Chapter 555 - Two Demon Saint

“I don’t think so. We will not be the only cultivators there—the people from the Martial Alliance will definitely show up. There are also the people from the Ancient Demon Domain and the Huangfu family. I doubt that the beasts will do anything when faced with so many people,” Jiang Wuya explained.

“We should still be careful. We should not become the vanguard at a time like this,” Long Yue warned.

They continued trudging forward. A lot of people were entering the swamp, and Long Yue chose the path with the least amount of traffic. When they got close, Long Chen had a feeling that the place was even more dangerous than the Ancient Demon Domain. A vile stench assaulted them; it was a mix of rotting corpses and mud.

Lan Ling’er quickly flew up a meter to avoid the mud. She didn’t want to even touch it.

“The muddy terrain will impede our combat abilities. Long Chen, you’ve just reached the Ninth Passage Stage. Have you tried flying?” Long Yue sounded serious when she asked him.

Long Chen had tried before. He already had access to his Heaven Meridian. While they were moving towards the Cloud Dream Swamp, Lan Ling’er had taught him how to fly. Still, he could only float half a meter high as a beginner.

“I can stabilize my body in the air, but I still can’t fight midair.” Long Chen smiled bitterly.

Long Yue nodded. “Usually, those at the Ninth Passage Stage can only do so much. Still, when you reach the Earthly Martial Realm, you will have to fight on land even though you will be familiar with flying. The basis of the Earth Martial Realm lies in the earth. You need to feel and comprehend the pulse of the earth. Even though you can fly, you cannot escape being on the ground.”

“Doesn’t that mean flying is useless?”

Long Yue shook her head. “No. Once you reach the Heavenly Martial Realm, most of your battles will be done in the air. To be honest, I don\'t even know the specifics of it. But since the strength of those at the Earthly Martial Realm comes from the earth, then the strength of those at the Heavenly Martial Realm should come from the skies. Only a few of them exist in the Ten Thousand Nations Territory.”

Jiang Wuya sighed. “Even though the Divine Martial Empire is one of the Ten Great Empires, we were always the weakest among all of them. The other Empires look down on us because our strongest fighter, the Martial Overlord, is only at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage. He’s not even qualified to fetch the shoes of the strongest cultivators in the other Empires.”

Long Yue nodded. “The news of the Five Emperor Seal has been contained by the Martial Alliance so that the other Empires don’t find out about it, or the Divine Martial Empire would be bathed in blood. I hope that the Emperor-tier technique, the Five Emperor Seal, allows an extremely strong cultivator to arise in the Divine Martial Empire.”

Long Chen listened to them silently.

He had a rough understanding of the Ten Great Empires now.

The Divine Martial Empire is the weakest of the ten, but I think that the people here are already strong. Thankfully, I didn’t go to the other empires, or I would be dead by now.

Long Yue then continued, “Anyway, you should learn how to fly better. There’s a very strong technique in the Huangfu family called the Willow Step. It’s an intermediate King-tier technique that allows one to dodge in the air like a falling willow leaf. It allows the user to evade attacks mid-air.”

A King-tier martial technique, and an intermediate one too.

It was one of the highest-tiered techniques in the Divine Martial Empire.

There were probably no advanced King-tier techniques in the Divine Martial Empire.

It was clear that the Emperor-tier Five Emperor Seal was an incredibly rare technique here.

As they spoke, they made their way into the swamp. Even though there were tens of thousands of people gathering here, the place was massive. If they needed to hide, they could take one of the more hidden routes to shake off pursuers.

The seven of them walked carefully through the gray miasma.

There were many dangers hidden in the swamp, so Long Chen’s Soul Swallowing Gaze played a big role. It could detect any souls in the swamp, including incredibly small ones. None escaped his eyes.

After walking for more than ten Li, they noticed that more and more Poison Beasts and Poison Insects were around them. They didn’t know how long they had been here, but they saw that the mud beneath them was bubbling nonstop. Long Chen used Sight and saw that there were numerous crocodiles underneath the mud. There were thousands of them!

They were not normal crocodiles, but ones at the Heaven-tier. They were around Category Three to Five, and each of them was more than five meters long. Their bodies were black and robust with sharp spikes covering their tails. Their strong jaws were filled with dagger-like teeth.

“Demon Crocodiles,” Lan Ling’er warned Long Chen.

As if sensing the presence of humans, the massive crocodiles poked their heads out of the swamp and revealed their teeth, making the place look like a land filled with swords.

“Who wants to open up a path for us?”

The Demon Crocodiles did not understand how strong they were, so they would attack if no one scared them away.

“Let me do it.” Lei Zhen laughed and walked to the front. Lightning formed on his fist and he punched the swamp in front of him. The lightning shot out and took the shape of a fist before crashing into the swamp. The lightning traveled through the swamp and quickly spread to cover a wide area. Most of the Demon Crocodiles cried out in pain before dying. Using the lightning, Lei Zhen killed more than half of the Demon Crocodiles.

Lei Zhen is very strong too. He might be stronger than Jian Chen if he uses the Heavenly Mantra Thunder Beast.

Thanks to that single attack from Lei Zhen, the Demon Crocodiles were scared and immediately plunged back into the depths of the swamp. While they were fierce and would attack humans, they were smart enough to know when they were outclassed.

Long Chen used Sight and saw that the Demon Crocodiles were swimming back into the depths as fast as they could.

They were about to leave when Long Yue suddenly turned around. Long Chen turned around and used Sight. Four people were closing in on them from just one Li away. In the blink of an eye, they appeared in front of Long Chen.

They were from the Ancient Demon Domain, and the person at the front was Jiang Wuxie. The person on his side was Jiang Wushang. There were two more white-haired old men following them. One was taller than the other, and both wore the outfit of the grand elders, but their strength was unmeasurable.

“To think the two of them are still alive. They probably ran here the moment they heard that the Red Emperor Seal was showing up,” Lan Ling’er complained beside Long Chen.

“How strong are they?”

“They are the trump cards of the Ancient Demon Domain. Those two are at the Second Earthly Martial Stage. They are also the two Demon Saints of the Ancient Demon Domain. To think they are still alive. We never ran into them when we entered the Ancient Demon Domain, so they were probably in isolated training.”

Second Earthly Martial Stage.

They were as strong as Jiang Wuya.

The Ancient Demon Domain was actually very strong. If Jiang Wuya were still in the Ancient Demon Domain, they would actually have three Demon Saints.

There were four of them, while Long Chen’s party had seven people. They stood there and looked at each other before Jiang Wuxie smiled coldly.

“We were wondering who it was when he detected movements here. So it’s the Dragon clan.”

“I thought the Demon Emperor already had the Black Emperor Seal. Are you here for the Red Emperor Seal too? You greedy bastard,” Long Yue said.

“I don’t have it, but, Long Yue, I know you have the Azure Emperor Seal in your hands.” The Demon Emperor’s eyes kindled with a dangerous light.

“Your information is wrong.” Long Yue did not flinch at all.

The Azure Emperor Seal is in Long Yue’s hands?

Long Chen thought that this was possible. They traveled everywhere to find the Five Emperor Seals, so they had to have at least one of them.

If that was the case, adding in the Red Emperor Seal, three out of the five seals had appeared. But no one would have thought that the Black Emperor Seal was in Long Chen’s hands. Jiang Wuxie had been feeling very frustrated because everyone thought he had the Black Emperor Seal.

Jiang Wuxie did not press the matter since Long Yue denied having the Azure Emperor Seal. He looked at Jiang Wuya before staring at the youth at the back of the group.

“Long Chen.”

Long Chen’s name has been spread far and wide. The death of the Void Sword Saint was related to Long Chen, but many did not believe it since they had not witnessed it with their own eyes. How could someone at the Ninth Passage Stage kill someone at the Second Earthly Martial Stage?

Killing someone at the Four Basic Realms was one thing, but killing someone at the Three Martial Realms was another ...
