Entering the cave mansion revealed an entirely different world within.
Each cave mansion seen atop the peak appeared to have only one grand entrance, yet upon entering, one would arrive at a unique small world.
The hundreds of cave mansions on Xin Hen Peak were at least hundreds of small worlds.
"Truly deserving of the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm, such grandeur,"
Chu Feng couldn’t help but exclaim.
With his current strength, opening such a small world was an effortless task.
But the number of cave mansions in the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm was countless, tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands.
Especially on Xin Hen Peak, most were newcors who hadn’t even participated in the assessnts yet.
This grandeur outshines all seven sects in the Nine Domains combined.
Inside each cave mansion ran a stream, not with water, but with the purest Spiritual Power, congealed into Spiritual Liquid.
It appeared to be diverted directly from a Spiritual Spring, the thick Spiritual Energy sourced from here.
"Let’s see what the heart demon of Xin Hen Peak truly is,"
Curious about the legendary Heart Demon of Xin Hen Peak, Chu Feng mused.
Surveying his surroundings, Chu Feng sat by the stream, closed his eyes, and began to slowly absorb the Spiritual Power.
The Spiritual Power in Xin Hen Peak was extrely pure, equal to at least a king-grade Spirit Stone in purity, and with a little refinent, could beco an emperor-grade Spirit Stone.
A vast amount of Spiritual Power was absorbed into Chu Feng’s body.
Five minutes passed.
As Chu Feng began his slow cultivation, suddenly a black shadow appeared in his mind.
This black shadow manifested, causing a ripple in Chu Feng’s mind, as if a repressed heart demon was about to burst forth.
"Is this the Heart Demon? The heart demon left by a Nine Tribulations Emperor of Xin Hen Peak?"
Chu Feng observed, and the shadow was a middle-aged man. From the back figure, it was evident that this shadow was once invincibly powerful, soone who had reached the status of a Nine Tribulations True Emperor, a peerless genius selected from billions.
Yet now, upon seeing this black figure, Chu Feng couldn’t feel its past invincibility, only a sense of resentnt, which after death had transford into a heart demon.
When Chu Feng began cultivating and gathering Spiritual Power, this heart demon would erge to hinder him.
In cultivation, the greatest taboo is the appearance of a heart demon, which can cause a Martial Artist to lose control, and even an emperor, when affected by a heart demon, experiences significant impact.
Indeed, as Chu Feng started cultivating, the heart demon erged to shake his ntal stability.
But Chu Feng’s mind was exceedingly resilient. Having lived two lives, his mind had reached an unshakeable state.
"Stop pretending! Show yourself!"
Chu Feng snorted coldly and suddenly grasped forward.
The shadow hadn’t anticipated that Chu Feng would be unaffected and quickly attempted to retreat.
But escaping before Chu Feng was impossible.
Chu Feng struck suddenly, tearing the shadow apart, revealing a middle-aged man from within the shadow.
Chu Feng understood, this was the Heart Demon’s true form, the shadow was rely a disguise.
"A Heart Demon King?"
Surprised flashed in Chu Feng’s eyes upon seeing the man.
Heart demons, born from everyone’s, every demon god’s heart and mind, exist as long as one is human, so there exists a heart demon.
Yet heart demons exist as a vague and surreal presence, rarely encountered directly.
Of course, there are nurous martial techniques and cultivation techniques that utilize heart demons as weapons, like the Grand Heart Demon Art that Chu Feng once saw.
However, that’s rely one of the weakest techniques to control heart demons, rely triggering the heart demons in a Martial Artist’s or demon god’s heart.
For soone with a mind like Chu Feng, such techniques are aningless, Chu Feng could slay his own heart demons at will.
Apart from invoking heart demons, the most powerful thod of utilizing heart demons is said to be extracting the heart demon from one’s body and refining it into a Heart Demon King using a special technique.
Once a Heart Demon King appears, it can control the heart demons of thousands, as in the Nine Domains, there once was a Heart Demon True Emperor who ascended through heart demon mastery.
When he achieved emperor status, he also extracted and refined his own heart demon into a Heart Demon King.
With the Heart Demon King, many ancient emperors dared not oppose him, as once influenced by the Heart Demon King at a critical mont, exposing their heart demons, led to certain death.
Later, this Heart Demon True Emperor provoked the Sword Dao Master, attempting to use the heart demon to control the Nine Domain’s number one at the ti, the Sword Dao Master.
He was subsequently killed by the Sword Dao Master, and the Heart Demon King captured and suppressed, then destroyed by the Sword Dao Master.
Chu Feng had witnessed the Heart Demon King, hence understood such techniques, and the middle-aged man before him was none other than a Heart Demon King.
No wonder Xin Hen Peak was turned upside down; a Heart Demon King, even without acting, could induce heart demons in the surrounding Martial Artists and demon gods.
Chu Feng even felt the stirring of his own heart demon within, but under his steadfast ntal strength, it was crushed completely, unable to affect him.
However, although both were Heart Demon Kings, the middle-aged man before him was entirely different from the Heart Demon King Chu Feng had encountered.
Because that Heart Demon King was forcefully refined using a Heart Demon True Emperor’s own heart demon and secret technique.
Whereas the Heart Demon King before him had no master, aning he was born on his own.
"It seems that the Nine Tribulations True Emperor must have been incomparably close to the transcendental level, hence his heart demon evolved into such a Heart Demon King,"
Chu Feng couldn’t help but marvel; such a person was indeed transcending the realm of Martial Artists.
His left-behind heart demon was enough to beco a Heart Demon King, thus continuing to influence for tens of thousands of years, as long as the Heart Demon King persisted, Xin Hen Peak would remain affected.
A Heart Demon King, no wonder the Sacred Dragon Secret Realm’s strongn didn’t want to provoke him, for even if several ancient emperors joined forces, attempting to suppress the Heart Demon King would likely result in mutual devastation.
The Heart Demon King was akin to a bomb, leaving him undisturbed might keep things peaceful.
