Supreme Devouring God

Chapter 374: Chapter 374: The Five Blood Kings Strike!

”What’s wrong?”

At this moment,

Zhao Tengqi saw Qin Chen’s astonished expression upon seeing the image of the key, which left him somewhat puzzled.

Upon hearing Zhao Tengqi’s question, Qin Chen did not respond.

Instead, he just thought for a moment and took out a pure gold box from the God Devouring Crystal.

This box was what Qin Chen had obtained from Yiu Hai’s Qiankun Bag after he had killed him.

In front of Zhao Tengqi and the others, Qin Chen opened the box.

Instantly,

a key, identical to the one in the image, appeared in front of them.

”Is this... the key to the Sea Sky Treasure Vault?”

Upon seeing this key,

Zhao Tengqi and Lin Songyun were both slightly agape, their eyes filled with astonishment.

Obviously,

they had never dreamed

that Qin Chen would have the key to the Sea Sky Treasure Vault in his possession.

”So this key really is the key to the Sea Sky Treasure Vault...” Qin Chen muttered to himself.

When Qin Chen had first obtained the key, he only knew that it might not be simple, but he didn’t know its specific purpose.

Later, Qin Chen had speculated that it might be the key to the Sea Sky Treasure Vault.

But he had never been able to confirm this.

Now, upon seeing the image of the key, Qin Chen immediately confirmed it.

That key really was the key to entering the Sea Sky Treasure Vault.

No wonder!

No wonder Shen Fei had gone through so much trouble to try to take this key back from Qin Chen.

Perhaps the subsequent series of attacks were not just about killing him.

This key also played a significant part.

After all,

the treasures inside the Sea Sky Treasure Vault were not only attractive to Qin Chen, but even to beings like Ding Hao.

To be honest,

Qin Chen hadn’t expected this key to be so valuable.

He also didn’t know how Yiu Hai had obtained this key initially.

It must have been through a series of fortuitous coincidences.

But in the end, it had fallen into his own hands.

”Qin Chen, I didn’t expect that you had already obtained a key to the Sea Sky Treasure Vault.”

”This is good; if a key to the Sea Sky Treasure Vault appears in the Sea Sky Divine Palace next, Song Yun and I can compete for it,” Zhao Tengqi said with a smile.

Qin Chen nodded.

If a key really did appear, then Qin Chen would definitely do his utmost to contend for that key on behalf of Zhao Tengqi and Lin Songyun.

Very soon.

Two days slowly passed.

During these two days, the key did not appear.

According to Zhao Tengqi,

every time the Sea Sky Divine Palace opened, a different number of Sea Sky Treasure Vault keys would appear.

The timing, location, and quantity of the keys were all different.

In history, there had even been instances where not a single key appeared within seven days.

So,

even though there were only three days left until the Sea Sky Divine Palace closed,

it was quite normal that the key had not yet appeared.

However,

although the key had not appeared,

in these two days, Qin Chen had encountered quite a few opportunities.

The greatest of these opportunities was obtaining over a hundred two-star Spiritual Medicines, Purple Lightning Fruit.

With these hundred or so Purple Lightning Fruits, Qin Chen had also successfully advanced his Cultivation.

His Cultivation reached the Late Stage of Earth Origin First Layer.

As for Zhao Tengqi and Lin Songyun,

with the help of the Six Blood Heavenly Ganoderma provided by Qin Chen, they successfully broke through from the late stage of Yuan Condensation Seventh Realm to the eighth realm.

Furthermore,

Qin Chen and the others fortuitously acquired some Telekinesis Element Fruits.

With the aid of these fruits, Zhao Tengqi also successfully solidified his Third Layered Thought Sea and advanced to the early stage of a Three-star Telekinesis Master.

His strength was comparable to a Martial Artist of the Second Layer of Earth Origin.

This Sea sky Divine Palace truly deserved to be an Ancient Relic.

Though it had been opened more than ten times, there were still many undiscovered opportunities within.

In just two days, Qin Chen and his companions experienced significant enhancements.

However,

the only thing that made Qin Chen feel uneasy was,

he constantly felt like someone was following him.

Yet, he hadn’t seen any figures.

This feeling filled Qin Chen with suspicion and doubt about whether his senses were deceiving him.

In reality,

in an area beyond the reach of Qin Chen’s telekinesis,

the Blood Emperor and others had been following Qin Chen and his companions for two days.

Qin Chen’s sensation of being followed was indeed not an illusion.

”There are only three days left before the Sea Sky Divine Palace closes.”

”Originally, I planned to make a move after those two individuals by Qin Chen’s side left.”

”But now it seems, the three of them are unlikely to separate.”

”Since that’s the case, Xie Yan, Xie Ji, Xie Xiao, you three, thoroughly scout the surroundings to see if there’s anyone around.”

The Blood Emperor, having made up his mind, instructed the three Blood Kings behind him.

”Yes.”

The three called by the Blood Emperor promptly nodded and then disappeared from the area to scout around.

Among the three called by the Blood Emperor, both Xie Yan and Xie Ji were Martial Artists with the Four Levels of Earth Origin cultivation.

Even though Xie Xiao was at the Third Layer, he was at the peak of this realm.

Their power ranked among the strongest of the Five Blood Kings.

With their strength, the Blood Emperor felt most assured having them as scouts.

In no time at all, Xie Yan and the others returned.

”The surrounding area has been scouted, within a radius of hundreds of thousands of meters, there’s no one around; we can proceed with the ambush,” Xie Yan reported.

”Good.”

Upon hearing Xie Yan’s report, the Blood Emperor nodded grimly.

”Xie Yan, Xie Ji, Xie Xiao, the three of you are the strongest. After we initiate the attack, you must ensure that Qin Chen is eliminated within a moment!”

”Any problems?”

The Blood Emperor looked toward Xie Yan and the others.

”No problems.”

Xie Yan and the others nodded.

The combined might of the three of them could instantly kill someone, not only a Martial Artist at the First Level of Earth Origin like Qin Chen but potentially even at the Fourth Layer.

For them, killing a First Layer Earth Origin Martial Artist posed no considerable difficulty.

”Xie Peng, Xie Zhi, your targets are the two Yuan Condensation realm Martial Artists by Qin Chen’s side.”

”Any problems?”

The Blood Emperor once again looked towards the other two of the Five Blood Kings.

”No problems.”

Xie Peng and the others also nodded.

Their cultivation was at the Third Layer of Earth Origin, and although their power was less than that of Xie Yan’s group, killing the two Yuan Condensation Martial Artists would be much easier for them than for Xie Yan’s group to kill Qin Chen.

”Remember, it has to be a one-hit kill.”

”Do not cause too much commotion!”

The Blood Emperor reminded sternly.

”Yes.” All five Blood Kings nodded.

”Go,” the Blood Emperor nodded at the Five Blood Kings.

The Five Blood Kings hesitated no longer.

Their gaze instantly locked on Qin Chen’s location.

Then, their cultivation...erupted explosively!

Their speed, like thunder, charged directly toward Qin Chen and his two companions!
