Chapter 32, The Imperial Weapon and the God Awaken! [Please Read On!]
"This is a primordial Dao embryo!"
The fairy of Yaochi softly uttered these six words.
Her fellow disciples behind her all stopped and whispered among themselves.
The more we talked, the more alarmed I became.
If the owner of this aura is still alive...
That would place her alongside the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion as one of the twin Dao beings of this era.
One yin and one yang, two primordial beings born together!
This has never happened before in the history of BeiDou.
The leading fairy immediately took out a communication jade pendant, imprinted the aura of this place along with brief information into it, and used the secret method of Yaochi to send it back to the holy land.
The jade pendant transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.
She withdrew her hand, glanced back at her fellow disciples, and lowered her voice to a whisper.
"This matter will not be disclosed to outsiders for the time being."
"If another force finds this person first, it will be detrimental to Yaochi."
More than ten figures in white robes drifted away as if they had never been there.
But a hidden piece has already quietly fallen into the chessboard of the top Beidou forces.
The ruins finally fell silent.
Both Yao Guang and the Ji family left behind several disciples to continue searching for any missing items, while their main forces withdrew.
The rogue cultivators who had been lying on the ground got up one after another. Some clutched their chests and staggered away, while others squatted in the pile of rubble, picking up the scraps left behind by the major powers.
But something truly terrifying is spreading silently.
Several independent cultivators gathered together, their voices lowered than the wind.
"The Daoist scripture, the Sea of Wheels chapter... is in the hands of that human cultivator..."
"The Emperor's heart also rests on him..."
"He left with the demon princess..."
"A rogue cultivator... at the second level of the Dao Palace... possessing the Emperor's Heart and the Wheel Sea Chapter of the Dao Scripture..."
Every husband is not guilty, and he is guilty of his crime.
Moreover, this "commoner" doesn't even have a decent backer.
The last vestige of imperial might above the ruins finally dissipated.
The void passage opened by the Azure Emperor's weapon brought Su Ye and the others to the depths of a secluded valley.
This place is now an unknown distance from the State of Yan.
Su Ye looked around and saw a secret realm unfolding amidst the surrounding mountains, enveloped by the natural terrain.
In the distance, there was a field of medicinal herbs, with at least a hundred old herbs swaying in the breeze.
The sky above was not a real dome, but a semi-transparent barrier that completely separated the entire secret realm from the desolate mountains outside.
Several small houses built of spirit wood are scattered on the mountainside, without any luxurious decorations.
However, each piece of wood was engraved with ancient demonic incantations, emanating subtle array fluctuations.
It's clear they've been staying here for quite some time.
Su Ye withdrew his gaze, having already made his judgment.
The place is small, but it is managed very well.
Yan Ruyu turned around and her gaze fell on Su Ye.
There's no need to use divine sense to investigate; the sensation of that wisp of imperial blood within the body is enough.
The Emperor's heart beat steadily and full of vitality in this person's sea of suffering, and the connection between them was even clearer than when they were in the ancient palace.
It was so clear it startled her.
After Emperor Heart left the Azure Emperor's Tomb, it did not weaken due to the loss of nourishment; on the contrary, it became more active than before.
This is completely unreasonable.
She remained silent for a long time before finally getting up and walking to Su Ye.
"Fellow Daoist Su... is the Emperor's Heart with you?"
Su Ye met Yan Ruyu's gaze, nodded, and replied frankly, "Not bad."
"The Emperor's heart chooses its own master, and I have entered into this sea of suffering; it is not something I, Su, have forcibly taken."
The elderly woman surnamed Li on the right could no longer contain herself.
She possessed the cultivation level of the Fourth Heaven of the Four Extremes and had served under Yan Ruyu for many years. Her loyalty to the Azure Emperor's bloodline was etched into her very bones.
The Emperor's Heart is a sacred object of the demon race, a legacy left to future generations by the Azure Emperor. How could it fall into the hands of a rogue cultivator from another race?
She took a step forward, and the aura of the Four Extremes Secret Realm unconsciously leaked out.
"The Emperor's Heart is a sacred object of my demon race; please return it, young friend!"
His voice was low and deep, carrying a hint of suppressed malice.
Qin Yao also looked at Su Ye nervously.
She had a slight liking for the boy, but it was impossible for her to stand against His Highness.
The air in the valley tightened.
Su Ye remained silent.
His blue and white Taoist robe fluttered slightly from the aura, but his face remained calm.
Yan Ruyu did not speak immediately; her mind was elsewhere at the moment.
She could sense it.
The Emperor's heart was unusually at peace amidst Su Ye's sea of suffering.
It's unbelievably peaceful.
Something's not right...
The Emperor's Heart is a remnant of the Great Emperor. Even if the laws of the Emperor's Way and the Emperor's evil aura are removed, its essence still transcends the mortal realm.
Ordinary cultivators, let alone bear it, would have their bodies crushed by the Emperor's might just by getting close.
But Su Ye not only carried the Emperor's Heart within him, but it also behaved itself as if it had returned home.
Furthermore, that page of the Daoist scriptures chooses its master, and the Emperor's heart also chooses its master...
How many people in the entire Big Dipper can be found who can simultaneously command two supreme treasures to recognize them as their master?
This is something that a Dao Palace cultivator could not achieve through their own inherent abilities.
Yan Ruyu suddenly realized something: the secrets this person held were probably far greater than she had initially judged.
The innate Dao embryo was just the tip of the iceberg that Su Ye was willing to let her see; the part beneath the surface was completely unfathomable to her.
Just then.
The chaotic blue lotus deep within her sea of suffering trembled slightly.
Yan Ruyu's pupils suddenly contracted.
The imperial weapons and deities have awakened on their own initiative.
Since reclaiming the Chaos Lotus, the deity has been in a deep slumber.
It was the ultimate weapon that accompanied the Azure Emperor in his conquest of the universe and suppressed an era.
At this moment, however, a human rogue cultivator voluntarily awakened a wisp of his divine consciousness.
A wisp of the will of the Emperor's Weapon God entered Yan Ruyu's sea of consciousness.
Extremely short.
Minimalist.
There are no words, and not even a clear meaning.
It's more like a feeling, a sense of acceptance.
Like an elder who has been asleep for thousands of years, sensing something in a half-dreaming, half-awake state, he softly hummed in acknowledgment and then fell into a deep sleep again.
Yan Ruyu's fingertips trembled slightly inside her sleeve.
She dared not think about what this meant.
She tried her best to maintain her composure, but her fingertips were trembling slightly.
Yan Ruyu took a deep breath.
The turbulent waves surging in my heart were gradually pushed back into the depths.
She raised her hand, stopping the old woman who was about to press the matter further.
"Step back."
Two words, but the old woman sensed the weight in his tone, paused for a moment, and bowed her head to retreat behind Yan Ruyu.
Yan Ruyu looked at Su Ye.
Her gaze no longer held hesitation, but instead held a complex mix of awe and reverence.
"The emperor's heart of our ancestors chose his fellow practitioners, which was also a matter of fate and destiny."
Her voice regained its usual ethereal and cool quality.
"But... it is ultimately a sacred artifact of our ancestors, and it concerns the fate of the demon race."
"I hope that you will use it wisely and not disgrace it."
The valley fell silent for a moment.
Qin Yao opened her eyes wide, her delicate face displaying a complex mix of emotions.
The two elderly women looked completely astonished.
Your Highness has conceded so easily?
Su Ye clasped his hands in a solemn gesture, his expression more serious than ever before.
"I've noted it down."
"If Your Highness ever needs it, I will not refuse to return it; I will naturally return it to Your Highness at that time."
Yan Ruyu looked into his eyes, nodded gently, and said softly, "That's good."
"Fellow Daoist Su, you may stay here for a while."
"Qin Yao, take Fellow Daoist Su down to rest."
"Yes." Qin Yao nodded gently.
She didn't ask anything more.
The will of the Emperor's weapon deity, the Emperor's heart's active choice of master.
These things combined were enough for her to make a judgment.
This person should not be offended easily.
It's even... worth betting on.
Yan Ruyu said no more and turned to walk towards the small house halfway up the mountain.
The two old women remained where they were, and one of them moved her lips.
In the end, he didn't say anything, just sighed heavily and followed.
Qin Yao glanced at Su Ye, her eyes filled with a relieved look and an undisguised curiosity.
"Young Master Su, please follow me."
As she spoke, she turned and led the way for Su Ye.
Su Ye followed, finding Qin Yao swaying her slender waist in front of him a delightful sight.
