Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 482: Chapter 482: Weakness is the Original Sin (Second Update)

The Fire Demon King, now reduced to what seemed like the flame of a candle, was granted amnesty and returned directly to the Flame Demon Realm through the spatial imprint engraved deep within his soul by the Fire Monarch.

Arriving had been a Herculean effort — compressing his strength and controlling his Divine Sense, for fear of being bound by the spatial laws.

But the return journey was much smoother.

The laws of space could not be bothered with such a tiny flame.

As a result, he returned to the Demon Realm with ease.

Within the Myriad Realms, the Demon Race is an incredibly vast and domineering tribe.

This is evident from the sheer number of worlds they possess.

The Demon Realm has one main realm, vast and boundless, ranking highly among the myriad continued.

At the same time, there are subsets like the Green Hills Fox Realm, the Serpent Demon Realm, etc., scattered within, much like a great tree where the main Demon Realm serves as the trunk and places like the Green Hills Fox Realm as its branches and leaves.

It should be mentioned here.

In the strictest sense, the Dragon Realm is also considered part of the Demon Realm.

However, due to the overwhelming strength of the Dragon Clan and their presence across the Multiverse, many view the Dragon Realm as a separate entity, not subordinate to the Demon Realm.

The Flame Demon Realm to which the Fire Demon King returned is one such insignificant world.

Although unimpressive, this Flame Demon Realm could also be described as expansive.

The environment, however, is far more hostile.

There are almost no plains; everywhere are volcanoes erupting or on the verge of eruption. The lava they spew flows and converges to form long rivers of magma.

The air is filled with the pungent odor of sulfur.

In such an environment, not to mention ordinary humans, even common cultivators would struggle to survive.

But for the Fire Demon tribe, this is a naturally gifted paradise.

No sooner had the Fire Demon King returned than he plunged eagerly into a volcano’s mouth, bathing and frolicking in the viscous magma.

“This feels so good!” the Fire Demon King moaned in ecstasy.

For him, soaking in lava was like bathing in hot springs, utterly soothing, and even the previously weak flames of his body began to grow stronger.

“That was really close today; I nearly died in that mortal world! And who exactly was that man?” the Fire Demon King pondered darkly.

Just then, a powerful suction force pulled him out of the magma. Before he could react, he transformed into a streak of light, soaring toward the sky.

A moment later.

The panicked Fire Demon King found himself in front of a vast palace built from Fire Crystals.

Sitting on the palace’s throne was a fire giant.

Seeing this giant, the Fire Demon King transformed from a flame to human form in trepidation and then knelt on the ground.

“Fire… Fire Monarch!”

His voice was weak and trembling.

A chorus of mocking laughter emanated from both sides of the palace.

“Tsk, tsk, isn’t this the Fiery Flame Demon King? How come you’re now barely larger than a torch?”

“And after returning to the realm of fire, instead of presenting yourself before our lord, you hid in that volcano—your heart deserves condemnation!”

These jeering voices all belonged to various Fire Demon Kings. They all transformed into human forms, watching with cold smiles as the Fiery Flame Demon King knelt on the ground.

At that moment, the Fire Monarch seated upon the throne spoke indifferently, “What happened? Why have you turned into this state?”

“Fire Monarch, I intended to preserve the Fire Seed before reporting to you! I descended into the Kunlun secret realm in the world of men, and everything was going smoothly. But suddenly, a man appeared, first killing the Xuan Bird, then leaving me in this state!” the Fiery Flame Demon King cried out for help.

Hearing its words, the Flame Demon Kings erupted into a bout of laughter.

The laughter was tinged with schadenfreude, but it was mostly filled with naked mockery and disdain.

“How laughable, the world has long become ruins, even the Kunlun secret realm has declined! How could anyone possibly reduce a Demon King to such a state?”

“Exactly, and this time its arrival was even facilitated by the Fire Monarch himself, who preserved almost all of its strength. Yet, it was still beaten until its Fire Seed nearly extinguished—a total waste!”

The mockery and insults made the Fiery Flame Demon King almost beside itself with rage.

But it didn’t dare to say anything because it was so weak that it could be extinguished with a single breath.

In the Demon Realm, weakness is the original sin.

“You’re saying someone beat you into this shape?” The Fire Monarch’s face, composed of flames, showed no emotion, just indifferently asked.

“Yes!”

“And how did he beat you? Tell me in detail!”

The Fiery Flame Demon King, trembling with fear, gave a rough account of what had happened.

However, when it mentioned that Xue An had used the Demon Realm Divine Flame, the entire Divine Temple was drowned in laughter.

“That’s truly hilarious, a mere mortal managing to master a Divine Flame that even the Fire Monarch doesn’t possess. Fiery, your imagination is quite rich!”

“Hehe, I bet it was just its own stupidity that led to the loss of its Cultivation Level!”

The flames on the Fire Monarch’s body suddenly flared up, “Silence!”

In an instant, the hall turned quiet.

Then the Fire Monarch spoke in an amused tone, “So, you’re saying that you encountered someone in the mortal world whose Cultivation Level is not inferior to mine, and that person beat you into this state?”

A few snickers sounded again in the hall.

The Fiery Flame Demon King, shakily said, “Reporting to the Fire Monarch, that is indeed the case!”

“Very well! In that case, I can’t really blame you, and you have also suffered a lot in the mortal world, resulting in the complete loss of your Cultivation Level.”

The Fiery Flame Demon King’s voice was choked with emotion, “The Fire Monarch is too kind, it’s all because of my incompetence.”

The Fire Monarch said indifferently, “Come here, I have a gift for you!”

These words made the Fiery Flame Demon King shudder, then it screamed out in terror, “Fire Monarch, although I have lost my Cultivation Level, my Fire Seed still remains. Just give me a hundred years, no, fifty years, and I promise I will be restored to my former state, then I can still serve you.”

The Fire Monarch cracked a mild smile, “I am giving you a gift, what are you afraid of? Come here!”

The hall was silent; the Demon Kings lined on either side watched with indifferent expressions.

The Fiery Flame Demon King didn’t dare to resist any longer, crawling a few steps on its knees, said with extreme sycophancy, “Fire Monarch, my domain has many Fiery Flame Crystal Stones, I will offer them all to you.”

No sooner had it finished speaking than the Fire Monarch extended a hand, a giant hand of flame then grasped the Fiery Flame Demon King.

“Fire Monarch, I beg you, don’t kill…”

The giant hand of flame suddenly clenched, and the Fiery Flame Demon King’s Fire Seed was completely crushed, then the Fire Monarch opened its mouth and swallowed it down.

“Offer to me? Hehe! If I eat you, what isn’t mine?” said the Fire Monarch, sneering.

The other Flame Demon Kings in the hall all showed faces of unconcern.

In the Demon Realm, at least in the Flame Demon Realm, such things were all too common.

After all, although the Fiery Flame Demon King had lost all its Cultivation Level, its Fire Seed remained, and after consuming it, the benefits to one’s own Cultivation Level would be immense.

The Fire Monarch closed its eyes.

He was ready to search through the Fiery Flame Demon King’s soul memories to see what exactly had happened.

But just as the Divine Sense touched these fragments, a weak yet incomparably potent Pure White Flame suddenly burst forth.
