Chapter 898: Evil Demon

Chapter 897: Evil Demon

According to Yao Yan, they had invited several people over, all of them possessing various sorts of lightning-attributed flames. Perhaps the matter was not as simple as she had said.

“Princess Yao Yan, what exactly this evil Demon is like? Can you tell me in more detail?”

What exactly was this evil Demon? To think that it feared only lightning-attributed flames such that even a Martial Emperor could do nothing to it, this piqued Xiao Chen’s interest.

After traveling through several transportation formations and traversing the Primal Chaos Domain, Xiao Chen casually asked about the evil Demon when they arrived at the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden.

Yao Yan was very fatigued, but because Xiao Chen accompanied her, she was still in a very good mood. However, fear flared in her eyes at his mention of the evil Demon.

She sighed as she answered, “This evil Demon has the external appearance of a human, but it does not have a physical body. It can swallow up the flesh of a cultivator to strengthen itself. Unlike any of the races of the Kunlun Realm, it uses energy that is replete with evil. In fact, it is different even from the Deep Abyss Demonic World’s Demon Races.

“Regular Martial Techniques have almost no effect on this evil Demon. Many of my race who could not react to it in time got swallowed up by this evil Demon.

“If not for lightning-attributed flames being able to threaten this evil Demon, it is hard to imagine what else in the world can suppress it.

“However, it will be fine this time. Several experts of the Kunlun Realm with lightning-attributed flames accepted our invitation. Furthermore, with the assistance of Young Master Xiao, we will definitely deal with this once and for all.”

Xiao Chen glanced at the empty Immortal Spirit Ring, regret filling his heart. If Ao Jiao were here, given her experience, she would have been a big help.

“Young Master Xiao, what’s wrong? We are about to arrive at the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden. We cannot fly anymore.”

Seeing that Xiao Chen appeared somewhat distracted, Princess Yao Yan reminded him. The storms in the sky of the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden were quite famous.

Xiao Chen recovered his wits and smiled apologetically. Then, he landed on the ground of the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden with the other two.

After crossing this Yellow Soil Demonic Garden, the group would arrive at the Chaotic Demonic Sea. However, this Yellow Soil Demonic Garden was rife with danger from all sorts of mutated plants and Demonic Beasts.

Among the flora were even some plants that gained spirituality and had some accomplishment in cultivation. Even with Xiao Chen’s current cultivation, he would not dare to say that he could travel fearlessly through this place as he pleased.

Princess Yao Yan placed the Thorn Sovereign Circlet on her head. The sharp thorns on the circlet pierced her forehead and drew blood. However, she did not seem to register any pain. Gentle energy flowed into her mind, filling her entire body with strength.

This dark forest with yellow ground had all sorts of strange and rare plants. As Xiao Chen followed behind the two, he kept his Spiritual Sense out at all times.

Princess Yao Yan dealt with the plants and Demonic Beasts that they ran into along the way. When she wore the Thorn Sovereign Circlet, she was even stronger than Xiao Chen in this Yellow Soil Demonic Garden.

The Thorn Sovereign Circlet was a mysterious Secret Treasure passed down from ancient times. It could control and absorb the energy of plants. In this demonic garden, even before many plants attacked, Princess Yao Yan would already be aware of the threat as long as they bore malicious intent.

The green circlet glowed faintly. When Princess Yao Yan wore it on her head, she emanated a sense of peace and tenderness that lent her an air of nobility.

Many of the plants would even take the initiative to make way, opening up a wide path, when they felt the energy of this circlet. This Thorn Sovereign Circlet was truly miraculous.

Just like this, the group traveled into the depths of the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden without encountering much danger. Then, Princess Yao Yan stopped before an ancient tree.

This ancient tree was not very tall nor did it have that many branches and leaves. However, it looked very lush and fresh.

Princess Yao Yan arrived before the tree, plucked a green leaf from the Thorn Sovereign Circlet, and gently held it out.

A tree branch moved like a hand and grabbed the leaf from the Thorn Sovereign Circlet.

A human face appeared on the tree trunk. The branch placed the green leaf into the mouth. Then, the tree said in a hoarse voice, “That’s right. This is indeed the leaf of the Thorn Sovereign Circlet. I will transport you in accordance with the agreement.”

Xiao Chen’s eyes lit up. This seemingly ordinary ancient tree was actually a spirit that cultivated.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Three tree branches flew over and wrapped themselves around the waists of Yao Yan and the two men. Vast and unstoppable energy came from the tree branches, causing the three to sink into the ground.

The scenery changed quickly; it felt like time passed rapidly. When the three of them finally stood on firm ground again, there was a vast sea in front of them; they had already left the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden far behind.

In one breath’s time, the three of them traveled through most of the Yellow Soil Demonic Garden. The strength of this ancient tree was truly unfathomable.

When Yao Yan looked at the sea, she heaved a sigh of relief. She took off the circlet from her head, and her glowing face immediately grew pale and dispirited, her eyes full of fatigue, unspeakably exhausted.

It looked like the energy expenditure of this Thorn Sovereign Circlet was not something that Princess Yao Yan could support. Otherwise, she would not have sought that ancient tree’s help to transport them.

“Princess, are you all right?!” Xiao Chen asked worriedly when he saw the situation. Is she in too much of a rush?

“It is not a problem. Now that I see the sea, everything is fine. Let’s go. The elders and the rest must have been waiting for us for a long time already.”

Yao Yan smiled faintly. Her long sky-blue hair fluttered in the sea breeze. She closed her eyes, enjoying the smell of the sea that came with the breeze. Then, she leaped gently and landed in the vast sea.

The instant Yao Yan’s legs touched the water, they turned into a fishtail. As she swam around in the sea, she looked like a whole new person. She waved her hands at Xiao Chen and said, “Young Master Xiao, let’s go!”

Electric light flashed under Xiao Chen’s feet. In the blink of an eye, he arrived beside Yao Yan. When he saw the mermaid before him, he was somewhat distracted.

Yao Yan flipped her fishtail and led Xiao Chen down into the water. She moved extremely fast like she was a spirit of the water. Xiao Chen, who was normally quite swift, actually had some difficulty keeping up with her.

After reaching a depth of five kilometers, the three could no longer see the sun; it was now pitch-black. The darkness affected Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Sense, limiting his vision to one kilometer around him.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a rainbow-colored bright light lit up the depths. Xiao Chen squinted and saw a huge surreal castle sprawling across the bottom of the sea. The barrier of light surrounded the castle.

The scene before him was very bright, sweeping away all the earlier darkness. There were corals swaying gently with the current, mermaids traveling back and forth. An underwater forest stood proud and tall, displaying many magnificent views of the seabed; words were insufficient to describe all this.

Yao Yan revealed a sincere expression of joy as she said, “This is the nation of our Merfolk Race. We still have some tribes in other places. In the future, when we have time, I will bring the White Robed King to take a look around.”

Xiao Chen was enchanted with this scenery, feeling many doubts. Although the Merfolk were famous for their ferocity on the continent, this aggressiveness was nowhere in sight here.

Seeing his doubts on his face, Yao Yan said gently, “Young Master Xiao, there is no need to be so surprised. Our Merfolk Race is very hospitable with our friends. However, when facing our enemy, even our most beautiful girls will pick up their swords to fight.” He was not the only outsider to harbor such doubts upon coming to the Merfolk Nation.

“Your Highness!”

A group of Merfolk warriors swam over, swishing their tails. They greeted Yao Yan in an orderly manner. Xiao Chen had met the person leading them before. It was Mu Yun, who had been with Yao Yan and Mu Lei in the pagoda in the Sage Mark Monument.

In the two years since then, Mu Yun’s strength had increased considerably. Xiao Chen took a cursory glance and found that his cultivation was already at peak Medial Grade Martial Sage.

Mu Yun saw Xiao Chen, and his face lit up with joy. He performed a cupped-fist salute and said, “The White Robed King really honors us by coming personally. We are truly honored.”

Originally, the Merfolk Race had just prepared to borrow Xiao Chen’s flame. They had not expected him to come himself, so they were actually really surprised.

When the Merfolk warriors heard Mu Yun call Xiao Chen the White Robed King, they all looked over and sized him up out of curiosity. They could not resist whispering among themselves, discussing Xiao Chen in soft voices.

This really cannot go on. Xiao Chen simply disliked the title White Robed King. He said, “My King title has not been decided upon yet. I hope that you will not continue to use the title White Robed King.”

Mu Yun smiled and said, “The White Robed King is being too humble. Although your King title is not fixed yet, Young Master Xiao is definitely worthy of the title ‘White Robed King.’”

When Yao Yan saw the unnatural expression on Xiao Chen’s face, she smiled faintly. Then, she changed the topic. “Let’s not mention this matter anymore. Mu Yun, are all the experts from the various places ready?”

Now that they were discussing official matters, Mu Yun’s expression turned grave. He said, “They have long been prepared. Now that Your Highness succeeded in inviting the White Robed King, our chances are definitely much better.”

Mu Yun led the three in passing through the barrier. Once they were out of the seawater, Yao Yan, Mu Lei, and Mu Yun naturally took human form again and flew in the air.

Yao Yan called someone to make arrangements for Xiao Chen’s accommodations. Then, they hurriedly took their leave of Xiao Chen.

“This is the place.”

A beautiful Merfolk Race girl led Xiao Chen to a magnificent courtyard. She said gently, “Young Master Xiao, please rest here tonight. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the Young Master together with the rest. I will be in the side hall. If you have any orders, you can call me at any time.”

Everything was pretty good in the courtyard. Xiao Chen nodded his head in satisfaction. He said, “You may take your leave first. Just come and get me tomorrow morning.”

“How can this do? You are an honored guest that the Princess personally received. I have to take proper care of you and cannot leave without permission.”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. “Since I am an honored guest, then naturally, what I say goes. It is just one night. What care would I need?”

After dismissing the maidservant, he was preparing to enter the courtyard to cultivate when two people suddenly landed outside the door and walked straight towards him.

Xiao Chen turned his head to take a look and was stunned. How can these two people be here?

The new arrivals were none other than the Muddy Sky Gate’s Qi Wuxue and the White Bone Sovereign’s descendant, Long Fei.

Xiao Chen was already surprised at seeing Qi Wuxue. But the sight of Long Fei shocked him. He had chopped Long Fei in half previously, yet in less than two months, Long Fei had actually recovered.

“White Robed King, how have you been recently? Are you very surprised at seeing us?

Qi Wuxue walked over with a big smile. Long Fei held a folding fan in his hand, retaining his scholarly, white-faced look. When he saw Xiao Chen, he did not evince any hatred on his face.

When Xiao Chen looked into Long Fei’s eyes, he detected an indistinct aura of ruin. After losing the Ruin Trident, Long Fei actually managed to comprehend the will of ruin with his own strength, which probably soared greatly as a result.

“Don’t be so shocked. Since you can come to this place, naturally, we can come as well. You are not the only one with a lightning-attributed flame. We were invited here as well. Of course, we were not as honored as you were. Princess Yao Yan even went to invite you personally.”
