Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

"Even though there aren\'t many powerful old monsters going this time, just having the strength of the early Energy Foundation stage is quite ambitious."

The Legendary Mystic Realm is a lot less dangerous than the Mythic Mystic Realm. According to the unwritten rules, the Mystic Realm only allows disciples below the Mystic Core level to enter, to reduce competitiveness.

However, it\'s filled with powerful independent cultivators and prodigies from major sanctuaries and royal princes from dynasties.

Competing with these talented and powerful individuals is no easy feat.

Not to mention achieving all the inheritances under the combined pressure of these forces.

For some reason, even though it seemed like an unrealistic idea, Sylvia found herself inexplicably trusting Timothy.

"Date..."

Her cheeks flushed slightly as she read the word on the letter.

But as she read on, she saw something even more outrageous: "Sweetheart."

"Hmph, always so slick, even in writing!" Sylvia huffed, a bit petulantly tossing the letter aside.

But after sitting quietly for a while, looking left and right to make sure no one was around, she stealthily picked up the letter again and tucked it under her soft pillow.

\'It\'s not because I treasure this letter that\'s barely two sentences long, it\'s just... the pillow is too low, needs something to prop it up a bit.

Yes, that\'s right!\'

Sylvia\'s gaze drifted off into the distance, tinged with a trace of melancholy.

...

The three legendary Holy Emperors buried in the Valley of the Undead were Mystic Emperor Kael, Sage Empress Orielle, and Sky Emperor Aerion.

Being honored as Holy Emperors, all three had strengths above the mid-stage of Ocean\'s Gate and had once dominated their era.

Though dead, the protective formation of the Mystic Realm remained unbroken, only opening automatically today after a hundred years.

While the Sects of the world had their disputes, they mostly acted according to the rules.

This time, as the Valley of the Undead opened, several major righteous Sects joined forces to guard the entrance, preventing anyone above Mystic Core from entering to ensure fair competition within the Mystic Realm.

On this trip, Timothy brought over twenty disciples, none particularly strong, and after two days of travel, they arrived near the Valley of the Undead.

Among them was Felix.

Felix was bruised and battered, with several bloodstains on him, looking utterly miserable, yet he still followed Timothy with a goofy smile.

"How did you end up looking like this?" Timothy frowned slightly, remembering that although he had been harsh, it shouldn\'t have been to this extent.

"Well, it\'s a bit embarrassing," Felix scratched his head. "I went back and told my parents to hit me, but they didn\'t believe me at first."

"After a lot of effort explaining, they finally understood why."

"But then, they started hitting harder and just couldn\'t stop, almost beat me to death."

"Only when they finally stopped, my dad told me they\'d been holding back for so many years, and just couldn\'t help themselves this time, so..."

Timothy just said, "Wow."

This family, truly a model of filial piety.

As they talked, many Sects had already entered the Mystic Realm.

Seeing a large number of disciples pouring in, Timothy didn\'t dare delay any longer and led the disciples of Sky Sanctuary through the checkpoint into the Mystic Realm.

"So it\'s this terrain."

Completely different from the outside, the Mystic Realm had no sun, and the sky was a dark, crimson hue.

The ground was barren and rocky, devoid of any vegetation, as if it had been scorched by fierce fires long ago.

The mountains undulated, each peak seeming to contain molten magma.

Though devoid of plants, the continuous red peaks could still serve as some sort of cover.

As for the dim expanse ahead, it was unknown what it concealed.

As Timothy surveyed the scene with a hint of caution, he recalled the records he had read in ancient books and advised, "Although most guardians of the Legendary Mystic Realm don\'t kill intruders, it\'s still better to be careful."

The disciples nodded in agreement, and Timothy led them to a slightly elevated hillside to take cover.

Perhaps because he had read too many novels, Timothy always felt a bit resistant to this type of secret realm, especially those that restricted entry based on cultivation level.

More and more people poured into the secret realm, including some powerful Sects and a few odd ones that had never been seen before.

"Look, those are people from the Themyscira Sect!" suddenly, one of the disciples exclaimed.

Immediately, everyone\'s gaze shifted towards the distance, their eyes seemingly sparkling with excitement.

After all, the Themyscira Sect was renowned far and wide. Although their strength was just barely considered top-tier, the beauty of their female disciples was famous throughout the world.

Looking over, the female disciples of the Themyscira Sect were all stunningly beautiful, a feast for the eyes.

Especially when the female disciples talked and walked hand in hand, every smile and frown seemed to tickle the heartstrings of the onlookers.

"Ah, it\'s a pity that the female disciples of the Themyscira Sect have recently been influenced by \'The Uselessness of Spiritual Partners,\' and it seems more and more of them plan to stay single forever," Felix lamented to his companions.

"Exactly, it\'s such a waste! If the female disciples of the Themyscira Sect don\'t marry, it\'s a loss for the whole world!"

"Shh, keep it down, \'The Uselessness of Spiritual Partners\' was personally written by Goddess Sylvia."

"Even though the Goddess hasn\'t mentioned \'The Uselessness of Spiritual Partners\' since, it\'s still a result of her enlightenment."

"Why did the Goddess have to enlighten on that..." the group lamented, their faces filled with sorrow.

Originally, they had almost no chance of interacting with the female disciples of the Themyscira Sect, and now, there seemed to be no chance at all.

But soon, the conversation shifted to the leader of the Themyscira Sect\'s group.

"I\'ve seen the leader of their group before,she seems to be a personal disciple taken in by the head of the Themyscira Sect in recent years."

"It\'s said that she\'s extremely talented, advancing to the Energy Foundation stage in just a few years, and recently, she even entered the late stage of Energy Foundation."

"Late stage of Energy Foundation! She must be one of the strongest in this secret realm then."

"Plus, I heard that her appearance is actually concealed with a transformation technique, and her real looks are much more beautiful than what she shows."

Amidst the murmuring, Timothy couldn\'t help but cast his gaze towards the female disciples of the Themyscira Sect, especially the one leading the group, the personal disciple of the sect leader.

Timothy looked puzzled.

He had no recollection of her face, but for some reason, he felt a strangely familiar aura about her.

It was as if he had seen her somewhere before.
