School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master Chapter 1863 - 1949: Revival of the Demon Path Sovereign 1

"Yun Hua, do you wish to recuperate for a moment before we proceed?"

Ji Yueshen observed Yun Hua’s battered state. The instant the battle erupted, this girl had flipped her twin-tailed hair, knitted her brows, and charged forward recklessly. She inflicted fierce damage upon the enemy, yet simultaneously wounded herself, striking the foe with a thousand points of harm while taking eight hundred in return. Though she vanquished a demon, her own injuries were significant.

"Yun Hua, you are currently at the Half-step Supreme Peak State. Even with your injuries, you should be able to recover instantly by channeling your Divine Power, correct?" Ziyun inquired, finding Yun Hua’s condition perplexing. "Furthermore, didn't I just provide you with a healing elixir? Did you, by any chance, consume it?"

In Ziyun’s recollections, Yun Hua had always been rather thrifty in her youth. Even in the recent conflict, where her strength neared the Half-step Supreme level, she had recovered with ease. Yet, Yun Hua appeared miserable now, which was truly peculiar.

Upon Ziyun’s question, everyone else wore expressions of bewilderment, with the sole exception of Yun Long, who let out a chuckle. "It is a great honor that our Du family has produced an individual at the Half-step Supreme Peak State, one who might even aspire to ascend to the Supreme realm. However, my sister’s disposition… it leans towards being somewhat masochistic and incredibly frugal."

"Isn’t it significantly more than just ‘somewhat’?"

The Sky Dragon King offered a knowing smile, seemingly grasping the situation.

"To such a degree of masochism, such ingrained frugality – it appears to have coalesced into a unique path, her very own Dao. The extreme Left Path transforming into the Righteous Path; could this be the true essence of achieving the Supreme realm?" Ziyun appeared to be on the verge of a profound realization.

The Sky Dragon King was also taken aback, a sharp glint flashing within his eyes.

Apart from Ji Yueshen, the Black Forest Demon King and Ape Ancestor remained frozen in place like statues, utterly motionless.

Yun Hua, however, responded with a chuckle. "You have deduced correctly. I’ve harbored this tendency since I was young. Later, during battles, I discovered that the more grievously I was beaten, the more boundless my War Intent became. I don’t comprehend any specific Dao or the like."

"But, the more others strike me, the more I surge, always fighting until the very end. As for being frugal, that’s merely a personal quirk, Sister Ziyun. I have stored the Immortal Pill you gave me just now. It’s best not to waste it; I only ever use elixirs when I am attempting to break through to a new level."

Yun Hua’s declaration astonished everyone present. She had truly pushed her habits to their absolute limit. For cultivators, elixirs and Magic Treasures represent the greatest forms of assistance. Yet, Yun Hua was undeniably an anomaly…

Ziyun and the others commenced their Enlightenment right then and there, paying no heed even to the Half-step Supreme Level demons that were reviving in the distance.

...

Zhao Han and the Fire Qilin, a formidable duo of man and Divine Beast, journeyed alone through the Secret Realm. Their shadows stretched out long behind them, cast by the slanting rays of the setting sun, resembling a trailing tail.

Zhao Han was, in fact, the reincarnation of the Tao Ancestor. Since his integration with the entity known as Drunk, his Tao Ancestor Divine Soul had fully awakened.

His current strength had reached the Peak of the Heavenly Monarch realm, merely a single step away from the Half-step Supreme Realm. However, his actual combat power rivaled that of Chen Nan. The moment he unleashed his Ancient Tower, all Demon Gods within a hundred-mile radius would flee in terror.

Since the return of the Tao Ancestor Divine Soul, the sheer deterrence emanating from his spiritual essence was so profound that no one in the Mortal World could possibly withstand it.

"Little Fire, where shall we search for your godfather? This Secret Realm is quite the chaotic mess." Zhao Han gradually settled atop the Fire Qilin.

"Uncle Zhao, godfather should be coming to find us. Oh, look over there! There appears to be a palace ahead. Let us venture inside and investigate."

The Fire Qilin’s eyes suddenly widened as it spotted a colossal palace situated not too far ahead. The palace shimmered with radiant hues and was astonishingly constructed from a single, massive Crystal Stone, emitting a peculiar power even from a distance.

"So incredibly comfortable and warm!" The Fire Qilin couldn't suppress a sneeze.

"It seems there are valuable items within this palace. However, in this God Demon Secret Realm, neither demons nor gods are benevolent beings. We must proceed with extreme caution."

After a brief exchange of words, Zhao Han and the Fire Qilin began making their way towards the grand hall.

The moment they stepped across the threshold into the hall, the door behind them abruptly slammed shut, plunging the interior into darkness.

Nevertheless, Zhao Han and the Fire Qilin remained composed, swiftly activating their Ancient Tower Magic Treasure. It began to rotate within the confines of the hall, absorbing streams of dark energy and thereby re-illuminating the space.

Within this hall stood a solitary Stone Statue, exuding a divine aura so potent it compelled observers to bow instinctively.

The Fire Qilin’s limbs nearly buckled under the pressure, its body instinctively trying to kneel on the spot.

However, having accompanied Chen Nan, its inherent stubbornness had intensified, making it refuse to bow to anyone save for its own godfather.

"Little Fire, this statue is most peculiar; it exerts an unbearable sense of pressure. This is truly strange, as no Supreme Expert has ever made me feel this way before," Zhao Han remarked.

Divine Power coursed through Zhao Han's form. Though his cultivation Realm had not yet reached the Half-step Supreme Realm, his might nearly matched that of a Supreme, much like Chen Nan, who dared to challenge them.

By intertwining with the Drunk Divine Soul, he was destined to ascend to the level of a Tao Ancestor in time.

"This statue is excessively arrogant, compelling onlookers to kneel with a mere glance. Does it truly believe itself to be the Supreme King?" the Fire Qilin scoffed.

Despite the remark, the statue remained utterly still, like an unmoving mountain, showing no flicker of life.

"Insignificant mortals, what is a Supreme King to me? In the eyes of a Supreme King, I too am an indomitable Divine!"

A powerful Divine Thought permeated the hall, emanating from the statue as it suddenly appeared to awaken.

Zhao Han let out a low chuckle. "Divine, you say? My brother once spoke of encountering beings who proclaimed themselves Divines within the God and Demon Tower. Are you perhaps one of those from Outer Heaven, seemingly trapped here as well?"

"Fools! The pitiful prisoners of the God and Demon Tower cannot be compared to this being. I merely harness the latent power within this locale to achieve my revival. Soon, the Nine Heavens and Ten Realms will be within my easy grasp. Today, with the Netherworld Demonic Energy surging, my return is at hand."

An intensely grating quality colored this voice.

However, such a formidable presence could only be wielded by a Supreme Expert.

"Revival?"

Zhao Han's expression drastically changed. "Chen Nan harbored suspicions about Ghost Venerable's involvement, warning us to be vigilant. Could it be that Ghost Venerable intends to revive this entity?"

If such a scenario were true, they would inevitably perish within the confines of the Secret Realm once the Outer Heaven Demon was resurrected.

"My godfather mentioned that while Ghost Venerable possesses a peculiar temperament, he is unlikely to act against the principles of justice upheld in the Four Extremes World. He probably wouldn't commit such an act," the Fire Qilin tilted its head, contemplating aloud.

"My godfather stated that Ghost Venerable and the Demon Path Supreme were once contemporaries. His ultimate desire might be the revival of the Demon Path Supreme. Yet, the Heart Demon resides with my godfather; the Demon Path Supreme would require the Heart Demon's departure first for any chance of revival."

Zhao Han shook his head. "There is no trace of the Heart Demon's presence here. Given the Heart Demon's immense power, within this Secret Realm, it should be able to move about freely. It seems the situation is far more intricate than initially presumed."

After a silent exchange of Divine Thought with the Fire Qilin, he turned his attention back to the statue. "Senior, are you by any chance the Demon Path Supreme?!" he deliberately inquired, seeking to uncover the truth.
