Chapter 452 - Blood Corpse Demon King

Chapter 452 - Blood Corpse Demon King

The oppressive gloom of this world permeated every inch of space, thick with evil energy and demonic qi.

Barren lands stretched flat and forlorn, littered only with small rocks and swathes of mud and swamps. Chen Fan soon noticed that those swamps had fresh blood instead of black mud. He could even see skulls floating in those fresh blood swamps.

Occasionally, air bubbles surfaced in them, igniting into ghostly flames that burned with a turquoise hue. It was ghost fire.

These ghost fires danced and flickered, sometimes transforming into human faces or taking the form of demonic spirits. The swamps were the root of all these devils.

“These fresh blood swamps are producing devils non-stop. How is that possible? This space is unfathomable. Let’s not go too deep. I must tread cautiously and gather information while remaining vigilant.”

The fresh blood swamps were everywhere, birthing countless ghost fire devils. In the distance, dusky yet ominous castles loomed, inhabited by legions of devils. Waves of powerful aura emanated from these fortresses, signaling the presence of great devils.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Many devils had sensed Chen Fan, so they swarmed toward him like hungry flies drawn to fresh blood, and the ghost fires burned in excitement.

Unfazed, Chen Fan summoned a vortex of true primeval, pulling the devils toward him and consuming them to fuel himself.

“Heaven Seizing Furnace, heaven refining sacred flames.”

However, these devils were all weak and failed to bring any significant growth. He needed those Yuanfu realm and Core Formation realm great devils to sate his appetite.

He walked on the fresh blood swamp, pulling all the ghost fires into him on his way.

Thanks to the Heaven Seizing Furnace, he was cultivating here faster compared to outside. If Chen Fan came across some great devils, it would be equal to absorbing a drop from the Fountain of Life.

In mere moments, thousands of devils were drawn into the depths of Chen Fan’s dantian. His sea of qi seemed to have become a true hell.

The Heaven Seizing Furnace revolved furiously. The magma rolled and churned, and the heaven-refining flames surged, burning for eternity.

“Hmph," the Blood Corpse Demon King sneered. "I had wondered why you brought back a few purple jiangshi kings so suddenly. Now it is clear—you were kicked in here by a brat.”

“Rest assured. Since this brat came in here, there’s no way he will make it out alive. But you lost the Fiendish Corpse Mountain Range. Master will surely punish you severely. And with that, I may have an opportunity to replace you and revel in the outside world once more," said the Blood Corpse Demon King, smiling sinisterly.

“Hmph, you want to replace me? That will have to wait until we kill this brat first.” The purple-gold jiangshi king snorted coldly.

Chen Fan was greatly shocked inside as he heard their conversation.

This otherworldly space, Blood Flesh Swamp, had an owner. Not only that, this owner seemed to be an extremely powerful figure, and the Fiendish Corpse Mountain Range was created by this mysterious figure.

"Brat, once you've entered the realm of the Blood Flesh Swamp, there's no escaping!" declared the Blood Corpse Demon King ominously. Suddenly, he made a move.

A blood-colored whip appeared in the air.

Smack!

A smacking noise rang out in space from a lash. The blood-colored whip swept toward Chen Fan ferociously, carrying the power of the Blood Demon Cultivation Technique. It resembled the Blood Shadow Divine Whip technique practiced by blood demons.

Chen Fan had long since noticed that this Blood Corpse Demon King’s cultivation was above the purple-gold jiangshi king’s, reaching the eighth level. He was as powerful as Elder Liehuo.

His expression became grave, as he didn’t know if there were even stronger devils here.

“Break for me!”

Chen Fan wielded his iron spear, flames licking its tip as he shattered the blood shadows.

Simultaneously, he executed a Bloody Solar Halo, stabbing at the Blood Corpse Demon King’s spirit—the source of his energy. [1]

The author is describing the rare phenomenon, Solar Halo, and changing one of its words to blood to describe how Chen Fan is aiming for the demon king’s core.
