章節 44: Ancient Bloodline

Several weeks later Nie Li finally regained consciousness. Everyone quickly gathered inside his courtyard but gave him and Ye Ziyun some space to hug each other to their hearts' content. Moments later Ye Zong arrived and began scolding Nie Li, yet after some time there was still no sign of Lord Ye Mo. Just as everyone decided to look for him, there was a huge commotion.

A Demigod rank fight was happening in the centre of the City Lord's Mansion. Once the dust cleared two figures stood glaring at each other. They were Lord Ye Mo and Demon Lord. Seeing the latter Nie Li and the rest swiftly rushed up into the sky to support Lord Ye Mo.

However, even under the combined attacks of them all, Demon Lord was standing strong. Nie Li decided to use the Thunder Meteorite Sword and forced Demon Lord back, who in retaliation took Ye Zong hostage.

After ripping off Ye Zong's arm and extorting the Demon Spirit Stone from Lord Ye Mo, Demon Lord ran his hand through Ye Zong's heart. He basked in his blood but was suddenly hit by a 10 meter long Wind Blade. He was caught off guard and had half his arms cut off, but before he could find who did it he felt a strong killing intent lock on him.

Everyone saw Demon Lord kill Ye Zong and were shocked silly, except Nie Li, who went berserk and rushed at Demon Lord with a furious roar. He used all the strength he had to chop off Demon Lord's other arms, legs and head. Unfortunately, Demon Lord had a protective artifact that shielded his torso and brought it away. No matter how Nie Li tried, he was not able to stop Demon Lord's escape.

Everyone was too distraught to care about a middle aged guy, who was weakly crawling away from the battlefield. The man looked up at the sky and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. 'Master, was not kidding, I am lucky to be alive. Better get out of here.' Shortly the man disappeared into the streets.

When Demon Lord appeared, Hong Yue Xian was with Nie Li and the others. He flew into the sky to face Demon Lord, yet he did not participate in the battle, instead he concealed himself and waited.

Soon the opportunity came and he saw Demon Lord's hand penetrate Ye Zong's chest. At that exact moment Hong Yue Xian placed his invisible hand on Ye Zong and devoured him, however, he did not erase his soul, rather he left it intact and used the Law of Life to transform it into a Soul Bead, making sure the soul won't dissipate. This was a new side of his ability that he could do after absorbing Nie Li's memories.

The moment he did it, Ye Zong's body turned to ash. While Demon Lord was distracted by the Wind Blade, Hong Yue Xian escaped. The Wind Blade was sent by one of his subordinates. This was the mission he asked a volunteer for. The reason the middle aged man was in such a condition, was because he used a secret method provided by Hong Yue Xian to condense all of his power into one strike. He was too weak to walk afterwards and could only crawl away.

Hong Yue Xian watched Nie Li chop up Demon Lord and saw the latter turn into a flash of light and escape. 'Mantis, Mantis, you can't escape.' Chuckled Hong Yue Xian as he followed the light. He already got Demon Lord's scent so finding him would not be difficult, no matter what the latter did.

In the St. Ancestral Mountains there was a hidden cave, inside of which Demon Lord was lying on the ground coughing blood. "Damn you, Nie Li! To think you could hurt me to such an extent. I might not even fully recover before Draconic Ruins Realm. I underestimated you. But don't you worry, once I recover and visit the Draconic Ruins Realm, I will be back and make you all pay!" Roared Demon Lord furiously.

"No. You won't." Whispered a cold voice in his ear, shocking Demon Lord but before he could respond, he felt something invade his soul realm.

Inside Demon Lord's soul realm Hong Yue Xian was standing with a crimson wolf by his side, looking amusedly at Demon Lord's trembling soul and his dismembered, barely alive demon spirit.

"Who are you? How dare you?! I..." Shouted Demon Lord but was interrupted by Hong Yue Xian attacking him. The crimson wolf went and devoured the demon spirit first before reinforcing Hong Yue Xian. It took half a day to defeat Demon Lord, far longer and more dangerous than the others had been before.

As Hong Yue Xian absorbed the Demon Lord's memories and strength he felt his mind ready to explode as blood started to drip from his nostrils due to the strain, while his body was undergoing changes as well. The soul of Demon Lord was a reincarnation of a powerful expert and possessed much more knowledge and information than Nie Li. So much in fact that Hong Yue Xian had no choice but to seal some of the memories away to be slowly digested at a later time.

After he was done, several days passed already. Hong Yue Xian picked up the storage ring and the Demon Spirit Stone. He could feel an ancient aura from the stone. Hong Yue Xian unequipped his demon spirit and integrated the Demon Spirit Stone. The demon spirit turned out to be the World Devouring TaoTie, a Demon Spirit with an Ancient Bloodline.

Hong Yue Xian could feel his soul form seethe with delight as it, instead of possessing, consumed the demon spirit. Confused Hong Yue Xian equipped the old one back, and was surprised to discover that his demon spirit gave off a powerful Ancient aura. Through possession the demon spirit was now upgraded to the Ancient Bloodline and Hong Yue Xian could feel his soul form becoming several times stronger.

Hong Yue Xian was ecstatic as he picked up the last item, the Grade 3 Artifact that saved Demon Lord from Nie Li. After he looked one last time at the puddle of blood on the floor, he turned away and walked out of the cave.

"If you are a Demon Lord, then I am the Devil." Echoed Hong Yue Xian's triumphant laugh as he disappeared from sight.
