My Informative Cultivation Life

He turned and slipped into the ninth layer.

This layer was just as vast, the black fog enshrouding everything. Yang Ji flew carefully for only a short distance before he spotted a majestic city, within which a demonic army numbering a hundred thousand was stationed.

Given such a sizeable force, it was fortunate there were no Demon Emperors present; otherwise, Yang Ji would have turned tail and fled.

At a glance, information about countless demon kings surfaced, making Yang Ji's heart race.

As a transformed demon, he didn't hesitate. He flew straight toward the city and began his stealthy assassination of demon kings, employing the Demonic Soul Melody and Yin Yang Separation at Dawn.

One, two, three heads fell amidst the thrill of danger.

Due to the sheer size of the city, Yang Ji was able to silently claim the lives of more than a thousand demon kings before he was discovered.

However, amidst the chaos, Yang Ji cracked a smile and, camouflaging himself as another demon, commenced his killing spree once again.

Back and forth, he hunted and killed twenty thousand demons.

Panic!

The breath of death spread among the demon throng.

Yang Ji was like a specter, bestowing death upon the demons from the shadows.

His transformation technique was simply too sophisticated; constantly taking on the guise of other demons, he was virtually undetectable.

An atmosphere of panic filled the city as the demons continuously searched for this Reaper to no avail.

Once the sentiment of dread took root in their hearts, many demons could no longer keep their composure and scattered in every direction, fleeing for their lives.

Yang Ji, of course, didn't bother hunting down these lone demons, the main reason being it was a waste of time.

After all, tens of thousands of demons remained in the city; they were his true targets.

Just as he was about to renew his hunt, a demon king bellowed, "Form up! Our bodies are branded with formation patterns. Anything that cannot merge with us is a spawn of the Demon Sect. I will tear him to shreds!"

In a thunderous moment, mysterious runes lit up on countless demons, merging into one another. The remaining tens of thousands of demons actually condensed into a colossal Ancient Demon, emanating a terrifying presence.

This formation was similar to the Myriad Demon Killing God Array that Yang Ji had encountered formed by Heavenly Demons in the Thousand-Islands Sea Area, which could also gather the power of all demons.

Upon sensing it, Yang Ji knew he could not withstand a punch from this demon.

Nearly seventy thousand demons, of which over thirty thousand were demon kings, combined all their strength to create the Ancient Demon. Its power was beyond imagination, and it quickly detected Yang Ji who couldn't merge.

"Kill him!"

"Roar!"

The Ancient Demon roared, its might intimidating. A punch came forth, collapsing space and tearing the ground asunder, and this was just the impact of its force.

Were the punch to land solidly, even Yang Ji, whose body was comparable to a Dao Device, would be overwhelmed.

"Such a clever formation, capable of gathering the strength of all demons to form an Ancient Demon. If the Human Race could possess such a formation, I suspect even a minor sect could unleash tremendous power," Yang Ji mused enviously as he fled.

"The Demon Sky Clan has a unique physique, capable of dispersing and recombining, and this formation is based on their bodily characteristics, nearly impossible to replicate. However, the Human Race has its own powerful formations, such as the Harmonious Light and Dust Grand Array, the All-Swords-to-One Array, the Array of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and so on.

These grand arrays can also gather the power of cultivators and unleash terrifying might. One is highly mobile and can move at will, while the other wields incredible power but must defend a fixed position, each with its own strengths and weaknesses," the Immortal Elder explained.

Yang Ji nodded and, as he was pursued by the Ancient Demon, transformed into a streak of black light and disappeared into the fog.

He didn't stop there because the ninth layer was vast, with many such cities.

Soon, he found another city teeming with tens of thousands of demons.

And he began the same process once more.

Skulking, transforming, slaughtering.

This act played out time and time again!

Yang Ji was too powerful. By using such cunning methods, the demons simply couldn't stop him.

Although they would always resort to using formations to drive him away, in that process, Yang Ji reaped enormous gains.

Thus, he moved from city to city, wreaking havoc. He set foot in over eighty cities, slaughtering well over a million demons.

Among them were as many as two hundred thousand demon kings, a terrifying figure.

In just half a day, a "great earthquake" had struck the ranks of the demons, and word spread like wildfire through their ranks. All demons of the first nine layers of the Demon Abyss became aware.

All the demons, like startled birds, believed it was the Clone Technique of a Demon Sect heirloom that acted. They all became cautious, keeping their distance when encountering others and signaling them to reveal the formation patterns branded within. If absent, they would be met with certain death.

This method indeed restricted Yang Ji's movements. However, while the demons were on high alert defending the ninth layer, he quietly slipped into the tenth.

After flying for a while, he spotted a city but didn't enter it, instead halting in his tracks.

"Demon Emperors, and not just one—it's three Demon Emperors, equivalent to Void Refining existences who have touched upon the Dao. I would undoubtedly die should I encounter them!" Yang Ji observed from afar, his Golden Finger revealing information about three Demon Emperors.

He quickly took a detour, seeking the next city.

Tens of thousands of miles away, he encountered another city, but once again there was information on a Demon Emperor within.

"Could it be that these demons are now aware of my actions, preparing defenses against me, and ready to hunt me down?" Yang Ji's eyebrows twitched, doubtful in his heart.

So he continued searching for cities. After coming across five more, without exception, each was guarded by at least one Demon Emperor, if not three.
