The preparation work didn't take long. The spirit of the demon lord found Lord of the Jiang Family at a time when a certain world was nearing the end of its invasion war—this world was called Sata Maya. There wasn't much to say about the others; after a brief observation, Wen Yu discovered that the power of this planet was woefully inadequate. Even the strongest being, ranked first, could be easily eliminated by Wen Yu in just a few minutes with his current strength.
After the world war concluded and the Supreme Council divided the origin power, the spirit of the demon lord knocked on the door once more and uttered the words, "The plan begins."
The memories fast-forwarded, and they arrived at the demon realm profile.
...
The territory of the spirit of the demon lord was located at the far west of the Demon Realm, close to the World Barrier just like the Desolate Borderlands.
Unlike the painstaking efforts taken by Bai to infiltrate, the spirit of the demon lord's entrance could almost be described as blatant... it was even more like a simple visit!
In the eyes of Lord of the Jiang Family, the spirit of the demon lord merely waved his hand in front of the World Barrier, and immediately, a large opening appeared. The two entered the demon realm profile one after the other.
Indeed, the so-called plan involved only the spirit of the demon lord and Lord of the Jiang Family...
Having already fallen into the trap of "power and authority", Lord of the Jiang Family paid no attention to these small details. He followed the spirit of the demon lord straight toward the Demon Palace. However, in Lord of the Jiang Family's memory, their journey differed somewhat from Bai's.
The environment was identical, yet it lacked the ubiquitous Variant Soul Puppets—Lord of the Jiang Family didn't even spot a single one.
Upon seeing this scene, Wen Yu began to speculate—these Variant Soul Puppets were indeed the creations of the spirit of the demon lord.
...
The way they infiltrated the Demon Palace was still different from Bai's method—they did not rely on the devourer but rather flew openly to the edge of the Demon Palace. Then, the spirit of the demon lord acted and opened a passage to the interior.
What was similar was that they appeared at the garbage dump of the Negative 999th Layer. At this point, the spirit of the demon lord finally began to explain the ultimate purpose of this plan.
"This is the Demon Palace; you should know that, right?"
"Of course..."
Lord of the Jiang Family looked around, observing the sparkling stars in the garbage dump, and after a moment, he laughed, "I just didn't expect the residence of the lord demon to look like this. Hmm, and this garbage dump you mentioned seems quite dangerous."
Lord of the Jiang Family keenly sensed the spatial undercurrents in the garbage dump—one misstep could teleport him to a different area of the Demon Palace.
Naturally, Lord of the Jiang Family had been to the Demon Palace before. After becoming one of the top seven in the demonic clan military department, he had once listened to the teachings of the demon lord under Feili's guidance. That time, the location was indeed in the Demon Palace. However, what Lord of the Jiang Family observed then was merely an open space along with a fortress; he had not anticipated that the so-called Demon Palace had such a vast hidden space.
In Lord of the Jiang Family's memory, there was no information regarding the layout of the Demon Palace—he only knew that the place where the demon lord lived was called the Demon Palace, without any other information...
This was not because Lord of the Jiang Family did not want to know, but rather because he lacked the channels to acquire such knowledge. Combining this with Lord of the Jiang Family's memories, Wen Yu realized that the Demon Palace and the Demon Realm were indeed like two different worlds. The situation of the Demon Palace was completely unknown to the people of the Demon Realm—while the spirit of the demon lord knew, and perhaps Feili did too, no one else was aware of this secret. The demonic clan residing in the Demon Palace had only a scant understanding of the outside world—they knew there was another world out there, but that was about it.
