Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 794, Making a Move

Boom! Poof!

The sword aura slashed at the ancient demon tree, instantly sending it flying. However, at this moment, the ancient demon tree was at its peak of power, and Qian Liwang's sword aura couldn't leave any injury on it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, another demon king perished. On the battlefield, only Qian Liwang, the Three-eyed Demon King, and the Sollo Demon King were struggling to hold on.

Boom!

A thick branch from the ancient demon tree instantly tore through the three's defense circle, fiercely striking Qian Liwang.

"Poof..."

Qian Liwang was instantly blasted away. However, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes because four-fifths of the ancient demon tree's body had withered. That meant only one-fifth of its life force remained.

Boom!

Taking advantage of the recoil force, Qian Liwang swiftly retreated. He knew in his heart that the ancient demon tree would truly go mad now, as death was genuinely terrifying.

Indeed, as soon as Qian Liwang retreated, the ancient demon tree went berserk again. Its eerie laughter echoed through the cave.

"Hehe, you want me to die? You won't have it easy either!!"

Boom!

A demon flame spewed from the human-like mouth of the ancient demon tree. In an instant, the Sollo Demon King was incinerated to ashes without even a scream.

Out of the original six invincible demon kings, only two remained in just a few breaths.

"Heaven-Reaching Divine Eye·Shift!"

Boom!

A strange light flashed in the third eye of the Three-eyed Demon King. Immediately, he roared fiercely, and terrifying sound waves swept across the stars.

Suddenly, the void became chaotic, and countless starlight fell. Seeing this, a faint unease flashed in Qian Liwang's heart.

Swoosh!

Boom!

The void blurred. When Qian Liwang reacted, his demon body was already within ten meters of the ancient demon tree. He looked up and saw the Three-eyed Demon King had retreated from the tree's attack range.

"No!!!"

Despair flashed in Qian Liwang's eyes. He understood that the Three-eyed Demon King had used his third eye's power to swap their positions instantly. Originally, he could be safe, but now he faced the ancient demon tree's frenzied attacks.

Given his half-destroyed demon body, the tree's attacks meant certain death.

The Three-eyed Demon King, also extremely weak after using the third eye's power, saw the despair in Qian Liwang's eyes but felt a hint of relief. If not for the third eye, he would be the one dying today.

As a member of the Demon Race in the Restricted Area, it was survival of the fittest. It was extremely cold-blooded. The Three-eyed Demon King felt no guilt for betraying Qian Liwang. He believed Qian Liwang would do the same in his place.

Boom!

The ancient demon tree's attack landed silently, killing Qian Liwang brutally. Crimson blood splattered.

Boom!

"I am unwilling!!!"

The ancient demon tree cried out mournfully. By now, its body had completely withered, and the demonic qi was rapidly dissipating, like an ordinary dead tree.

Boom!

Suddenly, the ancient demon tree collapsed and became lifeless.

Sigh!

The Three-eyed Demon King let out a sigh of relief. His eyes showed both relief and joy. As long as he could hand over the Jiuyu Cloud Map to the Restricted Area, he would receive vast rewards and could ascend to the emperor rank in one move.

Step, step, step!

The Three-eyed Demon King walked slowly towards the Jiuyu Cloud Map, keeping his third eye open. Although the ancient demon tree had fallen, he was still cautious and ready to act.

"Hahaha... Jiuyu Cloud Map... is... mine..."

Holding the Jiuyu Cloud Map, the Three-eyed Demon King was overjoyed and couldn't help but laugh. But his laughter stopped short.

Boom!

A terrifying fist force shot through the back of the Three-eyed Demon King, piercing his demon body like paper. Blood splattered.

The joy in the Three-eyed Demon King's eyes quickly faded. At this moment, he could clearly feel his life force slipping away. This uncontrollable feeling filled him with despair.

"It's..."

He slowly turned his head, wanting to see who struck him. But in an instant, his life force was entirely drained.

Boom!

His body collapsed, revealing a blood-robed figure behind him. Chu Ming gently wiped the blood off his hands, feeling very satisfied with his punch.

"The Jiuyu Cloud Map?"

Chu Ming lightly picked up the silver scroll from the ground, feeling its smooth texture. When he opened it, it was blank, not a word written on it.

After placing the Jiuyu Cloud Map into his ring, Chu Ming searched the entire cave, collecting the storage rings of the six demon kings. Just as he was about to leave, he stopped beside the ancient demon tree's body.

Slash!

The Azure Sky Sword was unsheathed. With a single slash, Chu Ming split the ancient demon tree's body in half. If the tree were still alive, his sword wouldn't have left any trace, but now it was dead.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A jade green heart appeared before Chu Ming, rapidly expanding and contracting, strong and powerful. Simultaneously, a vast wave of spiritual power emanated from the heart.

"The spiritual power contained within should be equivalent to hundreds of thousands of top-grade spirit stones, right?"

A hint of joy flashed in Chu Ming's eyes. He thought if he absorbed all the spiritual power in this heart, his sword dao strength could also reach the emperor rank.

Acting decisively, Chu Ming didn't leave the cave but found a place to raise his sword dao strength to the emperor rank first.

Boom!

As soon as the spiritual heart opened a crack, the spiritual power within surged like an endless ocean, frantically rushing through Chu Ming's meridians. Using the Pure Essence Sword Qi Technique, Chu Ming crazily refined the spiritual power.

His cultivation was increasing at a terrifying speed.

...

Outside, the entire Ice Abyss was in dead silence. Many strong individuals from the Human Race and Demon Race had died or been injured. Out of all the strong ones who entered, only one-fifth remained alive.

The surviving strong individuals continued searching for the Jiuyu Cloud Map but found nothing despite digging up the entire place.

...

Three hours later, the spiritual power in the heart had been fully absorbed by Chu Ming. Now, his aura was restrained, and a faint sword light mark had appeared between his brows, a sign of reaching the pinnacle of sword dao.
