Chapter 1223: Chapter 373: Entering the Demon Realm (Part 5)

Tian Hao was surprised, looking toward the direction of the Demon King.

He knew the Demon King had just fallen asleep not long ago, how could he have awakened again?

Could something be happening?

Tian Hao felt slightly uneasy, sensing something unusual was happening.

Soon, Tian Hao knew the reason.

The killing intent of the Three Pure Ones came from the Three Realms, directly targeting the Demon King.

The Demon King asked in a deep voice, “Elder Lord, what do you mean by this?”

The three streams of killing intent quickly retreated like a tide, leaving the Demon King utterly confused.

He saw Tian Hao and summoned him.

“Greetings, Demon King.”

Tian Hao cupped his hands, but did not perform a full bow.

His status and strength in the Demon Realm were lower than the Demon King, but he did not need to bow deeply, just a slight cupping of the hands sufficed.

“What is going on? What madness is the Elder Lord up to?”

The Demon King asked.

Tian Hao was also somewhat puzzled. After thinking for a moment, he said, “A few days ago, a Sub-Paramount from the Heavenly Court intruded into the Demon Realm and caused trouble, being forced into the Dark Abyss. Perhaps they are warning us not to kill that Sub-Paramount because of that Heavenly Court Supreme.”

Dark Abyss—upon hearing this name, the Demon King furrowed his brow.

Nonetheless, he felt that the Three Pure Ones were making too big a fuss.

It’s just a Sub-Paramount, is it worth such a spectacle and threats against himself?

The Demon King also realized that the Three Pure Ones had just threatened him, warning him not to intervene, or else they would rip away their friendly facade and come to kill him.

Thinking of this, the Demon King impatiently said, “I understand now. Since he entered the Dark Abyss, he likely won’t survive. Forget about him. Now that you have become an independent individual, cherish the opportunity, train hard, and strive to break into the Creation Realm as soon as possible.”

“Yes.”

Tian Hao smiled slightly.

He also did not take Nezha seriously and felt that the Three Pure Ones were making a fuss over nothing.

However, thinking of the relationship between Nezha and Yang Jian, Tian Hao felt that perhaps it was Yang Jian who pressured the Three Pure Ones, causing them to act in this way.

Yang Jian, now the Second Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, carrying the majesty of the entire Heavenly Court, could indeed exert some influence on the Three Pure Ones.

And the swift rise and fall of the Three Pure Ones’ killing intent also indicated their attitude; it was merely for show.

As long as the Demon King did not intervene in Nezha’s affairs, they wouldn’t take action.

“Haha, as the Heavenly Court grows, the situation for the Three Pure Ones will become more and more difficult. They fostered the Heavenly Court initially, but it has now turned into a force that restricts them. Truly ironic.”

Tian Hao laughed in his heart.

He didn’t pay much heed and turned away to leave.

After all, even if nobody acts against Nezha, he’s doomed.

The Dark Abyss, even if he enters it, would require a lot of effort to escape, and he might even be severely wounded.

That place in the Demon Realm is a perilous area, containing great dangers.

To the point where even Tian Hao hasn’t ventured into the deepest parts of the Dark Abyss.

The Demon King had once warned Tian Hao not to go into the depths of the Dark Abyss; otherwise, even with Heavenly Emperor level strength, he would be at risk of death.

Tian Hao naturally did not doubt the Demon King’s words.

He had witnessed with his own eyes the Demon King enter the deepest part of the Dark Abyss, only to return severely injured.

It must be noted that at that time, the Demon King had already reached the Creation Realm.

Tian Hao once asked the Demon King about what had happened, but the Demon King refused to say, merely cautioning him not to enter the Dark Abyss himself.

Once he reached the Creation Realm, he would know.

No matter how clever Tian Hao was, he hadn’t realized that the reason the Three Pure Ones warned the Demon King was because Sun Wukong had entered the Demon Realm.

A single Nezha, even with Yang Jian pleading, could not make the Three Pure Ones go to such lengths.

Sun Wukong, upon entering the Demon Realm, immediately concealed himself.

He didn’t dare to leak even the slightest bit of his aura.

This was Sun Wukong’s first time entering the Demon Realm, and he looked around curiously.

Surrounding him were blue skies and white clouds, along with lush vegetation, full of life.

This place seemed no different from the Three Realms.

If there was any distinction, it was the constantly swirling demonic aura that nourished specific living beings of the Demon Realm.

Sun Wukong absorbed some of the demonic aura and successfully refined it.

At the same time, his Primordial Demonic Qi also started absorbing the demonic aura here; Sun Wukong could feel the Primordial Demonic Qi trembling, as though it was moaning in comfort.

The breath here was a great supplement for the Primordial Demonic Qi.

As the Primordial Demonic Qi absorbed, a storm of demonic aura formed around Sun Wukong, with massive amounts of it pouring into his body, refined by the Primordial Demonic Qi.

In just a few breaths, the demonic aura within thousands of miles was almost entirely swept away.

Sun Wukong was startled, and without a second thought, he fled far away.

Such a considerable commotion would undoubtedly attract the strong ones of the Demon Realm.

Indeed, shortly after Sun Wukong left, strong individuals from the Demon Realm arrived.

They were two Heavenly Venerates, observing the surroundings with bewilderment, finding nothing.

“What’s going on?”

They exchanged puzzled glances.

The two Heavenly Venerates sensed the disturbance of demonic aura here, initially thinking a demon treasure had emerged,

but upon arriving, they found nothing.

“It might be that a senior was breaking through here, causing such a commotion. We should leave quickly; if we anger that senior, our lives could be at risk.”

One of the Demon Realm Heavenly Venerates said.

The other nodded fervently, his face showing some fear.

Initially drawn by the prospect of a demon treasure, they had rushed over in excitement.

Now they suddenly realized that if a demon senior was cultivating here, creating such a vast disturbance, their arrival was like delivering themselves to danger.

With that thought, the two Demon Realm Heavenly Venerates swiftly departed.

If they were noticed, they were surely doomed.

Sun Wukong had already fled thousands of miles away, cautiously concealing his tracks, making it difficult even for a Supreme to discover him.

As long as Sun Wukong doesn’t foolishly approach Tian Hao or the Demon King, there would be no risk of exposure.

Unlike Nezha, who caused trouble upon entry and ended up surrounded.

When he tried to fight his way out, he realized he had underestimated the strength of Demon Realm experts, forcing him to continuously fight and flee, recently reaching the Dark Abyss, where he became trapped.

Sun Wukong, on the other hand, hid his traces and carefully blended in, so no one paid him any mind.

But, where to find Nezha?

Sun Wukong felt troubled; in a vast and boundless Demon Realm, finding one person would not be easy.

This was not the Immortal Realm, where Sun Wukong had myriad connections.

If all else failed, he could ask the Elder Lord to calculate the whereabouts of even a Supreme.

But here in the Demon Realm, he couldn’t openly search for someone.

If Tian Hao knew he was in the Demon Realm, the next pursuit might be to rescue him.

“Better find someone to ask.”

Sun Wukong thought for a moment, then transformed his appearance into that of a middle-aged face of a Demon Realm expert.

As for his aura, he also transformed it, completely resembling a Demon Realm expert.

Even if Tian Hao stood in front of him, he would probably fail to identify Sun Wukong’s true identity, only seeing him as a Demon Realm expert.

After changing his form, Sun Wukong swaggered through the Demon Realm.

He sensed the aura around, then moved toward a place with the most living creature auras.

A new book, “This Martial Artist is Too Fierce,” has been released, reaching nearly a hundred thousand words. It’s worth checking out and collecting.
