Chapter 247 - Blood Of Returning Ancestors
As soon as the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord had just stabilized his body, a storage ring appeared in his hand.
He subconsciously looked in the direction where Chen Chen was and realized that Chen Chen was staring at him with a smile...that was somewhat warm.
After checking the things in the storage ring, the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord began trembling even more vigorously than before!
The storage ring was full of treasures that served the function of healing and recovery! Even if he stayed there to fight for ten days and ten nights, he wouldn't have to panic!
"This..."
The Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord was flabbergasted.
He had a Baneful Body that made him suffer from terrible luck, even though it wouldn't be easy for him to die. Usually, he wouldn't chance upon any treasures at all, and he rose to fame because of his cultivation level.
On the contrary, his disciple, Zhang Ji, was favored by the heavens, as he had two lucky encounters within a month since he was brought back to the Seven Lethal Demon Clan, which allowed his cultivation level to improve by leaps and bounds.
To be honest, he was vaguely envious of Zhang Ji.
However, when he looked at Chen Chen...
He felt that Chen Chen belonged to another world!
Chen Chen had given away such a large amount of treasures just like that. The Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord wondered if Chen Chen was just really rich or that his masters had given those treasures to him.
In this battle, the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord didn't have time to think at all. After swallowing a recovery-type treasure, he fought with the Divine Snow Demon Emperor.
Ever since he was born, he had always been on the brink of death when he broke through his cultivation realms. He had never been as confident as he has been now.
It was a fresh and pleasant feeling that made him unbridled.
The battle in the sky instantly became extremely intense!
The cultivators below the Essence Soul realm probably would not be able to withstand the aftershocks of the attacks of those who were at the peak of the Essence Soul realm. Soon, Chen Chen and a few Essence Soul realm experts were the only ones left.
Seeing that the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord was getting stronger and stronger, and his abilities gradually reached their peak, the Divine Snow Demon Emperor was anxious and furious!
Having missed such a perfect opportunity, he was overwhelmed with indescribable regret.
However, the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor was still as reckless as always. Despite being covered in wounds and blood, he was still attacking fearlessly. Under the joint attacks of two demons, he was still repressing the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord steadily.
Of course, it was just repression, and it was almost impossible to kill the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord.
The Demon Emperor felt like retreating, but if the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor wouldn't leave, he would have to comply.
...
The battle lasted for an entire day.
Under the high intensity of the battle, the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord swallowed a large number of treasures.
Even the Divine Snow Demon Emperor swallowed plenty of treasures.
The only difference was that the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord was swallowing the treasures belonging to others, so he didn't feel much about it.
On the other hand, the Divine Snow Demon Emperor had consumed his treasures, which made him feel the pinch.
The Berserk Lion Demon Emperor who was beside him only had half of his body left. He was surprisingly still alive. but there was lesser mania in his eyes.
"This lunatic has really harmed me badly!"
The Divine Snow Demon Emperor cursed angrily in his heart. If not for his repeated attempts to save the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor, he would have died a long time ago.
After experiencing an intense battle that lasted an entire day, the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor's strength was no longer at its peak, and instead, it had weakened to the point that he had become a burden!
If not, he wouldn't have had to swallow so many treasures!
Just as he was cursing, the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor seemed to have woken up abruptly. He turned around to fly away at an astonishing speed, making the Divine Snow Demon Emperor so furious that he almost couldn't breathe.
Seeing that the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor was trying to flee, the Seven-Slaughtering Demon Lord tried to chase after him, but he was stopped.
Although he was upset with the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor, the Divine Ice Demon Emperor still had to create an opportunity for him to escape.
Looking at the distant figure, Chen Chen's expression changed numerous times. In the end, he gritted his teeth and took chase.
The Berserk Lion Demon Emperor may be extremely difficult to kill because of his destiny, he had actually become much stronger after suffering severe injuries previously.
'He might just reach the peak of the Essence Soul realm when he comes back again.'
'So this time, no matter what, we must find the opportunity to kill him.'
For safety reasons, Chen Chen brought Zhang Ji along.
'A demon and a human would cancel each other out. If God doesn't help, we should be able to kill him.'
Chen Chen thought to himself while flying.
...
The Berserk Lion Demon Emperor did not maintain his speed for long as he soon slowed down and hid in a certain mountain.
At the same time, a special stream of blood began to flow rapidly again. It not only repaired his injuries quickly, it also slowly increased his cultivation level.
As a Berserk Lion who had an improved bloodline, he knew that the only way to become stronger and faster was to go mad.
That was the special characteristic of Berserk Lions. The more maniacal they were, the stronger they would be.
...
At this moment, Chen Chen had already been left far behind.
Seeing that the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor was gone, Zhang Ji somewhat blamed himself.
"Big Brother, if you hadn't brought me along, you should have been able to catch him up."
Chen Chen shook his head and said with a gloomy expression, "This Berserk Lion Demon Emperor is not simple. He probably was enhanced with luck, and killing him would be extremely difficult. However, you and I, the people of destiny, can kill him only if we join hands!"
Zhang Ji felt slightly embarrassed when he heard those words.
Since the beginning, he felt that he was just a bit lucky.
He felt that Chen Chen was the true Son of Destiny.
"System, I want to use a 50-kilometer tracking opportunity to search for the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor."
"49.99 kilometers to the southwest of the mountains."
Hearing the answer given by the system, sweat broke out on Chen Chen's head.
That was close!
If he had flown a little further, he would have missed because it would be beyond the tracking range of the system.
God knows that he would have been able to track the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor if he hadn't brought Zhang Ji out with him.
'Heaven is so mean, it's really prejudiced and favors only a select group of people!'
"Big Brother, how about I go back... I'll only be dragging you down if I stay here."
The more Zhang Ji thought about it, the more embarrassed he felt. He simply took Chen Chen's words as a form of comfort. Hence, he suggested leaving.
Hearing his words, Chen Chen's face suddenly became stern and he said solemnly, "Stop, we're close like brothers, and together, we can achieve anything!"
After saying this, he pulled Zhang Ji along and flew in the southwest direction. Soon, he arrived above a large mountain.
"System, where is the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor?"
"98 meters below."
Hearing this answer, Chen Chen hurriedly pulled Green Bean out from the Little Carefree Immortal Palace.
During this period, Green Bean had been spending most of its days sleeping, and it seemed to be breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, but it was suddenly pulled out by Chen Chen. Its eyes were still a little blurry.
Since Green Bean was out, Qinglin naturally tagged along.
Qinglin did not even bother to look at Chen Chen. Since the last time that she got cheated by Chen Chen, she decided to strictly not cross paths with Chen Chen again in the future.
"Sister Qinglin, the demon who injured you last time is hiding in the mountains and he's severely injured. Do you want to take revenge!?!"
Chen Chen ignored her and remained smiling, but his tone was full of temptation.
"No," Qinglin refuted outrightly.
Chen Chen choked but after a moment, he let out a long sigh and said, "Forget it, this Berserk Lion Demon Emperor is indeed not simple. In terms of bloodline, he's considered the best among all demons. It's only natural for you to be afraid of him, Sister Qinglin."
Enraged by his words, Qinglin barked, "Why would I be scared of him? Rascal, don't spout nonsense! It's just a land demon, it's not worthy!"
The corners of Chen Chen's eyes twitched uncontrollably.
Only a sea demon would be fooled by such a low-level trick of provocation... In his previous life, it would probably only deceive a trick.
At the thought of it, he took a deep breath, shook his head, and said, "Sister Qinglin, stop, let's go. It was indeed my fault previously, and I hope that you can get over that emotional trauma soon."
Before he could finish saying those words, Qinglin had already turned the mountain into ashes!
The Berserk Lion Demon Emperor also appeared.
However, at this time, he seemed to have fallen into a state of pseudo-death. Even if the mountains around him crumbled, he didn't react.
Seeing this scene, Chen Chen's heart was full of joy and regret.
In such a state, Chen Chen could kill him without Qinglin's help.
Qinglin seemed slightly relieved, but a moment later, she looked arrogant again.
"Hmph! This lion demon is so badly injured. I usually wouldn't bother taking advantage of demons, and attack them when they're down, but I'm helping you today because you asked."
After saying that, Qinglin's eyes lit up as if she was accumulating the power of divine sense and preparing for a huge strike.
Clearly, even if the Berserk Lion was in the state of a pseudo-death, she was still extremely conscientious and wary.
After doing so for a minute, the power of divine senses in front of her seemed to be taking shape and was about to turn into a trident!
"Die!"
When the trident was fully formed, Qinglin bellowed and the trident flew out immediately before blasting at the head of the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor.
Bang!
With a loud, explosive sound, the Berserk Lion Demon Emperor's head directly exploded, and his essence soul was damaged too.
Huff!
Seeing this, Chen Chen was completely relieved, because such a demon would die even at his hands.
Just as he was feeling smug, a pool of colorful blood flowed out slowly, lighting up half of the sky!
Both Chen Chen and Qinglin had a drastic change in expression when they saw the colorful light.
Chen Chen even silently asked the system in his mind.
"System, where is the blood of the most valuable item within a hundred meters?"
"The Blood of the Returning Demon God 80 meters below!"
