Muddling Through Troubled Waters: Divine Humans Chatting
The essence of the power of the Immortal Emperor!
Zhang Xingfeng's heart trembled. What did this mean? The Purple Pill Jade could be absorbed by Ying Ren, allowing him to become a Demon Emperor-level figure, or even a Demon Lord, at an astonishing speed! The two crystals had similar effects, though the Purple Pill Jade might not be as effective. However, Zhang Xingfeng's own strength was far greater than Ying Ren's, making absorption much easier for him!
"Haha, this is wonderful, absolutely amazing!" Zhang Xingfeng held the black crystal. He absorbed it slightly, and the black crystal entered Zhang Xingfeng body a thousand times faster than a spirit stone! In other words, according to cultivation methods, it takes about ten million years for Nine Heavens Profound Immortal to reach the Immortal Monarch realm. Zhang Xingfeng estimated that it would only take less than ten thousand years!
Suddenly, the sky changed!
The sky, which was just filled with fluffy white clouds, suddenly began to change colors, thunder rumbled, and even the earth began to tremble!
"Kid, the Divine Descent has begun. It was just like this when Pangu and I came back then. Get ready!" Tianyu shouted in Zhang Xingfeng's mind.
Zhang Xingfeng's figure flashed repeatedly. He clearly saw a vortex appear in the sky, a vortex emitting various lights. Directly below the vortex was to Zhang Xingfeng's east.
At this moment, all the experts in the Source of the Forbidden Zone rushed in that direction...
At the same time, all the experts sighed inwardly, "We're so lucky that this time the location wasn't in the far south or the far north, otherwise we would have made a wasted trip!"
Zhang Xingfeng's lightning speed suddenly vanished. He stopped because his Divine Sense told him that there were three Immortal Emperors ahead of him.
"Damn it, are these Immortal Emperors worthless? Three of them at once! I was almost scared to death!" Zhang Xingfeng was still shaken. He knew that with his current strength, even if he encountered a late-stage Immortal Emperor, he would be powerless to resist. As for someone at the late-stage Immortal Emperor (Demon Lord) level like Ling Suoyu, Zhang Xingfeng estimated that he would need to reach the late-stage Immortal Monarch level, or even the early-stage Immortal Emperor level, to pose a threat. After all, the difference between each subsequent level becomes increasingly significant.
These three are none other than the three famous Three Emperors of Taoya of Taoya in the Immortal Realm! The Taoya Sect they lead is also a sect second only to the seven major powers!
Although the Three Emperors of Taoya are all Immortal Emperor level experts, they only possess the strength of the early stage of the Immortal Emperor could easily defeat them. If it were a late-stage Immortal Emperor like Emperor Ziwei, a single ruthless move could kill all three of them!
Six of the seven major powers have experts at the late stage of the Immortal Emperor, while the remaining one, the Lingyu Sect, although lacking any late-stage Immortal Emperors, boasts three experts at the mid-stage of the Immortal Emperor! This demonstrates the extraordinary strength of the seven major powers!
"Big brother, this time we absolutely must get a top-tier divine artifact for our third brother. He's still using a mid-tier divine artifact, which really makes our Taoya Sect lose face. I really want to snatch that Li Qiang from the Fengyuan Gate (hehe, The Journey of the Immortals, my favorite!), he's only an Immortal Monarch level figure, yet he possesses three top-tier divine artifacts. That's just too outrageous!" the second of the Three Emperors of Taoya said dejectedly.
The eldest brother rebuked, "Don't talk nonsense! Li Qiang's strength is far beyond what you can defeat. Don't underestimate him just because he's only at the Immortal Monarch level. Those three top-tier divine artifacts are called God -God-Slaying Saber! Listen to that, God-Slaying Saber! They're for slaying gods! Even if they can't slay a god, they can certainly slay an immortal. And that Drunken Immortal Flute! During the great war between the Immortal and Immortal Monarch realms, Li Qiang, whose power was only at the early stage of Immortal Lord, played a tune, and within a hundred miles, whether it was an immortal or a demon realm expert, as long as they hadn't reached the mid-stage of Immortal Monarch, they all became drunk. Not from drinking, but from the music. He killed more demon realm experts by himself than an Immortal Emperor! Afterwards, we counted dozens of them, just at the early stage of Immortal Monarch. It's perfectly normal for him to be rewarded with a top-tier defensive artifact back then."
The third brother added, "Don't forget, Li Qiang possessed the God-Slaying Saber as soon as he arrived in the Immortal Realm. Back then, Li Qiang arrived with the power of Great Luo Golden Immortal and was the closed-door disciple of the Azure Emperor of the Fengyuan Gate. I remember when Li Qiang first arrived in the Immortal Realm, a Nine Heavens Profound Immortal tried to seize the God-Slaying Saber, but was actually killed by it. I saw it clearly; it was terrifying. One strike, and that was Nine Heavens Profound Immortal, a level higher than Li Qiang, and he was killed instantly! Although that Immortal Monarch was a bit careless, it was still just one strike, an effortless slash. Even a top-tier divine artifact couldn't achieve such power!"
The eldest brother suddenly said mysteriously, "Second brother, third brother, more than ten thousand years ago, Li Qiang was also at the early stage of Immortal Monarch. I personally saw him fight against the Crimson-Eyed Demon Venerable of the Demon Realm. Although the Crimson-Eyed Demon Venerable was only at the early stage of Demon Lord, he was still a Demon Lord! Moreover, he also possessed a top-level divine artifact!"
Zhang Xingfeng was in the distance, nodded repeatedly as he listened.
He knew just how powerful a registered expert was. He believed that even with three top-tier artifacts, it was impossible for someone without a late-stage Immortal Monarch level to fight against a late-stage Demon Lord level expert!
"Do you know? The two fought for a whole day. Li Qiang relied on that top-level defensive artifact and fought for a whole day. In the end, I don't know what move Li Qiang used, I didn't even see it clearly. I only saw a light, a blade-shaped light. When the light disappeared, the Crimson-Eyed Demon Venerable was dead! A whole level of perception just died like that!" The leader seemed very sarcastic.
"He's already reached the late stage of Immortal Monarch, and his cultivation speed is terrifying. I estimate that he can definitely compete with a mid-stage Immortal Emperor now! Tell me, are we just courting death by going to find that Li Qiang?!"
"Zhang Xingfeng, Zhang Xingfeng, I'm sure, I'm sure, that God-Slaying Saber must have surpassed the level of a top-tier divine artifact, reaching the legendary level, just like the Sky-Opening Divine Axe!" Long Ling was extremely excited.
"Zhang Xingfeng, you should know that once you reach the level of a Demon Lord or Immortal Emperor, the offensive power of a top-tier divine artifact becomes largely ineffective. Li Qiang actually killed a Demon Lord who was a whole level higher than him. The weapon he used must be stronger than a top-tier divine artifact, it must be! And the God-Slaying Saber —that's a name no ordinary person dares to wield. After all, people from both the Immortal and Demon realms are extremely respectful to the Divine Realm. Since it has that name, it must have something special about it. But what makes it special? I'm certain it's special because it's a weapon capable of Killing Gods! It has reached the level that all our divine artifacts dream of!" Long Ling appeared very excited.
Zhang Xingfeng was stunned upon hearing this. He also felt that he was still the luckiest. Li Qiang possessed three top-tier divine artifacts—no, it should be said that one of them might even be a weapon surpassing the divine artifact level, on par with the Sky-Opening Divine Axe! Defense, offense, and the incomparably powerful God -God-Slaying Saber. What a perfect combination!
"How could he possibly possess such a powerful divine artifact? And that God-Slaying Saber! Moreover, those three Immortal Emperors said that Li Qiang had the strength of Great Luo Golden Immortal as soon as he arrived in the Immortal Realm, just like me. Could it be that he also has a master, a master comparable to Pangu?" Zhang Xingfeng thought to himself. But how could he know that Li Qiang's master was far beyond Zhang Xingfeng's imagination? Pangu? That master could probably destroy Pangu with a single finger. (Hehe, just between you and me, Li Qiang's master and Zhang Xingfeng's fictitious master who uses divine fire are not the same person... Haha... I'm just not telling you who those two super masters really are, hehe!) Suddenly, all the energy in the sky began to churn wildly...
The entire Source of the Forbidden Zone was thrown into complete chaos...
"Big brother, the Divine Descent has begun!" The third brother seemed a little excited. He had long wanted to obtain a top-tier divine artifact, but seizing it was not a viable method. After all, those who could use top-tier divine artifacts generally possessed the power level of Immortal Emperor. Even if they didn't, it meant that this guy had a very deep background! Otherwise, how could he possibly possess a top-tier divine artifact? Therefore, the three of them could only resort to the idea of Divine Descent.
Zhang Xingfeng also opened his eyes wide, looking at the sky, where the vortex was becoming more and more violent...
"Boom!"
The vortex in the sky suddenly exploded, and a powerful aura rushed into the Source of the Forbidden Zone.
In an instant, all the experts, even the Immortal Emperor and the Demon Lord, could only struggle to stay standing! What was it that possessed such power simply through its aura?
Suddenly, two figures appeared on the opposite side of the vortex in the sky.
Zhang Xingfeng cried out inwardly, "Ah, that must be the Divine Realm! It must be the Divine Realm! Those two figures are experts from the Divine Realm..." Zhang Xingfeng was incredibly excited. He struggled to stand firmly, his Limitless Power far surpassing his Immortal Yuan Power. It's important to understand that the reason gods possess such powerful auras is due to the difference in their levels. Zhang Xingfeng's Limitless Power was slightly higher in level, yet his aura was much weaker!
Suddenly, two voices rang out.
"Yu Rang, how come our new commander is so powerful? It's said he skipped the entire God-human level as soon as he arrived in the Divine Realm. God-humans are divided into three grades: Low-grade Divine Human, Mid-grade Divine Human, High-grade Divine Human! I've cultivated for countless billions of years to reach High-grade Divine Human and become this constable, while the new Yamen Runner arrived as a Lower Heavenly God Divine Realm. It's said it's because his physical body is too strong. Heavenly Gods! There are countless High-grade Divine Human the Divine Realm, but Heavenly Gods are incredibly rare. It's a huge hurdle! My master has cultivated at the High-grade Divine Human level for countless years and is still only at High-grade Divine Human level. Sigh... why don't I have that new commander's good fortune?"
"A Qian, don't be discouraged. In our entire Yaochi City, out of over a million divine beings, there are only eight Celestial Gods. The probability of becoming a Celestial God is just too low. But to be honest, that new commander is really something. It's said that his weapon crafting is unparalleled. He can easily create divine artifacts, and if he's serious, he can even forge Saint Artifacts. We should try to build a good relationship with him in the future. If he's in a good mood, he might give us a Saint Artifact, and we'll be rich! Oh dear, I just threw down a top-tier divine artifact. It's good to take it back and use it for chopping wood." Yu Rang exclaimed.
A Qian advised, "Forget it, it's just a top-tier artifact. It can only be used to chop firewood. Many of the trash artifacts that the higher-ups made us throw away this time are top-tier artifacts. If you want it, take it back! By the way, Yu Rang, what's the name of that new commander? We need to prepare well. First, we need to find out his background!"
Yu Rang said, "Well... there's a new commander named Pangu, I think. I don't know his identity, but my master heard that Pangu has gained the favor of Zheng Heavenly Venerable Zhengyang, the number one weapon refiner in the Divine Realm, and has become Zheng Heavenly Venerable Zhengyang's only closed-door disciple. Now, even several God Kings in the Divine Realm are very good to Pangu! After all, if Pangu can refine a top-level Saint Artifact one day, that would be incredible!"
"Oh, sigh, why am I not as lucky as Pangu? Never mind, let's go! We still have to report back!" A Qian shouted.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll seal this passage!"
Immediately, the vortex in the sky disappeared, and the Source of the Forbidden Zone returned to its former appearance.
Zhang Xingfeng paid no attention to the Divine Descent; his mind was completely absorbed in the conversation between the two divine beings.
"Zhang kid, Pangu is really amazing. He became a god in no time, and it seems he took some big shot from the Divine Realm as his master. Now he's a commander in a city in the Divine Realm. Sigh, Pangu is now a divine artifact, and if he really wants one... Saint Artifact! It seems he's forgotten about my trashy intermediate divine artifact." Tianyu seemed a little dejected.
Long Ling suddenly shouted, "Saint Artifact! Ah, Saint Artifact! Could it be that the highest level of a divine artifact is Saint Artifact? Could it be that the Sky-Opening Divine Axe is Saint Artifact!" Long Ling became excited again. He had always dreamed of breaking through to the level of a divine artifact, and only now did he realize what it meant to surpass the level of a divine artifact.
Zhang Xingfeng suddenly smiled, silently blessing his master. "Master, now that you are so comfortable in the Divine Realm, I can finally rest assured!"
The Divine Realm also unveiled its mysterious veil in Zhang Xingfeng's heart...
