Chapter 193: Part Immortal and Part Demon
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Black Blood Stones in Marquis Champion’s hands were most likely a gift from the Emperor of Dashang.
Of course, it couldn’t be ruled out that Marquis Champion had plundered them from other places.
It would be better if he had plundered them elsewhere.
However, if they were gifted by the Emperor of Dashang, then the things hidden beneath the surface would be dreadful.
After all, in today’s world, things like black blood stones were almost extinct.
Yet Dashang had an inconceivable amount, enough to bestow upon a mere Marquis. This was simply inconceivable!
Either this Marquis Champion really was the illegitimate son of the Dashang Emperor like the rumors said!
Or…
The Dashang Empire had a connection with the dark creatures!
“If the Dashang Empire really has a connection with the dark creatures, then their power is definitely far from being as simple as it appears on the surface… I’m afraid they still have much greater schemes brewing in the shadows!”
Su Chen raised his head and looked at the sky. A cold light flashed in his deep eyes.
He could faintly feel that the Emperor of Dashang might not be as dissolute as the outside rumors made him seem…
“I wonder if Ye Ruxue knows anything about the secret… After I’m done with these things, I should try to contact her and ask.”
Thinking of this…
Su Chen turned and glanced at the other prodigies, not lingering any further. He directly summoned the golden chariot and flashed inside.
Swoosh!
The golden chariot turned into a streak of light and flew toward the ruins of the Little Thunderclap Temple.
Since the Dashang Empire wasn’t simple, it wouldn’t be wise for him to continue staying in the Dashang Empire.
He might as well directly obtain the Nine Transformations Golden Body Art and leave this place quickly.
Many prodigies watched Su Chen leave.
The Heavenly Heart Holy Son and the others heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Su Chen’s golden chariot disappear before their eyes.
“If I had known that Su Chen was so terrifying, I wouldn’t have dared to step into Dashang’s territory no matter how high the price was!”
The demon prodigy from before said resentfully.
“Alas, who doesn’t think so?”
Hearing this, Yin Lie nodded in agreement and continued, “In the entire East Barrens, there shouldn’t be anyone who can fight Su Chen, right?”
“Not necessarily!”
When the demon prodigy heard this, he seemed to have thought of something and said, “Two princes of my Demon Race’s Golden Crow Clan have entered the mortal world. They are both at the Nirvana Realm and should be able to fight Su Chen!”
“Ha…”
Hearing this, Yin Lie sneered.
Then, he revealed a mocking expression and said, “I heard that the two princes of the Golden Crow Clan seem to be chasing after a crippled body. Is that true? By the way, I also heard that the crippled body is only at the peak stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. He hasn’t even started the Nirvana Tribulation. Are these rumors true?”
The Golden Crow had been known as the royal family among the demons since ancient times!
In ancient times, the Golden Crow Clan had ruled over the entire Demon Race.
In that era, even the Four Great Divine Beasts had to submit.
But as time pa.s.sed, the Golden Crow Clan gradually declined, losing their former prestige.
Even so, the Golden Crow Clan was still a rather large clan among the demons.
Two princes of the Golden Crow Clan had entered the mortal world!
This was explosive news for the entire East Barrens and even Central Plains, attracting countless forces’ attention.
However, the dramatic thing was…
As soon as the two princes of the Golden Crow Clan entered the world, they suffered a great loss at the hands of a n.o.body cripple.
Although Yin Lie was questioning, he was actually being sarcastic.
The meaning was obvious.
How could a Golden Crow Clan prince be compared to Su Chen?
Su Chen had killed Marquis Champion without expending much effort at all.
And Marquis Champion wasn’t a cripple. He had a genuine divine body and had successfully pa.s.sed the ninth Nirvana Tribulation!
With Su Chen’s strength, there was no way he would suffer a huge loss at the hands of some n.o.body cripple.
“Haha… In this golden age, heroes rise together. Su Chen of the Great Mystery Holy Land will sooner or later encounter the Golden Crow Clan princes of my Demon Race. When the time comes, we’ll see who can laugh last!”
The prodigy of the Demon Race sneered and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into a stream of light and rushed into the sky. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
They had come here at Marquis Champion’s invitation, to a.s.sist him in surrounding and killing Su Chen.
But now that Marquis Champion was dead, there was no point in them staying here. It was better for them to go home.
With the demon prodigy taking the lead, the other prodigies looked at each other and greeted each other before dispersing.
At the same time, within a mysterious s.p.a.ce in Dashang’s imperial city!
This place was pitch-black. As far as the eye could see, black mist churned everywhere, as if it were a land where demons were born.
Boom!
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light shone.
Immediately after, a majestic figure appeared in the mysterious s.p.a.ce.
He stood there silently, his entire body emanating divine radiance. Half of it was golden, while the other half was pitch-black as if he were part immortal and part demon. He looked extremely bizarre.
Yet within that bizarreness, there was also a trace of kindness.
Buzz…
The man suddenly opened his eyes.
Boom!
A saint pressure spread out and swept in all directions, stirring up the black mist in the entire s.p.a.ce.
One of his eyes was golden, while the other was pitch-black and br.i.m.m.i.n.g with demonic power, like a black hole.
“Marquis Champion is dead!”
The man looked at the pitch-black void in front of him and slowly said.
Boom!
The moment he spoke, the dazzling radiance on his body surged even more, completely suppressing the other half of the black light. It was impossible to look at him directly as if a deity had descended to the mortal world.
As he finished speaking, the void in front of him began to distort.
Then, a corpse appeared in the air.
This corpse was none other than Marquis Champion whom Su Chen had just killed!
“I have long said that he has peerless talent, but he lacks the ability to suppress the current generation. Haha… Relying on his unmatched apt.i.tude, he thought to carve out his own path in this golden age. In the end, he was merely a stepping stone beneath another’s feet!”
A hoa.r.s.e voice came from the depths of the pitch-black s.p.a.ce.
“But he died too early! I expected him to at least break through to the Saint Realm before he died!”
The man’s golden and black eyes swirled as he gazed at the pitch-black void before him and said solemnly.
“It’s good that he died, so as not to ruin that body!”
The hoa.r.s.e voice sounded again, and there was undisguised disdain in his tone.
Obviously, he didn’t think highly of the previous Marquis Champion.
“He died at the Nirvana Realm. However, his body was still too weak… Although he refined quite a number of Black Blood Stones beforehand, it still may not be able to accommodate your divine soul!” the man said indifferently.
His eyes were like sharp blades as he stared at the void before him.
Buzz…
Black mist churned.
In the depths, an indistinct humanoid silhouette could be seen.
Yet upon closer inspection, there were still considerable differences compared to a true humanoid creature..
