Chapter 975 - An Astonishing Slash (1/2)
After that.
Everyone started grinding their teeth. Even Hu Shouxin—the Heavenly General of the Demon-suppressing Heavenly Sect—widened his eyes.
A Demon Commander!
That was someone comparable to a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord on Planet Tianhuang. In the Ancient Demons Loch, it was common to see a Demon Commander fight against three Nascent Soul Cultivators alone. Shouldn’t such a terrifying being appear after the sixtieth level? Why was it here?
What surprised Heavenly General Hu was that Luo Changshen and the scruffy old cultivator could stand side-by-side with a Demon Commander. Did this mean that they were Heavenly Lords?
“What’s going on? Three Heavenly Lords came to the Ancient Demons Loch?”
Heavenly General Hu was terrified.
Sima Tai and the old cultivators were even trembling.
Then, Lady Zi suddenly stepped closer and knelt before the scruffy old cultivator respectfully.
“Greetings Lord Gu. I’m Zi Qiuyun from the Zi family in Dongyang City. Our Ancestral Patriarch once received half a Heavenly Book from you. The image is still hanging in our ancestral hall and we’ve never forgotten about it.”
“You’re a descendant of that kid back then. I can’t believe it’s been ten thousand years and he’s also dead.” Lord Gu frowned. He sighed and shook his head. “Get up. You can follow me there, but whether you can get a cultivation opportunity will depend on your luck.”
“Thank you.”
Lady Zi slowly walked and knelt behind Lord Gu while being extremely respectful.
“My Lady, what about us?” Captain Xue quickly asked.
“You…”
Lady Zi didn’t reply to him; she looked sorry.
“As for you, you’re already lucky to be able to see the deity ground. Don’t even dream about getting any cultivation opportunities.” The scruffy old cultivator snickered.
“Right, you’ll become my food.”
Yuanlong burst into laughter.
“Boom!”
Countless plumes of black mist rose behind him, turning into hell. A Fiend God inside, which was a hundred feet tall, got up. It was covered in a black armor and its two horns were shining. Its eyes were red and there were pointed fangs in its mouth, as if it were a demon from Hell.
“Unfortunately, he wouldn’t be able to become a Divine Lord of Star Ocean in the Changshen Sect.” Luo Changshen shook his head.
“You mean, Chen Beixuan?” the Goddess of the Changshen Sect said.
“That’s right. He can kill a Nascent Soul Cultivator at the Golden Core Level. Even though Nascent Soul Cultivators on Planet Tianhuang are much weaker than normal, they’re still powerful and talented. Disregarding whether he won the battle with his own power or with a treasure, such a cultivator can rarely be seen even deep in the universe and is comparable to a Divine Prince.
“And yet, only three cultivators can have this opportunity. Lord Gu and Yuanlong have got their places, so he should run as fast as he can if he’s clever. Yuanlong is nothing like the Nascent Soul Cultivators on Planet Tianhuang.”
Luo Changshen heaved a sigh.
His eyes glittered and he finally showed his real appearance. He was like a superior king and he looked down at Chen Fan and the others expressionlessly, as if they were ants.
Lord Gu even stood with his hands behind him and glanced over the deity ground.
He had seen too many talents. If that day were an ordinary day, he might have asked Chen Fan to join the “Devil God Sect” and taken him to see different worlds, but he couldn’t just give up a cultivation chance.
“Grandpa, that girl is so beautiful. Save her and let her be my maid.”
The girl pointed at Xiao Mang as she sucked her thumb.
“Alright, my little girl. Even if you ask for the stars, I can give them to you, let alone a simple maid,” Lord Gu said with a gentle smile.
Xiao Mang watched Lord Gu and Yuanlong decide her own fate and was so enraged her face became flushed, but thinking thoroughly, she felt that something wasn’t right.
Yuanlong, Luo Changshen or Lord Gu.
They all came from an unimaginably powerful background.
The Goddess of the Changshen Heavenly Region was only like a maid next to Luo Changshen. Lord Gu had even taught the Ancestral Patriarch of the Zi family ten thousand years before, and “Devil King Palace,” one of the five imperishable sects on Planet Tianhuang, was a branch of his sect. So, how terrifying were they?
This was the first time—
Xiao Mang discovered something hidden behind the world and she seemed to have unveiled part of the truth.
