With a loud bang, a wall was immediately broken through. Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a figure stepped out of the hole in the wall. It was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man with deep eyes. He was suspected to be a Demon Emperor.
This person's expression was indifferent, and his eyes were as calm as an ancient well. He didn't even make a move, but a terrifying dark energy blasted out. It was like a drill that carried an incomparably shocking power as it ruthlessly smashed into the sturdy wall. It broke through the wall and blasted a hole in it.
The walls in Demon Emperor Xing Gu's mausoleum were very hard, but they were nothing to a Demon Emperor. Otherwise, if even a Demon Emperor couldn't break through the wall, it would be a precious treasure.
In fact, although the wall was very hard, it couldn't withstand a Demon Emperor's attack. In fact, if a top-notch Demon King attacked with all his strength, it could also break through the wall. However, the gap between a top-notch Demon King and a Demon Emperor was very obvious. It was a qualitative difference. Therefore, if one wanted to break through the wall, he would need to use all his strength. This meant that the consumption of his strength would increase. Under normal circumstances, a top-notch Demon King wouldn't do this.
Chen Zong was in a good mood, and there was a smile on his face. This was because he had obtained a Demon Soul and successfully refined it, upgrading the Ancient God Sword Armor from the soldier level to the general level.
In terms of multiplier, the soldier level Ancient God Sword Armor increased strength, speed, and defense by three times, while the general level Ancient God Sword Armor increased strength, speed, and defense by six times.
Six times and three times were only one time. However, the soldier level Ancient God Sword Armor and the general level Ancient God Sword Armor didn't just increase the multiplier. There was also a qualitative change in power.
The difference between the Demon King level and the Demon Emperor level was whether or not the Demon Soul was condensed. The Demon Soul was the essence of a Demon Emperor's strength. After the strength was condensed into the Demon Soul, it would undergo a qualitative change. It would be upgraded to a higher level from the original foundation, like turning rotten wood into fine steel.
Even if the amount of strength was the same, the power of the Demon Emperor level was stronger than that of the Demon King level.
In addition to increasing the intrinsic quality of Chen Zong's power, the greatest effect of the General-Grade Ancient Divine Armor was that after Chen Zong's power was displayed through the Ancient Divine Sword Armor, his power had changed and become purer than before.
However, without activating the Ancient God Sword Armor, Chen Zong's strength was still at the top-notch Demon King level. Even if the original foundation was strengthened, he hadn't broken through the limit and reached the Demon Emperor level.
Chen Zong was also thinking about this point. In the end, he could only conclude that it was due to the bloodline of the race.
There was only one word difference between the Devil Cultivator Clan and the Human Clan, or rather, one word more, but the Devil Cultivator Clan's bloodline was higher than the Human Clan's. After all, the Devil Cultivator Clan was the second strongest clan after the Ancient God Clan, and the strongest clan, the Celestial Clan, was actually not much stronger than the Devil Cultivator Clan.
................ by all means.........
. A superior bloodline meant a more powerful potential and a more shocking upper limit.
The strongest True Saint Realm expert in the human race could only be equivalent to a top-notch Demon King, and there were very few of them. Most of them didn't have a pure human bloodline, but had fused with other bloodlines.
However, the Demon Emperor could break through this limit and condense a Demon Soul. From there, they could break through the limit of the Demon King level and reach the higher Demon Emperor level.
This was the same for the Celestial Clan. However, the probability of the Celestial Clan breaking the limit was higher than that of the Demon Emperor.
Chen Zong had a pure human bloodline. He had never thought of fusing with the bloodline of other races to increase his upper limit. Instead, he used other methods, such as the Ancient God Armor.
In fact, to a certain extent, the Ancient God Armor was equivalent to a bloodline, and it wouldn't affect him.
After all, the bloodline was the foundation of a race. If one fused with other bloodlines, they would be affected imperceptibly. Their temperament would also change bit by bit. This change wouldn't happen in a short period of time, and they wouldn't notice it.
For example, fusing with the bloodline of the Demon Emperor Clan. The Demon Emperor Clan was naturally close to darkness. Therefore, the bloodline of the Demon Emperor Clan would unknowingly make one's temperament colder.
While moving quickly, Chen Zong saw another small altar. It was the same small altar as the one that stored the Demon Soul. However, instead of the Demon Soul, there was a scimitar floating on it. The scimitar was black, but the blade was glowing with a scarlet luster. It was unusually dazzling.
The scimitar seemed to be emitting an ominous aura.
Treasure!
This was the treasure left behind by the Demon Emperor Xing Gu. It could also be the treasure of the Demon Emperor Zhui Ming and the Blood Sword Demon Emperor.
However, no matter what, the treasure left behind by the three Demon Emperors was definitely extraordinary. Even if he couldn't use it, he could sell it. It was very valuable.
Just as Chen Zong approached the scimitar, a figure appeared on the opposite side. A branch-like black tentacle instantly pierced through the air, penetrating the invisible defensive force of the altar. It was about to wrap around the scimitar.
The sword light suddenly flashed and instantly slashed out, leaving a clear and fine sword mark in the void. It directly struck the dark branch, and the astonishing sharpness of the sword cut the branch in half.
The sword light turned soft and instantly wrapped around the scimitar, pulling the scimitar over.
"So, it's you." A figure appeared on the opposite side. He was surrounded by wisps of dark aura. The dark aura was very dense, as though it was about to materialize. It condensed into branches that swayed in the wind.
It was Shu Muyuan. His two top-notch Demon King guards weren't here. Only Shu Muyuan was here.
"Hand over the treasure and submit to me." Shu Muyuan stared coldly at Chen Zong. His tone was cold and domineering. The current him needed a guard, a guard that was strong enough.
What's more, it was good to have one more top-notch guard.
Chen Zong stared at Shu Muyuan. His eyes gradually became sharp.
If he killed this person and extracted his bloodline, he should be able to sell it for a lot of money. He might even be able to exchange it for a Heavenly Soul or a chance to enter the ruins of the Celestial Epoch Fragment of the Universe.
Sensing the killing intent in Chen Zong's eyes, Shu Muyuan sneered. The power of the bloodline of the Tree of Eternal Darkness was completely stimulated. Strands of dark aura suddenly spread out, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws like the tentacles of an octopus, or like seaweed dancing in the water. Thousands of branches rapidly pierced in all directions, instantly forming a domain.
This domain seemed to isolate everything around it. Chen Zong immediately saw branches spreading out in all directions. He could sense that the void around him had become sluggish, as though it had become viscous. It was as though he had fallen into a swamp. All of his reactions were affected, including his perception.
An astonishing invisible pressure continued to press down on Chen Zong from all directions, as if wanting to directly suppress him here. Then, thousands of branches spread out like thousands of poisonous snakes, whipping and entangling from all directions.
There was no blind spot to be attacked from all directions.
Last time, Chen Zong fought Shu Muyuan with Bai Yi and Jing Wuxue. The three of them shared the pressure, but this time, he was alone. Immediately, Chen Zong felt the terrible pressure more clearly. It was as if he had fallen into a swamp, or fell into a spider web, or fell between countless vines. It was difficult to break free, and the more he struggled, the longer he was entangled.
"If I had not refined the Devil's Soul, I would not have been able to resist and would have been directly suppressed." This thought flashed through Chen Zong's mind, but he did not panic at all. There was no need to panic, because he was not the same as before.
Strength!
The improvement of strength and the transformation of the essence of power.
Armed!
In a flash, a silver-gray fluid rapidly seeped out of his body, filling every inch of Chen Zong's body. It completely covered him, and in a few seconds, it solidified into a set of exquisite and sturdy full-body armor. There were bright silver inscriptions on it, and it radiated with wondrous pulses of presence.
Ancient God Sword Armor!
General Level Ancient God Sword Armor!
Shu Muyuan's dark eyes flashed with a touch of surprise. When he fought with this person not long ago, the armor he saw was not like this. It was much simpler.
Why did the appearance of the armor change so much in such a short time?
Shu Muyuan did not think about the Ancient God Clan because he did not know about the Ancient God Clan. He only thought that it was a kind of bloodline power.
The bloodline of the Demon Tribe was a general term, and there were many differences among them. It was not rare for a bloodline to condense a set of armor on the body after being stimulated.
Then, if the appearance of the armor changed, it generally meant that the bloodline had changed.
Could it be that this person's bloodline had evolved?
The level of the bloodline was not fixed. It could be improved, but it was very difficult to improve.
For no reason, Shu Muyuan felt uneasy. He was worried that the other party's bloodline had improved for some reason in a short time.
The other party's original strength was at the level of a top Demon King, which was a little stronger than his two guards. If the bloodline had improved, then what would his strength be?
How much would it improve?
Soon, Shu Muyuan found out.
After Chen Zong equipped the Ancient God Sword Armor, he immediately felt an extremely tyrannical power surging all over his body. This power was surging like the sea and a volcano that was about to erupt.
He drew his sword!
With a flash of sword light, Chen Zong instantly slashed out with his tyrannical power.
After the transformation of the General Level Ancient God Sword Armor, the essence of the power of the Mixed Yuan Heart Force had transformed to a certain extent. With a slash of the sword, it immediately cut off the shackles in all directions. Body and sword became one. With a flash of sword light, it directly attacked Shu Muyuan.
Shu Muyuan's expression suddenly changed.
The thing he was most worried about had happened. Compared to before, this person's strength had greatly improved. Or rather, this person had deliberately hidden his strength before for some reason and only revealed it now that he was alone.
Regardless of the reason, Shu Muyuan knew that he was in trouble because this person's strength, if there were no accidents, should have reached the Demon Emperor level.
