Chereads / Path of the Tyrant King / Chapter 52 - Rank 5 Demon

Chapter 52 - Rank 5 Demon

In the sky, the massive sky piercing blood palace released a sanguine aura, the aura shot towards the heavens piercing through the atmospheric barriers wrapping around the entire world. Three beams of light shot through the air toward the palace.

The first was red and cut through the air like a stream following a path, it was a red river and at the center was the Supreme Elder of the Human faction.

The second beam was white and unlike the first, it moved by displacing things around it. Rather than moving itself, it made everything else moves as it distorted through space. At the center of the beam was the Supreme Elder of the Immortal Faction.

The two beams swirled through the air leaving traces of Qi as the blasted through growing closer to the blood palace's imposing light. The last beam behind the elders was far more modest, it had a calm royal blue that rippled through the air.

The blue light was completely in line with nature but as they approached the blood palace; the beam started violently crackling with electrical power. As the blood palace released its splendor, the sky grew darker and darker until it was crimson.

Crimson clouds flitted across the sky shrouding even the red sun with their darkness. The clouds funneled toward the palace forming a massive swirling vortex of crimson Qi. The blood palace ascended to the heavens as the funnel grew.

The three lights stopped in front of the vortex of crimson clouds coalescing into three figures. The red-robed black haired man, the white-robed old man, and Ye Yuyan himself! The crimson Qi of the clouds filled the air around it shooting beams of crimson light everywhere.

The Supreme Elder released their auras and formed a blast shield around their bodies. Ye Yuyan's body radiated a peaceful royal blue aura that deterred the drifting crimson Qi. The crimson Qi reflected off their blast shields heading off into the distance.

"What the hell is Belphegor doing?" The Human elder cursed as he held up the integrity of his shield with hand seals.

"He's summoning the prestige of the Blood Palace!" The Immortal elder responded as he released his own hand seals onto his blast shield.

Only Ye Yuyan abstained from the action not even forming a shield as his royal aura forced all crimson Qi to either abstain or serve him. The elders looked at Ye Yuyan with increasing shock and felt confidence surge through their bodies.

Suddenly the spinning vortex stopped and the crimson Qi stopped revolving. As if everything in the world froze at that moment, and a green eye flew out of the palace doors into the vortex.

"ARRR!" A loud garbled scream shot through the vortex piercing into the ears of any onlookers.

Every crimson Qi in thousand meters started to surge and transform. The green eye at the center of the vortex released a green mist into the vortex forcing each individual strand of Qi to grow limbs as they twisted and grew.

The qi strands grew into bodies, then they grew arms and legs, then tails and even horns. The green mist filled their eye sockets turning into green demonic eyes.

One by one, ten thousand of green-eyed demons formed from the Qi. Some of the demons fused together turning to muscular green-eyed demons. The demons filled the entire sky with their red demonic forms and dark green beady eyes.

The Human Elder's perception scanned of the demons, and he felt their pulsing cultivations fill the sky, his countenance paled as the pulsing power faintly suppressed him. He has a quasi rank 5 cultivation and had already attained the realm of laws years ago.

With his quasi rank 5, he could use partially use the signature power of rank 5 experts; Body of law. It allowed an expert to fuse their aspect, themselves, and the earth to summon powers far beyond their imagining.

Before rank 5, all cultivators had access to the powers they stored inside of them and a certain range around them. But at Rank 5, one could access all the power in earth and become a body made from laws.

The Human Elder looked over at the Immortal Elder and scanned his expression. The Immortal Elder's eyes remained calm and lipid as it reflected the sight of the demons filling the sky.

"Don't worry, its nothing more than a show. Follow my lead." The Immortal Elder calmly stated to the Human Elder as a powerful white light burst from his body.

"Immortal Ocean!" The Immortal Elder roared releasing a torrent of white light, a third of the sky became engulfed in white light as a gigantic ocean of white light formed in the sky.

Ye Yuyan tapped out on the sky the moment the Immortal Elder moved, from his pointer finger shot out a lipid royal blue beam. It shot through the crimson vortex ripping it in half in a single stroke.

The dense layers of crimson clouds parted and the immortal ocean entered through the crack filling the vortex in moments.

The green-eyed demons roared as the white light engulfed them, they released greenish red light as they struggled against the engulfing light.

The Human Elder bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The essence seethed with excitement as he roared: "Red River!"

The blood essence ball burst into a colossal red river filling another third of the sky with blood, the red river shot through thousands of demons in an instant degrading them with the power of blood.

The red river and immortal ocean cut through the demons as the two bodies of water swirled through the crimson vortex. The sky filled with various colors dancing in a macabre scene like auroras.

As the elders caused havoc in the vortex, the palace doors started to rumble. Greenlight shone through the door as thousands of green eyes appeared across the palace. The demons intensified their efforts as the power of the demons rose every second.

Suddenly, the palace gates flew open entirely and from it shot out a black beam. The black beam coalesced into a grey-haired old man, it was Elder Qi Hong!

"Demon Elder! You damn traitor!" The Human Elder yelled from the top of his lungs as the red river flew around him destroying the green-eyed demons.

"You dare to show your face!" The Immortal Elder coldly intoned as his Immortal ocean slaughtered more demons.

The Demon Elder Qi Hong pursed his lips into a disdainful smirk and said: "Immortal Elder, you must still think you are stronger than me."

"But my master has already given me a new strength beyond compare!" A sneer suffused his face as his aura shot through the heavens reaching higher and higher.

"Both of you weaklings can scram!" Qi Hong roared as he threw out two palms simultaneously at the Immortal and Human Elders.

The human elder surrounded himself with layers of crimson Qi and the blood river when suddenly the sky rending palm came down slapping through the layers in an instant.

In a moment, the palm was before him its heaven destroying power on display as it slammed into his chest crushing his ribcage! His body flew back with a boom as he reached supersonic speeds.

The Immortal Elder didn't fare any better, as his ocean swirled and circled itself stacking into multiple layers.

But he wasn't fast enough and before he could form the final layer, the palm shot through hitting a weak spot. The ocean became like butter as the palm swiftly shot through and crashed into the Elder's chest.

The Immortal Elder brought up his own palm imposed with the ocean of immortals power. The moment the two palms met, the intense force of a mountain range transmitted through the Immortal Elder's palm.

His hand was instantly crushed as the bones in that arm broke irreparably. The palm pushed forward with indomitable motion intending to take his life.

But at the light moment, an intense white light shot off from the Immortal's Elder broken hand. The light wrapped around the palm and shot it off into a different direction.

In the air, the palm's power detonated into a gigantic explosion of black green Qi. The energy danced in the air turning into the form of demon head and dissipating into nothingness in the next moment.

The Immortal Elder's eyes flitted past the explosion of energy then he turned his gaze back to the Demon Elder. Then with a trembling voice, he solemnly said: "Rank 5..."

Looking into the Demon Elder's gaze he could see the head of a green-eyed goat mock him. The horrifying demonic gaze threatened to consume his soul when suddenly a royal blue aura wrapped around the Immortal Elder.

The calming blue aura filled his body up with serenity and peace as he felt his mind clear up. Ye Yuyan put down his raised hand and smirked coldly as his royal blue aura burst out filling the sky with his power. The crimson qi constantly fell back as Ye Yuyan royal blue turned into a world of its own!

Qi Hong's face turned pale as he felt Ye Yuyan's intense aura fill the entire sky, his hair stood on end in fear as Ye Yuyan's calm and lipid gaze landed on him. He felt as though he was a small ant standing before the splendor of the universe as he looked into Ye Yuyan's dark and cold eyes.

"Rank 5, good! That'll be enough to test my new power." Ye Yuyan smiled as his right eye shone with a blue light and a lightning mark appeared at its center!
