1059 The Grand Emperors Pas (2/2)
”I detected your strength. However, it wasn't yet the time for your birth. If you continued to remain in the Grand Primordium Divine Stone mine, sooner or later, you would have absorbed the mine's power and become incomparably powerful.”
Da Hong continued, ”At that time, I thought of borrowing your body, but I suppressed that. After gaining the Origin Stone, I became arrogant, thinking I had no reason to fear you and could only be stronger than you! Hence, I raised you like a son. In order for you to be born, I even had humans perform sacrificial offerings for you.”
He chuckled. ”It's a pity that I underestimated you.”
Gu Xiao said plainly, ”You asking the humans to perform sacrificial offerings for me is like tugging at a sapling to help it grow. You had ill intentions and wanted to use the power of sacrificial offerings to control me, grooming me to become your weapon. How could I not understand your plans? When I was growing in the egg, I had already comprehended the various rules of Great Dao, absorbing the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. I was born with great intelligence. However, you took away the Origin Stone and stunted my growth. Hence, I made use of the masters of creation's power to help me grow, absorbing the necessary nutrients.”
Luo Xiao felt a chill down his spine. He quickened his pace as he walked towards the outside of the mine.
Gu Xiao continued, ”Grand Emperor, this isn't your real body, so how powerful can it be? You merely borrowed the body of a lowly demon. Even if you know about what happened in the past and have seen Gong Yun, what can you do?”
”It's sufficient to kill you.”
Da Hong said plainly, ”Aren't you using a reincarnated body? You have reincarnated into a human. In order to have frequent secret meetings with Mistress Yuanmu, you have arranged to become the heavenly master of the Southern Sect. This human body of yours, how powerful can it be?”
Gu Xiao said indifferently, ”In that case, what are you waiting for?”
Qin Mu immediately felt two terrifying tremors from the mine, causing one to shiver in fear. He hurriedly shouted, ”I can't help! If I die here, no one…”
”Got it!” Da Hong and Gu Xiao's voices traveled over at the same time, shouting in rage.
Behind them, those two terrifying tremors subsided slightly.
Qin Mu heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, ”Fatty Dragon, Yan'er, get up on the carriage! Brother Luo, you too!”
After everyone boarded the carriage, the dragon qilin cracked his whip as the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Carriage galloped at full speed towards the outside of the mine.
The moment the Heavenly Dragon Treasure Carriage charged out of the mine, an abnormally ferocious divine art rippled over. Qin Mu looked back and saw that Da Hong had removed his hands from his sleeves!
He pulled out a large spear from his sleeves. Interestingly, although his sleeve wasn't more than a foot long, the spear was more than three feet long.
The spear wasn't complete. The usual divine spear had a straight body, but his spear was crooked and meandering, like a dragon.
The spear was refined by the dragon veins of the ancestral court's ancestral dragon. As he stabbed out with his spear, incomparably loud dragon cries resonated in everyone's ears!
The file in Gu Xiao's hands also transformed at the same time, turning into the shape of a sword. The surface was densely covered with tiny dots. When the file revealed its true form, it became an imperial sword, which symbolized Celestial Emperor's domination over the universe!
The tiny dots on both sides of the sword had transformed into countless imprints of strange writings and symbols, covering the entire body of the sword. Those were Great Dao imprints!
When Gu Xiao was filing his nails with his file, no one could make out the real form of the sword. They weren't aware that the neatly placed tiny dots were actually Great Dao imprints!
There were close to 2,000 types of imprints on the sword, representing the blessings given to Celestial Emperor from 2,000 ancient gods during prehistory, as well as their submission to him!
As the treasure sword clashed with the ancestral dragon divine spear, Dao sound resonated. It sounded as though millions of ancient gods were singing together, using their Great Dao to support their powerful emperor!
Above the golden coffin and the eight ancient god corpses, the two terrifying figures exchanged their first set of blows.
The ripples traveled quickly over to Qin Mu and the rest. Yan'er dodged behind the carriage, merging her primordial spirit and corporeal body together to transform into the Dragon Sparrow Engulfing The Sky form, protecting the carriage.
Boom—
She grunted as blood dripped from the corners of her mouth. Her corporeal body and primordial spirit were severely damaged within an instant, causing her to revert to her original form, a fat girl.
The pressure of this terrifying shockwave was so intense that this 350-pound girl ended up being plastered onto the back of the treasure carriage, moving forward along with the carriage. The six heavenly dragons tried to hold down the treasure carriage with all their might but were suppressed by the frightening power, forcing them back.
Since they were using too much of their power, their skin was cracked open by their large veins, causing them to bleed.
Qin Mu made a stroke as his teleportation divine art exploded, transforming into a big circular ring that blocked out the rippling effects of Da Hong and Gu Xiao's divine arts. However, his teleportation divine art was smashed instantly.
Qin Mu twirled his fingers repeatedly, drawing big circles in succession. Within these circles, countless teleportation runes flew out, forming teleportation divine arts one after another. As one ring was shattered, another one took its place, helping Yan'er resist the shockwaves of the divine arts.
Luo Xiao immediately controlled the void beast and placed him behind the treasure carriage. However, it was also being pressured until it was forced back.
Finally, the first shockwave was over. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. As they looked into the distance, they realized that the treasure carriage was pushed hundreds of miles out.
”Da Hong isn't Gu Xiao's match.”
Qin Mu's god eyes were peerless and could see what was happening in the mine. Da Hong was injured. Compared to Gu Xiao, he was slightly weaker due to his demon race corporeal body.
Although it was the groundbreaking first demon, when faced with Gu Xiao and his imperial sword that was powered by the Great Dao, he suffered a huge loss from the first exchange of blows.
Gu Xiao's sword couldn't be referred to as a sword but a type of Great Dao weapon. As the sword moved, close to 2,000 ancient gods of all sizes stood behind him, neatly placed. Among them were apparitions of majestic existences like Earth Count, Heaven Duke, and Mother Earth!
”I have been searching for you all these years. I'm unable to put my heart at ease when you're still alive.”
Although Gu Xiao spoke nonchalantly, his sword light was frightening, forcing Da Hong to spread the two wings on his back and fly up into the air. Da Hong said plainly, ”In order to lure you out, I was willing to reveal the location of the ancestral court and banter with Celestial Venerable Mu. I can also resist the urge to search for the rest of the masters of creation! My objective is here, to humiliate and kill you in front of Gong Yun!”
”You really think you can defeat me?”
Da Hong laughed heartily. Suddenly, the sky became extremely bright, and a humongous void beast mother squeezed out from the layers and layers of void. Its eye was as bright as a million suns.
”The later generations view the Dao as supreme and visualization as declining and outdated. Celestial Emperor, I know this body might not be your match, unable to beat any Dao you pull out from your body. However, in the ancestral court, you aren't my match.”
The voice of Da Hong traveled over from the mine. The void beast mother had squeezed out of the void, its body becoming smaller and smaller as it charged towards the mine!
That immensely powerful void beast mother was shrinking its body. The void beasts could change their size at will. They could swallow the sun and the moon, and they could also become as small as a mustard seed.
It was so powerful that it ignored the power of the Grand Primordium Divine Stone mine, charging directly inside!
”The most powerful void beast mother submits to the strongest master of creation! The void beasts here are her offspring!”
Da Hong's voice contained both joy and mockery. ”Tai Chu, this is why I chose to battle you here!”
