Miracle Throne Chapter 111

Chapter 111: Demon's lair

What was happening in the demon's lair?

Even if he lost his curiosity, the Miracle Commerce's merchandise still haven't been retrieved yet.  He had no choice but to go down and investigate.

Only, the demon's lair's surroundings were guarded by over ten black clothed men.  Each one of them was a terrifying person.  They all had cultivations at the peak 9th Body Refinement Layer and Chu Tian would have to spend a lot of effort to take care of them.

Even if he chose to stealthy method and sneaked in without being seen, a single person with a single sword couldn't take out all of them without making a sound.  

The Black Wind Stronghold had over a thousand bandits present so he couldn't make any rash moves.  If he disturbed the bee's nest, Chu Tian could just forget about finding out the secret hidden in the demon's lair.

He had no choice.

He could only us that!

Chu Tian walked from his hiding place behind the large stone and openly walked over to the demon's lair.

Because Chu Tian was still wearing the Black Wind bandits' uniform, the black clothed people were surprised and were unable to recognize who he was.  They simultaneously drew their weapons and shouted, "Where are you from!  This is a restricted area, don't you know?  Quickly scram unless you don't want your life anymore!"

Hong!

An invisible pressure suddenly burst forth!

A fierce outline appeared behind Chu Tian.  Just like an ancient demonic G.o.d arriving in the present, an ancient and eternal aura was released.  It was enough to make anyone shocked and afraid.

The fierce outline disappeared in a flash.

Chu Tian opened his closed eyes.  His eyes turned a strange silver white colour.  The left eye was silver and the right eye was white.  There were seven other pupils that appeared inside his pupil with one in the middle and the rest surrounding it like petals.  The colours of each pupil was different and they superimposed in the middle, just like a strange blooming flower.  

The instant the several black clothed men saw Chu Tian's eyes.

Hong!

In that moment.

The entire world seemed to be crashing down!

They all lost consciousness and did not make a single sound as they fell to the ground.  Their brains stopped functioning and their hearts stopped beating.  They did not have single injury inside or outside of their bodies, but they had died just like that.213333

In this short period.

The entire process did not even last half a second.

Chu Tian had just looked at these people and they had all been killed.

Pain, pain, pain!

His head really hurt!

Chu Tian's face turned pale as he used his hand to wipe his forehead.  He took in several deep breaths as he slowly recovered.  He took out a piece of Yuan Essence Gra.s.s from his pocket and swallowed it, quickly recovering most of the spirit energy he had used.

Every time he used his main source spirit, it was very draining on his soul!

Large quant.i.ties of meteorite gra.s.s had already been used on his body so Chu Tian's meridians were already several times thicker than normal people's and he had more overall spirit energy compared to normal people.  Even in this kind of situation, if he used his main source spirit to attack, he could only withstand releasing one attack.

The consumption was too big!

It almost completely drained all the energy in his body!

The little fox gave a whining sound as it curled up its furry body.  Its sparkling eyes revealed a look of shock and dread.

"Now you know how powerful your master is!

"Now let's see how you act from now on!"

The little fox returned to normal as it gave Chu Tian a fierce look, seemingly protesting towards him.

Chu Tian did not pay attention to it as he openly walked into the demon's lair.  This should be a kind of ruin, but it didn't seem to be very old.  It looked like it was only several hundred years old.

Long stone steps led down.  There were black stone walls to the left and right carved with demonic totems.  The entire area was filled with a strange aura.  When he came to the end of the stairs, a sinister main hall appeared in front of Chu Tian.

Boxes of treasures were piled in every corner of the main hall.

Gold and silver treasures and materials for weapons were scattered all around, just like a storage hole for treasures.

Finally, he had found them!  Chu Tian found that in between the goods, there were flags of different companies.  This was clearly the merchandise that had been stolen.

In the center of the main hall, there was a pool of blood.  It was filled with thick blood that seemed to be alive as it slowly wriggled about.  The Yellow Stone City mayor Yan Wuyang led twenty black clothed thieves as they stood around it.

Yan Wuyang's face was covered in awe and worship as he kneeled in front of the pool of blood.  He was full of admiration as he repeatedly bowed down.  His mouth was mumbling as if he was talking to someone.

Suddenly, he stood up and he waved his right hand, "Bring them down."

The black clothed men came in with woman and children.

"What are you guys doing?"

"Let me go, let me go now!"

Huang Haohan and three other cultivators were pulled out from the captives by the black clothed people and brought in front of the pool of blood.

The blacked clothed people and Yan Wuyang bowed and shouted.

"My Lord, please receive this sacrifice I offer!"

Lin Mu and Fang Han both had the desire to kill as they loudly shouted, "No!"

The four people thrown into the pool of blood did not sink, rather they just floated on the surface.  The blood water seemed to come alive as it entered two of the cultivators' seven orifices.  The two of them began to twitch as they lost their vital energy and spirit energy.   Their skin dried as their bodies began to age gradually.

Chu Tian gripped the Netherworld Sword as he hid in a corner and watched, he could not help frowning.  The blood pool seemed to absorb a person's body essence and vitality, it truly was powerful.

"Not bad, not bad……"

"Awakened Soul Cultivator's life essence and vitality are quite a treat."

"As long as it can keep devouring Awakened Soul Cultivators, this place will awaken soon."

"These plundered goods will be used to build the capital of the holy saint."

"Your efforts in helping with this revival will of course be considered a large merit.  Naturally you'll receive rewards afterwards."

A voice came from the pool of blood.  The voice was very dry and abrasive, just like the sound of someone scratching on a stone.  It made people feel very uncomfortable.

Yan Wuyang excited continued to bow down, "Thank you, Branch Lord!  I will go through fire and water for you!  What are you guys looking at?  Quickly throw those other people in!"

"Stop!"  The voice rang out once again from the blood pool, "You seemed to have brought in a little mouse!"

Yan Wuyang was startled as he suddenly turned his head, "Who is it!"

Chu Tian knit his brows.  This old demon's spiritual sense wasn't weak.  He was waiting for a chance to sneak attack, but who would have thought that once he entered into the main hall, he would be discovered by the enemy.

That's fine!

Since he had been discovered by the enemy, there was no reason to keep hiding.

Chu Tian walked out from behind the pillar, "Mayor Yan, we meet again!"

Lin Mu and Fang Han were stunned.

Is this little brat stupid?

He had actually gotten away, yet he took the initiative to come back!

Yan Wuyang also didn't think he would see him again, "That waste Yan Jun!"

Chu Tian laughed and said, "Why are you anxious?  I'll send you on your way to see him again!"

Yan Wuyang angrily said, "Go, kill him!"

Twenty black clothed bandits took out their weapons and turned into twenty shadows.  From all different directions, they all launched attacks at Chu Tian at the same time.  These twenty people were both at the peak 9th Body Refinement Layer, but they could all normally deal with 1st Awakened Soul Layer Cultivators!

Hyperfocus!

Chu Tian activated hyperfocus and the world began to slow down.  Every movement from the black clothed people were all clearly captured inside his brain.  

The Demon G.o.d's Sword Source Spirit appeared.

Chu Tian gripped the Netherworld Sword as he charged forward.  Beautiful sword glow like rays of light pa.s.sed through the black clothed bandits.  There was not a single person that could block his sword.

Chu Tian pa.s.sed through the twenty bandits and stopped in the main hall.

Putong, putong!

The black clothed bandits fell onto the ground one by one, each one had been killed by a single slash.  Simple and clean, without the slightest bit of hesitation!

Yan Wuyang's pupils slightly contracted, "The realm of hyperfocus?  That useless Yan Jun really did die by your hand!"

Chu Tian stared at the blood pool for a while.  Huang Haohan and the other cultivator turned into a dried corpse at this moment.

"Inside of this blood essence, there are probably the essences of over two thousand Body Refinement Cultivators."  Chu Tian's eyes became bone chilling cold, "Harming this many innocent people for your selfish reasons, aren't you afraid of receiving retribution?"

"People will punish the heavens and destroy the earth for themselves!"  Yan Wuyang revealed a crazed look, "I'm already sixty years old and have been the mayor of this small town for over twenty years.  I used to think that I would spend my entire life this way!"

"This world is vast and filled with wonders.  The Southern Summer Country is just a drop in the ocean and people will waste away in a small city like this!  I'm not satisfied, I'm not satisfied!"

"It was the Branch Lord that gave me this chance!  He gave me the chance to practice the wonderful art of the Heavenly Demon Cult!  Giving the chance to grab a new lease on life!  A short sighted person like you, how could you understand how I feel!"

Chu Tian gave a sigh.

Everyone had their own fate.

But, Yan Wuyang's feelings, he could understand.

In this wonderful world, in this wide world, Yan Wuyang was certainly doomed to be just a little ant, forever living his life in a small place like this.  He wanted to leave and go wherever he wanted to go, was that wrong?

That's right!

Wasn't Chu Tian just like him?

Chu Tian's dream, Chu Tian's goal, it was actually the same as Yan Wuyang.  Breaking through that impossible realm and exploring the new world, this was the desire deep inside his heart.

Yan Wuyang's skin gradually turned black and his body was covered in a striped cursed markings.  It was just like an evil and ancient totem was being imprinted on his body.

Chu Tian slightly knit his brows.  

The runes on his body became even more complex.  His cultivation with the «Heavenly Demon Art» seemed to be even higher than Yan Jun's.  Yan Wuyang only had a cultivation at the 2nd Body Refinement Layer, but with the power of the «Heavenly Demon Art», it seemed his level increased by a whole level!

"Now, become a sacrifice to the Heavenly Demon Cult!"

Yan Wuyang viciously stamped down with his right foot and black and white spirit energy was emitted from his body.  It condensed into the image of a fierce two headed ape.

Chu Tian revealed a solemn expression, "Ice and fire together?  A dual element source spirit!"

Yan Wuyang's twin headed ice and fire ape source spirit was a special kind of spirit beast that had two elements, so Yan Wuyang also practiced two different cultivation techniques.  Even though he practiced both ice and fire cultivation techniques, there was no repulsion from either.  This kind of person had a terrifying battle potential.

Moreover, Yan Wuyang also had the «Heavenly Demon Art» which increased all his abilities by a large increment.  It made him strong enough to compare with an expert at the 3rd Awakened Soul Layer.

Chu Tian didn't have a strong enough cultivation technique.  With just his trivial 1st Awakened Soul Layer strength, this fight would be very difficult!

In this moment!

Yan Wuyang's tiny and thin body suddenly welled up and he turned into a strong giant.  He turned into a shadow and shot forward.  Cold wind came from his left fist and his fist shot forward.

Starlight Immortal Body!

Chu Tian was surrounded in starlight and his sword swept across in front of him.  Yan Wuyang's fist collided with the blade and ice began to form on the blade's edge.

"Roar!"

Yan Wuyang gave a b.e.s.t.i.a.l roar as he sent out another fist covered in flames.  The fist clashed with the frozen blade and the powers of ice and fire collided, creating a large explosion.

Chu Tian was sent flying like a piece of paper and he slammed heavily onto the pillar.  Large cracks appeared on the pillar, but Chu Tian had the Starlight Immortal Body to guard him so he barely received any damage.

"Ze, ze, ze……"  Yan Wuyang began to laugh, "Your cultivation technique is not simple.  With such strong defensive abilities, you do have the ability to kill Yan Jun.  But against me, this kind of little defence is useless!"

After finishing, the demonic qi on Yan Wuyang's body became stronger.  He was completely covered and looked like a ferocious ghost was wrapped around his body.

Those two fists were just probing attacks.

Now he would be using his full strength.

With the experience of fighting against Yan Jun, Chu Tian was very clear that once Yan Wuyang used his full strength, he would reach a speed that would hard for his eyes to keep up with.  It was likely that before Chu Tian could react, he would be killed by the enemy's fist.

Since he couldn't see it with his eyes, then he just wouldn't use his flesh eyes!

Chu Tian closed his eyes…….Mind's eye, open!

When Chu Tian opened his mind's eye, he could clearly see Yan Wuyang's body.  The composition of his power, the characteristics of his cultivation technique, his body's distribution of spirit energy, even his weaknesses, they were all clearly shown to Chu Tian.

"Mind's eye?"

A surprised voice came from the blood pool.

"Die!"

Yan Wuyang didn't care that much as he swept forward with his demonic qi.  A fist of ice and a fist of fire, the fists combined and shot out with the strongest strength he could use at Chu Tian.

"Fox, it's up to you!"

Once the little fox receive the order, it stood up on Chu Tian's shoulder and forcefully sucked in.  The demonic qi on Yan Wuyang's body was taken by the little fox and swallowed into his stomach.

Yan Wuyang was shocked, "What is this thing!  It can actually break through my demon art!"

Chu Tian's body was covered in spirit energy as the Demon G.o.d's Sword Source Spirit appeared.  The Netherworld Sword was instilled with a large strength and the purple glow increased in intensity by several folds.

One step!

Two step!

Chu Tian walked forward two steps.  The weaknesses of Yan Wuyang's body were unable to escape the gaze of Chu Tian's mind's eye.

The radiant sword glow swept across!

Yan Wuyang's ice and fire fist shot forward and created two large craters on the ground, but it didn't hit Chu Tian.  His eyes popped out as he revealed an expression of disbelief.

"I……actually lost?  Impossible!"

A red line appeared on Yan Wuyang's waist.  Just like straw that had been cut, his body fell apart into two parts.  He had been killed by Chu Tian's sword!

Until the moment his consciousness disappeared.

He still couldn't believe that he had lost!
