Chapter 640 – Ancient Demon Flag

Ancient Demon Corpse?

When Long Chen was at the Nine Spirit Purgatory, Long Shan had talked about something called the Ancient Demon Corpse from the Ancient Demon Domain. At the time, he had briefly discussed it with Little Cat, and they speculated that it was the reason why the Ancient Demon Domain region was barren, and that it could be in the seventh layer of the Seven Layered Demon World.

“The Ancient Demon Corpse can now wake up and move around since it has absorbed sufficient earthly spiritual Qi. The Ancient Demon Corpse once belonged to a master; after being treated and forged through a secret technique, it became a powerful puppet. Its body is especially tough. Jiang Wuxie should have a way to control it,” Little Cat said in the Primordial Realm.

Long Chen licked his lips and squinted. Rêađ latest cha/p/ters on no/v/e/l(b)in(.)c/o/m

By now, Jiang Wuxie had left everyone in the dust, heading towards the Ancient Demon Domain with a look of excitement on his face. He was a master at the Third Earthly Martial Stage, so he could travel fast. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Long Chen’s field of vision. Long Chen could not give chase even if he wanted to.

He suddenly had a feeling that he had let the tiger go back to its mountain.

“Seventh Brother!” Long Yue and the others all came to Long Chen’s side anxiously. They had forgotten about the injured Zhao Danchen, who was laying on the ground.

The other people of the Martial Alliance looked at each other, not daring to move recklessly. This group of people was just too strong, and Zhao Danchen was no match for them. They had no choice but to back away obediently like cowards. Zhao Danchen lay on the ground without anyone caring for him. The people of the Martial Alliance were all frightened, and no one dared to drag him back.

Zhao Danchen, who was on the verge of death, was forgotten by everyone. At this moment, his eyes were closed, but no one noticed that his wounds were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. This was an effect of the strong healing ability of his Golden Combat Body and because he had secretly taken some spiritual medicine.

Long Chen’s attention was fully grabbed by the commotion at the Ancient Demon Domain.

“I can’t believe the legendary Ancient Demon is waking up now! This Ancient Demon has consumed copious amounts of life force from this land, and its body is very tough; it can match at least a Fourth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator in battle, though it may be even stronger!” Long Shan explained in shock, being the person most qualified to speak at this moment.

“Fourth Earthly Martial Stage?” Long Chen was a little speechless. The Divine Martial Empire was truly changing. First, the appearance of Long Shan, who was strong enough to compete with the Martial Overlord. And now the Ancient Demon Domain was about to possess combat abilities of a Fourth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator?

With everyone listening, Jiang Wuya said, “When I was young, I heard my father say that there is an Ancient Demon Corpse in the seventh layer of the Seven Layered Demon World. When the Ancient Demon Corpse wakes up, the Ancient Demon Domain will not need to bow down to the Martial Alliance! They will need to kneel at our feet instead! I’m guessing that Jiang Wuxie has been holding a grudge ever since he joined the Martial Alliance! Now that the Ancient Demon Corpse has finally woken up, I think the Martial Alliance will have a huge problem on their hands. Jiang Wuxie has had to submit to them for so many years; he must be very resentful!”

When they heard his explanation, they were all shocked.

Long Chen did not know how deep the Black Prison was, only that he had only covered a tiny distance.

Jiang Wuxie was standing in front of the Black Prison, so emotional that he was trembling. Such a powerful weapon was now going to be in his control, and he was unimaginably excited.

“Power, power. I can’t believe that I, Jiang Wuxie, will get to experience this too. How long has it been? How long? How long have I been suppressed by the Martial Alliance? By that bastard Zhao Wuji? From today onwards, I will have the Ancient Demon Corpse. Zhao Wuji will be nothing to me!”

Jiang Wuxie could no longer hold in his excitement and laughed like a madman.

As the mountains shook, the five remaining Demon Kings, two Demon Saints, Jiang Wushang, the Grand Elders, the twenty-eight Demon Generals, and other people arrived and stood behind Jiang Wuxie. They had a rough idea of what was happening and were all excited. They fell to their knees behind Jiang Wuxie and cried in unison, “Congratulations, Demon Emperor! With the Ancient Demon Corpse on our side, the Divine Martial Empire shall belong to the Demon Emperor from today onwards!”

Every single person had a look of ecstasy on their face!

Jiang Wuxie laughed loudly and waved. “Don’t just congratulate me! Every single one of you will also benefit from this. From today onwards, the Ancient Demon Domain will no longer be the Martial Alliance’s puppet. We are now equal to them. In fact, we possess combat abilities exceeding those of Martial Emperor Zhao Wuji!”

“Congratulations, Demon Emperor, for becoming the number one master of the Divine Martial Empire! Sooner or later, we will unite the whole Divine Martial Empire and rule over it!” cried a Demon King excitedly.

Jiang Wuxie was smug and said with a grin, “Alright, that’s enough sucking up. Everyone, back off. The Ancient Demon Corpse is coming up. I’ll be controlling it. Be careful, or it’ll accidentally hurt you!”

Everyone nodded and backed away, leaving Jiang Wuxie standing in front of the Black Prison’s doors. He pulled a black flag out of his Universe Pouch. The flag was only the size of his face and had golden embroidered edges. It had a blood-red, half-meter-long flagpole, which he held. A blurry demon silhouette drawn using blood surrounded by blood-red runes decorated the flag. The runes twisted in a bizarre manner, as if they were alive. This was the Ancient Demon Flag.

This was the object that allowed Jiang Wuxie to control the Ancient Demon Corpse.

“The Black Prison leads directly to the seventh layer of the demon world?” Long Chen watched with surprise after he stopped far away.

No one would have expected the Black Prison to lead to the seventh layer.

The commotion grew more vigorous, and Long Chen watched with bated breath. Suddenly, thick, black mist poured from the Black Prison and enveloped Jiang Wuxie instantly. As the black mist grew, it also shrouded the Ancient Demon Domain.

Long Chen sensed a dangerous aura within the Black Prison, as if a powerful beast was lying within. However, compared to a demonic beast, the thing inside had an extra layer of violence and massacre in its aura, even madness. This feeling was similar to the Ancient Bloodsoul Dragon.
