Chapter 2730: Chapter 2729: Trap!
Hearing the Dragon Country warrior Gao Yang’s words, Lin Dong hesitated for a moment, then agreed.
He agreed for two reasons.
The first reason is because he is a Dragon Country warrior.
In this Extraterrestrial Battlefield, when encountering a fellow Dragon Country warrior in trouble, Lin Dong generally holds the mindset of helping when he can.
The second reason is that Lin Dong himself is also looking for the Demon Emperor. Now that he knows where the Demon Emperor is, it couldn’t be better.
This way, it saves him the trouble of searching.
However, before agreeing, Lin Dong still asked, "The Demon Emperor you mentioned, what is its strength?"
This Dragon Country warrior Gao Yang responded, "I don’t know, I just know it’s a Demon Emperor."
Lin Dong nodded.
After all, he only possesses the strength of an Earth Realm martial artist and naturally cannot know the specific strength of the Demon Emperor.
Just like when Lin Dong was at the Earth Realm martial artist’s strength, he once encountered Yun Ruoxian and the inspector. At that time, he could not judge their specific cultivation level either.
Only when Lin Dong truly becomes a Heavenly Realm martial artist will he be able to see through their specific strengths.
"Let’s go, I’ll go with you to take a look. If your companion is still alive, I’ll do my best to save him. If, unfortunately, he has already died at the hands of that Demon Emperor, then I will avenge him."
"After all, we’re all Dragon Country warriors!"
Hearing Lin Dong agree, this Dragon Country warrior Gao Yang was overjoyed and quickly bowed, saying, "Thank you, Master Lin!"
Afterward, Lin Dong and Gao Yang left this area.
...
The Sky Cloud Mountain Range, shrouded in mist, with towering peaks, is like a magnificent landscape painting.
However, beneath this beautiful scenery lies endless dangers and challenges.
Lin Dong followed Gao Yang, shuttling through the dense forest path. Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled shadows, adding an air of mystery to the silent forest.
Gao Yang’s steps were hurried, his heart clearly filled with anxiety.
He occasionally looked back at Lin Dong, his eyes full of anticipation and gratitude.
"Master Lin, it’s just ahead in that area. I hope that fellow disciple is still alive." Gao Yang pointed to a deep mountain valley in front, his voice trembling slightly.
Lin Dong nodded, his expression becoming a bit grave.
He could feel a powerful demon energy permeating in the mountain valley ahead.
This demon energy was much stronger than any demon beast he had encountered before.
"This demon beast is not simple. Even the Four-Star Demon Emperor I killed previously doesn’t seem to compare to it." Lin Dong’s eyes flickered, but it was unclear what he was thinking.
The two of them carefully approached the valley, only to see huge cracks at the valley’s entrance, as if forcibly torn apart by some gigantic creature.
Bloodstains and torn clothes remained within the cracks, clearly indicating that a fierce battle had taken place here.
"This Demon Emperor is not simple." Lin Dong said in a low voice, his eyes sharp as he scanned the surroundings, looking for possible entry points.
Gao Yang clenched his fists tightly, his eyes flashing with a strange cold light.
He took a deep breath and said, "Master Lin, you are ranked sixth on the Five Elements Stele. You have hunted fourteen Demon Emperors. Are you afraid of this Demon Emperor? Let’s go in."
Lin Dong nodded, and the two of them quickly entered the valley.
Inside the valley, the light was dim, only occasionally broken by the roars of demon beasts echoing through the silence.
They proceeded along a narrow passage, with dense thorns and vines on either side.
These thorns and vines were covered in sharp barbs and could actually move.
If not careful, one could get entangled by these vines. If a low-rank martial artist were to be caught, they would be drained completely.
If one’s strength is below an Earth Realm martial artist, entering this Sky Cloud Mountain Range would be almost certain death. The vegetation here could kill these low-rank martial artists.
Although Gao Yang is a Ninth Stage Martial Arts Grandmaster, a formidable presence in the outside world, here, he moved cautiously, constantly alert to his surroundings.
And Lin Dong, although powerful, did not let his guard down.
He remained vigilant, always on the lookout, feeling that this Demon Emperor Gao Yang was leading him to was not simple.
Finally, they arrived at a massive cave.
The cave entrance was blocked by a huge boulder, with deep claw marks remaining on the surface.
Clearly, these were marks left by the Demon Emperor.
Gao Yang looked at the rock in front of him, a flash of determination crossing his eyes.
He said in a low voice, "Master Lin, this is the Demon Emperor’s lair. My companion and I originally came here to seek treasure."
"Who would have thought we’d find not treasure, but the Demon Emperor’s lair. Sigh..."
With this, he let out a deep sigh.
Lin Dong nodded, gathered his internal force, and pushed hard against the rock.
With a "boom," the rock turned into powder under Lin Dong’s strike.
The cave interior was pitch black.
However, as their eyes adjusted to the darkness, they saw a pair of eyes gleaming with red light.
These eyes were like two bright stars, particularly striking in the darkness.
"Yes, this time, the person you brought has strong qi and blood. I’m very satisfied with his bloodline!" Just as Lin Dong and Gao Yang stepped inside, they heard a voice from the lair.
The one speaking was indeed the owner of those gleaming red eyes!
The owner of the blood-red eyes spoke in a deep, powerful voice, emanating a strong qi blood aura.
As for the demon energy felt earlier, it had completely vanished.
Clearly, this blood-eyed master was not the ordinary Demon Emperor Gao Yang had described before.
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong’s heart sank, instantly realizing he’d fallen into a meticulously planned trap.
He looked coldly at Gao Yang, only to see Gao Yang now hiding behind the owner of the blood-red eyes, his face pale and eyes flickering, a stark contrast to the respect and admiration he had shown earlier.
"Gao Yang, do you have a reasonable explanation for me?" Lin Dong’s voice was low and cold, each word squeezed out like it came from between clenched teeth, full of anger and disappointment.
Gao Yang’s body trembled slightly, he opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.
However, before he could speak, the blood-eyed master spoke first.
"Hmph, an explanation? You don’t need to know too much." The blood-red eyes’ owner sneered, interrupting Gao Yang’s hesitation, "All you need to know is that your bloodline is a priceless treasure to me."
"And that your bloodline can serve as nourishment on my Martial Way will be your honor!"
At this moment, Lin Dong focused entirely on this blood-eyed master, realizing there was a familiar aura on him.
An aura he had encountered before!
"You... you are from the Extraterritorial Blood Clan!" Lin Dong finally recognized the other’s identity at this moment.
This was no Demon Emperor, but clearly, someone from the Extraterritorial Blood Clan.
