Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

Where do the Demon Slayer Alliance's foundation and resources come from?

This is something that makes Lin Bai puzzled.

The Demon Slayer Alliance has a complete and detailed bounty system, which requires huge resources and foundation to support it.

Similar to the bounty system, the Nine Nether Demon Palace also exists, in order to encourage and stimulate the disciples to kill the enemy bravely.

However, Jiuyou Demon Palace has enough foundation, and the contribution points obtained by its disciples from bravely killing enemies can be smoothly exchanged for needed items and resources.

But where do the Demon Slayer Alliance’s foundation and resources come from?

Could it be that the families and sects behind these warriors from other realms provided them?

But this is unlikely.

These families and sects sent strong men to the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect, originally to take advantage of the situation, and it was impossible to move the treasure troves of the entire family and sect here.

Lin Bai's thoughts slowly dispersed, his brows became tighter and tighter, and he touched his chin in contemplation!

"Are there local forces in the Seven Nights Divine Sect's territory secretly supporting the Demon Slayer Alliance?"

"And this local force of the Seven Nights Divine Sect has extremely deep foundation and resources, and the leader of the Demon Slayer Alliance is obviously hiding his identity by wearing a demon mask."

"His true identity is probably one of the strong men of this local force!"

"Then who will this local force be?"

"Fan Tian Sect or Worshiping Heaven Sect? Chunyang Sect or Phoenix Valley? Or is it the Qinglian Sect that has always remained neutral?"

After thinking about it, Lin Bai felt it was possible.

The Fantian Sect and the Baitian Sect originally wanted to seize the opportunity to seize the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect. They secretly supported the Nine Nether Demon Palace and made the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect more and more chaotic. They also specifically targeted the Nine Nether Demon Palace, which is reasonable.

Chunyang Sect and Phoenix Valley have long been dissatisfied with being subordinate to Jiuyou Demon Palace, and have already turned against them.

It is also possible that they secretly recruit other powerful people from other areas who have come to the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect to fight against the Nine Nether Demon Palace and increase their strength.

The Qinglian Sect does not rule out this possibility. After all, they have not participated in any battles so far, and the sect's background has not been exposed at all. They can devote enough resources and knowledge to support the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

"The Seven Nights Divine Sect is not excluded either."

"Although the Seven Nights Divine Sect is currently destroyed, the warriors who escaped also brought with them most of their background."

"But their chances are minimal."

"After all, this group of wolves and tigers from the Demon Slayer Alliance warriors originally came for this territory."

"This will naturally make him an enemy of the Seven Nights Sect!"

Since he couldn't think clearly, Lin Bai decided to try asking, maybe he could get some information.

Lin Bai asked curiously: "Where do your resources come from?"

The soul of the Hunyuan Daoguo realm warrior suddenly tightened, he shook his head hurriedly, and said repeatedly:

"I have no idea."

After he finished speaking, he was afraid that Lin Bai would become angry and kill his soul with one palm, so he added:

"I really don't know."

"There is a unique communication method within the Demon Slayer Alliance. You only need to set up a magic circle to contact the headquarters."

"We complete tasks, obtain contribution points, and redeem treasures in the same way!"

"After we exchange the treasures, they will send someone to deliver the treasures to the nearest city for us to collect them."

This is troublesome! ... Lin Bai shook his head and felt a little headache.

There is no way to trace the operation of the Demon Slayer Alliance. Even if we trace the locations where these warriors received their treasures, we will only capture a few small soldiers they interacted with. There is no way to trace the forces behind the Demon Slayer Alliance.

"It seems that this Demon Slayer Alliance is really not that simple!"

Lin Bai sighed softly in his heart and asked again:

"Do you have anything else to add?"

The soul of the Hunyuan Daoguo warrior suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly revealed some news about the Demon Slayer Alliance.

But these news were neither painful nor unpleasant, and could not attract Lin Bai's attention.

Lin Bai moved his lips slightly a few times, but did not make any sound. He secretly transmitted the message to Mr. Wen.

After hearing Lin Bai's message, Mr. Wen nodded slightly and silently walked to the soul of the Hunyuan Daoguo warrior.

"Emperor Lin Bai!"

"I've said what I have to say, and you promised to let me go."

"Emperor Lin Bai..."

Before he could finish his shout, Mr. Wen had already walked up to Shenhun and stretched out his hand to give him a firm squeeze.

He almost crushed the soul of the Hunyuan Daoguo warrior to pieces.

Fortunately, Mr. Wen deliberately controlled the power and did not directly crush the soul. He only weakened the power of the soul a lot again.

Weakened enough...enough for Lin Bai to use the soul-searching secret technique!

"For warriors with a higher level of cultivation than me, the negative impact of using the soul-searching secret method is greater."

"And it's easier to be counterattacked!"

"But there is no problem now. Mr. Wen has already killed this soul, so there should be no problem in searching for the soul."

Lin Bai was thinking in his heart as he stood up from the chair and walked towards the soul that had no ability to react.

The next moment, under the gazes of Mr. Wen, the Second Divine Son, the Third Divine Son, Daozi Yu You, and many high-level warriors from the Nine Nether Demon Palace, Lin Bai slowly stretched out his palm.

A burst of dark light suddenly filled his palm, covering the whole palm.

The dark palm slowly grasped the top of the soul's head, and the secret soul-searching method was activated immediately.

The life memory of this warrior in the Hunyuan Daoguo realm flashed through Lin Bai's mind like a comic strip.

"This is..."

"The ability of the Saint King!"

The second and third sons of God, Dao son Yu You, and many high-level warriors of the Nine Nether Demon Palace were stunned.

As high-level warriors of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, as sons of God and Dao sons of the nine major temples of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, they had naturally read the Saint King's classics thoroughly.

They knew very well that the reason why the Nine Nether Demon Palace expanded and became so powerful in a short period of time to unify the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm 100,000 years ago was largely due to the Saint King's strange ability.

The Saint King's ability allowed him to directly read the memories of any warrior and obtain the inherited Taoism, news, secret knowledge, and everything he wanted from their memories.

With the ability of the Saint King, the Nine Nether Demon Palace, which was not very powerful at the time, obtained a large amount of magical Taoism, wonderful knowledge, and various magic array pill recipes in a short period of time.

The Nine Nether Demon Palace expanded to the point where it could compete with the peak forces in just a few hundred years, and finally almost unified the Eastern Region of the Demon Realm.

Originally, the Second Son of God and the Third Son of God thought that this was a deliberate boasting of the power of the Saint King in the classics to highlight the Saint King's strength.

It was a bit unworthy of the name.

But now... witnessing Lin Bai's ability with their own eyes, the Second Son of God, the Third Son of God, and all the warriors of the Nine Nether Demon Palace present were stunned.

It turns out that this power really exists!

Even Wen Lao, who was the old servant beside Lin Bai, couldn't help but change his face slightly. This was the first time that Lin Bai showed this power in front of him.

Under the stunned gaze of all the warriors, Lin Bai spent about a moment to read the life of this Hunyuan Daoguo warrior.

Naturally, he also got his identity and origin, as well as the practice method, the treasures he owned, etc.

Lin Bai also confirmed that... this Hunyuan Daoguo warrior did not lie just now.

He did come from the territory of Wansheng Mountain, from the Yuan family of Wansheng Mountain, and he had indeed never seen the leader of the Demon-Slaying Alliance.

The leader of the Demon-Slaying Alliance did wear a demon mask.

In addition, Lin Bai had no interest in the cultivation method inherited by their Yuan family, and he threw it out of his mind.

"Sure enough."

"The soul-searching secret method is also useful for the body of the soul."

The reason why Lin Bai wanted to perform the soul-searching secret method here was to determine whether this secret method was useful for the soul.

After all, Lin Bai had never made such an attempt before.

When Lin Bai let go of the soul and the black light on his palm disappeared, the soul disappeared in an instant.

"Disintegrated?"

"Dead!"

"Sure enough, the soul body is still too fragile, even the soul of the Hunyuan Dao Fruit is still very fragile!"

"But that's right, after all, this soul was almost crushed to death by Elder Wen just now!"

Lin Bai was a little surprised at the demise of the Hunyuan Dao Fruit soul. He knew that the soul was very fragile, but he didn't expect that the soul of a warrior in the Hunyuan Dao Fruit realm was also so fragile.

Lin Bai then turned to look at the injured Nine Nether Guard team and said lightly:

"Your team has been severely damaged and is no longer suitable for patrolling this territory. Go back and reorganize."

The seriously injured Nine Nether Guard warriors knelt on one knee and responded:

"Thank you, Emperor!"

"We have already asked for help from the headquarters, and there are other brothers of the Nine Nether Guard to take over our work."

Lin Bai nodded and ordered Yunzhou to continue sailing.

It was obviously a wise move for the Nine Nether Demon Palace to dispatch the Nine Nether Guards to quickly build outposts in the surrounding territories.

If not, the Nine Nether Demon Palace would not know that the warriors of the Demon Extermination Alliance had reached the door.

…

After experiencing this incident, going forward, they directly entered the area covered by the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

Along the way, many Nine Nether Guards were seen patrolling the territory, but they did not encounter any danger.

Two or three days later, after crossing several states again, the cloud boat where Lin Bai and others were finally returned to the headquarters of the Nine Nether Demon Palace in Huanglong Qianzhou.

The First Son of God and He Gongji set out much earlier than Lin Bai and others, and they had already returned to the headquarters at this moment.

After emerging from the underground of the Nine Nether City, the Nine Nether Demon Palace did not make major changes to its internal system.

Under the current situation where the Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace is unrealistic for many years, the top management of the Nine Nether Demon Palace is still controlled by the three holy elders, and the Council of Elders discusses and decides major decisions.

The geniuses cultivated inside the Demon Palace are still in the way of the nine great temples.

The cloud boat slowly approached the headquarters of the Demon Palace. Lin Bai saw at a glance that there were a total of ten suspended islands in the sky above the headquarters of the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

Nine low and one high.

The nine islands suspended in the air represented the nine great temples of the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

And the highest island represented the emperor of the Nine Nether Demon Palace!

The imperial palace where the emperor lived was also on that island.

"You have left the Demon Palace for many years. I think this is the first time you have returned to the new headquarters of the Demon Palace."

"You still need to get familiar with it!"

These words were said to the second and third sons of God.

They are not only the sons of the second and third temples, but their families also have a considerable status in the Nine Nether Demon Palace. They still need time to get familiar with the new Demon Palace.

Lin Bai took Elder Wen and Daozi Yuyou with him, flew up from the cloud boat and headed straight for the Imperial Palace.

"Farewell, Emperor!"

After bowing to see off Lin Bai, Elder Wen and others, the Second and Third Gods entered the Nine Nether Demon Palace to find their families and residences.

The Second and Third Gods were sent to the Northern Territory many years ago, and this was their first time back to the new headquarters of the Demon Palace.

...

A huge palace complex on the island.

Lin Bai only took a glance and judged that this place was not much different from the Imperial Palace in Jiuyou City.

As Lin Bai walked towards the interior of the Imperial Palace, he told Elder Wen: "Elder Wen, I want to know all the news in the Southern Territory!"

Elder Wen was originally following Lin Bai's footsteps, but when he heard this, he immediately stopped and responded: "I will arrange it now."

Lin Bai said to Daozi Yuyou: "Go and call Li Guxian over, and tell her that I want to see her."

Daozi Yuyou then stopped, and after receiving the order, he immediately left the Imperial Palace and went to find Li Guxian.

On the imperial palace.

There is a sea of ​​flowers on the southwest side. Lin Bai is sitting on the edge of the suspended island, sitting among the flowers, looking down at the busy warriors of the Nine Nether Demon Palace below.

About half an hour later, Elder Wen came to the imperial palace with the eternal elders Yao Dao Gu and Zhao Fengxia.

Yao Dao Gu and Zhao Fengxia are the first eternal elders in the Nine Nether Demon Palace to support Lin Bai to become the emperor's son.

They also represent a force in the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

Of course, Lin Bai did not go into these things too deeply, nor did he want to know too much.

"Emperor's son, Elder Yao Dao Gu and Elder Zhao Fengxia are here."

Elder Wen responded respectfully.

Yao Dao Gu and Zhao Fengxia stood a hundred meters away from Lin Bai, looking at the back of the lonely figure sitting on the edge from a distance.

For some reason, they both suddenly felt a sense of awe in their hearts.

This is not awe for the level of cultivation, but awe for his identity.

It's as if Lin Bai at this moment is the real emperor of the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

In other words... Lin Bai has now accepted the identity of the Emperor's son of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, and has begun to exercise the power of the Emperor's son, while gaining the majesty of the Emperor's son.

Logically speaking, if it were still in the Nine Nether City, Lin Bai would still have some resistance to the Emperor's son of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, and Yao Dao Gu and Zhao Fengxia would never have awe of Lin Bai.

But at this moment, they looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces became a little complicated.

Lin Bai sat on the edge of the suspended island, and did not take the initiative to greet Yao Dao Gu and Zhao Fengxia, and the two immediately fell silent.

After Yao Dao Gu and Zhao Fengxia secretly exchanged some opinions, they bowed and clasped their fists and saluted at the same time:

"Meet the Emperor's son."

After hearing the sound, although Lin Bai did not turn around, he made some responses:

"Two elders, there is no need to be polite."

"Sit down first, and wait until the goddess Li Guxian arrives."

In this sea of ​​flowers, there are pavilions, stone benches and other items specially used to entertain guests or enjoy the scenery.

Yao Dao Gu and Zhao Feng Xia did not say much when they saw this. After they responded, they walked to the stone bench and sat down, waiting patiently.

After they sat down, they also secretly looked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai sat on the edge of the suspended island. The wind blew his hair and robes, but his posture was as steady as a mountain.

Zhao Feng Xia sighed softly and whispered to Yao Dao Gu: "Now he is more like an emperor's son!"
