Chapter 1548 - Chapter 1548 Chapter 34 Escalation of the Situation_2

Chapter 1548: Chapter 34: Escalation of the Situation_2 Chapter 1548: Chapter 34: Escalation of the Situation_2 Pushing the doors of the Star Palace open, An Jingtian came face to face with the Qionghua Four Emperors, and then proceeded toward the depths of the Qiong Hua Star Palace, pausing in front of the dojo engraved with the Giant Jade Tree totem.

“An Jingtian seeks an audience with the Star Lord!”

The dojo opened a passage, and An Jingtian, with his usual demeanor, stepped inside and met the unconcerned Qionghua Star Lord.

“Didn’t I say that the duties of the Dutian Heavenly King’s patrol are to be wholly decided by you without needing to report to me all the time?”

“Only the Star Lord truly rules over the Dutian Heavenly King’s patrol. How could Jingtian presume to overstep his bounds? It is still necessary to inform your lordship of related matters.”

“You, you are just too cautious.”

Faced with such a straightforward confidant, An Yushu had no choice but to shake his head and say, “Well, what’s the matter this time?”

An Jingtian spoke in a grave voice, “Today, Jingtian led troops to capture a demoness from the Demon King Mansion and discovered that the Evil Qi she was using had the same origin as that used by the Linchuan Eight Demons!”

“Is that so?”

An Yushu pressed on, “Are you certain you weren’t mistaken?”

“Without a doubt.”

An Jingtian asserted, “In this world, there has never been Evil Qi that fears not divine thunder formations. Not even the Blood River Divine Sword wielded by the former Devil Lord Gou Chen could achieve such a degree. However, the evil ghosts and living corpses that Po Ya controlled, once infused with Blood Fiend, became impervious to demon-exorcising magic and could withstand the might of the Nine Heavens’ Thunder, providing ample evidence to support Jingtian’s conclusion!”

Hearing his confidant’s definitive answer, An Yushu involuntarily furrowed his brows.

What were previously two events of secondary importance had suddenly merged into one, making the level of danger increase beyond measure.

“Well done. Nine Heavenly Demons that rival grandmasters and can be reborn continuously are beyond the current martial capability of the Dutian Heavenly King’s patrol to resolve. It seems I shall have to take action personally this time!”

…

Linchuan Borderlands

The “Blood God Sovereign” wore a grim expression, while the other seven Heavenly Demons knelt on the ground, terrified.

Although they already knew that the human race had begun to ascend, the Blood God was not without concerns. If it were like the old days, immediately upon his return to the Blood God World, he would have sent out the Twelve Blood Rakshasas to wreak havoc far and wide. Why would he limit his actions to just the small Lin Chuan Plain?

Not only was he restrained in his actions, but he even resorted to stratagems, having Po Ya from the Twelve Blood Rakshasas infiltrate the Human Race to secretly gather information about the Demon King Mansion.

However, to his surprise, in just a short time, Po Ya was killed in a surround and suppress attack.

While shocked at the ruthlessness of the Human Race, the Blood God also began to harbor apprehensions about the strength of the Human Race.

After all, many things are conceptually unknown until faced directly.

In the eyes of this Blood God Sovereign, renowned throughout Xiehe, the Human Race were weak, beings at the bottom of the food chain.

Even after hearing Tang Luo’s narrative, he still lacked a tangible understanding.

But with the assault on Lin Chuan Plain and the matter of Po Ya, he truly felt the momentum, the great tide.

In that era, the power possessed by the Twelve Blood Rakshasas was nearly at the pinnacle, invincible except for the Demon King himself.

With their consummate Evil Qi with no weaknesses, given enough time, even Demon Kings of certain races with imperfect innate gifts would be powerless against them.

Yet in just a few months, the nine Blood Rakshasas he sent out had all been killed, leading him to doubt whether, having been imprisoned for so long, he had lost the ability to objectively assess the strength of the Xiehe Human Race.

Take, for instance, the young man before him; eight Heavenly Demons attacked, but to no avail. Had there only been one or two, perhaps he would have been devoured whole.

Could it be that the Human Race had grown this powerful?

The sullen and doubtful expression of Emperor Chadi was all too clear, allowing Tang Luo to immediately discern the Blood God’s thoughts. Smiling, he said, “The strength of the few Heavenly Demons is indeed commendable, and it’s top-notch on the scale of the entire Human Race. However, such top-notch ability, in the face of vast numbers, amounts to little.”

“Uh? Are there many in the Xiehe Human Race who can compare to the Blood Rakshasas?”

Without delving into how Tang Luo knew his thoughts, “Emperor Chadi” asked, “Are there two hundred of them?”

“Two hundred?”

Tang Luo laughed, “Blood God Lord truly underestimates the current strength of the Human Race. Not to mention the whole of Xiehe, even the sparsely populated Longzhou has more than two hundred grandmasters.”

“So many!?”

“Chadi” was shocked and somewhat disbelieving, “Impossible, the Human Race has only emerged for so many years, how can they possess such formidable strength? I don’t believe it.”

“Whether Blood God Lord believes it or not, this has already become a fact.”

Tang Luo shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, just as he was about to continue speaking, he sensed a number of rapidly approaching sounds and whispered to the “Chadi” in front of him, “This is not a place to talk, let’s change the location for a detailed chat.”

“Are you wary of those approaching insects?”

“Blood God Sovereign” said carefreely, “Go and exterminate all the insects approaching this place. No living thing shall be seen on the Lin Chuan Plain!”

Seven Heavenly Demons, who had been kneeling in mid-air, heard the True God’s command and, without any hesitation, swept away in all directions.

Although they had not recovered from the blood depletion caused by using forbidden arts, killing some Human Race insects posed no difficulty for them.

“Hold on!”

Tang Luo wanted to stop these Blood Rakshasas as they dashed off in all directions, but the creations of the Blood Sea that spoke would not listen to others, let alone commands that were utterly contrary to those of the True God.

Seeing the seven Heavenly Demons who didn’t even pause, Tang Luo hurriedly said to the Blood God Sovereign in front of him, “Please, Blood God Lord, call them all back.”

“Why bother with these creatures.”

Blood God Sovereign frowned slightly and said indifferently, “Continue with what we were talking about.”

In the eyes of this ancient Demon King, human life was not something of importance. Just as wolves eat sheep, it was unrelated to right or wrong. He could slaughter any creature in all the worlds because he stood at the very apex of predators throughout the myriad realms!

Knowing it was hard to persuade the Blood God Sovereign to revoke the command, Tang Luo glanced at Chadi and then said indifferently, “Then, I must offend you!”

With those words, the Void Grandmaster transformed into Black Light and rapidly dashed straight towards the back of the farthest flying Heavenly Demon.

A prepared mind against an unguarded one, coupled with the fact that the Blood Rakshasa was now blood-depleted and had much weaker defenses, a single sneak attack was enough to blast a Heavenly Demon into a mist of blood.

As the Heavenly Demon disintegrated into mist, a True Spirit leaped out, as swift as a startled swan.

Without a second thought, Tang Luo instinctively brought out the Yin-Yang Grinding, capturing the True Spirit.

However, to his surprise, instead of being controlled, the captured True Spirit carried on with a tremendous force, continuing to surge forward.

Tang Luo, visibly shocked, immediately activated his Undying Body, but even augmented by the Divine Array, his power paled in comparison to the momentum of the True Spirit.

The Yin-Yang Grinding’s suction force on soul and spirit was rarely matched in the world, yet the power Tang Luo was currently opposing was ten times stronger than that of the Yin-Yang Grinding.

It was like two forces tearing at each other; any ordinary True Spirit would have been crushed by now, but the one caught within the Grinding remained unharmed.

It wasn’t that Tang Luo was holding back, but the Innate Yin-Yang Grinding Mill simply could not move this True Spirit. It felt as if a millstone had been loaded with an iron ingot, rendering his attempts to push the Innate Mill fruitless.

Even more perplexing was that the longer the True Spirit was trapped, the stronger the surging force became.

At this moment, Tang Luo, with both his Void Spiritual Body and Undying Battle Body fully activated, had enormous strength that could shatter mountains and split the earth with his every move. Yet, in this confrontation, he seemed small and helpless, as his massive Void Spiritual Body staggered forward, even showing signs of collapsing.

Feeling the frustration of arm-wrestling within the same world, Tang Luo had to release the restriction and slightly opened the black and white grinding plates, and the surging power abruptly vanished.

The trapped True Spirit immediately gained freedom and vanished in an instant, so quickly that even Tang Luo could only see a faint trail.

“So the True Spirit’s destination is beneath Lin Chuan?”

Mulling over this in his mind, Tang Luo suppressed his curiosity, unraveled the Undying Battle Body Divine Array, and dashed towards the other Heavenly Demons.

As the variegated Black Light flashed in succession, the Heavenly Demons ravaging Lin Chuan were successively blasted into blood mist, and this scene was coincidentally witnessed by Wind Media, who had rushed nearby.

Slap, slap!

The young Wind Media slapped his own ears hard, utterly unable to believe the scene before his eyes.

The first Demon Emperor Chadi, who had terrorized Longzhou, causing both Wuji Mansion and Master Liu of the Liu Clan to be extremely wary, had been… shattered by the Void Grandmaster!
