Chapter 97: Chapter 80 Consuming the Fire Lotus, Achieving Qi Cultivation Perfection, The Demon Chart World_3

Translator: 549690339

Using True Fire requires the consumption of True Qi, and it’s not without its costs.

“Thump, thump!”

After the True Fire was consolidated, all of a sudden, Han Ye’s heart started to violently throb. Combined with a palpitation, the strange feeling baffled him.

He ripped open his collar to see a pulsating black light in his chest. His heart was beating faster and faster as the black light kept moving downwards.

It directly immersed itself into Han Ye’s boundless Sea of Qi.

“Roar!”

Suddenly, a dragon’s roar vibrated in Han Ye’s mind, and his vision swirled. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a different place.

A desolate wasteland, shrouded in shadow, was beneath his feet, and a ceaseless river flowed by.

“Where is this?”

Very curious, Han Ye was quite at a loss about everything in front of him.

“Roar!”

Suddenly, a thunderous roar echoed. The entire river trembled.

Splash!

A gargantuan, grinning, pitch-black head emerged from the river. Its figure was like a towering mountain, with snake-like eyes radiating red light — vertical pupils. The two long whiskers were continuously trembling, coupled with a body covered in black scales.

Seeing such an immense creature, Han Ye was completely taken aback.

This is… a dragon!

In front of it, he was only the size of a few scales like an insect under the high and mighty head of the dragon.

Demon Dragons are a type of Demon Beast, and the oppressive force coming from it was extremely terrifying!

“Roar!”

Han Ye covered his ears to resist the dragon’s might, but he understood what this Demon Dragon was saying.

“Humans are just humans — all as timid as mice, a group devoid of courage and wisdom.”

Han Ye knitted his brows; he was quite unhappy about these arrogant words.

“Hand me your True Fire obediently.”

“Why should I? What do I get in return?”

Han Ye questioned.

The red vertical pupils of the dragon exhibited a sense of disdain: “A petty human who can use Qi Cultivation, dare you discuss terms with me?”

Its low, resonant voice echoed throughout the world.

The Demon Dragon clearly looked down on Han Ye, thinking nothing of him.

After careful consideration, Han Ye concluded that this Demon Dragon was trapped within the Heavenly Demon Map. If it wanted to kill him, it would have already done so, why would it wait till now?

If it hasn’t, it probably means that he is currently its host, and they coexist.

If he dies, it can only continue to sleep and wait for the next host for thousands — no, tens of thousands of years.

With this in mind, Han Ye gained a bit of confidence: “Though my cultivation isn’t as advanced as yours, and I don’t have your size, but I also understand the principle of quid pro quo. You want something for nothing, why would I agree?”

The Demon Dragon snorted coldly: “Don’t think that just because you’ve merged with the Heavenly Demon Nether Dragon Scroll, you can be fearless. Without me, you cannot hope to obtain any secrets or inheritances from the Heavenly Demon Nether Dragon Scroll.”

Han Ye was unimpressed: “So what if I can’t have it? I don’t care about that. Without the Heavenly Demon Nether Dragon Scroll, does that mean I can’t become immortal?”

“Ha-ha-ha!!”

The dragon’s roaring laughter rattled the heavens and the earth, as if it had heard something amusing.

“You speak big words! What makes you think that you could ascend to immortality? As soon as you die, I will just find another host. You, a mere Qi Cultivator with a lifespan of at most a hundred years. You blink, and you are dead.”

The arrogant red vertical pupils of the Demon Dragon held an implication, seemingly emphasizing Han Ye’s weakness.

Han Ye finally understood.

What it meant by those words was, he thought of him as a mere ant which would be dead in a snap.

So why not offer up the True Fire immediately to please his lord?

“Damn it! I put up with enough in the Cultivation World, now I have to put up with you here too! Who cares about the inheritance of the Demon Lord Tongtian.”

Han Ye cursed, not caring for its existence at all.

Go where you please.

He turned his head, ready to leave this Spirit World.

The Demon Dragon saw Han Ye’s indifference, and his nonchalant attitude surprised it. Subsequently, it snorted angrily:

“Kid, don’t regret it!”

“Don’t worry, I never do.”
