Generally, a level nine demon beast is equivalent to a cultivator in the Heavenly Martial Realm.
A great demon is stronger than a cultivator in the Heavenly Martial Realm, let alone a demon king.
Situ Jing tensed up immediately. She was all alone in the hall. If Ye Sang really made a move, she would have nowhere to run.
So, she subconsciously looked at Lu Chen, only to find that Lu Chen looked calm and seemed to have no worries. So, Situ Jing subconsciously moved closer to Lu Chen.
In her mind, Lu Chen was not so dangerous.
However, this demon king Ye Sang poses a greater threat to me.
If Ye Sang really wants to make a move, then I can only join forces with Lu Chen, and perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope.
"Elder Shi, why hasn't he come out yet? Could it be that he failed in cultivating these three techniques?" Situ Jing was anxious. She glanced at Lu Chen and secretly transmitted her voice, "This demon king is very strong. Are you confident?"
Lu Chen glanced at her, smiled, and said, "What? Are you scared?"
Situ Jing was worried, but Lu Chen didn't care at all.
Ye Sang is indeed very strong. Even if he tried his best, he might not be able to win. But Lu Chen knew that Ye Sang had no chance at all here.
The Heavenly Demon Palace, this forbidden inheritance ground, is for selecting successors. Right now, it's clear that Lu Chen and Situ Jing have both passed the test for the time being, as has Ye Sang.
However, Ye Sang is a demon.
How could the inheritance of the Heavenly Demon Palace possibly fall into the hands of the demon race?
It's even more impossible for the demon race to slaughter the successors that the Heavenly Demon Palace has painstakingly selected, especially Situ Jing.
In Lu Chen's opinion, Situ Jing might be the one who was truly chosen.
As expected, a glint of light flashed in Ye Sang's eyes, and suddenly his figure disappeared, turning into a blur as he pounced directly on Situ Jing.
Bang!
With a loud bang, Ye Sang was sent flying back quickly, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth. She stared at Lu Chen and Situ Jing in utter shock, her face filled with disbelief.
Unbeknownst to them, an invisible barrier of energy had appeared between the three of them, just like the one they had encountered behind that door before. Clearly, this was an array controlling everything.
Lu Chen remained calm.
I knew this would happen.
Situ Jing finally relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Sang stared intently at Lu Chen and Situ Jing, finally slowly standing up. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and grinned maliciously, "You're lucky this time, but you won't be so fortunate once you get out!"
"snort!"
Situ Jing snorted coldly, but in her heart she was hoping that Elder Shi would appear soon.
Elder Shi's cultivation has reached the Venerable realm, so blocking this demon king is not a problem.
Lu Chen, however, was observing Ye Sang with great interest, while his mind was focused on connecting with the Moon Shadow Cat in the Demon Suppression Tower.
"Little Yueyue, what is this demon king's true form again? If we kill it and take its inner core, will it bring you any benefits?"
Moonshadow Cat, now a level nine demon beast, lazily replied, "This demon king's true form is a three-tailed spirit cat, which is considered one of the stronger feline demon beasts. Its inner core will certainly benefit me; at the very least, it can help me break through the level nine threshold and become a great demon!"
Lu Chen pondered to himself.
If we really want to kill it, I'm no match for it; I'll have to let Hongluan do it herself.
Hongluan herself had also broken through the ninth level limit, and as a divine beast, she was a level higher than this demon king.
"well!"
Lu Chen suddenly sighed. He wondered what level he would need to reach to control the Demon Suppression Tower and suppress these demonic beasts, which would then become his pets.
The Demon Suppression Tower is too high-level; Lu Chen can only use some of its simple functions now, such as entering it to escape.
For example, you can leave your pet inside so it can come out at any time.
As for controlling the Demon-Suppressing Tower to subdue demonic beasts, Lu Chen doesn't yet have that ability. The Crimson Python and the Azure Rock Lion King were only taken into the Demon-Suppressing Tower by Lu Chen because they voluntarily recognized him as their master.
So, Lu Chen had no choice but to do his best to train his existing pets.
"It seems we can only continue to wait. Perhaps someone else will be able to pass this test and become a candidate successor!"
Lu Chen's gaze swept over the remaining thirty doors.
The other four major human factions, the demon race, and the demonic sect all have many members still in this passage, and it's unknown how many will be able to pass this test.
What if it doesn't pass?
This wait lasted for three days.
Finally, another door opened, and a pale-faced woman in purple robes emerged, her beauty breathtaking.
"Yuan Ziyue?"
Lu Chen was slightly surprised.
When Yuan Ziyue saw Lu Chen, she was clearly stunned for a moment, then her face lit up with joy. She ran over without any hindrance and went straight to Lu Chen.
"Um?"
Lu Chen was secretly alarmed. It seemed that everything that happened in this hall was under the control of the mysterious person behind the scenes.
The other party knew that he and Yuan Ziyue would not kill each other, so he allowed Yuan Ziyue to come to his side.
"Young Master Lu, what brings you here?" Yuan Ziyue's surprised expression seemed genuine. She had gone through countless hardships in this passage before finally mastering these three techniques, and then opened this door to come here.
I also wondered what would happen if I failed.
Are we trapped there forever?
Lu Chen and Yuan Ziyue spoke in hushed tones for a moment, confirming each other's guesses.
"snort!"
Situ Jing glanced at the two of them casually, then turned her head away and didn't look at them again.
