Chapter 5376 Half-Step Devil Emperor
No, your master said the leader here is a half-step Devil Emperor, Long Chen said, looking at the ancient devil creature, who was radiating torrential devil qi.
So, this is a half-step Devil Emperor.
In the Eternal realm, there were six minor realms, but the Emperor realm was divided into two levels. The first was the Human Emperor realm, while the second was named after the race of the Emperor. For humans, they could be called Divine Emperors or Immortal Emperors due to the split of human cultivation into god and immortal paths.
For the devil race, they were called Devil Emperors, while the demon race called theirs Demon Emperors. Other beast races had their own branches too, for example the dragon races Dragon Emperors or the Peng races Peng Emperors.
However, the devil creature before them was not a true Devil Emperor; it had only just touched the boundary of the Emperor realm, earning the title of a half-step Devil Emperor. Even so, a single foot in this realm made it countless times stronger than a nine-vein Emperor, and its aura alone was enough to crush them.
Foolish humans, face your deaths! the half-step Devil Emperor exclaimed and raised its hand, causing heaven and earth to quiver.
Tang Wan-er and the others were instantly immobilized, unable to even twitch a finger. Everyone was horrified by the immense power of the half-step Devil Emperor, which left them utterly powerless to resist.
Hey, hold it! Old thing, as a half-step Devil Emperor, youre not supposed to be so blind, right? Long Chen hastily waved for the elder to stop.
The elders eyes flared with rage, but noticing Long Chen pointing upward, it followed his gaze and froze. Tribulation clouds had gathered in the sky, and its expression shifted.
Ive heard that someone on the verge of breaking through could accidentally trigger their own tribulation if they interfere with someone elses. How about we test that theory? Id love to see what a Devil Emperors tribulation looks like, Long Chen taunted.
The half-step Devil Emperor went pale. The torrential devil qi around it vanished as it suppressed its aura with all its might. If the tribulation were to lock onto its presence, it would be forced into a deadly tribulation it couldnt survive.
Though these devils were from beyond the heavens, generations of dwelling in the Sovereign Emperor Heaven meant they were bound by its laws, including heavenly tribulation. This was unavoidable.
Just as the elders aura receded, Evilmoon appeared in Long Chens hand, aimed straight at the elder.
Waning Moon Pierces the Dome of the Heavens!
A streak of black light shot from Evilmoons tip, striking the half-step Devil Emperor in the head. Although it cut to the bone, it wasnt enough for a fatal blow or even a serious wound.
Bastard! the half-step Devil Emperor roared furiously.
Long Chen had attacked just as it was suppressing its aura. If it hadnt activated its protective light in time, the attack would have pierced its skull.
Just as its fury exploded and it was about to attack, Long Chen pointed to the sky once more and made a gesture to be quiet.
At that moment, the tribulation clouds swelled, seemingly sensing the half-step Devil Emperors presence and threatening to change.
The elders face fell. If this tribulation transformed into its Devil Emperor tribulation, it would kill everyone in the area.
You wretched human, just you wait! the elder spat and fled, disappearing instantly.
The surrounding blood devils also scattered. This heavenly tribulation incited them a sense of immense fear, even making them abandon their stronghold.
Then, torrents of lightning struck the ground, leaving craters and turning hard rock to dust.
Sisters, this tribulation is fiercer than before, thanks to that old devils interference. But I know you can handle it! Long Chen shouted.
Last time, Lei Linger had collected the thunderforce just as it was about to dissipate, allowing the new Hidden Dragon warriors to be tempered by it. With that experience behind them, the Hidden Dragon warriors had managed to cast aside their fear of the heavens.
As for Long Chen, he let the lightning fall on him and flew toward a mountain, drawing the tribulations eye with him. This mountain was the core stronghold of the Fiend Wind Blood Devils. From there, he spotted an altar with over ten coffins.
Counting eighteen neatly placed coffins, Long Chen was delighted. The Wind God Sea Pavilions information really is accurate. Even the number of coffins is correct.
Long Chen went to one of the coffins and kicked it open, revealing a corpse inside. Devil qi immediately poured out of it.
Hahaha, yes! Long Chen laughed crazily.
This was the corpse of a half-step Devil Emperor. Long Chen had flipped through the books in the Wind God Sea Pavilion, and according to their records, these corpses came from half-step Devil Emperors who had failed their Devil Emperor tribulation and had their souls extinguished.
However, their physical bodies were left intact and were preserved here so the heavenly geniuses of the Fiend Wind Blood Devil race could use the corpses bloodline power to aid their own breakthroughs.
Long Chen tossed the corpse into the primal chaos spaces black soil. The moment it touched the soil, it was devoured.
The entire primal chaos space quivered as life energy surged forth, filling the space with vitality. In just a few short breaths, the primal chaos space was in its peak state. Furthermore, as this life energy filled it, the laws within the primal chaos space underwent a subtle transformation.
Ha! Ive struck gold this time! Long Chen shouted with glee as he kicked open the next coffin. But the moment he did, a hand shot out, filled with terrifying devil qi that shook the world.
