Pale light drifts from above the palace, casting shadows over the path ahead, woven into a shifting light that vaguely exudes a mysterious sense.

When Qiu Taoguang uses spiritual power to explore this path, his eyes freeze instantly, widening to the extreme.

"This, this is... Transformation Dao?!"

"And Blood Essence Dao! Life and Death Dao! Disaster Dao! Emotionless Dao! Slaughter Dao!"

With a slight tremble, a cry escapes his mouth before taking a step, Qiu Taoguang already senses the six clear Daos within the pathway.

His face flickers, and his body, still coughing blood, trembles slightly with excitement.

This must be the tomb of a Daoist Monarch of the Vientiane Realm. The Dao inheritance inside might exceed six!

If he comprehends them all, not only can he ascend to the Vientiane Realm, but he might also have a chance to compete with Jiang Shu again!

Since entering this Ancient Demon Sect Relics, continuous setbacks have deeply affected him as the First True Inheritor of the Demon Sect. Now, with such a providential opportunity before him, he can hardly suppress the excitement in his heart.

Despite his injury, his eyes regain focus, and Qiu Taoguang gazes intently at the passage ahead, slowly clenching his fists.

"This tomb is certainly in the deepest part of the Inner Circle, completely different from the tombs we searched on the outskirts. Without my master's giant hand tearing open space, entering here would be next to impossible."

"But likewise, cultivating here, recovering from injuries, and comprehending the Dao, will surely be undisturbed!"

"Jiang Shu, what you gave me before, once my cultivation reaches great success, I will reclaim it all. You just wait!"

Thoughts churn within Qiu Taoguang's mind, his gaze sharp, he resolutely makes up his mind.

Immediately, he sits cross-legged on the ground, hands forming seals, ready to enter the passage anytime. Before comprehending the Dao, he must adjust his body and soul to the best state!

He closes his eyes, concentrating, waves of Primordial Power emerge with the Great Dao Embryo surrounding.

The giant hand tore space apart within just a few breaths.

The entire sky retains an astonishing presence.

Within the relic's Inner Circle, the sky shimmers with flowing light, a figure emerges, suddenly halting.

"This fluctuation... so strong!"

"It must be at least the Vientiane Realm Middle Stage!"

Lu Chong appears, gazing toward the northwest sky of the Demon Sect Relics, slightly moved.

In the earth's fluctuation deep from there, he senses a striking pressure.

This journey, whether by the Eight Great Sects, Demon Sect, or the Demon Race, none dispatched a Daoist Monarch of Vientiane Realm.

Even if someone fortuitously comprehends the Dao inside the relics and ascends to the Vientiane Realm, it would at most be the Vientiane Realm Early Stage.

Such strong power fluctuation, probably there's only one possibility.

Someone is battling fiercely there, urgently using high-level methods bestowed by their sect.

Thinking about this, Lu Chong suddenly considers a possibility, his eyes flash, immediately changing direction into a streamer swiftly rushing toward the northwest of the relics.

In the void, clouds churn, light flies, nearing the Demon Lord's tomb in the northwest of the Upper Demon Sect Relics, suddenly stopping, dissipating.

Lu Chong emerges from cloud layers, looking below at the rolling black mist, brow furrows, expression solemn.

Approaching here, he feels ever stronger the aftermath of a fierce battle here that hasn't fully settled.

This fierce level has already exceeded what Nirvana Realm Peak can endure.

Especially, from the invisible Primordial Qi spreading through the heavens and earth, he detects the profound Dao aura unique to a Daoist Monarch of Vientiane Realm.

Moreover, there's more than one!

"Heavenly Fire Dao and Earth Fire Dao, among the Eight Great Sects' true inheritors entering the Ancient Demon Sect Relics, not many are proficient, it shouldn't be so quick to break into the Vientiane Realm, and they're all currently beside Zong Yue, surely they haven't come here to battle."

"It appears that the Vientiane Realm strong person intervening earlier, is highly likely a member of the Demon Sect or the Demon Race."

"But this other aura..."

Contemplating in his heart, Lu Chong's eyes reveal a hint of doubt.

From the other remnants of Vientiane Realm aura, he faintly perceives the Power Dao vibe, somewhat matching Jiang Shu.

But, the vast pressure revealed in that aura, far surpasses the Nirvana Realm Jiang Shu, completely incomparable, making it unlikely to connect the two.

After all, whether in his view or among the high ranks in True Martial Sect, although Jiang Shu's talent is extraordinary, yet truly stepping into the Vientiane Realm, there's a gap, needing time to accumulate.

"If it's not Jiang, then who is this mysterious Vientiane Realm Daoist Monarch?"

"Could it also be Jiang, displaying the after-effects of Lord Zi Ji?"

Lu Chong's gaze slightly focuses, immediately preparing to delve into the canyon's black mist to investigate.

Right then, the dense black mist within the canyon, seemingly pressured by some aura, suddenly churns violently, raising rolling air waves sweeping all around.

Then, as if forcibly parted by an invisible hand, the black mist scatters to both sides, revealing a dim, deep passage emerging from within.

Lu Chong's prepared step instantly halts, his face slightly changes, heart raises in vigilance, vast primordial power silently activates.
