The Heavenly Stream Mountain Range.
This was the birthplace of the Heaven Splitting Battle Ape bloodline. It was also their former base.
However, over a hundred thousand years ago, the Heaven Splitting Battle Ape bloodline had followed the other devil races into the Martial Heaven Continent, sealing this place. Other than the Heaven Splitting Battle Ape bloodline, no one else, no matter how strong they were, was able to break this seal.
Back then, many royal races had coveted the things left behind by the Heaven Splitting Battle Ape bloodline. Regretfully, no one had been able to break through the seal.
As time passed, this place became an uninhabited region.
But today, there were many Earth Yuan experts gathered outside the Heavenly Stream Mountain Range. They came from the various royal races of the Darkness Continent.
The Power Devil race, the Shadow Devil race, the Winged Devil race, the Flame Devil race, and other royal races.
There were many princes here. They were all gathered around one person. That person was the center of attention.
"Mote, I heard that you've already conquered many regions in the human world. They're much larger than the Power Devil race's current base," said one of the princes who had never been to the Martial Heaven Continent.
Mote was a prince of the Power Devil race. He had stayed in the Martial Heaven Continent for a long time. He was Mo Cun's older brother, as well as the prince who had his spirit ring stolen by Zi Chen in the Holy Burial Ground. He had also fought against the Everlasting Sect for a thousand years.
Other than the prince who had spoken, the other princes all looked at Mote. He smiled modestly. "I've conquered some regions, but they're not worth mentioning. The spiritual qi here is too little."
"It's fine as long as there aren't any storms. Speaking of which, how big is the region you've conquered?" asked another prince.
Mote shook his head. "It's not that big. Not counting those independent minor worlds, it should be around forty to fifty regions."
"What? Forty to fifty? And that's not counting the minor worlds?" Everyone was startled.
There were no minor worlds in the Darkness Continent.
Mote rolled his eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "No matter how you look at it, there should be at least a few hundred Power Magic Regions."
The princes were stunned.
Lord Devil swept a glance at everyone, and the smugness in his eyes was obvious. He waved his hand and said, "This is nothing. Recently, I've taken a fancy to a piece of land. The density of spiritual energy there is second only to the Darkness Continent. Therefore, I've decided to find some time to conquer it."
"There's such a place in the human world?" A prince asked in surprise.
"Of course. That's where the Saints were buried during the war with the Demon Clan. Not only is the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi rich, but there are also hundreds of spacious small worlds. The total area is probably comparable to thousands of Power Demon Regions."
The crowd, who were already extremely shocked, was obviously stunned again.
"Are there any experts overseeing that area?"
Mote said disdainfully, "If Earth Prime is considered a strong warrior, then there are a few. But the strongest is only Earth Prime. There are no Ethereal Stage warriors."
The princes' eyes widened in disbelief. "What? Is there such a good thing? Then doesn't that mean as long as we find a Corporeal expert, we'll be able to conquer that region?"
Lord Devil's mouth twitched, and then he nodded awkwardly. "That's true, that's true. However, I don't want to use any experts for now. I want to rely on my own power to conquer that region. This can also count as training."
Everyone's gazes towards Mote were filled with admiration.
But only Lord Devil knew that this wasn't training. It was just that they didn't dare to use any experts that exceeded their power level.
This matter had started when the Demon Clan had first invaded the Martial Heaven Continent. At that time, the Demon Clan had relied on their powerful experts to easily slaughter human cultivators, conquering one region after another. But very quickly, an expert from the human race had appeared. With just a slap, he had killed the Demon Clan's experts who had been wantonly slaughtering the Demon Clan.
That scene could be said to have shocked everyone present. When the human expert's cold gaze swept over them, the Demon Clan's experts all lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.
They had been terrified, thinking that this human expert would also kill them. But unexpectedly, he had only snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Humans were very selfish, especially those experts. But they also had things that they had to uphold.
When that human expert had left, he had also killed the Demon Clan's experts who had attacked. Those who hadn't stayed alive.
Thus, from that day onwards, the battle had always been under control. The experts were in charge of intimidating others, while the others were in charge of fighting.
"Right, Lord Devil, did you specially rush back from the human world because of Zi Chen or because of the Skysplit Battle Ape?" asked one of the princes.
Lord Devil paused for a moment. "Both."
"Just who is Zi Chen? He actually made you make a trip back, and you even brought a Corporeal realm expert with you."
The Corporeal realm was the strongest expert in this world. There were only a few people at this level who were still in the Darkness Continent. Even within each royal family, there were only one or two Corporeal realm experts. They never personally fought. Most of the time, they acted as a trump card to intimidate others.
Lord Devil glanced at the Shadow Devil's people. "This person is very strong. Extremely strong. He is the strongest human expert in the Earth Yuan realm."
Hearing this evaluation, the other princes burst into laughter. However, the Shadow Demons had ugly expressions on their faces. This was because they had used the lives of three princes and one Emptiness Realm expert to prove how powerful Zi Chen was.
Lord Devil's expression was stern. "He is very strong. That's publicly acknowledged in the Martial Heaven Continent. This time, he came to the Darkness Continent because I felt like it was an opportunity to kill him. That's why I had my sister send the news back. Furthermore, I personally rushed back. But I didn't think there would still be people who didn't believe me. Back when Zi Chen was at the Mortal realm, he was already able to kill Earth Yuan experts."
"What?!" Everyone's expressions changed.
The difference between the Mortal and Earth Yuan realms was like heaven and earth. One understood the laws, while the other was still a human. But how could the latter kill the former?
"He has the human race's strongest physique, the perfect body."
"He has three pages of the Heavenly Book. His essence, qi, and spirit are all in a perfect state. He doesn't have any weaknesses."
"When he was at the Mortal realm, he was already able to kill Earth Yuan experts. Furthermore, he was able to kill them instantly."
"When he underwent his Earth Yuan lightning tribulation, he comprehended dozens of laws. He experienced hundreds of lightning tribulations, including the laws of nature, the laws of good and evil, the laws of life, and so on …"
"He …!"
Every time Mote said something, everyone's eyes would widen and their expressions would become more and more shocked. In the end, they were so shocked that their eyes were wide open and their mouths were agape. They couldn't believe what they were hearing.
That was because they weren't sure if Lord Devil was talking about the same person.
"In the Martial Heaven Continent, there are too many factions that want to kill him. However, no one has been able to kill him. No one has had a chance. Furthermore, those who have opposed him have never had a good ending. This time, he came to this world with great difficulty. This is our only chance to kill him. Do you think such a person should be killed?" Lord Devil looked at everyone.
"Yes, he really should be killed."
"This person is too powerful. He will definitely become a famous existence in the future. He will be a huge threat to our demon race's invasion of the human world. He should be killed."
"I haven't seen the Heavenly Book of a human yet. Let's kill him and take it out."
The princes instantly united. However, after learning about Zi Chen's legends, they no longer dared to hope that they could kill him. Instead, they placed all their hopes on the Void Realm and Corporeal realm experts.
Only the shadow devils didn't feel good about this. If they had known that Zi Chen was so powerful, their princes definitely wouldn't have rashly attacked him. Then they wouldn't have died.
"Alright, since everyone agrees, listen to my orders. When I tell you to attack, you can attack," said Lord Devil.
"Why? Aren't we going to kill him as soon as he arrives?"
Lord Devil shook his head. "There's no rush. Let the Heaven Rending Battle Apes enter the Heavenly Stream Mountain Range first. This time, not only will I kill Zi Chen, but I will also take the things left behind by the Heaven Rending Battle Apes."
Lord Devil's plan was very good. Everyone happily agreed.
Next, they hid in the darkness, waiting for the devil ape to arrive.
There was no danger on the way. Let alone Zi Chen, even the devil ape didn't believe that the two of them would be spared.
So when they approached the Heavenly Stream Mountain Range, the devil ape was very careful. At the same time, because of Zi Chen's warning, it deliberately slowed down, stopping outside the Heavenly Stream Mountain Range for a while.
In the space where the Purple Gold Gourd was, Zi Chen sat cross-legged, golden and silver elemental lightning flickering around his body.
On his back, there were originally four wings, but now there were six. However, two of the wings were black and contained an extremely dense demonic aura.
Zi Chen had spent several months, but he still hadn't been able to completely expel the demonic Qi. That was because there was simply too much demonic Qi. Moreover, after more than a hundred thousand years of corrosion, the lightning wings had almost completely changed. If Zi Chen had been any later, the lightning wings would have really turned into demonic wings.
While Zi Chen was using his own energy to expel the demonic Qi from the lightning wings, he was also using the lightning from the other four wings to expel and fuse with the lightning wings. After two months, he finally saw results.
One day, the lightning wings on Zi Chen's back suddenly emitted a dazzling light.
After two months of refinement, the lightning wings had finally fused.
After the fusion, the lightning wings emitted a powerful aura. As the six wings on Zi Chen's back flapped, an indescribable energy appeared, enveloping an area of a thousand Li.
The energy instantly enveloped an area of a thousand Li, forming an indescribable space. After seeing this space, Zi Chen was stunned. "This is … the Mirage."
Zi Chen calmed his heart and sensed this space. Then, his astonishment slowly turned into disbelief, and finally into ecstasy.
This was the Mirage, the real Mirage.
The six wings supported Zi Chen's Mirage. At this moment, Zi Chen was equivalent to an Emptiness Realm Expert, possessing an extraordinary Mirage.
As the lightning wings flapped and contracted, the Mirage appeared and disappeared. In the Mirage, there was a surge of Emptiness Energy. This Emptiness Energy was created by the six wings, but at the same time, Zi Chen could also make Zi Chen use it.
With the help of the six wings, Zi Chen was equivalent to an Emptiness Realm Expert.
