Chapter 8: The Gospel of Waste Materials
It must be said that to become the leader of a major power, these five have decisiveness that ordinary people do not possess. Any one of them who obtains the Blood Demon Palace will clearly understand the consequences, and from then on, that family will surely rise to dominance, surpassing the five major powers!
Apart from the Jiuli Sect, the other four major forces were just a legacy of one great emperor. If any of them had obtained the legacy of the Blood God Emperor in the Blood Demon Palace, it would have truly broken the balance. They didn't not want to get it, but they didn't want to see others get it, so at almost the same time, they simultaneously launched an attack on the Blood Demon Palace with imperial soldier replicas.
Although these five instruments are only imperial sword replicas, they contain a hint of the Great Emperor's aura, making them completely different, with power far exceeding that of ordinary magical instruments. As someone said before, if a true Imperial Sword were to appear, it could even sink the entire continent, demonstrating just how powerful an Imperial Sword is.
The Divine Bell, the Immortal Vase, the Precious Mirror, the Heavenly Sword, and the Yin-Yang Diagram, these five extremely powerful artifacts, carrying an aura of destruction that could destroy heaven and earth, struck towards the Blood-colored Palace. Wherever they passed, mountains crumbled, rivers evaporated, and even the stars hid their light, as if it were the end of the world.
A streak of extreme light illuminates the world, shining for thousands of miles, and a hint of the rhythm of the Tao can be vaguely seen, which is terrifyingly unusual.
Hmmm...
A strange sound echoed through the heavens and earth. In the face of the attack by the five strongest artifacts, the Blood Palace suddenly rose with a brilliant red glow, covering the sky and earth, firmly protecting the Blood Demon Palace.
Crunch...
Crunch...
Crunch...
Crunch...
Crunch...
Five consecutive 'cracks' rang out, and the five strongest artifacts that possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth surprisingly shattered simultaneously. The terrifying aura that overflowed also dissipated along with them.
At this sight, the five leaders widened their eyes and muttered: "This...the Emperor's unparalleled formation?"
Anything in the world, as long as it is related to the Great Emperor, becomes different. Like an array, if an ordinary person sets up an array with a power of one part, but if the Great Emperor sets up the same array, its power will be ten parts, twenty parts, fifty parts, or even one hundred parts!
Can instantly destroy the forbidden device that contains a hint of the Great Emperor's aura, except for the formation laid down by the Great Emperor, they can't think of any other possibility. Of course, the real Imperial Sword also has such power, but the key is that they didn't even sense the aura belonging to the Imperial Sword!
"This is the emperor's bedroom, what do you want to do?"
Just as everyone was stunned, a faint and ethereal voice suddenly appeared in the air, and people felt that it was like an echo in their hearts. Then, a powerful aura spread out, causing everyone's body to tremble uncontrollably, and they fell to the ground in droves.
Is the Blood Emperor still alive?
That ethereal and elusive voice, accompanied by the unparalleled aura unique to the Great Emperor, caused everyone to begin doubting. They suspected that the Blood God Emperor had not actually died; otherwise, why would those five peerless artifacts suddenly shatter? Who else could possess such ability besides the Great Emperor?
The crowd was equally perplexed, feeling the overwhelming aura, his body trembling uncontrollably, almost kneeling down when a burst of majestic energy suddenly rose within him, countering the unique aura of the Great Emperor outside, making him stand out in the crowd like a crane among chickens.
Apart from Huoran, the leaders of the five major forces did not kneel down either, but their bodies were also trembling severely. Upon hearing the voice that seemed to be that of the Blood God Emperor, the five immediately bowed towards the Blood Demon Palace and said: "We juniors have no intention of offending the Blood God Emperor, it's just that before his death, the Emperor had said that if the Blood Demon Palace were to appear, it would represent that the Emperor would seek a transmigrator from another generation. Today, the Blood Demon Palace has appeared, and that is why we have come here..."
The leader of the five major forces fell silent, and only then did everyone realize that the Blood God Emperor was really dead. It makes sense, even if it's an emperor, it's impossible to live for tens of thousands of years, otherwise, who else could continue to ascend to the invincible position in these tens of thousands of years?
For the Great Emperor, no one has a clear understanding of the four major forces. After all, they are the descendants of the Great Emperor and must know more than ordinary people. However, since the Blood God Emperor is already dead, why can he still speak at this time, and what's with that terrifying aura that only belongs to the Great Emperor?
"Not bad, I indeed said before my death that the Blood Demon Palace would produce a transcendent being, and I would find a successor from a different generation. But you people have indeed offended me, if I weren't already dead, there would only be one thread of Tao left, and I would have to wash you all in blood!"
It is said that the Blood God Emperor was a man with an extreme fondness for killing before his ascension to the throne, with countless lives lost at his hands. His path to becoming emperor was one of unprecedented brutality and carnage, littered with corpses and bones. It wasn't until everyone heard the Blood God Emperor utter two words that they realized the rumors were true - only someone like him would say "bloodbath".
It seems that even in death, one can still sense the fear that their words will evoke in others. In the midst of a silent voice, the faint and ethereal sound rises again: "Enough, enough, this emperor has been dead for tens of thousands of years, now only the Dao rhyme remains, and I won't bother to settle accounts with you. But as for my successor..."
"In order to better cultivate the Emperor's Law, one must be born with a useless body and have no spiritual roots. Whoever among you is such a person can try entering the Blood Demon Palace!"
Boom...
The Blood God Emperor's words instantly caused a stir. They did not expect that the Blood God Emperor would choose an heir who was not exceptionally talented, but instead chose someone with no spiritual roots. Could it be that the Blood God Emperor wanted to create another legend of someone born with a useless body, yet still managed to reach the pinnacle?
Unlike others, when Huan Ran heard the words of the Blood God Emperor, he suddenly felt that this moment was like ascending from hell to heaven. He felt that the world was so beautiful, the mountains and rivers were so magnificent, and even the air he breathed became exceptionally fresh.
Born with a useless body, completely without spiritual roots? That's me!
Indeed, the Blood God Emperor's words are no different from a gospel for the useless people. In front of some people who have absolutely no hope of cultivation, he has opened up a wide and flat road. Everyone knows that the Blood God Emperor is just an ordinary person with no spiritual roots, but he has climbed to the top of the world step by step, looking down on the world. This makes people without spiritual roots have reason to believe that as long as they inherit the legacy of the Blood God Emperor, even if they can't become a second Blood God Emperor, at least they will become a famous figure in their generation!
The leaders of the five major forces furrowed their brows as the voice of the Blood God Emperor fell. They had not expected the Blood God Emperor to pass on his legacy in this way, but after a moment's consideration, they understood. Perhaps the Blood God Emperor's technique was only suitable for those without any spiritual roots within them to cultivate.
Then they gave an order to the disciples of the gatekeeper, to find a useless body with no spiritual root in the shortest time!
At this time, the young lady of the Mu family, Mu Qingling, also known as the purple-clothed girl who brought Huo Ran back to the Mu family, found Huo Ran and meant for him to enter the Blood Demon Palace and obtain the inheritance of the Blood God Emperor.
In the Blood Demon Palace thousands of miles away, Huo Ran suddenly heard Mu Qingling's words and seemed very calm. He sat on the ground with a thud, letting the gentle breeze scatter his long hair that had already reached his shoulders. "You great powers shouldn't just give someone a big gift for no reason, right?"
Listening to Huo Ran's words, which seemed to carry a hint of resentment, Mu Qingling smiled and sat down beside him, saying: "Of course, after all, there's no such thing as a free lunch. To be honest with you, the reason I brought you back to the Mu residence in the first place was because I discovered your uniqueness; and now, giving you a glimmer of hope for no reason is also a transaction."
Mo Qingling was very clever and knew that hiding the truth from Huo Ran would only lead to his contempt. And after Mo Qingling finished speaking, Huo Ran sneered: "A deal? Is it that once I obtain the inheritance of the Blood God Emperor, I will have to swear lifelong allegiance to the Mo family?"
"Or what do you think?" Mu Qingling gave him a cold glance, then pointed to the crowd thousands of miles away and said: "Don't think there's anything awkward about it. Those people who want to serve the Mu family haven't even had a chance yet. And entering the Mu family, apart from having that bit of responsibility on their bodies, they're no different from ordinary people!"
"Is that so?" To this, Huo Ran just smiled faintly. For a person living on Earth in the 21st century, freedom is the most important thing, and Huo Ran himself was not someone who liked to be bound by constraints. Otherwise, relying on his abilities, he could easily enter a foreign company and earn tens or hundreds of millions in annual salary, why bother with the hard work of starting his own business?
