My Fury Will Burn The Heavens Chapter 142 - Demon Emperor

Chapter 142: Demon Emperor

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The Mt. Black Clouds was a rather famous place within the region around the Spirit Beast City. It was mainly because the Mt. Spirit Beast College's turf was just north of the Mt. Black Clouds. There was a patrol team that patrolled the area, and no one dared to trespa.s.s it. The Mt. Black Clouds was well-known as a good demonic-beast hunting spot, naturally making it famous.

The south side of the Mt. Black Clouds was considered the inner area of the Mt. Thirty Thousand. The Mt. Thirty Thousand was a ma.s.sive camp for the demonic beasts, and there were plenty of tier-two and tier-three demonic beasts residing inside of it. There might be chances of encountering the tier-four demonic king as well. There were rumors that in the deepest part of Mt. Thirty Thousand, there was a demonic emperor who had a human form. It possessed overwhelming demonic strength, and a single move from it could level a huge city. Even those absolute martial experts didn't dare to enter recklessly.

"Is there really a human-form demonic emperor in the deepest part of Mt. Thirty Thousand? How can a demonic beast turn into a human? Isn't this the stories from a myth?"

Jiang Yi heard of such rumors in the past. He was now sprinting along and asking questions to Qian w.a.n.guan and Zhan Wushuang. These two were young masters from Great Clans and were widely knowledgeable. It was natural that they knew of some secrets.

"Not sure!"

Qian w.a.n.guan didn't speak while Zhan Wushuang shook his head and explained: "There is no demonic emperor in the deeper parts of this mountain. I think that only the top ten combatants of this continent will know the truth. But it is certain that demonic emperors do exist and can really change into human form. My clan has records of an appearance of the demonic emperor 5000 years ago in the southern Dream Sea Abyss, and it was a sea dragon.

"At that time, the Heaven Mystics Kingdom had this Vajra Realm martial expert who was cultivating a formidable martial skill. The expert was afraid that he might accidentally injure the commoners; hence, he went to the Dream Sea Abyss to cultivate. He ultimately incurred the wrath of the demonic emperor and instantly eradicated the Vajra Realm expert in a single move. It was a rather huge commotion, and Qian w.a.n.guan's clan should have a record, too."

Qian w.a.n.guan nodded and looked around. The members of the Qian Clan promptly stopped their footsteps because the three of them were a distance away from them. Qian w.a.n.guan then said, "Brother Wushuang is correct. My clan does have a record. What's more, my clan has records that there is another demonic emperor hidden in the Wide Chill Ice Plains. But… I do not know whether it is real or fake as there isn't any evidence."

"Wide Chill Ice Plains?"

There was a flash of light in Zhan Wushuang's eyes that came along with a surprised expression. Jiang Yi confusingly asked, "Where is the Wide Chill Ice Plains? How come I never heard of it before?"

"North!"

Zhan Wushuang pointed to the north and replied, "It is north of the Northern Liang Kingdom and the Northern Mang Kingdom. It is a bitterly cold place and also a forbidden area! There are mutated beasts underneath the ice plains that kill while staying invisible. Anyone under the Soul Travel Realm would die upon entry."

"Huh…"

Jiang Yi lamented. This continent was much bigger and much dangerous that he had expected!

He didn't have much knowledge about the continent except that it was nominally governed by the Azure Dragon Empire, along with the six va.s.sal states. In the north, there were the Northern Liang Kingdom and the Northern Mang Kingdom. In the south, there were the Great Xia Kingdom and the Heaven Mystics Kingdom. There was the Divine Martial Kingdom in the east and the Saint Spirit Kingdom in the west. Each of the va.s.sal states had well-trained and powerful armies; they had plenty of martial experts, too. They were just paying lip service to the decree of the Azure Dragon Empire. Had it not been for a few old veterans keeping watch of the Dynasty and that all va.s.sal states could govern themselves, this Azure Dragon Empire might probably be overthrown.

As they were casually speaking, they soon arrived at the foot of the Mt. Black Clouds. They didn't see any patrolling teams over here, but they weren't nervous. Because among the bountiful demonic beasts in the Mt. Black Clouds, there was seldom any tier-three demonic beasts.

"Ascend!"

The red pearl in Jiang Yi's hand had a flash, and a red dagger appeared. He took the lead and ascending the mountain. Qian w.a.n.guan and Zhan Wushuang's eyes immediately lit up.

Qian w.a.n.guan chased after Jiang Yi and whispered, "Boss, you shouldn't casually reveal your artifact. This item is much too precious. If a Soul Travel Realm expert is to see it, they will definitely try to s.n.a.t.c.h it."

Zhan Wushuang nodded. "Yes. Jiang Yi, you better be careful. There are less than 100 spatial artifacts in the entire continent. If it isn't for the fact that I know you, I will definitely seize it."

"En!"

Jiang Yi nodded. This usage method of this Fire Spirit Pearl was only found out after researching it in the Mt. Spirit Beast College. It was rather weird when he thought about it. The Fire Spirit Rock within the spatial area was extremely hot, but it didn't incinerate any items that Jiang Yi stored within it. But when he thought about the mysterious power that the Fire Spirit Pearl could transfer that helped him to withstand the high heat from the Fire Spirit Rock, Jiang Yi wasn't all that doubtful anymore. It should be the special properties from this pearl.

"Howl!"

Not long after they ascended the mountain, the howling of the wolves could be heard. Jiang Yi's eyes brightened up as he was about to go hunt. Qian w.a.n.guan stopped him and said, "Boss, don't be in a hurry. What good is there to hunt just one demonic beast?"

"Not hunting?"

Jiang Yi looked at Qian w.a.n.guan with doubtful eyes and asked, "Demonic beasts seldom form groups, right? Why shouldn't we kill a single demonic beast?"

"Hehe. Boss, you just follow me. I will find a good place and provide you a group of demonic beasts for you to have a slaughter!"

Qian w.a.n.guan giggled mysteriously as he gestured to his subordinates with a wave. "Go find a place."

The members of the Qian Clan that came along were all at the Purple Mansion Realm. Their strength wasn't very high; the highest among them was only at the sixth stage of the Purple Mansion Realm while the rest were around the third or fourth stage. They quickly scattered under Qian w.a.n.guan's instructions while the confused Jiang Yi could only follow the two of them.

"Howl-Howl!""Chi-Chi!"

Along the way, they would encounter one or two demonic beasts, but Qian w.a.n.guan would stop Jiang Yi from slaying them. After one whole hour, one of the Qian clansmen reported back swiftly: "Young Clan Head. We found a great place that would definitely allow Young Master Yi to bring out his strength!"

"Good, let's go!"

Qian w.a.n.guan was immediately excited while he followed this clansman ahead. Jiang Yi gave a confused look at Zhan Wushuang while the latter smiled, "Let's go. Fatty Qian has many bizarre ideas. It will not go wrong to listen to him."

The two of them sprinted along with Qian w.a.n.guan at high speed. Qian w.a.n.guan might have a low cultivation stage—at only the fifth or sixth stage of Cast Tripod Realm, but he seemed to have mastered a profound movement skill. His fat body was moving very quickly, and the speed was actually on par with a martial artist who was at the eighth or ninth stage of Cast Tripod Realm.

They swiftly pa.s.sed through a patch of forest and arrived at a s.p.a.cious plain. There were precipitous stone peaks in the distance that was a few thousand feet high. The Qian clansman led them straight towards the stone peaks.

The stone peaks were ma.s.sive, and there were dozens of the Qian clansmen at the bottom of the stone peaks. The martial artist that was the strongest was climbing the stone peaks. He arrived at a slab of rock which was at mid-waist of the stone peaks. He threw down a few ropes from his baggage, and the Qian clansmen began to climb the rope.

"Qian w.a.n.guan, what are you men doing?"

Jiang Yi watched as the Qian clansmen climbed up the rope and actually took out artifacts to excavate a stone cave on the stone peaks. He then asked with even more doubt, thinking if this fatty was going to dig a stone cave and reside here.

"Hehe. Boss! Don't be in a hurry. Take a rest first. With so many people digging the cave, it will soon be ready! This cave is going to be the base of our operations. It is better to make it more comfortable."

Qian w.a.n.guan remained mysterious as he replied. Zhan Wushuang looked at the stone cave and scanned the surrounding terrains. He seemed to understand something as he smiled and nodded "Jiang Yi, just wait. Qian w.a.n.guan's idea is quite good. It is safe and saves a lot of trouble. If we met an unbeatable foe, we can easily escape back to the stone cave and allow our secret guards to eradicate them! But… w.a.n.guan, do you have enough perfume?"

"Hehe!" Qian w.a.n.guan gave a wretched laugh. "As long as it is Boss' matters, I have to put in some efforts, right? Don't worry, that isn't a problem."

Jiang Yi was puzzled. Fortunately, the members of the Qian Clan were rather efficient at the mid-waist of the stone peaks. He had no choice but to wait patiently.
