Chapter 845 - Ping Shan Demonic Island
The Ping Shan Demonic Island was the largest and strongest demonic island in this domain.
The king of the Ping Shan Demonic Domain lived here—Demon Venerable Ping Shan.
The island resembled a self-contained world, teeming with experts and vast resources. Everything imaginable could be found here.
At the island's outskirts, experts arrived in droves, worn from their travels. They came in chariots or astride massive demons, exuding an imposing aura.
Yet, the island’s residents were unperturbed. Such arrivals were a common sight every century. Except for the young people below a hundred years old, the other experts had long since gotten used to it.@@@@
Furthermore, as the strongest demonic island of the Ping Shan Demonic Domain, the island was home to the strongest demon sect and the most resources. The influx and outflow of people were already overwhelming, not to mention it was the once-a-century Demonic Child Selection Battle.
Whenever this grand occasion happened, similar scenes would unfold across the demonic domains of the Myriad Demon Islands.
In the skies above the demonic island, Chen Fan and his group traveled through the air.
“Demon King, aren’t there too many people here?”
As Chen Fan approached the Ping Shan Demonic Island, he noticed the skies teeming with experts heading in the same direction. When he set foot on the demonic island, the sky was still densely packed, with experts arriving everywhere.
“How could it be otherwise for the Demonic Child Selection Battle? Every demonic island and demon sect wants to participate. If someone under their banner shines and gains the demon venerable’s favor, it would greatly benefit their faction,” Demon King Xuan Ting said in a low voice.
In the Xuan Ting Demonic Island, Xuan Ting’s word was law; here, even kings like him were as common as carps in a river. Consequently, Chen Fan’s group barely stood out.
“Father, where are we going?” asked Princess Xuan Shitong, still leaning close to Chen Fan.
“Let’s rest at a restaurant first,” he decided.
Demon King Xuan Ting and the group came to the Listening Rain Inn. Now that the selection battle was about to begin, most inns were packed. After checking several places, they finally secured the last available courtyard at the Listening Rain Inn.
Chen Fan and the others checked in, with Xuan Shitong kept pulling Chen Fan by her side, leaving him unsure whether to laugh or cry.
Chen Fan wanted to decline her offer, but before he could, she grabbed his arm and pulled him outside.
Demon King Xuan Ting saw Chen Fan and Xuan Shitong walking out and said with a smile, “Girl, take Xiaofan to the Four Demons Cave for the test to qualify for entry into the Sky Suspended Demon Palace.”
He was very satisfied with Chen Fan as his son-in-law.
......
On the Ping Shan Demonic Island, the Sky Suspended Demon Palace was the island’s most iconic structure.
While the Myriad Demon Islands’ millions of islands floated in the Endless Sea, the Sky Suspended Demon Palace floated atop the Ping Shan Demonic Island as if detached from the world. This palace was the residence of Demon Venerable Ping Shan.
Even with Xuan Shitong taking the lead, it took them quite a while to reach the vast demon palace suspended in the sky. Majestic and imposing, the Sky Suspended Demon Palace was a world of its own, revered and gazed upon by countless onlookers.
The Sky Suspended Demon Palace had heavenly stairs on four sides, leading to grand demon sect palaces, each housing one of the Four Great Demon Warlords—figures of immense strength, all at the peak of the Manifestation realm. These powerful beings were unrivaled in their might.
“Demonic architecture sure is domineering.” Chen Fan sighed in admiration, impressed by the palace's grandeur and the heavenly stairs that showcased its power and prestige.
He could see countless prides of heaven in his surroundings.
Here, experts were truly as common as the clouds. Many had come to pay homage, while others sought to secure their place in the Demonic Child Selection Battle.
Although the Demonic Child Selection Battle was open to the entire Ping Shan Demonic Domain, not just anyone could go up into that demon palace suspended in the air.
Chen Fan’s gaze shifted ahead, where a demon cave sat outside the palace—an odd sight that caught his attention.
“That is the Four Demons Cave,” Xuan Shitong explained, clearly familiar with the place. “It’s the renowned Thousand Arts Demon Cave of the Ping Shan Demonic Island, heavily guarded by experts.
“Normally, it serves as a test for the four demon sects to recruit disciples. Anyone who can emerge from the cave within the allotted time earns the right to serve one of the Four Great Demon Warlords under the demon venerable.
“But during the once-a-century Demonic Child Selection Battle, the cave becomes a test to qualify for entry into the Sky Suspended Demon Palace. It’s used to weed out those unworthy of participating.”
