Chapter 837: Chapter 853: Astounding Situation
“Half-step imperial law?”
Yang Zhen stared at the cheap cat with a face full of disbelief and asked, “Are you sure it’s a half-step imperial law?”
The cheap cat curled its lips and said, “Could this be fake? You can go and ask around yourself. Now, many people know that the Heaven-plundering Creation Spell is an indispensable Cultivation thod in the Demon God Territory. It is said that many disciples there want to cultivate, but are not qualified to do so!”
“Have they gone mad, has the Demon God Territory gone insane?” Yang Zhen looked at the cheap cat with a dazed expression and muttered to himself, “What on earth does the Demon God Territory want to do? Making such a big spectacle right from the start, they must be insane. There has to be a reason; what is it exactly?”
The cheap cat chuckled and said, “Kid, what does it matter to you what they want to do? Don’t ntion the Demon God Territory. Even that place in the legends… even that legendary place hasn’t been able to accomplish the crazed act of destroying heaven and earth. Why are you worried?”
Yang Zhen’s expression beca stern, he took a deep breath and looked aningfully at the cheap cat before saying, “Yeah, what am I worried about? They couldn’t possibly turn against humanity, could they?”
...
“Eh?” The cheap cat was stunned, then clapped its hands and said, “That’s a good term to use. They couldn’t possibly do sothing against humanity. If they did, people from all over the cultivation world would unite to turn the Demon God Territory into ruins once again.”
Yang Zhen sighed with relief and imdiately felt much more at ease. Curiously, he asked, “By the way, what exactly is that endless abyss we saw after entering the Bronze World, and why can’t we see it anymore?”
The cheap cat shook its head and said, “Ever since we were brought into the Demon God Territory, we have never seen that endless abyss again. Now, we can’t even sense that kind of aura anymore. Maybe it’s still underground. It’s better if that thing doesn’t co out. Otherwise, who knows how many people will foolishly jump in to search for hidden treasures?”
Yang Zhen nodded and said, “There must be sothing inside, otherwise it wouldn’t emit such a strange aura. It’s just… now everything is a mystery!”
The endless Bronze Giant Mountains, as well as those bronze ancient trees, and the endless abyss. The Demon God Territory is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface. Moreover, judging by the current actions of the Demon God Territory, if they didn’t have any ulterior motives, Yang Zhen would be a hundred tis skeptical.
The cheap cat chuckled mischievously, looking as if it wanted to dig a hole for the Demon God Territory. It leaned towards Yang Zhen and asked, “Are you going to participate in the path debate or not?”
“Not participating. Whoever wants to participate can do so. Besides, many people don’t understand my path. Why should I play the lute to a cow?”
“Damn, but it’s a half-step imperial law! Are you really not going to participate?”
“What’s so great about a half-step imperial law? It’s not a genuine imperial law. Besides, if I wanted an imperial law, couldn’t I find a way myself?”
“Based on my understanding of you, you would definitely not choose a convoluted path if there were an easy way.”
“Oh, you really think you know so well.”
“Wanna bet?”
“No bets. Nine tis out of ten, you lose. Are you sure you want to bet with ?”
…
Regardless of what the Demon God Territory ultimately wants to do, Yang Zhen was too lazy to get involved. Now that Sao Ji had been revived, there was nothing more for him to do in the Western Region. If it weren’t for the sudden appearance of the Demon God Territory, with many Celestial Phase experts erging, Yang Zhen wouldn’t want to stay in the Western Region at all.
In the following days, Yang Zhen stayed in the Demon God Territory for ten days without seeing a single Celestial Phase expert, which left him increasingly bored.
During these ten days, Yang Zhen actually got quite familiar with Yue Ling, the leader of the Demon Emperor Guard.
Yue Ling was ticulous while on duty, always wearing a serious expression, but in reality, this pretty young girl was lively and loved to laugh. She was very curious about Yang Zhen and looked for him every chance she got to ask about interesting matters from the cultivation world.
In the last two days, Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er didn’t seem to have much to do, and there was always one of them accompanying Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen was happy to see the two won, especially when he was alone with Hua Youyue. They always seed to have a tacit understanding, exchanging smiles that were quite delightful.
As for the little Dao fanatic, she had made Yang Zhen quite puzzled. She had been distracted lately and was absent-minded even when sparring with Yang Zhen, making him wonder if she had sothing on her mind!
Early one morning, Yue Ling ca looking for Yang Zhen, her eyes red. With a loud clang, she slapped her long sword onto the table, startling Yang Zhen, who was drinking tea.
“What’s the matter? In all of Giant Mountain City, who would dare to provoke Miss Yue Ling?”
Yang Zhen looked at Yue Ling curiously and asked in astonishnt.
Yue Ling glanced up at Yang Zhen and, after a long while, finally spoke, “Madam Tie is dead!”
Yang Zhen was taken aback, patted Yue Ling’s shoulder, and said, “Mourn the change and follow nature, birth, aging, sickness, and death – this is the cycle of the heavens, who can control it?”
Yue Ling glared at him and said firmly, “Who said no one can control life and death?”
Yang Zhen was confused, not understanding the big reaction from Yue Ling, and hesitantly asked, “Death might be easy, but how can life be controlled?”
“Didn’t you resurrect a Golden Crow?” Yue Ling said huffily, catching Hua Youyue, who was bringing more tea for Yang Zhen, by surprise.
Yang Zhen was also stunned and shook his head, “It’s not the sa. That raucous bird had not died; its Spirit Soul was still intact. Moreover, with its racial talent and the essence blood of the Ninth Heaven Golden Crow, undergoing nirvana wasn’t a difficult task. However, if it were a human, it would be uncertain.”
Yue Ling’s expression suddenly turned disheartened, then she clenched her teeth and said, “No, soday, soone will achieve immortality.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen’s heart skipped a beat, and he didn’t hear another word Yue Ling said.
Soday, soone will achieve immortality?
In that mont, Yang Zhen finally understood what the Demon God Territory truly intended to do. They were very likely researching a thod for immortality and probably encountered a bottleneck.
Now that the gates were wide open, it appeared as if they were selflessly bringing endless benefits to the people, but it could very well be that they wanted to leverage everyone’s achievents to break through a certain bottleneck!
If that was the case, it made sense.
Those bronze ancient trees, those bronze giants of the mountains, and that endless abyss, those breaths — no wonder they all carried a strange aura. Yang Zhen now realized that these were the remnants of the heavenly might’s aura.
It was… the consequence of defying the heavens!
The Demon God Territory was committing an act of defiance against the heavens.
No wonder that contemptible cat had ntioned more than once, unintentionally, that the rewards distributed by the Demon God Territory were mostly cultivation thods that defied the heavens. The Demon God Territory was using these people as lab rats!
My goodness!
Yang Zhen, with a dumbfounded look, stood still as a stunned chicken, finally realizing what was called an astounding trap!
Compared to the Demon God Territory’s sches, Yang Zhen’s ploys were like a child’s playthings.
But what exactly was the Demon God Territory researching?
Did Yue Ling and the other ordinary disciples of the Demon God Territory know about this?
Yang Zhen suddenly felt that this matter might be more complex than anything he had ever seen or thought!
“Interesting, quite interesting!”
