Chapter 822 Living Fossil! The Crow Taoist! Two Imperial Weapons!
A large number of cultivators gathered inside and outside Yuan City, but the only ones who came for Chu Yang were from the Yao Guang Holy Land; the rest were just there to watch the spectacle.
Even holy lands like Wan Chu Holy Land and Dayan Holy Land, which participated in the previous siege of Chu Yang but ultimately lost more than they gained, did not continue to get involved in this matter.
Because they all knew very well that they only had one chance.
Since we've already missed the opportunity, we can only give up.
Even though Chu Yang hanging his portrait high above Yuan City was a near-humiliating act, they were unwilling to get involved in this mess any further.
They dared to make their move because Jiang Taixu was distracted for a moment, hoping to catch him off guard.
If we continue to fight to the bitter end now, regardless of whether we succeed or not, we will eventually find ourselves in a dilemma.
If we fail, we could suffer heavy losses.
Even if they succeed in killing Chu Yang, they will face the revenge of an unparalleled god-king and the ancient Jiang family!
Although the old madman hadn't made a move in Yuancheng before, no one could be sure what kind of relationship he had with Chu Yang.
If he really is Chu Yang's protector and only left temporarily for other reasons, then if something happens to Chu Yang, the various holy lands will have to bear the wrath of a saint!
Each holy land only lost one or two old monsters who were about to die; this loss was not enough to make them act recklessly.
It's different from the Sacred Land of Yao Guang!
Their dragon-patterned black gold cauldron has already become Chu Yang's possession.
Losing a supreme imperial weapon is something no ancient inheritance would willingly accept.
Everyone was caught in a dilemma, but Yao Guang Holy Land had no choice but to grit their teeth and go down a dark path.
As Chu Yang and his group walked out of the city gate, the entire world instantly erupted in excitement, and terrifying auras soared into the sky.
The weakest of them all is the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm!
This time, the Yangyaoguang Holy Land has truly been pushed to the brink. They've even lost their imperial weapon. If they don't fight back desperately, they can only wait for a slow death.
When possessing imperial weapons, a holy land with the legacy of an emperor is far stronger than a holy land without such a legacy.
But once the imperial weapon is gone, their situation will be precarious, and they will become easy prey in the eyes of others.
Because although the imperial weapon is gone, the foundation from the top holy land is still there!
Without the deterrent effect of an imperial weapon, many holy lands and families would be envious. However, the Yao Guang Holy Land could still contend with a single holy land or family.
But what if multiple holy land families join forces?
What if we unleash the ultimate imperial weapon?
Therefore, this battle is a do-or-die battle for the Yao Guang Holy Land!
Success will bring great fortune, while failure will ultimately lead to destruction.
Of course, only Chu Yang knew that even if the Yao Guang Holy Land suffered a defeat, it would not truly perish.
Although there will be a period of decline and a bloody storm, the situation will be reversed in an instant once the ruthless lineage takes over the holy land.
After all, the presence of two Saint Kings was no less intimidating than that of an ultimate imperial weapon.
"So many people... they really think highly of me..."
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled. No matter how anxious the Yao Guang Holy Land was, he was, after all, just a cultivator from the Dao Palace Secret Realm.
With such a grand display, whether it succeeds or fails, Yao Guang will likely become a laughing stock.
In fact, there was no real conflict between Chu Yang and the Yao Guang Holy Land. The only one who had been competing with him all along was the Ruthless Clan.
It's truly pathetic that Yao Guang Holy Land was used as a pawn without even realizing it.
However, Chu Yang showed no mercy. Although his lineage had infiltrated the Yao Guang Holy Land, the fact that he could mobilize the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron meant that the Holy Lord's lineage must have been supporting him.
Since you've done it, you have to bear the consequences!
"Chu Yang! Return the imperial weapon, and all past grievances will be wiped clean!"
An elderly man, nearing the end of his life, stepped forward from the crowd, his cloudy old eyes fixed on Chu Yang, his voice cold and menacing.
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, sensing the terrifying aura surging from the old man. He was definitely a living fossil, already standing at the peak of the second level of immortality. If he could take another half step forward, he would become a Dao-slaying king!
He vaguely guessed the old man's identity and chuckled softly, "Wang Zheng, you've lived for three thousand years, how come you still speak so childishly?"
"If you want the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Cauldron back, you can exchange it for your Holy Son and Holy Daughter of the Yao Guang Sect!"
In fact, if Yao Guang were truly willing to exchange their Holy Sons and Daughters for the Imperial Weapon, Chu Yang wouldn't mind making a deal with them.
The Holy Son of Yaoguang is the hope of the Ruthless lineage in this generation, and also the instigator of all kinds of grudges.
If I kill him myself, it will probably disgust the entire ruthless lineage.
However, the Holy Land of Yao Guang was destined not to agree to this condition!
So many powerful figures came together, and yet they still had to offer up their holy sons and daughters in order to get the imperial weapon back? That would be incredibly humiliating.
The old man, Wang Zheng, stared blankly at Chu Yang, then frowned and asked, "Do you know me?"
Chu Yang shook his head and said calmly, "I don't know him. I've only heard that Li Daoqing had a senior brother who roamed the Eastern Wilderness three thousand years ago."
"After much thought, the strongest person the Yao Guang Holy Land can muster is you alone."
These words immediately darkened Wang Zheng's face.
What does it mean to be the only one who stands tall?
This sacred place is being described by this young man as if it were an insignificant little sect.
Moreover, this guy even dared to call the Holy Lord by his name in public, showing no respect for the strong!
"If I could annihilate a young emperor in my twilight years, my life would not have been in vain!"
Wang Zheng let out a cold shout, suddenly raised his hand, and struck out with a palm, sending out gusts of cold wind, just like the ghost lord of the nine netherworlds.
Chu Yang's eyes narrowed, and the dragon-patterned black and gold cauldron appeared in his hand, ready to be unleashed.
But at that moment, a crow's cry suddenly rang out in the sky, followed by a raging inferno, and feathers as hard as divine iron shot out.
Chu Yang was slightly taken aback, while Wang Zheng's expression changed drastically. He slapped his palm and swept it away, shattering the space and creating a black hole to block the sword-like feather.
A gaunt figure appeared before Chu Yang, draped in a black feather robe. Although it was in human form, one glance made it seem like an old crow standing there.
A hint of surprise flashed in Chu Yang's eyes. He had seen this person before, but he didn't expect him to appear here and lend a helping hand.
Crow Taoist!
When Chu Yang was in the Fire Domain, he had met him once, but at that time the Crow Daoist was focused on refining weapons, and the two of them were only watching each other with their divine sense.
Chu Yang was afraid that if the Crow Taoist made a mistake in refining the weapon, he would be blamed, so he was always on guard.
The Crow Taoist was afraid that Chu Yang would make too much noise and disturb him.
Strictly speaking, this was the first time the two had officially met.
"Crow Taoist! You're still alive!" Wang Zheng recognized Crow Taoist, and his expression turned even more unpleasant.
We are all living fossils, with similar strengths. With the Crow Taoist protecting Chu Yang today, things are going to be difficult.
"Let's attack together!" Wang Zheng suddenly shouted, and then directly attacked the Crow Taoist.
He knew that he would definitely not be able to kill Chu Yang unless he dealt with the Crow Taoist.
Therefore, he no longer intends to take action personally. Instead, he wants to stall Crow Daoist and buy time for the other powerful figures of Yao Guang Holy Land.
The Crow Taoist didn't waste any words, and didn't even communicate with Chu Yang from beginning to end, before launching a direct and ruthless attack.
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes. The Crow Taoist, the Crimson Dragon Taoist, and the Peacock King were all old friends.
The Peacock King and the Crimson Dragon Taoist, along with three great bandits, have gone off to plot something. He had assumed that the Crow Taoist would also be with them.
Unexpectedly, the other party not only did not get involved, but also rushed to the city to help after learning about his situation.
Chu Yang had no connection with the Crow Taoist; it was mostly the Peacock King and the Crimson Dragon Taoist who managed to persuade this living fossil to come.
It's even possible that the Azure Dragon King played a role in this...
The demon race of the Eastern Wilderness has always been quite united, and the older generation are all very close. Whenever anyone encounters trouble, the surviving old guys are willing to lend a hand.
Now that the three of them have entrusted him with the care of a junior, the Crow Taoist naturally won't refuse.
With this in mind, Chu Yang waved his hand, and the dragon-patterned black-gold cauldron rose up, from which black dragons soared.
However, these black dragons were not very large, resembling juveniles. From a distance, they looked more like a raging swarm of snakes than a soaring dragon.
This was entirely because Chu Yang's cultivation level was insufficient, allowing him to barely restore less than one percent of the power of this imperial weapon.
If they fall into the hands of a supreme expert, those black dragons can reach hundreds of feet in length, reaching the heavens and the earth.
"Senior, once this matter is settled, I will certainly help you take another step forward and live a second life!"
Chu Yang's voice carried a hint of arrogance, revealing his youthful spirit. The black dragon coiled around him as he charged directly towards the powerful figures in the Yao Guang Holy Land.
On the contrary, Li Heishui and Liu Kou were dumbfounded for a moment. Let alone dealing with the Yao Guang experts, even the weakest of them, the Transformation Dragon Realm cultivators, the two of them together could not defeat them!
The competition at all levels has exceeded the scope of the younger generation; only the most outstanding talents can get involved.
The two exchanged a glance and understood each other's meaning.
"What do we do?"
Just then, Black Emperor suddenly let out a howl and pulled out three sets of leather armor from somewhere.
The leather armor was engraved with intricate array patterns. Two of the sets were humanoid leather armor, while the last set was worn by the creature itself and fit perfectly.
Looking at the two stunned people, Black Emperor roared with some pain, "How come you two are even more dumbfounded than idiots?"
"Put it on! Use the source!"
"As long as there is enough source, the array patterns on these will allow you to draw upon an inexhaustible and supreme power!"
Hearing him say that, the two men exchanged glances, their eyes lit up, and then they immediately put on their leather armor and charged out while yelling wildly.
Three phantom images of demonic gods seemed to appear around Li Heishui, like ancient demonic seeds, rushing into the dragon cultivators and wreaking havoc.
Liu Kou was enveloped in holy light, and with a wave of his hand, blazing holy fire appeared.
The array patterns on their leather armor were purely offensive, with each move potentially fatal; even ordinary cultivators in the Dragon Transformation Realm would be injured upon contact.
The Black Emperor took special care of himself, his four claws treading on lightning, sweeping across with the power of rolling thunder, combining offense and defense.
However, he looked rather comical, bearing no resemblance to Thor whatsoever, more like a pet beside Thor...
Ahead, Chu Yang single-handedly blocked several powerful figures from the Yao Guang Holy Land, his dragon roars echoing endlessly.
Even with his foundation, his divine power was rapidly evaporating, so he simply refined the divine source while simultaneously controlling the imperial weapon.
But this is not a long-term solution; the longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for him.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, pondering whether or not to lend the dragon-patterned black-gold roof to the Crow Taoist.
With the strength of the Crow Daoist, as long as he wields an imperial weapon, he will definitely be able to withstand the pressure from all the Immortal Platform level beings.
Under normal circumstances, mastering an imperial weapon requires the aid of cultivation techniques to maximize its power.
However, Chu Yang had already severed everyone's connection with the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, and even the mark of the Ruthless Great Emperor had been erased.
Therefore, this imperial weapon now completely belongs to him, and the auxiliary cultivation technique is only the Divine Hundred Refinements.
For top cultivators in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, the Divine Craftsmanship is easy to learn, and Crow Daoist could learn it on the spot.
The only problem is that without the imperial weapon, Chu Yang and the two people and dog behind him will have to face all the cultivators below the Immortal Platform of the Yao Guang Holy Land.
Using the God-Slaying Sword? Or perhaps the power of a true spirit?
Just as Chu Yang was pondering this, another terrifying supreme imperial might suddenly descended.
Compared to the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron, the supreme imperial might was much stronger, clearly indicating that it was wielded by an absolute powerhouse.
Chu Yang turned his head in surprise and saw Jiang Yu in white robes, with the Hengyu Divine Furnace above his head. He flashed over in a few steps.
Two Imperial Weapons! A living fossil!
With such a lineup, it would be more than enough to not only send out the entire Yao Guang Holy Land, but also to directly attack the Holy Land's gate!
"The Divine King Ancestor has decreed! The Jiang family has received a great favor from young friend Chu; killing you is as good as killing him!"
Jiang Yun's voice boomed out, silencing the entire world.
All the cultivators trembled, and the people from the Yao Guang Holy Land turned pale.
I thought that Jiang Taixu had already done the greatest possible help by detaining Li Daoqing in the Holy City.
But no one expected that the old God King would actually send his descendant with an imperial weapon!
He was telling the entire Eastern Wilderness that even though his lifespan was nearing its end, no one could touch Chu Yang, even without his current backing!
"Aren't you going to make a move?!" Wang Zheng suddenly shouted, though it was unclear who he was addressing.
Chu Yang's eyes narrowed slightly. He raised his hand and tossed the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron to the Crow Daoist, while simultaneously transmitting the method of controlling objects.
Crow Daoist's eyes lit up. After taking the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron, he held the imperial weapon in one hand and dealt with Wang Zheng with the other, while quickly digesting the content of Chu Yang's voice transmission.
As his mastery and understanding of the art of manipulating objects deepened, the supreme divine power of the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron rapidly revived.
Just then, a figure in hemp clothing suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Yun. Before the person even arrived, the sound of wind breaking through the air could be heard.
The void was cleaved open, and a faint light shot straight towards Jiang Yun's brow!
Jiang Yun felt a chill run through his body instantly, realizing the terrifying strength of the newcomer. He frantically activated the Hengyu Scripture, manipulating the imperial weapon to defend himself, but he was half a step too slow.
However, at that moment, a bronze furnace blocked Jiang Yun's path.
"when!!!"
If the sound, like the tolling of bells, echoed in the sky, then the bronze furnace would crumble into pieces.
The black light did not diminish in momentum, but as the bronze furnace exploded, terrifying bloodthirsty power spread out, and incomparably sharp sword energy swept across, once again hindering the black light for a moment.
This moment finally bought Jiang Yun enough time, and he condensed the crimson-gold divine fire into a shield, blocking in front of him.
"bite!!"
The eerie light exploded, but the man in hemp clothing did not stop. He raised the black thorn in his hand again and struck once more!
"Arrogant!!"
Jiang Yun was also enraged. He had almost been killed by the opponent just now, and seeing that the man in hemp clothing still wanted to get close and fight the Supreme Emperor Weapon head-on, he directly mobilized the Supreme Divine Might to the maximum extent! (End of this chapter)
