20demayo Chapter 816 The God-King Resurrects! The Dark Night King!
Chapter 816 The God-King Resurrects! The Dark Night King!
The owl-like voice fell, and a terrifying aura enveloped the underground palace.
Is anyone else there?
The Jiang family members' expressions changed slightly. Judging from the words of the newcomer, the other party seemed to have a certain amount of confidence even when facing a saint!
A hint of a smile flashed in Chu Yang's eyes. He stepped aside, pointed at Jiang Taixu, and said softly, "You're right. In that case, you can bypass me and go kill the Old God King!"
He no longer needed to get involved in what happened next.
"Young Emperor Chu, I've heard of you. If you can truly borrow the power of your past life, then I'll take my leave!" The owl-like voice rang out again.
He seemed to be wary, suspecting that Chu Yang's easy decision to step aside might be a trap, so he didn't dare to make a move rashly.
In fact, Chu Yang's greatest reliance was his own true spirit, but since there were other ways, why did he have to take action himself?
The so-called power of a past life is like nuclear weapons; it serves as a deterrent, but if it is actually used, things become much more complicated.
Intimidation and direct pressure are two different things. What will the major holy lands and aristocratic families think when they all believe that he can mobilize the power of the emperor at any time?
That means that this era, and possibly for a very long time to come, will be dominated by Chu Yang alone.
The existence of an emperor for the human race is a good thing for the world.
But for the Holy Land families, it would be an incredibly dark period.
Therefore, it is very likely that some people will take risks, just like those people who came to kill Jiang Taixu today.
Chu Yang wasn't afraid, but if those holy land families really brought out their ultimate imperial weapons, although he could suppress them, there was a high chance that a supreme being from a forbidden zone would take the opportunity to cause trouble.
By then, it would be equivalent to him being the enemy of the entire Big Dipper constellation all by himself.
The worst-case scenario would be the destruction of a portion of the Big Dipper star system, such as sinking the Eastern Wilderness.
He also plans to make a few more profits in the Big Dipper Starfield, and then go to other places after he reaches the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm or the Sendai Secret Realm.
In short, if the purpose was for training, why destroy the training ground?
Besides, there was absolutely no need for him to take action. Wasn't the reason he "pointed out" Wei Yi at Tianxuan Stone Workshop to prepare for situations like today?
If either Wei Yi or the Old Madman is nearby, he will definitely make a move.
Because they all knew that their actions were minor, but Chu Yang's actions would cause a major upheaval.
Now that the problem has been solved, let the various holy lands and aristocratic families guess whether they can use the "power of their past life"!
In any case, once Jiang Taixu is "resurrected," he will have even fewer opportunities to use his true spiritual power.
Unless you're venturing into those forbidden zones of life, or the dojo of some great emperor.
But the shock this event brought to everyone who was paying attention to the situation in the underground palace was even more direct than Chu Yang directly borrowing the power of his previous life!
Because he was a living saint!
Having a sage protect the Way is something that has never been heard of since the ancient times!
Chu Yang was slightly surprised, because logically speaking, the old madman had not yet completed his first transformation and become a middle-aged man.
It's probably because of the impact I caused that the old madman "awakened" prematurely.
If that's the case...
His second transformation should also come sooner than expected!
The idea of having a "young" old madman act as a mutual guide is enough to give those sacred families a headache.
Seeing that Chu Yangzhen was standing aside without making any move, the hidden expert could no longer restrain himself. Endless darkness surged and enveloped Jiang Taixu.
However, at this moment, an extremely terrifying power of blood and qi surged into the sky, and the Dragon Transformation Pool was filled with a dazzling light and mist, making it impossible to see the scene inside clearly.
Immediately afterwards, a figure in white slowly walked out.
At this moment, Jiang Taixu showed no signs of aging; on the contrary, he was as handsome and elegant as if he had returned to his prime.
The blackness receded like a tide, and from the endless darkness high in the sky came a roar of resentment.
"Impossible! How could it be so fast?!"
He couldn't understand why Jiang Taixu could be resurrected so quickly, even if he could.
He naturally couldn't have imagined that Chu Yang and Ye Fan alone could assemble a nearly complete immortal elixir for Jiang Taixu.
If it weren't for the fact that it was pieced together and didn't contain the complete power of the Great Dao rules, its medicinal power would be far from that of a true immortal elixir, and it would probably be more than just a life-extending medicine.
A truly complete elixir of immortality is enough to allow Jiang Taixu to defy fate and live a second life!
Jiang Taixu ignored the person in the shadows and turned to look at Fairy Caiyun, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Fairy Caiyun stared at him intently, raising her withered, aged hand as if to touch his face, but then withdrew it.
She turned her head away, unwilling to face Jiang Taixu in her current state.
Jiang Taixu sighed softly, withdrew his gaze, and turned to look at Chu Yang, nodding solemnly and respectfully.
Everything was silent, yet it seemed to be expressing some kind of determination.
Chu Yang simply smiled, while Jiang Taixu looked at Ye Fan with a smile on his face.
Chu Yang was not his successor because he believed he was not qualified to be the other's preacher.
But Ye Fan was his true successor. Moreover, the fact that Ye Fan, after obtaining the Dou Zi Secret, was willing to offer his most precious treasure to help, even though he could have stayed out of it, and stepped forward at the crucial moment, was enough to show his character.
Furthermore, the opponent possesses the Ancient Sacred Body, so although the path is severed and difficult to resume, it is not entirely without a chance.
The Ancient Sacred Body is invincible among those of the same realm, and the Great Perfection Sacred Body can challenge even the Great Emperor. As long as the curse is broken, the future is bright.
Overall, Jiang Taixu was very satisfied with this successor, and thus incurred Chu Yang's favor in an unspoken way.
After all, if Chu Yang hadn't asked him to leave the secret of the Dou character on the stone wall, he might not have been able to find such a suitable successor.
Jiang Taixu withdrew his gaze again, and then his eyes gradually turned cold.
Next, it's time for the reckoning!
Thirteen Holy Lords, three old monsters, and a powerful figure secretly wielding an ultimate imperial weapon.
Every single enemy who invaded today is, in Jiang Taixu's eyes, already a dead man.
Chu Yang didn't get involved in what happened next, and instead left the Jiang family with everyone around him.
He wasn't afraid of anyone coming to cause him trouble. At least in this holy city, even if a holy family came to his door with an ultimate imperial weapon, they wouldn't be able to get past Wei Yi.
Unless the other party disregards the consequences and completely revives the Imperial Weapon, even if they can defeat Wei Yi, there's still the Old Madman!
Having gotten past the old madman, Jiang Taixu somehow managed to get over as well...
With three beings who could roam freely in the Big Dipper Starfield, except for restricted areas, protecting him, Chu Yang could act with complete impunity even without a true spirit.
On the way back, Chu Yang looked at Qin Yao and said, "Didn't I tell you not to interfere? Why couldn't you all resist?"
Qin Yao rolled her eyes, exuding charm, "You little ingrate! I was worried about you getting into trouble, and now you're blaming me?"
The others all wore expressions of mockery and ambiguity, and several of the bandit's descendants even winked at Chu Yang.
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled. In fact, it wasn't just Qin Yao; many people couldn't hold back before the old madman made his move.
This allowed him to see clearly, in a moment of crisis, whether the people's feelings for him were genuine or not.
As it turns out, every single one of these guys, whether they're usually unreliable or extremely serious, is dependable when it matters.
After all, they were "Ye Fan's Choice," and Chu Yang already knew their character; otherwise, these people wouldn't have had the chance to come to his side.
He was somewhat surprised by the Golden-Winged Roc King, who seemed to be ready to fight to the death.
You should know that when others take action, they all have their own reliance on something.
Jiang Huai-ren's grandfather, Jiang Yi, and Tu Fei's grandfather, Tu Tian, were both secretly involved at the time.
Once the four descendants of the notorious bandits make their move, the two of them will not stand idly by.
There were also the Azure Dragon King and the Peacock King. Chu Yang even sensed an aura even stronger than theirs, and it was from the demon race, probably the Crimson Dragon Daoist.
Even Qin Yao possesses the Azure Emperor's Sacred Weapon.
But the Golden-Winged Roc King had nothing!
Old Peng Wang isn't here, so it's beyond his reach.
The Golden-Winged Roc King was driven entirely by passion, wanting to charge forward with his neck stiffened.
Chu Yang distorted his perception. Although he would make Chu Yang acknowledge him as his master, it was not the kind of master-servant relationship with absolute control.
Just like Ma Xianhong and Qu Tong in the world of supernatural beings, the former has clearly been "brainwashed" by the latter, but whenever it comes to matters of bottom line and principles of conduct, there is still a struggle between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, and it even gradually gets out of control.
Normally, the Golden-Winged Roc King would naturally obey all of Chu Yang's arrangements, as long as they didn't cross his bottom line, such as asking him to kill the Old Roc King.
The Golden-Winged Roc King would never agree to such a thing.
Even if he were asked to die for Chu Yang, under normal circumstances he would struggle and hesitate.
But earlier in the underground palace, this guy hesitated for a moment.
This made Chu Yang completely put his mind at ease. Although he had taken this person as a member of his family before, Chu Yang had always been on guard.
It now seems that Golden-Winged Roc King has undergone some changes under his subtle influence.
Upon returning to the demon clan's palace, Chu Yang and the others found the courtyard bustling with activity as soon as they entered.
Ye Fan was also invited. He couldn't be of much help to the Jiang family. The old god king would have to spend a lot of time dealing with the invading enemies.
Although Hengyu Divine Furnace sealed off the entire Holy City, the hidden powerhouse, the Dark Night King, one of the former Twin Kings of Zhongzhou, was no pushover.
Although the opponent has not reached the Saint realm, with the help of the Supreme Emperor Weapon and the Great Completion King Body, he can be comparable to a Saint!
This was also the biggest reason why he was still determined to kill Jiang Taixu even after the old madman made his move.
However, Jiang Taixu was already a saint, and while the other party had an ultimate imperial weapon, so did he!
Moreover, his bloodline can resonate with the Hengyu Divine Furnace.
Dealing with the Dark Night King, then hunting down those three old monsters and the thirteen Saint Lord-level figures, will inevitably take some time.
Although this time will be very short, Ye Fan has no need to stay there.
In contrast, he was more curious about Chu Yang.
The divine spring in the ancient forbidden land... once roamed freely in Purple Mountain... even had the old madman protecting it...
All these events made Ye Fan want to investigate them thoroughly.
After all, every single thing was somehow connected to him.
But when Ye Fan saw the several figures waiting in the palace, he immediately went numb.
Five supreme beings at the Saint Lord level!
Among them was that Crimson Dragon Taoist!
Back in Shizhai, he cut off all the stones that the Red Dragon Taoist had his eye on, and then "absconded with the money."
How did we end up bumping into each other here?
"Her Highness will be emerging from seclusion soon. During this time, none of you should wander around to avoid any unforeseen complications," the Peacock King instructed Pang Bo, Qin Yao, and the little dragon king in green robes.
The three nodded in agreement, then turned and left.
Before leaving, Qin Yao gave Chu Yang a flirtatious wink, her eyes conveying a deep meaning.
"You little brats, what business do you have to meddle in?" Tu Tian pointed at Tu Fei and the others and started cursing.
Tu Fei grinned and said, "Grandpa, with Brother Chu by my side, what's there to fear, even if we get involved in something of immense magnitude?"
Tu Tian glared at him, then waved his hand and said, "We have something to say to Chu Yang. Everyone except Ye Fan, get lost!"
The four bandit descendants scurried out, while the Golden-Winged Roc King remained motionless, standing beside Chu Yang with his spine held high, looking every bit the loyal lackey.
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, waving his hand and saying, "You should go back too!"
Golden-Winged Roc King nodded slightly, turned and left, preparing to continue refining his 108,000 swords.
This scene left the powerful figures looking on with strange expressions.
How come this arrogant and haughty descendant of the Divine Roc became so obedient to Chu Yang?
Inside the main hall, besides the five powerful figures, only Chu Yang and Ye Fan remained.
The Crimson Dragon Daoist glanced at Ye Fan, making the latter feel a little guilty, but he didn't make things difficult for Ye Fan.
The Peacock King carefully considered his words before saying, "Nephew Chu, the person who attacked the Jiang family today is not entirely alone."
"After this battle, perhaps no one will dare to make things difficult for you, but the demon race will inevitably be implicated."
"We plan to leave the Holy City and go to the Azure Dragon King. Will you come with us?"
Without a second thought, Chu Yang shook his head and said, "I won't go, but Ye Fan can go with me."
"I heard that the treasure vault of the Azure Dragon King contains the remains of a sacred body. Perhaps he can obtain some opportunities from it."
Chu Yang's words created an opportunity for Ye Fan.
Because of his influence, Ye Fan did not have much interaction with the demon race, and naturally had no opportunity to come into contact with the remains of that holy body.
After all, he had taken the Ruthless Great Emperor's things for free in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, so he was just repaying that favor at the time.
Ye Fan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The Azure Dragon King nodded and said, "That's fine. Go to my place to lay low for a while, and come back after the old God King has resolved his many matters."
Ye Fan clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and thanked everyone.
"Actually, we have something else to discuss..." Peacock King and Tu Tian exchanged a glance, then said:
"Her Highness has not yet emerged from seclusion. She previously stated that if anything were to happen in the Holy City, we should leave first, and that you would protect her."
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow slightly. This seemingly naive princess actually had a great deal of foresight in grasping the big picture.
He nodded and said, "Don't worry, seniors, I will stay in the Holy City for a while longer."
Tu Tian coughed lightly and said, "Young friend Chu, we'll also need your help looking after our few good-for-nothing descendants!"
Chu Yang sensed something was amiss. Why did these people seem to be entrusting their children to others? (End of Chapter)
