Chapter 2151 The Origin of the Demonic Path
"If the Demon Lord still wants me to give you some face, then let's have a proper discussion and not resort to bullying tactics."
According to the laws, the Demon Lord should be stronger than Chen Ruyan, but the problem is that Luo Hong can use the Heaven-Breaking Spear to compete with him for the power of the Great Dao of Space, and Luo Hong's Primordial Power has just more than doubled.
Therefore, it would be relatively easy for Luo Hong to deal with him.
"Humph!"
Although Shi Kongyu snorted coldly with an unhappy expression, he still wisely withdrew his oppressive aura.
Just as the surrounding demonic cultivators felt a sense of relief, they were suddenly struck by a spatial force and were all teleported away.
When they reappeared, they had already fallen into an unknown pool of demonic energy. They only had time to churn for a moment before losing all consciousness.
Although Luo Hong did not witness the fate of these demonic cultivators, she could imagine it would not be pleasant.
"This is not the place to talk. If Fellow Daoist Luo is willing, please go to my palace."
With a wave of his arm, Shi Kongyu opened a circular portal to space.
Luo Hong glanced into the courtyard and saw a beautiful garden with birds singing and flowers blooming on the other side, full of the unique scenery of the Demon Realm.
"That's exactly what I was thinking."
Luo Hong wasn't afraid of any ambush, and in a flash, she disappeared into the area.
Seeing this, Shi Kongyu became even more wary. After he followed, the spatial gate immediately closed, leaving only an empty street behind.
Upon arriving at the palace courtyard, neither Luo Hong nor Shi Kongyu continued their previous conversation.
After a brief tour, Shi Kongyu set up a table in the center of the courtyard, and he and Luo Hong each sat facing each other with a small table.
Afterwards, Shi Kongyu also summoned a troupe of dancers and musicians to perform several pieces of Demon Lord's music for Luo Hong. Before her eyes were pink legs and lotus arms, and in her ears were all seductive music.
On the table, there were countless fine wines and delicacies that cultivators from the outside world would fight tooth and nail to get their hands on.
Even though Luo Hong was very knowledgeable, she greatly admired the freshly cut dragon liver.
After several song and dance performances, Shi Kongyu felt the atmosphere had eased considerably, so he dismissed the dancers and musicians, and said with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Luo, are you satisfied with my hospitality?"
"Since I came to the Immortal Realm, I have always been a wandering cultivator in the mountains and fields. I have never seen such a scene before. Today, I have truly broadened my horizons."
Luo Hong raised her glass to taste the wine and replied calmly.
However, mere pleasure could not shake Luo Hong's Dao heart, which had already severed the three corpses.
"I'm glad you're satisfied, Fellow Daoist Luo. I heard you were quite interested in the origin of my Holy Domain. May I ask why?"
Shi Kongyu didn't rush to discuss Shi Kongjie's matter, but instead brought up Luo Hong's first request.
"Demon Lord, you should have these maids leave first, so that you won't have to make another move."
Luo Hong wasn't acting out of kindness; she just thought that would be too much trouble.
Upon hearing this, Luo Hong noticed that the demon maid who was pouring wine for him trembled slightly, but quickly recovered and showed no unusual expression.
"Haha, I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Luo to be such a chivalrous person. You may all leave."
Shi Kongyu laughed loudly and then gave instructions to the four maids serving the two of them.
The four women immediately rose, bowed, and left gracefully.
"Fellow Daoist Luo may now speak."
Shi Kongyu waved his hand to activate a restriction, then nodded to Luo Hong.
"My main concern regarding the origin of the Demon Realm is whether it occurred before or after the appearance of the four statues in the Heavenly Fiend Suppressing Prison Technique?"
The "Heavenly Fiend Prison Suppression Technique" is a top-tier classic text of the Demon Clan, and its legendary creator, the Heavenly Fiend Holy Emperor, is directly related to the origin of the Demon Realm.
Even within the Night Sun Imperial Palace, there are statues dedicated to him and another ancient demon lord.
Upon hearing this, Shi Kongyu frowned instantly, even temporarily setting aside his resentment towards Shi Kongjie, as the meaning conveyed by Luo Hong's words somewhat overturned his previous understanding.
After a moment of contemplation, Shi Kongyu did not answer, but instead used his divine sense to open a huge spatial gate behind him.
This gate leads to a magnificent hall, where incense burns brightly, clearly indicating that it is used for sacrificial rites.
At the very top of the main hall stand two enormous statues.
One of the statues is entirely white and depicts a woman with kind eyes and a gentle smile, resembling a mother to all living beings and giving people a sense of peace.
The other statue was entirely black, with twelve heads and twenty-four arms. The heads displayed a variety of expressions, including anger, joy, indifference, and sadness, seemingly embodying all the emotions in the world. The hands were also forming various hand seals, some with fingers spread wide, others with waving and grabbing, doing everything possible to bewitch and captivate.
Luo Hong looked into the twelve pairs of black eyes on the twelve heads and immediately felt a sense of being pierced through, and also felt a strong sense of familiarity.
"The one on the right is the Netherworld Mother, who created all living beings in the Demon Realm, while the one on the left is the Heavenly Fiend Saint Emperor, as you mentioned."
Legend has it that the Immortal Realm originally had no fertile ground for the cultivation of demonic arts. It was only by the Holy Emperor sacrificing himself and cleaving through the endless void that the laws of a region were slightly altered, thus forming the Demon Realm as we know it today.
"And since the Heavenly Fiend Suppressing Prison Technique was created by the Holy Emperor, it must have originated after the Demon Realm."
Shi Kongyu looked extremely serious and authentic.
What he said was the common understanding among demons regarding the origin of the Demon Realm, something Luo Hong already knew.
Luo Hong had come here today hoping to learn some secrets, but it seems she is destined to be disappointed.
Of course, there is also the possibility that Shi Kongyu is deliberately concealing the truth.
Luo Hong had no doubt that the origin of the Demon Realm came from the Heavenly Fiend Saint Emperor and the Netherworld Holy Mother, these two ancient venerable beings.
However, how they came to be is a matter that deserves careful consideration.
"The technique of the Heavenly Fiend Suppressing Prison Technique is recorded in the four statues. I, Luo, have been fortunate enough to see it. The reason why I have doubts is because I recently obtained a similar statue. I would like to ask the Demon Lord to take a look."
After saying that, Luo Hong took out the Blood God statue with a flick of her wrist.
The Blood God himself had long since perished, leaving behind only a strange and profound cultivation technique.
Logically speaking, if it were the inheritance of the Blood God, it would be impossible to cultivate in the Primordial World, since even the Blood God himself could not exist in the Primordial World for long.
Ke Luo Hong used her supernatural powers to calculate and found that although this technique was bloody and strange, it led directly to the Great Dao and was enough to allow cultivators to reach the Great Luo realm.
Fortunately, this method cannot cultivate the power of chaos, but only a unique blood demon energy.
Although it is quite different from the spiritual energy that is common in the primordial world, it can be transformed into each other if properly controlled.
This shows that it perfectly conforms to the laws of the primordial world!
After much deliberation, Luo Hong could only attribute it to the primordial world instinctively acting as a corrective force.
However, the world's correction, like natural selection, is extremely "lazy".
Natural selection will allow organisms to evolve to the point where they can just survive, and then it doesn't care about anything else.
The World Correction simply severs the connection between the Blood God Statue and the power of Chaos, and it doesn't care about the Blood Demons that arise from it.
With a swift movement, Shi Kongyu brought the Blood God statue to his front, and with a flash of silver light in his eyes, he began to examine it closely.
A full hour passed before he spoke with a solemn expression:
"This statue is indeed very similar to the Four Symbols of Heavenly Fiends, but I have not concealed anything. The records left by my Night Sun Royal Family are only those that I have just mentioned."
"I wonder about the origin of this statue. Would Fellow Daoist Luo be so kind as to tell me?"
“Since that’s the case, then I, Luo, will be frank. This statue is the result of the fall of a Chaos Demon God.”
Strictly speaking, the Blood God is not a Chaos Demon God, since a Chaos Demon God must at least have the strength of a Dao Ancestor.
Judging from the Blood God's performance, this guy is at most at the Great Luo level and can only serve as a divine messenger.
However, considering the current situation, Luo Hong naturally had to exaggerate the situation to get Shi Kongyu to cooperate.
Upon hearing the words "Chaos Demon God," Shi Kongyu's face immediately twitched, and he waved his hand to move the Blood God statue back onto Luo Hong's desk.
The Night Sun Dynasty has controlled the Accumulated Scale Void Realm for so long that it has naturally used the body of the Chaos Demon God within it to comprehend and even utilize the laws of chaos.
Shi Kongjie is a perfect example!
Therefore, Shi Kongyu was not unfamiliar with the Chaos Demon God, but he had never thought, or rather, the entire Demon Realm had never associated the Four Symbols of Heavenly Fiends with the Chaos Demon God.
At this point, Luo Hong's meaning was quite clear.
The Four Symbols of Heavenly Fiends were also transformed from fallen Chaos Demon Gods, so they could not have been created by the Heavenly Fiend Holy Emperor.
The truth is quite the opposite; it was precisely because the Heavenly Fiend Emperor obtained these four statues that he achieved his later accomplishments.
In other words, the entire Demon Realm was born under the influence of the Chaos Demon God!
"If it is truly as Fellow Daoist Luo guessed, what do you plan to do?"
Upon learning of this earth-shattering possibility, even Shi Kongyu, as the Demon Lord, couldn't help but feel flustered.
After all, the Chaos God must have had a purpose in doing something that required sacrificing his own power.
Once they launch their attack, regardless of what happens to the Primordial World, the Demon Race will most likely be the first to perish!
However, this crisis, though significant, is still premature.
In contrast, the Primordial Demon, who is inherently at odds with the Chaos Demon God, is the one that Shi Kongyu needs to worry about right now.
"Does the Demon Lord believe that I, Luo, will take action to eliminate the Demon Realm?"
Luo Hong spoke the coldest words, yet a smile graced her face.
"This is the most convenient way."
After putting himself in her shoes for a moment, Shi Kongyu realized that he would make such a choice.
No matter what you're planning, I'll grind all your pieces to dust, and everything will be resolved!
"This is indeed the easiest method to think of, but the more so, the more vigilant we need to be. The Chaos Gods are not simple creatures."
To say that Luo Hong never considered doing this would be a lie.
But before he could even process the thought three times, he extinguished it.
First of all, the demonic path has spread too widely in the primordial world. Even in that remote corner of the human realm, the demonic path exists, and its development is quite good.
It must be said that the Demonic Path does indeed possess its unique advantages.
Forcibly erasing it would certainly cut off the path of some people, who would not care about the conflict between the Primordial World and the Chaos World.
Blocking their path is not much different from killing them, so even if we spend a huge amount of money to wipe out all the demonic cultivators, the phenomenon of repeated prohibitions will inevitably occur afterward.
Ultimately, the demonic path is an existence that conforms to the laws of the primordial world.
Secondly, doing so seems somewhat like being cowardly before the battle even begins.
Even if she still has to take action in the end, Luo Hong needs to figure out what the Chaos Demon God's purpose is in doing this.
Acting recklessly could lead to falling into the trap set by the Chaos God!
"I, Shi, will definitely investigate this matter with all my might! As for Fellow Daoist Luo in the Jilin Void Realm, he can do whatever he wants with him. As long as Shi Kong can't get to Night Sun City, I won't bother with him anymore!"
Faced with a conspiracy that threatened the entire Demon Realm, and even the entire lineage, Shi Kongyu instantly understood.
"By the way, have you mentioned this matter to the Lord of the Samsara Palace?"
Shi Kongyu suddenly remembered that he and the Lord of the Samsara Palace also had a plan to overthrow the Heavenly Court.
"There has never been, nor is there any such plan. The past or present is an obstacle, and it would be good to have it removed."
The Lord of Samsara Palace is not a self-corpse, yet he is better than a self-corpse.
Luo Hong believes that before it destroys the ancient or the present, it will likely be unable to communicate normally.
"Since that's the case, then I, Shi, will not say anything more. Would you mind if I excuse myself for a moment?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Kongyu nodded and hurried off to give some instructions.
"Do as you please, Demon Lord, Luo."
As Luo Hong was speaking, something suddenly stirred beneath her right arm, as if it were crawling inside her robe.
"Ah, I almost forgot, I have another favor to ask."
"Fellow Daoist Luo, please speak frankly. My demon race may need to rely on you more in the future. I, Shi, will certainly provide any support I can!"
Shi Kongyu knew that in order to deal with the Chaos Demon God, he had to form an alliance with Luo Hong, the Primordial Great Demon, so he was already determined to shed a lot of blood!
However, aside from the interface's core essence, Luo Hong really doesn't lack anything right now.
He spoke up this time not for his own sake.
"I need to cultivate in the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave, and I humbly request that the Demon Lord be willing to part with it."
The Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons is an ancient relic of the Demon Realm, gathering the essence of countless years of poison-based demonic cultivation. It is the most suitable place to make a home for A Zi.
The unusual thing in Luo Hong's sleeve just now was A Zi's plea.
"So this is what it is. The poison path in my Demon Realm has long been weakened, and the Ten Thousand Poison Cave has been covered in dust for a long time. If it can regain its glory in Fellow Daoist Luo's hands, it will not be a waste of the efforts of those predecessors."
Although the Night Sun Dynasty has interests in the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave, they are not central to it. Using them to do someone a favor is undoubtedly a huge profit!
"Then thank you very much, Demon Lord. I will take my leave now."
Luo Hong smiled, stood up, bowed, and stepped out to the entrance of the courtyard.
It's not that he can only move such a short distance, but rather that there are many powerful spatial restrictions in this palace.
Since he had already reached a preliminary cooperation agreement with the Stone Sky Fish, there was no need for him to break the ban and leave; it would just mean moving around a few more times anyway.
"We sisters have come to greet Your Majesty."
Surprisingly, the four demon maids who had previously served them were still waiting there.
"Are you waiting for me here?"
Luo Hong's eyes flashed, and she had already guessed what was going on.
"We sisters have all been given to Your Excellency by the Demon Lord. Please take us away."
As she spoke, the four women knelt down in unison.
Although the Demon Lord did not say it explicitly, they knew that if Luo Hong did not respond, they would all face certain death.
But a powerful being would not casually bring someone else's maidservant with him, so they were just hoping for an impossible possibility.
"Then let's go. From now on, my subordinates will only have four words: 'The more the merrier'!"
