Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1114 - Entering the Sacred Demon Palace Hall Again

At the Sacred Demon Palace Hall, the holy land of the demonic mountain:

When Chen Fan had ascended the demonic mountain for the first time, the Demonic Child of Darkness had stopped him from entering the Sacred Demon Palace Hall. This led to a fierce battle that nearly forced a Legendary Realm expert to intervene. Ultimately, the Adjudication Demon Palace Hall had to step in.

The Demonic Child of Darkness and the others had stopped him because he wasn’t a Myriad Demon Islands native.

However, no one stopped him from entering the Sacred Demon Palace Hall now.

Earlier, the divine wills of the nine great Demon Palace Halls had descended, and their words had echoed across the peak. While many didn’t immediately recognize Chen Fan, those who did began explaining his story, which shifted the crowd’s perception of him.

“It’s been over thirty years. When Chen Fan ascended the demonic mountain back then, he faced his Manifestation tribulation at the peak of the demonic mountain. Reckless and audacious beyond belief.”

“I was there,” another added. “I saw it myself. As crazy as it was, I can’t deny his monstrous talent. I’ve never seen such a terrifying Manifestation tribulation before in my life.”

“Right, and Chen Fan’s combat strength is also terrifying. He skipped ranks and defeated the Demonic Child of Darkness of the time, shocking the demonic mountain peak.”

“Yes, even the Sacred Demon Palace Hall couldn’t stop his advance and even allowed him to obtain the legacy of the Adjudication Demon Palace Hall.”

“In just a little over three decades, he has reached the ninth level of the Manifestation realm. How truly terrifying.”

“......”

Many who had witnessed that moment decades ago looked at Chen Fan’s back with mixed emotions.

Back then, their cultivation had far surpassed his; today, he had overtaken them all, while they remained stuck in place. Their admiration was tinged with shame.

Suddenly, someone cried out loud, pointing at Chen Fan.

“Look, he’s entered!”

Chen Fan had stepped into the Sacred Demon Palace Hall.

Outside the Sacred Demon Palace Hall, many demonic cultivators whispered as they watched Chen Fan disappear from view.

“He’s already in the ninth-level Manifestation realm. I’m sure he’s ascended the demonic mountain again to perceive the laws and push toward the Lesser Peak Manifestation realm.”

“You’re wrong,” someone else interjected. “If I’m not mistaken, he’s already begun perceiving the law.”

“What? Are you serious? That’s impossible!”

“I wouldn’t mistake it. I’ve spent the last ten years sensing the threshold of law myself, and there’s no doubt. He is emanating the aura of law.”

“Yes, that must be right. Why else would so many top figures respond to his presence?”

“In that case, he came to the demonic mountains and entered the Sacred Demon Palace this time to go a step further and wield the law. So, even if his cultivation is still at the ninth-level Manifestation realm, he will possess combat strength at the Greater Peak Manifestation realm!”

“Hoho, for a monster like him, cultivation breakthroughs are only a matter of resources. What he truly seeks is the road of Legend.”

“That’s right, the road of Legend. Perceiving the law is only the foundation, the startling line. Only by mastering it, turning it into his own strength, can he truly be said to have stepped onto that path.”

“The laws are very active in the Sacred Demon Palace Hall. It’s a holy land for perceiving the laws. Given Chen Fan’s talent, perhaps he’ll possess Greater Peak Manifestation realm combat strength by the time he comes out.”

“Now, I’m wondering if his combat strength will reach the quasi-Legendary level when he comes out of cultivation!”

“No way! That’s nearly impossible. Even the entirety of the demonic mountain peak doesn’t have many quasi-Legendary realms, and each one spent decades, if not centuries, bitterly cultivating. Even with a holy land like the sacred palace hall, it’s not easy to perceive and master the laws. I’d say, at most, he’ll grasp ten to twenty threads. You need fifty to hit the quasi-Legendary threshold.”

Chen Fan neither knew of their discussion nor did he wish to know.

There was only one thought in his mind: borrow the power inside the Sacred Demon Palace Hall to quickly comprehend and master the laws, and gain Legendary-level combat strength as soon as possible.

He was still thirty threads away. Not far, yet far from easy. Each thread of law was like a chasm—deep, vast, and impassable for most.

Some people were stuck at ninety-nine threads of law, failing to perceive and master the hundredth thread in their whole life, and unable to achieve the Legendary realm.

That single thread marked a threshold; it was akin to a dragon’s gate. Cross it, and one would stand at the summit of the continent, a figure others could only admire from afar.

Although there was only a difference of one thread between ninety-nine and a hundred threads of law, it was a qualitative change with an extremely wide gap.

Chen Fan was a monster who could contend against those above his level. No matter if it was the Heavenly Star realm or the Manifestation realm, he could skip several levels and kill his enemies.

However, in his battle against Nie Han, things were different. There was a difference of thirty threads of law, a range Chen Fan should’ve been able to bridge, yet the difference in their combat strength remained vast in reality.

Without the Bodhi ancient tree’s empowerment, he would not have been a match for Nie Han at all, despite Nie Han’s combat strength only being equivalent to a newbie Lesser Legendary realm expert with a hundred or so threads of law.

The reason was simple yet profound: the qualitative leap that came with mastering the hundredth thread of law. That final thread created a fundamental shift, one that couldn’t be countered by mere talent or battle instinct.

Once a martial artist crossed and achieved the Legendary realm, they could crush a quasi-Legendary realm with ninety-nine threads of law overwhelmingly.

Upon entering the Sacred Demon Palace Hall, Chen Fan immediately sensed the active laws inside.

The intensity was staggering, almost volcanic, marking the place as a world apart from anything outside.

Perceiving the laws inside here would be at least ten times easier compared to the outside world.

It was no wonder the demonic mountain peak had so many Legendary realm experts, and other than the nine longstanding demon palace halls, there were also many other demon palace halls.

These demon palace halls could only be established by someone with Legendary realm strength.

With a holy land to aid in the perception of law like the Sacred Demon Palace Hall, it was only natural that, after thousands of years of accumulation, the demonic mountain peak had numerous Legends.

When he had entered the Sacred Demon Palace Hall for the first time, he could already sense the presence of active laws; compared to now, that sensation had been vague and unfocused.

Now, Chen Fan felt as if the laws in the surrounding space were dancing around him.

He was ecstatic.

This worked in his favor. His Martial Soul was already powerful; with the empowerment of the Bodhi ancient tree, he would achieve double the results with half the effort in perceiving the laws. He was like a fish entering the vast sea, swimming freely.

He walked into the depths of the Sacred Demon Palace Hall, one step at a time with ease.

The deeper he went, the more vibrant and intense the laws became. Naturally, he wouldn’t linger in the outer areas where the laws were weaker.

Eventually, he stopped before a wooden door deep within the hall. Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Chen Fan closed his eyes and began his comprehension of the laws in earnest.
