Chapter 376: The Demon Emperor Descends, a Turning Point

~8 min read 1,482 words

The two flat words did not contain any rage, nor did they have heaven-shaking might.

But the moment these two words fell, Yingzhao's must-kill spear stopped dead before Su Chen's brow.

Yingzhao's arm muscles knotted, veins bulging, forcibly retracting his own attack, nearly spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Su Chen heard this voice, his heart relaxing, realizing that things had taken a turn, and immediately cut off the connection with the Heavenly Secret Treasure Mirror.

The remaining Heavenly Secret Points were saved.

Ripples appeared in the void.

A phantom of a great sun slowly manifested above the Southern Tianmen.

Su Chen was too familiar with this aura.

It was the origin of the Sun True Fire.

Back on the Lunar Star, he had almost ended up with Yin-Yang imbalance and exploding to death in order to refine this power.

So the owner of this voice went without saying; it could only be the Demon Emperor Di Jun.

"Spare their lives and bring them to the Demon Emperor Hall to see this Emperor."

Di Jun's voice rang out again, still without a hint of emotion, yet carrying the unquestionable supreme imperial authority.

"Thump! Thump!"

In the ruins, the venomous python demon general and other remaining demon soldiers and generals did not hesitate in the slightest, hurriedly kneeling on both knees in unison.

"We, pay respects to His Majesty the Demon Emperor!"

Yingzhao froze in place.

He stared fixedly at Su Chen's brow, where the supreme-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Nine Demon Pagoda, was hidden.

As long as the Wind God Spear had advanced another half-inch, just half an inch, he could have pierced Su Chen's sea of consciousness with the Wind God Spear and obtained that supreme treasure that would have taken his combat power to the next level.

With a supreme-grade innate spiritual treasure, his ranking among the ten great Demon Sages would definitely have squeezed into the top three, and perhaps even cutting off the third corpse in the future to become the first Demon Sage was not impossible.

Greed burned frantically in the bottom of his heart.

But he did not dare.

In the Demon Court, Di Jun was heaven.

The outcome of defying the Demon Emperor's will was even more miserable than dying at the hands of the Wu Clan.

Yingzhao's facial muscles twitched violently, greed and unwillingness intertwined in the depths of his eyes.

A full three breaths passed.

He withdrew the Wind God Spear abruptly, lowering his arrogant head: "I, obey the decree."

Su Chen lay in the pool of blood, looking at Yingzhao's face twisted with extreme unwillingness, a smile pulling at the corner of his mouth.

His life was temporarily saved.

But this old bird's greed had not dissipated, and sooner or later it would become his death warrant; he would have to be extremely careful in the future.

Several Great Luo demon generals who had recovered stepped forward quickly.

The black tiger demon general held two thick black chains in his hands.

The chains were engraved with dense demon race runes, radiating an aura of suppression.

Immortal-Locking Chains, torture instruments specifically used to suppress the magic power and physical bodies of immortals.

"Behave!" The black tiger demon general kicked Su Chen, putting the Immortal-Locking Chains around his neck and limbs.

"Scram!"

Sun Wukong let out a wild roar.

His eyes were blood-red, ignoring the injuries all over his body, swinging the Ruyi Jingu Bang fiercely, wanting to smash it toward the black tiger demon general.

The violent demonic Qi of a late-stage Great Luo rose again, wanting to make a final desperate struggle.

"Monkey brother!"

Su Chen endured the excruciating pain of his internal organs shifting, his left hand gripping Sun Wukong's wrist tightly.

His hand held Sun Wukong's arm firmly, his eyes signaling continuously.

"Little brother! Old Sun would rather die standing than suffer this bird's anger!" Sun Wukong gritted his teeth, the Ruyi Jingu Bang vibrating with a hum.

Su Chen stared into his eyes, secretly transmitting: "Hold on! Since the Demon Emperor has spoken to keep us alive, we are temporarily safe. Fighting to the death now is meaningless."

"But..."

"There are no buts. As long as the green hills remain, there is no need to worry about firewood." Su Chen's voice was filled with absolute calmness.

Sun Wukong looked at Su Chen's pale face and blood-stained body, his chest heaving violently.

Finally, he let go of his hand.

The Ruyi Jingu Bang transformed into a golden light, flying back into his ear.

"Bind us then." Sun Wukong closed his eyes, no longer resisting.

The black tiger demon general snorted coldly, wrapping the thick Immortal-Locking Chains tightly around the two.

The runes lit up, and their magic power was instantly sealed off.

"Take them away!"

Yingzhao stood up, not even looking at the two, ordering coldly.

Su Chen and Sun Wukong were escorted by several demon generals, crossing the Southern Tianmen that had been battered beyond recognition by Di Jiang, and were taken all the way toward the Demon Emperor Hall.

Inside the Southern Tianmen, the chaotic scene caused by Sun Wukong's rampage earlier no longer existed.

The Demon Court's elites acted quickly, teams of heavily armed demon soldiers patrolling, making it impossible for the previous events to repeat.

The various demon generals and officials of the Demon Court returned to their positions, lurking in palaces everywhere.

This was the foundation of the Demon Court that ruled all demons in the Primordial World.

Previously, it was because the Demon Court had never encountered anyone who dared to think of causing trouble in the Demon Court in countless years, allowing Sun Wukong to take advantage of the situation for a short time, which was why he was able to fight his way out of the Southern Tianmen.

At this time, many great demons of the Demon Court were guarding everywhere, so even if a Semi-Sage came, it would be impossible to escape.

Su Chen was severely injured, walking with difficulty.

His mind had already sunk into his body.

The Immortal-Locking Chains sealed his Taiyi magic power, but could not seal his physical body that had initially aligned with the Chaos Dao.

Su Chen silently operated the cultivation method of the "Nine Turns of Chaos."

Just now in the space channel, his physical body was torn by Semi-Sage laws and space turbulence; this was originally a fatal injury, but in the cultivation logic of the "Nine Turns of Chaos," this was the best opportunity for "breaking and then establishing."

He did not try to repair his injuries, but let the destructive injuries spread.

Subsequently, he carefully invoked the last trace of chaotic blood and Qi remaining in the three hundred and sixty-five acupoints.

That weak chaotic Qi, along the broken Five Elements channels, nourished his physical body bit by bit, while the Five Elements channels gradually recovered.

In the dilapidated internal heavens, the Yin-Yang millstone rotated again, and the spinal dragon emitted an extremely faint roar.

Forcibly operating caused the pain to intensify.

Su Chen endured the pain, cold sweat seeping from his forehead, but his pace remained steady.

After walking for a long time, the escorting team passed through layers of heavenly palaces and stopped.

Ahead was a magnificent divine hall built entirely of Sun Divine Gold.

That aura of suppressing the heavens and being the only one supreme already explained its identity; it was the Demon Emperor Hall.

"Go in." The black tiger demon general pushed Su Chen.

Su Chen and Sun Wukong stumbled across the high threshold.

Behind them, the black tiger demon general led a group of demon soldiers and stepped into the main hall.

This was a rare opportunity to see the Demon Emperor, so they naturally would not miss it.

Inside the main hall, two rows of giant divine pillars supported the towering dome.

Reliefs of the demon race conquering the Primordial World were carved on the divine pillars, revealing an ancient and desolate aura of time.

Above the dome, miniatures of the Zhou Tian stars were embedded, three hundred and sixty-five main stars rotating slowly, as if the fate of the entire Primordial World was intertwined within this hall.

At the end of the hall, above ninety-nine jade steps, sat a wide imperial throne.

On the throne sat a man clad in golden golden crow imperial robes; it was the Demon Emperor Di Jun who had previously descended to the lower realm to abduct Sun Wukong.

Di Jun's golden eyes, which seemed to be able to see through the ages and understand everything, landed on Su Chen and Sun Wukong who had entered the hall below.

"Pay respects to His Majesty the Demon Emperor!"

Entering the hall, before Su Chen and Sun Wukong could speak, the demon soldiers and generals behind them knelt on one knee in unison, shouting in unison. ===== CHAPTER 377 =====
