The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

After the humans told the demons about their demands, at first the demons were extremely angry that the humans were trying to take advantage of the situation. But as the condition of the demons were becoming worse, finally Alcusus agreed to this proposal.

Among the humans, five true gods were chosen to enter the spatial rift. Rein was obviously among them as his immense strength was very much needed if the humans wanted to have an upper hand in the negotiations.

Other than him, the current sect master of the Divine Scale Pavillion was also coming with him. He had managed to reach the true god realm and with his Steel Scale skills, his defense was extremely high. So in case if the demons decided to attack them, he would still have a very high chance of surviving those attacks.

Among the remaining three people, two were from the Dimensional God temple and the last person was from the royal family. These two had been enemies before but now that the future of their whole race was in trouble, they had put aside their previous enmity to join hands together against a common foe.

...

One particular two way node was chosen by the humans to enter the spatial rift. This was a small sized node and even in an unblocked state, it could not absorb much world's energy at all. So even if the negotiations failed, the demons would not be able to gain much from this unblocked node.

Upon setting foot in the spatial rift for the first time, everyone first noticed how much spiritual power was present here. This was just a random area in the spatial rift but still it was better than most sects cultivation areas. Even without the special circumstances of having their growth boosted.

The demons would still be able to improve at a high speed just based on the environment of the spatial rift.

After the density of spiritual power, the next thing that the humans noticed was that there was nothing present in the spatial rift. Yes absolutely nothing was here.

Normally an area with this much spiritual power should have a thriving vegetation and a paradise-like atmosphere. But forget about heavenly paradise, this place was not even infernal hell. At least hell had some things in it even if those things were painful or scary. But this spatial rift had nothing, absolutely nothing.

There was not even soil or sky present here. Everything was black and all the humans felt like they were just walking on the space itself. Other than the space, nothing else was present in the spatial rift. Actually even time here seemed to be slowing down.

Staying in this environment for a long time would not be good for a human's mental state. The demons were able to easily adjust to the environment of the spatial rift only because their mentality was just different from a human's.

If a human true god had managed to find this spatial rift before the demons, he would definitely have also made it his property. But he would never allow his sect to relocate here. Any normal disciple would go mad if they stayed in the spatial for a long time.

For occasional cultivation needs, this place was very good as a seclusion spot but as a spot to live once while life, this was not the ideal place.

Three demon gods including the demon sovereign were there to welcome the five human true gods. The condition of the demon gods did not look good so the effect of the blockade was clear. But even in this weakened state, the Demon Gods were still stronger than a regular human true god.

So even after seeing the weakened demon gods, none of the human true gods dropped their guards and waited silently for the demons to speak up.

The demons were definitely not happy about the humans stepping foot here but for the time, they could not do anything but to negotiate with their arch enemies. It was Alcusus who was the first to speak up in this situation and he asked for the humans to follow him.

From the area where the entrance was, Rein and his group were taken to an area present in an inner part of the spatial rift. There was a simple house-like structure present here and that would be the venue for today's discussions.

No regular houses could be made inside the spatial rift so this house was definitely very special. It was created by the demon gods by manipulating the spatial rules of this rift. There were very few structures like this present here and having the meeting here was showing generosity in the eyes of the demons.

But the humans did not care much about the location and the only thing that they liked about it was the fact that it was located not too far away from the node using which they had entered. So in a dangerous situation, they could try to also leave from that same location.

...

At the start of the meeting, Alcusus asked for a war prevention treaty. But obviously the humans rejected that as they would not be getting anything from that. Some of the demon god tried to act high handed by saying that now suiside attacking the humans was good enough benefit for them.

But he was not able to speak much before an attack from Rein landed on him and he immediately fainted as his life was just hanging by a thread. Obviously Rein had shown mercy or that attack would have been his end.

Rein then smiled in a gentle fashion and told Alcusus that he should thank Rein for stopping a mindless fool from saying stupid things. Currently Rein was stronger than Alcusus even without using skills because Alcusus had gotten weaker in this incident. So even though it was very humiliating, Alcusus was forced to thank Rein with a twitching smile.

Seeing that the humans were not easy to deal with, the negotiations finally started. Alcusus somehow wanted to buy more time for his race and the humans wanted to get part of this spatial rift.

Even though it looked like the demons were very suitable for the spatial rift with their mindset, humans would also be able to put this place to good use by using it as a special cultivation area. So if the humans could also get access to the spatial rift, then the demons would not be able to gain much advantage in the future.

Actually both the humans and the demons were thinking about the same thing. They had no intention of making peace with their enemy. The humans would try to wipe the demons out after getting familiar with the spatial rift and the demons would do the same after getting some of their powers back. So in this situation, the discussion between both of the enemy races continued.
