Rise of the Demon God-Chapter 1430 - 1430

"The Temple of Ancestral Beast Temple..." Long Chen said, stepping inside the tower. 

The place which was supposed to be the time of Little Snow once upon a time. She couldn't help but imagine how powerful she must have been when she was here. 

From what he knew, the Heavenly Emperor was as strong as the Godly Beast Emperor. And the two Ancestral Beasts were many times stronger than these people. 

If that was the case, didn't that mean she was strong enough to wipe the floor with the Heavenly Emperor? What he didn't understand was how she ended up so weak?

From what he knew, the two Ancient Beasts fought and disappeared. Did it mean Little Snow was killed in the battle and came back to life in the form of an egg? Or was it something else? But where did the Phoenix disappear then? 

Moreover, how did the egg end up with Tian Shen? Did he have a hand in it? Something wasn't adding up. Maybe this temple was going to have some answers. 

The walls in the surroundings weren't empty. They seemed to have many drawings depicting something which Long Chen couldn't decipher. This was like a completely different language. 

He could only turn to the expert around him. 

"Xun, can you read these?"

"I can't read this. It's not like I know every language in this world," Xun replied, observing the markings on the wall. 

"Since we can't read it, shall we continue ahead? Almost everyone else left," Zhu Chang reminded Long Chen. 

"The fastest isn't always the best. I don't think there will be a box waiting at the top when answers. The answers we need should be in small things like these," Long Chen answered. 

"Unfortunately, we can't understand what's written here," he added as he let out a deep sigh. 

"Wait, that doesn't look like a word," he suddenly noticed something on the wall. 

There was something that appeared like a small phoenix carving. 

"That's the Rainbow Phoenix if I'm not wrong," Bai Gu said, noticing the markings on the wall. 

Long Chen walked towards the wall, observing the markings. 

"This is certainly like that statue I had seen in that place..."

"Statue? What do you mean?" Zhu Chang asked. 

"I don't know what the place was. It was like a different realm where I saw two statues. One of the two statues was this," Long Chen replied, remembering about the ghost island. 

It was the place where he had freed the young boy. He still didn't know who the young boy was. All he knew was that the boy possessed incredible power. 

He seemed to have no cultivation, but his powers were so strong that he could literally destroy cities with a wave of his hands. 

After coming under the wrong influence, Long Chen remembered how he had to fight. He had almost lost, but he didn't remember what happened next. All he knew was what Ji Shan told him about the person being killed by Long Chen.

Long Chen didn't remember how or what happened. He only had one clue, and it was what he was told by Long Tian, who was inside the real bloodline temple, still safe. 

He told Long Chen that someone had helped him... Someone who owned this bloodline. He also said that the one couldn't help him again since he had used whatever energy he had left. 

Both the statues of Ancestral Beasts were inside the special realm that was connected to the Ghost Island. That just meant that the two Godly Beasts were related to the boy. 

"Can you tell me when the rainbow actually appeared above your realms?" He asked, turning to Zhu Chang. 

Zhu Chang and Bai Hu both answered the question. 

'That certainly matches up. It's right around the time when I found the broken statue of the Phoenix in that realm,' Long Chen thought, frowning. 

'If only I could've kept the kid safe, I might've been able to find some answers.'

"What are you thinking?" Zhu Chang asked. 

"Nothing," Long Chen let out, shaking his head. He casually placed his fingers over the phoenix symbol on the wall. 

"The Rainbow Phoenix... I wonder where it is if it's actually up. Is it looking for the other Ancient Beast? Or looking for something else? Or it is also weak like..."

"Let's continue." He didn't finish his sentence and turned to the exit of the hallway. 

He left the hall with others. "Hopefully, other places will have something we can understand."

He soon left the hall.

...

On the Plum Blossom Mountain, the Devourer finally returned after finding another youngster on the way. This time, he didn't just kill the youngsters. 

Instead, he brought the boy here to open the entrance of the tomb. 

"Go ahead. Use your blood!" He commanded the boy.

He pointed at the body lying on the ground with blood around it. "Before I'm forced to take your blood myself like I did last time." 

"I-i will do it!" The boy immediately agreed, terrified. 

He sliced his finger a bit, letting the blood fall on the ground. 

As the blood droplet fell, a formation appeared on the ground. 

"Heh, good. Your work here is done," Devourer said. 

The boy nodded and turned to leave. 

"I didn't say you could go," Devourer let out, laughing. 

Argh~

What followed was the scream of the kid who soon disappeared along with what remained of the other bodies. 

Devourer stepped on the formation and disappeared with it. 

Just a few minutes after Devourer disappeared, another person reached the mountain. 

It was a middle-aged man who frowned at the sight of the blood on the ground. What stunned him even more, was that there weren't any people there. Not a single person could be seen, which shouldn't have happened.

"This place shouldn't be empty... Unless Devourer... That Bastard came here. But where is he now? Did he run away?" He looked around, not expecting Devourer to enter the first temple. 

"Wait. Where is Zhu Chang? Did Devourer kill him? No! He can't die that easily. Did he enter the tomb?"

He sliced his finger and made a blood droplet fall on the ground. He opened the portal again and entered the Tomb, not because he thought Devourer was here, but because he believed that Zhu Chang was inside when Devourer came here. He needed to bring Zhu Chang back. 

He also disappeared along with the portal. 

As his bloodline was more pure, he was taken straight to the core of the temple. On the other hand, Devourer didn't even have the bloodline.. He was taken to the farthest end of the Tomb, making his journey even more difficult.
