The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 1544: Activating the Altar

Before long, the illusory figure of the ancient Great Devil in the void completely dissipated. With Ling Feng's talent and comprehension, a single glance was enough for him to grasp the method to operate the altar.

Even so, he felt uneasy. He was not a true descendant of the Gulandor clan. Could he really control this altar?

Another thought troubled him even more. Did he truly have to expend the energy within the Great Devil Core to activate the altar and send all the devilkin of Chloe City back to the Demon Domain?

They were devilkin, while he was human. By all logic, they stood on opposing sides. There was no reason for him to care about their fate.

"That's wonderful. This is truly wonderful!"

Not far away, City Lord Isa was still immersed in her overwhelming joy. After countless years, they could finally leave this place.

At this moment, Ling Feng could strike her down with a single palm. He could activate the altar on his own and return to the human world. He could even use the Realm-Piercing Shuttle and leave without spending any of the core's energy.

With the power contained in that ancient Great Devil Core, he could save years of cultivation!

A trace of greed rose within him. A voice seemed to echo endlessly in his mind. They are only devilkin. Why save them? There is no need to save them!

"No! That's not right!"

In the next instant, Ling Feng shook his head forcefully and cast those thoughts aside.

"City Lord Isa, go inform everyone in Chloe City. Have all the devilkin gather inside the altar. I will activate it and send everyone back to the Demon Domain!"

Ling Feng took a deep breath and spoke slowly. Isa did not notice that his eyes had turned red. Blood vessels filled his gaze.

"Oh!"

Isa snapped back to her senses. She quickly bowed deeply. "Yes, my lord. Thank you, my lord!"

After speaking, she turned and hurried off to spread the news to all the citizens of Chloe City.

Only after watching her leave did Ling Feng let out a long breath. His whole body felt as if he had just gone through a fierce battle. He nearly collapsed from exhaustion.

"Kid, do you even know how much energy it takes to run that altar? Is it really worth it for those devilkin?"

Despicable Donkey's voice echoed in his mind, filled with complaint. If he were in his place, there would have been no hesitation at all.

"No matter what, City Lord Isa brought me here. Besides, that Great Devil Core was left behind to save the devilkin of Chloe City. I cannot keep it for myself. Whether they are devilkin or human, I cannot go against my own heart. If I do, it may give rise to inner demons!"

Ling Feng took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes. He stood still and waited quietly for Isa to return.

"Hmph! You are the only good person around."

Despicable Donkey muttered. After a moment of thought, he realized that if not for Ling Feng's nature, he might not have gone from resisting him at the beginning to following him wholeheartedly now.

The wait did not last long.

There were not many devilkin left in Chloe City. In total, there were only four to five hundred.

"My lord, all the residents have gathered!"

Isa looked at Ling Feng with excitement. She had not expected this man to resolve a predicament that had lasted tens of thousands of years the moment he arrived.

"Good."

Ling Feng nodded and strode toward the depths of the altar.

Deep within that illusory starry expanse stood a platform over three zhang tall. Behind it were two star gates. Both had been completely sealed by the power of the Immortals and could no longer be opened.

Ling Feng walked to the front of the altar and took out the Great Devil Core. Following the method taught by the ancient Great Devil, he activated the immense demonic power within the core while circulating the Void Eye to connect with the power of the void.

His Void Eye had only reached the first stage, yet it came from the devil empress Ke Weili. Its bloodline was pure beyond doubt. Even among the Gulandor clan, it would rank among the nobility. Establishing a connection with the void posed no difficulty.

Before long, the star gate on the right behind the altar began to emit a faint glow. Then an image from the Demon Domain actually appeared within it.

"Is that the Demon Domain? That is the Demon Domain!"

The devilkin of Chloe City were instantly stirred with excitement. Even through the passage, they could sense the power of the Demon Stars from the other side. It made them feel stronger.

The twelve Demon Stars shining within the Demon Domain were the true ones. That was the real source of the devilkin's power.

"Enough. Don't waste time! Form a line and enter the passage one by one. I cannot maintain this for long!"

Ling Feng shouted. The devilkin who had still been in shock quickly lined up in order, afraid of being left behind.

Under Isa's organization, after a little more than two hours, all the devilkin had entered the teleportation passage. Only Isa and Ling Feng remained outside.

"My lord, thank you. I truly don't know how to repay you!"

Isa looked at Ling Feng with deep emotion. She bit her lip before speaking again. "If my lord is willing, after we return to the Demon Domain, I will stay by your side. Even as a servant, I am willing."

"We will talk about that after returning to the Demon Domain!"

Ling Feng felt a bead of sweat form on his forehead. He had no interest in taking a devil woman as a servant, nor did he have any intention of going to the Demon Domain.

If he encountered a true Great Devil, his identity would be exposed.

"Yes, my lord. I will wait for you!"

Isa straightened her posture and cast him a captivating glance.

Ling Feng's face flushed slightly. His martial heart was firm, but he was still an ordinary man.

After taking several deep breaths, he watched as Isa stepped into the teleportation passage. Only then did he raise his voice toward the passage.

"City Lord Isa, I'm sorry. I'm not a devilkin! After you return to the Demon Domain, live well. Until we meet again. No, it is better if we never meet again. I hope the devilkin never invade the human world again. If we meet next time, we may not stand as friends!"

After speaking, Ling Feng immediately took out the Great Devil Core and sealed the passage to the Demon Domain completely.

Isa stepped into the passage and realized Ling Feng had not followed. Instead, he had closed the passage. Confusion filled her heart.

Faintly, she heard him say something about never meeting again. Her brows furrowed slightly. Could it be that he disliked her?

Soon, the passage was completely sealed. Ling Feng did not care whether Isa had heard him clearly. Matters of the Demon Domain were no longer his concern.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Feng took out the Great Devil Core again. He prepared to open a passage to the human world. The Realm-Piercing Shuttle was an option, but this teleportation passage was clearly more stable.

At that moment, a strand of spiritual will suddenly emerged from within the Great Devil Core. It startled Ling Feng so badly that his heart nearly stopped!
