Chapter 726: Devil God Follower

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Enrollment agreement?

After Yang Ling saw the Starry Sky Castle Lord’s gaze, he quickly understood his intentions. A meat pie wouldn’t fall from the sky, and killing the Algernon Core Deity, as well as the Justin Core Deity, had given him qualifications only great enough to get the cooperation of the Wanderer Alliance. It still wasn’t enough to get the full support of the Alliance and all its apex wanderers.

He would earn the right to join the Alliance on equal footing only after killing an Arbitrator.

“Lord Cameron, it isn’t an issue for me to kill the Blade Emperor. But first, I must explore several other Skyreach Towers to increase my odds of success,” Yang Ling said bluntly, trying to get as much support as possible from the Alliance.

If he wanted to get the support and trust of the alliance, then he had to demonstrate great power and kill an arbitrator to show his might. In addition, if he wanted to explore the Order Dimension’s Skyreach Tower and carry out carnage in the City Amongst the Clouds, then he must first kill the Arbitrator who guarded the Order Dimension all year long. It was necessary for him to kill the Blade Emperor.

But the Lord of the City Amongst the Clouds was already so powerful, and the Blade Emperor, the Arbitrator who had appointed the Lord of the City Amongst the Clouds as a quasi-envoy of the Creator, was surely more powerful still. After Yang Ling had practiced the Skyreach Wizard Mantra and advanced into the primary-level of the Wizard God Stage, he became confident that he could behead the Lord of the City Amongst the Clouds. He still wasn’t sure, though, if he could kill the Blade Emperor, who had unfathomable power. In addition, if another arbitrator was there, things would be even more thorny, and he might not make it out alive. His whole army might be wiped out.

Twelve Grand Wizards! If he could revive several other Wizard Ancestors before attacking the Blade Emperor, then the situation would be completely different.

The fighting prowess of the Grand Wizard Houtu was obvious to all. Even though he’d only recovered a third of his power, he could still easily kill the Algernon Core Deity and ordinary Dimensional Wanderers. He could also recover more power by devouring enemies’ Soul Essence. Even if Yang Ling couldn’t revive all eleven Wizard Ancestors for a while, he would still be much more confident if he could revive just one.

“Yang Ling, you can set your mind at ease and leave the intelligence aspect to us. As long as you can kill the Order Dimension’s Arbitrator within the next ten years, I will be able to persuade the other eight elders to fully support your future operations. We will also help you find your missing clan members.” Upon seeing that Yang Ling didn’t flatly refuse, the Starry Sky Castle Lord, Cameron, was overjoyed.

When it came to size, the Order Dimension wasn’t as vast as the Chaos Dimension, but the number of natural resources in it was comparable to the Chaos Dimension. It had all kinds of excellent crystal mines in great numbers. Unfortunately, most of the resources were monopolized by the tyrannical City Amongst the Clouds, which was supported by the powerful Blade Emperor. Over the years, the Alliance attacked the Blade Emperor many times to weaken the Creator’s influence, as well as to get more crystals. Still, they had never succeeded, and they’d lost a great many experts.

If Yang Ling could kill the Blade Emperor, he wouldn’t just be getting rid of a major problem for the alliance; he would also be demonstrating that he really possessed the Ancient Wizards’ power. Cooperation between the two sides could bring endless benefits to the Alliance.

“Fine, I will stay in the Starry Sky Castle for now. Lord Cameron, I will have to trouble you with gathering intelligence.” Yang Ling hesitated for a moment before saying, “Also, I have three friends who are elders of the Dark Association. They are subordinates of the King of Darkness, dispatched by him into Tailun Continent. They went missing when they were hunting down the Mother Empress in the Graveyard of Gods and Devils. I wonder whether you can help me find their whereabouts?”

Yang Ling still hadn’t forgotten the Three Heads of Darkness, who had supported him greatly in the past, and he couldn’t forget the forthright Darkness Cavalry Commander or the Great Dark Elder, who had been crucial to his success. Until now, he hadn’t had access to much information, and he didn’t know how he could look for them. Looking for them was like trying to fish a needle from the sea. Now, he’d come across the powerful Wanderer Alliance, and he surely wouldn’t let this chance slip by. He softly whispered several words into the ears of the Blood Angel Ophelia, and she quickly took action. She deftly drew lifelike portraits of the Three Heads of Darkness.

The King of Darkness’s subordinates?

The Starry Sky Castle Lord, Cameron, observed carefully the realistic portrait of the Three Heads of Darkness, and a faint smile appeared on his face. In other people’s eyes, the King of Darkness was the Death Dimension’s apex powerhouse, with a powerful army and a large faction. He wouldn’t submit to just anyone. No one would have guessed that the King of Darkness, who ran amok in the Death Dimension, was the Sixth Elder of the Wanderer Alliance.

“Brother Yang Ling, you can set your mind at ease. I will deal with those matters for you.”

The Starry Sky Castle Lord, Cameron, let out a soft chuckle and collected the portraits. Then, he clapped and summoned a butler-like black-clothed person. He gave this person several instructions before he bid farewell to Yang Ling and strode out. He was going to use the Alliance’s power to help Yang Ling gather intelligence about various matters.

“Everybody, you must seize the time to practice now, and you should try to achieve an advancement as soon as possible,” Yang Ling instructed the team before teleporting to a deserted mountain’s peak. He set up several layers of Restriction Spells and took out the Great Wizard Altar. He started practicing on the peak, engulfed by clouds, and he waited calmly for good news from the Starry Sky Castle Lord, Cameron.

Revenge is a dish best served cold!

Yang Ling didn’t mind waiting a while to behead the Lord of the City Amongst the Clouds and carry out carnage in the City Amongst the Clouds. He could even wait for ten years. The City Amongst the Clouds had great power, and it was supported by the Blade Emperor, whose power was unfathomable. It would be very foolish to attack rashly, as his army might be wiped out.

He could either do nothing or make an all-out effort. He must first block the enemy’s escape route, and he mustn’t leave any opportunity for them to counterattack.

Is there any other method to raise my power quickly, other than exploring various Great Dimensions’ Skyreach Towers and reviving the remaining Wizard Ancestors?

As Yang Ling sat cross-legged, he got an idea. He recalled the Black-Horned Demon imprisoned in the dungeon and the Abyssal Demon Lord devoted to her, who commanded a myriad of Abyssal Demons. He was overjoyed by this memory, and he quickly wove Wizard Seals. He teleported into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension. He rushed toward the dungeon where the Black-Horned Demon was held captive. When he had just a Soul Wizard’s power, he hadn’t been able to tame an Ancient Devil God like the Black-Horned Demon, but now that he’d practiced the Skyreach Wizard Mantra and advanced into the primary-level of the Wizard God Stage, things were different.

Yang Ling could kill even ordinary Core Deities and Dimensional Wanderers with a single blade strike, so he didn’t believe that he couldn’t tame the heavily injured Black-Horned Demon.

Swoosh!

In the depths of the dungeon, a cold wind blew as usual. This land was covered with layers of Restriction Spells, which crushed all prisoners’ hopes for escape. Even the Black-Horned Demon, who had a Dimensional Wanderer’s power, couldn’t see through the Restriction Spells’ mysteries, let alone ordinary God-level experts. There was no way out!

The Black-Horned Demon was constrained by the Restriction Spells, so she could never absorb the outside world’s energy. Her injuries never healed at all; in fact, they worsened. This might have been because her old illness recurred, or perhaps some other reason. The Black-Horned Demon’s face was pale, and her eyes were lifeless. In the yellow light, she looked very haggard.

“Miss Natalie, long time, no see.” Yang Ling teleported quietly next to the Black-Horned Demon and let out a soft chuckle.

“Sir, you…” When the Black-horned Demon saw the high-spirited Yang Ling and detected the obscure Energy Ripples within his body, she turned pale with fright.

She was seriously injured, but she had an Ancient Devil God’s inborn instinct, and she detected that Yang Ling had changed. When they last met, Yang Ling had just an apex High-level Deity’s power, and he hadn’t been any stronger than an ordinary High-level Deity. He had been gone only for a short time, yet his power had increased to an unbelievable level. At this moment, she found Yang Ling unfathomable, as his power was at least at the level of a Dimensional Wanderer.

An Ancient Wizard’s practice speed was truly amazing!

As the Black-horned Demon observed Yang Ling’s unusual black eyes and black hair, she recalled his status, and astonishment welled up in her heart. There were so many Divine Branches in various great dimensions, but only a few experts could become Core Deities or Dimensional Wanderers. Most people wouldn’t ever reach this stage in their lives, yet Yang Ling had managed to achieve this great advancement in just a short while.

The Black-Horned Demon, Natalie, muttered to herself for a moment, then took the initiative and spoke. “Sir, if I’m willing to become your follower, will I be allowed to regain my freedom?”

In the beginning, she’d had conflicting feelings about surrendering to Yang Ling, and she couldn’t give up her dignity and pride as an Ancient Devil God. However, she’d gotten over this over the years. If Yang Ling hadn’t saved her in the Demon Hall, she would have already been killed by Lorgans and his companions. She would never get to see the Abyssal Demon Lord, Kansas, again.

She’d slept in the Demon Hall for countless years, and then she stayed in the dark dungeon for a long time. Her mind was already on the verge of collapse, and she thought constantly about the voice, features, and smile of the Abyssal Demon Lord, Kansas. She was willing to pay any price for freedom if it meant she could see Kansas again.

In addition, the Ancient Wizards’ apex powerhouse was a supreme being at the same level as the Creator. Before the Battle of Deities and Demons, many peerless powerhouses had become followers of Ancient Wizards willingly, and they fought bravely to protect their masters. Yang Ling didn’t have the power of the Ancient Wizards’ apex powerhouse, but his training speed was so astounding that becoming his follower wasn’t a disgraceful matter.

“After you become my follower, you will be unable to betray me, but you will still retain the same freedom as an ordinary person,” Yang Ling said with a chuckle. His expression was composed, but inside he was overjoyed. He didn’t expect that the Black-Horned Demon would ask to become his follower before he even requested it.

“Would I really have the same freedom as an ordinary person?”

Natalie got very excited. She finally had hope of reuniting with the Abyssal Demon Lord. She was pleasantly surprised, and she quickly prostrated respectfully toward Yang Ling. “I have experienced the Ancient Wizards’ power long ago, and it’s an honor for me to become your lordship’s follower.”

“Good, very good. Every Great Wizard’s followers will get a part of the Great Wizard’s Soul Inheritance. Don’t be nervous; loosen your soul defenses.” Yang Ling set up several Restriction Spells and summoned the Grand Wizard Houtu to protect him. After that, he took out a drop of Blood Essence. He smeared it slowly between the brows of the Black-Horned Demon, Natalie, who lowered her body and mind’s guard.

Everything was by mutual consent!

This domestication process wasn’t like the previous one. This time, the Black-horned Demon, Natalie, cooperated actively, and there weren’t any obstacles.
