World-Ending Demon Emperor-Chapter 2036 - 942: The Only Way to Break Through to Demon King

Chapter 2036: Chapter 942: The Only Way to Break Through to Demon King

In the final boss battle, the Witch Queen Daji played a minor role from beginning to end.

But in fact, during the year of trial in the Demonic Prison Secret Realm, most of the time it was Lanling who was just tagging along.

When he was alone, the trial depended entirely on wit.

But when it was him and the Witch Queen together, it relied entirely on brute force. Especially from the first to the eighth layer, where the Witch Queen led Lanling all the way through.

As for the ultimate boss, it had to be beaten with brains.

The Witch Queen Daji, much like Ashi Liren, disliked using her brain and was straightforward, preferring direct violence. So in this final boss battle, she played a minor role.

After the battle ended, and both had broken through to Heaven Tier Sub-King, the dark platform slowly rose.

The Witch Queen Daji said: "Emperor E Tian is truly remarkable."

This sentence seemed vague, but Lanling understood the meaning.

Emperor E Tian was indeed remarkable. How to describe this Demonic Prison Secret Realm? It’s like a modern-day KFC farm, where little chicks can be raised to nearly five pounds in just four and a half months.

No, that’s not right!

The chickens in the KFC farm never walk in their lives, whereas the Demonic Prison Secret Realm enhances the frenzy of battle and life-and-death danger tenfold, a hundredfold, squeezing breakthrough in cultivation.

"Let me see your chest..." said the Witch Queen.

Lanling lifted the energy black robe, revealing the black hole vortex on his chest.

He had broken through from a two-star Earth-Rank Sub-King to a Heaven Tier Sub-King, and the diameter of the black hole vortex on his chest had expanded to ten centimeters.

A black hole diameter of ten centimeters had swallowed most of the energy heart.

A normal human heart is about 13 centimeters in length, 10 centimeters across.

Lanling’s current profile was of the Demon Race, so his energy heart was naturally larger. But its length was only 17 centimeters, and horizontal diameter about 14 centimeters.

This means Lanling’s energy heart had already been devoured by about sixty-five percent by the black hole vortex.

"Yao Xing, if I cultivate normally, how much more can I break through?" Lanling asked.

Yao Xing replied: "A three-star Heaven Tier Sub-King, meaning after you finish the first layer of the third Heavenly Demon Tower, you must come out immediately."

Lanling nodded.

Next, Lanling and the Witch Queen entered the third Heavenly Demon Tower for trial.

...

A month in the Demonic Prison Secret Realm, three days in reality later, Lanling and the Witch Queen completed the first layer of the trial.

Their cultivation broke through to two-star Heaven Tier Sub-King.

"Demon Prison Manager, I want to leave," Lanling said.

The Demon Prison Manager hesitated: "Your Majesty, strictly speaking, you must complete the entire trial of the Heavenly Demon Tower to leave."

Lanling lifted his clothing: "Look at my energy heart."

At this time, ninety percent of Lanling’s energy had been completely swallowed by the black hole vortex.

"If I continue the trial, my entire energy heart will be devoured by the black hole vortex, then my brain domain, bloodline energy, and finally my entire body and soul will be completely swallowed," Lanling said, "I command as the Demon Emperor, I want to leave."

The Demon Prison Manager was very helpless.

Emperor E Tian created this Demonic Prison Secret Realm, which clearly had many rules and regulations, but the heir of the Demon Emperor in front of him had completely broken them.

The energy blueprint that couldn’t be viewed, he viewed it. The spatial skill that couldn’t be learned, he learned it too.

"Alright," sighed the Demon Prison Manager.

Then, a dark platform floated over, transporting Lanling and the Witch Queen to the exit of the Heavenly Demon Tower.

"Your Majesty, what do you plan to do next?" asked the Demon Prison Manager.

Lanling said: "I have been afflicted by the black hole vortex, do you have any way to save me?"

The Demon Prison Manager quietly said: "There’s no way, perhaps the only solution is to exchange your heart for one more powerful."

Lanling said: "That would be the heart of the Dragon Emperor then, do you want me to become the Dragon Emperor?"

The Demon Prison Manager said: "I do not wish that, but... survival is the primary law. Right now, the only way to save your life is a heart exchange. If you choose to become the Dragon Emperor, then of course you would be my enemy, but I can understand."

The Demon Prison Manager is an energy life form, presumably without emotions, but Lanling could still hear that he was very sad and disappointed, even despairing.

"Do not despair, I will never choose to become the Dragon Emperor, which would mean being kept captive by the Dragon Temple," Lanling said. "I’ll find a way to save myself, if I can’t, then wait for the next Yao Xing to appear. But do not lose your fighting spirit over my affairs, never fall into the hands of the Dragon Temple, understand?"

"Yes, Your Majesty," said the Demon Prison Manager.

Lanling said: "Curiously, most of the people inside the Dragon Temple have the Dragon Bloodline, why are they desperately trying to seize the Demonic Prison Secret Realm?"

The Demon Prison Manager replied: "There’s a Demon Pavilion inside the Dragon Temple, its power continues to grow."

Lanling said: "This world is becoming harder to understand, the Demon Pavilion’s power continues to grow inside the Dragon Temple. Right and wrong can’t coexist, light and darkness are irreconcilable, the Dragon Temple is so confused."

The Demon Prison Manager said: "Your Majesty, if I didn’t hear you wrong, are you scolding us? They are righteous, we are evil."

"Only socialism can save capitalism; socialism is the last bastion of capitalism, I understand that," Lanling joked, "Forget it, you’re an energy life form that can’t understand my sarcasm."

"Let’s go..." After saying this, Lanling waved his hand and left with the Witch Queen.

"Goodbye, Your Majesty..." said the Demon Prison Manager.

Then, he couldn’t help but say, "Master, you must come back. If you vanish into thin air, then... then I might not be able to hold on, and the Demonic Prison Secret Realm will really change ownership."

"What did you call me?" Lanling asked.

"Nothing... nothing," said the Demon Prison Manager.

Lanling left with the Witch Queen, marking the official end of the trial at the Demonic Prison Secret Realm.

...

After flying for a long time within the energy field of the Heaven and Earth Barrier, Lanling and the Witch Queen returned to the Eternal Curse World.

The Witch Queen suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I now suspect we were also created, just like the Demon Prison Manager?"

Lanling replied, "Why would you have such a strange idea?"

The Witch Queen said, "The Demon Prison Manager faces you like a helpless child, and we... are the same."

Lanling did not respond.

The Witch Queen asked, "What do we do next?"

Things were a bit different from Lanling’s plan; he originally thought that when his skills improved to the peak of Heaven Tier Sub-King, the Black Hole Vortex would devour ninety-nine percent of the energy heart.

However, the Black Hole Vortex spread much faster than imagined. Now, as a two-star Heaven Tier Sub-King, the Black Hole Vortex has already devoured ninety percent of the energy heart.

This leaves Lanling facing a huge problem.

He cannot let the Black Hole Vortex devour himself within the Demonic Prison Secret Realm, as that would keep him stuck inside, unable to enter the Netherworld.

At that time, the ultimate power of the Dragon Temple on the moon directly used star force to destroy the Demon Capital of the Empire of Misfortune, causing Emperor EYun to vanish into thin air.

Star force was so strong that it instantly destroyed Misfortune Demon Capital. Consequently, the ruins of Doom Magic Capital formed a solitary dead plane; meanwhile, in the real world, it had long become an inland sea.

Emperor EYun’s energy didn’t even have time to dissipate; it vanished completely, entering the Netherworld.

Therefore, to find Emperor EYun’s inheritance, one must enter the plane of the Demon Capital Ruins of the Empire of Misfortune. You must go through that plane to reach Emperor EYun in the Netherworld.

Looking back, why did the Ghost King also evade to the ruins of Doom Magic Capital when pursued by the Holy Temple?

Aside from being a separate plane to hide away, another reason was the Ghost King also wanted to head to the Netherworld, seeking Emperor EYun. It even created a fake Netherworld Rift within the plane of Doom Magic Capital Ruins.

Therefore, Lanling must let the Black Hole Vortex completely consume all his vitality in the ruins of Doom Magic Capital, vanish instantly, and enter the Netherworld. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

However, Lanling found it difficult to achieve this.

At that time, the star force destroyed the Demon Capital of the Empire of Misfortune, creating a solitary ruin plane, where time was almost at a standstill.

Thus, inside, the Black Hole Vortex might even stop spreading.

Therefore, Lanling must absorb blood, plundering his own cultivation to breakthrough, allowing the Black Hole Vortex to expand further.

Now that Lanling is a Heaven Tier Sub-King, he must absorb blood from Demon King-level powerhouses to advance his cultivation, enabling the Black Hole to expand instantly, causing him to vanish and enter the Netherworld.

However, it’s impossible for any Demon King-level powerhouse to let Lanling absorb blood, especially within the plane of the ruins of Doom Magic Capital.

"Daji, you must breakthrough to Demon King-level in a short time, then enter the ruins of Doom Magic Capital plane at the bottom of the Sea of Misfortune with me, let me absorb blood," Lanling said, "Only then can the Black Hole Vortex expand instantly, consume me, make me vanish into the Netherworld Plane, and find Misfortune Demon Emperor’s inheritance."

The Demon Queen Daji looked at Lanling for a moment, then nodded, "Alright."

She didn’t ask why, nor did she question how she would break through to a Demon King.

Because, based on the current situation, the possibility of Demon Queen Daji breaking through to a Demon King was zero, simply impossible.

But in the eyes of the Demon Queen, since Lanling had mentioned it, there must be a way. As for what the solution might be, she was unwilling to think deeply about it; she would follow whatever Lanling said.

Women of the Witch Kingdom really are straightforward to the point of... leaving one speechless!

Lanling said, "Currently, the only Demon King-level bloodline inheritance we can obtain is... the Last Demon Dragon King!"

The Witch Queen shivered and said, "I... I don’t want to become something neither male nor female."

"I have carefully observed; the Demon Dragon King has two King-level bloodlines, one Demon Bloodline, one Dragon Bloodline," Lanling said, "We’ll only take the Demon Bloodline, and we want its King-level bloodline, which has nothing to do with its physical form."

"Alright!" said the Witch Queen.

Lanling said, "Emperor EYun slew the Last Demon Dragon King, but it did not die completely. Instead, it was hidden within an Energy Prison of the Demon Empire, and Emperor EYun even extracted its clone into the Demonic Prison Secret Realm for future inheritors to utilize the Demon Dragon King’s clone for trials."

The Witch Queen asked, "Did the Demon Prison Manager tell you the location of the seal holding the Demon Dragon King’s bloodline power?"

Lanling said, "No, but when I killed the Demon Dragon King’s clone, all its energy drilled into our bodies, along with parts of its memory. For instance, where it was slain by Emperor EYun and where it was sealed. We’re going to the Energy Prison containing the Last Demon Dragon King’s bloodline inheritance."

Lanling and the Witch Queen left the Eternal Curse World, flying towards a sea area in the northwest.

The coordinates of the Energy Prison sealing the Demon Dragon King’s bloodline are clear and precise in his mind.
