He witnessed the happy scene of Gu Sheng, Jade Pool Saintess and Shi Ling, and the jealousy and anger in his heart surged like a tide. He used to be a man of great influence, but now he is extremely depressed, all thanks to Gu Sheng.
"Humph, since you want to be at ease, then I will make it impossible for you to be at ease!" Wu Dewang murmured to himself, with a cunning arc at the corner of his mouth.
He quickly spread the news of Shi Ling's return to all the major forces, and for a while, there was a turmoil.
Strong players such as Shaking Light Holy Land's Misty Elder, Boundless Sect's Yue Qianshan, Dao Annihilation Hall's Eternal Night King, and Ji Family's Ji Wuming have all heard the news. They have been coveting Shi Ling Divine Infant for a long time, and now they are even more eager to try it.
But the three Gu Sheng knew nothing about it, and they were enjoying a rare quiet time. On this day, they decided to leave Yaochi and travel around the outside world.
"Dad, Mom, where are we going to play?" Shi Ling asked, blinking his big eyes.
"We are going to a beautiful place with mountains, lakes, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants." Gu Sheng replied with a smile.
Jade Pool Saintess also looked ahead with expectation, "It will definitely be an unforgettable journey."
However, not long after they left Yaochi, they encountered an ambush.
"Haha, Gu Sheng, you finally showed up!" Wu Dewang walked out of the darkness with a ferocious smile on his face.
At the same time, powerful men from various major forces also appeared one after another, surrounding the Gu Sheng trio.
"Hand over Shi Ling Divine Infant, and we can spare your lives!" Misty Elder said coldly.
"Hmph, you want Shi Ling? Ask me about the sword in my hand first!" A cold light flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes, and he held the long sword in his hand tightly.
A war is about to break out. The three Gu Sheng are not afraid. They have already understood part of Dream Butterfly Atlas and possess the magical powers of Illusionary Transfer. I saw Gu Sheng gently waved the long sword in his hand, and a mysterious force diverted the enemy's attacks.
"How is it possible?!" Eternal Night King exclaimed, "How can our attacks kill each other?!"
"This is the power of Dream Butterfly Atlas." Jade Pool Saintess said calmly, "You don't understand its true power at all."
Under the skillful use of Gu Sheng and the others, Dream Butterfly Atlas's magical powers were fully demonstrated.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Not only can they deflect enemy attacks, they can also control the direction of the wind to form tornadoes and other forces to counterattack the enemy. The strong men from all the major forces were defeated and retreated.
Wu Dewang was not willing to fail. He took advantage of Gu Sheng and the three of them being unprepared and suddenly launched a sneak attack.
"Be careful!" Jade Pool Saintess exclaimed, but it was too late, Wu Dewang's palm force had already hit Shi Ling.
But to everyone's surprise, Shi Ling did not suffer any damage. Instead, Wu Dewang was bounced back by a mysterious force and fell heavily to the ground.
"This is... Shi Ling's magical power?!" Gu Sheng looked at Shi Ling in surprise, and saw a soft light emitting from her body, as if she could resist all harm.
It turns out that Shi Ling, as Divine Infant, not only possesses powerful wisdom, but also possesses mysterious power, protecting himself and his companions at critical moments.
Wu Dewang looked at Shi Ling in horror, knowing that he had completely failed. He struggled to stand up and wanted to escape, but was stopped by Gu Sheng's sword.
"You lost." Gu Sheng looked at him coldly, "You should pay for your crimes."
Wu Dewang knelt on the ground helplessly, knowing that he had nowhere to escape. He looked up at Gu Sheng with regret and unwillingness in his eyes.
"I was wrong..." he whispered, "I am willing to accept any punishment..."
Gu Sheng watched him take a deep breath and then said, "Your crime is unforgivable, but I will give you a chance. From now on, you must serve Yaochi and use your strength to make up for your mistakes."
Wu Dewang looked at Gu Sheng in astonishment, then nodded heavily.
Gu Sheng knows that this guy is so cunning that he will definitely not do it.
He wanted to kill this Daoist priest, but he felt that he was not that simple. Besides, he had robbed everything from him, so it was normal for him to harbor hatred.
"You... are you really willing to let me go?" Wu Dewang looked at Gu Sheng in shock, with disbelief in his tone.
Gu Sheng glanced at him coldly, "I, Gu Sheng, keep my word, but you must remember that if you dare to be my enemy again in the future, I will take your life!"
Wu Dewang nodded heavily, turned around and left in a hurry. Gu Sheng looked at his back, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He knew that this Daoist priest was not simple, but he had more important things to do at this time.
After staying in Yaochi for half a month, Gu Sheng embarked on a journey to the demon clan's territory Hundred Flowers Valley. He knew in his heart that the purpose of this trip was to take out the legendary Demon Emperor's Heart.
Inside Hundred Flowers Valley, the fragrance of flowers overflows, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants compete in beauty. Gu Sheng Went deeper and finally came to a mysterious place in the valley. Yan Ruyu has been waiting for him there.
"You're here." Yan Ruyu's voice was as sweet as a clear spring, and she looked at Gu Sheng with a bit of expectation and complexity in her eyes.
"Yeah." Gu Sheng nodded, "Let's get started."
Yan Ruyu nodded slightly, and then guided Gu Sheng to sit down cross-legged. She said seriously, "Cut open the Dantian and release Demon Emperor's Heart. Remember, be careful."
Gu Sheng took a deep breath, used all his strength, and suddenly opened his Dantian. In an instant, there was a "rumbling" sound, as if the earth was shattering, golden waves surged out of the Dantian, fairy flowers grew wildly, and a new continent seemed to be formed among the lakes and mountains. In this shocking scene, a dazzling heart slowly rises, that is the legendary Demon Emperor's Heart!
It emits powerful energy fluctuations, filling the entire space with mystery and majesty. Gu Sheng and Yan Ruyu were both deeply attracted by this shocking scene, staring intently at the beating heart.
When Gu Sheng tried to drive Demon Emperor's Heart out of the body, he found that it seemed unwilling to leave. Gu Sheng increased the intensity, but Demon Emperor's Heart remained motionless.
"What is it talking about?" Gu Sheng looked at Yan Ruyu in confusion.
Yan Ruyu frowned, seeming to be listening to Demon Emperor's Heart's voice. After a moment, she said, "It said it lived very well here and didn't want to leave."
"This..." Gu Sheng was stunned. He didn't expect such a situation to happen. He looked at Yan Ruyu, his eyes full of questions.
Yan Ruyu took a deep breath, "It also said that whether you come out again depends on your fate in the future."
Gu Sheng was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly, "Since it doesn't want to come out, let's respect its choice."
Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Sheng with eyes full of gratitude and respect. She knew that this decision was not easy for Gu Sheng, but he finally chose to respect Demon Emperor's Heart's wishes.
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred! A powerful energy suddenly burst out from Demon Emperor's Heart and shot straight into the sky! The whole Hundred Flowers Valley was shocked!
"What's going on?" Gu Sheng looked at the scene in front of him in shock.
Yan Ruyu also showed a surprised look, "It seems that Demon Emperor's Heart sensed something and it is leaving!"
As he spoke, Demon Emperor's Heart had already broken through the sky and disappeared. Gu Sheng and Yan Ruyu were left looking at each other in confusion. They know that the origin of this Demon Emperor's Heart is extraordinary, and its sudden departure must have deep meaning. But they had no way of knowing what the reason was.
"What should we do now?" Gu Sheng looked at Yan Ruyu and asked.
Yan Ruyu took a deep breath, "We can only wait. Maybe one day it will appear again."
Gu Sheng nodded, "That's all." He was full of doubts and expectations, not knowing what kind of future this Demon Emperor's Heart would bring them.
"Buzz——"
With a roar, Demon Emperor's Heart soared into the sky from Hundred Flowers Valley, turning into a stream of light and speeding towards the Western Region. Gu Sheng and Yan Ruyu looked at each other, feeling bad in their hearts. This mysterious heart obviously had its own will and purpose.
At the same time, in the far west of Xiwu, in Agama Temple beside Ashoka Lake, a young monk wearing a monk's robe was meditating with his eyes closed. He was monk Mingxin, also Lin Tianhao. Suddenly, he frowned, seeming to sense something, and opened his eyes to look at the sky.
"Are you coming?" Lin Tianhao murmured to himself, feeling a powerful energy approaching quickly.
Soon, Demon Emperor's Heart came through the air and headed straight towards Lin Tianhao. At this critical moment, Lin Tianhao's body flashed and he was already in the sky above Ashoka Lake, confronting Demon Emperor's Heart.
"Buzzing——" Demon Emperor's Heart vibrated violently, exuding a powerful pressure. Suddenly, the heart split open, and a Dao Body shadow emerged from it, which was Demon Emperor's true body.
"Haha, I didn't expect to meet such a pure body here, God helps me!" Demon Emperor laughed, staring at Lin Tianhao greedily.
Lin Tianhao looked solemn, knowing that this battle was inevitable. "Since you have passed away, you should no longer linger in the world. Today, I will seal you again!"
"Arrogant!" Demon Emperor sneered, and with a wave of his hand, majestic demon power surged out, turning into a huge palm and slapping Lin Tianhao.
Lin Tianhao was not afraid to laugh back. He moved and turned into a golden light that collided with Demon Emperor's palm. "Boom——" A dazzling light erupted from the intersection of the two.
For a time, the battle above Ashoka Lake was extremely fierce. Lin Tianhao holds Haoyang Sword, and every time he swings the sword, he can cut out the blazing sword energy to compete with Demon Emperor. And Demon Emperor relies on his unfathomable cultivation to deal with Lin Tianhao.
"Sea Bottom Realm triple? Huh, nothing more than that!" Demon Emperor mocked.
"Really?" Lin Tianhao responded with a sneer, "Then give it a try!"
After saying that, he activated his power, "Boom--" A blazing sun suddenly appeared in the sky. This was the vision of Lin Tianhao--Vast Sun in the Sky! The blazing sunshine seemed to be able to burn everything, directly covering Demon Emperor.
Demon Emperor roared angrily, and black demonic energy erupted from his body to compete with the sunlight. "Boy, you do have some abilities, but it's still too early to seal me!"
The battle between the two became more and more intense, from Agama Temple to the bottom of Ashoka Lake. The water of the lake was turned upside down by their power, and the waves surged into the sky.
"Bang——" After another violent collision, both Lin Tianhao and Demon Emperor flew upside down. A trace of blood spilled from the corner of Lin Tianhao's mouth, but the fighting spirit in his eyes became even more intense, "If I don't seal you here today, I, Lin Tianhao, will be a son of man in vain!"
Demon Emperor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sneered again and again, "Huh! Let's see if you have this ability!"
After saying that, he flashed and attacked Lin Tianhao again. The battle between the two has entered a fierce stage. Every attack is enough to make the sky and the earth change color and the lake water to churn.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred! The originally calm Ashoka Lake suddenly surged with a powerful energy wave, directly shaking Demon Emperor and Lin Tianhao away.
"What's going on?" Lin Tianhao looked at the center of the lake in surprise as something seemed to be about to break out of the water.
"Quack... God is really helping me! This Ashoka Lake actually suppresses such a treasure!" A trace of greed flashed in Demon Emperor's eyes and he rushed towards the center of the lake in a flash.
Lin Tianhao screamed in his heart and flew towards the center of the lake immediately after. I saw the lake water rolling there, and a huge ball of light rising slowly, emitting a strong light.
"This is...Ashoka Pearl!" Lin Tianhao exclaimed. He had seen records about Ashoka Pearl in ancient books. It was an ancient artifact with mysterious power.
A trace of greed flashed in Demon Emperor's eyes, "Hahaha! I want this artifact!" As he said that, he reached out and grabbed it for Ashoka Pearl.
But at this moment, Ashoka Pearl suddenly burst out with a dazzling light, which directly bounced Demon Emperor's hand away. "Ah——" Demon Emperor screamed and flew backwards.
At the same time, Lin Tianhao was also affected, but he stood firmly next to Ashoka Pearl. "This bead is indeed extraordinary." He murmured to himself, then reached out to touch Ashoka Pearl.
Unexpectedly, Ashoka Pearl did not reject him, but developed a wonderful connection with him. "Buzzing——" Ashoka Pearl vibrated slightly, as if in response to Lin Tianhao.
Lin Tianhao's heart moved, and he felt that he seemed to be able to control this artifact. So with a thought in his mind, Ashoka Pearl flew into his hands.
"No! This is impossible!" Demon Emperor roared, he could not accept such a result. But the fact is before us, Lin Tianhao has been recognized by Ashoka Pearl and has become its owner.
"Now, it's time for us to fight." Lin Tianhao looked at Demon Emperor coldly and said. He held Ashoka Pearl in his hand, and his confidence increased greatly.
A trace of evil flashed in Demon Emperor's eyes, "You think you can defeat me with this artifact? Huh! How naive!" As he said that, he attacked Lin Tianhao again.
But this time, Lin Tianhao did not flinch, and he stepped forward with Ashoka Pearl in hand. "Boom——" The two collided again, but this time Lin Tianhao had the upper hand.
With the help of Ashoka Pearl, Lin Tianhao's strength has greatly increased. Every attack he makes puts Demon Emperor under tremendous pressure. Gradually, Demon Emperor began to be at a disadvantage.
"No! There's no way I can lose to an ant like you!" Demon Emperor roared angrily, resisting desperately, but to no avail.
In the end, under the joint attack of Lin Tianhao and Ashoka Pearl, Demon Emperor was severely injured and fell to the ground. "Pfft——" A mouthful of blood spurted out from Demon Emperor's mouth, and his breath quickly weakened.
