In the desert, a giant golden scorpion that was tens of thousands of feet long was unleashing its might. The giant scorpion’s aura soared and it finally broke through to level 4 of the Supreme Sage realm.
“Haha, as expected of a roc with the golden-winged roc bloodline. After eating it, not only did I show signs of atavism, I even broke through two minor levels. I’ve really struck it rich,” The giant scorpion transformed into a human with a proud smile on his face. He was quite satisfied with his improvement this time.
Seeing this, Qin Chen frowned, feeling very surprised. The roc’s cultivation had only been at the Venerable realm when it was alive. Even if the power of its bloodline was strong, it should only slightly improve the scorpion’s bloodline, not its cultivation level.
This could only happen if the big scorpion could have broken through long ago, but had not broken through until now due to the limitations of its bloodline.
The demon race was different from the human race. Their cultivation method was very crude. As long as one’s bloodline was strong, one would practically have no bottlenecks. However, if one’s bloodline was not strong enough, one would basically be stuck in one realm no matter how talented one was.
The big scorpion might have been unable to break through due to its bloodline limit before this, As such, after its bloodline was upgraded, it broke through two minor realms in one go.
Thinking of this, Qin Chen could not help but be shocked. To think the big scorpion could cultivate till it reached its bloodline’s bottleneck. This showed how terrifying its talent was. If it was in the outside world, it would definitely become a genius of the demon race.
After a night of rest, Qin Chen arrived at the blood-red desert the next morning. He was prepared to enter one of the nine forbidden grounds, the Demon Emperor Tomb.
“Kid, there’s really no return if you enter. Are you really going?” The big scorpion asked.
Qin Chen nodded. He had gone through so much to get here, so of course, he couldn’t give up halfway. He said in a deep voice, “I must go to the Demon Emperor Tomb.”
“Alright, I hope I won’t pick up your corpse,” The big scorpion stretched lazily and lay down on a sand hill alone. Its eyes became lonely once more.
After so many years, Qin Chen was the only one who had come here. Although the two of them had fought before, the big scorpion was still a little worried and disappointed when it saw that Qin Chen was preparing to enter the Demon Emperor Tomb.
“When I come back, I’ll take you out of this damn place,” Qin Chen glanced at the big scorpion, then unleashed his Sagely might and wrapped his body with divine power. After that, he plunged into the blood-red desert and swam toward the depths.
Watching Qin Chen disappear, the big scorpion suddenly stood up. Its expression became hesitant, but after a moment, it jumped into the blood-red desert as well.
In the outside world, the God of the primordial sage race and the crazy old man had been fighting for two months in the depths of the starry sky. Who knew how many stars they had shattered?
It was said that the residual power of the battle between the two had destroyed a major world in the depths of the starry sky. As for whether that was true or not, no one knew.
On this day, the sky of the entire Canglan Continent was dyed blood-red, and a fireball fell from the sky, blowing up a mountain range in the land of the East Sea and igniting a monstrous fire.
Countless experts went to investigate, but the power of the great path in the depths of the mountain stopped them. No one could see the true appearance of the fireball.
What was even more shocking was that the fire carried by the fireball was a terrifying Dao fire. Even Sages couldn’t put it out. The entire mountain range thus turned into an endless sea of fire. It was a terrifying sight.
“Human, there are still self-sealing experts in our races. Do you really want to exterminate us?” A shrill cry came from the starry sky as a divine soul flew rapidly into the depths of the East Sea under the escort of an ancient imperial weapon.
However, at this moment, a sword with dragon engravings appeared in the sky and released extreme emperor’s might to seal the space, leaving the divine soul with nowhere to escape.
“Primordial sage race, traitor! Kill without mercy!” As soon as he finished speaking, the crazy old man took a step into the starry sky and appeared in the sky above the Canglan Continent. He raised his arm and slapped the ancient imperial weapon away, exposing the primordial sage race’s God’s soul.
“That’s the God of the primordial sage race? Why is he in such a sorry state?”
“Even his physical body has been destroyed. How terrifying was the battle?”
“That guy sent an ancient imperial weapon flying with one slap! Is he a great emperor?”
“Since the human race has such a powerful expert, what grounds do the primordial sage race have to be arrogant?”
“What does the human race’s God want to do? Could it be that he wants to kill the God of the primordial sage race?”
Everyone’s hearts were at their throats as they looked on in disbelief, not even daring to blink their eyes.
“Human, how dare you?!” In the depths of the East Sea, a furious roar came from the ancestral land of the primordial sage race. The two Supreme Sages worked together to strike out an ancient imperial weapon, trying to save their patriarch.
However, they had only flown a short distance away from their race’s ancestral land when they saw the crazy old man casting an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge. With that, a terrifying emperor’s might struck, and the sky of the East Sea was about to collapse. The two Supreme Sages of the primordial sage race died on the spot, and even their ancient imperial weapon was sent flying.
“Human, the experts of my race will never let you off!” The God of the primordial sage race roared. However, just as he finished speaking, the crazy old man reached out and grabbed his soul, then slashed horizontally with the Son of Heaven’s sword. With a loud boom, the heavens collapsed and the earth cracked. The God of the primordial sage race was annihilated.
A God has died, and the great path let out sounds of misery as the ten thousand ancient races wept.
“To think the primordial sage race’s God has died. The ten thousand ancient races vow to fight the human race to the death.”
“Isn’t the human race’s God too terrifying? How are we, the ten thousand ancient races, supposed to survive?”
“To think the ten thousand ancient races have lost a God the moment he was revived. How are we going to compete with the human race in the future?”
“How can we, the ten thousand ancient races, resist the might of a God? This is the heavenly tribulation on us!”
After killing the God of the primordial sage race, the crazy old man was still not willing to stop. Holding the Son of Heaven’s sword, he appeared in the sky above the ancestral land of the primordial sage race, preparing to destroy the entire race.
The emperor’s might erupted, and a tsunami was set off in the East Sea. All the living beings in the sea were trembling, and those who were closer were directly killed by the emperor’s might, leaving behind pools of blood on the vast sea.
Regardless of whether it was the human race or the ten thousand ancient races, they were all staring at the East Sea. They all wanted to know what would happen to the primordial sage race. If the race were to be exterminated, the human race would become the true master of this land.
At this moment, a beam of golden light shot out from the ancestral land of the primordial sage race. A golden scroll flew into the sky and released a terrifying primordial imperial might. It was even more terrifying than an awakened ancient imperial weapon.
“Please, Sage Emperor Tai Yang!” A shout came from the ancestral land of the primordial sage race. Drops of blood flew out and landed on the golden scroll, releasing a monstrous pressure.
Immediately after, an illusory yet imposing figure appeared in the sky. The primordial imperial might struck, and all the living beings on the Canglan Continent were suppressed to the ground to the point that they couldn’t even lift their heads.
The phantom recovered and became increasingly substantial. Everyone could only see his long robe fluttering in the air, but they couldn’t see his face at all. It seemed that the moment they caught a glimpse of his face, they would forget it.
“Who dares to offend my race?” As soon as he spoke, the world trembled, and all living beings were suppressed to the ground.
