Rebirth of a Thousand Years: Entering the New Demonic World

Putting aside her complicated feelings, Galantina supported Qi Lin, and the two walked into a small house in the garden.

The surrounding gardeners returned to their work in surprise and trembling with fear. They did not expect that this imperial general who often visited the garden would lose to Galanthena.

This cabin is located in a remote corner and has been unattended for years. The walls and eaves are covered with moss and fallen leaves, and the weeds outside are more than ten feet high.

Qi Lin once told the people here not to clean up the area around the wooden house and not to tell others about its existence.

Qi Lin used the golden key to open the door, and a faint fragrance wafted to his face, along with drops of corrosive and pulling magic energy. That feeling was the aura of the Nether Flame Art.

The room looked ordinary, filled with old wooden furniture and covered with a thick layer of dust.

At the innermost part, there is a small wooden table with an oil lamp and a few plates on it. The evil aura comes from a square box under the table that is used as a footstool.

"It is this, I remember now, it is mine..."

"and many more."

Seeing Galantina rushing to get it, Qi Lin grabbed her and said in a deep voice:

"After you ran away from home, His Majesty put a seal on everything in your original room. If you touch anything rashly, you will be attacked by the late Ghost King Realm."

"That old bastard! Doesn't he know that it's the fragment of Ying Li's Eclipse Sword?"

Galantina said with hatred, she had already remembered. When Ying Li fell, the Eclipse Sword carried Ying Li's power and flew to every corner of the world, and one of them fell directly in front of her.

In order to travel through time and space to pursue Ying Li, she used the fragments to activate the "Life Spirit Crossing Technique".

But she had lost her memory and had forgotten about the fragment. During her more than ten years in the palace, she had no idea where the fragment was.

"Let me do it. This key is the key to breaking the seal. It was condensed by your majesty using his own magic energy."

Qi Lin squatted down, and sure enough, when the key approached the wooden box, a layer of light shield suddenly appeared, followed by a violent resistance.

Even with the golden key, it is not easy to open the wooden box, but Qi Lin will not suffer backlash.

Galantina asked in confusion, "Then why did he give you the key?"

Qi Lin stopped what he was doing, a gloomy look flashed across his eyes. "Yes, it was stolen and given to me by an old friend."

"Who is that old friend?" Galantina caught Qi Lin's emotional change, grabbed her collar and asked.

"This..." Qi Lin hesitated. She didn't know how the other party would react if she told the truth.

"Hurry up and tell me!" Galatina was anxious and shook her hard.

"It's A Jiao, your mother."

"Hey--"

The atmosphere in the room became heavy and both of them were silent.

After a long moment, Galantina asked, "Where is she? When was she stolen?"

Qi Lin shook her head, indicating that no one knew her whereabouts, but she did know some information:

“About ten years ago, not long after you left the palace, she sneaked in here, stole this box and gave it to me for safekeeping.

Then no one could contact her until the day before yesterday, when she sent me a message with injuries all over her body to let me know that she was safe and that she was looking for a new hiding place for her people.

“Is this true… Yay!!”

This news was such a great surprise that Galantina was so excited that she gave Qi Lin a bear hug. She was already seriously injured and vomited blood again.

“Pfft—really… let me go…! I’m going to die… I’m going to be strangled to death by you!”

Galantina snatched the key and activated her magic power, causing the gold color on the key to turn red, with a dragon pattern appearing on it, giving the feeling of a blood connection.

"Forehead……"

Qi Lin wiped the blood from his mouth and looked at her in disbelief. Could it be that the owner of the key was actually A Jiao? It might be easier for a relative to operate it than for an outsider like him.

This time, the key went straight in, causing the outer barrier to explode, and just fit into the keyhole. The box made a crisp "click" sound and the lid opened.

The shiny black metal fragments lay quietly on the cotton pad in the box. The refreshing fragrance became more intense, and the rolling demonic energy leaked out crazily.

Ying Li, Krablank and Han Jin, who were in three different locations, were startled at the same time and turned to look towards the garden.

Crablan: "The fragments are exposed. Only A Jiao and her own flesh and blood can open the seal. Hehe~"

Han Jin said to the four men in black who were half-kneeling in front of him, "Go ahead and intercept them at your respective positions. Show no mercy and attack with all your strength!"

On Ying Li's side, "Greed" was lying straight on the ground with his eyes closed and brows furrowed. Black smoke was coming out of his body, the grass around him was withered, and the flame hearts of the underworld were scattered everywhere.

Jack had been knocked down by Ying Li before, and was still lying there unconscious;

The surrounding "stomach world" disappeared. Although the roe owl did not fight with Ying Li directly, in order to avoid being beaten less, he actually took the initiative to climb onto the eaves and pretended to be dead.

Ying Li looked at the devastated surroundings with satisfaction, calmly comprehending the previous battle, the magic energy flowing in his body, and he enjoyed the pleasure of breaking through the Ghost King realm in one fell swoop.

The breath was undoubtedly from the fragment of the Eclipse Sword. The Eclipse Sword in his hand sent out a signal, but he had not seen Krablank yet and Ajiao's safety was not guaranteed. He had to move forward and might as well leave the fragment here for the time being.

Ying Li continued to move forward. He passed through the streets and alleys of the imperial city. The magnificent castles and palaces passed by like a passing cloud. He had no time to appreciate them because every blind spot was filled with hidden dangers. The fully armed guards and the Seven Deadly Sins were ambushing him at various passes. He could not waste time on these places.

Finally, in a fountain square, Ying Li sensed a presence that was as powerful as his own. Without hesitation, he dodged and left the spot immediately.

boom--

As expected, a transparent impact blew up a deep pit on the ground where I had been before, and the white pigeons in the square flew away one after another.

Then, another series of invisible and intangible auras attacked. Ying Li kept changing his body shape to avoid the shock waves. At the same time, he opened the "Dark Vision World" to the maximum and tried his best to find the enemy's position.

shuh...

A black curtain flashed by, and countless figures appeared out of thin air behind every sculpture in the square. As expected, there were heavy ambushes, and a large number of dragon people in black robes appeared.

As soon as they saw Ying Li's clone, they immediately used their own special skills to smash the "ghostly" clone to pieces. The only one who took action to defend was the original body.

"So strong, have you finally met an elite soldier?"

Ying Li praised that they could actually kill his clones in seconds.

The Ghost King Realm is a watershed. Every breakthrough at this level requires endless accumulation of magic power. A low-level demon controller is not even enough for him to fill his teeth. He must devour the magic power of the strong to make it count.

From the moment they entered the imperial city, the guards they met along the way were all ordinary people whose cultivation had not reached the Immortal Soldier Realm, while these Dragon Man Seven Deadly Sins agents were at least in the late Immortal Soldier Realm, and at most in the middle Demon General Realm, which was barely enough to "eat".

"Soul Abyss"!

Ying Li wanted to try out how powerful this move could be when he was at the first level of Ghost King Realm.

A vast black sea appeared out of nowhere, submerging every inch of land. A bottomless abyss appeared in the center. The terrifying gravity formed a vortex, dragging everything in it and swallowing it up.

"Oh my god, this guy... is totally lawless and has no bottom line. However, he is just to my taste. You guys withdraw, I am enough!"

On a high tower, "Seven Deadly Sins - Wrath" sighed as he looked at the terrifying vortex below.

A group of miserable dragon people gathered behind him. The moment "Soul Abyss" appeared, he used his own means to rescue his subordinates. It seems that the human wave tactics have long lost their meaning against this person, even if it is an elite force that is much stronger than the Royal Guards.

"Angry, I see you, if you want to deal with me, come down quickly, I'm in a hurry."

Ying Li shouted loudly, and his cold and arrogant voice swept across all the nearby buildings. A terrifying aura descended from the sky, which was the true power of the Ghost King.

There were many buildings nearby, and the royal family members with low cultivation were hiding in the depths of their respective palaces. They covered their ears in fear, praying that Ying Li would quickly withdraw his magical powers, and complained even more about the masters in the palace. Hurry up and cure this demon!

"Huh! This bastard. Do you look down on me?"

boom--

He charged towards Ying Li with all his might in anger, using his brute force to break through all the walls between the two of them, and landed in front of Ying Li.

With a mad aura coming towards him, he shouted loudly:

"You're so arrogant right after breaking through the Ghost King Realm? I should have fought you last time on Sandros Island!"

Ying Li did not refute, but just laughed: "Humph~ I thought you only dared to attack from a distance!"

"you wanna die!"

Fury was enraged by Ying Li's two words, and rushed over with his fangs and claws bared. The simple and unpretentious sprint carried an amazing aura, which made Ying Li dare not neglect it. He restrained his smile and showed the Ghost Eclipse Sword to meet the opponent.

As the representative of the sin of "anger", he exuded endless rage from beginning to end. He attacked Ying Li with a thunderous force. His hands had empty claws and the surrounding air was cracked under the distortion and compression of the silver aura, and he attacked Ying Li with fists and feet.

The "Sea of ​​Sparks" and the "Shadow Lock" appeared at the same time. It seemed like an attack like a dragnet, but it was torn apart by anger in a few seconds. The sound of breaking air passed by Ying Li's side, and a gash was fiercely opened on his waist.

"It's not over yet!"

Anger flashed behind Ying Li at an extremely fast speed, and the hand knife with silver light slashed at the back of Ying Li's neck. The biting coldness made Ying Li react in advance, and "Magic Sky Walk" was activated.

The move that had just been dodged was immediately repeated at the point where Ying Li had moved, still with the same sense of crisis. It seemed that the opponent's attack always had a tracking nature, so he would counterattack.

"Blade Tide"!

"Oh?"

A huge sword wind came towards him, and Anger also felt the crisis of not being able to underestimate the enemy. He suddenly braked the attack that was about to hit Ying Li, and immediately showed a pair of dark swords, making a cross posture in front of his chest.

When the "Blade Tide" touched the point where the two swords were combined, it was immediately split into two, and the high tower where he had been before was split in half by the whistling slash.

"Good block, what's the name of your weapon?"

Ying Li flew over and attacked, then shot out a series of "Ghost Embers" fireballs to chase him, while trying to stay as close to the opponent as possible, and launching "Ghost Embers" to seize his magic power whenever he had the chance.

"The dark green one is called 'night', and the blue one is called 'fluorescein'!"

Anger did not seem flustered. While introducing his beloved sword, he fought hand-to-hand with Ying Li with ease. Transparent magic power appeared and disappeared near the two of them, like a sniper constantly firing cold shots and launching sneak attacks from time to time.

Ying Li rushed towards the opponent head-on, using the flexibility of "Sea of ​​Sparks" to deal with those transparent coordinated attacks, but unexpectedly the strange magic power changed from offense to defense.

They all came together and formed a thin film around Anger, blocking a series of attacks.

"Ghost Embers" was like a drop in the ocean, sinking into a transparent quagmire and never to return. Ying Li read a kind of unpredictable restlessness from the few strands of magic energy that he easily absorbed. It was originally very weak, but once it was stimulated by the outside world, it became more ferocious.

"Humph! This is not a good performance. Going deep into the palace is like committing suicide."

The opponent suddenly withdrew his skills and gave Ying Li a playful and mocking look.

Ying Li was very confused by the angry magic power, which was an attribute he had never encountered before.

After a few rounds of fighting, he could roughly judge that the opponent's strength was no less than that of Mo Cha, who was in the late Ghost King realm, but he would not be afraid of being beaten to death.

"You don't seem to want to kill me. Besides, I am here to discuss something important with Crablan and Han Jin."

"Humph! But the master just changed his mind. He wants us, the Seven Deadly Sins, to use our full strength. With your level of the first level of the Ghost King Realm, you are not worthy of moving forward!"

The air suddenly became heavy, and a fierce light flashed in the angry eyes. Then the person disappeared, leaving only the voice floating in the sky.

"Heart-burning catastrophe!"

Ying Li snorted coldly. He had fought countless battles in his life. No matter in the past or now, he never judged strength by appearance of cultivation, and he never expected to fight with an opponent of equal strength.

"We'll know whether we're worthy of him or not after we finish the fight... The second move of the Netherworld Sword Technique - "Sky Embers"!"

The sense of crisis has skyrocketed to an unprecedented level. Although he has lost his target, the "dark vision world" has already seen through everything.

The Eclipse Sword pointed at the sky, and the sky suddenly changed. Vast magic power gathered above the forest, and purple-black fire rain poured down from the sky, indiscriminately washing every inch of the earth—

Anger moved at high speed in the void, constantly dodging the magic weapons wrapped in dark flames. His wrists, which were emitting hot white light, turned red, as if a terrifying force was constantly accumulating.

Ying Li roughly understood a little bit. It seemed that he could stimulate the strength of his own magic power through contact attacks in battle, commonly known as "the more you fight, the braver you become." After the enemy has already determined his angry strength, he would suddenly give him an unexpected blow, which is hard to defend against.

At this moment, Ying Li discovered that the speed of his anger was getting faster and faster after each dodge, and finally even the "Dark Vision World" could hardly capture his figure.

puff--

The hot hand blade penetrated Ying Li's body like a thumbtack into a wall, leaving no unnecessary damage. After the hand was pulled out, the pierced part showed a neat bloody hole.

But at the moment he hit Ying Li, Ying Li also hit him without deviation. The protective shield was instantly shattered, and a dark flame spear pierced through his chest.

At this moment, Ying Li felt nothing but shock in his heart. He had underestimated the other party. It turned out that the leader of the Seven Deadly Sins was not good enough to actually hurt him.

"Hey! You... are really hard to deal with. But the enemies behind us will become stronger and stronger. Do you really want to keep going?"

After saying this, the magic of "anger" disappeared and he fell heavily to the ground.

Ying Li, who had a "ventilation hole" opened in the upper part of his chest, was now pale, with blood constantly oozing from the wound and the corners of his mouth, but his trembling body always showed that he was trying to stay standing.

It seemed that the two hit each other at the same time and the result was a draw, but once the opponent was hit by the Nether Flame, most of his magic power would be devoured in a very short time, and Ying Li would get this supply, and the outcome would instantly become one-sided.

"Well...you...want me to give up?" Ying Li probably guessed something.

"Not completely. I don't understand these little tricks. Please go ahead."

After saying that, he slowly closed his eyes. He was exhausted by the monster Ying Li and just wanted to sleep.

Ying Li nodded, walked around him and prepared to leave, but the other party opened his eyes and said:

"Also... I enjoyed the fight very much, I will beat you next time. My real name is Zi Yan. I should address you as Lord Demon, I am from the Fire Demon Clan."

"Oh?"
