The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Chapter 770: Chapter 771: Zone of Chaos – Flame Demon

"I don’t believe you would kill me. After all, we’ve been through thick and thin together, and the energy within us is the same now. Let’s take some time to comprehend this new gun energy."

Ye Mo said with a faint smile.

He was just about to experience this new gun energy when he saw Little Jing looking at him with a face of grievance. Remembering what happened earlier, he patted Little Jing’s head.

"You fool, you almost got me killed. What was that stone anyway?"

Of course, Ye Mo wouldn’t truly blame Little Jing. He started stroking his head again.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Little Jing let out a few cries, but Ye Mo couldn’t understand what he was saying. Logically, such a powerful demon beast should have been able to speak human language by now.

"That is the Immortal Music Stone. The Immortal Music Spell is only activated through a will trace legacy from the Ancient Shenrui, which powers the Immortal Music Stone."

Hong Ling explained: "However, obtaining the Immortal Music Stone is not enough. To activate it, one must refine it and decipher the spell runes on it."

It’s like acquiring an ancient zither; to play it, you need the music sheets.

The spell runes on this Immortal Music Stone need to be deciphered to activate powerful Immortal Music Spells.

"With the Immortal-Slaying Holy Flame, refining this Immortal Music Stone shouldn’t be a problem, but the spell runes on the stone are not as simple as Immortal runes."

Ye Mo held the Immortal Music Stone, frowning slightly.

He knew full well how powerful the Immortal Music Spell was. If he could activate the Immortal Music Stone, it would be like having another trump card.

"Gu Xingyue, let’s enter the Mysterious Primordial Shenrui Land now."

Although the crisis was over, their goal was still unmet. The resources were definitely worth seizing; the first round was already precious, and the second round would be even rarer and more powerful.

"Yes, let’s go together."

Gu Xingyue had also somewhat grasped the Taiji Heavenly Sha Spear Qi, feeling quite satisfied. This wasn’t like the simple Blood Fiend Spear or Black Spear Technique; it had become a much stronger gun energy.

Little Jing returned to the Sumeru ring to continue sleeping.

As Ye Mo and Gu Xingyue ventured further side by side, their spiritual senses expanded. Soon, they exited a passageway and arrived at a place that made Ye Mo feel a bit odd.

It was an underground pit, drenched in magma, all dyed in crimson.

"What immense Yuan Chi of Heaven and Earth? Could it be ancient original qi? If I secretly absorb this ancient original qi, it will surely awaken a significant portion of my Profound Dragon Powers."

Feeling the surge of energy around him, this wasn’t just a simple concentration; it carried an ancient aura, brimming with immense energy.

This kind of qi was inaccessible to ordinary people, but Ye Mo was secretly absorbing the ancient original qi.

"There are three over there, no, four of them, and that person is not Hai Dalong."

While absorbing the ancient original qi, Ye Mo began to observe around him. He quickly sensed that Tuoba Bubai, Man Tianhao, and Man Tian League were in the distance, but the one leading was someone Ye Mo had never seen, and wasn’t one of the eight.

The four hadn’t noticed Ye Mo and Gu Xingyue had also entered the Mysterious Primordial Shenrui Land. In their eyes, Ye Mo and Gu Xingyue were already dead, having chosen the Yang passageway and reached the secret realm, while Ye Mo and Gu Xingyue’s delay was evident death in the Yin passageway.

Ahead of the three stood a black-clothed man, hands folded behind him.

The four didn’t notice Ye Mo and Gu Xingyue, maybe not even thinking to look behind, their attention solely focused forward, with excitement and anticipation in their hearts.

Feeling the energy fluctuations from the black-clothed man, Ye Mo was slightly shocked: "I can sense a trace of space power emanating from this black-clothed man. Could he be a Cosmos Realm expert?"

"If not a Cosmos Realm expert, then at least Half-Step Universe. He must have used space power to enter this realm alone."

Gu Xingyue, seeing the scene before her, grew serious.

"Chaos Palace has placed three Resource Palaces here, but they are guarded by a Secret Realm Flame Demon. To enter the palaces successfully, one must defeat the Secret Realm Flame Demon."

The black-clothed man said plainly: "Join me in slaying the Secret Realm Flame Demon. I only need the Ancient Flame Demon Seed."

"Alright!"

Even Tuoba Bubai felt threatened by the black-clothed man, sensing an exceedingly powerful presence within. This Chaos Palace wasn’t benevolent enough to let them exchange resources easily.

"You three set up the Seal Formation here; I’ll lure the Secret Realm Flame Demon out."

As the black-clothed man spoke, he darted into the cave.

Tuoba Bubai and the others immediately got serious, waving their arms.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Three rays of light, like shooting stars, danced and interwove in the air, forming a brilliant net. Endless runes covered it, endless immense energy surged, connecting in a grand circle, exuding an ominous, majestic aura.

The formation’s range spanned a hundred feet, slowly descending, covering an open area before disappearing.

Watching this, Ye Mo and Gu Xingyue were a bit astonished. Two Seven Star City Lords, and one Six Star Castellan working together to set up an array; what were they dealing with?

"Could it be the Secret Realm Flame Demon?"

Gu Xingyue was stunned: "The Mysterious Primordial Shenrui Land has ten secret realms. The one we’re in should be the Flame Demon Secret Realm, with the guardian evil beast being the Secret Realm Flame Demon, its strength at Heavenly Profound Complete Realm. Its defense is terrifying; even I couldn’t contend with it."

Tuoba Bubai and his companions held their breaths, staying vigilant, their gazes fixed on the cave, with a tense atmosphere forming around.

As a figure shot out, an all-encompassing ancient aura erupted, suffocating everyone.

"The black-clothed man is out, could it be that he’s brought the Secret Realm Flame Demon out?"

Ye Mo widened his eyes.

Tuoba Bubai, Man Tiancheng, and Man Tianhao all grew solemn. The guardian demon beasts of the Mysterious Ancient Shenrui Land were far from easy to handle.

Rumble!

As the black-clothed man landed before the trio, a thunderous boom, like rolling thunder, erupted from within the cave.

The silhouette, like a stampede of horses, caused massive fissures on the cave’s surrounding walls, with red-hot rocks falling piece by piece.

Ye Mo focused his gaze, seeing distant rolling heat waves surging forward. Soon everyone saw a gigantic hand, seemingly tempered by magma, striking out like a colossal fiery Five Fingers Mountain, bearing down upon them.

Boom!

A surge of scorching waves erupted, making everyone feel slightly burnished.

"Is this the Secret Realm Flame Demon? How big is this thing?"

Tuoba Bubai was shocked.

With countless flames spurting out, volcanoes crumbling, and the ground shattering, a colossal figure appeared entirely before everyone’s eyes.
