Chapter 380: The Demon King’s Body

When the claws of the True Demon Empire threatened the Sacred Dynasty itself, they truly became anxious.

The twelve sects also sent the most elite forces, which included Sect Masters as well as Supreme Elders.

However, the True Demon Great Emperor and his nine Great Demon Kings were too terrifying.

Especially True Demon Great Emperor, this person had all kinds of martial arts, moreover, his demonic arrows swept away all obstacles. Nobody could compete with him.

Some people even compared him with the prime Human King.

In a short period of time, not only did the Sacred Dynasty fail to reclaim its lost land, but its land was also continuously encroached upon and was almost completely wiped out.

However, later, something very strange happened.

True Demon Great Emperor actually chose to commit suicide in his palace!

According to the rumors, before he committed suicide, he had seen a woman, a fairy-like woman who was wearing a veil and a white robe.

Who was this woman?

Why did True Demon Great Emperor commit suicide?

All had always been a mystery.

After the death of the True Demon Great Emperor, the Sacred Dynasty began to counterattack. Although the nine Great Demon Kings were powerful, they were ultimately no match for the Sage Lord.

As a result, the demon army was defeated one after another.

In the end, the Sacred Dynasty reclaimed all lost land. However, the damage was too heavy. Even the Sage Lord, who was the only one that could contend against the True Demon Great Emperor, also died because of overwork and the accumulation of injuries.

However, from beginning to end, the Sacred Dynasty never found the corpse of the True Demon Great Emperor, nor the nine Great Demon Kings were killed. They just defeated the ‘True Demon Empire’ that had flourished for a moment.

Since then, practically all sect disciples had to learn this segment of history just to be wary of possible disasters that might happen again.

Unfortunately, perhaps, it had already been too long, now, most young martial artists had already forgotten the terror of the True Demon Great Emperor.

That was evil in the true sense, and destruction in the true sense.

In the war between humans, there were at least some principles and bottom lines, but the True Demon Empire didn’t have any. The cities they occupied were slaughtered, looted and burned.

It was as if they regarded massacre as a type of game.

…………

Because of this, Wan Yanjun and others didn’t actually feel absolute terror upon seeing the statue of True Demon Great Emperor.

It had already been too long. The martial artists of the new generation had been living in a relatively peaceful era, and they had long since forgotten the reign of terror.

Some people even regarded the True Demon Empire and True Demon Great Emperor as their worship targets. Not only were they not afraid, but they might even be incomparably excited.

“Since there is the True Demon Great Emperor’s altar here, it is very likely that there are also treasures left behind by the True Demon Empire here. I guess we are truly lucky this time. As long as we killed that Demon General and Plague Demon King, everything here will be ours.”

Wan Yanjun wasn’t afraid, and he actually was somewhat excited in his heart.

Chen Zui and Shangguan Lei were also the same.

They had already forgotten the terror that the True Demon Empire had brought to mankind back then. However, they remembered the strength of the True Demon Empire.

Such a powerful empire, even if only one-tenth, no, one-hundredth of the treasures were left here, it would be enough for them to enjoy forever.

“Yes, let’s go and check the situation first!”

Chen Zui’s eyes were also filled with excitement and greed.

In their view, it was certain that Plague Demon King hadn’t recovered completely. Otherwise, even though the Human Race’s Sacred Dynasty had already declined to this state, why didn’t they re-establish the True Demon Empire and seek to dominate the world?

Although Sangguan Lei was a little worried, he also couldn’t restrain his inner desires.

Ling Xiao, in fact, was very different.

His blood had the imprint of adventure. After running into such a place, if he left without investigation, then he would definitely regret it later.

They quietly walked past those slaves. Those slaves just felt as if a gentle breeze had passed, which was nothing much.

There was no supervisor here, but the slaves worked very hard.

Their eyes were dull and filled with fear.

It could be estimated that they had experienced the terror of Plague Demon King, and they knew that they couldn’t goof off. Therefore, they were like this.

Ordinary people basically didn’t have any standing in this Profound Realm.

If other people wanted to treat them as slaves, they didn’t even have a chance to resist.

Ling Xiao clenched his fists, becoming even more determined to walk down his martial path.

Become stronger!

Become an invincible powerhouse!

Then, no one would dare to bully you, and no one would dare to harm your relatives and dear ones!

Ling Xiao walked along with those three people and quietly replaced himself with his Martial Soul Clone.

 Although he also unavoidably had greed and desires, he still valued his life more and wouldn’t lose his rationality because of greed.

Even if the Martial Soul Clone was destroyed, it could be reconstructed. However, if his true body was completely destroyed, there would be nothing.

Besides, his current Martial Soul Clone possessed almost 100% of his strength.

Naturally, this strength didn’t include the Landscape Martial Soul, Ancient Golden Dragon and other special combat powers.

It could only be calculated as a bit stronger according to Ling Xiao’s standard cultivation base.

His current cultivation base was Initial Rank Two Transcendent Realm, and the strength of this Martial Soul Clone was roughly Mid or Late Rank Two Transcendent Realm.

With such strength, Martial Soul Clone, in fact, could do a lot of things.

The most important thing was this Martial Soul Clone could use all his martial skills. It just couldn’t use the very special powers like Landscape Martial Soul and Ancient Golden Dragon. Therefore, it was not as powerful as the main body.

However, this Martial Soul Clone had a special trait that the main body didn’t have.

That was an imitation!

His Martial Soul Clone in itself was one of the abilities of the Landscape Martial Soul. It could completely imitate the opponent’s moves just by looking.

This also gave some extra combat power to the Martial Soul Clone. Therefore, it would be much stronger than ordinary Initial Rank Two Transcendent Realm martial artists.

Looking past the altar, there was a palace. A strong evil aura was coming from that palace.

Everyone could see that that was a blob of thick green liquid, which already had no outer form. However, that evil aura came from that thick green liquid.

“Master, you are wise. These people truly came.”

The Demon General was standing next to that blob of thick green liquid, looking very respectful.

Honestly speaking, when his Master, the Plague Demon King, told him that those fellows above would come down, he hadn’t believed it.

With the Plague Turn Bone Formation blocking their way, how could those people come down?

However, now, he had to admit that his Master was wise, divine and mighty.

Naturally, he was also surprised by Ling Xiao’s skill.

If his guess was correct, then these four people were able to come down mostly because of Ling Xiao.

“This is a trap!”

Upon hearing the exchange between the Demon General and Plague Demon King, Wan Yanjun, Chen Zui and Zhangguan Lei exclaimed.

They then turned around, preparing to run away.

Suddenly, a powerful and terrifying aura hit them.

This aura was stinking and disgusting. Moreover, it also had powerful soul pressure.

Wan Yanjun, Chen Zui and Shangguan Lei directly lied on the ground, and as if they were an insect, they didn’t dare to move.

They were dignified Rank Three Transcendent Realm powerhouses, but that terrifying soul pressure actually scared them to this state.
