Chapter 195 The Undying Demon Lord
what's the situation?
Has Ji Hongxin of the Ji family gone mad? Kneeling before a fire dragon and calling it "Master"?
Chen Ming found the scene somewhat bizarre.

According to historical records, in the ancient times ten thousand years ago, this world was teeming with monsters. Later, the human race became the rulers of this world.

In the Immortal Dynasty of Longevity, there are many records of nobles raising demonic beasts.

It is said that the Longevity Emperor had a beloved concubine who was a descendant of the Demon Queen.

Until modern times, the demon race finally disappeared, and many people thought that the demon race was just a legendary existence.

"Could it be that the Ji family possesses demon blood, which is why they have a natural reverence for demons?"

Chen Ming made this guess in his mind.

"It's you!"

Suddenly, the palace-dressed girl who had been hiding far away shouted excitedly, "You were the one who betrayed my father back then!"

This girl was indeed the nominal daughter of the King of Zhenhai, Princess Mingyu.

It seems she truly considers herself the daughter of the King of Zhenhai.

"sell?"

Ji Hongxin responded as if he'd heard a joke, "I was just using him. If it weren't for me, how would he have known about the existence of the Tomb of Immortality? And how could he have come here?"

Those present grew increasingly uneasy as they listened, feeling that the situation was taking an increasingly bizarre turn. Was it really Ji Hongxin who was the mastermind behind it all?
What exactly is he trying to achieve by doing this?
The official from the Six Doors, surnamed Jin, with a penetrating wound in his chest, shouted, "Ji Hongxin, have you gone mad? How could you recognize a beast as your master?"

Ji Hongxin wasn't angry at all; he just sneered, "What do you know?"

Having said that, he ignored the others and instead asked the Fire Dragon with a fanatical expression, "Master, among these people, is there any body you fancy?"

The enormous fire dragon lay sprawled on the ground, blood gushing from its wounds, dripping onto the ground like red lava. It raised its head, a pale purple light emanating from its remaining eye, which swept over everyone present.

Even Chen Ming, who was a hundred meters away, felt a cold gaze sweep over him, and a chill ran down his spine, as if his body had been seen through.

Upon witnessing this scene, Senior Brother Zhu from the Blood Demon Sect's expression changed slightly, and he exclaimed, "It's the Undying Demon Lord!"

what?
Upon hearing this, many people present changed their expressions drastically.

An old man exclaimed, "Impossible! Hasn't the Undying Demon Lord been suppressed at the summit of Tianji Mountain all along?"

"Could it be one of the escaped members of the Undying Demon Sect from back then?"

"No wonder Ji Hongxin would do such a heinous thing; it turns out he has become a puppet of the Undying Demon Sect."

"..."

……

Chen Ming whispered to Yu Haitang beside him, "What is the background of this Undying Demon Lord?"

His knowledge in this area was indeed somewhat limited. There was nothing he could do; his strength had increased too quickly, and he hadn't had time to catch up on this aspect.

Yu Haitang's expression was solemn as she transmitted her voice, "In the Longevity Sect, there are six Demon Lords, and this Undying Demon Lord is one of them. Back then, he obtained the method of longevity from the fourth dungeon and cultivated an Undying Demon Soul. He became an immortal being and founded the Undying Demon Sect."

"The Undying Demon Soul can split into fragments, which can be used to parasitize others, turning them into puppets without their knowledge. They are completely obedient to the Demon Soul's commands, making them extremely terrifying. During the previous dynasty, this Undying Demon Lord was suppressed by the Demon Suppression Division at the summit of Tianji Mountain."

It was actually the Demon Lord of the Longevity Sect!
That could be considered one of the most important figures in the world.

Chen Ming noticed that the two golden-clad admirals from the Six Doors turned deathly pale, devoid of any color in their faces, and one of them even quietly led Princess Mingyu away.

A chill ran down his spine, and seeing the two men's reactions, a sense of foreboding welled up inside him.

Holy crap, could I have really won the lottery?

……

"Trying to run? Too late!"

Ji Hongxin let out a wild laugh, and everyone suddenly realized that the nine pillars were emitting a red light, forming a huge light shield that enveloped everyone.

The golden-clad guard responsible for protecting Princess Mingyu suddenly sped up, arrived in front of the light barrier, drew a long sword, and slashed with all his might.

A terrifying power erupted.

This person is also a first-rank official!
The strike, imbued with the full power of a first-grade expert, landed on the light barrier, only flickered slightly before settling back down.

Seeing the reaction of this first-rank official from the Six Doors, everyone else, unless they were completely stupid, realized what was going on and immediately scattered and fled.

Ji Hongxin did not stop them, and remained kneeling in front of the fire dragon, showing no concern that they would escape.

In the fire dragon's single eye, the purple hue became increasingly distinct, gradually coalescing into a human figure.

Finally, the figure materialized, appearing both solid and illusory, giving off an extremely eerie feeling.

The severely injured fire dragon collapsed to the ground as if it had lost its life.

Suddenly, the purple shadow flew off in one direction. It was the only unharmed first-rank officer present, the golden-clad admiral who was protecting Princess Mingyu.

"Do not--"

The man in golden robes swung his sword at the purple figure, but struck only empty air.

The purple shadow flashed past and disappeared into his brow.

He seemed to be frozen in place, remaining motionless.

At this moment, Lord Jin roared, "Kill him quickly, or we will all die here."

Those who could reach the first rank were all decisive individuals, and they all made their moves almost simultaneously. Even Ling Qiyang, who had just been besieged and severely injured, made his move.

Senior Brother Zhu from the Blood Demon Sect also unleashed a slash.

No one knew better than him how terrifying the Undying Demon Lord was. As fellow members of the Longevity Sect, they were intimately familiar with each other's methods and styles of operation.

Within the Longevity Cult, there are six major factions, constantly fighting amongst themselves.

Let alone those from different sects, even those from the same sect still kill each other. This is a common occurrence in the Longevity Sect.

Among them, the Undying Demon Lord is the most terrifying existence. If one is controlled by its divided soul, it is worse than death.

……

Chen Mingren was completely numb; he was utterly unable to intervene in a battle of this level. If the "Mingfeng Sword" were to fully recover to its peak power, it might still be able to injure a first-rank opponent.

Let's save our energy for now.

"Walk."

At this moment, Yu Haitang pulled him along, and taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, they flew towards the fire dragon.

To be precise, it was the golden flame next to the fire dragon.

Accompanying him was Deng Ziyang, who lunged at several corpses on the ground—three of second-rank officials and two of first-rank officials. To him, these recently deceased bodies were the most precious.

He had his sights set on a second-grade corpse, and he inserted the "Blood God Pearl" into the body, devouring everything in its path.

"Humph!"

Ji Hongxin noticed Yu Haitang and Chen Ming's actions. A faint purple light appeared in his eyes, and he casually struck out with his palm.

In his view, he could kill two lowly third-rank lads with ease.

That palm strike transformed into a massive hand of罡元 (罡元 is a type of internal energy), slamming down on Chen Ming and his companion.

Chen Ming's heart tightened, as if facing a formidable enemy. He tried to pull Yu Haitang away, but he couldn't budge her.

what's the situation?
To his astonishment, Yu Haitang's entire aura changed, and a vibrant energy burst forth, rising continuously and quickly surpassing the first-grade level, giving people a sense of unfathomable depth.

A tender sprout appeared on the top of her head, looking both solid and ethereal. It was a very strange sight.

Chen Ming felt the greatness of life from that tender sprout.

As soon as Yu Haitang raised her hand, the massive hand of qi dissipated. Ji Hongxin, who was ten feet away, didn't even utter a sound before his body instantly turned into blood foam.

Faintly, it seemed as if a shrill scream could be heard.

A top-tier expert died just like that, completely wiped out.

Chen Ming was dumbfounded. What kind of power was this?
After Yu Haitang dealt with Ji Hongxin, she took a step, pulled Chen Ming, and teleported to the side of the golden flame, reaching out to grab it.

laugh--

The golden flame shone with intense light, as if resisting the power of the Jade Begonia.

For a moment, she was unable to remove it.

……

On the other side, the first-rank official in gold robes was instantly killed by everyone's attack, his body cut into several pieces.

Soon, the purple figure flew out again, pouncing on another person.

The man's expression changed drastically, and he frantically waved his weapon, but to no avail. The purple shadow seemed to have no substance as it burrowed into his brow.

Then, attacks from several other first-rank warriors followed, similarly cutting him into several pieces.

Purple Shadow chose someone else...

Before long, there were very few people left. As soon as someone was possessed, the others would kill them before they could be controlled, as if they wanted to tear them to pieces.

It's like a death game; anyone chosen by Purple Shadow is doomed.

Senior Brother Zhu from the Blood Demon Sect is dead.

Lord Jin of the Six Doors also died.

……

Chen Ming felt a chill run down his spine. These were all top-tier experts, yet they died one after another, as if they were being chopped into melons and vegetables.

In such situations, the higher one's cultivation level, the faster they will die.

Finally, most of the first-ranked soldiers were dead, leaving only the critically injured and dying Ling Qiyang.

The purple shadow seemed to sense something, abandoned the people present, and flew off in another direction.

not good!

Chen Ming felt a chill run down his spine when he saw the purple shadow flying towards him.

Boom!

At that very moment, Yu Haitang finally took out the golden flame. Instantly, the earth shook and a crack appeared in the ground, revealing a huge sea of ​​lava. The lava spewed upwards, as if it would devour everything.

"careful!"

Chen Ming loudly reminded him.

That purple figure was heading towards the Jade Begonia.

She calmly raised the golden flame in her hand, and a blazing light of utmost strength and yang shone forth.

The purple figure was actually slowed down by the blockade, as if it had been frozen in place.

At this moment, the attacks from the second-rank experts present followed closely, heading straight for Yu Haitang.

Everyone had developed an instinctive reaction: whoever was targeted by Purple Shadow would die.

Yu Haitang had already expended a great deal of power to retrieve the golden flame, and her aura was now much weaker. She raised her hand and barely managed to block the attacks of nearly ten second-rank experts present.

Taking advantage of the moment, the purple shadow broke free from the control of the golden light, turned a corner, and flew towards Chen Ming, who was beside Yu Haitang.

What the hell!

Chen Ming cursed inwardly, his eyes already catching sight of those second-rank cultivators preparing to focus their attacks on him. He released Yu Haitang's hand, narrowly avoiding the purple shadow's pounce.

At the same time, they also dodged the fatal attacks of those second-rank soldiers.

He pushed the movement techniques of "Phoenix Dance Across the World" to their limits.

He was fast, but the purple figure was even faster.

While he was in mid-air, the purple shadow caught up with him and disappeared into his brow.

Chen Ming's body stiffened, he lost control, and fell straight into the sea of ​​lava in the crevice.

"do not want!"

A heart-wrenching scream came from above. Chen Ming smiled bitterly to himself. Was this how it was going to end?
Just as his consciousness was about to be engulfed by the purple light, suddenly a burst of golden light appeared, and a ball of golden flame appeared, forcing the purple light back.

"It's that golden flame!"

Chen Ming understood something, turned his head and saw Yu Haitang flying towards him at high speed. The tender bud on her head became more and more ethereal and then disappeared.

Her aura also weakened, returning to the level of the third rank.

At this moment, half of Chen Ming's body had already sunk into the lava. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but in the end, all he could do was raise his hand, muster his last bit of inner energy, and strike out with a palm.

Live!
He was then completely engulfed by lava.
