Chapter 316 Guarding the Seal
Qingyun Sect also needs you. Bringing back the information here will allow the two factions to better coordinate and deal with possible crises in the future."
Lan Yunyan knew that Ling Xiuhan had made his decision, and that what he said made sense. Although she was extremely reluctant, she could only nod and agree: "Then you must be careful."
Ling Xiuhan nodded and watched Lan Yunyan leave.
He turned around, his eyes firmly fixed on the depths of the Demon Abyss, and thought to himself, "This position of Demon Lord must belong to me now. Only by commanding the Demon Realm with a strong presence can I suppress all forces and ensure the safety of the seal."
Ling Xiuhan ventured deeper into the Demon Realm and arrived before the Demon Palace. The palace was tall and eerie, emanating a thick aura of darkness. He strode in, and the demons within the palace gazed at him in awe upon seeing him approach.
Ling Xiu Han walked straight towards the hall deep in the Demon Palace. Along the way, he could feel countless pairs of eyes in the dark watching him, but his expression remained unchanged and his steps were steady.
Entering the main hall, Ling Xiuhan stood in the center and spoke loudly, "Although the Lord of the Demonic Abyss has been sealed, the crisis is not over. Today, I, Ling Xiuhan, will take the throne of the Demon Lord, command the Demonic Realm, and guard the seal. Do the demons have any objections?"
After these words fell, the hall fell silent. A moment later, a demon general stood up and shouted, "Although you have the merit of sealing the Demon Abyss, what is your virtue and how can you sit on the throne of the Demon Lord?"
Ling Xiu looked at him coldly, "If it weren't for me and the Qingyun Sect working together to seal the Demon Abyss, the Demon Realm would have been devastated by now. I have the ability and determination to protect this land. If you refuse to obey, come forward and give it a try."
With that, a powerful surge of magical energy surged from Ling Xiuhan's body, and the sword in his hand emitted a humming sound. The demon general was intimidated by his imposing aura, but still rushed forward.
Ling Xiu Han flashed and instantly appeared in front of the demon general. He swung his sword lightly, and a sword energy passed by. The demon general was pushed back several steps and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Seeing this, the other demons no longer objected and knelt on the ground, shouting, "Long live the Demon Lord!"
After Ling Xiuhan officially became the Demon Lord, he began to rectify the Demon Realm. He issued a series of new regulations, strictly prohibiting demons from invading the human world and encouraging them to cultivate their own magic power to enhance the overall strength of the Demon Realm.
At the same time, he set up multiple magic barriers around the Demon Abyss to strengthen the protection of the seal.
Under Ling Xiuhan's rule, order gradually returned to the Demon Realm. However, the peaceful days did not last long. One day, while cultivating in the Demon Palace, Ling Xiuhan suddenly sensed a slight ripple coming from the seal.
Startled, he hurried to the Demon Abyss, only to see the light at the seal dimmed slightly and the surrounding magical energy became somewhat chaotic.
Ling Xiuhan frowned, knowing full well that this was a dangerous sign. He began to carefully examine the seal, discovering that a corner of it seemed to be corroded by a mysterious dark force.
This power is extremely hidden. If he hadn't come to inspect today, it would probably be difficult to detect.
"Who is it? How dare they destroy the seal secretly!" Ling Xiu Han was extremely angry. He followed the remaining breath of the dark power and found that this power came from a mysterious valley deep in the Demon Realm.
Ling Xiuhan didn't hesitate at all, heading alone towards the mysterious valley. The valley was filled with thick, dark fog, and the further he went, the more oppressive it became.
Suddenly, a sinister laugh echoed through the valley. "Ling Xiuhan, do you think you can hold the position of Demon Lord? You sealed the Lord of the Demonic Abyss and thwarted our cause. Today is the day you die!"
Along with the laughter, a group of black shadows emerged from all directions. These shadows were illusory and exuded powerful dark magic.
Ling Xiuhan gripped his sword tightly and looked around vigilantly: "So you are the remnants of the Lord of the Demonic Abyss, trying to break the seal and release the Lord of the Demonic Abyss. Today I will completely eradicate you!"
After saying that, Ling Xiu Han took the lead in launching an attack. He exerted all his magic power, and the light on his sword became brighter. Sword energy slashed towards the black shadow.
The black shadows were not to be outdone and cast strange dark magic, engaging in a fierce battle with Ling Xiu Han.
During the battle, Ling Xiu Han discovered that the powers of these black shadows were interconnected. As long as he attacked one of them, the power of the other black shadows would be enhanced.
He thought calmly and decided to change his tactics. He cast a powerful magic barrier, enveloping himself and the shadows, and then concentrated his strength on attacking one of the shadows. Due to the restriction of the barrier, the other shadows could not provide timely support.
After a bitter battle, Ling Xiuhan finally eliminated the group of black shadows. But he knew that this was only the beginning. The remnants of the Lord of the Demonic Abyss would not give up easily. He had to be more vigilant and guard the seal well.
After Ling Xiu Han returned to the Demon Palace, he strengthened the monitoring of the Demon Realm, especially the pursuit of the remnants of the Lord of the Demon Abyss.
He knew very well that this battle to protect the seal would be a long, arduous and protracted war, but he did not retreat, because behind him was the peace and tranquility of the entire human world and the demon realm.
As the days passed, Ling Xiuhan became more and more stable in his position as the Demon Lord. He not only guarded the seal, but also worked hard to improve the relationship between the Demon Realm and the human world.
He maintained close contact with the Qingyun Sect, transmitting information through the blue cloud smoke and jointly discussing strategies to deal with the Demon Abyss crisis.
Lan Yunyan was not idle in Qingyun Sect either. After informing the sect master and teachers about the situation in the Demon Realm, she began to help the sect strengthen its defense capabilities.
She organized her disciples to practice spells specifically targeting the dark forces of the Demon Abyss, and also set up some early warning magic circles on the border between Qingyun Sect and the Demon Realm to detect possible dangers in a timely manner.
Once, the Qingyun Sect's warning magic circle suddenly sounded, indicating that an unknown dark force was approaching. Lan Yunyan immediately led the disciples to investigate and discovered that a group of magical beasts, corrupted by the aura of the Lord of the Demonic Abyss, were roaming the border.
Lan Yunyan commanded her disciples to cast spells and drive the monsters back to the Demon Realm. During the battle, Lan Yunyan demonstrated her powerful magical prowess and command ability, which made her disciples admire her even more.
Although they are in two different places, Ling Xiu Han and Lan Yunyan's hearts are always closely connected.
