Chapter 1435 - 920: Hierarchies of Three, Six, and Nine?

"Fall down, fall into the grass." Du Yu repeatedly beckoned the Demon Beast.

"Moo!" The Demon Beast said impatiently, its massive figure standing tall at the peak of all mountains, and Du Yu was also enveloped beneath its belly.

Du Yu cradled the Jia Rong Grass: "Grow taller, wrap yourself around the Demon Beast."

Jia Rong Grass: "..."

It had been struck by the Demon Beast’s thunder for hundreds of years, and now its master wanted it to embrace the Demon Beast?

The inner voice of Jia Rong Grass was naturally rejecting this!

But after all, this was the command from the Lord of Mountains and Seas...

Jia Rong Grass kept silent for quite a while, but eventually started to grow wildly.

"Moo?" The Demon Beast naturally sensed the anomaly, it lowered its beast head, opened its large mouth, and tore off a large piece of deep red grass leaf!

"Stop!" Du Yu was quite annoyed, "Don’t eat the grass! With such a big mouth of yours, you’d eat the whole mountain bare in two or three bites!"

The Demon Beast widened its bovine eyes: "Your words make no sense. I am a cow! A cow!

Why wouldn’t you let me eat grass?"

Du Yu: "..."

Suddenly, Little Fen Yang appeared: "Niuniu is right~ Niuniu eats grass!"

Du Yu felt helpless in his heart and connected with the Demon Beast mentally: "Hold off on eating Jia Rong, we need to focus on more important matters."

"Moo." The Demon Beast, quite impatient, spat out the grass leaves in its mouth.

This little break of grass, who cares to eat it.

"Heehee~" Little Fen Yang giggled, "Du Yu Du Yu, I’ll go convince Niuniu."

"Thanks, Little Fen Yang."

"Then Du Yu will have to feed me fruit later~"

"No problem!" Du Yu agreed readily and plucked a handful of Jia Rong Grass Fruit, popping them straight into his mouth.

Jia Rong Grass: "..."

"How about it?" Du Yu watched as Jia Rong Grass wrapped around four bovine hooves, "Do you feel the sensation of the Supreme?"

Jia Rong Grass was bewildered: "The sensation of the Supreme?"

Du Yu nodded and said: "Yes, do you feel that somewhere in the unknown, a grand door is opening for you?"

Jia Rong Grass remained silent for a good while, and apologetically said: "Master, forgive Jia Rong’s ignorance, I cannot perceive any grand door."

"Is it impossible?" Du Yu thought it was a pity.

Could it be that the Dragon Ship Flower was an exception?

Or perhaps there was a close bond between Flowing Fire and the Dragon Ship, supporting each other, while the Demon Beast was not on good terms with Jia Rong Grass?

Du Yu cradling a large piece of deep red grass leaf, turned to look at Master Qing and shook his head in resignation.

Yang Qingqing pondered for a moment, and asked: "Where is your true form?"

Jia Rong Grass’s heart tightened instantly!

Earlier, when the Demon Beast bit down on the grass leaves, Jia Rong Grass didn’t mind, because these grass leaves weren’t its true form.

In the mountains, Jia Rong Grass could grow as many grass leaves as it liked.

As it had promised Du Yu before, if the master desired, Jia Rong could cover the entire Mountain Realm.

At this moment, Master Qing asked where Jia Rong Grass’s true form was?

In front of the Demon Beast, how dare Jia Rong Grass reveal its true form?

"Right!" Du Yu’s eyes lit up and he asked, "Where’s your true form?"

Jia Rong Grass was somewhat troubled: "Master..."

Du Yu directly interrupted Jia Rong’s Supreme: "Do you trust me."

Jia Rong Grass: "Of course."

Du Yu: "Am I not your master?"

Jia Rong Grass: "Yes."

Du Yu said in a stern voice: "Now, reveal your true form, come to me."

Jia Rong Grass replied solemnly: "Yes!"

The ground gently trembled, and Du Yu took this opportunity to communicate with the Demon Beast mentally: "Supreme Demon Beast, make sure not to harm Jia Rong Grass’s true form.

Jia Rong belongs to me, it is my demonic plant."

The Demon Beast: "Moo."

Yang Qingqing parted the tall grass leaves and came beside Du Yu: "Is everything arranged?"

Du Yu understood Master Qing’s intention and immediately nodded.

Just then, in the earth in front of the master and disciple, a piece of deep red grass leaf slowly emerged.

In terms of both color and shape, it was indistinguishable from the surrounding Jia Rong Grass leaves.

Du Yu unceremoniously reached out and grasped the grass leaf.

Instantly, Jia Rong Grass trembled slightly.

Du Yu: "These hands of mine have shot through the Cold Tree Heart, and hacked apart the Cold Tree Root, completely destroying the Youhan Tree.

The Cold Tree is the creator of the Youhan Realm and the supreme divine within the Youhan Realm.

I originally thought I merely eliminated an enemy, taking the life of the Youhan Tree, and nothing more.

But the Saint of the Sea of Sorrow told me clearly I took more than just its life!"

Beside him, Yang Qingqing raised her slender jade hand, gently placing it on the grass leaf.

Jia Rong Grass leaf trembled lightly: "Ma- Master."

Du Yu’s heart stirred: "What?"

Jia Rong Grass: "I don’t, I don’t know, Jia Rong..."

Du Yu mentally called: "Supreme Demon Beast, move a hoof over here."

At this moment, the Demon Beast looked a bit cross-eyed, watching Little Fen Yang on its bull nose: "Ah?"

Du Yu: "Easy now, be gentle."

The Demon Beast widened its bovine eyes, a faint strange feeling arose in its heart.

Gentle?

The authority of the Lord of Mountains and Seas, so grand?

"What’s wrong with Niuniu?" Little Fen Yang sat on the bovine nose, her little legs swaying outside.

Sensing that the Demon Beast was somewhat odd, Little Fen Yang quickly added: "Niuniu needs to listen to Du Yu, he is our Demon Tamer!"

Du Yu cautioned: "Slowly, Supreme Demon Beast, don’t step on Jia Rong Grass."

"Moo!" The Demon Beast looked at the tiny creature below, slowly stretching its left front hoof forward.

No matter how light the movement of the Supreme Lord, it was still earth-shattering.

As the hoof gently descended, a rush of wind rippled away.

Du Yu shielded the grass leaf with his body, as the wind waves subsided, he also pressed the wide grass leaf toward the hoof.

Jia Rong Grass: !!!

At the same time, the Demon Beast’s bovine eyes focused intently, sensing a slight difference.

Jia Rong Grass: "Master, I... Jia Rong..."

"Speak!"

Jia Rong Grass said with guilt: "Jia Rong can’t explain it, this feeling is very mysterious."

"As the saying goes, a bird rises high alongside a phoenix." After speaking, Du Yu paused conspicuously.

Speaking like this, it’s quite embarrassing...

Du Yu quickly gathered his thoughts: "In short, you are my Demonic Plant.

You have always loyally served me, slaying enemies for me, managing the order of the Mountain Realm, and assisting me to move forward.

As I mentioned earlier, I destroyed the highest deity of a realm. No matter what I reclaim from Youhan, you should benefit from it somehow."

Jia Rong Grass: "Jia Rong... seems to have seen something."

Du Yu hurriedly asked: "What did you see?"

Jia Rong Grass: "A path."

"A path?" Du Yu and Yang Qingqing exchanged glances, then said, "A path, a door, it doesn’t matter what it is. As long as you can break through your limits and keep moving forward."

Jia Rong Grass said with conviction: "I saw it!"

"Huh?" Kui Chou was full of incredulity, could it really be true?

Really! Truly!?

Yang Qingqing inquired: "How did you see it?"

"By steadfastly adhering to the Dao of existence!"

Jia Rong Grass continued to convey its thoughts, especially solemnly: "As the master just said: Follow the Lord of Mountains and Seas, serve with loyalty."

Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Yang Qingqing’s face.

She liked hearing such words.

Yang Qingqing’s way of Demon Taming was forcibly changed by Du Yu.

And the Jia Rong Grass before her, without changing its existence’s way, at least gradually recognized and followed the new Lord of Mountains and Seas after Du Yu contracted the Mountain and Sea Bell.

Any excellent Demon Tamer naturally has proficient Demon Taming Techniques, able to make their Demon Pets and Demon Soldiers loyal and protective at any cost.

But Yang Qingqing’s demands were higher.

She hoped that every living being around Du Yu, including Demonic Plants that couldn’t be contracted and even the Human Race, would treat Du Yu this way.

Firstly, Du Yu is deserving.

Moreover, he is not a taker; on the contrary, he gives more to the people and things around him.

Secondly, Du Yu truly needs power.

He needs all the forces that can tightly unite around him to help him face the unknown road ahead.

The Youhan Tree faced by the Twin Tree Realm is indeed powerful.

But compared to the Youhan Tree of the Ashen Continent, the difference between the two is objectively significant.

The Ashen Cold Tree has already conquered a world, and it’s unknown to what extent it has grown.

And Du Yu’s goal, unexpectedly, is it...

Thinking of this, Yang Qingqing sighed deeply.

She knew she shouldn’t think about these things. After all, today is the second day everyone has returned home, and she had just left the battlefield not long ago.

She too needs rest, needs to relax that always tense spirit.

"Give me some time, master." The aged voice of Jia Rong Grass imprinted into Du Yu’s mind.

"Okay." Du Yu retracted his hand, "Just in time, I’ll go touch the Shatang Tree again."

"Touch the tree?" A sudden hoarse voice came from behind.

Du Yu turned his head to see a burly man with white hair and dark skin staring wide-eyed at him.

Kui Chou quickly floated to Du Yu’s body: "What tree are you touching, touch me first!"

Du Yu: "..."

"Pfft~ haha!" Little Fen Yang floated down and sat on Du Yu’s neck, embracing Du Yu’s head with small hands, "I want to stick too."

Du Yu said helplessly: "We chopped the tree together, we should have all gotten something~

Even if I got more, after cutting down the tree, we fought together on the battlefield for more than a month, it should have worked by now."

"Ah..." Kui Chou looked very regretful.

Du Yu’s expression turned serious: "The cultivation paths of Demonic Plants and Demon Beasts are different. Kui Chou, you still need to start from the rules."

"That’s true." Kui Chou muttered, floating up thoughtfully, gazing at the vast Mountain Realm.

Du Yu looked at Kui Chou lost in thought, he hesitated again and again, but still said: "We’re leaving now, Kui Chou, the Supreme.

Don’t bully Jia Rong Grass!"

The white-haired man glanced at the mountains, impatiently waving his hand.

"Whew~" Du Yu flipped his palm, and the Bell Shadow flickered open.

Only then did Kui Chou lower his head, looking at the place where Du Yu had disappeared, muttering: "Good lad, indeed has something."

Meanwhile, at the Sea Realm·Sea Reef.

Yang Qingqing was surprised to find that her apprentice seemed to be in a bit of a bad mood?

She asked with concern: "What’s wrong?"

Du Yu shrugged helplessly: "The Dragon Ship was right, the promotion of Demonic Plants has nothing to do with rules, it’s purely about enhancing their Power Tier."

Yang Qingqing thought for a moment and understood why Du Yu had such an expression.

Indeed, Demonic Plants and Demon Beasts are incomparable; the difference is very evident.

After a moment of silence, Yang Qingqing said softly: "This world has never been fair."

Du Yu: "Master Qing, do you think the difficulty of cultivation may determine the final height too?"

Yang Qingqing did not respond, refraining from making premature judgments.

But in Du Yu’s heart, he had already created a hierarchy.

Demon Beasts are the highest tier, like Empress Huangtu, perhaps they can cultivate above the Supreme level.

Demonic Plants are next, the Supreme level is likely the ceiling.

Strictly speaking, the Saint Level is the ceiling for Demonic Plants; it would take great fortune to see the path upward again.

Demon Soldiers are at the bottom.

Du Yu’s conclusion came because his interaction with Demon Soldiers was the most frequent!

On the battlefield, Du Yu constantly used Demon Soldiers, and each of his Demon Soldiers participated in the complete destruction of the Youhan Tree, their spirit had reached an outrageous level!

In this situation, the Demon Soldiers showed no reaction.

So, are Demon Soldiers, created postnatally, truly one tier lower than Demonic Plants and two tiers lower than Demon Beasts?

What about Spiritual Artifacts?

Shen Meng Nan did say that the Spiritual Artifact·Void Axe is on my Life Plate.

Hmm...

The most critical issue arises!

At which tier does the limit of the Human Race fall?
