Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

During these three days, Ye Chen was completely unaware of the turmoil brewing in the outside world.

He was focused solely on seeking the opportunity to break through to the Tenth Layer of the Blood Coagulation Realm!

Besides the various resources from the Cold Wind Sect’s treasury, he also had Five-Element Pills at his disposal.

However, he decided not to use the Five-Element Pills just yet.

The Five-Element Pills were refined from his own blood and bone, combined with various Spirit Medicines. They were incredibly precious and astonishingly potent.

He planned to use such high-level treasured pills when it was time to condense his Spiritual Sea.

A powerful surge of qi and blood roiled through Ye Chen’s meridians.

A torrential wave of Evil Qi practically enveloped his entire body, shrouding his face in a strange, violet haze that made him impossible to see clearly.

”Hmm?”

Just then, Ye Chen suddenly noticed that the golden light in his sea of consciousness, which represented the Demon God’s Astonishing Record, seemed to be exerting some kind of pull.

Soon after, three smaller golden orbs of light appeared next to the Demon God’s Astonishing Record.

The three small orbs slowly revolved around the large one, like celestial bodies orbiting a sun, a truly astonishing sight.

’What’s going on?’

Ye Chen was a little surprised.

’If the large orb represents the Demon God’s Astonishing Record, then what do the smaller ones represent?’

He extended his consciousness and soon made contact with one of the small, glowing golden orbs.

’Wait... So that’s how it is.’

’Could these three orbs of light have actually evolved from those three Great Power skeletal remains?’

Ye Chen was stunned.

Back when he first started practicing the Demon God’s Astonishing Record, those three sets of Great Power skeletal remains, which seemed to be for a sacrifice, had also transformed into golden light along with the record and merged into his body.

At the time, Ye Chen had thought the three skeletons were merely nourishment, that only by sacrificing them would he have enough energy to break the seal on the Demon God’s Astonishing Record.

Who could have imagined that these three skeletal remains actually had such a profound origin?

They shared a common origin with the Demon God’s Astonishing Record, a connection as if they were of the same blood.

’These aren’t Great Power skeletal remains at all...’

’I’m afraid... these three sets of bones were taken from a true Ancient Demon God!’

A terrifying guess flashed through Ye Chen’s mind.

He couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath of cold air.

He immediately continued to direct his consciousness, trying to enter one of the three small orbs to investigate!

However, Ye Chen felt as if he had sunk into a mire.

After his consciousness touched the small orb, it could not advance an inch. A thin barrier seemed to have appeared before him, blocking his path.

’I can even cultivate the Demon God’s Astonishing Record, so why can’t I clearly perceive what’s inside these three small orbs?’

’What in the world is inside?’

Ye Chen frowned, feeling both shocked and uncertain.

He could feel that whatever was inside wasn’t rejecting him.

On the contrary, because he cultivated the Demon God’s Astonishing Record, the three small orbs actually felt intimately connected to him, like limbs on the same body.

The reason he couldn’t see what was inside the small orbs seemed to be his lack of strength.

’My strength...’

’Do I need an even higher realm to break the barrier inside the orbs?’

Ye Chen’s eyes flickered.

He wondered if the Spirit Sea Realm would be enough.

’I’ll try again when I start condensing my Spiritual Sea.’

For now, the priority was to step into the extreme state of the Blood Coagulation Realm!

Ye Chen steadied his mind, preparing to give his all to break through the final barrier of the Blood Coagulation Realm.

But then he discovered that while he had been completely engrossed in those three small orbs, he had naturally broken through to the extreme state of the Blood Coagulation Realm.

BOOM!

A terrifying aura instantly soared toward the heavens, filling the entire treasury!

If Ye Chen hadn’t desperately suppressed his aura, the entire Cold Wind Sect’s mountain gate would have likely been affected!

Even so, a wave of profound and mysterious energy still spread out to the heavens.

Above, in the blue sky, what was once a vast, clear expanse was suddenly filled by the appearance of a terrifying demonic silhouette!

The silhouette was colossal, towering between heaven and earth. Even the most massive mountain peaks were but grains of dust beneath its feet.

It stretched across the sky, obscuring the sun and casting the entire Eastern Wilderness into its shadow.

Darkness fell in all directions; the world was plunged into gloom!

If this continued, an atmosphere of terror would soon spread throughout the entire Cultivation Realm of the Eastern Wilderness!

However, the demonic silhouette appeared for only a brief instant before vanishing without a trace.

It didn’t even last for the blink of an eye.

Like a hallucination, it disappeared the moment it appeared.

As a result, many low-level Cultivators didn’t even notice its existence.

They only felt the sky darken for a moment, and by the time they looked up, everything was back to normal.

’What was that?’

Even a powerful Spirit Sea Realm Cultivator like Shen Yanyue merely dismissed it as a trick of her own mind. The astonishment on her face lasted for only a moment before she returned to normal.

Only the true Great Power Level figures personally felt it: that terrifying trace of Demonic Qi that seemed to have flowed from the Primordial Chaos of ancient times!!!

’This aura...’

In the depths of Thunder City, a figure exuding a terrifying aura suddenly opened his eyes.

His entire body was shrouded in blazing electric light, his might heaven-shaking and utterly astounding.

But at this moment, his face was filled with shock, his heart with disbelief!

’Could it be that a dormant Demon God has awakened?’

’No! That’s impossible! The calamity in ancient times already caused all the Demon Gods to perish. No matter how vast their Divine Techniques were, there couldn’t be any survivors!’

Meanwhile, beyond Lei Province, within the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.

In a sprawling palace complex, an old man on the verge of death sat up in his bed.

As his cloudy eyes opened and closed, a boundless Evil Qi seemed to sweep out, alarming the entire palace!

”Is that the Supreme Elder?”

”What’s happening? Didn’t the Supreme Elder go into seclusion long ago, planning to challenge the extreme realm in the final moments of his life to gain more vitality?”

”Could he have broken through?”

For a moment, the people in the palace were overcome with ecstasy.

”This world... is about to change.”

However, the old man paid no heed to the clamor outside.

He simply gazed quietly at the horizon, muttering to himself.

...

”Is this the aura of a Demon God?”

”It seems our Demonic Path is finally going to rise!”

Within a demonic mountain shrouded in roiling Evil Qi, several terrifying figures awoke from their slumber. They who had long since withdrawn from the world were now filled with excitement.

...

In the imperial capital of the Great Hong Dynasty.

In the deepest part of the imperial palace, the Human Emperor looked up, his expression unreadable.

’Is a catastrophe for the Human Race about to arrive?’
