Shrouding the Heavens Chapter 377 - 378 Chapter 383 Slaying the Divine King

378: Chapter 383: Slaying the Divine King 378: Chapter 383: Slaying the Divine King The Unending Great Emperor’s immortal remains, the Unending Great Emperor’s inheritance, the Unending Great Emperor living on the Dao Platform…

In the Divine City, the name ‘Unending Great Emperor’ became the most frequently mentioned topic.

On this day, everyone was discussing it, their opinions varying widely.

No one had ever possessed such influence.

Anything related to him inevitably became the focus of the world’s attention.

Besides this, there was another minor focal point: Ye Fan.

He had cut out so many astounding treasures, making many people intensely envious.

The old Red Dragon Daoist disappeared without a trace.

Many knew he must have been apprehensive; after all, he had once hunted the Peacock King.

Now that the Peacock King had summoned a sacred weapon, the Daoist certainly couldn’t remain.

If people from the Sacred Lands trapped him here wielding the Great Emperor’s Weapons, even if the Red Dragon Daoist possessed heaven-defying abilities, he would still be obliterated in body and soul.

No one in this world could contend with the Great Emperor’s sacred weapons.

Although he had left, the people from the ancient families skilled in Source Techniques dared not turn against Ye Fan.

As long as the Red Dragon Daoist was still alive, it made no difference whether he was physically present or not.

This time, Ye Fan’s harvest was too abundant.

He and Nangong Qi had cut out treasures of immeasurable value, shining so brightly it caused hearts to flutter.

Ancient Insect Divine Source, the skull of an Ancient Royal Family member, and two Divine Sources the size of human heads—these alone exceeded two million jin of Pure Source.

The eyes of everyone present widened.

Even though many people there had significant backgrounds and had witnessed grand scenes, they were still stunned.

Such a vast accumulation of divine treasures was enough to make anyone’s heart pound and leave them in shock.

Even Nangong Qi, who had weathered many storms, was pale and dizzy, his heart feeling as if it were bleeding.

He and three other Source Technique Masters had spent many days observing stones at the Shaking Light Stone Workshop, exhausting their mental energy and nearly depleting their Yuan Qi, only to select these three precious items.

Unexpectedly, they still lost.

Initially, he had wanted to return the wondrous treasures he cut out to the Shaking Light Stone Workshop to avoid creating enmity, as ancient families skilled in Source Techniques generally did not gamble at a Sacred Land Stone Workshop.

But now, everything was for naught.

Not only had he suffered grievous losses, but he had also pletely offended the Shaking Light Stone Workshop.

This was definitely no small trouble.

“The bet, one million five hundred thousand jin of Pure Source, must be paid in Divine Sources!” Li Heishui loudly reminded him.

Nangong Qi nearly vomited blood.

Besides the wondrous treasures he had cut out, he had to pay such a large additional amount of Source.

This was infuriating to the extreme.

“You are all truly generous, embodying the ancient path’s warm-hearted valor.

Such profound gratitude is beyond words,” Ye Fan said.

The young men from the ancient families skilled in Source Techniques stared at Li Heishui’s dark face, wishing they could rush over and stomp on it with their shoe soles.

Every one of them felt almost internally wounded, so furious they could hardly bear it.

“You brat, I’ll remember you!” one of the disciples from the ancient families skilled in Source Techniques said angrily, pointing at Li Heishui, his body trembling.

Even though these wondrous treasures were sealed, they still radiated a brilliant splendor that mesmerized onlookers and stirred their hearts, a dazzling and captivating sight.

A heap of wondrous treasures lay there, radiating a myriad of lights that made it hard to open one’s eyes.

Just thinking about it could drive someone mad, and many people felt the impulse to kill and seize the treasures.

This was a pile of astonishing divine treasures, like something from a legend.

How many had ever seen so many at once?

Even all the Saint Heirs and Sacred Ladies were breathing rapidly.

With so many wondrous treasures, what couldn’t one achieve?

Establishing sects, exchanging scriptures, buying Ancient Pills, purchasing peerless Weapons…

All of this incited an impulse to mit crimes; it was far too tempting.

The most precious item of all was that Qilin Seed.

It was not counted among these wondrous treasures and had long been sealed by Ye Fan in a small jade cauldron.

“Quickly put it away!

Those old men’s eyes are red, as if they’ve taken an aphrodisiac.

They’re about to pounce,” Li Heishui muttered quietly.

Even the Saint Heirs and Sacred Ladies felt the urge to rush over and rob him, let alone others.

SWISH!

Ye Fan’s robe sleeve swept out, collecting all the wondrous treasures at once.

Luckily, they were all Divine Sources.

If they had been Pure Source, it would have formed a mountain, making them difficult to gather.

The divine items vanished.

Many older figures rushed forward, pulling and tugging.

For them, the turmoil caused by the Unending Great Emperor was irrelevant; the most urgent matter was solving the problem of their lifespans.

“You old scoundrels are too ruthless…” Li Heishui cursed as he scrambled and crawled away, nearly trampled underfoot.

His clothes were almost stripped off, and his shoes were pletely stomped away.

In the center of the crowd, Ye Fan couldn’t break free.

His clothes were nearly torn to shreds by the passionate old men, leaving him unable to cope.

“Auction!

I will auction them at the Heavenly Demon Treasure Pavilion!” he shouted loudly, unable to stand it anymore.

The crowd didn’t disperse.

He was mobbed for a full hour before he managed to escape.

「For the next two days」 Ye Fan and Pang Bo hid in the Heavenly Demon Treasure Pavilion, daring not to go out, for they would be surrounded by people wherever they went.

People from all the Sacred Lands had e with a clear purpose: they wanted to buy the Qilin Seed, which for them was a priceless holy divine relic.

The assault on Purple Mountain had caused an enormous disturbance.

During these two days, astonishing news continually emerged, but people found it hard to distinguish truth from falsehood.

Divine King Jiang Taixu is still alive!

This news spread, shaking the Northern Region and stunning the Eastern Wastelands.

This was the only confirmed piece of news; the rest were yet to be verified.

“A person who lived for nearly five thousand years…” “Sealed for four thousand years, and he actually survived!” The Divine City was in an uproar.

Many people couldn’t remain calm.

This news was too shocking.

Without a doubt, the biggest winner this time was the Jiang Family.

Whether they had obtained the No Beginning Scripture or not, the Jiang Family had already returned with a full harvest.

Moreover, Divine King Jiang Taixu controlled the Fighting Saint Technique, acclaimed as the Eastern Wastelands’ supreme divine technique with the greatest Attack Power!

Unbelievable!

To survive for four thousand years without dying—the Divine King’s life force is truly tenacious!

Now that the Jiang Family has obtained one of the Nine Secret Arts, who can pete with them?

No one could stay calm.

The Dou Character Technique, one of the Nine Secret Arts, had emerged, shaking the Eastern Wastelands.

Many people’s eyes reddened with desire as they yearned to seize it.

The Jiang Family was on high alert, guarding Jiang Taixu day and night with an Extreme Dao Weapon, fearing others might exploit the situation.

Jiang Taixu had indeed been rescued, but he was almost indistinguishable from a dead man.

Not only was his physical body nearly withered, but even his divine sense was close to extinguishing.

“Trapped for thousands of years, lacking Spiritual Qi—to have survived is already the greatest miracle in the world!” “Divine King Jiang Taixu, once a vibrant hero in his youth, shook the world at a young age.

Yet upon his reappearance, he is already a hero in his twilight years.” Many lamented that such an outstanding figure of immense talent had met such a fate.

The old Divine King was too weak; there was no way to send him back to the Jiang Family.

The flame of his divine sense might extinguish at any moment.

He could only be sent to the Dragon Transformation Pool in the Divine City.

This pool, as ancient as the Divine City itself, was exceptionally effective for healing.

Ethereal legends said it had once birthed a True Dragon.

This was now their only lifeline.

The Jiang Family hurriedly gathered various spiritual medicines from their stores and offered a hefty price to the world, seeking to purchase a life-saving method.

News that Ye Fan had cut out the Qilin Seed naturally reached the Jiang Family.

Several Grand Elders had already arrived, willing to buy it at a high price to save a life.

At the same time, more people approached Ye Fan, all with the same objective: they wanted to buy the Qilin Seed, regardless of the cost.

“Some people do not wish for the old Divine King to revive,” Yao Yuekong remarked, having immediately assessed the situation.

The human heart…

Ye Fan also nodded.

It was naked petition; many were determined to buy the Qilin Seed, sparing no expense!

Many were unfamiliar faces, some not even revealing their true visages, their origins pletely unknown.

They were specifically targeting the Jiang Family, clearly intent on making things difficult for them.

Li Heishui even suspected that if they weren’t hiding in the Heavenly Demon Treasure Pavilion, they might have been directly killed and the Qilin Seed snatched away.

Ye Fan had no reluctance.

From their first meeting, he had told the Jiang Family that the divine medicine would be reserved only for Divine King Taixu and not given to anyone else.

Divine King Jiang had imparted a great teaching to him, a kindness he would not forget.

“In these two days, we will use various spiritual medicines to first condition the old Divine King’s physical body.

Once it has slightly improved, the urgent need for the Qilin Divine Medicine will arise,” the Jiang Family’s Grand Elder explained.

He elaborated that it was currently unsuitable to use overly potent divine medicine to prolong life; they would have to proceed gradually.

Ye Fan truly wished to give them the Qilin Seed directly.

However, before he could say anything, the Jiang Family’s Grand Elder clearly stated that within a few days, they would gather sufficient Divine Sources to purchase the divine medicine.

He thought about it and refrained from mentioning it, as being too proactive might arouse the Jiang Family’s suspicion.

At the same time, he didn’t want to see the world’s only Qilin Divine Medicine extinguished.

He recalled the Elixir Fruit of the True Dragon Divine Medicine he had recently obtained; perhaps it could serve as a substitute.

The storm was brewing, and winds filled the towers.

Over these two days, the atmosphere in the Divine City was markedly unusual, with a faint sense of oppression.

During the deep nights of these two days, the Divine City was vastly shaken.

Top experts launched a night raid on the Dragon Transformation Pool, killing one of the Jiang Family’s Grand Elders and nearly breaking in.

Were it not for the Hengyu Furnace frightening off the formidable enemy, the old Divine King would likely have been killed.

When the news spread, the Divine City was shocked, and all regions were stunned.

Even though everyone had anticipated that many major forces did not wish for the Divine King’s revival, they hadn’t expected someone to act so swiftly.

Everyone understood that it wouldn’t end here; this might just be the beginning.

The revival of the unparalleled Divine King had too great an impact, and many major forces did not want the Jiang Family to obtain the Nine Secret Arts.

The Jiang Family remained on high alert, guarding the Dragon Transformation Pool day and night with the Extreme Dao Divine Furnace cast from Phoenix Blood Red Gold, and had deployed numerous experts.

When Ye Fan heard this news, he directly invited various powerful figures to witness him handing the Qilin Divine Medicine over to the Heavenly Demon Treasure Pavilion for auction, letting everyone know it was no longer in his possession.

Otherwise, he worried, someone might e the very next night to kill him and seize the Divine Medicine Seeds.

Those hidden individuals dared to break into the Dragon Transformation Pool and even offend the Jiang Family; they would certainly have no qualms about him, a little cultivator with no background.

He predicted that many major forces had the impulse to act, certainly including the Sacred Lands.

These were colossal entities in the clouds, and he definitely didn’t want to unwittingly bee cannon fodder for them.

On this day, the Divine City suddenly tensed.

Within the city, powerful figures whose Blood Qi surged like True Dragons faintly pierced the sky.

Even when auras were concealed, if too many peerless masters arrived, a peculiar disturbance would be sensed, startling many eminent figures.

As nightfall approached, one could clearly see streams of powerful Blood Qi, like True Dragons, rushing into the heavens.

Blood Qi like dragons, stream after stream, penetrated heaven and earth!

Upon seeing such a spectacle, all cultivators’ expressions changed.

What level of cultivation realm must one reach, they wondered, to exhibit such a terrifying Variation, with Blood Qi soaring to the heavens?

“The Divine City is a special place.

When peerless masters arrive with killing intent, a celestial response occurs at night, manifesting visibly,” a veteran figure remarked.

Without a doubt, numerous terrifying individuals had appeared within the city, possibly preparing to deliver thunderous strikes!

Ye Fan, in front of many people, handed over the Divine Medicine Seeds for safekeeping and fled that very day, not daring to stay any longer at the Heavenly Demon Treasure Pavilion.

However, he couldn’t extricate himself.

Since the divine medicine was his, he immediately received invitations from various figures upon stepping out.

Even Li Heishui was startled, exclaiming, “You’ve really bee a hot modity!

People from all the Sacred Lands have invited you.” Ye Fan was also a bit overwhelmed.

The various Saint Heirs and Sacred Ladies had respectively invited him, and emissaries from the Great Sects also brought invitations.

It’s hard to offend anyone.

Where should I go?

All parties were vying to recruit him, requiring him to consider his options carefully.

Li Heishui was stunned.

Pointing to a pink letter, he said, “An Miaoyi invited you.

She evidently wants to make you her favored guest.” (To be continued.
