I Possessed a Demon Sovereign

Chapter 34

After the Black Death Divine Pearl was extracted from the Dead Sea Black Tide, the sea of death had immediately stopped. The viscous ink-like black sea that enveloped the entire place had started to disappear.

From far away, there were members of the Other Tribe observing, and when they saw this scene, they turned pale with fright.

“The Dead Sea Black Tide is neutralized so quickly?”

“Did the Demon Sovereign make a move personally? His injuries are indeed fine?”

“It didn’t feel like it was done by the Demon Sovereign…”

“If the Demon Sovereign didn’t do it personally, how did the Dead Sea Black Tide get neutralized?”

The Other Tribesmen were looking at each other in dismay while they were in an uproar.

“Retreat! We are unable to handle this situation anymore. Immediately report back to our King and let him decide.”

“What about Ninth Brother?”

“It seems like he isn’t dead yet and has been captured alive by the Demon Cult members…”

“If we don’t care about him and just abandon him, our King will probably be enraged.”

“There is no way to save him! If we go and save him, all of us will be dragged in too. He is the one that failed after striving to achieve extraordinary things and even lost our King’s Black Death Divine Pearl. He has to take the responsibility himself. The priority for us is to quickly report back to our King and tell him the truth, that the Demon Sovereign’s injury isn’t significant. Leave the rest of the matter for our King to decide!”

“Sigh… this is the only thing we can do.”

This group of Other Tribesmen didn’t dare to continue staying and quickly left.

On the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage, Helian Zhe didn’t blame his comrades for abandoning and disregarding his life or death. Since the moment he insisted on activating the Black Death Divine Pearl to strive for this credit, he was already prepared to fail too.

If he succeeded, his name would be echoed throughout the ages. From then onwards, none of the subordinates under the Left Sage King would have dared to despise him. The entire Northern Desert Other Tribe and even the entire Grand Divine Province would have been surprised by his achievement.

If he failed, there would be nothing good to say. The winner would be crowned, and the loser would fall. If he couldn’t succeed, then he would at least be dying for a good cause.

However, Helian Zhe never expected for him to lose so thoroughly and so easily. The Dead Sea Black Tide that was produced by the Black Death Divine Pearl was good enough to wipe out all below the martial emperor stage. No matter how many martial kings there were, they wouldn’t be able to withstand the rising tide of the sea of black death.

Every dead enemy would serve as nourishment for the Dead Sea Black Tide and make it stronger. As time elapsed, the Black Death Evil Force would also constantly corrupt the living foes. The longer the Dead Sea Black Tide lasted, the stronger it would become, and the enemy would also become weaker.

In the end, there should have been only one outcome… Wherever the dead sea reached, lives would be extinguished, and nothing would be left behind.

A martial emperor might be able to defend himself, but to neutralize this Dead Sea Black Tide, it was still extremely difficult.

Helian Zhe knew that the Black Death Divine Pearl had its flaws. The Left Sage King Xiuzhe had given him pointers when the artifact was handed over to Helian Zhe. It was also because of this reason that Helian Zhe was able to activate and control this artifact.

However, it was obviously the first time that the Demon Cult witnessed this artifact, and they had never made contact with this Black Death Divine Pearl before. How could they possibly know that the Black Death Divine Pearl had six flawed places, and they could be used to neutralize the Dead Sea Black Tide?

Furthermore, it wasn’t the Demon Sovereign Chen Luoyang who personally did it. He gave a casual pointer to his subordinates, and they neutralized it with ease!

To be truthful, if the Demon Sovereign had exhibited his astounding cultivation to forcefully neutralize the Dead Sea Black Tide, Helian Zhe might not have been as shocked. But now, his cognition had been completely overturned.

As such, Helian Zhe was suspicious about his life, and he found it hard to lift his head to take a glance.

Chen Luoyang who was seated high up in the throne seemingly became surreal.

The age gap between the two of them was actually very narrow. It was already rare in the Grand Divine Province for Helian Zhe to reach the martial master stage at such a young age. However, when compared to that person seated on the throne, the difference in strength was so far off.

Now that his mind was slightly clearer than before, Helian Zhe thought of another problem. The Demon Cult Master might not have made a move personally, but it seemed like he already realized that the Left Sage King wasn’t here.

It was why he said, “Child, don’t steal something from your parents and bring it out to play.”

Helian Zhe wasn’t angry for getting treated like a kid by the Demon Cult Master who was almost the same age as him. After all, he knew about the obvious difference between them.

However, how was the Demon Cult Master able to determine that the Left Sage King wasn’t here so quickly? While thinking about this point, Helian Zhe’s heart was at a loss.

Did I reveal a flaw earlier and allowed the Demon Cult Master to see through it?

While feeling confused, Helian Zhe felt a chill deep in his heart. Above him was an unfathomable youth with eyes that emitted black radiance; the youth was just like a demon god that made him feel unprecedented fear.

Chen Luoyang glanced, with a composed expression, at Helian Zhe who was frozen stiff on the ground. However, his feelings were rather complicated. To a certain extent, Helian Zhe was hoisted by his own petard.

When the Dead Sea Black Tide extended over and devoured thousands of kilometers of mountains, Chen Luoyang realized that the mysterious black pot had an increase in blood-red serum.

It meant that apart from those spirit beasts, there were humans who had perished in this disaster. Furthermore, the number was rather significant. In the Qian Prefecture’s towering mountains and precipitous ridges, the environment was treacherous; therefore, there were little signs of human habitation.

However, the range of the Dead Sea Black Tide was excessively immense. In this vast area, there were still quite a number of people residing here. Wherever the Dead Sea reached, nothing survived.

During this period of time, Chen Luoyang had been observing the rules of how the blood-red serum changed in quantity.

The black pot’s blood-red serum would only increase if a martial dao cultivator had died within a certain distance from himself. Ordinary people would not cause any changes.

The black pot’s blood-red serum had increased, but due to this disaster of the Dead Sea Black Tide, there were definitely plenty of lives that had been lost.

When facing the black sea of death earlier, Chen Luoyang settled his mind forcefully and warned himself to maintain composure.

He communicated with the black pot in his mind and asked two questions.

Provide the information on the Other Tribe’s Left Sage King Xiuzhe.

How to neutralize this Dead Sea Black Tide?

Either question used up a large amount of blood-red serum. Due to this disaster, the amount of blood-red serum was just enough to use.

After the two questions, the black pot was nearly dried up. It was very fortunate that Chen Luoyang obtained the answers that he wanted.

Firstly, he looked through the life experiences of the Left Sage King Xiuzhe. Due to the pressing time, Chen Luoyang skipped through the parts at the front and immediately read the final sentence.

It stated that Xiuzhe had split up with Helian Zhe and the others to search for Chen Luoyang and his group in Qian Prefecture. After splitting up, there weren’t any orders for them to rendezvous.

This meant that the Dead Sea Black Tide was conducted by Helian Zhe and the others. Left Sage King Xiuzhe wasn’t hiding behind the black sea and waiting for an opportunity to strike.

As such, Chen Luoyang let down his final worries and calmly deployed his subordinates to neutralize this Dead Sea Black Tide. The main culprit, Helian Zhe, was then captured by Xiao Yuntian.

“Sort out this place.” Chen Luoyang waved his hand casually.

The Demon Cult members responded respectfully, “We shall comply with Cult Master’s orders.”

As the Dead Sea Black Tide dissipated, it left behind a whole field of bones and rotting flesh. Soon enough, this place would certainly develop a plague, and it would spread to the surroundings. The land would then become completely desolate.

The Qian Prefecture was the Demon Cult’s territory, and they naturally weren’t going to leave it like this. To them, it wasn’t a difficult task either.

Without the horrific Black Death Evil Force that was contained within the Dead Sea Black Tide, the Demon Cult members had plenty of methods to complete this task.

Daoist Insect who was under Zhang Tianheng had released a massive number of poisonous insects he had bred to immediately clean up the remaining bones and rotting flesh.

“Cult Master may leave first. The scene is filthy and nasty. It is best not to disrupt your peace,” Zhang Tianheng stated.

Chen Luoyang nodded nonchalantly while the Six Dragons Sovereign Carriage departed again. He took a glance at Helian Zhe and didn’t say much, just imprisoned him.

Chen Luoyang had given the special instructions to capture him alive. The most important factor was that Helian Zhe was still alive and in his hands. As for what Helian Zhe was thinking, it didn’t matter.
