The twenty-seventh year of the Great Jin Dynasty was a year of great remembrance, and indeed, a year of great remembrance for all dynasties throughout history!
From this year onward, it was recorded under the reign title of Guangwu; this was the first year of the true rise of the human race.
Now, give me your choice.
At the Cloud Capital Imperial Palace, all the leaders of various forces who have gathered here, representing the highest achievements of the human race in their respective regions, will face a final choice!
Will they fiercely resist, only to be directly suppressed and left to the wisdom of future generations, or will they join forces with these so-called Ancient Demon and forever become their appendages?
The Symbiosis cooperation proposed by the other party seems equal, but in reality, the initiative is entirely in their hands. If they do not agree, they will immediately vanish into nothingness, while if they agree, they will have a lifespan of millions of years and greater power.
Everyone, including Chen Baifeng, knew that once they agreed, it meant that the fate of humanity would enter a new chapter.
"Your Majesty's choice is a great regret to this old man, but you are the king of the human race. If you are unwilling, then so be it." The old celestial master did not get angry in the face of the magnanimous emperor.
Having lurked for many years, the Ancient Demon had long understood the emperor's character. If the emperor were someone who would willingly submit to others, he wouldn't have stabbed the Black Queen at such a crucial moment.
It seems the other side still has plans in the capital, but it doesn't matter. From the moment all these people agreed to come to Cloud Capital, the overall situation was already set. Their leaders agreeing to coexist is icing on the cake; if they don't agree, it will only result in the loss of a group of highly talented humans.
Humans have a major disadvantage: besides being inherently weak, they also have incredibly short lifespans. Once the situation is settled, they have plenty of time to discover more talented humans. After all, this race is not only short-lived but also prolific. If you have talent, there are plenty of people with even more talent. With the lifespan of the royal family, they can afford to wait. If they are not satisfied with this generation's vessel, they can simply replace it.
And you?
The old celestial master first looked at Chen Qing: "What did His Lord King of Qin say?"
Chen Baifeng looked at Chen Qing. To be honest, even with Chen Qing's prior notice, he was still very tempted. As one of the most powerful warlords, what answer would Chen Qing give?
"Didn't I just say that?" Chen Qing laughed, "I was personally appointed King of Qin by His Majesty, so naturally I follow in His Majesty's footsteps!"
"Hahahaha!" The old master burst into laughter. " Lord King of Qin is quite cunning."
Chen Baifeng and the others looked at Chen Qing in surprise. His words seemed tough, but in reality, he was hiding behind the emperor, obviously trying to figure out the emperor's trump card, but also leaving himself a way out.
We follow in His Majesty's footsteps, but what if His Majesty is no longer here?
That's another story, essentially shifting the focus back to the emperor.
The Emperor of the Xiao Household smiled slightly but didn't say anything. He had known about this kid's shrewdness for a long time.
"Where is Lord Chen?" The old Celestial Master asked with a smile, "And what do you have to say now?"
Chen Baifeng realized what was happening and smiled, "Just like the King of Qin, we are all His Majesty's subjects, so naturally we are with His Majesty."
"Alright," the old master nodded slightly, but didn't say anything. It was a good thing that the two of them refused completely. If it weren't absolutely necessary, they wouldn't want to damage either Chen Qing's or Chen Baifeng's bodies, especially Chen Qing's.
Judging from all indications, Chen Qing is likely Reincarnator, and Reincarnator who possesses a great deal of intelligence. Having tasted the benefits of Reincarnator before, they know very well the kind of changes a Reincarnator with sufficient information can bring, just like that guy back then.
Princess Ziyue also said that Chen Qing and Pu Yunchuan have a deep connection, and it's best not to disrupt it.
However, Chen Qing's strength makes it difficult to subdue him without causing damage. If he is sensible, that would be best; otherwise, it would be quite troublesome.
I said.
Just then, Kagura, who hadn't spoken until now, laughed, "Has no one asked me anything?"
Everyone immediately looked over, including the old Celestial Master.
No one dared to underestimate this person, after all, their identity was quite formidable.
Chen Qing also looked at the other person curiously, thinking to himself: Is this guy finally going to make a move?
"If I'm not mistaken, your body is not capable of Symbiosis, is it?"
"Oh?" Kagura chuckled, her voice carrying a seductive quality that made one's heart flutter. "You youngster, you know this?"
It was strange that a woman with stunning charm was calling an old man a junior, but the old master didn't seem to care at all. Instead, he respectfully bowed and said, "I know a little from the memories of our ancestors. Our clan has witnessed a lot of the methods of our predecessors. If I'm not mistaken, you have the Asura Body, don't you?"
"It seems quite a few escaped the net back then." Kagura's smile remained unchanged, but her eyes gleamed with cold light.
The memories of the Ancient Demon are inherited through bloodlines. Those who knew about the Asura Body were all members of the royal family of the Ancient Demon back then. I remember when we were purging the Ancient Demon Ancient Demon, we spared no effort to exterminate the royal family. I thought that even if there were any survivors, they were definitely not the legitimate royal family of the past. Now, the so-called royal family is just a newly retired descendant with slightly purer bloodlines.
However, it seems that's not the case!
After two Samsara of extermination, how could the royal bloodline still survive? Where exactly did this Ancient Demon Clan hide back then?
Asura Body?
Chen Qing looked over. In fact, he had already guessed, but he was not sure yet. However, after the other party did not deny it, he was still amazed by the other party's courage!
The Asura Body, also known as the Three Corpses Evil, was designed based on the Daoist legend of Severing the Three Corpses and was used by Chen Qing in the Demon Buddha Sect.
The so-called Demon Buddha is a very intuitive example. Among the top forces, there are two Buddhist School. In fact, there used to be only one, which was the Buddha Kingdom. However, Buddhism emphasizes cultivating the Heart Demon will be born. Back then, a group of Buddhists with low mental states borrowed a simplified version of the Daoist practice of Severing the Three Corpses in order to take a shortcut. They used the malevolent energy in the Asura Hall to reshape a body and transfer their evil thoughts into that body, thus giving birth to the Demon Buddha clan.
But no one expected that after the Demon Buddha was born, because it was too pure, its cultivation progressed even faster than that of the original body, advancing by leaps and bounds every day. Since the Buddha could not compare to the Demon, and you could not devour the Demon, then the other party would devour you.
In the third version of history, the Demon Buddha launched a counterattack against the Buddha Kingdom, even reaching Spirit Mountain. He devoured the first Lord of Spirit Mountain. Even after the chaos was rectified, the Buddha Kingdom's power was still severely weakened, and the remnants of the Demon Buddha were still restless, ready to make a comeback and sweep across Spirit Mountain once again.
Therefore, in the Buddha's Buddha Kingdom, it is strictly forbidden for anyone who has attained Buddhahood to use this method to eliminate evil thoughts again.
The risk is extremely high. The more talented a person is, the more serious the consequences will be if they create a body of evil thoughts. This is because while you want to completely subdue the evil thoughts, the other party also wants to devour you and make you their own path. Therefore, from the moment you cut them off, the other party is destined to become a great calamity for you in the future.
Chen Qing thought that eating too much would cause him this trouble, but it seems that Kagura is really daring.
However, he was curious: if Kagura at this moment was in her Asura Body, that is, the newly emerged evil thought, why would she work for the real Kagura?
"Senior, you have great courage. Of those who embarked on the Buddhist School path with you back then, none of them dared to take this route. In history, the only one who succeeded on this path was Aganluo, who has already ascended to heaven. Senior, you dare to use this method at this time, which is truly admirable."
"However, no matter what method you use, senior, the current world restricts you. Your strength can only remain within the rules. Without an army, how can you break this deadlock?"
"Who said there's no army?" Kagura laughed.
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone clearly felt the ground shaking.
The next instant, the entire palace was lifted up by a giant python!!
