《Heaven's Devourer》Chapter 1596: Demonic Emperor Traps
Advertisement
Wu Yu and Wu Jun were obviously in the dark regarding the demonic emperors' plans.
They were currently keeping a low profile in Demon Immortal Realm, as they continued to search for eternal demon emperor corpses. This time round, they had a lead.
Wu Yu held the pendants which had transformed from the two bronze gates. When these two pendants reacted, they knew that they were near to the eternal demon emperor corpses. However, they had delved deep into void chasms a few times, only to find claws, hair, or other small bits.
Although it was scant, but Wu Yu devoured them regardless. It was enough for a few dao and cultivation insights. Of course, that was not enough to improve Wu Yu's level significantly, and they could only continue searching.
In this time, the entire Demon Immortal Realm seemed to have forgotten about them, and there was no news about them.
"Strange. Fathomless Starry Sea clearly saw us, and knew about us. How could everything have gone quiet? Besides, it doesn't seem to have attracted the demonic emperors' attention." Wu Yu was suspicious.
Everything was as usual. Too usual, which did not seem like the outcome that should be usual.
Besides, this peace in Demon Immortal Realm had already persisted for close to 1000 years after that encounter.
During this time, no demonic emperor had declared another bounty.
No news of immortals coming to the Demon Immortal Realm were circulating either.
"No idea what's going on. It's easier for us to travel around like that though. Better than being hunted down by the entire Demon Immortal Realm."
Wu Jun smiled. Although he too found it suspicious, he did not care that much. He was confident that he could escape from a demonic emperor.
Of course, they could not possibly fight it out. Even if there was only one demonic emperor, other demonic emperors might come to his aid, and then they would be in trouble.
The two continued to search in Demon Immortal Realm, while the others stayed in Floating Dreams Pagoda to rest and cultivate. After all these years, they had also gained some insight.
Another century passed, and now more than a full millennium had passed since the encounter with Fathomless Starry Sea. There was still no word of a bounty on immortals in Demon Immortal Realm.
As for Wu Yu and Wu Jun, they sensed a reaction from the pendants at this time.

The two exchanged a look, and then followed it. After passing through a patch of void and destroying several ancient design remnants, they reached a remote place after a few years. They found a piece of eternal demon emperor flesh, hovering in midair!
"Although this can't compare with the Apocalyptic Chaos Demon's head, but it's better than nothing. Should help me to improve quite some." Wu Yu finally smiled at seeing the flesh. These 1000 years had not been wasted.
However, just as he was about to step forth and devour the meat, Wu Jun's face changed.
"Something's wrong. There's an immortal design here!"
Wu Jun warned Wu Yu. However he was too late. A formidable great void immortal design rose up into the space, trapping both of them here!
This was an elite great void immortal design, more than ten times stronger than the Ancient Demon Dragon Perpetual Devourer immortal design. Once it appeared, the incredible pressure bore down on Wu Yu and Wu Jun.
"Actually baited by this piece of eternal demon emperor flesh! Seems like the five demonic emperors made a move after all. I wonder if it's all five of them?" Wu Yu immediately started thinking frantically after being trapped.
His face was somber. Luckily, the great void immortal design did not attack them, but only trapped them within.
Next, one terrifying presence after another began to appear. The first was Olden Golden Mountain, and then Unending Crepuscular Sea followed. Perpetual World Tree appeared in another direction.
Last of all, Dignified Lava Beast and Celestial Meteor appeared behind, sealing off their escape route.
All five demonic emperors!
Their real bodies passed through the void to the trap that they had set within, and saw the two immortals.
Their 1000 years of patient ambushing had paid off.
However, they were not over-excited. After all, they had all lived long lives, and built their composure over this time. Unending Demonic Emperor was the first to speak, being the mastermind of this. "Immortals, please do not misunderstand. We do not come with ill intentions. We simply wish to work with you."
Wu Yu had already prepared his escape, but paused upon hearing this. He wanted to hear what they had to say.
Wu Jun replied with a reasonable tone: "What collaboration do you seek?"
Even before they asked, Wu Yu and Wu Jun knew that they would seek to leave the Demon Immortal Realm.

As expected, the temperamental Dignified Lava Beast rumbled: "We want to leave the Demon Immortal Realm. You definitely have a way. Whether sky palaces or hells, we can go there. We are willing to take it!"
The Demon Immortal Realm was crumbling. Its resources were scant, the immortal essence qi was dissipating, and they wanted to get out more than anything.
When you looked at it that way, they had more or less been forced to lure and trap Wu Yu and Wu Jun.
However, Wu Yu and Wu Jun exchanged a look. They knew that such a deal was impossible. They had already had the conversation. Firstly, Wu Yu himself was public enemy number one in the sky palaces, and could not bring them over.
As for Wu Jun, he was not yet at the eternal immortal emperor level. Even if he had a sudden breakthrough, there was no precedent of bringing people from the Demon Immortal Realm to the sky palaces. He could not bear that responsibility. If he broke the heavenly rules, there was only doom and gloom down that road.
Therefore, they could not fulfill the deal.
Wu Jun showed a trouble expression, and shook his head: "Sorry, we cannot do that."
This refusal put an ugly look on all five faces.
Celestial Meteor immediately resorted to threats: "Don't forget where you are! If you don't take us away from Demon Immortal Realm, we'll take your lives away!"
As he made his threat, starlight glittered and his aura intensified. The power of a 9-heavens demon king immediately surrounded Wu Yu and Wu Jun.
The other four demonic emperors also pressed up closer, exerting more pressure on Wu Jun.
Although he himself was a 9-heavens immortal king, but the five of them made him feel suffocated.
Hearing the desperate rattle in his throat, Wu Yu knew that it was time to leave.
While they were not paying attention, he swiftly pulled Wu Jun into the Floating Dreams Pagoda and then somersaulted. This top-class great void immortal design could kiss his ass!
Wu Yu and Wu Jun vanished from right beneath their noses.
[TN: This is a figure of speech. Have you ever seen a mountain, sea, tree, star, or lava with a nose? Yea, me neither.]
The five demonic emperors flew into a mad rage. They had waited a thousand years for this ambush, and it had been brushed off as easily as swatting a fly. Their proposal had been completely snubbed. It was a denigrating experience.
"SEARCH. SEARCH EVERYWHERE! Search the whole Demon Immortal Realm, until they are found!"
The five demonic emperors screamed to all of their followers.
They had painstakingly set a trap to catch Wu Yu in one swoop, and so had kept the news to themselves. But now that the game was up, there was no need to be discreet.
The entire Demon Immortal Realm was swept up in a fervor......
Wu Jun in tow, Wu Yu continued to flee from the great void immortal design, not letting up.
Although he was confident in the Somersault Cloud, but he was still wary of the demonic emperors' strength.
"That was close. If not for your miraculous moves, we would be in hot soup right about now." Wu Jun heaved a deep sigh of relief.
"We have to be more careful from now on. The demonic emperors won't give up easily. They will definitely search thoroughly to flush us out." Wu Yu said seriously.
However, he had uncommon guts. He did not plan to leave. Not like he could leave in any case.
He had not yet achieved either of his goal here.
Wu Jun was of the same mind. He was ultimately a 9-heavens immortal king. They could bring numbers against him, but he would not back down. That was his pride as a Primordial Immortal Dragon.
Therefore, they continued to move around Demon Immortal Realm. They continued to hear about many bounties set out on immortals, but they were not afraid.
Many times, the five demonic emperors heard of their movements, but each time Wu Yu moved too quickly. By the time word got to the five, they were long gone.
This careful movement continued for another 300 years, and the demonic emperors were still left frustrated.
One day, Wu Yu had brought his "bronze gates" pendants to another place, and felt a strong response. It was more than 100 times stronger than its reaction to the Apocalyptic Chaos Demon's head!
"Oh? What's up?"
This attracted Wu Yu's attention. But as he poked around, he found nothing, nor saw anything out of the ordinary.
"Let's continue poking about." Wu Jun suggested.
Wu Yu nodded. He continued to follow the vibrations of the pendants, at the same time keeping his guard up against any demonic emperors' traps.

Unto Dark
A man of cripplingly ill mind, bridled with the spirits and regrets of the past. Wade Pierce trudges through each day of his monochrome existence, only as penance for his sins. Such a man is abruptly decamped of this world courtesy of unapologetic forces, left stranded in a realm filled with unknowns. Armed only with his potent yet fragile intellect, Wade advances into this new abyss, as he attempts to rewrite the wrongs he has committed. Plagued by vile beasts, self-righteous Gods, and even his own seething darkness, the cracks in his mind begin to spread and a dangerous, newfound power bubbles beneath the surface. As the world grows darker day by day, this unfortunate journey begins ------------ I suppose rectitude dictates that I should state any themes worthy of noting here. First of all, this story is not a sunshiny one in the slightest. Since it is listed under the psychological and mature tag and not the comedy tag, that shouldn't be a surprise. Next, morbidity is a factor and general apathy towards human life. All of these are common themes amongst other writers, so nothing new there. The story also contains consensual, and non-consensual sexual activity, although I have tried to be as tasteful as is possible for someone like myself. Finally, the pace is drawn-out, and the language is magniloquent at times. Not to mention, the chapters are quite lengthy. Don't expect to read this halfheartedly... Other than that, enjoy the story... There's nothing more important than that...
