Chapter 1575 Unknown Demon
The leader of Nine Heavens Law and Order began recalling what his subordinates told him with a somewhat stiff expression, almost as if he couldn't believe what he was uttering.
"This demon was only a Spirit King when they initially encountered it but had a breakthrough toward the end, reaching Spirit Emperor."
"However, even before reaching Spirit Emperor, this demon could fight with the escapee, who was restricted to the Divine King realm, even overpower them to a certain extent."
"Once this demon reached Spirit Emperor, it was able to fight five Divine Kings simultaneously, even killing one of our members."
"This demon wielded two different weapons, a sword and a spear, being exceptionally proficient with the sword—to the point where he could use Enhanced Sword Aura. Moreover, both of these weapons were Soul Weapons."
"This demon's regenerating ability is also no joke, being able to recover within seconds after having their entire body annihilated."
"Not only did they have a ridiculously fast regenerating speed, their body was also incredibly durable."
"This demon wore a mask, but it had no visible horns or unique skin color, a common trait amongst demons. Furthermore, it had the aura of a beast."
"..." Qian Chu listened to the information of this potential demon with raised eyebrows.
He'd studied and encountered more than anyone within the Demon Sealing Clan, yet he'd never encountered a demon that could wield Soul Weapons, much less two.
While demons are naturally powerful and could fight humans with higher cultivation than itself, not even a Demon Emperor could fight someone eight realms stronger, let alone five at once.
The most ridiculous claim about this demon was that it could use Enhanced Sword Aura. Demons specialized in blood techniques and their own bodies, and there had never been a record of a demon using Sword Aura, much less Enhanced Sword Aura.
If Qian Chu had to be honest, he would outright refute these claims. However, there was no reason for the Nine Heavens Law and Order to fabricate such information, especially since their leader had personally shown up to share it. The details were simply too elaborate to be a joke.
"So, what do you think? Ridiculous, right?" The Nine Heavens Law and Order leader said with an embarrassed face.
"However, I have verified the information myself. My members have no reason to lie about this, and they looked genuinely shaken by their encounter with this demon."
Qian Chu quickly replied, "I would be lying if I said that I don't doubt such information, but if a demon with this sort of capabilities were to truly exist, our world would definitely be plunged into another chaotic era—perhaps one that's even more chaotic than the last one."
The Nine Heavens Law and Order leader swallowed nervously after hearing such words, and he said, "Regardless of if this entity is a demon or a ghost, we must find it and ensure that such a thing won't happen."
Qian Chu nodded and said, "I will have all of my Supreme Demon Sealers and Master Demon Sealers look into this demon."
"Thank you! I will also contact the Demon Sealing Grotto so we can work together. The sooner we deal with this threat, the better!"
Although the leader knew these two powers rarely collaborated and, more often than not, clashed with each other, they were not in a position to be picky. If this demon turned out to be the real deal, they might have another war with demons.
Qian Chu didn't object to the leader's idea to involve the Demon Sealing Grotto, knowing they would inevitably learn of the situation and intervene, regardless of the Demon Sealing Clan's stance.
The Nine Heavens Law and Order leader didn't linger and immediately went to the Demon Sealing Grotto.
Qian Chu also summoned all of the Supreme Demon Sealers and Master Demon Sealers to an urgent meeting, something that has not happened since he became the leader of the Demon Sealing Clan.
The demon sealers were taken aback by the sudden summoning. Filled with a mix of anticipation and a touch of dread, they swiftly assembled at the headquarters.
At the meeting, Qian Chu revealed the situation to the demon sealers, who responded with skepticism rather than shock or fear. "I know what you're all thinking, but the leader of the Nine Heavens Law and Order personally delivered this information to me. Regardless if this entity is a demon or something else, it raises too many concerns and must be looked into."
"Do we have a description of this demon?" Someone asked.
Qian Chu retrieved a large scroll and revealed a painting of Yuan on it.
"This was created by those who encountered the demon. It has all of the details they could recall. Study it and memorize it."
While the Demon Sealing Clan was having their meeting, the Demon Sealing Grotto was also preparing to hunt this demon. After hearing how ridiculously capable this demon was, they decided to make hunting it their number one priority.
Over the next few days, hundreds of powerful demon sealers would be sent to the Fourth Heaven.
Meanwhile, Senior Bai had trouble standing once Kelan recalled everything to him.
"Dear heavens… are you sure you weren't hallucinating? Yuan only became a cultivator a few years ago… How in heaven's name is he already fighting immortals? Even if their cultivation was suppressed, their experience should've made an insurmountable difference. Or are you telling me that he'd managed to acquire what others need tens of thousands of years to learn in just several years? Do such terrifying talents truly exist in this world?"
"Trust me, I know how you feel, and I witnessed it first-hand. He's the real deal—a real monster." Kelan sighed.
He continued, "What should we do now? Although the Nine Heavens Law and Order aren't aware of his identity now, they eventually will."
Senior Bai pondered for many minutes with a serious expression on his face before speaking, "I'll seek guidance from the Celestial Overlord. Don't utter a word of this to anyone else before I return."
"Naturally." Kelan nodded.
