Chapter 1428 The Blood Oath of the Eight Clans (Part 8)

It is impossible for Demon Lord Qin Fan to just wait in the Demon Palace for three hours.

Given his personality, he just can't settle down.

Then his figure flashed, and he began to travel throughout the entire Western Demon Realm at an extremely fast speed.

Yun Hongce looked at the dome that had long been blown away, and then his gaze calmly rested on the other demon kings.

This depressing silence lasted for more than ten minutes before someone spoke first.

"If we let them become the new king, they will first face the impact of the will of the entire tribe. If they fail, they will die."

No one present thought that it was the always reckless Ashura King who broke the situation.

He looked towards Yun Hongce, and the violent emotions in his eyes that used to appear only flashed a little, replaced by a light of wisdom that shouldn't have existed in him.

"This is their choice." Yun Hongce's tone was also a bit heavy.

This was also the first disagreement he had with the other party after Demon Lord Qin Fan was separated out.

In his opinion, killing one of the seven kings to serve as a warning to others is already a great deterrent. After that, the remaining kings will cooperate with his arrangement to sign a blood oath. When the oath is reached, it will be a direct mark of loyalty on them.

Qin Fan can decide the survival of an ethnic group with just a thought.

If that's the case, why bother letting the three kings take such a desperate gamble?

The answer that Demon Lord Qin Fan used to convince Yun Hongce was very simple.

He only spoke three words.

"I like."

Do you like killing? Do you like watching the three kings die one after another to make the other demon kings uneasy? Or do you like watching the three kings take this opportunity to fight because of their greed for power and strength?

The silent sneer after Yu finished speaking showed how evil this demon lord was.

Originally, Yun Hongce wanted to withstand the pressure and patiently give some advice. After all, what he valued most was the lives of his companions. For this reason, he had more radical means to maintain the existence of the Chiluo Demon Kingdom.

But in the end, they chose a solution that saved people and lost land.

Just when he was about to speak, the Demon Lord extremely domineeringly summoned the three Heavenly Kings to his front, and then directly stated that the next Heavenly Demon Kingdom would be expanded to a dynasty, and the only ones eligible to be crowned kings were the leaders of several major royal families, except for those with outstanding military exploits.

Now an opportunity lies before them.

Allow it to replace one of the kings and take over the entire tribe with the support of the Demonic Kingdom.

The price to be paid afterwards is a gamble.

All choices are left to them to decide.

And the result

There is no doubt that the previous breakthroughs of Qiao Baxian and others have stimulated not only the kings, but also the three kings of the Demonic Kingdom (the other king is Huang Tiangui) who have gradually become background boards. They are aware that their combat power is becoming increasingly disadvantageous.

There are no other outstanding highlights in other aspects.

After all seven royal families are incorporated into the Demonic Kingdom, the throne of the Heavenly King will probably have to be abdicated.

So what will be their positioning afterwards?

A general with a certain amount of military power? Or a nostalgic old man who occupies a mid- to high-level position and can only enjoy his retirement?

This kind of ending is undoubtedly the most intolerable outcome for the demons who are eager for battle and power and do not hide their selfish side.

The winner of a gamble can receive a large inheritance, take a crucial step forward in strength, and obtain a highly powerful position in the future Demon Dynasty.

With so much to gain, why not give it a try.

Moreover, as the three heavenly kings who were born from ordinary demons, they already have a high degree of self-confidence.

If they were of royal origin, it is possible that they could directly compete for the position of clan leader.

And it’s not too late now.

This was a selection that was extremely in line with the style of the demons, a gamble where one would die if they couldn't win. And because of this radical style, Yun Hongce, who was the least like a demon, felt a lot of discomfort.

Now, facing the questions from King Ashura, his mood naturally became heavier.

But then he heard loud and heroic laughter.

It is the Asura King.

He slapped the table, unable to suppress the excitement on his face.

When the laughter stopped, he said loudly.

"happy!"

Where's the pleasure?

This way of gambling one's life to gain more benefits, and the style of doing things where one would die if one could not win, undoubtedly irritated this reckless man.

The kings present also knew one thing, that after being invited by Demon Lord Qin Fan in his important capacity, the first decision he made was equivalent to showing the other kings the mainstream direction of their Demon Dynasty in the future.

Those who disobey orders will be killed!

Those who obey orders live!

If you want more benefits and enjoy more power, just gamble!

If you lose the bet, you die!

This is the rule of the Demon Lord, overbearing, barbaric, and filled with a straightforward violent beauty!

Obviously, King Ashura felt that this was just perfect for him.

"I can sign the blood oath on behalf of the Ashura clan right now."

There was even a hint of impatience in his voice.

This was not out of deliberate flattery to the Demon Lord who was no longer in the Heavenly Demon Palace. He accepted this change from the bottom of his heart. Even the flickering fire in his eyes made him look a bit like a fanatic of the Worry-Free Religion.

He looked like he couldn't wait to follow the Demon Lord and create a big mess for God!

"You wait a moment until what's happening outside is over. The king also wants to make some attempts based on the blood oath of the eight clans." Yun Hongce had to comfort King Asura, who had been quiet in the first half but was getting excited again.

"Eight clans?"

As he was puzzled, the door suddenly opened.

Huang Tiangui walked into the hall without saying a word, and then randomly chose an empty seat, but the aura of the Sky Demon Clan was not concealed at all on his body.

"Did you break through again?"

King Ashura, who had been reduced to a punching bag in the past few days, clearly sensed the changes in his aura. Perhaps because he had just broken through, his aura still revealed a strong sense of oppression.

Perhaps only Long Ming can compete with him.

After Huang Tiangui nodded to him, he began to deeply comprehend the Golden Body of the Heavenly Demon, which was formed by the fusion of the World-Destroying Demon Body and the Immortal Demon Body.

Before, he could practice the demon skills perfectly with his human body. This was a special physique of his. After he officially became a demon, the bonus of this physique became more and more obvious.

Originally, one could only achieve the same training effect by ignoring racial identity.

Now it has directly contributed to the powerful combat effectiveness of his magic skills. He can vaguely feel that even if he as a human breaks through to the middle stage of Tianyan Realm, his original self as a demon can still defeat the three original human selves.

Being half human and half demon is the biggest limitation of his characteristics. He was supposed to be a demon and is a natural demon king.

Then he glanced coldly at everyone and began to continue to experience the changes in himself.

As for Huang Tiangui's progress, King Ashura could only say "tsk" in a low voice.

Then he looked outside the hall frequently, waiting for the result of the three heavenly kings.

The Heavenly Demon Fruit he absorbed inherited all the memories of the original three kings, which naturally included the part about the blood oath hidden in the deepest part of his mind. These three hours were mostly reserved time for him to use the blood oath to truly gain recognition from the tribe.

If they fail during the process, it will be just like what the Demon Lord said before he left: If you can't do it, you will die outside.

This is totally in line with the demon clan's style of the survival of the fittest.

"What's going on?" Long Ming whispered to Yun Hongce.

"You should have noticed that the king is already a true demon."

Not only Long Ming noticed this, but the other kings did too. This is one of the reasons why King Asura increasingly agrees with the ideas demonstrated by the current Demon Lord.

"He is a special clone formed by the real king cutting off the Heavenly Demon Divine Art and then using his own inner demon as the dominant consciousness. You should be able to see the pros and cons. This will be the situation in the future."

Long Ming rubbed his temple.

He didn't know how to answer, and this decision was not something he could interfere with. Apart from accepting the current situation, he seemed unable to do anything, which was similar to Yun Hongce's situation.

Rather than identifying with this Demon Lord who is more in line with the style of the Demon Realm, they rely more on Qin Fan himself.

but

After observing for a while, he found the Rakshasa King, who was the most cunning but behaved the most honestly at this moment, and the Asura King, who had an uncontrollable expression of joy, and then the Garuda King, whose eyes were also filled with tyranny and identification.

He found that his own ideas were perhaps more in line with the human race because of his fateful body. In addition, due to the characteristics of the Yaksha tribe, the rules he was used to respect did not conform to the mainstream ideas of the demon tribe.

On the contrary, this demon lord is more like a demon than himself.

From another perspective, that is, looking at it from the perspective of the entire demon clan, such a demon lord is the supreme overlord that all demons are willing to follow.

Then three hours passed quietly.

The breakthrough of the three demons outside the palace ended two hours ago.

During the rest of the time, he decisively activated part of the power of the blood oath to first gain the blood recognition of the entire ethnic group, which was also a ceremony to become king.

The royal families scattered throughout the Demon Realm still didn't know what had happened, but the forced activation of the ceremony still allowed them to guess some of the results, and the resistance against the three Heavenly Kings was naturally not small.

But this is a battle of wills.

If the three demons who have broken through the Tianyan realm were allowed to fight directly within the clan, they would definitely die.

But when it comes to this battle of wills, especially the drastic changes in the Mountain and Sea Realm a few days ago, which have dealt a heavy psychological blow to these proud royal families, and Mo Shenying, Dang Qianmie and Man Yanqing are determined to die if they fail.

There is naturally a huge gap between the two sides in terms of beliefs.

Moreover, the fact that the bloodline ceremony could be initiated showed that the contender for the throne was from the same clan as them. Naturally, there would be no barriers between them for most of the clan members.

Wait until more than an hour of invisible confrontation is over.

Although they looked a little tired, the three demons who had already achieved the status of Dragon King, Gandharva King and Kinnara King also returned to the hall.

And in the next second, the figure of Demon Lord Qin Fan appeared.

"Anyone object?"

He looked quietly at the eight kings present. No one dared to oppose him. Instead, the clever little King Rakshasa took the lead in expressing his loyalty to Qin Fan.

"Then let's go."

A powerful force swept over the Eight Demons and Yun Hongce, and they appeared in front of a pool of blood.

The demonic energy here is extremely dense. You should know that when Chonglou broke through the third level of immortality before, he almost sucked the entire Demon Realm dry. If it weren't for his fight with Yuchi Kuangge, some of the demonic blood he spilled would have been integrated into the Demon Realm again.

Given the environment in the Demon Realm, it is probably not even able to support the breakthroughs of several Tianyan realm masters.

So the concentration of demonic energy in this place is a bit weird.

After a few hours.

The blood pool was boiling. Eight bronze pillars engraved with ancient magic patterns surrounded the altar. The royal seals of various tribes were suspended on the top of the pillars: the Nine Nether Halberd of Yaksha, the Thousand Poison Spider Eggs of Rakshasa, and the Thunder Feather Crown of Garuda. Qin Fan stood on the stone platform in the middle of the pool, his black robe moving without wind.

The eight kings stood in eight directions, their backs straight as fully drawn bowstrings.

"start."

The moment Qin Fan opened his mouth, Long Ming bit his fingertips first, and the dark blue blood condensed into a talisman and shot towards the bronze pillar!

The throats of the other seven kings rolled. At the moment the blood curse entered the pillar, the tiles on the altar cracked with a spider-web-like red light. Eight chains rose from the bottom of the pool, and the tips pierced into the back of the kings' necks!

"The blood contract has been made, the Demon Lord must be established!"

King Asura roared, veins on his neck bulged, and the chains suddenly tightened. The Eighth King was forced to kneel on one knee, and his kneebone crushed the obsidian bricks!

The stone platform under Qin Fan's feet began to rotate, and eight strands of blood essence of different colors flowed into his body along the chains. The black robe was torn into pieces by the energy flow, revealing the bulging magic patterns under the pale skin!

At this moment, King Garuda's thunder wings spread out uncontrollably, and the lightning turned into a thin snake that wrapped around Qin Fan's right arm!

The poisonous spider eggs of the Rakshasa King exploded in his palm, and the poisonous mist was sucked into the pupil of his left eye before it could spread!

The most tragic one was King Ashura, whose battle mark peeled off from his chest and flowed towards Qin Fan's spine like red magma. With every inch it flowed, King Ashura's mask would have an additional crack!

"Hold on." Qin Fan looked down at Huang Tiangui, who was struggling subconsciously and had not yet become the Demon King. The latter was being attacked by the demonic trait, the Ice Soul Core, in his body, and frost marks covered his cheeks!

"If you can't even withstand the resonance of blood, how can you talk about loyalty?" He flicked his fingers, and the ice core on Huang Tiangui's forehead suddenly turned, and the extremely cold evil spirit rolled back to Qin Fan's fingertips, condensing into an ice crystal and embedding into the collarbone!

The altar began to tremble, and eight bronze pillars burst into dazzling light!

The shadow of the Yaksha King's Nine Nether Halberd stabbed towards Qin Fan's heart, but it shattered and reorganized when it touched his skin, turning into a hideous halberd pattern on his back!

Garuda's Thunder Wings separated from the main body, and the shadow stretched out behind Qin Fan, with purple arcs of electricity leaping on every feather!

The eight kings groaned one after another, and their sacred objects were being reconstructed in Qin Fan's body - not plunder, but submission!

When the last trace of blood essence flowed in, Qin Fan stepped out of the blood pool.

When his toes touched the ground, the Yaksha King's Nine Nether Halberd automatically flew into his palm!

The Shura battle pattern flickered on his chest, and when he raised his hand he caused the earth and sky to burn!

Garuda's thunder wings fluttered lightly, and what descended from the dark clouds was no longer thunder, but liquid lightning!

The Eighth King was still kneeling in the same place, the chains around his neck had not been removed, but their color had turned from blood red to pitch black - that was Qin Fan's evil spirit taking root in their bodies!

"There is only one step left." Qin Fan's voice echoed in chaos!

Deep in the blood pool, a terrifying creature seems to be awakening! (End of this chapter)
