Chapter 2530
2530 Fiend Kings Alarmed
Finally, the young master of a fiend sect reacted and threw the black incomplete diagram on the ground before turning to flee.
The Martial Dao Prime Body glanced at that person and picked up the black incomplete diagram without chasing after him.
When the young master of Heavenly Evil Sect saw that, he shuddered and did the same. He threw down the black incomplete diagram and turned to flee, hoping to survive with this move.
Unfortunately, the Martial Dao Prime Body did not give him a chance and chased after him in a few steps, killing him with a single punch!
Earlier on, this person caused trouble outside the Fiend Cave, wanting to make use of Firmament Ascension Palace to deal with the Martial Dao Prime Body.
At that time, the Martial Dao Prime Body ignored him.
Now that this person provoked him again, he could only send the latter to the afterlife!
In the blink of an eye, four of the seven fiend sect young masters died. Three of them abandoned the black incomplete diagram and escaped from the battlefield successfully. The remaining Perfected Fiends fled as well.
The group of cultivators that followed behind did not know what was going on inside. When they saw the Perfected Fiend experts of Firmament Ascension Palace and Black Fiend Sect scared out of their wits and fleeing, they panicked and retreated one after another.
A strange scene appeared in the Fiend Cave.
Most of the cultivators did not know what happened and fled hurriedly behind when they saw the chaos ahead.
“Hurry and escape! Half-step Grotto-heaven experts died beneath!”
“What happened? Who killed them?”
“I’m not sure. It seems like a terrifying creature has appeared!”
“This is bad! A terrifying creature was born deep underground and is on a massacre!”
In the chaos, the information became more ridiculous. Later on, when many cultivators escaped from the Fiend Cave, there were all sorts of sayings.
“A million terrifying living beings have awakened underground and are eating flesh!”
“This is bad. I heard that a Fiend Emperor awakened and broke through his coffin to start a massacre!”
The millions of fiend cultivators who stood guard outside the entrance of the Fiend Cave were startled when they saw many fiend cultivators fleeing in panic while shouting wildly.
“Your Highness, let’s retreat first!”
A few Perfected Fiends protected Prince Ling Xian and retreated.
The moment Firmament Ascension Palace moved, Black Fiend Sect and the other six major fiend sects retreated as well. No other sects and factions dared to linger when they saw that and everyone followed suit.
“Don’t panic!”
The void tore in midair and more than 20 figures appeared. They descended with tremendous might and looked down at the world!
More than 20 Grotto-heaven realm Fiend Kings!
“What nonsense are you talking about?!”
Fiend King Hidden Space of Firmament Ascension Palace had a cold gaze as he surveyed his surroundings and harrumphed coldly. “The Fiend Emperor buried beneath has died tens of millions of years ago. Even a Great Emperor won’t be able to live for so long!”
Fiend King Hidden Space was a Supreme Fiend King of Firmament Ascension Palace!
This time round, there were seven Fiend Kings from Firmament Ascension Palace alone. Among them, there were even two Supreme Fiend Kings.
The other seven heaven-grade fiend sects had two or three Fiend Kings each.
Among them, four Supreme Fiend Kings who once fought against Desolate Martial, the Sect Master of Black Fiend Sect, Fiendcelestial Black Heaven, the Villa Master of Yellow Springs Villa and the Territorial Lord of Godfiend Ridge, were present as well.
The temperament, judgment, knowledge and experience of the Fiend Kings naturally far surpassed the fiends present.
This tomb of the Fiend Emperor had been sealed for tens of millions of years. If there were otherworldly soldiers and ghosts, it would be normal. However, there could not be any living beings!
Before long, the Perfected Fiends and three young masters of Firmament Ascension Palace and the seven major fiend sects escaped at the back.
When Fiendcelestial Black Heaven, the Sect Master of Heavenly Evil Sect and the others did not see their young masters, they gradually sensed that something was amiss and their expressions darkened.
“What’s going on?”
Prince Ling Xian hurried forward and asked, “What happened inside?”
A Perfected Fiend of Firmament Ascension Palace said with lingering fear, panting, “Desolate Martial was the first to rush in and he beat us to all the treasures.”
“That person alone took away all the treasures of two halls in succession!”
“Duan Ming, Song Shi and a few other young masters of the fiend sects could not take it lying down and went forward to reason with him. Unexpectedly, he suddenly went on a killing spree. Fellow Daoists Duan Ming and Song Shi were killed by him in two punches!”
“Two punches?”
Prince Ling Xian narrowed his eyes and his pupils constricted.
Fiendcelestial Black Heaven, the Villa Master of Yellow Springs Villa and the few other Supreme Fiend Kings exchanged glances as the same thought crossed their minds.
Desolate Martial was much stronger than before!
The Perfected Fiend glanced at Fiendcelestial Black Heaven and the others before continuing, “The young masters of Black Fiend Sect, Yellow Springs Villa, Godfiend Ridge and Heavenly Evil Sect were all killed by Desolate Martial.”
“Desolate Martial!”
The gazes of Fiendcelestial Black Heaven and the other Fiend Kings were cold.
Indeed, they were wary of Emperor Bo Xun. But now, there were countless treasures buried beneath the Fiend Cave—who wouldn’t be tempted?
Furthermore, if Desolate Martial could truly die in the hands of this Fiend Cave, even Emperor Bo Xun might not know who did it!
The tomb of the Fiend Emperor blocked all detection and they could not probe even with their spirit consciousnesses.
“Are there any other dangers down there?”
Firmament Ascension Palace’s Fiend King Hidden Space asked in a deep voice.
“No, the journey was smooth and there were no traps, ambushes or puppets. That’s the reason why Desolate Martial beat us to it time and again to snatch the treasures without any reservations.”
The Perfected Fiend replied hurriedly.
“Desolate Martial is arrogant and conceited. He has gone overboard with his bullying!”
When Prince Ling Xian heard that Duan Ming and Song Shi, the two half-step Grotto-heavens, were dead, his killing intent towards the Martial Dao Prime Body intensified as he said slowly, “Since there’s no danger in the Fiend Cave below, there’s no need for you Fiend Kings to hold back. Follow me into the tomb and hunt down Desolate Martial!”
“Alright!”
Fiend King Hidden Space and the others agreed without hesitation.
Apart from protecting Prince Ling Xian, they had another motive for coming here—they wanted to look for some opportunities in the tomb of the Fiend Emperor.
If they could break through and condense perfected Grotto-heavens, they would be a step closer to the Emperor realm!
Prince Ling Xian looked at the Fiend Cave with a dark gaze and grit his teeth. “Desolate Martial, I’m going to let you know who calls the shots in the Fiend Domain today!”
Ling Xian waved his hand and Hidden Space and the other Fiend Kings of Firmament Ascension Palace surrounded him before entering the Fiend Cave at the same time.
Fiendcelestial Black Heaven, the Villa Master of Yellow Springs, the Territorial Lord of Godfiend Ridge, the Sect Master of Wind Fiend Sect and the other Fiend Kings did not hesitate and charged into the Fiend Cave right after.
After a while, some of the fiends that were lingering outside the Fiend Cave finally could not hold it in any longer and charged in as well.
Thereafter, the fiends swarmed forward once more.
In the depths of the Fiend Cave, the Martial Dao Prime Body collected the seven black incomplete diagrams and picked up the many storage bags on the ground. He took a casual look and put them away.
None of the treasures in those storage bags were worthy of his attention.
He was prepared to return to Tianhuang Sect and place the treasures there.
His gaze landed on the seven black incomplete diagrams.
Among the many treasures, the only things that interested him were the seven black incomplete diagrams!
Strange enough, when he gathered the seven black incomplete diagrams, they stuck together on their own without any misalignment!
