Dominating Sword Immortal - Chapter 617

Chapter 617: 617




A demonic-bird shaped flying puppet soared above the swirling clouds in the sky . Its back was wide and smooth, capable of holding six to seven individuals . Of course, at this moment, there were only Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng on it .

Ye Chen's both hands were holding Murong Qingcheng her in an embrace, taking in her fragrant body scent .

The two had come closer during their time at Mysterious Murky City . They hadn't gotten to the final base, but they had already done everything else . At this moment, Murong Qingcheng's face was not covered with black muslin, and her beautiful face was right before Ye Chen's .

Eyebrows like a peacock's plume, supple flesh, exquisite nose standing tall, spotless and unusually red lips…Murong QIngcheng's dense black hair rolled down along her hairs, a few strands floating at the tip of Ye Chen's face . Seeing Ye Chen's gaze, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks .

'Sleeping in a beauty's arm, waking up by the sword!'

Feeling the soft body in his arms, this saying involuntarily appeared in Ye Chen's mind .

Screech!

As the two were being affectionate, a four-clawed demonic bird suddenly shot through the clouds . The bird was much larger than Ye Chen's roc puppet . Its two eyes were like lamps, and its whole body gave off a darkish red sinister aura .

The demonic bird was fond of eating flesh and blood, especially one with strong vitality . Ye Chen had already cultivated to rank three spirit body, and Murong Qingchen's demonic body's vitality was even above his . The demonic bird couldn't suppress its desire .

Seeing that Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng hadn't attained late Sea of Soul realm cultivation base, it screeched again and pounced at them, its four claws ripping through the air .

Buzz!

Still holding Murong Qingcheng with his left hand, Ye Chen took out the Gold Sword with his right hand and slashed . With that, the bird's head flew off, and its corpse fell through the cloud sea far behind the roc puppet .

"The Four Clawed Demonic Birds usually live in the Northern Sector, most concentrated in the Desolate Fire Region . Seems like we're about to reach the Desolate Fire Region . " Murong Qingcheng said .

Upon leaving Nine Dragon Lake, the two had hastened non-stop . After all, the time limit of Shadowless Poison erupting was getting increasingly close .

Sheathing the Gold Sword back, Ye Chen spread out his soul power underneath and said, "We're at the Iron Feather River . "



The Desolate Fire Region was right after Iron Feather River .

…

At the bank of Iron Feather River, a black-robed man and an old man in multi-colored clothing were standing on a reef .

Crash!

The headless carcass fell in the river, creating a sky-reaching splash .

"Killing my four-clawed bird is not something an ordinary person can do . " The old man in multi-colored didn't have a demonic beast's body, but his pupils actually stood erect, glimmering with a bizarre five-colored radiance .


Black-robed man said gloomily, "This kid is growing too fast . If given a little more time, I'm afraid nobody below the Life and Death ream would be able to deal with him . If we want to get the secrets of the undying body, this is probably our chance . If we fail here, our only option will probably be to sell the information . "

The black-robed man was precisely the Yin Demon Ancestor .

Ye Chen's fame was number one under the five young tyrants and had spread throughout the entire Sky Martial Region . Therefore, considering the day of battle between Bai Wuxue and Xia Houzun, he waited here . As he had expected, Ye Chen really did come . However, his strength left him helpless . Although he believed that he wouldn't lose to Lin Tian, but he wasn't completely confident in dealing with Ye Chen .

Therefore, without any other option, he decided not to enjoy the spoils alone, and contacted his old friend—Ancestor Sky Bird .

The latter's strength was even above his . He had once cultivated a powerful art that only demonic beasts could cultivate . It caused his Zhen Yuan to possess a demonic aura, which allowed him to tame beasts even more easily than Thunder Region's beast tamers .

The four-clawed demonic bird which just died was merely a comparatively weak tenth grade demonic beast in his herd . It didn't cause him any heartache .

…

The Desolate Fire Region was to the west of the Northern Sector .

The western part was full of mountains, and the Barbaric Mountain Range divided the region into three major regions . It was the biggest mountain range of the Northern Sector . Even considering the whole True Spirit Continent as a whole, it was considered as one of the biggest .



Arriving beside the edge of the mountain range, Ye Chen took out the map given by the Valley Lord . After studying it for a moment, he pointed northwest and said, "That should be the place . "

The mountain range was too big . Without a map, it would be like trying to fish out a needle from the ocean . It would be nigh impossible to find the Phoenix Plume Tree . Of course, even with the map, they might not necessarily find it . It depended on one's luck .

Murong Qingcheng said, "There are dozens of barbaric tribes with varying sizes in the mountains . Small tribes have a population in tens of thousands, whereas the big tribes can easily hit millions . If we really can't find it, we might to be able to trade with the tribes . These tribes have been living here for years . They might have the Phoenix Plume Tree . "

Ye Chen nodded, "Sure! If we're really at the end of rope, that will be our only choice . Although, these barbarians are aggressive and irate . So, it probably won't go down smoothly . "

Barbarians were a branch of humanity, but they didn't recognize themselves as humans . Hence, they didn't have much good feelings for humans .

Shua!

The roc puppet headed toward the northwest of the mountain range .

After a few days, Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng entered the depths of the mountain range . As far as the eye could see, ups and downs of the mountainous terrain stretched across, giving off an aura of wilderness .

"Let's head down!"

This place was precisely the region Valley Lord had told them about . But, it was merely a map, and the discrepancy could be as much as tens of thousands of li .

The two landed on a small, broken summit . It seemed as if a big battle had occurred here .

Ye Chen released his soul power and inspected surroundings, but found nothing special . He then continued to inspect different regions .

At the fifth region, Ye Chen let out a cry of surprise .

"What?" Murong Qingcheng asked .

Ye Chen said, "Three hundred li away, there is a valley brimming with a thick Qi of wilderness . Furthermore, it has a thick fog weakening my soul power . I can't inspect its depths . "

"Let's move a bit closer . "

Murong Qingcheng's soul power was not as extensive as Ye Chen's; it was restricted to a hundred li like other Sea of Soul realm experts . However, Murong Qingcheng had demonic eyes that could penetrate through the valley's depths if they were sufficiently close .

After flying for nearly three hundred li, the two could faintly see the silhouette of a valley shrouded in a thick fog .

"Open!"

Murong Qingcheng's infused her with eyes with the demonic power . Following that, the exterior of her pupils parted open, revealing a pair of golden-colored erect eyes . The golden eyes emitted an invisible ray, peering into the valley .

Beside her, Ye Chen said inwardly, "The Demonic race is worthy of a race considered superior to the humans . Any demonic expert with a cultivation base of Sea of Soul realm will have this ability . But, they seem quite strange on a human . I wonder how many human experts were sacrificed in defeating the demon race . "

After a while, Murong Qingcheng closed her demonic eyes .

"There is a rank ten Black Wind Leopard . It has already discovered us and is rushing over . There are many other tiger type beasts as well . Inside the valley is a region with a dense spirit light . My demonic eyes couldn't pierce through it . It should be the spiritual Qi emitted by herbs . "

Although the demonic eyes were powerful, they couldn't pierce through dense energies . On the other hand, soul power didn't have this drawback . Each had its own merits and weaknesses .

"Then, let's wait for a bit . " Ye Chen said .

Roar!

The valley's thick fog parted as sharp air-cleaving sounds came, followed by low growls of demonic beasts .

"Who comes to my Black Wind Valley?"

The air-cleaving sounds dissipated before a herd of tiger-type beasts appeared before Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng . It was headed by a tenth grade Black Wind Leopard . However, this Leopard had already half transformed; it stood straight with its sinister leopard head .

Ye Chen's face remained unchanged, "We have a business offer for you . "

"Business offer, what is it?" Black Wind Tiger sized up Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng . Especially for the latter, its gaze lingered on her for a long time .

Ye Chen's expression turned cold before he said indifferently, "We want a Phoenix Plume Fruit . If you have it, I can buy it for double the spirit stones . "

"Double spirit stones?" Black Wind Tiger chuckled darkly, "That's not a low price . Tell me, how many spirits stones is your so-called double the price?"

"One Phoenix Plume Fruit is worth thirty thousand upper-grade spirit stones…I'll give you sixty thousand . "

"Sixty thousand is too little . " Black Wind Leopard shook its head .

Murong Qingcheng said, "You have it?"

"Of course, I have it! But your price is too little for me . Let's do it this way—a hundred thousand spirit stones and this woman . You can have the fruit after a month . " A tyrannical expression appeared in the leopard's eyes .

Ye Chen sneered, "You don't have it!" He could see that the former was merely trying to pick a fight .

"Kid, you're really irking me . I'm giving you a chance to get lost right now . You won't have one later . " Black Wind Leopard naturally didn't have the Phoenix Plume Fruit . After cultivating to the half-human form, its taste had turned more toward humans . AndMurong Qingcheng certainly suited its tastes .

"I'll also give you a chance . If you know something about the Phoenix Plume Fruit, you can speak right now . Otherwise, you can die . " Persuasion wouldn't work on this beast with its savage nature; only tyranny would come in handy .

"Courting death! You dare talk with my boss in this manner!"

Behind the Black Wind Leopard, a ninth or tenth-grade beast roared and attacked . A majestic demonic energy turned into a beautiful ray as it shot toward Ye Chen .

"Break!" However, Ye Chen neither retreated nor dodged, just pointing his finger .

Pop!

A stone-pillar like cyan-colored finger shot through the space, destroying the light ray and continuing to make its way toward the Black Wind Panther .

As a tenth grade Demonic King, the Black Wind Panther's strength was immeasurable . Ordinary tenth level beasts were not worthy of even being its food . This was also the reason why it held Ye Chen and Murong Qingcheng in such contempt . Only a wave of its claw, which hadn't transformed into perfect limbs, was seen, and the cyan-colored finger shattered immediately .

"Soul Extinguishing Wave!"

Murong Qingcheng's attack immediately followed . An incorporeal soul wave battered its Soul Sea, causing it to become dizzy momentarily . However, it was merely a temporary effect . After all, the will of demonic beasts was not that different from humans . Moreover, Murong Qingcheng's comprehension had also not reached perfection .
