Chapter 1231: Chapter 1207 Demon World Demon Shadow Preparing for Promotion!

East Emperor Palace.

Above the nine heavens, purple lightning danced wildly, and mists surged around an ancient TianQue bathed in thunderous light, with fierce heavenly winds howling and divine brilliance shining all around.

At this moment, Xiao Chen was among the myriad of silver lightning dragons. This visit to see the East Emperor felt somewhat surreal to him. Stepping out from the Great Hall and looking down at the vast land from the high skies gave him a distinctly different feeling.

Human Saint Child.

It was merely an empty title that brought no resources to aid him. He had to fight for everything himself, and not only were there established saint children by the Human Emperor, but also those with exceptional talents challenging him, wishing to take his place.

All of this would push him to the crest of the most ferocious wave!

Thinking of this, the vast land before his eyes became even more elusive. After a few moments, Xiao Chen took a deep breath, and his eyes regained their firmness.

...

Demon World.

The vast demonic aura of the Celestial Demon Wings pierced through the Endless Void and broke through the World Barrier, returning to the Mountain of Ten Thousand Demons in the Demon World, the ancestral land of the Demon Clan.

Without control, the Celestial Demon Wings sank again into the turbid Demon Sea, and upon entering the Demon World, the white skull previously attached to the Celestial Demon Wings also fell from above and sank into the depths of the sea bottom.

The Demon Sea, being the confluence of the dirtiest substances between heaven and earth, engendered an ocean whose depth not even the demon warriors knew.

The white skull kept sinking into the Demon Sea, one thousand Zhang... three thousand Zhang... five thousand Zhang... eight thousand Zhang... ten thousand Zhang... thirty thousand Zhang...

At this point, thirty thousand Zhang below, was already a pitch-black, viscous pulpy filth, but the white skull showed no sign of stopping, continuing its plummet.

Fifty thousand Zhang... seventy thousand Zhang... one hundred thousand Zhang...

The filthy Demon Sea had become solidified, hard as metal, clanging loudly. The white skull now emitted a black light throughout, continuously shattering the solidified seawater, still endlessly descending!

One hundred and fifty thousand Zhang... two hundred thousand Zhang... five hundred thousand Zhang...

The originally few-feet-large white skull was now just a faint light, a Martial Soul division.

One million Zhang!

Finally, this faint Martial Soul seemed to find a hollow and plunged into a space.

This space, merely ten Zhang in size, was densely filled with boundless demonic aura exuding infinite desires. Amid this demonic aura, a figure in a black robe sat cross-legged.

This Martial Soul division was now no more than a strand of faint Ling Guang, like a ghostly image, directly merging into the body of the black-robed figure.

Buzz!

Instantly, the demonic aura surged, and the figure in black sitting at the center of it opened his eyes, emitting a tremendous aura, and a moment of enlightenment appeared in his eyes.

Merely two breaths later, this existence disappeared in this narrow space, and without this strong aura to sustain it, the space annihilated almost in the blink of an eye.

...

Border Wilderness Domain.

Now, the entire Border Wilderness Domain was undoubtedly bustling with noise, with warriors from various domains flocking to the Gu Yuan Tribe, the lowest qualifiers being from marquis-level tribes overseen by venerable figures.

The Human Race Territories under Gu Yuan Tribe’s jurisdiction had reached the terrifying number of thirty-seven, placing it among the top in the entire Eastern Desolate Land in terms of the number of affiliated domains.

However, if measured by area, the territory under the future jurisdiction of Gu Yuan Tribe, compared to some well-established, strong king-level tribes, wasn’t considered large.

Xiao Chen had already returned from the Eastern Emperor Domain, and the reconstruction of the Tribe City of Gu Yuan Tribe was nearing its end. Compared to the original New City, this time, the divine metals and materials used for the city were of a higher grade by far.

As for the materials spent on constructing the formation, they were top of the top tier. Originally, among several formations, only the Xuanwu Heaven Covering Array, because Xiao Chen had stolen a King-level Xuan Shui Profound Ming Turtle as its core, albeit damaged in a fierce battle.

But this time after the reconstruction, the real King Material obtained from the East Emperor Palace, such as the bones of King-level ferocious beasts, and even more so, the Nan Ming Li Fire Phoenix Formation used a King-level Seven-Colored Flame Bird as its main formation, which contained the bloodline of a phoenix.

As for the other formations, the Zhou Tian Stars Forbidden Sky Formation even used high-grade star cores for the re-setup, definitely enhancing the power of the original formation by more than threefold.

Ten days later, Xiao Chen awoke from his retreat. His injuries had not fully healed, but it was no longer suitable for him to heal again at this moment.

Now the Entire Border Wilderness Domain was crammed with too many warriors, not only from the thirty-seven governed domains but also warriors from other domains who came for one purpose.

This battle with the king of the Demon Clan had shaken the Eastern Desolate, not only drawing ordinary warriors but also peer kings who came to offer congratulations, all for witnessing the Gu Yuan Tribe’s ascension to king-level tribe!

Yuwang Hall.

Upon Xiao Chen’s arrival, it naturally caused the Tribal Elders and heads of each hall to gather together.

"Greetings, Clan Leader!"

In the Great Hall, the gathered Tribal Elders knelt in reverence.

This time, the master of the Heavenly Soldiers Hall, Ding Shan, who had been overseeing the extermination of various tribes outside, had also rushed back.

"Elders, how are the preparations going?"

Xiao Chen asked. In reality, Xiao Chen had previously summoned the fortunes of all regions and gathered their forces, never once intending to promote to a King-level Tribe from the start, as it was extremely cumbersome, and the Gu Yuan Tribe simply couldn’t manage it in time.

His reason for staging such a grand formation was always to provoke the Demon Clan into action, and now he had achieved this goal.

Moreover, although the city of the Gu Yuan Tribe was destroyed, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Not only did the East Emperor Palace rebuild the city, but this world-shattering war also made countless tribe members from forcibly subdued human territories submit loyally in their hearts.

"Reporting to the Chief, the tribe has made all necessary preparations for the promotion to a King-level Tribe, whether it be the sacrificial offerings or the sacrifices needed to notify the clans, everything is fully prepared!"

Grand Elder Chun Mu Venerable stood up and announced, "We have exactly nine White Jade Deer, each one ranked at the five-star level!"

The White Jade Deer, being the purest of sacrifices, was often used by various human factions to worship their ancestors and clans. However, capturing White Jade Deer was not an easy task; these nine White Jade Deer were obtained by the Gu Yuan Tribe only with discreet help from someone in the depths of Dragon Fall Mountain Range.

"As for other sacrificial offerings, as per the Chief’s orders, use only the Beast-controlling Tribe!"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded and then said, "How many from the Beast-controlling Tribe have we captured so far?"

"Reporting to the Chief," Shi Ya stood up, as he was the master of the War Master Hall.

"One hundred years ago when the Beast-controlling Tribe’s Void Path was thoroughly demolished, it has recovered slightly over the years. However, it is not feasible to make a massive incursion into their lands. Therefore, in recent days, the Tribe’s Warriors have been carefully penetrating through the fragmented spaces into the Beast Underworld, and also to avoid alerting the Beast-controlling Tribe, we have only managed to capture about three hundred thousand so far!"

"Not enough!"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen shook his head; three hundred thousand from the Beast-controlled Tribe was far too few compared to what he expected.

But without his protection through the Mountain River Seal, the Gu Yuan Tribe Warriors risked entering through the shattered Void Path into the Beast Underworld; capturing these Sacred Beast Tribe Warriors was no small feat!

It seemed he would need to personally make a trip to the Beast Underworld. The Gu Yuan Tribe’s promotion to a King-level Tribe required many sacrifices, far more than just three to five hundred thousand!

Promoting to a King-level Tribe wasn’t just about sacrificing for the clan; it also involved sacrificing to the Mountains and Rivers. As the King-level Tribe would govern the people and subdue the land, all aspects needed careful consideration.

Thus, the creatures used in the sacrifices must not be few!

Remembering this, Xiao Chen turned his gaze and spoke again, "This is a moment of utmost importance for our Gu Yuan Tribe, therefore, all hall masters and tribal elders must unite and carry forth the prestige of our Gu Yuan Tribe!"

"Yes!" Immediately, the elders roared together.

"Moreover, the Heavenly Soldiers Hall needs to accelerate the extermination of different tribes across the regions. The leading of all the Grand Elders of the tribe should be carried out by your Heavenly Soldier Hall, and you must clear the obstacles for our Gu Yuan Tribe before the promotion!"

"The Internal Affairs Hall shall receive the warriors from various tribes who come to our Gu Yuan Tribe for the ceremony!"

"Yes!"

At this point, Xiao Chen paused a moment as he remembered something concerning his upcoming status as the Human Saint Child.

Saint Child was a mere titular honor, all achievements were to be fought for by oneself. Not just his combat power would be assessed, but also the forces supporting him would prove to be a great help.

After all, how could one aim for the position of Human Emperor without any substantial royal forces? How would he govern the land, as the Human Emperor could not possibly attend to every little detail?

Thus, some arrangements had to be made!

"Grand Elder, go inform the supreme beings and legendary grade tribes coming to the ceremony from all realms that their chieftains gather together. Tell them that the king has matters to discuss!"

Naturally, there was no dissent to Xiao Chen’s command.

In the past, the Gu Yuan Tribe possessed its private militia and since these were private, their movements were not extensive. However, now Xiao Chen was gathering these legendary and supreme tribe leaders to act on behalf of the Gu Yuan Tribe to collect youths and children from various realms.

A realm’s legend, and even a Supreme Lord’s tribe, already the strongest forces in their domains, acting as major influencers. Whether they wanted to act or not was no longer up to them.

On the other hand, Xiao Chen didn’t value other forms of tribute as much; the Gu Yuan Tribe had many ways to acquire resources, and these tributes from various tribes were not highly regarded!

...

Half a month later, at the break of dawn, the world was still vast and the horizon lit up with a hint of rosy clouds, casting glimmers of cold metallic luster over the newly cast city of the Gu Yuan Tribe.

Wuu wuu wuu!

Wuu wuu wuu!

Wuu wuu wuu!

The desolate sounds of the horn echoed through heaven and earth, emanating from deep within the Gu Yuan Tribe, piercing the sky vault, startling the entire Border Wasteland!

PS: Today there are still 2 updates. The chief has not yet figured out how to write this King-level part with a bit more momentum. I need to think it over thoroughly to see if I can finish it in one go.
