Yi Qing looked around, walked to one side and squatted down, “it seems to show the method of entrance here.”

The two were shocked and went over immediately. Indeed, they saw some patterns engraved there. Because it was on the ground, Jing Qi had never noticed it earlier. The writing had been blurred due to age, only the pattern remained visible.

There was three people whose looks could not be seen clearly, but one could guess that it was two men and a woman. One of them held a sword, another held a flute, and another held something unidentifiable.

“Can it be that this demonic aura indeed required three people to work together to break through?” Jing Qi’s eyes brightened. He turned to look at the two and said, “How about the three of try attacking this wall of demonic aura together?”

“Okay!” Lily nodded.

Yi Qing was silent for a while, but finally nodded as well.

Only then did the three step forward, drew upon their Spirit Qi and made attack towards the thick demonic aura. They saw that the wall demonic aura twisted and started to shake. Jing Qi felt a joy inside, and urged everyone to use their full force, “It’s opening soon.”

So they had to mobilize more Sword Qi once more, but this time somehow there wasn’t much reaction. Yi Qing frowned, gave it a moment of thought and switched his Spirit Qi to Sword Qi directly.

Suddenly the screen of demonic aura, as if it was pierced by something, broke an opening. Jing Qi’s eyes narrowed and suddenly withdrew his hand. Before the two could react, his body shape flashed, and he rushed into that opening.

“Brother Dog!” Lily was shocked, but before she could react, the body shape had already disappeared. Only now did she realize that they were cheated, and her face reddened in anger instantly. “That’s unbearable! He said we are entering together.” Indeed, just like when he was young, he only knew how to bully other kids.

Yi Qing looked at the closed opening and didn’t speak. He changed the sword technique in his hand, and instantly, thousands of Sword Qi went directly towards the demonic aura in front of them. In the next instant, as if the demonic aura had encountered its natural enemy, it started to dissipate gradually. Soon, the whole screen of demonic aura disappeared.

“Get inside,” said Yi Qing, as he walked straight in.

“…” Lily stood in confusion for a moment, before following through. If they had known that big brother Yi Qing could do it on his own, why did they even attack just now? For some reason, she suddenly wanted to see the expression on brother Dog’s face.

Just as Lily expected, brother Dog’s face was full of disbelief. He had thought that they would enter sooner or later, but he didn’t imagine it to be so soon. It was almost right after him.

“I was just about to try breaking that demonic aura from the inside, but I didn’t expect that you’ve already come in.” He smiled, as if he didn’t want to get into a conflict with them. His hand subconsciously pressed onto his storage bag.

Apparently the two did not believe this.

“Hmph!” Lily, being young, snorted directly at him, and was just about to say something.

But Yi Qing suddenly spoke. “Where is the exit?” He looked as if he always knew that Jing Qi would rush in first, but didn’t want to pay it any heed.

Jing Qi’s face darkened. This expression again. It was as if he didn’t think he was worth any attention at all. The hand at his side tightened. He didn’t think his choice just now was wrong. This world was one in which the strong survived, after all. He was only seizing a proper opportunity. But looking at the uncaring look on the other boy’s face, he somehow felt an angst, and the sense of grievance as if he was being looked at by someone at the top. They clearly came out of the same village, how could he look at him like such!

“This should be the center of the mystic realm. There must be an exit to the ground level.” Getting no response from the other person, Yi Qing didn’t care about it and simply continued, “This mansion is not big, Let’s look in separate directions.”

With that said, he gave Lily a look, and turned to walk towards one direction.

Lily nodded and went towards another direction too. Before she went, she even left another big “Hmph” in the direction of Jing Qi.

Jing Qi’s face darkened, and his hands moved, as he went in another direction to look for opportunities as well. Just a little girl not yet at Foundation Establishment, he didn’t pay her any attention. He subconsciously touched the storage bag again. After he’s gotten outside, it won’t take long before he made those who looked down on him to pay for it.

Though the mansion didn’t look big, there were countless rooms, and many underground passages. Besides, due to age, the items inside all weathered, with only a thick layer of dust left. The three spent many hours looking inside but didn’t find anything at all, not to mention an exit.

Until Yi Qing’s sound transmission suddenly sounded, “Lower level, right side, come over.”

The other who were looking, stopped short and rushed over towards the room that Yi Qing mentioned. They arrived around the same time. When they entered, they immediately saw a bright white light. An array formation was in the room. It seemed to be activated by wind, probably only activated just now when Yi Qing entered.

This was the innermost and largest room in this ancient relic. The four walls showed engravings of other array formations too, but only the one in front shining with white light seemed still capable of being activated. The white light had a very gentle and peaceful aura, with not even a bit of killing aura. It did not show what it was used for.

“There should be a way to get out here.” said Yi Qing, as he turned to study those arrays on the wall that had lost efficacy. However, he didn’t have any deep study of arrays, and couldn’t figure out what those arrays were used for at all. Lily was a core cultivator, and still in Qi Refinement stage, so she was all the more unable to figure out anything.

Jing Qi took a few steps forward. Without any prior intention to study the arrays, somehow the floor underneath his feet lit up, as if something was activated. The bright array in front of them suddenly shone with immensely bright white light. The light swept in their direction.

Jing Qi was shocked, hurried to withdraw his steps and called out his spirit sword. But a deep male voice suddenly sounded inside the room.

“Fateful person who got my Origin-Returning Pearl.”

Suddenly, a white, translucent figure appeared inside the room. It seemed to be a middle-aged man with a hint of a smile across his lips. He was staring right in the direction of the door.

“It’s an imaginary body,” Yi Qing said with a deep voice. This should be an image that the owner of the relic left during his lifetime.

Indeed, soon the figure continued speaking.

“I am called Yu Xue. I am the head of Demon Realm, the Myriad Demon King.”

Myriad Demon King. The three took a cold breath. They never imagined that this mystic realm was actually built by demons?

“I have spent thousands of years in cultivation, and was fortunate enough to be the supreme among Demon Monarchs, the distinct one in the Demon Realm. This was all because I had the luck to meet a person who used his heavenly abilities to connect the worlds of humans and demons, made sects and demons end their separation, and live in thousands of years of harmony. Countless humans and demons were able to achieve the great Dao and Immortal Ascension thanks to this. Only since then were demons able to understand the true ways toward Dao.”
