Long Chen quite liked this girl.
But his goal in getting the Instant Magic Stone was different from hers.
He said, "I want the Instant Magic Stone for other purposes. If I had it, I wouldn't have given it to you, and you wouldn't have the protection of the Chiyou Demon Forefather."
Hearing this, the Satsuma Demon Matriarch was overjoyed. Her smile revealed her white teeth, making her look even more adorable and sweet. She said innocently, "You're really an idiot. If I could become your friend and follow you, I'd rather not have the protection of the Chiyou Demon Matriarch. I'd rather have your protection."
Who would have thought that in her heart, his ability was on par with the Chiyou Demon Forefather's.
Long Chen laughed awkwardly. "I'm not as strong as the Chiyou Demon Forefather."
"But one day, you will surpass them," the Satsuma Demon Forefather said confidently.
Demon Ancestor Satsuma said with certainty. She had strong confidence in Long Chen, even more than Long Chen himself.
Long Chen was moved by her confidence. Among the Primordial Gods, there were people as beautiful as the Satsuma Demon Forefather. His heart had been a little dark before, but now he felt that the doomsday war had been worth it.
"Alright, you can follow me."
After all, she was the Primordial God of the seventh era. If they really fought, Long Chen didn't know if he could beat her. With this helper, it would be of great help.
"That's great."
The Satsuma Demon Forefather was wild with joy. She paced to the side, as though she had received the greatest happiness of her life.
"From today onwards, we are good friends."
"Umm, Satsuma...."
"You called me by my name. I'm Jun Yue, not Satsuma."
The snow-white Jun Yue said anxiously. That was right. Such a delicate girl should be called Jun Yue.
"Come, let's find the Instant Magic Stone together."
The journey didn't seem to be lonely anymore. Looking at this cheerful girl, Long Chen experienced many beautiful things. Of course, he didn't have any evil thoughts in his heart. Indeed, in his heart, Yue Yue was like a daughter who worshipped her father. Putting aside their age, Long Chen treated her like a daughter.
Just like that, after spending a few days together, the two of them got along very well as friends. Even when they were searching for the Instant Magic Stone, Long Chen was very relaxed because of her. This brought him a different state of mind.
In Long Chen's heart, Yue Yue's place in the Creator's heart was on par with Elder God Lingsu's. They were both very simple friends, but they were also friends who could entrust their lives to each other.
"Why isn't there any news yet? How annoying. I really want to help you find it quickly." Yue Yue was quite anxious.
"There's no rush. No one else knows."
Long Chen switched locations several times, but he continued to use time to sense. As for Jun Yue, she had a very good sense of smell. She seemed to be able to smell the scent of the Instant Magic Stone. This was because she had been nearby the last time the Instant Magic Stone had appeared. She remembered its subtle scent.
When the two worked together, they had a huge advantage.
Long Chen rejoiced that he had left Jun Yue behind. Not only did he gain a friend, but he also gained a capable assistant. They met many teams and Primordial Gods while searching for the Instant Magic Stone. Some people wanted to join them, but they were all rejected.
On a certain day a few days later, they seemed to make a new discovery. Long Chen and Jun Yue simultaneously sensed the same direction. It was very rare for the two to coincide, but once they did, it meant that the chances of them appearing were quite high.
"Let's go."
The two moved at their fastest speeds. They were on par with each other. Two beams of light flashed in the starry cosmos. As Long Chen and Jun Yue approached, they could clearly sense the presence of the Instant Magic Stone.
"Success or failure will all depend on this."
At this moment, Long Chen used his 10,000x time domain, greatly increasing the flow of time. He moved extremely quickly, traversing millions of kilometers in an instant. In that instant, he could clearly see a stone the size of a thumb floating in the starry cosmos. It had appeared previously, but it had remained there all this time. It could only be said that this time, it had remained there for a longer period of time.
"There it is." Jun Yue successfully saw it as well.
Her gaze did not linger on the Instant Magic Stone. Instead, she rapidly scanned her surroundings. This way, she would be able to help Long Chen understand the situation in advance. Based on her observations, it was clear that there were no other competitors in the vicinity. As long as Long Chen moved faster, everything would be fine.
"Quick, quick!"
The two pushed their speed to their limits. They were already much faster than the other Primordial Elder Gods of the seventh era, but … just as Long Chen approached, the Instant Magic Stone suddenly vanished.
"How is this possible?"
The two of them were still a step too slow. Jun Yue's face was filled with vexation. She had thought that she would succeed this time around, but she was still a step too slow. In her heart, she was anxious for Long Chen to obtain the Instant Magic Stone.
This was because she was very clear that Long Chen really needed the Instant Magic Stone.
"It's alright. I'll wait for next time."
Seeing that she was disappointed, Long Chen patted her shoulders. Actually, he had encountered such situations many times. This time around, he was not disappointed. Instead, he continued searching.
"Alright, I'll definitely get it next time."
Jun Yue had regained her confidence. Her mood recovered relatively quickly, and it didn't take long before she started giggling like a blossoming flower.
However, just as they were about to head to the next location, another group of people had just arrived due to the commotion caused by the Instant Magic Stone. They happened to bump into Long Chen, who was about to leave.
There were a total of ten people in this group, which was the upper limit set by the Chiyou Demonic Ancestor. Among them was Drought Demon Ancestor. Of the five eighth era Primordial Elder Gods that had been injured by Long Chen, only three were left. It was likely that the two groups had combined and abandoned the weaker and injured ones.
This time, there were seven eighth era Primordial Elder Gods in this group.
Of course, there were three seventh era Primordial Elder Gods, including Drought Demon Ancestor.
The other two new companions of Drought Demon Ancestor happened to be the same type as him. As the saying went, birds of a feather flock together. Samo Demon Ancestor and Long Chen walked together, and the three of them gathered together.
One of them was like the Primordial War Ancestor. He was made of steel and had no flesh or blood. However, his entire body was silver, and his arms and legs were segmented. His head was also rather ugly. Although he was in human form, upon closer inspection, he looked like a worm. He had a majestic demonic aura. Clearly, this was a Primordial Ancestor God of the demonic race.
The other one wore a gray robe and had a stooped figure. He held a withered wooden staff with a skull at the top. Under the gray robe, this person was shrouded in gray mist, but one could see that he did not have much flesh or blood. Most of his bones were exposed, and even if he had flesh or blood, it was dried rotten flesh, as if he had been eaten by a flock of crows.
These two new seventh era Primordial Elder Gods were a perfect match for Drought Demon Ancestor. In fact, they were even more sinister than Drought Demon Ancestor. This was especially true for the gray-robed person, who was like a god of death. The large amount of death aura on him was actually related to the 'Death' rule.
The steel worm was the 'Silver Succubus Demonic Ancestor'. His true form was a steel centipede, the Silver Succubus. Like the Primordial War Ancestor, the Silver Succubus was adept at the 'Steel' rule, and also possessed intense venom. Although he was also born in the middle of the seventh era, he was still very powerful.
The other gray-robed person was the 'Dead Soul Ghost Ancestor'. The world he created was the 'Dead Soul World'. The rule he was adept at was the 'Death' rule, similar to that of Long Chen. However, the Dead Soul Ghost Ancestor was even more sinister. He could even control corpses and was extremely cruel.
Drought Demon Ancestor, the Silver Succubus Demonic Ancestor, and the Dead Soul Ghost Ancestor were all born in the middle of the seventh era. Their strength could be said to be on par with each other.
However, as soon as the two teams met, Long Chen could feel the intense hostility from the other side, especially from Drought Demon Ancestor. He shouted angrily, "Long Chen, Samoyed Demonic Ancestor, hand over the Instant Magic Stone. Hurry up, or I'll let you have a taste of my Drought Demon's Wrath, as well as their Silver Succubus Poison and Dead Soul Resentment."
As long as the Ancestral Gods Alliance existed, the three of them could not kill Long Chen and the others. Therefore, in general, the only way to scare them was by torturing them. For example, Lingxi's Lifetime Heart Corrosion Curse.
Only then would Dark Night Divine Ancestor truly submit.
The Drought Demon's Wrath, Silver Succubus Poison, and Dead Soul Resentment were all methods that could make one wish for death. The difference between them and the Lifetime Heart Corrosion Curse was that the curse was continuous and unbreakable. These three methods could not be maintained forever, and the damage they caused was also very short. However, in terms of power and immediate torment, they were about the same.
Therefore, Drought Demon Ancestor used this as a threat.
Long Chen said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you. The Instant Magic Stone is faster than you think. If I really managed to snatch it, this world would be enough for me to reach the Jiuli Demon Domain before you arrived. I'm still here waiting for you to snatch it."
This was the truth. Once he obtained the Instant Magic Stone, he would definitely bring it back to the Death Reign and leave it nowhere to run.
However, whether they believed him or not was beyond Long Chen's control. Fortunately, the three Ancestral Gods of the Seventh Era probably believed him, so they were not in a hurry to snatch it. However, he did not expect them to still surround Long Chen and Drought Demon Ancestor.
On the other side, Long Chen had already opened the Death Reign Dragon Gate. Although it was risky, it should not be a problem for him to escape under the attack of the ten opponents. However, he was puzzled as to why they surrounded him. Was it revenge?
As expected, Drought Demon Ancestor said through gritted teeth, "Long Chen, you have the Primordial War Ancestor's protection, so we are not going to touch you this time. However, Demon Ancestor Satsuma must stay. She betrayed us and is a traitor. Traitors must be punished."
"You can leave. As long as you do not interfere, we can spare you. However, Demon Ancestor Satsuma must stay. Otherwise, you will be going against us. Even if we bring this up to the Ancestral Gods Alliance, you will not be in the right."
