Not to mention that the Sect Master Tongtian, the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor Ye, and others were all willing to lend him a hand.
The likes of the Footprint Emperor and the Corpse Immortal Emperor were also willing to serve under him.
On the surface, Su Yang himself does not possess unparalleled cultivation, but he has a host of powerful figures behind him, leading many to believe that he is merely a lucky one who "takes advantage of the situation."
This is why, despite Su Yang's elusive nature throughout the Primordial World, no one has ever come to him in person to ask for his guidance.
This is the first time Yang Jian has come to seek my guidance.
Erlang Shen took a deep breath, looked at Su Yang with unwavering determination, and said in a deep voice, " Mister Su's depths are unfathomable, far exceeding the imagination of ordinary people!"
"Therefore, Yang Jian has come specifically to earnestly request your guidance, sir."
Upon hearing this, Su Yang couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness.
He had to admit that Yang Jian's move was truly unexpected and left him momentarily at a loss.
Su Yang sized up the person before him, then asked, "In that case, what doubts does True Lord Erlang have that need to be resolved?"
" Mister Su, why use such an unpleasant title? Just call me Yang Jian by my given name."
Yang Jian took another breath, his tone solemn. " Yang Jian has come here to seek your help, sir."
"Sir, I am not content to be confined to this world; I crave greater power. And I know in my heart that in this Primordial World universe, only you hold the key to reaching a higher realm!"
"If you, sir, would grant my request, I, Yang Jian, am willing to follow you closely, serve you for life, and have no other intentions."
Before he could finish speaking, and before Su Yang could respond, the Sect Master Tongtian spoke first, " Yang Jian, you belong to the Sage's Lineage, a disciple of the Elucidation Sect."
"Is there some Saint plotting behind their current allegiance to Su Yang, a scheme they've orchestrated?"
"Reporting to the Sect Master, Yang Jian has absolutely no other intentions."
Yang Jian solemnly raised his head, looked directly at Su Yang, and said earnestly, "Please believe in my sincerity, sir. This journey is solely to follow you and pursue a broader path."
"Fine, I have no intention of delving into your true intentions."
Su Yang sighed and shook his head, saying slowly, "Since you want to travel with me, then follow me for a while, let me see your sincerity and ability before making a decision."
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian's face immediately lit up with undisguised joy. He bowed deeply and said firmly, "Thank you for your kindness Mister Su!"
Su Yang waved his hand and then said, "Let's go. We're not going to the West just to travel and enjoy the scenery."
He glanced at Yang Jian sideways and said calmly, "You do have some skill. We've only just left the inn, and you've already been waiting for us in the Western Frontier for quite some time."
Yang Jian chuckled softly upon hearing this, then said, " Mister Su, please don't be offended Yang Jian has also inquired extensively in search of Mister Su whereabouts."
"Recently, the Corpse Immortal Emperor under Mister Su's command has frequently appeared in the western part of the Western Ox Continent, seemingly searching for something."
"Therefore, Yang Jian also came to this place and waited here for three years, just to meet Mister Su."
Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly taken aback, feeling somewhat speechless.
Is Yang Jian truly so stubborn? If he's willing to follow Su Yang, why doesn't he just go directly to the inn in Qingshan City to request an audience?
Instead, they traveled all the way to this desolate western region to wait in vain?
"You're quite patient. What if I never arrive?" Su Yang glanced at him sideways, his tone indifferent. "After all, I might not even set foot here."
"If Mister Su does not come, Yang Jian will personally go to Qingshan City to plead his case and earnestly request to follow him."
Judging from his words, Su Yang did not say much.
He knew perfectly well that Yang Jian was a true martial artist.
In this Primordial World, his temperament was even comparable to that of the Sect Master Tongtian.
In his early years, his mother, Yao Ji, was imprisoned in the Netherworld for violating heavenly rules. Although Yang Jian was the Heavenly Court God of War, known as True Lord Erlang,
But deep down, he was constantly plotting to save his mother.
However, the longer he stayed in the Heavenly Court, the more he felt powerless. The Jade Emperor, the supreme ruler of the Three Realms, was an unparalleled powerhouse.
He has reached the pinnacle of Quasi-Sage Peak, and there are only a handful of beings in the entire Three Realms who can rival him.
Moreover, he also had to rescue his mother Yao Ji, from the suppression of the Jade Emperor and many powerful figures in the Heavenly Court.
This is an extremely difficult task.
Seeing the helplessness in Yang Jian's eyes, Su Yang understood perfectly.
The reason why this person is willing to follow me has already been frankly stated:
All for the pursuit of a wider world and greater power.
Su Yang did not hesitate. Yang Jian was exceptionally talented, and if carefully nurtured, he was very likely to become one of his top combatants in the future.
He vaguely remembered that in the Primordial World Mythological Era, Yang Jian was Great Luo Celestial Immortal, a truly rare genius!
Although he has not reached the realm of the Mythical Grand Unity Golden Immortal, having already attained the Great Luo Dao Fruit, his true strength in the Myriad Worlds is already evident!
The Yang Jian before us is merely a projection of the myriad realms.
Even so, this True Lord Erlang from the Primordial World, is still truly astonishing to all living beings.
" Mister Su, where are we headed?" Yang Jian asked, staring ahead.
He had originally thought that Su Yang had come to attack the Western Buddhist Sect, but the path he was on now did not lead to the Western Spirit Mountain.
Upon hearing the question, Su Yang's lips curled slightly, and he slowly replied, "It's nothing more than retrieving a treasure."
"I see."
Yang Jian nodded, but a hint of doubt arose in his heart.
What kind of treasure could it be that warranted Su Yang's personal intervention?
Furthermore, he was accompanied by three powerful figures at the Realm of Sacrificing the Dao: the Sect Master Tongtian, the Empress Houtu, and the Ruthless Great Emperor.
And accompanied by Heavenly Dao Sage like Empress Nuwa?
With this kind of lineup, saying it's a treasure hunt...
Even Western Buddhist Sect, and even the Two Sages of the West, probably wouldn't dare utter a single word, let alone obstruct it.
Western Ox Continent is a wasteland permeated with evil and demonic energy.
Su Yang and his group slowly entered the room.
This is the very place where the Demon Ancestor Rahu and the Dao Ancestor Hongjun fought their final battle!
Due to the reversal of the situation, Demon Ancestor Rahu was ultimately no match for Dao Ancestor Hongjun, and his cultivation was about to collapse!
On his deathbed, he roared, "As the righteous path declines, the demonic path rises; for every foot the righteous path gains, the demonic path gains ten!"
The Demon Ancestor Rahu was undoubtedly one of the most terrifying beings in the Primordial World.
Even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun of yesteryear needed to unite with several supreme experts before daring to challenge him!
At this moment, where Su Yang and the others were standing...
This was the very place where the Demon Ancestor Rahu, unable to withstand the combined might of many powerful figures, ultimately chose to self-destruct and perish.
Looking at the murderous aura surrounding him, Su Yang couldn't help but let out a soft breath.
The Demon Ancestor Rahu, what a solitary destiny!
Seeking the Great Dao through the aura of slaughter is inherently an act against the will of Heaven.
Therefore, even though Demon Ancestor Rahu's strength far surpassed that of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, it was still Dao Ancestor Hongjun ultimately attained the Great Dao!
This is because the Dao Ancestor Hongjun the will of Heaven and acted in accordance with the Way of Heaven.
Under the influence of Heaven's will, supporting Hongjun's attainment of Dao is more conducive to maintaining the order of heaven and earth than supporting the Demon Ancestor Rahu!
If the one who attained enlightenment back then was the Demon Ancestor Rahu, perhaps the world would already be in a completely different state of turmoil today.
Just like in that Great Tomb World, where Dugu Baitian, the Demon Lord, and others joined forces to Tian Yi.
After all, the Demon Ancestor Rahu would never tolerate any being above him who was superior to him!
" The Demon Ancestor Rahu, once so formidable, ultimately turned to dust here."
The Sect Master Tongtian took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Back when the Demon Ancestor Rahu was active in the Primordial World world, I, Tongtian, had not yet stepped out of the Origin Land. It was not until countless epochs after his fall that I first set foot in that initial territory."
Upon hearing this, Empress Nuwa also parted her lips slightly. "At that time, the power of the Demon Ancestor Rahu shook the Three Realms. Even though I was born halfway up Buzhou Mountain and was protected by the remaining energy of the Great God Pangu, I could still deeply feel his terrifying oppression!"
Empress Houtu also sighed softly and slowly spoke, " The Demon Ancestor Rahu was indeed a revered being. At that time, my Witch Clan had not yet taken shape, and only the Twelve Ancestral Witches resided quietly in the Pangu Hall."
"Back then, he dominated an entire era; the entire Witch Clan couldn't even come close to his power."
Listening to everyone's words, Su Yang remained silent.
Only Yang Jian was curious, so he cupped his hands and asked, "May I ask you seniors, just who exactly is this Demon Ancestor Rahu?"
Over the years, Yang Jian has focused on improving his cultivation. He has heard of the famous and powerful figures in the Primordial World, but knows very little about the other Ancient Beings.
Moreover, what about someone as powerful as Demon Ancestor Rahu, who was active during the Dragon-Han Calamity?
It should be noted that this person shares the same origin as Dao Ancestor Hongjun, was born in the era of the Ferocious Beast Dynasty, experienced the Fierce Beast Rebellion, rose step by step, and his demonic power was unparalleled, truly unprecedented in history!
However, because he was defeated by Hongjun, his name was almost forgotten in the Primordial World. Apart from a few Ancient Beings, even if later beings cultivated to the Tongtian and possessed boundless magical power, few people knew his true name.
Who is the Demon Ancestor Rahu?
Upon hearing Yang Jian's question, Su Yang smiled faintly and then slowly explained, "This Demon Ancestor Rahu, is a truly unparalleled powerhouse throughout history."
"You have never heard of the Demon Ancestor Rahu, but have you ever heard of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian immediately nodded in agreement, saying, "The name of Dao Ancestor Hongjun is known to every household in the Primordial World."
"Good."
Su Yang nodded. This was undeniable; Dao Ancestor Hongjun was indeed Supreme Being known to all living beings in the Primordial World.
He then looked at Yang Jian and said in a calm tone, "And this Demon Ancestor Rahu is the very being who even the Dao Ancestor Hongjun found troublesome and had to unite with the world's top experts before daring to confront him head-on!"
"What!?"
Yang Jian gasped in shock. Dao Ancestor Hongjun was currently the strongest being in the Primordial World!
Even Heavenly Dao Sage would be easily suppressed before him!
Such a being, yet it had opponents that required the combined strength of many to dare to face?
This Demon Ancestor Rahu is actually this powerful?
"Moreover, the Four Swords of Zhu Xian in the hands of the Sect Master Tongtian originally belonged to the Demon Ancestor Rahu."
Su Yang continued, "Later, Dao Ancestor Hongjun, together with many supreme experts, comprehended the Dao of the Three Corpses in the Immortal-Slaying Formation using Fragment of the Jade Plate of Creation. After severing the Three Corpses, he finally defeated Demon Ancestor Rahu."
"Those four divine swords had just fallen into the hands of Hongjun, and after his sermon, they were bestowed upon Sect Master Tongtian."
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "So there was such a hidden story behind it? It's truly shocking and unbelievable."
"So, Mister Su, how exactly did this Demon Ancestor Rahu fall to defeat?"
"Given his strength, even if he were defeated, he shouldn't have simply disappeared without a trace."
Yang Jian stared intently at Su Yang and asked the question that had been nagging at him.
