Capítulo 674: Chapter 217: The Real Divine Beating Whip
“Are you angry? Are you helpless? Do you want to kill all your sons and daughters, your wives and brothers?”
Suddenly, an old voice arose from the depths of this layer’s Rosta, strong and full of vigor.
A green figure started to appear slowly outside the massive tal cage.
This was a very old Taoist, incredibly ancient.
“Master!” Upon seeing this old Taoist, Sun God Apollo respectfully saluted him.
The Old Taoist waved his hand and turned his head to look at Zeus in the tal cage.
“Zeus, it’s been years, how have you been these years?” An old face covered in wrinkles, like the bark of a millennium-old tree, with only occasional flashes of sharpness in his murky eyes revealing that this old fellow was still alive.
“Since we last parted in Pangu’s Great Thousand World, two epochs have passed!” He slowly walked up to the big tal cage, looking at Zeus with his indifferent eyes, and said, “Are you surprised? That I didn’t seal you in the Investiture of the Gods at that ti, I really regret it!”
Hearing this voice, Zeus initially had his head slightly lowered, but it instantly shot up, his golden eyes bursting open as he looked at the face in front of him both familiar and sowhat strange, Zeus said bitterly, “Jiang Ziya… it’s you, I didn’t expect you to co after all!”
“Hahaha, I should have co earlier! You owe , and you must repay!” Jiang Ziya laughed heartily, with all the wrinkles on his face contorting together, even his facial features twisted.
Zeus suddenly turned his head, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Sun God Apollo, and said, “Good, very good! Truly my wonderful son indeed! My wonderful son!”
Apollo’s mouth twitched, revealing a sowhat dry smile, and said, “I learned it all from you! In those days, you personally extracted the Heart of the Sky from my grandfather’s chest to kill him, didn’t you? Compared to you, I am much more compassionate and lenient!”
“Hmph!” Zeus snorted coldly, turned back, and looked at the still elderly Jiang Ziya with a complicated gaze, saying bitterly, “Back then, I and the Titan Giants together rebelled against Heavenly Father, I was severely wounded by Heavenly Father and accidentally fell into Pangu’s Great Thousand World. Although you saved , after all, I helped you Divine Enthronent the Yin Shang dynasty! Why must you so relentlessly pursue this?”
A ferocious smile appeared on Jiang Ziya’s face, and he said, “Help Divine Enthronent the Yin Shang? If it wasn’t for you ddling when I was awarding divine positions on the Sealing God Platform, would I be in this state now? Would the chief position amongst the immortals be snatched by that despicable scoundrel? Thus, you deserve to die, you deserve to die…”
Jiang Ziya beca increasingly furious as he spoke, and the strong Yuqing True Essence surged violently within him, the majestic Saintly Pressure shaking the entire Rosta non-stop.
Zeus gazed steadily at Jiang Ziya as he descended into madness, and said, “I ddled? Jiang Ziya, since I have already beco your prisoner, I’m not afraid to tear off the facade. Do you believe that on the Investiture of the Gods, there were only three hundred and sixty-five official divine positions? The Great Saints, the ancient sages, the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, they were all on the list! Jiang Ziya, you even foolishly dreamt of controlling the Heavenly Book, controlling these great powers. What a joke, a huge joke!”
Jiang Ziya froze. He stared blankly at Zeus and gritted his teeth, “How could you know this, how could possibly you know?”
Zeus smirked and said coldly, “Do you want to know? I won’t tell you!”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya instantly raged to the skies. With a flick of his sleeve, a small beast that was about a foot long and resembled a white mouse erged from his sleeve.
This small weasel was the lifebound spirit pet, the “Purple Gold Flower Fox Weasel,” of Mo Lishou, one of the Four Generals of the Mo Family, and the Eastern Guardian King. Once released into the air, it would reveal its true form as a fierce beast, resembling a white elephant with ribs that sprouted wings, capable of consuming the souls and gnawing on the divine souls of people.
When Jiang Ziya was in charge of Divine Enthronent affairs, in addition to a few who achieved sainthood in the flesh, all the spiritual treasures and spiritual beasts held by the three hundred and sixty-five official gods of the Heavenly Palace had fallen into Jiang Ziya’s hands. Hence, his release of this Purple Gold Flower Fox Weasel now was not without the implication of a threat.
Gently stroking the small beast’s head, Jiang Ziya said with a sinister tone, “Little weasel, extract his divine soul and bite off the left arm of his divine soul!”
As soone who once followed Jiang Ziya closely, Zeus naturally recognized this seemingly cute little weasel, yet knew its terrifying nature. At this mont, upon hearing Jiang Ziya’s words, his face turned green.
“Squeak squeak…”
The Purple Gold Flower Fox Weasel affectionately nuzzled Jiang Ziya’s hand a few tis, but as it turned its head, the originally docile and cute face instantly beca fierce. Its white fur bristled, and from its tiny body burst forth a Saintly Pressure rivaling that of a Quasi-Saint.
“Hahahaha…” Jiang Ziya laughed madly, with the dense Yuqing True Essence billowing, about to condense into substance.
Just as the Purple Gold Flower Fox Weasel’s paws landed on Zeus’s shoulder, its tiny teeth almost piercing through the flesh of Zeus’s neck, Jiang Ziya’s laughter ca to an abrupt halt. It felt as bizarre as when a person, who is talking non-stop, suddenly gets choked and stops speaking.
He frowned and pulled out a lustrous Jade Pendant from his storage space to inspect it. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and beckoned to the Purple Gold Flower Fox Weasel.
“Whoosh!”
The obedient Purple Gold Flower Fox Weasel sprang from atop Zeus’s bulging neck and shot straight into Jiang Ziya’s Daoist robe.
“You’re in luck!” Jiang Ziya patted his sleeve and glared fiercely at Zeus before turning around to address Apollo standing behind him, “Apollo, I presu you have already sensed that Ares’s soul has been extinguished!”
After hesitating for a mont, Apollo said, “It is Ares’s honor to die in battle for the World’s Supre.”
Jiang Ziya patted Apollo’s shoulder and commanded, “Convey my orders, all Cultivators of the Ziwei Palace are to assemble at the Palace’s rear hall Teleportation Array, preparing to head to the Netherworld God Star!”
Apollo knelt on one knee and respectfully replied, “Yes, Master!”
…
At the bottom of the Sea of Death God, Li Qingming stood in front of the Water Prison, looking up at the wooden whip hanging above, suffused with an aura of Dao but devoid of any Mana fluctuations, feeling moved.
“Big Brother, why do you keep fixating on such a wooden whip? If you want it, I have a few whips of Innate Spiritual Treasure Level in my storage space, all of which I’d gladly give to you! Hehe, and about that Nine Revolutions Golden Pill, why don’t you just give them back to ? What do you say?” Long Xuhu clearly still had his mind on the three Nine Revolutions Golden Pills he had lost to Li Qingming, asking with a sheepish grin.
“Get lost!” Before Li Qingming even said a word, Man Niu had already dragged Long Xuhu to the side, saying, “Look at you, losing your composure over three Nine Revolutions Golden Pills. Brother has plenty of them. If you want them, I’ll give them all to you!”
Long Xuhu rolled his eyes helplessly and muttered, “Your counterfeit Nine Revolutions Golden Pills wouldn’t even be worth the residue of one of my pills, even if you gave a thousand or ten thousand of them!”
“Are you asking for a beating, you dead dragon?” Man Niu clenched his fingers, causing a “crack crack” sound from his joints.
“Old Bull, you think I’m afraid of you? Careful, or I’ll shave that bit of hair on your newly grown head back to a bald pate!” While Man Niu’s words were fierce, Long Xuhu was fiercer, hitting right where it hurts and threatening to shave Man Niu’s head.
With his head swollen and almost unable to see, Jiang Jili was delighted to watch the red-faced and thick-necked Man Niu and Long Xuhu quarreling, wishing they would start fighting right then and there to muddy the waters, giving him a chance to escape.
“That’s enough! Continue this disgraceful display and I’ll throw you all into Ti Mountain to keep that bastard Ti company!” Just as the two were about to fight, Li Qingming’s voice rang out. Though his tone was calm, it was enough to make both of them tremble.
Originally, to help Long Xuhu and Man Niu stabilize their realms, he had thrown them into Ti Mountain where ti accelerated ten thousandfold, using it to discipline them.
Although they had promised Li Qingming they would practice diligently, once they entered Ti Mountain, they beca slack, spending their days eating, drinking, and frolicking without a care for cultivation.
But unexpected storms raged in the sky. After wasting over a hundred years in Ti Mountain, their nightmare descended. Ti, the Artifact Spirit of Ti Mountain, which was like a small bear, appeared before them and taught them a harsh lesson, urging them to cultivate.
From then on, their miserable lives began. Every day they were severely punished by Ti, who also had a peculiar habit: he only hit their faces and never struck anywhere else.
Thinking of Ti, the bear-like Artifact Spirit of Ti Mountain, both n exchanged glances and shivered in unison, hastily promising, “Big Brother (Brother Li), don’t worry! We will definitely stop ssing around!”
Li Qingming watched them hang their heads low, looking repentant, and could not help but shake his head with a wry smile. Then his gaze passed over them to Jiang Jili standing behind.
After contemplating, Li Qingming pointed to the whip above the Water Prison and said, “Jiang Jili, tell what this is. And is it an integral component of this Water Prison’s Defense Magic Array?”
Jiang Jili raised his head, hesitantly stamring, “This whip is called the Divine Beating Whip, a Spiritual Treasure once wielded by my father. This object was no longer my father’s, but when the First Epoch t its Great Destruction, he fled from Pangu’s Great Thousand World and took with him a large number of Spiritual Treasures and Immortal Pills. Among them, this Divine Beating Whip is the most precious!”
“So it is indeed the Divine Beating Whip!” Getting the confirmation he wanted, Li Qingming glanced at the rippling water of the Water Prison below and spoke again, “Now, take down this Divine Beating Whip and break the Array!”
Jiang Jili grimaced and shook his head, saying, “I, I truly cannot do that! Only my father, only my father is capable of breaking this Array!”(To be continued.
