Jiang Wen, who had been silent for a long time, slowly stood up. Suppressing the warnings from his Primordial Spirit, he walked around the blood pool.
After confirming again and again with the Deity within the Emperor Weapon, the Hengyu Furnace, that this was indeed the Essence Blood of a Great Emperor-level being.
And the quantity was terrifyingly large, something that couldn't possibly be extracted even by killing a hundred peak Great Emperors, his expression grew increasingly complex.
Looking at Fang Zheng, who was playing with the Flood Dragons, he slowly spoke, his voice tinged with melancholy: "Senior Fang Zheng, perhaps, you will truly be the one to end the warfare of this Universe..."
In this long river of time, the beings of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands have killed each other for limited resources, their blood staining almost every page of history.
Even the Immortal Ancient era, which Jiang Wen had seen in ancient ruins in the starry sky, rumored to have True Immortals, was likely just a moment of tranquility in an endless bloody history.
Jiang Wen couldn't help but fall into thought.
If the Strength Fang Zheng currently displayed had no limits.
If he could truly provide an endless supply of resources for this Universe with his own power, would true, long-lasting peace finally arrive?
Silence fell upon the scene for a long time. A storm brewed within Jiang Wen's heart, and his expression became even more resolute.
Jiang Wen gazed at the Block Person in front of him, whose expression was unreadable. His demeanor was solemn, and his heart churned.
Without hesitation, he stepped forward, knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed deeply.
This was the only time in his life he had ever kowtowed to an outsider, aside from his parents and ancestors.
Fang Zheng was startled by this, and asked in confusion, "Ah, why are you suddenly kneeling?"
Jiang Yifei, the patriarch of the Jiang Family, who was standing nearby, showed surprise on his face, his heart filled with hesitation.
If their own ancestor had knelt, should he also follow suit?
But he hadn't yet figured out what exactly had happened.
Moreover, as the patriarch of the Jiang Family, he represented the family's honor and could not easily kneel.
And with his bloodline returning to its ancestral roots, looking exactly like his ancestor, Hengyu Great Emperor, he also represented his ancestor's honor and absolutely could not kneel.
Jiang Wen, kneeling on the ground, did not look up. He spoke with utmost sincerity and slowly said:
"Senior Fang Zheng, this junior is the tenth-generation descendant of Hengyu Great Emperor. Ten thousand years ago, I sealed myself in Divine Source, leaving this frail body, awaiting the time of need."
"This junior knows he is old and frail. With a cultivation of merely Quasi-Emperor Third Heaven, facing the Dark Turmoil, I am as insignificant as an ant."
"When I sealed myself, I was prepared to die, only waiting for ten thousand years to pass, for the Dark Turmoil to erupt again and the beings of all races to bleed, before breaking the seal."
"At that time, I would use the Essence Blood and soul of my ten generations of descendants of Hengyu Great Emperor to offer sacrifices to the Emperor Weapon, awaken the Deity within the Emperor Weapon, and call upon the will of Hengyu Great Emperor to protect all beings."
"However, this junior was awakened today and learned from the Jiang Family's Emperor Weapon, the Hengyu Furnace, that Senior Fang Zheng is discussing the resurrection of the Great Emperors of all worlds with the legendary Taiyin Sacred Emperor."
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The sound of heavy kowtows echoed. Jiang Wen once again made his plea: "Senior Fang Zheng, I now understand that you care for all beings, and I have witnessed your supreme might."
"Now, I understand your wish. You wish for the beings of the Universe to be free from the suffering of conflict and slaughter!"
"You intend to single-handedly sustain all beings in the Universe!"
"However, to protect all beings, to protect peace, how can it be done without like-minded individuals uniting their strength!"
"And my ancestor, Hengyu Great Emperor, cared for all beings, quelled the Dark Turmoil, and slew the Supreme Beings who caused chaos. His achievements were immense, and he will surely be resurrected by Senior."
"Here, Senior Fang Zheng, this junior, representing all beings in the Universe and the Jiang Family, thanks you for your immense kindness and virtue!"
"If Senior has any commands, this junior and the Jiang Family will surely do our utmost to serve you, even if it means shattering our bodies and scattering our souls, we will not hesitate!"
"What? Reviving my ancestor Hengyu!" Jiang Yifei's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, his face filled with shock and internal conflict.
Glancing at the blood pool, Jiang Yifei knew that with the terrifying Strength Fang Zheng had displayed, this was likely not just an empty promise.
If Hengyu Great Emperor could truly be resurrected, what was the honor of the Jiang Family patriarch?
Even if the entire Jiang Family lost all dignity, it would be nothing!
He glanced at Jiang Tingting and saw that she had already knelt down, so he also knelt on both knees.
The five Great Sage-level Cold Flood Dragons, seeing this scene, chattered amongst themselves, "Why did they suddenly kneel down?"
"Don't know."
"Should we kneel too?"
"Let's just do it together, he's the boss now anyway."
Following that, they also lined up and bowed their heads repeatedly.
Only the Block Person remained standing, looking somewhat lost and bewildered, pondering what Jiang Wen had said:
"Ah, what did you say? Who is Hengyu Great Emperor? I don't know."
"Hmm?" Jiang Wen's kowtowing motion paused upon hearing Fang Zheng's words. He was filled with confusion and thought to himself:
"Could it be that the Hengyu Furnace was deceived? He doesn't even recognize my ancestor from the Jiang Family, so how can he talk about resurrection!"
However, just as he was filled with doubt and was about to try and question the Hengyu Furnace, the next moment...
"That there are descendants of your human race like you makes us very pleased."
A faint divine sense echoed.
In the passage of this small world belonging to the Jiang Family, two young men, one in black and one in blue, walked side by side with smiles.
The Taiyin and Sun Dao Principles intertwined and resonated between them.
Vaguely, Jiang Wen seemed to see a rotating Taiji diagram, witnessing the Yin and Yang energies reversing from congenital to chaotic, and then from chaos, all things in the world were born.
When Jiang Wen was young, he had traveled the starry sky and seen a statue of the Taiyin Human Emperor in an ancient ruin, and also received secret techniques passed down by the Taiyin Human Emperor.
Therefore, looking at the appearance of the man in black, and sensing that trace of extreme imperial might, the same as in the blood pool, Jiang Wen instantly confirmed his identity.
He was definitely the legendary Taiyin Sacred Emperor!
But, who was the man beside him, who also exuded extreme imperial might, yet had a completely opposite aura, like the Great Sun shining down?
Jiang Wen's expression hesitated for a moment, an answer surfaced in his heart, and he became incredibly excited. "He's been resurrected successfully? Could this be the legendary...?"
Seeing the newcomers, Fang Zheng cheerfully greeted them. "Yo! Taiyin, you're here."
Taiyin smiled and nodded in response. "Yes, I'm here, and I succeeded."
Fang Zheng leaned forward, staring at the Sun Holy Emperor. "Taiyin, did you resurrect him this time? What's his name? How long has he been dead? Is he powerful? You two fight, who's stronger? Who are you going to resurrect next?"
"Oh right, look at me." Fang Zheng gestured for Taiyin to look at the five Flood Dragons wrapped around his blocky body.
"Look, I found out I can directly spawn intelligent life now."
"They're the ones I just created, and that pool over there is the food I provide for them. I feed them, and they recognize me as their boss."
"As long as I keep them fed, they'll obey me."
"I think I might even be able to sustain the entire Universe directly!"
"If that's possible, maybe your world, which seems like a world of cultivators in a gang, can become a bit more peaceful."
Listening to Fang Zheng's incessant chatter, Taiyin and the Sun Holy Emperor exchanged a glance, looked at the blood pool beside them, then at those Flood Dragons. Just their gazes froze them stiff, making them hang on Fang Zheng like Flood Dragon-themed accessories.
If they were to communicate via divine sense, detailed information could be exchanged in an instant. However, Fang Zheng's blocky body could only hear and see, and his thought speed was no different from an ordinary person. To explain everything to him would take considerable effort.
Therefore, Taiyin smiled helplessly. "Fang Zheng, let's chat slowly later, okay?"
