Chapter 2266: Three Branches Are Too Many, One Is Enough

Sikong Jing, upon seeing this, was deeply shaken.

The Demon Extermination Technique’s Demon Battle Heavenly Technique was indeed created by the Black Demon at the end, and it was named after the Demon Vein Master Mo Zhan, but Sikong Jing immediately felt puzzled...

If the Demon Extermination Technique was successfully passed down to Mo Zhan, the current situation where demons are slaves and servants should not have occurred.

What transpired afterward to prevent the "Demon Battle Heavenly Technique" from being passed down?

What kind of war occurred that left hundreds of powerful demon puppets with only six retaining consciousness?

How did the Inheritance Blood Pearl of the previous Master of Ten Thousand Beasts wander from Divine Demon Island to the East Plain Northern Land in the Deserted Sea Forbidden Land?

"Wait a minute, what about the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison?"

Only then did Sikong Jing think of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison. Until now, Sikong Jing had not seen the Black Demon steal the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison.

And he had little time left, so how did the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison appear?

"Probably related to the final war with the Black Demon senior..."

Taking a deep breath, Sikong Jing, carrying various doubts, continued into the next Memory Illusion Realm.

"Ancestor, a formidable enemy is coming..."

As the illusion scene appeared, Sikong Jing saw the Cang Lineage Sect Master and the Master of Yu Vein at the entrance of the Dark Palace. Their faces looked extremely grim, trembling as they gazed at the dark hall...

In the next moment, the Black Demon appeared with Mo Zhan.

At this time, the Master of Yu Vein tremblingly said, "Ancestor, the major sects from all sides of Canghai have come to kill us, saying we are engaging in acts against humanity, because of... the existence of demons."

The Cang Lineage Sect Master also said in a low voice, "Ancestor, they say all demons must be destroyed, otherwise they’ll annihilate our Cangyu Demon Sect."

Upon hearing this, Mo Zhan trembled violently.

Meanwhile, the Black Demon squint his elder eyes slightly, he slowly said, "Then fight."

As if he didn’t care at all about the alliance of the major sects of Canghai...

But just as the Black Demon’s voice fell... poof!

The Cang Lineage Sect Master suddenly stabbed a sword into the back of the Master of Yu Vein, then stood up slowly under the incredulous gaze of the Master of Yu Vein, saying sinisterly, "Ancestor, I believe it’s better not to fight."

As his words fell, the Black Demon’s eyes flashed cold light, staring fixedly at the Cang Lineage Sect Master.

Simultaneously, Mo Zhan roared angrily, "Canglang, what are you doing?"

Canglang, was the name of the first Cang Lineage Sect Master.

He ignored Mo Zhan, instead looking at the Black Demon with a strange smile, saying, "Ancestor, I’ve been thinking recently, dividing the Cangyu Demon Sect into three veins is too many, perhaps better to keep only one."

Just as he finished speaking... buzz buzz buzz!

Silhouettes appeared before the Black Demon’s palace, consisting of the strong from all the major sects of Canghai.

Of course, this was due to the Cang Lineage Sect Master’s collusion...

Sikong Jing saw all this and naturally wasn’t surprised at all. In simple terms, it was about the first Cang Lineage Sect Master Canglang thinking the Black Demon was about to die and wanting to control the entire Cangyu Demon Sect, by colluding with outsiders.

At this moment, the heavily wounded Master of Yu Vein screamed madly, "Canglang, you, you, you are treacherous... you are utterly despicable."

Upon hearing, Canglang coldly laughed, "The despicable one is you."

He then mercilessly stabbed another sword into the Master of Yu Vein, before looking at the Black Demon again and saying, "Ancestor, you’re already close to dying of old age. Why not announce now to rename Cangyu Demon Sect to Cang Sect, and appoint me as the Great Gate Master."

"Only then can I rightfully let you have a glorious burial."

Saying this, Canglang laughed heartily...

Yet the Black Demon coldly swept his gaze over the surrounding sects’ strongmen, saying with a cold voice, "Canglang, you underestimate me."

"No, I’ve never dared to underestimate the Ancestor," Canglang replied heavily.

Then, he slowly took out a treasure, then laughed crazily...

"The Ancestor’s terribleness is well known. I even believe the Ancestor is the strongest in Canghai Wujiang, which is why I went through great pains to request a treasure from the Flame Prison Emperor among the Five Heavenly Emperors."

"This treasure is called the Flame Prison Divine Puppet Bell, specifically used to deal with your demon puppets."

As Canglang spoke, Sikong Jing’s gaze froze. A treasure from the Flame Prison Emperor was requested.

In the memory scene...

The Black Demon’s eyes gradually froze as well, with his angry intent flooding forth, naturally due to his hatred for the Five Heavenly Emperors, he hadn’t expected his subordinate to contact the Five Heavenly Emperors.

In short, the battle started.

Just as Sikong Jing thought, the Black Demon’s demon puppets and Canglang’s requested Flame Prison Divine Puppets engaged in a terrifying battle, while the Black Demon and Mo Zhan fought fiercely with Canglang and the major sects’ strongmen...

The memory scene’s Divine Demon Island was like a terrifying battlefield of Purgatory.

But in the next instant, the scene shifted...

The Black Demon returned to the palace covered in blood...

It was precisely this palace where Sikong Jing now stood, with his eyes showing explosive madness, saying, "I never expected I’d hide for so long, yet ultimately confront the Five Heavenly Emperors’ things."

Clearly, since the Black Demon’s return to Divine Demon Island, no one had known he had once been a follower of the Ten Thousand Beasts Master.

But due to the Cang Lineage Sect Master’s betrayal, he unexpectedly faced the Flame Prison Emperor’s treasure.

"Anyway, I must complete the ’Demon Battle Heavenly Technique,’ or else I would shame Mo Zhan and all demonized individuals."

"I will now truly activate the Desert Sea Absolute Array, to destroy everyone outside."

Saying this, the Black Demon crashed into a room at the back of the grand hall.

The room was full of the aura of treasures and terrifying formations. The Black Demon stopped and stared deeply at a large treasure inside the room, which was a black air-conductive pillar.

On the pillar, there were all kinds of array patterns...

Suddenly, the Black Demon took out the previous Master of Ten Thousand Beasts’ claw bone, announcing loudly, "Desert Sea Absolute Array, activate!"

With that, the Black Demon was about to grasp the claw bone towards the black pillar.

The claw bone was indeed the key to activating the Desert Sea Absolute Array, and of course, it was crafted by the Black Demon himself over the years.

But just as the claw bone was about to touch the pillar... buzz!

A rainbow light shadow suddenly appeared, wrapping up the claw bone, and instantly the Black Demon’s hand was empty, the bone disappeared.

His aged face changed wildly, as he looked back with a start...

Meanwhile, Sikong Jing, upon seeing this, almost ceased breathing as well. Even though these events had already transpired, he couldn’t help but tense up; the claw bone seized from the Black Demon’s hand was snatched away just like that.

Who was the person who took it away?

Following the Black Demon’s gaze in the memory scene, Sikong Jing quickly looked over.

In the next moment, Sikong Jing saw the claw bone surrounded by the rainbow shadow, gently floating in mid-air, as the rainbow shadow emitted a melodious feminine voice saying, "This is truly... the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts’ bone."

In the scene, the Black Demon frantically asked, "Who are you?"

Sikong Jing was well aware the Black Demon in that scenario must be extremely flustered, possibly about to... fail his efforts at the last moment.
