Chapter 1016 The Ice and Snow on the Demon Ancestor Tree

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

It could be said that Xiaoxiao had been raised by Chu Jun since he was young. Back then, Tie Shi had entrusted Xiaoxiao to him before he died. He had agreed and had always treated Xiaoxiao as his biological sister. Thus, he had subconsciously treated Xiaoxiao as an ignorant child. Unexpectedly, Xiaoxiao was almost thirty years old by age. Of course, for immortal cultivators, thirty was indeed very small, but they were already mature adults.

It wasn't that Chu Jun hadn't realized that Little Xiao was already an adult. Perhaps he only had a subconscious desire to protect her, wishing for her to live happily under his wings. Now that he heard Dao Zheng Ming praise Little Xiao for being alone, he suddenly realized that perhaps it was his wings that had stopped her from growing up. It was time for her to let go and let herself soar!

"Master, if you are worried, you can transfer Pan Chuanxiong from the Yudong Flag and Jiang Bin from the Northern Flag to assist Xiaoxiao. With the two of them taking over the army, you will be safe!" Li Xiangjun said.

Pan Chuanxiong's mind was agile, and Jiang Bingang was straightforward. The two of them had the best combination. Chu Jun nodded and said, "Alright, Zhao Ling!"

Xiaoxiao trembled slightly. This was the first time Chu Jun had called her by her name so formally. She subconsciously turned around and stood up straight, looking at Chu Jun with a tense face.

"This king has officially appointed you as the State Supervisor of Thunder Jade Continent!" Chu Jun said solemnly.

Xiaoxiao burst into tears and laughed, "Zhao Ling obeys!"

"Be serious. The position of State Supervisor is of great importance. If anything goes wrong, this king will definitely hold you accountable. At that time, crying is useless!" Chu Jun said in a deep voice.

"This subordinate will definitely live up to the expectations of the World King!" Xiao Xiaoxiao withdrew her smile and said loudly with a tense face.

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned. There was some ambiguity in these words. Did they mean that there was nothing wrong with what they had hoped for, or did they cry when they were questioned?

Xiaoxiao was obviously aware of this and laughed out loud. She then embarrassedly wiped the tears off her face with her sleeve and muttered, "Don't look down on people!"

Xiaoxiao was originally made of pink carved jade, and her beauty was as beautiful as Zhao Yu's. Adding on the divine touch of the stone mole between her eyebrows, she felt like a fairy. At this moment, the way she pouted and wiped her tears made everyone's hearts melt.

"Cough … Miss Zhao Ling is exceptionally intelligent. She will definitely be a good continental supervisor!" Hua Xiongfei said.

"That's for sure!" Jiang Dongchen said.

Everyone echoed, and Xiaoxiao immediately smiled brightly. She shrugged her nose proudly and snorted at Chu Jun.

Chu Jun dotingly scolded, "Don't even raise your tail. If you're incompetent at that time, I'll immediately withdraw you!"

Xiaoxiao pouted adorably!

"Now that the supervisors of the Big Stone Continent have chosen, there's still Big Stone Continent left!" Li Xiangjun glanced at her encouragingly and smiled.

Dashi Zhou's Li Yifu was the Zhou Master. He was a sensible person. There was no need for the Zhou Supervisor of Dashi Zhou to be specially elected. In the end, Shen Xiaobao was the one who decided to take over the position. He then took out a bronze general from Pingxi Banner to receive the Zhou army.

After this matter was settled, the crowd began to discuss the use of troops against the demon race. Recently, the demon race launched a simultaneous offensive against Leiyu Island, the Eight Desolates Continent, and the Big Stone Continent, obviously with the intention of taking advantage of the fact that Chu Jun, the new World King, had yet to integrate the human realm and seize more territories.

Everyone had no choice but to react to the actions of the demons, because the main force of the Chu Army was all the ghosts. Only after taking over the three continents and integrating their forces would they be able to launch a powerful counterattack.

Demon Realm, Ten Thousand Demon Mountain.

The huge mountain covered an area of several hundred kilometers, towering into the clouds. Half of the mountain was above the clouds, and no one could see its top. Dense fog enveloped the area below the mountain, as if it was faintly visible. This dense mist was no ordinary mist, but rather contained a poisonous miasma. The flesh and blood area would rot if touched. Even a general-level demon wouldn't dare to easily enter the mountain.

At this moment, a demon male was climbing towards the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain on foot. This demon was tall and tall, moving like a tiger. A golden crystal was between its eyebrows, and it had three leaves below. Its face was resolute and clear, and its eyes were filled with vitality. It was the king of the demon race, Luo Shanhe.

Luo Shanhe climbed up the steep hill, He didn't use his demonic power, However, relying on the strength of his body, he did not use his spiritual energy to resist the corrosion of the miasma. Therefore, his face, hands, and feet were rotting. However, with his cultivation, even if he did not intentionally use demonic energy to resist, the rotting area would continue to grow new flesh, so his entire body would not be rotted into bones.

Ten Thousand Demon Mountain was the sacred land of the demon race. Rumors had it that it was left behind by the demon ancestor after he opened up the demon realm back then. Anyone who could climb to the peak of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain would receive the blessing of the demon ancestor, and their strength would greatly increase. However, the prerequisite was that they had to climb on foot, and they were not allowed to use their demon power. The demon race all believed that this was a test of the sincerity of their descendants. Only those with sincerity could receive the blessing of the demon ancestor.

Monster King Luo Shanhe had climbed the peak of the Ten Thousand Monster Mountain on foot when he was still a Monster Lieutenant, so his goal this time was not the peak, but the Monster Ancestral Tree on the peak. The Demon Ancestor Tree stood tall in the sky. Thunder and lightning were intertwined all day long, and the wind and rain were swift and violent. Legend had it that the demon race that climbed to the top of the Demon Ancestor Tree was qualified to receive the bestowal of the Demon Ancestor, so it was even more powerful. However, no demon race had ever climbed to the top of the Demon Ancestor Tree.

Luo Shanhe had climbed the Demon Ancestor Tree four times, and all of them ended in failure. At that time, the Demon Commandant had climbed to the top of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, and his entire body was corroded to the point of bones. Even so, he still climbed the Demon Ancestor Tree without knowing the heavens and earth. In the end, he was struck down by lightning within ten meters, almost losing his life.

Later, when his cultivation reached the level of a demon general, Luo Shanhe challenged him to climb the Demon Ancestral Tree again. He climbed two thousand meters and failed!

When the Demon Governor's cultivation base reached 6,000 meters, he failed and was seriously injured!

The demon marshal continued to challenge him with his cultivation. This time, he climbed over ten thousand meters in one go, but in the end, his strength was exhausted and he was struck down by wild lightning. He almost died!

It had been hundreds of years since he climbed the Demon Ancestor Tree last time. Luo Shanhe's cultivation had also advanced from the early Marshal realm to the late Marshal realm, approaching the peak of the late Marshal realm. He still had lingering fear of falling from the Demon Ancestor Tree last time.

This time, Demon King Luo Shanhe made up his mind to fight with all his might. If he didn't succeed, then he would be benevolent. There was nothing he could do about it. The pressure Chu Jun had placed on him was simply too great. Back then, Chu Jun had slashed out a sword with king-level power in the Frozen Continent, severely injuring him. Although he recalled afterwards that Chu Jun must have used some kind of secret technique to slash out such a sword, he was still deeply afraid. After all, if Chu Jun could slash out a sword, it would be possible for him to slash out a second sword.

Not long ago, Demon King Luo Shanhe received news that Chu Jun had subdued the Ghost Realm and defeated the half-step King level Ghost King Mei. Only then did he suddenly realize that Chu Jun had to be at the King level. Otherwise, it was unlikely that he would defeat Ghost King Mei or even burn down 200,000 troops in one move.

"Nine Lotus Gathering Roof, Lotus Transforming into Soaring Dragon, Sovereign of the Three

These twelve words deeply stimulated Luo Shanhe. In addition, he suspected that Chu Jun was already a king. Luo Shanhe felt unprecedented pressure, so he decisively chose to challenge him to climb the Demon Ancestor Tree again. Only by successfully climbing to the top of the Demon Ancestor Tree and obtaining the favor of the Demon Ancestor would he be able to instantly advance to the king level and possess the capital to contend with Chu Jun.

Luo Shanhe jumped and ran on the steep mountain, and after half a day, he climbed to the top of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain.

As the clouds and mist shrouded the sky, a giant tree soared into the sky. Lightning flashed and thunder rang continuously on it, resembling a silver flower blossoming from a tree.

"The Ten Thousand Demon Mountain is big, the Demon Ancestor Tree is tall, difficult to climb, difficult to climb, difficult to tread, the mountain is piled with bones, the tree is hanging with an orphan soul …!"

This was a song circulated in the Demon Realm, describing the dangers of climbing the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain and the Demon Ancestor Tree. Over the years, the bones of the demons who had died in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain had been piled up, and the souls that had fallen on the tree were lingering

There were rumors that the Demon Ancestor Tree was the Divine Tree of the Demon Ancestor, and many demons believed it.

The towering Demon Ancestor Tree gave off the feeling of a world. The demons relied on absorbing the essence of mountains, rivers, vegetation, and trees to grow. How many divine abilities would it take to plant such a Cloudsoaring tree?

Luo Shanhe stood under the Demon Ancestor Tree and took a few deep breaths. He climbed up the concave and convex part of the tree and his eyes flashed with determination to move forward. If he didn't succeed, he would be merciful.

Chi la, the pale white lightning flashed, and the gale hissed angrily, lightning flashed, and thunder rang!

Luo Shanhe narrowed his eyes, and the rain flowed down his eyes. He was like a spider tightly absorbing onto the tree. The muscles and ribs on his body protruded, and his fingers clasped onto the tree like iron. He struggled to climb up against the storm and the wild lightning that filled the sky.

Chi la … boom!

A bolt of lightning struck three feet above his head. In an instant, wood chips flew and a shallow pit was blown out of the tree. White arcs of lightning jumped and flowed through his body like water. Luo Shanhe turned a blind eye and continued to move upwards. The veins on his neck started to twitch, and his muscles trembled from the passage of electric current.

Luo Shanhe climbed to the shallow pit and rested his feet on the pit's edge for a moment before going up again

Climbing higher and higher, Luo Shanhe had already surpassed the height of the previous time, reaching 12,000 meters. Looking up, he still couldn't see the top of the Demon Ancestor Tree. Above his head, there was a heavy rain, strong wind, and thunder. Luo Shanhe could no longer find a complete place on his body. His flesh was a mess, and his wound was as deep as a bone. It was struck by lightning, but his body was tyrannical, and his wound was slowly healing.

Luo Shanhe gasped for breath for a while, then picked up his spirits and climbed up again!

15,000 … 16,000

Luo Shanhe silently calculated the height and estimated that he would reach 20,000 meters soon. He raised his head and looked up, only to see a ball of green light faintly visible in the blurry wind and rain.

Luo Shanhe was overjoyed, was he finally about to reach the top? Lord Demon Ancestor, bless your people for the rest of your life!

With great joy, Luo Shanhe erupted with his last bit of strength and climbed up!

Chi la … boom!

The pale lightning enveloped Luo Shanhe's body. Luo Shanhe let out an unwilling scream and his hands slipped. He could no longer grab onto the tree and fall down.

The lightning disappeared. Luo Shanhe's legs were tightly clamped onto the tree, hanging upside down from his head and feet. His weak legs were slowly sliding down, and he was almost unable to hold on.

Suddenly, a woman dressed in white like an ice and snow goddess strolled down the tree. She had a pair of ice and snow ethereal eyes.

Luo Shanhe's eyes suddenly opened wide, and his feet slipped and fell down
