Chapter 707: The Gathering of the Demon Emperors
Suddenly, Tang San suddenly felt a slight fluctuation from Crystalline’s bloodline imprint. She was stirring, as if she had sensed something.
"Hmmm..." Tang San muttered. Crystalline had originally hatched in the Hell Garden—was this reaction due to the influence of the garden's aura?
When he felt her fluctuation, a faint smile appeared on Tang San's face, and the image of that little girl who called him dad unconsciously surfaced in his mind.
As he noticed the cold-colored flowers beneath him growing in both size and number, Tang San knew that he was nearing the place he was searching for.
"Heaven and hell both exist in this world."
What he sought was the heaven within hell.
***
In the Ancestral Court’s Council Hall.
A faint silver glow swirled around; a wisp of pale silver light slowly separated from the massive Celestial Pillar, taking shape in front of the great column.
The silver light on the Celestial Pillar gradually dimmed, returning to its quiet, dark state, just like the other pillars that seemed to merely support the existence of the Ancestral Court's Council.
Mei Gongzi, dressed in a silver gown, sat quietly as the faint silver glow around her gradually receded and her aura became increasingly restrained. She now seemed almost illusory, as if she was no longer human but rather composed of countless pieces of fragmented space... or perhaps it was as if thousands of complete spaces were rapidly shifting around her.
"A peak-level Demon King. Impressive, I have to say. To reach this level in just half a year, it’s no wonder you're the champion of the Ancestral Court Elite Competition."
A calm voice rang out, and in the next moment, the dome of the Council Hall lit up. A faint glow descended from above, and in the sky, flecks of golden light swirled, illuminating the Council Hall and every Celestial Pillar down to the finest detail.
At the center of the Council Hall, where Mei Gongzi had last seen the Golden Mammoth Demon Emperor, a refined middle-aged man appeared. He was none other than the true ruler of the Ancestral Court, the Master of Destiny—the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor.
Mei Gongzi opened her eyes. The moment she did, countless silver light spots converged in the center of her pupils, finally merging into a single point. The silver light flashed and then disappeared, and her eyes returned to their very ordinary black color.
Her slender figure floated in place, her long legs standing firmly under the silver dress. She gazed calmly at the distant Celestial Fox Demon Emperor and slightly bowed. "Greetings, Your Majesty."
And from within those blazing flames, Mei Gongzi felt a cold aura, an unmistakable sense of loathing.
The Peacock Demon clan and the entire phoenix race had always been adversaries. The ancient struggle for the title of King of the Birds had left their relationship irreparably hostile.
This was the arrival of the Eternal Inferno Undying Demon Emperor!
The flames retracted, and the Undying Demon Emperor, clad in a luxurious dark red robe with golden patterns, stood atop his Celestial Pillar, gazing down at Mei Gongzi.
At that moment, a low roar echoed, and a murderous aura burst forth almost instantly. The overwhelming killing intent tore through the oppressive atmosphere, filling the entire space with an icy ferocity that was impossible to ignore.
Mei Gongzi felt her body relax slightly, and a warm sensation surged in her heart.
Atop a Celestial Pillar over two hundred fifty meters tall, brilliant white light brightened the entire council hall. A pair of enormous white wings slowly folded, and fierce killing intent spread unchecked. The cold gaze was directly fixed on the Undying Demon Emperor, showing no signs of retreat despite the height difference between their pillars.
The Heaven-Crossing Earth-Piercing White Tiger Demon Emperor was the second to arrive! His presence clearly indicated a readiness to confront the Undying Demon Emperor.
In the next moment, one powerful aura after another began to emerge.
Ranked fourth, the Unbreakable Sky-Splitting Demon Emperor.
Ranked sixth, the Eternal Night Sovereign Tenebrous Demon Emperor.
Ranked seventh, the Golden Radiance Mammoth Demon Emperor.
Ranked eighth, the Cloud-Soaring Sword Saint Demon Emperor.
Ranked ninth, Crystallizer of Heaven and Earth Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor.
The five Demon Emperors appeared one after another on their respective Celestial Pillars.
Among them, the Crystal Phoenix Demon Emperor's pillar was the shortest, at just about a hundred fifty meters. This indicated that, as a recently ascended Emperor, there was still a gap in strength between him and the other Emperors. Even the Sword Saint Demon Emperor, who was ranked eighth, had a pillar two hundred meters tall.
