It flew backwards with that force.
Rumble!
The earth was plowed by the flying corpse, leaving a bottomless ravine that stretched for tens of thousands of feet before finally coming to rest embedded in the hard volcanic rock. The Corpse Demon Clan expert who was controlling the corpse in the sky spat out a mouthful of blood, his face filled with deep horror.
"who?!"
The Corpse Demon Clan expert stared in horror at the figure that had suddenly appeared in front of the two, and shouted a question.
The middle-aged man and the old man, who had thought they were going to die, were now standing there in shock, staring blankly at the figure standing in front of them.
"I didn't expect to encounter members of the Corpse Demon Clan so soon after arriving. Looks like I'm in luck..."
The person who came was naturally Ye Chen, who had come to the Burning Sky Mountains to gather information.
He originally intended to investigate the environment of the Burning Heaven Mountains after arriving there, but he never expected to encounter the Corpse Demon Clan deep within them...
This also proves that the Burning Sky Mountain Range has probably been largely occupied by extraterrestrial evil races. If I want to take over this place, the first thing I need to do is to wipe out those extraterrestrial evil races.
Looking up, Ye Chen gazed at the demonic corpse that had been summoned back by the Corpse Demon Clan. Judging from its appearance, it was the remains of a Heavenly Sovereign from a Great Thousand World. It had actually been forcibly refined into a demonic corpse by the other party, which made a hint of killing intent appear in Ye Chen's eyes.
Then, some information about the Corpse Demon Clan came to mind...
The Corpse Demon Clan is one of the thirty-two major evil clans from beyond the realm, and is far stronger than the Blood Demon Clan, the Corrosion Demon Clan, and others.
Furthermore, it is rumored that this race possesses the ability to manipulate corpses and draw power from them. The corpse energy they cultivate is entirely different from spiritual energy; it is extremely domineering and vicious, and once it erodes a person's life force, it is swiftly stripped away…
The old man whose body was half withered must have been caused by the corpse energy entering his body. It is likely that as time goes by, his entire body will be corroded by the corpse energy, and he will eventually become a bloodthirsty demon corpse.
"A supreme being from the Great Thousand Worlds..."
When the Corpse Demon saw Ye Chen, the shock in his expression completely disappeared. Instead, his dark eyes stared intently at him, even revealing a greedy look.
"Your body seems very powerful. If I were to refine it into a demonic corpse, it would definitely greatly increase my strength..."
Even if the other party's level is higher than his own, this person does not feel at all that the other party can defeat him.
He was just a Heavenly Sovereign, and it wasn't like I hadn't encountered him before, or even killed him... Wasn't this demonic corpse beside me the best proof?
The middle-aged man and the old man could also figure this out, so the two who had come to their senses immediately said, "Sir, hurry up and leave! This person is the Grand Commander of the Corpse Demon Clan, and he has a Heavenly Sovereign-level demon corpse to assist him. He is in great danger!"
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded gently.
The great leader of the Corpse Demon Clan, no wonder he was able to kill the Heavenly Supreme while at the peak of the Demon King realm.
For the powerful clans among these extraterrestrial evil races, their Demon King realm experts can completely crush the Earthly Sovereigns of the Great Thousand Worlds. Unless the Earthly Sovereign has also cultivated top-tier peerless divine abilities or possesses a high-ranking Sovereign Dharma Body, they simply have no power to resist.
However, once they encounter Ye Chen, even a Demon Emperor cannot escape his grasp...
"I just happened to get some information about the extraterrestrial evil races here from you..."
Thinking this to himself, Ye Chen raised his hand and gently pressed down on the position of the Corpse Demon Clan's Grand Commander...
In an instant, countless starlight descended from the sky, transforming into a vast galaxy that directly enveloped the Corpse Demon Clan's Grand Commander and the Heavenly Supreme Demon Corpse he controlled.
"Roar! Suppress me? No way!"
! ”
Amidst the starlight, the Corpse Demon Clan's Grand Commander, upon realizing what had happened, was filled with shock and anger, never expecting the other party to be so arrogant and conceited.
After a roar, the terrifying corpse energy around him erupted instantly, directly blocking the starlight in the sky.
The demonic corpse that had been standing beside it also let out a silent cry, then its body instantly swelled up, directly unleashing the demonized Heavenly Venerable Dharma Form...
Unfortunately, this burst of power might be very troublesome for other Heavenly Sovereigns, and even a Celestial Sovereign might not be able to suppress it.
Ye Chen's expression remained completely unchanged. He simply clenched his fist, and then both the Heavenly Venerable Dharma Form of the Demon Corpse and the Corpse Demon Clan's Great Leader's corpse energy eruption were suppressed by the destructive power in the starlight and completely sealed away...
Because he needed to obtain some information from the other party, Ye Chen did not kill them directly. Instead, he sealed them away and then handed them over to his mother-in-law in his star field space to prepare.
After doing all this, Ye Chen looked down at the two people below, frowned, and stepped directly to the old man's side. He looked at the corpse energy constantly invading the old man's body, raised his hand, and injected a pure Star Destruction Power into the old man's body...
puff!
As the destructive power entered his body, the old man coughed up a mouthful of pitch-black blood.
Then a black aura of death emanated from its pores, which was then completely annihilated and dissipated by Ye Chen's destructive power.
"Thank you for saving me, sir!"
Feeling the disappearance of the corpse energy within his body, the old man immediately bowed down to Ye Chen with a look of joy.
Ye Chen raised his hand to stop the other party, and said calmly, "No need. As fellow beings of the Great Thousand Worlds, how could I stand by and watch you die... However, your body has been corroded by the corpse energy for too long, and it probably won't be easy for you to recover. Here is a Rejuvenation Pill, which should be helpful for your recovery..."
This Rejuvenation Pill is a high-grade elixir from the legendary Shennong, containing extremely strong vitality, and it has a miraculous effect on the old man's current condition.
This not only delighted the old man, but also the middle-aged man beside him. The two exchanged a glance and bowed to Ye Chen, saying, "We are willing to serve under you, sir, and will be loyal to you to the death!"
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, not expecting the two to willingly acknowledge him as their master... This kind of thing is very difficult for a powerhouse at the Great Perfection of the Earthly Sovereign realm to do.
Ye Chen looked at the two and was quite satisfied with their strength. After all, they were capable of fighting against the extraterrestrial evil race, and were no less than half-step Heavenly Sovereigns like the Sect Master of the Purple Cloud Sect...
"Have you thought this through? If you come with me, you'll have to follow my will in everything, or don't blame me for being ruthless!" Ye Chen asked again.
The old man spoke again: "My brother and I have thought it through. Our master's will is our mission. If we disobey, we are willing to die!"
The middle-aged man immediately echoed, "I'd gladly die!"
Seeing this, Ye Chen nodded and then asked, "Alright then. From now on, you'll be working for me. But first, let me introduce your identities..."
Chapter 608 The Uprising at Burning Heaven Mountain
The Azure Demon Continent is a medium-sized continent in the northern part of the Great Thousand World. It is home to the Azure Demon Sect, a unique hegemon with seven Great Perfection Earthly Sovereign experts who are known as the "Seven Saints of Azure Demon".
The two people in front of Ye Chen were Qingmo, the eldest of the Seven Saints of Qingmo, and Heimu, the fourth. As for the other five saints, they had all perished at the hands of the Corpse Demon Clan.
"I never imagined that the Seven Sages of the Azure Demon and the Corpse Demon Clan had such a grudge..." Ye Chen felt a little emotional after hearing the Azure Demon's introduction.
The Seven Sages of the Azure Demon are quite renowned in the Great Thousand World. After all, they are seven Great Perfection Earthly Sovereigns, and they are also fellow disciples. In the hundred years since their rise to power, many people have been very interested in their origins.
Unexpectedly, they were both disciples of the Azure Demon Celestial Venerable from five hundred years ago, and that Azure Demon Celestial Venerable was killed by a Corpse Demon Clan expert, whose corpse was even controlled by the expert!
"Master, you just suppressed that Corpse Demon Clan's Grand Commander. I wonder..." The Green Demon, whose body was still half human and the other half a dried corpse, looked at Ye Chen and asked cautiously.
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Chen guessed what he meant and asked, "You mean the body of the Azure Demon Celestial Venerable? No problem, after I get the information I need from the Corpse Demon Clan, I will hand over the body to you... However, the remains of the Azure Demon Celestial Venerable have already been refined into a demonic corpse. To be on the safe side, let's burn it with divine fire before burying it."
"Thank you, Master!" the two brothers, Qingmo and Heimu, said gratefully.
Next, Ye Chen led the two to the depths of the Burning Heaven Mountains. After finding a secluded spot, he left them a large amount of Supreme Spiritual Liquid to help them recover. He himself then returned to the Demon King's Palace in the Star Domain to visit his mother-in-law...
After such a long period of refinement, the Demon King's Palace, which was originally snatched from the Demon King of the Eclipse Demon Clan, has been completely refined by Su Lingyin into her own Demon Emperor's artifact. Although she is currently only a primary Nether Demon Emperor, with the blessing of this Demon Emperor's Palace, she can even fight against intermediate Nether Demon Emperors.
Moreover, Ye Chen felt that the Devouring Spirit Clan's terrifying devouring ability was extremely abnormal, somewhat like the Devouring Demon Clan, one of the thirty-two major clans among the extraterrestrial evil races...
Think back to the Nine Corpse Demon Emperor we encountered in the ancient Heavenly Palace. He was able to merge the nine Demon Emperors into one. This ability is somewhat like a super-enhanced version of the Devouring Spirit Clan.
Inside the Demon Emperor's Palace after his ascension, Ye Chen looked at his mother-in-law sitting on the throne and asked, "Mother-in-law, did you obtain any useful information from that Corpse Demon Clan member?"
Su Lingyin can devour souls and even read the memories within them, which is far superior to any form of torture or forced confession.
"Take it..."
A ball of white light emerged from Su Lingyin's fingertips like flowing water, which she then tossed directly to Ye Chen.
"These are the memories I extracted from that person's soul; everything you want to know is inside."
"Thank you!" Ye Chen's eyes lit up, and he directly took the soul light.
However, Ye Chen didn't read it immediately. Instead, he looked at Su Lingyin again and said, "I'm currently at the northernmost point of the Great Thousand World, where I meet the extraterrestrial evil race. I'm going to clean up those extraterrestrial evil race members, and I'm afraid I'll need my mother-in-law's help..."
Su Lingyin wasn't surprised and nodded directly, asking, "What do you want me to do?"
"It's simple, just bring me more prey from the extraterrestrial demons..."
Now that I've come to the Burning Heaven Continent, I naturally need to establish my authority to prevent those extraterrestrial evil races from causing trouble at every turn. So I'll just give them a ruthless start from the beginning, slaughter them until the heavens are stained with blood, and make those evil demons tremble at the mere mention of my name!
This was not a difficult task for Su Lingyin. She could even cooperate with Ye Chen to trick a few Demon Emperors and then devour them to increase her strength.
"Okay, just let me know when you're ready."
After briefly discussing the details, Ye Chen didn't linger and left the Demon Emperor's Palace directly.
From the memories of the Corpse Demon Clan's Grand Commander, Ye Chen gained a fairly comprehensive understanding of the extraterrestrial evil race's power in this region...
Within this northern border, besides the Corpse Demon Clan, there are also the Devouring Demon Clan and the Blood Demon Clan, which belong to the Thirty-Two Great Clans. There are also many other clans that are second only to the Thirty-Two Great Clans, such as the Flame Demon Clan, the Evil Demon Clan, and the Ghost Clan. As for other smaller demon clans, there are countless others.
What Ye Chen didn't expect was that there were actually three Xuanmo Emperors and several Youmo Emperors stationed here, clearly eyeing the Great Thousand World with covetous intent...
As for the even stronger Heavenly Demon Emperors, they are just like the late-stage Saint-level Heavenly Sovereigns in the Great Thousand World. They usually stay in their own territory and cultivate diligently. Unless they encounter the Great Thousand Alliance that happens once every thousand years, they rarely pay attention to things outside.
After all, the extraterrestrial evil race knew very well that this was their only chance to seize the entire Great Thousand World. If they were stopped by the Great Thousand World again, as they had the first time, their chances would be even slimmer in the future. Therefore, they had to accumulate enough power before that!
And this, in turn, gave the world an opportunity...
"Corpse Demon Fortress, the largest war fortress of the Corpse Demon Clan on the northern border, has three Nether Demon Emperors and hundreds of Demon Kings... In that case, let's use them as our breakthrough point first."
After careful consideration, Ye Chen decided to target the Corpse Demon Clan, who held the most prominent position, as his primary objective.
Of course, there's no need to rush into action now, since we're not free to do anything on our end yet...
In the time that follows, Ye Chen plans to first thoroughly perfect his Myriad Flames Exquisite Pagoda.
At the very center of the Burning Heaven Continent stands an endless, terrifying mountain—the Burning Heaven Mountain that created this continent…
The area of Burning Heaven Mountain alone is larger than that of the Northern Boundary. Its violent fire-attribute spiritual power is so great that even Earthly Sovereigns who accidentally enter this place cannot suppress the surge of spiritual energy within their bodies, thus turning it into a true forbidden land for living beings.
Inside this terrifying doomsday volcano, amidst a fiery red world of lava, Ye Chen sat cross-legged. Before him, a golden pagoda slowly rotated, absorbing the surrounding dense and violent spiritual energy at an alarming rate.
The Golden Pagoda has twenty-three floors, each with a flame of a different color burning on it. On the highest floor, the twenty-third floor, is the blood-red giant that the Fire Spirit Ancestor once controlled. Even though it is bound inside the tower, it is still struggling restlessly. Its aura is even more terrifying than the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, which has already become a Heavenly Sovereign!
"Blood Demon, will you not submit?"
Looking at the trapped, blood-red figure, Ye Chen said in a deep voice.
"Roar, you despicable humans! I will never be used by you again!" The crimson figure roared at Ye Chen, showing great resistance.
&
Ye Chen shook his head helplessly. This time, he had been slightly tricked by that Fire Spirit Ancestor.
No one knows how the Fire Spirit Clan managed to subdue this flame in the first place. After I seized it, the Fire Spirit Ancestor secretly released its control over my intelligence, causing the flame to erupt...
Fortunately, the Ten Thousand Fire Exquisite Pagoda was powerful enough to prevent the guy from breaking out of the pagoda immediately; otherwise, Ye Chen would have had to put in a lot of effort.
"Then I'll have no choice but to extinguish your intelligence..."
Although doing this will prevent my Myriad Flames Exquisite Pagoda from reaching the perfect level of a top-tier holy artifact like the Heavenly Emperor Sword, it will be more than enough even as an ordinary holy artifact. At worst, I can find a stronger flame to enhance it later.
"Don't even think about it! You won't succeed. I will never let you erase my mind!"
After hearing Ye Chen's words, the blood-red figure resisted even more fiercely, and Ye Chen even felt that the Myriad Flames Exquisite Pagoda in front of him began to emit a series of buzzing sounds...
"Hmph, that's not up to you!"
Ye Chen also lost his patience, his face turned slightly cold, and his hands quickly changed hand seals in front of his chest. Then, the Myriad Fire Exquisite Pagoda shone brightly with golden light, and the twenty-two powerful strange fires on the twenty-two floors below rose up at the same time, finally converging into a glass-colored flame, which instantly invaded the twenty-third floor.
"roar……!
! ”
Sensing the threat posed by the glazed flames, the blood-red figure let out a roar, and the blood flames around him erupted at the same time, directly stalemate with the glazed flames.
Seeing this, Ye Chen's eyes gleamed, and he couldn't help but reveal a look of excitement on his face...
As expected of an existence that the Fire Spirit Clan has always worshipped as their ancestral divine fire, it is indeed so powerful that even my fused strange fire can only fight it to a draw...
Keep in mind that this was all under the suppression of the Myriad Flames Exquisite Pagoda!
Although Ye Chen could gradually wear down the other party's intelligence by persisting in this way, it would take too much time. So Ye Chen directly released his natal divine fire, the Three Thousand Starry Sky Fire, which had been tempered and evolved countless times!
When the purplish-black starfire, containing infinitely terrifying destructive power, was added, the blood-red flames that were originally able to resist were immediately suppressed. No matter how violently the blood-red figure roared, it could not stop the erosion of the glazed flames...
Just as Ye Chen was about to completely suppress and annihilate the blood-red figure, suddenly, the magma world around Ye Chen instantly boiled over...
The entire earth trembled, and the sea of lava beneath our feet directly unleashed towering waves of lava, with boundless heat surging from the deepest part of the earth.
"Oh no! Is Burning Heaven Mountain about to erupt?!"
Even Ye Chen was taken aback at this moment.
The Burning Heaven Mountain has not erupted for tens of thousands of years. According to ancient legends, the next time the Burning Heaven Mountain erupts will be the day of destruction!
Is it possible that before that so-called Heavenly Evil God even revives, a volcano will destroy the world first?
Just outrageous!
