387: Chapter 392 Jiang Taixu’s Resurrection 387: Chapter 392 Jiang Taixu’s Resurrection A few undying old demons had survived for over 4,000 years, a rarity in the world, naturally knowing many secrets unknown to mon people.
However, one of them unexpectedly mentioned the words “God-beating Whip,” which truly shocked Ye Fan.
Could it be that he had dealings with Qi Refiners before?
On the other side of the starry sky, in ancient myths, there is a God-beating Whip.
When Ye Fan found the Wooden Whip, he felt it was similar, so he gave it that name.
“What is the God-beating Whip?” Another old demon was puzzled and asked his panion next to him.
The others held their breaths, listening intently.
The scene just now was too bizarre; Ye Fan, a little cultivator, had actually whipped an old demon, knocking him over, which was truly astonishing.
“Two thousand years ago, I saw someone outside the Undying Mountain.
He carried a Wooden Whip, almost identical to this weapon.” This old demon had encountered a peculiar cultivator near the Undying Mountain.
They engaged in a fierce battle, where the demon suffered a heavy loss and fled, deeply remembering this weapon.
“This Wooden Whip injured you?” Another old demon was surprised.
Not far away, the eyes of the old demon who had just been whipped emitted two terrifying beams of light, staring at Ye Fan within the Great Emperor Array.
“You three decayed corpses, do you dare to fight again?” Ye Fan wielded the God-beating Whip and challenged.
He had no other choice; if the Great Emperor Array were broken, he would be doomed, so he pletely let loose.
“BUZZ!” Crimson divine scan surged like a galaxy as another old demon attacked.
The terrifying Divine Sense Power pierced through the void like monstrous waves.
Their physical bodies had decayed, but the power of their divine sense had ascended to an unimaginable level, enough to make anyone’s heart skip a beat.
However, Ye Fan was not afraid of this.
No matter how monstrous their divine sense, he just struck with the whip, delivering a fierce and unparalleled blow!
“PUFF!” The vast sea of divine sense, surging like a tide, seemed to be calmed by the Sea Calming Pearl, no longer as violent.
It was split open by the downward swing of the God-beating Whip.
“BOOM!” Ye Fan was sent flying, shaken by the immense power, falling hundreds of feet away, just as before.
And that old demon let out a cry of alarm, being whipped over and nearly falling to the ground, almost identical to the previous old demon.
“Indeed, a divine artifact specifically for striking divine scan; this is a Secret Treasure!” The old demon’s eyes were fervent.
A Secret Treasure was not a conventional weapon but a blade with a special purpose.
Its might may not be immense, but it possessed extremely unique effects.
Many Saint Master Level figures had eyes full of fervor.
If they could fully understand this weapon and inscribe its Dao Glyphs onto other weapons, it would have endless wondrous benefits.
“Even with rare treasures, what of it?
In the face of absolute power, all external forces are illusions!” An old demon stepped forward, an Exquisite Tower shooting out from between his brows.
His body was decayed, but this tower was holy and bright, as if polished from seven-colored glaze, emitting graceful five-colored divine light, incredibly mesmerizing.
“DONG!” The Treasure Tower quivered, transforming into a seven-colored divine rainbow, charging into the Great Emperor Array.
It aimed to suppress Ye Fan.
As long as the tower body didn’t shatter, the old demon’s divine scan embedded within meant he wasn’t afraid of the God-beating Whip.
“CLANG!” Ye Fan swung the Wooden Whip, striking the seven-colored Divine Tower, creating a sky-shattering sound and sending the Treasure Tower flying like a meteor streaking across the sky.
“Zombie, you are not qualified; you are no match for me!” Ye Fan shamelessly taunted, intentionally provoking him.
This time, he stood strategically.
The old demon’s divine scan could only barely reach this place, blocked by the Array Patterns, unable to exert full force.
“Brat!” The old demon’s words were chilling.
He once again released the Seven-Colored Glazed Divine Tower, which rapidly enlarged and descended towards Ye Fan, intending to capture him.
“BUZZ!” Ye Fan’s fingers turned a pale gold, his physical divine energy boundless.
He swung the God-beating Whip as if it could shatter the sky.
“CLANG!” This time, Ye Fan’s strength was immense, almost sending the Divine Tower towards the Dragon Transformation Pool, nearly breaking free from the old demon’s control.
The old demon had the urge to cough up blood.
Even if Ye Fan possessed the God-beating Whip, it posed no real threat to them, because the three of them were too powerful.
Yet this little bastard’s position was so despicable; it was just barely reachable, but they were pletely ineffective, unable to strike him.
“Zombie, can you do it or not?” Ye Fan, wielding the God-beating Whip, arrogantly mocked the old demon, saying, “If not, why don’t all three of you e together?” “BOOM!” The three old demons, having lived for such a long age, had long ago disregarded the rules of the mortal world, doing as they pleased, unconcerned with others’ opinions.
A Seven-Colored Glazed Divine Tower, a Soul Summoning Banner, and a White Bone Staff transformed into divine radiance, charging over to kill Ye Fan.
They didn’t want to join forces; rather, each of them desired to slay him individually, so they all attacked without considering others’ opinions.
“DONG, DONG…” In front of the Dragon Transformation Pool, it sounded like forging iron, producing loud resonating noises.
Ye Fan’s fingers became pletely golden, and the force he struck with was unparalleled.
In the distance, everyone’s expression changed.
They looked at Ye Fan, feeling something strange.
The physical strength of this young man was too formidable!
Even the elder generation figures felt jittery, sensing that they might not gain the upper hand if they engaged him in a physical fight.
This whip was most suitable for Ye Fan to use.
It couldn’t be controlled with divine sense; it could only be wielded with one’s body, as if it was a sacred weapon tailor-made for his current stage.
Wielding the God-beating Whip almost collapsed the void.
“BUZZ!” The God-beating Whip vibrated slightly.
Ye Fan quietly utilized the “All” technique from the nine secret arts, increasing his physical strength tenfold.
Suddenly exerting force, he struck the three heavy artifacts towards the Dragon Transformation Pool.
At that moment, he didn’t know how many strikes he had unleashed, the force震ing people’s eardrums until they were numb.
Eventually, he sent the Seven-Colored Glazed Divine Tower flying out, breaking free from the old demon’s control.
“DONG!” Jiang Yun made a move, using the broken battle halberd to stabilize the Treasure Tower and quickly seal it, preventing its escape.
The distance was too great, and blocked by the Great Emperor Array, that old demon was powerless to retrieve it.
Everyone was shocked; even the three old demons could hardly believe how Ye Fan had suddenly displayed such powerful physical strength.
“Zombies, you are no match!” Ye Fan chuckled lightly, shaking his finger.
He knew that even with the God-beating Whip in hand, he could not severely injure the three demons who were over 4,000 years old; he was merely buying time.
“Junior, we’ll let you be triumphant and arrogant for now!” The three old demons ceased any unnecessary moves, focusing solely on breaking the Great Emperor Array, preparing to rush in and annihilate everyone.
No matter how Ye Fan provoked them, they ignored him.
Eventually, Jiang Yun wielded the God-beating Whip to face the three old demons, yet still couldn’t overe them.
The crowd was horrified; even with a weapon that restrained the three decayed corpses, in the face of absolute power, nothing could defy fate.
Those who lived in Jiang Taixu’s era, for over 4,000 years, hadn’t just been passing time; these were beings from the same generation as the ancestral masters of all Saint Master Level figures.
Time passed, and after an hour, the Great Emperor Array was mostly broken.
In less than half an hour, it would surely be pletely erased.
“The divine king’s extinction is imminent!” Thirteen Peacock Kings shouted, pressuring the Jiang Family.
At this time, in the Dragon Transformation Pool, over a dozen elders sent waves of Life Essence into the old divine king’s body, helping him dissolve the Dragon Pearl Fruit to defy fate and change destiny.
Golden light emanated from his body.
The withered skin gained moisture and a hint of luster appeared, yet he remained still, silent without a trace of life.
“Jiang Taixu, you are doomed!” “I want to devour his divine body to avenge 4,000 years of hatred!” The three old demons lashed out viciously, the light in their eyes growing more terrifying, destroying one Innate Pattern after another.
“What do we do?” The people of the Jiang Family were utterly desperate.
If the three demons attacked, no one could stop them.
“Brother Taixu…
Brother Taixu…” Suddenly, a ghostly voice echoed, reverberating throughout the entire divine city, heard by everyone.
This voice was very faint, sometimes to the east, sometimes to the west, sometimes south, sometimes north.
It rapidly approached the Dragon Transformation Pool, and everyone’s expressions changed.
Its speed was too fast, astounding people.
“Who is this!?” To address Jiang Taixu as ‘brother’ meant their age must be terrifyingly old; this was undoubtedly a peerless person alive for over 4,000 years.
“SWISH!” With a flash of light, an old woman with a face full of wrinkles appeared in the field.
Her body was hunched, her white hair sparse, and she held a cane, entering like a specter.
One could say she looked incredibly old, yet she wore a Five-Colored Feather Robe, which didn’t match her age.
The most shocking thing was the bloody hole in her chest, with blood flowing profusely.
It was almost pierced through, translucent from front to back.
“Brother Taixu…
it’s been 4,000 years.
I finally see you again!” The old woman wept, tears streaming down her face.
“I have grown old, my youth is gone.
I really don’t want you to see me like this.” “Fairy Caiyun?!” The three old demons were astounded, looking as if they had seen a ghost, seemingly not expecting anyone from their generation to still be alive.
“If you three want to take my Brother Taixu’s life, you will have to step over my corpse first!” This old woman’s white hair danced as she pointed her cane forward.
A terrifying pressure burst forth, and hundreds to thousands of lines appeared, intertwining.
“This is…” “The Order of Heaven and Earth!” The thirteen Saint Master Level figures were shocked.
The force exerted by the old woman wasn’t overwhelmingly frightening, but it displayed such a scene.
For someone over 4,000 years old and undying, their fighting method was pletely different.
They wielded the Great Dao, unleashing the order of heaven and earth, not just simple divine energy.
This was an understanding of the Dao, a more terrifying form of battle.
The three old demons dared not be careless; she was a life-and-death enemy of their generation, possessing both physical power and grand divine scan, more terrifying than they.
“Fairy Caiyun, is this necessary?
Back then, you couldn’t marry him.
Now 4,000 years have passed, can you still not let him go?” an old demon shouted lowly, seeming to be very apprehensive of the old woman.
“So it’s her!” The Jiang Family members, along with the thirteen Saint Master Level figures, were all shocked, speculating on the old woman’s identity.
She was the former sacred lady of the Wanchu Sacred Land, and once Jiang Taixu’s confidante.
As a sacred lady, she couldn’t marry outside.
There was no way for Fairy Caiyun to be with Jiang Taixu.
Divine King Jiang had invaded the Wanchu Sacred Land to take her away.
However, Fairy Caiyun, mindful of her mentor’s kindness, ultimately did not leave.
Yet, she never married the Saint Heir, spending the rest of her life alone in the Ancient Cave, never again stepping into the mortal world.
People never expected she was still alive.
What was even more shocking was, who had injured her?
Her heart was nearly pierced through, blood gushing out.
“BUZZ!” The confrontation of the world’s Order, the collision of tangible Laws; Fairy Caiyun’s body bled as she battled the three old demons!
Many Saint Master Level figures kept their distance.
If struck by such power of Order, the consequences would be unpredictable and absolutely terrifying.
“Senior, quickly enter!” Jiang Yun transmitted his voice to her, instructing her on how to enter the Great Emperor Array.
Though the old woman was powerful, she couldn’t possibly resist three old demons alone.
If such a significant reinforcement quickly perished here, it would be far too regrettable.
“SWISH!” With a flash of light, Fairy Caiyun evaded the three old demons and entered the Array Patterns, arriving at the Dragon Transformation Pool.
She trembled almost imperceptibly, then fell into the pool, holding Jiang Taixu in her embrace.
“Brother Taixu…
you must live…” She cried like rain, seeing Jiang Taixu’s emaciated frame, unable to hold back her tears.
She injected her own strands of Divine Essence into Jiang Taixu’s body; divine light, as bright as Pilean, illuminated the entire Dragon Transformation Pool.
“Senior Caiyun, you don’t need to do this; the divine medicine in the Divine King Ancestor’s body can revive him.
You don’t need to exhaust your own Life Essence,” said the elderly people around, all moved as they tried to persuade her.
“My vitality is gone; there’s no way for me to live on.
You don’t need to say more.” Divine Essence constantly streamed from Fairy Caiyun’s head, merging into Jiang Taixu’s body.
She stroked Jiang Taixu’s face with her hand, tears falling as she said, “It’s been 4,000 years since we parted.
You were as handsome as jade in the past, full of youthful spirit, but now you’ve aged into this state.” Tears continued to fall from Fairy Caiyun’s murky eyes as she said, “In those years, you conquered the world; who dared to oppose you?
Now, returning in your declining years, so many want to kill you.” “Brother Taixu…
don’t die…” she murmured, nearly begging, as if she had returned to 4,000 years ago.
“Please stop depleting your Life Essence; the Divine King Ancestor would surely refuse if he knew,” Jiang Yun advised again.
“I’m already done for.
Quickly let Taixu revive.” Fairy Caiyun shook her head.
“Senior, what exactly happened?
Who injured you like this?” Jiang Yun asked, feeling the situation was extremely serious.
Such a powerful being had been gravely wounded, signifying the presence of even more terrifying characters lurking in the shadows.
“A very frightening person.
Only Taixu’s revival can deal with him…” Fairy Caiyun had traversed the void using the Divine City Stone Order collected by the Wanchu Sacred Land; this was the only way to enter the currently sealed ancient city.
She came specifically to rescue Divine King Jiang, confronting a terrifying figure above the Underground Palace, and was injured to this extent.
“What?
There’s such a person lurking in the shadows?!” Even Jiang Yun felt a touch of despair, saying, “It must be him controlling the Great Emperor’s Holy Weapon, fighting against the Hengyu Divine Furnace.” “BOOM!” The Great Emperor Array was breached.
The three old demons laughed repeatedly, their words chilling to the bone.
“We’re sending all of you on your way!” “Fairy Caiyun, you can renew your ties with Jiang Taixu in the underworld!” The old woman gently laid Jiang Taixu into the Dragon Transformation Pool, walked to the shore, took one last look at Jiang Taixu, then charged towards the three old demons.
At that moment, only she could momentarily hold off characters of the same era; others could not stop them, and Ye Fan had already handed the God-beating Whip to her.
“BUZZ!” This was a life-and-death battle.
The Order of heaven and earth interwove, repeatedly colliding between the two sides.
They weren’t truly close, yet it was even more perilous.
“PUFF!” Several bloody holes appeared successively on Fairy Caiyun’s body, inflicted by the Heaven and Earth Law Power.
Even as strong as she was, she couldn’t withstand three Undying Demons of the same era.
“BOOM!” At the same time, the thirteen Saint Master Level figures advanced with great strides, equally terrifying.
Despair filled everyone present.
How could they defy the heavens now?
“DONG!” Fairy Caiyun stood in front, blocking all thirteen Saint Master Level figures.
But although these Heroic Lords weren’t as old as her, they were top figures of the world today, equally terrifying.
With so many standing together, gods would be slain if they blocked the way, Buddhas would be killed if they stood in opposition.
The old woman was instantly knocked flying, her body nearly shattered.
Amid the cracking of bones, lines of纹络 burst from Fairy Caiyun’s body, and her hunched frame straightened considerably.
She merged her body with the world’s Order, burned her divine energy, and drove the Dao to fend off these people.
However, no matter how strong she was, she could not withstand the three old demons plus thirteen Saint Master Level figures.
“Brother Taixu, today we’ll die together…” The old woman smiled sadly.
“All of you, go die!” The thirteen Saint Master Level figures advanced with great power, possessing unparalleled terrifying might.
“Divine King Ancestor, I, Jiang Hi, have e to rescue you!” A mighty shout reverberated, and an unparalleled, terrifying pressure descended upon the shattered Underground Palace from above, sending chills down everyone’s spine!
A gigantic Demon Jar fell from the sky, seeming to swallow heaven and earth, attempting to absorb everything into it.
“Ancient Heaven-devouring Demon Jar?!” Everyone was shocked, feeling their souls being suppressed, almost to the point of tearing apart.
“BOOM!” The enormous earthen jar pressed down, forcing the three old demons and thirteen Saint Master Level individuals to involuntarily dodge and fly back.
Half a peak weapon!
This was unlike any other weapon; if hit, body and soul would be utterly annihilated.
The ninth great bandit, Jiang Hi, had e.
He had borrowed the Heaven-devouring Demon Jar from the Flickering Light Sacred Master, used it to break the seal of the divine city, and闯ed in to rescue his ancestor.
“No one can revive a ruined Great Emperor’s Holy Weapon unless wielded by ancient sages; otherwise, no one could unleash power akin to the Hengyu Holy Furnace!” The three old demons laughed coldly.
Only a sovereign could revive a Great Emperor’s Holy Weapon, allowing it to manifest Extreme Divine Power; otherwise, in ordinary hands, it remained lifeless.
If it was a damaged peak weapon, it required ancient sages to activate it to unleash Extreme Divine Power, presenting even stricter demands.
“It may not be able to manifest Extreme Divine Power, but it’s enough for self-preservation!” Jiang Hi shouted, holding the sacred weapon as he came before the Dragon Transformation Pool.
“Ancestor, I have e to rescue you.” “BUZZ!” The Ancient Heaven-devouring Demon Jar quickly expanded, enveloping the area and sealing the Dragon Transformation Pool below.
Even though the holy weapon of the ancient Great Emperor had not fully revived, it was still terrifyingly potent.
Even slight ripples of its power caused the thirteen Saint Master Level individuals to shiver in fear.
The unexpected arrival of the ninth great bandit, Jiang Hi, at the critical moment with half of a peak weapon resolved the current crisis.
However, the crowd knew that without Fairy Caiyun, even an Immortal King would have been helpless; it was she who had blocked the monstrous figures, shielding everyone.
But now, she herself was on the brink of death, her life slipping away.
Her body was pierced by the Heaven and Earth Law Power in multiple places, her vital organs had vanished, and her life force was extinguished.
“Brother Taixu…
do you know?
I have e to see you…
after 4,000 years…
we are reunited…” She trembled as she entered the Dragon Transformation Pool, holding Jiang Taixu and gently caressing his cheeks.
“I truly wish I could walk with you under the setting sun, but alas…
there is no time left.
You will never…
hear my voice again.” Fairy Caiyun’s dimming eyes grew darker.
Those present could not bear to interrupt, quietly watching them.
With a gentle cry, endless divine radiance burst from her body, infusing into Jiang Taixu.
“Brother Taixu…
once you sought the Earth Essence Fruit for me, to supplement my Life Essence…
wishing for us to live another 4,000 years together…
to decay together in this mortal world.
I waited for you…
but alas…
I cannot witness your revival myself.” The old woman imbued all her enormous Qi into Jiang Taixu’s body.
Her flesh suddenly withered, her eyes wholly darkened, and she murmured, “I wish I could return to 4,500 years ago…
if time could be rewritten…
Brother Taixu…
I would go with you…
instead of staying in the Sacred Lands…” The old woman’s oil had run dry and her lamp had dimmed; she had no strength left.
Her gray lips quivered, yet she could not speak.
Beside her, the younger generation of the Jiang Family wept silently, scarcely able to bear the sight.
“I…
do not wish…” The old woman’s lips quivered; she wanted to say something, yet was unable to articulate it.
Many knelt down, listening intently.
Ye Fan tremblingly asked, “Elder, what do you wish to say?” Only after Jiang Yun transferred Divine Essence to her could the old woman speak.
“After I die…
cover my corpse with a white cloth.
Tell Taixu…
not to uncover it and see me…
I do not wish for him to see me like this.
I want his memory…
to always be of me from 4,000 years ago.” “Senior…” All present were cultivators, their hearts firm and resolute, yet this moment was unbearable, stirring the urge to weep.
“Senior Caiyun…” Many could not help but choke back sobs.
“Brother Taixu…
ultimately…
I cannot walk with you…” After saying this, the last twinkle in the old woman’s eyes vanished.
Her head silently drooped, and she leaned against Jiang Taixu’s side.
“Senior Caiyun…” Many shouted, their vision pletely blurred.
“The divine king’s eyes…
there’s a glistening tear; he perceived it all!” Everyone present felt sorrowful yet shocked to discover that at the corner of Jiang Taixu’s dried eyes, a glistening tear quietly rolled down.
“The Ancestor’s subconscious heard it all…” “Don’t have any regrets, Senior Caiyun.
The Ancestor’s dormant subconscious knows everything…” Many cried mournfully.
All joined forces to help Jiang Taixu refine the divine medicine.
The process was far shorter than anyone imagined, taking merely half a day before the divine king began to revive slowly.
After another quarter of an hour, he suddenly opened his eyes, emitting two brilliant beams of Divine Radiance.
Yet, he did not move for a long time, quietly gazing at the old woman beside him.
Then, Divine King Jiang Taixu abruptly stood up.
Holding the old woman’s body in his arms, he stood in the Dragon Transformation Pool and released a grief-stricken roar to the heavens, “Ah…” This roar shook heaven and earth, reverberated through the divine city, soared upwards to the clouds, and startled everyone.
