All the demons came close to the demon king's skeleton and surrounded him after Austin left.
They were all very thrilled that they were reunited with one of their great kings.
"Your majesty! Your majesty!" a demon lord cried out in excitement.
All of the demons were waiting for the demon king to reply.
However, the skeleton stayed still. It seemed that the demon king had disappeared again.
"What happened? Hasn't His Majesty come back to life? The skeleton had demonic spiritual soul just then, didn't it?" a demon lord asked, confused.
"Is His Majesty okay? What if he was injured in the fight with that devious human?" another demon said worriedly.
They felt bitterly disappointed at the prospect of losing the demon king again.
"How is that possible? His Majesty is so powerful! Such a weak human would never be able to hurt him!" another demon chimed in.
He couldn't accept the fact that one of their great demon kings might have been defeated by a human being.
"Clack, clack, clack!"
Just then, the skeleton began to move. The thick, dark demonic energy circulated it eerily.
Even though Austin failed to destroy the skeleton of the demon king during their fight, quite a few bones had cracked and some of them even had been smashed.
A few moments later, the skeleton finally stopped moving.
"Hum! I can't believe that damn human dared to smash my bones! I'll kill him!"
The demon king's voice was so powerful that everyone present instantly felt the horrific and depressing aura that arose from him.
The whole skeleton had completely turned black and was shining with a dark brilliance.
"What are you all waiting for? Give me your blood!" the demon king shouted.
He had waited for this moment for so long.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Every demon began to approach the skeleton. They slashed their wrists and dripped their purple blood onto the demon king's bones.
It was a particular ceremony of the demon race for bringing someone back to life.
As the skeleton absorbed more and more purple blood, its body began to grow back gradually.
Its fresh, energy meridian, veins, skin and even its hair began to grow back slowly but surely.
It was only an hour later that the demon king was finally revived, standing five meters tall.
All the demons put down their hands, stepped back and looked at their demon king with respect.
Stretching his body, the demon king beamed with satisfaction.
"You all have done a great job today!" he said.
"I will give you a sumptuous reward when we return," he added.
He was very glad to finally come back to life.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," they shouted.
Then they all proceeded to kneel down in front of their king, bowing their heads.
As there were ranks in the demon race, the demon lords and generals were very low in front of the demon king.
"It seems that the gate to this Prime Martial World has finally been opened by our powerful demons again!" the demon king said.
"Humph! A few hundred years ago, our race came to the Prime Martial World and fought with the human race. It was a terrible disgrace that we lost," he continued.
"It's also a disgrace that I have been trapped here for so many years! One day, mark my words, I'm going to get my revenge!" he raged.
His red eyes seemed to be blazing with fire while he spoke.
His gaze was emanating pure hate and anger.
"But the most important thing now is to find out the human who battled me just then," he said after a few moments.
"I can't believe that he has a spiritual tree in his Soul Sea. It's very rare! I must get the spiritual tree from him at any and all costs!" he swore determinedly.
He was so eager to get a spiritual tree to become stronger.
"Go and get me that human!" he shouted at the demons.
