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.
