Chapter 117: Ambitions
“It’s rare for your father to visit you and yet you show no reaction? You’re making your father very sad!” Du Guxiong observed Du Guyun with a smile.
“At the fifth level of the Life and Death Realm, your cultivation has improved rapidly, thanks to the Immortal Devouring Skill!”
“However, there are too many impurities in your body. For the time being, you must stop devouring others’ essence,” Du Guxiong said, his eyes piercing through Du Guyun’s facade, speaking the same words as Cang Lao.
“Did you come here just to say this?” Du Guyun frowned, looking a bit impatient. Even though he knew the truth, he still despised Du Guxiong and did not regard him as his father.
Du Guxiong was unfazed and spoke lightly, “Of course not! Do you want to become an unrivaled genius? Do you want to increase your cultivation even faster?”
“If you’re willing, the heirs of all the major sects and clans in the Nine Heavens Realm can be your prey! Qin Ershi, Huang Qingtian, the Golden Crow God Son, even the Primordial Holy Son, I can help you hunt them down!”
Du Guyun’s pupils constricted, his body shook, and his breathing became heavier. For him, these names were like poison, laced with fatal allure.
Each of these individuals was an unrivaled genius of the current era, impeccable in combat power and talent. If he could completely devour one of them and transform their essence into his own, he too could leap to become an unrivaled genius.
“Which one do you want?” Du Guxiong asked with a smile.
“The Primordial Holy Son!” Du Guyun chose Jiang Chen without hesitation. Of all the people in the world, Jiang Chen was the one he most wanted to devour.
If he could devour Jiang Chen, he would not only possess Jiang Chen’s talent and combat power but also potentially take his place as the Primordial Holy Son. Once Jiang Chen was gone, the position of the holy son would need a new successor, and he would be the most suitable candidate.
“So you really want to replace him as a Holy Son! But he’s not easy to handle. Choose someone else!” Du Guxiong said, still smiling.
“Are you playing with me?” Du Guyun’s face darkened. If it wasn’t possible, why did Du Guxiong bring it up? He thought to himself, ‘Just wait. Once my power grows stronger, I’ll make you regret it.’
“It’s not that serious! It’s just that killing the Primordial Holy is very difficult, and it could easily expose you!” Du Guxiong said. “Do you not wish to stay in the Primordial Holy Land?”
He did not lack the desire to kill Jiang Chen, but he was well aware of the difficulties. As the Holy Son of the Primordial Holy Land, Jiang Chen was always accompanied by Mu Jianxue. Presently, few could rival her.
Most importantly, once they made a move, support from the Primordial Holy Land would swiftly arrive.
They would also face the wrath of the Primordial Holy Land.
Currently, the Extreme Path Demon Sect was no match for the Primordial Holy Land. Hence, Du Guxiong initially had no intention of making a move against Jiang Chen. It was not worth it, nor was it feasible.
“Then tell me, who can I choose besides the him? Don’t tell me there’s no one I can pick!” Du Guyun was extremely dissatisfied as he was particularly averse to being played.
“It’s not that bad. Except for him and Huang Qingtian, you can pick anyone else! Even Qin the Second is an option! It’s up to you to choose!” Du Guxiong spoke indifferently.
He was extremely fond of his son, Du Guyun. To help Du Guyun grow quickly, he did not hesitate to take action against the heirs of these immortal forces.
Once they made a move, they would have to face the thunderous retribution of the immortal forces.
Of course, he didn’t care about that.
It was indeed difficult for Du Guyun to make a choice. Huang Qingtian and Jiang Chen were the two strongest geniuses. If Du Guyun could devour their essence, he could soar to great heights.
The others were somewhat weaker.
Among them, the heirs of the ancient imperial clans were almost equal, except for the God Son of the Golden Winged Peng bird clan who was somewhat inferior.
Qin Ershi and Bai Chen were almost equal, while the Holy Son of Pure Yang was slightly weaker and so on.
‘There is another peerless genius!’ He suddenly thought of the three great human geniuses: Jiang Chen, Qin the Second, and a Ye family genius.
It was rumored that the Ye family genius had an exceptional talent and astonishing combat power, not much inferior to Huang Qingtian.
“How about the Ye family genius!” Du Guyun looked up, gazing at Du Guxiong and speaking solemnly.
Although the rumors were not entirely accurate, the Ye family genius had been boasted about for so long, there must be something extraordinary about him.
Even if he was not as strong as Jiang Chen and the others, he should be slightly stronger than Qin Ershi.
Hmm.
He considered Qin Ershi as the weakest of the three great human geniuses.
Du Guxiong was momentarily stunned, clearly not expecting the other party to target the Ye family genius.
The next moment, he shook his head and said, “It’s not that we can’t do it, but the Ye family genius has a mysterious origin and has been hiding within the Ye family world for many years.”
“It’s basically impossible to kill him unless, like the recent case with the Undying Phoenix Clan, the three great ancient imperial clans take action together. Only then is it possible to kill the Ye family genius!”
“Of course, if he ventures into the outside world, we will have a chance! But we have never heard of him venturing into the outside world, so you should choose someone else!”
It wasn’t that he couldn’t do it, nor that he didn’t dare to make a move.
It was just that the situation of the Ye family genius was special, making it very difficult for them to take action. There was no chance at all.
Although they were confident in their own strength, deep down, they still possessed some self-awareness. It was simply impossible to take action within the Ye family.
“Then Qin Ershi!” Du Guyun was a bit annoyed. Saying anyone would do, but in reality, this one wouldn’t do, that one wouldn’t do.
Among the three great human race’s prodigies, they could only choose Qin Ershi.
“Fine!” Du Guxiong threw a token to Du Guyun and said, “You may not be unable to kill the Primordial Holy Son. When you enter the Supreme Palace, someone will cooperate with you. If you and he can join hands to kill him, then you can also achieve your wish!”
“If there is no opportunity, then kill Qin Ershi! If all these fail, when you leave the Supreme Palace, I will personally take action to help you kill Qin Ershi and let you completely devour his origin!”
“The former depends on how well you perform yourself, the latter I can assure you that Qin Ershi will undoubtedly die!” Du Guyun’s tone was calm, with full confidence.
As long as it wasn’t a domineering power like the Primordial Holy Land, he was fully confident. He simply didn’t take ordinary immortal forces seriously.
“I hope you can do it!”
Du Guyun was not a three-year-old child and wouldn’t just believe whatever others said. It seemed that Du Guxiong had a winning ticket, as if everything could be resolved.
But whether it could be done or not was still not certain. Hindered in the past, Du Guyun would definitely not believe and would immediately leave.
But thinking about the power and identity to be confronted, and the temptation of Qin Ershi’s talent.
This made Du Guyun completely willing to take a risk this time believing in Du Guxiong once. If he could devour Qin Ershi’s origin, it’s hard to say about how much his combat power will increase but at least the talent will on the same starting line.
In the future, after devouring more prodigies. Not to mention combat power, even strength could completely surpass the opponent. Even trample the opponent underfoot.
“You are my only son! I will help you wholeheartedly, just hope you won’t let me down in the future!” Du Guxiong’s tone was ethereal, with profound meaning.
His figure slowly disappeared like a bubble. With the departure of Du Guxiong, the surroundings also returned to complete calm.
“Du Guxiong?” Cang Lao sensed the departing power and cautiously said.
“Hmm! He wants to help me kill Qin Ershi!” Du Guyun said softly.
“Kill Qin Ershi?” Cang Lao trembled all over, his face in disbelief!
