BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1337 - Tremble
Along with his gaze, the massive Demon Slayer Plaque started to tremble...
Everyone practically noticed that tremble, so all of them directed their gazes over. This was the first time that they saw such a commotion coming from the Demon Slayer Plaque.
“What’s going on?” When puzzled voice resounded, a dazzling golden lustre suddenly appeared on the Demon Slayer Plaque. The top of the plaque looked like a blazing golden sun.
Golden light enveloped the entire city. The Demon Slayers in the city could sense a faint pressure.
The golden lustre lasted for ten-odd minutes before it gradually died down. As the golden radiance died down, everyone immediately directed their attention over, and the whole city was taken by silence.
The jade bottle fell from the hands of the grey-robed elder as he froze, looking at the Demon Slayer Plaque with shock.
Things fell from the hands of many Demon Slayers in the recruitment corner as well with all of their faces froze.
“What... what the fuck is this?!” Someone muttered out.
Under the silence, the golden lustre on the Demon Slayer Plaque retracted and another row of golden words appeared beneath the Demon Slayer King, Qing Tian...
Demon Slayer King - Mu Chen!
Everyone finally recovered from the shock and a commotion broke out. All of them were dumbfounded at the newly emerged Demon Slayer King.
Since most of the people in Sacred Abyss City were Demon Slayers of the Great Thousand Palace, they knew the meaning of the Demon Slayer King...
That’s practically everyone’s objective. As long as they could become a Demon Slayer King, they would be amongst the higher hierarchy of the Great Thousand Palace with an extraordinary position and even other forces would have to be courteous and respectful of them.
One could say that a Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace was equivalent to the leaders of some supreme forces!
All the Demon Slayers were striving for that objective, but unless it’s war, gathering 10,000 Demon Slayer Points was practically out of their reach. Although one could immediately rise upon killing a Sky Monarch, it was a path that no one had thought of taking...
Sky Monarchs were existences that could be comparable to Saint Heavenly Sovereigns. Whether in the Fiend Clans or the Great Thousand World, those existences stood at the top of the pyramid.
No one dared to put their minds onto a Sky Monarch. That also proved how impossible it was to obtain the Demon Slayer King title. But there’s suddenly an unfamiliar name that obtained the title of a Demon Slayer King, which made these Demon Slayers feel unbelievable.
“Who is this Mu Chen? Why haven’t I heard of him before?”
“I don’t seem to recognise this name amongst the High Rank Demon Slayers, either!”
“There isn’t? Could he have been promoted from the Middle Rank?”
“What nonsense are you speaking? How can he rise so quickly, unless he killed a few Monarchs?”
“......” All sorts of commotions rang out in Sacred Abyss City.
The grey-robed elder by the counter recovered from his shock and stared at the name with a light flickering in his eyes. “Mu Chen? Could it be that brat brought by the drunkard?”
“But...he had just obtained his Demon Slayer Token. He’s just a Low Rank Demon Slayer...can it be...?” The grey-robed elder suddenly thought of something and his face changed. There’s only one method to rise from a Low Rank Demon Slayer to the Demon Slayer King, killing a Sky Monarch and obtaining a strand of it’s soul.
But Mu Chen’s cultivation was only at the Greater Earth Sovereign Realm. Not to mention killing a Sky Monarch if he countered one, that sort of existence could easily kill him with a blow...
Then there’s only one other possibility...
“Could he have killed one of the four sealed Sky Monarch’s soul fragments in the Primodial Sacred Abyss?” The grey-robed elder pondered, since that held the highest possibility.
If Mu Chen had obtained assistance from one of the Four Ancestors, it might be a little troublesome, but it’s not impossible to achieve this.
“If that’s the case, then that brat is a little too lucky!” The grey-robed elder shook his head, and bitterly smiled. Although this method was a little cheating, if that was verified, then their Great Thousand Palace would probably have an unprecedented weakest Demon Slayer King...
‘It looks like I have to report this matter to headquarters...’ The grey-robed elder muttered in his heart. This matter was too important. Even he couldn’t make the decision, so he had to report this to headquarters for them to decide.
When the grey-robed elder looked at the Demon Slayer Plaque again, he couldn’t help shaking his head while looking at the second name. Even he had encountered such a strange matter for the first time, which widened his view now...
...
At the same time, three silhouettes raised their heads in a courtyard and looked at the golden words on the Demon Slayer Plaque.
“Mu Chen? Can it be that sinner?” A grey-robed Elder looked at the golden words and said with an ugly expression.
The black-robed Elder beside him had knitted his brows. Although he didn’t wish to admit it, he still slightly nodded his head. “I’m afraid that it’s really that sinner.”
The two of them were naturally Elder Mo Yin and Hei Guang of the Ancient Buddha Clan.
“How is that possible?!” Elder Mo Yin said in a solemn voice. He knew how difficult it was to become a Demon Slayer King in the Great Thousand Palace.
Elder Hei Guang briefly hesitated before he replied, “It’s not impossible. After all, there are soul fragments of Sky Monarchs sealed in the Sacred Abyss...”
Elder Mo Yin’s face changed. ‘If that was the case, could it mean that Mu Chen has obtained the inheritance? Because there will surely be one of the Four Ancestors with the sealed Sky Monarch’s soul fragment...’
And they guessed that there’s a high possibility that Mu Chen had found the inheritance of their Pagoda Ancestor! Could it be that the Eight-Divisional Pagoda was going to fall in Mu Chen’s hands?
The two’s expressions turned ugly from just the thought of it. Sitting beside them, Elder Qing Xuan’s gaze flickered while looking at the Demon Slayer Plaque with her heart trembling.
“He actually became a Demon Slayer King...” She muttered. If Mu Chen really became the Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand World, his status would practically undergo a complete change.
“Hmph, stop dreaming. The Great Thousand Palace will surely not recognise this method of rising. Furthermore, a Greater Earth Sovereign as a Demon Slayer King? Wouldn’t the Great Thousand Palace be humiliated if it got out?” Elder Hei Guang ridiculed.
Qing Xuan glanced at him before she faintly replied, “Your words mean nothing in this matter, Elder Hei Guang. The Great Thousand Palace is the one deciding this matter.”
Elder Hei Guang was briefly stunned before he snickered, “No matter what, we can absolutely not allow the Eight-Divisional Pagoda fall in the hands of that sinner. Otherwise, our Ancient Buddha Clan will become a laughing stock!”
His words contained coldness.
“Hei Guang, what do you want to do?! If you make a move, you’ll be disobeying the order of the Grand Elder!” Qing Xuan could tell the meaning behind his words, so she hollered with her face changed.
“You want to force my younger sister to break apart with the clan?”
Elder Mo Yin sneered, “If it really comes to that step, we can only put down the Grand Elder’s binding for the time being. I believe that the Grand Elder will back us up in this matter.”
“The Grand Elder has been too lenient with Qing Yanjing, allowing her to take it too far!”
“I will not bear this sinner hopping around beneath my eyes!”
Qing Xuan was angered to the point that her face turned pale and a boundless Spiritual Energy burst out from her body. It had immediately shattered space and suppressed towards Hei Guang and Mo Yin.
“Elder Qing Xuan, what are you trying to do?!” The two of them retreated before a powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation burst from their bodies, easily resisting Qing Xuan’s Spiritual Energy pressure.
“Elder Qing Xuan, are you trying to help the sinner?! If that’s the case, I’m afraid that your entire Qing Bloodline will be punished!” Elder Mo Yin coldly said.
Clenching her teeth, Qing Xuan’s ample bosom gently moved. A brief moment later, she slowly retracted her Spiritual Energy and coldly looked at the two of them. “If the two of you insist on being stubborn, then the two of you will be the ones bearing the consequences!
“See if the Grand Elder can protect you two fools when my little sister goes crazy!”
When she finished her words, she waved her sleeve and left.
Hei Guang and Mo Xin’s gazes flickered before the two of them coldly snorted. They really didn’t believe that their entire Ancient Buddha Clan couldn’t do anything to her, even if she’s powerful!
No matter what, they cannot allow the Eight-Divisional Pagoda to fall into the hands of the sinner, Mu Chen. This time, they must definitely capture that sinner and bring him to the clan to be judged!
