Chapter 541 - 541 Demon King
541 Demon King
Qin Chen managed to force the terrifying figure back.
If not for the fact that he was risking his life, he wouldn’t have been able to do so.
...Qin Chen and the others walked forward step by step. Suddenly, a fluctuation came from afar.
This terrifying fluctuation caused Qin Chen’s heart to palpitate. Just what level was this thing that could cause them to be so shocked?
The true dragon and flame-wing beast, the two Great God-realm experts, could sense the abnormality.
They looked at Qin Chen, who nodded.
Everyone walked forward again. They could probably see what kind of treasure was in front of them after some distance.
It had been difficult for Qin Chen and the others to survive in the demon king’s tomb to this point.
Many unaffiliated cultivators had already died here, and even Patriarch Xuan Tian had lost an arm.
Currently, Patriarch Xuan Tian finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
There must be something terrifying hidden in the demon king’s tomb.
However, Patriarch Xuan Tian realized, to his despair, that he did not have a choice for regret.
He thus sunk into a state of madness.
He didn’t expect the demon king to leave behind such a deep influence. He even suspected that all the traps in the demon king’s tomb were deliberately left behind by the demon king.
Why did the other party do that?
Patriarch Xuan Tian did not know either.
He already had doubts in his heart. Perhaps the once invincible demon king had not died. Could it be that the other party wanted to be reborn?
“No, this is impossible.”
Patriarch Xuan Tian let out a furious roar out of rage. He couldn’t believe that the terrifying demon king was still alive.
Logically speaking, the terrifying demon king should have long died. Why were there so many questionable points appearing now?
When Patriarch Xuan Tian entered the demon king’s tomb, he thought that he would not be injured at all.
He had only come to his senses now that all this was a f*cking trap.
The tomb had already attracted countless experts to die in it.
Once one wanted to head to the depths of the demon king’s tomb, one would definitely fall into the trap.
The trap could even severely injure Patriarch Xuan Tian. As such, one could imagine how serious the casualties would be for the ordinary human cultivators, the various large factions, the demon race experts, and the unaffiliated cultivators.
It would be considered good if just one-fifth of the people who came could survive.
This time, it was very likely that many experts would die here.
At this moment, Qin Chen and the others, who were still moving forward, finally discovered the opportunity they were looking for.
It really was right in front of them.
The source of that terrifying fluctuation was in a pool.
In the pool was a figure with his back facing them.
Could it be the fluctuation emitted by this figure?
Qin Chen and the others had not forgotten how powerful that terrifying figure was.
As such, they carefully probed with their spiritual will and indeed found that the cross-legged expert who had been sitting here for God knows how many years seemed to still have the aura of life.
He was like a living dead. No one knew if he would wake up again.
Qin Chen and the others had gone through great hardships and risked their lives to enter the depths of the demon king’s tomb.
They did not expect that they would end up empty-handed.
The fluctuation the figure gave off was extremely terrifying, many times stronger than the terrifying figure that injured Qin Chen and the others.
Just the pressure he emitted was enough to make everyone tremble in fear. There must be something mysterious about this terrifying figure.
Therefore, Qin Chen wanted to go forward and investigate.
Holy Maiden Mu Xue stopped Qin Chen. Everyone was feeling truly fearful now.
They were afraid that this person with his back facing them was another old undying or powerful enemy.
They could not guarantee that their luck would continue to be as good as it was now.
If they were not careful, they would be completely wiped out.
How terrifying would the consequences be?
They could not accept such a tragic price.
In the end, Qin Chen brought everyone far away. Then, he carefully released his Jiuying divine soul.
He wanted to find out what the terrifying figure with his back to them was.
However, before the Jiuying divine soul could approach, a powerful pressure was emitted from the figure which suppressed the Jiuying divine soul and made it impossible for it to advance any further.
There was no other way. Qin Chen paid a huge price to retrieve the Jiuying divine soul back into his body.
This whole operation actually caused the Jiuying divine soul to be quite shaken. If this continued, it was very difficult to imagine what situation would befall them.
Qin Chen didn’t know where this terrifying figure came from.
He then probed with his spiritual will again. However, this time, it seemed as if he had touched something that he should not have. A terrifying pressure instantly erupted.
As the terrifying figure had his back facing Qin Chen and the others, they couldn’t see that the other party’s finger was actually trembling slowly.
Even if getting close to the terrifying figure with their spiritual will was very difficult.
Seeing this terrifying scene, Qin Chen’s heart was filled with endless emotions.
He did not expect that he would actually be able to activate this terrifying figure.
Seeing the terrifying expert’s pressure slowly become stronger, Qin Chen and the others have a bad feeling.
The big scorpion’s expression was grave as he said, “There’s something very terrifying here. We can’t stay here any longer.”
With that, Qin Chen and the others quickly left.
However, just as they wanted to leave, this terrifying figure once again erupted with a pressure that was even more terrifying than before!
Instantly, Qin Chen and the others spat out blood.
In the blink of an eye, it was as if a fatal danger had flashed through the hearts of Qin Chen and the others.
They had to leave this place as soon as possible.
God knows what kind of terrifying demon they had released.
Such a powerful old undying was probably comparable to Patriarch Xuan Tian.
However, after Qin Chen left with everyone, the terrifying figure sitting cross-legged did not wake up.
If someone could recognize him, they would know that the other party was the owner of the demon king’s tomb!
No one expected that the invincible demon king was still alive.
Patriarch Xuan Tian was on the verge of collapse.
After losing an arm, he had been injured again. As a result, his blood qi was in disorder, and his strength had been greatly reduced.
One had to know that he definitely could not defeat the former demon king.
He did not expect that even the tomb left behind by the demon king after the latter’s death could cause him such serious injuries.
One could imagine how terrifying the demon king had been back then.
After an unknown amount of time, Patriarch Xuan Tian finally recovered.
