Chapter 295: The Rise of the Human Emperor
“Why does the test have to be so hard?” Jiang Ming said in confusion.
“Do you know what kind of place the Chaos Sea is? There’s no way you can go there so easily,” Riyue Changfeng said with a smile, “Only those who’re strong enough to pass the test. A Golden Immortal expert might be very powerful in a small chiliocosm, but they will die instantly as soon as they step into the Chaos Sea. Only those Golden Immortal experts who are strong enough to defeat a Great Overarching expert might stand a chance in the Chaos Sea.”
“Seriously?” The Great Demon Venerate shook his head. “A Golden Immortal expert defeating a Great Overarching expert? That’s impossible!”
Suddenly, he thought of something and he looked toward Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming hadn’t reached the Great Overarching realm, yet he was able to kill someone a lot stronger than him. The Great Demon Venerate was a Demi-Sage himself, but he did not have the confidence that he could defeat him either.
“It’s possible, but only a handful of people can do that,” Riyue Changfeng said. After that, he waved his hand and continued with a smile, “Alright, that’s all for today. If you want to buy something, then get ready your immortal crystal, demon crystal, or even Dao Vessels and come back to me in another year!”
“Sure!” The Great Demon Venerate nodded. He took one last look at Jiang Ming before leaving while shaking his head.
“Brother Jiang, you’ve made a name for yourself after this fight, and more people will know about you,” Riyue Changfeng smiled.
“Honestly, I’d rather them not know who I am,” Jiang Ming sighed, “I just want to spend my life in peace, but it seems to me that it’s impossible. Many people are coming after my life, so to protect myself as well as the people I care about, I have no other choice but to fight back and kill them. I guess I would only have my peace after I’ve killed all of them.”
“Well, it seems to me that you still have a long way to go!”
“Sigh, there’s nothing I can do about it!”
“Haha!”
Both of them laughed.
“Sacrificial Artifact Judgment and the special ability that you developed that could disrupt your opponent’s Dao Vessels as well as your special abilities that could form bodies of three lifetimes,” Riyue Changfeng said, “Are you going to trade them?”
“Of course! I don’t see any reason why I shouldn’t trade with you if you have something good to offer,” Jiang Ming said.
Honestly, special ability was the last thing he cared about. After all, he was confident that he could master and perfect different kinds of special abilities.
“That’s the spirit! After you’ve collected everything, I’ll show you some good stuff!”
“Sure!”
After they had finished talking, Jiang Ming returned to Chuyang Peak.
“I was terrified when the Great Demon Venerate appeared just now!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan said, “But honestly, I didn’t expect that you could scare him away!”
“It’s just temporary. If he’s hellbent on attacking me, there’s nothing I can do other than running away!” Jiang Ming said.
“Even so, what you did is still very impressive. It means that you’re now one of the strongest people in the Heavenly Realm. Oh yeah…” Mountain Master Tian Yuan paused for a moment before continuing, “Wan Lian Great Monarch sent me a message just now. After the battle between the Abyss and the Heavenly Court has come to a conclusion, he and the other human venerates will come over here and build a force that belongs to the human race. They will also elect you as the emperor of the human race to lead the entire human race from all universes. They will support you regardless of anything, even if you want to bring the Heavenly Emperor from his throne. He wants me to ask about your opinion.”
Mountain Master Tian Yuan was talking to him telepathically.
Jiang Ming frowned slightly and said, “You don’t have to use telepathy here. How is their combat power?”
Mountain Master Tian Yuan raised his head and looked ahead. He was surprised.
He knew what Jiang Ming was trying to tell him.
Nobody would hear their conversation as long as they stayed here.
“Other than me, there will be another eight venerates. One of them is at the peak of the Quasi-Sage Realm, two at the middle stage of the Quasi-Sage Realm, and four at the initial stage of the Quasi-Sage Realm.”
“There are so many of them?”
“It isn’t that many. After all, the human race is the largest race, so I’d say we have the least number of experts. No, wait a second. Let me rephrase. Every time there is a war, the human race will lose one or two experts. Now that I think about it, it should be that we’re targeted by other forces and they want to weaken our power.
“No, it must be because of that!
“If not, there’s no way we won’t have a Saint Lord, right? What do you think, brother?”
“Nope!” Jiang Ming shook his head, “The Heavenly Emperor reigns over the Heavenly Court. He has the authority of the universe and he’s as powerful as Saint Lord. Do you think anyone can defeat someone like that? As for the Great Demon Venerate, he has a Holy Dao Vessel.”
“The Great Demon Venerate has a Holy Dao Vessel?” Mountain Master Tian Yuan was stumped.
“Of course!” Jiang Ming nodded. “Not only him, I suspect that even though the Buddha Lord and the Dragon Lord don’t have a Holy Dao Vessel, at least they have one or two Demi-Sage Weapons and powerful formations. In this war, regardless of whether the Abyss or the Heavenly Court wins, we can’t stand forward. The only situation we can stand forward is when the Heavenly Emperor, the Great Demon Venerate, the Dragon Lord, and the Buddha Lord are too occupied with the war and they can’t afford to care about us. Besides, we also need a Demi-Sage expert. It seems to me that they can’t hold themselves back for long.”
“I thought the same way as well.” Mountain Master Tian Yuan frowned. “They have been hiding for so long, so why are they all suddenly becoming so restless? Could it be that they see the hope of the rise of humanity in you, so they can’t hold themselves back anymore?”
“Hope?” Jiang Ming shook his head, “Hope is the most unreliable thing in this world.”
He paused for a moment before continuing in a serious manner, “By the way, make sure you don’t tell anyone about this place.”
“Are you worried that…”
“Well, people’s hearts are unpredictable.”
“Yeah, you’re right. People’s hearts are unpredictable,” Mountain Master Tian Yuan smiled bitterly.
He sensed that Phoenix Linglong was watching him. He let out a chuckle and left. As soon as he reached his house, the courtyard was instantly covered with a layer of fog. No matter how hard he tried to pry inside, he couldn’t see anything.
“What a mysterious place. Can the Sage Venerates Dao Square do something like this? But I didn’t see any sign of formation at all!”
As the thought surfaced in Mountain Master Tian Yuan’s mind, he sat down in a lotus position and began cultivating.
The Jiuyang Sect.
Many people were getting stronger and stronger. Some of them had just a breakthrough three days ago, and now they had another breakthrough again.
Most of them found it difficult to believe at their cultivation speed.
Even Gu Hai, who seldom cultivate, had already reached the Paradis Realm.
Chuyang Peak.
“Senior brother, do you know how scared I am just now?” Phoenix Linglong wrapped around Jiang Ming’s arms. “The Great Demon Venerate is someone who stands on the same level as the Heavenly Emperor. Yet you can scare him away. You really are the best, senior brother!”
“It’s nothing, honestly. It’s best if I can kill him. Then no one will disturb us anymore!” Jiang Ming said as he threw himself on the rattan chair.
“Ah, this feels so good.”
“You’re just lazy!” Phoenix Linglong threw herself on top of him and drew circles on his chest with her finger. “I guess no one will come to disturb us for the time being. What’s your plan, senior brother?”
“We’ll just wait and watch!” Jiang Ming said, “It’ll be best if no one comes to disturb us, but if there is, we’ll kill them!”
“You don’t want to be the emperor of the king? Or the emperor of the north?”
“Nope!”
Bam!
A cannon shot silenced everything, and the shrill sound was transformed into the world’s most exalted music.
Time was passing slowly.
The heavenly realm was invaded by the demon. They killed everyone they saw in their path, but some of the bigger forces did not care about them.
The Heavenly Court also sent many heavenly soldiers and generals to get rid of the demons. The Heavenly Emperor even gave out orders to eliminate the demons, and this represented the demon completely standing on the opposite side of the Heavenly Court as well as the others.
Some Great Overarching expert would show up from time to time, but a Saint Lord never appeared.
In the midst of the war, there were also rumors about the Infinite Realm Battlefield. Four Demon Venerates and the former Northern Emperor were killed there.
Due to this, the Tianyuan Realm became a force to be reckoned with. Many people sent invitations to Jiang Ming and wanted to visit them, but he rejected each of them.
Time was passing rapidly as the war progressed. Very soon, there was only one month left to Riyue Changfeng’s auction.
“I’m finally at the peak of the Taiyi Realm!” Phoenix Linglong got up and stretched her body.
Jiang Ming looked at her and calmed himself down.
‘Now isn’t the right time for that,’ He told himself.
It was about time he traded with his group members, and he should get serious now.
“Senior brother, I’m strong enough to defeat a Great Overarching Golden Immortal now! Just as I expected, cultivating with you is much faster than cultivating in that inheritance space,” Phoenix Linglong said.
“You’ve absorbed all of my essence, so of course, your cultivation speed will be fast,” Jiang Ming said.
“Yeah. You’re right,” Phoenix Linglong replied. “I want more!”
“What?” Jiang Ming shuddered. “Nope, nope, nope. Let’s stop for the time being. I still have other more important stuff to attend to.”
“Hmph! I’m sure it’s because you can’t do it anymore!”
“I can’t do it anymore? Girl, you shouldn’t challenge me!” Jiang Ming replied, but he rubbed his back in secret.
Then, he entered the Supreme Chat Group.
Something good was happening there.
