Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios
Demon Master Li Gou was a trusted aide of the Demon God. His influence within ck me Capital was apparent.
Soon after, he found a peaceful location as per Fang Yuan’s request.
Furthermore, two pretty, well-dressed Demon maids brought drinks and snacks to him.
“Haha... Mister Dream, let’s have a drink!” Demon Master Li Gou raised his cup. “This is Nine Nether Cold Spring, and this is the Frozen me Demon Fruit. Hehe, how could those wretched, ignorant ones understand our interests?”
His informationwork was so extensive that he even knew about Fang Yuan’s preferences from when he was in the bar.
As Demon Masters, devouring Demon Spirits could not bring them many benefits anymore.
Demon Master Li Gou felt that Fang Yuan, this Mister Dream, was the type with strange interests.
Fortunately, there were not many Demon Masters like this. Naturally, he weed those with special interests ordingly.
“Not bad!” Fang Yuan drank the Nine Nether Cold Spring. “It’s refreshing!”
“As a member of the ck me Demons, I’ve cultivated fire-attribute techniques for a long time, so I need to have this Cold Spring to neutralize it from time-to-time. I only eat the Demon Fruit on special asions!” Demon Master Li Gou said as if he were introducing a treasure.
“Thank you!”
The so-called Frozen me Demon Fruit was a strange fruit. It was asrge as a red date, ice cracks covered its surface, and it was split into two colors.
There were two opposing energies inside the fruit, like fire and water. If an ordinary Demon consumed it, their stomach might explode. But when the Demon Master ate it, he indulged in the sensation of various energies circting within his mouth. It was a special vor.
After eating two fruits, Fang Yuan gazed at Demon Master Li Gou and asked with a slight smile, “Well... since you’ve been so courteous, I wonder what you’d like from me?”
“I wonder... Mister Dream, where did you cultivate?” Demon Master Li Gou paused for a moment before continuing, “Are you interested in joining my ck me Army?”
The ck me Army was naturally the soldiers of Demon God ck me. Of course, they were more like the overlord’s army, working for whoever was the overlord of the ck me Territory.
“Are you... recruiting me?” Fang Yuan was slightly dumbfounded. “As far as I know, Demon God ck me is about to take on Demon God Messiah’s challenge, right? Are you that confident?”
If Demon God ck me fell in battle, Messiah would be the overlord. If he continued to recruit soldiers, he would merely be recruiting them for someone else.
“Haha... there’s no way my master will lose!” Demon Master Li Gou said confidently.
However, no matter what Fang Yuan asked afterward, he remained silent.
From the looks of it, this Demon God ck me either has a trump card up his sleeve, or he’s just ying a pig to eat a tiger. He’s someone who doesn’t stand out, but when he does, it is shocking.
Seeing this reaction, Fang Yuan had an idea of what was going on. But even so, he refused. “Sorry... I have important matters to settle. When therge teleportation array opens, I have to get moving.”
“That’s a pity...” Demon Master Li Gou sighed and stood up. “If you change your mind, you can see me anytime. I have maids serving on these premises. If you need anything, feel free to tell them.”
Looking at the back of the Demon Master leaving, Fang Yuan’s eyes shed.
A hazy phantom submerged into the Demon Master’s shadow.
...
Demon Master Li Gou did not notice at all and went to the city lord’s mansion.
From the side, two Demon Masters came forward and asked, “How did it go? I heard you were dealing with another Demon Master from outside?”
“That’s right. The public order in the capital is getting worsetely...” Demon Master Li Gou sighed. “For example, even though this Mister Dream seems weak, when he acts, he doesn’t hesitate at all, cold-blooded and ruthless!”
“The overlord battle is like hurling a stone into water. There’s bound to be many waves. Demon Masters are merely a little bigger. It wouldn’t be surprising even if Demon Gods came!”
Another elderly Demon Master sighed. He had bones growing all over, and his horns looked vicious.
“As long as he doesn’t cause trouble, we’ll stay polite. Even though Mister Dream is ruthless, he’s reasonable.” Demon Master Li Gou shook his head. “Unfortunately... since he wants to leave, I couldn’t recruit him into the army.”
“Speaking of which, Li Gou, you’re awfully confident in our overlord! Even though Demon God Messiah is secretive, I hear that she’s entered the Myriad Transformations realm!” a female Demon Master said.
“Even if she’s at Myriad Transformations, she’s no match for our overlord! Just wait!” Demon Master Li Gou was very confident.
The three Demon Masters were invested in their conversation and did not realize that an illusionary presence was recording and reporting everything to Fang Yuan.
“It seems like Demon God ck me isn’t simple at all...”
Fang Yuan stared at a firefly-like bug on his hand with a thoughtful expression. “This Messiah is also very mysterious. In another fifteen days, I can watch a good show!”
...
The ck me sun rose and fell as usual. Before long, fifteen days passed.
Outside ck me Capital, on ck me Peak.
Numerous high-level Demons filled the entrances.
Even though they knew that once the Demon Gods began their battle, they might lose their lives with a small miscalction. In order to attain higher realms, these Demons still came.
Fang Yuan still maintained his image as a Demon General. He ascended ck me Peak without Demon Master Li Gou, mixed into a crowd of Demon Generals, and remained inconspicuous.
On the other hand, Demon Master Li Gou, Demon Master Bai Gu, and other Demon Masters stood at the front, upying the best view.
“Prepare the Demon God Battle tform!”
He recited an incantation.
A massive stone stage emerged on ck me Peak.
The tform seemed like it had many runes engraved on the ck granite, and it carried the scent of blood and battle.
This was the Demon God Battle tform. It was also known as the tform of Blood, specially designed for Demon duels.
The one on ck me Peak could withstand the full extent of a Demon God’s power.
Even so, Demon Master Li Gou was not satisfied. He recited another spell together with hispanions, and a thick barrier appeared around the tform.
“It turns out there are defense mechanisms in ce. No wonder these Demon Generals dared toe and watch!” Fang Yuan nodded. Suddenly, he looked eastward. “They’re here!”
Swoosh!
A ck me shot over andnded in the middle of the tform.
Rumble!
A cloud of dust flew up from the big hole where hended. It regenerated immediately.
“We pay respects to the overlord!”
“Greetings, Demon God ck me!”
...
The surrounding Demons knelt.
This Demon God’s body was qualified for Fang Yuan to take another look.
Using the Heavenly Eye Seer Spell, he spotted many things that others could not notice. “Yep, this Great Dao is indeed ck mes. But unlike the rumors, his cultivation isn’t at Void Amalgamation. Instead, he’s reached the Myriad Transformations realm. No wonder Demon Master Li Gou is so confident in him! Hm? Wait!”
Other than the ck mes, Fang Yuan saw a strange light in Demon God ck me!
This strange streak of light was ck and restrained. He would not be able to see it without using the Heavenly Eye Seer Spell.
Furthermore, the Omnidirectional Divine Demonic Armament Dao inside his body began reacting restlessly.
“Oh? It seems like other than his secret advancement to Myriad Transformations, he has another hidden weapon up his sleeve. No wonder he’s fearless!”
Demon God ck me evidently had many hidden secrets.
Of course, those who could cultivate to the level of Demon God meant that they had had fortuitous encounters and lucky chances. Fang Yuan was unconcerned.
“Rise!” A deep voice came, ordering the Demons to get up.
mes fanned out to present the Demon God that ruled the ck me Territory. He was barefoot, wearing arge ck robe, and exposing his pale skin.
He was bald without a single strand of hair, and his chiseled face had a cold expression.
He gave off a piercing, intense energy when he spoke.
“Unexpectedly, he’s cultivated his mes to such a terrifying degree of coldness! Truly reversing Yang back into Yin!”
Fang Yuan sighed.
At this time, another Demon God walked onto the tform.
It was a female Demon God wearing a silver mask.
From Fang Yuan’s perspective, she was like moonlight approaching the ground. She was also a Myriad Transformations Demon God!
“Demon God Messiah!”
Fang Yuan could not help calling out her name.
This Demon God had mysterious origins, and it felt like she had appeared out of nowhere. But her first appearance waspeting for the title of an overlord, so her ambition and strength were inevitably great.
“The battle over who bes the ck me Overlord begins now!
“This battle is a disy of your abilities. Even if it is a fight to the death, there’ll be no resentment!”
A trembling Demon Master walked forward and swung his right hand to signal the start.
Rumble!
The next instant, the tworge auras began their battle like two vicious beasts defending their territory.
Buzz buzz!
The defensive barrier vibrated as though it would break in the next moment.
The Demons observing lost all strength in their legs. They nearly knelt on the ground once again.
“Messiah, I want you to know that challenging me was a huge mistake!”
Shortly after standing opposite each other, Demon God ck me made the first move.
A Great Dao rushed out above his head, shooting ck mes toward the sky.
“ck me Great Dao!” A narrow tributary flowed out from the ck me Great Dao. “Hurricane Great Dao! Wind assists fire, attack!”
“That is the Hurricane Great Dao branching out from ck me Great Dao!”
“Being able to use one Dao to disy myriad Daos, Overlord ck me must be at Myriad Transformations!”
“All hail the Demon God! All hail the Demon God!”
Watching this, the low-level Demons began cheering.
“Is that so?” Messiah backed off continuously. In an instant, she stood at the edge of the tform. “I want you to know everything you’ve done has been a joke! Moonlight!”
Swoosh!
Suddenly, the dark sun faded away, and a bright moon descended.
A silver river seemed to fall from the heavens, and a moon had fallen from it.
“So, Messiah’s fundamental Great Dao is the Moon Great Dao!”
