Chapter 32: Demonic Capital
update icon Updated at 2025/2/6 3:10:12

After killing the three Demon Kings, Xu Chen and her companions boarded the Black Kirin Cart and headed towards the Demon Capital. Along the way, they arrived at a cliff outside the city and gazed at the huge bronze columns, but unfortunately, they couldn't see Izayoi, which made Xu Chen extremely worried.

Xu Chen released the baby Yuan Yin and asked her to temporarily return to the temple residence and keep an eye on the bronze columns. If she spotted Izayoi, she was instructed to inform Xu Chen.

After all, the baby Yuan Yin's strength was only at the Monster level and wouldn't be of much help. So Xu Chen entrusted her to keep an eye on Izayoi's situation here.

As they flew on the flying cart according to the directions of the Demon Capital Orders, they traveled for more than ten days.

Finally, they approached the area where the Demon Capital was located.

At this time, the flying cart was still tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Demon Capital. However, in the boundless night sky, they could still see countless lights shining like stars. It was like a vast galaxy.

"These... these endless lights in the distance, could it be... the Demon Capital!?" Xu Chen exclaimed while standing at the front of the cart.

"What else could it be? Such a vast and magnificent city, like a starry version of the Milky Way. Compared to this demon realm, the Demon Capital is undoubtedly the indisputable number one city!" Qingyin lifted the cart curtain and looked into the distance, speaking.

After flying for another half a day, they finally arrived at the foot of the Demon Capital.

The sky in the distance was dyed yellow by the lights of the Demon Capital, which was called the Sleepless Milky Way. However, when they approached the foot of the Demon Capital, they couldn't directly see the lights, only a pitch-black wall that seemed to divide heaven and earth!

That wall was about tens of thousands of meters high, covering the sky, and without end in sight. The various mountains in the distance appeared to be like little hills in front of the wall!

Right in front of them, there was a huge city gate that looked like a natural barrier. The gate was probably a thousand meters high!

On top of the city gate, there were two big characters written in golden color that spelled "Demon Capital"!

These two characters were not only hundreds of meters high but also emitted a dominating aura that made people feel in awe.

According to the regulations written behind the token, flying above the Demon Capital was absolutely forbidden. Xu Chen and her companions got off the cart and kept it, then headed towards the city gate.

Near the city gate, they found a group of people gathered there. Xu Chen looked over and realized that none of them were weak. At the very least, they were all on the level of Demon Kings. They didn't enter the city but simply stood at the entrance.

When the three beautiful women, including Qingyin, approached, some demons made indecent gestures towards them. However, there were two teams of black-armored guards with red eyes guarding the city gate, preventing the demons from acting recklessly. These guards had extremely strong aura and were all on the level of Demon Lords, so the demons didn't dare to cause trouble.

"Those who are going to the Western Wind Cave, gather here! We will depart as soon as everyone is ready!"

"Those going to the Blazing Valley, come to the south side of the gate!"

Some demons shouted loudly.

"It seems like they are gathering here to form teams for adventures in the dangerous areas outside the city!" Star Dance said.

"Hmm!" Xu Chen didn't want her sisters to join forces with these lecherous demons, so she said, "Let's go into the city!"

At the city gate, Xu Chen showed the Demon Capital Order to the guards and they were allowed to enter the city without any hindrance. Xu Chen found that the Demon Capital Order wasn't something rare. Even without it, as long as they registered with the guards at the city gate and at least one member of the group reached the Demon King level, they could obtain the Demon Capital Order directly.

Thus, the three of them entered the Demon Capital.

Passing through the thousands of meters thick city gate tunnel, they entered the city and found that it wasn't as prosperous as it seemed from a distance, but rather somewhat desolate. Tall and terrifying buildings stood one after another in the night, with dim lights flickering. Some strange lanterns floated in the air. The streets were wide, and there were demons walking back and forth in pairs.

Just the main road leading out from the gate extended into the mist, infinitely deep. There were numerous pathways and buildings everywhere!

"The Demon Capital is incredibly vast. We should be at the West Gate now, but where should we go?" Xu Chen said.

"Look, there's a shop ahead. It seems like they have a map!" Qingyin pointed to a quiet shop on the street.

The three of them arrived at the shop and indeed found a map. Xu Chen bought one, only costing ten Spirit Stones. For Xu Chen, who had seized all the possessions of the West Venerable and the three Demon Kings, it was nothing at all!

"Boss!" After paying, Xu Chen asked the wrinkled little green-skinned old demon boss, "Didn't you say that Mojing is so prosperous? Why is it so deserted here?"

"Hehe, little miss, is this your first time in Mojing? The prosperity of Mojing is definitely not an exaggeration! However, Mojing is incredibly huge, and not every place is bustling! The whole Mojing is divided into four major districts: Qinglong, Baihu, Zhuque, and Xuanwu, with the legendary Central Yan Yu Floating Jing in between! Each district is comparable to a country! This is the West Gate, belonging to the Baihu District. It's a bit quiet near the city gate, but within the Baihu District, there are 88 shopping streets and 24 bustling places. However, the most prosperous places in the Baihu District are the three major locations: Motian Tower, Wanbao Pavilion, and Liuli Pavilion. Motian Tower is the largest building in the Baihu District, where major forces gather. It is thousands of feet high and offers various tasks, bounties, and treasure hunting opportunities! Wanbao Pavilion has one location in each of the four districts and is the holy land for buying, selling, and auctioning treasures. As for Liuli Pavilion, it is the most extravagant entertainment venue in the Baihu District, where you can find everything from delicious food to beautiful sights! These three locations are the most prosperous areas, and they are marked on the map. You will know the true grandeur and prosperity of Mojing when you visit!" the little green-skinned old demon said.
