact, those beasts should know very well that by using one sword, Zhang Han killed a million demons with the Sea Eye and the Seven-star Sword’s accumulated thousand-year energy.
Otherwise, if he were to kill them on his own, he didn’t know how long that would take.
“But it seems like these fellows think I’m terrifying?”
Zhang Han didn’t know that the moment he unsheathed his sword, the entire planet sunk into darkness.
An enormous demonic shadow was so huge that he had his head in the sky and his feet beneath the sea.
The changes in the world brought horror to the upper echelons.
The small team kept walking forward.
Dahei led the way. When it walked, it squatted down, stretched out its hand, and put it in front of Mengmeng.
Swoosh!
Mengmeng jumped into Dahei’s palm and was placed on its shoulder.
“Put me up there as well! I’ll go up too!” Chen Chuan shouted.
Dahei smacked its lips and didn’t want to respond to him. After Mengmeng spoke, it let Chen Chuan, Yue Xiaonao, and the others stay on its shoulders.
“Dahei is quite snobbish,” Dong Chen said disdainfully.
His tone sounded a little jealous. He also liked Dahei so much and had given it a lot of delicious food, but it had never shown him respect.
“Woof?”
Dahei squinted at Dong Chen and squatted down again.
“No, thanks. I can walk by myself.” Dong Chen waved his hand lightly.
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
Unexpectedly, Dahei suddenly turned around.
Its huge butt was aimed at Dong Chen.
Poof!
Like a sixth-ranked gale, the sudden gust of wind was controlled by some kind of force.
It stayed within an area with a diameter of more than ten meters.
It was aimed at Dong Chen’s side while Xu Yong, Elder Meng, and a dozen others were also attacked.
“Damn!”
“Dahei, how dare you fart to attack me?” Dong Chen was furious.
“It smells so bad!” Elder Meng said, grimacing.
“Let’s leave!”
Zhang Han immediately grabbed Zi Yan, moved forward quickly, and avoided the terrible smell.
The others also slipped away quickly.
Only Dong Chen wanted to chop Dahei’s butt with his saber.
But in the end, he couldn’t do it.
He might not be able to cut Dahei’s thick skin and flesh.
“Hahaha, Dahei, you are so naughty,” Mengmeng said with a smile.
She was just watching the fun.
It was quite interesting.
At this moment, the atmosphere was relatively relaxed and active.
After all, they did not have to worry about anything in the territories of the second king of the White Dog Clan and the Great Ape Clan.
The Demonic God Temple’s territory wasn’t bad either. There was almost no unrest in the core region unless two clans were to fight.
“Hey, Dahei is here! Come here. You’ve become taller again.”
A loud sound rang out from afar.
Then came the sound of footsteps.
Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
From the sounds of it, dozens of giant apes were approaching at the same time.
If it weren’t for the trees growing extremely quickly in the Great Ape Clan’s territory, they would likely be able to trample over the entire territory by walking back and forth.
Soon, the two groups met.
“Zhang Hanyang! You finally sent Dahei to me.” Yuan Yi smiled.
“Thanks to the concern of the Great Ape Clan and the White Dog Clan, we brought Dahei and Little Hei here.” Zhang Han nodded slightly and said, “In order to get the martial arts heritage or precious treasures of your two clans, no matter what you offer, I will exchange the spirit treasures for them of equal value.”
There was no such thing as a free lunch. They wanted Dahei and Little Hei to join their clans. Not to mention whether Zhang Han agreed or not, Mengmeng would not agree.
Last time, they also said that they needed to foster their relationship. If their clans were in danger, Zhang Han and his team could help.
It was like an investment, but Zhang Han’s conditions were so good now and he had so many treasures. It was normal for him to return their favor appropriately.
“Spirit treasures?”
However, Yuan Yi said disdainfully, “Every part of our Giant Ape is a treasure. Why would we need some extra ones?”
