Martial Ascent to Divinity

Chapter 292 Selling Favor


Under the leadership of Snow Mountain Rock, Zhou Leng headed to the Ice Snow Divine Sect's camp.

Shen Jun and other Demon Worship Sect's demonized martial artists hurriedly followed, fearing a demon attack.

Many demons discussed among themselves.

"Since when can human martial artists ride on a demon's head?"

"When they become a Martial Saint."

"..."

"Whoever dares to offend the Ice Snow Divine Sect and the Pale Queen, go ahead and find trouble with him. I certainly won't."

"Actually, the Heart of Lava wouldn't have died so easily if not for the brutal surprise attack aimed to kill."

"The Pale Queen and her Hanging Moon Legion naturally dislike fire-type demons. The more he kills, the happier the Pale Queen is."

"When the ice demons from the Hanging Moon Legion return, they might even support him."

"I don't trust humans, especially martial artists. Some of them have minds filthier than Demon Spirit Masters."

"If you're not of demigod bloodline, stay away from him."

Everyone looked at the speaking demon, who resembled a human wearing a magnificent black robe with gold trimmings below the neck. Their skin was pale, glowing softly, and emitted a scholarly aristocratic aura.

Above the neck, billows of black smoke surrounded a blood-red book, its cover embossed with veins forming a hexagram.

Desecration Acolyte.

Lives in the Desecration Library on the seventh level of Demon Purgatory, a member of the Desecration Scholar Legion, led by the Book of All Evils.

"What, did you discover something?"

"I sensed a strong aura of Demon Purgatory from him, his rank far surpasses your imagination," said the Desecration Acolyte.

"What exactly is going on? What is his identity?"

"Either a projection of a Great Demon or an important collaborator of a Great Demon in the human world, given top-level demonic power. His heartbeat contains a power that makes me wary."

"No wonder he dared to kill the Heart of Lava, perhaps he's the Pale Queen's servant."

"Desecration Acolyte, you should report this to the invincible Deep Dark Fury."

"Of course." The Desecration Acolyte turned away.

The other demons made way.

Desecration Scholars aren't inherently strong, but as Demon Prison Military Advisors, they are often given high regard within demon ranks.

Desecration Scholars are also targets all demons protect, for if a Desecration Scholar dies, the head of the Desecration Book transforms into a true Book of Magic, revealing memories and information.

To enemies of Demon Purgatory, every Book of Profanity is an extremely important source of intelligence.

Generally, Desecration Scholars are rarely allowed near battlefields.

The Desecration Acolyte walked into a large, dark cave at the back of the village.

"Invincible Deep Dark Fury, I've discovered an unusual human martial artist..." The Desecration Acolyte slowly explained the events and analysis.

"What do you want to do?" a deep voice echoed from within.

Strong auras wafted with the voice like a breeze.

The Desecration Acolyte pondered for a moment and said, "This person's rank is high and they hold an important position in the Ice Snow Divine Sect, unlike a spy. I'm just afraid he might compete with you for interests. His background is uncertain, and provoking the Pale Queen or other Great Demons could be disadvantageous to you."

"Ordinary Great Demons are manageable by my father, but leaders like the Pale Queen are indeed troublesome."

"I propose sending a strong force to test him. If he loses, it's unrelated to you, simply forcing him away. If he wins, he will undoubtedly stir the demons' resentment once again, allowing you to draw him in with goodwill, which he will likely accept."

"Excellent. If he's indeed as you say, with the strength of the top fifty of the youth rankings, he would greatly help in reaching the peak."

"I fear he might be after the Dragon Blood Flower."

"As long as he's strong enough to aid me in reaching the summit, sharing a Dragon Blood Flower is of no consequence!"

"You are truly magnanimous."

"Proceed."

"Yes."

The Desecration Acolyte turned to leave, the dark cave behind letting out a dim glow from two pairs of huge black-gold eyes.

Soon, the Desecration Acolyte hurriedly returned.

"What, do you now require me to appease the demons' plight and pull him in?" Deep Dark Fury slowly rose.

The Desecration Acolyte looked awkward and said, "No."

"What happened?"

"My initial plan was to have the Flesh Giant, ranked 97th on the youth list, challenge him. Unexpectedly, the Ten-Eyed Bow suddenly sniped him from a distance. In rage, he killed over twenty. If you don't intervene soon, he'll wipe out all demons, leaving no resentment..."

A fierce wind rose inside the cave, a large dark shadow swept across the sky, flying out of the entrance.

The Desecration Acolyte awkwardly scratched the top of the Desecration Book like scratching his head and hurriedly ran back.

"Stop!"

A pitch-black giant dragon over twenty meters long flapped its wings, hovering in the air.

It looked like a Black Dragon, with two eyes on each side of its head, the dragon horns behind its head arranged like a fan of thick sharp spikes.

At the neck and spine connection, a second black dragon head grew, eyes tightly shut, its mouth slightly open, revealing a black fireball spinning rapidly within.

Legend has it that the Starry Sky Spine-headed Demon Dragon is several thousand kilometers long, with its back covered in spine-headed dragon heads.

Deep Dark Fury hovered like dark clouds in the air, gazing below.

Amongst numerous corpses, a figure quickly gathered magic spirit bags or storage items from demons, completely ignoring him.

The remaining demons stood afar, still in shock.

Whether demons, sea sirens, beastmen, giant dragons, or Demon Worship Sect humans, their eyes were filled with lingering disbelief.

No resentment at all.

Deep Dark Fury looked at the figure collecting spoils, slightly squinting his eyes.

The Desecration Acolyte was right; from this person, he sensed a special aura.

Not the aura of Demon Purgatory, but of the starry sky.

The Starry Sky Bloodline is the most prideful power of the Deep Dark Fury lineage.

Though they have lost their heritage, they can at most ascend to a Great Demon, which is a Demigod, yet they are still targets of solicitation by major Lords.

Unexpectedly, this human also carries a similar aura.

I wonder if it's a cultivation technique heritage or a bloodline heritage.

Deep Dark Fury glanced over the corpses.

Clean, swift wounds, incredibly destructive.

Before his father bestowed upon him the Blood of a Great Demon, his destructive power was exactly like this.

The opponent is merely human.

The other demons raised their heads to sneak a peek at Deep Dark Fury, finding it more perplexing that the usually highly irate Deep Dark Fury was now silently waiting without any words.

This human has killed so many, shouldn't he be breathing Dragon Breath to vent his rage?

Why is he just quietly watching the human plunder the spoils?

Zhou Leng, after collecting the spoils, looked up at the massive Deep Dark Fury.

No matter how much he had seen on video or on the youth ranking list, it couldn't diminish the shock of their first encounter.

Deep Dark Fury resembled an ocean suspended in the sky, harboring a storm to destroy the world.

This feeling, Zhou Leng had only experienced it in the Three Sons of Ancient River.

Zhou Leng politely cupped his fists and said, "Guan Canglong greets the invincible Deep Dark Fury."

All the demons gradually stepped back, each realizing that a storm was about to erupt.

The wrath of Deep Dark Fury would engulf everything.

"You are the most powerful Vitality Stage Martial Artist I've ever seen. Good, very good." Upon hearing this human powerhouse add the prefix "invincible", Deep Dark Fury's rage dissipated entirely.

Being praised as "invincible" by such a strong slayer of demons was more gratifying than being called that by hundreds of useless ones.

The demons quickened their retreat, hearing that Deep Dark Fury's "good, very good" sounded like sarcasm.

"Would you be willing to help me charge the highest mountain?" Deep Dark Fury asked.

"It would be an honor to join forces with Deep Dark Fury."

"Hahahahaha... Good! From now on, you are one of us here. Whoever dares disrespect, kill!"

Deep Dark Fury laughed heartily, turned, and flew back to the cave.

Leaving behind a field of disordered demons.

Soon, many demons realized that Deep Dark Fury acknowledged this Guan Canglong's strength.

As for the demons that died, so be it.

Shen Jun, hiding in the distance, let out a long sigh of relief.

Azure Scale looked toward Guan Canglong, eyes flashing.

"Unexpectedly, there is a human stronger than Zhou Leng! This person is too formidable, not to mention a hundred times stronger than Zhou Leng, even I am overwhelmed in admiration! From now on, this human, Guan Canglong, is the target I will pursue. As for Zhou Leng, that's in the past."

Azure Scale clenched the right fist, filled with fighting spirit.

"Congratulations to Lord Guan Canglong!" The Desecration Library aide dashed forward, mimicking the gesture of the Human Race by cupping fists.

Zhou Leng also acknowledged the position of the Desecration Scholar, nodding lightly.

The other demons, upon hearing the aide's address, knew the tide had turned.

To be called lord by the Desecration Library aide, is to possess a status rivaling the Innate.

The people from the Ice Snow Divine Sect smiled, indeed, the one chosen by the Frosty Hand Master is a terrifyingly strong human agent.

This person will surely be able to lead the Demon Worship Sect in the future!

Members of the Demon Worship Sect came over, respectfully addressing him as lord.

The Beastmen, whose status is far lower than that of the Demons and Sea Sirens, came scampering over to offer their congratulations.

Some Sea Sirens, Demons, and Giant Dragons also came to congratulate.

Only a few demons who were too closely associated with the slain demons watched from afar.

Zhou Leng regretfully glanced at the Giant Dragons, wondering why they didn't act rashly for once.

A few Giant Dragons suddenly felt a cold breeze, their Dragon Scales lightly quivering.

The Demon Alliance's camp remained quiet, uneventful through the night.

Dragon Country, Ancient River Ruins Research Institute.

One by one, the demonized fighters arrived, with Grandmaster Special Envoys arriving in succession.

Among them was Chen Changyi, the Seventh Division commander closest to the Ancient River Ruins Research Institute.

In a spacious room, under bright white lights, the Grandmaster Special Envoys sat behind a long table.

All the Divine Text Experts sat on chairs in front of the long table.

"The process of the Ancient River Trial, truly can't be disclosed?" one of the Grandmaster Special Envoys asked.

"Truly cannot, we can only disclose Divine Text knowledge."

"Only possible when Zhou Leng comes back?"

"Yes, without Zhou Leng, our actions could very likely trigger divine retribution."

The Grandmaster Special Envoys exchanged glances.

"Then let's wait for Zhou Leng and his return, for now, summarize your Divine Text research findings."

The Divine Text Experts all fell silent.

"What's the matter?" the Grandmaster Special Envoys were puzzled.

"This time, summarizing the Divine Text research is a bit complicated. Let's put it this way, the primary work of the Mysterious Master was studying Divine Texts. Our primary work is studying the Mysterious Master's translations."

The Grandmaster Special Envoys seemed unsure of how to continue.

Chen Changyi changed the subject: "What about the whereabouts of the Blood of Tyranny?"

The gazes of the Grandmaster Special Envoys sharpened.
