Chapter 359: Visiting the Demon Emperor’s Palace
At the moment the black spot appeared, everything in the third level of the Demon God Prison froze for an instant. During this moment, the black spot continued to expand, emitting a powerful suction force that drew in all collapsing space, including the spatial storm.
"Feels good!" Gu Lan retracted his fist, watching the black spot in front of him slowly dissipate like a vortex, a hint of joy between his brows.
This was his first time using the Power of Origin. The power exceeded his expectations. The effect just now, comparable to that of a black hole, could only be achieved by Divine Realm experts who had deeply comprehended the Power of Origin.
Gu Lan felt satisfied that he could achieve such an effect with just a simple punch without exerting much effort.
"Young friend!" At this moment, a weak voice came from behind him, Chiyang Saint Sovereign.
Gu Lan quickly turned around and saw that Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s soul had already become extremely faint. He immediately took out the bronze magic coffin and gently placed Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s soul inside to nurture it.
"Thank you, young friend! Your timing was perfect!"
Back inside the coffin, Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s soul did not want to reveal how weakened it was to others. He managed to say a word of thanks before falling into a deep sleep.
This situation was extremely critical. Even with the nourishment of the bronze magic coffin, Chiyang Saint Sovereign wouldn’t last long. Only by using secret techniques to reshape his physical body and nurture his soul within it could his soul be preserved from scattering.
Retrieving the magic coffin into the system space, Gu Lan decided not to investigate the sealing points of the Demon God Prison for the time being.
Due to Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s consecutive use of various Demon Clan forbidden techniques, and eventually even using the sealing scroll of the Initial Demon Clan to exterminate all creatures in the third level of the Demon God Prison, the situation had become too severe for him.
Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s soul instability and contamination by demonic energy rendered the ordinary materials he had prepared for reshaping the body useless.
He needed to quickly gather materials suitable for reshaping the Demon Clan body to nourish Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s soul.
Due to the terrifying suction force caused by Gu Lan’s punch, not only were there no creatures left in the third level of the Demon God Prison, but even the demonic energy had completely dissipated, making it cleaner than the first two levels traversed by Gu Xiaoqi.
All the scenes derived from the Demon Clan around them vanished one by one, revealing only the original majestic scenery of the Demon God Prison. This place resembled an ancient wasteland, devoid of any vitality, with even the ground appearing exceptionally cold.
Mu Yuyan stood on a giant rock, frowning slightly as she looked around. Here, she felt a very familiar sensation, similar to what she had felt in the Spirit Gathering Immortal Valley before.
Could it be that the Demon God Prison and the Spirit Gathering Immortal Valley were the same place, both related to the ancient Snow Clan? Or was there some other connection...
With these doubts in her mind, Mu Yuyan didn’t dwell too much on them. Learning of Chiyang Saint Sovereign’s critical condition, she suggested to Gu Lan that they could go to the Initial Demon City to find materials to reshape the Demon Clan body.
Even if the ordinary Demon Clan in the Initial Demon City didn’t have them, they would certainly be found within the Demon Palace of No Start.
Reshaping the materials for the Demon Clan body was unique and not an exceedingly rare material that couldn’t be found throughout the entire Demon Realm. Gu Lan nodded immediately, and together with Mu Yuyan, they departed from the Demon God Prison, riding on Gu Xiaoqi who was still in her Phoenix True Body state.
Around the Demon God Prison, there were still sealing restrictions, prohibiting the use of Dao techniques like Teleportation Spells for travel. Attempting to use such techniques forcibly might lead to unforeseen consequences. Moreover, after Gu Xiaoqi revealed her true body, her flying speed was extremely fast. In long-distance flight, it wasn’t much slower than Teleportation Spells.

Soon, Gu Xiaoqi’s figure had left the Demon God Prison. Burning with Phoenix flames, she led Gu Lan and Mu Yuyan directly towards the City of No Start.
"This is... the aura of the ancient divine phoenix!"
"And there’s the aura of an Imperial Realm expert!"
Outside the Demon God Prison, two Demon Clan guards immediately noticed the Phoenix True Body in the sky. Soon, they identified the two figures on the Phoenix True Body as Gu Lan and the others who had just entered the Demon God Prison.
Seeing this, they breathed a sigh of relief. As the Heaven Emperor had close ties with Feng Yang Emperor, they wouldn’t be enemies of the City of No Start. Hurrying towards the City of No Start without concealing their aura must mean that something had gone wrong in the Demon God Prison, and they urgently needed to discuss with Feng Yang Emperor and the Demon King.
Although their anxious hearts settled, the two Demon Clan guards immediately sent a message to the City of No Start.
Next to the guards, two Demon Clan girls stared blankly at the two figures on the Phoenix True Body. Sensing the powerful aura, they were filled with shock.
They had thought highly of the people they admired, but they hadn’t expected them to be so extraordinary.
"Yaya, this aura seems to be something only Imperial Realm experts possess."
"I’m done for! The goddess is actually an Imperial Realm expert. When will I ever catch up to her footsteps? Sob..."
The Initial Demon Clan girl looked at Mu Yuyan’s figure, her eyes showing both shock and a hint of inferiority.
On the other hand, the Enchanting Demon Clan girl beside her was completely different. Her eyes had shifted from infatuation to fervor.
"It seems like they’re going to the Initial Demon City for something. We must catch up now! This is our chance!"
Saying this, the Enchanting Demon Clan girl grabbed the Initial Demon Clan girl’s hand and hurriedly chased after the Phoenix True Body.
Inside Initial Demon City, countless Demon Clan members simultaneously looked towards the city’s outskirts. They had also sensed those two powerful auras.
Especially the Demon Clan members who were Imperial Realm or above, their perception was particularly deep. Mu Yuyan’s aura was completely unhidden, indicating she was at the fifth stage of the Imperial Realm, the Emperor Luo Realm.

Within the entire Initial Demon City, aside from the Demon King of No Start, there were only three servants who surpassed the fifth stage of the Imperial Realm. Such strength could dominate at least one faction within the entire Demon Realm.
What surprised them even more was Gu Lan’s aura, which far surpassed that of the Heaven Emperor and the Demon King. It was now beyond their clear perception.
"Demon King, there are two transcendent experts outside the city!" The Demon King of No Start had long sensed those auras, causing tumultuous waves in his heart, though he maintained a calm exterior. Even though he could clearly sense an aura outside that likely surpassed his, possibly a Divine Realm expert, he could not afford to lose composure.
If he faltered, chaos would ensue among the Initial Demon Clan.
He gestured for his subordinates to leave and then calmly looked towards Feng Yang Emperor.
"Feng Yang, regardless of whether those outside are friends or foes, it seems I can’t accompany you to meet that Lower Realm friend for the time being. With powerful beings arriving at City of No Start, as the Demon King of No Start, I must go and see."
With that, he disappeared from his original position and instantly reappeared outside Initial Demon City.
Feng Yang Emperor frowned slightly as he continued to sense the two auras outside the city.
"This clearly is the aura of Friend Gu and Mu Yuyan. How did they become so powerful in just a few days?"
This was the first time he truly sensed Gu Lan releasing his full aura, which was subtly surpassing the Imperial Realm and reaching the level only Divine Realm experts could achieve.
Thinking of how he had casually referred to Gu Lan as "Friend Gu," only to discover that Gu Lan’s strength far surpassed his own, Feng Yang Emperor shook his head helplessly and quickly appeared outside City of No Start as well.
