Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 156 Yun Mengze

For human practitioners, the deepest part of Yunmengze is a forbidden area for humans, where many monsters gather, including many top monsters.

This time, the demon kings of Yunmengze left Yunmengze, allowing the world to see the powerful strength of Yunmengze.

But even in this context, Qu Qingfeng actually wanted to enter Yunmengze, which seemed to be a decision from which he would never return.

However, Qu Qingfeng still decided to go as long as Aunt Mei nodded.

At the same time when Qu Qingfeng made the decision, Li Fan had already joined the demon kings, flying above Yunmengze. Wherever they passed, the demons below Yunmengze prostrated themselves on the ground. Even the great demons of the fifth realm knelt and prostrated themselves, not daring to move.

Compared to humans, demons are full of wildness, and therefore we are more in awe of powerful demons.

The wind blew his white clothes. Bai Long turned around and looked at Li Fan. He admired Mr. Qu. He did not expect that this human boy could achieve such a level. He was really impressed.

"Lishan sword cultivator?" Bai Long asked.

"Do you know Lishan?" Li Fan asked back.

"Are there any demons in the world of Dali who don't know how to leave the mountain?" Bai Long seemed to hear something funny, which made Li Fan feel that his question was a bit stupid.

It has been a thousand years since I left the mountain to slay demons. It might be okay if the small demon didn’t know about it, but how could the big demon not know about Li Shan?
He thought Yunmengze was independent of this place, but it seems that Yunmengze is actually very concerned about the outside world and can even guess that he is from Lishan.

"Can you walk in the human world?" Li Fan asked curiously.

"You'll understand when you get there." Bai Long responded with a smile.

Li Fan didn't quite understand, and seeing that Bai Long didn't say anything, he didn't ask any more questions.

Moving forward along the way, the demon kings moved at an extremely fast speed, crossing the space.

The Yunmeng Lake is extremely vast. Even at the speed of a sixth-level demon king, it still took a long time to travel there.

Continuing forward, there was fog all over the sky ahead, blocking the vision. It was like a gathering of demonic energy, and even spiritual consciousness had difficulty entering.

A group of demons passed through the fog and entered it directly. The number of demons inside gradually decreased, but Li Fan could clearly sense that the demonic energy was getting stronger and stronger.

A mysterious aura lingers in this world, and a demonic aura locks the sky.

As we continued to go deeper, we saw towering vegetation below and the fog gradually turned into blood color, which was extremely weird.

"Is this the deepest part of Yunmengze?" Li Fan thought to himself.

As he walked forward, he saw a blood-red ancient tree. The branches and leaves of the tree blocked out the sun, and they seemed to reach the sky like countless tentacles. It seemed as if there were pairs of eyes on the leaves of the ancient tree. Li Fan felt extremely uncomfortable.

What a strong tree demon.

And there was more than one tree; as they walked forward, they could see them everywhere.

Human practitioners with cultivation levels below the seventh realm will probably die if they come here. No wonder the depths of Yunmengze are known as a forbidden area for humans.

Moreover, the bloody tree demon here is just one of the dangers.

The fog in front turned green, and Bai Long reminded: "Hold your breath."

Li Fan understood that this might be poisonous fog. Even the fog that permeated the air was not something that practitioners of a lower level could breathe.

The vision became more blurred after entering the poisonous fog, and I didn’t know what kind of demon had released it.

Li Fan's spiritual consciousness was affected and could not spread out.

"open."

Bai Long shouted coldly, and immediately a path was opened up in front of them. All the ancient trees and miasma were moved out of the way, and Bai Long and the others continued to move forward.

Li Fan found himself above a swamp. In this area, he could occasionally see some monsters, many of which were above the fifth realm.

"You don't need to remember the route. Without a demon to lead the way, you human cultivators will not be able to pass through this area unless you have supernatural powers." Bai Long said confidently: "Of course, you can't get out either."

Li Fan didn't care that his thoughts were seen through. What Bai Long said made sense. Besides the endless dangers here, it was also easy to get lost. Could the Yunmengze monster's lair be even deeper in the lake?

What kind of dangers are there?

It seems that even if he escapes, it will be difficult for him to get out...

Li Fan ignored Bai Long and continued to observe.

After walking for a long time and passing through various dangerous places, the view in front of us suddenly became clear.

The lush greenery ahead and the flourishing trees exude a rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

They were above the forest, and the sky above their heads was clear, which made Li Fan couldn't help but take a deep breath.

But then he showed a strange look.

what happened?

Shouldn’t the lairs of big monsters like the white dragon be in those dangerous places?
But they came out at this moment, and there was a different world here.

"Are you surprised?" Bai Long said to Li Fan.

"Some." Li Fan nodded.

"What do you think the deepest part of Yunmengze is like?" Bai Long asked with a smile.

"Just like the previous journey." Li Fan replied.

"You humans like to live in elegant and luxurious environments, but you think that top demons would live in such a harsh environment?" Bai Long showed an interesting smile: "But it's good this way. Humans have many advantages, but the problem of self-righteousness is also deeply rooted."

"Today, you will open your eyes."

After hearing Bai Long's words, Li Fan remained silent, walked forward, and finally flew over the forest area.

The front suddenly opened up and a mountain ridge appeared. He looked down and saw a series of houses and villages. Li Fan was stunned, thinking that he had arrived at a place where humans lived, but when he looked carefully, those active below... were not humans, but demons.

But these demons seem to live together according to human customs.

"Surprised?" Bai Long stood with his hands behind his back, looking ahead, and said confidently: "You humans think you are extraordinary and think you are the most intelligent creatures. Of course, humans do have unique advantages. We have wisdom and understanding far beyond that of demons, and we rely on the inheritance of our ancestors to reproduce and thrive. However, we are also arrogant and conceited."

"Compared to humans, demons live in a more barbaric and bloody way. Because of this, the wisdom of demons cannot be passed down, but is only passed down among individual tribes. This limits the growth of the entire demon world, so we need to learn from humans."

"Otherwise, why do you think I showed mercy to Mr. Qu? It's because I admire cultivators like humans. They pass on the essence of human wisdom, which is what we demons lack."

“But we will get better.”

When Bai Long thought of the Demon Saint, his eyes were filled with reverence.

All of this was made possible under the leadership of the Demon Saint. During this process, they encountered too many difficulties and opponents.

Even today, the wildness of the demons is still difficult to tame. Fortunately, the Demon Saint is here and can suppress them, and no one dares to question them.

When Li Fan heard Bai Long's words, he felt a chill.

If the monsters in Yunmengze were as he had imagined before, although dangerous, they were still controllable. As long as powerful human practitioners arrived, they would be able to suppress the monsters that left Yunmengze.

But the Yunmengze mentioned by Bailong made him feel more dangerous.

The demon world is constantly evolving and growing.

But humans...are suspicious of each other and killing each other.

As he continued to move forward, Li Fan gradually saw more demons, and even a demon city appeared. Many of their big demons transformed into humans, and some were half-human and half-demon. In the demon city, demons in their original form were even very rare...

The demons are learning to imitate the human survival mode, and in the process, they are gradually losing their wildness.

One can't sense any demonic wildness from the white dragon, and he even has a somewhat elegant temperament.

"arrive."

Bailong whispered, and a magnificent demon city appeared in front of them.

Many buildings in the city are built of huge stones, imitating the human world, but the style is different, and still exudes a wild atmosphere.

"Master Bailong."

When entering the city, many people saw the white dragon in the sky, and they showed awe and even bowed to it.

"Is that young man a human?"

Many demons noticed Li Fan. Why did Lord Bailong bring a human here?
Li Fan looked at the demons below. There were more transformed demons here, and the more they went forward, the more so. If it weren't for the powerful demonic aura, the world would be no different from the human world.

Moreover, as they moved forward, the buildings here became more and more exquisite and beautiful. Li Fan even saw many human houses and attics.

He looked ahead, and in the distance, Li Fan saw a palace towering into the clouds, majestic and exuding an ancient aura of oppression.

From that direction, Li Fan sensed an inexplicable pressure, and he seemed to realize that someone was looking at him.

"That's the Demon Saint Palace, where Lord Demon Saint lives." Bai Long reminded.

"What realm is your Demon Saint at?" Li Fan asked curiously.

Humans’ classification of demons is relatively simple, and they are distinguished directly by numbers that correspond to the level of human spiritual practice.

Bailong is in the early stage of the seventh realm, corresponding to the initial stage of all things.

So what about the Demon Saint that Bailong mentioned?

At least when White Dragon is supreme.

So, it is the peak of the seventh realm.

Or, the Eight Realms?

If it is the eighth realm, it would be a bit scary...

There are currently no cultivators at the eighth level in Lishan.

There shouldn’t be any in Yunmengze.

Perhaps the Demon Saint does not represent a realm, but is a respectful title, just like the human emperor.

Bai Long ignored him.

Bai Long brought Li Fan to a house not far from the foot of the palace. There were female demons inside. When they saw Bai Long arrive, they bowed and saluted: "Master Bai Long."

"Give him a bath and change his clothes, and come with me to meet the Demon Saint later." Bai Long said to the demon girl, and then took the demon kings to the palace to report.

The two banshees looked at Li Fan. They were both in human form with a pair of fox eyes. They looked at Li Fan with charming eyes that were actually full of allure.

The art of enchantment.

"Human?" A banshee giggled. It was rare to see humans here.

"Fox demon?" A golden light flashed in Li Fan's eyes.

"Lord Bailong asked us to help you bathe and change clothes. Please go ahead." The banshee said with a smile.

"Is the Demon Saint so particular?" Li Fan looked strange.

This demon saint is so arrogant. Why does he have to bathe and change clothes like a human would when meeting a saint?
