After this battle, the inner area of the Chaos Realm fell into a long silence. Many inner area disciples were curious about that tragic battle, but no one asked. They all had a tacit understanding.
They only knew that after this battle, there were hundreds of Nine Heavens experts guarding the Life Void Cave every day. They did not slack off at all. Even Chu Deyu personally came to investigate.
But the result was not satisfactory.
Not long after, this news spread to the outer area.
Now, in the outer area, Deng Kai and Xing Moyuan, the two old foxes, had died. The Creation Society had lost its backbone and was almost instantly annihilated by the Mist Alliance.
Yan Moyan did as he said. He did not stay in the Chaos Realm, but he promoted a very righteous Charm Demon Master to become the chief of the Charm Demon Association. His name was Cui Can. After Cui Can took office, he acted boldly and decisively, reforming the Charm Demon Association. The remnants of Deng Kai were all expelled from the association within three days. The Mist Alliance and the Charm Demon Association once again established a relationship.
Xing Moyuan died in battle, and the position of Great Elder in the outer area of the Chaos Realm was empty. An old man called Yan Shuang took over. This old man was at the early Nine Heavens. He was smart and took the initiative to find Fu Jun. He expressed his willingness to support Fu Jun.
Thus, Fu Jun replaced Xu Yan and became Yan Shuang's subordinate. He had the most authority in the outer area, and the power of the Mist Alliance was passed to You Qing.
With the support of the two great authorities in the outer area, the Mist Alliance broke the two-sided situation of the last three years. They became the biggest power in the outer area, establishing the development of the outer area in the next few years.
In order to establish good relations with the Mist Alliance, various powers came to express their goodwill and send gifts. The Mist Alliance had thousands of new disciples every day. Soon, they jumped from thousands of disciples to ten thousand troops. Shen Fengchun, Dunhuang, Wang Kun, Yao Yi, and the other high level members of the Mist Alliance that Qin Shi was familiar with were promoted as well. They went from being in charge of a thousand disciples to being in charge of ten thousand captains.
"I wonder how Brother Qin is doing now."
On the night when the news spread, Fu Jun and the other high level members of the Mist Alliance gathered together. Ye Ling was still virtuous enough to prepare delicious food, but the people present did not have much appetite.
"Life Void Cave … In the end, he still chose this path?"
You Qing released a long sigh. Everyone present was dejected. They all knew how terrifying the Life Void Cavern was. That was a place that no one dared to enter for thousands of years. Even the leader of the Chaos Region had to temporarily avoid it.
"Remember, he is the one who saved the Mist Alliance. He is also the one who gave the Mist Alliance what it is today."
Fu Jun's expression was solemn and filled with holy intent. "Youqing, tomorrow, send someone to build a stone statue of Old Brother Qin at the entrance of the Mist Alliance's headquarters. Consider it a remembrance of him. Don't let his spirit be buried just like that. Tell him to pass on the Mist Alliance."
"Yes."
You Qing agreed. Without Qin Shi, there would be no Mist Alliance. No one questioned this.
…
On the other side.
In a distant place, the sky was dark, and there was a thunderstorm.
The rain fell on the ground. This continent was very vast, as far as the eye could see. The ground was full of shocking cracks and dry ravines. From time to time, a pitch-black baleful aura would leak out from these ravines. This baleful aura was full of evilness.
Occasionally, there would be a flash of light. The baleful aura on the ground would rise to the sky and be guided away by the light.
From this, it could be seen that this continent, where day and night did not exist, was no longer the human world.
This was the Demon World, a place where vicious demons lived.
If someone was here, they would feel their hair stand on end and fear would rise in their heart without even doing anything.
Boom!
In an extremely deep place of this continent, there was a cave filled with blood aura. At the top of this cave, there were six inviolable words floating: Bloodthirsty Demon Venerable Cave Dwelling.
Suddenly, a loud sound came from the cave. A surge of power disturbed the clouds.
If Qin Shi was here, he would definitely be taken aback. Wasn't this Bloodthirsty Demon Venerable the same Bloodthirsty Demon Venerable that the Divine Charm Tree told him under the Jade Lava Volcano? The Demon Venerable that went to Scarlet Flame and built a palace under the volcano?
Moreover, the power just now was thousands of times more terrifying than Chu Deyu's Grand Completion Wind Region. If Chu Deyu were here, he would not be able to resist even one attack.
In the depths of the bloody hole, a figure with an indistinct appearance sat in the main hall. Beneath him was a chair piled up with white bones. From these bones, one could tell that these deceased were all vicious demons. Moreover, all of them had their essence blood sucked away. It was too horrible to look at.
This figure was completely red. He suddenly looked in the direction of the human world. His eyes were filled with excitement. "This power, is it the Heaven Devouring Ancestral Mark?
After thirty thousand years, there is finally a reaction? "
"Men!"
The Bloodthirsty Demon Venerable shouted. Immediately, dozens of extremely vicious energies gathered around the bloody cave.
"Pass down the order. The Demon Venerable has awakened and will return soon. Tell the subordinates to prepare."
"Yes!" The dozens of figures answered in succession.
"The Great War of Heaven and Earth, after thirty thousand years, is it finally going to start again?"
Looking at the scattered figures, the Bloodthirsty Demon Venerable's eyes flashed with a hint of gloominess. His demonic claws clenched hard on the chair of bones, and the extremely sturdy white bones instantly turned to dust.
… …
So painful!
A heart-wrenching pain!
This was the only thought in Qin Shi's mind after waking up countless times in the darkness.
He felt that his soul was about to be torn apart.
"Qin Shi, Qin Shi, wake up, don't sleep, I beg you, don't sleep!"
A sweet and hurried voice rang in Qin Shi's ears. He slightly opened his eyes. The first thing that came into view was Kong Hyun-hui's beautiful face. Her beautiful eyes were still filled with sparkling tears.
"You're awake?
You're finally awake! "
When Qin Shi woke up, Kong Hyun-hui's anxious face finally revealed a light smile.
Qin Shi rubbed his head. His consciousness gradually began to recover, and fragments of memories were reorganized in his mind.
Blood Sacrifice, Evil Demon, Yuwen Shang, Chu Deyu, Kong Hyun-hui, Life Void Cave …!
The pain transmitted again. Qin Shi's throat was dry as he spat out a mouthful of turbid air. However, this time, he was not affected by the pain. Instead, an indescribable anger rushed to his head.
He forcefully clenched his fists and wanted to stand up, but he indifferently discovered that his body was not listening to him.
"Evil Demon …!" Helpless, he could only forcefully call out in his heart.
"Little guy, you're awake?" The evil demon's weak voice sounded. It was very pale.
"How are you?" Qin Shi urged.
"Hehe, you're already injured to this extent, and you still have the heart to care about me?
Not bad, not bad, this brother, I didn't recognize you in vain. I didn't risk my life to save you in vain. "The evil demon weakly laughed.
"I've implicated you."
Qin Shi bit his lip. The corner of his lip was broken, and a thick smell of blood spread out from his mouth.
A few wisps of faint killing intent flowed out from his arm, like a small hand holding Qin Shi. "Don't say that. In fact, for tens of thousands of years, no matter how powerful I am, I've always been alone. Now that I think about it, it's really quite lonely. I'm very happy to have met you."
"Moreover, not only are you lucky, but so am I. This little injury is not a big deal. Even that old guy, the Human Emperor, couldn't kill me, let alone a little old dog in the Domain Realm."
"Then you're going to sleep again?" Qin Shi was a little sad.
The evil demon bitterly smiled. "You know me well, but this time I'm afraid I'll sleep for a very long time. Now that you're in danger, I'm really worried."
Seeing Qin Shi's depression, the evil demon laughed again. "Actually, you don't have to worry. If it was five years ago, with such serious injuries, you might not wake up for a very long time. However, it's different now. You're not that ignorant little guy anymore. You can hold up the sky by yourself. You can help me."
"How can I help you?"
"Demons. Help me find some demons. They'll help me wake up sooner."
The evil demon's voice became weaker and weaker. In the end, he only left a few words. "Little guy, next time we meet, I hope you can bring me some surprises and miracles."
The evil demon's voice sank in his heart and disappeared. Qin Shi's face gradually froze.
"Evil demon, go to sleep. The next time you wake up, you'll be in a safe place. If we're still in the Chaos Realm, then it'll be time for me to take revenge." Qin Shi's black eyes flashed with coldness and killing intent.
After that, he looked up at the sky. In this Life Void Cave, there were milky white stalagmites. These stalagmites were very transparent. It was obvious that they had been formed after hundreds or thousands of years of precipitation.
"What a mess."
He looked inside his body and couldn't help but bitterly smile.
In his dantian, his primordial spirit sat cross-legged on the crystal core. The first four spirit veins, which had turned into palaces, were on the verge of shattering. Even the tiles were cracked. The last four spirit veins were even worse. They were even broken, and a large amount of spiritual energy was leaking out.
If there was one spirit vein that was not damaged, it would be the fifth spirit vein that was sealed by the Thunder-Sealing Lock. This Thunder-Sealing Lock was really terrifying to the extreme. Under Chu Deyu's terrifying attacks, it was still intact.
In short, Qin Shi's current injuries were really disappointing. If it was an ordinary person, even if they didn't die, they would be crippled.
"It seems that it's impossible to recover in a short time. I really need to recuperate."
Qin Shi thought. After all, he was not an ordinary person. His body was protected by the Dragon Bone, Phoenix Blood, and the Falling Star Tyrant Body Art. Therefore, although his injuries were serious, it was not impossible for him to recover if he was given some time.
What really gave him a headache was that he was now in a dangerous place.
"Life Void Cave …!"
"Hiss …!"
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but frown. The sharp pain in his sea of consciousness came again. It felt as if a piece of red-hot iron was deeply imprinted on his soul.
In the Life Void Cave, countless soul wind blades attacked him like wild beasts, as if they wanted to tear him apart.
"How terrifying!"
Feeling his sea of consciousness constantly shaking, he couldn't help but grit his teeth. Fortunately, his sea of consciousness was protected by the Ancient Xuantian Formation.
"If it wasn't for the Ancient Xuantian Formation, I'm afraid my soul would have been scattered. No wonder this Life Void Cave was listed as a forbidden area in the Chaotic Zone. If it was an ordinary person, even if they were in the Domain Realm, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to last for an incense stick's worth of time."
He couldn't help but feel lucky. At the same time, he looked at Kong Hyun-hui, who was different from an ordinary person. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times. Under this terrifying Life Void Cave, Kong Hyun-hui was actually no different from an ordinary person?
