Heaven’s Devourer Chapter 1534
Advertisement
After confirming the changes in Demon Immortal Realm as well as the matter of the demon emperor corpses, Wu Yu left Peak of the Granular Wooden Realm.
From what these demon immortals said, it seemed like the truth remained unknown.
All life from that time might well have perished in totality.
As to whether the cause of the genocide was immortal or ghostly immortal, it was all guesswork.
Of course, it was possible that one would be able to deduce the answer from the eternal demon emperor corpses.
Too much time had passed, and many of the clues in Demon Immortal Realm had already vanished. But it was possible that some clues remained on the eternal demon emperor corpses.
Emerging from Peak of the Granular Wooden Realm, he could not calm himself easily.
"So many years before, there was a great world, just like the 8,000 Sky Palaces or the 10,000 Levels of Hell. And it was completely destroyed."
Evidently, not many immortals in the heavens or hells knew about this matter.
Although Demon Immortal Realm had been sundered, but it was still vast. Finding Jiu Ying would depend on whether his immortal message talisman reply came.
Otherwise, he would have to count on his luck.
That would be like searching the sea for a needle. How could one possibly search the depths of a sea for a slim needle?
"In any case, we can't return to the heavens or hells easily. Might as well wander around here. We might even meet some demon immortal beauties. They would definitely have a different flavor from the immortal women!"
To Full Moon of Nanshan, this was heaven. After all, he was originally a demon, and he liked those as wild as he was......
"You're filthy. That's all you can think about all day. You don't have the slightest bit of purpose in your life!" Although Ye Xixi had already harped on this countless times before, she could not resist another round.
Full Moon of Nanshan was completely unfazed. "What is purpose? Before the mesmerizing figure of a swaying beauty? You won't get it, little girl."
The three laughed and chatted easily. They could not be as open in the sky palaces. Although this place was a little barren, but Wu Yu felt very comfortable. It took him back to their time in the mortal domain, when the three roamed about as companions.
"Eternal demon emperor corpse."
The one most recently found was from 40,000 years ago. It was from quite a time ago.
If not for his own digging, he would have to wait around doing nothing.
They were living a wandering, ambling life. Full Moon of Nanshan rode a great void immortal treasure level warship immortal treasure, cloaking it with his illusion Immortal Lord Realm technique. They moved without trace or sound through the Demon Immortal Realm. They took turns piloting the ship, while at other times they cultivated separately.

Occasionally, they would meet demon immortals or enter a larger territory, and they would pause to search for news of Jiu Ying. Or perhaps to keep an ear out for any news of eternal demon emperor corpses.
In the blink of an eye, two to three years had passed.
Before, cultivating for two to three years would have felt long, but now it was as brief as a flick of a finger.
Pondering some small problem, say the intricacies of an immortal design, and the time had passed.
Now they felt the grind of spending tens of thousands of years at a cultivation realm. It was arduous, and too difficult to reach eternal life this way. The demons here could not do it.
The paucity of immortal qi indeed played a large part.
Demon Immortal Realm was too huge, and there were empty spaces everywhere, that formed unreachable lands. It was said that many places had been sealed off.
Luckily, Wu Yu had cultivated Somersault Cloud and the Dao of the Void. To others, the void might be a forbidden place, but Wu Yu could enter it at will with no trouble at all.
To him, most of the void was still stable for now. Only a small portion was violently unstable, and quite dangerous.
With no news of Jiu Ying, there was nothing he could do but focus on searching for eternal demon emperor corpses.
After a few years, he began to specially seek out the sealed off areas of the void. However, even most of those places had been searched before, and held no more secrets.
This place's void had not yet broken before in the past.
The Demon Immortal Realm had gone through a length process of decay to reach the state that it currently was in.
Wu Yu could pass through most of the gaps in the void here.
This meant that he could uncover more than even the elite demon kings here, who were at the Great Void Demon Immortal Realm.
Wu Yu also seized this advantage to search the places which were inaccessible to others.
For now, he had not found anything yet, but he did not give up. He looked in places where others could not go, for treasures they would miss. It would definitely not be easy - otherwise how would the treasures have remained undiscovered for 40,000 years?
To do great things, patience was the first requirement.
Especially in the sky palaces, cultivation was easy. To reach eternal life, that was the real test of uncommon patience and perseverance. How else could one pass through the endless dreary and fruitless years?
Many immortals had cultivated hard for a million years, but were unable to find their own purpose. A million years without any results, all dark and wasted years.
Dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of wasted years were not particularly horrifying. But the prospect of one million years spent in dedicated cultivation, with nothing to show for it - that was the most dreadful of things in the world.

Wu Yu traversed many places, and 100 years passed in a flash. Still there was no news of Jiu Ying.
The number of demon immortals in the Demon Immortal Realm was few indeed. Occasionally, there would be a few demon immortals who gathered together to build a city, but that was a very rare sight.
In 100 years, he had met only a little more than 100,000 demon immortals. Most of them roamed independently in the Demon Immortal Realm. Occasionally they would participate in some events, but only to exchange their treasures.
Wu Yu had also gotten used to going most of a year without even meeting anybody.
There were actually more demon immortals than it seemed, except that they were all squirreled away and cultivating hard. Although their chances were slim, they had nothing else to work towards to. This was not an exciting world. All of the demon immortals worked towards the same goal - to becoming an eternal demon emperor.
That way, they could become a master of this place, as broken as it was. Perhaps they might find a way to leave in the future.
During one of the endless days, he came across another fragment of the void that had been well-traveled through. It was within an empty ruin, and Wu Yu had a tingling feeling as he reached this place. He had probably come to a place which had been completely sealed off, and no one had come to in a long time.
Although there was no guarantee of reward, there was at least hope. Many other places had more signs of demon immortals passing through.
Because this place was completely enclosed by void shards, it was extremely gloomy, and very little light passed through, swallowed up in the pitch blackness. Even with the Eyes of Fire and Gold, he could not see far.
Because he was in an unstable environment, Wu Yu did not let Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi out.
The pair of them had recently been cultivating in seclusion.
Wu Yu shrank his own body to the smallest and was on highest alert. A meaningless, yawning expanse stretched out before him. Sometimes there was land, strange islands or structures that were crumbling and ruined. From the ash and remnants in these places, Wu Yu guessed that no one had been here for at least 100,000 years.
He exercised his patience well, remaining in this dark hole for two whole years.
It was a pure gamble of luck.
Most of what he had done in his life had been fruitless.
Wu Yu was in a pretty good mood as he wandered around. Suddenly, he noticed that something on his person was changing!
Looking closely, he saw that it was the Ancient Demon Realm door!
The door to the Demon Immortal Realm.
Currently in the form of two pendants.
The two pendants started to vibrate, emitting a yellow light.
"What's happening?"
Wu Yu immediately took out the two pendants. He knew that the pendants must be connected to the Demon Immortal Realm somehow. Ancient Demon Realm and Demon Immortal Realm might even be connected.
If even the pendants were reacting, then it clearly indicated that something was happening.
Besides, to suddenly glow and radiate heat at such a place meant that it was connected to the location he was currently at.
He held the two pendants in his hands, and could feel them shake with surprising strength.
"Perhaps they're pointing something out to you!" Ming Long said.
"Very likely!"
Wu Yu moved the pendant up and down, and in all other directions. He would keep it in one direction for a while, feeling for any minute changes in its reaction.
Very quickly, he found out that the two pendants vibrated most strongly in a certain direction!
"Head this way? Perhaps there's a eternal demon emperor corpse there?" Ye Xixi asked quickly. She and Full Moon of Nanshan were alerted as well.
Wu Yu smiled. "Not necessarily. Nobody said that this thing is linked ot the eternal demon emperor corpses. Perhaps it's something else. Best stay alert."
Luck was not such a straightforward thing. He recalled that both doors had been guarded by corpse puppets, and now they were pointing him somewhere. Who knew what it would be!
"Well, take a look. Your escaping skills are unparalleled anyways. What are you afraid of?" Full Moon of Nanshan chuckled.
Wu Yu of course was on the move. His body now in its smallest form, he carefully felt out the direction that the two pendants indicated.
He knew that it was possible that they were guiding him to the eternal demon emperor corpses, but there was also a high possibility that it was something else entirely.
"If it really can help me find the eternal demon emperor corpses, they will be of great help to me when devoured, even if they are but fragments. This would indeed be a bounteous place for me."
But Wu Yu knew that life could not be that easy. When the going was too good, it usually meant that some deeper danger was lurking insidiously in the shadows, waiting to deliver a fatal blow to him.
Therefore, he could not let his excitement get to his head now. He had to remain calm!
He stealthily crept forward for a few days, until he finally reached a location where the two pendants were reacting very strongly.
His Eyes of Fire and Gold swept the front, and it seemed like there was a dark forest ahead of him.

Cultivation Anomaly
Follow the journey of an individual given a classic cheat trope in a cultivation world. What does a man do when he finds himself unsure of who he really is yet is given a cheat? What really happens to a cultivation world when it is overrun by MC level characters? Is the cultivation world just run by cruel young masters, short-sighted elders and uncaring experts? Note: Tags may be removed or added to this story as it progresses. For example, I added the harem tag because I wasn't sure if it would appear so be forewarn. Also, productive feedback is always appreciated even it may be ignored. Note 2: Original idea inspired by "Arrogant Young Master Template A Variation 4". I wanted to do something similar but have a more gritty realistic feel. The system SHOULD differentiate as the story goes on but if it doesn't it means I need a rewrite. Either way, read AYMTV4, it's great. Note 3: If you give criticism to be helpful, please try to be descriptive, specific, and focused on making my story better, not changing the story to how you would write it.

Life of a Core
After a disembodied voice had told him he was what amounted to an exceptionally talented rock, it had been hard to not let it go to his non-existent head. Until, random chance had decided to give him a square kick in the minerals. Which had in turn forced him to fend for himself in an unknown land, all while he attempted to make sense of his place in the world. Truthfully though, all he had really wanted to do from the start had been to bury himself a hundred feet below the ground and be left to his own devices. Yet, for one reason or another, nobody ever seemed willing to leave the dungeon-building core alone long enough to actually make one. Each chapter will average around two to three thousand words, the release schedule is still a WIP but you should expect the first six chapters to be released over the next six days. This is planned out as a dungeon building fiction, but don't expect it right off the bat! The story is a depiction of the everyday adventures (alongside an overarching plot) of what I imagine a dungeon core would experience when thrust into a random environment where everything and everyone tried to covet or eat him. I also really enjoy reading the comments and reviews people leave and would love to get some reader involvement with the story itself, likely through polls at the end of each chapter. I hope you enjoy my story! (If you feel like some of the characters seem familiar, you may have read some older work I wrote a while back under a different account. If you happen to be one of my old readers and recognize the similarities, I'm happy to have you back!)

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
