Chapter 648 - Category Three King-tier
He would be above billions of people, with control over a thousand kingdoms in the Ten Thousand Kingdom Territory. It was tempting, but Zhao Danchen was more interested in the Ancient Graveyard because that was his chance to become stronger!
“I will go to the Ancient Graveyard too, but we only have one Ancient Token ... We shall fight and see who is superior! I will get the Myriad Earth Essence and the Ancient Token!”
Zhao Danchen left after he spat those words. Zhao Wuji made no gesture to stop him.
It wasn’t until Zhao Danchen was gone that Zhao Wuji clenched his fists.
“You think a useless exile like you can stand up to me?” Zhao Wuji looked out of the window.
“The Ancient Tolen is mine for sure. The Ten Divine Empires and the Nine Great Clans. Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Demon, and Divine. Each great clan is powerful on its own. It seems that without adequate luck, I will die at the Ancient Graveyard ...”
Time slowly passed. There was no news of the Martial Alliance moving out, nor was there any news of the appearance of the Ancient Token. Long Chen was worried.
The Dragon clan had thought that the Martial Alliance would attack them immediately after the humiliating display at the Ancient Demon Domain. But to their bewilderment, the Martial Alliance had done nothing. Even though most of the people in the Martial Alliance were cursing the Dragon clan, the Martial Overlord had made no movements.
That caused everyone else to think that the Martial Alliance was wary of Long Chen and Zhao Wuji had become a coward. Even though it was an insult to Zhao Wuji, he completely ignored them and continued to cultivate.
Long Yue and the others weren’t sure what was happening. They thought the Martial Alliance was going to attack them immediately.
There was nothing they could do but put up their guard and increase their strength as soon as possible. The ones who were injured were focused on recovering while the rest were focused on increasing their strength.
Long Chen had mastered both the Soul Dispersing Dragon Claw and the Wind God Kick. His next task was to cultivate the third stage of the Earthly Martial Fist. Two months later, Long Chen felt like he was nearing the Third Earthly Martial Stage under the guidance of Long Yue and Long Shan.
Long Chen had progressed through the Four Basic Realms incredibly quickly, but when it came to the Three Martial Realms, he needed to comprehend the meaning of “martial arts” himself. Long Chen had no choice but to cultivate slowly as he figured out his own path.
Progressing through the Earthly Martial Realm emphasized studying the earth itself. Earthly Qi was an infinite energy source for Earthly Martial Realm cultivators. Sensing, comprehending, and using it in battle was the core of the Earthly Martial Realm.
The Martial Soul was the key in controlling essence.
A cultivator’s initial consciousness couldn’t handle essence.
Long Chen’s Martial Soul slowly improved as he cultivated the Earthly Martial Fist.
But he did not tell anyone that he was close to breaking through the bottleneck and advancing into the Third Earthly Martial Stage.
Once I reach the Third Earthly Martial Stage, I will have the strength to fight equally against Zhao Wuji, Long Shan, and the Ancient Demon Corpse. Both Long Shan and Zhao Wuji are aiming for the Ancient Token and the Five Emperor Seals. Long Shan is an ally, so I can put him aside for now, but I will have trouble fighting against Zhao Wuji and the Ancient Demon Corpse if I don’t become a Third Earthly Martial Stage cultivator.
Long Chen paused his cultivation in the middle of the mountain range.
Nothing but mountains surrounded him.
This was the mountain range behind the forest where the Battle clan resided. There was nothing but shriveled-up trees here and the ground was poor in nutrients. It reminded Long Chen of the Nine Spirit Purgatory.
He looked around and took a deep breath. Ever since Ling Xi left, his behavior had changed a lot. He used to be arrogant, but now he was more mellow and silent. But only those close to him knew that Long Chen kept his bloodlust hidden deep inside his heart.
Becoming more silent had made him even more dangerous. A silent venomous snake was deadlier than one that announced its presence.
In a sense, he had grown and matured.
He started to grasp a lot of things on his own after Ling Xi had left.
Only through struggling could he change his fate.
Long Chen had never once taken a step back.
Time to go back. I wonder if there’s any news on the Ancient Token ... Long Chen started to climb down the mountain.
Halfway down, he sensed something and became excited.
Mo Xiaolang had woken up from inside the Primordial Realm. He had devoured the massive beast fire resembling a wheel in the Nine Spirit Purgatory. The beast fire was more dangerous than the Blue Devil Flame, so it had greatly increased Xiaolang’s strength!
Mo Xiaolang was also one of Long Chen’s trump cards.
The Sun Devouring Wolf had two incredible talents. One, the incredible growth rate through consuming flames. Two, the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire, a flame that existed at the same time as the Ancestral Dragons. Mo Xiaolang was only capable of controlling a small portion of it, but those hit by the flames rarely survived.
When Xiaolang was only at the Category Nine Heaven-tier, the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire was powerful enough to kill the Void Sword Saint.
Long Chen quickly opened up the Primordial Realm. Black flames gushed out of his chest and rapidly expanded in the air. A black lotus composed of flames hung above him. It was larger than Xiaolang by at least a third! Based on its size, Long Chen knew that Xiaolang had grown stronger.
The Nine Devils Ancestral Fire shifted in front of Long Chen, and he soon saw Xiaolang’s body in the middle of it. The phenomena unfolding before him resembled the revival of a phoenix. Xiaolang’s body was now larger, and his Demonic Qi had increased a lot.
Xiaolang’s eyes were filled with black flames as he stared at Long Chen. The aura he was exuding made Long Chen become wary of him.
The Sun Devouring Wolf was originally a Category One Earth-tier beast. Long Chen could not imagine how strong Xiaolang would become as he improved.
The terrifying sensation didn’t last long. The massive body of the Sun Devouring Wolf rapidly shrank and became the familiar Mo Xiaolang. The black flames dissipated and Mo Xiaolang opened his eyes, revealing the black flames in them.
Whenever he assumed this form, he was weaker than demonic beasts at the same category. It was most likely due to his human soul.
Mo Xiaolang’s aura was far more powerful than that of the strongest demonic beast in the Cloud Dream Swamp, the Black Water Viper.
“Big Brother.” Xiaolang smiled and scratched the back of his head.
“How strong are you now?”
“King-tier ... Category Three!” Mo Xiaolang was humble and bashful.
Category Three King-tier. It was the same strength as the Black Water Viper. Except for the Divine Phoenix at the Immortal Sea, Mo Xiaolang was now the strongest demonic beast in the Divine Martial Empire.
A Category Three King-tier Xiaolang was more than enough to become Long Chen’s ace. Their coordination, the Blood Devouring Domain, and the Nine Devils Ancestral Fire were more than enough to kill anyone.
As sworn brothers, they didn’t have to talk much to show how they felt.
“Let’s go back,” Long Chen said with a smile.
As they climbed down the mountain, Long Chen explained what had happened after they escaped from the Nine Spirit Purgatory.
“The Five Emperor Seals are the key to obtaining the Emperor-tier martial technique. If we can get our hands on it, it will help us a lot. The Ancient Token is also the key for me to reach the Three Emperor Territory. I need to get both of them even if it costs me my life!” Long Chen clenched his teeth.
“Then I shall fight to the bitter end with you.” Mo Xiaolang was pumped too.
Long Chen would never mistreat Mo Xiaolang even if the latter did.
Mo Xiaolang lowered his head and whispered, “Big Brother, do you miss Sister Ling Xi?”
Long Chen was stunned. He never thought Xiaolang would talk about this with him. Mo Xiaolang smiled awkwardly. “I just asked out of curiosity. I don’t know what to talk about if you keep quiet.”
Long Chen laughed. “Of course I miss her. There’s nothing else I can say, but ...” Long Chen squinted at the horizon. “One day, we will reach the Three Emperor Territory. Once we are there, we will finally see what a true Dragon Warrior is!”
Mo Xiaolang nodded.
They soon reached the Battle clan, and Long Yue passed them an unfortunate piece of news. “Seventh Brother, something happened to the Huangfu family.”
