Seventeen hundred years ago, the demon world.

The entire demon realm is divided into sixteen layers, which belong to the same level of cultivation plane as the Holy Spirit Continent and the Demon Realm. Once the powerful cultivators of the demon realm successfully cultivate and ascend to the god realm, they will inevitably become the object of the major forces in the god realm, just because the power of heaven and earth in the demon realm is an energy called "demon soul power".

This kind of energy is very special, it ascends to the god realm, and when it receives the infusion of ascension, the efficiency of converting and absorbing divine power is the highest, that is, the ascending powerhouse of the demon realm, when entering the god realm, it is much ahead of the ascending people of other realms in terms of mana alone.

In addition, the most powerful thing about the demon spirit power is that it can be condensed into a liquid and carried around in a specific container. This is something that no other heaven and earth energy, including divine power, can do. The most divine power is stored in the Divine Stone, and the Divine Stone is still naturally formed.

Of course, storing demon soul power has high requirements for containers, and the amount that can be held at one time is extremely limited, and it is also not so simple to condense into liquid. Therefore, a bottle of demon soul power, even if it is the lowest level demon soul power, is worth a lot of money.

The little demon is the lowest level of cultivators in the demon realm, which is equivalent to the enlightenment level of the Holy Spirit Continent, followed by the big demon, the demon phase, the demon, the demon king, the demon emperor, and the heavenly demon.

But the strange thing is that in the last tens of thousands of years in the demon realm, there has not been a single powerful person who has ascended to the god realm. It can even be said that since that terrifying reincarnation came, the sixteenth layer of the demon realm has not even appeared a heavenly demon-level powerhouse.

And that reincarnation shook the entire demon world. even several times forced the world to the catastrophe of life - "the upper realm is cleared".

Not many people in the demon clan remember that the first time it was purged was tens of thousands of years ago. After all, the first time was also the most casualties, the people were all dead, and the records left behind were pitiful. On the sixteenth floor of the demon clan, hundreds of millions of demon clan monks were slaughtered, and countless communities, families, and sects were swept away.

At that time, the powerhouses of the demon world did their best, abandoned all feuds and family hatreds, and united with the outside world as never before, joining forces to fight against the invaders. But it turned out to be in vain. Countless strong men were driven to extinction. Their strength was not worth mentioning in front of their opponents at all, and the entire demon world had been even more slumped since then.

What frightened them the most was that there was only one intruder, claiming to be the "Upper Venerable".

The same purge broke out several times later. The words "Venerable of the Upper Realm" and "Purge" have been perpetuated by the Demon Realm. Although there are no longer as many casualties as the first one. But the demon world is already in the midst of death again and again. Gradually, it became numb.

For tens of thousands of years, the repeated cycle of disasters is like a sharp blade hanging on the heads of everyone in the demon clan. Mortals are fine. Originally, the life span was not long, and it turned into dust after a hundred years, and most people only regarded this kind of reincarnation for thousands of years as a legend or myth. Those who are really afraid of purging are still those demon clan cultivators who have achieved a little success on the path of cultivation.

After several purges, the demons on the sixteenth floor quickly all formed a group. Divided into levels, most of the demons in each layer are gathered in the form of a tribe, and a patriarch is selected to manage the affairs of that level. Of course, the core business is to supervise the changes in the world at any time, in order to be able to respond in time and warn all levels of tribes once the signs of a new round of purge are discovered.

Because every time the Venerable of the Upper Realm descends to earth, it will bring strong spatial fluctuations, followed by the destruction of one demon city after another. When these signs are discovered, the demon tribe will react in time, leading the clansmen as much as possible to avoid the slaughter in their own ways.

This is also for what, since the first purge, it is difficult for the Upper Realm Venerable who has visited again to cause such huge casualties.

In addition to observing the signs, the demons will also use their best bloodline talent "divination" to predict disasters at any time. It's a pity that the Upper Realm Venerable is too powerful. This kind of celestial power is no longer something they can easily divination.

"The Great Prince, the sixteen patriarchs have all gathered. "It has been a thousand years since the last purge, and the tense nerves of the demon clan have also become weak in these long years.

The annual divination ceremony is still carried out as usual, and all the sixteen-layer patriarchs will attend, and the divination is carried out by the "Great Prince" selected by the formal demon clan, and this Great Prince, who is also recognized, is the demon with the strongest bloodline talent.

"Alas...... Let's start the ceremony, the ninety-nine boys, and I'll come out when it's over. The Grand Duke sighed slightly, and said in an old and hoarse voice. His face was pale, as old and wrinkled as his voice. His body was wrapped in a wide blood-red robe, and even most of his face was obscured by a blood-red hood.

For each divination, in order to maximize the power of the bloodline, at least ninety-nine boys are required to perform living blood sacrifices. As the Grand Prince, of course he knew this, but even after presiding over so many divinations, the Grand Princes couldn't bear to look at this scene with their own eyes.

"It's been almost a thousand years! Once a year, the people who die at our hands may soon be in time to purge the ......," with a self-deprecating wry smile, the Grand Maharaja shook his head slowly, and the tone of his voice became even weaker.

Under the danger of several catastrophes of extermination, the demon clan was stimulated with the most powerful reproductive and reproductive ability, and the lives of the clansmen were protected by their full strength, and they also seemed to be the most worthless.

The ceremonial bell of the blood sacrifice outside the door of the "Bell ......" sounded crisply, accompanied by the noisy crying and sobbing of a group of children.

Gradually, the voice became quieter and quieter, and the Grand Prince, waiting for everything to calm down, staggered to his feet.

"This time, this is the last divination in my life! The previous divination was not successful, and so many children died in my hands. This time, I, an old bone, also risked my life, and used my life to divinate once!" As if unwilling, and like a relief, the eyes of the great prince after getting up suddenly became resolute, and the momentum of his whole body shook violently, and he strode out of the door.

"Great Prince, the ritual altar has been successfully activated. Please activate the power of your bloodline and once again predict when and where the 'disaster of reincarnation' will come!"

Seeing him come out, the sixteen patriarchs who had already stood up early bowed their hands at the same time, and the one who led the way was the patriarch of the sixteenth floor.

In front of the Grand Maharaja was an open space about a hundred feet square, and in the center of the clearing was an altar for divination, around which were neatly placed the bloody corpses of ninety-nine children.

The Grand Maharaja took a deep breath, his eyes bursting with an unprecedented light, and then walked quickly to the altar.
