The gazes of the crowd all landed on the altar. The countless pieces of flesh and blood scattered around the altar seemed to have a life force, all occupying the center of the altar.

On the altar, suddenly, the flesh began to tremble. The strong flesh and blood gradually joined together, finally forming a pair of huge eyes. The pair of eyes radiated an intimidating light, giving off a feeling of dizziness.

"This is the treasure? Why do I feel that it's so strange?" A Demonic Cultivator had already started to retreat. He felt very strange, it was as if someone was directly looking into his soul, wanting to devour his soul.

The middle-aged demonic cultivator said in a deep voice at this moment, "Everyone, this place is the true core of this forbidden area. If anyone is able to obtain the power on this altar, it would not be a problem for them to increase their cultivation by an entire realm."

It was also the moment when the male demon shook his head and said, "If it wasn't for the fact that I don't have enough strength and intend to recruit some helpers, how could I be willing to share this benefit with others?"

"Anyone, who'll help me get the treasure will get a share."

Everyone was surprised for a moment before they felt deep veneration for him.

Ye Xiao did not know about this initially but just now, he had already found out about this male demon's true identity.

He was actually the Fourth Prince of the Blood Demon Sect!

"Since the Fourth Prince is so open, we will naturally do our best to assist you in getting the treasure!" A few Demonic Cultivators said sincerely. And then he went straight to the pair of the bloody eyeball.

Ye Xiao's finger moved and calmly used the Divine Sense to scan his entire surroundings. This Blood Corpse was truly too cunning. This was indeed his hiding place, but the Blood Core here was also fake.

The real Blood Core was hidden within the altar, not above.

At this moment, the pair of eyeballs suddenly exploded and turned into a lump of flesh and blood. This mass of flesh and blood gradually turned into a heart and began to beat depressingly.

"This... Could it be the heart that the Demon Master wants?"

"Don't tell me that the bone mountain where all the demons of our Blood Demon Sect and the South Demon Alliance have gone is fake? This is the real deal!"

All of the cultivators felt their hearts thumping. This was definitely an extremely fortuitous encounter.

"Everyone, we will act together and take down this heart!" The Fourth Prince shouted.

The crowd had been waiting impatiently for this answer. Upon hearing it, they immediately flew over. However, they did not notice that the Fourth Prince had not moved. Those Demonic Cultivators and demons flew up into the air above the pile of blood and flesh.

One of the Demonic Cultivators seemed to be specialized in a footwork technique, his speed was extremely fast. In just a flash, he had already taken off his heart with his hands."Whoosh!"

The moment he touched the heart, a mass of dark red fog gushed out of his heart and instantly poured into his body.

That Demonic Cultivator's entire body trembled and he immediately laughed out loud: "Haha! My cultivation level actually increased! Hahaha, what the Fourth Prince said earlier is true."

Just a simple touch was sufficient to raise his cultivation base.

The eyes of the surrounding people turned red. The other Demonic Cultivators and demons shouted: "Give that heart to me!"

"Don't even think about it!"

The group of Demonic Cultivators and demons immediately surrounded the heart, ready to snatch it. But just at that moment, the Demonic Cultivator, who was the first to get the heart in his hand, suddenly screamed.

The heart on his hands suddenly had countless blood threads, completely penetrating the Demonic Cultivator's body.

"Puff!" "Puff!" "Puff!"

The remaining Demonic Cultivators and demons were caught off guard. The protective barrier around their body was completely useless and was torn apart by the blood veins one by one.

"This is bad!" Some Demonic Cultivators turned around and tried to escape as soon as they saw that something was amiss. However, the heart seemed to have already found the right target, the moment Demonic Cultivator turned around, endless blood veins shot towards him.

After that, the Demonic Cultivator's body rapidly shrivelled at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Muffled sounds could be heard one after another. All the Demonic Cultivators and demons who were just standing there a moment ago had now turned into a pile of dried corpses.

Seeing that everyone was dead, the Fourth Prince's pupils shrank before returning to normal.

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry. I've already read about the origin of this heart from an ancient book. This heart was probably created after the death of a demon expert, and is able to devour their flesh and blood to nourish itself."

The middle-aged cultivator vowed, "Their deaths are equivalent to sacrifices. Now that we have made sacrifices, we can naturally obtain the power within."

The Fourth Prince laughed out loud and said, "Alright, once this Prince obtains his power, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"

The female demon beside the Fourth Prince was surprised and said, "Your Highness, don't tell me that we are not going to send this heart over to Demon Master?"

"What heart? The real heart is being fought over by the demons of our Blood Demon Sect and the South Demon Alliance. What does it have to do with us? We have never come across the heart." The Fourth Prince suddenly said in a strange manner.The female demon froze for a moment and suddenly understood.

That's right, it was better to let them fight over the fake heart. When that time came, no matter what happened, the Demon Master would not blame them. After all, no one will know that the real heart had fallen in the Fourth Prince's hands.

The middle-aged demonic cultivator suddenly said, "Your Highness, for the sake of safety, this old servant will first give it a try."

The Fourth Prince nodded and said, "Alright!"

The middle-aged demonic cultivator took a step forward, walking straight to the heart. His entire body suddenly released a burst of powerful demonic energy, which wrapped around his entire body.

Then the middle-aged demonic cultivator carefully held up his heart. Suddenly, a ray of black gas came out of his heart and entered his body.

The middle-aged demonic cultivator heaved a sigh of relief and two red coloured skull marks actually appeared on his forehead.

But in just an instant, the two skull marks on his forehead started to split apart automatically, forming three skull marks!

It was also the moment when the middle-aged demonic cultivator's cultivation base started to increase rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he had broken through an entire realm and become an Ancient Demon Realm demonic cultivator.

Such progress could be said to be incredibly fast.

The Fourth Prince's face instantly revealed a hint of joy when he saw such a scene. He said to the Middle-Aged Demonic Cultivator, "Quick, give that heart to me!"

Although the middle-aged demonic cultivator could not bear it and was reluctant to part with the heart, he endured his greed and obediently passed the heart over to the Fourth Prince.

Servants like them had special imprints on their bodies. If he disobeyed his master's orders, or his master died, the mark would immediately explode and completely destroy his life.

The moment the Fourth Prince received the heart, a ray of black energy suddenly shot out from the heart and entered the space between his eyebrows.

All of this, other than Ye Xiao, who was observing the entire situation with his Divine Sense, was not discovered by anyone.

"Hahaha! With such a treasure, I can fight for the title of the crown prince and become the next master of the Blood Demon Sect."

The Fourth Prince suddenly laughed out arrogantly. His aura and manner were completely different from his usual refined self.

When the female demon at the side saw all of this, she said in a delicate voice, "Your Highness, please let me try out this treasure once."

"Alright, since my beloved concubine likes it, then I'll give it to you!" The Fourth Prince passed the heart over.

The female demon was overjoyed as a hint of greed flashed across her eyes. She impatiently took over the heart, hoping to be like the others, able to rapidly raise her strength.

Unfortunately, even after waiting for a long time, she still did not gain the strength she wanted from the heart.

"Why?" Just as the female demon wanted to ask, she suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain. She couldn't help but cough and actually spat out a mouthful of green blood. She looked at the heart she held in her hand in disbelief.

From the center of his heart, lines of blood erupted and pierced into the female demon's body, devouring her completely. The female demon was instantly turned into a dried corpse.
