"Kill!"
At that command, Shadow Fiends swept across the void, drowning out the endless light and rushing toward Zhuo Canglang and the others.
Perfected Daoxuan slowly took a step forward. He had the bearing of an immortal sage, and his aged, compassionate eyes twinkled with astonishing brilliance.
He pushed out with his hand.
Endless immortal light converged into two luminous rings, vast and ancient beyond asure. Although they appeared small, they seed broader than the heavens and earth, more substantial than an entire world.
The void rumbled ominously.
Countless streams of Chaotic Qi cascaded down, obscuring even the Law’s Light.
"What is that?"
Ye Huang halted, his gaze fixated on the luminous rings before Perfected Daoxuan. He felt an unimaginable aura descend upon this space, an aura so powerful it made even him shudder.
BOOM! BOOM!
The rings grew increasingly radiant and fierce, igniting roaring Divine Fires that incinerated the entire void. They blazed like a true sun, their aura absolutely astonishing.
A vast and ancient presence spread out, causing even the mindless streams of void turbulence to retreat as if they dared not approach. The area fell as silent as a painting.
Ye Huang’s expression turned exceedingly grim. "A Quasi-Emperor Armant!"
That was the Mount Shu Immortal Sect’s sect-defending treasure—the true Sun and Moon Golden Wheels!
The pair in Li Xuanqi’s hands were replicas, yet they had still reached the Sacred Artifact Level, their power unimaginable.
And the genuine Sun and Moon Golden Wheels was indeed a true Quasi-Emperor Armant! Only a supre existence who had survived twenty-four Heavenly Tribulations and achieved the rank of Quasi-Emperor could craft such a treasure! The power of such a treasure was difficult to fathom.
The Sanqing Immortal Sect of old also possessed such a treasure. However, it was shattered in that great battle of the past!
...
The greatest difference between the Human Race and the Demon Race was that the Human Race valued its heritage.
Powerful humans, even after ascending to immortality and leaving this realm, would leave behind their many Magical Treasures and their heritage for future generations, strengthening their foundation.
The Demon Race was different. First, they did not highly value items like Magical Treasures and Elixirs. They considered them re supplentary aids required by inherently weaker races. The bodies of the demons themselves were already powerful enough.
For example, Ye Huang’s cloak was ford from his own innate wings. Their powerful ancestors would not leave parts of their bodies behind for their descendants. After all, what would they use for themselves?
Only Demon Race experts nearing the end of their lifespan, with no path forward, would ever consider such a thing. However, with the fall of a Demon Race powerhouse, their bodies would rapidly weaken. Even if a part was taken at its peak, without a high degree of bloodline compatibility, it would be difficult to make any significant use of it.
At lower levels of strength, such an inheritance might have a miraculous effect. But at the realm of Demon Emperor and above, it was still inferior to one’s own body.
As the saying goes: if it’s not your own, it just won’t be as good!
Of course, this did not an legacies were completely absent. For instance, ancient Demon Kingdoms passed down from ti immorial, like the Destruction Demon Kingdom where Ye Miedie resided, certainly possessed extraordinary foundations. But such cases were far too rare!
Any treasure capable of allowing a Demon Emperor-level expert to unleash power far beyond their own would, upon its appearance, spark a mad scramble. In the harsh Food Chain Hierarchy of the Abyss Demon Realm, ordinary demons had no chance to obtain such an item, and even if they did, they could not keep it. In the end, almost all of them fell into the hands of the Great Demon Kingdoms.
The only exceptions were treasures plundered from other worlds, like the Boundary Break Shuttle, which was clearly not a treasure that could have originated from the Demon Realm! But aside from these items with specific functions, what would happen even if you handed this horde of demons an Emperor Armant?
The Great Emperors were not fools; the treasures they left behind were not sothing just anyone could wield upon finding them. Either they required a specific activation art, or they were sealed with powerful restrictions!
...
The Ye Demon Clan’s foundation was not weak; in the Abyss Demon Realm, they were a major clan among the True Demon Ancient Clans. Almost every generation produced a Demon Emperor.
However, if they held onto a treasure comparable to a Quasi-Emperor Armant without turning it over, they would be walking a path to their own doom. It would not take long before their entire clan was eradicated. This held true unless their clan currently possessed a powerhouse on par with a Quasi-Emperor. Note that the key was ’possessed,’ not ’had possessed.’
Such was the order of the Abyss Demon Realm.
In short, Ye Huang felt completely on the defensive against the Sun and Moon Golden Wheels that Perfected Daoxuan had produced.
The Shadow Emperor’s expression was also grim. After observing for a mont, he said, "This Quasi-Emperor Armant is incomplete. It should be a set of two, one for offense and one for defense. This is only one piece, and it’s geared toward defense!"
Ye Huang’s gaze was as grim as deep water. "That’s the biggest problem!"
Even with Perfected Daoxuan’s Cultivation Level, activating a Quasi-Emperor Armant was no simple matter. The fact that they would use such a precious treasure just to hold back his group of demons clearly ant they were trying to buy ti for Zhuo Canglang and his people.
What is the Human Race planning? The implications are horrifying!
Ye Huang’s body began to tremble slightly.
