Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character

”This is the Small Demon Suppression Prison guarded by the Kun Peng Clan...”

Lin Langtian gazed at the endless cluster of dark towers. Each black tower stood thousands of zhang tall, making him feel exceptionally insignificant in their presence. And even more terrifying was that the number of these dark towers was beyond counting.

Evidently, these dark towers held the sealed Hetero-Demons. With such a quantity of towers, just how terrifying must the number of sealed Hetero-Demons be?

”The ancient great war between heaven and earth was truly astonishing. And this is only a Small Demon Suppression Prison—I can’t even imagine how incredible the three Great Demon Suppression Prisons must be.”

Lin Langtian sighed lightly. Then, with a shift of his figure, he carefully approached the golden light barrier. Upon it, he detected an extremely terrifying energy fluctuation.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly. With a thought, the power of the two ancestral symbols enveloped him. Cautiously, he extended his palm and gently touched the golden light barrier.

Ripples spread across the barrier, but Lin Langtian’s palm passed through unscathed.

”The power of the ancestral symbols is indeed effective.”

Seeing this, Lin Langtian finally breathed a sigh of relief. With a movement of his body, he slipped inside the golden light barrier.

Once inside, Lin Langtian realized that the Demon Suppression Prison was far from quiet. From time to time, all sorts of shrill screams emanated from the black towers.

These screams carried an erosive effect on one’s mind, but fortunately, Lin Langtian possessed two ancestral symbols and the Golden Spirit Reincarnation Mirror, along with his Demonic Embryo. Thus, he wasn’t overly afraid.

”Some of the chains seem to have been corroded...”

Lin Langtian darted forward, carefully shuttling through the Demon Suppression Prison. He then noticed that some of the massive chains wrapped around the black towers showed signs of corrosion.

The ancient runes inscribed upon them had dimmed, and strands of Hetero-Demon qi would occasionally burst out from these points, then slip through the cracks in the golden light barrier above.

”It seems the Demon Suppression Prison has existed for too long, and Kun Qiong’s previous attempt to break through to the Reincarnation Realm disrupted the energy balance here, leading to the leakage of demonic qi.” Lin Langtian thought to himself.

”Hm?”

As Lin Langtian pondered, his expression suddenly shifted. Some unusual sounds reached his ears, and he turned his head. His pupils contracted as he saw.

Upon a particularly massive black tower, one of the wrapped black chains suddenly snapped at that moment. The clanging sound of the chain falling echoed piercingly through the Demon Suppression Prison.

”The sealing chain has broken?”

Lin Langtian stared at the fractured chain, his expression tightening. His figure hurriedly shot forward.

Roar!

Just as he moved, a beast-like roar erupted from the dark tower. Torrential black mist surged out, forming a thousand-zhang demonic qi python that lunged at Lin Langtian with bared fangs and claws.

Lin Langtian sensed the evil fluctuation behind him, and his face changed. He could detect numerous chaotic and savage consciousnesses within the demonic qi python—clearly, it wasn’t a single entity but a convergence of many powerful Hetero-Demons.

When these Hetero-Demons merged, their strength was something even a Reincarnation Realm expert would dread.

As Lin Langtian observed, the many chaotic consciousnesses within the demonic qi python gradually faded, replaced by an exceptionally savage and evil one. Evidently, they were devouring each other to grow.

”Damn humans, damn ancestral symbols!”

This devouring process eventually concluded. The demonic qi python’s eyes instantly turned blood-red. It gazed savagely at Lin Langtian ahead, roaring skyward as its speed surged dramatically, closing the distance between them in an instant.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian’s expression grew solemn. With a ruthless glint in his eyes, he whipped around and punched out. Surging flames erupted, transforming into a crimson fire dragon that smashed heavily onto the demonic qi python.

Bang!

A massive sound rang out. However, the demonic qi python only sustained minor damage before its surrounding demonic qi gathered once more. At the same time, the evil light in its blood-red eyes intensified.

Clearly, within the Demon Suppression Prison, with its endless supply of demonic qi, this demonic qi python was extremely troublesome.

Swoosh!

While Lin Langtian assessed it, the demonic qi python roared again and charged at him with thunderous speed.

”Hmph, courting death!”

Lin Langtian snorted coldly. With a thought, the evil eye at his brow slowly opened.

Sizzle!

Lin Langtian stood unmoving. Just as the black python was about to tear into him, a whooshing sound suddenly rang out. A sharp black claw shot forth from the void.

The claw seemed to pierce through space itself. In a flash, it appeared before Lin Langtian, whistling past his ear before carrying an indescribable terrifying force that directly impaled the pursuing demonic qi python from behind!

Ah!

The demonic qi python’s shrill scream echoed simultaneously.

”Master!”

After the demonic qi python dissipated, the owner of the claw emerged—it was none other than the Wolf Demon King.

Upon appearing, the Wolf Demon King didn’t even glance at the demonic qi python. Instead, he bowed respectfully to Lin Langtian.

It was as if what he had just slain wasn’t a fellow clansman, but a vile assassin.

”Mm, Wolf Demon King, you’ve had a hard time these days.” Lin Langtian nodded in satisfaction upon seeing that the Wolf Demon King hadn’t held back against the python despite it being of the same race. He smiled.

”It is my honor to go through fire and water for Master.” The Wolf Demon King’s expression was one of utter loyalty, his tone respectful.

After breaking through to King-rank Hetero-Demon, Lin Langtian’s status in the Wolf Demon King’s heart had surpassed even that of his Hetero-Demon clan’s leader, the Hetero-Demon Emperor. After all, the latter hadn’t helped him achieve this breakthrough.

At this moment, the Wolf Demon King knew that only by following Lin Langtian could he obtain even greater power.

Thus, even if Lin Langtian ordered him to turn his blade on his own kin, the Wolf Demon King wouldn’t hesitate. In the outer domain evil races, there was no such thing as tender sentiments.

After summoning the Wolf Demon King, Lin Langtian finally relaxed somewhat. After all, this Demon Suppression Prison, which held millions of Hetero-Demons, was far too dangerous. With the Wolf Demon King—a King-rank Hetero-Demon—guarding his side, Lin Langtian felt much more at ease.

”Spirit Aunt, what should I do next?” Lin Langtian asked inwardly.

After a moment, Spirit Aunt’s voice slowly rang out. ”The leakage of demonic qi from the Kun Peng Clan is due to the overwhelming demonic qi in this Demon Suppression Prison. If you can eliminate two of the Hetero-Demon Kings here, it might greatly delay the leakage and give you something to report back to the Kun Peng Clan.”

”Eliminate two Hetero-Demon Kings?” Lin Langtian’s brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this.

This Small Demon Suppression Prison held a total of eight Hetero-Demon Kings, each comparable to Reincarnation Realm powerhouses. If they could be eliminated so easily, the Kun Peng Clan wouldn’t have come seeking his help.

”Rest assured, those Hetero-Demon Kings are currently sealed within the Demon Suppression Prison, their strength far from its peak. With the Wolf Demon King assisting you, and the protection of the Golden Spirit Reincarnation Mirror, you might just have a chance. It’s worth trying.” Spirit Aunt said.

Hearing this, a contemplative look appeared in Lin Langtian’s eyes. If that was truly the case, then it was indeed worth attempting.

Though the Wolf Demon King had only recently advanced to King-rank Hetero-Demon, the King-rank Hetero-Demons in this prison had been suppressed for ten thousand years—their strength surely inferior to his.

With that thought, Lin Langtian made up his mind. He turned to the Wolf Demon King and said, ”Can you sense the auras of the eight Hetero-Demon Kings here?”

The Wolf Demon King slowly closed his eyes. After a long while, he opened them and respectfully replied to Lin Langtian, ”In response to Master, this place should be the human race’s Demon Suppression Prison for our kind. Indeed, it holds millions of Hetero-Demons and eight Hetero-Demon Kings.

Though the eight Hetero-Demon Kings are scattered across various locations, their astonishing demonic qi cannot be concealed. This subordinate has roughly determined their positions.”

”Oh, then lead me to the nearest location where a Hetero-Demon King is imprisoned.” Lin Langtian nodded.

”Yes, Master!”

With those words, the Wolf Demon King didn’t ask further questions. His figure moved, darting toward the west, with Lin Langtian following closely behind.

Moments later, when the Wolf Demon King halted, Lin Langtian also came to a slow stop.

Then, as Lin Langtian gazed at the scene before him, a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Before them stood an incomparably massive black tower, soaring over a hundred thousand zhang high. At a glance, it resembled a majestic mountain.

Atop the black tower, endless, dozens-of-zhang-thick black chains intertwined and extended, firmly locking down the hundred-thousand-zhang black tower.

”So this is where a Hetero-Demon King is suppressed. It truly is terrifying...” Lin Langtian thought to himself.

The black towers he had seen earlier were mostly only a few thousand zhang tall, while this one reached over a hundred thousand zhang. Evidently, only King-rank Hetero-Demons merited such treatment.

Sighing with a shake of his head, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly. Next, what he had to do was thoroughly eliminate the King-rank Hetero-Demon within this black tower.

”Wolf Demon King, follow me into the tower and eliminate the Hetero-Demon King inside.” Lin Langtian said.

”Yes!” The Wolf Demon King nodded without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian smiled. With a movement of their figures, the two transformed into streaks of light and headed straight for the black tower.

The instant their bodies touched the black tower, the power of the ancestral symbols emanated from Lin Langtian’s body. The black tower seemed to sense something, its body emitting slight fluctuations, and the two figures vanished.

Upon entering the Demon Suppression Tower, darkness immediately surged in like a tide.

Hum!

Crimson light suddenly radiated, dispelling the darkness. Lin Langtian raised his right hand, and at his slender fingertips, a crimson lamp coalesced.

Gazing at this darkness, a fierce glint flashed in the Wolf Demon King’s eyes beside him. He grinned savagely. ”Heh, all fellow clansmen—these tricks, aren’t they underestimating us?”

As his words fell, the Wolf Demon King opened his mouth wide and spat out. Demonic qi sprayed forth like a storm into the darkness. Immediately, shrill hissing sounds rang out.

As the demonic qi slowly dissipated, Lin Langtian swept his gaze over and saw countless dark giant serpents coiled within the darkness.

Evil demonic qi permeated their snake pupils, staring deathly at the two of them.

Lin Langtian took a slow step forward, crimson light flickering in his eyes. Suddenly, rumbling sounds erupted from within his body.

In the darkness, fireballs coalesced out of thin air. In the next instant, surging flames rained down madly. The entire dark world blazed into dazzling, violent brilliance.

Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly, then gazed into the depths of the darkness. ”No wonder the demonic qi is leaking. It seems this Demon Suppression Tower has already been compromised—the space inside the tower has been taken over by that Hetero-Demon King.

If I hadn’t discovered this in time, perhaps in a few years, the entire Kun Peng Clan would face disaster.”

With those words, Lin Langtian turned to the Wolf Demon King and ordered, ”Force that Hetero-Demon King out.”

”Yes!”

The Wolf Demon King gripped his large hand, and endless demonic qi gathered before him, actually forming a massive black cauldron.

The cauldron rang out, and a torrential black demonic sound surged forth from within. As the demonic sound swept through, it transformed into a massive demonic wolf. The savage wolf howl echoed through the dark space.

Swoosh!

The demonic wolf shot out, carrying overwhelming demonic qi as it charged into the darkness swirling with endless demonic qi. Finally, with a bang, it exploded.

”Wolf King, descend upon the world.”

A cold, savage voice emanated from the Wolf Demon King’s mouth. Lin Langtian’s eyes sharpened as he saw two vast strands of Hetero-Demon qi clashing against each other.

These two strands of Hetero-Demon qi naturally represented the Wolf Demon King and the local Hetero-Demon King.

However, since the Wolf Demon King was at full strength, after a brief stalemate, his Hetero-Demon qi gained the upper hand.

In the next moment, the Wolf Demon King waved his large hand, and the darkness receded at an astonishing speed.

Lin Langtian and the Wolf Demon King quickened their pace, pursuing the retreating darkness. After a while, their steps slowed to a halt, and the gaze Lin Langtian directed forward grew increasingly cold.

In the void ahead, Lin Langtian saw a seated black shadow.

”From your aura, you’re a newly advanced Hetero-Demon King? Why have you come here, and why is a human with you?”

In the void, the demonic shadow slowly raised its head. A pair of black pupils, extremely evil, stared out, as if endless savagery surged within them. Its sharp palm gripped the ground, its nails scraping deep marks into the tower’s surface as it moved.

The demonic shadow looked at the Wolf Demon King, a thick puzzlement appearing in its eyes. The combination of the Wolf Demon King and Lin Langtian was utterly baffling to it.

Especially when it fixed its gaze on Lin Langtian, its demonic pupils clearly contracted. ”Devouring Ancestral Symbol? Spatial Ancestral Symbol? Who are you? Truly capable—you’ve actually subdued two ancestral symbols...”

As its words fell, the demonic shadow’s eyes narrowed slightly. Ancestral symbol bearers and a King-rank Hetero-Demon from the Hetero-Demon race—these were supposed to be irreconcilable foes. Yet now, they had arrived together in the Demon Suppression Tower that imprisoned it.

This was truly a wonder of the world...
