Chronicles Of The Shura Clan

The main reason Ling Chen was playing along with them and acting stupid was that he wanted to know what Old Yan and the others were planning.

Now that Old Yan has spilled all the beans and even poisoned his comrades, he didn\'t have any reason to play pretend anymore.

Furthermore, even if he wanted to continue, he couldn\'t as the Great Luo Martial God has already blown his cover.

Though Ling Chen was still calm and composed, deep down, he was extremely shocked. He didn\'t see any of these coming at all.

Whether it was the fact that all the Demon Gods have already been subdued by one of the Great Luo Martial God\'s subordinate, Old Yan poisoning the Demon Gods and the Human Demi-God experts, or even the sudden appearance of the Great Luo Martial God, each one of these events was more shocking than the other.

He already knew that Old Yan was conspiring against him, however, he was completely oblivious of his other schemes.

He always thought that the most terrorizing aspect of Old Yan was his strength which he was hiding. However, he now realized that he was wrong. Old Yan\'s most fearful edge lied with his calculations.

Though he was still unsuccessful against him, he still managed to plot against the most powerful experts in this world and succeeded.

While thinking about the poisoned Demon Gods and the human Demi-God experts on the ground, Ling Chen\'s mouth couldn\'t help but curve upward into an evil smile.

Old Yan was truly his lucky star. Not only he had provided him with good nutrients, he even left him a grand feast.

Though Ling Chen was very strong and was also extremely confident of his strength, It would have been extremely difficult for him to kill and subdued all the nine Demon Gods and the seven Demi-God experts all by himself.

However, because of Old Yan, they were all handed to him on a silver platter. So how could he not be happy and grateful to him?

One could only imagine just how powerful he will become after absorbing the blood and life essence of the Nine Demon Gods and the seven human Demi-God experts.

He had already absorbed the blood and life essence of Old Yan who had already broken through the Mortal Deity Rank, now adding the blood and life essence of another sixteen Demi-God powerhouses. Well, one could only imagine the rest.

Seeing the wicked and evil smile on Ling Chen\'s face, the paralyzed Demon Gods and human Demi-God experts\' faces suddenly turned ugly.

"No!" The Demon Gods and the human Demi-God all turned pale from fear as they mustered all their remaining strength and yelled.

Even though he didn\'t say anything, they already knew what Ling Chen was thinking. They were scared out of their minds and wanted to run for their lives but couldn\'t move at all.

Ling Chen smiled and said: "Rest assured, though it will be very painful, it will be very quick."

In the next second;

"Zzz—" A strange sound came about as numerous dark roots burst out from Ling Chen\'s back like octopus tentacle and thrust out towards the paralyzed experts on the ground.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" The dozens of dark roots were as fast lightning so they looked liked numerous black lightning bolts.

It didn\'t take even a fraction of a second before the numerous dark roots that looked like octopus tentacles pierced through the chests and the skull of the Demi-God experts and the Demon Gods on the ground.

"Ah!" The experts couldn\'t help scream in pain as the numerous dark tree roots pierced through their bodies.

The dark tree roots seemed to be sharper than even the sharpest arrows as they not only pierced through their flesh but even their bones.

Swoosh! Swoosh!Swoosh!

And like a vacuum, the sucker on the dark tree roots began draining the blood and life essence of the paralyzed experts on the ground.

gulp! gulp!

As it was Ling Chen\'s first time absorbing the blood and life essence of numerous powerful experts at the same time, the suction speed wasn\'t as fast as when he was absorbing the blood and life essence of Old Yan.

The suction was so slow that one could even see the blood and life essence flowing through the numerous dark roots as though it was a tube.

"Little devil stop, if you want to survive in this place, you\'ll need our strength." Even characters like the White Tiger Demon God were frightened as their blood and life essence were being sucked dry.

After all, few could face death without fear. Moreover, being squeezed dry like this was even more terrifying. One could only imagine the pain of having your blood and life essence being sucked away.

"You\'re right. I do need your strength to survive and you are giving it to me."Ling Chen coldly answered with a devilish smile on his face.

"Hahahaha! Truly marvelous. What a terrifying innate ability. I can\'t wait to possess such a fleshy body. Little guy, hurry up. I want to give this future body of mine a test run to see whether or not it\'s truly worthy for me to give up my Tyrannical Elephant Physique for it." At this moment, the ancient and overbearing voice of the Great Luo Martial God rang out again from within the other room. There was a hint of excitement and anticipation in his voice.

From the look of it, it seemed like he didn\'t even plan on stopping Ling Chen from increasing his strength by absorbing the blood and life of the seventeen Demi-God Rank experts. Either he was an overconfident fool or he truly had the strength and power to utterly crush Ling Chen even after increasing his strength. As such, he didn\'t care about it.

However, there was no change in Ling Chen\'s expression whatsoever even after hearing the Great Luo Martial God\'s words, he was still lost in this euphoric feeling of absorbing the blood and life essence of the numerous experts on the ground as well as the feeling of having his strength steadily skyrocketing.

Meanwhile, the absorption speed was now countless times faster. In a short period, the group completely changed in appearance. Their hair turned gray and their skin became loose.

Whether it was their blood, life essence, True Qi energy, Nascent Soul, they were all being drained away at an astonishing speed.

"No! Please spare my life." A human Demi-God unwillingly screamed out. No matter how strong one might be, they would show fear at this period and uncontrollably scream.

Not only him, but all of them were also screaming and asking for mercy. Seeing that Ling Chen turned a deaf ear to their pleading, some of them started to curse him and hope that he would suffer the same fate in the hand of the Great Luo Martial God.

Though they weren\'t willing to die like this, there was nothing they could do.

While the human Demi-God experts have already turned into decrepit old men, and their bodies dried up with wrinkles everywhere after losing more than half of their vitalities, the White Tiger Demon Gods and the other Demon Gods were all turned into shriveled and old demon beast as they were forced to reverse to their beast form as their vitalities were being drained.

After their blood and life essences were stolen, they didn\'t look like the invincible men they once were.

Just imagine how unbeatable and dreadful the White Tiger Demon and the other human Demi-God expert used to be. Alas, before Ling Chen, they were mere fish on the chopping board.

Who would have thought that the once invincible group would have such a result today?

While all this was happening, a huge change was also happening within Ling Chen\'s sea of consciousness. Numerous cracks continued to appear on the barrier that separated his sea of consciousness and lower dantian, or the endless dark void and the infinite white space.

Not only that, but the huge Dark Godly Tree within his sea of consciousness was also growing at a visible rate. However, Ling Chen didn\'t have time to check any of these changes as he was concentrated on absorbing the blood and life essence of the experts on the ground.

"Gulp! Gulp!—" Amid the hellish screams and cursed of the experts on the ground, the numerous dark tree roots continued to greedily swallow and suck what little left of their blood and life essences.

In the blink of an eye, the nine Demon Gods and the seven human Demi-God experts died one after another. They all turned into dried corpses and have been robbed of all. Only skin and bones were left of them.

Sensing the boiling and limitless power now within his body, Ling Chen couldn\'t help but feel excited. He could feel that his current power was at least several dozen times greater than before.

"Now, why were saying again?"Ling Chen coldly asked as he shifted his icy gaze towards the metal door guarded by the two giant metal humanoid creatures.
