Demon's Diary

Meanwhile, thousands of miles north of the Central Imperial, Han State, the Grand Glacier Canyon was covered in silver ice all year round. Black mist was rolling indefinitely.

If anyone here had entered the Demon Abyss 10 years ago, they would be able to recognize at a glance that this canyon was the entrance to the Demon Abyss at that time.

Over an open space deep in the canyon, a yellow-faced silver-haired old man wearing a green scholar robe was standing in the air.

The howling cold wind made the old man’s robe flap loudly.

Above his head, a gray vortex about 30 meters in size was slowly rotating. Wisps of thick black air constantly emanated from it.

The old man let out a low and obscure incantation while launching symbols into the gray vortex.

For every symbol the old man launched, the gray vortex would expand a little and the rotation would speed up.

After a while, a low roar suddenly came from the gray vortex!

Immediately afterward, a huge dark red palm slowly stretched out from it, followed by an entire dark red arm behind it. However, the dark red skin looked damaged. Dark muscles and yellow fluid could be seen around the damaged areas.

Immediately afterward, another arm stretched out, then a huge head with eyes flashing white light…

When the silver-haired old man saw this, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. He murmured to himself:

“Very good! It’s about time now…”

As soon as he said that, with him as the center, a wave of dense white light suddenly flashed in the surrounding black mist.

…

Demon Emperor Palace, Kunxin Hall.

Above the central altar, Huangfu Yong’s eyes were closed tightly at this moment, and a purple light cluster was suspended above his head.

Liu Ming’s eyes flashed with purple lights. He could clearly see that among the purple light was a fist-sized purple bead. It looked crystal clear. It emitted a burning light, which quickly condensed into several feet purple cloud.

Huangfu Yong launched symbols into the purple clouds while chanting.

The purple cloud in the mid-air grew larger and larger, becoming several meters in size in the blink of an eye.

Huangfu Yong’s body also gradually shone. His body faintly exuded the powerful spiritual pressure of the Mystic Comprehending State. His expression became solemn simultaneously.

Liu Ming was startled slightly.

This level of spiritual power could not be matched by anyone except the golden demon corpse he encountered at the foot of Demon Abyss Tower.

And that golden demon corpse had already one foot stepped into the Eternal State.

At some point, Huangfu Yong rose above the altar. A large amount of purple flames gushed out from his body. He launched purple symbols into the statue in the center of the altar.

Huangfu Yupo and the other 2 Mystic Comprehending State demons also took action.

Huangfu Yupo twisted her waist and flicked her sleeve to launch a fist-sized light into the 4 demonic beast statues around the altar. Huangfu Zhantian and another silver-haired man did the same.

“Buzz!“

The entire palace suddenly shook, and a purple dodecagonal array appeared below the altar. The structure of the array was extremely complex. Every time the light flashed, countless demonic patterns flickered.

Moreover, each corner of the array emitted a finger-thick purple ray, which happened to connect to the 4 statues. Palm-sized runes emerged from the surfaces of the 4 statues.

At the same time, pure demonic qi emerged from the walls around Kunxin Hall and poured into the array in the middle.

In mid-air, Demon Emperor suddenly shouted and waved his hands repeatedly.

The purple cloud in the mid-air suddenly grew several times in size, covering the top of the altar.

The purple crystal bead in the cloud shattered into purple crystal particles. Most of them merged into the purple cloud. Some flew down and merged into the 5 statues on the altar below.

The five statues were ignited with blazing flames, and their eyes lit up red.

“Roar!”

With a furious roar, a human form phantom and 4 demonic beast phantasms flew out from the statues. The 4 demonic beast phantasms had human bodies and animal heads and 4 claws that were imbued with demonic flames. The human form phantom in the center was holding an iron spear.

The 5 phantasms roamed in mid-air for a while, then they flew into the purple cloud above the altar.

Huangfu Yong’s whole body flashed with purple light. A complicated demonic pattern slowly emerged on his forehead.

The next moment, the demonic pattern shot a purple light beam into the purple cloud in mid-air.

There were bursts of roaring sounds in the purple cloud. Simultaneously, the purple cloud began to squeeze and condense toward the center.

After a few seconds, the size of the purple cloud had shrunk by half, but the light emitted by the cloud was getting brighter and brighter.

Huangfu Yong, Huangfu Yupo and others all raised their hands high and shot 2 rays of light from their palms into the purple cloud.

As time passed, the purple cloud became smaller and smaller, more and more dazzling, and louder and louder.

On the platform, the family masters all stared intently at the situation on the altar.

The family masters of the 3 great families sitting at the front looked at the cloud in the air with a look of envy in their eyes.

Liu Ming looked at everything in front of him with a calm expression, but he was uneasy and a little confused in his heart.

If Mo Tian wants to do something in this ceremony, why hasn’t he done it yet?

He looked at the more than 10 direct descendants of the Huangfu Family sitting cross-legged on the altar.

Among these people, except for Zhao Qianying with her eyes closed tightly as if she was meditating, although the other people were sitting here quietly, they more or less felt uneasy and expectant. They were looking at the purple cloud in mid-air from time to time.

At this moment, the purple cloud made a loud rumbling sound.

The cloud emitted a dazzling purple light.

In the cloud, a huge purple cauldron phantasm flashed out and then disappeared again!

On the platform, the family masters of the 3 great families looked at the big purple cauldron phantasm with a strange light in their eyes.

“That is the Void Demonic Cauldron…” Liu Ming’s eyes also changed.

Although the big purple cauldron just flashed past, the image was deeply engraved in his eyes.

“That big cauldron, I think I’ve seen it somewhere before…” Liu Ming had a thoughtful look in his eyes. As he glanced at Zhao Qianying on the altar below, his body trembled.

He remembered that Zhao Qianying’s powerful magic weapon, the small purple cauldron that had played a huge role in Demon Abyss, was very similar in appearance to the Void Demonic Vessel that had just flashed by.

“It should be the imitation of the Void Demonic Cauldron that Demon Emperor forged.” Liu Ming guessed.

At this moment, the purple cloud in mid-air changed again.

After the big purple cauldron phantasm disappeared, purple light flashed in the cloud. After a moment, it condensed into the outline of 2 giant purple eyes several meters in size, but they couldn’t be seen clearly through the clouds.

A shudder suddenly arose in Liu Ming’s heart.

It was this feeling he felt when he entered the Kunxin Hall, that resurfaced again at this moment.

Above the altar, Huangfu Yong and others’ expressions became solemn after the giant purple eyes appeared.

As they chanted, the light emitted from their palms immediately became a little thicker.

The demonic pattern on Huangfu Yong’s forehead flashed and flew into the cloud in mid-air.

The giant purple eyes moved slightly, then slowly opened.

2 purple light beams suddenly shot out and landed on the arena below.

The purple light beams enveloped a handsome young man from the Huangfu Family who looked to be in his twenties.

The handsome young man showed a trace of pain after a while.

The purple light beams stayed on him for a moment, then they quickly moved onto the skinny young man beside.

The handsome young man opened his eyes with a frustrated look.

The light beams stayed on the skinny boy a little longer than on the first handsome young man, but they still moved away again.

“So that’s how the candidate is chosen.” Liu Ming thought secretly in his heart. Looking at the pair of pupils in the purple cloud, his thoughts were racing.

On the platform, most people had never seen this ritual of the Central Royal Family. When Huangfu Liushui was elected, not many family masters were invited to observe it as now.

Therefore, everyone seemed quite excited to get this rare opportunity.

Gaohe Rui looked at the purple pupils in mid-air with flickering eyes as if he was thinking of some idea, but after a moment he sighed softly, seemed to lose his interest, and closed his eyes.

Kongxiang Wu and the Family Master Long looked relatively calm.

Above the altar, the purple light beams swept over the Huangfu Family’s descendants one by one for varying lengths of time.

After the purple light beams moved away from a simple and honest middle-aged man at the Celestial State intermediate stage, they moved onto Zhao Qianying.

Zhao Qianying’s delicate body trembled. After a moment, a purple demonic pattern appeared on her forehead, emitting a faint light.

The purple light beams shrouding her body suddenly flickered as if it was responding. Some faint purple runes were looming in the light beams.

This was the first time that the purple light beams showed such changes. Huangfu Yong, Huangfu Yupo, and others were surprised. Especially Huangfu Yupo, she was surprised and joyful.

Seeing this, the expressions of all the direct descendants on the altar were shocked. Huangfu Jiangu even looked at Zhao Qianying with a hint of resentment and unwillingness as the purple light beams hadn’t moved onto him.

The purple light beams stayed on Zhao Qianying for a full quarter of an hour. Zhao Qianying suddenly frowned with a painful look. The purple demonic pattern on her forehead flashed and disappeared.

The purple runes in the light beams immediately dissipated.
