Chapter 794: Infernal Valley

Proofreader: Papatonks

Sss~

In a pitch-black space, a golden flame raged. It grew and grew, taking the shape of a mile long dragon, shedding some light to this dark place.

Roar!

A draconic roar came from the golden fire and it looked below at the tiny humans, only two of them.

One stood there with utmost respect and a slight bow, Ye Lin. The other was an icy corpse, covered in gaping wounds from head to toe.  

Looking at the corpse, the dragon rumbled, “Is he the one you spoke of?” 

“Yes, master. I have brought him.” Ye Lin bowed.

Squinting, the fire dragon sized him up, “You sure were vicious. I only asked you to bring him and use the Dragon Breath Pill if necessary to warn him, not to show up here with him beaten so bad there’s not a breath in him. Is it revenge for last time? But if he’s the one you told me, why did he get hurt so easily? And you’re completely unharmed, unlike last time being carried here from the Double Dragon Gathering.”

“Master, am I so petty?”

Ye Lin sighed, “I fought in the Double Dragon Gathering with my name as a sacred beast inheritor on the line. A loss is a loss, why be so narrowminded about it? Moreover, since I already lost once, I wouldn’t have the heart to fight him again.”

The huge draconic eye shook, waiting for his explanation.

Ye Lin bowed, “Master, when I rushed over, he was already  surrounded by the Universal Righteous Sect’s hundreds of people. I have used the Dragon Breath Pill master gave me to get rid of them then brought this half dead body here.”

“I see, he’s been attacked.”

The fire dragon looked down and became astounded, “Just who on earth is his master? He has too many inheritances! Many of them belonged to astounding figures, no less renowned than myself.”

Ye Lin nodded, “Yes, master, when I fought him, I also felt his inheritance was complex, not just from one person. But even against his chaotic and incomplete powers, I still lost. I have shamed master.”

“No, if you were to lose to anyone else, that’s when you would’ve shamed me. But losing to him is justified.” The fire dragon’s face was solemn. 

Startled, Ye Lin wondered… 

[Why is the always competitive master suddenly soft? He actually admitted his disciple is weaker than another?]

The fire dragon said, “Ye Lin, you must’ve heard me telling you about the ten ancient Sovereigns and us five great sacred beasts, with many other strong beings in the Sacred Domain.” 

(StarReader: the ten ancient emperors are actually in a stage far above the one the Demonic Emperor was in, despite having the same title. Now I changed it to reflect that.)

Nodding, Ye Lin blinked, waiting for him to continue.

“Now I’ll share with you the source of his inheritance.”

The draconic claw whistled in the air and pointed at Zhuo Fan’s right arm. “This arm comes from Soaring Qilin, a part of a real sacred beast that was born from the primal chaos. It’s on an entire different level from you who has been transformed to be in between man and beast. If he had known how to use it, one fist would’ve been able to render you heavily wounded. At most, only three punches could you take on.”

Sss~

Ye Lin gasped in shock, staring hard at that arm.

He thought Zhuo Fan and he were the same, sacred beast inheritors, their bodies transformed by sacred beasts. But now he realized that he had a real sacred beast part on him. There was just no comparison.

Ye Lin sighed, feeling down.

“However, how could a sacred beast simply give their body to humans? When the rejection happened, it would’ve taken his life. Can it be then that Nine Serenities’ research was a success?”

Ignoring his disciple’s glum look, the fire dragon frowned, “That settles it, he’s Nine Serenities’ successor. Only that old freak could resort to such twisted and outrageous methods.”

Ye Lin cried out, “The third strongest of the ten ancient Sovereigns, Nine Serenities Sovereign?”

“Yes, I noticed the peculiarity of his Yuan Qi in his Dantian and found it to be a blend of thousands of things. I once heard that Nine Serenities comprehended a skill that can vie with Heavenly Sovereign’s Void Eye, compatible with any kind of constitution. Now that I see it, the cultivation method has indeed been passed down.”

The fire dragon nodded, “It’s because of this that his body can hold so many different powers without clashing. Especially the power of us, five great sacred beasts. Vaulting Kunpeng’s Chaos Flame merged with the spirit, Soaring Qilin’s almighty flesh, Thunder Phoenix’s Berserk Purple Lightning flooding his veins, all lay quiet. If it were anyone else, these three alone would’ve ended him if they clashed.”

[What?]

Ye Lin was shocked, “You’re telling me he has three great sacred beast powers?”

He also sensed it while fighting Zhuo Fan, but hearing his master confirm it was still a shock.

One would already be immensely prideful for having one, yet this guy up and had three of them! 

[What kind of a lucky bastard was he anyway?]

He would rather believe Zhuo Fan was just a sacred beast inheritor, with the other two coming from who knew where but had to be given back. The other option was simply insane!

“Humph, three sacred beast powers? You still have no idea.”

The fire dragon mocked, moving a sharp claw to peel the eyelid off Zhuo Fan’s right golden eye. “Ye Lin, see here? Remember it, the Divine Eye of the Void of the strongest in Sacred Domain, Heavenly Sovereign. He is also the one us sacred beasts could never defeat.”

Eye twitching, Ye Lin was overwhelmed, “H-Heavenly Sovereign’s successor?”

“Precisely!”

Flaring his snout, the fire dragon’s eyes flashed with hatred, “But for him to have Heavenly Sovereign’s skill, it must be that he’s unrelated to him, instead getting the treasure Qilin stole. Humph, Heavenly Sovereign would be so pissed to know his precious skill got leaked, ha-ha-ha…”

The fire dragon cackled, imagining the look of anger on Heavenly Sovereign’s face. Ye Lin cried, “Three great sacred beasts, two Sovereigns? That’s five peak inheritance! Who the hell is he?”

“It doesn’t matter, for in the end he’s a really lucky winner.”

The fire dragon raised an eyebrow, “Also, Ye Lin, I have something to tell you but don’t be jealous. He doesn’t have just five, but one more.”

The fire dragon pointed at Zhuo Fan’s belly.

Whoosh~

A light flashed and Blood Infant turned into a demonic sword, under the immense heat of the flame and the fire dragon’s might.

The demonic sword shook, then returned back to Zhuo Fan’s body.

Ye Lin was stumped, “Master, is that… a sword?”

“No, a spirit.”

The fire dragon said, “There was a rumor about Patriarch Blood Demon I told you about. He was only in the Saint Stage yet refined a Blood Infant that none in the Sovereign Stage dared to mess with. But after he died, his skill was lost. I never thought I’d meet it here, added to a sacred weapon to become a sword spirit.”

“Ha-ha-ha, the power Blood Infant has when reaching Saint Stage while using a sacred weapon will be unthinkable. I bet it can easily dispatch average Sovereigns.”

The fire dragon laughed, his eyes pensive.

Ye Lin looked at Zhuo Fan with a complicated look, “Six peak inheritances. Now this is heaven’s favorite. How can I compare to him, when I only have one?”

“Ahe-hem, getting my inheritance is the highlight of anyone’s life. And what’s the use of having so many anyway? Unable to reach their peak will still get you beaten up.” The fire dragon scolded.

Ye Lin grinned, “And if he does train them?”

“Uhm, well…” The fire dragon sighed, “Then he’ll be unstoppable.”

Ye Lin stood there stunned.

But then, the fire dragon shook his head, “Which is impossible. The ultimate skills of Sovereigns and the abilities of sacred beasts came about after millions of years. To master them all is just not feasible. It’s better if you stick with mine, on the path of the fire dragon, rather than bite more than you can chew. And you don’t have Nine Serenities Sovereign’s inheritance either and can’t agree to having so many powers. You’ll only die.”

Disappointed still, Ye Lin nodded in the end, then he looked down on Zhuo Fan, “Master, his body shows no sign of life, ruined. But his soul might be saved.”

“Ha-ha-ha, his soul is under Chaos Flame’s protection and should recover by himself. But wounded as he is, only if I trigger it. As for his body, it’s not ruined just yet. He has the Blood Infant protecting it. It holds the source of life. As long as Blood Infant is around, his body will never die. His severely damaged body needs to be repaired, is all.”

The fire dragon hissed as he ripped a golden scale, placing it over Zhuo Fan’s body. Then a scorching golden flame engulfed him, burning hotter and hotter…
