Chương 35: Doom Casket of Terror

Wu Li asked, "Master, how will I defeat such a powerful evil-doer?"

Liang Xia sighed and said, "Wu Li, you won't be able to defeat him, just try to survive."

"His cultivation level at his peak might have been superior even to mine. Now that he is recultivating, his battle prowess is shocking."

Wu Li was unwilling to accept such a defeat, "Then I will have to give up on the three inheritances?"

Liang Xia said, "Yes, there's no other way. Even if you and that Xu Long brat try to defeat the Ancient Devil together, you might not be able to do so."

Wu Li sneered and said, "No matter what, I need to avenge Brother Yang's setback. I promised that nothing will happen if he goes in this Secret Realm, but he died. How can I, Wu Li, show my face to him in the future if I don't avenge him?"

Liang Xia sighed and didn't say anything.

Wu Li looked at Xu Long and said, "Xu Long! Although we are enemies, I think that we should both work together to defeat the Ancient Devil that possessed Wu Feng. You should know that his battle strength is extremely terrifying, considering how he was able to defeat two Soul Palace experts."

"Even though their cultivation was suppressed to the perfection stage Core Formation Realm, that doesn't mean that their experience suddenly disappeared. And yet, they were defeated by someone in the late stage."

Xu Long glared at Wu Li and said, "Don't think that I will trust you easily! How do I know that you won't stab me in the back when we face the Ancient Devil?"

Wu Li said, "I will make a Soul Oath that I won't harm you until we deal with the Ancient Devil. You must also make a Soul Oath if you want me to trust you."

Xu Long hesitated for a moment and then said, "Fine. I swear on my soul that I won't harm you until we deal with the Ancient Devil. But after that, I will definitely kill you."

"I also swear on my soul that I won't harm you until we deal with the Ancient Devil."

A shocking change appeared since both Xu Long and Wu Li made a Soul Oath.

As they spoke those words, a faint light flashed in their eyes, indicating that their souls were bound by a contract. If they broke their oath, they would suffer severe consequences, such as losing their cultivation or even their lives.

Xu Long reluctantly stopped the fight with Wu Li and shouted, "Brothers and sisters. An Ancient Devil has appeared. We need to fight against him, unless we all want to die."

Xu Long's faction quickly retreated. No one was fighting anymore and they all paid attention to the Ancient Devil who was greedily absorbing the Blood Qi and the Soul Essence.

Ye Sha opened his eyes as he looked at everyone. His gaze was unexpectedly calm. "Trash also dares to go against me?"

Ye Sha chuckled as he said, "Wow, wow, wow! Look at all these cute little bunnies trying to bite me, Devil Sovereign Ye Sha, the big bad wolf! How adorable!"

"Alright, I'll play with you guys."

Ye Sha coldly laughed, "Break!"

Ye Sha's cultivation surprisingly advanced to the perfection stage Core Formation Realm, and his aura was extremely domineering.

Wu Li, Liang Kuangshi, Lin Xiaoqing, Zhen Longwei, Xu Long, and the rest of the cultivators that were in the Secret Realm all wore terrified expressions.

They watched in horror as Ye Sha's aura suddenly surged like a tidal wave, breaking through the barrier of the late stage Core Formation Realm and reaching the perfection stage in an instant. His body was surrounded by a dark and sinister energy that made everyone feel a chill in their bones.

"How is this possible?! He advanced to the perfection stage in such a short amount of time? This is beyond terrifying!"

"This is insane! Breaking through to the perfection stage with just a word. Is this what normal cultivators are able to achieve? He must have cheated somehow!"

"You idiot! How can he cheat when he's the reincarnation of an Ancient Devil! Do you know what that means? He's not a human, he's a monster!"

"Yes, and he was a Devil Sovereign nonetheless! That means that his cultivation realm must've reached the legendary Mortal Extremity Realm! The realm that only exists in myths and legends! The realm that surpasses all other realms!"

Hiss…

When everyone thought that they were standing before the reincarnation of such a mighty figure, they couldn't help but tremble!

Ye Sha grinned as he saw these mortals tremble in awe in front of his identity and said "Hehe! That's right, bow down to me, peasants. I just sneezed and reached the perfection stage!"

"Pathetic, just pathetic."

Ye Sha sneered as he unleashed his Netherworld Fiendish Qi and performed the Soul Chasing Wind technique.

"I'll take care of the weaklings first, and then deal with the strong ones later. I don't want to waste their valuable Blood Qi and Soul Essence!"

Ye Sha darted around the field and slaughtered everyone with a single attack from his claws.

Wu Li felt a surge of fear as he witnessed Ye Sha's swift and deadly attacks on his enemies, slaying them with one blow.

Wu Li exclaimed in dread, "He's too fearsome! How can he move like a blur?"

Liang Xia shook his head and said, "Truly… He's a monster! The Jiaolong Continent's standards can't measure his power. He can fight against the 7th layer Core Formation Realm cultivators, and he hasn't even formed his Essence Foundation yet."

Wu Li was hopeless but he still decided to put up a fight.

"I can't just sit here and die. I have to struggle for my own survival."

Wu Li and the others tried to attack Ye Sha, but the latter easily avoided their strike.

One by one, the cultivators fell under Ye Sha's merciless attacks.

Ye Sha shook his head and muttered, "I guess I have to spare their lives from now on, or else their Blood Qi and Soul Essence will dissipate. Fine, I'll just knock them out."

Wu Li yelled, "Lin Xiaoqing, unleash your clan's secret technique!"

Lin Xiaoqing nodded and began to activate her clan's secret technique, the Extreme Ice Dragon Secret Technique.

But before she could finish the activation, Ye Sha snorted and used his Soul Chasing Wind technique to jump in front of Lin Xiaoqing and knock her out.

Wu Li's face turned white as he saw his lover fall unconscious. "You monster! You have no pity for women?"

Ye Sha was confused and speechless. "Kid, stop wasting my time and accept your death!"

With a flash of his Soul Chasing Wind technique, Ye Sha appeared in front of Wu Li and delivered a devastating blow to his head, knocking him unconscious.

Within minutes, he had slaughtered or subdued everyone in his path, leaving behind a trail of blood and corpses.

Ye Sha decided to go open all the three inheritances.

He first opened the purple chest that was adorned with intricate patterns. As he opened it, he was stunned to see that one of its contents was an extremely rare object.

"A Spiritual Flower! It is able to raise one's Spiritual Root to a Heaven Grade Spiritual Root, regardless of attribute. This is a priceless treasure that many cultivators would kill for!"

"There's also the Mystical Dreamscape Painting, which was one of the back-bones of the Five Elements Pavilion. It can connect to a dreamlike world that can store various items and creatures."

Ye Sha opened the second chest, the golden chest that was decorated with jewels and pearls. He also saw that there were precious treasures there as well.

"Another Spiritual Flower! Were Spiritual Flowers so common in this place? How lucky!"

"There's also an extremely rare Wonder, the Azure Dragon Guardian of the East!"

He then opened the third chest, the black chest, which was engraved with mysterious runes.

For some reason Ye Sha felt a familiar aura emanating from it.

"I feel a strange connection to this black chest, for some reason…" Ye Sha muttered under his breath.

Ye Sha was ecstatic by the contents of the black chest. There were treasures that came from his Ancient Devil Race's experts, and there was also a treasure that was very important to him.

"The Doom Casket of Terror! I didn't expect to get it back so early..."

However, he soon choked with rage when he saw what happened to the Doom Casket of Terror. It was now a pink casket, instead of a terrifying black casket, and instead of there being skulls of Demonic Beasts, there were flowers on top of it.

It looked like a toy for little girls, not a weapon for Devil Sovereigns!

"Who did it? Who dares to make fun of me in such a way? This is an outrage! This is a blasphemy! This is a catastrophe! How can I face my ancestors with this casket? How can I intimidate my foes with this casket? I will make them pay for this! I will make them regret this! I will make them cry like babies!"

Ye Sha was extremely furious when he saw the appearance of his Doom Casket of Terror, his supreme Heaven Grade Treasure.

All of a sudden, the sky and the ground shook as an old man popped up in front of Ye Sha.

"Vast Heaven old geezer! I can't believe that you still have a bit of your brain left after the Immortals came down and wiped out the Azure Profound Star Sect!"

Sage Vast Heaven glared at him and said, "Ye Sha, I can't believe that you are still as unscrupulous as ever! Rampaging inside the Secret Realm of my sect, truly despicable behavior!"

Ye Sha snorted and said, "What? Are you also jealous of my treasures just like your worthless disciple, Emperor Crimson Sun?"

Sage Vast Heaven nodded without any shame, "Of course. I want to snatch these treasures from you. They don't suit you."

Ye Sha laughed as if he had heard the best joke ever, "I don't think that you can make me hand over these treasures. How are you going to do that?"

Sage Vast Heaven sneered, "Oh well, I guess I could just demolish this whole Secret Realm and take you down with it. It'll be a grand finale!"

Ye Sha's face registered pure shock, "Unbelievable! Are you some kind of devil in disguise? Shameless!"

Ye Sha refused to give up. "Old geezer Vast Heaven, you can't stop me. I'll just escape with the Doom Casket of Terror. Let's see if you can catch me!"

Sage Vast Heaven saw the Doom Casket of Terror's appearance and laughed out loud. "You want to risk your life? Be my guest. But don't forget that if the Secret Realm collapses, the space will become unstable. Even your Doom Casket of Terror may not save you!"

Ye Sha was stubborn. "I don't care. You are too despicable, Vast Heaven geezer. You can't make me leave with nothing."

Sage Vast Heaven shook his head and said, "Alright, alright, I'll give you the treasures that belong to your Ancient Devil Race that the Azure Profound Star Sect has gathered over the years. They are mostly junk anyway."

Ye Sha grinned wickedly and said, "You give me my race's treasures? You are so generous, Sage Vast Heaven. I have to thank you for your magnanimity!"

Ye Sha stuffed all the treasures of the Ancient Devil Race into the Doom Casket of Terror.

"Hey, old man. I'm going, I'm going. But before I go, can you tell me who's the lucky guy who will inherit the Azure Profound Star Sect?" Ye Sha asked, trying to find out who he should target next.

Sage Vast Heaven glared at him and yelled, "Get lost! You Ancient Devil punk!"

Ye Sha shrugged and said innocently, "Okay, okay… Don't be so angry!"

Ye Sha hopped into the Doom Casket of Terror and soon, the casket soared out of the Secret Realm.

Sage Vast Heaven saw the casket flying by couldn't help but laugh. It looked like a pink coffin with flowers on it. It was so cute and adorable. It was hard to believe that it belonged to a Devil Sovereign who was supposed to be fierce and ruthless.

Ye Sha felt like crying. He wished he could hide his face and his casket from the world. He cursed whoever had tampered with his Doom Casket of Terror. He swore to get revenge on them someday.
