Chapter 112: Endless Spirit Mountain II
Chapter 112: Endless Spirit Mountain II"So that’s how it is," Daniel muttered as he read the reply someone had left on his comment, shaking his head.
It became clear that demons had a ranking system: Lesser Demons, Greater Demons, Noble Demons, Demon Dukes, Demon Emperors, Ancient Demons, and at the very top, Primal Demons.
The rankings were based on blood purity and power. An Ancient Demon was said to be on par with a Heavenly Climber.
It was said that Ancient Demons possessed a hereditary blood trait—immortality—similar to the immortality of Corrupted Beasts.
More specifically, their bodies carried the Law of Eternity. Their very existence was a natural source of a supreme law of eternity.
This made them not only one of the most powerful races in the world but also highly sought after.
Unfortunately, because of their immense power, no one dared even think about hunting them.
Still, there was a rumor—a wild one—that the corpse of an Ancient Demon was located in the Endless Spirit Mountain. Most considered the rumor laughable and baseless.
But what if it were true? If someone could find and study that corpse, they might be able to uncover the secret behind the immortality and its supreme source.
Even Daniel found himself tempted. He had always been obsessed with longevity and immortality. Unfortunately, he wasn’t strong enough to venture into the mountain’s core to locate the corpse.
After that, he closed the Online Community and went to sleep. He had to wake up early in the morning to return to the Celestial Domain.
Hours passed slowly as the moon gave way to the sun. Sunlight gently woke Daniel up.
He got out of bed and stretched a bit before heading downstairs for breakfast. The others were still asleep.
No surprise there. They had all stayed up late last night—apparently playing games? Daniel didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Even his mom had joined the two girls in playing.
After finishing breakfast, he went back upstairs, changed clothes, and put on his protective armor.
Luckily, returning to the Celestial Domain for the second time didn’t require using the Tower—he could enter from anywhere.
But before that...
"Azrak, come out," he summoned Azrak.
Upon being summoned, Azrak knelt before him. Even while kneeling, his head nearly touched the ceiling and looked like it might bring it down.
"Can you shrink yourself?" Daniel asked.
"Yes, my Lord," Azrak nodded and shrunk himself, his height dropping from three meters to two.
"That’s better. Alright, I want you to protect my family while I’m gone," Daniel said. Last time, he hadn’t left a guard behind, but this time he preferred to be cautious.
Especially since Tiana’s parents might show up. It was better to be safe.
"You know what? Pride should stay here too," he added after a moment of thought.
"I want one of you to protect my mom, and the other to protect my sister and her friend."
"My Lord, there’s no need to worry! I’ll protect them with my life!" Pride nodded respectfully.
Even if something happened, they could contact him—or he could see everything through the Fallen Vision.
’I want to enter the Celestial Domain.’
[ Processing request... ]
[ Are you sure you want to enter the Celestial Domain? ]
Daniel clicked on "Yes," and suddenly a light engulfed him. The scenery around him shifted, and in the next moment, he found himself back in the streets of Erin Free Zone.
Right where he had said goodbye to Eva. Wasting no time, Daniel began
It made him wonder—did that mean danger zone or something?
Eerie howls echoed through the air. He could feel the scurrying of small creatures on the trees and in the bushes around him.
"Hm?" Suddenly, he sensed danger from above.
