The Story Never Ends

"But there are some things I need to do before opening up the portal." He sat cross-legged on the ground and set his sights on his panel. There he saw a new text at the bottom.

"Flame Cauldron Art"

Indeed, this was the flame-attributed spiritual art given by Elder Vance a while ago.

"Currently I have no experience points to learn it. Nonetheless, this is not a problem." He took out the bottle of pills he got earlier and swallowed them all.

His experience points increased swiftly and he finally focused on the art when he had enough points. A lot of information and experience of this technique were automatically poured into his mind.

Only after a few minutes, did it stop..

"It's done." He smiled and looked at his index finger.

"Swish"

A tiny blood coloured flame lit up, and he could feel the temperature of the surroundings increasing at a rapid rate. Moreover, the space around his finger was also being distorted.

"This flame is not like the usual flames. The colour is different, and it especially contains tremendous power. Are these the benefits provided by my bloodline? Or is it due to the weird tattoo?" He withdrew his flame and pondered.

He knew that his bloodline was weak and thus it should have been impossible for it to boost his flame to such an extent. He was sure that there was something more to it.

"Haiz, let's forget about it. I can't come up with an exact answer." He let go of this matter for the time being and began casting the devil summoning spell.

It had been a long time since he last used the devil summoning spell. This was because summoning devil commanders had become useless to him as they would only give him a negligible number of experience points. Only devil kings and devils stronger than them were worthwhile.

However, summoning them is in fact very difficult. This is due to the fact that it is extremely difficult to fool them as they are quite intelligent like humans. In addition to it, they require a lot of spiritual energy to summon them. Not only that, it is dangerous to summon them inside the sect. Who knew if the elders would find out and label him as a cultist?

"Creak"

The space ahead of him cracked, and he sent a part of his spiritual energy into it. He then waited for a couple of minutes, but there was no response coming from inside.

"What happened? Although I heard that most of the devil kings are busy attacking the middle-grade sects all around the world, there must still be a large number of devil kings staying in the devil world. After all, the Devil World is as big as our world," he thought.

He waited for a few more minutes, but nothing happened.

"I can only give up." He shook his head in disappointment and stopped channelling his spiritual energy. He was about to stand up when suddenly the crack started shaking instead of closing.

"This.." His expression instantly became ugly with this sudden change.

"Who summoned me, the Devil King Heaven Devourer?"

Davion became speechless when he heard this voice. It looked like his summoning had worked. Yet, he couldn't understand why he got such a late response.

Nonetheless, he didn't ask this question but rather politely answered, "I, Davion, a lowly cultivator from the human world requests for your audience."

"Is that so? But I can't go there right now. You need to send me more of your Qi," The Devil King replied.

"Lord, but I have already spent a lot of my Qi. Why doesn't the Lord use your own Qi to come here by yourself? I have already prepared a huge meal ready for you; a Nascent Soul Stage demon beast core and there are a lot of human settlements nearby too." Davion tried to allure him with this offer.

"Humm, I could have considered that if I was in my peak state. However, I am injured right now due to a battle, and I need your Qi to recover," The Devil King said in a sad tone.

"Damn." Davion became furious when he heard this. Now he finally knew why there was no reaction coming from inside the crack. This devil was devouring his spiritual energy from the start and trying to recover with it.

"Bastard. How dare he trick me?" He cursed and took out all the attacking talismans that he had collected from his spirit ring.

"Lord, I am going to send you, my Qi. Please recover as fast as you can." Davion burnt all the talismans and threw them inside.

Inside the Devil World,

In the outskirts of an old and worn-out city, there was a small inn where different types of devils were entering and leaving. Some looked like humans while some looked like beasts. If any human were here, then they would definitely get scared out of their wits as they were all either devil kings or devil commanders.

In one of the rooms, an old man wearing a green cloak was sitting in a lotus position. A small crack could be seen ahead of him.

"Haha, it's easy to fool humans these days. Who could have thought that I would get blessed by such a pure Qi out of nowhere?" The old man chuckled inwardly while gazing at the crack intently.

"It's coming." His eyes sparkled as he sensed some movement from within.

"Eh!"

"What are these?" Burning papers fell one by one from the crack.

"Don't tell me…" He recognized them when he touched one. But he couldn't react as they all activated at the same time.

"BOOOM"

A huge explosion took place, and the whole inn was turned into dust.

***

"Haha, I earned a lot of experience points. I am close to level 37 now." Davion laughed loudly like a mad man.

"It would have been even better if I could have gone there myself. But it's too dangerous for me at present. From what I have heard only cultivators above the Domain Realm can enter the void. Maybe I can try to go there in the future." He made up his mind.

"Nevertheless, the sad thing is that summoning a Devil King is out of the question. They are too cunning." He shook his head.

"Now I should begin." He stood up and pulled down the upper part of his robe revealing the white cloth covering his chest. He then tore it apart and threw it to the ground.

One could see a glistening red tattoo spreading from his chest all the way to the right arm. It was completely black a week ago. But it has changed after absorbing the elementary fire particles from the air.

Next, he infused all his spiritual energy into his chest, and it began to burn. Flames emerged, and they began spreading all over his body.

"Ahh.."

"It's painful. I have to do this fast." So, without wasting any time, he simply grabbed the air infront of him and pulled it down.

The space cracked again but it was very large compared to earlier. He then rushed into it.

***

"Bang"

A ball of fire fell down from the sky and landed deep inside the ground.

"Where am I?" Davion looked at the sun in the sky and went into deep thought.

"Did I really reach the Demon Beast World?" He didn't sense anything unusual from the Human World. The surroundings, the aura of heavens and earth and the sky, all looked the same.

He then slowly crawled outside and looked where he was. He found himself in a beautiful forest with not a single demon beast close by.

"Strange.." he muttered while using his Mind-Eye to scan the surroundings.

"There are no demon beasts here. But there is a unique formation a kilometre away. Even my Mind-Eye can't see past it. It looks like I have to go there and check." He looked in that direction with a solemn look on his face.

"But before that, I need to take care of myself." He glanced at his body and found that he was completely naked. Some parts of his body were burnt, and the tattoo had returned back to normal. Not only that, but the elementary flame particles in the air were again slowly gathering into his tattoo.

"It seems like I can only go back after it gets charged again." He now had a better understanding of this tattoo. He then took out a new set of robes from his spirit ring and put it on.

After making sure everything was ready, he was about to leave. But suddenly he remembered something really important.

"Where is the lamp?"

He hurriedly turned back and looked into the pit. There he found the lamp lying on the rubble.

"Phew," He sighed in relief and picked it up.

"Joanna, you can come out now." He rubbed its surface and she emerged outside.

"Master." She bowed her head respectfully.

"I want you to scout that area from a distance," Davion ordered while pointing his finger in that direction.

"I understand." Joanna flapped her wings and soared straight into the sky.

"It is better to be careful. If this is in fact the Demon Beast World, then a big demon flying in the sky wouldn't be unusual," Davion smiled.
