EBE Chapter 199 The Day of Opening
Chapter 199 The Day of Opening
Although the demons also like natural treasures, they do not rely on them too much. They rely entirely on their own strong physique to break through the shackles and achieve supreme cultivation.
Xuan Kun nodded and said with a smile, "Duer, you just said that maybe I could actually break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the Demon King's Tomb. If that's the case, I'll definitely need to prepare the materials needed for that breakthrough."
Durr laughed heartily upon hearing this. "Most of the spiritual materials mentioned above are available in my demon race. The demon race has a vast territory and a pristine ecosystem, which is very suitable for growing spiritual materials. The spiritual materials here are much richer than those in your human realm."
Xuan Kun smiled after hearing this, "That's the best. Then I won't have to worry about anything."
Menalin smiled on her pretty face, put away the list given by Xuan Kun, and said seriously.
"Brother Xuankun, since you've come to my demon tribe, consider the materials on this list as my gift to you! Not to mention the spirit stones, as the daughter of the snake queen, I can still afford it."
Now that things had come to this, Xuan Kun had no choice but to accept it. Seeing this, he took a deep breath and could only thank him.
"Phew~, thank you very much, Menalin."
Menalin chuckled, "We're good friends who've been through thick and thin together. Why are you saying this? Give me some time to prepare. Once I'm ready, I'll hand it over to you."
Dur looked at Menalin and smiled happily, thinking to himself, "The little queen is so elegant, she is worthy of being my supporter."
After Menalin finished speaking, the two of them left.
Xuan Kun also activated his spiritual power to directly evaporate his drunkenness, and turned back into a person with a calm face and clear mind.
Looking at this empty suite where I was the only one there, I muttered to myself.
"When you're in the heart of the demon tribe, it's better to be careful. Getting drunk may seem bold, but you only have one life left."
Xuan Kun walked into the room prepared for cultivation and saw a huge jade spiritual bed placed on one side and several alchemy furnaces in another place. It was really a place where one could both refine alchemy and practice.
"Since we've decided to recover our Nascent Soul cultivation in the Demon King's Tomb, then we should reduce our cultivation to the saturated state in advance! We can break through at any time after entering."
Sitting cross-legged on the jade spirit bed, Xuan Kun began to practice.
Suddenly, he felt that there was a lot of spiritual energy under the jade spirit bed. As he practiced, it was transmitted from bottom to top and was continuously absorbed by him.
Xuan Kun immediately thought, "There must be a spiritual spring or spiritual vein below here, which is purified by this jade spiritual bed and then transmitted out for practitioners to quickly absorb."
In the blink of an eye, a month passed. During this period, Dur and Menalin came to see him once to give him spiritual materials.
After learning that he needed to practice, he never came back.
Xuan Kun also refined the spiritual materials they sent him into the elixir or spiritual liquid he needed, so that he could use them at any time when he broke through.
Xuan Kun got off the jade spirit bed and murmured, "The one-month period has come to an end. The Demon King's spirit tomb will surely be opened soon. It's time to go out."
Xuan Kun had just stepped out of the door when he saw a woman in pink appear at the door.
Seeing the newcomer, Xuan Kun respectfully asked, "Elder Meiyu, why are you here?"
The person who came was Mei Yu, the first ninth-level demon that Xuan Kun and Hong Luan met when they first arrived in the Snake Tribe.
Mei Yu smiled and said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Xuan Kun, I am here on the orders of the Queen to take you to the Demon King's Tomb."
Hearing this, Xuan Kun was surprised and asked, "What? The Demon King's Tomb has already been opened? It seems I'm late."
Mei Yu explained, "No, no, no, it hasn't opened yet, but it won't be long. Let's go!"
As she spoke, she reached out and patted Xuan Kun's shoulder, and instantly teleported away from the spot. When she appeared again, she was already in the air.
Mei Yu stretched her waist wrapped in pink clothes and smiled.
"Follow me."
Then it flew away into the distance.
Seeing this, Xuan Kun also followed. Along the way, Xuan Kun found that the scenery on the roadside seemed familiar, and couldn't help asking.
"Elder Meiyu, where are we going? Isn't this the direction I first came in?"
Mei Yu turned her head to glance at Xuan Kun and laughed, "Yes, the Demon King's Tomb is exactly where you and Hong Luan landed."
Xuan Kun's pupils changed and he asked in confusion.
"What, is it... that statue?"
Meiyu nodded and smiled.
"So smart, are all of you humans as smart as you?"
Her words seemed to be teasing Xuan Kun, or praising him.
Xuan Kun secretly thought, "Apart from that statue, what else is there in that place that is worthy of suspicion?"
The two soon arrived at the huge snake-man statue. Xuan Kun stood in the air, looking at the scene below.
This place is no longer what it used to be. It is now surrounded by numerous snake people, and groups of well-organized snake tribes have gathered together.
Xuan Kun followed Mei Yu and flew to a high platform. On top of it, a person who looked unmistakably human was standing or sitting there.
Xuan Kun understood that these were the powerful high-level members of the Snake People, and all those here were demons above level eight.
At the top, several powerful spiritual senses had already locked onto Xuan Kun. Xuan Kun, who was about to fall, suddenly shook his body and stopped in the air. Looking over, he saw five figures sitting above him.
It was this unmanned consciousness that pinned Xuan Kun's body in the air.
Suddenly, a voice came into Xuan Kun's ears, and Xuan Kun cut off all the locks on their spiritual consciousness.
"Xuan Kun, come down!"
His voice was that of a middle-aged man, full of majesty, as if it resonated with this space.
Xuan Kun then slowly descended and looked in the direction of the voice's owner. He saw a man in green clothes, who was looking down meticulously.
It was the snake-man general, Du Lingshan, who had the cultivation level of a demon king.
An old, deep voice spoke, "Du Lingshan! How could a human like him enter the tomb of the Snake-Man Demon King? This is inappropriate!"
Although his voice was very low, the demon snake people present heard it clearly.
Xuan Kun looked up and saw an old figure among the five figures speaking.
Xuan Kun sighed inwardly, "Alas, it seems that the elders that Menalin and Durr mentioned are causing trouble."
Du Lingshan sneered, "Fifth Elder, the Queen, as the Queen of the Snake People, gave an order. How can there be anything wrong with it? If there is anything wrong, it should be the person who disobeyed the order!"
When the fifth elder of the snake people heard that Du Lingshan had assigned someone to disobey his orders, he was speechless for a moment, snorted coldly, and stopped talking.
Another person also laughed and said, "Hey, Lingshan! It's nothing, why would you disobey the Queen's order? It's just for the sake of the tribe. After all, one more human means one less place for my snake people. You also know that the Demon King's Tomb is always opened with a limited number of places! We can't squeeze out our people for outsiders!"
