Chapter 817 Leaving the Holy City! Imperial Weapons Appear! Intending to Kill Chu Yang!
Chapter 817 Leaving the Holy City! Imperial Weapons Appear! Intending to Kill Chu Yang!
The three powerful demon clan members and the two notorious bandits from the Northern Region, combined, could even rival a sacred land.
But the five of them entrusted their descendants to Chu Yang as if they were entrusting their orphans to a caretaker.
Chu Yang didn't think that the five of them would do anything they knew would lead to their deaths, since at this level, they all valued their lives very much.
Surely you can't try every means to prolong your life on the one hand, and then go on crazy suicide attempts on the other, right?
But without a doubt, they are going to do something crazy, and it carries a certain degree of risk.
It may not endanger their own lives, but if things escalate, it will affect their younger generations.
In particular, the three Peacock Kings kept Yan Ruyu behind, clearly because they felt that this matter might affect the entire demon race.
Only by keeping Yan Ruyu by Chu Yang's side can they be completely at ease.
But Chu Yang couldn't think of anything else besides Purple Mountain that would be worth the five top experts taking the risk at this critical juncture.
However, he didn't ask any further questions, as everyone has their own destiny.
After parting ways with the powerful figures, Chu Yang did not continue his seclusion. Instead, he visited various stone workshops and then left the Holy City.
It has to be said that all the major stone workshops are now terrified of Chu Yang and Ye Fan, and have hidden away their most prized possessions.
This makes it very difficult to encounter any rare treasures other than the source.
Chu Yang's biggest regret was that he failed to obtain the Supreme Immortal Gold.
Although they possess a great deal of divine iron, most of it can only be used to forge stars. To further enhance the Seven-Colored Sun, they still need to rely on celestial gold.
Since the various stone workshops were intentionally hoarding their own goods, he couldn't very well just forcibly rob them.
Immortal Gold can not only be cut from stone, Chu Yang has other methods, and he plans to take the opportunity to return to the Southern Region and then go to the Fire Region.
There have been people closely monitoring the situation at the demon clan's palace.
Just like when the Dark Night King and other powerful figures went to kill the Old God King, they wouldn't have been in such a hurry to make a move. It was only after learning that Chu Yang had gone to the Dragon Transformation Pool that they moved up their plans.
The young emperor of Chu was too famous, and he was also a master of source arts. Moreover, he did not cut stones in public, so no one knew how many treasures he had.
This is only because Ye Fan's identity has not been exposed; otherwise, the other party would probably be even more anxious.
This also surprised Chu Yang, because in the original plot, the fact that Gu Feng was the Ancient Sacred Body was revealed first, and then the series of confrontations in the Dragon Transformation Pool occurred.
Because of Chu Yang's influence, many things have been brought forward, and it's estimated that Ye Fan hasn't had a chance to be exposed yet.
Chu Yang's departure surprised everyone in the Holy City, and the major forces in the Eastern Wilderness were even more eager to make a move.
As I said before, most of the people who attacked and killed the old God King had powerful connections behind them. Although they were destined to die, those who were connected with them would definitely remember this hatred.
If they dare not seek revenge against the old God King, nor against the Jiang family, why wouldn't they dare to confront Chu Yang, who is "isolated and helpless"?
Whether it's the Holy Land Family or some other people with ulterior motives, they are all eager to confirm two things.
One question is whether the old madman is Chu Yang's protector.
Another question is whether Chu Yang can still use the power from his previous life.
If these two issues are not clarified, the various holy leaders will probably not be able to sleep soundly.
Of course, testing means paying a price, a price of life and blood!
Therefore, no one will act rashly, but there will also be people who knowingly choose to die even though it is impossible!
Ancient clans and holy lands have long histories and profound foundations, making it extremely easy for them to find a few old monsters whose lifespans are nearing their end and who cannot be extended.
Just like when Ye Fan exposed the Bronze Immortal Palace to the men and women, didn't a lot of old monsters suddenly appear, all wanting to make one last gamble and seek a new life in the Bronze Immortal Palace?
How could those people not know that they would never return, and that their hopes were extremely slim?
But if they don't take this chance, they'll just die somewhere, returning to dust. They might as well give it a shot.
With the turmoil at the Bronze Immortal Palace over, and the Demon Emperor's Tomb and Purple Mountain now inaccessible, the old monsters from the Holy Land families, unable to prolong their lives, will surely be willing to burn their last embers.
Therefore, Chu Yang's departure from the Holy City made many people who were close to him secretly sweat with anxiety.
Outsiders are unaware of the truth about the power of past lives and the saintly protectors, and they are equally ignorant of it.
But putting everything else aside, the fact that Chu Yang was able to leave the Holy City is enough to give people pause for thought.
You should know that the Constellation Holy City is now completely shrouded and sealed off by the might of the Hengyu Divine Furnace. Even the thirteen Holy Lords, the three old monsters, and the Dark Night King are unable to escape.
But Chu Yang walked out of the Holy City in a very open and unassuming manner, as if the power of the Supreme Emperor Weapon had no effect on him whatsoever.
Many people witnessed that scene, and their imaginations began to run wild.
Some say that the old God King helped Chu Yang open a door. Although the outside world is unaware of the three gifts Chu Yang gave, this young emperor Chu truly contributed to the matter of the old God King.
Without his intervention, and with the help of the old madman as a protector, he repelled thirteen Saint Lord-level figures and three old monsters, the resurrection of the old God King would likely have been interrupted.
Some say that the old madman forcibly opened a door for Chu Yang, but most people think this explanation is a bit far-fetched.
The mad old man is indeed terrifying, but he is mostly just a saint and cannot directly confront the fully revived supreme imperial weapon.
The problem is, these are just theoretical discussions; who really knows how powerful a sage is?
I'm afraid even the holy lords of the major holy lands don't have a precise concept of this.
Moreover, the old madman is a figure who has lived for six thousand years. He was a great man six thousand years ago, and after six thousand years, he has reached the pinnacle of his abilities. His strength is probably even more terrifying than that of an ordinary saint.
The last theory is that Chu Yang was originally a young emperor, and even without the power of his previous life, he could disregard imperial authority.
However, everyone felt that this claim was somewhat outrageous...
As for the truth, only Chu Yang knows the answer.
Jiang Taixu knew he hadn't helped, but he felt that the mad old man was capable of it, though he wasn't entirely sure.
The old madman's current state is rather special; he retains only a portion of his consciousness, seemingly undergoing some kind of transformation.
In fact, Chu Yang did not use his true spiritual power. He only released a wisp of aura from the God-Slaying Sword, which forcibly broke the seal of the Hengyu Divine Furnace.
After leaving the Holy City, Chu Yang did not rush to traverse the void. Instead, he walked on foot like an ascetic monk, comprehending the Emperor Scripture he had just obtained.
After Jiang Taixu returned to his peak, Chu Yang obtained the Hengyu Scripture Four Extremes Scroll from him.
The Four Extremes Scroll of the Hengyu Scripture is the strongest cultivation technique in the Four Extremes Secret Realm. Chu Yang already has enough divine source to cultivate the Dao Palace Secret Realm to perfection, so he naturally needs to prepare this Four Extremes cultivation technique in advance.
Without any hesitation, the old god-king gave Chu Yang the Four Extremes Scroll after hearing his telepathic message.
It should be noted that at that time, the old God King was still fighting against the Dark Night King. He was suppressing a Great Completion King Body while also teaching the Emperor Scripture, which shows how terrifying his strength was.
Chu Yang's slowing down made him even more unpredictable to the various powerful figures.
Although the Holy City was sealed off, news could still be transmitted, as each holy land and noble family possessed its own unique secret techniques.
So even though the people inside can't get out, there are still many people "staking out" outside.
These people dared not move an inch, fearing that Chu Yang was "fishing" them and that they would be forcefully suppressed as soon as they set foot on the road.
He walked for seven days, covering a hundred miles, before finally stopping.
Chu Yang looked up at the sun in the sky, his deep eyes seeming to hold the Dao, and the sound of the Great Dao resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
This scene completely stunned everyone in the shadows, who couldn't understand what Chu Yang had done to elicit such an astonishing sound of the Great Dao.
Immediately afterwards, they saw Chu Yang take out the Void Array Plate, activate the array patterns, and traverse the void.
They're leaving already?
Could it be that they ran away?
Was he just bluffing all along?
Now the turmoil in the Holy City has settled down. The Dark Night King, the three old monsters, and the thirteen Saint Lord-level figures were all killed by the Old God King.
And all of this happened in just one night.
The terror of the peerless god-king has once again refreshed everyone's understanding.
This made those in the shadows even more eager to test Chu Yang, because the old God King was still in the Holy City, waiting for the Holy Lords of various Holy Lands and Families to come and offer their congratulations.
It is said that he also wanted to help the Holy Body reconnect the broken path and forcibly break through the four extreme barriers.
In that case, he might not be able to get away for a while.
If we don't take this opportunity to attack Chu Yang, we'll miss our chance once the old God King has time to deal with him!
The peerless god-king was famous throughout the Eastern Wilderness four thousand years ago, and his character was absolutely impeccable. How could he possibly stand by and watch Chu Yang, who indirectly saved his life, die?
As a result, those powerful figures hidden in the shadows used their methods to deduce the endpoint of the void array patterns and then all chased after it.
Chu Yang knew that someone was following him and he understood what these people were planning, but he did not try to hide his tracks. He simply continued to traverse the void with a clear objective.
Primordial Ancient Mine!
Finding immortal gold in this world is too difficult. The most time-saving and labor-saving way is to "dig" it out from the Primordial Ancient Mine.
Those following behind are just clowns; the real powerhouses haven't shown themselves yet!
On the boundless reddish-brown land, Chu Yang looked at a solitary city standing in the distance and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Yuancheng, in this barren area, is the only city outside the Primordial Ancient Mine.
Because Yuancheng is located within the Yuanmining area, there are no ordinary people here. The city is full of cultivators, and those who do appear are mostly disciples of major forces, as well as some people responsible for transporting Yuanmining.
Of course, although it is said to be the only city outside the Primordial Ancient Mine, in reality, Yuan City is still very far from the ancient mine, more than 30,000 li away.
Otherwise, the people in the city wouldn't dare to move around here.
Upon arriving, Chu Yang was not in a hurry to enter the Primordial Ancient Mine. Instead, he settled down in Yuan City and strolled around as if he were on a tourist trip.
If someone really wants to make a move against him, this is his last chance!
Because if we go any further, unless the person making the move is confident that they can suppress him instantly, he might escape into the Primordial Ancient Mine.
He dared to go in, but no one else dared to follow.
So Chu Yang was waiting, or you could say he was waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump.
He was indeed fishing, because he also wanted to see who wanted to deal with him and who wanted to kill him.
The many grudges in the Southern Region have been largely settled, and the thirteenth ancestor of the Jiang family dares not cause any more trouble.
Therefore, apart from the ruthless lineage, Chu Yang was completely clueless about his hidden enemies.
There's no such thing as being a thief for a thousand days but not being able to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Even if he has something to rely on and is fearless, he still needs to figure out who the enemy is.
In the future, when it comes to retaliation and reckoning, the targets will be clear.
Before leaving the Holy City, Chu Yang released a wisp of his true spiritual will, sensing that the old madman had already left after making his move that night.
After all, Wei Yi is still in the Holy City, as is the resurrected Old God King. Who could possibly harm him?
But no one expected that before the storm had even subsided, Chu Yang had already left the Holy City alone.
If it were within his power, Wei Yi would certainly be willing to protect him, but compared to that, protecting the Tianxuan Ruins was clearly more important.
Therefore, Wei Yi couldn't have come out with them, Jiang Taixu was in the Holy City, and the old madman was nowhere to be found. In a sense...
Chu Yang is indeed isolated and helpless now!
He wandered around the city for three days. The streets were full of shops selling Originium, since it was adjacent to the Primordial Ancient Mine, so it could be considered a local specialty...
However, Chu Yang did not make a purchase, because the raw stones here were ridiculously expensive. Those unscrupulous bosses, using the gimmick of "being imbued with primordial immortal energy," even dared to sell ordinary stones.
And it sold for an astronomical price!
In their words...
"These were all dug out from inside the restricted area!"
The source stone business here is truly a case of "three years without business, then three years of profit when it opens."
They can't fool those who know what they're doing; they only prey on those who are clueless.
After all, the rare stones that might actually contain priceless treasures have already been snapped up by the major holy lands and aristocratic families.
Of course, with such a large number of cases, there will always be some hidden gems.
However, compared to its high price, even if you cut out rare treasures, you really can't make much money.
It wasn't until the fourth day that Chu Yang's leisurely days were finally broken!
An extremely terrifying aura suddenly descended, instantly enveloping the entire Origin City!
Some of the disciples from the holy land families witnessed the turmoil in the holy city before coming to Yuan City.
So when they sensed this aura, they were immediately dumbfounded.
Because it’s so familiar!
The situation was exactly the same when the Jiang family used the Hengyu Divine Furnace to seal off the entire Holy City!
Ultimate Imperial Weapon!
It turns out that an unparalleled figure has arrived, carrying an ultimate imperial weapon!
Was it for the sake of the young emperor of Chu?
This was the subconscious guess in the minds of all cultivators, because Chu Yang had been followed by people all the way, so his whereabouts were not a secret.
Most cultivators in the Northern Region knew that the young emperor Chu had settled in Yuan City, seemingly intending to explore the Primordial Ancient Mine!
No one knew about Chu Yang's entry into the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land back then, but now that he wants to enter the Primordial Ancient Mine, it has become common knowledge.
In the eyes of many, this young man, the reincarnation of an emperor, has finally begun to step into the forbidden zone of life!
But no one expected that someone would come with an ultimate imperial weapon, attempting to suppress and kill Chu Yang outside the forbidden zone!
Who exactly is it? And what force is behind it?
Is this person insane?!?
Even if they could kill Chu Yang, wouldn't the other party be afraid of retaliation from the Old Madman and the Old God King?
An old monster who has lived for six thousand years and has reached the pinnacle of enlightenment, approaching the realm of sainthood; and a peerless god-king who achieved unparalleled feats four thousand years ago and whose divine power has been restored…
No one could withstand the wrath of these two! (End of Chapter)
