Chapter 970 First Grade

He closed his eyes, shutting out the electric light, and observed the changes in his body.

He couldn't help but marvel at the vast difference between the demons and humans.

The body of the Heavenly Demon is far beyond that of humans; its flesh and bones are much stronger.

Its meridians are stronger than those of humans, and its spirit is far more powerful.

But everything has two sides.

Strong meridians, bones, and muscles can withstand impacts and damage.

It is also a disadvantage, and it requires a much stronger force to change it.

The demon race's powerful spiritual strength gives them an extremely high starting point; the Heavenly Demon is equivalent to a Venerable among humans, and the Great Heavenly Demon is also a Venerable.

He is currently at the second rank of Heavenly Demon, but his true strength is not as great as Chu Liezhao's sixth rank.

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he pulled out the stone slab.

He channeled the surging power within his body into the stone slab.

This surging power is a force that inexplicably emerges at the moment of breaking through to a higher realm.

It seemed to originate from within the body, yet also from the outside world; he vaguely speculated that it came from the Demon Abyss.

Since becoming Leng Tieya, he has been pondering a question: What is the Demon Abyss, and where is it located?

It's still not clear.

The Abyss of Demons is everywhere; it is the void, the earth, and everything.

The Abyss of Demons may not be what we see or perceive, but rather in another dimension.

The stone slab reacts to some forces, and among the many forces, he has tried most of them, including the power of the Spirit Abyss and even the power of the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree.

Nothing happened.

He had considered the power of the Demon Abyss, but he had never been able to mobilize it.

Only this time, he felt that the changes in his body were likely due to the power of the Demon Abyss.

The stone slab flashed.

His expression changed slightly.

Of all the tests he had been given, this one had the strongest reaction.

But then nothing changed.

Leng Tieya's mind raced as he continued to capture flashes of inspiration.

Finally, he had another strange idea and adopted the first move of the Lingyuan Cleansing Record.

The power of the Spirit Abyss surged forth instantly.

As soon as the power of the spirit entered his body, he immediately felt his body boiling.

Like boiling oil falling into a drop of water, the demonic energy instantly boiled within the body and began to surge wildly.

He forcefully suppressed it, pouring all the boiling demonic energy and spiritual power into the stone slab.

The stone slab lit up again, shimmering.

Leng Tieya was immediately invigorated.

He was not afraid of damaging the stone slab, but only of the stone slab remaining still and unchanged.

A moment later, he felt a strange energy flowing from the stone slab into his palm, traveling up his hand and into his mind.

He didn't sense any danger, so he let the strange aura flow into his mind.

The next moment, he discovered that he understood the strange script on the stone slab.

He still didn't know what the script was, but he knew its meaning.

By combining words with actions, he discovered a new understanding of the Nine Heavenly Demons.

It cannot be said that the Leng clan ancestor's comprehension of the Nine Heavenly Demons was wrong; there were only some minor differences.

Without written guidance, some key points cannot be grasped simply by physical gestures.

He put the stone slab down and began practicing the Nine Heavenly Demon Releases again.

The demonic energy circulated within the body, changing its course with every movement.

Sometimes slow, sometimes fast; sometimes heavy, sometimes light.

His movements were no different from before, the only difference being the speed and intensity of his movements.

With this change, the demonic energy also underwent a strange transformation.

Surprisingly, some special passages have emerged, with several additional branches compared to the original route.

These few side paths, however, caused subtle changes in the demonic energy.

After these subtle changes have gone through a few cycles, a qualitative change occurs.

His hair floated up slowly, as if an invisible force was blowing from his feet to the top of his head.

It is like floating in the depths of a lake.

He practiced the nine moves again and again, becoming more and more enthusiastic as he practiced, his body surrounded by a swirling aura that formed a whistling wind around him.

……

"Bobo Bobo..."

A series of cracking sounds came from inside his body.

The body begins to contract and expand repeatedly, constantly changing back and forth.

Finally, there was a muffled "bang".

He slowly stopped, his eyes burning, a smile playing on his lips.

"First rank!"

He uttered these two words softly.

The next moment, his figure flashed and disappeared from the Demon-Subduing Divine Palace. Previously, he had to create a portal of light, but now, with the space-breaking magic weapon, he no longer needed a portal and could directly break through the spatial constraints.

The next moment, he appeared in the Leng family's residence in Zhongyun City, in his own courtyard.

Inside the courtyard, Leng Yuqing stood with her hands behind her back in the pavilion.

She wore a black robe that accentuated her snow-white skin, making her appear cold and alluring.

He stood with his hands behind his back in front of the pavilion railing, looking at the flowerbed in the courtyard.

Leng Tieya's sudden appearance startled her awake.

She turned her head and saw Leng Tieya, a look of surprise on her face: "Tieya, you..."

Leng Tieya looked her over and remarked, "Big sister has lost weight."

Leng Yuqing looked visibly haggard.

She looked Leng Tieya over and saw that he was radiant and full of energy, and couldn't help but smile.

Leng Tieya asked, "Does Eldest Sister have any information about Meng Qi's whereabouts?"

Leng Yuqing's smile faded.

Leng Tieya laughed and said, "Now that I've advanced to the first rank, I can deal with Meng Qi."

Leng Yuqing's smile vanished completely, and she frowned slightly: "Tieya, there's no need to rush revenge."

Leng Tieya suddenly struck out with his palm.

Leng Yuqing froze instantly, unable to move, only able to stare wide-eyed.

Leng Tieya took two steps forward, reached out and lifted her chin, his expression flippant and teasing: "How about it?"

"What kind of weird method is this?"

Leng Yuqing's body couldn't move, but her bright eyes and mouth could. She widened her eyes and shouted.

Leng Tieya withdrew his hand and said casually, "I had a fortuitous encounter and awakened my memories of my past life. This is the Great Luo Heavenly Divine Palm!"

"He's really become a first-rank Heavenly Demon? First-rank can awaken memories of past lives?"

"Big sister, I can handle Monkey no problem."

"Let go!" Leng Yuqing glared at him.

With a flick of Leng Tieya's wrist, her restraints were removed, and she regained her freedom.

Ignoring his anger, he looked at Leng Tieya with surprise: "Tieya, who were you in your past life?"

Leng Tieya said, "Big sister, you know the rules."

Live only in this life, and don't dwell on the past.

Past lives can only be remembered, not interfered with.

This is the rule of the demon realm.

Leng Yuqing waved her hand: "Alright, alright, I won't ask anymore. The Great Luo Heavenly Palm... I've heard of it, but it's very far removed from us."

Leng Tieya asked, "Can Meng Qi return from the Great Demon Palace?"

Leng Yuqing shook her head: "He hasn't left the Great Demon Palace yet."

Leng Tieya frowned and pondered.

"He is a highly skilled disciple of the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, and his cultivation method is extraordinary. He should also possess many secret techniques and rare treasures."

Leng Tieya said calmly, "Killing him is as easy as turning my hand. I have already refined the demonic weapon."

The Meng family has not come to their door yet; only Meng Qi has instigated the Lu family to humiliate him.

Clearly, he wanted to take back the Soul-Suppressing Seal.

Magical artifacts are not something that can be obtained casually; not all top families possess them.

If the Meng family were to reclaim the Soul-Suppressing Seal, they might not hand it over to Meng Qi.

The most important reason why Monkey turned against himself was the magic weapon.

The best way is to kill yourself to obtain the magic weapon.

If he were to come directly to his door to demand it, he would not admit it.

Even if the Leng family declines, they still have the Great Heavenly Demon to protect them.

His best opportunity was to first humiliate the Lu family and then make the Leng family abandon him.

During this time, Monchi also had to keep the news that the Soul-Suppressing Seal had fallen into his hands a secret.

He had already figured out these subtleties long ago.

Coincidentally, Monkey wanted to kill him, and he also wanted to kill him.

It all comes down to who has the better strategy.

Just then, a report came from outside: "Miss, news has come from the South Pavilion."

"Let him in," Leng Yuqing said.

"Yes."

A handsome young man strode in, clasped his hands in greeting, and took out a thin black iron tube from his sleeve and presented it to him.

Leng Tieya glanced at the handsome young man.

His appearance was unremarkable among the demons; people like Yu Chengde and Song Zhaozhong were much more eye-catching.

Leng Yuqing opened the iron pipe, took out the roll of thin paper inside, opened it, glanced at it, and then looked at Leng Tieya.

Leng Tieya asked, "Monchi's?"

Leng Yuqing solemnly said, "He is on his way to our Zhongyun City."

Leng Tieya smiled.
