The demons’ escape from the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty was indeed out of everyone’s expectations.
Especially when more than 3,000 demons fled together.
It was a truly shocking scene.
Originally, when the poisonous snake demon was killed, everyone thought that the demons were about to start fighting with each other amidst internal strife.
If that happened, then the Yuhua God Dynasty would definitely be in danger.
Sect Leader Luo Yu also expected this to happen.
He confidently predicted that the Imperial Capital would be destroyed before daybreak.
But the result was far beyond his or everyone’s expectations.
The demons fled in panic.
It seemed that there was a terrifying existence in the Imperial Capital that scared them.
What kind of existence was in the Imperial Capital?
Sect Leader Luo Yu hesitated. “It can’t be that guardian deity of the Yuhua God Dynasty, right?”
It couldn’t be him, right?
That was impossible.
Although he was powerful, he couldn’t possibly handle more than 3,000 demons all by himself.
It shouldn’t be him.
It must not be him…
In the end, Sect Leader Luo Yu couldn’t understand why the demons ran away.
‘But it’s good that they are gone. Since they didn’t destroy the Imperial Capital, our sect can continue our plans.’ Sect Leader Luo Yu thought about it and was overjoyed with the overall outcome of the events.
With the demons’ disappearance, the Zenith Heaven Path Sect could continue their plans of eventually annexing the Yuhua God Dynasty.
Moreover, there was also the Land of Extreme Negative Energy in the Imperial Capital.
They had to find it at all costs.
“Inform De Ming to continue his search. This time, he must be more careful. The demons of that demon’s den have already come out and have left. The Land of Extreme Negative Energy in the imperial capital should be easy to find without their presence…”
“Let him report immediately once he has found it.”
Sect Leader Luo Yu gave his orders in excitement.
The demons in that demon’s den had appeared and fled.
This meant that the seal on that demon’s den built on top of the Land of Extreme Negative Energy in the Imperial Capital was broken.
The true Land of Extremely Negative Energy beneath that demon’s den should be exposed by now.
They must find the true Land of Extreme Negative Energy that caused the death of their previous Sect Master. Their war machine must also be in that land, so the Zenith Heaven Path Sect must occupy it at all costs.
The ambitions of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect’s Sect Leader, Luo Yu, were exposed.
The reason why he decided to build the sect so close to the Imperial Capital was to eventually occupy the Land of Extreme Negative Energy and claim it as their own.
Speaking of the Land of Extreme Negative Energy…
Lin Jiufeng was currently cleaning up the demon’s den and the underground palace.
The white cat was also there to lend her hand in help.
“The original Demon Lord moved this palace here to suppress the demon’s den and prevent the demons from within from coming out prematurely into the new era.”
“The Demon Lord is a very noble man. Although he is on the Demon Path, he managed to change my opinion of that path altogether.”
“But now, with the seal lifted and the demons released. There is no reason for this underground palace to exist anymore.”
“I’ll transfer everything into the Cold Palace up above. When you are free, you can go and visit it anytime you like.”
Lin Jiufeng said to the white cat.
The white cat had once lived in this underground palace for hundreds of years.
He needed the white cat’s consent before he could move it away.
The white cat was rational. She knew that the Demon Lord had already passed away, and this underground palace was now just a liability. She might as well let Lin Jiufeng move it away, so it could serve another purpose.
Using his True Qi, Lin Jiufeng brought the underground palace out and placed it in the Cold Palace. Taking out the underground palace was a piece of cake for Lin Jiufeng, considering how the entire Cold Palace was already so dilapidated.
The pillars have long rotted, with a few huts and houses already reduced to rubble. Using the underground palace as the basis, Lin Jiufeng could then somehow restore the Cold Palace.
Rumble…
Lin Jiufeng gently placed the underground palace in the Cold Palace.
The entrance to the demon’s den was already out in the open.
Only its entrance was available for viewing, the rest were covered by the underground palace.
But after having uprooted the underground palace, the entire demon’s den was revealed.
It consisted of a winding cave system deep underground.
Lin Jiufeng looked at the demon’s den and began to clean it up.
There was no need for the demon’s den to exist anymore. The demons had already left. They couldn’t take the demon’s den with them, so they directly abandoned it.
Boom!
Lin Jiufeng slapped out and struck at the bottom of the demon’s den.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The demon’s den exploded. Under Lin Jiufeng’s attack, it split apart and collapsed.
The place that more than 3,000 powerful demons had once called ‘home’ has now been destroyed by Lin Jiufeng.
Rumble!
The destruction of the demon’s den directly revealed the Land of Extreme Negative Energy beneath it.
The true Land of Extreme Negative Energy.
It has been about 50 years since Lin Jiufeng entered the Cold Palace.
He came to know about the Land of Extreme Negative Energy from the malevolent ghost of Imperial Consort Jia.
Tainted by the tiniest bit of aura from the Land of Extreme Negative Energy, Imperial Consort Jia turned into a vengeful spirit.
Then came the Chasing Corpse Sect.
But the Chasing Corpse Sect was ignorant of the Land of Extreme Negative Energy’s true power. They buried the corpse of their ancestor here and then wholeheartedly devoted themselves to exploring the Demon Lord’s underground palace.
It wasn’t until Lin Jiufeng discovered the underground palace that he realized that there was more to the matter.
Beneath the underground palace was a huge demon’s den.
There were more than 3000 demons inside, all of which were powerful demons from the previous era.
Upon discovering them, Lin Jiufeng thought that this was the end of the matter.
But after ten years, and after having defeated every demon in that demon’s den. He found out that the demon’s den was actually built on top of the true Land of Extreme Negative Energy.
It was a mysterious and indescribable place that had once attracted countless experts to compete for the right to occupy it in the previous era.
Countless people fought for it with their lives on the line.
But Lin Jiufeng reckoned that the Land of Extreme Negative Energy that everyone fought for with their lives on the line back then wasn’t even the true Land of Extreme Negative Energy.
It was understandable, however, for the demons had built their demon’s den on top of it, burying the true Land of Extreme Negative Energy in the process.
Now that the demon’s den was destroyed by Lin Jiufeng, the true Land of Extreme Negative Energy was revealed.
A wasteland filled with nothing but red was revealed directly in front of Lin Jiufeng.
Indescribable and terrifying demonic energy rushed out of the wasteland, transforming the scene into the aftermath of a battlefield. The aura that the land itself carried interfered with the minds of others, distorting them, and even changing their personalities.
Once a person absorbed too much of this unique demonic energy—he would become stronger, but it meant becoming tainted and obsessed with slaughter.
The true Land of Extremely Negative Energy truly was a place that permitted no life to exist.
The evil aura contained from within it rushed out and instantly filled the Cold Palace.
Countless resentful roars, countless vengeful spirits twisted and roared.
Demonic energy spread and it was about to spread outside the Cold Palace.
Once the demonic energy spread into the Imperial Capital, the common people would instantly turn into demons. They would lose their minds and the dark desired hidden in their hearts would be magnified.
The Imperial Capital would then become a wasteland overnight—just like the true Land of Extreme Negative Energy itself.
Lin Jiufeng saw this scene.
He—who was surrounded by demonic energy—wasn’t affected at all.
With his strong will, it would be strange if he was affected.
Facing this scene, he coldly snorted and stomped with his foot onto the ground.
Boom!
The entire Cold Palace trembled.
Lin Jiufeng’s terrifying might penetrated every inch of the Cold Palace.
Lin Jiufeng’s domain as a Supremacy emerged.
The demonic energy wanted to escape, but it encountered Lin Jiufeng’s domain and was forced to retreat.
It didn’t even resist.
“Go back to where you came from,” Lin Jiufeng coldly said.
He used his domain and forced the demonic energy to retreat into the Land of Extreme Negative Energy.
The demonic energy that threatened to taint the entire Imperial Capital was suppressed by Lin Jiufeng.
It didn’t resist at all.
More accurately, it could not resist.
Lin Jiufeng watched indifferently.
Both his feet were pressed against the Land of Extreme Negative Energy, preventing the demonic energy from escaping.
After suppressing the demonic energy, a line of words appeared in front of Lin Jiufeng’s eyes.
[Do you want to Sign-In before the true Land of Extreme Negative Energy?]
Lin Jiufeng looked at the sky.
In the distant sky, a fiery red light appeared.
Soon, the sun would rise.
The second day in his exploration had come.
Lin Jiufeng nodded and said, “Sign in!”
[Sign-In successful. Received Light of the Homes]
A lamp with a jittery flame appeared in front of Lin Jiufeng.
It was suspended in the air as it silently floated there.
A look was enough to understand that there was more than meets the eye when it came to this lamp.
