Eternal Sacred King

2529 Number One Beneath Grotto-heaven

Everyone quickened their steps and even used movement techniques, turning into streaks of light that sped forward, afraid that the Martial Dao Prime Body would steal the treasures again.

Before long, everyone caught sight of a second palace.

The palace was even wider and grander than the previous palace. The shelves were still empty except for a purple-robed cultivator with a silver mask who stood alone in the middle of the hall.

The expressions of many cultivators darkened completely and many of them looked at the Martial Dao Prime Body with strong hostility!

There were so many treasures in the tomb that even if everyone might get a share even if they charged forth together.

But now, so many treasures were taken by a single person. How could all the cultivators present accept that?!

Although everyone was wary of Desolate Martial’s notorious reputation, the Perfected Fiends present were not weak either.

Furthermore, there were a few half-step Grotto-heaven experts present!

Even if Desolate Martial was the Supreme Perfected Fiend, he had no chance of winning against half-step Grotto-heaven experts!

When they saw that Desolate Martial was about to leave first, many cultivators swarmed forward and surrounded the Martial Dao Prime Body in the blink of an eye!

The group of Perfected Fiends led by Duan Ming and Song Shi of Firmament Ascension Palace and the young masters of the seven heaven-grade fiend sects glared at the Martial Dao Prime Body with unfriendly expressions.

The Martial Dao Prime Body looked at the group of people expressionlessly without saying anything. His gaze was as though he was looking at a group of ants.

“Desolate Martial, don’t go overboard!”

Duan Ming said in a deep voice, “Everyone who sees the treasures in this tomb should get a share. Don’t even think about taking everything for yourself!”

“Desolate Martial, we’re not willing to be enemies with you.”

After a brief pause, the young master of Black Fiend Sect changed the topic and said coldly, “However, you’ll have to ask us first if you want to keep the treasures here for yourself!”

“That’s right!”

The young master of Heavenly Evil Sect sneered, “Desolate Martial, spit out all the treasures you took away earlier on and redistribute them!”

The young masters of the heaven-grade fiend sects expressed their stance.

In their opinion, even if Desolate Martial was strong, he could not defend against so many Perfected One and half-step Grotto-heaven experts.

Furthermore, all of them were backed by the Sect Masters of the various fiend sects.

Those were top-tier Fiend King experts who were camping right outside the Fiend Cave, ready to charge in at any moment!

The Martial Dao Prime Body understood.

The group of cultivators thought that he had taken all the treasures in the two palace halls for himself!

The Martial Dao Prime Body did not explain nor did he bother to.

He merely surveyed his surroundings and asked slowly with a cold and intimidating gaze, “Who gave you the guts to provoke me, huh?”

Before his sentence was finished, the Martial Dao Prime Body suddenly attacked and grabbed the young master of Black Fiend Sect in front of him at lightning speed!

The Martial Dao Prime Body opened his heavenly-encompassing palm and his fingers were like five heavenly-piercing stone pillars, imprisoning the young master of Black Fiend Sect before closing!

The five heavenly-piercing stone pillars squeezed the body of the young master of Black Fiend Sect and a blood mist spewed everywhere!

“Ah!”

In a tragic cry, the young master of Black Fiend Sect was crushed by a single palm strike from the Martial Dao Prime Body and his Essence Spirit was destroyed, dying on the spot!

At the same time, a black incomplete diagram floated down.

The Martial Dao Prime Body put away the black incomplete diagram conveniently.

The black incomplete diagram in the hands of the young master of Black Fiend Sect was made of the same material as the one in his storage bag and definitely had some connection.

Furthermore, he had just noticed that the young master of Black Fiend Sect was not the only one with a black incomplete diagram in his hands—the other six young masters of the fiend sects did too.

‘Since you guys said that I wanted to take all the treasures for myself, I’ll show you guys the true meaning of that right now!’

The Martial Dao Prime Body attacked fiercely and crushed the young master of Black Fiend Sect with a single palm strike. After snatching the black incomplete diagram, he grabbed the young master of Yellow Springs Villa at the side.

Duan Ming was enraged and hollered, “Desolate Martial, how dare you!”

“Kill him!”

Many cultivators shouted as well and attacked.

Duan Ming and Song Shi channeled their blood qi and charged towards the Martial Dao Prime Body in a triangular manner.

Huff! Huff!

The Martial Dao Prime Body threw out two punches in succession!

Every single punch was filled with immense strength and was unstoppable!

Before the two punches descended, Duan Ming and Song Shi felt a scorching suffocating sensation and could not breathe. Their bloodlines seemed like they were about to evaporate!

The two of them finally experienced the pressure of Prince Ling Xian facing that punch.

The two of them did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly condensed their Grotto-heavens.

Although half-step Grotto-heaven experts failed in their breakthroughs to the Grotto-heaven realm, they could condense Grotto-heaven phantoms and make use of a wisp of Grotto-heaven power.

Even that single wisp was sufficient to suppress all Perfected Immortals and Perfected Fiends!

However, the Grotto-heaven phantoms of Duan Ming and Song Shi dissipated the moment they appeared!

Bang! Bang!

The two of them received the two punches of the Martial Dao Prime Body almost with their physiques only!

Both of their eyes widened and their gazes dimmed. They froze in midair for a moment before their bodies exploded into blood mists!

Both their Essence Spirits were killed by a single punch from the Martial Dao Prime Body!

The Martial Dao Prime Body did not know why their Grotto-heaven phantoms suddenly failed.

However, even if the two of them could completely condense their Grotto-heaven phantoms, they would not be able to defend against his greater mastery of the True Martial Dao Body!

Back when the True Martial Dao Body was at lesser mastery, the Martial Dao Prime Body fought against Yan Zui and the others and used up all his trump cards. He had to rely on the Hell Suppression Tripod to suppress a half-step Grotto-heaven.

But now that he had attained greater mastery of the True Martial Dao Body, he could sweep through all half-step Grotto-heavens barehanded!

He was the number one beneath the Grotto-heaven realm!

However, if he was up against a true Grotto-heaven realm expert, the Martial Dao Prime Body did not know if he could take such an opponent head-on without the use of the Hell Suppression Tripod.

After all, the True Martial realm only corresponded to the Perfected One realm of the immortal, Buddhist and fiend Daos and had yet to reach a higher level of power.

As for the Grotto-heaven realm, the comprehension and power one controlled after condensing the Grotto-heaven realm had completely surpassed the Perfected One realm and was at another level!

That was a difference that was impossible to make up for, akin to heaven and earth.

Of course, the Martial Dao Prime Body was a variable after all. He smelted all Dharmic arts, absorbed a hundred sutras, established the Martial Dao and passed through the Tenth Tribulation—he was the first in history!

If he could cultivate the True Martial Dao Body to a perfected state, he would have sufficient confidence to break through the barrier between the two major cultivation realms and suppress ordinary Immortal Kings of the Grotto-heaven realm!

On the battlefield.

Two half-step Grotto-heaven experts were killed by two punches from the Martial Dao Prime Body, causing the expressions of many Perfected Fiends to change!

The fiends finally snapped out of their greed and realized what sort of a terrifying existence the person they had provoked was!

If even a half-step Grotto-heaven expert could not withstand a single punch from him, who else could?

Everyone’s lives depended on a single thought from Desolate Martial!

Whoosh!

There were more than a hundred Perfected Fiend experts from the seven heaven-grade fiend sects and Firmament Ascension Palace. Instantly, they dispersed and fled in all directions.

“Trying to escape?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body had long locked onto the few young masters of the fiend sects!

Swoosh!

The young master of Yellow Springs Villa did not manage to escape far before the Martial Dao Prime Body caught up to him and killed him with a single punch, snatching the black incomplete diagram.

The figure of the Martial Dao Prime Body did not stop at all. In the blink of an eye, he arrived behind the young master of Godfiend Ridge and punched without saying anything.

Bang!

The punch struck his back!

The young master of Godfiend Ridge was shattered by the Martial Dao Prime Body and the latter obtained the black incomplete diagram.

The figure of the Martial Dao Prime Body flashed carelessly on the battlefield. Each time he attacked, there would definitely be blood and the young masters of the fiend sects were scared out of their wits!
