Chapter 487 - Great Heaven God Emperor (2/2)

What was worth mentioning was that he was unable to use Tugang.

Tugang contained great power, and the Sword Spirit said that Zhou Xuanji had to make it acknowledge him as its master before it could be controlled and modified by the Sword Spirit.

Zhou Xuanji was surprised; could it be that Tugang already had an owner?

If that was the case, why did Xu Qing still need to defend it and not just absorb it into his body?

He could not understand, so he could only put it aside and focus on cultivating.

He had become quite powerful, and he could even use two Ancient Gazing swords together. This meant that he had not revealed his full power.

Over the past ten years, he had gained another 24 swords, from Gold to God Slaying.

Over this period of time, two more people from the Northern Wilderness had ascended; Zhou Xuanji did not know either of them, and they had joined the Divine Cliff.

Time passed slowly for Zhou Xuanji, but it was quite fast for others.

Xu Qing had already left the north, while Mo Jiuqing was still going about and taking revenge.

What was worth mentioning was that Di Guanlong and the Great Heaven God Dynasty’s Emperor Jundao had fought. Because of the difference in their cultivation, Emperor Jundao had suffered a crushing defeat, and this had angered the Great Heaven God Dynasty.

The Great Heaven God Dynasty had hunted down Di Guanlong, and the Great Heaven God Emperor had personally acted, heavily wounding Di Guanlong and even imprisoning him in the Great Heaven God Dynasty.

After this battle, everyone knew how powerful the Great Heaven God Emperor was.

Before, even though the Great Heaven God Dynasty was powerful, it was not very high-profile. Apart from Emperor Jundao, there were not many famous figures, and the Great Heaven God Emperor was usually in Closed-Door Training.

Now, everyone understood that the Great Heaven God Dynasty was more terrifying than they thought, especially the Great Heaven God Emperor. He had the qualifications to contend for the position of the most powerful expert in the Center God Province.

…

Zhou Xuanji did not know what was going on outside; he was focused on cultivating, and his comprehension of the Way of the Sword was also increasing. He did not neglect his divine abilities either.

Time came closer and closer to the Heavenly Saint expounding the Dao.

Zhou Xuanji guessed that the old beggar was trying to make him grow stronger as quickly as possible most likely because there was going to be a big battle at the time of the Dao expounding.

…

Within the Great Heaven Divine Dynasty, in an underground prison.

Di Guanlong’s hair was unruly, his clothes were in tatters, and he was chained to a wall. His head was lowered and his body slightly trembled, causing the chains to continuously shake and rattle.

An old eunuch stood in front of the door. He had wrinkled skin, and when he smiled, only two slits were left of his eyes.

“Di Guanlong, hurry up and tell us where your teacher is, or else we will have you taste unprecedented pain,” the old eunuch said with a high and sharp voice, sounding like a rooster’s voice.

Di Guanlong raised his head and spat out some bloody water. As it flew through the prison bars, the old eunuch easily dodged it.

He had a mocking smile on his face as he said, “Who would have thought that the Great Heaven God Dynasty was actually like this; when are you going to pretend until?”

Hearing this, the old eunuch shook his head and laughed.

He took out a wooden bottle and some black centipedes crawled out. Their exoskeletons danced with black light, and they looked incredibly sinister.

…

These black centipedes could fly, and they rushed at Di Guanlong as more and more of them appeared.

After a while.

“Arghhh!!”

Di Guanlong’s howls sounded out, echoing in the prison.

The old eunuch turned, and there was no longer a smile on his face. His expression instead became quite sinister.

…

While storms were brewing outside, the Divine Cliff was still quite peaceful.

Yang Yutian had a vision for a wonderful future. Under Zhou Xuanji’s protection, the Divine Cliff would definitely return to its peak, if not surpass it.

It was a pity that the good times did not last for long.

Outside the dense fog, a bald-headed man appeared on a cliff. Behind him was a dense forest, and ahead was the Divine Cliff.

He wore black armor and his shoulders were pointed. Even though his facial features were somewhat handsome, there was a balefulness on his face.

“I finally found you. Today, I will erase the Divine Cliff’s existence,” he muttered to himself. His words were filled with killing intent, and his eyes flashed with a cold light.

He walked towards the fog ahead of him, and he raised his right hand as a gold staff appeared in his hand.
