Chapter 1246: A Devil King Arrived
The ape-man took a careful look at the third big king, and there was a look of surprise on its face.
It cupped its hands again and said, “Congratulations, Third Big King, for breaking through to become a Devil King and becoming the third unrivaled Devil King of Plum Mountain .”
The third big king laughed. It picked up a jar of liquor from the stone table and threw it over. “There’s no need to be polite. I’ve been stuck for tens of thousands of years so breaking through is nothing. However, this time, it can be considered as making up for the regret in my heart. At least others won’t say that I, Third Big King, am an imposter.”
Following that, the ape-man stretched out its hand and took the jar. It drank the liquor in one gulp, then it said, “Third Big King, you must be joking. Back then, if it wasn’t for saving First Big King, there wouldn’t have been any problems with your body, causing you to be unable to break through. To us, your status is definitely not inferior to the other 2 big kings.”
“Good brother, let’s drink!” The third big king took out another jar of liquor and poured it into its mouth.
After the Seven-tailed Heavenly Fox saw that the two had finished drinking, it looked at the ape-man and slowly asked, “Old Ape, you should be here for something, right?”
“Second Big King, if you don’t mention it, I almost forgot. Just now, a white eagle came outside and was caught by me. Then, it said that it has something important to report to the kings,” the ape-man said slowly.
“Oh, is that so? What is it talking about?” The second big king’s beautiful eyes were filled with doubt.
The ape-man said, “Second Big King, that fella said that there’s a Dripping Blood Stone vein 50,000 kilometers to the east, and it’s suspected to be occupied by a Devil Dweller.”
“A Dripping Blood Stone vein? This is a good thing!” The third big king’s eyes were filled with excitement.
The Seven-tailed Heavenly Fox was relatively calmer. It asked softly, “What’s the possibility of that being true?”
Upon hearing the question, the ape-man responded, “It shouldn’t be small. The white eagle said that place is a little strange. Every day, Dripping Blood Stones will be brought out from the waterfall. As for the fact that they can’t even get close to the waterfall, it seems like there’s a powerful pressure there. I don’t think that kid is lying. It doesn’t have the guts to do that in front of me.”
“If it really is a Dripping Blood Stone vein, we can’t miss it. Third Younger Brother has just broken through to become a Devil King, so he needs a large number of Dripping Blood Stones to consolidate his strength.” The second big king was deep in thought.
“Second Elder Sister, let me make a trip. I’ve been staying at Plum Mountain all these years in order to break through, and I’m almost suffocated!” The third big king stood up.
“According to that white eagle, that place should be somewhat special. If you go alone, I won’t be at ease,” the second big king said in a low voice.
The third big king laughed. “Second Elder Sister, all these years I’ve been under the protection of you and Big Brother. Do you really treat me like a child? Have you forgotten that I’m not much younger than you? If it was before, I could still say that my strength was insufficient. Now, my strength has broken through to the Devil King boundary. With my speed, how many people in this million-kilometer territory can catch up to me? Even you might not be able to catch up to me, Second Elder Sister. If I want to escape, no one can stop me.”
The Seven-tailed Heavenly Fox nodded silently.
Her third younger brother was from the Rock Sparrows. It was very fast and proficient in escaping. Now that it had become a Devil King, there were not many people in the world who could do anything to it.
“Then be careful. If anything goes wrong, send me a voice transmission immediately,” the Seven-tailed Heavenly Fox said seriously.
It was just a small Dripping Blood Stone vein, so it was not enough for 2 big kings to attack at the same time. Furthermore, Plum Mountain’s First Big King was in closed-door cultivation at the moment. If it was not a special situation, someone needed to guard this place.
“Don’t worry, Second Elder Sister.”
The third big king spread its wings. With a flap of its grey wings, it disappeared into the air like sharp arrows.
Outside Plum Mountain, the white eagle looked left and right nervously.
At this moment, it was restless. That big fellow just now had given it too much shock.
They were both Devil Generals, but the difference between them was abnormally large.
Putting aside divine abilities and talent, in terms of the Dripping Blood Stones alone, fusing 100 Dripping Blood Stones could make one a Devil General. Fusing 999 Dripping Blood Stones was the same.
Nevertheless, the difference between the two was the difference between Heaven and Earth. The latter could destroy the former with a wave of his hand.
Taking the boundaries of the Great Wide World as an example, a Devil General corresponded to a Ruler and the law boundary.
A person who had just broken through to the early stage of a Ruler and an expert at the peak of the law boundary. The difference between the two was not something that could be filled with numbers.
The white eagle was the one who had just broken through to become a Ruler, whereas that enormous ape-man was at the peak of the law boundary. Moreover, the ape’s innate ability was far from what the eagle could compare to.
“You’re White Eagle. Lead the way!”
Suddenly, a voice sounded. The white eagle hurriedly turned around. Only a few meters behind it, a grey rock sparrow looked at it contemptuously.
The white eagle felt a chill run down its spine.
Although the other party had appeared behind it, it did not notice it at all. If the rock sparrow were to ambush it, the consequences would be…
The rock sparrow seemed to have seen through the white eagle’s thoughts. It sneered. “Killing you doesn’t need to be that troublesome.”
A king’s aura emerged from the rock sparrow’s body.
The white eagle’s face was filled with terror. This was a pressure on its life. ‘This rock sparrow in front of me is…’ The white eagle’s eyes rolled twice, then it hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, “Greetings, king!”
There were rumors of 3 big kings in Plum Mountain, so the white eagle did not know which one the rock sparrow was.
“Lead the way.” The Rock Sparrow’s gaze was gloomy. Its gaze once again coldly rested on the white eagle. “I hope you’re not lying to me.”
A gust of cold air rushed from the soles of the eagle’s feet to its forehead. The white eagle hurriedly stood up. Its wings flapped a few times, and it almost fell to the ground. It took a while before it stabilized and flew back in the direction it had come from.
The rock sparrow flapped its wings and overtook the white eagle. It grabbed the eagle and said, “Show me the way!”
Then, they disappeared into the sky like shooting stars.
For the white eagle, it would take 2 days to fly 50,000 kilometers. On the other hand, for the Devil King, it would only take a moment.
In the forest, Ou Yangming was still fusing with the Dripping Blood Stones.
His body was filled with blood lights, and the powers of countless blood essences of Ancient Demons swirled around him. Once he fused with the Dripping Blood Stones and caused damage to his body, the blood essences would fill in the gaps in his body.
One by one, the Dripping Blood Stones disappeared from Ou Yangming’s hand. Gradually, the stones in his hand were all used up.
Ou Yangming took a breath. He felt as if he was in a dream. Compared to the pain of fusing with the Dripping Blood Stone that felt like thousands of arrows were piercing his heart from before, he was simply too lucky.
He looked at the Ancient Demons’ blood essences in his hand. There were a lot of them. There were 7 to 8 bottles and jars in total, but he had not even used a tenth of the first one.
To Ou Yangming, these Ancient Demons’ blood essences were stepping stones to the peak.
From a certain point of view, Ou Yangming still needed to properly thank the Nine-sworded Ruler. If he had not sent so much Ancient Demons’ blood essences and a heaven-defying cultivation method like the Sky-devouring Art, the young fellow would probably have stopped at the Ancient Devil Warrior boundary. To fuse with 100 Dripping Blood Stones was not a task that could be completed in a day.
“I’ll go take a look tomorrow. I should be able to touch the waterfall by now.”
Ou Yangming’s eyes were filled with desire. He was very curious about what was inside the mysterious waterfall. What exactly was inside and why was there such a terrifying pressure? These were all mysteries that he needed to unravel bit by bit.
He was quite fond of exploring mysteries.
The moonlight was pleasant but suddenly, a meteor flashed above his head.
Ou Yangming raised his head slightly and frowned. Despite that, he did not care about it in his heart. There were many strong people in the Fallen Land, so it was not strange for him to meet them by chance.
He used the Earth’s Demolition Cauldron to hide his aura. Enveloped by the power of laws around him, the person flying in the sky did not notice him.
Ou Yangming sat cross-legged. The blood and Qi in his body gradually flowed. He took advantage of this night to stabilize his breakthrough.
On the beach, right in front of the waterfall.
A meteor flashed past and attracted the attention of the ferocious beasts. They looked over curiously.
On the empty ground, there was a grey rock sparrow, as well as a white eagle, which had previously left to report the news.
The white eagle was dizzy. As a flying beast, it was the first time it had such a feeling. The king’s speed was too fast. It was far beyond its limit. If it was not protected by a mysterious power, it would have turned into a dead eagle.
“White Eagle, what’s wrong? Who’s this sir?” The beasts on the beach walked over, and all of them came to watch.
The white eagle was shocked. If this group of fools offended the Devil King, they would be finished. It endured the discomfort in its body and hurriedly said, “This is the Devil King of Plum Mountain. Hurry up and bow!”
After hearing this, everyone was shocked. They hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, “Greetings, Devil King.”
The rock sparrow completely ignored these trash. It coldly looked at the white eagle and asked, “Is the Dripping Blood Stone vein you mentioned here?”
“It’s behind the waterfall. This waterfall will erupt once a day. Almost every time, Dripping Blood Stones will rush out from within,” the white eagle quickly answered
Hearing this, the rock sparrow stood up and flew toward the waterfall.
Seeing this, the white eagle hurriedly said, “Sir Devil King, be careful. The pressure over there is very strong.”
As for the other ferocious beasts, they were still kneeling on the ground. The Devil King did not let them stand up, so they did not dare to stand up. Only a few of the braver ones secretly turned their heads and looked toward the waterfall behind them.
The rock sparrow had always been arrogant. Now that it had broken through to become a Devil King, it was just the right time for it to be in high spirits. How could it listen to the white eagle’s words?
In its opinion, even if there was some pressure, it was only aimed at these trash who were at most Devil Generals. It would not have any effect on it.
Who knew, this time, it was wrong.
Just as the rock sparrow flew in, its heart shook. It felt a double pressure on its mind and body.
If it was on the ground, it would be fine. However, the pressure in the air increased by several times. Its body was still fine, but its mind was in a daze.
The rock sparrow hurriedly landed on the ground and looked forward in shock.
It was still a few hundred steps away from the waterfall.
‘Is this place really so strange?’ The Rock Sparrow’s eyes gradually became heated.
