Chapter 76 - The Incoming Storm
Chapter 76 - The Incoming Storm
In a flash, two days have gone by since Ling Chen had killed the five hall masters of the bloodbath assassination guild as well as forcing the supreme hall master, Bloodbath himself to take his own life.
As they said, no wall could block the wind completely and no paper that could wrap up a fire entirely.
It was unknown who had spread the news. However, the details of that battle were spread throughout the Heavenly Demon Sect's Domain, including the whole Heaven Desolate Region like a wildfire.
Whether it was Ling Chen's heaven-defying self-recovery ability or the fact that he was able to absorb the blood and life essence of other warriors to increase his strength, they were all made public as well.
Each one of this news was like a bombshell which had caused a huge storm throughout the whole Heaven Desolate Region.
The Heaven Desolate Region has been peaceful for over a hundred years like a dormant volcano was abruptly and violently erupted.
At this time, regardless it was the fifteen great influences or the weakest kingdom in the Heaven Desolate Region, they were all talking about one person, Ling Chen.
By killing the five hall masters that were at the Martial Venerable realm and forcing the Legendary Bloodbath to self-destruct, Ling Chen had proved himself to be one of the top powerhouses and had officially entered into the rank of the top experts within the Heaven Desolate Region.
He was instantly recognized as a heavyweight throughout the Heavenly Desolate Region. A ten years old Martial Venerable realm warrior, this was a first throughout the whole Great Luo World.
Martial Venerable warriors were powerful warriors that stood at the pinnacle of the Heaven Desolate Region, second to the Martial Saint realm warriors. If a sect had a Martial Venerable warrior, it would already be enough for it to be considered as a behemoth throughout the Heaven Desolate Region, yet, Ling Chen who was only ten had already attained that kinda terrifying power.
To all the warriors within the Heaven Desolate Region, stepping into the Martial Venerable Realm was akin to stepping into the sky.
From now on, his status would be very different from before. He would be like a fish leaping over the gates of the dragon and soaring above ninth heaven.
He was no longer known as Ling Chen, the son of the Heavenly Demon Venerable but rather Venerable Fiendgod like most people were already calling him.
A Martial Venerable warrior, compared to the whole Great Luo World as a whole, could be considered as someone who had stepped into the peak warrior class.
But if you added the words ' ten years old' in front of the words ' Martial Venerable' the effect was different. The Yan Empire who was considered the most powerful influence within the Heaven Desolate Region wouldn't care too much about Martial Venerable as they had plenty of them.
However…
A ten-year-old Martial Venerable Warrior? Leaving the Yan Empire aside, each one of the Great Influences on the Heaven Desolate Region and even the Great Luo World would do anything to possess such a terrifying character.
Almost every single warrior within the Heaven Desolate Region was in shock. All of them understood exactly what a ten years old Martial Venerable represented. This was a miracle!
A ten years old Martial Venerable!
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was the youngest Martial Venerable since the beginning of the world.
While the whole Heaven Desolate Region became alarmed and afraid after hearing the news of that battle as well as Ling Chen's terrifying strength, The people of the Heavenly Demon Sect were celebrating. They began to view Ling Chen as the pride of the Heavenly Demon Sect. They still called him the little devil as usual, but this time there wasn't any bad connotation to it. For them, the nickname little devil meant power and overwhelming strength.
While everyone was still in shock due to Ling Chen's possessing such a terrifying strength at such a young age, there was something else that made their hearts beat faster, something that made even the Martial Saints drool like a baby and it was precisely Ling Chen's ability to absorb the blood and life essence of other warriors to increase his strength.
After knowing that Ling Chen had the ability to increase his strength by absorbing the blood and life essence of other warriors, they instantly associated his skyrocketed growth as well as his insanely terrifying strength at such a young age to his demonic devouring ability.
At the same time, almost every warrior within the Heaven Desolate region had their eyes set on Ling Chen as well as the Heavenly Demon Sect.
The attraction of the ability to get stronger just by killing and absorbing the blood and life force of your opponent was something that one couldn't possibly imagine.
How many warriors in the Heaven Desolate Region and even the Great Luo World couldn't move a step further in their cultivation due to their lack of natural talent and background?
How many warriors out there that had been stuck and couldn't break through even a single minor stage in their entire life due to the lack of resources. Such warriors were innumerable throughout the Heaven Desolate Region.
Now, one could only imagine how excited and crazy they were once they found out that there was a way that they could get insanely strong even though they didn't have a great talent or background. Even though they didn't have enough resources to cultivate.
All they had to do now was to kill someone and absorb their blood and life essence and their strength would increase.
Many warriors turned crazy after hearing this and frantically rushed into the Heaven Desolate Region regardless of how far it was from their location. This was especially true for the older generation. Martial Sovereign and Martial Venerable came in droves.
There was nothing more tempting than Ling Chen's Devouring ability, especially for these powerful warriors with withering lifespans that were unable to break through the next stage to prolong their life spans.
They were already on the verge of death and had nothing left to lose. Even before death, they would try to obtain such a demonic ability with more effort than anyone else.
In a short period of time, the Heaven Desolate Region was in a furor. The world shook because countless great characters were rushing towards the Heavenly Demon Sect's domain at the same time.
On this day, numerous streak of lights flew across the sky as many powerful experts were making their way to the Heavenly Demon Sect's Domain.
