Chapter 1725: Sealing the Desire Devil King of Sin

Li Luo hadn't seen Lu Qing'er ever since they separated at the Celestial Mirror Pagoda around seven years ago.

Lu Qing'er stood tall and graceful atop the torrent of silverish frosty sword energy. She was even more beautiful than seven years ago. Her skin was as white as snow, giving off a crystal-like sheen, as if she was crafted from the finest white jade. Her form-fitting dress accentuated her slender figure, as though she was a snow lotus swaying in the cold. Some strands of her long, black hair were now icy blue, each giving off a chilly aura. Her slender legs below the hem of her short dress were exposed to the cool air, resembling something sculpted from flawless jade and shining brightly.

However, the pure white stockings that once made Li Luo stop and stare were nowhere to be seen. He shifted his attention to her eyes. Those once-lively and intelligent eyes had turned into ice blocks, completely still and resolute. Complicated feelings arose within Li Luo's heart. The beautiful girl he had met in Southwind Academy was gone.

"Lu Taiyi from Golden Dragon Mountain... Qi Huang actually managed to convince that old turtle to come out!" Zhen Linshuang exclaimed in surprise.

"I had no idea that there was a Supreme Triple Crowned King in Golden Dragon Mountain," Li Luo said.

Zhen Linshuang scoffed. "The only reason he reached the Supreme Triple Crowned King Stage is because he spent a long time accumulating resources. It isn't representative of his ability."

"What does that mean?" Li Luo asked curiously.

Zhen Linshuang glared at him. She wanted to ignore him, but in the end, she inexplicably replied, "Lu Taiyi is an ancient fellow. His talent was never amazing when compared to his peers, but his ability to survive is unmatched. He has outlasted all of the peerless geniuses of his generation. The reason he has managed to live this long is because he has a rare resonance, the Longevity Turtle resonance. The Longevity Turtle is a rarely seen ancient spirit beast and is hard to find nowadays. It has only one ability: a long lifespan that surpasses even the Dragon Race.

"The Longevity Turtle resonance has allowed him to live for so long that he has even witnessed the fall of a Heavenly Emperor. He slowly pushed his foundation to the absolute pinnacle and became a Supreme Triple Crowned King. Lu Taiyi did not reach the peak through attempting the Path of Ascension, but purely accumulated effort over an extremely long period of time. However, this is his limit as his lifespan is finally about to reach its end. He has not revealed himself to the world for a hundred years, but he actually came out in order to hunt down the Desire Devil King of Sin."

Zhen Linshuang's in-depth explanation enlightened Li Luo, who marvelled at the whole situation. It was indeed true that the world was filled with all kinds of miracles. This was the first time that he had heard that someone could temper and polish their foundation to the point that they could reach the Supreme Triple Crowned King Stage without following the Path of Ascension. If Qi Huang had reached the Supreme Triple Crowned King Stage by his quality, it could be said that Lu Taiyi had done it with immense quantity.

Meanwhile, with Lu Taiyi having blocked the Famine Devil King of Sin's attack, Qi Huang formed a fist and struck outwards. The majestic temple shot out in response, completely crushing the Death Devil King of Sin's attack.

The gigantic pale face at the crack on the Realm Wall let out a furious cry. However, as it was attempting to attack from across the wall, it was difficult to exert its full strength. All it could do was watch as the Heavenly Radiance Godly Palace rumbled, moving to suppress the Desire Devil King of Sin shortly after.

The Desire Devil King of Sin could sense that things were not going well, so it let out a shrill howl. Its entire body was set ablaze with flames that grew into a large crimson flame that blanketed the sky. It contained billions of voices making lascivious sounds. A flame lotus gradually took shape, and the manifestation of a kingdom filled with countless entangled naked bodies appeared above. Terrifying source origin undulations surged from the lotus, akin to a bomb on the verge of explosion.

"Qi Huang, if you dare to suppress me, I'll detonate the World of Desire and cause corruption to flood half of the Mythical Spirit Divine Continent, turning it into a land of debauchery!" the Devil King of Sin threatened.

Qi Huang, however, remained calm. He continued to use the temple to suppress the Desire Devil King of Sin, summoning up even larger amounts of light source origin to form a flame to purge the Devil Flames of Desire. At the same time, his right eye blazed with dazzling light, as if a golden sun was trying to free itself from his eyesocket. When the sun emerged, it directly sealed the Desire Devil King of Sin.

Seeing Qi Huang use one of his eyes as an object to capture the Desire Devil King of Sin and refine it caused Li Luo to sigh in awe. As a result, the World of Desire that the Desire Devil King of Sin had created was unable to materialize.

Clearly, Qi Huang had made ample preparations for this ambush. With the Golden Eye Grand Sun having sealed the Desire Devil King of Sin away, it gradually flew back into Qi Huang's eye socket. When the golden light receded, one could see a crimson flame seed hopping around inside the eyeball. It was no easy feat to kill a Supreme Triple Crowned King, much less an Other that possessed tenacious vitality. Thus, all he could do was suppress the creature and slowly refine it.

That said, this was a heaven-defying achievement for the people of the divine continents. With this, the Shadow World's Ten Devil Kings of Sin had become nine. The pressure on the divine continents would be significantly lower during the upcoming battle for the withering glory resonance. All of the experts who witnessed this scene were cheering in excitement.

Meanwhile, behind the Realm Wall, the Death Devil King of Sin's pallid face was giving off a boundlessly gloomy aura as its strange voice sounded out from afar. "Radiant King, don't celebrate too soon. Soon, I'll descend and you'll be suppressed by my Abyss of Death, tormented by the death aura within. At that point, you'll turn into a creature that is neither living nor dead!"

Qi Huang grinned. "I look forward to your arrival."

The Death Devil King of Sin's face gradually faded, turning into a gloomy aura that dissipated. With the Death Devil King of Sin's retreat, the Famine Devil King of Sin also chose to retreat. The Shadow World understood that their plan to deal a heavy blow to the Dragon Race had resulted in great failure.

Qi Huang descended towards Li Luo and Zhen Linshuang, cupping his fist and saying, "This was only possible because of your efforts, Federation Chief Li Luo and Chieftain Zhen. I'd like to thank the two of you on behalf of the Divine Continent Federation. With the Desire Devil King of Sin sealed, the pressure on us during the upcoming decisive battle has lessened."

Li Luo and Zhen Linshuang's Heavenly Dragon forms shrunk, and they returned to human form a few seconds later. That said, Zhen Linshuang was still relatively gigantic, so both Li Luo and Qi Huang had to look up to her. Zhen Linshuang's arms were crossed, causing her mountains to protrude whilst she snorted coldly. She was uninterested in dealing with Qi Huang, and it was clear she was unhappy to have been used as bait this whole time.

Li Luo hesitated for a moment and then asked, "How many Supreme Triple Crowned Kings do the divine continents have?" In a world without Heavenly Emperors, Supreme Triple Crowned Kings were invincible experts with the power to tilt the scales in every major battle.

The smile on Qi Huang's face faded slightly as he sighed helplessly and stretched out a single hand. "Five. Even with all our resources, we only have five Supreme Triple Crowned Kings."
