Boom...
The trembling of the spatial tunnel grew increasingly violent.
Ye Yunfei kept his attention focused on that point of light rapidly transmitting from the other end of the spatial passageway.
It's just that this kind of long-distance transport required time.
Finally, after two hours.
A Fiend Seal appeared within Ye Yunfei's line of sight!
The seal bore engravings of suns, moons, mountains, and rivers, appearing awe-inspiring and exuding layers of profound demon energy laws.
"It's actually an Innate Treasure! Albeit, only a lower-grade Innate Treasure, but its value far surpasses a Respect Tool!"
Ye Yunfei felt a pleasant surprise.
In the world of magical artifacts, beyond Respect Tools lay Innate Treasures!
Ye Yunfei estimated that in the entire Xuanhuang Star Domain, even the ancient major sects and clans of the Sacred Domain might not necessarily possess an Innate Treasure!
"Excellent. This Innate Treasure belongs to me."
Ye Yunfei chuckled.
"Hmm? There's a demon soul attached to it. So, the Ancient Demon Race has managed to contact some demon from the Demon Realm via this spatial teleportation channel. This artifact is probably a gift from that demon to the Ancient Demon Race of the Xuanhuang Star Domain."
Ye Yunfei watched the Fiend Seal slowly approaching from deep within the spatial teleportation passageway.
"Very well. I'll conceal myself for now. Find the opportune moment to snatch this Fiend Seal!"
Ye Yunfei thought to himself after a moment of consideration.
Ye Yunfei sensed that the demon soul attached to that seal was not weak. He didn't plan to clash with it head-on—that would be too wasteful of energy.
Thus, Ye Yunfei's figure flashed, entering the Phantom Tower.
"Hide yourself nearby."
Ye Yunfei instructed the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm.
Swoosh!
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm transformed into a golden streak, piercing through space and vanishing in an instant.
"So this is an insect hole?"
Ye Yunfei noticed that every time the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm moved, it would release an unusual law related to space, causing a small area ahead to immediately dissolve into nothingness.
This allowed the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm to come and go freely within space, utterly unimpeded!
"Correct! The insect hole is an innate heritage talent of our race."
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm replied proudly.
Rumble...
Within the spatial passageway, the Fiend Seal drew closer and closer.
Outside, in the plaza before the ancient altar, Advisor Tiangu, the Three Great Demon Kings, and the other members of the Ancient Demon Race waited with utmost piety, prepared to welcome the lord from the Ancestral Realm!
"This truly is an utterly primitive world."
Suddenly, a rumbling voice, like the simultaneous explosion of countless thunderclaps, emanated from the Fiend Seal, transmitting beyond the passageway.
The demon soul on the seal was speaking!
"The Ancestral Realm Lord speaks! Everyone, follow me in paying respects!"
Before the altar, Advisor Tiangu was extremely agitated as he roared.
"All members of the Ancient Demon Race of the Guyao Realm sincerely welcome the arrival of the Ancestral Realm Lord!"
Under Advisor Tiangu's lead, all the Ancient Demon Race members kneeling in the plaza shouted in unison.
The Ancient Demon Race members in this plaza were all the elites of the Guyao Realm!
Among them were even veteran demons with boundless demon power like the Three Great Demon Kings and Advisor Tiangu. Now, roaring together, their might was truly immense, shaking the entire Guyao Realm to its core.
Thus, at this moment, nearly every member of the Ancient Demon Race across the Guyao Realm was stirred!
The next instant, all Ancient Demon Race members within the Guyao Realm knelt down towards the direction of the plaza deep in the Eastern District, performing a Five-Body Worship (prostrating full-length).
"We welcome the arrival of the Ancestral Realm Lord!"
All members of the Ancient Demon Race roared in unison.
Boom...
Waves of sound rolled through the small world, deafening to the ear!
"Hmm, very good."
Within the spatial passageway, the demon soul upon the Fiend Seal felt quite satisfied.
He originated from the Demon Realm. Arriving in such a primitive world, even though merely a demon soul, he felt superior—like a deity descending, completely looking down upon this lower world.
At this time, within the spatial passageway, the Fiend Seal was still moving slowly; it hadn't yet left the passageway to enter the Guyao Realm.
Now that he was already here, this lord from the Demon Realm felt no need for haste—putting on airs was necessary.
"I've come here this time mainly for two purposes. First, to gift your branch of the Ancient Demon Race an artifact.
Though this is only a lower-grade Innate Treasure, something practically like trash in our Demon Realm, I believe an Innate Treasure must be extremely precious for your primitive world. It could even become a foundation for suppressing the fortunes of a sect or clan.
Thus, this gift should satisfy you."
The demon soul announced clearly.
With the support of demon power, his voice rumbled out of the spatial passageway, echoing continuously in the plaza outside.
Hiss!
An Innate Treasure!
The Three Great Demon Kings, Advisor Tiangu, and the other high-ranking Ancient Demons instantly turned into a collective of statues, each fiercely sucking in cold breaths, utterly unable to believe it.
An Innate Treasure!
It was said that in the entire Xuanhuang Star Domain, perhaps only those ancient, major sects and clans within the Sacred Domain had a chance of possessing an Innate Treasure.
Moreover, this was merely legend; perhaps even those ancient sects and clans of the Sacred Domain might not possess an Innate Treasure.
"With an Innate Treasure for suppression, our Ancient Demon Race's rise has hope!"
"Correct! An Innate Treasure is enough for our Ancient Demon Race to truly rise within the Xuanhuang Star Domain!"
All the high-ranking members of the Ancient Demon Race completely lost their composure!
Each was so excited their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
An Innate Treasure was enough to make a force rise!
"We thank the Lord for this bounty!"
Advisor Tiangu took the lead, roaring out.
"We thank the Lord for this bounty!"
The Three Great Demon Kings led the other Ancient Demons in excited shouts.
"Why so excited? This Innate Treasure belongs to me. You Ancient Demons won't have a share."
Ye Yunfei couldn't help but inwardly sneer.
"Hmm."
Inside the spatial passageway, the demon soul was rather satisfied with the reactions of those Ancient Demon high-rankers.
"Lord, these treasures are our humble offering from the Ancient Demon Race. We hope the Lord will accept them!"
Advisor Tiangu suddenly remembered something, fully prostrating himself on the ground as he called out clearly.
Swoosh swoosh...
From atop the ancient altar before him, several hundred space rings simultaneously flew out, rushing into the spatial passageway.
"Oh? Your primitive world actually has some decent treasures. Perhaps because it's undeveloped.
Very well, I shall accept these things."
The demon soul perceived the contents of those space rings, seeming a little surprised.
Clearly, he had found some valuable treasures within those space rings.
"Now, I'll tell you the second purpose of my arrival this time.
That is... the Heavenly Dao Tower!
When exactly will you manage to find the Heavenly Dao Tower?"
The demon soul said.
