Chapter 2439 Return to Neptune

"Good! Good! Good! Very good! A mere demon king from the lower realm dares to provoke me like this? Does he really think my blade is ineffective?"

The Evil Spirit Demon Lord had already received the message and also heard the Sea Serpent King's provocative words before leaving through the recording stone.

"My lord, your subordinate is willing to go to Neptune and capture him!" one of the demon kings, who was at the half-step demon lord level, hurriedly spoke up.

"I am willing to go with you!" Another half-step demon lord stepped forward to express his opinion.

The Demon Lord's sharp gaze swept over these demon kings, and he said coldly, "With your strength, can you break through Neptune's protective array?"

"This..." The group of demon kings were speechless.

They weren't stupid; they all knew that Neptune's protective array was extremely powerful, and they had no way of breaking through it.

"Since they specifically requested that I go, then I will go myself."

"I have fully recovered, but I don't know if Neptune's protective array can stop me!" The Evil Spirit Demon Lord exuded a chilling killing intent; he had decided to personally go to Neptune.

"Immediately summon all fifth-tier demon kings to accompany me. I want all the demons of the Black Fiend Star River to know what the price will be for provoking me!" The Evil Spirit Demon King issued the order in an icy tone.

"Yes! I will arrange it immediately!" a demon king below hurriedly replied.

Soon, the Evil Demon Valley organized a large-scale operation to head to Neptune, while the Sea Serpent King and his men had already returned to Neptune.

However, because Little Red Star's teleportation array was destroyed, it took even longer.

When the Sea Serpent King and the Mermaid King returned to Neptune, a considerable amount of time had passed. This trip took the two demon kings two years, a year ahead of schedule.

Upon returning to Neptune, the Sea Serpent King and the Mermaid King immediately went to the Spiritless Land, where a star teleportation array was being set up, while the Demon King, whom they had captured, was made up for separately.

In the Spiritless Land, in the valley chosen as the location for the Starry Sky Teleportation Array, the main body of a massive Starry Sky Teleportation Array has been erected.

This enormous teleportation array is thousands of miles in diameter, occupying almost the entire basin.

Even though Sun Yi personally led the top elites of the Array Hall to set up the array, it will still take some time to complete the teleportation array.

Sun Yi, who was focused on setting up the formation, sensed the approaching Sea Serpent King and Mermaid King but didn't even look up, continuing to concentrate on inscribing the formation patterns.

The Sea Serpent King and the Mermaid King flew to Sun Yi's side and respectfully bowed to him, saying, "Greetings, Sect Leader."

"You've had a long journey, but you've returned a year ahead of schedule." Sun Yi glanced at the two demon kings before looking away.

The Sea Serpent King replied, "Some things went wrong on this trip, but it went more smoothly than planned, so we returned ahead of schedule."

"An unexpected turn of events? What happened?" Sun Yi asked curiously.

"It's like this..." The Sea Serpent King then recounted his experiences on the trip in detail to Sun Yi, without holding anything back from him and his companions.

It took them a full five hours to tell Sun Yi the complete details of their journey.

As Sun Yi continued setting up the formation, his mind raced, analyzing the intelligence he had gathered. After a moment, he smiled and nodded, "I didn't expect it to go even more smoothly than we planned."

"In this way, you can integrate into the Black Fiend Galaxy more quickly and accelerate our plans."

Sun Yi did not expect that the Sea Serpent King and the Mermaid King would encounter such a thing after they went out, but they did demonstrate their strength to the outside world through the previous battle.

It is believed that by this time, the demon race of the Black Fiend Galaxy had already taken them very seriously.

"Sect Leader, will my deliberate provocation of that evil spirit demon king bring trouble to the sect? After all, he is a top demon lord from the upper realm." The Sea Serpent King looked at Sun Yi with some concern.

Sun Yi smiled and waved his hand: "As long as it's not a demon lord who comes, there's nothing to worry about. We can handle it."

“Top-tier demon lords from the upper realm are treasures from head to toe. The Demon Locking Tower needs tenants like these.” Sun Yi’s lips curled up slightly. The demon power of a true demon lord is pure and can not only be used to cultivate the four major demon races, but also to refine demon spirit pills, which will greatly help the development of the Spirit Beast Hall of the Battle Sect.

Although there are already more than a hundred true demon lords in the Demon Locking Tower, Sun Yi will never complain about the number of demon lords. He hopes that there will be as many demon lords as possible in the Demon Locking Tower.

However, the number of true demon lords in the human realm is very small, and it is extremely rare to capture a large number of demon lords like before. Now that we have finally encountered a top-notch demon lord from the spirit realm in the Black Fiend Star River, we naturally have to invite him into the Demon Locking Tower.

"If what you say is true, this evil spirit demon lord has only recently regained his strength."

“A dignified demon lord of the spirit realm would usually be unable to resist being provoked like this, and there is a high probability that he would come to kill you.”

Sun Yi continued his analysis, concluding that this evil spirit demon lord would definitely attack them immediately.

"You should stay on Neptune and help out during this time. Although Neptune is currently under our control, it will take a lot of effort to truly take control of it."

"At the same time, you need to find out about the Black Fiend Star River, especially the Evil Demon Valley, and see what preparations they have made."

“They can’t teleport directly to Neptune; they must fly over from Taurus. You can notify Niu Shisan and have him bring his people here first. We’ll find him a place to settle down here.”

“This Niu Shisan is very pragmatic. As long as we give him the credit for the Extreme Spirit Abyss, I believe his status will be elevated after he arrives in the Spirit Realm, which will be helpful for your development in the Spirit Realm.”

"Yes, I will arrange it immediately." The Sea Serpent King nodded seriously.

"Compile a detailed list of all the major forces in the Black Fiend Star River and give it to me, especially the situation of these demon races in the Spirit Realm. If you can find out the details, then do so."

"Although the Extreme Spirit Abyss is of little use to us, it is very important to the other demon races. If we cooperate well with these demon races and their status is elevated after they ascend to the Spirit Realm, it will be of great help to our subsequent cooperation. I believe you understand this as well."

The Sea Serpent King nodded earnestly: "Understood. I will compile the detailed information by today."

"Okay, you guys go ahead and get busy."

Sun Yi nodded without saying anything more, and continued to focus on setting up the star formation. Just one day later, the Sea Serpent King delivered a detailed document to Sun Yi.

This document records the basic information of the various demon races in the Black Fiend Star River, including the basic situation of these demon races in the Spirit Realm. Sun Yi selected ten demon races, including the Sea Cow Clan, as partners from these races.
