"Yes. The scale of the Phoenix Clan's demon territory is much larger than that of the Dragon Clan. Back then, the Nine Demon Kings were sealed here."
Qin Shi looked at the dark rift valley. Just the baleful aura of the remnant soul was enough to make him tremble.
"Is this the Evil Qi of the Demon King level …" Qin Shi heaved a long sigh of relief. He had been dealing with the Pi Group for a few years, but this was the first time he felt such a terrifying Evil Qi.
"Back then, the Demon King level experts all broke through the reincarnation cycle. When those guys join forces, even I would find it difficult to deal with them." The evil demon nodded.
Qin Shi looked at the evil demon strangely. He had known the evil demon for so many years, but this was the first time he heard that the evil demon was carrying someone else. One should know that the evil demon had always been extremely arrogant. It was one of the two great demon sovereigns of the ancient times and one of the three great kings of the world. It had the right to be arrogant. However, facing the Demon King level aura today, even the evil demon became a little serious.
This made Qin Shi deeply aware that it was very likely that he would have to experience an unprecedentedly tough battle in the Beast Realm.
This battle would probably be even more tragic than the battle in the deep sea.
"Kid, there is a stone tablet there. It should be left behind by the Phoenix Clan when they suppressed the Nine Demon Kings," said the evil demon.
Qin Shi also noticed the red stone tablet at the bottom of the canyon. He wrapped his black robe tightly and slowly flew over.
"Buzz!"
However, when Qin Shi just entered the canyon, he slightly frowned because he immediately felt a strong killing intent from the surroundings.
The evil demon suddenly focused. Almost in an instant, the Evil Qi of the Heaven Devouring Evil Qi protected Qin Shi.
"Kid, be careful. Not all the Evil Demons here have left!" reminded the evil demon.
Boom!
At this moment, a long crack suddenly appeared on the rocky cliff. Countless ferocious demons leaped out from those cracks. There were thousands of them.
However, this was not the reason why Qin Shi was shocked. Qin Shi suddenly raised his head and saw a huge demon hand suddenly covering the canyon. It fell down like a huge mountain, directly sealing the canyon.
As the gigantic hand descended, a gigantic creature that was tens of thousands of feet in size leaped into the air, transforming into a hideous demon head.
"Hehe, Heaven Devouring Demon Sovereign, long time no see." The demon head immediately let out a chilling laugh.
The evil demon's eyes narrowed and became very serious in Qin Shi's body.
"Nine Demon Kings!"
Qin Shi's heart skipped a beat. His eyes were extremely grave. Could this demon head be the Ninth Demon King, one of the Ten Great Demon Kings in ancient times?
"Kid, don't worry. This guy is just a remnant soul. He can't even exert a tenth of his strength." The evil demon calmly said.
The giant demon was startled at first, then he laughed, "As expected of the Devouring Heaven Demon Venerable, you actually saw through my clone in an instant."
"Your original body has three reincarnations. Even if you don't have a physical body, your aura won't be this weak."
The demon rolled its eyes before turning into a shadow and appearing beside Qin Shi. It said indifferently, "Ninth Demon King, you should be clear that this clone of yours is not a match for me today. If you want to fight, it's best if you bring out your original body."
In the next moment, the evil demon's baleful aura burned and a huge mouth appeared, as if it could devour everything.
"As expected of the Demon Sovereign. Hehe, it's a pity that I'm not interested in fighting with you today. I'm just curious about what the descendants of the Human Sovereign were like. But now, it seems that they're just so-so. It's a pity that I was purposely suppressed here thirty thousand years ago."
Nine Demon Kings sneered. Qin Shi raised his head and looked at Nine Demon Kings strangely.
"Kid, don't be so surprised. There were only a few people who could fight against me in the ancient times. In the entire immortal manor, other than the Great Desolation Emperor, the Ocean King, and the Demon Empress, there were only the three generals of the Human World. So, do you think that a little phoenix can suppress me so easily?" Nine Demon Kings mocked.
"The reason why I was suppressed here was actually because of you."
Nine Demon Kings laughed maniacally. "To prepare a grand demon feast for you. Don't worry, you'll see it soon."
"Hehe, I forgot to tell you. Don't count on your fate to protect you this time. Kid, Shrouding Heaven Demon Sovereign has seen your fate before. Your fate overlapped with his the moment you stepped into the Beast World. In other words, from now on, either you or Shrouding Heaven Demon Sovereign can die at any time." Nine Demon Kings laughed excitedly.
After hearing Nine Demon Kings' words, Qin Shi went silent. Back in the Heavenly Mist, Qin Shi learned about the so-called fate from Yuan Kun. At that time, Qin Shi knew that he and Shrouding Heaven were fighting for the heavens, or rather, for their lives. The two of them overlapped in the end, and only one of them could survive.
But he didn't know when. To be more precise, other than Shrouding Heaven, no one else in the world knew about this fate.
But now, Qin Shi learned from Nine Demon Kings that he and Shrouding Heaven had begun to fight for their lives.
Nine Demon Kings laughed coldly. "Hehe, actually, you had no chance of winning at all. In your fate, if you survived the deep sea, you would come to the Beast World. But that old dog Fufeng used thirty thousand years to forcefully change the course of your fate, allowing you to return to the human world and avoid a disaster. But it doesn't matter. The Beast World is a place you have to pass to enter your fate. At most, he can make you a little stronger, but he can't change the result."
But at this time, Qin Shi suddenly laughed. He laughed calmly.
"What are you laughing at?" Nine Demon Kings was stunned. To him, Qin Shi was a man who was about to die.
Qin Shi raised his head and looked at Nine Demon Kings. He laughed coldly. "You just said that my fate has overlapped with Shrouding Heaven's, right?"
"That's right. In other words, even if we follow the fate, we are still qualified to kill you." Nine Demon Kings was stunned for a moment, then he laughed coldly.
"In other words, I can also kill Shrouding Heaven now." Qin Shi laughed.
Nine Demon Kings was stunned for a moment, then a playful look appeared on his face. "Hehe, kid, you really don't know what's good for you. But it doesn't matter. If you want to kill the Demon Sovereign, you have to leave the Beast World alive first. Hehe!"
"Demon, destroy him." Qin Shi didn't want to waste any more time.
The Nefarious Devil King nodded his head. Then, he stretched out his hand, and a dark void shattered the Nine Demon Kings.
Just as the demon had said, Nine Demon Kings, who only had a doppelganger, was no match for the demon. A dark bloody mouth appeared in the sky and tore Nine Demon Kings to pieces. However, Nine Demon Kings did not resist the demon's palm at all. Instead, they were very playful.
"Hehe, Demon Sovereign, destroy him. But it won't be long before the Demon Feast arrives. No one will be able to save this kid."
The Nine Demon Kings' prideful laughter resounded through the heavens and earth, before exploding with a bang. Along with the disappearance of the Nine Demon Kings, the thousands of ferocious demon souls retreated as well. Only then did the seal in this canyon disappear.
Looking at the place where Nine Demon Kings disappeared, Qin Shi's expression gradually turned cold and heavy.
Although it was just a clone, he felt very uneasy when he saw Nine Demon Kings this time.
The reason was simple. Since his fate had overlapped with Shrouding Heaven, it meant that the ancient war was getting closer and closer.
This also meant that that day would eventually come.
Looking at the demon's silent expression, the demon sighed helplessly. He knew that it was useless to persuade Qin Shi now. In fact, he also knew that there was no need to persuade him because Qin Shi was already prepared for this.
"Are you worried about me and Xue Xin?"
Qin Shi couldn't help but clench his fists. He nodded and said, "Actually, I already knew that Shrouding Heaven and I were fated to be together. There was no helping it. With an unreliable ancestor, this battle was inevitable. But I never expected that you and Xue Xin were also part of my fate."
"Actually, you don't have to be like this. At least you don't have to worry about me. In fact, the Human Sovereign could have killed me thirty thousand years ago. In the end, I was sealed for tens of thousands of years. I met you and lived for so many years. I'm very happy.
"That's true, but the burden is really heavy." Qin Shi was a little helpless.
"I always thought that as long as I worked hard, I could change everything. But I was always schemed against by fate. Now, I do have the power to change fate, but … it's so difficult."
Qin Shi let out a long sigh. "This time, I have a feeling that Shrouding Heaven is about to be resurrected. I don't know how much of his three souls and seven spirits have recovered, but it should be soon. The Mark of Sealing is still in their hands."
"Don't worry, there's still time. Although Shrouding Heaven has seen fate, you're also a child of fate. It's hard to say who will win," said the fiend.
"Plus, we'll try our best. Even if we lose, we'll just die together. It's no big deal."
"Let's find the phoenixes first. They're relics from the ancient times, just like the dragons. They can't have been destroyed so thoroughly." Qin Shi sighed.
The fiend hesitated. It seemed like it wanted to say something, but when it saw the light in Qin Shi's eyes, it didn't say anything.
"Ancestor Cai Qing said that the phoenixes have a Nirvana Nirvana?
If we want to find the phoenixes in the void, then the Nirvana Nirvana is the key.
The void is the key. "
"The void might have something to do with the stone stele," said the fiend.
Qin Shi appeared on the only strange stone stele in the valley.
The stele was carved with a phoenix that had been reborn from the flames. It was very exquisite. Just looking at it was enough to shock people.
"Kid, try releasing some of your phoenix energy. Maybe it can resonate with the stele."
Qin Shi followed the Nefarious Devil's instructions. A fire phoenix flew out from his fingertip. The fire phoenix was very exquisite. When the fire phoenix touched the stone tablet, a huge flame vortex suddenly appeared on the stone tablet.
