Chapter 2138 The Demon God Reappears
The main hall was empty, without a single person in sight, except for an altar with intricate runes that was silently operating.
As the image appeared, the altar's operation suddenly stopped, and then water-like patterns rippled across its surface.
Soon, a head emerged from the altar and rose higher and higher, as if someone were walking out from inside the altar.
But only when the head was completely removed from the altar could others realize that he had no body!
The flying skull's face was covered with a blinding white aura, making it impossible to see its features clearly.
As soon as he appeared, he headed towards the golden light and shadow, seemingly wanting to get closer and see it more clearly.
"Yes, it is Him."
As the voice rang out, the light on Fei Long's face suddenly dissipated, revealing his true appearance.
If Luo Hong were here, she would immediately recognize that this person was the current head of the Tianyan Temple, and would be greatly surprised.
In Luo Hong's mind, the Heavenly Evolution Master himself had already perished, and his body, corrupted by chaos, had been banished back to the chaotic heavens along with "Xuanyuan Jie"!
In reality, before descending upon the Eight Desolate Mountains, "Xuanyuan Jie" did not bring his true form with him as a precaution, but instead used his supernatural powers to create a clay clone.
After that, the Heavenly Evolution Head made no further noise and disappeared without a trace.
It turns out he was hiding in the Heavenly Court.
At this time, the only person who could contact him was the Heavenly Sovereign Gu Huojin!
"Since you knew, then you deliberately concealed it!"
Whether ancient or modern, the tone suddenly turned cold, and the eyes revealed a fierce glint.
"What are you hiding? Don't you know about this treasure?"
Tianyan's head, however, did not feel any pressure and turned around to ask a question in return.
“I know the origin of the Heavenly Bottle, but it has never displayed such power before, and you are clearly not surprised by it!”
Gu Huojin recognized the Heavenly Bottle at a glance and knew it was an important treasure that helped Li Yuanjiu achieve the position of Dao Ancestor.
Before this, this treasure could only accelerate the ripening of immortal medicine and produce some time crystals; it was not considered to be heaven-defying.
However, what has happened now? As the Time Dao Ancestor, he actually suffered a loss from a celestial artifact within the Great Dao of Time!
If this were told to others, no one would believe it!
"Or are you saying that playing these word games is your way of showing your sincerity in cooperating with me?"
As they spoke, golden light gathered in Gu Huojin's palm.
Clearly, if Tianyan's head cannot give him a satisfactory answer, he will decisively take action and kill the other party!
“You are our future sovereign. If we deceive you now, it would be like digging our own grave.”
The reason we didn't warn you beforehand is that this treasure has countless forms and its aura is hard to find.
If it doesn't actively display its power, we won't be able to tell the difference.
Tianyan's head appeared calm, but his tone became noticeably more urgent.
"If that's the case, do you know why He suddenly unleashed His power?"
There's no point in continuing the charade or deception, whether in ancient or modern times. He's been on board for a long time, and now he's about to set sail.
Unless there is an absolute conflict, he cannot disembark!
"The Origin Treasures are displaying such power, and we are still alive, for only one reason: the Primordial Demon God has returned to his rightful place and has restrained his instinct to destroy the world!"
At this point, Tianyan's expression instantly turned serious.
"So, it seems we've gained another formidable enemy!"
Gu Huojin frowned inwardly upon hearing this. What did he mean by "we are still alive"? Did he mean that they would definitely die once the Primordial Demon God returned to his position?
To put it bluntly, the other party is nothing more than a cultivator!
“That’s right, but we still have time. If the Primordial Demon God doesn’t want to destroy the world, the only option at this stage is to seal himself off.”
However, as long as we, the Chaos faction, gather three Supreme Demon Gods, we will be able to fight against them.
As the saying goes, in the beginning there was one, then chaos gave rise to three—this is it!
Tianyan nodded earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Gu Huojin's brows visibly relaxed.
Because he had already verified that the Space Demon God and the Reincarnation Demon God from the Chaos side had returned to their positions, and now only he, the Time Demon God, was missing!
"What should we do with this Origin Treasure?"
This question was the real purpose of Gu Huojin's visit. He had long coveted the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc of the Lord of Reincarnation Palace, but he only had a second-grade peak time artifact in his hands.
Now that's great! The Origin Treasure of the Time System is undoubtedly above the peak of the first rank in terms of quality!
So, his real purpose in coming here was to extract information about how to subdue the Origin Treasure!
"It cannot be dealt with, nor is it necessary to deal with it. The power of the Origin Treasure is unfathomable. Only those with the power of a Supreme Demon God can refine it."
But don't worry, there's more than one Origin Treasure; the depths of chaos are not lacking.
Tianyan shook his head and began to explain.
Gu Huojin was overjoyed upon hearing this, as it meant that as long as he became the Time Demon God, he would immediately obtain an Origin Treasure.
"However, his words seemed somewhat pre-planned, so we still can't give up on the Heavenly Bottle too easily."
Gu Huojin keenly realized that there might be a linguistic trap hidden in Tianyan's head's words, so his eyes flickered slightly, and he changed the subject:
"How's the refinement of that finger going?"
"This thing is similar to my laws. In another hundred years, I will be able to completely refine it."
As he spoke, a flash of white light appeared between Tianyan's eyebrows, and a jade-like, flawless, snow-white index finger emerged, resembling a strange unicorn horn.
"It actually works!"
Gu Huojin was extremely familiar with this finger because its owner was none other than his greatest supporter—Chen Tuan Tianjun!
This finger is a relic left behind by the Dao Ancestor after he was devoured by the Great Dao.
Seeing that the head of Tianyan could indeed refine other laws of power, Gu Huojin's desire for the power of chaos deepened even more!
Stepping out of the main hall and reactivating the protective barrier, Gu Huojin stood silently before the hall's entrance for a while, then suddenly sighed:
"The Origin Treasure, the Supreme Demon God, this world is far larger than I imagined before. If I had allowed the Great Dao to suppress it, how could I have seen these wonderful sights!"
"Thus, it is clear that the path I chose was the right one!"
There must be a reason why the corpse can replace the original body.
Meanwhile, in the Great Immortal Realm of the Central Plains, within the eye of the Black Sea.
Shui Changtian had already brought Yuan Xianzi and Song Yaoguang to his Water Palace.
They did not leave the sea eye, because this water palace was actually just a larger prison cell.
However, the water palace is heavily restricted, which not only prevents cultivators inside from experiencing pain, but also regulates the power of the sea eye, creating suitable cultivation conditions for the water-based laws.
"Your Excellency, what are our duties?"
Seeing that Shui Changtian hadn't assigned them any tasks until he was about to leave, Fairy Yuan couldn't help but ask.
Because for sinful immortals like them to enjoy preferential treatment, they must serve in the prison.
Although the preferential treatment at this moment was a bit too good, Fairy Yuan didn't think much of it.
Shui Changtian was taken aback by her question, then looked at Song Yaoguang with some anticipation.
He finally realized that Fairy Yuan was just a tool being used by Luo Hong, and that Song Yaoguang was the only one who could truly make decisions here.
If Shui Changtian could assign duties to the two women, he would be happy to facilitate it.
After all, this way he could easily get the two women away.
But obviously, Song Yaoguang wouldn't make such a basic mistake.
“Senior Yuan, our sentences are not for hundreds or thousands of years, so there is no need to rush our duties.”
The master has just returned; let's not trouble him any further.
Song Yaoguang decided to postpone the matter indefinitely, and then looked at Shui Changtian and said:
"My lord, I have encountered some difficulties in my cultivation today. Would you be so kind as to help me resolve them?"
"Yes, I have a great fondness for diligent people. Come with me."
Shui Changtian outwardly put on a dignified appearance, but inwardly he was secretly groaning.
Song Yaoguang had a restriction on his hand that could directly activate the white light within his body, so he dared not disagree.
"I never imagined that after cultivating for tens of millions of years, I, Shui Changtian, would have my life held by a mere Taiyi cultivator!"
After bidding farewell to Song Yaoguang, Fairy Yuan watched the two fly away, feeling as if it were all too real.
Are they really being tortured?
"Alas, how can the Heavenly Court maintain such internal collusion in the long run!"
Finally, Fairy Yuan sighed, then took the token and fled towards her residence.
Soon after, Shui Changtian led Song Yaoguang to a grand hall, where the two sat down face to face.
Seeing this, Shui Changtian immediately understood that the other party intended to monitor him continuously for twelve hours.
With his cultivation level, it wouldn't have been difficult for him to bypass Song Yaoguang's perception and use some tricks.
But now, as long as he slightly activates the power of the law, the restrictions within his body will fluctuate, and Song Yaoguang will undoubtedly sense it.
So if he's constantly being watched like this, he's basically unable to take any action.
"Young friend Song, my cultivation relies heavily on the power of the Sea Eye, which is far beyond the capacity of a Taiyi cultivator. I wonder if you could retreat outside the restriction?"
Shui Changtian's move was undoubtedly an attempt to use the barrier to create some cover, giving him room to make his own moves.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. In that case, please lend me the power of the Sea Eye, which will not threaten the Taiyi cultivators."
Upon hearing this, Song Yaoguang refused to budge an inch and snorted coldly.
Shui Changtian's smile froze instantly, but he didn't dare to react and could only nod silently.
But just as he was about to perform the hand seals for cultivation, he heard Song Yaoguang speak up:
"However, if you are willing to do me a favor, I am not unwilling to make an exception."
Huh? There's actually a chance!
Shui Changtian's heart skipped a beat, surprised by this unexpected turn of events. He quickly suppressed his excitement and said:
"Appreciate further details."
"I'm sure you already know about my background, sir. I don't ask for much; I just want you to investigate the whereabouts of my grandfather, Song Jinding, and verify the relevant cases."
The reason why Song Yaoguang was willing to listen to Luo Hong's advice and join the Immortal Prison was because her grandfather was captured by the Immortal Prison before she was born.
Although she had no feelings for her grandfather, this was an extremely heavy blow to the Song family.
After all, there must be a crime for anyone to be arrested in the Immortal Prison, so the Song family's loss at that time was not simply a matter of losing a pillar of support.
Even though they sacrificed a great deal of family interests, the Song family still had an extremely difficult time in those years.
Although the Song family later recovered thanks to its hidden resources, Song Yaoguang's parents had tragically died before that, due to the family's decline.
For many years, Song Yaoguang had been obsessed with this matter, and now that he finally had the opportunity, he naturally wanted to find out the truth!
If her grandfather had truly violated the laws of the immortals, she would have no grounds for complaint.
But if what her parents told her was true, her grandfather was innocent.
Even if she had to give everything, she would still have to ask Luo Hong to help her this once!
After learning the details, Shui Changtian was overjoyed. He thought to himself that Luo Hong would never guess that he had such ulterior motives in arranging people. He immediately used his power to help investigate.
Song Yaoguang, who was sitting cross-legged opposite him, also noticed the fleeting joy on his face, but she did not regret it. Instead, she felt a little disdain.
This wasn't a decision she made on her own; Luo Hong had specifically reminded her of it before leaving.
According to Luo Hong, he wanted to take this opportunity to fulfill his promise from back then and thank Song Yaoguang for his help over the years.
However, Song Yaoguang did not agree that this was merely an equal return, and was deeply grateful.
Her disdain stemmed from the fact that Luo Hong had anticipated all of Shui Changtian's reactions.
"I never expected that Brother Mo would be so unafraid of the Dao Ancestor behind him."
Whenever she thought about the result of her inquiry, Song Yaoguang felt a sense of unreality. Fortunately, she trusted Luo Hong enough, so she just sighed for the moment.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Shui Changtian obtained what Song Yaoguang wanted and inscribed it into a blue jade slip.
"Young friend Song, please step outside the barrier first. Once I activate the barrier, I will immediately give you the jade slip."
Shui Chang was naturally afraid of being deceived and was extremely cautious.
Song Yaoguang did not suppress her desire for the jade slip and immediately nodded in agreement.
However, just as the deal was completed and Song Yaoguang had just grasped the jade slip, a grand voice suddenly came from high above:
Where is the heavens?
That's impressive.
He is the Dao Ancestor!
Shui Changtian was overjoyed.
This is incredibly lucky! Before he could even take any action, Senior Feng came looking for him himself!
But this ecstasy didn't last long before it was interrupted by a cold, stern voice!
"you wanna die!"
Shui Changtian turned to look at Song Yaoguang, only to see her eyes wide with anger and a resolute look on her face. He knew he was in trouble!
"Wait! I didn't do anything, don't do anything rash!"
Shui Changtian's face turned ashen. Although Feng Qingshui was his savior, he was also his death warrant.
The key lies in whether he can appease Song Yaoguang.
Song Yaoguang was in a state of turmoil because Luo Hong had said before leaving that Shui Changtian was not a decisive person and that he would hesitate for several days before contacting the Dao Ancestor behind him.
But now, not even a day has passed, and that Dao Ancestor has already come to our door.
This timing error could very well threaten what Luo Hong is doing.
"I have no way to escape now, but at least before I die, I must silence him and buy Brother Mo some time!"
With a sudden surge of determination, Song Yaoguang was about to activate the restriction in her palm!
