It turns out that the Yan Luo Demon Lord didn't die at all. A remnant soul of his still lingers, and the strange changes in this world, along with the opening of the Yan Luo Secret Realm, were all intentional on the part of the Yan Luo Holy Lord.
In fact, the destruction of this stronghold of the Yan Luo Demon Tribe back then wasn't due to a war with the Heaven Realm's human race but was for the sake of competing for leadership within the Demon Tribe.
All of this surpassed everyone's imagination. They were all tempted by the treasures of the Yan Luo Demon Tribe, falling into his trap one by one.
This guy is truly terrifying, constantly scheming against everyone. Even the Holy Lord of the Yan Luo Demon Tribe was caught in his calculations, becoming just a part of his chessboard.
No, it's not just the people of the Yan Luo Demon Tribe. Even the assassins of the Wukong Organization have become part of his schemes.
Previously, Jue Ming had mentioned that in order to reach the pinnacle of martial arts, he could even sacrifice his own son. Thinking this way, sacrificing some of his subordinates is nothing.
"Who are you, who exactly are you? The human race can't possibly know the secrets of my tribe. Also, why haven't any members of the Demon Tribe come here?"
The demon tree sent out its thoughts, full of anger. The Ten Thousand Realms Demon Tree can best absorb the power of the Demon Tribe, which would allow its remnant soul to revive better. The essence and life of the human race alone aren't enough.
"Hahaha, Yan Luo Holy Lord, you died too soon. Nowadays, this land has no Demon Tribe. Not long after your Yan Luo Demon Tribe's stronghold was destroyed, the Abyss Demon Tribe started wars against various races of the Heaven Realm. As a result, the Heaven Realm shattered. Countless epochs passed before the Heaven Realm reunited. Now, this area is human territory, so naturally, no Demon Tribe will appear. The Demon Tribe and the human race are irreconcilable foes."
Jue Ming laughed heartily, "So, you can't absorb any power from the Demon Tribe. That's your biggest mistake. You're outdated, and you have no idea about this world. Just obediently become nourishment for us and watch as I ascend to the peak."
"What? The Heaven Realm shattered, and the Demon Tribe waged war against various races?"
The demon tree trembled continuously, filled with shock and rage, with chaotic thoughts flashing incessantly.
Boom! Suddenly, all the demonic energy tentacles abruptly turned, stabbing toward the treetop.
"Yan Luo Holy Lord, since I know everything, do you think I would be unprepared?"
Jue Ming sneered coldly, holding a black stone in his hand. With a gentle squeeze, the black stone glowed.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! All the black tentacles turned again, piercing Wind Reversal and the others who had been previously dropped to the ground, lifting them up once more.
Poison Luo Xin and the others took the opportunity to try to escape, but before they could, those black tentacles came back, launching a fierce attack.
"Hahaha, I'm not some foolish human who doesn't understand the situation here!"
Jue Ming laughed loudly, "I know all about your Yan Luo Demon Tribe's things. In fact, I've entered this Yan Luo Secret Realm several times before and have already figured out the situation here. The core hub of this grand formation was long controlled by me. Without these humans, I could still come here. The reason I brought these humans was to hasten your maturity. Without these humans, how would you have appeared?"
"Yan Luo Holy Lord, right now, I'm the one in charge here, not you!"
"You were once a Holy Lord, but now you're just a remnant soul. How can you compete with me?"
Jue Ming laughed up to the sky, full of confidence and wisdom in his grasp.
"Who exactly are you? Why do you possess the Yue Dao Demon Stone? You're not human... who exactly are you?"
The Yan Luo Holy Lord roared in anger.
"Hahaha, I am not of the human race, or how else would I know about this place? I am from the Saint Demon Tribe..." Jue Ming sneered coldly, and an invisible force of the demon path surged from him, "Without the power of the demon path, how could I activate the Yue Dao Demon Stone?"
