After a long time, yet another period.
Ling Feng calmed his emotions slightly and put away the Spiritual Treasure. There was no rush to perform a Spiritual Injection now; he needed to return to the Purple Dragon Hall as soon as possible.
As for that Golden Seal, Ling Feng asked the Despicable Donkey, who surprisingly couldn't think of an answer right away. However, judging from his expression, it seemed he vaguely remembered something.
"Despicable Donkey, do you perhaps know the origin of this thing?"
"This Divine Beast is merely guessing."
The Despicable Donkey raised a donkey hoof, resting it under his chin, murmuring to himself: "This Divine Beast once heard Emperor Sky White mention something called the Five Emperor Seals, which appears to hold colossal secrets. Looking at this Golden Seal, it might be the Yellow Emperor Seal among the Five Emperor Seals."
"Five Emperor Seals? Yellow Emperor Seal?"
Ling Feng paused, staring at the Despicable Donkey, and asked in a deep voice, "Explain it carefully."
"The so-called Five Emperor Seals are divided into: Emperor Xuan Seal, Green Emperor Seal, Yellow Emperor Seal, Desolate Emperor Seal, and Dragon Emperor Seal. It's said these Five Emperor Seals carry a Divine Skill created by five Peak Emperors from the Eastern Spirit Domain, with the Dragon Emperor being a Demon Emperor."
"These five legendary figures discarded the prejudices between races and cultivated together, recording their lifelong learning in these Five Emperor Seals. However, the Five Emperor Seals must be fully gathered to obtain the Divine Skill created by these five Emperors. As of now, no force has truly collected all the Five Emperor Seals."
The Despicable Donkey curled his lips, glanced at Ling Feng, and continued: "Of course, whether this Golden Seal is one of the Five Emperor Seals, this Divine Beast is not very sure. If you want to know, you could ask that old rascal Emperor Sky White."
"Hmm."
Ling Feng nodded, putting away the Golden Seal as well, and his gaze returned to the Despicable Donkey, "What about the Two-headed Evil Snake's essence blood and the Orochi Evil Fire you mentioned?"
"Here!"
The Despicable Donkey snapped his fingers, holding a flame in the palm, and sneered: "This is the Two-headed Evil Snake's Fire Seed. As for the rest... hehe..."
"..."
Ling Feng's forehead darkened; judging by the Despicable Donkey's expression, he knew the Two-headed Evil Snake's essence and bloodline were likely all divided between him and Little Qiongqi.
"Little Qiongqi is growing up, why are you so stingy!"
The Despicable Donkey whistled with a look of justified gusto.
Ling Feng rolled his eyes; anyway, he had obtained an entire set of Spiritual Treasures, so he felt great and didn't bother arguing. The most valuable piece for him was just that Fire Seed of Orochi Evil Fire.
...
Half a day later, in a certain cave.
Ling Feng slowly opened his eyes, having refined the Fire Seed of Orochi Evil Fire. The Third Rank Swallowing Flame evolved a little, but the distance to the Fourth-rank Swallowing Flame remained considerably far.
At least one hundred Fire Seeds akin to Orochi Evil Fire must be devoured to reach the next level, or even higher-grade Flames at that.
"About time to leave."
Ling Feng shrugged, his mind inadvertently flashing to the graceful image of Yuee HuaQin, uncertain if she had escaped to safety.
Unfortunately, he still seemed a bit weak. Even with the Despicable Donkey, they might not save Yuee HuaQin, and maybe they'd end up sacrificing themselves.
A chance meeting, he saved her life, which was as considerate as anyone could be.
As for the Golden Seal, hehe, if it really were one of the Five Emperor Seals, something that landed in his pocket, could it really be returned?
No, definitely not!
Within a month, he would leave the Dark Dragon Demon Domain; by then, where could Yuee HuaQin possibly find him?
...
Elsewhere, Yuee HuaQin exerted a secret technique to suppress her injuries and fled at full speed, hoping to escape the bounds of the Dark Dragon Demon Domain. Once achieved, she could see the light of day again.
Once healed, she only needed to locate Ling Feng to reclaim the Yellow Emperor Seal.
Even in the worst-case scenario, if she fell into the hands of the Demon Clan, since the Yellow Emperor Seal was handed over to Ling Feng, those Demons wouldn't easily kill her for the lack of Five Emperor Seals.
Surviving still allowed a chance to escape Demon Clan control.
Apparently, the Demons launched significant forces to pursue her because she stole one of the Five Emperor Seals, the Yellow Emperor Seal, which had been guarded in the Dark Dragon Palace.
Yuee HuaQin dared to hand the Yellow Emperor Seal to Ling Feng, thinking he wouldn't recognize the value of this Golden Seal.
Unfortunately, she accounted for everything except one thing.
The Despicable Donkey beside Ling Feng had vision far beyond her imagination.
Currently, Yuee HuaQin was pursued by nine Demon Clan Experts, surrounded and blocked, nearly exhausting all her strength.
She resented her bad luck for encountering that damn Two-headed Evil Snake; otherwise, she would have already broken free from the Demons' encirclement and left the Demon Realm.
And now, she faced the threat of death at any moment, watching as those Demon Experts closed in closer and closer, filling her heart with despair.
"Can't... hold on anymore?"
Yuee HuaQin coughed up blood. Even though Ling Feng replenished her Vitality Map with Life Rejuvenation Needle, her injuries hadn't fully healed. The secret technique probably wouldn't last much longer.
"Shameless human, hand over the Yellow Emperor Seal, and this Emperor will leave your corpse intact!"
"You have no way to escape, surrender!"
Behind, those imposing Demon Emperor and Demon King experts, each looked vindictive and terrible. The Yellow Emperor Seal was regarded as a Holy Object of Dark Dragon Palace, a symbol of authority. Even if it had no separate effect, outsiders must not touch it.
"Boom!"
A terrifying Demon Energy Handprint lunged at Yuee HuaQin's back, pressing down with a force as if shattering the sky and earth.
The strike from a Demon Emperor Expert was horrific!
"Am... I going to die?"
Despair flashed in Yuee HuaQin's eyes, but at the moment of near-death, she saw a white figure at the blurry end of her sight.
In a stride, it seemed to leap through space-time; a middle-aged man caught Yuee HuaQin's delicate body by the waist with one hand while his left hand slightly raised, instantly shattering the Demon Energy Handprint fully exerted by the Demon Emperor Expert.
"Master... Master..."
Yuee HuaQin lifted her soft gaze, glanced at the middle-aged man, and then peacefully fainted.
In this man's arms, even if the world crumbled, there was an absolute sense of security.
Because he was one of the renowned Peak Emperor Strong of the Eastern Spirit Domain, her Master, the Eastern Splendor Saint Emperor.
The Eastern Splendor Saint Emperor showed no expression on his face, glanced indifferently at the Demon Clan Experts, and said lightly, "I will take my disciple away."
"Hmph, what do you claim to be!"
A Demon Emperor snorted coldly, "Seems you're this human woman's ally, kill you both!"
However, in the next moment, the Demon Emperor Expert bled from seven orifices and fell heavily from mid-air, already dead.
In a silent instance, to kill a Demon Emperor, the identity of this middle-aged man was most likely self-evident.
"Em... Emperor Strong!"
The remaining Demon Kings and Demon Emperors were dumbfounded, trembling all over.
This middle-aged man, even if not the Emperor himself, was likely to be an Emperor Dharma Form.
Even an Emperor Dharma Form could kill a Demon Emperor with a mere thought.
