Chapter 820 Shakes the Big Dipper! The Five Great Holy Lands! Looting the Source Mine!
"You really want to go into the Primordial Ancient Mine?"
Upon learning that Chu Yang indeed wanted to explore the Primordial Ancient Mine, both Li Heishui and Liu Kou were shocked.
They initially thought the rumors were just that—rumors—but they never expected Chu Yang to actually have this plan.
However, upon closer reflection, when Chu Yang took out the divine spring water in the Dragon Transformation Pool underground palace, he mentioned that the divine spring was also obtained from the desolate ancient forbidden land.
This means he must have been to the Forbidden Wasteland, and now he must have a certain degree of confidence in entering the Primordial Ancient Mine.
After all, Chu Yang was the reincarnation of an emperor, and no one knew exactly how much he had inherited from his previous life.
Perhaps when it comes to understanding the major forbidden zones of life, few people in this world can compare to him.
Chu Yang nodded, then looked at Hei Huang, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Why aren't you going to Yunze Prefecture with Ye Fan? What are you doing here?"
Black King, tongue lolling, ran to his side, behaving like a complete sycophant, "Following him? What future do you have compared to following you?"
"Regarding the Primordial Ancient Mine, could I... uh... be considered a part of it?"
In front of Chu Yang, it didn't even dare to call itself "Emperor".
Li Heishui and Liu Kou's jaws nearly dropped to the ground. This black dog, whose mouth was so foul that he dared to insult anyone, could actually behave like this?
Chu Yang glanced at it sideways, "Aren't you afraid you might never come back?"
Although Black Emperor was a large black dog, its facial expressions were extremely rich. It displayed a fawning look, sticking out its tongue, and said, "With you here, what is there to fear, not only the Primordial Ancient Mine, but even the Ruthless Man's Dojo?"
"The era you lived in must have been incredibly long ago, right?"
"You may not know as much about what will happen in the future as I do. If we join forces, we'll definitely be able to conquer the forbidden zone of life!"
Chu Yang looked at him with a half-smile, then suddenly asked, "So, if we encounter a treasure, how do we classify it?"
Black Emperor chuckled and said, "You choose first, just give me some soup!"
Chu Yang had no idea what this guy was planning, but he probably had a clear purpose and just wanted to hitch a ride.
However, he didn't care. This guy might be cunning, but he didn't have any ill intentions towards his own people.
To outsiders, Black King is just a cunning big black dog with an extraordinary background and methods.
But in Chu Yang's eyes, this was ultimately a loyal old dog who could not follow in his master's footsteps and was left alone in the world.
"Would you like to come with me?" Chu Yang asked, looking at Li Heishui and Liu Kou.
The two were already somewhat interested; every forbidden zone was incredibly dangerous, but it also brought opportunities.
They were just too embarrassed to speak up because they were afraid of becoming a burden if they went in.
Hearing Chu Yang ask this question, they immediately understood that this young emperor Chu was confident that he could bring everyone back safe and sound!
With this in mind, the two of them no longer hesitated, exchanged a glance, and nodded.
Black King became excited immediately. Although Chu Yang had not explicitly agreed, his attitude was tantamount to acquiescence.
It asked excitedly, its tongue lolling out, "When are we leaving?"
Chu Yang pointed to the nine portraits in the sky, "Wait for someone to come and claim the reward for my nine jin of Origin!"
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, four people came and pointed out the origins of the people in the four portraits.
Two of them came from the Wan Chu Sacred Land, one from the Dayan Sacred Land, and one from the Zi Fu Sacred Land.
Chu Yang hadn't expected that even the Purple Mansion would get involved.
Then, thinking of the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, he suddenly had the same thought as the Black Emperor.
Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo!
The Great Emperor Wushi had that kind of physique. If one could create another like that and personally train him, his future achievements would surely surpass those of the Great Emperor Wushi!
However, this thought only flashed through his mind. After all, Ye Fan was the only one with the Holy Body at the time, and given his personality, he probably wouldn't be willing to act as a "stud".
Regardless of the circumstances, those born with a Dao Embryo possess extremely strong physiques, a rare occurrence occurring only once every few hundred thousand years. They represent the opposite extreme of the Ancient Sacred Body, being naturally compatible with the Great Dao, possessing exceptionally high comprehension, and even capable of merging their body with the Dao.
Chu Yang always felt that the potential benefits of this physique were less than one percent.
Since the Purple Mansion Holy Land sent powerful experts to kill me, it shouldn't be too much for me to capture one of their holy maidens, right?
In these three days, news of Yuancheng had spread throughout the Eastern Wilderness and was even rapidly spreading to the Central Plains, the Northern Plains, the Western Desert, and the Southern Ridge.
An unparalleled powerhouse descended with an imperial weapon, joining forces with eight other powerful figures to kill the young emperor of the human race.
This news alone is enough to shake the world.
After all, the older generation of experts rarely intervene in the competition among the younger generation. Even the protectors only come to the rescue in life-or-death crises.
This is a tacit understanding reached by everyone, because even if flowers in a greenhouse grow up, they cannot withstand wind and rain.
It's been many years since we've seen such a large-scale operation to deal with a teenager.
What's even more shocking is that this young man actually killed everyone and even stole an ultimate imperial weapon!
The appearance of the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron in the northern region of the Eastern Wilderness, especially at such a sensitive time, immediately sparked a lot of speculation.
It's hard to believe that the Yao Guang Holy Land used the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron just to kill Chu Yang.
Of course, without the support of an ultimate imperial weapon, no one would dare to attack Chu Yang, not even as a test.
After all, even if Chu Yang cannot use the power of his past life, he may still attract the revenge of a God-King or a Saint!
However, many people still believe that Yao Guang Holy Land did this as a side effect, and that the real purpose of the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron was for Jiang Taixu!
Could the mysterious imperial weapon that restrained the Hengyu Divine Furnace during the battle of the Holy City be the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron?
Otherwise, how could things be so coincidental?
The Dark Night King borrowed an ultimate imperial weapon, but no sooner had he died than another imperial weapon, which should have been in the Southern Region, appeared in the Northern Region.
Regardless of the circumstances, the Yao Guang Holy Land went into a frenzy upon hearing this news!
The imperial weapon was stolen; any faction would go crazy if it were stolen!
As a result, almost all the powerful figures from the Sunshine Holy Land came out, and even many old monsters who had been missing for many years emerged one after another, heading straight for Origin City.
However, the Holy Lord Yaoguang, who was in the Holy City, did not set off.
It's not that he doesn't want to go, it's that he's afraid to go!
Because the moment he took action in the Yao Guang Holy Land, he was already being watched by the Old God King.
Among the holy lords of the major holy lands and families in the East, the Holy Lord of Yaoguang is not considered a strong one; on the contrary, his strength is relatively weak.
Eight hundred years ago, he could stand up to the Peacock King, but now, when facing the Peacock King again, he is even at a disadvantage.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have nearly died and ended up seriously injured when he was surrounded by the Peacock King, the Azure Dragon King, and Tu Tian.
With the replacement of some top-tier Holy Lords, even if they can't win, they can always retreat unscathed.
The Old King also did not go to Yuan City, but instead sent Jiang Yun, who carried the Hengyu Divine Furnace!
This already shows his attitude. There were no verbal threats. With the two supreme imperial weapons right there, no matter how many people from the Yao Guang Holy Land went there, they would all die!
Unless a Dao-Slaying King makes a move, can the Yao Guang Holy Land produce such a powerful expert?
Five days after Chu Yang seized the cauldron, Yuan City was abuzz with activity as countless powerful figures flocked from all directions, eager to witness the spectacle firsthand.
As a result, more people saw the contestants high in the sky, and these powerful individuals were far more knowledgeable than ordinary cultivators.
So by the sixth day, all the portraits except for the man in hemp clothing had been identified.
Two of them came from the Northern Plains Golden Family, and one came from the Central Plains. On the surface, they had no connection with the major dynasties and sects of the Central Plains.
The last person was actually from the Four Symbols Holy Land.
Chu Yang had almost forgotten about this holy land. It was a holy land that had also emerged in the post-ancient era without the inheritance of an emperor.
However, it is said that the Four Symbols Sacred Land has a remarkable lineage, though it cannot compare to the Great Emperor's foundation, it is still quite extraordinary.
This single incident involved the five holy lands of the Eastern Wilderness, the Ruthless Clan, a certain force in the Central Plains, and the Golden Family of the Northern Plains.
"Looks like there are quite a few people who want me dead..."
Chu Yang was quite emotional. If he were like Ye Fan, causing trouble everywhere, that would be fine. But apart from causing a big stir in the Fire Hell, he had been in the Holy City the whole time.
This is the cruelty of the cultivation world. Even if you have done nothing wrong, having a supreme inheritance and having too much strength and foundation is a sin!
In fact, the experts from the Yao Guang Holy Land had already arrived on the fourth day, but no one dared to make any rash moves.
All those powerful lineups were wiped out here. Now, Chu Yang has another supreme imperial weapon in his hands. At least in Yuan City, no one dares to make a move against him.
Because last time, Chu Yang used the Great Emperor Killing Formation to cover the entire Origin City.
Chu Yang completely ignored these people, and in fact, he did not set up any array patterns.
The Black Emperor, who knew this best, was so anxious that he was jumping up and down, wishing he could replace Chu Yang and set up the Boundless Array Pattern.
But it couldn't bear to part with so much of the source...
Unlike Chu Yang, it doesn't possess a "array within an array," which can significantly reduce the consumption of setting up and activating array patterns.
Glancing at the last remaining portrait in the air, Chu Yang made no attempt to put it away. He pushed open the door and stepped out, looking at the two people and the dog in the courtyard, and said softly:
"We should go!"
"Aren't we going to wait?" Li Heishui glanced at the portrait.
Chu Yang shook his head and laughed, "No one will come, because no one who knows him would come to claim the bounty."
From beginning to end, all he wanted to do was find out the identities of those eight people. Hanging up the portrait of the man in hemp clothing was entirely out of disgust for the ruthless lineage.
The big black dog shrank its neck, suddenly having second thoughts, and tentatively said, "Young Emperor Chu, there are many deadly traps outside, a net has been laid for you. Are we really going to go out like this?"
Chu Yang glanced at it. "If you're scared, you can stay here."
After a moment of struggle, the Black Emperor gritted his teeth and said, "I once followed the Great Emperor in conquering all directions, so why would I be afraid of those clowns?"
"They are indeed some clowns..." Chu Yang nodded with a smile, rarely agreeing with Black Emperor's words.
The Yao Guang Holy Land is a place of both light and darkness. Although its apparent power is strong, it is not that great.
He didn't even need to set up a full formation; activating the Great Emperor's Array Plate he always carried was enough to force his way out.
Even if an unparalleled Dao-Slaying King were to make a move, they could withstand it with the help of the array patterns and the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron.
However, the hermit lineage, also known as the ruthless lineage, has a much stronger foundation.
While others might not know, Chu Yang was very clear that the Ruthless lineage had two Saint King-level beings!
If they make a move, I will definitely be unable to withstand it without using my true spirit.
But Chu Yang was certain that they would never make a move!
The lineage of ruthless individuals consists of two members, one in the open and one in the shadows. They will choose one "open agent" and one "dark agent".
Mingzi cultivates only the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, while Anzi cultivates the Undying Heaven Art.
The Mingzi (a high-ranking official) is responsible for stirring up trouble and drawing attention, while the Anzi (another high-ranking official) remains hidden behind the scenes, biding their time.
Ultimately, no matter what, Mingzi will become nourishment for Anzi, using the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to achieve the Undying Heavenly Art.
The current generation's Mingzi is Hua Yunfei, while the Yaoguang Saint is Anzi.
Actually, there was another person named Mingzi, who was also the initial target of the ruthless lineage...
Jiang Yifei of the Jiang family!
When Jiang Yifei was five years old, he was approached by the Ruthless Clan and almost controlled, and was forced to cultivate the Devouring Heaven Demon Art.
As a result, the Jiang family discovered this matter and directly wiped out the ruthless lineage that had infiltrated them. They then forced the ruthless lineage to apologize and instead passed on a portion of the Undying Heavenly Technique to Jiang Yifei, and were forced to choose a new Mingzi.
Therefore, before the spy is exposed, I would never rashly get involved in this matter.
If they get involved, a lot of things will be dug up.
For example, lending the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron to the Dark Night King... or infiltrating and gradually taking control of the Yao Guang Holy Land...
The Yao Guang Holy Land is currently unaware that the Hermit lineage has been completely controlled by the Ruthless lineage. If they discover this in advance, even if the Holy Land suffers a great loss of strength, it can at least eliminate the internal troubles.
Therefore, from any perspective, the Ruthless Clan will not break ties with Chu Yang.
Although an ultimate imperial weapon is important, the successor and years of planning and scheming are even more crucial to them!
This is also the source of Chu Yang's confidence to leave Yuan City openly!
Of course, even if they really break off relations, they can simply use their true spiritual power to get through it easily.
Chu Yang made no attempt to conceal his presence. The moment the three of them and the dog stepped out of the courtyard, they instantly attracted the attention of all the cultivators in Yuan City.
However, no one expected that the first thing he did was to find the place where the Wan Chu Holy Land stored source ore.
And then...
A black and gold cauldron with dragon patterns soared through the sky, unleashing the supreme imperial might. Chu Yang looked at the disciples of the Myriad Realms Holy Land and, as if issuing a royal decree, commanded:
"Bring out all the source ore!"
The disciples of the Wan Chu Holy Land were dumbfounded. The identities of the people in the eight portraits that had been recognized had already spread throughout Yuan City, so they knew very well why Chu Yang had done this.
Seeing that the other party was ready to crush them with the ultimate imperial weapon at the slightest disagreement, the disciples of the Myriad Beginnings Holy Land were like quails, not daring to utter a single word, and could only obediently take out all their source ore.
With a wave of his hand, Chu Yang conjured a star that instantly absorbed all the source ore. Then, with the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron above his head, he set off towards his next destination.
Over the next half day, the Purple Mansion Holy Land, the Great Evolution Holy Land, the Four Symbols Holy Land, and the Yao Guang Holy Land—none of them escaped unscathed.
These holy lands never expected that Chu Yang, even in this predicament, would still have the mind to plunder their source mines, so they made absolutely no preparations beforehand.
"Awesome! This is fucking awesome!" Li Heishui felt a sense of triumph, having long been displeased with the various holy lands.
Liu Kou was also taking deep breaths beside him, as if trying to calm his excited emotions.
Black Emperor glanced at the two of them, his face full of disdain, his expression seeming to say...
"Look at you all, so naive and unsophisticated!"
Just as Chu Yang was about to lead them out of the city, they encountered someone who shouldn't have been there. (End of Chapter)
