Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 853: Chapter 854: Green Scale Emperor Snake! (2 updates)

After reading those notes, Ling Feng became even more determined to unravel the secrets of the Divine Desolate Treasure Box. This would be an important asset to counter the Sky Patrol Clan.

Next, Ling Feng wandered around the Ancient Tower Forest with Despicable Donkey and Zi Feng for quite a while. In the end, he still couldn’t comprehend the so-called Three Thousand Great Dao. Nevertheless, Ling Feng was not disappointed. Compared to the Three Thousand Great Dao, the Void’s Eye and the Treasure Map containing clues to open the Divine Desolate Treasure Box were far more precious.

Moreover, in an out-of-body state, he unexpectedly advanced both the Slaughter Sword Intent and the Reincarnation Sword Intent to the level of Sword Intent Mastery.

One should note that these two types of Sword Intent are extremely rare attribute Sword Intents, with a high difficulty of enhancement! Even though Ling Feng later obtained a partial version of the ”No-Desire Sword Technique” and could improve his Sword Intent through its comprehension, it paled compared to the explosive speed within the Four Spirits Sealing God Stele.

With such gains, Ling Feng wasn’t too interested in the so-called Three Thousand Great Dao anymore.

Since nothing could be gained, Ling Feng simply left the Ancient Tower Forest, traversed the long Time-Space Channel, and soon returned to the peak of that isolated mountain.

On the mountain peaks, winds stirred the clouds. Ling Feng glanced at the ancient millennium tree and bowed his hands towards it, but Lord Tian Shu did not acknowledge his presence.

Ling Feng smirked and did not linger further but returned the way he came. As for Lee Bufan and the others, they were probably still in the Ancient Tower Forest trying to comprehend the Three Thousand Great Dao.

After all, only a little more than three days had passed.

After Ling Feng descended the mountain, a human face appeared on the millennium-old tree, frowning slightly, and muttered, ”He hasn’t comprehended a single Great Dao, yet claims to be of the Divine Race! Doesn’t seem like the appointed time that the Master spoke of, the new generation leader to change the Immortal World, could be this weak! Alas...”

The sigh slowly faded away, leaving only the sound of the wind on the mountain top...

...

As the saying goes, it’s easy to go up the mountain but hard to come down. In the absence of True Qi, even with the almost monstrous physique of Ling Feng, it took him two full hours to descend the steep mountain path and return to the main tent of the Sky-reaching Fortress.

”General Ling!”

The soldiers guarding the pathway into the Ancient Tower Forest observed Ling Feng returning from its direction and hurriedly stepped forward to salute him.

”Hmm.” Ling Feng nodded slightly but noticed that the expressions of these soldiers were not very good, as if something significant had happened in the barracks.

”Did something happen at the fortress? Why does everyone look so downcast?”

Ling Feng rubbed his nose and asked casually.

”Ah, something did happen.” A square-faced soldier on the left gritted his teeth and said, ”Last night, the Northern Demon Clan launched a frontal assault on our Sky-reaching Fortress, but who knew their real goal was to cross over from the side, bypassing the fortress’s defenses and breaking in.”

”Even though Military Counsellor Jia was well-prepared, no one expected that among the infiltrators there was a peak Demon King, who not only injured several generals but also successfully bypassed the Sky-reaching Fortress. Reports from above say at least twenty Demon Monarch-level and higher members of the Demon Clan passed through the fortress heading straight for Luohai City!”

”Is that true?”

Ling Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly, with a faint premonition arising in his heart: Luohai City, again!

Is there some secret hidden in this Luohai City?

”Yes, currently the Grand Commander has ordered the deployment of over a dozen teams to search the vicinity of Luohai City and eliminate those Demon Clan members who slipped through. The Demon Clan has mobilized such a large force; their intentions are undoubtedly not simple.”

”Hmm.” Ling Feng nodded, even someone as inexperienced as he could guess the Demon Clan had another purpose, someone as shrewd as Han Li couldn’t possibly overlook this point.

”Where are the injured generals, is it serious?” Ling Feng pursed his lips and asked solemnly.

”They are all at the medical camp on the west side of the fortress, everyone else is fine, but Military Counsellor Jia is seriously injured and might be in life-threatening danger.”

”I understand.”

Ling Feng took a deep breath, cupped his fists towards the soldiers, and then flew off towards the medical camp.

...

At the medical camp on the west side of the fortress.

”Damn it, damn it all!”

A general with his right hand wrapped in bandages hanging around his neck, looked at his unconscious comrade on the bed and couldn’t help clenching his fists, feeling deep hatred for the Demon Clan.

”Doctor Hu, can you do it or not, why hasn’t Old Jia shown any signs of waking up after so long!”

The general, in a moment of agitation, grabbed the collar of the military doctor tending to Jia Wenhe next to the bed and started cursing.

”General Cao, Military Counsellor Jia... his injuries are really severe, not only internal injuries but also demon poison! The demon poison has accumulated in Military Counsellor Jia’s body, and unless the poison is removed, no amount of Spiritual Medicine can save him!”

Doctor Hu continuously wiped the sweat from his forehead, pointing at the unconscious generals nearby, and gritted his teeth, ”It’s not just Military Counsellor Jia, look at these generals, they’ve been unconscious for seven to eight days already. As long as we can’t find a way to dispel the demon poison, I’m helpless and can only barely sustain their lives.”

”Are you not ashamed as a Daoist Doctor, unable to expel demon poison? Our Northwest Army has fought with the Demon Clan for years, haven’t we already developed ways to dispel demon poison?”

”That’s only for the ordinary Demon Clan, but this time, a Demon King of the Green Scale Imperial Snake Clan appeared. As far as I know, there’s only one way to resolve this kind of demon poison!”

Doctor Hu gritted his teeth hard. This kind of poison can kill hundreds of thousands of mortal people with just one drop. If these generals weren’t high-level martial artists with unusual physiques, they would have already died from full-body corrosion.

”If there’s a way, why not use it quickly!” General Cao urged.\

”The Spirit Grass to neutralize the Green Scale Imperial Snake Clan’s demon poison is only the Fiery Sun Sky Leader Grass. Unfortunately, this kind of Fiery Sun Sky Leader Grass can only be grown by watering it daily with the poison liquid of the Green Scale Imperial Snake Clan. In other words, the antidote can only be found in the gathering place of the Green Scale Imperial Snake Clan. Doctor Hu, I’m not wrong, am I?”

At this point, a young man’s voice came from outside the tent, and Doctor Hu nodded repeatedly, ”Yes, yes, that’s exactly it!”

”What!”

General Cao’s face turned ashen. Entering the Green Scale Imperial Snake Clan’s territory to steal the antidote was simply impossible.

Unless the entire force of Human Emperors inside the Sky-reaching Fortress moved together, there might be the slimmest chance, but even then, it would come with the risk of total annihilation!

One must remember, within the Northern Demon Clan’s territory, there exists a Demon Emperor!
