Chapter 176 All Hail the Demon Lord!

All the Demon Venerables were so shocked they didn't know what to say.

They looked at Lu Changsheng, their eyes mostly filled with shock.

Because the Supreme Scepter of the Demon World was only a legend.

Only the true Demon Lord could condense the Demon World Scepter.

However, even more terrifying was that, with the True Demon Hall as the center, the earth cracked, mountains and rivers turned into plains, and ancient buildings rose from the ground, emitting brilliant light.

Each ancient city exuded an immortal aura, containing the essence of time, and now they emerged from the earth, reappearing in the world.

"These are ancient holy cities!"

A Demon Venerable opened his mouth in shock, revealing a secret.

"Ancient holy cities? Are you talking about the legendary Immortal Holy Cities?"

"Hundreds of epochs ago, our Demon World had an ancient holy city, incomparably glorious. The entire holy city could accommodate tens of millions of Demon Race cultivators, it was extremely magnificent. But the main thing was the holy palace in the center of the holy city, which exhausted all the luxuries of the world. It is said that every brick and tile was cast from glazed immortal stones. Could it be that we will see such splendor today?"

"No, no, no! The holy city is definitely not just what you said. The real holy city has three hundred and sixty-five cities, and each one has a Demon King-level Tianyuan Formation. Three hundred and sixty-five Immortal King-level Tianyuan Formations linked together are equivalent to half a Demon Emperor Formation, possessing the power to seize heaven, with unparalleled attack, defense, and spiritual gathering capabilities."

"That's right, the real holy city is not because of how big or luxurious it is, but because of the three hundred and sixty-five Immortal King formations. In other words, the demonic energy in the holy city is ten times, a hundred times thicker than outside. So in that era, our Demon World cultivators could contend with the Immortal World."

"If the holy city truly revives, a new era belonging to our Demon World is about to arrive."

"Hahahaha, good, good, good. In this epoch, the Immortal World has suppressed us too much. Now our Demon World can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Demon Venerables of the Five Regions, pay respects to the Demon Lord!"

"Demon Venerable Changqing, pays respects to the Demon Lord!"

At this moment, one Demon Venerable after another knelt on the ground, they were extremely sincere, without any distracting thoughts.

Originally, their reaction to Lu Changsheng's appearance was not good, after all, everyone had been fighting for the position of Demon Lord for so long, and you suddenly ascended and said you wanted to be the Demon Lord, who would be happy about that?

But what they didn't expect was that Lu Changsheng was actually so handsome. Although everyone was initially resistant, the more they looked at him, the more pleasing he became. The more pleasing he became, the more they felt that it wasn't impossible for Lu Changsheng to be the Demon Lord.

Moreover, Shan Ting recognized Lu Changsheng, and more importantly, Lu Changsheng had now been recognized by the will of the Demon World, holding the Demon World Scepter, which was supreme power. In addition, even the ancient holy cities had been revived.

What was there to not acknowledge?

The sooner you lick, the sooner you profit, the later you lick, the more you lose.

One Demon Venerable after another knelt down to pay their respects. In the Demon World, kneeling was an extremely solemn ceremony, representing complete surrender.

Seven hundred and twenty Demon Venerables, most of them knelt down.

Only less than a hundred Demon Venerables were still hesitant.

And Jialuo clenched his fists, filled with frustration and unwillingness.

He had already reached the Great Perfection of the Demon Venerable realm. As long as he took one more step, he would be a Demon Saint-level powerhouse. Once he broke through to the Demon Saint realm, he would indeed be qualified to become the Demon Lord. Although there were three Demon King-level existences in the Demon World.

But those three could not become the Demon Lord, because they had encountered their own troubles. They would not appear on weekdays, and were comprehending the Heavenly Dao, wanting to go further, otherwise, they would not be able to withstand this epoch.

Because when they reached the level of Demon King, their lifespan was close to infinite, but at the end of each epoch, they would encounter the Calamity of the Epoch. When they were young, it was naturally fine, but when they got old, the Calamity of the Epoch began, and it was very troublesome.

If they survived, they could live for another five epochs, if they didn't survive, they could write about their life.

Therefore, if Lu Changsheng had not appeared, he, Jialuo, would have been the most likely to become the Demon Lord, and many Demon Lords supported him.

But now Lu Changsheng had actually summoned the Supreme Scepter of the Demon World, he didn't know what to say anymore.

"Jialuo! Do you still want to go back on your word?"

Taishang Qing's voice rang out, he saw that Jialuo was not kneeling for a long time, and couldn't help but shout.

In an instant, Jialuo took a deep breath, he bent down and clasped his fists and said, "I recognize Changsheng as the Demon Lord, but I will not kneel. From now on, I, Jialuo, will be a subordinate of the Changsheng Demon Lord."

Jialuo spoke like this, but he had his own pride and did not kneel. After saying these words, he turned and left, saying, "I still have some things to do, I will go back and reorganize my forces first. If the Demon Lord needs anything, just dispatch them directly."

After saying these words, Jialuo left, leaving with an extremely sad heart.

Some Demon Venerables followed Jialuo away, not many, thirty or so people.

Just then, Shan Ting picked up another notebook, staring at the Demon Venerables following Jialuo, he was a little clumsy, holding a pen with his elephant fingers, looking very funny as he recorded something.

This behavior made some hesitant Demon Venerables kneel directly.

Of the seven hundred and twenty Demon Venerables, more than six hundred had already submitted to Lu Changsheng.

The remaining dozens, as soon as they saw Shan Ting starting to write in his notebook again, immediately knelt on the ground, hurriedly pledging allegiance.

"I said long ago that this is our Demon Lord, but you didn't believe me? Master Shan Ting, have you finished writing? Let me help you check, if you missed anyone, I'll fill it in."

Demon Venerable Nanshan said, he was very excited, ran to Shan Ting and said this.

The Demon Venerables were stunned.

Shan Ting was also stunned.

This was really a clever little ghost.

However, on the throne.

Lu Changsheng looked at the Demon Venerables calmly.

But at this moment, Lu Changsheng, holding the Demon Scepter, quickly realized one thing.

He was not the Demon Lord, but he could be in charge of the Demon World and be recognized by the will of the Demon World's Heavenly Dao.

That's right, he was not the Demon Lord.

The real Demon Lord was someone else, but he had not appeared in the Demon World. However, he stumbled into the Demon World and was recognized by the Demon World's Heavenly Dao and chosen as the Demon Lord.

After learning this news.

Lu Changsheng's heart sank slightly.

Was this considered stealing someone else's position?

At the same time.

Immortal World.

In a large tomb.

A beautiful woman was standing in front of the tomb, looking a little helpless.

"Disciple, your teacher was forced to forcefully guide you to this place. The Demon World is constantly fighting. You have just ascended, and it is impossible to suppress the Demon World. Your teacher plundered the treasures of an era to help you cultivate. As long as you cultivate diligently, it won't be long before you can be promoted to the Demon Venerable realm. When you return to the Demon World, you can unify the entire Demon World! You stay here, it's dangerous outside!"

"Moreover, the Ten Thousand Immortal Mountains are about to open, which is a great opportunity for you! Do you know that?"

The old man's voice rang out.

The beautiful woman sighed, nodded lazily, and then began to cultivate.
