Chapter 565: End Of The First Round
Ye Xiao was looking at everything happening from a distance away. He could not help but admire the Fire Demon King"s plan. He was actually able to think things through and come up with a plan to kill so many demons at once.
From the look of it, among these demons, Yu Long and the Demon Elder were the ones with high authority. They must have a powerful background for them to be able to control a group of so many Demon Emperor Realm demons.
They must have come here to obtain the Fiery Raging Lotus and to do that, they must eliminate the group of Fire Demons and the most important as well as the most dangerous one, the Fire Demon King.
Although Fiery Raging Lotus was a rare medicinal herb, it was not something that Ye Xiao covets. He had no interest in the Fiery Raging Lotus. What he was interested in were the group of these Fire Demons. It was because when he came in contact with a Fire Demon that was killed by Yu Long"s group of demons, he felt the Sun Fire Soul within his body as if it was craving for something, something that could make it strong.
Ye Xiao did not know what it was but when he placed his hand on the body of the Fire Demon, the Sun Fire Soul immediately peeked out from his hand and enveloped the body of the Fire Demon before sucking something out of it.
Ye Xiao did this a few more times and only then did he find out that the Sun Fire Soul was actually sucking some sort of red crystal from the bodies of the Fire Demons. The red crystal must be the source of the power of these Fire Demons.
Experimenting some more, Ye Xiao came to a conclusion that the red crystal must be doing the same role as a demonic beast"s demon core. And since it contains the purest fire energy, it was something that could make the Sun Fire Soul stronger.
From that time on, Ye Xiao continued to use the Sun Fire Soul to suck the red crystal out of the Fire Demon"s body. Moreover, Sun Fire Soul also quickly refined it so Ye Xiao had no need to gather and store them into the spatial ring.
Ye Xiao had no intention of taking part in the fight between two groups of different kinds of demons. He just wanted to look for already dead fire demons.
Anyways, there was not much time left. There were only a few hours left for the First Round of the Compet.i.tion to end. So, Ye Xiao wanted to spend these few hours with ease.
.....
The fight between the two groups of fire demons continued. But the most interesting fight was the fight between Demon Elder and Fire Demon King.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d, how dare you to injure me, I"ll kill you!"
The Demon Elder shouted in anger and burst with a powerful aura, directly shattering the coming attack of the Fire Demon King. At the same time, he threw out a punch.
The punch of Fire Demon Elder suddenly turned into a big snake that had its mouth wide open.
As the big snake flew at Fire Demon King with its mouth wide open, its size also continued to enlarge. When it reached Fire Demon King, it was already big enough to swallow more than a hundred Fire Demons at once.
When Fire Demon King sensed the threat of death from this snake, he could not help but take a few steps back. But retreating was not the way out, he had to do something otherwise he"ll be swallowed by the big snake.
Fire Demon King could tell the power that Demon Elder has erupted with was not his own. He must be borrowing the strength from something or someone. If he could not resist this snake, he"ll definitely die.
"This Flame Demon Cave is my territory. Nothing could suppress me in my own territory. If you want to kill me, then you have to do more than just use someone else"s strength!"
"Magma Destroyer!"
The Fire Demon King stomped his feet on the ground and the ground suddenly trembled. At the same time, waves after waves are extremely hot air spreads in every direction.
The Fire Demons who come in contact with the waves of hot air took a comfortable groan while the other demons started screaming because of the burning pain. Because of the hot air, the temperature instantly increased by more than three times.
But this was not enough, fountains of magma erupted out from the ground, directly burning the big snake as well as all the demons, even Yu Long was burnt alive. The only alive demon was the Demon Elder now who was badly injured.
It was also the moment when everything around Ye Xiao changed. The token on his body shattered on its own and countless dots of light surrounded his body. And then his figure vanished.
Ye Xiao did not know what happened after inside the Flame Demon Cave. What appeared in front of him in the next moment was a totally different scene. He had once again returned to the Great Martial City.
Well, at least, Ye Xiao now knew how to strengthen his Sun Fire Soul. When he"ll return to the Immortal Star World, he decided to visit the Land of Fire once again and kill as many Flame Demons as he could. At the same time, he could also investigate the h.e.l.l Fire and try to devour it. By doing this, his Sun Fire Soul might evolve once again.
It has to know that the h.e.l.l Fire was extremely terrifying. There was nothing that the h.e.l.l Fire could not burn. Whenever it appears, it would always burn all the lives of the Land of Ice and Fire, and it would take another few hundred years for this land to give birth to lives once again.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao observed his surroundings. There were many people who appeared around him and all of them were the candidates who pa.s.sed the First Round of the Compet.i.tion of Myriad Worlds.
The entire Great Martial City has crowded with people once again. But this time, there were fewer people from the first time. It was because thousands of people have already died and thousands of people were eliminated because they choose to shatter the token to save their lives.
Ji Yanran, Zhao Qing"er, and Yi Meng were only three of such people. Of course, their reason for shattering the token was not to save their lives. They choose to take this step because the three of them had no interest in the Compet.i.tion to begin with.
Ji Yanran partic.i.p.ated in the Compet.i.tion of Myriad Worlds to search for the secret technique that could let her and her clan cultivate the Yin Yang Heavenly Eyes.
Zhao Qing"er partic.i.p.ated in the Compet.i.tion to look for Ye Xiao because she believed, Ye Xiao must have partic.i.p.ated in the Compet.i.tion of Myriad Worlds.
As for Yi Meng, there were a few reasons why she partic.i.p.ated in the compet.i.tion. One of the reasons was because her sect wanted her to and the second reason was that she wanted to search for the materials that could help her awaken the Reincarnation Body. There were also some other reasons but those were not that important.
Ye Xiao kept standing at his place because no one was moving. All of the people who pa.s.sed the First Round of the Compet.i.tion were waiting for people from the Sacred Land to come and give them the rewards they deserves and were promised.
They did not have to wait for long. The people from the Scared Lands arrived very soon.
One of them flew in the air and said: "Representing all the Sacred Lands of the Great Martial World, I"m here to congratulate all of you to pa.s.s the First Round of the Compet.i.tion. You all have proved yourself worthy to enter the second round by surviving in the six great demon worlds for two whole years."
Stopping for a moment, that person looked below and then again continued to say, "The Second Round of the Compet.i.tion will be held three months later. The same as the First Round, there will be no stage for the Second Round of the Compet.i.tion. The detail will be given three months later."
"As for now, it is the time to give out the rewards promised. I"ll first teach all of you the secret technique to absorb and refine the true Essence into the Spirit Energy. After that, you all can enter the True Essence Pool to cultivate. You all can only stay inside the True Essence Pool for one week. Don"t think that one week is less because, inside the True Essence Pool, one week of time is more than enough to let some people step into the next stage of their cultivation bases.. Absorbing the True Essence for a week is equal to absorbing the Spirit Energy for one year."
