Eternal Reverence

Chapter 843: Descent of a Demon Liege

Translator: jinzeffect

While the Joint-Heaven Sword was still in its unsealed state, Li Fuchen increased his speed to roam around.

Since demon overlords were able to sense him, Li Fuchen would deliver himself to them.

Skipping through battle regions, another demon overlord spotted Li Fuchen.

It was a pity that before the demon overlord could get close, Li Fuchen sliced up the demon overlord into pieces in a single move. With a demon overlord’s vitality, even if there was only a single drop of blood left, the demon overlord would be able to instantly regenerate. But due to the unsealed Joint-Heaven Sword, death was guaranteed.

After killing two demon overlords at once, the Joint-Heaven Sword’s sword patterns were starting to get clogged again.

“Satisfying, it is too easy to kill.” Li Fuchen felt rather reluctant.

“Once you are a saint, it will not be a problem to unseal the sword for at least ten times longer.” The Sword Spirit said.

Li Fuchen said, “I will comprehend the sword patterns myself.”

“Do your best then. These sword patterns are top rate apex sword patterns. After comprehending them, your strength will be increased countless times. Even without the Joint-Heaven Sword, you will also be abnormally powerful.”

The last layer of sealed sword patterns wasn’t supreme rate sword patterns. If it was, even after Li Fuchen progressed into a saint, he wouldn’t be able to comprehend them even with a long period of time.

…

On an abandoned mid-class continent.

“Durisodin, hurry up and set up the sacrificial array.”

Demon Lord Andri’s body had already recovered, but his qi presence was much weaker. He was commanding many of his subordinates to set up the sacrificial array.

He was holding a blood-colored crystal ball.

This blood-colored crystal ball was called the Life-Siphon Crystal Ball. It contained the vitality of countless humans. The sacrificial effect might not be as good as living sacrifices, but it was superior in the amount. After all, it was troublesome to transport so many living people. It was fine to summon regular Gates of Flesh, but to summon a higher grade of Gate of Flesh, the number of sacrifices required would be too much. It was extremely difficult to transport so many living humans. But it was different with the Life-Siphon Crystal Ball. With enough vitality, it wouldn’t be a problem to summon a higher grade of Gate of Flesh.

Soon enough, the sacrificial array was completed. Demon Overlord Andri then placed the crystal ball at the core of the array.

Boom!

A glaring blood-colored thunderbolt struck down. A giant Gate of Flesh gradually rose up.

The Gate of Flesh opened and innumerable demons surged out. There were all sorts of demons from class 1 to class 8.

Soon enough, demon overlords appeared.

“Greetings to Lord Andri.”

Demon Overlord Andri was a noble among the demons and had a high level of status.

Demon Overlord Andri responded with a nod and stared at the Gate of Flesh.

Rip!

A pair of hands grabbed the Gate of Flesh from within. A demon’s head with a pair of giant bull horns emerged.

Seeing this demon, Demon Overlord Andri was overjoyed.

“Greetings to Demon Liege Longko.” Demon Overlord Andri greeted with respect.

A higher grade of Gate of Flesh was naturally to summon a demon liege.

A demon liege’s energy was exceedingly horrific and was at least dozens of times or even a hundred times more than peak-tier demon overlord. A normal Gate of Flesh couldn’t possibly transport a demon liege.

“Andri, why are you injured?” The entire body of Demon Liege Longko finally emerged. A height of over 10,000 meters might not be comparable with demonic beasts, but was still significantly bigger than humans. Most importantly, every inch of flesh contained shockingly concentrated energy. In comparison, a demonic beast was only large in size, but contained nothing.

While speaking, the demon liege’s body rapidly shrunk. Even the bull horns were withdrawn.

Demon Overlord Andri replied, “I was injured by a human saint lord.”

“A human saint lord? I shall try his skills if there is a chance.”

Demon Liege Longko didn’t really care. He had crossed moves with human saint lords in the star domain, and it wasn’t just once or twice. Within 100 times, he would only lose out once or twice. Furthermore, he had personally killed one human saint lord.

“Death.”

Demon Liege Longko suddenly reached out and grasped. A few hundred million miles away, two human saints were grabbed. With a clench, there was a bang and two human saints were blasted into pieces. The remaining essence blood fell into a small bottle.

“Demon Liege is invincible!”

When all the demon overlords saw the scene, they were filled with admiration and fear.

…

“Elder Li, be careful for the recent period. A demon liege has arrived at the demons’ side. The number of casualties among the human saints is truly bad.”

The elder token echoed with the Mystic Deep Sword Saint’s voice.

“Demon liege…”

Li Fuchen’s eyes widened. A demon liege corresponded with a saint lord. If heaven lords didn’t appear, demon lieges would be invincible.

During this period of time, the demons and humans were both suffering severe casualties. The humans had the Heaven Ruin Saint Lord who was constantly eliminating demon overlords. Right now, the demons also had a demon liege.

Li Fuchen wasn’t looking down at a saint lord, but at the same level, a demon liege was a much bigger threat than a saint lord.

“The Tiger Fang Sword Saint and Hundred Flower Sword Saint are dead. I really don’t know what kind of ending this war would have.”

Li Fuchen sighed.

Li Fuchen was just a small saint and was powerless to change the situation. He could only work hard and struggle.

…

The situation was worse than the humans’ imagination.

Firstly, the Heaven Ruin Saint Lord was severely injured by the demon liege. Shortly after, the second demon liege arrived.

The humans were in a desperate state.

…

“Heaven Ruin Saint Lord, you think you can escape?”

On Saint Yin Continent, two demon lieges were on pursuit.

“Heaven Ruin Blood Hand!”

The Heaven Ruin Saint Lord’s palm struck on Demon Liege Longko and left a blood hand print.

Bang Bang!

But the Heaven Ruin Saint Lord had also received palm strikes from the duo.

The difference was that Demon Liege Longko quickly regenerated after suffering the injury.

The Heaven Ruin Saint Lord’s qi blood was getting increasingly weak.

“Heaven Ruin Claw Shadow!”

The Heaven Ruin Saint Lord’s attacks were getting more intense. At this level, even with severe injuries, there would be a method to explode one’s combat strength.

“Heaven Ruin Saint Lord, stop struggling. You must die today.”

As two demon lieges worked together, the Heaven Ruin Saint Lord was constantly pushed back. His blood was spraying everywhere as though it was limitless.

“Heaven Ruin Saint Body!”

As the injuries worsened the Heaven Ruin Saint Lord circulated his cultivation technique with increasing speed.

Only a few individuals knew that the Heaven Ruin Saint Technique was stronger with more injuries. It would continue until the essence blood was exhausted.

Boom Boom Boom…

The two demon lieges were sent flying backwards.

“Interesting.”

The demon liege called Wakedo squinted his eyes.

The Heaven Ruin Saint Lord wasn’t especially powerful, but the difficulty to deal with him was comparable with some formidable saint lords.

“It is a pity that you still have to die. Death Ray Jet!”

Demon Liege Wakedo burst out with a yell. His eyes shot out unlimited death rays that buried the Heaven Ruin Saint Lord.

Swish!

A blood shadow pierced through the death ray and vanished in the blink of the eye.

This was the Heaven Ruin Saint Technique’s heaven ruin shift. It could only be used at the brink of death. Once it was used, not even a heaven lord could stop it.

“Wakedo, why did you let him escape?” Demon Liege Longko said with dissatisfaction as his palm attack struck air.

“Don’t worry, he is struck by my death ray is already at the brink of death. He will only last for a few days.”

Demon Liege was very confident. In this world, apart from a few insanely powerful saint lords, none could survive his death ray.

“It will be regretful not to personally see him die.”

Demon Liege Longko actually wanted the essence blood from the Heaven Ruin Saint Lord.

A saint lord’s essence blood was a great nourishment.

The Heaven Ruin Saint Lord was severely injured and missing, while there were two demon lieges around. The situation of the Deep Blue Plane had turned around completely. The humans started with the initiative offense, but now had to change to passive defense.
