Wang Zheng wasn't embarrassed at all that his true intentions had been seen through.

This explanation could also explain why these demon lords didn't care about the behavior of their subordinates.

After another moment of silence, Young Master Wang took a deep breath and said with some emotion:

"If I'm not mistaken, you're probably scheming against these demon lords behind the scenes to improve your own strength. To be frank, you've already reached this level, is it really worth pursuing an even higher level?"

Seemingly surprised that Wang Zheng would ask such a question, the Demon Lord paused for a moment before finally smiling and saying:

"What you're saying, little brother, is irresponsible. No one would complain about their own strength. No matter how strong I am, I still have 12 opponents who are about the same level as me."

As you know, the outside world is not a monolithic entity; deceit, intrigue, and backstabbing are commonplace.

If I don't think about improving myself, the end result will be that I will be devoured by others. If that's the case, why can't I devour others first?

Moreover, there can only be one true Heavenly Demon King. Someone must emerge victorious in the battle and ultimately unify the Heavenly Demon race. Why can't that person be me?

Faced with the Demon Lord's ambition and domineering aura, Wang Zheng was speechless for a moment. The status she mentioned also greatly shocked the young master Wang.

The Demon Lord seemed quite pleased with Young Master Wang's surprise, and then scrutinized him closely.

"Little brother, with your strength, you're at most on par with me. Although I don't know how you cultivate, do you dare to say that you're truly without desires?"

Have you ever considered that if you alone could suppress all of us, how could Earth have fallen into crisis?

Faced with the Demon Lord's questioning, Wang Zheng shook his head with a wry smile, offering no further explanation. However, now that he had a better understanding of the situation beyond this realm, he continued to ask:

"So you must have witnessed the fall of other demon lords?"

"In the last thousand years, there haven't been any hotheads. They've started to unite against external forces, but it's all just a facade. I reckon they all want to wait until they have overwhelming strength before taking action. But in the past, the fighting was fierce, and quite a few demon lords have fallen."

At this point, the Demon Lord suddenly turned around and smiled.

“Little brother, there’s no need to test the waters. If there were no chance of success, I wouldn’t have made this suggestion. Besides, I don’t need you to be the main one.”

After saying this, the Lord of Desire's gaze became hazy, as if recalling some past events, and his appearance was very moving.

After a long silence, she came to her senses and saw that Wang Zheng had successfully refined another world core.

The Demon Lord didn't even glance at him, then spoke frankly to Wang Zheng:

"You've just entered this field, so naturally you still value the things around you quite a bit. But once you live for a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand years, you'll realize that nothing else matters as much as yourself."

"Fellow clansmen, relatives, friends, even one's own planet are not as important as improving one's own strength. Now that one has broken through to the Divine Realm, one must forge ahead and solidify the corresponding rank; otherwise, the final outcome will be nothing but a mirage, achieving nothing..."

She spoke sincerely, and Young Master Wang listened attentively, nodding in agreement from time to time.

However, he was also worried about exposing his ignorance, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions in order not to show his ignorance.

As for those damn divine realms and ranks, he knows nothing about them!

He, Young Master Wang, is nothing more than a cheat who took shortcuts; he has no idea about these cultivation matters.

However, since the topic had come up, Wang Zheng suddenly remembered what the ferocious beast had told him before: although there are countless parallel worlds in the world, there is only one being like them.

Putting aside their actual strength, perhaps this uniqueness is related to their so-called status?

If he couldn't figure it out, he simply stopped thinking about it. He would find the beast's clone next time and ask it clearly. However, there was one thing that Wang Zheng firmly believed.

That is, no matter how strong one's abilities are, or how flexible one's bottom line is, there is always something most important to uphold in one's heart.

Perhaps it was youthful arrogance, perhaps it was pride, or perhaps it was simply not the right time, but these things that the Lord of Desires discarded were things he would never abandon.

Yeah! At least not now...

...

Time passed second by second. As each of the world cores representing the origin of the cave was refined and completely integrated into the divine consciousness space, Young Master Wang felt his spiritual power gradually increasing with each action.

Moreover, as more and more world cores hovered in his sea of ​​consciousness, his understanding of the Dao of Space became increasingly profound.

Young Master Wang's technique became more and more skillful, and the time required for refining was getting shorter and shorter, while the number of cave cores in front of him was also decreasing.

Finally, just when the Lord of Desire was getting impatient, Young Master Wang leisurely refined the last primordial object, which had transformed into a miniature whisk.

Immediately afterwards, a pure spatial law surged from his body, transforming into a massive wave of energy that spread outwards.

"Buzz"

Young Master Wang suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes. The next second, two dazzling golden beams shot out from his eyes, piercing the sky and rivaling the stars, causing the surrounding void to tremble slightly!

At this moment, even the Demon Lord of Desire, who was silently watching from afar, was drawn to this sudden celestial phenomenon.

Even though he had already thought highly of the human boy, he was still amazed by Wang Zheng's skills.

Then, this woman, whose every gesture exuded allure, chuckled softly:

"Now I understand why you've made such rapid progress in your strength in such a short time. Your talent and ability are truly remarkable."

"How alas, the world is so unfair! Tell me, there are companions who attained enlightenment earlier than me, eyeing me covetously, and geniuses like you are relentlessly pursuing me from behind. How dare I stop my cultivation journey..."

Young Master Wang didn't believe a word of the Demon Lord's feigned weakness and concealment of his abilities, nor did he believe that the Demon Lord had previously said that they were only evenly matched.

"The Demon Lord is too modest. With your strength and cunning, I don't believe you would be at the bottom among all the Demon Lords. These ten grotto-heavens are the best proof!"

Alright, enough with the unnecessary chit-chat. Who should we start with this time?

Seeing that Wang Zheng finally stopped delaying and stood up, the Demon Lord of Desire was overjoyed.

"In that case, let's start with his rage. This guy isn't weak, but he's stupid, short-tempered, and easily angered. Besides, you two have a history of feuds, so don't worry about him not falling for it!"
