The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 320: Demonic Dao Shaken

Chapter 320: Chapter 320: Demonic Dao Shaken

It took quite some time before Qin Jun’s consciousness cleared from the ancestral memories of the ancient Savage Elephant, and without opening his eyes, he felt a burning heat all over his body, as if he were on fire. However, it wasn’t uncomfortable; on the contrary, he was exhilarated, almost wishing he could indulge in a free-spirited battle.

When he regained control of his body, he noticed some jostling. Instinctively opening his eyes, he found himself seated on the back of the Savage Elephant King, surrounded by the vast army of the Cat People. As for the beast tide, it had long since vanished without a trace.

"Your Majesty, how do you feel?"

Yuan Hong, walking beside the Savage Elephant King on the right, looked up with concern and asked, with Lei Zhenzi, Wang Xue, and Wang Yan also turning their gazes towards him.

Qin Jun rotated his neck and said with a smile, "I feel great!"

More than just great!

He felt as if his strength had nearly doubled, and this sensation of overflowing power was thrilling.

"That’s to be expected. After all, the ancient Savage Elephant is no trivial matter; its ancestor once coiled its trunk around the sun and the moon and swallowed the energy of mountains and rivers with its breath!"

Old Man Yi, on the left side of the Savage Elephant King, snorted and gave Qin Jun a disdainful look, as if to say you’ve hit the jackpot.

Qin Jun chuckled. He could feel an indescribable connection with the Savage Elephant King beneath him: with a single thought, he could make the beast suffer unbearable pain. This sensation was strange, yet very real!

Such was the power of a bloodline contract!

Even though the Savage Elephant King was stronger than Qin Jun, once the bloodline contract was established, the roles were reversed instantly. Of course, Qin Jun would not have been able to forge this contract with the Savage Elephant King without Old Man Yi’s forceful suppression.

As Qin Jun reveled in the surge of strength within his body, the outline of a mountain range appeared at the end of the plains.

The Langya Mountain Range effectively surrounded the plains with forests, and leaving the plains meant they were already on their way out of the central area.

However, reaching Xuanfeng Tribe would take at least three days, given that most of the Cat People couldn’t fly.

...

The news of the Black Destructor Sect’s attack on Qin Jun and the Cat People Clan spread like a whirlwind, along with the news of the Savage Elephant King’s capture.

In no time, even the nine Demonic Dao Sovereigns were shaken. Ordinary forces might not understand what the Savage Elephant King represented, but the Demonic Dao Sovereigns were well aware.

While various forces ridiculed the Black Destructor Sect for being cowardly, the nine Demonic Dao Sovereigns grew anxious.

To the Demonic Dao, the level Heavenly Demon Sovereign was a nightmarish figure, deemed even more dreadful than the Sacred Emperor. After all, though the nine Demonic Dao Sovereigns were under the control of the Sacred Emperor, who provided them with protection, the level Heavenly Demon Sovereign might not do the same. He would bite anyone who provoked him, with no reservations!

...

Abyss Sect.

In the main hall, Nangong Lietian sat in the lead, looking down at the elders and stewards, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think about the matter concerning the Langya Mountain Range?"

"Do we even need to talk about it? It must be Qin Emperor’s group, and the ugly stick-wielding man who killed Qi Tianxin is definitely Lei Zhenzi!"

One elder murmured, causing others to nod along. Dealing with Qin Jun was becoming increasingly frustrating for them.

This guy had too many strong subordinates, and one of them was even Nangong Lietian’s own ancestor master; what could they do?

"Hmph, this sovereign is well aware of that," Nangong Lietian snorted. While he appeared subservient in front of Old Man Yi, his usual demeanor was imposing, making others fearful of meeting his gaze.

The Savage Elephant King!

Everyone fell silent at once, and the atmosphere in the hall turned eerie, leaving them feeling suffocated.

It was not the Savage Elephant King they feared, but the level Heavenly Demon Sovereign behind it.

"It seems turmoils are brewing in the Demonic Dao. We had better halt all actions against the Righteous Dao and the Imperial Dynasties for now," an elderly elder suggested, prompting nods from the others.

Nangong Lietian pondered, then nodded and said, "Cease all immediate plans against the Righteous Dao, and await further orders from the Hao Ri Alliance."

"Yes!"

The elders and stewards replied in unison.

...

While the outer world was abuzz over the Savage Elephant King, another three days flashed by swiftly.

Deep in the woods, the colossal body of the Savage Elephant King toppled tree after tree, followed by tens of thousands of Cat People. Before long, they would reach Xuanfeng Tribe.

"Father, Xuanfeng Tribe is said to be a band of Human Clan thieves. Will they let us use the portal?" Wang Xue asked Wang Yan with a tinge of unease.

Wang Yan shook his head, smiling, "We don’t need to worry about that. One of the lord’s subordinates will take care of it."

Qin Jun, seated atop the Savage Elephant King, couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth. Easy for you to say!

For now, he didn’t need Wang Yan’s assistance. Once back in the Great Qin Kingdom or the ownerless territories, he planned to train the Cat People Clan into a formidable Cat People army.

The Cat People were incredibly fast and mighty in combat. Among their peers, monks who battled with them had a higher chance of dying. If he could train a special force, they would be invincible in battle!

Qin Jun was full of anticipation, and so was Wang Yan, who wished for the Cat People Clan to display their ancient ferocity once more.

Suddenly, they emerged from the woods to face a cliff; nearly a hundred meters across, it was bridged by an iron chain. Looking forward, they could see a fortified village on the opposite mountain, with wooden towers aplenty and numerous monks on the lookout.

Qin Jun stopped and did not advance further. He trusted that Shen Gongbao had sensed his arrival.

Sure enough, in under the time of three breaths, Shen Gongbao and a middle-aged man clad in a marten fur robe flew over.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Shen Gongbao landed in front of Qin Jun, saluting with a smile, while the man in the marten fur robe seemed slightly nervous, eyeing the Savage Elephant King.

Xuanfeng Tribe had been stationed in the Langya Mountain Range for hundreds of years, and he had seen the Savage Elephant King many times. Although he could defeat the Savage Elephant King, he hadn’t dared to offend it ever since the level Heavenly Demon Sovereign’s visit ten years ago.

"Hmm, you must be the Master of Xuanfeng Tribe, right?"

Qin Jun nodded and then asked with a smile, prompting the man in the marten fur to quickly respond, "I am Mo Xuanfeng, the Master of Xuanfeng Tribe, and I’ve seen Your Majesty."

Wang Yan couldn’t help but ask Wang Xue, "Which country’s emperor is Young Master Qin, exactly?"

He often heard Lei Zhenzi and Yuan Hong addressing Qin Jun as ’Your Majesty’, but he was still unclear about Qin Jun’s real identity. Since Qin Jun didn’t say, it wasn’t right for him to inquire—knowing that Qin Jun was a descendant of Ji Yongsheng was enough.

"I’m not sure. He claims to be the Qin Emperor, but I don’t believe it," Wang Xue shrugged.

The Qin Emperor?

Wang Yan had heard of this name too; it belonged to the most legendary figure among the young generation of the Righteous Dao, even the Abyss Sect had suffered setbacks at his hands.

Although Qin Jun’s subordinates were also very powerful, Wang Yan thought there was still a gap between him and the Qin Emperor. It had to do with status. The gap between the Cat People Clan and the Demonic Dao Sovereigns was vast, let alone with the Qin Emperor. Thus, in his view, he couldn’t possibly have dealings with such a legendary figure as the Qin Emperor.

"Master Mo, do you think your portal can transport all of us?"

Qin Jun gestured towards the Cat People behind him and asked with a smile, causing Mo Xuanfeng to spread his Divine Consciousness. Upon sensing, he began to tremble.

Damn!

Tens of thousands of Cat People...

Mo Xuanfeng’s expression turned somewhat grim. If it were just a few people, it would be manageable, but transporting tens of thousands would consume how many spirit stones?
