Chapter 693: Hundred Flowers Demon Empress

“Damn that Demoness!”

Qin Feng burst out of the Fire Vein, his hair in disarray.

He wanted to go and make trouble for the Demoness, but he simply lacked the strength.

His gaze shifted, landing on the twelve Chongming Lian Pearls.

One of them had already been refined with the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiend Prohibitions. With proper nurturing, it could become a Fire True Artifact.

What was rarest of all was that these Chongming Lian Pearls were a set.

If they all advanced to become True Artifacts and were forged into a set Array, their value would skyrocket severalfold.

Qin Feng opened his mouth and inhaled. The twelve Chongming Lian Pearls shot into his stomach like twelve streams of fire, where he began to slowly nurture them with his Grotto Heaven True Power.

“What happened?”

“My King, what’s going on inside?!”

Sensing the violent fluctuations of power from within the Fire Mansion, some of the leading Fire Demons had already rushed over.

Qin Feng’s expression flickered, and his form shifted, transforming into the Red Flame Demon King.

He opened his mouth and berated the two Fire Demon guards who had just entered. “What’s all the panic? Have you no decorum? I am in my own Cave Mansion. What could possibly happen?!”

The two Fire Demon guards were so thoroughly berated they couldn’t even lift their heads. They scratched their heads and quickly retreated.

Seeing that he had fooled the guards, Qin Feng’s gaze fell upon the Fire Universe Furnace above his head, which looked like a fiery firmament. He felt a pang of greed.

However, Qin Feng knew his limits. This Fire True Artifact already had an owner, and while that Demoness was fierce and domineering, she wouldn’t lie to him about it.

Qin Feng had also used the Qiankun Celestial Phenomena to divine the outcome.

If he didn’t touch the Fire Universe Furnace, the signs were extremely auspicious.

But if he did, it would be calamitous.

Before leaving, Qin Feng took the opportunity to plunder the Fire Mansion, but unfortunately, his gains were meager.

Qin Feng knew that the Red Flame Demon King and the others now kept their treasures hidden in their own Grotto Heavens.

For the time being, he didn’t have the ability to directly tear open the Grotto Heavens of these powerful experts and seize their treasures.

With some regret, he departed decisively.

After transforming into the Red Flame Demon King, Qin Feng began visiting the city’s experts one by one. He tricked and assassinated the other three Great Demon Kings—the Red Dragon King, the Red Spirit King, and the Sky Fire Sparrow King—leaving only the Fire Spirit Demoness.

Those poor three Great Demon Kings were Supreme Great Powers who had even cultivated a Yin God, yet they were ambushed and assassinated by Qin Feng without even knowing what hit them.

With these three Great Demon Kings out of the way, Qin Feng immediately got to work.

He transformed in the Void, then suddenly formed a seal and summoned a Flame Mountain.

With a tremendous BOOM, the Flame Mountain smashed heavily down upon Red Flame City.

Countless members of the Demon Race and Alien Races died violent deaths.

Even Martial Arts Giants were crushed to death!

In a single strike, the entire Red Flame City was almost flattened!

‘My strength has improved!’ Qin Feng clearly sensed the change.

Having cultivated the new Eight Extremes Divine Transformation from the Eight Desolates Undying Body Heavenly Scripture, Qin Feng’s understanding of the Fire Element had taken a monumental leap, like a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate.

Before, he might not have been able to crush a Martial Dao Great Power to death, but that was no longer the case.

The countless flames wreathing the Flame Mountain had grown in power in proportion to Qin Feng’s comprehension of the Flame Law, and they were now strong enough to easily burn a Martial Arts Giant to ashes.

“ROAR! Who is the attacker?!”

“Above us! It’s a Human Race expert! Let’s fight him to the death!”

“Fight him my ass! Everyone, scatter! Survive this, and we’ll come back to get our revenge!”

…

Seven or eight streams of light shot up from the ruins. A few of these Great Powers charged suicidally toward Qin Feng, but the vast majority fled in all directions.

“Still thinking of revenge? You’re courting death!”

Qin Feng’s eyes swept over them, and hundreds of miles of the Void silently froze solid.

The expressions on the faces of the eight Supreme Great Powers froze, their bodies completely immobilized in the Void.

Qin Feng waved his great sleeve, and a tidal wave of Void-shaking power swept past.

BANG! BANG! BANG!!

One after another, the bodies of the eight Demon Race Great Powers instantly shattered. Even their souls were pulverized, and their vitality was completely erased.

“Another Demon City has fallen. Including Red Flame City, Qin Feng has now destroyed a total of six ordinary Demon Cities and one giant city. That record places him in the top three!”

At Shaoyang Stronghold, many Village Chiefs sighed with emotion as they witnessed Qin Feng’s progress.

Ren Changhong of Shui Xing said with admiration, “What’s most incredible is that he has relied on himself from start to finish!”

A trace of regret filled Ren Changhong’s eyes. “It’s just a pity that he’s on his own, alone and outnumbered. He can’t compare to Junior Sister Lian Biyun and Junior Sister Gongsun. Junior Sister Lian Biyun has already conquered seven ordinary Demon Cities and two giant cities!”

Beside him, Yan Feng of Mars glanced at his old rival and also shook his head. “That’s right. The position of Peach Blossom Village Chief isn’t just a test of one’s cultivation; it also depends on one’s foundation and whether one can hold onto the position!”

“There are always exceptions. If someone possesses absolute strength, no one would dare to gossip,” Le Wudao said nonchalantly.

“Let’s not get sidetracked,” Ren Changhong said slowly, his eyes glinting. “Although this junior brother possesses a Medium-sized Grotto Heaven, his strength is only slightly greater than that of an ordinary Saint. I’m afraid it will be very difficult for a single Saint to take on the giant cities that come next!”

“But I don’t know how he managed to destroy Red Flame City. That city is suppressed by a fearsome Innate True Artifact. According to our calculations, he shouldn’t have been able to kill the Red Flame Demon King, right?”

He voiced the question on the minds of all the Village Chiefs in the stronghold.

“The power of the Innate True Artifact in Red Flame Stronghold interferes with our Primordial Light Mirror, so its power can’t get through. Qin Feng must have some other special trump card!”

Many of the Village Chiefs were speculating.

Many coveted the Innate True Artifact in Red Flame City, but all the Village Chiefs knew the truth of the matter—it was a juicy piece of meat that they could only look at, not touch.

“From the looks of it, Junior Sister Gongsun is still the most likely one to claim the position of Peach Blossom Village Chief this time.”

“Based on the current situation, that’s right. Junior Sister Gongsun has the Five Saints of Liu Tu and many other friends providing support from the shadows!”

“Junior Sister Gongsun is devastatingly beautiful and has a wide circle of friends. Experts from Liu Tu Peak are constantly clearing a path for her, and she has already reached the third giant city, Wanhua City. This is the final giant city, a gathering place for countless Flower Demons. If she breaks through, she’ll have a straight path to the Golden Light Demon Capital! However, this giant city won’t be conquered anytime soon. The Golden Light Demon Country, and even some surrounding Demon Kingdoms, have reacted. Although our allies have intercepted most of the Demon Saint Level experts, quite a few still managed to get there!”

“Wanhua City will be a tough nut to crack. Its City Lord is a disciple of the Hundred Flowers Demon Empress and also has many powerful supporters!”

“Brother Lu is absolutely right. The Hundred Flowers Demon Empress is a peerless Ancient Saint who made a name for herself long ago. Most importantly, she is known as one of the ten great beauties of the Spirit Sea Realm. That title alone is enough to attract countless experts!”

At the mention of the Hundred Flowers Demon Empress, many of the Village Chiefs got a nostalgic look in their eyes, appearing completely captivated.

The Three Stars exchanged a glance. The Hundred Flowers Demon Empress was an expert from the same era as their master, the Demon Suppression Heavenly King.

According to rumor, even the Demon Suppression Heavenly King himself was once one of her pursuers.

“The second giant city, Earth Pole City!”

In mid-air, Qin Feng recalled the second giant city marked on the map scroll.

This second giant city was different from the first one he had conquered, Frost Snow City.

‘After all this time, the people in the Golden Light Demon Capital must have figured things out. Earth Pole City should have at least two, maybe even more than two, Saints stationed there!’

Qin Feng frowned. With his current strength, dealing with one Saint was more than manageable. But if there were two, a draw would be the best he could hope for.

If there were three, he would be the one getting hunted down!
