Chapter 1286: Devil Mountain

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The Myriad Devil Islands was like an independent stand-alone world, ruled by the Myriad Devil Sovereign.

The Myriad Devil Sovereign was merely a title. No one on the outside knew who it was who first established the devil islands, and if the Myriad Devil Sovereign was a single person, or a title passed down the generations.

The Myriad Devil Sovereign was like the god of the Myriad Devil Islands, with the faith and belief of everyone who lived on the islands.

On the Myiard Devil Islands, the place where the sovereign was rumored to be at, was none other than the legendary ground – the Devil Mountain!

There were many places on the Myriad Devil Islands with the name Devil Mountain but as for the Devil Mountain of the legends, there was only one. This towering Devil Mountain was something carved out by the Myriad Devil Sovereign himself. It?s an incredibly lofty place and to many people living there, it was a place of legends.

The reason why the Myriad Devil Islands were able to prohibit immortal emperors from entering and cause some trepidation to them was all because of this legendary place, the Devil Mountain!

The Devil Mountain, just that Devil Mountain, seemed to have always existed. Everyone could see it, but nobody could reach it.

Every year, every month, every day, there would be people dying on the journey over to there.

At this moment at the foot of the Devil Mountain, several figures could be seen. Their eyes were all on the horizons, staring at that phantom-like misty Devil Mountain. It seemed just right before their eyes, yet it felt as far as the heavens and there was only a single path leading to it. The path of seeking the devil… this path has buried an unknown amount of geniuses but there would still be everyone attempting it everyday, wanting to reach the legendary mountain.

Naturally, since there was a path there, it was destined that someone would succeed eventually.

In the air, within the mountain gate of the Devil Mountain, this legendary place didn?t seem to be any different from the external world. There were imposing devil halls everywhere and the atmosphere was immensely solemn.

One of the devil halls exuded a simple and ancient aura. However, the feeling it gave was actually extremely peaceful, without a hint of the tyranny of the devil path.

And just outside this devil palace, many figures were respectfully kneeling there. The identities of these people would cause everyone to stand up in shock in the external world, many of them were peak geniuses of the Myriad Devil Islands and there were even descendants of extremely powerful devil emperors.

But it was precisely these people who came all the way here and were kneeling down right now. Nobody felt it was strange, everyone knew that it was only natural because this place was the Devil Mountain, the legendary place which was the closest to the Myriad Devil Sovereign.

This Devil Mountain was the totem of faith for everyone on the Myriad Devil Islands.

“You guys must have come to the wrong place.” At this moment, a figure appeared, standing on the stairway leading up to the devil hall. His looks were ordinary, and his clothing was simple. But just a glance at him would cause you to be unable to forget him simply because his demeanor was simply too outstanding.

One?s demeanor was naturally formless, indescribable and unexplainable but this young man in simple clothing had that certain gravitas to his demeanor. By standing there, he seemed extremely common, but then again, not at all.

“This devil hall doesn?t accept disciples.” The young man smiled. His voice was very gentle, like the wind and clouds, as he spoke to the kneeling people.

“Please guide us.” One among those who were kneeling stood up and spoke.

“Since you all managed to enter the Devil Mountain, it means that you all have fate here. However, your destiny clearly doesn?t lie in this devil hall. You all should go to the Sky Devil Hall instead, you might like things there.” The young man smiled. The eyes of everyone flashed, and after that, they prostrated themselves, “Many thanks.”

After that, they left the nearby area and headed off directly.

Since there was someone who came out and said they had no fate with that devil hall, they naturally really didn?t have any fate with it.

People of the Devil Mountain most probably wouldn?t lie to them.

“None caught your eye?” Another voice drifted over, speaking to the young man. The speaker was a skinny old man who appeared all of a sudden, like stepping right out from the void.

“Caught my eye or didn?t catch my eye, what does it matter?” The young man replied.

“If someone among them caught your eye, you could have accepted them as your apprentice.” The old man calmly stated. Apprentices were naturally subordinates, and if it was in the external world and there were people saying to accept descendants of devil emperors as apprentices, everyone would surely laugh until their teeth dropped off. However, the young man merely shook his head in a relaxed manner as he calmly replied, “I don?t need any.”

“That?s true too. If you need some, you can go to the Sky Devil Hall to choose.” The old man laughed.

“What about the Judiciary Hall?” The young man smiled.

“The temper of those from the Judiciary Hall are the worst. It?s best not to go there.” The old man also smiled.

“In that case, forget it then.” The young man seemed to find it a pity. “This time I?m going down the mountain, do you have any instructions for me?”

“Since you can go down the mountain, you can do whatever you want to.” The old man spoke.

“I initially thought you would want me to kill all those peak-level geniuses who came from the immortal realms.” The young man laughed, as though speaking of a very insignificant matter. This place was very far from the Fallen Devil Island. It was extremely extremely far, but this young man seemed to know that many geniuses of the immortal realms have entered the Myriad Devil Islands. This seemed incredible, but it was a fact that he knew, and his information was very accurate.

The reason for this was because this place, was the legendary Devil Mountain.

“Why kill all?” The old man asked.

“For these peak geniuses who came here, if we kill them all, it would definitely result in less immortal emperors in the future.” That young man replied.

“Under the gaze of the Myriad Devil Sovereign, if we slay those juniors because simply we are wary of the future, it would be a form of disrespect to the Myriad Devil Sovereign. You should have understood long ago that a true expert wouldn?t depend on things like weakening their opponents. If one wants to truly be the strongest of the strongest, they naturally would need to have sufficiently powerful opponents to contend against.”

“I naturally understand this.” The young man nodded.

“You can go down the mountain now.” The old man nodded.

“Maybe, I might even roam the immortal realms.” The young man didn?t leave straight away as he spoke.

“Do what you want to.” The old man turned and departed while the young man also left the mountain.

…

In the Fallen Devil Region, the army of the Vast Sky Devil Emperor was still stationed there, and caused a huge commotion all around, causing news of their arrival to spread throughout.

The news of the death of the Old Xia Devil King caused the entire Fallen Devil Island to tremble. The hearts of many people had huge waves in them, the old friend of the Fallen Devil Emperor, the powerful Old Xia Devil King actually died because of a junior at the devil-foundation realm.

Many people asked those who had attended the birthday banquet what happened exactly. When those people reminisced, they were also filled with sighs. They could still remember how imposing the Old Xia Devil King was, and remember Qin Wentian who rejected the reward with a heart filled with unwillingness. At that time, the Old Xia Devil King bullied Qin Wentian because he was weak and didn?t have a powerful background to depend on. To think that now, the reversal came so fast. Qin Wentian brought another devil emperor here and took his life away.

Recently, the Royal Devil Sect was extremely low profile. It might be possible that Qin Wentian wasn?t clear but how could people of the Fallen Devil Island not know that one of the three devil kings sent to hunt Qin Wentian down, was from the Royal Devil Sect?

Since this was the case, how would the Royal Devil Sect dare to not keep a low profile?

But what will be known, will still eventually be made known. Today, Qin Wentian entered the Royal Devil Sect with over ten devil kings beside him.

Since the Vast Sky Devil Emperor promised to help him, he naturally would do his best to ensure Qin Wentian?s goals were met. Other than fighting against the Fallen Devil Emperor, he also settled all of Qin Wentian?s other requests.

Qin Wentian wanted the Vast Sky Devil Emperor to send his devil kings to the various devil islands of the Fallen Devil Region to speak to those rulers of the island. The Vast Sky Devil Emperor had also agreed to do so.

Also, no matter where he went, there would be a group of devil kings following him, guarding his safety.

The Fallen Devil Emperor would never act directly because the Vast Sky Devil Emperor was just here. However, nobody could be sure if the people related to the Old Xia Devil King might make a move and attempt to kill Qin Wentian.

Right now, all of the Royal Devil Sect?s experts were filled with trepidation, their sect leader even appeared personally and nodded to Qin Wentian. “Sir Qin?s glorious arrival, please pardon us for our tardy welcome.”

“You are too polite.” Qin Wentian nodded and smiled at the sect leader. “I heard that one of the three devil kings who attempted to hunt me down back then was also of the Royal Devil Sect. Is it because Ba Xiao?s death had implicated me in this?”

“That devil king took matters into his own hands with some others back then. Sir Qin, the moment you say something, I will instantly capture them all and allow Sir Qin to deal with them.” The Royal Devil Sect Leader spoke, his attitude extremely amicable.

Qin Wentian has already brought the Vast Sky Devil Emperor?s army and stationed them here. Even the Old Xia Devil King died because of a sentence from him. How would he dare to not be polite?

“I don?t dare to.” Qin Wentian spoke.

“Naturally, I know this wouldn?t be able to mitigate the harm Sir Qin had suffered. If Sir Qin has any requests, please feel free to let me know.” The sect leader wouldn?t be so naive as to believe that Qin Wentian didn?t dare to.

“I, Qin, would like to ask the Royal Devil Sect for help.” Qin Wentian smiled.

“Please instruct me then.” The sect leader replied.

“Senior, can you please send some experts out to certain devil islands to kill some people for me?” Qin Wentian spoke.

“Who?”

“Huang Shatian and those around him.” Qin Wentian replied.

“Sure.” The sect leader of the Royal Devil Sect agreed directly. Could he even say no?

“In that case, I would have to thank senior for your help.” Qin Wentian courteously replied. “However, who does senior plan to allow to become the leader of this hunting expedition? Is it possible to allow some of the seniors beside me to leave a strand of devil sense on their body?”

“That?s only natural.” The sect leader of the Royal Devil Sect nodded. Qin Wentian was doing this because he wanted to monitor their movements.

The two of them feigned civility, the Royal Devil Sect sect leader selected a batch of devil kings while a devil king beside Qin Wentian left his devil sense on all of them. After which, they instantly departed.

There was a limit to the subordinates of the Fallen Devil Emperor and hunting down Huang Shatian wasn?t going to be a safe matter. It?s naturally best to get the Royal Devil Sect to do this. Even if they failed to kill Huang Shatian, they would ensure that Huang Shatian wouldn?t have the time to deal with matters pertaining to the adjudication battle.

After leaving the Royal Devil Sect, Qin Wentian headed in another direction, moving towards the Celestial Devil Lodge.

Not too long after, Qin Wentian arrived outside the Celestial Devil Lodge. He had thought that he would never be here again, yet now, he ultimately still came back.

A group of females could be seen flying over, stopping as they reached Qin Wentian. At this moment, the number of beauties around him were as numerous as the clouds. These women have all met Qin Wentian before, and now that they saw him again, their eyes all gleamed with a bright light.

“We pay our respects to Sir Qin.” The females all bowed.

“I wish to meet with your lodge lord.” Qin Wentian directly stated.
