Dragon Blooded War God

The way Long Chen had acted just now made Liu Yiyi wary. She kept wondering what happened to him to make him look like that. He was so mysterious. As much as she was curious about him, she didn’t dare ask.

The Clear Shallows King had told her that Long Chen was a dangerous man, and now Liu Yiyi knew what she meant.

They soon reached their destination. There was a cave in front of them, and Liu Yiyi explained, “To cultivate the Demonic Illusion, you need to be able to see your shadow. This is a closed-off place to cultivate it. Since we have less than a month to cultivate it, we will have to … “ She blushed.

She would have to cultivate here with Long Chen for the rest of the month. She had never spent so much time with him before, so she was panicking.

“Don’t worry. I won’t eat you.” Long Chen smiled wryly. Now recovered, he entered the dark cave. The cave was long but narrow, with only enough room to fit two or three people side to side. They walked for ten meters before Long Chen saw light. At the end of the tunnel was a large, circular cavern around fifty meters in diameter.

There was only a single entrance to the cave, making it relatively sealed off. If it wasn’t for the candlelight, the entire cave would be completely dark. Long Chen spotted a large candle in the middle. It was feeding a palm-sized flame that illuminated the cave. He also saw his own shadow on the wall.

It’s very strange that the Demonic Illusion requires one to train in such an environment. Long Chen looked around in awe.

Liu Yiyi entered after he did. She was familiar with the place since she cultivated here a lot. She walked to a small, wooden house at the edge of the cave. Even though the door was shut, Long Chen could tell that the interior was decorated quite exquisitely, befitting of Liu Yiyi’s behavior.

She blushed when he examined the house. “I spent a lot of time here cultivating the Demonic Illusion. The Earthly Qi here is also thicker, so I’ve been coming here ever since I was young …”

“When you were young? Alone?” Long Chen was speechless. He wouldn’t be able to endure the loneliness. Even now, he had Xiaolang and Fat Cat accompanying him. He was impressed by how she endured it.

“This is where I live. You can’t come inside …”

Even though it was a weird house, Long Chen understood the rules. It was wrong to barge into a girl’s room without any warning.

“Don’t worry. I’m not a bad person. I was just teasing you that night.”

“I know …” Liu Yiyi nodded and looked at Long Chen with glimmering eyes.

The atmosphere was nothing less than romantic.

The Clear Shallows King’s arrangement was slightly problematic.

Long Chen didn’t know what to say, and Fat Cat in the Primordial Realm laughed and rolled on the ground.

Liu Yiyi broke the silence first. “The Azure Purgatory King Pavilion’s Chen Feng reached the Ninth Passage Stage a few days ago, yet he still intends to join the assessment. Have you heard?”

Long Chen nodded.

“Jiang Cheng, do you intend to get the Emperor Flame Pearl?” Liu Yiyi asked boldly.

She was not stupid, so she knew what he wanted, and Long Chen had no need to hide it. “Of course. Who doesn’t want it? But obtaining it is another thing altogether.”

“But Chen Feng is really strong. Can you win against him with your current strength?”

“Probably not. That’s why I need the beautiful Miss Liu Yiyi to teach me the King-tier combat technique.” Long Chen chuckled.

Being called beautiful made her feel a bit awkward, and her heart beat faster. She even felt her face turning hot when she lowered her head. “Chen Feng is the strongest disciple in the seven pavilions. You need to work hard.”

“That’s true, but Miss Liu …”

“Just call me ‘Senior Yiyi.’ You are technically my mother’s disciple.”

Long Chen smiled helplessly. Liu Yiyi was actually much younger than him. “I have a question. Where is the palace? Which layer is it in?”

“Only those at the rank of Demon General and above can enter the palace. I never went there before, but I know it’s at the fifth layer of the Demon World,” Liu Yiyi answered.

“The fifth? Then what’s in the sixth and seventh layers?” Long Chen asked again. He remembered the cat telling him that the thing sucking the Life Qi was at the bottom layers.

“I know the sixth layer is the Demon Emperor’s vault. There are numerous halls in there that safeguard various Divine Arms, spiritual herbs, and martial techniques. All of his assets are located there. As for the seventh layer … I’ve never heard anything about it. I suppose no one has been there before?”

That means the being or the thing is at the seventh layer?

Long Chen secretly noted down the information and continued asking questions to defuse the awkwardness. “Then, other than the Demon Emperor, is there anyone else notable in the palace?”

Liu Yiyi slowly grew confident. She answered his questions and didn’t blush that easily anymore. “The grand elders are there too. All of them are at the Ninth Passage Stage, and there are fifty of them. Each of them is as strong as a Demon General. There will always only be twenty-eight Demon Generals that handle the various administrative tasks in the Ancient Demon Domain. If someone reaches the Ninth Passage Stage and doesn’t want to become a Demon General, they can choose to become a grand elder. The grand elders hold the same position as the Demon Generals, but they only need to concentrate on cultivating and are not burdened by administrative tasks. Chen Feng will probably become one after the assessment.”

Long Chen was shocked. He thought there were only twenty-eight people at the Ninth Passage Stage in the Ancient Demon Domain, but he was wrong. There were fifty more! To think there were almost eighty people that were stronger than him. Long Chen felt his scalp go numb at the thought of so many people above him.

Long Chen had underestimated the strength of the Ancient Demon Domain.

“The family of the Demon Emperor also resides in the palace, including Jiang Wushang, who is at the First Earthly Martial Stage.” Liu Yiyi’s eyes were filled with awe when she mentioned him.

Reaching that stage at such a young age was almost unheard of. Jiang Wushang was undoubtedly the strongest youth in the Ancient Demon Domain.

Long Chen was also impressed with Jiang Wushang’s strength.

“Are all of the Demon Emperor’s sons as strong as Jiang Wushang?”

“No. He has nine sons. Some are strong and some are weak. But I’m talking about their talent rather than their current strength. He has a ten-year-old son who reached the Third Passage Stage just like Huangfu Qi.”

“How weak is weak?” Long Chen was interested.

“I think one of his sons is around our age, but he is only at the Third Passage Stage. He is quite famous in the Ancient Demon Domain as a bad example …”

“Oh.” Long Chen nodded. He just wanted to know a bit about the palace and the Demon Emperor, as well as let Liu Yiyi familiarize herself with him. It would be difficult to cultivate the Demonic Illusion if Liu Yiyi kept blushing and avoiding him. “Let’s start training!”

The two of them got closer, and Liu Yiyi started teaching him after seeing that Long Chen was not aiming to “devour” her. She sighed in relief as Long Chen seemed sincere about learning.

“The Demonic Illusion is a special divine technique that surpasses all of the techniques in the Ancient Demon Domain.”

When she started teaching, Long Chen sat down like a good student.

“Look at my shadow.” She pointed at the ground, and Long Chen saw her shadow elongating, then it suddenly stood up. The shadow was the same size and shape as Liu Yiyi.

Except it was wearing no clothes.

Still, since it was a shadow, there was nothing to see. It just had the same external shape as the user. But Long Chen sensed that the shadow was almost as strong as him.

“Do you sense anything from my shadow?”

“Hmm … I sense that I was wrong. You have a beautiful body.”

Liu Yiyi froze and followed his gaze. She saw her curvy shadow, and her face exploded in a rush of red. Her face looked like an apple. She withdrew her shadow and pointed at Long Chen while huffing. “You … You … You bastard student! Lecher!”

“Uh … I thought you wanted me to notice that.”
