"Gu Yue, let's go."
Fang Yang's gaze sharpened slightly. He raised his hand and made a light slash in the void.
Riiip—
A deep spatial rift tore open in response, its edges flickering with the silver light of spatial power and emitting a faint hum.
Light and shadow swirled within the rift, as if connecting to another world.
On the other side of the rift was precisely the Demon Plane, a place filled with chaos and depravity.
Under the dark-red canopy of the sky, twisted mountains and flowing lava could be seen. The air was thick with the mixed stench of sulfur and blood.
Faintly, the roars of demons could be heard, a sound that made one's blood run cold.
Hearing this, Gu Yuena gave a slight nod.
Her silver hair fluttered gently in the fluctuations of spatial power, accentuating her serene and peerlessly beautiful face.
Fang Yang turned to look at the group behind him, his tone calm. "Gu Yue and I are enough."
"The environment of the Demon Plane is too dangerous for you. Its chaotic laws will not only erode your minds but also corrode your soul power."
"If your willpower is not firm enough, you might even be assimilated into demons who know nothing but slaughter."
The group exchanged glances. Though unwilling in their hearts, they were keenly aware of the gap in their strength and could only nod in agreement.
Fang Yang smiled faintly, exchanged a glance with Gu Yuena, and the two of them stepped into the spatial rift simultaneously.
With a flash of silver light, their figures vanished within it.
The rift slowly closed, and tranquility returned to Sea God Island. Only the faint spatial fluctuations remaining in the air served as proof of what had just transpired.
...
Demon Plane.
The moment Fang Yang and Gu Yuena stepped out of the rift, a chaotic aura, so thick it was almost tangible, washed over them.
The air was heavy with the stench of sulfur and decay.
The dark-red canopy of the sky hung low, with no sun or moon in sight. Only a giant blood moon hung in the firmament, emitting an ominous red glow that bathed the land in an eerie light.
The light from the blood moon seemed corrosive, even twisting and deforming shadows.
The earth was dry and fractured, with dark-red lava flowing slowly through the cracks. In the distance, the roars of demons could be heard intermittently.
The entire plane was suffused with chaos and tyranny, where all living beings were trapped in an endless cycle of slaughter and devouring.
"The laws of heaven and earth in this place... are filled with chaos and tyranny."
Gu Yuena said softly. A faint silver light appeared around her, repelling the eroding chaotic aura.
Fang Yang's expression was calm as his gaze swept across the surroundings.
"The Demon Plane is completely different from the Douluo Continent. Here, order is a luxury, and chaos is the norm."
He closed his eyes and focused. His soul power spread out like invisible ripples, carefully perceiving the state of the plane.
A moment later, Fang Yang opened his eyes, his gaze locking onto a majestic black mountain range in the distance.
"Over there." He pointed in the direction of the mountains. "I can sense the Demon Emperor's aura."
The two of them transformed into two streaks of light, one black and one silver. Like meteors tearing across the dark-red sky, they flew towards the black mountain range.
Along the way, they could see all manner of demons slaughtering and devouring one another.
The law of the jungle was the only rule of survival here; chaos and slaughter were the eternal theme.
A demon that had just killed its foe would be ambushed by a stronger one. In the midst of chaotic melees, other demons would tear and bite frantically, ignoring their own injuries.
Blood and severed limbs splattered everywhere, only to be quickly absorbed by the parched earth.
The closer they got to the black mountain range, the stronger the demons became.
From low-level imps to demon lords, some had even reached the Title Douluo level.
When these demons sensed the auras of Fang Yang and Gu Yuena, they all instinctively shied away.
Their primal instincts told them that these two beings were not to be trifled with.
Before long, Fang Yang and Gu Yuena arrived in the sky above the black mountain range.
