Chapter 430

All members of the Demon Clan inside the Hall of Demogorgon were incredibly silent, looking at Leylin with great anticipation and hope.

Leylin who fell into his own thoughts finally smiled relaxedly. "Okay, I agree to help you open the First Demon Area."

So much has happened in this short span of a few years that uncertainty and an impenetrable mist of unknown has blinded many, leaving them with an undetermined future and pending hope.

Most importantly, time was running out!

This continent seems to be reaching the end of its energy cycle. Perhaps, the energy of this place would empty out after another one thousand years.

The energy of this continent is really scarce at this moment. It's been ten thousand years, and no new King God Realm warriors have emerged. It's because of the change of energy. In the legends, it's explained that each continent has its own cycle of energy.

At first, its energy is full. After creatures start to appear and absorb the energy, gradually, after hundreds of thousands of years, the energy of the continent will be drained up. At some point in time, it will be over.

In Grace Mainland there were invincible existences in Immemorial Epoch, and each of them seemed to have endless powers.

In that era, the seven Demogorgons who are depicted in the Hall of Demogorgons and that had surpassed the King God Realm had left the continent to outer space.

Those were enough to prove how thick the heaven and earth energy was in those two eras. Also, they had had so many rare and precious natural products, which helped them reach that level.

Currently, this continent was worn out by strong creatures in the Immemorial Epoch, and the experts of the Antiquity. At present times, it was hard to reach the high realm.

If the Grace Mainland didn't have the natural energy anymore one day, warriors would have nothing to support their cultivation, which would hold them from reaching the higher realms.

Without heaven and earth energy, spiritual herbs couldn't grow. Without heaven and earth energy, there would be no Essence Qi crystallization.

Heaven and earth energy was the root of all strong clans. The day this energy was drained was the doomsday of all races.

Leylin who understands this point also knew that using one third of this remaining energy for opening the First Demon Area is too big of a price to pay but even still he paused for a while and then asked, "What should I do?"

"Use the Immortal Demon Blood!" Serret Black let out a low shout.

Leylin raised his eyebrows, although the two demon clan leaders have tried to test his bloodline through some ancient equipment they were still unable to identify his ancient branch and Leylin hadn't told them about Immortal Blood but they still found out about the Alaister family ancestry.

"Immortal Demon Blood, the blood of the Undying Demon Tribe! The Undying Demon Tribe is the tribe that had the strongest fighting competence among the other tribes of the Demon Clan in ancient times. It's the only tribe that could fight face to face with the same realm God Clan members. And, the God Clan is considered the perfect race. In the Antiquity, a Spirit Realm God Clan warrior could kill three warriors at the same level from the other clans except for your clan. And, only the members of the Undying Demon Tribe could fight the God Clan's members one-on-one without falling into the disadvantaged situation."

Leylin eyes narrowed, he has heard some legendary stories about the God Clan and their impressive fighting ability and unchallenged hegemony over all other clans, but Undying Demon Tribe was news to him.

The God Clan was one of the ten antiquity clans, the strongest one.

Fortunately this clan has been completely uprooted from the Grace Mainland and has no further roots to make a return leaving them without any chance of recovery.

According to the legends from different clans, the first clan that ever existed on this continent was the God Clan. They seemed to be the favoured kind of the Almighty in heaven. From the day they were born, they were destined to be the lord of this place with endless powers.

During a very long period, the God Clan was the real leader of the other tribes. It was the leader who ruled the ten tribes, controlling the entire continent.

But all that changed one day when the other nine tribes united and banished the God Clan, this powerful clan. Thus, the strongest clan of this epoch disappeared.

Many other clans told the legend of this clan. They told the tale that when the nine tribes joined hands and dealt with the God Clan, this clan had run away, leaving the Grace Mainland, going to the universe. They had never appeared in the Grace Mainland ever since.

There were many tales about the God Clan. However, when the pagan tribes talked about the God clan, there were always some similar stories about how strong their supernatural powers were.

The nine clans had pushed this clan away from the Grace Mainland, but no tribe dared to say they had the triumph over this clan.

The God Clan was the strongest clan in the Antiquity Time. Every tribe recognized them. If the God Clan were still on this continent, they would be the Masters, as before.

'It seems Alaister family is more competent than i initially thought, obviously most of them haven't retained much of their previous clan glory but if they can somehow revert to their origin and gain some inheritance the Alaister family would take a leap through the dragon gate.'

Serret pointed behind him. "See? The seven Demogorgon statues are all the experts of our Demon Clan who had surpassed the King God Realm during tens of thousands of years. Our Demon Clan has many branches. As far as I've known, the Demon Clan had more than dozens of branches in the Antiquity Time. Your Undying Demon Tribe is just one of them. However, there're three out of seven experts who had surpassed the King God Realm, and were from the Undying Demon Tribe!"

'With their competence, it's no surprise.'

"You have the Immortal Demon Blood. It's the Demogorgon's blood! It's the same blood that those three experts had. And, the Demogorgon's blood is the key to open the First Demon Area. Only the Demon Clan's branches that have the Demogorgon could possibly have the Demogorgon's blood, which is the blessing of our ancestors!" said Serret with a respectful face.

"I see... I presume much like God Clan, the Undying Demon Tribe is also no more."

"Ye-yes... Not long after the God Clan left, the Nine Clans Great War happened. As the Undying Demon Tribe had the strongest fighting competence in the Demon Clan, they continued to shoulder the most important missions of the clan. In that war, they had almost no members remaining." Serret said regretfully.

"In the end, when the Human Clan rose, the Undying Demon Tribe disappeared. Otherwise, Human Clan would never have a chance to rule the continent." Dalon growled.

"Humans have always been rather good at making profits in others misfortune." Leylin said, and pointed at the drawing of an ancient demon drawing. "Do you know him?"

"He was a precursor of our Demon Clan. According to the description from the Demogorgon statues, he was called Leonidas Larrington. In the Antiquity and after the war with the God Clan, he was one of the most prominent warriors of our clan. He had reached the King God Realm at an amazing speed. Later, he didn't wait for too long. Or perhaps it had happened in that time when heaven and earth energy wasn't enough to help the King God Realm warriors in breaking through the next realm. He didn't continue to break through here to become the eighth Demogorgon. He left early. This precursor called Leonidas Larrington was a miracle of our clan during that period. He had comprehended the power of Darkness. He didn't have many rivals for his whole life."

Leylin nodded as he could confirm the demon in that drawing was Leonidas Larrington.

From the Blood Vein Ring, he got a streak which said that Leonidas Larrington was one of the Eight Cortege of Bloodthirsty, a servant of Blood Vein Ring's previous owner.

'Such an impressive person became a servant...Well that pretty much sums it up, The Blood Vein Ring previous owner most likely didn't belong to the Grace Mainland.'

"Let's get started then there is no need to delay further, the other clans are already at their toes ready to pounce."

"Yeah, if you came a year ago like we planned it would have been much smoother. It took a lot out of us to get them to retreat momentarily, we must act fast now." Dalon said miserly looking at the distorted appearance of his fellow clansman who just returned from a bloody and brutal fight.

"Well I had to go to Divine Land to handle some business."

Serret, Dalon and Leylin walked forward and stood right at the center of the seven Demogorgon statues. Under their feet was a magic formation sketched by demonic patterns. Demon energy was seething, releasing the aura that could distort people's souls.

"I heard you made a move personally and greatly injured the human clan's vitality." Serret was quite hesitant as he asked the question. There have been some rumours but nothing solid is known.

"I don't care about distinctions like humans and pagans, some dumb people stood against me so i flickered them into oblivion." Leylin said coldly as his calm dark eyes glanced through Serret and Dalon hinting at something.

Droplets of cold sweat appeared on their countenance, they finally confirmed that the rumours are quite in fact true!

'What a monster.' They thought simultaneously and looked in each other's eyes knowing that despite their enormous strength the man before them is even more dangerous.

Serret forced a smile and spoke, "The entrance's here. We just need only one thing, your Demogorgon Blood. With the Demogorgon Blood as the key, we can activate the other things we've prepared."

"Okay."

Leylin didn't say anything as Immortal Demon Blood fell from his fingertip, onto the subtle demon drawings underneath his feet.

A dazzling red halo expanded from the patterns under their feet. That massive formation sparkled while flows of black flame which were as viscous as a flaming liquid, pouring on the demon patterns.

At that moment, the patterns were filled with energy, which activated some mysterious formations.

The strange formation arrayed with demon patterns and drawings seemed to become the giant, gloomy mouth of a beast, releasing a powerful suction force. Shortly, all the Demon Qi in the Hall of Demogorgon was drawn. The suction force from the patterns raked through the place, covering everywhere.

Rumble rumble rumble!

The massive pillars in the hall trembled, as a giant passage that was drawing energy appeared above their heads.

An immense, torrential energy wave shot out from the energy passage towards the Grace Mainland. Just like a powerful pump, it started to suck the heaven and earth energy of the Grace Mainland.

Instantaneously, all the experts in the Grace Mainland could sense the change of heaven and earth energy. They discolored in fright, as fear rose in their hearts.

Leaders of the other four clans in the other corners of the Second Demon Area soared up to the sky, flying towards an abyss in the horizon where a massive energy passage had just appeared, their faces grimaced.

They understood that the operation to open the First Demon Area of the Demon Clan had begun.

No one hesitated. Leaders and their hotshots of the four clans dashed towards the general direction of the Demogorgon Hall. They had to stop the others at any cost.

Leylin looked at the lively patterns under his feet, which were like a surging sea. It was seething while the patterns were like sponges taking in energy.

'A. I. Chip carefully analyze and defragment all the inscriptions, formations and patterns. Run them through information in the database to decipher and find patterns for new data and decode it.'

"It has started!"

Serret Black was stirred up. He kneeled down above the patterns, looking at the seven Demogorgon statues respectfully while humming in Demon language.

The seven Demogorgon statues diffused turbulent waves of energy with the abundant heaven and earth energy. When that energy reached the acme, a faint light dot appeared under their feet.

The faint light enlarged gradually, until a glorious five-colored light passage emerged. A colorful light was moving dazzlingly in the passage, that hindered people from seeing what was happening inside.

The seven Demogorgon statues trembled, falling precisely into that light passage before the Hall of Demogorgon collapsed. They disappeared instantly.

"Quick!" Dalon shouted, "All clansmen line up and get in orderly. Do not panic!"

Hearing his shout, members of the Demon Clan urged their beasts, disappearing into the light passage one by one.

"We should move!" Serret at Leylin, shouting amidst the mess of falling rocks. "The Hall will be destroyed soon. Then it will blast. It should also be the time the four tribes get here. We have to get in before the explosion happens. Or else, we'll get hurt badly."

"Do you want me to ask Vishesh to interject the four clans?"

"King of Perpetual Night Forest, Turtle Dragon Vishesh of the monster clan is here?"

"No, he's in Perpetual Night Forest but I have a transportation array constructed in Alaister Castle connecting there. I can contact him to come."

'You can actually get that person to come?' Thought Serret as he was visually shocked and also very doubtful but looking at his confidence and knowing his accomplishments through the years, it might just be possible.

'If he supports us then we have a chance to bounce back even if we fail.' Serret contemplated.

Turtle Dragon Vishesh is a renowned expert and King of Monster Clan, unlike the other clans the monster clan wasn't banished to a different dimension and their strength hasn't dwindled. Vishesh who is one of the oldest living existence in the Grace Mainland is a fearsome character and it's rumoured recently that he has actually stepped into the Rank 10 becoming a God King expert level warrior!

Vishesh is from the infamous Black Tortoise tribe, and the undisputed King.

In the Antiquity, the Monster Clan had four strongest tribes. They were the royal tribes of the Monster Clan.

They were called the Sacred Tribes, and included the Azure Dragon, the Black Tortoise, the Vermillion Bird, and the White Tiger. They had always ruled the Monster Clan with their invincible supernatural powers.

In today's world, Vishesh is the figure that all clans fear the most but it's rather fortunate that he doesn't care about worldly affairs and just focuses on cultivation.

But if Leylin words were true and he could actually make him move then...

"There is no need for now, if we get what we need from First Demon Area others wouldn't be able to do anything but if something unexpected happens then...."

"I'll have him come to Alaister castle and be ready to deploy."

"Then I would be very grateful."

Leylin nodded entering the light passage. Members of the Demon Clan rode their beasts and retreated from this place under Dalon's direction.

The reason why Leylin is so confident about making Vishesh act is because of their previous interaction. To others he might be many things with many fancy titles but to Leylin he has another identify, which is Neelam's master.

Yes, that Neelam Ashdown who gained a strange bloodline inheritance back in the Merchant Union with Leylin's help is actually related to Vishesh.

Her bloodline is the Black Tortoise and Vishesh being one himself feels obliged to take care of her, making her his disciple.

Leylin who went to a Human Clan gathering point in the Perpetual Night Forest to deal with some unnecessary people, Leylin met with him.

As his fame suggests Vishesh is a top expert and also extremely arrogant, Leylin is sure that if not for his breakthrough to True God Realm he would be no match for Vishesh and might even receive a bitter outcome but alas that wasn't the case.

Leylin traded blows with him and eventually came to a mutual understanding. Leylin's impressive power was able to not only compete but also shock him greatly, with just the First Sky of True God Realm cultivation he was able to fight head-on against him.

Amidst the fight Vishesh who has been suppressing his breakthrough for hundreds of years finally threw away his hesitation and stepped into God King realm and finally thought he could suppress Leylin, but just as he thought that it was over Leylin shocked him again by stepping into Second Sky Of True God Realm.

And with that impressive yet unworthy realm in respect to a God King, Leylin suppressed Vishesh and led him to a bitter draw!

Vishesh then became aware of the bitter fact that although he's a top expert of the Grace Mainland with a sky scraping realm, but the man who stands at the very top is the youngster before him.

And just knowing that his age is the same as his dear disciple sent shivers down his spine.
