Tales of Demons And Gods

Glory City

Nie Li stood above City Lord Mansion, watching the distant teams migrate out of sight, leaving only the desolate Glory City standing in the cold wind, looking exceptionally lonely.

This was the last group from Glory City to migrate to the Divine Feathers Sect.

Over the past few days, Nie Li and the others had plundered the entire Tiny World before the barrier closed. They had also obtained many top-notch treasures. With these treasures, Nie Li and the others' strength had risen to another level.

*Wooooooosh!*

At that moment, a figure landed beside Nie Li. It was Du Ze.

"Nie Li, all the citizens of Glory City have already migrated to the Divine Feathers Sect. I've arranged for powerful guards from the Divine Feathers Sect on the way. Lord Ye Mo, City Lord Ye Zong, and Ancestor Ye Yan have also followed. The Divine Feathers Sect has already prepared many resources and treasure.

I believe their strength will quickly increase once they reach the Divine Feathers Sect," Du Ze said to Nie Li.

Nie Li nodded.

Glory City was humanity's last stand against demon beasts. Although the Demon Spiritualists who survived here didn't have high cultivation levels, they were the most resolute. Otherwise, they wouldn't have survived countless demon beast hordes.

In Tiny World, these Demon Spiritualists were limited by their limited resources. At best, they could only cultivate to the Legend rank. However, once they reached the Draconic Ruins Realm, he believed that with their talents, they would quickly develop their full potential.

"Du Ze, thank you for the past two days. Lu Piao and the others have been cultivating in the Temporal Demon Spirit Book. Try to reach the Martial Ancestor realm as soon as possible," Nie Li said with a smile.

"For Glory City, this is my duty." Du Ze nodded and said, "Nie Li, you must be careful. I feel that our actions in Tiny World might have attracted some attention."

Nie Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm prepared."

Observing Nie Li's confident smile, Du Ze's worries dissipated significantly. He grinned.

"Since you're prepared, I'm relieved!" Du Ze said.

With a wave of his hand, Nie Li retrieved the Temporal Demon Spirit Book, instantly ensnaring Du Ze within.

Looking at the empty Glory City below, Nie Li felt an inexplicable sense of disappointment. This was the last human city in Tiny World and it was also the place where Nie Li was born and raised. Nie Li still felt a little reluctant to leave this place.

However, it was all worth it to resist the Sage Emperor.

*Wooooooosh!*

Nie Li vanished and entered the Temporal Demon Spirit Book.

Within the Temporal Demon Spirit Book.

The endless spacetime was divided into independent and sealed spaces, like an independent small world, undisturbed by each other.

Nie Li hovered in the sky, gazing down at his companions. He could see them, but the others couldn't see him.

Within the Temporal Demon Spirit Book, Nie Li was an omnipotent deity.

Lu Piao and the others were cultivating cross-legged, exuding a terrifying aura.

"Hahaha, watch my invincible Divine Dragon Spear!"

Suddenly, Lu Piao roared and leaped up. His eyes sparkled as the Demon Spirit power in his body surged into his wielded Chaos Divine Dragon Spear. A terrifying divine light instantly lit up on the spear.

"Hey!"

Lu Piao thrust his spear forward, and with a resounding boom, a colossal gold dragon soared into the sky, crashing into a distant mountain peak.

*Rumble!* *Rumble!* *Rumble!*

The dragon transformed into a terrifying burst of divine power, causing the mountain peak to collapse instantly, forming a terrifying mess of rocks. The power was terrifying, and the entire mountain peak was flattened from the middle.

Lu Piao's jaw dropped as he observed the results. He scratched his head before smirking smugly. "Heh heh, I, Lu Piao, am indeed a genius. I managed to master the Chaos Divine Dragon Spear so quickly. I reckon even Martial Ancestor realm experts won't dare to be impudent in front of me now."

Lu Piao hefted the divine spear in his hand and muttered, "It's a pity Nie Li isn't here. Otherwise, he would have been defeated by my talent!"

Nie Li: "…"

Swoosh!

Goddess Yu Yan instantly appeared beside Nie Li. "Nie Li, this Temporal Demon Spirit Book is indeed magical. I reckon it won't be long before your companions step into the Martial Ancestor realm."

Nie Li nodded and looked to the other side. Ziyun sat cross-legged, levitating in midair. The necklace around her neck floated, emitting endless light that enveloped her. Countless divine power of snow and wind surrounded her, making her look like a goddess.

With the enhancement of the Wind and Snow Necklace, Ziyun's cultivation had improved significantly. She was probably only a step away from the Martial Ancestor realm.

Nie Li shifted his gaze towards Xiao Ning'er. His eyes widened, and blood threatened to gush from his nose.

In that space, Xiao Ning'er wore only a vibrant inner armor, as if studying something.

The inner armor was exceedingly alluring, resembling a form-fitting leather armor that accentuated Xiao Ning'er's graceful figure. It was curvaceous and exceedingly alluring.

Complex and beautiful inscriptions were engraved on the inner armor. Xiao Ning'er made hand seals and tried to activate it, but she couldn't.

"This inner armor is too strange. I can't seem to activate it with the Demon Spirit power. I don't know how to activate it." Xiao Ning'er held her chin. She had tried many times but couldn't activate the inner armor.

"If only Nie Li were here. He definitely knows how to activate this inner armor," Xiao Ning'er muttered. Recalling Nie Li's promise to help her take a look at it tonight, she couldn't help but blush.

"I'm right here."

At that moment, a voice echoed in Xiao Ning'er's ears, startling her. Nie Li suddenly appeared beside her and approached with a smile. "This is the Divine Soul Armor. It should have been left behind by an ancient powerhouse. Of course, you can't activate it with the power of the Demon Spirit. You have to use Soul Force."

Soul Force? Xiao Ning'er pondered for a moment and immediately injected her Soul Force into the inner armor, but nothing happened.

"There's a unique soul incantation for activating the Divine Soul Armor. You definitely won't be able to activate it with ordinary Soul Force like this. Come, let me teach you."

Nie Li pressed his finger against Xiao Ning'er's glabella. The touch of his finger made her tremble slightly, and her face instantly turned red.

However, in the next moment, a complex soul incantation was transmitted. Xiao Ning'er focused slightly and quickly grasped it in her mind.

"Try again," Nie Li said with a smile.

Xiao Ning'er acknowledged and followed Nie Li's instructions to gather her Soul Force. Suddenly, the inscriptions on her inner armor lit up and swam rapidly, emitting a resplendent light.

The Storm Winged Dragon Technique in her body couldn't help but circulate. Her Soul Realm trembled continuously, and there was a faint sound of wind and lightning. A powerful aura surged from her inner armor.

A ray of green light soared into the sky, and a powerful aura spread in all directions.

Light swirled over Xiao Ning'er's inner armor, resembling a cyan glow. It swiftly transformed into two powerful soul wings, forming a terrifying soul storm around her.

Vaguely, the cry of a phoenix reverberated through the world.

"Blue Luan Phoenix Armor!"

Nie Li was taken aback. He hadn't expected Xiao Ning'er to obtain such a piece. This Soul Armor was a top-notch Divine Soul Armor. It had the effect of resurrecting the dead, akin to a phoenix undergoing nirvana.

Slivers of cyan-red light radiated, illuminating Xiao Ning'er's fair skin, making her appear exceptionally holy, like a celestial fairy descending from the heavens.

What a formidable Soul Force!

Xiao Ning'er felt her Soul Force multiply under the amplification of the inner armor. With a thought, a terrifying soul storm transformed into wings that slashed out, splitting an invisible ripple in the void.

Goddess Yu Yan appeared and exclaimed, "I reckon even a Martial Ancestor realm expert won't be able to withstand such a soul attack easily."

Sensing their arrival, Xiao Ning'er realized that she was only wearing an inner armor, exposing a large portion of her skin. She blushed and hurriedly put away the Blue Luan Phoenix Armor, donning a coat.

Nie Li couldn't help but glance at Goddess Yu Yan. She had come at the wrong time.

"Nie Li, have all the people in Glory City migrated?" Xiao Ning'er blushed and quickly changed the subject.

"They've all relocated." Nie Li smiled and said, "With them, our Divine Feathers Sect's strength will definitely increase significantly in time. However, we still need more powerhouses to resist the Demon God's Sect and the Sage Emperor."

"Where can I find so many powerful individuals?" Xiao Ning'er couldn't help but furrow her brow.

"Actually, there's another place in the Tiny World where there are many Fighters. If we migrate them to the Draconic Ruins Realm and focus on nurturing them, we'll have enough powerhouses," Nie Li said with a smile.

"You mean?" Goddess Yu Yan and Xiao Ning'er pondered for a moment before their eyes lit up. "The Nether Realm?"

Demon beasts wreaked havoc. In addition to Glory City, a large number of experts from various races had gathered in the Nether Realm. Nie Li and the others had traveled through the Nether Realm to the Draconic Ruins Realm.

Nie Li smiled and said, "That's right, it's the Nether Realm. However, we have to hurry. Otherwise, when Tiny World's barrier closes again, we won't be able to take so many people away."

"Yu Yan, come with me. Ning'er, continue cultivating here and strive to break through to the Martial Ancestor realm as soon as possible."

With that, Nie Li and the Goddess Yu Yan vanished.

"I'll definitely break through as soon as possible," Xiao Ning'er said with determination, clenching her fists as she looked at the spot where Nie Li had vanished.

In the underground world, at the entrance to the Nether Realm.

*Woosh!* *Woosh!*

Nie Li and Goddess Yu Yan transformed into two streams of light and appeared.

With their current cultivation levels, it would only take them a moment to travel from Glory City to the Nether Realm.

"Eh, why isn't there anyone in the Nether Realm?"

However, when Nie Li and the Goddess Yu Yan flew into the Nether Realm, their expressions changed. The Nether Realm, once bustling with experts from various races, was now lifeless. No one was there.

"What's going on?"

Nie Li swiftly flew deeper into the Nether Realm.

Soon, Nie Li arrived at Blackrock City, one of the Nether Realm's 15 majestic cities. Back then, this was Nie Li's first stop in the Nether Realm.

However, the streets of Blackrock City were empty. The taverns and family strongholds were empty.

Including the former three aristocratic families of Blackrock City, the Blood Demon clan, the Wugui Family, and the Jade Seal Family's encampment, they were all empty.

"Could something have happened to the Nether Realm?"

Nie Li looked up and swiftly scanned the entire Nether Realm with his divine consciousness. He recalled that in his previous life, Glory City had been engulfed by a demon beast horde. His master hadn't taken action to the very end. Could something have happened to his master?

With this in mind, Nie Li's heart tightened as he hurriedly flew towards the Nine-Layered Deathlands at the core of the Nether Realm.
