Chapter 908 - Underworld City

Ji Yan and the lady were huddled together. They were feeling helpless after everything that had just happened.

When Ji Yan looked at Long Chen, she felt a familiar aura.

The lady was anxious. “Ji Yan, what should we do?”

Ji Yan actually resented the lady a bit. The lady was very bossy at work, but at the most critical moment, she was meek and useless. She was a useless woman who had reached her position through looks and sex.

“What can we do? The Divine Martial Condensation Pill has been taken. We will be punished when we get back. Now we can only pray that the two of them will be injured in their fight.”

Ji Yan sighed. Unfortunately, she didn’t have connections, which was how she was ranked lower than the lady.

The lady was still panicking, so she didn’t notice Ji Yan’s uncourteous tone.

Qin Yang and Wei Zhou stopped fighting. Since the Divine Martial Condensation Pill was no longer in their hands, Qin Yang would gain nothing from this fight, even if he killed Wei Zhou.

“Ji Yan, recover for now. I will watch over you.”

Wei Zhou went closer to guard them. His breathing was laborious by this point.

“The guy called Qin Yang ... To think he's as strong as me even though he’s so young. He’s incredible.”

“Uncle Wei, do you feel a familiar aura coming from the Beast Warrior?”

“Hm?” Both Wei Zhou and the lady looked at Long Chen more closely, but they found nothing significant.

“I’ve never met him, though he is strong. For some reason, his aura is unstable. He doesn’t look strong, but thanks to his Divine Weapons, he can fight toe-to-toe against someone stronger. It’s quite surprising.”

The three of them were indeed surprised.

They would be even more surprised if they found out that the Beast Warrior was Long Chen.

While Long Chen was fighting against Boss Jiu, he gleaned a lot from his opponent’s movements. Long Chen had to admit that the True Martial Overlord Soul was indeed amazing. While he was fighting, his comprehension of the Heavenly Martial Realm started to grow rapidly.

Minutes passed, and Boss Jiu was starting to panic. They had been fighting for a long time right outside of Underworld City. It was detrimental to stick around here, so Boss Jiu used his killer move.

“Myriad Blood Hands!”

He used the technique that had defeated Ji Yan and his domain at the same time. Long Chen felt a lot of pressure acting on his body.

Long Chen saw nothing but bloody hands around him. Each subsequent one was stronger than the previous. The energy coming from the technique started corroding his body.

“So is this how strong someone at the Eighth Heavenly Martial Stage is? I thought he would be stronger.”

The six demons that had brought Long Chen here weren’t as strong as he had thought. Long Chen had improved a lot during the short time he had spent in the Three Emperor Territory.

If he had reached this level before, Xiaolang wouldn’t have been taken away.

“Emperor’s Manual, Emperor’s Arrival!”

Long Chen swung his golden fist at Boss Jiu. He appeared to have become the ruler above all life who looked down on others. The golden fist crashed into the Myriad Blood Hands. For a few seconds, the two attacks were equal. While Emperor’s Arrival was of a higher grade, Long Chen didn’t have sufficient essence to back it up. But thankfully, the Emperor’s Vanquishers and his understanding of the fist art helped cover the gap.

Bam!

While Long Chen’s right fist exuded unparalleled Yang energy, he quickly unleashed another Emperor’s Arrival with his left fist. Another punch, one filled with unyielding Yin energy, quickly followed.

Long Chen broke through the Myriad Bloody Hands with his right fist while his left fist nailed Boss Jiu directly.

Boss Jiu coughed up blood from the impact and died immediately. His body was a wrangled mess.

With a splat, Boss Jiu’s mutilated body collapsed onto the ground.

The battlefield went silent after Long Chen killed Boss Jiu. The others looked at Long Chen with stunned expressions. Qin Yang wanted to run away, but before he did, he reached Boss Jiu’s corpse, confirmed his passing, and stored the corpse in his Storage Ring.

“Run if you don’t want to die.”

Qin Yang knew he was no match, because he was roughly equal to Boss Jiu. If Long Chen could kill Boss Jiu, he could kill Qin Yang too. Qin Yang had no choice but to retreat.

“I will remember you.”

Qin Yang retreated after saying that.

Long Chen looked at Wei Zhou and the rest once before running towards Underworld City.

Ji Yan was so surprised that she unconsciously asked,“Wait, who are you?”

She didn’t want to give up on retrieving the Divine Martial Condensation Pill, and she also had a feeling that she had met the mysterious man in front of her before.

“Do I know you?” Long Chen chuckled. “This pill is mine now. Thanks!”

Long Chen ran and soon disappeared.

“He’s heading to Underworld City. There’s a chance we will meet him again. Quickly, send a message to the bosses. Let them search for a Beast Warrior that matches his features in Underworld City. That person’s transformation is very unique, so it should be easy for us to track him down.”

The lady, who was previously paralyzed from fear, finally got her wits together after Long Chen left.

Ji yYan sighed and nodded helplessly. Unfortunately, the lady was her superior, so she couldn’t retort. The three of them then set out for Underworld City. They had lost the Divine Martial Condensation Pill, and they were uncertain what kind of punishment awaited them when they reached the Iron Blood Association.

Ji Yan was deep in thought while on her white Mech Horse.

The Beast Warrior’s aura and demeanor reminded her of someone.

Is he Long Chen? That can’t be. Even though they are similar, Long Chen shouldn’t have that kind of strength ...

Ji Yan shook her head and continued traveling without saying another word. Just then, they passed by a corpse that appeared to have been beaten up. Based on the corpse’s clothes, the person was Luo Wei!

The lady in the carriage glared and spat on Luo Wei’s corpse. “How dare you betray me! Good riddance!”

Wei Zhou murmured, “That’s strange. It seems he died from getting slapped. Didn’t he escape? Who would be strong enough to slap him to death? Was it the Beast Warrior?”

It was an innocent remark, but Ji Yan shouted in surprise. She knew that Luo Wei and Long Chen had a grudge with each other, and Luo Wei’s corpse confirmed her suspicions.

Wei Zhou was confused. “What’s wrong, Ji Yan?”

“Nothing.”

Ji Yan shook her head, but her heart was beating fast.

It really is him! I can’t believe he’s such a schemer! He was so patient with his revenge. His strength is also not to be underestimated ... Luo Wei had been bullying him for so long, and yet he managed to endure until now. What a guy ...

Rather than reporting this, she chose to play innocent. She wouldn’t get any exemplary rewards if they managed to recover the Divine Martial Condensation Pill to begin with. Only the lady in the carriage would benefit greatly. Therefore, Ji Yan chose to be silent.

Nevermind. Let’s just say that it’s a gift for him. He did save my life just now.

Ji Yan’s mouth curved up into a smile.

***

“Fat Cat, what does this pill do?”

Long Chen was currently hidden near a mountain. He looked around to check his surroundings, but even when he saw that there wasn’t anyone nearby, he chose not to take it out. Instead, he threw the Storage Ring into the Primordial Realm directly.

He was afraid that the scent of the pill would attract some unseen experts.

Underworld City was just in front of him, and there were a lot of experts at the Divine Martial Realm there.

They were beings on the same level as the Five Emperors, but even so, they were only qualified to hold the title of Thousand-Sergeant.

Fat Cat chuckled. “Ten thousand Emperor Crystals for a single question.”

“Go kill yourself! That’s too expensive!”

“No, it’s not! I saw you stealing a hundred thousand Emperor Crystals just now! Bring them out for me! My appetite has grown a lot. I need ten thousand Emperor Crystals to fill my belly. The more you give me, the stronger my illusions become. Only then will I be able to fight someone strong.”

Long Chen had indeed grabbed a hundred thousand Emperor Crystals from the lady’s Storage Ring. Although the lady had nothing useful, she did have a lot of money. Long Chen had a feeling that the money she held was most likely a part of the Iron Blood Association’s funds.

A hundred thousand was not a small sum anymore.

Long Chen only needed ten thousand or so for himself.

In the end, he gave the crystals to Little Cat. “So... The Divine Martial Condensation Pill. Is it useful for me to advance into the Divine Martial Realm?”

“Not bad. You think fast. Indeed, once you reach the Ninth Heavenly Martial Stage, you can use it to condense your Divine Soul and put it into your Martial Soul to form a Divine Martial Soul. As long as your Divine Martial Soul is intact, you will never die.”

LIttle Cat paused before continuing, “Of course, there are idiots with very bad comprehension that can’t reach the Divine Martial Realm even with the help of the pill. You are only at the Fourth Heavenly Martial Stage right now, so it’s best to set it aside. You will be able to use it later on.”

Little Cat’s explanation confirmed Long Chen’s assumption.

After understanding what the pill was used for, Long Chen decided he would wait until the next day before he entered the city. During that time, he slowly recalled his battle with Boss Jiu to increase his understanding of the Heavenly Martial Realm.

Afterwards, he walked towards Underworld City. Right now, he was at the peak of Heavenly Eagle Mountain. Beneath him, covered in dark inky clouds, was a large city.

It was a hundred times larger than Scarlet Sun City. This was the city that housed five hundred thousand Underworld Soldiers.

It was also the biggest city Long Chen had ever seen.

“So this is Underworld City?”
