I will become the Demon Immortal known to the whole world
Chapter 248 - 5: Divine Emperor Youth, Youth Divine Emperor, What’s the Difference?

Chapter 248: Chapter 5: Divine Emperor Youth, Youth Divine Emperor, What’s the Difference?

The woman in black paused in her footsteps, the tinge of madness in her expression turning into confusion, as she stared blankly at the grinning young man beside her.

His smile was confident and arrogant, piercing through the haze like the blazing sun, reaching deep into her heart.

It made her feel at a loss, something she had never encountered in her life before.

"You are nothing but a commoner who hasn’t even set foot on the path of cultivation," the elder in a yellow robe said, tilting his head slightly, his voice hoarse.

"Every unparalleled strong being has risen from the dust, the Demon King no exception, the Demon Emperor no exception."

Liang Hui’s pace remained steady as he stepped past the elder.

He lifted his head, then dropped it, gazing directly at the deathly silent street.

"I will be no exception."

Boom!

A thunderous sound without noise rose in their hearts.

Inexpressible shock caused the six of them to lose their voices, instinctively following in Liang Hui’s steps forward.

Liang Hui’s stature could not be considered tall, even slightly slender.

But at this moment, whether they considered him indifferent or a lunatic, they inevitably followed him forward.

Even though they didn’t know where Liang Hui would lead them.

And the crowd behind the six were also mindlessly following their steps.

...

In Silver Rock City, at the City Lord’s Mansion.

In a secret chamber, two figures sat facing each other.

A middle-aged man dressed in a red inner garment and feathered robe sat in the higher position.

He had thick eyebrows and a prominent nose, exuding great authority.

But his eyes were filled with exhaustion.

"So you’re saying that you accompanied a young man with not even the slightest cultivation level, walked around the city, and then delivered many disciples to the cultivation courtyard?"

"Yes, for some reason we did not understand, we all wanted to follow that young man’s footsteps. That kind of spirit, I have never seen before," the elder murmured softly, hand pressed to his chest, feeling the clarity of his heart’s beat.

"Qi Chao, no, he should now be called Taoist Qingcang..."

The elder did not hold back, informing the lord of the mansion of everything that had happened that day.

"Confident, huh?"

"Elder Huang, you may leave now."

The City Lord’s expression did not change much, he waved his hand, signaling him to leave.

As the door closed, only the City Lord remained in the secret chamber.

He slowly stood up, his eyes reflecting weariness and desolation, his face bearing a touch of self-mockery.

"So what if he is Qingcang, when the path ahead is severed, it’s all in vain."

...

The sky darkened slightly.

In the eastern part of the city district.

Many stone houses were enclosed by a wall, where young people talked and moved about.

But no matter which young person it was, they couldn’t help but fix their gaze on a house in the corner.

Only as night completely fell did the people return to their stone houses.

Liang Hui sat cross-legged on the stone bed, elbows on his knees, hands propping up his face.

He reflected on the various events of the day, his eyes carrying a trace of amusement.

What he saw were all mediocre and incapable people,

Yet the entire Human Race was only a little over ten thousand people. Under such numbers and oppressive environment, he understood.

But those who should die, must die.

He had never been a magnanimous person, but before that, he first wanted to experience the Human Race’s cultivation method of this realm.

He placed the pack from his back in front of him, opened it, revealing four wolf claws.

In his mind, he recalled the Xuanyin Moon Technique.

He reached out and pressed his palm against the wolf claws, sensing the trace of Demon Qi inside.

He activated this trace of Demon Qi, drawing in the Moonlight Essence of the world, starting to enter his body.

Bit by bit, the Moonlight Essence moved within his body in a specific pattern, without any pause in the process.

In the end, all the Moonlight Essence converged in his abdomen, beginning to condense and weave, various mysterious runes began to be inscribed on it.

At the same time, Spirit and Blood Qi started to move towards the abdomen.

As time slowly passed, specks of silver light blossomed in his abdomen, forming a layer of silver Tao Foundation.

"This is the first level of Foundation Establishment, not bad!"

Liang Hui sensed the silver Tao Foundation within his abdomen, the strength in his body that continued to increase, and the improvement of his potential, lightly nodding his forehead.

The growth in strength wasn’t much, but the improvement in potential left him satisfied.

For an ordinary person, even with sufficient resources, it would take a hundred days to enter the first level of Foundation Establishment.

But to reach the first level overnight was, for Liang Hui, merely acceptable.

Given enough resources, Liang Hui could even achieve nine levels in three days.

In fact, upon arriving in the Heavenly Demon Realm and definitively pinpointing its location, this body had already achieved its goal.

Afterward, each additional day he lived, each bit of cultivation knowledge he gained, was an unexpected bonus.

As for the rapid improvement causing damage to this body or the like.

He didn’t care.

He extended his palm, with a touch of Moonlight Essence upon it, casting a faint glow.

He gently pressed toward the stone bed.

Bang!

A palm imprint, several centimeters deep, was embedded in the stone bed.

His body rose, he walked slowly to the window, and spread his arms open to face the moonlight.

"The difference between a young Divine Emperor and the Divine Emperor as a youth, I’ll let you clad in fur and armor take a good look," he murmured.

A faint silver brilliance appeared on his face, concealing his features as his palm beckoned lightly toward the direction of the stone bed.

A pitch-black Bone Armor from a wolf’s claw flew into his palm.

Enveloped in Silver brilliance, runes emerged upon it, melting and transforming its shape.

In just a moment, a pitch-black short dagger, the length of an arm, materialized in his grasp.

Liang Hui’s lips curled into a smile as he pushed open the window, powered his feet, and his figure vanished.

With sufficient strength, he would not delay his revenge to the next day; letting his enemy live another second, he would not feel at ease.

Sensing the aura he had deliberately left on Guan San and Jiang Qi during the day, Liang Hui charged toward the center of the estate.

A faint silver brilliance enveloped him, moving against the moonlight.

In the vast estate, neither the elders nor the cultivating youths noticed a thing.

’Here we are,’ Liang Hui whispered in his heart.

Sensing the familiar aura inside the stone house, he strode swiftly forward.

The short dagger in his palm thrust forward rapidly.

Rip!

The frail window shattered instantly.

His feet powered him as he leaped in.

No sooner had he entered the room than he was already lunging for the figure on the stone bed.

The faint Moonlight Essence on the short dagger slashed forward, like a waning moon descending upon the earth.

Bang!

A crimson barrier appeared in front of Guan San, blocking the slice.

"You are, who..."

The silver brilliance suddenly surged.

Rip!

The blade light swept across, the barrier cracked, blood splattered.

A head tumbled onto the stone bed.

The scent of blood permeated the room.

With one hand holding the dagger, he flicked off the blood, and his palm reached out to search the body.

Quickly, among the debris, he found a jade bottle.

He opened the stopper, sniffed lightly to ensure there was no problem, and then tucked it away into his chest.

His figure flickered and vanished, leaving the stone house, heading toward another aura, towards where Jiang Qi was located.

About three minutes passed when a roar finally came from Guan San’s stone house.

"Who is it? Who dares to commit murder here, seeking death!"

Meanwhile, Liang Hui had already arrived in front of Jiang Qi’s door, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

Such a slow response, the blood must be cooling down by now.

Creak!

The stone door in front of him suddenly opened from the inside, and a gaunt youth poked his head out from the domicile, looking outwards.

Curious about the roar he had just heard.

Instead of the expected darkness, what met his eyes was the dazzling light of a moon-like blade.
