Chapter 1524: The Demon Lord's Scheme
drew a cake of medium size.The Imperial Court is currently too weak, there are only a handful of Divine Realm experts.Although Ji Ying is merely a puppet saint son of the Heavenly Dao Sect, being chos...The Human Race Garrison Commander!
"Wait!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The Demon Lord suddenly spoke, causing Shen Changqing's abruptly rising aura to halt. However, his eyes remained icy cold.
That's it.
The Demon Lord was also secretly having a headache.
He didn't expect Shen Changqing to be so impulsive. He said he would fight and immediately acted, not giving him any chance to say a few more words.
If it were other cultivators facing him, the Demon Lord wouldn't be afraid at all.
Even if the Sword Sovereign were here, he would dare to challenge the other party.
Anyway, since we've all cultivated to this realm, who would be afraid of whom
If he truly revealed his full strength, the Demon Lord questioned if he would be defeated by the Sword Sovereign.
But Shen Changqing was different.
Last time we fought.
Though the Demon Lord didn't reveal all his cards, he wasn't the only powerful fighter involved.
Even with the combined power of six divine beings, they were unable to suppress their opponent. This clearly demonstrates just how terrifying Shen Changqing's strength is.
Now.
In the absence of other deities.
Even the Demon Lord has to admit it.
Even though he had revealed all his cards, he was still no match for Shen Changqing.
This is an awkward, but undeniable fact.
As for the depth of cultivation at the Divine Master realm, Shen Changqing could truly be called the number one person throughout eternity. Whether it was the Demon Lord himself, the Sword Sovereign, or even the ancient emperors, none of them were as good as the person before him.
>
That's it.
The Demon Lord readily admitted defeat.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Or rather.
He also didn't want to continue tearing up his face with the other party because of some trivial matters.
Right now, the Demon King is trapped in the Void Realm, and the Netherworld continues to assault the celestial barriers. The internal world of the heavens can no longer withstand continued consumption.
Internal strife is detrimental.
Thus thinking, the Demon Lord gradually calmed down.
"Convey my order, have Taishan come here immediately!"
As soon as he said this.
Shen Changqing's expression moved slightly.
He thought that the Demon Lord would have directly killed Taishan after realizing his undercover identity, but he didn't expect Taishan to be alive.
If Taishan were truly dead, then Shen Changqing would have no need to continue tearing his face with the Black Demon God Clan.
As soon as I thought of this.
Shen Changqing restrained his aura.
A few moments later.
The mountain comes in from outside.
The moment he saw the Demon Lord, he immediately bowed in obeisance.
"The disciple bows to his master!"
"No need for formalities!"
The Demon Lord spoke in a calm voice.
“I summoned you here today because someone has come to look for you. You can discuss the following matters at length.”

After saying this, the figure of the Demon Lord had already disappeared from the hall.
Upon hearing this.
Tai Shan stood up straight, looking at Shen Changqing with a wry smile on his face.
“Shen Zhen shou!”
In fact, even when Shen Changqing made a big commotion, Taishan had already noticed it. It's just that when he wanted to step in, he was stopped by the Demon Lord.
Until now.
Only upon receiving the order from the Demon Lord could Taishan appear.
On the other side.
Shen Changqing's expression was also strange.
He had thought of many possibilities, the only one he hadn't considered was that Taishan would actually worship the Demon Lord as his master, or that the Demon Lord would actually take Taishan as his disciple.
Thoughts raced in his mind, Shen Changqing also smiled faintly.
"Since Tai Shan is unharmed, Shen can now rest easy."
Anyway.
At least Mount Taishan is still alive.
This is also good news.
Taishan's face was full of gratitude: "It is truly my honor to have Shen Zhen Shou come here in person!"
He was truly grateful.
Just as the seal of Absolute Heart had just dissipated, he rushed over alone and ventured deep into the territory of the Black Devil Gods.
This is how it's done.
To say that Taishan is not moved is also false.
All along.
Even after joining the Black Demon God Clan, Taishan did not forget his responsibilities. He would occasionally send some messages to Shen Changqing, but that was all he did.
He always thought of himself as a simple tool, and it didn't matter if he had to sacrifice himself for the human race.
I didn't expect that.
I also have such weight in my heart.
This is the first time.
There is a kind of man on Mount Tai who would die for his friend.
Shen Changqing curiously asked, "What happened in here, Taishan brother, could you enlighten me"
"That's no problem..."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Mount Tai didn't hide anything and directly told what happened during this period.
Shen Changqing's expression changed as he listened, and when Taishan finished speaking, he roughly understood the Demon Lord's intentions.
To put it simply.
> Mount Tai can save lives.
>
There are three main reasons.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
First, the strength shown by the Human Race has caught the attention of the Black Demon Race.
The second is to exist for oneself, making the Demon God Clan wary.
Thirdly, the potential Taishan displayed caught the attention of the Black Demon Clan.
The Demon Lord did not kill Taishan, but instead took him as his disciple. It is clear that he valued Taishan's talent and wanted to cultivate him into a top powerhouse for the Black Demon God Clan.
Although Taishan was originally a human undercover agent, the blood flowing in his body is that of the Dark Demon race.
As long as the Demon God Clan provides enough benefits, subtly, the other party will naturally tend towards the side of the Demon God Clan.
After all.
The lifespan of a human being is only a hundred years at most.
The other party has been with the Dark Demon Race for hundreds of years.
If hundreds of years are insufficient to change the other party, then thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years.
One day.
Tai Shan will prioritize the Black Demon Clan.
>The rest is humanity's problem.
After countless eons of silence, the human race has once again emerged. Coupled with the collapse of the Divine Temple and the fall of numerous powerful figures, the heavens are now filled with emptiness.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
With the Black Demon God Clan unable to exterminate humanity, they naturally wouldn't want to continue fighting against them.
Killing Mount Tai is easy, but it's not worth making enemies with the human race for it.
Conversely.
The Demon Lord taking Mount Tai as his disciple is a sign of goodwill towards the human race.
To be precise, it was a signal of good intentions sent to Shen Changqing.
That's all.
>
It's not that Shen Changqing is arrogant.
That is the fact.
Throughout history, the heavens have always been a place of survival of the fittest, where strength reigns supreme.
Shen Changqing's fists are now hard enough to make even the Black Devil Clan wary of him.
However.
In Shen Changqing's view.
It's also bad for Taishan to worship the Demon Lord as his master.
Now he doesn't need to continue probing the Black Demon Clan's intelligence.
The other party became the disciple of the Demon Venerable, and one day he would have hope of controlling the Black Devil Clan. At that time, the human race could have one more reliable ally.
Just like the demon clan of old.

Before Heavenly Mechanism Daoist took charge of the demon clan, humans and demons were locked in an endless struggle.
But now.
>
The demonic clan is already considered an ally of the human race.
Still the same saying, there are no eternal enemies in the world.
"It's a good thing that Tai Shan brother can worship the Demon Lord as his master. Now that most of the Divine Lords of the Heavenly Palace have fallen, only the Sword Lord and the Demon Lord are left alive."
Even if the Demon Lord's strength is not as good as that of the Sword Master, it should still be considered formidable.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The fact that you can be taken in as a direct disciple by the Demon Lord indicates that there is also a chance for him to reach the Divine Sovereign realm one day.
Even if the worst comes to worst, it's still not a problem for Zhendao Shenhuang.
One day, when you rule over the Dark Demon Clan, the Human Race will be your ally. This way, it benefits both of us!
Shen Changqing looked at Taishan Mountain and said with a smile.
The latter smiled wryly: "Speaking of Godhood is easy said than done, even if I could break through to the Emperor realm, I wouldn't be sure. But with Shen Zhen guarding this place, I can rest assured."
>
"Haha, Shen expects Master Taishan's ascension to the Dao that day!"
Shen Changqing smiled faintly, chatted with Taishan Xiang for a while again, and then bid farewell.
Once he was sure Taishan was fine, he saw no need to linger any longer among the Black Demon Gods.
Just as he was leaving, the figure of the Demon Venerable appeared once more.
"Damn brat, to say that I'm inferior to that old geezer Jian Huang! You have eyes but can't see!"
It is obvious.
The Demon Lord had never truly left.
Shen Changqing also heard what Shen Changqing said to Taishan.
At the same time, the Demon Lord also suspected that the other party had always been aware of him hiding in the shadows. Some words that were ostensibly addressed to Taishan were actually meant for him.
After a moment's thought, the Demon Lord helplessly chuckled: "Good job, Shen Changqing. With such a person in the human race, it will surely prosper!"
"Master!"
When Taishan saw the arrival of the Demon Lord, his expression also became respectful.
The Demon Lord looked at the other party and said faintly, "Cultivate well. Being able to become a God Emperor is within reach even for the weakest of my disciples. As for whether you can step into the realm of the Divine Sovereign, it depends on your own luck."
A deity's breakthrough is not simply a matter of talent. Even the so-called top prodigies are insignificant in the face of the Divine Sovereign's constraints.
Unless one possesses truly unparalleled talent that transcends time, the key to breaking through to the divine realm lies in opportunity!
"The disciple understands!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Next, there will be a great battle at the Heavenly Walls. If you want to break through faster, go to the Heavenly Walls for experience."
But correspondingly, the danger is not small.
If one were to accidentally fall there, everything would be in vain.
"How you choose is up to you, I won't force you!"
The Demon Lord's words caused Tai Shan's expression to fluctuate.
Since the other party said that there would be a battle at the Heavenly Wall, they definitely wouldn't make a mistake.
A battle that could get even a deity to speak personally, must be quite dangerous. It's highly likely to be related to the deities of the Netherworld.
If that were truly the case, then the ferocity of the battle at the Heavenly Barriers would be far more terrifying than what the Demon Lord described.
But—
Without taking risks, how can one grow.
Today's world changes too rapidly, so simply retreating to seclusion for cultivation is not the best approach.
Tai Shan knew very well that his rapid breakthrough was largely due to the trials and tribulations he had undergone in the Heavenly Barrier.
That's all I could think of.
Mount Tai has already made a decision.
"The disciple wishes to enter the heavens' barrier, seeking an opportunity to break through the pinnacle of the Divine Master!"
"Alright, this is a mark of my power. Though suppressed by the Heavenly Realms, it should be enough to hold back an ordinary God Master at their peak."
The Demon Lord's wave of his hand caused a divine light to fall upon Tai Shan. The latter felt an imprint appear on his arm, where a mysterious power was dormant.
But this power is beyond his control, it only activates on its own when he is in danger.
Thank you, Master!
Tai Shan's face lit up with joy.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
The imprint of the Demon Lord's remaining power was like an extra life, especially crucial in critical moments. How could he not be delighted
Then.
The Demon Lord waved his hand, dismissing the other party.
Watching Taishan's departing figure, he let out a soft sigh.

"Although this child is quite talented, he is still inferior to Shen Changqing. I wonder when our clan will produce another prodigy like Shen Changqing. If such a prodigy were to appear, our clan would surely prosper!"n within their heart. At best, their cultivation progress would be slow, and at worst, they would make no further advancement.However.Given Qixing Venerable's understanding of Shen Changqing, he wasn'...
