Chapter 431

The gloomy sky hung above the dark ground. Deathly, desolate, deep chasms scattered here and there. It was the world that appeared before Leylin's group saw at first glance.

There was neither Demon Qi nor any heaven and earth energy in this place. This world only had a rough, uneven ground, with scattered dried bones everywhere. Those bones belonged to the members of the Demon Clan and giant beasts.

Aart, Jima, Serret, Dalon and hotshots of the Demon Clan were all stunned on seeing the background of the First Demon Area. They were petrified, not knowing what to say.

Looking at the horizon, they could see some mountain ranges jutted up to the sky, hiding in the dark, while the endless darkness occupied the further areas.

There was no life.

This place was even more desolate and barren than the Second Demon Area. It wasn't as beautiful as they had imagined. And, they couldn't see the Demogorgon statues.

"What the hell is this?" Leylin looked around and then asked Serret. "One-third of the Grace Mainland's heaven and earth energy went down the drain for this barren place."

Serret was startled, but he couldn't answer.

People would always imagine the best things. He and Dalon were the members of the younger generation of Demon Clan, who had never experienced the Antiquity War. So, the things they knew about the First Demon Area had stopped at ten thousand years ago.

Dozens of thousands of years ago, the First Demon Area had been filled with Demon Qi. It had so many hotshots of the Demon Clan and the top Demogorgon statues, where they could receive the strongest inheritance. They had the ancient experts to teach them the power Upanishad and give them the treasures of the Demon Clan...

Those memories were their assumptions and the motivation that had urged them to open the First Demon Area.

Today, this place was barren and desolate. Looking at the dried bones on the ground and the scarce energy, all members of the Demon Clan gawked, as they felt they were deceived.

"We haven't explored the place yet. This place should have something we haven't known! I'm sure!" Serret seemed to try to persuade himself to not believe in what they had seen here. He shouted, "Follow me. We should check this place out!"

Many clansmen of the Demon Clan felt dispirited. They stooped as despair filled their hearts, riding their beasts and following their masters.

Dalon Damon was unusually quiet, He talked to his people in a calm and relaxed voice, saying that it wasn't as bad as it seemed.

Leylin kept silent the whole time. He knew talking or arguing was no use in this case.

'There is no way the other clans would let this go....Even Vishesh might not be helpful. This affects the vitality and interest of all warriors.'

Everyone started searching and once they reached the thing that looked like the big mountain, everybody screamed in fright.

It was not a mountain range!

They were the ruins of seven collapsed Demogorgon statues!

Each statue was as imposing as a high mountain. Although they had collapsed, they were almost one thousand meters tall.

Situated between the Demogorgon statues was a group of temples. Those temples were ruined and desolate, no longer having the ambiance they used to have. Skeletons of demons and beasts scattered here and there in the temples.

There was no beam of energy surging on the massive seven Demogorgon statues. There was nothing mysterious now. Apparently, these statues no longer functioned.

According to Serret, the top seven Demogorgon statues in this place could absorb the power Upanishad and the knowledge of the seven Antiquity Demogorgons from the foreign land, establishing their inheritance.

With this inheritance, Dalon and Serret thought they could break through to the King God Realm, which could help them find the way to escape, perhaps.

It was too bad that the seven Demogorgon statues had all been damaged. They lied in the ruins of the temples without any waves of energy around them.

Serret kept quiet for a long time and then asked his men. "Get in the temples. Check everything there. If you find anything abnormal, report it to me immediately."

Members of the Demon Clan rode their beasts, jumping into the temples and starting their quest with anxiety.

Everyone was worried and suspicious, but no one dared to utter a word.

They didn't dare, but Leylin did.

"It's unlikely your search would yield any results, This place has already been ransacked and purged. Total Annihilation."

Everyone discolored abruptly. Light shot out from their eyes while fear rose in their hearts.

Dried bones were scattered everywhere in the vast First Demon Area. There was no life to be found. And, those were bones of the Demon Clan's members and their beasts, not of any other clans.

If a war had happened here, this place should have had bones of other clans as well.

Dalon and Serret then released a powerful soul magnetic field, covering the entire temples to search for energy fluctuation of living beings or something abnormal.

Too bad, no matter how hard they tried, the result was the same. They didn't get anything.

Shortly, their men came back, shaking their heads in distress, indicating that they found nothing.

This group of large temples had no barriers or formations with a streak of energy left. This meant that they would never find what had happened here.

Who? Who was so heartless to kill all members of the Demon Clan in the First Demon Area? No one remained. They had even destroyed the seven Demogorgon statues, cutting their path of further development.

Leylin sighed and finally said, "Let's return to the Grace Mainland. I'll help you deal with the aftermath, we will think of something later."

"It's tough," Serret forced a smile, shaking his head. "Heaven and earth energy of the Grace Mainland is maybe enough to facilitate only one or two King God Realm warriors. Perhaps you don't know it yet. When a warrior is breaking through the King God Realm, he has to collect thick heaven and earth energy sufficiently. If the energy isn't enough, even if he has reached the realm, he will definitely fail. At this moment, the heaven and earth energy there has been consumed by one-third. To restore the patriarch of the Ghost Mark Clan, it requires half of the remaining energy. We... we don't have many opportunities."

"I know what happens when a warrior breaks through to King God Realm. I witnessed with my own eyes when Turtle Dragon Vishesh ascended to Level 10."

"It was you who fought him!!" Dalon asked fearfully.

"I was testing my limits."

"*Sigh* it isn't just him who was on the verge of King God Realm. The patriarch of the Ghost Mark Clan, and that guy from the Dark Clan, they all need a tremendous amount of heaven and earth energy to support them. At this moment, energy in the Grace Mainland's isn't enough. Not to mention breaking through the King God Realm, I'm afraid we can't even continue cultivating."

Leylin didn't say a word but he perfectly understood the gravity of the situation.

'Maybe it's fate that led Ordell away from this wretched hopeless place and into the boundless possibilities of the endless space.'

Leylin couldn't help but remember his dear old lover who was abducted by the Pure Land warriors.

Leylin despite his enormous incredible increase in strength didn't act to retrieve or rescue Ordell from them instead he opted to use the Pure Lands thousands of years of accumulation to help her increase her cultivation realm.

Pure Land considers Ordell as their sage and is ready, willing and able to pour an endless stream of mysterious treasure, elixir and rare cultivation resources to help her cultivate. With such a good opportunity why would Leylin interfere and let their goodwill go to waste.

With such thoughts in mind Leylin didn't barge into Pure Land base to rescue her. Later on as things got progressively worse for humans, all the seven ancient factions joined hands to protect themselves and gathered together.

They all hid in a secret base which was in the Perpetual Night Forest, with such a huge formation even Leylin wasn't sure that he could return unscaved hence he waited till his breakthrough to True God Realm.

After that he moved to Divine Land to claim what was his. Ordell was already a True God Realm expert as well and as such the usability of the Pure Land wasn't much.

Leylin who arrogantly swaggered into the Human Clan base was met with many formidable warriors but after his breakthrough such warriors were too easy for him.

Not even the Third Sky of True God Realm could make him serious. With his formidable strength Leylin steam rolled towards them.

Ultimately he was met with the fearsome group of seven faction leaders. Each one of them were top expert and wielded powerful divine weapons.

These warriors were the reasons humanity still had hope to survive in such dreadful times, Leylin commended their strength but unfortunately against him it wasn't up to the mark.

It was only when Leylin stopped showing mercy and acted heavy handed, did they understood his terror but it was too late.

Finally Leylin killed the Pure Land leader and Ordell's master, who was one of the leaders of the human clan and a Third Sky of True God realm expert.

Leylin wanted to take Ordell back to Immortal Island in Kyara Sea, but he later discovered that Ordell's Master has instructed that upon her death everyone should enter into a forbidden area which led to the chaotic space basin.

Ordell and others who weren't fighting at the front obviously didn't know that Leylin a human warrior was destroying their masters. With the huge scale of reinforcement to the front line everyone thought that an army of pagan tribes had attacked them.

Amidst this chaos and confusion everyone didn't think twice about their respective master order and entered into the dreadful chaotic space basin.

Leylin as a practitioner of space upanishad, searched the basin and discovered in grim fashion that not even a King God realm warrior is guaranteed to escape from such a turbulent space disturbance.

Leylin is sure that 95% of people who enter there would be crushed into smithereens unable to even scream. But despite the grimness of the situation something told him that Ordell isn't that easy to die and probably this might just be another huge opportunity for her.

'To each their own ways... What may prove to be certain death for others might be a life altering opportunity for another. Fate plays odd games...' sighed Leylin.

Leylin looked at everyone's downcast expression and didn't wait for them to gather themselves, moving towards the exit. He was slowly stroking his Blood Vein Ring as he thought about the future when suddenly he paused.

He looked down at his Blood Vein Ring and felt as if a glem was shining for it.

'Can it be...? Of course.. The Master of the Blood Vein Ring and Leonidas Larrington were related and Leonidas is a Demon tribe member...This ring is the key!'

The immense rainbow-like light overflowed from the Blood Vein Ring, as if the Ring Spirit was awakened. That colorful light extended from Leylin, covering the temples and the seven collapsed Demogorgon statues.

Swoosh!

A flow of sharp and enormous energy gushed out from the Blood Vein Ring. The remaining Immortal Demon Blood drops in Leylin's body instantly shot out from his body, lining up in front of him.

Drops of ruby Immortal Demon Blood revolved in the air, carrying the tremendous Blood Qi. Under the guidance of some power, they divided into seven parts, flying to the core of the seven Demogorgon statues.

All members of the Demon Clan were stunned. They were gazing at Leylin as though they were watching ghosts. They all could see that the ring on his hand was transforming the seven Demogorgon statues.

'This is too exhausting...but finally it's over.'

Seven flows of weak energy shot out from the core of the seven Demogorgon statues, gathering at one spot. A small door was generated in the sky above the temples.

Everyone were dumbstruck, gawking at the seven Demogorgon statues.

They were astounded to see that the seven Demogorgon statues seem to be healed due to the strange energy from him.

Rainbow-like light on the Blood Vein Ring ceased and disappeared. The Ring Spirit seemed to be exhausted.

Leylin didn't care about the ring rather he looked at the door. He didn't know where that door led to, but he knew that there was a solution behind that door. And, whether it was the solution for his matter or for all the clans in the Grace Mainland, only God knew.

"Serret Black, as you dare to open the First Demon Area on your own, your clan will be destroyed!"

Right at this moment, a feeble but melodious voice came from the Yin Written Charm Scripture. The scripture swayed and showed itself.

{Yin Written Charm Scripture is a divine weapon of the Ghost Mark Clan and the Patriarch of the Clan recuperates inside it.}

A gloomy shadow also appeared behind it, followed by Kante and Corpse Chief. They stood at the four corners of the temples.

{Kante is the Leader of Devil Dark Clan and Corpse Chief is Corpse Clan's leader.}
