--- Chapter 226 ---
Yu Long observed the surroundings with marvel.
Although the Illusory Demon Realm exists on the sa planet as the Azure Cloud Continent and Profound Sky Continent, this place has a different atmosphere.
There are so similarities, but the air, flora, and fauna have mutated prominently.
"If I started here, I could have recovered from the Kaiju Maker faster." He mumbled out of simple observation.
"Of course, the Illusion Demon Realm has less God's Legacy than the Profound Sky Continent and has no Ancient Devil Beasts like the Azure Cloud Continent, but they won by sheer variety."
Yu Long walked to a coconut tree and tapped it once, which caused a coconut to fall. His strength control is so perfect that only one coconut fell at a ti.
He cracked the coconut with his finger and tasted the water, "Hmm..."
"The coconut is sweeter than expected. It also makes rehydrate faster. There is a subtle hint of profound energy, but it was less than 0,001%."
"Maybe I should try planting so trees?" Yu Long thoughtfully rubbed his chin.
"What do you think, Freya?"
"I think it's a great idea, Master," Freya answered calmly from the Kaiju World. "After reforming so lands and vegetation, I noticed this planet has imnse potential."
"We can unearth the land beneath the ocean and slowly create a ring of fire to raise life. Making fertile land is easy, but maintaining it is hard, so we could use Pandora's mutated profound beasts to introduce so head start."
Yu Long's mouth twitched, "I'm talking about planting trees on a small scale."
"Like a garden."
"Oh?" Freya giggled nervously. She was too ambitious.
"Then, you can try finding so volcanoes with vast bodies of water nearby."
"I will handle the rest."
"What kind of trees do you want to plant, Master?"
"Fruits." Yu Long replied casually. "If possible, I want apples, pears, oranges, lons, and waterlons."
Freya noted Yu Long's order and comnted solemnly, "Hmm, give a few days."
After that, Freya left the Kaiju World and flew out of the beach.
Yu Long watched the purplish-green light fleet away to the horizon and shook his head because he hoped Freya didn't cause trouble for him.
Chu Yueli and Yona landed near Yu Long, eyeing their surroundings with great interest. In Yona's right hand is fainted Xiao Lingxi, who looks like soone who just experienced life and death mont.
"It's just like the Azure Cloud Continent again." Chu Yueli murmured while crouching on the ground and picking a handful of sand. Each grain felt nice in her hand.
Yona thew Xiao Lingxi to soft grass, glanced at Chu Yueli and also picked a handful of sand. What she did next with it baffled Chu Yueli, though.
The green-haired lady clenched her hand and turned the sand into molten glass, leaving Chu Yueli speechless. She played around with the molten glass before making it as dark as ebony night, shaping it into stylish sunglasses.
"Master, for you." Yona cooled the sunglasses and handed them to Yu Long.
"Too much sunlight is not good for your eyes."
"..." Chu Yueli.
What the hell?
Yu Long glanced at the sunglasses, "Okay..."
"Thanks, Yona."
Yona smiled. "Mm."
Not long after, a bright light greeted Yu Long, and the behemoth that was Nine-Knot Grim Ichthyosaur transford into her humanoid form. Unlike her seniors and fellow Kaiju, however. Onny didn't fully transform into a human and has a Kaiju-esque appearance.
(An: Nine-Knot Grim Ichthyosaur's na will be Onny from now on)
Onny stood around 4'11 feet or less than 150 centiters. She looks like a lithe teenage girl with a tanned physique, wet purple hair, sharp shark-like teeth, and dark draconic scales on her neck and collarbone.
She wore a very exposing dark-blue hakama with a bandage beneath it and short pants, making her look like a delinquent young lady.
Yona eyed Onny and mumbled, "Should I wear this kind of clothes too?"
"No, you don't." Yu Long could only imagine the disaster if Yona wore sothing this exposing. Much blood would get shed because of it, especially from the nose.
Onny sniffed with her little nose and said, "Oh, your people are going to arrive in a few minutes, Master."
"You can sll them?" Chu Yueli asked curiously.
Onny nodded and explained, "My nose is a little special. I can sll and rember different scents before storing them at the back of my head."
"Even if you're a clone of soone, I can still distinguish the difference between two scents."
"Onny's range is over one hundred kiloters." Yu Long chuckled because he made her this way. "She could even sll the chemical components in the air to help her with detection."
"Like a hunting dog?" Yona uttered suddenly.
"Exactly!" Onny gave Yona a nod. "I'm the best when it cos to hunting prey."
"They are here, by the way."
Yu Long and others glanced back, seeing a group of gray-clothed figures walking from the lush forests. He narrowed his eyes slightly because the embroidery was 'ticulously' done on the uniform, which caught his attention.
Made with subtle yet refined red threads, the words 'Heavenly Demon Cult' are embedded on the back of the gray uniform with a golden underlining.
The characters are arranged like wings as if signifying that they could soar above gold, that is, heaven.
The one leading these people is a middle-aged man. He looks over his forties with a tall and refined appearance.
Even though he wore the gray uniform like any other, his long braided hair, sharp mustache, and beard made him look like soone who was very wise and people wanted to depend on.
Yu Long recognized the middle-aged man, "Ah, Old Man Fu Zhong!"
"You're the one leading this team, huh?"
"Yes, Lord Shadow." Fu Zhong is one of Shadow Realm's founders. In fact, he was one of the oldest mbers, with the age of over eighty-nine.
"I've brought the team to the Illusory Demon Realm and developed the Heavenly Demon Cult as our base here. We have infiltrated all minor and major cities, recruiting natives as our cult mbers."
"However, we haven't touched the Demon Imperial City yet and waited for your order first."
Yu Long nodded in understanding, "Good."
"How many mbers do you guys have right now?"
Fu Zhong grinned, "One million cult mbers ready at your service, Lord Shadow."
"One million? Damn." Yu Long couldn't believe his ears for a second. One million is a lot of mbers. Even the Azure Cloud Continent's branch didn't have that many mbers.
"You didn't do anything shady... Right, Old Man Fu Zhong?"
"Hehe, don't worry." Fu Zhong answered assuringly. "I'm doing everything with enough moral standards."
"We followed the Shadow Realm's thod and recruited abandoned orphans and castaways in the Illusory Demon Realm. You can't imagine how many of them are dying every day."
"The Illusory Demon Realm might look calm on the surface, but greedy people are still fighting under it and causing much misery over a few decades."
"Anyway, after getting these recruiters. We gave them ho, trained them how to survive, and instilled so belief, that's it."
"So belief, huh?" Yu Long snorted, to which Fu Zhong innocently responded by raising his arms in defeat.
Fu Zhong glanced at the people behind him and added, "Yuan Lin, co out."
"Give Lord Shadow your daily schedule in the Heavenly Demon Cult."
"Yes, Great Protector!" A young woman walked out of the group and stood before Yu Long.
Yu Long observed the young woman and found her cute with her bob-cut black hair, gleaming brown eyes, and round face.
"Hello, Lord Shadow." The young woman greeted Yu Long with her raspy and determined voice. "My na is Yuan Lin, and I'm Great Protector's twelfth disciple."
"Three months ago, I was just a dying mber of society and cast aside because of my low upbringing. Let's not ntion my cultivation talents because I'm the lowest talent in my hotown. My appearance is like ugly duckling."
"No one wants to take in, not even my parents, as they had to feed my other sisters so they can marry good husbands."
"However, Great Protector took in one day."
"He trained based on the Shadow Realm's standard.
"In the morning, he would give us theoretical knowledge about a wide range of things, starting from the values of money, dicine, and basic understanding of elents."
"Then, we will do physical training by noon, usually sparring against each other. There is a ranking list in the Heavenly Demon Cult, and I'm currently the 3rd."
"After that, we will have free ti to do anything we want, as long as we don't do chaos or discriminate against others, until dinner ti."
"Filling our stomach, the last daily task is praying."
"Praying?" Yu Long raised his brow.
Yuan Lin gave Yu Long a nod, "We will pray for 15-45 minutes toward you, Lord Shadow, hoping you'd protect us from harm and evil. This practice is mandatory in the Heavenly Demon Cult, and so even prayed for a longer ti."
"Then, we sleep."
"Rinse and repeat every day~!" She finished with a high-pitched voice.
Fu Zhong looked at his disciple in satisfaction, "That's right. Without Lord Shadow, the world would have no light. He'd guide us to the heavenly path and cast others in his mantle of darkness."
Damn it, Old Man Fu Zhong!
You have so loose screws in your head!
"..." Yu Long's mouth twitched slightly.
'I only left you guys for a few months, and you actually built a religion that worshiped ?'
