Chapter 421 - 421 420 Beiming's Secret

421: Chapter 420 Beiming’s Secret 421: Chapter 420 Beiming’s Secret The Daoist in black, his skin pallid, possessed a frail body resembling that of a young man.

His eyebrows, however, were silver, and at this moment, he was resting with his eyes closed.

He did open his eyes briefly to give Ye Xuan an indifferent glance before closing them again.

“Today is the day Daoist Ao Shun invited us to a feast.

As guests, it’s only right not to break the rules of the Dragon Palace.

Once we’re out of this Crystal Palace, Big Brother will certainly take care of it for you.”

“This king is curious to see just how capable the fool who dares to call himself a ‘Great Saint’ is, to insult even someone from the Fallen Immortal Cave.”

The Daoist in black spoke in a low voice, casting a sidelong glance at Ye Xuan with a trace of a cruel smile emerging, his eyes flashing with cold murderous intent.

This also made the Group of Demon Kings share a sinister laugh, all displaying an eager-to-watch expression.

“Candle Dragon King?” When spotting the Daoist in black, the Candle Dragon King’s face changed dramatically, a heavy shade of wariness crossing his eyes.

“It seems you still recognize me, not bad at all.”

The Candle Dragon King gave a slight smile, looked indifferently at the Candle Dragon King, then closed his eyes slightly, remaining silent, which in turn caused both the Candle Dragon King and the Swallowing Heaven Toad to grow tense.

“Big Brother, this Candle Dragon King is the master of the Fallen Immortal Cave.

Under him, there are thirty-six Cave Demon Kings, the least talented of whom are Luotian Mystic Immortals.

His cultivation is indeed profound and unpredictable, and his divine skills are exceptionally bizarre.

There are rumors that he has already stepped into the Daluo Realm; Big Brother must be cautious,” the Swallowing Heaven Toad secretly conveyed to Ye Xuan.

Regrettably, Ye Xuan was unmoved by the Swallowing Heaven Toad’s warning.

He had not once looked at the Candle Dragon King, yet whenever his eyes opened and closed, a colder shade subtly passed through them, his lips faintly curling up with a strange hue.

As the saying goes, there’s no effort required when luck comes knocking.

Ye Xuan, who had searched the entire Northern Continent for a Demon King of the Daluo Realm, could not possibly miss such an opportunity when one presented itself.

Sitting cross-legged, calm and undisturbed, Ye Xuan had already memorized this person’s aura.

Even if he wanted to escape from this North Sea Dragon Palace, it would be utterly impossible.

Demons gathered together, their demon lights shimmering, making this space extremely eerie.

However, the North Sea Dragon King seemed unaffected and instead raised his cup to the demon kings present: “You’ve traveled a long way to join this grand banquet of immortals, which is a great honor for me, Ao Shun.

Here’s a toast to you all.”

As the North Sea Dragon King made his toast, the demons naturally raised their cups in response.

As the first cup of wine went down, their gazes focused on Ao Shun.

Clearly, these Demon Kings hadn’t come here without a reason, only because the North Sea Dragon King mentioned important matters to discuss.

If there were no benefits to be had, the North Sea Dragon King would naturally not have gone to such lengths to invite them.

“Although Daoist Ao ranks among the immortal class, many of us have been friends for years.

Since there are no outsiders here, may I ask Daoist Ao, what important matters do you need to discuss with us?”

The Black Jiao King, a Luotian Golden Immortal by realm and a figure of considerable renown in the Northern Continent, was now trying to probe Ao Shun.

Clearly, his question echoed the doubts of all the assembled demons.

Upon mentioning the serious matter, Ao Shun’s smile disappeared, his expression slightly grave, causing the gathered demons to wait patiently, knowing that the crux of the matter was about to come.

“Have any of you ever heard of the Beiming Sea?”

After quite a pause, Ao Shun finally spoke, but as his words fell, the attending demon kings looked at each other, their faces filled with confusion, as it was clear none of them had heard of the Beiming Sea.

The Great Demon Kings seated in the front row, some of their faces changed, fists slightly clenched, looking towards the North Sea Dragon King with a glimpse of astonishment crossing their eyes, clearly moved by the mention of the Beiming Sea.

“The Beiming Sea, the Ancient Divine Sea, is rumored to have been obliterated between Heaven and Earth, what does the Dragon King mean by this?”

The responding Dragon King narrowed his eyes slightly, his demon aura slightly fluctuating, and he was anything but calm, sensing that the North Sea Dragon King was about to reveal a great secret.

Ao Shun stroked his beard and smiled, “What if I say that the Beiming Sea has not disappeared, that it lies in the deepest part of my North Sea, what would you think then?”

Whoom!

The responding Dragon King suddenly stood up, his demon aura rippling out, but he also realized his anomaly and calmly sat down again, yet he looked at the North Sea Dragon King with a hint of urgency in his eyes.

“Kunpeng Demon Master!”

Candle Dragon King articulated every word, his eyes gleaming, staring intently at the North Sea Dragon King, causing a gasp from the demon kings present, and making the space eerily silent.

If the Beiming Sea slightly bore unfamiliarity to the demon kings present, the word “Kunpeng” thundered like ear-splitting fame; almost as soon as they had transformed into demons, they had heard this name.

Not just the demon kings present, even Ye Xuan was familiar with it, as Kunpeng was an ancient divine power renowned for fighting alone against two Ancestor Witches during the Witch Demon Wars and ultimately falling amid an ambush by six Ancestor Witches between Heaven and Earth.

And deserving of the title ‘Demon Master,’ it also indicated the supreme status Kunpeng held among the Demon Race.

“In the Beiming resides a fish, its name is Kun.

Kun’s enormity is unknown, thousands of miles perhaps; transformed into a bird, its name Peng.

Peng’s back, unknowable, thousands of miles perhaps; in rage it flies, its wings as if clouds drooping from the sky…” Ao Shun spoke quietly as he surveyed the expressions of the various demon kings, his eyes also flickering with excitement.

Kunpeng, with wings spanning ninety thousand miles, rising straight to the Nine Layer Heavens, was not just said in vain, it had truly existed.

Since the Sky Opening, Kunpeng was an innate spirit; the only one between Heaven and Earth, and also that most supreme Quasi-Saint.

“The Beiming Sea is where Kunpeng was born.

Though Kunpeng fell during the Witch Demon Wars, a hint of his True Spirit still returned to the Beiming Sea.

And after being sealed for countless Time in the Beiming Sea, its restrictions started to loosen a hundred years ago.

According to my prediction, in another ten years the seals will dissipate, which is why I invited all of you here,” the North Sea Dragon King narrated smoothly.

At this moment, Ye Xuan listened quietly, his expression unchanging, while the demon kings present breathed heavily with fiery looks in their eyes, extremely agitated, including the three Great Demon Kings who accompanied Ye Xuan.

No wonder the demons reacted so; knowing that Kunpeng was a Quasi-Saint and the Beiming Sea was his sacred ground, undoubtedly containing inconceivable treasures and inheritance.

Whoever obtains the Kunpeng inheritance could ascend to the heavens in one step, how could they not be moved?

“The old dragon has weak cultivation and would not dare to monopolize the Beiming Sea alone, especially as it is bound to be perilous.

It is only by inviting fellow Daoists to go together that we can acquire the Demon Master’s inheritance,” declared the North Sea Dragon King magnanimously.

“Big brother, the Beiming Sea holds the Kunpeng Demon Master’s inheritance, we definitely must not miss it,” Candle Dragon King communicated in a whisper, his voice extremely urgent.

Regrettably, Ye Xuan did not respond at all, his lips merely curling into a cold smile as he looked at the North Sea Dragon King with an exceedingly eerie gaze.
