Eternal Sacred King - Chapter 3025
Chapter 3025: Fiend Lord!
Translator: Legge
The person moved the Hell Suppression Tripod away slowly and threw it casually by his feet, revealing his true appearance!
The person had a hunched back and looked withered. His two white brows hung on his shoulders, as though he was on the verge of death. He looked at the Martial Dao Prime Body calmly.
The tomb keeper!
Back then, the Martial Dao Prime Body met the tomb keeper for the first time on Grand Tie Wei Mountain.
After that, he, Yun Zhu and Mo Qing came out of Avici and were surrounded by the Eight Heavenly Kings of the Buddhist monasteries. The ones who saved them were the tomb keeper.
However, when the Martial Dao Prime Body explored the depths of the Greater Avici, the person who pushed him down the dry well in the ancient city was also the tomb keeper!
It could be said that everything he experienced in the Hell World was caused by
the tomb keeper!
He had some guesses about the identity of the tomb keeper.
However, he did not expect the tomb keeper to appear at that moment and save Emperor Azure Flame and the other two!
After entering the Emperor realm, there were not many experts who could threaten the Martial Dao Prime Body.
The tomb keeper was one of them.
The methods displayed by the tomb keeper earlier on meant that he might be even more terrifying than the Martial Dao Prime Body had imagined!
Due to the sudden appearance of the tomb keeper, the Martial Dao Prime Body did not continue chasing.
He did not know why the tomb keeper was here and could only focus all his attention on the tomb keeper and be on guard.
The remaining Emperors of the Blessed Heaven World and the Heavenly Court were able to escape and quickly disappeared at the end of the starry skies.
Of course, be it the Blessed Heaven World or the Heavenly Court, they suffered heavy losses in this battle and returned in defeat!
More than half of the dozens of Emperor experts of the Blessed Heaven World
died.
Nearly half of the Heavenly Court’s 28 Mansions were destroyed as well, in fact, Empress Yan Luo, who possessed the bloodline of a Sacred Beast, was dead as well!
The surrounding sky gradually darkened.
A world enveloped them silently and isolated the three of them from the outside world.
A few tombs appeared behind the tomb keeper.
Among them was a tomb with a wordless headstone.
The tomb keeper emitted an extremely dangerous aura.
However, the Martial Dao Prime Body could not sense the tomb keeper’s hostility towards him so he did not attack rashly.
“Should I call you the tomb keeper or… Great Emperor Heaven Burial?!
The Martial Dao Prime Body’s eyes were deep as he stared fixedly at the tomb keeper’s face and asked slowly, revealing those shocking words!
Die Yue was stunned when she heard that.
The Martial Dao Prime Body had mentioned the tomb keeper to her.
However, she had never thought that the tomb keeper would be related to Great Emperor Heaven Burial.
When the tomb keeper heard that, he had a calm expression and did not explain anything, as though he was in silent acknowledgment.
The Martial Dao Prime Body said, “Fiend Emperor Apocalypse, Emperor Bo Xun and Immortal Emperor Dawn Twilight were all from the Heavenly World in the past. In this generation, they revived with the help of the tombs of Great Emperors.”
“This means that the three Emperors all know the Heaven Burial Sutra.” “As for you, you happen to be guarding a tomb in the Heavenly World!” The Martial Dao Prime Body had many speculations about whose tomb the tomb keeper was guarding.
It was only when he understood the meaning of Heaven Burial that he realized that the tomb keeper might be guarding his own tomb!
As for Great Emperor Heaven Burial’s tomb, it was in the Fiend Domain of the Heavenly World!
“Anything else?”
The tomb keeper asked calmly.
The Martial Dao Prime Body continued, “In Tianhuang Mainland where I’m from, there was once an extraordinary figure called Blood Fiend. He cultivated a clone technique called the Three Corpses Technique.”
“That Three Corpses Technique was imparted to him by the Weapon Spirit of
this Mara Mask on my face.”
“The reason why the Weapon Spirit knows the Three Corpses Technique is because his master was once Emperor Bo Xun.”
“Emperor Bo Xun cultivated the three clones of the Buddha Body, Six Desires Body and Seven Emotions Body. From a certain perspective, the realms and intents of the three clones completely surpassed the Immortal, Buddha and Demon Bodies of Blood Fiend.”
As the Martial Dao Prime Body spoke, he observed the tomb keeper. However, the tomb keeper’s expression was as calm as an ancient well. The Martial Dao Prime Body said, “However, Emperor Bo Xun was way too notorious. He was once an expert among peak Emperors. That’s why I never expected him to be someone else’s clone.”
“It wasn’t until Fiend Emperor Apocalypse and Immortal Emperor Dawn Twilight revived one after another with the help of the tombs of Great Emperors that I realized that they might be the true Three Corpses!” “Cultivating the Three Corpses to the level of peak Emperors separately and helping them revive using the tombs of Great Emperors as well as the Heaven Burial Sutra. I’m afraid Great Emperor Heaven Burial is the only one with such methods and means.”
After saying that, the Martial Dao Prime Body heaved a sigh of relief.
Those speculations had been circling in his heart for many years and he wanted to obtain a definite answer as well.
Even if his guess was completely correct, he still had some doubts.
For example, who was the Ancient Fiend Bo Xun who existed in the same generation as Buddha in the ancient legends? What was his relationship with the Emperor Bo Xun of this generation?
Also, if all of this was done by Great Emperor Heaven Burial, it meant that he had lived for several eras until this generation!
But how was that possible?
Even though there was a limit to the lifespan of a Great Emperor, could Great Emperor Heaven Burial, the tomb keeper in front of him, live forever?
“You guessed a lot right.”
The tomb keeper finally spoke.
However, the tomb keeper’s next sentence stunned the Martial Dao Prime Body on the spot.
“However, you’re wrong about one thing. I’m not Heaven Burial.
Suddenly, the Martial Dao Prime Body fell silent.
He believed that the tomb keeper would not lie and there was no need for him to lie as well.
Given the tomb keeper’s cultivation, if he was really Great Emperor Heaven Burial, it was fine for him to admit it frankly.
After a long silence, the Martial Dao Prime Body asked slowly, “Who are you? The Martial Dao Prime Body had asked that question once when the two of them first met.
The other party had once answered him with the words ‘tomb keeper . Now that the Martial Dao Prime Body asked that question again, he clearly did not want to hear the same answer.
The tomb keeper seemed to have recalled something and his gaze was dazed. After a long while, he came back to his senses and said indifferently, “I can t remember my real name.”
“However, for many years, some people called me… the Fiend Lord.
The Fiend Lord!
The Martial Dao Prime Body had the Mara Mask covering his face after all and he looked relatively calm. However, his heart was in turmoil!
Even Die Yue, who was standing behind him, suddenly took a deep breath when she heard that sentence.
The legendary Fiend Lord who stirred up a catastrophe that swept through the medium chiliocosm in a few eras and caused a huge calamity was now standing in front of the two of them!
Furthermore, the Martial Dao Prime Body had interacted with him a few times! The white-browed old monk was skinny and hunchbacked with a lifeless aura. How did he possess the bearing of the Fiend Lord?
The Fiend Lord was the Lord of Asura and ruled countless belligerent, brave and ferocious Asuras to go against powerful existences of the Heavenly Court! What kind of fiendish might and spirit was that!
If the tomb keeper had not admitted it personally, the Martial Dao Prime Body and Die Yue would never have thought that the legendary Fiend Lord would be this old monk who looked like he was in his twilight years!
Apart from being shocked, more doubts surged in the heart of the Martial Dao Prime Body.
The Martial Dao Prime Body took a deep breath of air and looked at the old monk before him. He was in no hurry to ask and gradually calmed down.
Since the Fiend Lord chose to appear voluntarily, there should be an answer to the doubts in his heart.
