Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Even though this is just an avatar, if Holy Emperor Vorenus really wanted to, wiping out everyone in the Mystic Realm would be a snap of his fingers.

As Holy Emperor Vorenus approached step by step on the golden path, Timothy could feel an overwhelming oppressive force bearing down on him.

This pressure, although not as intense as that of Goddess Sylvia, was undeniably the terrifying presence of an Emperor-level powerhouse.

Timothy sighed inwardly.

He had been right about this secret realm from the start.

This place was a total trap.

Not only were there seven hidden powerhouses messing around, but in the end, there was even an avatar of an Emperor-level powerhouse!

Timothy's focus was now entirely on the system store.

Once Holy Emperor Vorenus made his move, he could only use the Celestial Feather Form one more time.

At times like this, there wasn't much time to worry about whether he could repay the skill points.

After all, staying alive was what mattered most.

As Holy Emperor Vorenus drew closer, a barely detectable murderous intent emanated from Timothy, and a few white feathers quietly drifted down from the sky.

Each feather, though delicate and soft, seemed to conceal endless lethality!

But suddenly, Holy Emperor Vorenus paused in his steps and stopped.

His eyes, which had been lofty and dismissive, suddenly narrowed.

"Why do you carry the scent of that woman on you!" Holy Emperor Vorenus's voice carried a hint of dread and fear.

"Huh?" Timothy was startled, noticing the obvious terror in Holy Emperor Vorenus.

In just a moment, he figured out the reason.

Though his wife was as gentle and adorable as the girl next door during their dates, she also had another identity, a terrifying one at that!

Timothy smiled, "Are you talking about Goddess Sylvia?"

The moment he finished speaking, Holy Emperor Vorenus's expression drastically changed.

Though he didn't respond, his face said it all to Timothy.

"Raising the difficulty of the secret realm, tampering with the treasures of three legendary Holy Emperors. If I'm not mistaken, you're looking to possess a body with great potential, right?" Timothy suddenly continued, facing Holy Emperor Vorenus.

He had felt something was off the moment he entered the Mystic Realm.

Turns out, his suspicions were correct.

"How dare you lecture me, you're asking for death!" Holy Emperor Vorenus instantly flew into a rage.

"Are you sure?" Timothy reached into his chest, deliberately letting the aura of the bonding stone waft out.

This unique scent of Sylvia, filled with endless chill, instantly froze Holy Emperor Vorenus in his tracks, sending a cold shiver through his body.

Ever since he was nearly slain by Goddess Sylvia with a single sword strike two hundred years ago.

This fear had been deeply etched into his bones.

Not to mention that what had come today was merely an avatar left here by Holy Emperor Vorenus as part of his plans.

For this avatar, the boundless fear was only deeper.

Just hearing the name of Goddess Sylvia was enough to make him recall everything from the past.

In an instant, this once invincible avatar of the Holy Emperor took a step back, gritting his teeth, seemingly lowering his stance, "What exactly is your relationship with Goddess Sylvia?"

Timothy replied, "Would you believe me if I said she's my wife?"

"Bullshit! Goddess Sylvia is such a cold figure, she sees any man as nothing more than an ant. How could you possibly..." Holy Emperor Vorenus's words cut off abruptly.

He suddenly realized that unless one had close contact with Goddess Sylvia, there's no way Timothy could carry such a familiar scent.

He definitely hadn't sensed it wrong.

Could it be that the high and mighty Goddess Sylvia had really... fallen in love!

This was huge news!

As an avatar, he had been lurking here for a hundred years, long disconnected from his original self.

Although this avatar didn't dare provoke anyone related to Goddess Sylvia, if he could send this news back, it would be like finding Goddess Sylvia's biggest weakness!

Previously, Goddess Sylvia seemed like a flawless being, impossible to bring down from any angle.

But today, he finally had his chance!

"Kid, regardless of the truth, for Goddess Sylvia's sake, I'll spare your life. But next time we meet, it won't be so simple."

Holy Emperor Vorenus's avatar snorted coldly, his imperial might pressing outwards.

He clenched his hand in the air.

"Boom!"

The Mystic Realm's barrier, previously fortified with various formations and seemingly unbreakable, was shattered with a single palm strike.

Holy Emperor Vorenus's avatar soared into the sky, his gaze icy as he swept over Timothy before breaking through the air.

"System, is there any way to track where he's going?" Timothy immediately called out to the system.

[Ding, the system store sells a Tracking Sigil that even an Emperor's avatar can't detect, priced at 3 skill points.]

"Buy it!"

After a successful exchange, a Sigil visible only to Timothy shot out, catching up with Holy Emperor Vorenus's avatar at high speed and quietly attaching to his body.

Even if Holy Emperor Vorenus was fast on his feet, Timothy wasn't about to let him go.

With the secret realm shattered and Holy Emperor Vorenus fleeing, golden light sprinkled down, and the true treasure of the Valley of the Undead finally descended.

The three legendary Holy Emperors were buried here, sharing a common legacy.

A jade seal slowly floated down, landing in Timothy's hands, covered in mysterious text and patterns.

On the top was inscribed Mystic Emperor Kael, on the left Sage Empress Orielle, and on the right Sky Emperor Aerion.

Below them was engraved the "Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest"!

The lingering brilliance showed that this Crest was far more mysterious than it appeared!

[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the Valley of the Undead mission, reward received, the second meridian of the Ancient Saintly Body is unlocked, the host has advanced to Mystic Core.]

"Boom!"

At the broken gap, clouds gathered instantly.

Deafening thunder roared across the sky, and a tremendous aura burst forth from Timothy.

In an instant, he triggered the thunder tribulation that comes with advancing to Mystic Core!

The system reward had finally unlocked the second meridian of the Ancient Saintly Body, channeling the extreme yin energy.

This energy was invisible and colorless, resembling a murky gray mist, utterly bizarre in its nature.

It had no temperature and wasn't tangible.

Yet as it flowed, it was like the primordial chaos at the dawn of creation—bone-chillingly cold and intensely frigid.

It was almost incomprehensible, defying understanding.

Indeed, the Ancient Saintly Body was one of the most mysterious and profound saintly bodies, its secrets and powers likely even greater than Timothy had imagined.

But more pressing than this...

Timothy looked up.

The barrier shattered by the avatar of Holy Emperor Vorenus had revealed the sky outside.

At this broken spot, endless rolling dark clouds gathered.

The sky was pitch black, the clouds continuously twisting and piling up, growing taller and taller.

Layer upon layer, the clouds seemed to form a towering, majestic hall.

Yet within this dark hall, flashes of lightning flickered continuously, illuminating the ominous assembly with their stark, relentless glow.

"Boom!"

A terrifying bolt of purple lightning struck down, but it hung suspended in mid-air, as if frozen in time.

Then, a second clap of thunder sounded.

Two bolts of purple lightning remained suspended, their ends converging at one point.

Then came a third, and a fourth...

Each bolt of purple lightning, though not fully striking down, continued to gather.

With each successive flash of lightning, a vast and overwhelming pressure seemed to permeate the entire sky, like the wrath of gods ready to unleash their fury across the heavens.

Someone's definitely broken through a boundary here.

But not every breakthrough triggers a thunder tribulation.

Only a rare few with exceptional talents can attract such a phenomenon.

And even then, it's usually just a minor tribulation.

But what we're seeing now is beyond anything they could have imagined.

"This is... the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation!"

Someone recognized it suddenly.

A freak of nature, defying the heavens.

Only a very few, those who can truly enrage the heavens, could attract such a terrifying tribulation.

And the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation is one of the most powerful among them.

Even in the annals of thousands of years, there are only a few instances of someone triggering a Ninefold Thunder Tribulation.

And most of those were powerful beings stepping into the Transcendence Realm or even the Ascension Phase.

Triggering such a terrifying phenomenon just by breaking through a Mystic Core is unheard of, something not even documented in the books!

Nine purple thunders converged at one point.

As the lightning merged, the nine stationary thunderbolts suddenly began to move.

The lightning flickered wildly, and amidst the roaring thunder, an immense pressure spread to every corner of the Mystic Realm.

It was as if the gods themselves were furious, unleashing a catastrophe!

Amidst the rolling thunder, endless rage was contained!

"This level of tribulation is not something a Mystic Core can withstand!"

Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief as they stared at the sky.

They were amazed by Timothy's strength, but they definitely didn't believe he could withstand such a tribulation.

It was clear the heavens wanted him dead right here!

"Boom!"

Like a cataclysmic explosion, the ground shook and rocks crumbled.

In the violent ripples, the entire secret realm trembled.

The nine purple thunders, unable to be contained any longer, seemed like demons descending, capable of tearing the heavens and earth apart!

This thunderbolt, capable of destroying everything and turning it all to ash, carried an immense and terrifying pressure as it fell straight towards Timothy.

It seemed capable of leveling everything!

Watching the thunderbolt strike, Timothy also showed a hint of seriousness.

"Ancient Saintly Body, first meridian, activate!"

Golden patterns instantly climbed up Timothy's arm, and under this golden cover, his originally slender arm became as hard as rock.

The patterns, flowing like magma, seemed to contain vast power, boosting Timothy's aura in an instant.

"Ancient Saintly Body, second meridian, activate!"

An extremely cold aura enveloped Timothy, chilling to the bone yet eerily profound.

With the Ninefold Celestial Thunder just 30 feet away, Timothy finally grasped the Sacred Tri-Emperor Crest in his hand and hurled it towards the sky.

A brilliant golden light covered half the sky, and within that dazzling light, three figures appeared.

Mystic Emperor Kael, Sage Empress Orielle, Sky Emperor Aerion.

These were the phantom images of three Holy Emperors!

Those who witnessed this scene were utterly shocked and incredulous.

Could this be the true legacy treasure of the Valley of the Undead?

No, this was more than just the power a legacy treasure could emit.

If it weren't for Timothy controlling the Crest, it wouldn't possess such terrifying power!

The three Holy Emperor phantoms collided with the Ninefold Celestial Thunder.

"Boom!"

The massive impact turned into a raging wave of air, violently sweeping across the entire secret realm.

This powerful sweeping force, like a giant hand, struck the ground.

In the violent windstorm, clothes fluttered and screams erupted.

Those with weaker cultivation couldn't control their bodies and were sucked into the vortex.

"Boom!"

Another wave hit, and those who couldn't withstand the wind were harshly thrown against the ground and rock walls.

But when they looked up at the sky, everyone was stunned to find.

The three legendary Holy Emperor phantoms had shattered, but the seemingly all-destructive Ninefold Thunder Tribulation had also been forcefully repelled!

The towering clouds still seethed with residual anger but seemed to have exhausted all their energy, unable to muster any more thunder.

Through the clouds and the shattered secret realm, a ray of sunlight slowly shone down.

That ray of sunlight just happened to envelop Timothy, making his figure appear sacred and solemn.

Combined with the allure emanating from the Ancient Saintly Body, the few remaining female disciples in the Mystic Realm instantly screamed:

"He's so hot!"

"I feel like my brain, my heart, and every cell in my body are all saying I love him!"

"Timothy, I want to sleep with you!"

"Once we leave the secret realm, I'm heading to Sky Sanctuary, even if Goddess Sylvia kills me I don't want to leave!"

"Goddess Sylvia's 'Uselessness of Spiritual Partners' deeply influences the disciples at Sky Sanctuary, and Brother Timothy probably doesn't have a girlfriend yet, I might still have a chance!"

Numerous beautiful female cultivators all looked dreamily at Timothy in the sky, unable to take their eyes off him.

The male cultivators, on the other hand, were completely shocked by this bizarre event.

Attracting the Ninefold Thunder Tribulation and resolving it effortlessly.

Once the secret realm opens, this incredible feat will instantly spread across all major Sects!

Only a handsome young man in a brocade robe, holding a staff, had a hint of coldness in his eyes.

What he cared about was one thing.

Why were the rumors saying that this person had a close relationship with Goddess Sylvia?
