Best Young Master

Chapter 1966: Chapter 1831: Upper Realm Guide

Although the tournament is over, its impact has far from disappeared; instead, it seems to be gaining momentum.

Many people are talking about it, believing that the Demon World is about to undergo a transformation.

The original power structure will be broken, and resources will be redistributed.

It is foreseeable that in the near future, the Demon World will usher in a glorious and dazzling period.

"The Demon Clan will rise!"

"Our Demon Clan will definitely rise, unstoppable!"

Throughout the Ancient Demon City, similar voices can be heard everywhere, as people are engaged in discussions.

During this competition, many extraordinary young people emerged, giving hope for rejuvenation.

Especially Ye Fan and Baili Han, who are the focal points of people’s discussions!

They are not from the Ten Great Families, with no abundant resources, no top-level Cultivation Techniques, martial arts, or secret techniques.

However—

Driven by their own talent, comprehension, and tenacious efforts, they charged into the top ten, writing a legend, a myth!

"The Judges have descended to the Lower Realm!"

At this moment, a groundbreaking message spread like a hurricane, swiftly permeating the Ancient Demon City.

The entire Demon World was in an uproar, and Ancient Demon City boiled over.

Countless people rushed to the City Lord Mansion, hoping to catch a glimpse of the Upper Realm Guide.

In no time, the entrance of the City Lord Mansion was crowded, teeming with people, completely blocked.

If it weren’t for the barriers around the City Lord Mansion rising into the air, the entire mansion would be surrounded, even the light wouldn’t pass through.

"If only the Guide could appear in person!"

"Yes, even seeing them from afar would be nice!"

Outside the City Lord Mansion, the crowd was noisy, with many excitedly discussing, hoping the Guide would make an appearance.

However, they were disappointed as the Guide did not appear, only having the City Lord deliver a message.

Tomorrow, he will lead the ten young strong people into a mysterious realm for training to assess their talent, comprehension, and strength, then rank them.

Upon learning that seeing the Guide was hopeless, the crowd gradually dispersed.

At the same time, Ye Fan and others received the notification.

Gather in the City Lord Mansion tomorrow morning.

A night of indulgence!

The next morning, Ye Fan quietly rose, covered the sleeping Zi Huan with a thin blanket, and exited Ziyi Square, heading directly to the City Lord Mansion.

En route, he encountered no obstacles and smoothly entered the City Lord Mansion.

At this moment, others also arrived in unison, quietly waiting at the small plaza within the City Lord Mansion.

Before long, the Ancient Demon King, with hair white as silver, arrived.

"Follow me!"

The Ancient Demon King wasted no words, glanced at everyone, and directly led them to a section of the Ancient Hall situated amidst the clouds.

This Ancient Hall has existed for eternity, claimed never to fall, known as the Forbidden Land of the Ancient Demon City, where ordinary people lack even the qualification to approach, let alone enter.

Upon nearing this Ancient Hall, Ye Fan sensed a terrifying pressure, even stronger than that emanated by the Ancient Demon King.

It was an intimidation from the Divine Soul, disregarding all lives, striking fear into hearts.

"Such powerful energy!"

"I feel like my Divine Soul is about to shatter!"

Others also chimed in, displaying terrified expressions.

It’s hard to imagine how powerful the being inside the Ancient Hall truly is, for even its emitted aura is so terrifying.

Facing this pressure, for the first time, they felt incredibly insignificant, akin to ants looking up at a giant.

"Buzz!"

Everyone’s Demon Technique automatically began to operate, their bodies exuding Demon Gang, resisting this terrifying pressure.

"The Guide is inside, go in yourselves!"

The Ancient Demon King cast a deep glance at everyone, standing before the Ancient Hall doors, speaking solemnly.

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat!

Could it be that even the Ancient Demon King lacks the qualification to enter the Ancient Hall?

"Swish!"

Tu Sihai shot out two beams of blood light from his eyes, surrounded by a thick evil aura, his gaze steady and fearless, stepping into the Ancient Hall.

Others also performed secret techniques, withstanding immense pressure as they entered the Ancient Hall.

Inside the Ancient Hall, the pressure instantly vanished, leaving everyone feeling alleviated.

At the center of the Ancient Hall was an old altar covered in intricate, mysterious runes that flickered with light.

In the altar’s center stood a tall figure, hands behind his back, like a mountain, exuding an intimidating aura.

Clad in a black cloak, like a true demon, with black fabric concealing his true face, imparting a mysterious and powerful presence.

However—

Ye Fan felt a familiar aura from him, causing his heart to quake.

It was the unique mix of evil and death aura of Human-shaped creatures!

He finally understood what entity this so-called Upper Realm Guide truly was.

Human-shaped creatures!!

The beings responsible for endless massacres of life, originators of dark turmoil.

Never expected, the so-called Upper Realm turned out to be the lair of Death Creatures.

This discovery made Ye Fan’s heart race!!

"What’s going on? Isn’t it supposed to be ten people? Why are there only nine?"

The Judges spoke, their voice very rigid, without the slightest emotion.

"Report to the Judges; during the ten-to-five competition, one person was killed in battle!"

Outside the hall, sweat abruptly appeared on the Ancient Demon King’s face.

He had actually overlooked this point. From the ten young strong people, Xingtian died in battle, naturally leaving only nine, and he hadn’t selected a replacement yet.

"Immediately select one from the top hundred to fill the tenth spot."

The Judges ordered, their tone very firm, leaving no room for objection.

"Yes, I will do it right away!"

The Ancient Demon King discreetly wiped off a cold sweat, quickly summoned a mighty elder, and the two conferred for a moment, deciding to promote Luo Landu to fill the tenth strong spot.

The reason was simple, Luo Landu’s strength was well recognized; although he lost to Ye Fan, it was not disgraceful.

In terms of strength, Luo Landu was undoubtedly the strongest beyond the top ten. Promoting him would likely meet no opposition.

Upon receiving the notification, the Luo Landu Family was ecstatic, urging him to report to the City Lord Mansion quickly; this was a blessing from heaven.

At the urging of the clan elder, Luo Landu soon arrived.

After thanking the Ancient Demon King, he activated his secret technique, easily passed the test, and walked into the Ancient Hall.

Then, under everyone’s gaze, he calmly stood slightly behind Ye Fan, indicating his identity.

Ye Fan was very surprised; he didn’t expect the Ancient Demon King to promote him to be one of the top ten.

But after thinking about it, he was relieved.

Luo Landu’s strength was undoubtedly formidable, likely able to compete with Baili Han. In this situation, the Ancient Demon King’s promotion to supplement the top ten was naturally reasonable.

"Very good!"

The Judges coldly glanced at them, saying, "I assume you already know that I will soon lead you to a mysterious place. How much you gain depends on your fortune. All of you, ascend the altar and prepare to depart."

The altar was very large, and even with all ten of Ye Fan’s group on it, it did not seem crowded.

"Everyone prepare, let your fresh blood spill to activate the altar!"

The Judges’ dry and hard voice sounded, and Ye Fan and others cut their wrists, letting their blood spill onto the altar.

Among them, Ye Fan deliberately wrapped his blood with death aura to avoid exposure.

The various colored blood flowed in the runes on the altar, like they embodied life, emitting an astonishing aura.

"Buzz!"

With a flash of light, the blood on the entire altar connected into one, forming an ancient and mysterious giant rune.

No one spoke, and the Judges chanted a series of peculiar syllables, unexpectedly using spells to activate the altar.

"Crack!"

The top of the Ancient Hall suddenly opened, spreading apart to reveal the sky.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a gigantic beam of light shot out, piercing the sky, tearing open a broad spatial passageway leading to the unknown ahead.

"Whoosh!"

Ye Fan and the other ten people, along with the Judges, entered this special spatial passageway, advancing forward.

This was a special passageway leading to an unknown destination; Ye Fan sharply noticed the time was in chaos, as if a moment spanned a hundred years, resembling the fleeting nature of eternity.

This scene was somewhat akin to traversing a Star Domain, yet not entirely, as if a new path was forged.

"Could this altar be the one that can traverse the Star Domain? No wonder it wasn’t found elsewhere. But what kind of world lies ahead?"

Ye Fan was shocked. Since arriving in this world, he had been searching for an altar capable of traversing the Star Domain but had found nothing, unexpectedly seeing it here.

Occasionally, the passage walls were transparent, revealing stars being left behind, as they pierced through the universe, arriving at extremely distant places.

No one knew how much time passed, but everyone felt a shock as they burst out of the passage into a cold Star Domain, reaching the end.

Starlight flickered, empty and desolate, their Ancient Demon City unknown distances away, likely no longer within the Demon World.

This scene was stunning!

Ye Fan was relatively calm; after all, he was accustomed to traversing Star Domains for years. Such grand scenes were familiar to him.

However, the others were witnessing this for the first time, leaving the Demon World and arriving in the distant Star Domain, bringing them unparalleled shock.

"Look, what’s that?"

Luo Landu excitedly pointed ahead, exclaiming.

Just ahead lay a massive island—not a celestial body or a meteorite, but a mysterious giant island.

It was very expansive, although not one-tenth the size of the Demon World, still very spectacular, quietly floating in the void; it had mountains and rivers but no life, not a single tree or blade of grass, filled with dense death aura.

"This island was originally a world, later abolished, only this piece remains preserved..."

Through the Judges’ introduction, Ye Fan and the others gradually learned that the island was called Tian Zang Island, the ancient battleground where they once fought with the Human Race’s strong people.

Countless strong people of the Human Race and Demon Clan fought and died here, leaving endless corpses and their so-called Spiritual Artifacts and Holy Weapons.

Over endless years, through repeated trials, they finally discovered a secret technique to allow these corpses of Human Race and Demon Clan strong people to produce massive death energy, for their cultivation needs.

This time, bringing Ye Fan and others here was precisely to let them absorb the death energy on this Tian Zang Island, enhancing their strength.

"Crunch crunch..."

After hearing the introduction, Ye Fan’s face was gloomy, his fists clenched, joints cracking, yet he fiercely suppressed the cold and harsh killing intent bursting within him!
