Chapter 173
Dark ocean’s mysterious flame, named ‘holy flame’ by the ocean tribe .
However, only a few of the ocean tribe had seen it before . As for where it was located, hardly any knew .
There was a rumor saying that the holy flame is located deep beneath the seabed . It is a baleful fire, flowing about under the dark ocean territory like lava .
Another rumor would be that the holy flame is a baleful fire, demonic creatures like the demonic knights are created from it .
These two rumors circulated for thousands of years, never been verified before .
Qin Tian dared to confirm one point, which was that the mysterious flame was not simply a ‘flame’ . There must be something else . Luo Hou becoming strong can’t only be because of a core of the mysterious flame, but something within it .
Luo Yue knew the location of the holy flame .
Of the few which survived, only the patriarch of the Luo Shi tribe knew .
Thousands of years ago, the Luo Shi tribe guarded the mysterious flame . At that time, Luo Yue accidentally found out about the location, changing his life forever .
The only reason why Luo Yue would accept Qin Tian’s request was because he wanted to kill . Being treated as a commoner, the anger of being suppressed for many years had finally erupted .
At that moment when he made a decision to leave, killing intent was being emitted . Not able to kill Luo Hou? Then kill some demonic knights at the very least . After all, anger needed an outlet to be released at . Otherwise, he would turn crazy leaving just like this .
Night, clouds covered the sky .
Two black shadows crawled along the seabed, silent and hidden from sight .
At the bottom of a mountain range, it was bright like day . Demonic knights were patrolling . Qin Tian knew that this night, a huge fight would break out .
[TLN: In case you’re wondering, it is a mountain in the ocean . ]
Amongst them was an enormous open area with an altar right in the middle . Around it was carvings, glowing with blood red light .
Hot air emerged from the altar like it was breathed out by a huge demonic creature . Immediately, the hot air was absorbed by a black cauldron .
The black cauldron vibrated . In less than half a minute, a twin blade demonic creature climbed out and hit the ground with a flop . Its skeleton then grew rapidly and its twin blade became harder . It went directly from rank 0 to rank 5 demonic monster .
All these happened in a few short minutes . Such a speed was simply inconceivable .
After being properly grown, two demonic knights came forward and threw a core at it . The twin blade demonic creature swallowed and it became a rank six demonic monster .
Creating demons?
Using the baleful force to rapidly create demonic creatures?
“F**k, what are they planning to do?” Qin Tian thought, “It can’t be that they want to create a large-scale counterattack right?”
If this carries on, the entire Tianyuan continent would not be able to fight against them .
A rank six demonic monster is very powerful, comparable to a rank nine spirit refining realm cultivator . Such a huge army of demonic monsters would pretty much be able to sweep across the entire continent .
The demon tribe wants revenge?
“So what about revenge . It doesn’t have much of relation to me anyways . ”
Qin Tian turned his head and saw Luo Yue in extreme anger . “Brother Luo……”
Luo Yue darted towards them like lightning striking down to earth .
He could not endure the demon tribe any longer .
The ocean tribe hated those of the demon tribe the most . No matter how much Luo Hou changed, he is someone of the ocean tribe . Luo Yue could still accept it if he went against because he wanted power . However, Luo Yue could not accept the fact that the demon tribe is controlling their dark ocean territory .
The ingrained hatred towards the demon tribe could not be suppressed .
Qin Tian frowned and sighed, “If I knew this would occur, I won’t have gotten you to lead the way . ”
Without a choice, Qin Tian activated his Qigong and ascension force was released . He stared at the valley filled with demonic monsters and laughed sinisterly, “I’ll just practice with you all then . ”
Black flame aura spread out and the Sky Piercing Lightning art was used……
“Rumble……”
Rays of light struck the valley, devastating it . Demonic monsters within a circumference of a thousand feet turned into dust .
The attack was so powerful that those monsters felt fear . However, that feeling flashed through their hearts before vanishing . Qin Tian felt refreshed from that kill and released another Heaven Submissive Lightning .
Again, the valley trembled .
As for Luo Yue, his eyes were bloodshot . Wielding a crimson trident, corpse piled up around him .
The rapid increase of experience points seemingly made Qin Tian neglect his surroundings, and did not notice the changes occurring at the altar .
“Shua, shua , shua ……”
Footsteps could be heard from deep within the valley . There was a pair of blood red eyes, looking like two red lanterns hung in the air . It gave off a ruthless kind of feeling .
It’s body was as big as a hill and it held a hammer as if it was a tank .
Before it appeared in Qin Tian’s line of sight, he had already sensed a strong pressure acting against his mind .
Peak rank nine demonic monster!
Qin Tian’s heart tightened . Previously, he managed to kill the rank nine monster only because it was gravely injured, else killing it would not be so simple .
“Rank 2 berserk . ”
“Emperor Purgatory . ”
The dragon elephant force guarded his mind . Under the 8 times attributes increase, Qin Tian’s aura became denser .
The rank nine demonic monster’s appearance was like light in their darkest moments . The other demonic monsters in the valley roared .
Qin Tian’s heart sank, what he feared was about to happen .
“Shua, shua, shua……”
More footsteps could be heard .
“Shua, shua, shua……”
Another rank nine demonic monster……
Hundreds of rank nine demonic monsters walked out from deep within the valley .
“Well, this is terrible . ” Qin Tian turned and stared at Luo Yue who was also stunned . “Brother Luo, hold them down for a while, I’ll go and harvest some mysterious flame . ”
“What?”
Luo Yue turned around, only to see that Qin Tian was gone and mumbled, “How do I hold them down?”
The strength of a group of rank nine demonic monsters was just too great, just the pressure they release make one uneasy . If Luo Yue was weaker, he would already be kneeling down .
“Hu……”
Luo Yue sighed and took a quick glance at the rank nine demonic monsters . Strength erupted from within him and he darted forward . His body seems as if it was ten times bigger .
The eruption of his strength made the low ranking demonic monsters near him growl as if they were afraid .
“Kill……”
Luo Yue cried out as he charged towards the rank nine demonic monsters .
______
Qin Tian brought his speed to his limits and flashed across the crowd of demonic monsters .
The altar was right in front of his eyes, but a black figure blocked him before he could reach .
Demonic knight .
However, this demonic knight was completely different from those he killed during the day . His baleful force was a hundred times greater .
“Blasphemy! Only by using your blood can your sin be cleaned . ”
Below him, is huge mount roared and charged towards Qin Tian .
“Mao Mao……”
“Battle mode!”
“Wu Ao……”
As Mao Mao charged towards the demonic knight, it leaped and cuddled up, becoming like a hammer .
The demonic knights roared and attacked .
Rumble!
The collision caused the valley to tremble .
“Little demon, Ensure Mao Mao’s safety . ”
“Understood . ”
Qin Tian said inwardly . The Demon Baby replied excitedly although he actually wanted to exit and attack . He wanted to try out the power of his 1st revolution realm .
With Mao Mao’s current strength, facing off with that demonic knight, it would definitely be able to last for a while . Moreover, with Demon Baby secretly protecting, Qin Tian was more assured .
With tens of thousands of demonic monsters, along with more than a hundred reaching rank nine, Qin Tian would not dare to stay for long no matter how big his guts were .
He needed to harvest some mysterious flame before leaving .
And who knows when the peak universe realm Luo Hou would appear .
Qin Tian felt his mind being attacked by an intense heat when he stepped onto the altar, and his dragon elephant force guarded him .
The azure dragon cried out and the colossus elephant trampled forth in his Dantian . The formless energy that suppressed evil erupted . His ascension force rushed out madly .
“Break for me!”
Qin Tian punched heavily at the altar filled with carvings .
“Peng!”
The altar cracked and rays of light shot out from within . The valley seemed to be trembling .
Qin Tian shouted again, “Break for Laozi!”
“Shua!”
Small pieces of the altar turned into dust . The trembling seemed to have worsened .
Qin Tian did not think much about that . All he thought about was that Luo Yue and Mao Mao would not be able to last too long .
The demonic monsters were enraged .
From within the valley, more rank nine demonic monsters came out . Luo Yue was surrounded by perils, how could he even hold down hundreds of rank nine demonic monsters?
“Qin Tian, I can still hold on……”
Luo Yue dodged a strike and shouted to Qin Tian who was on the altar .
“Shua!”
Then, a heavy blow landed on Luo Yue’s back, making him spit out blood .
He landed on the ground . Immediately, he got up and thrust his trident, “Laozi will kill you……”
“Break, break, break……”
Qin Tian was anxious . He punched the altar as fast as he could, and the number of rays of light shot out multiplied, brightening the entire valley .
Soon, the destruction of the altar of halfway completed . Seeing the fiery red flame, Qin Tian shouted inwardly, “Mysterious flame!”
“How could the flame move? Why does it seem like a snake?”
“Not right!”
Qin Tian was shocked . Bringing his speed to his limits, he jumped and rushed off .
“Wu~~~”
Inside the altar, the cry of a dragon was heard . A king’s aura covered the entire valley .
Right after that, the tens of thousands of demonic monsters got onto their stomach and worshiped .
Even those rank nine demonic monsters laid on the ground willingly with a face of reverence . Mao Mao could not help but do so too, it struggled but could do nothing .
Pressure, an overwhelming pressure .
When the cry vanished, the valley was silent .
“Brother Luo, be careful . ”
Before the storm was calmness .
“Rumble!”
A huge fiery dragon rushed out and spun around among the clouds .
“Mysterious Flame Dragon King”
“Otherworldly creature, status unknown……”
Qin Tian’s heart sank . The system was actually unable to analyze the fiery dragon’s status, only prompting that it is an ‘Otherworldly creature . ’ Could it be that the demon tribe’s saint realm demon drew down from the firmament was not a mysterious flame, but an almighty Dragon King!
“F**k me, could it be that tens of thousands of years ago, the flames that lasted for tens of years were spurred by it?”
“What mysterious flame ah?”
“It’s a f**king fiery dragon!”
Qin Tian finally understood that everyone was tricked for tens of thousands of years .
A creature from another world . An extreme being . Even if Qin Tian was in the absolute realm, he would probably not be a match too .
Immediately, he desired to escape .
“Brother Luo, run……”
Meanwhile, he kept Mao Mao back into his spatial ring and sprang out of the valley .
Luo Yue, knowing what happened, ran with no hesitation .
Such a creature wasn’t someone they could deal with .
As for the task, Qin Tian had already given up . He can’t help but want to drag the Fierce Sun Pillar master here and let him see what the task truly was about .
Dragon, aura of a king, extremely prideful .
With Qin Tian’s and Luo Yue’s speed, how could they surpass a Dragon King that can transverse a thousand Li with a thought?
Seeing the both of them running, the Flame Dragon King showed an expression of deep anger . It stared at Qin Tian . That was the human that disrupted his sleep . It roared and turned into a cloud of flames, chasing them .
How fast was the speed of that Flame Dragon King?
Even with eight more legs, Qin Tian’s speed would be of no match .
In less than half a breath’s time, Qin Tian felt a burning sensation at his back like it was being roasted . He really wanted to give the Fierce Sun Palace master a few slaps on the face, who can complete such a difficult task?
He cursed himself and showed a face in agony .
Though unable to escape, Qin Tian was not willing to just die . As the result, he cursed, “F**k your ancestors!”
“I’ll stake it all!”
