Chapter 97: Some Explore as if Facing Tribulation, Others as if on Vacation

After a brief pause, she continued, “The Ninth Prince’s secret realm was the last to open. He barely awoke before facing the challenge from the four strongest among us… Father must have anticipated this.”
“So, the true ‘Imperial Child’ with potential has already been determined,” Yan Feiyu understood her meaning.
“The so-called competition among the Imperial Children is actually them challenging him, while the Demon Emperor gave the others a chance to challenge.”
“Exactly,” Gu Li said with a bitter smile.
“Probably fearing that kinship would hinder our competition, we siblings were separated and raised apart by Father’s trusted aides soon after birth. We never met and had no idea of each other’s strengths.”
But from the Demon Emperor’s arrangements, some things were already obvious.
“Father’s aides told me that in his later years, he often fell into a state of confusion and madness, muttering ‘No way out, the path is broken,’ which was chilling to hear,” Gu Li drifted into her memories.
“He handed over state affairs to his aides and spent his days in seclusion. When he came out, he would get drunk and seek women to vent.
We were conceived during that period, each of us with different mothers.”
“Your father was… quite passionate,” Yan Feiyu commented after a moment of silence.
A cultivator getting drunk meant they were deliberately indulging.
Normally, even ordinary cultivators would resist the effects of alcohol with their bodies.
Not to mention a Demon Emperor with the power of laws within him.
But since he was a revered senior of all demon kind, Yan Feiyu felt it inappropriate to label the Demon Emperor a tyrant.
She suspected he had suffered some setback, leading to a damaged Dao heart.
Gu Li sighed, “Children like us, he probably had many. But in the end, he selected us nine, nurturing us to inherit his Dao.
He divided his Demon Emperor bloodline into nine parts, each given to us. We were meant to kill each other, absorbing each other’s bloodline to grow stronger.”
Gu Li gave a bitter smile.
“Only by uniting all nine bloodlines can one achieve a complete bloodline. In such a situation, it’s impossible to opt out of the competition.”
Even if she didn’t attack others, other heirs desiring to grow stronger would actively seek to kill her.
Therefore, Gu Li chose to seek external support.
Her intentions were clear.
The Sky Demon Sect was an ancient orthodox power of the demon race, and it shared the same roots with the ancient Demon Emperor.
Yan Feiyu would help Gu Li seize the Demon Emperor’s inheritance, and in return, Gu Li would make her sect subordinate to the Sky Demon Sect, recognizing Yan Feiyu as the leader.
Wherever the leader pointed, Gu Li would strike; whoever the leader commanded, Gu Li would confront.
Actually, Gu Li wanted to be the leader’s wife, but unfortunately, the leader already had someone she liked and didn’t give Gu Li a chance.
For Yan Feiyu, this deal was very profitable.
A Demon Emperor’s celestial weapon was powerful enough to establish a sect and a demon nation.
But in front of the top power like the Sky Demon Sect, it still wasn’t enough.
So there was no need to worry about Gu Li breaking the agreement.
“Sister Yan, we must be cautious in this matter,” Gu Li said with a serious expression.
“The method of seeking external help that I thought of, the others could have thought of too, and my father would not have overlooked this possibility.
But when he set up the secret realm, he didn’t create formations to prevent outsiders from entering, which clearly indicates he had his own considerations. ”
“I understand, ” Yan Feiyu nodded.
Gu Li brought out a beast skin and spread it out. It was a map of the secret realm.
Different from the one Lu Xuan hand-drew after aerial surveyance, Gu Li’s beast skin map had its own mysteries.
“We are currently in the ‘Metal Area’ of the Five Elements division of the secret realm,” Gu Li pointed out.
“This area is vast, filled with various broken magical treasures accumulated by my father over years of conquests and victories.”
Yan Feiyu looked across the enormous ruins, where various magical weapons were scattered haphazardly.
Some looked ordinary, others bizarre, some the size of regular weapons, and some as large as small mountains.
Even though their spirituality had dissipated, some still had residual murderous aura.
Gu Li looked toward the distant celestial palaces:
“In each of the Five Elements areas, there is a special token. Holding the token grants access to the corresponding palaces.”
“How shall we find it?” Yan Feiyu asked.
Just as she finished speaking, a pile of magical weapons nearby suddenly exploded, and a strange creature emerged from it.
It resembled a tiger, with stout limbs and a translucent body shimmering with silver light.
Although its aura wasn’t strong, it immediately attacked them upon sight. Gu Li stepped forward, emitting a light from her hand that dispersed the creature’s body.
“In this secret realm, the bones of the Four Symbols beasts are buried. In the ‘Metal Area,’ the force of Geng Metal from the stacked weapons is absorbed by the formations, and under the influence of the bones, the Dao qi condenses, forming these White Tiger Spirit Killers,” Gu Li explained.
“Sister Yan, please be prepared. In such a place, there is likely more than one Spirit Killer.”
Yan Feiyu nodded, her expression turning serious.
The White Tiger Spirit Killer they just encountered was not very strong, roughly equivalent to a Qi Refining Stage cultivator.
But since this was the Demon Emperor’s trial ground for his inheritance, reaching the central celestial palaces wouldn’t be easy.
At that moment.
In the Water Area of the Demon Emperor’s secret realm. “You have ill intentions, plotting against others, huh?”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
