After hearing Chen Luoyang’s words, Sword Emperor Tao WangJi fell silent for a moment before saying, ‘”‘This old man also has limited knowledge of that young friend Cheng.
I only heard from my master that there’s a world beyond the heavens. Other than the Divine Lands, there’s another world called the Mortal Dust World.”
“In the mortal world, there was a dynasty called South Chu, and the royal family’s surname was Cheng.
The South Chu Royal Family’s ultimate technique was called the Glorious Score. If one cultivated it successfully, they would manifest golden light and flames, which were called the Brilliant Light.
However, regarding the South Chu royal family and the score of glory, this old man really doesn’t know much, and that’s all I know.”
Chen Luoyang listened to the other party’s words and quickly filtered through the information that was worth paying attention to.
Firstly, his surname was Cheng, and he cultivated the Brilliant Score. He obtained the Brilliant Light and was a member of the Royal Family.
This meant that the other party definitely had other people of the same race.
After that, the Divine Lands was unified by the Xia Dynasty more than a thousand years ago. For so many years, it was called the Great Xia.
The name of the country, South Chu, reflected that in the mortal world, South Chu was not a unified empire. It was very likely that there were other empires that were on par with it.
However, after exchanging blows with Cheng Huyuan, Chen Luoyang could tell that the glory of the Southern Chu Cheng Clan was faintly above the imperial martial arts of the Great Xia Li Clan.
Whether or not he could smash the Heaven Cauldron Divine Art head-on in the same realm was still to be verified. After all, in terms of attack power, the Brilliant Light was still inferior to the Divine Martial Demon Fist.
What the Divine Martial Demon Fist could do, the Glory Score might not be able to do.
However, there was no doubt that the Nine Dragons Emperor Fist or the Ten Dragons Emperor Fist could not lift their heads.
” The successor of the Devil Buddha lineage, or the Sinful Monk lineage, also came from the Mortal World? ” Chen Luoyang asked.
“I heard my master mention that there is indeed the inheritance of the Devil Buddha in the mortal world.” Tao WangJi nodded slightly.
Chen Luoyang nodded inwardly.
The inheritance of the Devil Buddha lineage.
South Chu Dynasty.
If the Sword Emperor Tao WangJi’s inheritance was included, then the martial arts level of the Mortal World should be higher than the Divine Lands. What was uncertain was the highest level of the experts there.
Tao WangJi looked at Chen Luoyang and said slowly.
“I thought Cult Master Chen was the true heir of the Ancient Gods Clan in the Mortal Dust World, but it seems like that’s not the case.”
” I’m fine. ” When Chen Luoyang heard this, he smiled faintly. ” It seems like Revered Master has really told you many things. ‘
Tao WangJi nodded. ” According to my master, the Ancient Gods Clan also comes from the mortal world. However, their ultimate technique is called the Divine Demon Blood, not the Heavenly Demon Blood.
Fei Chen, the Nine-Armed Sky Demon, should have come from there. Like his master, he accidentally wandered into the Divine Lands and eventually settled down, passing down the inheritance of the Ancient Gods Clan.
However, this inheritance wasn’t complete and couldn’t be considered a direct inheritance.
Looking at Cult Master Chen’s words and actions, it doesn’t seem like you’ve come into contact with the orthodox Ancient God Cult in the mortal world. It seems like you’ve surpassed your predecessors in the Divine Lands, allowing the inheritance of the Ancient God Cult here to gradually return to the orthodox path. ‘
“You’re welcome.” Chen Luoyang said nonchalantly.
He was thinking of something else.
The feeling he had when he fought with Cheng Huyuan was right.
The other party really recognized the Divine Martial Demon Fist and the Indestructible Celestial Demon Body.
There was indeed an Ancient Gods Clan in the Mortal World, and this existence was like a main sect, with the inheritance of the God Demon Blood.
However, judging from Cheng Huyuan’s shocked reaction when he faced the
Xuanming, the Divine Martial Demon Fist of the Ancient Gods Clan in the Mortal World might not be complete. They had never seen the Xuanming move.
Was it just the Mysterious Underworld, or was it more than one style of the Mysterious Underworld?
Many thoughts flashed through Chen Luoyang’s mind.
“Where is your esteemed teacher now?” he asked.
Sword Emperor Tao WangJi shook his head. ” It has been decades since we parted ways with our master. My master is different from your sect’s founder, Fei Tianmo. He has no intention of staying in the Divine Lands and has been living in seclusion in the Eastern Sea.
I was fated to be with my master and was taught the ultimate technique by him. However, when my master returned to the mortal world, I did not leave with him.
“From then on, we never met again. Regarding the world of mortals, I couldn’t enter the door and couldn’t find my master. It’s already been decades.”
” Yes. ” Chen Luoyang nodded. ” The Heavenly Sword Book. It’s a pretty good martial art.
Tao WangJi said, ” It’s a pity that my knowledge of the origins of my sect is limited. I only heard my master mention the word ‘Heavenly River’. I didn’t say anything else. I can only be considered his disciple in name.
Chen Luoyang listened quietly.
He would not believe everything the other party said.
However, he had already gained a lot from Tao WangJi.
The white-robed elder opposite him also received the information he wanted. Chen Luoyang hadn’t had any direct contact with the Ancient Gods Clan’s main sect in the mortal world. It wasn’t like the Ancient Gods Clan’s main sect in the mortal world was like the Devil Buddha lineage, which had officially extended its tentacles into the Divine Prefecture.
His Demon God Blood came from his own cultivation and not from the guidance of the head of the Ancient Gods Clan.
If he believed it, would it be good news or bad news for Tao WangJi?
On the bright side, there weren’t many people standing behind Chen Luoyang.
Thinking about the worst, how terrifying would Chen Luoyang be if he was able to recreate the Godfiend Blood?
Only the Sword Emperor Tao WangJi himself knew the exact feeling.
Demon Emperor Chen Luoyang tapped his finger on the stone table in front of him and said, “”ls there anything else you want to talk to me about the Red Dust World?”
The white-robed old man on the other side of the stone table laughed at himself.” I’m sorry to make a fool out of myself, Cult Master Chen. I don’t know much about the mortal world. I only heard bits and pieces of the story from my master. ‘
“It’s just that my master and I are both obsessed with swordsmanship, so we talk more about swordsmanship.
My master once mentioned a sword technique, but I was young and ignorant back then, so I thought it was a legend and didn’t take it to heart.
Only now did I realize that the story is not just a story.”
“Oh?” Chen Luoyang looked at the other party calmly.
“The Twelve Nether Swords, or rather, the twelve forms of the Nether Extermination Sword Intent,” said Tao WangJi slowly.
Chen Luoyang replied with an ” En ” and had a smile that was not a smile on his face. He turned his head and looked at the wall of the stone cave.
His line of sight seemed to pierce through layers of rocks, and it was in the direction of Si Huaifei and Jie Xingmang.
Sword Emperor Tao WangJi nodded calmly. ” My disciple Meng Lang has blindly stepped into a situation that is beyond his control. If he doesn’t control himself, not only will he hurt himself, he might even bring disaster to the common people and kill the Divine Prefecture.
“Are you comparing me to your disciple?” asked Chen Luoyang.
“Cult Master Chen’s cultivation is naturally far above my disciple Starlight.” “But the Twelve Nether Swords isn’t a sword technique that should exist in the human world,” Tao WangJi said.”lt’s the reverse flow of the Yellow Springs to the human world, the malice of the deathly still Hell to all living beings.” “It’s just a sword technique, ” Chen Luoyang replied indifferently.
He looked at Tao WangJi and suddenly smiled,Yan Mingkong’s path in this sword art is even more profound than your disciple’s. ‘
Tao WangJi was about to say something, but when he heard this, he fell silent. The poison of the Twelve Nether Swords was more widespread than he had expected.
After a while, he said,” My disciple’s condition is worrisome and requires this old man to take care of him. I hope Cult Master Chen can give me some time. When the ten days are up, this old man will consult Cult Master Chen again.
Chen Luoyang stood up and said, ” If what you said today is true, I don’t mind doing you a favor. There are still six more days. I will wait for you in Ba Province. ‘
“This old man thanks Cult Master Chen on behalf of my disciple,” said Tao WangJi.
After the two of them left the cave, Chen Luoyang stepped onto the dragon’s head again. Then, the flaming dragon roared and parted the storm outside, leaving Jade Spoon Island.
The Sword Emperor watched Chen Luoyang’s back as he left, and an unresolvable worry surfaced in the depths of his eyes.
The others on the island remained silent.
Li Cheng, the Third Prince of the Xia Dynasty, said to Shi Jing, It’s all thanks to the Pavilion Master’s initiative to resolve the issue. Otherwise, the Demon Emperor’s ferocious might would be unstoppable. I’m afraid that all of us would have no way to escape.
Shi Jing glanced at Li Cheng and said softly, ‘”‘Third Prince, you are too kind.”
Li Cheng bowed to the Sword Pavilion Master on the mountain from afar, then called for the others to return to their hidden residence.
Everyone silently bowed to Tao WangJi and Shi Jing, then left behind Li Cheng.
The scene remained strangely quiet, so stifling that it was difficult to breathe.
Shi Jing watched as everyone left, his eyes filled with sorrow.
He had a clear mind. How could he not see that people’s hearts were changing?
Everyone, including the former Third Prince of the Xia Dynasty, Li Cheng, couldn’t help but feel fear towards the Demon Emperor Chen Luoyang.
It was nothing to be afraid of.
After all, the Demon Empress’s achievements were unparalleled and her arrogance was monstrous.
It was normal for people to feel that he was invincible when he swept across the Divine Prefecture.
However, what was abnormal was that people were completely despairing about this. They had the thought of surrendering to their fate. They no longer had the will to continue fighting and die.
Shi Jing was very calm, never expecting anyone to risk their lives.
What made his heart heavy was that his master’s existence could not dispel the haze of fear in everyone’s hearts.
Everyone seemed to be certain that the Sword Emperor would follow in the footsteps of the Saber Emperor and be defeated by the Demon Emperor’s Fist.
In everyone’s eyes, the former pillar of the righteous path of the Divine
Prefecture was now more like a martyr who knew that it was impossible.
At the same time that people admired him, did they also have some hidden resentment?
That old man was really a hindrance…
If it weren’t for him, we might as well just subdue the Demon Empress
together…
Let’s wait and see. If we wait another six days, the result will be the same…
At that time, he must not be misunderstood by the Demon Empress to avoid being implicated…
“Be careful now. Don’t anger the people from the Sword Pavilion. Don’t let them discover our thoughts. Otherwise, we’ll be slaughtered by them first…”
The intelligent sword was clear-minded, and it was only when it faintly sensed such an atmosphere that Shi Jing’s heart was filled with sorrow.
At this moment, a hand landed on his shoulder.
Shi Jing turned around and saw his master smiling and shaking his head at him.
“It’s because I didn’t cultivate my heart enough.” Shi Jing said softly.
Sword Emperor Tao WangJi’s expression was gentle.
Just as he was about to console his disciple, his expression suddenly changed and he turned to look outside the island.
The storm there was without warning, and the sky was dyed red..
