Four hundred and ninetieth eight chapters stepping stone
Chapter 498: A stepping stone
"Sir, this is the most luxurious palace in the camp specially prepared for distinguished guests."
A slender Earth Demon maid carefully accompanied Zheng Haotian and Shang Huang. She showed off her most beautiful smile. But it was a pity that the cold-faced Earth Demon royal family did not look away.
, not even interested in taking a look at her.
"I know, you can go down." Zheng Haotian waved his hand gently and said.
Although the Demon Maid was full of unwillingness, she did not dare to disobey the orders of an adult with royal blood. She hurriedly bowed and retreated with three steps.
Shanghuang sneered and said: "A small vassal race actually dares to get close to you, my lord."
Zheng Haotian smiled dumbly. Although he didn't know much about the Earth Demon clan, he still knew some things.
Under the vast underground, the number of the Earth Demon Royal Family is not large, and every Earth Demon Royal Family is a valuable asset to the Earth Demon Clan.
They are born with huge strength and potential. As long as they practice diligently, the possibility of being promoted to a spiritual body in the future is almost 80%.
However, compared to the vast underground world, the number of the demon royal family is too small.
Therefore, all the major races in the underground will do everything possible to obtain the blood inheritance of the Earth Demon Royal Family.
I don’t know how much time has passed since the evolution. The underground world is still headed by the Earth Demon Royal Family, but it has an even larger number of royal bloodline branches.
Although they are only side branches, the strength and potential possessed by these side branches are far superior to those of their peers.
They are the backbone of the underground world.
Of course, this side bloodline will gradually weaken after several generations, so each clan will try their best to obtain more royal bloodline inheritance.
And if she is lucky enough to be able to serve the Earth Demon Royal Family and is lucky enough to become pregnant, then the status of the woman just now will rise to the sky and she will become the envy and protection of countless people in the tribe.
So even though she knew it was unlikely to win the favor of an Earth Demon royal family member, she still couldn't help but give it a try.
As if he could tell that Zheng Haotian was in a good mood, Shang Huang suggested: "Sir, I just went to inquire about it. There are still five royal family members living in the palace. Do you want to pay a visit?"
Zheng Haotian pondered for a moment and said, "Why do they want to stay here?"
Shanghuang said without hesitation: "Three of them brought gifts and secret messages from the clan to ask for a talisman. The other one was seriously injured on the battlefield and was unwilling to leave the battlefield, so
He will stay to recuperate. And the last one..." His eyes sparkled, and he said: "He is Lord Qatar, the proud son of the Karl family. He has super strength and potential in the way of talismans, so he came here to want to
Become a disciple of Lord Demon God."
"Master Fu Dao." Countless thoughts suddenly flashed through Zheng Haotian's mind, and he said, "That's fine, I'll go see that Qatar."
Shanghuang's eyes widened with a wry smile on his face, and he advised: "Sir, among these royal families, Lord Qatar has the worst temper. You'd better pay a visit to the other four first."
Zheng Haotian was slightly startled and said: "Why?"
"Because Mr. Qatar is cultivating the way of talismans, and apart from the way of talismans, he has no interest in anything." Shanghuang murmured: "Other royal adults are not talking to each other when they are with him, and they often do not agree with each other.
He was so angry that he walked away."
Zheng Haotian smiled slightly and said: "A royal who concentrates on practicing Talismanism? Hehe, that's better, I want to see it."
Shang Huang was dumbfounded. At this moment, he felt extremely regretful in his heart. He clearly knew that Lord Qatar had a bad temper, so why did he introduce it to him? What puzzled him even more was why Lord Tianhao was born with such a bad temper.
Expressed strong interest in Qatar.
※※※※
There are two palaces in the canyon with the largest area and the most luxurious decoration.
One of them is naturally the palace of the Demon God, and the other is a palace prepared for the beings of noble blood among the demons.
All the earthly demon royal family, the noblest race among heavenly demons, and the most powerful among human demons are eligible to live there.
At this time, there were only a dozen distinguished guests living in this huge palace, and there were only six of the Demon Royal Family.
Qatar's room is on the ninth floor of the palace. Although there is only one guest on this floor, there are nearly a hundred attendants.
When Zheng Haotian entered this level accompanied by Shang Huang, he lamented more and more that the luxury of the demons was far better than that of humans.
However, what Zheng Haotian didn't expect was that when he sent Shang Huang to explain his intention, he was not able to see Qatar as he wished.
"Dear Lord Tianhao, Lord Qatar is in seclusion to study a new kind of talisman, so he once ordered not to see any outsiders." An old earth demon came up to him and said with a respectful salute.
This old demon definitely did not belong to the royal family, but he had a powerful aura about him that even Zheng Haotian did not dare to underestimate.
Zheng Haotian frowned slightly and said, "Don't you see anyone in Qatar?"
The old demon hesitated for a moment and said: "Lord Qatar once said before retreating that no one is allowed to disturb him unless summoned by Lord Demon God's order."
Shanghuang stepped forward and whispered: "Sir, this Lord Qatar's personality has always been like this. In the nearly one year since he came here, he has rejected many invitations from adults and offended many royal families." He paused and turned his voice.
He pressed even lower: "We'd better stay away from such a person."
The muscles on the old demon's face twitched slightly, but in the end he still endured it.
Zheng Haotian's heart trembled. He smiled slightly and said: "Shanghuang, only when a person devotes all his energy to a certain aspect can he achieve the greatest success in that aspect. In order to study, Qatar
He gave up everything to follow the Tao. In my opinion, his future achievements will be limitless."
Shanghuang was stunned for a moment and nodded repeatedly, but in his heart he disagreed.
But the old demon's eyes softened, and when he looked at Zheng Haotian, he was no longer as calm as before.
With a slight movement of his hand, Zheng Haotian had already taken out a blank talisman and a spiritual pen.
The eyes of Old Old Demon and Shanghuang widened at the same time...
At this moment, even if Zheng Haotian suddenly took out a magic weapon and killed them, he probably wouldn't be able to shock them so much.
Putting the blank talisman on the table, Zheng Haotian stretched out his hand and flicked it. A large amount of spiritual power suddenly filled the air and entered the talisman along the spiritual pen.
What Zheng Haotian refined was not a great dark talisman, but just an ordinary clone talisman.
It's not that his strength is insufficient, but that in a place with insufficient spiritual power, if he were to refine the Great Dark Talisman, it would inevitably cause huge changes in the world. That would not be a show of strength, but a show off.
The spiritual pen moved like a dragon and snake in his hands, and he had finished refining the talisman in almost a moment.
He stretched out his hand and rolled it up, and the talisman was automatically put away.
"You give this to Qatar. If he still refuses to see me, then I will turn around and leave." Zheng Haotian looked at the old demon and said slowly.
"Ah... yes, respected sir." The old demon stretched his hands forward, took the talisman with an extremely humble attitude, and then walked backwards.
As an old man who has served Qatar for many years, although he does not understand the refining method of talismans, he still knows a lot about the level of spiritual talisman masters.
Zheng Haotian's actions just now, as well as his smooth and relaxed manner, seemed to be no less than that of Qatar. Therefore, his attitude towards Zheng Haotian had completely changed.
"My God, Master Tianhao." Shanghuang swallowed deeply and said in disbelief: "You are actually a spiritual talisman master."
"Yeah, is it weird?"
"Ah... this, it's not strange." Shang Huang said with a bitter face. However, in his heart, he secretly said, "It's not strange that there is a ghost!"
The old demon walked swiftly through several rooms and arrived at the innermost room of the palace on this floor.
Here, there is a remote and quiet elegant room, with two tall demons guarding the door.
Old Earth Demon waved his hand gently, and the two Earth Demon guards immediately tiptoed away. Old Earth Demon adjusted his clothes and finally pushed the door open and entered.
Inside the door, a disheveled young demon royal held a spiritual pen in his mouth and drew something in the air with his hands. He seemed to be completely immersed in his own world.
After a while, as if he suddenly sensed something, he turned around suddenly and said, "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me during my retreat?"
The old demon lowered his head and said respectfully: "Sir, something unexpected happened."
"What's the surprise? Is the Demon God willing to see me?" Qatar said with surprise.
"No." Old Demon said slightly embarrassed.
"Since it's not the case, that's fine. There's nothing that can compare to me studying the art of talismans." Qatar waved his hand gently, signaling for him to leave immediately.
The old demon gritted his teeth and said: "Just now, a royal person refined a talisman and asked me to bring it to you for review. So..."
"Fulu?" Qatar's eyes suddenly lit up.
In this world, if there is anything else that can arouse his infinite interest, it is probably these two words.
"What talisman did he refine?"
"I don't know, little old man."
"You...forget it, show me where the talisman he refined is." Qatar waved his hand and said helplessly.
"yes."
The old demon respectfully handed over the talisman.
A trace of doubt flashed across Qatar's face. He originally thought that the man had refined an amazing dark talisman, but when he took a quick look at it, he was greatly disappointed.
This turned out to be just a clone talisman. Even a talisman practitioner who had never stepped into the realm of the Demon King was somewhat confident that he could refine it.
"Hmph, why does he want to refine this talisman?"
"That man came to see you, and said that if you still don't see him after seeing this talisman, then he will turn around and leave."
Qatar laughed loudly and said: "It's just a clone talisman, and you want me to see him. You really don't know the heights of the world..." His laughter suddenly stopped, and he let out a cry of surprise, and his eyes flashed.
, staring at the talisman in front of him, silent for a long time.
