The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 356: Chapter 293: Polluted World Power (Part 2)

After tearing open the space, Victor gave Lynn a meaningful glance before diving headfirst into the space passage. Lynn understood what she meant; it was nothing but a silent challenge—

That is my territory over there, do you dare follow me?

To be honest, that’s actually my territory!

Not knowing if Victor had left any hidden trick, Lynn didn’t approach the Demon King’s wives but silently stepped into the space passage.

Anyway, he was skillful and daring with top-level divine artifacts; in the Demon Realm, only his own alt characters posed a considerable threat to him. He was utterly fearless.

The feeling of spatial dislocation from crossing worlds couldn’t affect Lynn; in the blink of an eye, Lynn landed steadily in front of Victor.

Looking around, it was a wilderness, except for thicker demonic qi, surprisingly there were no ambushes.

"Miracle Saint Emperor indeed has great courage, dare to come alone to my Demon Realm, truly worthy of being one of the strongest in the current era."

Victor lightly stroked her palm, coldly praising Lynn’s bravery. Though her expression was hard, her praise was genuine.

After all, even she herself wanted to visit the legendary Miracle Saint Emperor in the Miracle World with the accompaniment of the Seven Great Demon Kings; if she were alone like a dragon she would really be nervous.

After all, he was the hero who slew the Demon Dragon Emperor, and the Demon Dragon Emperor’s strength was much superior to hers.

In contrast, the Miracle Saint Emperor stepped into the Demon Realm without hesitating, not even worrying the Seven Demon Kings behind him would block his way back, giving him a complete ambush.

Such courage indeed makes the demons submit.

"Courage is based on strength. To be blunt, if I want to leave, you guys can’t keep me, so there’s nothing to be afraid of."

Regarding Victor’s praise, Lynn just waved his hand, saying old man, you’re flattering me. This is probably a player’s bad habit. Facing a dungeon matching his current level, he really can’t be afraid.

"Heh, if you think it is, it is. Anyway, we didn’t intend to break the agreement."

Victor laughed noncommittally and looked up to see the Seven Great Demon Kings following the Miracle Saint Emperor back to the Demon Realm.

Upon landing, they consciously set up a series of demon artifacts around the space passage; after forming a complete array, they injected their original magic power representing the Demon King authority into it, a power even Victor didn’t possess.

With the gathering of arrogance, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, and lust, the array they constructed suddenly gleamed with a dark sheen.

Lynn instinctively took two steps back, away from that array; because he was filled with light element fighting spirit, the breath emitted by the array made him uncomfortable.

Victor, on the other hand, instinctively stepped forward, greedily inhaling a few deep breaths, as if the rolling demonic qi was some rare delicacy.

Except, for someone at her level like level 999, even the most refined demonic qi didn’t have much effect on her, otherwise purifying the Divine Abandonment Continent wouldn’t be a laborious task but rather a big mouthful of benefits.

After all, that’s demonic qi that polluted the world. Though not as profound as magic power cultivated herself, it’s more nourishing than the demonic qi filling the air in the Demon Realm, because it’s already tainted with a trace of world power, and for the two camps of the Demon Race, whether it’s destroying the world or managing the world, isn’t seeking this?

"What a pity, the chasm of ascension to divinity can’t be crossed with just a bit of world power, cheap for them..."

Victor sighed, speaking as, at the same time she was lamenting the difficulty of ascension to divinity, the Seven Great Demon Kings, with full preparation, started extracting demonic qi far away in the Divine Abandonment Continent across world barriers.

Unlike the Divine Protection Continent where the pollution lasted mere years, the demonic qi absorbed had no use, better to disperse it with a wave. Currently, the demonic qi accumulating in the Divine Abandonment Continent had been eroding the world for nearly millennia. Smelling it prolongs life, inhaling it brings immortality...

Ahem, a bit exaggerated, but in any case, it’s a chance, and what’s more, the quantity is enormous, that’s top-grade demonic qi from a whole continent.

The previous generation of the Seven Great Demon Kings hadn’t enjoyed this benefit because the Miracle World wasn’t fully conquered, and the Divine Abandonment Continent hadn’t been destroyed. The demonic qi polluting the world was only extracted once every thousand years, always exclusively enjoyed by the Demon Emperor; if the Miracle Saint Emperor hadn’t exchanged the entire set of the Demon Emperor’s Demon Artifact, this opportunity wouldn’t have been available to the Seven Great Demon Kings.

"Whew~"

"Whew~~"

"Whew whew whew!!"

Just at this moment, the array constructed by the Seven Great Demon Kings began to accelerate its extraction of demonic qi steadily. Amidst the whooshing sound, the demonic qi from the opposite side of the space passage rolled towards the Demon Realm.

The Seven Great Demon Kings stood on their respective nodes according to their sequence; the surging demonic qi was consumed by them, then expelled from their bodies.

Even the peak demigod-level Demon Kings couldn’t absorb demonic qi infinitely, so they only absorbed the most beneficial parts, while those ordinary demonic qi with "spirituality" removed had to be discarded.

Lynn stood quietly at some distance observing them without any action. In reality, Victor was still wary of him; though the Seven Great Demon Kings were merely extracting thin world power, it didn’t classify as closed-door cultivation and wasn’t feared being disturbed, if possible, of course, they didn’t want the process to be forcibly interrupted, as that would cause a portion of world power to be lost, and that stuff was already scarce, split into seven portions, disturbed further and it’d be insignificant.

Luckily, the Miracle Saint Emperor seemed very concerned about the purification of the Divine Abandonment Continent, so even when noticing the slight improvement of the Seven Great Demon Kings while extracting the demonic qi from the other side, he didn’t care.

The Divine Abandonment Continent was a region fully polluted eroded, the demonic qi filled to the brim of the continent wasn’t so easy to extract completely.

Even if the Seven Great Demon Kings used every ounce of their strength, running the array at full speed for a day, only "purified" one-seventh of the demonic qi in the Divine Abandonment Continent.

At this rate, even without considering distance, it would take at least seven days to clean the Divine Abandonment Continent, and the actual time spent would only be more.

The Seven Great Demon Kings worked for a day, Lynn and Victor kept vigil beside them for a day; seeing the efficiency was mediocre, the human and dragon both frowned secretly.

They weren’t particularly pressed for time, but sitting across from the enemy in a stalemate was somewhat awkward and grueling; it would be nice if the opposite was a charming Enchanting Demon (young Dragon).

However, they could only imagine; reality wouldn’t change because someone felt bored.

That is, as the Seven Great Demon Kings absorbed demonic qi and thin world power, they grew increasingly powerful, so both extraction speed and absorption speed slightly increased; fortunately, they completed the entire task on the ninth day.

During this process, Lynn relied on the fruits and snacks in his storage gear to go through the days, while the others were fine, the big loli got frustrated.

Although she had an endless source of energy continuously flowing into her body, she never felt hungry, but the craving problem wasn’t strongly related to whether she was hungry or not.

The natural environment of Demon Realm was entirely different from the Miracle World, so every piece of food Lynn took out was a novelty for the big loli.

Forgive this countryside demon who seldom left the Demon Realm, that looks delicious, that smells nice, that looks strange, I want to take a bite, and also that...

*Sniffle~~*

The big loli sniffed, showing a pitiful expression on her face, compared to leveling up by absorbing world power, she wanted more to approach Lynn and extend her little hand, then say—

Hello, can I have a little to eat?
