The Bone Emperor continued: "As early as when the Lord of the Demon Realm fell, the treasure of the Demon Realm's seal had been destroyed. It was only thanks to the Demon Sky Shield refined by you, my father, that the power of the interface in the Demon Realm was prevented from flowing away. At the same time,
It also blocks out the creatures in the ghost realm."
"However, only you, my father, can fully unleash the world-sealing power of the Devil's Sky Shield. Although we, the ancestor demons, can also activate the Devil's Sky Shield, we cannot exert its full power unless we sacrifice ourselves."
"So when the Demon Realm and the Ghost Realm met for the second time, I sacrificed my life and exerted the full power of the Demon Sky Shield. This prevented the Ghost Realm from invading for the second time."
"Since then, all the ancestor demons have fallen, and there are no monks in the Demon Realm who can activate the Demon Sky Shield."
Hearing this, Shen Lang couldn't help but feel shocked.
He finally understood the truth behind the death of the ten ancestor demons in the Demon Realm.
The Bone Emperor said solemnly: "According to the records left by the ancestor of Demon Heaven, the final disaster of the Demon Realm is the third boundary intersection with the Ghost Realm."
"If you want to survive this calamity, the only way for you, my father, is to reshape your true body, transform into the true Heaven-Smiting Emperor, take over the Demon Realm, and lead the creatures of the Demon Realm through this calamity."
After Shen Lang understood the ins and outs of everything, he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that the so-called catastrophe in the human domain and the demon domain has the same cause. It is because the two world lords fought and fell, resulting in the destruction of the original treasure of the sealed world, making it impossible to
Resist the disaster caused by the intersection of realms."
The Bone Emperor nodded and said: "Yes, everything comes from this."
"The reason why we instill hatred of the Human Realm in the descendants of the Demon Realm is mainly because we are worried that history will repeat itself. We are worried that the Human Realm will one day become stronger and invade and annex the Demon Realm like the Ghost Realm."
"That's it." Shen Lang nodded.
When Hong Ji heard this, she finally realized.
It turns out that the hatred between the demon realm and the human realm is caused by a chain of suspicion.
When the creatures between the two realms do not have sufficient communication from the beginning, they will inevitably become suspicious of each other.
When each other falls into a chain of suspicion, eliminating each other is indeed the most effective way to ensure one's own safety!
Even if this idea is rather extreme.
It wasn't until this moment that Hong Ji realized how stupid and short-sighted she was.
Her mother, Hongdie, realized countless years ago that the Demon Realm and the Human Realm should not hate each other, but she was still stubborn.
If Shen Lang hadn't stopped her, she might have ruined the Demon Realm.
Thinking of this, Hongji felt extremely regretful.
Shen Lang let out a long sigh and continued talking about the business, saying: "There is one last thing I want to ask you, where is the other fragment of the sealed object that fell into the Demon Realm?"
The Bone Emperor said frankly: "If nothing unexpected happens, it should have been intercepted by the Demonic Sky Shield's weapon spirit, the Demonic Sky Ancestor."
"This...where should I go to find the fragment of the sealed object?" Shen Lang asked with a frown.
The Bone Emperor pondered for a moment and said: "If my father wants to find the fragment of the boundary-sealed object, I'm afraid he can only look for the Demonic Heaven Ancestor himself."
"But the Demonic Heaven Ancestor had already perished when the Demon Realm and the Ghost Realm first met, so my father needs to travel back to that time node and find the Demonic Heaven Ancestor at that time, and he should be able to get the piece of the Human Realm.
The boundary-sealing thing is in pieces."
Shen Lang frowned.
Unexpectedly, even after reaching the Demon Realm, I would still have to continue traveling through it!
The Bone Emperor advised: "Father, don't worry. If you want to recover your soul, you must travel back to the time before the first intersection between the Demon Realm and the Ghost Realm."
"Because the ancestral demons at that time have not yet been extinguished, you can only find the other ancestral demons at that point in time, take back their hearts, and rebuild your true body."
"It seems that there is a certain destiny somewhere." Shen Lang couldn't help but sigh.
According to what the Bone Emperor said, his actions of traveling through time and space in the Demon Realm may also be a part of the historical process.
Shen Lang had already understood the whole picture and said in a deep voice: "I understand. I will try my best to help the Demon Realm overcome the disaster. If you feel a sense of belonging to the Emperor Jietian, please return to my body."
"I wish my father all the best!"
The Bone King bowed slightly.
Then, the Bone Emperor's shadow dissipated and turned into a heart that exuded a bright light, entered Shen Lang's body, and disappeared in an instant.
Shen Lang's body trembled, and he could feel that the bone emperor's heart had been integrated into the spiritual will in his body.
There was nothing strange about his body, nor did he feel any rejection reaction.
Shen Lang always had a sense of unreality. He couldn't imagine that if he really absorbed the hearts of the ten ancestor demons, would he become the Heaven-Smiting Emperor?
In short, he didn't want to think too much about it for the time being. He would first collect the remaining fragments of Heavenly Dao.
After leaving Demon Sealing Ridge.
Hong Ji suddenly knelt down in front of Shen Lang: "Hong Ji is stupid. I misunderstood your good intentions earlier. She deserves to be punished by death. Please be punished by the Emperor of Heaven!"
"These are no longer important."
Shen Lang shook his head, and then asked: "Does your Demon Realm have ancient books that record the intersection of realms? I want to read them all."
He has decided to travel through time and space to find the remaining fragment of heaven in the Demon Realm.
Before traveling through time and space, he needs to have a certain understanding of what happened and the characters in the Demon Realm back then, so as to be prepared to find the fragments of heaven.
"There is a library in the royal palace, where all the classics in the Demon Realm are stored. Hong Ji can take you there immediately!" Hong Ji said respectfully.
"Okay, then you can lead the way."
After Shen Lang said this, he used the space teleportation technique to create a space vortex.
Passing through the space vortex, the two came to the sky above the royal palace.
Hong Ji led Shen Lang into the library of the royal palace.
There are a large number of jade slips densely packed in the library.
With Shen Lang's current level of cultivation, there was no need to take out the jade slips one by one. He just scanned the jade slips with his spiritual consciousness and began to read the contents of the jade slips.
A few hours later.
Shen Lang has read all the ancient books and has a relatively deep understanding of the Demon Realm.
After coming out of the library, Shen Lang glanced at Hong Ji, who was guarding the outside of the library as respectfully as a maid, and said: "I want to travel back in time to deal with some things. During these days when I am away, you can manage the Demon Realm for the time being."
"In addition, arrange the human realm monks for me and never harm them at all."
"Don't worry, Emperor Tian, Hong Ji will definitely handle these things well." Hong Ji bowed and said.
Shen Lang nodded with satisfaction, then found an open place and released all the human monks in the Palace of Reincarnation.
He explained everything clearly to his many Taoist companions, Hou Yi, Emperor Donghua and others, temporarily letting the monks stay in the Demon Realm, and asking them not to have any conflicts with the Demon Realm monks.
"Brother Shen, just go ahead and leave this place to us."
"Brother Shen Lang, we will not cause any trouble for you."
Hou Yi and Emperor Donghua said one after another.
Shen Lang was still a little worried, so he took out the space fairy treasure "Dinghai Fritillary" given to him by Wu Gonggong, the ancestor of water, and gave it to Hou Yi.
When necessary, Dinghai Fritillaria can be used as a space-type defensive fairy treasure, replacing the Palace of Reincarnation as a shelter for monks in the human realm.
In addition, Shen Lang also left some life-saving immortal treasures and other artifacts to his Taoist companions and brothers.
After making these arrangements, he felt a little relieved.
After Xiang Hongji repeatedly asked to take good care of the monks in the human realm, Shen Lang sacrificed the lotus lantern and prepared to travel through time and space.
