Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 807 Understanding the Inheritance, Demon is Also the Way (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"It seems that Sect Leader Li already had a plan."

After a long while, a dark light flickered in the eyes of the young man from the Heavenly Demon Sect. He looked at Li Yunjing, then at Xie Wuyi, and suddenly laughed, "However, even if this palace gate can really be opened, the things inside... are not something that just anyone can take, are they?"

He was implying something!
With so many Nascent Soul level experts or top-tier Nascent Soul cultivators present, even if Li Yunjing found a way to break the restriction, he couldn't possibly monopolize the opportunity.

"nature."

"'The Tower of Ten Thousand Demons' is an ancient relic. Whether it brings opportunities or dangers, it all depends on one's own abilities."

Li Yunjing nodded, his tone calm: "But there is one thing! Anyone who tries to tamper with the opening of the palace gates or deliberately triggers the restrictions to injure people will be an enemy of everyone present."

His words seemed fair, but in reality, they established a "rule" in secret: he would hold the key to breaking the ban, and others would not be allowed to make any underhanded moves.

After all, only he can trigger that spatial node again; if anyone else tries to make a move, they will only be attacked by the restriction.

"Sect Leader Li is right."

After a moment of contemplation, Huangze Zhenjun nodded first: "The most urgent task is to open the palace gates. As for the opportunities within the tower, we can deal with them later."

Although he was ambitious, he also knew that it was not the right time to make an enemy of Li Yunjing!

After all, Li Yunjing held the key to breaking the restriction.

The old man in the green robe and the old monk nodded in agreement.

They didn't want to possess it all; they only wanted to enter the palace to investigate and prevent the ancient demonic intent from being leaked. Li Yunjing's suggestion suited their needs perfectly.

The other hidden experts exchanged glances and could only acquiesce.

Although they were strong, none of them could break the restrictions like Li Yunjing, and could only "hitch a ride".

The atmosphere instantly shifted from a standoff to a temporary alliance.

And the mastermind behind all of this is none other than the seemingly most low-profile Li Yunjing.

Xie Wuyi stood behind, watching the scene unfold before him, his heart growing colder and colder.

He finally realized that he seemed to have no chance of escaping from the clutches of Li Yunjing, this villain, for the rest of his life.

Li Yunjing seemed to sense his thoughts, glanced at him indifferently, and transmitted his voice: "Live well, there will be times when I need you."

Xie Wuyi trembled and immediately lowered his head, not daring to make the slightest move.

Just then, the dilapidated palace suddenly trembled again!

This time, the tremor did not come from the palace gates, but from deep within the palace!

A demonic aura, more terrifying than ever before, slowly awakened like a colossal beast that had slumbered for billions of years, pressing down on the people on the platform through the cracks in the palace gates!

"This is……"

The old monk's expression changed drastically, and the Buddhist light behind his head surged instantly. "It's even stronger than the demonic intent beneath the pagoda! It's a true ancient demonic spirit?!"

"No... this isn't a demon spirit, it's a kind of 'will'!"

Emperor Ze Zhenjun's body surged with dragon energy, and the golden dragon phantom reappeared, desperately resisting the demonic intent: "A living will belonging to the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons itself!"

The light of creation surged in Li Yunjing's eyes. He could clearly feel that the will contained not only destruction and slaughter, but also a deep sense of "loneliness" and "waiting"!
It's as if they're waiting for a certain "person" or a certain "opportunity".

"It seems we arrived neither too early nor too late."

Li Yunjing spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of imperceptible solemnity, "This Tower of Ten Thousand Demons is indeed 'waiting' for something. And we may be the 'opportunity' it has been waiting for! Or rather, the 'sacrifice' it has chosen."

The atmosphere on the platform plummeted to freezing point once again.

Everyone understood that the real danger was not the restrictions of the palace gates, nor the resentment of the Demon Abyss, but the living, unknown ancient demon tower itself.

"Amitabha!"

The old monk clasped his hands together, and his body shone with a great Buddhist light, transforming into a golden barrier in front of everyone. "This demonic thought is extremely vicious. Everyone must guard their minds!"

The demonic thoughts surged in like a tidal wave, carrying ancient savagery and madness, assaulting everyone's consciousness.

The cultivator with weaker cultivation immediately screamed in agony, bleeding from all seven orifices and collapsing to the ground.

"Formation!"

With a stern shout, the dragon energy transformed into nine golden dragons that spiraled upwards, intertwining with the Buddhist light to form a solid defense.

"This is not merely demonic thought, but the very will of the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons!"

A glint of divine insight flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes, instantly piercing through the demonic intent: "It's testing us!"

He raised his hand and pointed, a beam of clear light shooting towards the palace gate's restrictions: "Since you want to test it, then let it see clearly!"

As the light entered the barrier, the runes on the palace gate suddenly lit up, and the originally violent demonic thoughts suddenly stopped, as if attracted by something and gathered towards the palace gate.

"Sect Leader Li! What have you done?"

The old man in the green robe was filled with doubt and surprise.

"Give it an outlet."

Li Yunjing's expression remained unchanged. "Since the 'Tower of Ten Thousand Demons' is waiting for an opportunity, then let's seize that opportunity!"

The palace gates groaned under the onslaught of demonic thoughts, but the ancient runes grew brighter and brighter, eventually transforming into a gate of light that slowly opened.

"Squeak..."

Behind the door lay a deep darkness, from which surged demonic energy even more chilling than the Abyss of Demons, but this time, the demonic energy carried a strange "order".

"Sure enough."

A realization flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes: "'The Tower of Ten Thousand Demons' is not rejecting us, but rather selecting those who can withstand its will."

"Those who want an opportunity, follow along."

He was the first to step inside: "Those who are afraid of death, it's not too late to turn back now."

The crowd looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, Huangze Zhenjun was the first to follow, followed by the old monk and the old man in the green robe.

Other experts hesitated for a moment before entering one after another.

Behind the door was a magnificent hall with countless stars hanging from its dome and the floor paved with black jade. Twelve statues of demon gods stood around it, each exuding a terrifying aura.

In the center of the main hall stands an altar, upon which floats a constantly changing black crystal, the very source of all demonic energy.

"The core of the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons".

Li Yunjing said softly, "It seems we've found the right place."

Just then, the twelve demon god statues suddenly opened their eyes simultaneously!

"Intruder...accept the trial..."

An ancient voice echoed in the hall, and twelve beams of demonic light shot toward the crowd, each containing a different demonic law!
"careful!"

Emperor Ze Zhenjun unleashed his dragon aura, blocking a destructive demonic light.

"When the demonic realm appears, if you can recognize it, cleanse your mind of defilements, and avoid falling into heretical views..."

An old monk chanted Buddhist scriptures, and the light of Buddha transformed into lotus flowers to protect his entire body.

"All heretics, I will slay with a single sword!"

The old man in the green robe pointed his sword, and a blue sword aura slashed towards a treacherous demonic light.

Li Yunjing stood still, the light of creation flowing in front of him, directly devouring and decomposing the incoming demonic light!
"This is not an attack, but a legacy!"

He suddenly realized, "'The Tower of Ten Thousand Demons' is selecting a suitable successor!"

He looked at the black crystal: "What do you want?"

The crystal trembled slightly, and a thought entered everyone's consciousness: "Prove... your worth..."

The twelve demon god statues moved simultaneously, each unleashing a supreme demonic power to attack the crowd!

This time it's no longer a test, but a real killing move!
Each move contains the complete laws of demonic cultivation, and its power is comparable to the full-force attack of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator!
"Join forces!"

Emperor Ze Zhenjun roared, "To resist alone is certain death!"

Everyone immediately understood and used their special skills to fight back together.

Buddhist light, dragon energy, sword energy, demonic power... all kinds of forces collided and surged in the main hall.

Li Yunjing did not participate in the defense; his gaze remained fixed on the black crystal.

The light of creation raced through his eyes, and he finally saw through a sliver of the truth.

"I see... The 'Tower of Ten Thousand Demons' doesn't need powerful cultivators, but rather people who can balance the laws of demonic cultivation..."

He suddenly leaped into the air and rushed straight towards the altar!
"Sect Leader Li!"

Everyone exclaimed.

"Boom!"

The twelve demon god statues turned towards Li Yunjing at the same time, and the twenty-four demonic lights merged into one, blasting towards him with a world-destroying force!

At this critical moment, twelve illusory figures appeared around Li Yunjing, each displaying a completely different demonic art, which corresponded perfectly to the techniques of the twelve demon god statues!
"The demonic path is unified; all laws share the same origin!"

The twelve illusory figures merged into one, and Li Yunjing struck out with his palm, actually separating the destructive demonic light from it. His figure passed through the pillar of light unharmed and landed on the altar!

His hand landed on the black crystal.

The entire hall suddenly fell silent.

The twelve demon statues stopped moving and slowly retreated to their original positions.

The surging demonic energy became docile, receding like the tide.

"The successor...has been chosen..."

The ancient voice rang out again, and the black crystal transformed into a stream of light that entered Li Yunjing's brow.

Everyone stared in disbelief at this scene, no one expected that Li Yunjing would be the one to receive the inheritance!

Huangze Zhenjun's expression shifted, and finally he sighed, "Sect Leader Li is indeed a man of great talent." The old monk clasped his hands together and said, "Congratulations to Sect Leader Li on obtaining this opportunity."

Li Yunjing slowly opened his eyes, his eyes swirling with demonic light, and his aura became unfathomable.

He felt the countless demonic inheritances that had appeared in his mind and gently exhaled.

"All things return to their origin; even demons are part of the Way!"

Li Yunjing stood on the altar, his aura as deep and unfathomable as the sea.

After the black crystal entered his brow, he not only obtained the complete "Ten Thousand Demons Scripture," but also sensed the core secret of the "Ten Thousand Demons Tower"!

This tower is not merely a legacy of demonic cultivation, but a primordial spiritual treasure that suppresses the ancient demonic abyss!
"Everyone!"

Li Yunjing's gaze swept over the crowd. "This tower is of great importance and cannot be possessed by any individual due to chance."

He raised his hand and waved it, and the twelve demon god statues suddenly emitted light at the same time, intertwining to form a huge star map in the center of the hall.

The star map revealed countless flowing magical patterns, which were clearly the core restrictions controlling the entire "Tower of Ten Thousand Demons"!

"This is."

Huangze Zhenjun's pupils contracted. "The central control point that controls the entire secret realm?"

"good."

Li Yunjing nodded. "'The Tower of Ten Thousand Demons' has nine levels in total, and we are currently on the third level. The six levels above each suppress six ancient demonic sources, and the bottom level seals the entrance to the Demon Abyss."

Before he finished speaking, the entire hall suddenly began to shake violently!

"not good!"

The old monk suddenly exclaimed, "The seal at the bottom of the pagoda has loosened!"

Suddenly, a blood-red light emanated from the lowest level of the star map, and an even more terrifying demonic energy was frantically attacking the seal!

"The transmission just now triggered the seal!"

The old man in the green robe had a grave expression. "The seal must be reinforced immediately, otherwise, if the Demon Abyss opens, the entire cultivation world will face calamity!"

Li Yunjing's eyes gleamed with the light of creation as he quickly deduced a solution: "To reinforce the seal, at least six Nascent Soul True Monarchs need to act simultaneously, each guarding one of the six layers of demonic source."

He looked at the crowd and said, "This matter concerns the lives of all people, so I ask you all to lend me a hand!"

Emperor Ze Zhenjun was the first to speak: "That is how it should be!"

"Amitabha!"

The old monk clasped his hands together and said, "This humble monk has no choice but to do so."

The old man in the green robe nodded: "Count me in."

The other hidden Nascent Soul cultivators also agreed.

"it is good!"

Li Yunjing raised his hand and cast several spells, "I will open the passage, please take your positions!"

The star map suddenly began to rotate, and six beams of light shot out in different directions, revealing six passages leading to each level.

Just as everyone was about to enter the passage, the young man from the "Heavenly Demon Sect" suddenly sneered: "Sect Leader Li, what a cunning scheme! You want us to suppress the Demon Source so you can monopolize control of this 'Ten Thousand Demon Tower'?"

Li Yunjing glanced at him indifferently: "If you don't trust me, you don't have to go."

"You can monitor the entire process through the star map."

He raised his hand and pointed, and suddenly the various layers of the star map appeared: "If there is any unusual activity, you can exit at any time."

The young man was about to say something when he was interrupted by Huangze Zhenjun: "Enough! This is not the time for infighting!"

Without further hesitation, everyone stepped into the passage.

Li Yunjing sat cross-legged on the altar, his hands forming a mudra, and began to circulate the control technique he had just acquired.

As he cast his spell, the restrictions on the entire "Tower of Ten Thousand Demons" were activated one by one, and a vast power began to converge.

"wrong!"

Suddenly, he frowned: "This seal didn't loosen naturally; someone is sabotaging it from the outside!"

Almost simultaneously, the star map showed several dark figures appearing at the bottom layer, frantically attacking the seal!
"It's actually an extraterrestrial demon?"

When Li Yunjing saw those demonic creatures, he was shocked. "They want to force open the Demon Abyss!"

"Everyone, speed things up!"

He immediately sent a message to all levels: "An extraterrestrial demon is breaking the seal!"

"not good!"

Upon hearing this, the Nascent Soul cultivators guarding each level immediately went all out, injecting six powerful forces into the seal and temporarily stabilizing the situation.

But the number of shadowy figures at the bottom is increasing, clearly indicating that they came prepared.

A cold glint flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes, and the speed at which he formed hand seals suddenly increased.

The star map on the altar spun rapidly, revealing a detailed view of the bottom seal.

Dozens of bizarrely shaped extraterrestrial demons were frantically attacking the seal. They were surrounded by chaotic energy that did not belong to this world, and the space around them was distorted and collapsed.

"Attention, everyone!"

Li Yunjing's voice echoed across all levels through the star map, "Use the 'Six Harmonies Demon Sealing Array' to guard the positions and inject your magic power into the array's core!"

Emperor Ze Zhenjun was the first to respond, his dragon energy transforming into nine golden locks that pierced the array's core; the old monk chanted Buddhist mantras, his Buddhist light condensing into a swastika symbol; the old man in the green robe pointed his sword at the heavens, his azure sword energy splitting into countless forms...

The six Nascent Soul cultivators exerted their full power, and six powerful forces converged into the bottom seal through the array's cores.

The seal suddenly shone brightly, instantly pulverizing the few extraterrestrial demons at the forefront!

However, more and more demons followed one after another, seemingly completely unaware of the meaning of fear.

"Boom!"

A colossal demon suddenly opened its massive maw and spewed out chaotic breath, causing the sealing light barrier to fluctuate violently!

"not good!"

Li Yunjing's expression changed, "This Heavenly Demon can corrode the seal's origin!"

He immediately changed his incantation, and twelve ancient demonic runes appeared on the altar: "Use demons to subdue demons, use their strength against them!"

It is the secret technique from the "Ten Thousand Demons Scripture" that I just obtained!
The twelve demonic runes merged into the star map, actually transforming and absorbing some of the Heavenly Demon's power, which was then fed back into the seal!

"Wonderful!"

Emperor Ze Zhenjun exclaimed in admiration, "Sect Leader Li, as the leader of the Xuanmen Sect, has actually managed to wield demonic arts to such a high level!"

But at that moment, another unexpected event occurred!

The star map showed that a void rift suddenly opened at the bottom layer, and a giant claw covered with black scales reached out from it, causing the newly stabilized seal to shake violently again with just one strike!

"A Heavenly Demon General at the Returning to the Void Realm!"

Li Yunjing's pupils contracted. "Everyone, be careful! A truly formidable enemy has arrived!"

The owner of the giant claw slowly squeezed out from the crack...

This is a terrifying demon with three heads and six arms. Each head has a different hideous face, and each of the six arms holds a strange demonic weapon!
"A lowly insect... dares to block the path of the Heavenly Demon?"

The head in the middle emitted a piercing mental fluctuation, causing a stinging sensation to the consciousness of everyone watching the battle through the stars.

The demon general swung all six arms, and the six demonic weapons simultaneously bombarded the seal!
"Boom!"

The entire "Tower of Ten Thousand Demons" trembled!

"puff!"

The Nascent Soul cultivator guarding the lowest level immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, clearly suffering internal injuries.

"This can't go on like this!"

Li Yunjing made a quick decision, "Please lend me your strength!"

He pressed his hands against the star map, and the power of the six Nascent Soul cultivators converged on him through the great formation.

The immense energy nearly burst his meridians, but the Light of Creation circulated rapidly, forcefully organizing and fusing these forces!

"With my blood, I summon the spirit of the tower!"

Li Yunjing bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of his vital essence.

The altar suddenly shone brightly, and the illusory tower spirit reappeared.

But unlike last time, this time the tower spirit's figure was much more solid, and one could vaguely make out that he was an old man wearing a demon robe.

"The Heavenly Demons have invaded... They've finally come..."

The tower spirit sighed, raised its hand, and unleashed a stream of true demonic energy that entered Li Yunjing's brow. "Young man, I'll borrow your body for a moment!"

Li Yunjing felt a vast will descend upon him, and his body moved involuntarily.

His hands quickly formed countless profound hand seals, each one resonating throughout the entire "Ten Thousand Demon Tower"!

"Suppress the Abyss!"

With a loud shout, all nine floors of the "Ten Thousand Demons Tower" lit up simultaneously!
Countless ancient runes emerged from the tower, converging into a pillar of light that stretched across the heavens and earth, directly blasting towards the demon general!
"Do not……"

The demon general emitted a terrified mental fluctuation, trying to escape back into the rift, but it was too late!
After the pillar of light passed, the Heavenly Demon General, along with thousands of ordinary Heavenly Demons, were all reduced to ashes...

The void rift also began to slowly close.
