Dragon Blooded War God

They already know who I am and about the treasure in my possession. Both the Gold clan and the Wind clan should be hunting me to get the Martial God Tombstone and the Profound Golden Soul. The others won’t let me go either. I might’ve become stronger, but they are still stronger than me. Should I proceed to the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage before I get out?

Long Chen was still deciding when Little Cat interrupted him. “You should stop when you can. Did you really think that this place was safe?”

“Wait, is it dangerous here?” Long Chen was confused.

“Where do you think the Metal Devouring Wind came from?”

Long Chen combed through his memories. He recalled that the first time he saw it, the Metal Devouring Wind appeared to have exploded upwards from underground. Wait …

“Roughly one kilometer down, there’s an ocean of Metal Devouring Wind. The natural disaster that you saw is due to the Metal Devouring Wind erupting and escaping to the surface. You are now somewhere in the middle, not too close and not too far away from the ocean of Metal Devouring Wind. I told you to cultivate here in peace because the ocean of Metal Devouring Wind was calm, but now it seems that it's getting more and more violent. I think it will erupt again soon. Even with the Profound Golden Soul, I think you will have a hard time dodging it!”

“Fuck! Why didn’t you tell me that earlier?!” Long Chen had to thank his good luck for completing the cultivation of the Golden Emperor Veiled Heaven Seal earlier. He would’ve been torn to pieces if the Metal Devouring Wind hit him while he was cultivating!

Long Chen naturally didn’t want to stay here anymore, so he nodded. “In that case I will leave now. The Ancient Graveyard is huge and I have Sight. It won’t be easy for them to find me. As long as I’m in the Metal District, Feng Zhilin will have a hard time catching me since I have the Profound Golden Soul.”

He activated the Profound Golden Soul and swam upwards. He was curious as to what had happened aboveground after an entire month.

He popped his head out of the ground and saw that it was nighttime. He wasn’t sure where the Ancient Graveyard was, but based on the constellations, it appeared to be in another dimension. Somehow there was a sun and moon here too just like in the Dragon Continent. Long Chen thought that the Ancient Graveyard was most likely in another corner of the Dragon Continent.

He heard someone say before that the Ancient Graveyard was the stretch of uninhabited land between the Ten Thousand Nations Territory and the Three Emperor Territory.

Wait, I smell blood! Someone’s here! Long Chen noticed it immediately. While many people knew his name, most of them associated his name with his transformed state, including Feng Zhilin. Long Chen wasn’t worried that people would start hunting him down the moment he appeared.

Also, he was quite far away from Black Gold City. He looked around and recognized that he was still in the Metal District, but in an unknown place. Compared to the flat land of Black Gold City, the place he was in was populated by a forest of metal spikes. The metal spikes jutted outwards from the sand!

He assumed that the metal spikes were most likely very ancient since they were completely rusted. The smells of rust and blood mixed together in the air, forming a uniquely disgusting stench.

Long Chen used Sight and checked out the area around him. Because the area was densely covered by metal spikes, each tens of meters tall, he had no choice but to use Sight to scout the area.

He looked around and found where the smell of blood was coming from. He saw over twenty cultivators fighting.

They are fighting hard. Is there treasure there? Long Chen held his breath and slowly approached the fight. The cultivators were so busy fighting that none of them noticed him.

Wait, so many people have died here! Long Chen noticed that there were already thirty corpses on the ground. Did a treasure appear here and attracted their attention? Maybe that’s why they are fighting to the death.

Long Chen looked past the group of people fighting and saw a metallic cavern. The entrance to the cave was dark, but there was a soft, blue light coming from the end of the tunnel.

The cavern resembled the entrance to a tomb. Since this was the Ancient Graveyard, it was most likely that the cavern was indeed a tomb.

That meant there were treasures in there.

I wonder what the treasure is? Long Chen was curious. He looked at the people fighting in hopes that he would glean some information.

Most of them were at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage and several were at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage. Most of them were injured and had chosen to sit out from the fight since they knew they had no more chances of winning. They all stared at the two people fighting in the middle. Both of them were at the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage!

Those at the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage were considered experts here in the Ancient Graveyard.

There weren't that many people at the Eighth Earthly Martial Stage here.

The two of them were fighting to the death.

“Hey, who do you think will get the seventh spot to enter the tomb?”

“I think the man in black has a better chance. He only got here recently, so he didn’t have to fight that many people. He should have more energy.”

“I think the other person is stronger since he could defeat another person at the Seventh Earthly Martial Stage just now! He’s not your average cultivator.”

“There’s only one last spot, and it doesn’t concern us anymore. Never thought a tomb would open up here. I wonder what kind of treasure is hidden inside?”

“I don’t know, but I do know there are seven Star Altars inside it. Since even the stronger cultivators are fighting for it, do you think there’s a chance that this is the tomb of one of the Seven Lords, the Seven Star Lord?”

“Dream on. Do you think that we would get to witness the inheritance of the Seven Star Lord? The Demon clan and the Divine clan both rose to their current strength after they obtained the inheritance of the Divine Demon Lord and the White Lotus Fairy respectively. An inheritance on that level is not something we can see with our own eyes …”

One of them laughed.

There were only corpses around him, so he was the only one laughing.

Long Chen observed the situation closely. The two fighting in the middle were at the Seventh Earthly Martial Realm. They were most likely fighting to enter the tomb. There were seven Star Altars, but only one of them was still glowing. This meant that once someone entered, one of the lights would be extinguished.

Is it really the tomb of the Seven Star Lord? Shao Yu had once explained to Long Chen that the treasure of the Five Emperors was considered a legend that didn’t exist in the Ancient Graveyard, but the inheritances of the Seven Lords did. Long Chen wasn’t sure how good the inheritance was, but becoming one of the Seven Lords meant that the Seven Star Lord must’ve been very strong. An expert like that wouldn’t have left some meager inheritance.

The Ancient Graveyard was indeed a good place to hunt for treasure. First, there was the Martial God Tombstone that Long Chen had stolen, and now there was the possible tomb of the Seven Star Lord.

Long Chen decided that he had to enter now. Since there was only one spot left, he decided to contest for it. He also wanted to test his new strength against two injured Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivators.

While the two of them were fighting, the others in the crowd were also thinking about how to reap the rewards for themselves. Then Long Chen appeared.

“Here’s another person trying to take the treasure.”

“What a joke. How could a brat like him get it?”

Everyone was waiting for the two Seventh Earthly Martial Stage cultivators to conclude their fight. They were hoping that the two of them would be injured together, because if any one of them won, the crowd would have no hope of entering the tomb. The crowd also didn’t charge into the tomb, because they were afraid of the two cultivators working together to punish them!

Everyone here was at the Sixth Earthly Martial Stage, so they could sense that Long Chen was only at the Fifth Earthly Martial Stage. They ignored him and continued to spectate the fight.

But they were surprised to see Long Chen ignoring the fight in the middle and walking towards the cave.

The strange youth caught everyone’s attention, including the two fighting in the middle. Both of them separated from their fight and gave themselves some distance as they stared at Long Chen incredulously. They were fighting so hard for the final spot to enter the cave. Wasn’t it a joke to them that Long Chen had just ignored them to enter?
