Upon seeing the jade box on the table, both Old Man Leaping Dragon and Heavenly Venerable Shangwu's expressions turned extremely grim.
The Central Emperor's expression also turned extremely solemn, and he said, "According to the clan's assessment, this Demon Puppet Saliva should be a product of 30,000 years ago."
Hearing this, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged a glance, and both felt a bit amused and exasperated.
" The Central Emperor is being far too sensitive. A product from 30,000 years ago doesn't mean anything." Old Man Leaping Dragon gripped his sea staff and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll head back now. At the Grand Dao Assembly in two days, some old friends might visit, so we need to go back and prepare."
Seeing this, Heavenly Venerable Shangwu also stood up. Just as the two were about to leave, they heard Central Emperor laugh and say, "Please be patient, gentlemen. Even if our other old friends come to the Demon God Territory, what trouble can they possibly cause?"
As he spoke, under the hesitant gazes of the two, the Central Emperor flicked his hand, and the box containing the Demon Puppet Saliva from 30,000 years ago suddenly exploded into countless pieces. A muffled roar came, and a terrifying blood-red light suddenly swept across the entire room.
The Heavenly Venerable Shangwu and the Old Man Leaping Dragon were startled by the sudden scene, and their expressions immediately turned serious.
Especially Heavenly Venerable Shangwu, a blood-red light flashed in his eyes. Without making any move, he snorted coldly and his aura exploded. Waves of aura, like ocean waves, enveloped the entire room. The blood waves roared and struggled violently, and suddenly transformed into a huge, pitch-black figure, rushing towards Heavenly Venerable Shangwu.
"You wicked creature, cease your arrogance!"
With a tap of his sea staff, the Old Man Leaping Dragon unleashed a deafening roar of the raging waves, which crashed violently against the enormous figure.
boom--!
A deafening roar shook the entire room, causing Old Man Leaping Dragon and Heavenly Venerable Shangwu to shudder and their faces to show horror.
The Central Emperor snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hands, a Dao Rhyme filled with destruction suddenly enveloped the black shadow, emitting a series of sizzling sounds as it devoured the shadow until it disappeared.
The shadowy creature was a humanoid being with extremely long hands, which, despite its hunched body, were able to reach the ground.
Enveloped by the Dao Rhyme of the Central Emperor, the black shadow roared and howled, its deafening sound waves reverberating throughout the room, causing the room to tremble and making the expressions on the faces of the three people grow increasingly solemn.
"What... what's going on?"
Old Man Leaping Dragon stared at the Central Emperor with a look of shock on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Although the Demon Puppet are nearly immortal, their resurrection is definitely not something that can be achieved by a mere Demon Puppet Saliva. Central Emperor, what exactly is going on?"
The Central Emperor gave a wry smile and said, "You two have seen it for yourselves. Although Old Man Leaping Dragon is absolutely right, I truly haven't done anything to this Demon Puppet Saliva."
"So, the Demon Puppet has evolved again?"
Old Man Leaping Dragon's words made Heavenly Venerable Shangwu's expression somewhat unpleasant, but he couldn't care less about that, and the two of them stared intently at the Central Emperor.
The Central Emperor hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "That should be it!"
hiss--!
Old Man Leaping Dragon and Heavenly Venerable Shangwu's expressions changed again. They exchanged a glance and looked at the Central Emperor, saying, "So, this is the most fundamental reason why the Demon God Territory is almost insane?"
The Central Emperor sighed and said, " The Demon God Territory wouldn't normally act this way. We've only just appeared in this world and haven't even had time to adapt. How could we possibly do something so defying the heavens? But as you both have seen, even we can survive in that environment, let alone the nearly immortal Demon Puppet?"
"Back then, this Demon Puppet practically ravaged the entire Demon Puppet Cultivation World, and countless forces perished at its hands. I had a feeling back then that although the Demon Puppet was severely weakened, it might not be completely eliminated. Now it seems that it is indeed still a huge hidden danger."
The Old Man Leaping Dragon looked at the Central Emperor with a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face and said, "Old man, tell me, what do you need us old bones to do?"
The Central Emperor smiled and said, "Things aren't that dire. The world is completely different now. Our biggest advantage over the Demon Puppet is that we can adapt to our own world at the fastest speed, while they are different."
Old Man Leaping Dragon and Heavenly Venerable Shangwu exchanged a glance, then burst into laughter, saying, "I understand. With the current changes in destiny, your desperate gamble will cause the world to tremble. The most intolerant of such things are the Demon Puppet. In this way, the might of heaven will be overwhelming, and it may be a catastrophic disaster for the Demon Puppet."
"Therefore, the more lively this Grand Dao Assembly is, the better. However... however, if such a display of heaven-defying Cultivation Method incurs the wrath of the heavens again, the Demon God Territory will have no room for maneuver." A strange look flashed across Heavenly Venerable Shangwu's face as he slowly walked out of the room.
Old Man Leaping Dragon and Central Emperor exchanged a glance, shook their heads, and walked out.
The Central Emperor watched the two leave, then glanced at a corner of the room. Suddenly, a black figure flashed by and appeared before the Central Emperor.
" Jueying, tell me... were we wrong?"
The shadowy figure pondered for a moment before speaking, "Even if Jueying is condemned by the heavens, she would rather die at the hands of Demon Puppet."
The Central Emperor laughed heartily, his gaze deep and his voice low as he said, "Then let's go crazy one more time!"
After saying that, the Central Emperor asked with some curiosity, "I heard that little fellow Yang Zhen wants to debate with me?"
Jueying shook his head and said, "Someone is interfering."
"Hmph!" The Central Emperor's face darkened, then he said with a half-smile, "Very well, I have indeed become somewhat interested in Yang Zhen. I've heard that he can actually control Dao Rhyme. If the rumors are true, then this young man is the most talented person I've ever seen in my life. Perhaps he can even enter the Abyss!"
Jueying was startled and asked in surprise, "Does the Central Emperor value this boy so much?"
"Everything is predestined. Whether Yang Zhen can gain my approval depends on his fate. Go and invite Master Su. I have a premonition that there might be a huge change in this Hongdao event."
Jueying's figure gradually disappeared into the Yin Shadow. The Central Emperor's expression shifted repeatedly as he muttered to himself, "Was it right or wrong...?"
Inside a teahouse in Giant Mountain City, Yang Zhen stared at a Cultivation Method before him, a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face. " The Demon God Territory is definitely up to something, and something big!"
The Shameless Cat glanced lazily at the Cultivation Method and said, "Kid, there are plenty of Cultivation Method at this level. No need to be so nervous, is there?"
"What do you know? Such Cultivation Method may be commonplace, but that was in the past. In today's Cultivation World, even telling the truth is forbidden. Doesn't the Demon God Territory fear divine retribution for allowing everyone to cultivate such Cultivation Method?"
At this point, Yang Zhen took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "What exactly is the Demon God Territory doing? Are they really going to destroy the Cultivation World?"
