Dragon Blooded War God Chapter 642: Conditions

Chapter 642: Conditions

The Ancient Demon Corpse was the Ancient Demon Domain’s most mysterious treasure, and the Ancient Demon Flag was designed to solely control the corpse.
That treasure was now in Jiang Wuxie’s control.
Long Shan didn’t manage to stop him. After bringing the Ancient Demon Corpse under his control, Jiang Wuxie stared at Long Shan with cold eyes.
“So, will the senior from the Dragon clan step forward and try to take the Ancient Demon Corpse from me?” His eyes were flickering with amusement and his voice was arrogant.
Long Shan squinted. “No, it belongs to the Ancient Demon Domain. I have no intention of touching it.”
Jiang Wuxie chuckled, “Looks like you know a little about the Ancient Demon Domain.”
“I’ve only heard of it in passing. Jiang Wuxie, I will be clear with my demands. Since you obtained the Ancient Demon Corpse, you are technically recognized as someone at the Fourth Earthly Martial Stage. You’ve been suppressed by the Martial Overlord for the past few years, so I’m sure you have a grudge against-”
Jiang Wuxie interrupted, “Do you mean to suggest that we work together and defeat Zhao Wuji? You aren’t wrong. I do want to kill Zhao Wuji. With you around, the Dragon clan now has the requirements to work with me. However, I have a condition. I won’t cooperate with you if the condition is not fulfilled.”
Jiang Wuxie was adamant on that matter.“What is your condition?” Long Shan had a feeling he knew what it was.
Jiang Wuxie laughed. He walked towards the Ancient Demon Corpse and said, “It’s simple. Kill Long Chen. I want the Long Chen who killed my son to die. Give him to me and I will cooperate with you to deal with the Martial Alliance.”
Long Shan had expected that.
Long Yue was furious when Jiang Wuxie demanded Long Chen’s life. “Grandfather, there’s no way we can cooperate. Let’s go back.”
None of them would agree to sacrifice Long Chen just to cooperate with the Ancient Demon Domain.
Long Chen was also Long Shan’s savior; he had led the entire Long clan to escape the Nine Spirit Purgatory and he possessed unlimited potential. Long Shan would never sacrifice Long Chen for the sake of Jiang Wuxie, so he refused. “It seems that we cannot cooperate, then. Goodbye.”
Long Shan then walked towards Long Chen.
It was time to return to the Battle clan.
Just then, Jiang Wuxie’s cold voice came from behind Long Shan.
“Wait.” Jiang Wuxie laughed coldly as he waved the Ancient Demon Flag. “I don’t care if we cooperate or not, but Long Chen must die today. I will kill anyone who tries to stop me. Come and test the might of the Ancient Demon Corpse!”
Jiang Wuxie swung the Ancient Demon Flag and gave his orders. The Ancient Demon Corpse stood up and then shrunk mysteriously. The Ancient Demon Corpse stopped shrinking when it was around the same height as Jiang Wuxie. Now that it was smaller, its muscles were denser. Its horrifying aura was oppressive, and everyone sensed that the Ancient Demon Corpse became stronger in this form.
“Har … Hurh …” The Ancient Demon Corpse opened its mouth and panted, its single eye becoming blood-red again as its bloodlust burst forth.
“Time to fight?” Long Shan chuckled. As a senior in terms of cultivation, he didn’t fear the Ancient Demon Corpse. Long Shan was once at the Fifth Earthly Martial Realm, but his current condition didn’t allow him to use all of his strength. Once he fully recovered, he could easily defeat the Ancient Demon Corpse no matter how perfect Jiang Wuxie’s control over it was.
“I will kill those who dare to shield Long Chen.” Jiang Wuxie laughed arrogantly as he waved the flag. The Ancient Demon Corpse sprinted towards Long Chen. The ground dented every time it took a step.
Long Chen felt the suffocating pressure exerting on his body. There was nothing but the sprinting Ancient Demon Corpse in his eyes. The presence of the corpse intensified to the point that Long Chen felt like he couldn’t move.
It was as if a lamb had run into a lion.
Long Chen now knew the true gap between each stage of the Earthly Martial Realm. The Ancient Demon Corpse was so much stronger than him that he couldn’t retaliate at all.
“Impudent.” Long Shan blocked the Ancient Demon Corpse.
Long Chen sighed. The terrifying presence had caused him to break out in cold sweat.
“Long Chen, what’s wrong?” Liu Yiyi was worried about him.
She clearly cared for him.
“I’m fine.” Long Chen shook his head. “Eldest Sister, Senior Long Shan is still in the middle of his recovery. Will he be fine if he fights now?” He looked at Long Shan and the Ancient Demon Corpse fighting against each other.
Long Yue smiled bitterly and shook her head. “I don’t know.”
Long Chen could only watch the battle unfold anxiously.
The Ancient Demon Corpse relied purely on its physical strength to fight on par with Long Shan, who could utilize as much essence as a Fourth Earthly Martial Stage cultivator. The Ancient Demon Corpse must’ve been exceptionally strong when it was alive.
The power of the flesh was indeed terrifying. Every punch it threw caused the very air to explode. It managed to cause tremors whenever its fists landed onto the ground. Long Shan dared not take on the attacks directly but instead deflected them.
“Five Piercing Dragons.”
Long Shan’s execution of the technique was exquisite. The five dragons coiled around the Ancient Demon Corpse in an attempt to grind it to dust.
“Break!” Long Shan howled angrily as his claws made a screeching voice against the Ancient Demon Corpse’s rigid body. The battle was similar to Long Chen’s battle against Zhao Danchen, but the Ancient Demon Corpse’s body was tougher than the Golden Combat Body.
The two crossed each other, and Long Shan appeared behind the Ancient Demon Corpse. The latter was covered in lacerations so deep that everyone could see the bones, but Long Chen was surprised when he saw that the Ancient Demon Corpse wasn’t shedding a single drop of blood. More importantly, the lacerations were healing at a rapid speed.
What incredible regenerative abilities. Long Chen was even more wary of the Ancient Demon Corpse now.
I’m not sure if Senior Long Shan can continue to fight like this. He needs more time to rest and doesn’t have much stamina now. We will be in trouble if this keeps up. Long Chen frowned.
Long Shan was also frowning because he knew his limit.
“What do you think? I’m sure that the Ancient Demon Corpse is a surprisingly strong enemy for you.” Jiang Wuxie laughed and waved the Ancient Demon Flag. Strands of power flowed into the Ancient Demon Corpse.
Jiang Wuxie was satisfied with the Ancient Demon Corpse’s strength.
It was very strong.
If the mysterious Long Shan had such a tough time fighting against it, Jiang Wuxie was certain that the Martial Overlord would have a difficult time too. Jiang Wuxie finally had the strength to fight Zhao Wuji. He felt like his dream was going to come true.
Long Chen must die today.
Long Chen’s immeasurable potential made Jiang Wuxie feel pressured.
He would never rest until Long Chen was dead.
The Ancient Demon Corpse’s strength was endless. Jiang Wuxie commanded it to clash with Long Shan again and again. The horrific battle was more intense than Long Chen’s previous battle. Everyone had already evacuated while Jiang Wuxie had retreated until his back reached a mountain. He was afraid that Long Shan would attack him instead. Several strong experts from the Ancient Demon Domain saw that Jiang Wuxie was vulnerable, and they immediately surrounded the Demon Emperor to shield him from danger.
It would be difficult to launch a surprise attack unless they came from the back.
Jiang Wuxie could see everyone from his position. The moment Long Chen made any movement to steal the Ancient Demon Flag, Jiang Wuxie would immediately recall the Ancient Demon Corpse to protect him.
Everyone could do nothing but watch Long Shan battling the Ancient Demon Corpse.
Long Shan was more agile, but the Ancient Demon Corpse was stronger and tougher. Long Shan could only bide his time.
This is a very strong monster. What can I do to make it retreat? Long Shan was trying to come up with a plan as he fought. The Ancient Demon Corpse reminded him a lot of the previous Martial Overlord, though the Ancient Demon Corpse was even more sturdy. A single blow from it was more than enough to kill Long Shan.
“I have to take a risk.”
The Ancient Demon Corpse could only use basic punches and kicks, but those were more than enough to destroy a mountain.
The battle continued as Long Shan relied on his martial techniques. He used the Five Piercing Dragons again and clashed with the Ancient Demon Corpse’s attacks. This was the first time he had taken it head-on. Both of them were pushed back by the impact, with Long Shan’s face becoming paler while the Ancient Demon Corpse rolled on the ground.
After pushing the Ancient Demon Corpse down, Long Shan wasted no time—he suppressed his boiling blood and ran at the Ancient Demon Corpse while using his strongest technique, the Nine Heavens Strike.
