Rebirth of a Thousand Years: Entering the New Demonic World

At this time, Galantina seemed to be alive, but in fact she was like a walking corpse.

Hearing this, Galantina did not get furious as usual, but fell into a trance, with a vague image flashing through her mind.

It was on a small rock in a vicious sea, with roaring tides and surging waves all around, lightning and thunder, and dark clouds in the sky, and a disheveled white-haired girl was lying on the rock, dying.

The picture was broken, Galantina hadn't seen the girl's face clearly yet, and didn't know what she was doing. She just felt a sharp pain in her head the next moment, and she knelt down with her head covered.

"what happened to you?"

Ying Li helped her up and let her lean on his arms. She felt relieved when she felt the wisps of magic energy emanating from Ying Li's broad chest.

"I...I have been..."

Galantina fainted halfway through her words.

She was sent to the hospital, and after a careful examination, the doctor told everyone:

Galantina's physical condition is very critical. Her body is full of bruises and old wounds, and the demonic energy is running wildly all over her body. This coma has been going on for many years and cannot be cured. If she does not recuperate, a series of hidden diseases will break out.

Ying Li glanced at Galantina who was unconscious on the hospital bed, and became even more anxious. He wanted to know what had happened to her over the years?

"Can it be cured, doctor?" Wang Yi asked.

The zombie doctor sighed and said:

"It's difficult. As the leader said, her three souls and seven spirits are all incomplete. Even if she survived by chance, she won't be able to survive."

"how so……"

At this time, Ying Li walked to the bed and passed a ray of dark fire into Galantina's brow. She woke up with purple flames in her eyes and looked at Ying Li with a confused look on her face.

Ying Li murmured to himself, "No. I want you to have eternal life. As long as I am alive, you must live well."

"Ah! This is the Soul Fire Link? This method of sharing life has been lost. Who are you?"

The zombie doctor looked at Ying Li and exclaimed loudly in disbelief. He didn't know Ying Li's identity as the Demon Lord.

Ying Li didn't intend to say more, and asked him: "Doctor, your hospital is a place to treat diseases and injuries, but do you know where to go to treat a wounded soul?"

"Soul? This..."

A few days later, a small boat set out along a small river south of Lingpo Palace.

I learned from Wang Yi that there is a foggy death swamp in the southern foothills of Lingpo Palace. The living can enter but not exit, and no one has been paying attention to it for years. Only a mysterious sect has the means to survive here.

That is the Soul Pavilion, the demonic sect that studies the souls of the living and has the deepest understanding of the soul.

Wang Yi sent a shadow demon named Slanda to take Ying Li there. The train station was destroyed and the terrain of the East Continent was complex, so the only way to get there was by water.

The Shadow Demon is one of the few demons in the world who still calls himself a "demon". This Slanda has traveled all over the country for many years and is familiar with the topography of the Eastern Continent.

The tall man in a tuxedo, a top hat and white handkerchiefs looked like a human, except that his skin was deathly grey and the shadows beneath his feet emitted billowing mist.

Along the way, Ying Li asked him many questions, such as who is the leader of the Shadow Demon Clan today, where they live, and whether the Shadow Demon King Altros is safe.

However, Slanda did not trust Yingli and did not give a useful answer, nor did he ask about the identity of the unconscious woman Yingli was carrying.

At Ying Li's request, Wang Yi did not disclose his identity.

After all, Lingpo Palace is not a safe place at the moment. Even the Eternal Night Empire, which is stationed here in the name of protecting its allies, has its own stance and purpose.

Wang Yi suggested that Ying Li should not confess too much to outsiders easily. The world today is full of dangers, and even Brannet who came to rescue him is not sincere in doing good to him.

The Iron Blood Alliance and other Sanctuary forces had helped the Ghost Alliance before, but their ultimate goal was to exploit and oppress them. Once upon a time, the Ghost Alliance had countless remaining treasures of the demons, but in the end, they were all looted by these outsiders. The arrival of the Eternal Night is no different.

When the sun went down, the boat stopped beside a beach. There was fog all around that obscured the view, and a volcano could be vaguely seen in the forest.

For the first time, Siranda took the initiative to speak: "The headquarters of the Soul Pavilion is in that volcano. Further inside is the "Death Swamp", one of the forbidden areas of the Eastern Continent."

"How do you know this? Have you been in there?"

"It has nothing to do with you, get off the boat."

After saying that, Siranda got off the boat and headed for an inn not far away. Two black-clad orcs on the shore helped Siranda to set up the boat. The two sides didn't say much, as if they had known each other for a long time.

Slanda walked very fast, as if he was deliberately trying to get rid of Ying Li. When Ying Li followed him into the inn, the shadow demon had already disappeared.

"Am I beautiful?"

A woman with white hair, red skirt and holding an oil-paper umbrella came up to Ying Li and asked him in a coquettish manner.

I took a look at her. The woman covered her mouth with a mask so I couldn't see her entire face, but her beautiful eyes and curvy figure were all top-notch.

"Fortunately."

Ying Li answered casually. He looked around the entire inn but couldn't find Slanda.

Hearing Ying Li's perfunctory response, the woman became unhappy. Her charming eyes suddenly became fierce and sharp. She slowly took off her mask and took out a huge pair of scissors from behind her skirt.

She revealed her true face. It was a stunningly beautiful face, but there were cracks on both sides of her mouth that went all the way to her ears, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth.

"So, what now?" The woman's voice became shrill, and she was filled with resentment.

Ying Li frowned and said impatiently: "Put away your resentment, my wife is ill, don't disturb her!"

As he spoke, the majestic aura of the Demon Clan's supreme ruler overwhelmed the other party's resentment, causing the woman's face to change suddenly, and she soon collapsed to the ground, unable to hold on.

The pressure caused the entire wooden structure of the inn to tremble. The guests could not help but look towards Ying Li, each with a puzzled and somewhat fearful expression.

"You, you exactly..." Her body trembled unconsciously, and she didn't dare to look up and look directly into Ying Li's cold and evil eyes.

"Where is the shadow demon who accompanied me? Who is responsible for reception here?" Ying Li asked coldly.

"Ah, I, I'm responsible. I'm responsible for receiving you." The woman hurriedly got up, put on a mask, put away the scissors that she used as a weapon, and nodded respectfully.

The woman in red led Ying Li to a private room on the second floor and introduced herself to him as the proprietress Hongye, a hybrid of demon and human: the Slit-Mouthed Woman.

Silanda was a regular customer and had a good relationship with him, so he often helped her attract customers. But he was a loner and didn't like to communicate with others. He went straight to his room after returning to the store.

When Ying Li asked about Slanda's residence, Hong Ye declined on the grounds of protecting the guest's privacy.

After telling her other chores, Hongye said goodbye. Yingli placed Galantina gently on the only bed, sat on the sofa, entered a state of cultivation, and began to digest the magic power he had consumed during the day.

It took him a whole night to assimilate all the magic power he had consumed in the battle. Galantina's portion had long been returned to her with the "Soul Fire Link", but the undigested part did not improve.

This technique allows Ying Li to evenly distribute his magic power and physical strength to Galantina, which is equivalent to letting her share his life, but he currently only has the cultivation level of a first-level demon general, which is far from enough to support the life of a ghost king.

So Galantina woke up for a moment, but soon fell asleep again, and her critically ill body only improved a little.

The next day, Slanda took the initiative to come to Yingli's room and called him. To his surprise, it was not Yingli who opened the door, but Galantina who had woken up.

"Hey! Are you the little shadow demon who led us to this damn place?"

"You... cough! Why is Mr. Ying Li missing? It's time for us to set off." Slanda suppressed his surprise and asked about the business.

"I am always here."

Ying Li's sudden voice rang in Slanda's ears. He didn't know when he appeared behind him. He hadn't seen him along the way.

"Ah! Husband~"

When Galantina saw Yingli, she jumped for joy and didn't look like a patient at all.

"We haven't officially gotten married yet, so please don't yell." Ying Li frowned.

"Besides, you are still very weak, so try not to wake up if you can fall asleep."

Having said that, Ying Li was still somewhat relieved to see a lively Galantina. He didn't expect that she could really survive with her own will and that insignificant underworld fire.

"What's the big deal! You'll be mine sooner or later anyway, are you planning to abandon me again?"

"I never wanted to leave you behind. Let's go quickly. This trip is very important to both you and me."

As he spoke, Ying Li was the first to go downstairs. Galantina hurriedly chased after him, holding his arm and talking and laughing.

Slanda followed behind, looking at the man and woman in front of him, thinking about something.

After leaving the inn and crossing a bush, we arrived at the Death Swamp. Slanda introduced that this was the eastern site of the ancient capital of the Demon Empire, Youyuan.

Even Ying Li couldn't believe it. The east of the city seemed to be the territory of Black Sky Xiao and his tribes. It was hard to tell just by looking at it. This place should have suffered the most serious damage on the day of the catastrophe.

As rich and prosperous as this place was then, it is now as bleak and desolate as ever. The swamp banks and river valleys are still marked with the broken pieces of the past, and countless restless souls are still wandering in this cemetery.

Compared to the Mirage Forest, this place was just as cold and humid, but at the same time, it was more eerie and depressing. The forest vegetation was withered and decaying, and bursts of ghosts howling and wolves howling could be heard from time to time. He seemed to have been to this place before, but due to the geological changes over the years, Ying Li felt unfamiliar with it.

Along the way, apart from the cries of ghosts, the sounds of fighting became more and more obvious. Slanda was a little surprised. Who was so bold as to dare to come here to fight?

"We'd better not get involved. This place is dangerous," Slanda suggested.

"No, go and have a look."

But in the end it all depended on Yingli's decision. Slanda had no choice but to take the risk and change the safe route.

The visibility in this place is poor, and one wrong step could lead to being stuck in the mud. The path he is taking now is a safe route that he had already confirmed to be correct.

Ying Li used "Magic Sky Walk", but this time it was not for him to hurry on his way, but to expand the range and wrap the lower bodies of Galantina and Slanda in flames.

Then Ying Li shot a shadow in the direction of the sound, and the next moment Mo Tianxing's Nether Flame made the bodies of the three people disappear into the shadow.

"You, the Iron Blood Alliance, should not go too far! We are archaeologists from the Archaeological Association and are protected by the laws of various countries. You know the consequences of taking action against us!"

"Haha... When has our Iron Blood Alliance ever paid any attention to the law? We only know the law of the jungle. Hurry up and lead the way. We want the things inside!"

"Mo Tianxing" turned into a wisp of black smoke and floated on the nearby treetops to hide. At the same time, Ying Li was surprised to find that his Eclipse Sword was resonating, indicating that his fragments were nearby!

The Iron Blood Alliance again? They didn't even leave the Ghost Alliance's territory. Binghe, Miaomiao, and a group of people wearing archaeological uniforms were surrounded by the Iron Blood Alliance members, including Kevin. Wasn't this guy arrested?

Upon closer inspection, it appears that some of the Iron Blood Alliance are not humans, but a group of orcs with lush hair and animal features, and some of them are accompanied by real ferocious beasts.

"Isn't the Iron Blood Alliance a human force?" Ying Li asked Slanda.

"It's obvious that they are colluding with these orcs. Wait... I've seen a few of them before. They are from the "Beast Gate", and those are the elders of the Beast Gate!"

"Hundred Beasts Gate?"

Slanda nodded and began to introduce with a serious expression.

The Hundred Beasts Sect is a genuine evil sect. They commit murder and robbery under the banner of promoting the development of biological science.

They once kidnapped civilians of the demon race and sewed their body organs with those of foreign races, hoping that this method would allow foreign races to obtain the high-quality body functions of the demon race.

The decline of the demons was partly due to this group of lunatics. After the Cataclysm, the Hundred Beasts Gate emerged and began hunting down demons with weak combat capabilities for their cruel experiments.

Hearing these things, Ying Li couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and his eyes gradually showed murderous intent as he looked at the dispute below. As a demon lord, Ying Li would never allow such a cancer to exist.

Not long after, another group of people arrived. They were all wearing dark robes of various colors, with an air of immortals and a very orthodox style. Some of them held weapons, some held musical instruments, and some used whisks as weapons.

When the two sects met, the old man in plain clothes holding a whisk in one hand and the leader shouted, "I am the God-conferring Temple here, and you, the Iron Blood Alliance, are not allowed to kill innocent people."

Seeing someone coming to the aid of the needy, Bing He clasped his fists and thanked them: "Thank you all for your help. The Eternal Night Archaeological Association will definitely reward you handsomely."

Little do they know that no matter which road they are on, what they are interested in is not the lives of these archaeologists, but the decayed but epic tomb behind them.

Ying Li also felt that there was an abundance of magical elements here, and there was a long-standing spiritual energy of heaven and earth lingering on every dilapidated sculpture and every piece of broken wall. The fragments should be here.

"Haha~ We demon tamers have no interest in worldly things like gold, silver and treasures. We just want to admire this famous scenic spot under the guidance of you students. What do you think?" The old man expressed his thoughts.

"This……"

The leader of the archaeological team was embarrassed, but in Ying Li's eyes, this old man was a real hypocrite. He said nice things, but wasn't his purpose the same as that of the evil sect of the Beast Gate?

"This is difficult to do, old sir. We are here to conduct scientific research in the name of the Emperor of the Eternal Night Empire, and we have also obtained the permission of the Ghost Alliance. You should negotiate with the Ghost Alliance officials before you come to search for treasure."

"Ha! It's that damn Yongye again, you little brat! Do you know that Yongye is the public enemy of my demon world? Even the old Taoist priests in the Temple of the Gods can't tolerate those guys!" An orc said sarcastically.

The old man in the Conferred God Temple also changed his expression and said in a deep voice: "If your backer is Yongye, then I can only say that you are on the wrong side.

But to be honest, no matter who is behind you, we must seize this ancient tomb today. Inside is the aura of the "Erosion Sword", the sword worn by the Demon Lord thousands of years ago. Such a dangerous thing can only bring fatal disasters to you mortals, and only we, the demon masters, can make good use of it.

So... it is reasonable that you all must give way to me!"

After saying that, the old man waved his whisk, and suddenly the surroundings were in a panic. Several archaeologists who had no magic power in their bodies took a step back involuntarily. They felt a terrifying pressure pressing down on their heads. Is this the deterrence of the demon tamer?

"Hehe~ Well said old man, how about we let these nerds lead the way first, and then we can divide the spoils based on our abilities when we get there?" suggested a burly man.

"That's great, please take care of everyone."

Seeing their saviors turned into bandits, these archaeologists were completely desperate, but they couldn't defeat them, so they had no choice but to break the rules and bring these demon riders into the ancient tomb.

At this time, Ying Li was sitting cross-legged in mid-air, his eyes emitting dark flames. The shadow under him floated and twisted, vaguely connected with the shadow of the tomb, and returned to normal after a moment.

This was his exploration technique, "Dark Vision World", which allowed him to use his mental power to explore the interior of the shadow-covered area. He had already determined that his fragments were here, but the environment inside was extremely dangerous. It was a sea of ​​high-temperature purgatory fire...
