Chapter 555 - Two Demon Saint
In the past, Long Chen would’ve thought that this place was heaven to him since there were so many demonic beasts. But now he knew that progressing through the Three Martial Realm not only required an increase in his essence, but also an increase in his comprehension. The blood essence of demonic beasts could help him reach the peak of every stage quickly, but it was not the key to making him become stronger.
Long Yue turned around when she heard them talking. “The King-tier demonic beasts hate humans. Their lair is at the depths of the Cloud Dream Swamp. If we respress on their territory, they will definitely retaliate. If the Red Emperor’s Seal appears there, we will have some trouble on our hands.”
“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.”
“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 ...
