Chapter 694: Chapter 457: Wu Earth Bead, Emperor’s Book of Earth! _2
Their newly gained powers were not perfectly controlled, each of them emanating immortal essence, their momentum overwhelming.
Lord Cui waved his hand to suppress the fluctuation of their powers and said, “Now there are a large number of ordinary Yin spirits in Fengdu City. You should control your aura…otherwise, I’m afraid you might harm those ordinary Yin spirits.”
The group arrived in Fengdu City.
Elder Wang and the other experts left one after another.
Now, there were countless Yin spirits pouring into Fengdu City every moment, 24 hours a day. Wang Defa had been called over to help with the situation, and he had many tasks on his hands.
Lord Cui only brought an avatar.
His main body and other avatars had also been busy these days, and he had to go to the temporal space above the netherworld’s Blood Sea to meet Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu.
He brought Xu Yang, Yue Yuluo, and the thirty-eight newly ascended “heavenly immortals” to the armory of Fengdu City, ordered the underworld soldiers guarding it to activate the formation, and opened the armory door, saying, “Go ahead, you have 15 minutes. Whatever weapons and artifacts you can get, it depends on your luck!”
“Thank you, Lord Cui!”
The thirty-eight newly ascended heavenly immortals’ faces lit up with joy. After expressing their gratitude, they turned into immortal lights and shot directly into the armory.
Soon enough,
fifteen minutes passed.
Lord Cui waved his hand, and the thirty-eight newly ascended heavenly immortals were teleported out.
Judging by the expressions of the thirty-eight newly ascended heavenly immortals, it seemed that they had a rich harvest, probably having chosen their desired treasures and immortal artifacts.
Glancing at Xu Yang, Lord Cui smiled and said, “Would Celestial Master Xu like to go in and choose a weapon?”
Xu Yang, of course, wanted to.
But he had to be polite and said, “Older Brother Cui, that would be too embarrassing… How about just letting my wife go in and choose one?”
Lord Cui said, “Alright.”
With a wave of his hand, he sent Yue Yuluo into the armory.
Xu Yang: “…”
Come on!
I was just being polite. Why did you take it seriously?
It took Yue Yuluo a full hour to come out of the armory. In her hand, she held a yellowish brown bead and transmitted her voice discreetly, “Husband, the armory is so big, and inside, there’s actually a vast starry sky. Various treasures and immortal artifacts are stored on different planets.”
“As soon as I entered the armory, I felt that something was attracting me. I followed the sensation, and swam through the starry sky until I found a huge yellowish-brown star… Then the star turned into this bead.”
Xu Yang looked up at Lord Cui.
Lord Cui smiled and introduced, “This is Wu Earth Pearl, an artifact that Emperor Dongyue gathered from the origin of the earth in the past, using a star core as a carrier. It is a postnatal Spirit Treasure. You can comprehend its use after refining it.”
Obviously,
this “Wu Earth Pearl” was something Lord Cui had guided Yue Yuluo to obtain secretly.
The value of a “Postnatal Spirit Treasure” could be imagined.
As Xu Yang expressed his gratitude, Lord Cui laughed and said, “Since we are here at the armory, I might as well pick one for Celestial Master Xu myself.”
“Ah?”
Xu Yang was taken aback, thinking he would have preferred to choose one himself.
But before he could finish his sentence, he saw Lord Cui wave his hand.
Whoosh!
From the armory, an immortal light shot out at high speed.
Lord Cui reached out and grabbed the immortal light, which transformed into a book.
The cover of the book was a kind of earthen yellow color, giving a sense of heaviness. It exuded a mysterious and indescribable aura. Xu Yang was shocked and said, “Is this…the Book of Life and Death?”
Lord Cui laughed and said, “The Book of Life and Death is a treasure of Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu, temporarily controlled by me. How could I give it to you?”
He tossed the book to Xu Yang.
Xu Yang caught it and saw that the cover of the book read “Earth Emperor’s Book.”
“Earth Emperor’s Book?”
Xu Yang frowned and asked, “Older Brother Cui, what grade of treasure is this Earth Emperor’s Book? I’ve never heard of it before.”
You’ve never heard of your own treasure?
Lord Cui complained inwardly but smiled on the surface and said, “Considering your short time practicing, it is normal that you haven’t heard of the Earth Emperor’s Book… It is an Innate Spirit Treasure, one of the supreme treasures born in the eighteen layers of hell when the Underworld Palace was first opened. It ranks alongside the Book of Life and Death and the Feng Shen List, forming the Three Books of Heaven, Earth, and Human. Among them, the Feng Shen List is also called the Heavenly Book, and the Book of Life and Death is the Human Book.”
“The Earth Emperor’s Book is the Earth Book!”
Innate Spirit Treasure!
Xu Yang didn’t care about the Heavenly, Earthly, and Human Books. He was afraid that Lord Cui might regret and change his mind, so he quickly put the Earth Emperor’s Book into his storage space and said, “Thank you, Brother Cui… Brother Cui, from now on, you are my sworn brother!”
“Ding!”
“Lord Cui has been frightened, gaining +1 million merit points!”
Lord Cui shuddered and quickly said, “I dare not, I dare not… I’d better introduce the Earth Emperor’s Book to you… This Earth Emperor’s Book is an Innate Spirit Treasure, born in the eighteen layers of hell, and was later obtained by Emperor Dongyue… After Emperor Dongyue got the Earth Emperor’s Book, he further refined it, and even collected many prehistoric fierce beasts recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. You will know how to use it once you have refined it…”
“Well, I have a lot of things to do, so I won’t accompany you anymore.”
Swish!
Lord Cui turned into a divine light and fled away like he was escaping.
“???”
Xu Yang was puzzled and said in surprise, “I just said that he would be my sworn brother from now on… Why did Lord Cui seem so reluctant?”
Yue Yuluo, who was standing beside him, pondered, “Husband, why would Lord Cui give you such a precious treasure?”
“He must have known that the human world is about to face a catastrophe, so he’s trying various ways to support us.”
“But… why did he send us Emperor Dongyue’s treasures?”
“This…”
Xu Yang said, “It might be because the other powerful treasures already have masters, so he sent us Emperor Dongyue’s treasures.”
Yue Yuluo’s face was full of worries, “I heard that Emperor Dongyue didn’t fall, but went through reincarnation and transmigration instead. Who knows when he might return…What if he gets angry when he finds out we have his treasures?”
“Don’t worry, don’t worry.”
Xu Yang didn’t mind at all, laughing, “If we really meet him, maybe Emperor Dongyue will give you even more treasures!”
Until now.
He still had doubts in his heart.
Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu once passed a message through Lord Cui, saying that Xu Yang was indeed his son and had nothing to do with Emperor Dongyue. Xu Yang’s ability to use the power of faith in incense from Emperor Dongyue was also achieved by his secret intervention!
However, Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu never explained why Xu Yang looked so similar to Emperor Dongyue by eighty or ninety percent.
According to Xu Yang’s guess…
There might be some dog blood ethical drama between them.
It’s just that Emperor Beiyin of Fengdu had to conceal it due to his reputation.
In that case, Emperor Dongyue would be Xu Yang’s…father and Yue Yuluo’s father-in-law. Would he still kill his own son then?
The treasure was now in his hands.
Xu Yang immediately invited the thirty-eight newly-promoted heavenly immortals and Yue Yuluo back to his mansion in Fengdu City.
As soon as the thirty-eight newly-promoted heavenly immortals entered the mansion, they each went to a corner of the residence to close themselves, consolidate their cultivation and refine their newly chosen treasure immortal artifacts.
Xu Yang took Yue Yuluo into the room and said, “Madam, there’s no time to lose, let’s refine the Wu Earth Pearl and the Earth Emperor’s Book.”
“Okay!”
Yue Yuluo sat down cross-legged and took out the Wu Earth Pearl. She cut her finger and dripped a drop of “immortal blood” from it.
The blood instantly penetrated the Wu Earth Pearl, followed by a humming sound. A large amount of earth elemental power burst out from within the Wu Earth Pearl, enveloping Yue Yuluo.
Suddenly.
The earthy yellow mist turned into an earthy yellow “cocoon” around Yue Yuluo.
“Refining post-celestial spiritual treasure creates such a scene?”
Xu Yang was amazed.
He took out the “Earth Emperor’s Book” and thought, “My Earth Emperor’s Book is an Innate Spirit Treasure. If I refine it…won’t that make an even bigger scene?”
He cut his finger.
Dripped blood.
Hum!
The Earth Emperor’s Book absorbed the drop of immortal blood and instantly burrowed into his glabella.
In his mind, usage methods and effects of the “Earth Emperor’s Book” appeared one by one. Xu Yang opened his mouth and muttered, “Holy cow… is it over already?”
