Chapter 734: Suppressing A Demon (1/2)

Two of the greatest manmade treasures—the Sugato Sword and Skyturning Seal—had taken the stage at the same time and melded their auras together, forming one enormous entity of light and shadow that centered on the Venerated Sacrosanct Demonic Sovereign.

Skyturning Seal in Hand, the demonic sovereign smashed it down on the egg with the force of a thunderbolt originating from the cosmos itself.

Rumble!!

However, a great explosion rang out as a palm of searing red burrowed out from the ground, punching out powerfully at the treasure in the demonic sovereign’s hands.

Boom!

The hand exploded into a downpour of bloody mud, but the demonic sovereign was sent flying as well. The Skyturning Seal slipped from his hand, and even the Sugato Sword in midair was shaken by the impact.

Serpentine creatures that resembled blood vessels started swimming through the land around the chasm; it’d turned viscous and slimy like a bloody swamp. Or more precisely, it was the Ichor bog, the very one that’d been outside the Exalted Divine Tombs. It’d somehow made its way here as well.

“Aouuu aough aough aough!!” Bizarrely reformed, the fur seals that’d been smashed to pieces by the Skyturning Seal earlier popped back out of the swamp. The serpentine creatures swiftly latched onto them and stuck more than ten thousand fur seals together, creating a titanic member of their species.

The big fur seal, the king of fur seals.

As the Skyturning Seal meandered about in the air, a faint figure of green walked out of the void. This was a very fine-looking gentleman, one with chiseled features and a heroic air between his brows. Lanky and lean, a long robe of green drifted around him like a cool, refreshing breeze. He was plainly a Green Firmament powerhouse, one who’d made use of another special method to circumvent the immortal restriction’s detection.

“Lu Yun, the Demonic Sovereign Cauldron.” Unexpectedly, the newcomer addressed Lu Yun out of everyone present at the scene. “Combine the cauldron with its feet.”

“Eh?” Lu Yun blinked.

“Combining the two will awaken the demon god’s lingering fragment of true spirit in the cauldron. It will send his cultivation into disarray and temporarily prevent him from undergoing his tribulation.” The man in green spoke in measured, unflustered tones and projected a completely calm and collected attitude. “However, that will only keep him at bay for four hours. Use this time to enter the immortal emperor’s tomb and obtain the Immortal Subjugation Seal.”

“Alright!” Lu Yun nodded and flipped his hand, materializing the inky black cauldron and its three cauldron feet.

“The body of my past life!!” The demon god’s thoughts shook violently inside the egg. “Bring me the body of my past life!!”

“Aooough!!” roared the big fur seal and he charged as a bloody blur, bearing down on Lu Yun with a blazing demonic aura.

Wham!

The Venerated Sacrosanct Demonic Sovereign snarled in response, sending the Hadal Bonefire of his head leaping to new heights and commanding a vast billow of sword energy from the Sugato Sword. The resulting sea of swords blockaded the big fur seal from its target.

Hummm.

Black radiance sparkled and replaced everything within a hundred kilometer radius. A pair of crimson eyes slowly opened in the void, heralding the awakening of a magnificent demonic entity. They were cold, aloof, and bereft of any emotion. All of creation was naught but dust and grass to it.

Whoosh!

A pillar of black light soared to the heavens, carrying with it a revolving Demonic Sovereign Cauldron. Its three feet had been connected again and it’d somehow sprouted a projection of a pair of handles where there’d been none before.

One body, two handles, three feet… the cauldron was a weapon of the heavenly dao and symbolized that from dao came one, and one begat two, two gave birth to three, and from three resulted all living things.

As the demonic cauldron became whole again, an immense shadow grew in size and reached for the clouds. It surveyed the land with a terrifying demonic aura, even dispersing half of the tribulation clouds for the time being.
