Tales of Demons and Gods

“Who are you?” Patriarch Scarlet Python trembled. He never expected a group of human experts at the Dao of Dragon Realm to suddenly appear in Tiny World.

Tiny World was only one small part of the chiliocosm. None of the strongest experts in these worlds reached the Heavenly Star Realm. Other than sending a few disciples to Tiny World every year, the Six Divine Sects seldom paid attention to it.

Why did they send such a group of experts?

“What position do you have in the Demon God’s Sect?” Nie Li asked Patriarch Scarlet Python.

“Almighty one, I’m just a guard. The Demon God’s Sect sent me to watch Tiny World. I’m usually not stationed in Tiny World. It was only when the seal to Tiny World suddenly opened that I came here. Almighty ones, please forgive my faux pas,” Patriarch Scarlet Python said timidly, afraid that any verbal mistake he made would result in Nie Li obliterating him.

“A mere gatekeeper dares to be so arrogant in our Tiny World?” Lu Piao grunted. Although his comment wasn’t loud, it was like a thunderclap that struck Patriarch Scarlet Python’s heart, causing him to cough out blood.

Experts at the Dao of Dragon Realm were definitely invincible existences.

Nie Li grunted as a powerful intent enveloped Patriarch Scarlet Python.

“Almighty one, please spare my life… Please spare me!” Patriarch Scarlet Python wailed.

“I won’t kill you today, but you besieged my clansmen with the demon beasts. There is no writing it off!” Nie Li said in a deep voice. “Next, I will extract your primordial soul memories from your body.”

“Ah!” Patriarch Scarlet Python wailed. He saw primordial soul wisps drawn out from his body as they were absorbed by Nie Li’s body.

“Nie Li, what’s contained in his primordial soul memories?” Du Ze couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Xiao Ning’er, Ye Ziyun, and the others also looked at Nie Li. They had never heard of primordial soul memories.

“All of us have memories that are stored in our primordial soul. Once memories from it are extracted, one will forget everything that had happened in the past! Furthermore, I can know everything it knows,” Nie Li explained. “At the same time, I can take on its form, preventing the Demon God’s Sect from identifying me.”

“I see. So this is the effect of primordial soul memory extraction. Then, wouldn’t we be able to know everything about the Demon God’s Sect if we capture one of its experts?” Lu Piao asked in pleasant surprise.

“If you want to extract a person’s primordial soul memories, you need to be at least three levels stronger than them,” Nie Li said. “Ordinary lackeys like Patriarch Scarlet Python wouldn’t be privy to too much useful information.”

“I see, Nie Li, are you planning to transform into him and infiltrate the Demon God’s Sect?”

“Yes.” Nie Li nodded and said, “I want to enter the Demon God’s Sect so that I can obtain the information I want.”

“But it’s too dangerous to infiltrate the Demon God’s Sect,” Xiao Ning’er said worriedly, “What if you get discovered?”

“That’s right. There are many experts in the Demon God’s Sect, and some of them might know Patriarch Scarlet Python…” Ye Ziyun said worriedly.

“It’s alright. I have his memories, and my aura will be the same as his. I reckon that even his parents can’t tell. No one will be able to see through me,” Nie Li said with a confident smile.

“Nie Li, do you think Patriarch Scarlet Python has a wife? He might even have a group of demonesses at home. If you have to deal with all of them, won’t you die from exhaustion?” Lu Piao couldn’t help but quip.

“Lu Piao, what the hell is on your mind?” Xiao Xue gave him a hard knock.

“I’m not! I’m just worried that Nie Li will be in danger!” Lu Piao said with an aggrieved smile.

“Humph.” Xiao Xue snorted.

Nie Li couldn’t help but smile. “Don’t worry, everyone. If I get recognized, I have many ways of escaping. No matter what, it wouldn’t be a problem to flee.”

“I believe that no one can stop Nie Li once his mind is set on leaving,” said Lu Piao immediately.

Xiao Ning’er and Ye Ziyun felt relieved after some thought.

“Next, I have a few matters to settle.” Nie Li smiled mysteriously. He looked at Ye Ziyun with gentleness in his eyes. “I can finally do what I promised you.”

Ye Ziyun’s body trembled as she stared at him, her eyes brimming with tears.

“I’ll be spending a few days here to revive my father-in-law. Duan Jian, you can go deal with your matters during this period of time.”

Duan Jian was slightly taken aback as a cold glint flashed across his eyes. He then turned to look at Nie Li and spoke with a choked voice. “Thank you for giving me this chance to avenge my parents, Master.”

“Alright, go ahead. With your present strength, no one in the Abyss Prison Realm can stop you,” Nie Li said with a nod.

“Yes.” Duan Jian spread his wings and flew up. With a whoosh, a stream of light streaked across the sky. Following that, he could enter the Abyss Prison Realm through an array.

“Revive? Is it really possible?” Ye Mo looked at Nie Li, visibly moved.

“Yes, as long as there’s water from the Spring of Life, and I’ve already obtained it. Besides, we still have Father-in-law’s soul. Unfortunately, there’s only one set; otherwise, we can revive even more people,” Nie Li nodded and said solemnly.

Tears instantly welled up in Ye Mo’s eyes.

He had missed his dead son all this time. He was filled with immense regret, wishing that he was the one who had died in his stead. So how could he not be excited hearing that his son could be revived?

“Grandpa, if Nie Li says it can be done, he will definitely do it.” Ye Ziyun’s eyes were still filled with tears, but her tone was firm.

Looking at the haggard Ye Mo, Nie Li couldn’t help but feel emotional. He nodded confidently and said, “Grandpa, believe me. I can do it.”

“Okay.” Ye Mo nodded solemnly.

Ancestral Founder Ye Yan laughed out loud and said, “Good, very good. It’s great that that punk, Ye Zong, can come back to life.”

“Ancestral Founder Ye Yan, I’ll use this Spring of Life for Father-in-law first. I’ll try to find more for you in the future,” said Nie Li apologetically as he looked at Ye Yan.

“Hahaha, kid, I’m very happy that you still have me on your mind. However, I’m already used to this body. It’s not a bad thing being a Soul Puppet. It doesn’t matter when I get revived. Revive Ye Zong first,” Ye Yan said as he laughed out loud.

“Okay.” Nie Li nodded.
