Suddenly, Qingfeng Li rescinded his spirit energy and opened his eyes. He decided to first learn about the valleyâs location.
Qingfeng Li asked the Lingyun Emperor, âPlease give me the map of the Crimson Fire Continent.â
The Lingyun Emperor nodded and quickly went into another room.
From the room, he took out a giant map of the Crimson Fire Continent. The map was dozens of meters long, and it illustrated all of the Crimson Fire Continentâs sects and powers.
Qingfeng Li began to study the map carefully. Although he was now the Planet Ruler, he wasnât very familiar with its environment.
The Crimson Fire Continent was enormous. Other than its sky, its land, and its oceans, there were also a couple of forbidden grounds. These forbidden lands all contained immense powers, powers that were not under the jurisdiction of the Planet Ruler.
Qingfeng Li pointed at an area of the map that was brimming with devilish energy and said, âLingyun Emperor, where is this?â
Following Qingfeng Liâs finger, the Lingyun Emperor furrowed his brows as his face flushed pale. âPlanet Ruler, this is the Forbidden Grounds of Headless Devilish Dao, one of the Crimson Fire Continentâs three great forbidden grounds.â
Qingfeng Li furrowed his brows at the name. He had never heard of such a place.
He glanced at the Lingyun Emperor and continued to ask, âWhat are the three forbidden grounds of the Crimson Fire Continent? Whatâs in the Forbidden Grounds of Headless Devilish Dao? Be specific.â
The Lingyun Emperor nodded and explained, âEver since the birth of the Crimson Fire Continent, there exists three forbidden lands atop of it. All three forbidden lands are extremely powerful. No Planet Ruler has ever entered them. The three lands are named the Forbidden Ground of Headless Devilish Dao, Forbidden Grounds of Nine-headed Demonic Dao, and the Forbidden Grounds of Three-eyed Ghost Dao.â
At the sound of the three names, Qingfeng Li raised his brows and said, âThese three names have the words devilish, demonic, and ghost in them. If Iâm not mistaken, they are talking about the Devilish Dao, the Demonic Dao, and the Ghost Dao?â
The Lingyun Emperor nodded in admiration and said, âPlanet Ruler, you are correct. These three areas are the legendary homes of Devilish Dao, Demonic Dao, and Ghost Dao. No outsider is ever allowed. If they do enter, they would definitely get killed.â
Qingfeng Li nodded as he realized why Wutian Mo had entered the Forbidden Grounds of Headless Devilish Dao. Since he was practicing Devilish Dao techniques, he already carried devilish energies in his body.
Plus, Wutian Mo was ranked number one in the Devil Rankings, making him a wanted man for the Headless Forbidden Grounds of Devilish Dao.
Qingfeng Li was now worried for Wutian Mo, afraid for his life.
Qingfeng Li looked at the Lingyun Emperor as he thought for a moment. âAre you familiar with the powers of the Forbidden Grounds of Headless Devilish Dao?â
The Lingyun Emperor shook his head and said, âIâm donât know much about the place. But from what Iâve heard, the ruler of the Headless Forbidden Grounds of Devilish Dao is similar to the Planet Ruler of our world. They have also reached the saint level and are incredibly powerful. The only difference is that theyâre Devilish Saints.â
Qingfeng Li nodded and said, âSince they are of the saint level, there is no need for us to be afraid. I am also at the saint level. You guys wait here. Iâm going to go meet them.â
âQingfeng Li, Iâll go with you,â said Xue Lin.
Qingfeng Li shook his head. âBaby, your cultivation isnât strong enough yet. Itâs too dangerous. Iâll be okay with the puppy and the snake.â
Wagging its tail, Black Puppy said, âDonât worry, Iâll take care of Qingfeng Li.â
Xue Lin rolled her pretty eyes and said, âYouâre not even as strong as my husband. Who are you kidding?â
Black Puppy laughed awkwardly and shut its mouth instantly. He really wasnât as strong as Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li reached out his right hand and created a large hole in space. He then stepped out his right foot and entered into the new dimension.
Qingfeng Liâs body transformed into a light stream, traveling through dimensions. Following him was Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake.
A little while after, Qingfeng Li arrived at the outskirts of the Headless Forbidden Grounds of Devilish Dao.
As they reached the outskirts of the forbidden grounds, Qingfeng Li halted his footsteps. He could clearly feel the massive amounts of devilish energy hidden within the Headless Forbidden Grounds of Devilish Dao.
The devilish energy shook the skies and the grounds, ripping apart space with its surging devilish energies. Within it stood a giant faint devilish shadow.
Behind the devilish shadow were endless amounts of Devilish Monarchs, Devilish Supremes, Devilish Generals, and Devilish Soldiers. Every one of them was drenched in black energy, striking fear into its observers.
Qingfeng Li channeled his clairvoyance ability, unleashing a golden light as he looked right through the dimension and discovering within the giant canyon a hidden underworld.
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly and said, âInteresting. I didnât expect for a forbidden ground of Devilish Dao to be hidden so deep beneath the ground.â
Qingfeng Li had already felt a trace of Wutian Moâs energy from the Forbidden Grounds of Headless Devilish Dao. He took a step out and began walking towards the canyon.
Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake followed closely, both channeling their demonic energies, vigilant as ever.
Qingfeng Li barely took one step before he felt the chilling energy from the air. Suddenly, countless devilish energies rushed out at him, wanting to raid his body.
Qingfeng Li smiled lightly and said mockingly, âFools. Youâre too weak to enter my body.â
Qingfeng Li channeled his fire-type energy, forming a fireball atop his palm and throwing it forward. The fireball transformed into an Inferno Realm, torching the surrounding devilish energies instantly, destroying their existences.
As Qingfeng Li walked forward, a giant Devil Monarch appeared in front of him. The Monarch was very tall, reaching more than 100 feet in height. Holding an enormous sickle, the Monarchâs entire body exuded devilish energies.
The Devil Monarchâs abilities had reached stage nine of the Monarch Realm, making him the leader of all the devils.
âHuman, you shouldnât be here. Hurry up and leave!â The Devilish Monarch commanded.
Qingfeng Liâs eyes shot a ray of black light onto the Devilish Monarchâs head, blowing it apart, turning it into millions of black light dots, and eliminating its existence.
Sensing Qingfeng Liâs powers, the surrounding devil energies all backed away. Being ordinary devilish energies, they couldnât defend against Qingfeng Liâs saint level abilities.
In the blink of an eye, Qingfeng Li arrived at the middle of the giant canyon.
Within the middle ground was a devilish energy array formation composed of the devil lines from stars. In every direction was a devilish stone. Qingfeng Li had to break the devilish energy array formation if he wanted to enter the underground area.
He looked at it carefully and found that it was a half-step saint array formation. Ordinary self-cultivators couldnât enter it even if they made their way to the entrance. They would also need deep knowledge in the ways of Devilish Dao.
Luckily, not only was Qingfeng Li well-versed in array formations, he was familiar with the ways of the Devilish Dao. He knew this near-saint devilish energy array formation like the back of his hand.
He reached out his right index finger and dotted the four corners of the array formation with his Dragon Bone, instantly shattering its array points and forming a massive hole.
He smashed his saint level palm downwards, blowing up the devilish energy array formation instantly. Suddenly, a giant cave entrance appeared. It seemed to lead underground.
