Chapter 335 Canglan's Scheme
Gu Yuchuan's journey through the dragon realm has been going very smoothly. In the past month, he has not encountered any effective resistance, which makes him very happy. Now, he is only a short distance away from entering the sea. However, Yao Guang City is a place he cannot cross. He also knows from the simulator that there is even a Dragon-Slaying Sword waiting for him there.
However, Gu Yuchuan wasn't afraid. In his simulator, he was still able to pass through the eighth level of the Golden Core realm, let alone the ninth level now. His strength had increased somewhat, and it would definitely be easier than in the simulator. He was just worried that they might have other methods, so he felt he still needed to plan ahead.
He contacted the Demon Lord through the Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor. Although the Heavenly Roc Demon Emperor didn't know what he wanted to do, he could still help with this contact. However, the Demon Lord only gave him a means of instant communication and did not come in person. They could not leave easily because they were suppressing the Heavenly Dao. The Demon Lord had to come to rescue them last time. There was no other way, otherwise the Demon Lord would not have come out.
"Demon Lord, I have recently sensed something in the heavens that will appear in Yao Guang City ahead, something that can restrain me. That thing is called the Dragon Slayer Sword, and it may be very dangerous. I wonder if the Demon Lord could bestow upon me a treasure to restrain this Dragon Slayer Sword."
On the other side, the Demon Lord's expression turned extremely ugly. Not a single dragon could remain unresponsive upon hearing the words "Dragon-Slaying Sword." They hated this thing to the core. It was a treasure specifically crafted for dragons, stained with the blood of countless dragons. If it were anything else, the Demon Lord might not necessarily care about Gu Yuchuan. After all, this was his own dragon-walking journey, and he couldn't be expected to do everything for him.
Therefore, he only restricted cultivators in the Nascent Soul and Core Formation stages from taking action, without restricting those in the Golden Core stage. However, he felt it was necessary to take care of the Dragon Slayer Sword, and even to find out who possessed it. It was better for such a thing not to be passed down.
He thought for a moment, then took out a ball of demonic energy. This was a type of malevolent energy, but after being contaminated by demonic energy, its corrupting power was even stronger. Even he, a Nascent Soul stage expert, had to seal it away properly, otherwise, it would be dangerous if he were contaminated by it.
"I'm entrusting this ball of demonic energy to you. Just be careful when you use it, and don't let yourself get tainted. This kind of rare treasure is not a magic weapon. It just has special effects, but it doesn't have the defense of a magic weapon. So this thing is enough to corrupt it and make it lose all its divine power. However, this may cause nearby cultivators to become possessed by demons, increasing their combat power. You should also use it with caution. This is all I can give you."
Gu Yuchuan was quite satisfied. Although this demonic energy might have many side effects, it was still a good thing no matter how you looked at it. The Demon Lord had put his heart into it; at least it was a method.
At this moment, in the Immortal Palace, Venerable Faming and the Immortal Venerable sat together. The atmosphere between them was somewhat awkward. After all, they used to be the greatest enemies, and they were going to fight to the death. Now they were sitting together. It was truly a testament to the unpredictability of life.
When Venerable Faming saw that the Immortal Venerable had summoned him but remained silent, his expression turned somewhat grim. He hadn't wanted to come in the first place, but since the Immortal Venerable had directly ordered him through the Heavenly Dao, he had no choice but to obey. After all, the Heavenly Dao's support was crucial to his advancement, and he couldn't afford to offend it.
"Immortal Venerable, what is the purpose of your summons? If you do not speak, I will depart. My time is precious and I cannot waste it here with you."
The Immortal Venerable looked at him with an unfriendly gaze. His hatred for Venerable Faming was extremely intense. Even without mentioning the Immortal Path conflict, Venerable Faming was the culprit who brought about the troubles of the Azure Cloud Realm, so he naturally hated him.
However, now, the Immortal Sect can't stop the dragon from leaving the mountain with its technological resources, so he has no choice but to join forces with it: "You know about the dragon leaving the mountain, right?"
When Venerable Faming heard him finally speak, he nodded. He naturally knew about the dragon's journey, which had been going on for so long. However, since the dragon had passed through the territory of the Technological Immortal Sect most of the time, he was not in a hurry and had not paid any attention to it.
The Immortal Venerable could tell what he was thinking just by looking at him: "Fool, let me tell you, if the Dragon Journey is completed, then the world share occupied by their Azure Cloud Realm will be enough to suppress the Heavenly Dao. At that time, our defeat will be inevitable. I'm not afraid to tell you that I am not originally from this world, which is why the Heavenly Dao does not like me. In the end, I can leave. I can give up the foundation I have built over so many years, but you can only die here. You decide what to do."
This time, Venerable Faming was a little flustered, but only for a moment. The other party would not leave. Since the Immortal Venerable had summoned him, it was to resolve this matter.
“Just tell me what to do. There’s no need to scare me with these things. If you wanted to leave, you would have left long ago. The reason you’re not leaving now is because you can’t let go of this legacy. I know you. If you didn’t have this legacy, your path of cultivation would have come to an end.”
This is indeed the Celestial Venerable's sore spot. His aptitude is too poor. If he cannot rely on this vast resource and fortune to advance, he can only go to the Main God Space. But fighting and killing there, being driven by others, is not as comfortable as being an ancestor here. He just doesn't want to leave.
"Alright, then I'll tell you. Call over all your Golden Core cultivators at the Great Perfection stage. I have some here too. Have them form a great formation. I also have a rare treasure called the Dragon Slayer Sword, which is used to kill dragons and stop the dragons from leaving. With all of this prepared, we do have a better chance of winning."
Venerable Faming still had many questions: "Why can't we have a Nascent Soul cultivator make a move, or can the two of us launch a sneak attack?"
The Immortal Venerable was so angry that he directly cursed him as an idiot, which made the atmosphere even more tense. Venerable Faming's face turned ugly again. He could not bear such humiliation, but he did not speak. The Immortal Venerable then began to explain.
"The other side consists of four Nascent Soul stage cultivators. Do you think you can defeat them or do I? If it weren't for them having to deal with the Heavenly Dao, we would have died long ago. What we need to do now is to destroy the dragon's path, increase the power of the Heavenly Dao, and let the Heavenly Dao restrain them. With more people than people, we still have a chance of winning. Otherwise, we might as well prepare to die."
Venerable Faming understood: "Alright, I have eight cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage." Although his tone wasn't very good, he was still cooperating and not acting impulsively. At this point, they really had no choice but to join forces.
