Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

The words of the Maine Coon Cat made Bai Xue extremely angry. Her little paws slammed down hard on the Maine Coon Cat's foot, but without any deterrence to speak of, it was instead somewhat cute and endearing.

"Do you mean to tell me not to give up, that you still have a way?"

At these words, Bai Xue nodded happily and then looked towards the courtyard next to them.

The Maine Coon Cat fell silent, and after a long while, it slowly opened its mouth and said:

"That person has not appeared in this world for seven years, and no one knows his whereabouts.

The number one cultivator of Rongcheng's Fine Jade Grotto Heavens is looking for him, the Female Emperor of Great Xia Dynasty is looking for him, and even everyone in the Little Clarity Void Grotto Heavens is searching for him.

If he is still alive, he would certainly be able to protect you with ease.

I was too foolish back then, to have taken you away from his side, and by the time I came back to find him, I found that we already lost the method to return to the little grotto heavens.

Under the surveillance of the many monsters from the outside world, I couldn't even manage to send you to Mount Laojun or to the Imperial Capital for help, only to end up displaced to this place.

All these disasters... are because of me..."

Before the Maine Coon Cat could finish, Bai Xue jumped up on the spot, covering the Maine Coon Cat's mouth with her two front paws, nodding very seriously towards the Maine Coon Cat.

Seeing this, the Maine Coon Cat sighed. It knew that Bai Xue had never blamed it, but faced with such a situation, how could it not feel self-blame?

After jumping down from the Maine Coon Cat's head, Bai Xue stretched out her little paw and pushed the Dark Star Herb on the ground towards the Maine Coon Cat.

The Maine Coon Cat, upon seeing this, swallowed the Dark Star Herb with its enormous tongue.

"The medicinal effect of the Dark Star Herb can last for three days. During these three days, Your Highness, please stay here to avoid being discovered by those lesser demons..."

Mid-sentence, the Maine Coon Cat suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood.

"This herb is poisoned!"

Then, the huge body that had been concealed by ruins stood up once more, releasing a mighty pressure unreservedly in all directions, causing the earth to tremble as if mountains were awakening right there, its blood-red eyes staring into the profound depths of the night.

"Cloud Floating Monster Territory? The demons of Tong Mountain? Or is it the Qilian Demon King?"

In the darkness, chilling laughter suddenly rang out, a mixture of deep, shrill, and hoarse voices intertwining in the night sky.

"Worthy of a demon that has inherited the Mountain Sovereign's legacy, heavily wounded and having ingested the soul-severing poison, you still manage to exhibit such might."

"Had you been allowed to cultivate peacefully until now, you might indeed have had the chance to glimpse the realm of the Great Demon King."

"The heritage of the Demon Saint Bai Ze is indeed profound and extraordinary. A mere Maine Coon Cat actually resembles the Mountain Sovereign more than those of the Mountain Sovereign's own lineage."

"No matter, after swallowing you, I too can become the Mountain Sovereign."

The Maine Coon Cat's complexion turned ashen; it had already recognized the powerful members of the monster tribe appearing in the night sky.

Without exception, those monsters were all Demon Kings who held sway over vast territories, with the leader being an ancient tree demon, who was even a Return-to-Void Stage Ancient Banyan Demon King.

Even in its prime, facing so many Demon Kings and a Great Demon King's siege, the Maine Coon Cat's chances of survival were next to none.

Let alone now, when it was already heavily wounded, having also swallowed the soul-severing poison.

Even if these Demon Kings did not make a move, it would not survive the night.

"To resort to poisoning a dying demon, when did the mighty Great Demon King lose the courage to fight head-on?"

The Maine Coon Cat spat out another mouthful of fresh blood, its eyes flickering with rage, its inherited prestige from the Mountain Sovereign rising even further.

The Ancient Banyan Demon King showed no signs of guilt to the Maine Coon Cat's challenge, but instead smiled indifferently and said:

"I merely hold the legacy and knowledge of the Demon Saint Bai Ze in high regard.

After all, no one can be sure whether the Demon Saint might choose to use an even more precious heritage to mount a counterattack.

I naturally prefer a safe choice over taking risks."

The words of the Ancient Banyan Demon King had completely incited Bai Xue's anger, as threatening purrs emanated from her little throat.

Observing the harmless little kitten, the Ancient Banyan Demon King then bowed respectfully and said:

"Ancient Banyan pays respect to the Demon Saint Bai Ze; I boldly request the Demon Saint return to the Qilian Demon Realm to help our monster tribe regain control over Primal Chaos!"

Behind the Ancient Banyan Demon King, the many diverse Demon Kings also bowed in turn.

"Please return to the Demons' Realm, Demon Saint!"

"Please return to the Demons' Realm, Demon Saint!"

Upon hearing this, the Maine Coon Cat rebuked sharply:

"You should be clearer than any other monster tribe that the true incarnation of the Demon Saint Bai Ze is no longer in Great Xia. His Highness merely possesses the memories of the monster tribe's spiritual inheritance left by Bai Ze.

What monster tribe uprising, what regaining control of Primal Chaos, are nothing but pretexts for seizing the inheritance."

A fraction of the smile that had been on the face of the Ancient Banyan Demon King faded, and the look in his eyes gradually darkened.

"A monster tribe traitor dares to deceive the Demon Saint Bai Ze, such a crime must be punished!"

As these words fell, thick vines from the earth twined towards the Maine Coon Cat.

The Maine Coon Cat, with its feet planted on the ground, let out a roar of alarm, and behind it, a range of mountains manifested, shredding the numerous vines.

However, at this moment, the observing Demon Kings also made their moves one after another, manifesting their true Demon King forms to press down on the Maine Coon Cat.

With fierce claws and teeth, it fought desperately to shatter the true body of a Demon King. Then, heavenly fire descended, igniting its fur; the Maine Coon Cat at this moment resembled an enraged, fiery lion.

The Natural Divine Power, transformed into a massive star falling to the earth, shattered the phantom of the mountains, and the Mountain Sovereign's Status Grid crumbled loudly.

The many Demon Kings, like a pack of hunting wolves, each strike tearing at the Maine Coon Cat's true Demon King body, black blood gushing continuously, rotting flesh spreading over the entire body, revealing white bone.

The burning Spirit Soul continuously stimulated its inherent Divine Skills, trying to carve out a pathway amidst the encircling monsters.

However, there were simply too many Demon Kings present, far exceeding the limits the Maine Coon Cat could withstand.

Accompanying the piercing of its heart by a giant vine, the Maine Coon Cat finally lost the strength to resist, and its massive body crashed down with a boom.

The Mountain Sovereign's inheritance had already been shattered in the course of the battle, and the vast body reverted to the normal size of a Maine Coon Cat as it fell.

With tears in her eyes, Bai Xue rushed into the wreckage, running to the side of the Maine Coon Cat and rubbing her thin body against it, trying to awaken it from eternal slumber.

"Wuu wuu~!"

Bai Xue tried to say something, but only whimpers could be heard from her throat; in the end, she couldn't manage to speak, and only large tear drops kept falling.

The Ancient Banyan Demon King descended from the air, ignoring the corpse of the Maine Coon Cat, trying to grab the small cat that was as big as a palm from the ground.

But at this moment, the Ancient Banyan Demon King suddenly felt a chilling presence descend.

The Maine Coon Cat, whose physical body had withered and whose Spirit Soul had burnt out, was now unexpectedly showing signs of life again.

Life force regenerated, the Spirit Soul rekindled, and even the withered body started to recover.

Wounds healed, flesh revived, and even the rotten body was restored at this moment.

What emerged before the eyes of the Ancient Banyan Demon King was a miracle akin to time reversing.

"Impossible! Is this another Demon Saint inheritance?"

Although he was confident that even if the Maine Coon Cat came back to life, he could slay it again, such mysterious and unfathomable methods filled the Ancient Banyan Demon King with unprecedented fear.

He decisively reached out his palm, trying to capture the small cat that was within arm's reach.

The next moment, however, a fair hand landed first, gently lifting the small kitten from the ground.

"Didn't anyone tell you, not to touch other people's cats?"

The gentle words rang in the ears of the Ancient Banyan Demon King, and the stretched out withered palm seemed to experience endless time eroding in that instant, turning into ash.

A breeze blew by, and the ashen palm disintegrated into ashes with the wind.

"Impossible!"

However, it was not over; the ash began to spread swiftly from the palm toward the Ancient Banyan Demon King's body.

The Ancient Banyan Demon King, panicked, tried to use his Escape Skill to flee, but as existence ebbed away, it was all in vain.

The Return-to-Void Stage Great Demon King visibly turned to ash at a speed visible to the naked eye, and eventually completely dispersed in the wind.

Shen Yuan placed the palm-sized kitten into his arms, his right hand gently stroking the teary-eyed little cat, his voice soft:

"Don't worry, I have returned."
