812: Chapter 462: Changes in the Western Lands, Descend!
Your Majesty!
The Bread of the Holy Venerable, A Great Battle Approaches.
Gazing internally at his body, behind the golden figure within Yi Chen’s acupoints, a golden elephant suddenly appeared.
This breakthrough had significantly advanced his four-dimensional attributes and life span, not to mention the terrifying power of the Pure Yang Forbidden Fist, the final form realized from the Taoist’s demonstration of techniques and boxing within Yi Chen’s memories.
“Western Extreme Demon Lord, Kun Yue, await your doom!”
A strange levitating force suddenly enveloped all the Demon Bears, lifting them out of the sinking cave, and Yi Chen casually dropped a ten-thousand-pound Blood Essence Stone before turning around to leave.
A stranger is always suspect.
Bears included.
Yi Chen had no intention of spreading Martial Path into the Demon Realm.
Moreover, from his observations these past few days, perhaps due to their innate physiques being too strong, there weren’t many in the Demon Realm known for their intelligence…
The Taoist steps out on the moon, returning as the morning light began to grow faint; by this moment, he had ascended to the twenty-third layer of True Technique and acquired the formidable Pure Yang Forbidden Fist, rendering his power frightening enough to make one’s heart tremble.
“Holy Venerable, Holy Venerable!”
The cries echoed intermittently at the campsite of the Demon Righteous Church, Yi Chen gracefully nodding one by one.
At this moment, Selena, looking travel-worn, approached with a group of Demonkin from another direction.
Seeing Yi Chen, she startled and said, “Holy Venerable, how come you are returning from outside?
I have matters to report to you.”
“Ah, do not blame me, Holy Venerable, I spoke out of turn.”
Realizing she had misspoken, Selena immediately gave an embarrassed smile.
Used to ruling Youcheng, she was accustomed to speaking freely; now that she was subordinate to Yi Chen, she struggled with adjusting to her new role, leading to her earlier candidness.
Thinking of Yi Chen’s ruthless methods from the previous day, Selena couldn’t help feeling anxious.
She knew well that their leader of the Demon Righteous Church was not one to be trifled with, and if her words raised any suspicions…
“Do not worry, Vice Sect Hierarch Selena has been laboring tirelessly for the cause of our church; such a trifling matter is not something I would dwell upon.”
Yi Chen immediately grinned, expressing understanding for Selena’s indiscretion on the spot.
With his divine strength, anyone harboring ill intent towards him, unless they were a Demon Lord-level master or a cultivation expert possessing certain top-tier exotic treasures or secret techniques, would struggle to evade his senses.
“By the way, Selena, you just mentioned you wanted to see me, what is the matter exactly?”
“Ah, Holy Venerable, the task you entrusted to me has been discreetly completed.”
“I mobilized manpower and personally captured two thousand Demon Bears; I wonder if this will suffice for the Holy Venerable?”
“If not enough, I will capture more.
With the great battle imminent, we dare not mishandle your important affairs.”
A voice transmission suddenly resonated in Yi Chen’s mind as he looked at Selena’s earnest and serious face…He found it difficult to keep a straight face.
“Rest assured, Holy Venerable, these Demon Bears have been personally secured by me, heavily guarded, and even their daily meals undergo multiple checks to ensure absolutely nothing goes wrong.”
“Ah…
well done!
Selena, I trust your work.”
“Come to my room, I have some matters to further instruct you on.”
A thought flashed in Yi Chen’s mind, and he immediately transmitted his voice to Selena.
Now, two paths lay before Yi Chen.
The first was to recklessly disregard the previous commitment to a duel and forcefully storm the Western Extreme Royal City to slay the Western Extreme Demon Lord, Kun Yue.
This approach had two disadvantages.
Firstly, with the King City Great Array in place, killing Kun Yue, who was at the Fourth Realm of Breakthrough Limit, would likely require Yi Chen to reveal all his strengths.
Previously, he had managed a draw in the fight by exploiting an advantage; in a fair battle, he would have to flee.
Moreover, such actions would likely disturb the balance of the Demon Realm and alert the other three Great Demon Lords, prompting them to band together, which would not be beneficial for the subsequent proceedings.
“Divide and conquer!
I mustn’t frighten my little darlings.”
“Moreover, breaking faith and violating the pact, while effective, isn’t reputable; wanting to harvest the Demon Realm for a long time, it’s still necessary to save face when possible, for those who urinate into the pool from the shore meet no good end.”
Having made up his mind, Yi Chen and the Centaur girl entered his room.
Although he felt incredibly powerful, the Demon Realm was ultimately favored by fate, profoundly deep-rooted; if some formidable old demon emerged from some corner to meddle with him, it would be rather troublesome.
As the old ancestors said, “Build high walls, accumulate provisions, and claim kingship slowly.” This timeless proverb was applicable everywhere.
Since that was the case.
“Come, have some tea!”
“Selena, I think there is no need for you to be overly strict in monitoring the Demon Bears.”
“Ah…
Ah?”
“Eh, Selena, there are bad people within our Demon Righteous Church.”
“The meaning of this leader is, you intentionally expose a few vulnerabilities, and then find out those Demonkin who are not aligned with us, this is the way to ensure long and enduring peace.”
“Previously, in order to expand, our Demon Righteous Church really had a mixture of good and bad.
For these weeds hidden within our Demon Righteous Church, we must root them out.”
Whether a person has integrity or loyalty, sometimes it cannot be clearly seen until crucial moments.
Yi Chen decided to go fishing once more and let the situation simmer slowly.
“Holy Venerable, if something happens to that Demon Bear…”
“Oh, don’t take that too seriously, I was just deceiving them.”
Selena’s lips parted widely, she almost spoke the words on her lips but swallowed them back down.
After all, she was no longer the outspoken City Lord of Youcheng, she was now the Vice Sect Hierarch of the Demon Righteous Church.
Thinking of how she had been busy catching Demon Bears to earn merits for the past few days, a wave of bitterness welled up in Selena’s heart, following such a leader was exhausting her.
“Selena, I have observed your merits.”
“If this leader’s great venture succeeds, I will definitely help you elevate your Demon Skill and break through your limits again!”
Watching the numb expression on the face of the Centaur girl, Yi Chen patted Selena on the shoulder and reassured her warmly.
In a dark corner, Lord Tan Lang’s tail had already begun to tremble slightly.
“Selena, work hard, if I become the Demon Emperor one day, you will be my foremost Demon Lord.”
Just as Selena showed a surprised expression, seemingly having finally received Yi Chen’s promise, another promise, even bigger than the previous, smeared across her face.
After a while, Selena staggered out of the room.
She looked back, a touch of puzzlement flashed through her eyes as blue as sapphires.
Somehow, she always felt that the Holy Venerable seemed different after he had gone out.
Compared to before, the Holy Venerable seemed… stronger.
“Could it be…”
With a flurry of thoughts, Selena still shook her head, suppressing that guess in her heart.
“It seems I have indeed been overthinking lately.
Cultivation is no simple matter, it couldn’t be that the Holy Venerable went out in the middle of the night and had already broken through upon his return.”
“Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!” Selena chuckled to herself and immediately left the courtyard.
…
…
Human Realm, Western Lands.
In a gloomy castle, a young man dressed in splendid attire smiled joyously as he slowly walked to the edge of the Blood Pool and placed his large hand gently on the thickest Coiled Dragon Pillar.
At the same time, frenzied shouts suddenly echoed throughout the entire castle.
“Praise to His Majesty Asna, the Supreme Holy Emperor of the Four Extreme Celestial Black Heavens.”
“Praise to His Majesty Asna, the Supreme Holy Emperor of the Four Extreme Celestial Black Heavens!”
“Praise to His Majesty Asna, the Supreme Holy Emperor of the Four Extreme Celestial Black Heavens!!!”
The fanatical voices surged one after another, resounding within the castle for a long time with lingering echoes.
A strange rhombus-shaped purple crystal emerged from the forehead of the exquisitely dressed young man, and eerie murmurs suddenly wafted above the Blood Pool.
As intense Evil Force penetrated from his palm into the five Coiled Dragon Pillars, a vortex suddenly rose in the center of the Blood Pool, and an unusual Hexagram Array ascended amongst the five great Coiled Dragon Pillars.
“Your Majesty!
Your loyal servant prays for your Divided Spirit to descend!”
“May all call upon your name!”
“May your will walk on Earth, just as it walks in Heaven!”
…
Along with the young man’s facial expressions that appeared spasmodic and his fanatical speech, an incredibly thick blood plasma suddenly burst forth from random places within the castle.
As for the strange happenings here, the outside world remained unaware, at this moment, at an immensely distant and unknown place, a colossal red meteor slowly stirred.
Heading towards the Western Lands, a colossal disaster approached. freeweɓnøvel.com
