"Rest assured, Your Majesty, I haven't even laid a hair on any of these people's heads!"
"This junior does not possess the dual cultivation method of Senior War Emperor, and would never dare to indulge in the gentle embrace of women!" Chu Yang twitched the corner of his mouth, speechless at the idea of offering a woman right off the bat.
Seeing his lack of interest, the Western Heaven War Emperor changed the subject, smiling as he asked, "King Chu, did you come here this time because of the demonic wind?"
The last time they met, he addressed Chu Yang as a brother, but this time he consistently referred to him as "King Chu," showing no sign of disrespect.
Chu Yang shook his head and said, "Senior, you misunderstand. The ten-year period is still far away. How could I go back on my word?"
"However, I do have a favor to ask of you, senior..."
Upon hearing his words, the Western Heaven War Emperor's eyes lit up slightly.
Do they need my help?
This is a good thing!
Making Chu Yang owe him a favor might prove to be a lifesaver in times of crisis.
With this in mind, the Western Heaven War Emperor said without hesitation, "King Chu, you're too kind. We've been through thick and thin together. Just tell me what's on your mind!"
"If it's within my power, I certainly won't refuse!"
Chu Yang didn't stand on ceremony and said directly, "I recently broke through to the Heavenly Sovereign realm and learned some news..."
"It is said that if a Heavenly Sovereign is stationed on a continent, the power of the continent can be gathered."
"The cultivation technique I practice urgently needs the power of the mainland. I wonder if you, senior, would be willing to part with it?"
The Western Heaven War Emperor's eyes narrowed; Chu Yang's words revealed two key pieces of information.
Firstly, he has already broken through to the Heavenly Supreme level!
The Western Heaven War Emperor knew that when Chu Yang had just returned from the Sacred Abyss, he was still only at the Great Perfection of the Earthly Sovereign realm.
If someone at the Great Perfection of Earthly Sovereign level can kill a late-stage Immortal Saint, how terrifying will their strength be now that they have reached the Heavenly Sovereign level?
The second key piece of information is that Chu Yang is determined to obtain the power of the continent!
The word "urgently needed" already makes its stance clear.
The Western Heaven War Emperor understood that Chu Yang had first flexed his muscles and then given a clear stance, leaving him no room to refuse.
They gave us a heads-up beforehand and didn't try to take it by force; that's already giving them a lot of face.
If one doesn't know what's good for them, they will undoubtedly squander all the good karma they've built up.
The Western Heaven War Emperor gave a wry smile and said, "It seems that the King of Chu did his homework before coming here!"
"I originally planned to hold the competition for the Sons of the Continent three years later to select some promising talents to receive the baptism of the power of the continent..."
Given the size of the Western Heaven Continent, it would take several hundred years to accumulate the continent's power to its peak.
His words were a strategic retreat, clearly telling Chu Yang that giving him the power of the continent would disrupt his original plans.
Moreover, with the Western Heaven Continent as the center, countless powerful figures in the surrounding areas are eyeing the spot for the Chosen of the Continent.
The baptism of the continent's power can increase the success rate of an Earth Supreme breaking through to Heaven Supreme, and this alone is enough to drive countless powerful individuals crazy.
Many factions even joined the Western Heaven Battle Hall because of this.
Everyone was eagerly anticipating the competition for the Son of the Mainland, but it was suddenly canceled, which naturally caused dissatisfaction.
Even if the Western Heaven War Emperor was wary of Chu Yang, he couldn't possibly give up the opportunity to cultivate a Heavenly Supreme and lose some people's hearts just because of a single sentence from the other party.
Chu Yang naturally understood his subtext and said with a smile, "As long as senior agrees, this matter will be considered a favor owed to me by junior."
As he spoke, he took out a wooden plaque and gently placed it on the table.
"No matter what happens in the future, as long as you crush this wooden plaque, I will arrive immediately and ensure your safety."
Chu Yang's meaning was also very clear: you give me the power of the continent, and I will save your life in the future!
The Western Heaven War Emperor's eyes flickered. If Chu Yang had said these words in the past, he would have thought that the other party was talking nonsense.
But now that Chu Yang's cultivation has reached the Heavenly Sovereign level, his strength is likely to rival that of a Saint-grade cultivator, and at this rate of growth, he will only become stronger in the future.
Therefore, the phrase "able to protect one's life under any circumstances" deeply moved the Western Heaven War Emperor.
The Western Heaven War Emperor pretended to think for a moment with difficulty, then gritted his teeth and said, "Since the King of Chu urgently needs the power of the continent, then I will certainly grant his request!"
"However... I have a small request, and I hope the King of Chu will grant it."
As he spoke, the Western Heaven War Emperor discreetly put away the wooden plaque.
During this meeting, he never referred to himself as "this emperor," and every detail revealed his fear of Chu Yang.
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow. "Please speak freely, senior."
The Western Heaven War Emperor chuckled dryly and said, "If we directly cancel the competition for the Son of the Continent, I'm afraid many people below will be dissatisfied."
"I want to announce to the public that the King of Chu suffered some injuries abroad and needs the power of the mainland to treat them, using the King of Chu's name to stabilize public sentiment..."
The Western War Emperor was very sincere and didn't beat around the bush. Chu Yang had once turned the tide on the western border and had done a great favor for the entire western region of the Great Thousand World.
Bringing him out would naturally dispel any remaining discontent among the forces under the Western Heaven Battle Hall.
Chu Yang waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's alright! I'll leave it all to Senior War Emperor!"
"It just so happens that I recently wiped out an extraterrestrial race in a lower plane, so it's only natural that I suffered some injuries..."
The Western Heaven War Emperor's pupils contracted, and his expression changed again.
Good guy!
How long has it been since they returned from overseas?
No wonder they disappeared for over a year; it turns out they went to a lower plane and wiped out an extraterrestrial race!
The Western Heaven War Emperor was also a shrewd man, and naturally he knew the intention behind Chu Yang's words. He clearly wanted Chu Yang to help spread the word about this matter.
Thus, the two sides reached a tacit consensus and chatted warmly again, enjoying drinks and conversation.
During this time, the Western Heaven War Emperor also summoned several concubines, who danced gracefully in the main hall.
It wasn't until after several rounds of drinks, and seeing that Chu Yang was somewhat losing interest, that the Western Heaven War Emperor took the initiative to speak:
"The King of Chu once said that he urgently needs the power of the continent to cultivate his techniques. Why don't I take you there now?"
Chu Yang had been waiting for these words, and said with a smile, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior!" (End of Chapter)
Chapter 413 Sixfold Spirit Ascension Technique! True Spirit Takes Form! Visitor from the Northern Wilderness!
Deep underground in the Western Continent.
Amidst a chaotic, luminous light, the Western Heaven War Emperor was somewhat surprised to see Chu Yang's calm expression.
This guy looks...
It doesn't seem like this is the first time they've encountered the power of the mainland.
Could it be that he had already visited the Supreme Being many days before coming to find him?
Strictly speaking, this was the third time Chu Yang had felt the power of the continent.
The first time was in the Holy Sun Realm, where he found the place of the Plane Spirit, which was the gathering place of the power of the Sheng Yang Continent.
However, the Holy Sun Realm is a lower plane, and without a Heavenly Sovereign to oversee it, the power of the continent is extremely mixed.
Purifying and condensing it would take a long time, which would be a thankless task for Chu Yang.
The second time he felt the power of the continent was at the bottom of the Luo River, but since he wanted the Western Heaven War Emperor to work for him, he did not seize it by force.
In truth, the Western Heaven War Emperor thought he had made a fortune, using the power of the continent to obtain a life-saving token and using Chu Yang's name to eliminate the negative impact.
But in reality, all of this was part of Chu Yang's plan.
One day, the so-called life-saving token may become the very opportunity that binds the Western Heaven War Emperor completely to the Great Xia Dynasty...
"This is where the power of the Western Continent converges. Does Your Majesty need my help to guide it?"
The Western Heaven War Emperor looked at Chu Yang with a gentle smile.
Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "No need for such trouble, Senior War Emperor, please go ahead and do your work!"
Although the Western Heaven War Emperor wanted to see the technique Chu Yang had mentioned, he didn't say anything more since Chu Yang had already given him the order to leave.
But as soon as he returned to his palace, he suddenly realized something.
This is clearly their own territory, so why is Chu Yang acting like the guest and issuing an order to leave?
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that ever since meeting Chu Yang this time, I've always had the feeling that he's leading me by the nose.
This feeling made the Western Heaven War Emperor realize that something was wrong, but he recalled all the conversations he had with Chu Yang today and couldn't find any problems.
…………
Deep underground, Chu Yang summoned the Four Sacred Spirits and began to circulate the Spirit Ascension Technique, frantically absorbing the power of the continent.
In just one month, the power of this continent was completely absorbed by the Four Holy Spirits.
The Ascension Technique has finally broken through to the sixth level, but the progress bar for the sixth evolution of the Four Sacred Spirits has only advanced to ten percent.
Chu Yang roughly estimated that to reach the sixth level of the Ascension Technique, he would need to absorb the power of at least ten continents that were no less powerful than the Western Heaven Continent.
