Chapter 2978: Descent of Azure Flame
Great Wilderness World.
After many years of fighting and killing, the structure of the Great Wilderness had already changed drastically. The original three territories of the south, north and west were all under Blue’s jurisdiction.
Only East Wilderness defended their ground and could barely hold on.
Eight hundred years ago, two supreme Demon Kings of the East Wilderness, Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea and Demon Emperor Great Peng, led many people to submit, making the situation in the East Wilderness even worse.
Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea and Demon Emperor Great Peng were the right-hand men of Demon Empress Blood b.u.t.terfly of the East Wilderness.
The departure of the two supreme Demon Emperors dealt a huge blow to East Wilderness!
More than 800 years ago, in the battle with Blue, East Wilderness relied on the appearance of Desolate Martial to win by luck and obtain some breathing room.
However, all the living beings of the Great Wilderness knew that the East Wilderness could not hold on for long. It was inevitable that the Great Wilderness would be annexed by Blue.
It was said that Desolate Martial had just entered the Emperor realm and could not affect the overall situation.
Furthermore, Emperor Azure Flame and the other top experts did not appear in the battle more than 800 years ago.
On this day.
Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea, Demon Emperor Great Peng, Demon Emperor Spirit Horn, Demon Emperor Fei Lian, Demon Emperor Huo Dou and the other supreme Demon Emperors as well as more than ten ordinary Demon Emperors stood respectfully at the entrance of a hall with solemn expressions.
Outside the hall, there were many Demon Kings surrounding and countless demon armies were gathered. There was a sea of people and flags fluttered.
Before long, a void door suddenly opened in the sky and more than a hundred figures walked out.
Although there were only a little more than a hundred people and they could not compare to the hundreds of millions of demon troops below, the moment these people appeared, the world instantly fell silent!
The aura emitted by the hundred-odd figures was way too terrifying.
The moment these people appeared, the living beings below seemed to have their throats grabbed by an invisible pair of hands. They could not breathe and kept silent out of fear!
The leader wore a dark green robe and had green hair. His face was fair and his eyes were bright as he looked down at the living beings beneath his feet.
No one dared to meet his gaze!
This was Emperor Azure Flame!
Splas.h.!.+
As though they could not withstand some pressure, the living beings everywhere knelt on the ground one after another.
Even Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea, Demon Emperor Great Peng and the other supreme Demon Emperors standing at the entrance of the hall knelt down with respectful expressions.
Emperor Azure Flame nodded slightly with a smile, as though he was very satisfied with this scene.
Beside him stood seven peak Emperors, five men and two women.
Some had calm expressions, some had ferocious expressions, some had torrential malevolent auras and some were seductive…
These seven were the Seven Mansions Demon Emperors under Emperor Azure Flame!
Behind the Seven Mansions Demon Emperors were ten-odd ordinary Emperors and dozens of Demon Kings.
The Demon Kings looked young and looked around, as though they were curious about their surroundings.
Emperor Azure Flame led everyone down slowly from the sky. Step by step, it was as though there were stairs in the void beneath his feet.
The entire process was rather slow. However, from the beginning to the end, none of the millions of living beings of the Great Wilderness below dared to raise their heads and speak. They knelt on the spot obediently.
Any abnormal movements at that moment could attract a fatal disaster!
Prior to this, a Demon Emperor raised his head and stole a glance. Emperor Azure Flame sensed it and a Mansion Demon Emperor behind him killed the Demon Emperor on the spot!
Emperor Azure Flame and the others arrived in front of the hall.
Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea lowered his head instinctively and almost knelt on the ground. The bloodline in his body had already stopped circulating!
This was a bloodline suppression!
Although he was of the Dragon race, he could not help but choose to submit to the bloodline of the Azure Dragon lineage.
“Oh?”
Emperor Azure Flame s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea and raised his brow slightly. “You’re only thinking of submitting now?”
When he heard that, Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea’s heart skipped a beat and he broke out in cold sweat.
“Lord Azure Flame, I know my mistake now!”
Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea kowtowed hurriedly and confessed.
At the side, Demon Emperor Great Peng and Demon Emperor Kui Niu trembled in fear as well.
Emperor Azure Flame’s aura was way too strong!
Although they were only a single cultivation realm apart, the difference in combat strength was worlds apart. Emperor Azure Flame could tear Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea and the other two into pieces with a casual wave of his hand!
Emperor Azure Flame did not say anything either. Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea and the other two were on tenterhooks and did not dare to look up. They endured the silent torture and were drenched in sweat.
A moment later, Emperor Azure Flame chuckled. “It’s good that you know your mistake. I’ll give you guys a chance.”
“I’ll definitely not let you down, Lord Azure Flame!”
Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea said hurriedly.
Emperor Azure Flame entered the hall and sat in the middle before saying indifferently, “Rise.”
Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea and the others lowered their heads and moved to the hall as though they had been pardoned.
“Where’s Nine Yin?”
Emperor Azure Flame looked around and asked, “Why are there fewer Demon Emperors?”
Demon Emperor Spirit Hom hurriedly recounted the battle 800 years ago in detail.
The moment Demon Emperor Spirit Horn finished speaking, Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea took over. “Lord Azure Flame, during the battle, me, Great Peng and Kui Niu did not step in the entire time.”
“Fellow Daoist Spirit Horn and the others fled… When they retreated, we even appeared and stopped the pursuit of Desolate Martial and the others.”
Back when Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea decided to stand by and do nothing, he had already considered the current situation.
If he had started a ma.s.sacre against the living beings of Blue back then, it would be difficult for him to explain himself when he was facing Emperor Azure Flame now and his life might be in danger!
Actually, Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea was overthinking.
To Emperor Azure Flame, the living beings of the Great Wilderness were like ants in front of him and their lives were worthless. No matter how many people died there, he would not care.
However, Demon Emperor Nine Yin was from Blue after all and was once his subordinate.
“Desolate Martial?”
Emperor Azure Flame murmured expressionlessly.
“Lord Azure Flame.”
Dragon Emperor Desolate Sea said in a deep voice, “There’s nothing to fear about Desolate Martial. In this battle, I’ll take revenge for Fellow Daoist Nine Yin personally and chop off Desolate Martial’s head to offer to you, my lord!”
Demon Emperor Great Peng added, “Lord Azure Flame, with your return, we’ll definitely be able to kill Blood b.u.t.terfly, flatten the East Wilderness and rule over the world!”
“Kill Blood b.u.t.terfly?”
Emperor Azure Flame smiled gently and shook his head. “What do you guys know?”
“The reason why I’ve been keeping her alive and giving her enough time to recover is because I’m using her to sharpen my Dharmic Dao so that I can advance further.”
“If I want to flatten the East Wilderness, as long as I mobilize enough strength, I can do it at any time. Killing that Blood b.u.t.terfly will also be a piece of cake.”
Demon Emperor Great Peng smiled. “So you don’t take her seriously at all,
Lord. You merely treat her as a whetstone.”
“The greatest heroes are molded!”
Emperor Azure Flame said slowly, “Only through continuous battles can my Azure Dragon bloodline be completely stimulated and my Dharmic Dao be pushed to its limits!”
At that point, Emperor Azure Flame stood up and his eyes were filled with fighting spirit. The blood qi in his body rose and Dragon Qi surrounded him.
“A mere b.u.t.terfly actually dares to resist me until now. 1’11 see who can take that step first between the two of us!”
Emperor Azure Flame’s gaze seemed to penetrate the layers of void and land on b.u.t.terfly Valley of the East Wilderness..
