Wu Tian let out such a sigh, then suppressed the joy in his heart.
He had always been a rational person and knew very well that this was not the time to be happy.
Back when he was still a spirit cultivator, he thought ascending to immortality was the end.
But he never expected there to be so many realms above.
The so-called immortals were merely low-level beings to be slaughtered.
And when he successfully came into contact with Immortal Kings, he was told that Immortal Kings were divided into five spirits, and above them were the Divine Realm and Divine King Realm.
He always felt that even after reaching the Divine King Realm, there would be new tiers above.
The path of cultivation seemed to have no end.
Under such circumstances, he knew clearly that any happiness was merely illusory.
Even reaching Immortal King was useless, as he still lacked the power to completely defeat the demon race.
Therefore, celebrating halfway through was a bad idea, as it would only lead to tragedy.
He had to intensify his cultivation. Not necessarily reaching the Divine King Realm, but at least finding a way to enter the Divine Realm.
Otherwise, when the Demon Lord returned, he would truly have no power to resist.
With this thought, Wu Tian shook his head and waved his hand, opening a door in the void.
He returned to the Sacred Dragon Treasure, collected all the treasures within into his spatial ring, and then left the Sacred Dragon Treasure.
At this moment, Su Qiannai was still waiting outside.
Seeing Wu Tian emerge, she quickly stepped forward and asked, "How was it? Was it successful?"
Wu Tian smiled at her, simply released his aura, and said, "What do you think?"
Sensing Wu Tian's powerful aura, Su Qiannai's expression froze for a moment, then joy surged forth: "Three Spirit Immortal King?"
"You've reached this level?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "It was just good luck, I received the inheritance of the Sacred Dragon Lord."
"Not only that, but I also obtained many treasures inside. The Divine Crown is also in my possession, so overall, the harvest was very significant."
Hearing Wu Tian say this, Su Qiannai was naturally very happy.
She said with a smile, "This is truly wonderful. With the Divine Crown, we can have over a dozen more Immortal Kings."
Wu Tian chuckled, "Yes, and if we let them cultivate in the Tongtian Tower, I believe with their years of accumulation, they will surely ascend to even higher levels."
After chatting for a while, they realized there was no need to stay in the Spirit Beast Realm any longer, so they decided to leave.
Su Qiannai, under the name of the Heavenly Phoenix, made arrangements for various matters, and then the two returned to the human world.
This journey was not easy for Wu Tian.
After all, at the beginning, he thought that as long as he arrived, he could naturally find out the location of the Sacred Dragon Treasure.
But he never expected so many twists and turns, leading to so much messy trouble.
However, all of that was in the past. As long as the ending was good, then everything would be fine.
Just as the two were about to return to the Demon Slaying Palace, a strange fluctuation came from afar, causing their expressions to change slightly.
"Did you feel that?" Su Qiannai asked Wu Tian.
Wu Tian's expression was solemn, and he nodded, "I felt it."
Su Qiannai said in a low voice, "Judging by this aura, a battle seems to have broken out over there, and the strength of both sides is not low."
"More importantly... one of them seems to be a Demon Emperor."
"Not 'seems like,' it is a Demon Emperor."
Wu Tian said with a solemn expression, "I've had dealings with Demon Emperors before. I can recognize their stench as soon as I smell it."
"It seems another Demon Emperor has been revived. The Demon Slaying Palace must be fighting him."
Su Qiannai said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry over."
"With our current strength, a Demon Emperor is not such a great threat."
"And the Twelve Heavenly Venerables are only at the Ten-Star Grand Unity Golden Immortal level. Facing a Demon Emperor, they are no match."
"Alright, let's go quickly."
Wu Tian nodded, then said nothing more, and went directly with Su Qiannai to the location of the battle.
And at this very moment, within the Demon Slaying Palace, a fierce battle was taking place.
The Demon Slaying Sacred Domain had been destroyed beyond recognition by the impact waves of the battle.
The floating islands in the sky were almost half destroyed, and the scene could only be described as chaotic.
The battle had been ongoing for nearly an hour. Although the Twelve Heavenly Venerables fought together, they were now covered in wounds, and their immortal energy was almost depleted.
On the other hand, a tall man in black robes stood in the void, with a faint smile, showing no signs of weakness.
He said to the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerable, "Had enough? Is this the current strength of your human realm? What a joke."
"Although our demon race has always looked down on you humans, no matter what, humans have produced ten great Immortal Kings."
"But now, your strength has fallen to such a state."
"Indeed, a lowly race is the most inferior race, and no matter what, it cannot change its humble nature."
Hearing the man say such words, the Twelve Heavenly Venerables were all filled with anger, but helpless.
Although Ten-Star Grand Unity Golden Immortals were powerful, compared to a Demon Emperor, there was still a vast gap.
Even with the twelve of them working together and unleashing their strongest combined skills, they still couldn't inflict any damage.
Speaking of which, this disaster was truly incredible.
None of them had ever imagined that a Demon Emperor would be sealed within the Sacred Domain of the Demon Slaying Palace!
This Demon Emperor was named the Poisonous Heavenly Demon Emperor. His poison arts were unparalleled. As long as one was exposed to his poison, even an Immortal King might not survive.
In ancient times, he was not the Demon Emperor who killed the most people, but if one were to talk about the most gruesome deaths suffered by humans, it would undoubtedly be at his hands.
The Poisonous Heavenly Demon Emperor was revived an hour ago. The Demon Slaying Palace reacted very quickly, organizing elite forces in a very short time.
However, in the face of the Demon Emperor's power, cultivators below the Immortal King realm were ultimately just ants. Even with their full effort, they had no chance to resist.
Many excellent Golden Immortals and Grand Unity Golden Immortals were turned into pools of blood under the cruel methods of the Poisonous Heavenly Demon Emperor.
As a last resort, the Twelve Heavenly Venerables had to disband their forces to avoid further casualties.
The situation had now become extremely critical. They had completely lost their combat ability and were no different from fish on a chopping board.
As long as the Poisonous Heavenly Demon Emperor willed it, they could die at any moment in the most tragic manner.
And sensing their silence, the Poisonous Heavenly Demon Emperor felt immense satisfaction.
He had been sealed for too many years, and he had always lived with hatred for humans.
Now that he was finally revived, he was determined to slaughter wantonly with the most brutal methods to vent his hatred!
