Chapter 45 The whole court was shocked, the Qin family's ancestor was so terrifying! "What did you say? The Sky-Swallowing Demon King!?" When Crown Prince Li Chengqian heard this, his face suddenly changed. He stood up abruptly and looked at the eunuch who reported the news in disbelief. He asked in shock, "Are you talking about the Sky-Swallowing Demon King, one of the Ten Ancient Evils who disappeared a thousand years ago?" Emperor Xia's face also darkened and his brows furrowed. It was obvious that he had not expected that the Sky-Swallowing Demon King, one of the greatest evils in ancient times, would appear. A thousand years ago, the Sky-Devouring Demon King poisoned all living things. No one knows how many people of the Great Xia died at his hands. Emperor Xia had not yet been born at that time, but he had also heard of the name of the Sky-Devouring Demon King. When the civil and military officials in the Martial Saint Palace heard this, their faces suddenly changed. They were extremely shocked, their whole bodies trembled, and there was a trace of fear in their eyes. The ancient evil has appeared again! Moreover, he swallowed up 150,000 Purple Dragon Guards in one gulp! Those are the Purple Dragon Guards, and there are a total of 150,000 of them! The Purple Dragon Guards are feared like tigers by everyone in the court. They were extremely powerful and had been granted great power by Emperor Xia. The 150,000 of them were the entire Purple Dragon Guards. Someone once said that these 150,000 guards could at least compete with an army of the same level as the 500,000 Yang Family Army.
After all, only the most elite soldiers are qualified to join the Purple Dragon Guards. But now it was swallowed up by the big beast in one gulp. The Sky-Devouring Demon King is so terrifying. This is obviously more terrifying than the legend. Although the legendary Sky-Devouring Demon King is powerful, he is far from being able to swallow up 150,000 Purple Dragon Guards in one breath! The messenger eunuch prostrated himself on the ground, trembling as he said, "Your Highness, it is indeed the Heaven Devouring Demon King. Most of the cultivators who went to the Southern Frontier Prefecture have seen this, and it is definitely not a lie." Li Chengqian said in horror: "Didn't the Sky Devouring Demon King disappear a thousand years ago? How come he appears at this time? Could it be... because of the Qin family's ancestor again?" At this time, the messenger eunuch seemed to have thought of something, and he said, "When the Devouring Sky Demon King devoured 150,000 Purple Dragon Guards, he once said that it was only because Your Majesty had unlocked their seal that they were able to come out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains." "Your Highness?" Li Chengqian was shocked and said, "Could it be that the Qin family's ancestor is really that? If so, then the Qin family's ancestor... is he a little too scary?" When these words were spoken, all the officials looked shocked. Those who had nothing to do with the Qin family and took a neutral stance were secretly thankful that they did not add insult to injury when the Qin family was in the most dangerous time. Otherwise, they would probably have been retaliated by the Qin family's ancestor, right? As for those who had some grudges against the Qin family, even if they did not add insult to injury this time, they were still trembling with fear and extremely frightened. But they still find it hard to believe. How could the Qin family's ancestor be so terrifying! Even the Sky-Swallowing Demon King, one of the ten ancient evil spirits, was sealed by him and obeyed his orders. Now he left the Shiwan Mountains and entered the territory of Daxia, like a wolf entering a flock of sheep. Is that human being? Such a terrifying existence. Could it be the legendary god? All the officials felt that Emperor Xia's decision this time was extremely reckless and was simply pushing the Great Xia Kingdom into the abyss. It is possible to fall into the abyss at any time, causing the entire Daxia Kingdom to be doomed. Emperor Xia's face looked somewhat gloomy. He raised his hand and waved, asking the eunuch who had brought the message to leave.
Civil and military officials dared not to breathe a word, and one could hear a pin drop in the entire Martial Saint Palace. "Qian'er, take this and go to Fengling Cave to ask an old ancestor to come out." Emperor Xia's expression gradually returned to calm. With a wave of his hand, a purple-gold token fell into Li Chengqian's hand. Seeing the purple-gold token and the words said by Emperor Xia, everyone's face changed, including Li Chengqian. The purple-gold token is called the Heavenly Dragon Token. In the Great Xia Dynasty, it was a token symbolizing supreme authority. It is generally not taken out easily. There are two rumors about Fengling Cave in the Great Xia Imperial City. The first rumor is that this place is the resting place of many ancestors of the Great Xia Imperial Family, and the remains of many ancestors of the Great Xia Imperial Family are buried there. The second rumor is completely different. It says that the ancestors of Daxia are not dead, but exist in Fengling Cave in a special form. When the Daxia royal family is facing life and death, the ancestors of Daxia will be invited out. It seems now. The second rumor is more credible. Civil and military officials were also silent. From this perspective, has Daxia reached a critical moment of life and death? Or is it that no one is able to deal with the terrifying Sky-Devouring Demon King? But now the Sky-Devouring Demon King is just a big demon in the Ten Thousand Mountains. If all the other monsters in the Shiwan Mountains leave, how will they respond? Li Chengqian held the token and breathed a little quickly, just like the other civil and military officials. Thought of this. Could it be that Daxia is facing a moment of life and death? He was silent for a moment, then took the order and left the Wusheng Palace. "Go down." Emperor Xia waved his hand and dismissed the court meeting. No civil or military official dared to say anything, and they all left the Martial Saint Palace obediently. As the civil and military officials left, Emperor Xia's face turned completely gloomy. "What a great Qin family ancestor!" Emperor Xia spoke in a cold tone, "I want to see how much impact a mere Hundred Thousand Mountains can have on my country. Even if you are in the Dark Void Realm, I... am not afraid of you." After the Spiritual Questioning Realm is the Youyi Realm. But few people know that, even some powerful people in the ninth level of the Spiritual Questioning Realm do not know that after the Youyi Realm is another completely new realm, the Dark Void Realm. The beings in the Dark Void Realm are already as powerful as gods and ghosts, and are proficient in all kinds of strange and magical methods. Emperor Xia knew that the Dark Void Realm actually existed in this world. But everyone in the Dark Void Realm is a hidden powerful being, and they simply don’t bother to break through the void and ascend to the upper realms.
Some of the powerful beings in the Dark Void Realm even came down from the upper realms. Emperor Xia knew all of this. It's just that he didn't say it. In his opinion, no matter how powerful Qin Li was, it was already extraordinary for him to reach the Dark Void Realm. But...even if it was the Dark Void Realm, he was not afraid. Thinking of this, Emperor Xia's eyes flickered, and strange ripples flashed in his eyes. It was as if his eyes had disappeared in the previous moment, becoming unreal and real, true and false. Very weird. And at the same time. Li Chengqian has come to the outside of Feng Lingdong with the purple-gold Tianlong Order. He doesn't dare to go in because no one dares to provoke the existence inside. Once a prince accidentally entered and never came out again. But Emperor Xia simply chose to ignore it. Since then, Fengling Cave has become a forbidden area for the royal family of Daxia. (End of this chapter)
