Sounds echoed from near to far.
"Demoness? It seems her status is not low, to have two factions' Demon Generals kneel. Aside from the forces behind her, this arrival must be at least of Demon King strength."
Ye Yun looked up, his face filled with gravity as he gazed at the black dragon that had already stretched over three thousand zhang. He wasn't afraid of a Demon King, and with his current strength, he could easily kill one.
But what made Ye Yun's heart tremble was the change in the heavenly tribulation. Just as he looked up, the black dragon's body, originally three thousand zhang long, suddenly swelled to nearly ten thousand zhang!
And the Demoness above was clearly already involved. This meant someone stronger than a Demon King had entered the tribulation's range.
Stronger than a Demon King! That would be a Demon Emperor! One of the three great powerhouses of the entire Cang Lan Star!
"I say, are you demons all crazy! Don't you even know about heavenly tribulations?" Ye Yun looked at the still-expanding black dragon, feeling the energy within, and couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle.
The ten-thousand-zhang black dragon coiled in the air, its size growing with each passing moment as more demons entered the tribulation field. The energy it emitted was so terrifying that Ye Yun himself was somewhat afraid.
"Heavenly tribulation? Haha, human, don't you know that in the outer Demon Realm, there is no such thing as a heavenly tribulation? Even exceptionally talented humans cannot stir even a trace of a heavenly tribulation in the Demon Realm. Unless..."
A seductive woman stepped down from the sky, two thin, cicada-wing-like wings flapping constantly behind her.
She stood on a large rock in the valley, her jade-like bare feet not touching the ground at all, as if afraid that the dust on the rock would harm her dazzlingly beautiful feet.
All the demons around knelt on the ground, not daring to look up at the spring of beauty beneath her short skirt.
"Unless what?" Ye Yun couldn't help but ask.
"Unless your talent can break through the Heavenly Dao barrier of our Demon Realm's three stars, perhaps then there's a slim chance of triggering a heavenly tribulation. Hehehe, human, is your talent so great that it can break the records of countless prodigies in our Demon Realm for a million years?" Yu Ye Demoness looked at Ye Yun, couldn't help but stick out her tongue, and gently licked her lips.
So it was a matter of talent.
Ye Yun finally understood. This was the benefit of a higher plane. The Heavenly Dao was powerful enough to help all beings in that plane resist heavenly tribulations. And Ye Yun's tribulation in the Demon Realm this time could also be seen as indirectly helping the Heavenly Dao of the Demon Realm become even stronger.
This was utterly ridiculous.
"Human, I think your handsome appearance is quite good. Would you consider being this lady's male slave? Being my male slave means you can sleep in the same bed with me. Of course, if you don't want to, it doesn't matter, I'll just snatch you away." Yu Ye looked at Ye Yun, almost drooling.
Holy hell!
Ye Yun looked at the lustful eyes of the Demoness and the glistening at the corner of her mouth, his heart collapsing continuously. Were all the women in the Demon Realm this unrestrained, this unreserved?
"Instead of being your male slave, I'm more interested in why you have the exact same appearance as a human?"
That's right, the person everyone called Demoness, apart from those thin wings, was almost identical to a human in every other aspect.
Boom...
As soon as Ye Yun finished speaking, he felt the entire valley's air thicken. Yu Ye's expression changed from charming to icy, her beautiful eyes fixing on Ye Yun like a venomous snake.
All the demons in the valley turned pale at this moment. Countless demons silently cursed Ye Yun in their hearts.
"Haha, I didn't expect to see little Yu Ye here while out for a stroll. What's the matter, did that little fellow anger you, the princess of Wuyue City?" At this moment, on the bow of the flying ship, a shadowy figure in a long cloak stood there, his blood-red eyes surveying the entire valley. Although his voice was amiable, everyone could feel his anger.
"Uncle Da Yan! Don't dirty my ship," Yu Ye said, stomping her foot charmingly at the figure in the sky.
"Haha, it's been a few years, and I didn't expect all the little brats to have grown up. And you've actually reached King-level strength. It seems my niece is exceptionally talented." Da Yan slowly descended from the sky, looking at the mess in the valley with a heartbroken expression.
"Uncle Da Yan, is this really your ranch?" The oppressive aura vanished in an instant. Yu Ye now looked like a well-behaved girl next door.
"Yes, I didn't expect a treasure to be unearthed here. It seems my human slaves are wasted." Da Yan looked at the black dragon in the sky, displeased but also filled with greed.
Three hours had already passed. The black dragon had reached thirty thousand zhang in length. Even though it was tens of thousands of meters high, its spittle felt as if it were right in front of them. According to the information about heavenly tribulations left by Xue Daoguang, the tribulation would officially descend in another hour.
At this growth rate, Ye Yun was certain that the surrounding ten thousand li would be reduced to ruins. He just wondered how far Hei Yi had taken them.
"Pfft... Uncle Da Yan, this kid just said it was a heavenly tribulation. And that it was his heavenly tribulation. A human, his talent is already good if it reaches the average level of our demon race, yet he dares to dream of attracting a heavenly tribulation." Yu Ye pointed at Ye Yun and sneered dismissively.
"Human?" Da Yan turned to look at Ye Yun, and a greatsword instantly slashed out, shattering a large rock next to Ye Yun.
"With my nature of killing or enslaving any human I see, you should already be lying dead by now. But you claim this is a heavenly tribulation you've triggered, so I want to see for myself if this treasure unearthed before my eyes is indeed your heavenly tribulation!" Demon Emperor Da Yan stared at Ye Yun with his blood-red eyes, the tips of over a dozen fleshy tendrils peeking out from beneath his black cloak.
"Heh, Demon Emperor Da Yan's bloodlust is indeed formidable. Then, does the Demon Emperor know what a heavenly tribulation looks like?" Ye Yun inwardly mourned the intelligence of these demons. Do I not know if it's my own heavenly tribulation?
"I have naturally seen heavenly tribulations. The illustrations in ancient texts are lifelike, and perhaps there are some differences, but they all have one thing in common: the accumulation of clouds and the rolling of heavenly lightning. And this..." Da Yan pointed at the black dragon in the sky, "...is clearly an anomaly of a treasure being unearthed!"
...
Ye Yun covered his head and stopped speaking. How could he possibly converse with them about paintings and calligraphy?
"Kid, I don't care if you have backing in the Demon Realm. From now on, you are a human slave of Da Yan City! Refuse, and die!" Demon Emperor Da Yan stared at Ye Yun's sturdy physique and couldn't help but shout.
What a fine specimen of demonic seed! And judging by the aura and strength on Ye Yun's body, he shouldn't be too weak.
In the face of a great treasure, he completely forgot the hesitation he felt when he first arrived from the distant central region. He also forgot the fear of having over a thousand of his seals instantly broken.
Ye Yun, however, remained silent, looking at the black dragon in the sky, a strange light flashing in his eyes. Time was passing a bit slowly. His Great Annihilation Technique was getting quite thirsty.
