Chapter 331: 331 Red Moon Great Saint

“Boy, what did you do to offend that woman?”

Within some space, there was no ray of light around and no vitality, Gu Yang was exploring the mysteries of the Unleaking Realm when an aged voice suddenly echoed in his ears.

The voice was cold, without a hint of warmth, just like a venomous snake.

He opened his eyes, and amidst the darkness, a cold glint seemed to sweep past, “Who’s that?”

Just a while ago, Saint Chaoyang had imprisoned him here, but he did not expect there to be someone else in here.

The aged voice echoed again, “A mere Unleaking Realm child like you has been imprisoned in the dark cell, what makes you special?”

A flicker passed Gu Yang’s eyes.

Through the words of the voice’s owner, he discerned several significant pieces of information.

The owner of the voice was at least at the cultivation level of a Celestial Being.

Furthermore, this dark cell most likely wasn’t just holding him, there had to be other Celestial Beings as well.

If Saint Chaoyang could imprison Celestial Beings in here, her strength must exceed his initial assumptions.

Moreover, the voice had mentioned the “Unleaking Realm”, not “Nascent Soul”, indicating that he was from the Divine State and he had trained in Martial Arts.

After the significant revival of Martial Arts, only a dozen or so people achieved the level of Celestial Beings.

Who could this person be?

Gu Yang’s mind turned quickly, a smile surfacing on his face, he asked, “How should I address you, senior?”

“It’s been many years since anyone asked my name. My family name is Shang.”

Shang?

Gu Yang thought for a moment but couldn’t recall any Celestial Being with the family name of Shang.

The number of Celestial Beings in the Xia Dynasty was limited, Lin Family had one, there was Luo Wang, the head of the academy. Counting back further, there was the Xia Emperor’s family, a total of ten people.

The thing was, none of them had the last name Shang.

Going further back, it seemed there was only the Nameless Taoist who founded Dao Sect, and the founder of the Sword Palace.

Then, the aged voice reacted, sounding somewhat disgruntled. “Hey, you haven’t answered the question. Why did that woman imprison you here?”

“Perhaps because I… teased her,” the casual words slipped out from Gu Yang’s mouth.

The aged voice coldly harrumphed, “Good job, slick one. Not a single word of sincerity.”

Then he stopped speaking.

Gu Yang also remained silent, continuing to explore the changes that occurred after breaking through to the Unleaking Realm.

After breaking his physical constraints, his potential had been fully unlocked, this state was somewhat akin to unlocking genetic locks. His strength significantly improved.

His current strength, when fully released, was not inferior to that of the Divine Ape.

But to unleash such terrible strength, he had to pay a price; after all, the human body could not compete with divine beasts like the Divine Ape.

And the price was his lifespan.

He had absorbed so much divine beast essence blood, especially swallowing the Phoenix’s origin twice; thus, Gu Yang possessed an incredibly robust origin, vastly surpassing any Unleaking Realm expert in this world.

Consequently, his lifespan became extraordinarily long.

Now, he could roughly calculate his lifespan. Considering only natural attrition, he could live for more than ten thousand years, over ten times the lifespan of a normal Unleaking Realm expert.

Of course, this was only if he did not use any Mana or Divine Power.

The moment he engaged in a battle, be it using Mana or strength beyond his limits, he would consume his lifespan.

At this moment, he finally understood why Unleaking Realm experts refrained from engaging in duels.

Each time they fought, they could feel their lifespan slipping away.

A single spell cost him several months of lifespan.

An all-out strike drained a year of his life.

Who could bear such a consequence?

Now, Gu Yang also had to consider this issue. No matter how abundant his vitality, it was bound to exhaust eventually.

He would avoid a fight if it was possible.

Fortunately, he could transform into divine beasts.

Using the power of his divine beast transformation wouldn’t consume his origin.

+Right now, his six divine beast forms had reached the Unleaking Realm, plus an Unleaking Realm companion beast and a blood bat, which could easily handle any opponent below the Celestial Being.

“Hey, kid, what’s your name?”

At this moment, the aged voice echoed again.

“My name is Gu Yang.”
