“Roar!” The scarlet flood dragon roared and spat out a pale green flame from its mouth. As a flood dragon, it seemed that it could also spew fire.

Its scarlet eyes stared at Ye Chen as it sensed danger.

This brat’s cultivation level was low, but his combat strength was simply astounding. It could not underestimate him.

Crack! Crack!

The fist destroyed the pale green flame of the flood dragon, and was about to hit the scarlet flood dragon’s head…

“Senior, please spare my life!” The scarlet flood dragon stared at the incoming fist in panic and shouted.

...
“I’m willing to follow you, Senior!”

Its huge dragon eyes stared at the incoming fist.

At this moment, it could finally feel Ye Chen’s true power. This fist contained the power of a third-level Semi Divine realm expert. How could it resist it?

If this brat could unleash this level of power at the eighth-level of the Daoyuan realm, who knew what his future accomplishments would be?

Following him was definitely a good opportunity!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The fist slowed to a halt.

“Since you’re willing to surrender, I’ll put a seal on you!” Ye Chen looked at the scarlet wyrm meaningfully and smiled.

“I’m willing to submit!” The scarlet flood dragon lowered its head and lay on the ground obediently. Its blood-red scales and limbs made it look like a four-legged snake. It could only be said to be an incomplete true dragon. Although its bloodline was not strong, its combat strength was decent. It was an eighth-level Supreme Emperor realm expert, but comparable to a second-level Semi Divine realm expert!

This was quite rare, even among 2,000-year-old cultivators.

Whoosh!

A Qiankun Sword Seal flew out and imprinted itself in the flood dragon’s mind.

Now that it had already been completely sealed, as long as it dared to have any rebellious thoughts, it would explode and die!

“Master, are you from a high-level martial plane? You’re so powerful!”

The scarlet flood dragon slowly crawled out from the mountain forest and came over to the Myriad Demon Stairs. “Master, even a fourth-level Semi Divine realm expert won’t be able to beat you, yet you’re only an eighth-level Daoyuan realm cultivator…”

“Which high-level martial plane are you from?”

“I want to follow you back!”

Its master’s foundation was too deep!

It had been residing on the Blood Demon Mountain for more than a thousand years, yet it had never seen such an exceptional genius. Even the master of the Blood Demon Mountain was not as strong as its master when he was at the eighth level of the Daoyuan realm!

Seeing the scarlet flood dragon’s attitude, the old man was shocked.

He had cultivated on the Myriad Demon Stairs here for decades, slowly increasing his blood essence and energy. He also wanted to obtain the spirit token. He muttered, “This person’s cultivation level is not high, yet he’s so powerful. He is the genius of his generation!”

This young man in front of him had the ability to cross dozens of minor realms. What sect did he come from?

“I’m not from a high-level martial plane. I’m from the nearby Kunlun Mountains!”

“Are there many like you in this Blood Demon Mountain?” Ye Chen asked.

“Master, I have been cultivating in the Blood Demon Mountain for over a thousand years, and there are many around here that are similar to me,” the scarlet flood dragon replied. “However, 1,700 years have passed, and no one has ever reached the top of the stairs. There might be even more powerful beasts guarding the higher steps!”

“However, even if you climb all of the hundred steps of the Myriad Demon Stairs, you might not get to see the master of the Blood Demon Mountain!”

“The master of the Blood Demon Mountain encountered a powerful enemy in the past, so he set up many formations on the top of the mountain!”

“Master, if you want to meet the master of the Blood Demon Mountain and obtain the spirit token, I’m afraid it will take immense effort!”

There had been people climbing the Myriad Demon Stairs over the years. However, the higher one went, the harder it would get. Not only would they have to withstand the waves of pressure, but also the sudden attacks of the surrounding demonic beasts. Of course, there were also some people who stopped at certain steps to cultivate. They used the Myriad Demon Stairs to temper themselves, slowly ascending the stairs over the years.

However, they did not dare to climb too high unless their strength increased significantly. Death was the only reward for recklessness!

Nine hundred years ago, a genius who had reached the sixtieth step had encountered a life threatening crisis when he was attacked by the waves of pressure and a horned dragon. Severely injured, he had no choice but to retreat. He was still recovering from his injuries, and would likely never be able to obtain the spirit token in his lifetime.

Countless geniuses had died on the Myriad Demon Staircase. With every step Ye Chen climbed, he would see dozens of skeletons and bones from dismembered limbs all around him.

Ye Chen pondered as he walked up, ‘Is there something wrong with the master of the Blood Demon Mountain?’

‘Why is he so dead-set on keeping these geniuses away, to the point where he has to kill so many of them? Is he suffering from some kind of trauma?’

When he reached the fifty-seventh step, he looked at the scarlet flood dragon beside him, who could barely withstand the waves of pressure here.

You cultivate here. Absorb the blood essence and energy here to cultivate. I’ll continue my ascent!”

“Sorry, Master!” The dragon’s scales were damaged, and golden blood flowed down the stairs. It was extremely weak. Although it was not attacked by the ferocious beasts, it was almost killed by the waves of pressure.

It stared at Ye Chen’s back as he continued to ascend the stairs. As expected, it was still too weak and was unable to follow Ye Chen up.

It had to work hard and break through so that when Ye Chen returned, he would take it along with him. This was its greatest opportunity, and it had to do its best to seize it!

Soon, the scarlet flood dragon began to cultivate diligently. Its damaged scales shattered and grew again and again to strengthen its physical body and life force. Increasing its strength and following Ye Chen had become its new goal.

Ye Chen arrived at the sixtieth step. Along the way, he saw seven or eight old men and young men. Most of them were ninth-level Supreme Emperor realm or half-step Semi Divine realm experts. They all had the ability to cross realms, but did not dare to go up.

He looked at the sixty-first step and the ferocious formation beasts standing around it. They were all half-step Semi Divine realm formation beasts.

“You think you can stop me with formation beasts of this level?” he said teasingly with a smile.

With that, Ye Chen unleashed a few Fists of Buddha and exhausted the lifespans of three half-step Semi Divine realm formation beasts. Then, he used his physical body to shatter the waves of pressure and stepped onto the sixty-first step.

The ascent continued!
