[At eighteen, Ye Yu reached the mid-Compound Stage, becoming a sowhat renowned genius among the demons here!]
[Although this cultivation speed was indeed eye-catching, it failed to draw any special attention from the big players.]
[The reason was simple.]
[Genius, you say?]
[In this world, there were countless geniuses—but they all perished on the road to ascension. Better to wait until one truly matures before making a fuss.]
[Of course, Ye Yu didn’t mind.]
[He lived each day to the fullest!]
Reflecting on it, this was the most earnest dream he’d ever experienced.
Ye Yu was truly working hard at cultivation!
Can’t understand the cultivation manual? No need—just read it a hundred, a thousand tis until his dream-gift triggered.
Likewise with cultivation: practice slowly, turning the demonic qi inside over and over, and effort would pay off!
In short: just do it!
[Under such effort, by twenty-five Ye Yu broke through the pinnacle of the Ascension Stage and entered the early Earth Demon Realm.]
(Earth Demon, Heaven Demon, Xuan Demon, Demon King, Demon Lord, Demon Emperor, Demon Venerable, Demon Sovereign)
[This speed was undeniably swift, but Ye Yu still felt unsatisfied—and it was in that very year that he prepared to leave the demon city where he’d stayed.]
[In fact, Ye Yu knew well that, with his dream-gift “Heaven Rewards Diligence,” if he could rely endure and let ti pass—thousands, ten-thousands, even millions of years—he’d surely stand atop the Demon Sovereign Realm.]
[But this tedious, ti-consuming path was sothing Ye Yu truly disliked—he couldn’t bear it.]
[For instance, from Ascension Stage to Earth Demon Realm took a full two years of empty sitting.]
[Such a huge ti cost made Ye Yu decisively overturn the table.]
If you can’t bear to sit, then don’t sit!
Rather than endure ten thousand—or even a million—years of agony, he might as well shatter this dream.
After all, this burden he refused to bear any longer.
He’d find another way to live and keep pushing forward.
[At most, he’d just treat this dream more carefully—and he refused to believe that beyond empty sitting, there was no other ans to ascend to the Demon Sovereign Realm!]
[When his father Ye Tong learned of Ye Yu’s plan to travel and roam, he offered no objection—only a warning.]
[Young demon, exploring the outside world is a good thing.]
[Currently, demonic qi in the Demon Realm had fully revived, and the five-worlds’ portals were officially open—but there were two places you must not go!]
[One was the Mortal Realm, the other the Celestial Realm!]
[The reason was simple: the Mortal Realm’s Heavenly Dao Lightning would kill anyone who touched it. You’re only in the Earth Demon Realm—don’t go courting death!]
[Too many young demons had already died in the Mortal Realm; your father hopes you won’t be next.]
[As for the Celestial Realm—that’s even more forbidden!]
[Demons and the Celestials are mortal enemies. Before the Celestial Realm is fully conquered, it is for every demon a land riddled with deadly thorns!]
[After hearing this, Ye Yu imdiately nodded.]
[He wasn’t rely humoring his father—he truly intended to heed the advice.]
[Neither Mortal nor Celestial Realm would he set foot in.]
[Why seek danger? Especially while still weak. Ye Yu simply didn’t want to endure endless sitting, but he had no intention of courting death.]
Once outside the novice demon city,
Ye Yu did not rush to roam the Demon Realm, but began gathering current intelligence.
[From the tiline, not much had changed since he first entered the dream.]
[Perhaps because no immortal who had visited the Demon Realm ever returned alive, immortals were scarcely seen here.]
[But there were plenty of妖仙 (demon-spirits) and鬼仙 (ghost-spirits)!]
[Their arrival wasn’t re sightseeing—those with intent had already begun trading.]
[As a result, Demon-Realm cultivation manuals from the Netherworld and Spirit Realm were already on sale.]
[Ye Yu glanced over them and found only rubbish—no genuinely good manuals at all.]
[It seed there were rogue rchants among the demon-spirits and ghost-spirits.]
[But that didn’t matter—Ye Yu wasn’t seeking those.]
[After three or four days of information gathering and observation,]
[Ye Yu finally found his target.]
[The Blazing Demon Hall, a newly risen demonic sect in the northern Demon Realm.]
[Though it lacked history, rumor had it its sect lord was a Profound Demon Realm powerhouse, possessing the strongest Body-Tempering thod.]
[That was what attracted Ye Yu!]
[Frankly, if Ye Yu hadn’t been here before, he would have chosen the fastest breakthrough thod.]
[But he was no newcor—he’d wandered the Demon Realm for many years.]
[He knew that demons’ greatest gift was their physical strength.]
[When fully ford, it could withstand myriad mortal Immortal artifacts.]
[He’d tasted its sweetness before.]
[So on this return to the {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} Demon Realm, he intended once more to beco a “hard man”!]
Otherwise, he’d feel insecure!
[Before long, Ye Yu arrived at the Blazing Demon Hall and applied to join.]
[Though his current strength was limited, as a newly founded sect there weren’t many requirents.]
[Soon Ye Yu successfully entered.]
[Hm, one must admit—the Blazing Demon Hall was indeed full of vigor!]
[Upon entering the demonic sect, he saw a line of a dozen or so towering Strength-Demons moving enormous Demonic-Weight Stones to temper their bodies.]
[Each looked full of life and vigor, a truly striking sight!]
[Leading Ye Yu was a pale male Heart-Demon.]
[He said softly “This is just a small demonstration. At dawn tomorrow, when all ten-thousand demons erge together, that will be the truly majestic spectacle!”]
[Hearing this, Ye Yu’s heart stirred and he asked in surprise “Our sect already has over ten thousand disciples?”]
[The male Heart-Demon smiled without replying.]
The upward curve at his mouth seed part roguish, part arrogant, part nonchalant—and the remaining fraction was pure mockery.
[Ye Yu’s expression grew serious.]
[He had thought this was a small sect where he might quickly win the sect lord’s favor and obtain that legendary Body-Tempering thod.]
[But with over ten thousand demons, it wouldn’t be so easy.]
[He’d have to work even harder to stand out among so many!]
[At dawn the next day, Ye Yu rose early, eager to witness the “ten-thousand-demon ergence.”]
But when he truly arrived at the training ground, his face changed in an instant.
Indeed, there was such a thing as overwhelming majesty!
