Chapter 812 A Ruthless Man's Test! Wei Yi! Dragon Transformation Pool!
Chapter 812 A Ruthless Man's Test! Wei Yi! Dragon Transformation Pool!
The old man was dressed in rags, with cloudy eyes, giving off a dazed and confused feeling.
But upon seeing Chu Yang, his cloudy old eyes instantly cleared, and a sharp light flashed in them.
He didn't say a word, just stared straight at Chu Yang, making Chu Yang a little confused.
Why would the old madman appear in the Holy City at this critical juncture?
Was it just to find him?
But what was his purpose in seeking me out?
When Chu Yang entered the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, he did not encounter the Old Madman, nor did he even see the Heavenly Pivot Saintess who had become a Desolate Slave. He was directly persuaded to leave by the Ruthless Great Emperor.
In other words, he and the old madman had never met and had no connection whatsoever.
and many more!
Chu Yang's eyes narrowed slightly as he suddenly thought of a possibility he had never considered before.
Six thousand years ago, the Tianxuan Holy Land attacked the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, but was completely wiped out, with only three people surviving.
One was the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan, who has now become a slave.
One is Wei Yi, who, as a descendant of the Tianxuan servants, hides in the Holy City to guard the Tianxuan ruins.
The last one is this crazy old man, but the problem is...
Putting aside the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan, Wei Yi could be said to have escaped by sheer luck.
What's wrong with that crazy old man?
Not only did he survive, but he also entered the Forbidden Wasteland more than once.
You should know that the current "Wilderness" is none other than the Ruthless Great Emperor!
Back then, the Great Sage of Battle, carrying three supreme imperial weapons, almost perished in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land. How could the Mad Old Man escape alive and still be going in and out of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land?
Ruthless!
This must be related to the Ruthless Great Emperor!
Perhaps the Ruthless Great Emperor didn't necessarily see the Mad Old Man as a pawn, but rather as something else entirely.
The Ruthless Great Emperor in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land is merely a shell, lacking a complete consciousness. He also has to be distracted by guarding the Great Accomplished Holy Body, so there's no reason for him to give the Mad Old Man direct guidance.
It was precisely because of this that the Ruthless Great Emperor did not appear to communicate with him when he went to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land.
Otherwise, if such a big variable as himself suddenly appears, the other party will more or less test him.
Therefore, Chu Yang guessed that it was very likely that the Ruthless Great Emperor had used some means to let the Mad Old Man see something.
The fact that both the Mad Old Man and Ye Fan appeared in the Northern Region indicates that the Tai Xuan Nirvana event has been brought forward.
After his rebirth, the old man was no longer in a daze. So, through the things the ruthless man showed him, he made many connections and that's why he came to the door.
Chu Yang felt that his guess was probably close to the truth.
He hesitated for a moment, then met the old madman's gaze and said softly, "Senior, you've come to me seeking some kind of answer?"
The glint in the old madman's eyes faded, and he nodded slightly, saying, "Yes."
Let me guess...
After clearing his mind, Chu Yang appeared relaxed, plopped down, and said:
"Since you came to find me instead of going to Tianxuan Stone Workshop, it means it has nothing to do with what happened six thousand years ago."
"Otherwise, Senior Wei Yi would definitely know more than I do."
The mad old man paused for a moment, then stared intently at Chu Yang and asked directly, "Who exactly are you, Great Emperor?"
His words were rather intriguing; he wasn't asking which emperor Chu Yang was reincarnated from, but rather directly asking which emperor he was.
Just like when he encountered the Black Emperor in Purple Mountain, this mad old man also felt that Chu Yang was a hidden Great Emperor walking in the world!
"If I said I was the Ancient Emperor of the Sun, would you believe me?" Chu Yang made up a story off the cuff.
The mad old man fell silent.
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, "So no matter who I say I am, you won't believe me; you'll always have to verify it."
"In that case, the answer to this question is meaningless."
"But I am human, that's beyond doubt. What the Great Emperor Valley Emperor could do, I can do too!"
The mad old man looked up again, stared at Chu Yang for a long time, and then nodded slightly, saying, "One word is enough."
Chu Yang hesitated for a moment, then said, "In this life, I will conquer the path to immortality, but I don't need to prove my Dao to become an emperor!"
Upon hearing this, the mad old man's pupils contracted, and a look of horror appeared on his face.
Can one become an emperor without needing to prove one's Dao?
If someone else had said these words, they would have thought the other person was spouting nonsense.
After the great changes in the world, there is only one Great Emperor in each era. It is not that others are not talented enough, but that the Great Dao of this world only supports one person to attain the Dao.
The old man was unaware of the specific details; he was not yet at that level.
How can one become an emperor if one does not seek enlightenment?
An alternative path to enlightenment?
That doesn't qualify as an emperor; it's only close to the level of an emperor.
Unfortunately, it was Chu Yang who said these words, so the mad old man could only guess that the other party was indeed the Great Emperor himself, possessing the Dao Fruit, which was why he did not need to prove the Dao.
But he didn't know that Chu Yang's words were actually directed at the Ruthless Great Emperor.
First, she persuaded him to retreat in the desolate forbidden land, and then she guided the old man of the wind to find her. If all her guesses are correct, then the Ruthless Great Emperor must be wary and worried about something...
The Imprint of Heaven!
In the Dharma-ending Age, only one person can align with the Great Dao, condense the Heavenly Heart Imprint, and become a Great Emperor.
Ruthless people are mostly afraid that if they compete with Ye Fan, this flower, which resembles his brother, will ultimately end up in a sad state.
Although he didn't get the answer he wanted, the old madman was already quite satisfied.
Unlike the Ruthless Emperor, he cared more about Chu Yang's position.
Throughout history, great emperors either cut themselves off and sealed themselves into forbidden zones, or they dominated their era and protected this land.
Most of those supreme beings in forbidden zones who sever their own lives will extend their lifespan by devouring living beings; only a very small number can remain true to their original intentions.
Having witnessed the terror of the desolate forbidden land, the old madman feared that Chu Yang was a supreme being of the forbidden zone, and one who, after awakening, could leave the forbidden zone and roam the world!
If that's the case, it would be a disaster for the Eastern Wilderness and even the entire Beidou region.
Because this means that Chu Yang could launch a dark uprising at any time!
However, judging from Chu Yang's attitude, the old madman felt that he was probably not the supreme ruler of the forbidden zone.
On the one hand, in this era without an emperor, if there really is a supreme being in a forbidden zone who can move freely, then what is there to worry about?
If we take direct action, who in the world can stop us?
Even if a great emperor emerges in this era, by then, he will have already absorbed enough life essence and resealed himself with immortal essence.
On the other hand, the old madman felt that Chu Yang had no reason to lie to him.
He came here today already prepared to die.
If Chu Yang were truly a Supreme Being and had hidden his strength for another purpose, wouldn't he have been killed to silence him for that provocative question?
So the old madman's final conclusion was...
Chu Yang is most likely a genuine Great Emperor who, through some unknown means, deceived the heavens and lived a second life, or perhaps more than a second life.
After the old madman left, Chu Yang felt he needed to open the secret stash of money.
Otherwise, if this person were to meet with Wei Yi, and the two of them conspired to do something earth-shattering, the treasures in Tianxuan Stone Workshop would be exposed.
Moreover, Ye Fan has been in the Holy City for some time now. Although the Crimson Dragon Daoist is currently in seclusion to digest the Human Essence Fruit and has not yet set his sights on the Heavenly Jade Stone Workshop.
However, it's possible that Ye Fan might, by some stroke of luck, bypass the Red Dragon Taoist and directly discover the hidden treasures within the stone workshop.
With this in mind, Chu Yang left the demon clan's palace and arrived at the extremely dilapidated Tianxuan Stone Workshop.
Tianxuan Stone Archway covers a vast area, but it is incredibly desolate, overgrown with vegetation, resembling a wild field.
The magnificent gate, resembling a city gate tower, is obscured by ancient trees, and a plaque with the words "Tianxuan" can be faintly seen.
Chu Yang followed the dilapidated stone steps to a cluster of collapsed palaces, where he saw an old man.
The old man was hunched over, his face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes were cloudy. He looked like he was on his last legs and about to die, as if he might lie in his coffin at any moment.
Chu Yang looked at the old man and said with a smile, "Senior, I would like to go in and pick out a few source stones."
The old man stared at him intently, his face twitching slightly, before slowly saying, "I can give you some, but please don't come again..."
It is common knowledge that this old man is a descendant of a loyal servant of the Tianxuan Holy Land, who has guarded the ruins of the Tianxuan Stone Archway for generations.
In fact, this guy was a survivor of the Tianxuan Holy Land's attack on the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land back then, and also one of the three heroes of Tianxuan who were famous in the Eastern Wilderness six thousand years ago, and the old madman's junior brother - Wei Yi!
This is a genuine saint!
Putting Jiang Taixu aside, as long as he doesn't venture into restricted areas, Wei Yi can practically roam freely in the Beidou Star Region.
The other party must have noticed something amiss, or perhaps they had met the old madman, which is why they were so wary.
In fact, Wei Yi was also feeling uneasy. He didn't understand why this guy, who was supposedly a supreme being of the forbidden zone or possibly a living ancient emperor, had come here.
Could it be that they've set their sights on the legacy left behind by the Tianxuan Holy Land six thousand years ago?
Chu Yang simply smiled and nodded, then walked deeper into the ruins.
Watching his retreating figure, Wei Yi's expression gradually became serious.
If the other party is truly after Tianxuan's hidden strength, then even knowing it's impossible, I have to take the gamble today.
He's been hiding for so many years, isn't it all to protect the Tianxuan Ruins?
However, not long after, he saw Chu Yang walk back carrying a stone in one hand.
Upon approaching, Chu Yang waved his hand, tossing down ten thousand catties of Origin Stone, and put away two Origin Stones. He then chuckled softly, "Senior, I just met one of your old friends."
"Don't worry, I mean no harm."
"There will be some trouble ahead, and we may need the help of the two seniors."
Chu Yang gave a casual remark and turned to leave.
He was telling Wei Yi that although he was very strong, it was often inconvenient for him to take action, and that if they helped him, they would be able to share in a great karmic debt.
Two saints, one of whom will soon be promoted to Saint King.
In the Big Dipper Starfield, this is an immense help!
Add to that a white-robed god-king, and Chu Yang felt...
With these three powerful backers, even disregarding his true spirit, he could roam freely in the Big Dipper Starfield.
Jiang Taixu's side is doing well; everyone is helping each other out, which is considered a matter of mutual favors.
But for Old Madman and Wei Yi, Chu Yang was completely a riddle teller, getting something for nothing.
This left the two feeling shrouded in mystery, unable to see his true nature, and their imaginations began to run wild...
Back at the demon palace, Chu Yang summoned the Peacock King and then cut open two pieces of source stone in front of him.
One Human Yuan Fruit, a fist-sized piece of divine source.
Actually, there are still good things in Tianxuan Stone Workshop, but Chu Yang felt that he could go to any of the various stone workshops at any time and take whatever he wanted. Why should he squeeze Tianxuan Holy Land, which was already in a bad situation and whose lineage had been cut off?
After absorbing the divine source into his body and tossing it into the bronze bowl, Chu Yang looked at the Peacock King, pointed to the Human Essence Fruit, and said, "Senior, just like last time, I'll sell this fruit for the price of the amount of source you have."
The Peacock King was taken aback. His first reaction was not to refuse, but to quickly take out the jade artifact and put away the Human Essence Fruit, fearing that too much of its medicinal power would be lost.
Then he frowned and said, "Nephew, this..."
Chu Yang raised his hand to interrupt, saying, "Senior knows my abilities. This Human Yuan Fruit can only sell for a few hundred thousand catties at most, which is just a drop in the ocean for me."
"Using this to gain a favor from my senior is the way I'm profiting..."
The Peacock King, hearing his frank words, no longer refused.
After he left, Chu Yang continued his cultivation, beginning to refine the divine source and the demon emperor's essence blood.
In just three months, he advanced to the fourth divine treasure. But just as the fourth divine treasure was about to be perfected, another strange change occurred in the holy city!
Chu Yang's seclusion lasted for nearly a month, and the various holy lands and aristocratic families have joined forces to launch their second attack on Zishan.
However, there has been no movement from that side yet, but the Jiang family has stirred up a storm!
The Jiang family brought out the Hengyu Divine Furnace and placed it in the Dragon Transformation Pool, sealing off the entire Holy City!
The old god-king Jiang Taixu wants to live a second life in the Dragon Transformation Pool!
In recent days, far too many people have come to the demon clan's palace, specifically asking to find Chu Yang.
Chu Yang directly instructed the descendants of the bandits to refuse entry to these people, because he knew very well what they were planning.
The news of the return of the peerless god king made many people restless. They did not want to see Jiang Taixu live, so they tried to intercept those life-extending treasures in advance.
Chu Yang, "Gu Feng", and masters of source arts like Ouyang Ye naturally became the focus of attention.
Because everyone knows that if there is a precious medicine that can prolong the life of the old god king, it is very likely that it is in the hands of these masters of source arts.
As Chu Yang stepped out of the white jade pavilion in the demon clan's palace, he saw several figures waiting for him.
The descendants of the four great bandits were all present, along with the Golden-Winged Roc King and the Green-Clad Little Flood Dragon King.
Chu Yang was not surprised by the arrival of the descendants of the Great Bandit. As for the Golden-Winged Roc King, there was no need to say more. Since he knew that he would get involved in the old God King's affairs, he would stand up to help even if he had to force his way through the pass.
But what's the deal with the Green-Clad Little Dragon King?
Chu Yang looked at him suspiciously, then asked, "Brother Jiao, aren't you afraid of being punished by the Jiao King if you travel with us?"
The little dragon king in green remained calm and composed, and said with a smile, "It was he who sent me. He said that although he couldn't take direct action, he could send me to represent a stance."
"If things really get to the worst point, he will help!"
Chu Yang was stunned. The Azure Dragon King hadn't been like this before!
The little dragon king in green robes continued to explain, "His obtaining the Human Essence Fruit is not related to the demon race's stance, but rather to personal relationships."
Chu Yang suddenly realized that the Peacock King had given the Human Essence Fruit to the Azure Dragon King and had said something that caused this favor to fall on his shoulders.
It must be said that the Peacock King is truly a person worth getting to know well. There are not many twists and turns in getting along with him, and he handles things with a sense of propriety and integrity.
"In that case, let's go!"
With that, Chu Yang took a step to walk out.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from not far away.
"Wait! Take us with you!" (End of Chapter)
