Chapter 914 The Martial Emperor's Secret, The Desolate Dragon Blood Cauldron
Chapter 914 The Martial Emperor's Secret, The Desolate Dragon Blood Cauldron
Layers of oppressive force, like cotton meeting water, pressed down on Ye Kang from all directions, squeezing him tightly.
If it were an ordinary Nirvana martial artist with a physique, reaching this position would likely have caused their physical body to collapse from the pressure. But Ye Kang simply flexed his muscles, his entire body radiating blood energy, maximizing his potential.
In this state, the physical tempering is very effective. Ye Kang can feel that his physical strength is increasing every moment, and he has not yet reached the critical point.
Further ahead, one foot, two feet, twenty feet, fifty feet!
To everyone's astonishment, Ye Kang, relying solely on his demonic body, reached three hundred feet!
An unprecedented feat!
Such a distance is beyond the reach of everyone else. Even Wu Jiuyuan, who is chasing him the most closely, has only just entered the 450-foot mark and has already reached his limit, unable to advance any further.
Only then did Ye Kang slowly raise his head and gaze at the corpse of Emperor Wu, which was so close to him.
Three hundred feet is about my limit. No matter how much I struggle, I can only move forward a few feet, and the risks are huge, so it's not worth it.
His muscles and bones were taut to the extreme. Without a doubt, if Ye Kang were to unleash his power as a punch, he could absolutely blast apart the body of a late-stage Nirvana Realm martial artist.
"Then, it's time to begin to understand."
Ye Kang sat down on the spot, activated his primordial spirit, and came into contact with the rich Dao trace aura around him.
The so-called inheritance is actually the experience of Emperor Wu remaining in the Dao trace. All the martial arts he practiced and the experience he gained in his life have been transformed into precious wealth and integrated into the Dao trace.
Even if we can extract even a little bit from it, it would be a tremendous benefit.
Ye Kang calmed his mind, his primordial spirit flowing through every wisp of chaotic Dao trace energy.
These are merely remnants of Dao traces from Emperor Wu's corpse; strictly speaking, they are not true Dao traces.
Even so, Ye Kang didn't feel anything. He wasn't in a hurry and continued to calm down.
The Holy Emperor gave everyone three days. Within those three days, as long as they didn't do anything reckless, they wouldn't have to leave the Martial God Space.
Soon, each genius reached their limit, and everyone sat down at their limit to begin their enlightenment.
Only three people were able to get within 500 feet.
Ye Kang, who is 300 feet tall; Wu Jiuyuan, who is 450 feet tall; and Hua Nongying, who is 499 feet tall.
Wu Jiuyuan was not surprised, but Ye Kang was somewhat astonished that Hua Nongying could reach this position.
After all, she was not a body-tempering martial artist, and her physical strength was far weaker than his and Wu Jiuyuan's.
But she still managed to get into the 500-foot range, which can only mean that she had some extraordinary encounters.
Time passed little by little, and soon it was the third day.
Many people smiled with delight, having received a satisfactory inheritance.
Ye Kang still gained nothing, but he still didn't use his comprehension, relying purely on his talent.
If once doesn't work, then try twice or three times.
Finally, after another two hours, Ye Kang's efforts paid off.
Suddenly, a wisp of Daoist aura was attracted by his primordial spirit and slowly absorbed over.
With a thought, Ye Kang immediately enveloped it with his divine sense, and then countless pieces of information flooded into his mind.
His brows furrowed as he processed this information, when a majestic and righteous voice rang out.
“My name is Wu Dao. I was born in Liejun Village, Wuzhou. But unlike the people in the village, I don’t have the lower body of a horse, nor do I have a beautiful red mane. From birth, I was the fastest growing. Before I was six years old, I was already taller than the strongest warrior in the village.”
"When I was eight years old, I fought alongside my people against outsiders and was seriously wounded. On my deathbed, a locust tree saved me."
"Later I learned that it was actually an incarnation of the Misty Continent Emperor Huai. He took me as his disciple and told me that I was not actually a member of the Liejun clan, but a descendant of the ancient barbarians with the blood of an ancient clan."
"After that, I practiced the techniques passed down by Emperor Huai and gradually awakened the bloodline of the ancient clan, strengthening my physical body and becoming invincible throughout the world."
"Those who inherit my legacy can also rival the heavens and the earth, refine ancient blood, and possess a body capable of creating the world!"
Rumble!
Ye Kang felt as if a violent explosion had occurred in his mind. That spirited voice, every word like a thunderclap, shocked Ye Kang until his face turned deathly pale.
As Ye Kang gradually processed the information, his expression grew even more horrified, as if he had discovered some terrifying secret.
Emperor Wu was not human!
That's right, that voice just now belonged to the young Martial Emperor, who had achieved fame at a young age and was full of vigor and boundless energy!
What he was talking about was his own origins.
Wu Dao comes from Wuzhou, and is not human, but an ancient bloodline that has awakened the power of the ancient wilderness!
No wonder, no wonder his corpse was so huge. It was impossible for a human to have such a physical body unless one was in a state of "Heaven and Earth in Harmony".
And after death, he will not maintain the state of heaven and earth, which means that this is his true form!
Ancient bloodline, born giants!
That explains it. No wonder the Wu Dynasty and Wuzhou have such a close relationship. It turns out that Emperor Huai was the angel investor of the Wu Dynasty.
After figuring it out, Ye Kang gasped in shock.
What the hell is this secret?!
If someone were to go out and say that Emperor Wu was not human, wouldn't the royal family chase after him and hack him to pieces?
He quickly composed himself, not daring to show the slightest abnormality.
Besides revealing this secret, the real opportunity for this inheritance lies in another part.
Emperor Wu's research on the bloodline of ancient clans.
According to the information Ye Kang obtained, Emperor Wu had once searched for the ruins of the ancient tribes and learned some of their secrets.
Specifically, the alien races in Wuzhou are all descended from ancient clans, such as the Night Maidens clan and the Fierce Steed clan from which the Martial Emperor originated.
However, the ancient bloodline within these alien races has become almost nonexistent.
Emperor Wu was an unexpected event that only occurs once every million years, awakening the orthodox bloodline of the ancient race.
His initial intention was also to use his own blood to propagate more ancient clans.
But it was later discovered that it was impossible. Even his direct descendants could not reach the level of pure blood; at most, they could only awaken one-tenth of their bloodline.
Therefore, Emperor Wu sought a different approach and found an excellent method.
He extracted a portion of his own bloodline and fused it with the bloodline of the aliens to forge a Desolate Dragon Blood Cauldron. Later generations only need to soak in the cauldron for forty-nine days to suppress the bloodline of the ancient race with the bloodline of the human race and turn it into their own inner core.
As long as the inner core is activated, the ancient clan bloodline will be immediately stimulated, and the power of a pure-blooded ancient clan can be unleashed.
Of course, this is only temporary; once the inner core's power is exhausted, the bloodline will disappear.
In other words, this is a large-sized Blood Burst Pill that can be recycled.
After digesting this information, Ye Kang fell into deep thought.
From Emperor Wu's memories, it can be seen that the bloodline of the ancient race can only be described as defying the heavens.
Ye Kang estimated that if he activated his ancient clan bloodline, his physical strength would increase at least tenfold, allowing him to break through all techniques with sheer force and easily fight opponents of higher levels.
The only problem is that this Desolate Dragon Blood Cauldron is located in Misty Continent, and it will take time to find it.
"We need to find a way to get to Wuzhou in a legitimate way."
Ye Kang took a deep breath and buried this secret in his heart.
Soon, three days passed, and the opening time of the Martial God Space ended. A beam of teleportation light descended, and everyone was teleported out.
Upon returning to the palace, the group of geniuses displayed a variety of expressions.
Some people were very pleased with themselves and received an excellent inheritance.
Some people looked unwilling, seemingly dissatisfied with their harvest.
Seeing this, Ye Xiang said, "Everyone, there is no need to worry. Everything is preordained. If the time is not right, you cannot force the opportunity."
The Imperial Preceptor nodded and said, "That's right. You are all geniuses. There's no need to be upset about temporary gains or losses. The Heavenly Dharma Assembly is now over. You may all go with the Third Prince to pay homage to the Holy Emperor."
After saying that, the third prince took flight and flew upwards.
Everyone followed immediately.
During the journey, Su Hongxiu and the others came to Ye Kang's side: "How is it? You're so close, you should have received the best inheritance, right?"
Ye Kang smiled and said, "I wouldn't call it the best, but I did get a primordial spirit attack technique, which made up for some of my shortcomings."
"I envy you. If I had your talent, I wouldn't have been beaten and scolded by my father." Jin Lingfeng shook his head and smiled bitterly, looking sad.
At this moment, Su Hongxiu gave Ye Kang a wink, and the latter immediately understood.
The Dharma assembly is over; it's time to get down to business.
We still need Jin Lingfeng's help to deal with General Su's matter.
Ye Kang laughed and said, "Brother Jin, you are too modest. It is precisely because of your outstanding talent that King Wei is urging you on and does not want you to get involved in insect fighting."
"Sigh, it's just playing with some insects. I don't know what Father is thinking, insisting on controlling me on this. But it's alright, now that I have the sword, halberd, and sandbag, I'm invincible in insect battles, and he can't say anything about it."
“Brother Jin, I’m not very interested in insect fighting. This Biluo Langjun rarely gets a chance to show its strength in my hands, so I’ll give it to you so that he can have a chance to fight on the battlefield.”
Ye Kang smiled, but what he said made Jin Lingfeng freeze in shock.
"Are you serious! That's the handsome prince!"
"It's true, but it's not a free gift. There's something I might need Brother Jin's help with."
Upon hearing this, Jin Lingfeng burst into laughter.
"Don't mention helping, that's too formal. Your business is my business, so please feel free to speak!"
Ye Kang sighed: "It's about General Su. You must know about his feud with that Eagle King. If you can help, please ask King Wei to give permission to attack the Eagle King. That would also help General Su fulfill his dream."
Ye Kang spoke with utmost sincerity.
Jin Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, then fell into deep thought.
"General Su's beloved wife was killed by Eagle King, and this revenge must be taken..."
At this point, he suddenly remembered that Su Hongxiu was also there, and his face immediately turned pale: "I'm sorry!"
Su Hongxiu shook her head: "It doesn't matter. My mother was killed by that eagle. As long as we can kill it, it's all worth it."
Ye Kang was also taken aback; he really didn't know about this.
So this is why Su Zhongjing insisted on killing the Eagle King. No wonder, with his wife's killer always by his side, he couldn't take revenge. I wonder how frustrated General Su must have felt all these years.
Jin Lingfeng also sighed and said, "I will definitely speak about this matter, but I cannot guarantee whether it will succeed. My father has not killed the Eagle Emperor because a demon emperor of the demon race has protected the Eagle Emperor. If a war breaks out, I am afraid it will cause a great war between the Dao Realms, which will be difficult to resolve."
“I understand, but my father is determined to kill the Eagle Emperor, so his request is simple: as long as the Heavenly King Wei comes forward and makes a three-point agreement with Emperor Nanli, that neither side will interfere with the other and neither will send anyone to help. He will handle the rest himself.”
Su Hongxiu's expression was calm, but her tone was very firm.
Ye Kang and Jin Lingfeng both fell silent upon hearing this.
General Su had planned this from the very beginning; he was going to risk his life.
Without the intervention of other experts at the Returning to Truth Realm, how could Su Zhongjing possibly fight the Eagle Emperor alone?
Jin Lingfeng said in a low voice, "As far as I know, the Eagle Emperor has already stepped into the late-stage Demon Saint realm, equivalent to the Yang Realm in the human race, while General Su should only be..."
"He has only gathered two streams of energy, reaching the Yang Chu realm. Furthermore, the Eagle Emperor could reach the Yin Mie realm at any time," Su Hongxiu said directly.
Jin Lingfeng didn't say much, only showing a complicated expression.
The difference in strength is too great; isn't this like throwing an egg against a rock?
General Su, this is not just risking your life, it's practically suicide...
Ye Kang was also hearing about this for the first time, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
General Su knew that time was running out. Once the Eagle Emperor became a late-stage Demon Saint, he would have no chance to take revenge.
Although the gap in strength is still huge, at least there is still a chance.
No wonder he went to such lengths to promote me; it was simply because I was on good terms with Jin Lingfeng.
Even if there's only a sliver of a chance, it's worth giving it your all.
Thinking of this, Ye Kang couldn't help but take a deep breath.
A gentleman judges by actions, not intentions. Regardless of the circumstances, I have received a great favor from the Su family, which is why I have had so many opportunities.
Since that's the case, then this matter is my responsibility.
Ye Kang didn't dwell on it and simply took it upon himself to handle the matter.
This is also for the sake of achieving enlightenment in one's own mind.
At that moment, the system suddenly sounded.
【Ding】
[Mission Released: Soaring Eagles Through the Skies]
[Mission Requirements: Within three months, help Su Zhongjing kill Ying Aofeng]
[Task Reward: 8000000 Comprehension Points]
Ye Kang's heart skipped a beat, and his eyelids twitched again.
Eight million points of enlightenment are almost as much as the search for the Yin Saint Demon Lord.
It seems the system is quite principled; the task came at just the right time.
Ye Kang said, "Chief, no matter when the General takes action, please be sure to inform me."
Su Hongxiu nodded: "Of course, there will still be some demon kings that we need to help eliminate, and we also need to stabilize the situation in Lingquan County to prevent any unrest."
Su Hongxiu thought Ye Kang only wanted to help with a small matter, but she didn't expect that Ye Kang's idea was to intervene in the Great Battle of Returning to Truth.
Of course, this is too difficult, we can't rush it, we need to significantly improve our strength first.
Meanwhile, while the group was communicating telepathically, the Third Prince had already led everyone to a palace.
The main hall was towering and magnificent, with many officials lined up on both sides.
The Third Prince bowed respectfully to the highest platform: "Your Majesty, the Dharma Assembly has concluded successfully, and the talents of the Martial Dynasty have come to pay their respects."
On the dragon throne on the high platform, the Holy Emperor nodded in satisfaction.
"These are all pillars of society. This Dharma assembly has moved even me greatly. Guards, reward them!"
