Chapter 117: Turning Sides
Gao Chengchuan rubbed his eyes, and raised his head solemnly at the moment when his vision and hearing were cut off.
Wanluo Hall is heavily guarded, and the other forbidden troops stationed in the capital except for this place are probably already dead under the hands of ghosts, right?
Price...... Wouldn't it be a bit too high?
The temple was still calm, except for the overly dark sky, everything seemed to be still under control, but half a day had passed since the prince went up, why hadn't His Majesty given any orders yet?
Gao Chengchuan was irritable and couldn't stop pacing back and forth, thinking about all kinds of possibilities in his heart, could it be that the crown prince had compromised? Was he persuaded by His Majesty to abandon this coup d'Γ©tat? Or was His Majesty persuaded by him?
No, it can't be.
Gao Chengchuan blushed, with the character of this father and son, it is impossible for them to compromise with each other now, and this suffocating silence at the moment will definitely bring a more violent storm and will involve the entire imperial capital in a bloody storm!
The next moment, his guess quickly came trueβa burst of fierce golden light erupted from the top of the temple, shining on the entire imperial capital like a holy light, and before everyone could recover from their surprise, all the light sank into darkness in a blink of an eye, and the whole world suddenly fell into a dead silence.
Gao Chengchuan nervously clenched the Yandi Sword in his hand, and the originally red long sword was also submerged in such darkness at the moment, unable to reveal a little brightness at all.
Immediately after, incredible stars appeared in the dark night, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hand, feeling that those bright stars seemed to be within reach.
The Emperor of Heavenly Power stood at the top of the temple, holding a long sword diffused with golden light in his hand, it was this sword that split the sky of the imperial city, and forced the Earth Binding Spirit that sneaked up behind him to force it back, but this bright color only lasted for a few seconds, and the divine power from the Night King instantly engulfed the golden light at a faster speed.
The Earth Binding Spirit was injured and retreated, turning into a vague figure, and the original ten spirits were killed by the awakened ancient species when they were in the dungeon, and His Majesty's sword directly killed three!
It didn't even see where the other party drew the sword from, and what kind of action it used to instantly injure it, and the monster gasped, not daring to act rashly, and sure enough, it ...... This is the man who can stand on the top of the flying wall and sit on the bloodline of the two gods!
The eyes were brighter than they usually were, like the sun that could not look directly.
The appearance of the Earth Binding Spirit is constantly changing, one will be an adult beautiful woman, and the other will become an innocent and lovely child, the Emperor of Heavenly Power looked at the monster in front of him thoughtfully, that is because it can't transform again after being hit hard, and the body it used is flickering in the state of the spirit body.
"When did Your Majesty start defending me?" Shocked and puzzled, the Earth Bound Spirit spoke, and a variety of voices burst out as he spoke.
"It's not been a long time since you came back like this. Emperor Tianquan raised his eyes and let out a cold sneer, with disdain and contempt for the monster, "I remember that you were the holy daughter of the Yangchuan Sun Temple, and the holy woman who served the sun and moon gods, it should have been more than forty years ago, that year I had a fierce conflict with my eldest brother, and I was also secretly planning to kill my brother and father to seize the power of Feiyuan, and the internal struggle of the imperial power led to turmoil in the four realms, I am tired of solving these contradictions, you almost appeared at that time, the first time I saw you, you were even a very beautiful girl." ......β
Emperor Tianquan recalled its appearance back then, wearing a golden feather robe, and her face was as beautiful as the rising sun, giving him an illusion that the woman in front of him seemed to be really a person who served the "Sun God".
Then not long after, the lord of Yangchuan reported that there was a strange corpse control case in the city, which caused a large number of innocent people to die, and the murderer was the then saint An Yu, the lord of the capital adhered to the ancient precept, and could only expel the first one, if you still want to kill, you must ask your father to give an order in person. Emperor Tianquan sighed, unconsciously turned the sword in his hand, the sword was condensed by golden light, and it seemed to have no substance like the Three Holy Swords, and said, "At that time, it was the critical period for me to seize power, you have the ability of heavenly calculations, and you can help me avoid the prying eyes of the Sun God, and I will keep you out of selfishness." β
"Huh. Earthbound Spirit laughed, with a bit of sarcasm, "Your Majesty was so ambitious at that time that even the monsters couldn't help but want to help you. β
"But I didn't perceive any monster in you. Emperor Tianquan's eyes were stern, but a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It wasn't until you took the initiative to show up that I found out that the Anyu Palace Master I trusted was just a monster Earth Binding Spirit." β
Forty years ago, the old palace master of the Star Sacrifice Palace was also in the twilight, and the father was anxious to find a suitable candidate to take over the position of the palace master, and An Yu happened to appear, although she was burdened with the lives of thousands of people in Yangchuan, but for the imperial capital, a woman who sat on the divine power of "Heavenly Calculation" could be forgiven for any sins! It was he who personally advised his father and the emperor to single-handedly promoted An Yu to the position of the palace master of the Star Sacrifice Palace!
And his selfishness is precisely to deal with the Eye of the Sun God in the Star Sacrifice Palace, in order to prevent his father from discovering his coup attempt, he needs someone who can directly control the Star Sacrifice Palace, and An Yu is the best candidate at that time.
Four years later, he killed his brother and father overnight, and he sat on the throne of the Feiyuan Continent, and from beginning to end, the Star Sacrifice Palace, which was in danger of fortune and misfortune for the royal family, did not notice anything abnormal, and it was precisely because of the palace lord An Yu that he was originally his person.
"Anyway, I'm also a hero who helped you achieve hegemony, right?" The Earth Binding Spirit breathed a sigh of relief, and the remaining six spirit bodies gathered together and transformed into the appearance of the girl back then, Emperor Tianquan only felt that the person in front of him was extremely dazzling, and even made him have a nameless anger, "I have the blood of the royal family, it is impossible for me to be unaware of the Earth Binding Spirit, one of the three demons, for forty years, let the master behind you show up in person." β
"My master......" The Earth Bound Spirit chuckled lowly, the atmosphere was a little weird, "My old lord is the one you once worked with, Lord Night of the Heavenly Realm, and my new lord ......"
The Earth Binding Spirit suddenly raised his hand to the stars in the sky that seemed to be within reach, and the Heavenly Power Emperor felt a chill all over his body, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a beam of colorful colors falling on the top of the temple, and the mirrored ground shattered with a "snap", and the crack extended to his feet.
"The hosts. The Earth Bound Spirit breathed a sigh of relief, and the man raised his hand and walked directly through the monster, using his own divine power to help its remaining spirit body recover, and then waved his hand casually, "You stand down." β
"Do you want to heal the monster?" Emperor Tianquan's eyes were bright, although he sensed the surging divine power on the other party's body, he couldn't help but feel disdain when he saw the movements of his hands.
The surrounding stars shone brightly, and Pengshan turned around, facing the human emperor for the first time.
"Yes, so what?" he asked rhetorically, not paying any attention, "Isn't Your Majesty relying on the help of the monsters to achieve what you are today......?" It's also your own hand. β
"Did you hide the aura of the monster?" Emperor Tianquan was also fearless, and the sword in his hand was clenched again, "No wonder the Earth Binding Spirit can hide people's eyes and ears for so long, if you get the help of the Heavenly Realm, everything will become reasonable, but I don't understand, what is the purpose of King Chen?"
"Oh......? Can you recognize me?" Peng Shan was a little surprised, although thousands of Liudao were full of legends of the Heavenly Realm, but being able to recognize his identity at just one glance was still much beyond expectations.
"The power of the stars is for the king of Chen. This is one of the few things written in the royal history books about the twelve gods. β
"History book ......" Peng Shan silently repeated these two words, but his lips pursed into a straight line little by little, and his smile became sharp, "If the two of them stayed, right? Hmph, it's not surprising, they have always been like this, self-proclaimed sun and moon, vainly trying to live with heaven and earth, and even for that absurd cultivation method, they took the initiative to give up the so-called mortal body, and now I don't feel the existence of the two of them at all, are they really part of heaven and earth, or have they died a long time ago?"
Emperor Tianquan's expression changed slightly, how could this Chen King from the Heavenly Realm have such an obvious change in mood at this moment?
There are actually very few records of the heavenly realm in the royal history books, and even the twelve gods are not all recorded, and the most mentioned except for their ancestor Sun and Moon Twin Gods, it is the Chen King who sits on the power of the stars. Fall in love with the literary network
There are only a few sentences of record of him in the book, but if it is only taken literally, it should be an existence that has an excellent relationship with the two gods of the sun and the moon, or even walks side by side.
However, at this moment, King Chen showed an extreme disgust, and even brought anger that he couldn't understand.
"Hmph, let me tell you the truth. Pengshan stared at the sky, as if he could see the distant Heavenly Realm at a glance, and smiled bitterly, "The last obstacle to the Heavenly Realm is an ancient black dragon, until it was beheaded by the God of War, I and my initiates really became the masters there, the upper Polar Day Temple, the lower Eternal Night Temple, and the center is the Sea of Dusk where the stars gather, at the beginning, your ancestor Sun and Moon Twin Gods and my power jointly created its prototype, and then other initiates joined hands to keep time forever and become the realm of true gods." β
Emperor Tianquan was silent, and the golden light in his eyes dimmed a little, it was indeed the world that Feng Jiuqing had described to him, even today, when he heard a similar description from King Chen's mouth again, he still couldn't imagine what kind of place it was.
Later, they began to decide to give up their bodies for the sake of absurd spiritual beliefs. King Chen suddenly changed the topic, and without waiting for Emperor Tianquan to understand, he continued, "Don't you understand what I'm talking about at all? Then I said it more clearly, they decided to give up their lives at the cost of death, in exchange for the opportunity to live with heaven and earth, but, despite this, the belief is really implemented and encountered all kinds of difficulties, every time, they make themselves half-dead, I saved them many times, threw them to Shisu, but even so, still can't stop it." β
Peng Shan smiled coldly, that kind of memory made him a little uncomfortable, and pressed his forehead hard: "It's just like this, and the first person to break down is actually me." β
The last time the argument was in the Sea of Dusk, when the initiates who had entered the demonic barrier angrily accused himβ"Why does the power of the stars compete with the sun and the moon?"
It turned out that in the eyes of the two of them, they stopped, retained, and saved again and again just beyond their own strength, because how could the power of the stars compete with the sun and the moon?
He went out to the heavenly realm angrily, and he didn't know how long it had been, and when he came back again, everything was different, there was no news of Di Zhong, Xi Hui had become an unconscious remnant, and his two former best friends no longer had any breath.
Since then, perhaps still unresolved, he has been secretly watching the descendants of the two gods left on Zhen Island, they are the kings of that Liudao, admired by thousands of people, and they are undoubtedly excellent and qualified as rulers.
"Until you appearedβ" Peng Shan suddenly raised his eyes to look at Emperor Tianquan and let out a long sigh, "I feel a similar demonic obstacle on your body, exactly the same as your ancestors back then, although the path of initiates is different, but I have never recognized their ideas, because we have never been true gods, but they always want to become true gods, heh...... Do you know, to this day, I have not felt their breath anywhere again, most of them really killed themselves, and if they are so anxious to send them to death, why should they leave their descendants? β
"So...... Feitian's dream is just a scam?" Emperor Tianquan finally realized this, and his tone trembled unconsciously.
"Of course it's just a scam, didn't I give the Earth Binding Spirit Heavenly Calculation Ability just to make you believe in the dream of flying to the sky?" Peng Shan shook his head and laughed, as if years of resentment were vented in an instant, "In order to make this deception more realistic, I also personally designed the Ten Halls of Hell Array, teaching you how to use the power of resentful spirits to divide the Feiyuan Continent, so that you can wantonly slaughter innocents in this land, as if ...... The first blood array. β
"It's just that I slightly underestimated the power of the ancient species. Peng Shan sighed and pondered for a moment, "The ancient species is extremely rare, even I haven't really encountered it, when the Ten Halls Hades Array was first activated, I thought that Tianyu City should be able to break away from the Feiyuan Continent, and then crashed due to lack of strength in the process of its ascent, but I miscalculated, the ancient species forcibly pulled the broken land, and even forced the Ten Halls Hades Array to stop." β
"From that time on, you knew that the separation of the four realms was impossible, but it was still ...... Induce me to continue looking for a way. Emperor Tianquan's tone began to become heavy, such a huge and deep conspiracy made his cheeks even more gloomy, "You revealed some news to me, telling me that there is a powerful force in the depths of the foundation, as long as you can find it and use it, you can lift Tianyu City back to your homeland, this force is the ancient species, and with the power of human beings, it is impossible to get close to him at all." β
"Telling you this is just to keep you from dying, so that you will continue to use the Ten Palaces of Hades to kill. Pengshan looked at him meaningfully, with a satisfied smile, "Sure enough, as I expected, the demonic barrier on your body is exactly the same as theirs." β
"Demon barrier...... Emperor Tianquan was stunned, his eyes brightened in an instant, and he remembered his wife - no wonder she has been swearing to the death, even at the cost of her life!
"The thermometer must be able to detect something. Peng Shan saw through his thoughts at a glance, and there was a look of compassion in his eyes, "But she can't say it, because she herself has obtained the power of the Heavenly Realm to become a forbidden land god, and anything that is not conducive to the Heavenly Realm will not be able to speak, this is an irreversible fate, once ...... My fellow initiates and I care very much about the Heavenly Realm, which is why we have these restraints on outsiders, but that's just for the past. β
Emperor Huo Ran raised his head, and there was sadness in his eyes.
It turned out that since the moment he killed his brother and father, usurped the throne and seized power, the scam had been turned by his own hands, for an ethereal flying dream, he slaughtered innocents, lost his beloved wife for this, and also made the most important son turn against himself.
"Huh...... Is the purpose of King Chen's to make the two gods disappear completely? and the bloodline of the descendants will also be cut off, and the real destruction will be realized. Emperor Tianquan flipped the golden sword in his hand, but his tone was surprisingly calm, "Flying Heaven is no longer important to me for a long time, and now I only want to know one thing." β
"As a parting gift, I answer any questions you may have. King Chen raised his finger slightly, the power of the stars surging under his palm, but he controlled the power of near destruction, and waited expectantly for the question of the emperor opposite.
Emperor Tianquan's expression was terrifying, and he blurted out: "The mirror of the mirror moon, can it last forever?"
This question, King Chen, who asked the question, paused in shock, and didn't keep up with the other party's jumping thinking for a while-the catastrophe is coming, and the question asked by this person is just a small mirror of the moon?
However, King Chen was indeed seriously thinking about the other party's question, and the movements in his hands also paused, and after a long time, he replied solemnly: "There is no eternity in this world, and even the heavenly realm still circulates the prophecy of 'Emperor Star Falling', the mirror of the moon is only an illusion after all, Your Majesty should wake up as soon as possible." β
Emperor Tianquan didn't speak, he lowered his head silently, and then suddenly burst out laughing.
"The Heavenly Realmβit's not credible. He raised his head high, but showed a relieved expression, "Very good, after so many years, I finally waited for the day when the truth was revealed, what if I died alone, I was ruthless, killing countless people, whether it was a father, a brother, or a wife, a son, but anyone who stood in my way, I could eradicate it without mercy, hahaha, the dream of flying is broken, and the mirror of the moon should also be broken, right? β
With his sharp reprimand, the ghost hands that had been wandering in the sky also seemed to be stimulated by something, and they pinched their weathered five fingers into a weird clicking sound, and they fought back against King Chen!
Peng Shan didn't move, just raised his hand and tore the ghost hand to pieces, and then looked at Emperor Tianquan, the golden lightsaber in his hand flashed with some kind of ominous light, breaking through the night and illuminating the sky above the imperial city.
"You...... What did you do?" Instantly perceiving the abnormality in the depths of the Ten Halls Hades Array, King Lianchen finally changed his face secretly.
Emperor Tianquan showed a tired expression, as if he had suddenly grown old, and sighed: "Your Excellency should know that the divine power of the Heavenly Realm is different, but anyone who has a little magic cultivation can detect it, it is not something that should exist in the world, since I found out that the Lord of the Star Sacrifice Palace was transformed by a monster, I moved a little bit in the big array you left back then, just to prevent you from keeping your promises......"
Before the words fell, the corners of his mouth were shocked and coughed up blood, his body was trembling slightly, Emperor Tianquan swallowed back the blood foam, and said with a smile: "Of course, I didn't think I could kill you, but I had to give it to him...... Give Mingxi a way to live. β
Golden sword light poured out from his body, as if it was about to cut this person into pieces! Guided by the blood of the emperor, ten statues of the gods of Hades suddenly appeared in the sky above Heavenly Domain City!
"You ......" Peng Shan let out a low cry of disbelief, and in an instant, the Ten Halls of Hell Formation that he had created with his own hands actually began to attack him accurately!
The divine power of the Heavenly Realm is unique, and it is precisely when he sees this that he will bite the Heavenly Realm in such an extreme way!
"Thermometer...... I'm sorry, but I couldn't save you. Emperor Tianquan pinched the small jade-faced mirror in his hand, and the pain spread little by little from the bottom of his heart, the unbearable but unforgettable years made him unable to breathe, and then he trembled and walked to the edge of the temple, the barrier of the wind disappeared, he stretched out his hand, stared at his own shadow reflected in the mirror, smiled bitterly, and lightly eased his hand.
On the holy platform below, Prince Mingxi had a calm face, and the white soul beside him took the fallen divine mirror and carefully placed it in his palm.
