As soon as these words were spoken, Ye Chen, Ye Feng, and An Miaohan all looked at this mysterious elder with incomparable shock.

This elder’s current soul strength already had the strength of a Transcending Tribulation Realm.

However, with such powerful strength, he was merely a servant of the Demon Emperor?

Then, just how powerful was the Demon Emperor back then?

Just how terrifying was the Demon Emperor?

“Since that’s the case, how should we address you?” Ye Chen asked in puzzlement.

“You don’t need to care about my name. Just remember that I’m only the guardian of this forbidden land!” The old man said with a smile.

“Guardian?” Ye Chen immediately asked in puzzlement when he heard this.

“Yes, guardian.” The old man slowly nodded and said.

“Then why are you here?” Ye Chen looked at the old man and asked.

At this moment, the guardian slowly said, “Back then, after the Demon Emperor ascended and left, he left me here in order to give the inheritance of this forbidden land to those who could reach here!”

“The inheritance of the forbidden land?”

The moment these words were said.

The three of them were extremely shocked.

This was indeed a forbidden land.

However, this place was left behind by the Demon Emperor. Moreover, it was an extremely terrifying forbidden land. They had long sensed this point.

However, they had never thought that this forbidden land actually had other uses.

When they heard this, Ye Chen and the other two’s gazes were all placed on the gigantic stone tablet.

The mysterious and complex runes engraved on the stone tablet were all extremely profound. They were like ancient characters, causing them to feel traces of a dangerous aura.

“Since the three of you are able to enter, it means that you are able to obtain this inheritance!” The old man said.

“Why?” Ye Chen looked at the mysterious old man in surprise.

The protector smiled and said, “When the Demon Emperor left, he clearly told me to hand this inheritance over to the human race!”

“Hand it over to the human race?”

When this was said, Ye Chen and the others were even more puzzled.

Why did the Demon Race’s inheritance have to be handed over to the human race?

When he thought of this, Ye Chen’s heart was filled with shock.

“Why did the Demon Race choose to hand over the inheritance to the human race?” Ye Chen looked at the old man and asked in puzzlement.

“Hahaha…because the first Demon Emperor was a human!” The old man immediately said.

As soon as he said this.

Ye Chen and the others were extremely shocked.

The three of them looked at each other.

“What’s going on?” Ye Chen asked in surprise.

The old man looked at Ye Chen and asked, “Actually, the demons aren’t of the same race. They’re just cultivators who cultivate another cultivation technique. However, people regard the cultivation technique cultivated by the demons as a demonic technique, an evil technique.

“I’m afraid that you humans also have Demons!”

The old man looked at Ye Chen and asked.

Ye Chen nodded. This was natural.

The three of them who were standing in front of the old man had all cultivated the Heavenly Demon technique and were also known as Demons.

The old man continued, “Those who cultivate Qi techniques are known as immortals while those who cultivate Demon techniques are known as Demons. The first Demon Emperor created the Demon technique and after cultivating the Demon technique, he became a Demon!”

“After he became a Demon, he was not tolerated by the world. Later on, more and more living beings and humans cultivated all kinds of Demon techniques. There were also some who went astray and eventually became Demons. Demons were not tolerated by people in this world.

“Therefore, those people from the righteous path and all kinds of races in the Upper Realm chased after us Demons!”

“The Demon Emperor knew that the Great Dao had different paths and had the same destination. Regardless of whether one cultivated Demon or immortal, they could eventually attain the Great Dao. Why was it that the world did not tolerate this Demon? Hence, he united all the Demons in the world and finally formed the Demon Race. He was also respectfully called the Demon Emperor! At this point, he was the first Demon Emperor of the Demon Race!”

The old man immediately explained.

After Ye Chen and the others heard this, they could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

So, there were actually so many secrets hidden in this world.

“Hence, after the Demon Emperor ascended, he said that these inheritances could only be passed on to the human race!”

The old man looked at Ye Chen and the others and said slowly.

At this moment, Ye Chen nodded. So there was actually such a secret.

“Later on, the human race became fewer and fewer in this world. The Demon Race also formed a race. Hence, all these years, the Demon Emperor has never obtained such an inheritance.

“I originally thought that this inheritance would probably never be obtained by anyone.

“I didn’t expect that in this Upper Realm where there are no humans, it would actually give me a pleasant surprise!” The old man looked at Ye Chen and the others and said.

“Next, I will pass the inheritance to you!

“The three of you sit under this stone tablet. This stone tablet will give you different inheritances according to your circumstances!”

Ye Chen and the others nodded.

The three of them came under the stone tablet.

A mysterious aura immediately erupted.

At this moment, the old man immediately said, “Oh, right, the Demon Emperor once said that anyone who comes here can obtain his cultivation technique!”

“What cultivation technique?” Ye Chen asked.

The mysterious old man immediately said, “That’s the cultivation technique he created. It’s called the Heavenly Demon Technique!”

“Heavenly Demon Technique?”

The moment he said this, the three of them were extremely shocked.

Could it be that the Heavenly Demon technique they cultivated was created by this Demon Emperor?

How did the Heavenly Demon technique appear in the Lower Realm?

Could it be that this Demon Emperor had once stayed in the Lower Realm?

The Heavenly Demon technique that Ye Chen and the others cultivated was originally an incomplete cultivation technique. When Ye Chen was in the Lower Realm, he felt that this Heavenly Demon technique was as powerful as the cultivation technique that Ye Chen had signed in.

Ye Chen knew just how powerful this Heavenly Demon technique was.

So this Heavenly Demon technique was created by this first generation Demon Emperor.

It seemed like all of this was a choice made by fate.

Ye Chen and the others sat down cross-legged.

At this moment, on the stone tablet, streams of aura surged into the three people’s minds.

Ye Chen was somewhat surprised.

Was this the Demon Emperor’s inheritance?

These auras all surged into Ye Chen’s body.

Ye Chen felt countless different kinds of powers fusing into his blood.

“These powers are so powerful!”

Ye Chen exclaimed.

At this moment, Ye Chen and the other two were already in a state of cultivation.

The three of them were digesting these auras while simultaneously comprehending them.

At this moment, Ye Chen realized that this information was the Heavenly Demon technique.

However, it was different from the Heavenly Demon technique that Ye Chen and the others cultivated. This was because the Heavenly Demon technique was more comprehensive, filling in all the unknowns.

Ye Chen also realized.

The Heavenly Demon technique that he had cultivated before seemed to be only the upper part.

The lower part that he had accepted now was even more mysterious and powerful.

“Is this the true Heavenly Demon technique?” Ye Chen asked in shock.

The Heavenly Demon technique that he had previously cultivated was only the upper part. It could only be considered as the beginning of his cultivation.

But now, this Heavenly Demon technique was the complete cultivation technique. Furthermore, it had a lower part.

“If we follow what the Heavenly Demon Technique says, every time I break through a level, the efficiency of my cultivation will increase by a lot. Looks like this Demon Emperor’s talent is indeed extraordinary!” Ye Chen said secretly.
