Chapter 729: Demon King Domain’s Detection!
Editor: Atlas Studios
The abnormal movements in Helcrown made everyone in the center of Death Soul City looked up in surprise.
They all turned their gazes in the direction of the Demon King City.
At this moment, in the center of Purgatory City, among the three stone pillars, the Purgatory Ancestor suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Demon King City in disbelief.
There, a thick black pillar of light shot into the sky towards the resplendent galaxy!
It was as if it had pierced through the galaxy and the entire Death Soul City.
This extremely terrifying aura and pressure.
The Purgatory Ancestor was very familiar with it.
He had almost been killed by the owner of this aura after all…
“It’s just a remnant soul… After being suppressed for so many years, can it still unleash such terrifying power…”
The Purgatory Ancestor’s eyes were filled with shock. His expression was solemn as he frowned tightly. He looked up at the resplendent galaxy and this black pillar of light not only broke through the suppression seal of the huge castle and the three stone pillars.
Now, it had caused a powerful backlash from Death Soul City, but it still broke through and directly pierced through the resplendent galaxy…
“Who exactly is this person…”
Now, the Purgatory Ancestor was extremely certain that the owner of this remnant soul was a top existence in the entire high-latitude realm!
In fact, it was impossible for him to be unknown!
At this moment, outside Death Soul City.
The leaders of the various factions and the independent cultivators all retreated thousands of feet.
Be it the Supreme Elder of the Holy Talisman Sect, the Heaven Immortal realm expert of the Su family, or Huo Zhengheng, all of them had solemn expressions as they released spiritual qi barriers to resist the dark pillar of light that suddenly surged out of Death City!
“What exactly is this pillar of light? It can actually make my soul tremble?”
Another mighty figure also said seriously, “What exactly happened in Death Soul City? You have to know that such a thing has never happened before every time Death Soul City opened!”
“I hope those young people in Death Soul City weren’t implicated by this pillar of light…”
Another mighty figure also said seriously, “What exactly happened in Death Soul City? You have to know that such a thing has never happened before every time Death Soul City opened!”
Among all the Almighties present, only this old man and the man beside him knew what this black pillar of light represented!
The old man was the village chief of Immortal Ape Village, and the man was Yuan Shou!
Yuan Shou looked at the black pillar of light with reverence in his eyes and said in surprise, “It seems that there is indeed a Demon Lord’s soul fragment in Death Soul City!”
“If the Demon Lord absorbs it, he will be one step closer to recovering his strength.”
“Don’t be happy too early,” the village chief said with a solemn expression. “Everything has to look at its flaws. Have you ever thought about whether the Demon Lord’s aura released now or the commotion caused after the Demon Lord absorbs it will alert the rebels?”
“This soul fragment of the Demon Lord is clearly not ordinary.”
The power it created was too strong!
Everyone looked helpless upon hearing this.
Yuan Shou’s expression changed from pleasant surprise to seriousness.
If that was the case, he did not know if it was a good or bad thing for the Demon Lord to absorb the soul fragments this time.
The current Demon Lord had yet to recover his strength after all. If he was discovered, he would probably have no chance of resisting!
“However, the Demon Lord will definitely absorb this soul fragment.” The village chief sighed slightly and said, “It’s time for us to prepare.”
Yuan Shou was slightly taken aback.
“Should we start the ceremony early?”
The village chief nodded. “We’ll begin after the Demon Lord comes out of Death Soul City.”
From the village chief’s serious tone, Yuan Shou felt a strong sense of danger.
Hence, he could only nod.
The Higher Latitude Region.
In a realm shrouded in darkness, the sky was enveloped by dark demonic qi. It was impenetrable, and not a trace of sunlight or moonlight could shine in.
The ground or the buildings were all black.
It seemed extremely oppressive.
However, in addition to the extremely oppressive aura in the air, there was also a trace of berserk intent.
This was not something that naturally formed in this realm.
Instead, the people who lived in this realm all had violent factors, causing them to materialize and float in the air.
Somewhere in the realm, in a castle.
There were three tall men in robes engraved with black demonic patterns discussing important matters.
At this moment, the expressions of the three of them changed at the same time.
“This aura?!”
“Huh? Disappeared again?”
“No, it’s absolutely impossible. That person is already completely dead. His seven souls and six spirits have already been scattered by the three of us. It’s absolutely impossible for him to survive in this world!”
“I think so too. He only sensed that aura for a moment. Could his nerves have been too tense recently?”
The narrow-eyed man sitting in the middle said seriously, “No, it’s definitely not a mistake in perception. At our level, how can there be such a low-level mistake in perception?”
When the other two heard this, they nodded solemnly.
“Then is it possible that it’s the aura that erupted from that person’s remnant soul?”
Hearing this, the man in the middle said in a deep voice, “No matter what, we have to investigate this matter thoroughly. Even if it’s just a remnant soul, we have to find it and destroy it!”
“Have you forgotten how terrifying that person is?”
When the other two heard this, their expressions darkened.
Of course, they would not forget.
Back then, if they hadn’t allied with the Heaven Lord-level factions,
they might not be able to kill that person with just the three of them.
This person’s strength was far too terrifying, and his strength was close to that of a Heaven Lord-level faction’s higher-being!
In fact, to a certain extent, it was even better…
“Therefore, even if there’s the slightest possibility of reviving it, we have to nip it in the bud!”
The other three nodded.
“Understood, Big Brother. I’ll send someone to investigate this matter.”
However, the man frowned and said, “Go yourself! If there aren’t enough clues, it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack. What’s the use of having those useless subordinates search for it?”
“But… I still have things to do…”
Before he could finish speaking, the man sitting in the middle slammed the table and stood up!
The black crystal round table in front of him turned into nothingness!
An extremely powerful aura surged out uncontrollably.
The man roared angrily, “In the face of this matter, everything else is trivial! Now, immediately search for clues about this matter!”
Seeing this, the man nodded and disappeared in an instant.
The man exhaled slightly.
He looked up at the skylight above. Outside, it was still gray.
His gaze was solemn, as if he had recalled a bad past.
“Looks like I have to go and see her…”
