Half an hour later, the dust had settled.
The Human Emperor gathered his Xuanhuang Emperor Qi, allowing it to converge into a flamboyant lid above his head, and looked at the wide-eyed battle body in front of him, saying softly, “You have been defeated.”
“I am defeated,” the Great Witch Priest’s voice was as low as a mosquito’s voice, “but you — will not last long either ——”
As soon as the words were finished, his body dispersed into a grey mist that went out with the wind.
The Great Witch Priest of the Southern Border has fallen.
“Human Emperor.”
Mak Cang Sheng and Yan Luo Tian Zi came forward to pay their respects.
Mu Cang Sheng said, “Congratulations to the Human Emperor for awakening the eighth elemental spirit, it is not far from the time when the nine emperors will be united.”
“It’s too early,” said the Human Emperor, shaking his head, “I had intended to use the Earth Mother Root Xuanhuang Qi under the Turbid Fury Pond to awaken the first Human Emperor, but the times have changed and I was not able to use it to awaken the first Human Emperor after all.”
Even the Human Emperor had never expected that the battlefield would be broken by someone below the Dao Realm, and even faced the chance of life and death. That sword of the Supreme Dao Lord at the beginning could be considered to have completely disrupted the plans of the Human Emperor.
“Human Emperor, the Daoist Lord of the Supreme Being sought out King Qin Guang and the others in the Eastern State, saying that he wanted to ally with us, how do you see how to respond to him?” Yan Luo Tian Zi stepped forward and said.
“Lord Tai Shang Dao, this man has a strong heart for the Dao, and he will do anything that is beneficial to the attainment of the Dao. If he proposes an alliance, it will be because the other side has grown to a point where he feels he can hardly cope.” The Human Emperor said.
“What the Human Emperor means is ——”
Mu Cang Sheng showed a deep thoughtful look on his face, “After Qing Yu’s trip to the East, is his strength already such that even the Supreme Daoist Lord does not dare to deal with him head-on?”
“Whether it is or not, I will not ally with it. If he were to win, he would be allowed to ascend to the Dao Realm, giving the world an additional spokesperson of the Dao who thinks he is the spokesperson of the Dao Realm, and then the only thing that would happen to the Dragon Lineage of the Human Dao would be scattered.” The Human Emperor a*serted.
He had never forgotten that today’s human dao and the heavenly dao were at odds. If the limit of the human gods was broken, it would be fine, and with the unity of the nine emperors, he could immediately ascend to the dao realm, but if the Supreme Lord of the Dao finally broke the robbery ——
If he is a Dao realm and has the power of the Heavenly Dao, even if he has the power of the humane dragon vein which is comparable to that of the Dao realm, he will not be able to compete with him.
The world will then return to the primitive era when all kinds of frosty skies competed for freedom.
At that time, there would be no nine human emperors to sacrifice themselves to shape the dragon veins. Even if there were, the Supreme Daoist Lord could break up the dragon veins again.
“Then how should we act?” Mu Cansheng asked.
“For the time being, we should make a show of confronting the Northern Zhou and seek the time to allow the Primordial Human Emperor to awaken. The Primordial Human Emperor has a way to solve the problem of Qing Yu and the Heavenly Dao.” The Human Emperor said.
“What method is it?”
“The Jedi Heavenly Pa*sage, which cuts off the Heavenly Dao’s interference in the world and the chance of the Dao Realm. At that time, we will only need to kill Qing Yu and the others.” A look of determination flashed across the eyes of the Human Emperor.
————————
Northern Zhou, the divine capital.
A man in strong clothing and carrying a large bow looked at the shattered fate token in his hand with a disappointed look on his face, “The Great Witch Sacrifice, after all, has gone.”
Hou Huai murmured in a low voice, unable to hide the sadness in his gaze.
The fate token had a fragmented spirit of the Great Witch Sacrifice attached to it, and if the token was broken, the person would die. At this moment, the Great Witch Sacrifice should have already been defeated and disappeared between heaven and earth. Eighth Book Library
When he thought of this, Hou Huai tightened the bow on his body and revealed a look of determination.
The Great Witch Sacrifice had actually long been surprised by the slow reaction of the Great Qian people. Even if there was an eastern kingdom pressing down on them, they should not have disregarded the safety of the human emperor for months.
The plan was going too well and the reaction of the people of the Great Qian was too strange, which made the old witch priest think of one thing – “when things go wrong, there is always a demon”.
So, although he had not noticed the Emperor’s plan, he had planted a backhand in advance.
Hou Huai still remembers the words the Great Witch Priest spoke to him that day –
“Offer the Southern Border’s greatest treasure, the Rebel Heavenly Bow and the Sun-Rapturing Arrow, to the Northern Zhou in exchange for the Northern Zhou’s retention of the Southern Border in the future. This is not a difficult matter, and with Qing Yu’s magnanimity, he should be able to allow it.
If that secret method is offered along with it, we can even gain the Daoist Monarch’s support and plant the seeds of the Southland’s rise.”
According to the words of the Great Witch Priest, the Southern Border would be sacrificed under the Human Emperor’s command, and with Qing Yu’s ruthlessness towards the enemy, it was feared that those Southern Border warriors would not be able to last until the end of the war, and would all be killed in battle.
If that is the case, then we should exchange heavy treasures for Qing Yu’s retention of his hand. In this way, no matter how both sides win or lose, the Southern Border will survive.
If we promise to worship her as the Witch King and offer the secret method against the Human Emperor, the Southern Border will have a chance to rise again.”
With the Great Witch Priest’s instructions in mind, Hou Huai resolutely stepped out and headed towards the Imperial City in the centre of the Divine Capital.
————————
An hour later.
In the Great Hall of the Imperial City.
Emperor Zhou himself received Hou Huai and accepted the animal skin presented by Hou Huai.
“The Three Kings’ Royal Regicide Arrow?” Emperor Zhou looked at the beast skin in his hand with interest and said, “Is this the method of killing the emperor that you have researched in the southern border?”
“Not bad.”
Hou Huai said, “The ancestor of the Xing Lie Clan was defeated at the hands of nine generations of human emperors, and the people of the Xing Lie Clan were also banished. The younger brother of the Yin Lie Clan, who was also the great witch priest of our clan in those days, then devoted himself to researching ways to restrain the human emperor’s lineage, and spent a hundred years of effort to research the Three Kings’ Emperor-killing Arrow.
This arrow was forged from the bones of three foreign kings, and three witch kings of my clan were willing to present their bones to forge a Three Kings’ Royal Murdering Arrow, which killed the first ancestor of the first dynasty of the Central Plains and cut off its kingdom for at least a hundred years.”
“The bones of the kings of the Three Kings’ Regicide Arrow, only one of them was left behind by the most powerful, and the other two were both at the level of God.
According to the Great Witch Priest, Daoist Qing Yu had killed the Khan King of the Golden Wolf Khanate, the Witch King of my Southern Border, and the Three Noble Sons of Eastern Japan. If the remains of the kings of these three kingdoms were used to forge the Three Kings’ Regicide Arrow, even a human emperor with the ancestor of the Interligator Clan would be broken by this arrow and suffer severe injuries.”
“The first ancestor of the first dynasty, Xia Qi?” Emperor Zhou’s interest grew heavier.
Xia Qi had been one of the Nine Heavens, and Qing Yu had seen this man in the memories of the True Martial Emperor.
This man practiced the Heavenly Son martial arts, and his strength was no weaker than that of the True Martial Emperor, and he was a proper peak supreme being. Although he did not reach the extreme dao, his battle power was truly terrifying under the augmentation of that dragon vein power.
The fact that the Three Kings’ Royal Regicide Arrows could kill Xia Qi is a clear indication of its restraint on the power of the dragon veins.
And that Three Kings’ Royal Regicide Arrow is definitely inferior to the Royal Regicide Arrow forged from the bones of the three kings.
”And ——”
”If the Heavenly Clouds Sword is used as the base to forge the Three Kings’ Emperorslayer Arrow, then I think its power will increase.”
