Chapter 3562: Underground Demon Palace

At the instant the Godslaying Bow appeared, the Giant Spirit Demon already felt that intense pressure.

Everyone and demon beasts nearby were also shaken by the pressure of the Godslaying Bow, trembling with fear.

"How is this possible? My soul was instantly destroyed by that brat, and he even has such a weapon..."

The Giant Spirit Demon had just felt the backlash on his soul, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth; now, locked on by the Godslaying Bow, he couldn't move at all.

The arrow flashed and struck in an instant, giving it no chance to react—with a boom, it blew the Giant Spirit Demon's head apart, annihilating his soul as well.

The monk also rushed over at this time. The Godslaying Bow wasn't aimed at him, so he could still move, but he was obviously straining to resist that pressure.

Ye Liuyun didn't immediately put the Godslaying Bow away; instead, relying on its pressure, he controlled the Demon Slaying Sword and Heaven Devour to kill the remaining demons and demon beasts before storing the Godslaying Bow.

Only then did the Sealing Demon Tablet dare to approach and absorb the energy within the Giant Spirit Demon's body.

The monk also came forward and bowed to Ye Liuyun in thanks: "Thank you for risking your life to save me. I've been trapped by this demon here for over ten years; finally I'm free!"

"Senior, no need for formalities. Now that the demon leader is gone, wait for me to tidy up the aftermath, and then we can talk slowly."

Ye Liuyun also put away his weapons, first recalling the metal puppet for the weaponsmith to repair, then releasing some mercenaries for Xu Rong to lead them in patrolling the surroundings. Only then did he sit down on the ground with the monk to chat.

"This Sheng Mo Gu is the territory where that Giant Spirit Demon cultivated his power. Years ago, to save a human martial cultivator, I rushed in and fought him, never expecting him to use deceit, tricking me into expending too much strength, and then we reached a stalemate here.

We are both at the Second Stage of Dong Tian, so for over ten years neither of us could overcome the other, we've been locked in a stalemate, but he has many subordinates and develops quickly; if it weren't for you coming, I'm afraid I would have died here!"

The monk said this and bowed again to Ye Liuyun in thanks.

"I have also encountered Buddhist seniors before who helped me and saved my life; it was just a small effort, senior, no need for formalities.

But why did this Giant Spirit Demon come here to develop his power? With your strength so high, why did you also come to the Taixu World? Above the Taixu Realm, is it the Cave Heaven Realm?"

Ye Liuyun had many questions about the monk's words.

The monk then immediately began to explain to Ye Liuyun.

"Above the Taixu Realm is the Cave Heaven Realm. The Taixu World is merely a general term; beyond the domain there are many star systems, and many star connections have Cave Heaven Realm experts.

After entering the Void Realm, one begins to establish one's own Cave Heaven World, which is what we commonly call a Space World. However, a Cave Heaven World is much larger than the ordinary Space World spoken of. Only with a sufficiently large Space World can one advance to the Cave Heaven Realm.

But the Taixu World has no higher realm above Cave Heaven. Those stronger experts live in the universe outside the Taixu World. When you naturally reach the Cave Heaven Realm, you will understand the principle.

The reason that demon came to this star system was to develop the demon race's power. The demon race's power in the Southern Region was actually brought here by him.

Over these years he has been locked in a stalemate with me here, neglecting the demon race's development, but I estimate those demons won't stay obedient; sooner or later they will come here to fight.

He chose to set a trap for me here because the demon race's cultivation resources are abundant here. Beneath this mountain cliff lies buried a demon race's underground palace, containing many demon cultivation resources. I can help you take those resources away, so they won't be left for the demons..."

The monk and Ye Liuyun talked a lot, letting him learn many things he previously didn't know.

"I rarely see Buddhist people here. Where exactly is the Buddhist Sect? You came here to save whom, and did you succeed?" Ye Liuyun asked again about the Buddhist Sect.

He also told the monk about his previous encounters with the Vajra of Angry Eyes and the Withered Wood Monk.

He felt it strange that in various places he rarely sees monks and temples, as if they had all disappeared.

The monk also laughed and told Ye Liuyun: "The Buddha hasn't disappeared; it's just that in the previous war against the foreign tribes and demons, casualties were huge, and now they are resting. Only those with affinity can see them.

Since you have seen me and have had multiple encounters with my Buddhist people, that shows you have affinity with my Buddhist Sect. I am called the Guide Monk precisely because I am seeking those with affinity to my Buddhist Sect.

The person I originally wanted to save was such an affinity-bearing person, but unfortunately his affinity was insufficient, so I still couldn't save him. And now you have come, enough to show you are an affinity-bearing person!"

"Oh? Then what benefits are there to having affinity with the Buddha?" Ye Liuyun asked directly.

"Haha," the monk also laughed: "Of course there are benefits—think back, every time you met Buddhist people, wasn't there a great opportunity?"

"That's true, each time I gained quite a bit!" Ye Liuyun also said affirmatively.

"Come on, I'll first take you to collect the resources here, lest we have long nights and many dreams!" The monk immediately stood up, ready to help Ye Liuun take away the demon race's resources here.

Ye Liuyun certainly wouldn't refuse such a good thing; he immediately followed the monk to the base of the mountain cliff.

Only see the monk not using True Essence, just lightly flicking his sleeve, and a powerful force burst forth, pushing the entire mountain cliff backward.

Then he kept flicking his sleeve, continuously pushing the mountain cliff backward, revealing a vacuum cave below.

"Follow me!" The monk immediately led Ye Liuyun downward; when they reached below the cave, Ye Liuyun was also shocked by the interior scenery.

Inside the underground cave, a demon race's palace actually stood upright. At the top of the palace was inlaid a demon god's elemental pellet, releasing rich demon qi.

"This palace is just an ordinary building, not a treasure, but its material can be used to forge quasi-divine grade weapons. The demon god's elemental pellet on the roof is also a good resource for demon beast cultivation."

He feared Ye Liuyun might not understand what quasi-divine grade weapons are, so he explained further.

"The Cave Heaven Realm is also called the Quasi-Divine Realm; the corresponding weapon grade is quasi-divine weapons." The monk explained to Ye Liuyun.

"Then there is also the Divine Rank? I came from the Divine Realm! But here I'm called the Mortal Realm!" Ye Liuyun immediately asked.

The monk only smiled and didn't answer him, merely telling him: "When you reach the Cave Heaven Realm, you will know how it is. In the eyes of Cave Heaven Realm experts, the Divine Realm you speak of is merely a part of a small world."

Ye Liuyun nodded and didn't pursue further. He also knew some things are beyond his current realm; even if others tell him, he can't understand. Conversely, once his realm reaches that level, he will naturally comprehend.
