Chapter 1308 - 695: Dragon Ape Demon Venerable—You Dare Challenge Me?
"There is indeed a problem..."
Jiang Shu thought to himself.
It’s important to know that at this point, he had already reached the Mixed Cave Realm Middle Stage.
His divine sense was exaggeratedly comparable to that of an ordinary Demon Venerable Late Stage.
In addition to his understanding of the Space Dao.
Only then did he barely notice a hint of something amiss.
Such a secretive method, even if it wasn’t set by an existence like the Supreme Sect Leader, it was laid out by a Demon Venerable comparable to Ao Qing.
With a slight thought, Jiang Shu closed his eyes tightly but raised his hand to suppress the spreading of the space crack.
Inside his chaotic space, a swaying World Tree seedling slightly trembled. Then a wispy, illusory branch grew out and seeped into the crack.
Not only the World Tree seedling, but the powers of Desolation and Creation flowed out together.
"I don’t know what’s inside yet, so it’s best not to act rashly."
He closed his eyes as the World Tree seedling slowly devoured the space fragments, followed by continuous growth and extension. Numerous pure space dao auras surged out, mending the collapsing space.
This action was extremely slow, and after a long time, a thread of a gap appeared in the void.
Without any hesitation, Jiang Shu took advantage of this opportunity and stepped in.
As soon as he stepped in, the world seemed to spin around; Jiang Shu immediately suppressed his aura, completely concealing the strong human clan waves on himself, and stealthily released his demon energy, blending seamlessly with the surrounding environment.
More importantly, layers of space fluctuations rippled around him continuously.
Even if ordinary Demon Venerables were to look, they wouldn’t be able to spot him at first glance.
"This place is indeed a demon race scheming ground; the demon energy is truly dense..."
Jiang Shu sneered, quietly extending his divine sense with countless thoughts.
At this moment, Jiang Shu’s cultivation realm was already extraordinary; under the premise of not touching formations or strong beings, he immediately sensed something.
"Interesting, this seems to be a site of the demon race’s ancient ruins."
"That’s right, even the Ancient Demon Sect has their relics; the demon race’s existence predates the Demon Sect."
An underground site accessible only through space jumping appeared in Jiang Shu’s vision.
This site lay underground, stretching for miles, with countless demon corpses lying densely in view.
Some of these corpses had rotted long ago, as if centuries or even millennia had passed.
Yet some still carried fresh blood.
It seemed as though a fierce battle had just taken place there.
Outside the battlefield, he sensed some demon beast lives not exceptionally powerful.
Among them were half-demon species.
Continuously exploring the surroundings.
In the midst of Jiang Shu wanting to probe deeper with his divine sense, a sudden thought surged in his mind.
His entire divine sense retracted.
"Something’s not right..."
At that instant, he sensed a strong killing intent enveloping the battlefield’s sky—this killing intent was not controlled by the demon race’s Demon Venerables.
The entire site seemed fused with the great array.
Any disturbance would trigger the killing intent of the array.
"With such efforts, this place indeed seems to be a significant territory of the demon race."
Jiang Shu slowly closed his eyes.
Being prepared, he extended his divine sense, extremely slow.
The power of Space Dao slowly emerged beside him, as his divine sense gradually expanded outward along with it.
Under the concealment of space, the divine sense easily evaded the array’s killing intent.
After all, the array remains an inanimate thing.
If a powerful Demon Venerable were present, they would naturally detect even the slightest changes within.
But now...
Jiang Shu’s divine sense continued to spread, and he quickly detected many areas of the demon race.
In a border area, consisting of endless dust and rocky walls, it mostly contained some Transformed Realm demons and half-demons.
On the edge, a half-demon bearman, one zhang tall, suddenly slammed the hard barrier in front, breaking it into fragments and dispersing it into sand.
He took a deep breath, intending to take a brief rest.
And suddenly, an invisible killing intent descended, overwhelming as an angry world crashing down.
The bearman couldn’t even let out a scream before being turned to ashes instantly.
The surrounding half-demon species showed expressions of terror in their eyes, and the area fell into deathly silence, frozen by the killing intent.
Moments later, a cold voice suddenly erupted.
"Keep going, continue to excavate, don’t stop!"
And with the emergence of this voice, the sound of slapping followed.
A Golden Python of Demon Monarch level swung its tail, harshly striking the demon race individuals as punishment for daring to pause.
These half-demon species dared not resist and continued to excavate the surroundings.
And this scene was fully detected by Jiang Shu hidden in the void.
"The resentment on that bearman was absorbed by the array and transformed into killing intent. No wonder the array’s killing intent remains condensed and growing stronger."
Jiang Shu’s eyes turned cold.
For him, this killing intent posed no threat.
But the secrecy of his identity was paramount among the demon race.
If the killing intent detected him, it might provoke a demon race Demon Venerable’s pursuit.
Especially at this critical juncture; whether it be Heaven-Burning Ancestor or Ao Qing, both wish to eliminate him swiftly!
"The Barbaric Wilderness Ridge should be just superficial. Perhaps even the Dao Yi Sect hasn’t discovered such secret ruins beneath the Barbaric Wilderness Ridge."
