Chapter 1729 Submission, Discussion!
A magnificent and ancient hall!
At this moment, the air seemed to freeze and become much heavier.
The demon-patterned stone pillars hanging from the dome emitted a cold, eerie light, reflecting the diverse faces of the hundreds of demon lords below.
Time seemed to stretch out, each breath filled with silent, turbulent waves.
Just as the demon lords' minds raced, a turmoil of surprise, suspicion, anger, and fear swirling within them...
On the high platform,
The throne, symbolizing the supreme authority of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark clan, was now occupied by the figure of 'Shark Minghong,' who resembled an ancient, unyielding statue of ice.
He stood motionless, his deep gaze calmly looking down.
Below the high platform, the row of semi-elders remained motionless, like clay or wooden sculptures, without making any unnecessary movements.
They simply watched silently, with an almost cruel scrutiny, the direct descendants of those transformed demon lords.
Obviously.
This silence itself is a declaration, a cold judgment.
They wanted to make these noble and arrogant demon lords fully realize reality and crush their last bit of hope and resentment into dust.
as predicted.
Those direct descendants of the demon lords, with their last bit of stubbornness and madness on their faces, each brought out their treasured artifacts that symbolized their blood ties.
Or perhaps a shimmering pearl brimming with the gentle warmth of life.
Or a jade talisman inscribed with ancient runes,
There were even scales containing a wisp of the ancestral spirit...
Instantly, these treasures were infused with immense magical power, their light flickering brightly or dimly, like the heartbeat of a dying person.
however!
No matter how they urge or pour in?
Those treasures that could normally resonate subtly with our ancestors are now like lifeless objects, their silence chilling.
There wasn't a single familiar fluctuation.
There was absolutely no response as expected.
There was only cold, utter silence.
"impossible!"
A sharp scream shattered the silence, filled with unbelievable despair.
"This is absolutely impossible!"
The other demon lord's voice trembled, as if he were resisting the undeniable truth before him.
"···"
Whispers rose and fell, like the murmurs of a dream.
The light in their eyes quickly dimmed, replaced by an unfathomable grayness.
Staggering, I involuntarily stumbled backward, as if struck by an invisible hammer.
Finally, the demon lords could no longer hold on. Their bodies swayed, and with endless sorrow and confusion, they collapsed to the ground, as if all their backbones had been ripped out.
this moment.
The hundreds of demon lords who witnessed this scene lost all color in their faces.
His face was ashen, and his heart was ashen.
The last glimmer of hope that the ancestor still existed was extinguished, like a candle flickering in the wind.
Despair, like a cold tide, instantly engulfed the entire hall.
same.
Even the few semi-saint elders who had been trying to remain calm and still held a sliver of hope in their hearts couldn't help but let a deep sadness flash across their eyes at this moment.
That was a lament for past glories.
It also reflects a deep concern about the enormous uncertainties facing the future of the ethnic group.
at the same time.
Seated on the throne, 'Sha Minghong' had an expression as indifferent as a frozen pool.
His gaze slowly swept over the distraught faces below, and finally, like two solid ice spikes, landed on the leading elder.
After noticing the gaze directed at him by 'Shark Minghong'...
The elder took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress all the complex emotions surging in his chest.
It was a lament for the departed ancestors, a fear of the future of the tribe, and awe of the powerful strength of the new master before them.
He stepped forward, his voice low yet clear, resonating throughout the hall, carrying an unquestionable authority and a profound sense of reassurance:
"When I learned of this terrible news, my heart ached no less than yours."
His gaze swept over the direct descendants who were slumped on the ground, a hint of barely perceptible pity in his eyes.
"Yes."
It's too late now, there's no turning back!
Indulging in grief will only hasten the decline of the community.
We must accept reality and face this catastrophic change!
"Besides," the elder suddenly changed his tone, his voice rising abruptly, carrying a powerful declaration.
"I have another shocking piece of news to tell you: this calamity is not only affecting our clan's ancestor!"
Within the True Dragon Sea, the fates of the Nascent Soul Demon Lords from other peak clans are not much different!
Even in the human realm, almost all of its Nascent Soul cultivators perished!
These words were like throwing a boulder into a still lake!
The many demon lords were shaken to their core, almost forgetting their grief, and instinctively blurted out questions, their voices filled with shock and disbelief:
"Elder, is this really true?!"
"Elder, where did you get this information?!"
"...Is the news reliable?!"
"···"
"Rest assured!" the elder declared resolutely, his gaze sharp and unwavering.
"The source of this information is absolutely reliable; I guarantee it with my life!"
You have no need to doubt!
Then,
His tone shifted, becoming one of triumphant resurgence:
"This calamity, though a tragedy for our race, is also a once-in-a-millennium opportunity!"
A golden opportunity to reshape the landscape of the True Dragon Sea!
Having said that,
The elder clan leader suddenly turned around, bowed deeply to the mountain-like figure on the high platform throne, and performed an unprecedentedly grand salute!
Then, He straightened His body, His face solemn, and He proclaimed in a loud voice,
The sound was like a resounding bell, making the hall vibrate.
"because!
We have His Highness Prince Minghong!
"In this era where all the Nascent Soul Demon Lords have perished, Your Highness is undoubtedly the invincible king!"
Its immense power has already been experienced firsthand by you all; I need not elaborate further!
"And that's precisely why!" The elder clansman surveyed the entire hall, his gaze intense.
"Upon learning of this matter, I consulted with the elders and we unanimously decided:"
We support His Highness Shark Minghong to lead the entire Black Spirit Tiger Shark clan!
With the full strength of our clan, we will conquer the True Dragon Sea, expand our territory, and recreate our former glory!
The voice just fell.
Another elder, with a powerful and resonant voice, stepped forward, his voice like thunder:
"The wealth of the True Dragon Sea and the abundance of cultivation resources are self-evident!"
With Your Highness's unparalleled combat prowess, let alone ordinary races?
Even the Golden Dragon Clan, which dwells in the deep sea and claims to be descendants of dragons, has a chance to completely conquer it!
At that time, all the endless natural treasures and boundless seas and territories will belong to our race!
"You have been stuck at a bottleneck for many years. With this extraordinary opportunity, you may very well be able to make further progress and glimpse the path to Nascent Soul!"
"...Excellent!" the third elder interjected, his voice filled with fervor.
"This is the opportunity for our race to be reborn from the ashes!"
If we can swallow up the True Dragon Sea and gather resources from all four seas, why should our race worry about not producing a few more Nascent Soul Demon Lords?
To recreate and even surpass the unparalleled glory of our people's past!
"···"
For a while.
Inside the magnificent hall, hundreds of demon lords stood frozen in place, as if under a spell.
His expression was incredibly complex: shock, confusion, fear, and a flicker of ignited ambition...
A torrent of emotions surged within me like boiling water.
The news was so shocking that it was overwhelming.
From the initial collective support of the semi-elders for Shark Minghong, to their shock at being instantly suppressed by His Highness Shark Minghong's supreme power;
Then came the despair of the ancestor's fall and the collapse of the clan's pillar of strength;
Now, the elders have come up with an astonishing plan to devour the True Dragon Sea and conquer the Golden Dragon Clan!
therefore.
Even though these demon lords are all seasoned veterans with strong wills, they still find it difficult to make a decision in an instant.
But instinctively, they were already rapidly calculating and weighing the pros and cons in their minds.
Those who can cultivate to the level of a Demon Lord, especially those who reach the peak of the late stage of a Great Demon, are all cunning and shrewd tyrants who can assess the situation.
soon.
All eyes, as if drawn by a magnet, once again focused on the imposing figure atop the high throne.
At the same time, these demon lords finally understood...
Why would those powerful and influential elders, who hold high positions, so unanimously and almost humbly support Prince Shark Minghong?
Obviously.
They were not there willingly, but were completely overwhelmed by the terrifying power His Highness displayed, a power that could crush everything!
That brief but thrilling snapshot from just now...
Though it was only for a moment...
However, it clearly reflects the attitude of the elders when facing Shark Minghong—a situation of utmost concern, with them tightly united in protecting the eldest elder.
That is the most instinctive defensive reaction of the weak when facing an absolutely strong person!
Similarly, they understood why Prince Shark Minghong would be so "rebellious," brazenly taking his seat on the throne that symbolized the supreme authority of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark clan in full view of everyone.
All this is because His Highness Sharming Hong is now the undisputed number one powerhouse in the clan!
Possessing unparalleled combat power!
Naturally, they are qualified to sit there, rather than being rebellious!
moment.
The demon lords in the magnificent hall, through the fleeting glimpse of the captured image and the astonishing information revealed by the elder, quickly pieced together the entire story as if the clouds had parted to reveal the sun.
After roughly understanding the truth of the matter, the last trace of resentment in the hearts of the hundreds of demon lords towards Sha Minghong's seemingly "treasonous" act vanished.
Treason?
Do not!
That's what everyone wants!
We were merely overcome with anger and lost our composure upon hearing the tragic news of our ancestor's death!
Now that Your Highness is the head of the clan, your heart should be as vast as the ocean. I'm sure you can understand our grief and impulsiveness just now.
next moment.
The hundreds of demon lords standing in the main hall seemed to be linked by an invisible will, displaying an astonishing tacit understanding.
They all bowed deeply and in perfect unison toward the figure on the high platform and throne, performing a grand salute!
The movements were so synchronized, as if they had been practiced hundreds of times.
Even those direct descendants of the Nascent Soul Demon Lord who had just been distraught and grieving...
At this moment, they also suppressed the humiliation, resentment and complex emotions in their hearts, and deeply lowered their once proud heads.
At this moment, do not bow your head...
Isn't that just courting death and waiting to be purged by the new master?
and so!
Despite the mixed feelings and turmoil in their hearts, these demon lords were extremely "pragmatic" and offered their submission to the new and undisputed leader of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark clan.
It is not difficult to see from this that none of the powerful individuals who have cultivated to the level of Demon Lord are reckless or brainless.
They deeply understood the principle that "those who understand the times are the heroes."
I understand even more clearly the consequences of going against the tide—
They will inevitably be crushed to pieces by that unstoppable, surging tide of the race!
The figure sitting on the high throne is the embodiment of the irreversible "general trend" at present!
"We respectfully request Your Highness to return to your position, take up the clan seal, lead the entire clan, and guide us to overcome all obstacles and regain our supreme glory!"
"...Your Highness, please return to your position to uphold the clan's authority and govern the four directions!"
"reset!"
"···"
The resounding petition echoed and surged like a tsunami within the spacious hall, the sound waves converging and causing the ancient demonic patterns on the beams and pillars to tremble slightly.
however.
This sound, powerful enough to shake mountains, was firmly restrained by an invisible force, and not a single trace leaked out of the hall.
See this scene.
'Sha Minghong', who was sitting on the high throne, slowly got up.
His gaze was like that of a king surveying his territory, majestically looking around and taking in every submissive face.
Then, a calm and powerful voice resounded throughout the hall, carrying an undeniable determination:
"The situation is urgent and turbulent, so I will no longer make empty excuses."
"From this day forward, I, Sha Minghong, will take charge of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark clan, command all the clan's elites, and lead them on a distant expedition, aiming our swords at the True Dragon Sea!"
This will surely make our people's banners fly throughout the four seas and eight wastelands!
next moment.
Like a wildfire ignited, an even more fervent and unified wave of worship surged into the sky.
Like crashing waves, endless and continuous, the sound echoed and overlapped beneath the dome of the main hall, forming a torrent that shook the very soul.
"Reign supreme over the Dragon Sea and recreate unparalleled glory!"
"Reign supreme over the Dragon Sea and recreate unparalleled glory!"
"Reign supreme over the Dragon Sea and recreate unparalleled glory!"
"···"
this moment.
The figure standing before the throne on the high platform, surrounded by a wave of fervent cheers, seemed to be coated with a layer of sacred radiance, appearing even more majestic and grand, like an supreme emperor about to set out to conquer and rule over all demons!
An invisible pressure spread out, instilling a sense of awe in all the demon lords from the depths of their souls.
However, no one noticed that a barely perceptible look of satisfaction flickered in the deepest part of 'Sha Minghong's' eyes, which were as deep as the starry sky.
That was a sense of smugness at having control of the situation.
It is also a wonderful anticipation of the grand undertaking that is about to unfold.
It also expresses our anticipation for the future of our immortal journey.
It was as if countless innate evil spirits and the turbid energy of the earth were beckoning to Him.
At this moment,
Beneath the high throne...
The semi-elders, lined up in a row, exchanged quick glances, as if they had completely accepted 'Sha Minghong'.
Just as the fervent chants of worship, like a tidal wave threatening to lift the roof off the temple, were reaching their climax...
Standing before the high throne, 'Sha Minghong' slowly raised his hands, palms down.
I made a slight, gentle pressing motion.
"quiet!"
"···"
