Chapter 400: True and False Demonic World
Sang Luo asked Minos, "Do you know where they went?"
"Well, when the Fallen Angel tried to assimilate me, I also absorbed all of his memories and discovered many unknown secrets." Minos said, "Quan Jin and Xiao Bao must have gone to the Demon Realm."
Sang Luo was surprised. He turned his head to look around, then looked away again. "...Aren't we in the Demon Realm?"
Minos shook his head, "It's the real demon world, not the virtual demon world."
Sang Luo became even more confused.
Fei Yuan also looked at him with interest and listened attentively.
Minos's fingers traced a few dots in the air, connecting them into lines, and the lines into a plane. Under the reflection of the light, an identical shadow appeared on the plane. "Do you know why this land is called the Void Demon Realm, and not the Demon Realm?"
"The Virtual Demon Realm is the image space world projected by the Demon Realm to the outside world?" Fei Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the plane he drew, guessing.
Minos looked at Fei Yuan with admiration and a gentle smile, "As expected of His Majesty Feng Zun, you understand immediately."
He looked at Sang Luo again and patiently explained, "Feng Zun is right. The Void Demon Realm is the 'shadow' of the Demon Realm, like the moon in the mirror, crowned with the word 'Void'."
"The original name of the Void Demon Realm was the Lost Land. It's a transitional area between the Beast World and the Demon World. The two realms have been at war since ancient times, and this land has been a battleground for generations. It's been part of both the Beast World and the Demon World... Having experienced so much war and slaughter, the Lost Land's resources were completely exploited by all sides, and it eventually became an independent, ownerless continent."
Fei Yuan recalled the records he had read in history books and interjected, "But I heard that after the Beast World and Heaven Realm perished, the Demon Realm also perished."
Minos shook his head. "The Demon Realm didn't disappear as completely as the Heaven Realm did. Some remnants remained. Tens of thousands of years ago, the various Beast Kings and Emperors exiled their sinners to this ownerless continent, where they thrived for generations. Unexpectedly, the Demon Lord and his minions descended upon this land and enslaved the orcs. The Lost Land was slowly assimilated by demonic energy, evolving into the current Void Demon Realm, reduced to a mere shadow of the Demon Realm."
Sang Luo suddenly realized, "No wonder most of the demons in the Void Demon Realm are not pure-blooded demons, and the demonic energy here is not real demonic energy, but evil spirits."
"Luoluo, you have seen the real demonic energy. Do you still remember how you went to the Lost City?" Minos looked at her seriously.
Sang Luo reacted and widened his eyes, "The black pool in the first realm!"
"Well, the Void Demon Realm is divided into six realms. The demonic energy in the first realm is closer to the purest demonic energy. The fundamental reason is that black pool. The Demonic Pool is not a natural pool of water, but a man-made world transfer site created by the Demon Lord and his men after they conquered the Void Demon Realm. The pool of water was just a cover-up. At first, the water was clear and cool, no different from ordinary pool water, but over time, more and more demonic energy was mixed into the water, turning it into a bottomless pool."
"No wonder the atmosphere there makes me feel uncomfortable." Sang Luo recalled her last experience. If she hadn't been protected by the holy light, she would have been devoured by the evil spirit.
"...The further I went downstream, the more painful it became. I didn't reach the deepest part, and was sucked into the Lost City by a vortex."
"The Lost City was originally part of the Void Demon Realm. After being assigned to the Fallen Ancient Angel by the Demon Lord, it completely split from the Void Demon Realm and moved ever closer to the Demon Realm. Now, it's located between the Void Demon Realm and the Demon Realm. You stumbled upon the gate to the Lost City by accident."
"...Before I took action, I asked the little koi to give me a blessing talisman. It seems to be somewhat useful."
Minos smiled and said, "Well, the little koi has a very special talent. I'll ask her to give me a few more next time."
Afterwards, the three of them came to the Demonic Pond in the first realm.
After not seeing it for a few years, the demonic aura here has become even stronger, making people feel uneasy.
The demon world has been quiet for tens of thousands of years, but now, there are signs that it will make a comeback.
Go down and see what's going on, and you'll know for yourself.
Minos and Fei Yuan were born to repel demonic energy, so they could endure it just now. But when they came to the Demonic Pool, their bodies were obviously affected. Their faces turned pale and they were covered in cold sweat, and a dark look of strong suppression flashed in their eyes.
Demonic energy will stir up the darkest emotions and desires in people's hearts.
Sang Luo was not affected by the anger at all and was much calmer than the last time he came.
She raised her hand and swung out a black and white intertwined force, protecting Minos and Fei Yuan.
The two of them were obviously relieved, and their eyes became much clearer.
Only the power of the gods can suppress the evil spirit.
The three of them entered the black pool.
This time, Sang Luo was not hindered again and encountered the space vortex of the Lost City on the way.
The vortex seemed to be a living creature with its own consciousness. This time, it didn't dare to get close to Sang Luo at all. After seeing her, it ran away in shame.
Sang Luo reached the bottom of the pool and saw the gate lying at the bottom of the water, like a sleeping beast awakening with its bloody mouth agape. The three of them disappeared without a trace in an instant!
…
"Bang!"
A slender figure fell from the sky and hung on the tree. After a while, it fell to the ground with the broken branches.
Sang Luo climbed up from the ground, holding his waist and head, grimacing in pain. Looking back, Minos and Fei Yuan were nowhere to be seen. He didn't know where they were thrown.
She looked around and found that it was very similar to the virtual demon world when there was no sun and moon. It could even be said to be worse. The demonic energy was thick and poisonous miasma was everywhere. There were almost no living creatures in the wilderness, and even few magical beasts could be seen.
She flew up to a high altitude and looked down. A hundred miles away, she saw a fairly large city - Xushan City.
"The King of Beishan died suddenly last night. I heard the murderer was a child. Is that true?"
"It's true. I heard that the child was a pure-blooded Origin Demon. After King Beishan captured him, he wanted to replace the child's Origin Demon bloodline. However, he didn't expect that the child had awakened the Origin Demon Clan's most powerful Devouring Law. The sacrifice ceremony failed, and he was even eaten by the child as food!"
"The Demon Lord Cang Fu locked the child in a specially made magic cage, but when he woke up the next morning, the child was gone! Isn't this a mystery?"
"Stop talking nonsense, everyone. Hurry up and look for him. Maybe he's hiding somewhere in the city."
"The Demon Lords have ordered a land-wide search. Whoever finds that child will be rewarded with millions of magic crystals!"
"But... that's the young demon. He even ate the King of Beishan. Even if someone really found him, who would dare to touch him?"
"With Lord Cang Fu Demon around, what's there to be afraid of? If he dares to reveal even a hint of demonic energy, the Demon Lord will arrest him on the spot!"
Sang Luo hid in a corner as several teams hurriedly passed by.
As soon as she thought about it, a fair-skinned little boy with black hair and black eyes appeared in her arms. His belly was bulging and he was chewing something in his mouth.
