Supreme Divine Book

This was the main hall of the Infernal domain's highest authority. At this moment, all the high ranking members of the demon race were standing on both sides of the main hall.    

With Pu Miling in the lead, Han Chen and his group stood to the left of the great hall.    

The atmosphere in the hall had sunk into a deathly silence.    

Many of the higher ups of the demon race lowered their heads, squinting at the dozen or so people kneeling in the middle of the hall.    

The ten plus people kneeling there were impressively led by the Dark Lord, followed by the Dark Emperor, the Snake Emperor, and the Eagle Emperor.    

As for the others, they were all Dark Lord's trusted aides and the leaders of the important positions in the Infernal domain during the past thousand years.    

Dark Lord had a dejected face and a powerless expression.    

Everyone was kneeling on the ground, not daring to move. All of them were filled with a strong sense of fear.    

"Lord Devil Lord, what has happened all those years ago …"    

Yan Wu, Cheng Feng was still standing respectfully below the Chiming Palace.    

He also narrated the fact that during the thousand years of Demon Lord Chi Yan's seclusion, he had used his power to kill the three Great Demon Masters from the previous generation and the three new Demon Masters in order to carry out his thousand years of scheming so that they could pretend to run away from the Demon Area.    

In the throne room, the Demon Lord Chi Yan had his back facing the crowd, and didn't interrupt them from beginning to end.    

When Cheng Feng's last sentence was said, Demon Lord Chi Yan slowly turned around. His imposing face appeared extremely calm.    

Demon Lord Chi Yan looked back at him indifferently, and said indifferently, "What the two of them have said, do you admit it?"    

Dark Lord's body trembled, his face was gloomy as he replied in a low voice, "This subordinate pleads guilty!"    

Confess    

As soon as he said that, the Demon Lord Chi Yan's dark golden pupils contracted. Everyone felt the space around them tremble violently, and in the next moment, an invisible, super strong aura surged out from his body.    

"Thump!"    

Along with a heavy explosion, the dozen or so people on his knees all flew out.    

Including the Dark Lord and the three Demon Emperors, it was as if they had been struck by a mountain. One by one, they smashed into the corners of the palace.    

"Wah!"    

Everyone spat out a mouthful of blood, and there were even a few whose cultivation was relatively weaker. Their bones were completely shattered, their organs were on the verge of splitting apart, and they directly fell to the ground and lost consciousness.    

When the Eagle Emperor was fighting with Han Chen earlier, he had already suffered heavy injuries.    

Demon Lord Chi Yan almost lost his life this time, the Eagle Emperor's aura was dispirited and he laid on his side, unable to even crawl.    

The faces of the surrounding people paled. Demon Lord Chi Yan was really ruthless.    

"Lord … Lord Devil Lord, please spare me!"    

Dark Lord trembled and knelt on the ground, like a weak bird in the wind, terrified like a cicada.    

"Humph!" usurper for the throne, Dark Lord, you are truly bold! This Seat hasn't said I'm going to die yet! Are you so impatient to get into this position? "    

"Lord Devil Lord!"    

Without waiting for Dark Lord to speak, an unshakeable aura once again exploded from Demon Lord Chi Yan's body.    

The king's Qi that was so pure and natural that it caused one's heart to palpitate and not dare to look it in the eye.    

Demon Lord Chi Yan waved his hand, and a dark green light shot out.    

The Dark Lord, the Dark Emperor, the Snake Emperor, and the Eagle Emperor were all enveloped by this green light.    

Immediately afterwards, to everyone's surprise, the green light turned into dark green insects. These Insect Shadows quickly drilled into the eyes, ears, noses and mouths of Dark Lord's group.    

"Ah!"    

What followed was the miserable wails of the four people.    

"Sizzle sizzle!"    

Dark Lord's group of four struggled painfully on the ground, their entire bodies covered in dense rays of light that resembled electric arcs. However, these dense lightning bolts were dark green in color.    

"Ah!"    

Heart-rending screams echoed out from the four people's mouths.    

Even someone as powerful as the Dark Lord was rolling on the ground in pain, like a stray dog.    

Looking at the other members of the demon race, their faces were ashen, their eyes filled with fear and reverence.    

"What did the Demon Lord Chi Yan do for them?"    

Shen Yu weakly shrank into Han Chen's embrace. She was curious, but at the same time, her heart was palpitating.    

Just what kind of pain was this that even a top Ranker like the Dark Lord would find hard to endure?    

Han Chen squinted his eyes and replied softly, "This is the 'Soul Devouring Realm', a type of seal similar to a soul imprint. In this entire world, only the Demon Lord Chi Yan s are able to use and remove this kind of restriction. "    

Zhongli Yanchang, Chi Ming, Pu Canghun and the rest who were at the side were all startled, and looked at Han Chen with astonishment.    

Soon, the few of them came to a realization.    

The inheritance that Han Chen had obtained from the Seven Nights Saint Ruler must have contained information about the 'Soul Devouring Realm' in the inheritance memories of the Saint Ruler.    

Seeing that Shen Yu still did not quite understand, Han Chen continued to explain, "Once this Soul Devouring Attraction is planted in another person's body, it will erupt once in awhile. At the same time, the power of the soul imprint would constantly tear at the opponent's primordial spirit and soul. The further one goes, the stronger the power of the Soul Devouring Realm becomes. Only when the opponent's primordial spirit and soul are completely torn apart and devoured will it be the end of it. "    

"Oh my god!" "Is it that terrifying?"    

Shen Yu fearfully grabbed onto Han Chen's arm tightly. A pair of large intelligent eyes first looked at Demon Lord Chi Yan, then looked at the nearby Pu Miling.    

Once the two were compared, Shen Yu felt that the Demon Lord Chi Yan was even more terrifying.    

All the demon soldiers were trembling with fear, unable to bear to look at the scene in front of them.    

After half a cup of tea's worth of effort, the Dark Lord, the Dark Emperor, and the others all had blood gushing out of their mouths and noses.    

As for the Eagle Emperor, he had already been severely injured, but he had directly fainted from the pain.    

However, even in a state of unconsciousness, everyone could feel that the pain of the Solitary Falcon was not abated at all, as his body was still twitching uncontrollably.    

Very soon, the green arcs of light surrounding the bodies gradually dimmed and vanished.    

The miserable screams from the crowd slowly subsided.    

The Soul Devouring Realm happened once every once in a while, and each time, it only lasted for half a cup of tea.    

However, even if it was only half a cup of tea's time, the torment he had to endure was simply worse than death.    

"Cough cough!"    

Dark Lord was trembling from head to toe, his face was so pale that there was not a single trace of blood on it, and he was gasping for air. He crawled up from the ground with much difficulty and knelt in front of Demon Lord Chi Yan.    

"Sin, sin, please die!"    

From the mercy of the Demon Lord at the beginning to the current begging for death.    

A Soul Devouring Realm martial practitioner directly caused Dark Lord to give up begging for mercy.    

Behind him, the Emperor of the Dark World and the Emperor of the Snakes also powerlessly pleaded, "Sinner, please die."    

"Die?" Hmph! "Demon Lord Chi Yan's face revealed a hint of disdain and contempt," You guys, do you think you have the qualifications to die?    

Dark Lord weakly kneeled on the ground.    

To betray the Demon Lord Chi Yan, death was considered an advantage.    

Demon Lord Chi Yan raised his cold eyes, his stern gaze was like a torch, "Dark Lord, you have truly disappointed me. Everything you've done all these years, it's enough to punish you for that. However, over the past thousand years, the demons have yet to fall apart, so you have contributed some credit. "    

Dark Lord was stunned, he looked at the other party in surprise.    

"On account of the present demons, they are servants. I will keep your lives for now. Of course, you have caused the deaths of the three great Demon Lords from the previous generation, and have committed a heinous crime that cannot be forgiven. When the moon is full, the Soul Devourer will give you a punishment. "If in the future, if you can satisfy me and make me pay, I will consider removing the Soul Devouring Realm from your bodies. However …"    

Demon Lord Chi Yan's voice paused for a moment, and two rays of light as sharp as swords shot out, "If you two still dare to have two hearts, then your fate will be the same as this seat!"    

"Bam!"    

As soon as he finished speaking, the stone throne on the throne room behind Demon Lord Chi Yan instantly shattered into fine powder.    

A violent and terrifying aura attacked every corner of the great hall like a storm.    

All the high-ranking members of the demon race paled, feeling greatly alarmed. Soon after, everyone kneeled on the ground and spoke in unison.    

"Demon Lord Chi Yan, thousands of generations."    

"We will definitely finally be able to become the Lord Demon Lord, and we will never regret it."    

"Hmph, without regrets?" The Demon Lord Chi Yan sneered, "What you say is really nice. Among all of you, how many will never regret it?"    

With that, the Demon Lord Chi Yan waved his hand and shouted, "All of you can leave!"    

"Understood, Lord Devil Lord!"    

It was as if everyone's mind was relieved. At least eighty percent of the people present had cold sweat dripping down their backs.    

Dark Lord who had just retrieved his life, respectfully kowtowed to express his gratitude.    

"Many thanks to the Demon Lord for not killing me."    

"Many thanks to the Demon Lord for not killing me."    

The Dark Emperor and the Snake Emperor also kowtowed.    

On the surface, it looked like Dark Lord and his trusted aides did not receive too severe of a punishment.    

But in reality, having to endure the pain of the Soul Devouring Realm once over the years could be said to be a life worse than death. Especially at the very end, if the Demon Lord Chi Yan didn't help them unlock the Soul Devouring Realm, then there would be a day. Dark Lord and the others would die from the pain because their primordial spirit and soul would be completely torn apart.    

This kind of punishment was quite cruel.    

Furthermore, although the Dark Lord was unforgivable, it was just as the Demon Lord Chi Yan had said.    

In these thousand years, under the power of the Dark Lord, the Infernal domain slowly became more prosperous and stabilized. The Dark Lord and his subordinates did a lot of work.    

The Demon Lord Chi Yan was a wise king!    

His eyes were still set on the long run. Killing the Dark Lord was definitely not a good thing, but for the sake of the demon race's long term development. There was still a reason for him to keep him alive.    

In the blink of an eye, only the Demon Lord Chi Yan, Yan Wu, and the people from the Spirit Demoness remained in the great hall.    

The corner of Demon Lord Chi Yan's eyes slanted and his gaze directly fell on Han Chen's body. His throat lightly rolled as he clearly spat out a few words.    

"You have the aura of a Seven Nights Saint Ruler on your body!"
