1596 Three Metal Cabin Pods!
“Those two madmen! Quick, stop them!” General Dresden bellowed in a voice of despair.
Unfortunately for them, a special ability like Speed was not something that anyone could just change at will. When Xia Fan decided to go on a mad assault into the hall, there was no one who could stop him. Meanwhile, Traveling Buddha was like a human cannon, and Xia Fan enjoyed using Traveling Buddha like a cannonball, tossing him around with great force!
*Kaboom!*
With a loud explosion, Xia Fan broke down the final metal doors with Traveling Buddha’s help. They dashed into the passageway of unknown depths and ended up in the final room.
!!
General Dresden brought all his men along as he gave chase glumly.
There were countless White Bone Regiment undead soldiers on both sides of the passageway, which gave the old general quite a fright. If he inspected them closely, he noticed that over 99% of them had been eliminated by Xia Fan!
That was even though Traveling Buddha looked like an invincible god that had descended to the mortal realm with his body enshrouded in gold, and his voice mirrored the ferocity of a savage beast. However, while their enemies’ attention was all drawn toward the shiny Traveling Buddha, the real killer of the duo would be hiding in the shadows like a ghost, targeting the throats of everyone around with the sharp daggers he held in his hands!
While Traveling Buddha hollered wildly, enemies would find themselves being reaped like a field of maize, falling en masse. Before any could even make a sound, blood splattered in the air as a hurricane of blood formed.
This was the might of the perfect partners, Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha. The loudest was not always the one killing; it was actually just a cover. The one doing the killing was actually shuttling through the shadows, protected by that glaring golden light!
It was simply too incredible. Xia Fan was like Traveling Buddha’s shadow, hiding in the darkness of his bright light, issuing a deadly lesson to all!
In an extremely short period of time, the lower level of the Demon Palace had been completely cleared out. The two young monsters had unleashed a crazy and crushing offensive that had destroyed everything in an instant! It was utter annihilation!
Dongfang He and Jia Yuntian exchanged looks with each other, extreme shock in their eyes. Though they had witnessed Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha fight before, the two had fought independently in that encounter by the valley, and they had not truly demonstrated such powerful teamwork.
Now, when dealing with enemies that were so far beneath them, they were no different from powerful lawnmowers, capable of explosively demolishing an entire army, despite just being the two of them, as deadly as a torrent of steel! Everything that was in their path was wrecked!
‘They are truly very powerful!’, Dongfang He thought to himself.
…..
“Are there no enemies left? This feels like when you’re playing a game, ready to deal a massive blow, only for an ending cutscene to appear, and the screen displays that you’ve already cleared the game,” Traveling Buddha stroked his chin as he griped.
“I’m afraid it’s not that simple.” Xia Fan looked around and sniffed the air, fully absorbing the smells in the room.
In the middle was a structure that seemed like an altar. Above said altar was a huge egg-shaped metal cabin pods, and at the base of the altar were another two metal cabin pods on both sides, as if they were guarding the altar.
On top of that, this huge room also held an extremely ridiculously large safe. It had a nearly two-meter thick alloy door, with a genetically coded lock and a huge rotating locking device that ordinary people could not possibly twist.
Xia Fan had no idea what had been placed inside that safe, but at the moment it was open, and there was nothing inside. His Scent ability told him that some sort of wood had been inside, or some sort of fruit seeds, as there was a faint fruity aroma hanging in the air.
“Strange. To only place a single piece of wood in such a large safe?” Xia Fan muttered under his breath.
He walked to the metal cabin pod to the left of the altar. “The son of Flame Soul must have come out from here.”
With that said, he lifted open the metal cabin pod there and saw some viscous liquid on the smooth cabin pod walls inside. It was similar to the amniotic fluid that would be discharged when giving birth, translucent and giving off a foul smell.
Traveling Buddha opened the cabin pod on the right and frowned. “It’s the same here. It couldn’t possibly be a sibling of the son of Flame Soul, right?”
Xia Fan went over and gave it a whiff. “There’s still some minute differences. This cabin pod also has the smell of rust! I reckon it must be the smell caused by a newborn Demonic Dragon. Just like how when humans first give birth to a child, the smell is very similar.”
Several seconds later, they opened the final cabin pod above the altar.
“There’s the smell of a human inside this one,” Xia Fan declared.
“Human? Why would there be a human in the Demon Palace?” Traveling Buddha asked.
Xia Fan shrugged, “How would I know? I am just as clueless of them as you are in regards to Demons. But when we were attending class, when Tulan showed the ancient map, the Demon King seemed to appear in a human form. It seems only when they erupt with their full might would they transform into a behemoth with devastating power. Perhaps this cabin pod was host to a Demon King.”
A Demon King?!

Traveling Buddha could feel a chill run down his spine and feel himself get nervous. Xia Fan patted him on his shoulder. “If a Demon King was here, I would have long carried you and charged right for them. Don’t worry. These cabin pods have been abandoned for a long time. It has been at least two years.”
“I see…” Traveling Buddha nodded. “Then just where is the energy signature that they detected coming from?”
“From under the altar!”
With that said, Xia Fan simply lifted up the biggest metal cabin pod. Below it was just darkness, with several connecting metal tubes. Beneath the tubes was a very special fusion generator, acting as a reactor.
“For some unknown reason, the reactor has come online again. Touch the metal cabin pod. Do you feel a slight vibration coming from it?”
“Yes, slightly!” Traveling Buddha affirmed.
“These three cabin pods might very well be in the process of being started up. Just like how you preheat an oven when cooking lamb chops, so as to ensure the roasted lamb chops you’re making will be evenly heated and delicious,” Xia Fan said.
Traveling Buddha waved his hand dismissively. “Talking about roasting lamb chops in such an accursed place, you’re making me lose my appetite, despite being someone who loves eating lamb chops! The only thing I’m thinking of cooking here in the Demon Palace is the Demonic Dragon or a Demon King. Everything else would surely be disgusting!”
“What’s disgusting?!”
By that time, General Dresden and his men had finally made their way there. Though they were all high-ranking warriors, they did not have an easy time chasing after Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha in such a hurry, and all of them could feel their hearts beating wildly.
By the time they had caught up to the pair, all they found was Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha discussing cooking something. None of them could make sense of what they were even saying.
“Oh, what we mean to say is that indeed there was something that had slumbered here in the past, but they have long since departed. From the smells, I’ve determined that the time they left was about the same time as the Flame Soul. That is to say, the three creatures that came out from the metal cabin pods have awakened and they departed from the place together,” Xia Fan explained.
“Waking up and leaving together? Then why has the son of Flame Soul been the only one that appeared? What happened to the other two?”
“I’m not sure,” Xia Fan shook his head.
Actually, Xia Fan was lying. He knew very clearly well what had happened to them!
Cid Raleigh had told Xia Fan that the son of Flame Soul had come charging toward the valley like he had gone crazy, all because he had been tempted by Xia Fan. Xia Fan had just awakened the Beast King Orders. The true strength it possessed was that it allowed humans to coerce beasts that were at the King rank. Wild beasts who came across a warrior that possessed the Beast King Orderswould be like seeing a king of their own race, shivering as they lay prostrate at their feet.
Nevertheless, there was a downside to the Beast King Orders, and that was when they encountered any other Beast Kings, they would treat you as an immense threat and do everything in their power to kill you!
That was why on that day, the son of Flame Soul immediately flew into a rage when he sensed Xia Fan’s presence!
“To think there’s another person at the same rank of me hanging out here. How can I let this stand?!”
It was just as the saying went: a mountain cannot be shared between two tigers! Beasts would often be the most ferocious toward their own kind, and were the most of the countless human deaths caused by the Demon race? That might not be! If tallied up in total, it was still humans themselves that enjoyed killing other humans, and the number of people killed by the demons was nowhere near that of humans killing their own!
This was why the son of Flame Soul was extra angry when he had to treat Xia Fan as the same rank. He recklessly charged toward him, while the other demons were at a higher level, and were even more intelligent. Either way, they must have figured out that Xia Fan was a fake Demonic Dragon, and did not bother to make a move.
That was the truth behind the battle in the valley. Xia Fan knew that very well, but there was no reason for him to explain that to others, so all he did was pretend to be dumb.
Speaking of which, there was also something strange that had happened this day. In the time they had spent since entering the Demon Palace, Cid Raleigh had not appeared once. Xia Fan called out his name mentally, but he drew no response. It was like the old dragon had died in his sleep or something.
Ordinarily, he would be talking Xia Fan’s ear off like an old scholar, introducing him to the various unique points to be found in the Demon Palace. After all, this would have been the perfect opportunity for him to brag about and display the breadth of his knowledge!.
“So that’s how it is. The energy signatures we’ve detected are coming from the revival cabin pods that the Demon King used being warmed up…” General Dresden muttered to himself, his brow furrowed after hearing Xia Fan’s explanation. “These are revival cabin pods that have already been used, so why are they suddenly warming up again?”
That was when Dongfang He impatiently implored, “General, now that we’ve already learned that this Demon Palace has long been abandoned, it doesn’t matter whether it was the Demon King or a Demonic Dragon that left this palace. Should we not go save Nikai first? We can talk about everything else at another time!”
General Dresden looked up and saw the many anxious and twisted faces of his troops. After all, they were talking about the Goddess of Subduing Demon City! There were plenty who cared about Nikai. Even if they did not have the chance to pursue her, none of them wanted anything unfortunate to befall their goddess!.
“Okay, let’s leave two men to continue investigations. The rest shall follow me,” Dresden ordered.
“Who’s going to stay?” Dongfang He’s anxious heart skipped a bit. He had no desire to stay behind.
General Dresden briefly scanned his men, and Xia Fan suddenly had a foreboding feeling.
“Nikai is someone from the Demonslayer Clans, so of course we should be the ones saving her. Xia Fan, Traveling Buddha, the two of you shall stay. Continue to search the place and see if there’s any secret mechanism or passageway to discover. On top of that, look into why the reactor suddenly started up by itself,” Dresden ordered.
‘Sure enough, people who are not of the Demonslayer Clan will be mistreated,’ Xia Fan noted to himself.
‘What the heck! We’re left with all the hard work while you people will run off to save the lass, acting as heroes,’ Traveling Buddha cursed them in indignant silence.
