Chapter 875 - Ancient Demon Prince (1/2)
“Phew!”
Howling wind came up, blowing loose the Qi of Four Righteousness that remained in the wreckage of the Two World Peak. The barrier that kept the worlds appart was covered with holes, the result of the onslaught between Chen Fan and the ancient demons.
Meanwhile, in the firmament, bodies of ancient demons had piled up; the battle cruisers were all but gone other than the flags.h.i.+p of the Royal family.
Chen Fan held one blade in one hand and stood in front of the bronze-colored behemoth, his gaze colder than ice and a face harder than stone. Quietly, he looked on at the demonic construction.
“He is too powerful! He is like an Asura reincarnate.”
The remaining Ancient Demons felt their hearts drop to the bottom.
A few hundred battle cruisers, over a hundred thousand Ancient Demons veterans, over a dozen late-stage golden core Fiend Generals, and five silver armored high ranking Fiend Generals were not enough to stop Chen Fan and his blade.
There was only one thought in the demons’ minds.
“He is the stuff of legend!”
“Legend has it that some extraordinary warriors in the infinity realities could topple an entire race with ease. I had never believed it, but now I do. What have we gotten ourselves into?”
The last silver-armored Fiend General trembled in fear.
He was a mighty warrior among his peers, a force to be reckoned with on the Planet Tianhuang. However, he could not even withstand one strike from Chen Fan’s blade. He had witnessed the downfall of his peers, and how easily they fell under Chen Fan’s attack.
“Master Divine Child is our only hope now.”
The Fiend General turned around and looked at the bronze s.h.i.+p.
The Royal family were considered invincible among the ancient demons. The Divine Child had never let them down when it came to crus.h.i.+ng their enemies.
His thoughts were shared by the survivors of Chen Fan’s slaughter.
They all looked over to the flags.h.i.+p.
The bronze s.h.i.+p had turned into the beacon of hope for the entire Ancient Demons race.
“Squeak!”
Under many expectant eyes, a gate on the s.h.i.+p cracked open and a foot emerged.
“Boom!”
The foot was encased in a heavy boot made out of Dark Demon Iron. A terrible shock wave was burst out from the bottom of the sole, shaking the Two World Peak.
The world trembled under his feet!
All the demons and fiends present got down to their hands and knees; their hearts were filled with fearful reverence. The demon army kowtowed to the s.h.i.+p and shouted fanatically.
“Lord Divine Child!”
“That’s the Demon Prince. He is of pure Royal Blood, the descendent of the ancient demon Kings. He possesses the Bloodline of G.o.ds. Even the mountains tremble under his feet, I wonder how Chen Beixuan will fare against him.”
Zhao Juexian furrowed his brow.
Among the Ancient Demon race, their hierarchies went like this: Connate Cultivators filled the ordinary demon soldier ranks, Golden Core cultivators were called Fiend Generals, while those who had reached the Nascent Soul realm were called Fiend Commanders. Only those who had attained the Soul Formation were granted the t.i.tle of Grand Cultivators and were called Ancient Demon Kings.
He was of pure blood from the Royal family, therefore he had to be a descendant of Ancient Demon Kings.
The descendants of the Ancient Demon Kings were born with extraordinary powers. They could become Heavenly Lord Essence Neonate as soon as they reached adulthood. It was said that only the Divine Prince from the Divine Sect could stand a chance against an Ancient Demon King.
“Dong!”
The Ancient Demons’s Divine Child finally revealed himself.
His body was encased in a solid armor made out of black iron, emblazoned with dreadful designs, each a symbol of a terrifying power. His face was youthful and his skin was smooth and pale, unlike the scaly hide that covered the other demons. He was of average height, but his frame was elongated by the two enormous wings and two horns that were curled inward. His eyes were red, which had a metallic sheen.
His presence was sending an energy wave ten times stronger than the one that was felt before. It weighed heavily on the world, trying to break the sky.
Everything under the influence of that weight started to tremble and some outright exploded. Eventually, the weight tore open the barrier between realities and created a black hole filled with deadly storms.
“I am impressed, human. You have killed many of my brethren. Your blood is stronger than those from the two women. I will tear you apart with my bare hands. Your death will be a sacrifice to our great Demon G.o.d who granted me unthinkable powers.”
Disdain filled the crimson eyes of the Ancient Demon Prince as he spoke.
He was speaking the most primordial demonic language, and his timbre carried an icy tone that could chill a human’s bones.
“Is that so? I shall use your blood to create the Heavenly Elixir. You are of pure demon blood, quite a rare find.”
Chen Fan cracked a thin smile.
The Ancient Demon’s Royal family were the demon world’s equivalent of the Divine Prince. His blood could be more powerful than that of a Divine Beast. Chen Fan could use it to create another divine grade Golden Core.
“You are courting death.”
Ancient Demon’s gaze grew cold.
He reached out with one arm as a glittering dark blade appeared in his hand out of nowhere. This blade was slender and its body was covered with patterns similar to that on the black armor.
