Chapter 819: Chapter 753: Roasted Dragon

He descended from the Heavenly Dome, arriving in a single step before the fallen Dark Abyss Demon Dragon’s body, gazing down from above at the mountainous dragon form.

Meanwhile, throughout the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain, there were countless strong Demon Race members closely monitoring this place, all eagerly eyeing the demon body of the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon.

After all, this was the corpse of a Demon Race Saint Master, and moreover, contained dragon blood within its demon body, which was an invaluable Divine Item for the Demon Race.

Once acquired, it would have incredible and wondrous uses.

On a usual day, surely everyone would rise to seize it, but today all had greedy intentions in their hearts but few dared to act on them.

Due to none other than Ye Chen!

A young supreme of the Human Clan capable of crossing such an unprecedented ancient and great tribulation, battling the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon, and advancing to the peak of the Ancient Saint at the Fourth Layer Heaven; who would dare provoke him?

Everyone could see that this young supreme of the Human Clan clearly possessed unparalleled strength to slay a Saint Master, with the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon as the best example right before their eyes.

No one dared to risk certain death offending such an invincible young supreme of the Human Clan unless they could invite the supreme being from the deepest part of the Demon Domain.

But such beings were always aloof and detached, ignoring worldly affairs, having not emerged for countless years, no one knew if they still existed or had perished.

The Gray Dragon also descended from the Heavenly Dome, looking with fiery eyes at the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon.

They were both exotic beasts of the Dragon Clan in the Demon Race, possessing far purer bloodlines than the Demon Flood Dragon, and they had a special Dragon Transformation Technique, allowing them to gradually evolve, shedding into a True Dragon.

Just as the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon wanted to devour the Gray Dragon, similarly, the Gray Dragon wanted to devour the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon, both coveting each other’s dragon blood to aid them in advancing further along the Dragon Transformation path.

If afforded the opportunity and granted time, they might even evolve into True Dragons, becoming the supreme lifeforms ruling over all spirits.

However, Ye Chen evidently could not entirely give the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon to the Gray Dragon at present, instead directly refining it down to a smaller size, yet even so, it was still a hundred zhang long, coiled into a small mountain.

With his forefinger and middle finger together, a Sword Radiance pierced the heavens, directly slicing off a huge dragon claw, throwing it to the Gray Dragon, and said indifferently, "A reward for you, for not betraying at the critical moment. If you perform well in the future, there will be no shortage of rewards for you."

The Gray Dragon was overjoyed, initially thinking Ye Chen might not reward it at all, never expecting him to actually reward a dragon claw, naturally, it was elated.

Now hearing there could be even richer rewards, how could it not be happy, quickly nodding in agreement.

Ye Chen nodded slightly, slicing off another dragon claw, the rest stored within his internal space.

With his cultivation level, the internal space he had developed was vast enough that it was nothing even to include a Divine Mountain within.

Moreover, he hadn’t just opened a Dantian space, but also had other spaces.

Soon after, Ye Chen birthed a ball of Glazed Divine Fire, using Blood Qi to form a massive Golden Halberd, piercing through the dragon claw, placing it on the Dao Fire, surprisingly to—

Grill it!

That’s right, he was grilling it.

All the Demon Domain powerhouses watching this were stupefied one after another, watching in astonishment at everything before them.

The illustrious overlord of an era, the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon, once ruling a region of the Demon Domain, unexpectedly ended up in such a miserable fate of being grilled after death, a truly tragic end.

At the same time, it caused the Demon Domain powerhouses to tremble in fear, if they truly offended this mysterious young supreme of the Human Clan, the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon’s fate would be theirs.

Ye Chen grilled boldly, using the Dark Abyss Demon Dragon’s dragon claw to grill, the Glazed Divine Fire as the flame to roast, and nonchalantly taking out precious spiritual essences from his internal space, with many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, including rare treasures over a thousand years old.

Like the Millennium Vermilion Fruit, Purple Mist Divine Grass, Snow Transformation Flower, thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum and other precious spiritual essences, directly refined into pure spirit liquid flowing as precious condiments, adorning the dragon claw.

Instantly, enticing fragrance burst forth, making the nearby Gray Dragon swallow its saliva despite being dumbfounded.

And judging by its master’s proficiency, it seemed it wasn’t the first time doing this.

How could it know that the invincible master before it, in a past life when young, was merely an orphan depending on Ruoxi for survival, self-reliant from a young age, often hunting beasts in the forest for sustenance.

Partly to fill the stomach, and partly because the young and innocent Ruoxi often complained about the unappetizing beast meat. Always doting dearly on his little sister, Ye Chen started learning barbecue techniques, eventually achieving a grandmaster level, grilling top-tier roasted meats.

Remembering past events, there was a bit of nostalgia, who could have foreseen that the once lonely and destitute young boy would grow to become a young supreme admired by countless heavenly prides across the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, the strongest contender for the path of the Human Emperor.

Then, he thought again of his parents in this life, Ye Ao, Xia Wei, and other members of the Ye Family clan like Ye Zimei, who disappeared on the King’s Ancient Road, taken by the mysterious Ye Family to the mysterious Nine Layers Emperor Pass.

He repeatedly encountered Ye Gucheng, but never had the chance to inquire about the connection between the Ye Family behind the Nine Layers Emperor Pass and the Emperor and Royal Families in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.

If he gets another chance to meet, he must inquire, and if possible, he needs to visit the Nine Layers Emperor Pass once, not for anything else, but for his parents and clan.

Half a day later, Ye Chen thoroughly purified and expelled the demonic qi from the dragon claw, leaving only the essence of dragon meat, its golden-hued flesh glistening with juices, looking incredibly enticing.

Eating in large mouthfuls, each piece of flesh was incredibly rich and delicious, leaving one wanting more.

As he swallowed, it transformed into layers of pure energy, flowing through his limbs and bones, filling his veins.

Seeing the Gray Dragon staring wide-eyed and drooling fiercely, he did not scold it but smiled slightly, slicing off a large portion of golden roasted dragon meat and tossing it over.

The Gray Dragon hastily opened its huge maw, biting it in one gulp; although relatively scarce compared to its big sins, it was clearly aware of the world’s finest delicacies, relishing it.

After finishing, it wanted more.

Ye Chen again shared several more pieces of golden dragon meat with the Gray Dragon, but there was no more left, as the remaining had already been devoured by him, transforming into pure Dao Divine Ability, making his entire body warm and filled with surging power.

"Master, this is the Memory Jade left for you by the Dragon Emperor."

The Gray Dragon handed over the Memory Jade left by the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor.
