Chapter 647 - Myriad Earth Essence

Enter?

Lady Xuan is inside the bathtub and she wants me to enter?

Doesn’t that mean ...

Huangfu Yu was ecstatic. He never thought something like this would happen to him. He had been fantasizing about Lady Xuan ever since he first laid eyes on her, but he never thought that it would come true.

He stumbled into the bathtub.

But he was thrown out in just under three minutes.

Huangfu Yu was shocked. He had tried to last longer, but Lady Xuan was simply too powerful.

***

Martial Overlord City.

News about the fight at the Ancient Demon Domain had spread throughout the Martial Alliance. Martial Overlord City was buzzing with activity as the citizens gossiped and discussed it.

Long Shan’s appearance was already shocking news, but the news about Long Chen defeating Zhao Danchen and twisting off one of his arms was even more surprising. Zhao Danchen and Zhao Wuji were legends in the Divine Martial Empire. Putting aside their personalities, their strength was unmatched.

But after the appearance of Long Shan, who was on Zhao Wuji’s level, Long Chen had managed to defeat Zhao Danchen.

Long Chen’s fame skyrocketed, and now everyone has heard his name. His position in the hearts of the people had far surpassed Zhao Danchen. To think a nameless nobody could become one of the strongest experts in the Divine Martial Empire in just a few months.

The dazzling light surrounding Long Chen’s fame cast a large shadow over the two geniuses.

Zhao Danchen was not an easy target. He had lost an arm, but he hadn't lost his rationality. He had inflicted a severe wound on the Demon Emperor and managed to steal the Ancient Demon Corpse, a being capable of fighting toe-to-toe against Long Shan with his Fourth Earthly Martial Stage strength.

The incident was both good and bad news for the Martial Alliance. The bad news was that Zhao Danchen had lost to Long Chen, a member of the Dragon clan. The good news was that the Martial Alliance had managed to secure the Ancient Demon Corpse, a tool as powerful as the Martial Overlord. It was such a bizarre twist of fate. If Zhao Danchen hadn’t lost, he would’ve never managed to attack Jiang Wuxie from the back.

Everyone had a feeling that the Divine Martial Empire was undergoing a large change.

The troops that had gone to the Ancient Demon Domain returned without Zhao Danchen, which left the Martial Alliance confused. Isn’t it better for him to come back to Martial Overlord City to recover?

No one knew why he hadn’t returned immediately.

Half a month later, someone snuck into Martial Overlord Palace. At the topmost floor was a dark room so dark that one could barely see their hand in front of them. A man wearing white was sitting in the middle of the room.

“I thought you wouldn’t return after you gained the strength to stand against me,” Zhao Wuji said with a blank stare.

Zhao Danchen calmly responded, “Of course not. There’s no way I would continue living under you once I got the strength to oppose you.”

“To think that a descendant of the Great Gold Clan of the Divine Molten Gold Empire would be exiled to the insignificant Divine Martial Empire. Even after spending so many years here, your arrogance has yet to dissipate.”

Zhao Wuji’s voice echoed again.

The Divine Molten Gold Empire and the Great Gold Clan were terms Long Chen hadn’t heard before. The Divine Molten Gold Empire was one of the Ten Divine Empires. The Divine Martial Empire was the only weak one out of the ten.

That explained Zhao Danchen’s talent. He was an exile from the Divine Molten Gold Empire!

“Do you still care about my identity?” Zhao Danchen’s voice was cold.

“Of course. You stand above everyone here in the Divine Martial Empire, but you are just a petty criminal in the Divine Molten Gold Empire.” Zhao Wuji’s voice was cold, carrying a hint of disdain.

“I’m not here to talk with you. I want to take something from you,” Zhao Danchen said.

“What do you want?”

“An advanced King-tier spiritual herb, the Myriad Earth Essence. I know you have it.”

“The Myriad Earth Essence? It’s a spiritual herb with intense healing properties. It could even regenerate the limbs of those at the Earthly Martial Realm. You want to heal your right arm? As my disciple, I could naturally give it to you, but on one condition.”

“What condition?”

“I want the Ancient Demon Corpse.”

Zhao Danchen laughed. “Don’t try to fool me, you old bastard! I’m as strong as you now, but if I gave you the Ancient Demon Corpse, I would become your slave again!”

“Slave?” Zhao Wuji sighed and shook his head. “That’s just your assumption. I’ve always treated you as my successor. I wanted to let you take over the Divine Martial Empire, but it seems you are ungrateful.”

“What kind of master would take his disciple’s belongings?” Zhao Danchen retorted.

“I’m leaving the Divine Martial Empire. The Ancient Demon Corpse will help me greatly. My chances of survival will increase if I have it.”

“Oh?” Zhao Danchen realized what he was saying. “Are you planning to enter the Ancient Graveyard? It’s a battlefield where millions of experts have perished in the past. They’ve left a lot of treasures there. The strongest people in the Ten Divine Empires all rose to their current positions after obtaining the treasures in the Ancient Graveyard. Zhao Wuji, you are truly a scheming bastard. You intend to give me the lousy Divine Martial Empire while you go look for treasure in the Ancient Graveyard!”

Zhao Wuji shook his head. “Isn’t it good that you get the Divine Martial Empire? You are still young. You can get the Ancient Token to enter the Ancient Graveyard next time. By then, you should be at the Fourth or Fifth Earthly Martial Stage. You will have a higher chance of survival like that. If you enter now, you will die. I’m already old and don’t have any wishes left, so I want to risk it one last time.”
