Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

”No,” the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving answered with resignation. ”My true form isn’t that of an ordinary demonic beast. It’s incredibly difficult for me to take human form.”

”Oh.” Ye Chen nodded. ”If you behave yourself, I might just be able to lend you a hand.”

”Really?” The Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving was taken aback, finding it hard to believe.

Transformation techniques were exceedingly rare, and ones that could allow a demonic beast of its caliber to take human form were even more so.

Given Ye Chen’s youth, the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving was skeptical that he could actually help it.

”You recognize that Snow Jade White Fox, don’t you?”

”I was the one who granted it the technique to take human form.”

Ye Chen glanced at the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving. Seeing its expression of utter skepticism, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

”It has a technique for taking human form now?” The Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving was somewhat surprised, but it didn’t get too excited.

After all, a technique that worked for the Snow Jade White Fox wouldn’t necessarily work for it.

The difficulty of its own transformation was much greater than that of the Snow Jade White Fox.

”I can give you a glimpse.”

Ye Chen extended a finger and gently tapped the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving on the head.

In that instant, countless images appeared before the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving’s eyes. They were a torrent of information condensed into visuals, each character shimmering with a brilliant golden light and suffused with an astonishing, mighty power.

But after only a fleeting moment, the images shattered and vanished completely.

The Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving was startled. ’I didn’t even get a clear look!’

But one thing was certain: this was a transformation technique of an astonishingly high caliber. Forget the Snow Jade White Fox—even it could easily take human form with this!

”Well?”

”Do you believe me now?”

Ye Chen withdrew his hand and said calmly.

”I believe you! I believe you!”

The Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving swallowed hard, its eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement.

It had thought that being forcibly abducted by this young man was a catastrophe.

But now, it seemed things weren’t so bad after all!

’This might even be a great opportunity!’

The Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving had, after all, been stuck at the Peak of the Divinity Transformation Realm for many years.

To break through to the Divine Might Realm, it had to comprehend the Laws of the Great Dao and cultivate the power of Divine Might.

And the Human Race was known as the most spiritually endowed of all creation.

Only by taking the form of a human could it better comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and grasp the secrets of the Divine Might Realm!

Otherwise, it would remain stuck at this bottleneck indefinitely.

The Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving was considered an exceptionally powerful variant among demonic beasts, so its path to transformation was naturally fraught with hardship.

In other words, to pursue a higher path of cultivation, it first had to successfully take human form. But finding a suitable technique for that was a thorny problem in itself.

But today, the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving finally saw a glimmer of hope.

The youth before it very likely possessed a technique that could allow it to successfully take human form!

’This was something even my former master never had!’

Seeing that the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving had finally submitted to him, body and soul, Ye Chen’s mood improved considerably.

’As expected, to truly tame a Great Demon like this, you can’t just use force. You have to offer a little something sweet now and then.’

If before, the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving had just been Ye Chen’s heartless enforcer and mount, then now, it had truly and genuinely accepted Ye Chen, regarding him as its true master!

Seeing the man and his bird whispering incessantly to each other, Luo Rou felt incredibly annoyed.

’That Ye Chen... he’d rather entertain that bird than talk to me?’

Soon, the group successfully boarded the vessel.

They encountered no obstacles. Mo Tianyun simply presented something to prove his identity, and the Cultivator checking tickets immediately stepped aside respectfully to let them pass.

An attendant led Mo Tianyun’s party to a lounge area, handed Mo Tianyun a Token, and then departed in a hurry.

”Sky-Class Room One?”

”What kind of place is this?”

Ye Chen was taken aback as he read the words on the Token.

”The accommodations on this Cloud Mist Tower Ship are, of course, also divided by rank.”

”The finer the rooms, the more expensive they are to stay in.”

Mo Tianyun explained, stroking the Token in his hand, ”But this Sky-Class Room One... it’s something that money can’t buy.”

’Something money can’t buy!’ Ye Chen couldn’t help but take a closer look at the Token.

A faint current of air swirled around the Token, making it seem ancient and mysterious.

Ye Chen could tell at a glance that a miniature Array was carved onto it.

”Correct.”

”Only Cultivators of sufficient status are qualified to stay in the Sky-Class rooms.”

”Ordinary people can’t purchase a Token for a place like this, no matter how much money they have.”

With that, Mo Tianyun led the way with practiced ease, soon bringing Ye Chen and the others to the Sky-Class building.

It was the tallest structure on the entire Cloud Mist Tower Ship. The top seemed to disappear into the sky, wreathed in a faint mist and reinforced by the power of Arrays to ensure its stability.

Pushing open the courtyard gate, the first thing they saw was a large, crystal-clear Lotus Pool. Several rockeries were situated within it, and beneath them, carp shimmering with a green light swam leisurely.

As he stepped into the courtyard, Ye Chen immediately felt the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi become much richer.

He glanced around in surprise.

This area, home to the Sky-Class rooms, truly lived up to its reputation as the most prestigious location on the entire Cloud Mist Tower Ship.

With just a cursory glance, he spotted more than a dozen Arrays hidden from sight, operating silently!

Among them, in addition to the common Spirit-Gathering Array, there were also Dust-Dispelling Arrays, Mind-Clearing Arrays, and numerous other large-scale Arrays with beneficial effects.

There were even dedicated Array Masters on standby nearby. If any of the Arrays malfunctioned, or if the Spirit Stones powering them ran low, they would immediately step in to resolve the issue.

Beside the Lotus Pool stood a large complex of buildings, antique and full of charm, with exquisitely carved beams and painted pillars.

Deep within the architectural complex, a staircase led straight to the upper floors.

The guest rooms for Ye Chen’s party were on the upper floors, and they had to take this staircase all the way up.

Elegantly dressed and beautiful maids were already waiting at the bottom of the stairs.

Upon seeing Mo Tianyun and his party, they bowed slightly. One of them, a young woman who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen, stepped forward and gestured. ”Honored guests, this way please.”

The sight of the smiling young woman—her skin as smooth as cream, her face as lovely as a flower—leading the way was a pleasant surprise for Ye Chen and the others.

But the Crimson Nether Flame Prison Carving on Ye Chen’s shoulder couldn’t help but squawk, ”Wh-what a beautiful girl! C-can I watch the moon with you tonight?”
