Chapter 392 - Encounter with the Demon Lord, Again
Nie Li sat under the Spiritual Void Wall with the verses of the chant projected on his retinas.
It was the [God Tongue] cultivation technique!
This cultivation technique was created by a supreme expert. Reaching the limit, you’d be able to gain Deity ranked power.
The [God Tongue] cultivation technique was on par with the [Heavenly God] cultivation technique.
Could the owner of the Void Illusionary Divine Palace be the legendary Ancestral Master Daozang, the same one who’d created the [God Tongue] cultivation technique?
The Ancestral Master Daozang was an extremely formidable figure.
He was also one of the most mysterious figures lost to history. No one knew anything about his life, only that he’d fought and held his own against the full-strength Sage Emperor. He hadn’t won, but he’d manage to fully escape. Afterwards, he sealed away the Sage Emperor’s demonic bone, and vanished without a trace.
Nie Li wondered whether this Void Illusionary Divine Palace was actually the tomb of the Ancestral Master Daozang.
The [God Tongue] technique is even harder to cultivate than the [Heavenly God] cultivation technique, as it requires the practitioner to have a sincere heart. Even though Nie Li had experienced two lifetimes’ worth of cultivation, he was still human. It was extremely difficult for him to cultivate the [God Tongue] to its full extent.
Nie Li quietly sat before the Spiritual Void Wall and stared at the various inscription patterns.
As Nie Li and his group quietly comprehended the wall, a pale-faced youth appeared.
Nie Li’s pupils shrank and a chilling bloodlust flashed through his eyes.
It’s the Demon Lord!
He never expected to encounter him in a place like this.
The Demon Lord clearly hadn’t entered through the life gate. So how did he get in?
The Demon Lord swept an eye over his surroundings and ignored the cultivators as he approached the Spiritual Void Wall. Nie Li was still disguised as a demon clan expert, so the Demon Lord didn’t recognise him as he seated himself amongst the crowd.
The Demon Lord sat only a dozen meters away from Nie Li. Surges of a mysterious aura curled around the Demon Lord.
Based on that aura, Nie Li could tell that the Demon Lord had reached 8-fate; however, there was something else inside that aura, something mysterious and powerful that caused a chill in Nie Li’s heart.
Thanks to the vine inside Nie Li’s body, his cultivation wasn’t that fast. If it hadn’t been for the Demon Blood Sacrifice, he’d still be at 5-fate. However, the Demon Lord possessed the Supreme Physique; therefore, his cultivation had soared by leaps and bounds.
Nie Li remembered how Ye Zong had died at the hands of the Demon Lord, and his heart was filled with cold bloodlust. If it wasn’t for him not being able to kill anyone here, he would’ve already taken action. Even though there was something cold and mysterious inside the Demon Lord’s body, Nie Li did not fear him.
The problem was that if he killed the Demon Lord now, the best he could do was lower the Demon Lord’s cultivation by one stage.
The Demon Lord paid no attention to anything as he sat cross-legged and stared at the crystal jade wall with a deep expression.
Xiao Yu had met the Demon Lord once, back in the Tiny World. She recognised him, and knew that there was bad blood between him and Nie Li. She couldn’t help glancing at Nie Li with concern. She sensed that the Demon Lord was a dangerous opponent.
The Demon Lord looked around him in disdain, then said, “I never expected there to be so many people gathered around here. But you guys are stuck at such a low level; it just means that you’re not fated for the Ancestral Master Daozang’s secret treasure!”
The Demon Lord stood up, and approached the crystal jade wall.
Everyone’s attention was focused on the Demon Lord.
“Someone’s trying to break the crystal jade wall!”
“Hahaha! He’s so full of himself. It’s impossible to break the crystal jade wall!”
“He’ll probably go crying home about his failure!”
Countless people had tried to break the inscription patterns before. All of them had ended in failure.
