C3584 Congratulations to the New King!
C3584 Congratulations to the New King!
The Devouring Ancient Clan had not been friendly to Dongfang Ling before, so now that they wanted him to return to the Devouring Ancient Race, they naturally had to show sufficient sincerity. Only then would he be able to let go of his grudges and truly become a member of the Devouring Ancient Clan.
Of course, he also hoped that Dongfang Ling would be able to integrate into the Devouring Ancient Clan. Only in the Devouring Ancient Clan would his potential be completely unearthed. With the help of the Phagocytic Crystal, his future was limitless.
"The Devouring King Body has already returned to the Devouring Ancient Clan, so should the Reincarnation King Body return as well?" At this moment, a voice sounded out in the void.
The person who spoke was a great elder of the Reincarnation Ancient Clan. After he finished speaking, he looked at the crowd of the Tianxuan Army, as if what he had just said was said by someone among them.
Many people couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. The Reincarnation King Body?
"There was someone who used the Reincarnation Crystal during the previous battle. Could it be that person is the Reincarnation King Body?" Someone boldly guessed, and the expressions of the surrounding crowd immediately changed. This possibility was extremely high.
"Tai Gan, Swallow Sun has already conferred the Devouring King Body as the Holy Son. Are you going to confer a Holy Son as well?" The Demon God Palace Lord said with a smile. Tai Gan was the title of the Reincarnation Ancient Clan's ancestor.
Tai Qiantian ignored the Demon God Palace Lord and looked at Duan Chengtian, who was standing among the Tianxuan crowd, with an incomparably calm expression. No one knew what he was thinking.
He had seen Duan Chengtian's performance in the divine mountain. He was indeed a reincarnation king body. Besides the Reincarnation Crystal, he also had the Six Paths of Reincarnation Chains, which were the two great treasures of the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign. It could be seen that the Reincarnation Heavenly Sovereign had placed extremely high hopes on him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have given these two treasures to him.
Such an extraordinary person should indeed return to the Reincarnation Ancient Clan.
"What's your name?" Tai Qiantian looked at Duan Chengtian and asked.
"Duan Chengtian." Duan Chengtian bowed and replied. Although he did not have a sense of belonging to the Reincarnation Ancient Clan, he was facing the ancestor of the Reincarnation Ancient Clan, a peak existence in the Divine World. Naturally, he was extremely respectful.
"Back then, the ancient clan split up and some of them migrated to the lower realm to preserve their bloodline. After that, for various reasons, they did not return to the ancient clan. I can't absolve myself from the blame, and I owe many people, including you." Tai Qiantian spoke slowly, his tone carrying a sense of guilt.
Hearing this, many people trembled in their hearts. With Tai Qiantian's status, even if he had done something wrong, no one would dare to criticize him. However, he had publicly admitted that it was his fault. Such magnanimity was truly admirable.
If it was anyone else, they probably wouldn't be able to put down their status.
Duan Chengtian was also shocked in his heart. The dignified ancestor had spoken to him in such a manner. There was no longer any Resentment in his heart, only heartfelt respect.
“The fault has already been made. There’s no point in saying anything now. We have to look forward to the future,” said Taixuan Tianzun. “As long as you are willing to return to the Ancient Race, you will be able to enjoy all the cultivation resources. After you step into the Heavenly Venerate realm, I will personally guide you in your cultivation.”
Countless people were stirred up by Taixuan Tianzun’s words. They looked at Duan Chengtian with envy. As long as he returned to the Ancient Race, he would be able to obtain the guidance of a peerless powerhouse. It was truly enviable.
At this moment, the geniuses of the Ancient Samsara Race found it hard to accept. They felt indignant for Duan Wujue.
Duan Wujue had always been the most eye-catching person in the Ancient Samsara Race. He had never lost to anyone of the same generation. He had also won the battle against the Heavenly Venerate of Kṣitigarbha. In comparison, Duan Chengtian had not performed outstandingly. This was because he had the Samsara King Body, and his status surpassed Duan Wujue’s. This was too unfair.
If the Samsara Crystal was in Duan Wujue’s hands, he would definitely be stronger than Duan Chengtian.
However, Duan Wujue just stood there quietly. He did not fight for anything. His words were too weak, and his actions proved everything. If his performance was outstanding enough, he believed that the Patriarch would value him as well.
“You have not been conferred the title of Son. Do you know why?” asked Taixuan Tianzun to Duan Chengtian through voice transmission.
Duan Chengtian’s expression froze. Then, he vaguely understood something. He replied, “The Patriarch wants me to use my strength to win the title of Son.”
"That's right." Taixuan Heavenly Sovereign nodded his head in satisfaction and said, "You have seen the innate talent of Wuzhen, and he is also very outstanding. If you were to be directly conferred the title of Son of God, it would definitely cause many people to be hostile towards you, and it would also have a bad effect on your cultivation in the Ancient Race. Only by using your strength to win the title of Son of God will you be able to truly obtain their recognition."
"I understand. I will definitely not let down the expectations of the ancestor." Duan Wuzhen's tone was incomparably firm. As long as he was given time, he would be able to let everyone acknowledge his strength.
"I will wait for that day." Taixuan Heavenly Sovereign's eyes were filled with anticipation. He believed that Heavenly Sovereign Samsara would not misjudge him. This child would definitely stand at the peak of the Divine World in the future, and he would even surpass him.
Seeing all of this, Qin Xuan revealed a gratified smile. Dongfang Ling and Duan Wuzhen returned to their respective families, and they were valued. In the future, they would not have to worry about anything, and they could devote all of their energy to cultivation.
At this moment, Fen Old Master's gaze swept towards a certain direction. It was where Xiao Nanli and the group of four Region Masters were.
"Are you still not prepared to leave?" Fen Old Master's tone was extremely cold. The matters of the Divine World had already been dealt with, so they naturally had to expel the people of Ksitigarbha.
"Leave? We are not prepared to leave." The Eastern River Region Master replied with a cold smile. Although he was a little afraid of Fen Old Master, he was not afraid. If he was scared off by a single sentence, wouldn't that make the people of the Divine World laugh at him?
A sharp light suddenly shot out from Fen Old Master's eyes. He took a step forward, and a terrifying pressure swept out, directly enveloping the space where the Ksitigarbha's group was.
"Ah …" Many people immediately let out miserable screams, their faces as pale as paper, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably, as if they were about to explode.
Boom!
The four Region Lords released a powerful aura at the same time, directly dispersing Fen Old Master's pressure. After that, they soared into the air and looked at Fen Old Master with extremely sharp eyes. The Dongchuan Region Lord said coldly, "You'd better think about it carefully. What will the Divine Realm welcome after the war?"
"You think you can threaten me?" Fen Old Master's eyes did not have the slightest emotion, as if he was a god of death. Nothing could affect his state of mind.
The Dongchuan Region Lord's heart trembled slightly when he saw Fen Old Master's eyes. Suddenly, he remembered Fen Old Master's previous title, the God of Slaughter.
The hunchbacked and weak old man in front of him was a true Deicide. In the ancient war, he had slaughtered many experts from the evil races and Ksitigarbha. Other than a few people, he didn't care about the lives of others. Naturally, he was not afraid of the war.
Qin Xuan looked at the old man in front of him. His hunched body was like a lofty mountain, as if as long as he was there, there was no need to worry.
When he had just started cultivating, Fen Old Master had always been protecting him. Today, Fen Old Master was still standing in front of him like before, blocking the wind and rain for him, allowing him to feel a sense of security that he had not felt for a long time.
However, now that he had cultivated to the Celestial Realm and became the king of the Divine World, he could no longer let Fen Old Master bear the burden alone.
Qin Xuan walked forward and came to Fen Old Master's side. Fen Old Master turned his head to look at him, and Qin Xuan said with a smile, "This time, I will face you together."
Fen Old Master's eyes narrowed, and then he nodded. "Alright."
Seeing Qin Xuan walk out, many people in the Divine World suddenly froze, and then they felt admiration in their hearts. Although he was only at the Celestial Realm of One Tribulation, he dared to face the top experts of the Earth Matrix. He indeed had the demeanor of a Divine King.
Qin Xuan looked at Xiao Nanli and said, "In the battle at the Seven Swords Mountain, you had already entered the Celestial Realm, and I was a Heavenly Sovereign. You did not use your full strength in that battle. Today, we are at the same cultivation level, so let's fight again."
"Plop!" Countless people felt their hearts beating wildly, as if they had heard an extremely explosive piece of news.
Qin Xuan and Xiao Nanli had actually met. Not only that, the two of them had even exchanged blows. However, Xiao Nanli did not use his full strength in that battle. If he had used his full strength, Qin Xuan should not have been his opponent.
Now that the two of them were at the same cultivation level, they would fight again. No one knew who would win.
Thinking of this, many people were filled with strong curiosity. One was the successor of the old Divine King, and the other was the successor of the Earth Matrix King. The two of them were on par with each other, and their talents were also unparalleled in the world. Only by fighting with them would one know who was stronger.
Xiao Nanli's eyes met Qin Xuan's. Just as he was about to respond, an incomparably dignified voice came from the sky, causing countless people to tremble in their hearts.
"I heard that a new king has been born in the Divine World. We have come to congratulate you!"
When the voice fell, a terrifying crack appeared in the sky. An extremely dazzling dark divine light shot out, piercing through the heavens and the earth like a spatial path. Terrifying ripples spread out from it.
After that, many figures walked out from the dark divine light. They were all Celestial Venerables. However, the four figures standing at the very front did not emit any aura at all. They looked like ordinary people.
Many experts of the Divine World's expression changed. They looked at the four figures with great vigilance. Clearly, they knew who they were.
The four reverends of Kṣitigarbha.
The six reverends were the most powerful figures under the command of Kṣitigarbha. Their statuses were above that of the Region Lords. Now that the four reverends had come, it was obvious that they did not come with good intentions. It was very likely that they wanted to harm the Divine King.
The eyes of the Eastern River Region Lord and the others flashed with a strange light. Although there were four reverends, there were not many Celestial Venerables. It was not easy to get rid of Qin Xuan with just these people.
The Kṣitigarbha Palace had underestimated their enemy. Or did they have other thoughts?
"Greetings, Seniors." Xiao Nanli looked at the four reverends and cupped his hands. His expression was extremely respectful. These four reverends were half his Master. He had always respected them and treated them as seniors.
"It has been a long time since we last met. Young Master's cultivation has improved even more." One of the black robes said with a smile. This middle-aged man was the Giant Armor Worshipper, and Chu Zong was his successor.
Xiao Nanli shook his head. He knew exactly how much he had improved, but he had not reached his expectations. He had been thinking about many things in his heart all these years, and he had not truly focused on cultivating. Otherwise, he would have long stepped into the Second Calamity Realm.
"Why have you come to the Divine World this time?" Xiao Nanli asked directly. He naturally did not believe that they had come to congratulate the birth of the new king of the Divine World. With their status, they would not easily move out.
"Just now, I already said that I came to congratulate the birth of the new king." Another old man looked at Qin Xuan and said.
This old man's appearance was very ordinary, and he was no different from an ordinary old man. However, if one were to carefully observe his eyes, one would discover that there was an endless Sword Intent surging in his eyes, as if there was a world of the sword.
Qin Xuan also looked at the old man, and just by looking at him, he could feel a threatening Sword Intent invading his eyes. He immediately realized that the other party was an extremely terrifying sword cultivator. His eyes hid the Great Dao, and he did not need to release an attack. A single glance could kill someone without a trace.
"Jia Ye, you haven't died yet." Fen Old Master spat out a cold voice. He looked at the old man with a cold gaze, as if he had a deep hatred for him.
"If you haven't died, how could I die?" The Jia Ye Worshipper said with a faint smile. His tone was calm, as if he was chatting with a friend, but his words were hidden with sharpness.
"Why didn't that guy come?" Fen Old Master asked coldly.
"The four of us are enough. If you want him, you can go down and see him." Reverend Jia Ye replied.
Hearing the conversation between Fen Old Master and Reverend Jia Ye, many people had many thoughts in their minds. The old guy that Fen Old Master was talking about should be the Reverend Ziwei, the leader of the six reverends. This time, he didn't come.
"This time, I didn't come to declare war. I only came to do two things." Reverend Jia Ye looked at Fen Old Master and said, "The first thing is to congratulate the new king of the Divine Realm."
Many people in the Divine Realm revealed doubtful expressions. Were they really just here to congratulate him?
Qin Xuan was also suspicious. If they were just here to congratulate him, why would there be so many people? Moreover, Kṣitigarbha wanted to rule the Divine Realm. How could he come to congratulate the new king?
There must be some other purpose.
"After congratulating him, it's time to do the second thing." Reverend Jia Ye looked at Qin Xuan and said, "Some people in Kṣitigarbha want to experience the strength of the new king. The new king has just ascended the throne, so he shouldn't refuse, right?"
As Reverend Jia Ye's voice fell, countless people in the Divine Realm trembled in their hearts. Their eyes all revealed a cold light. They were indeed here for the Divine King.
Qin Xuan's eyes revealed a profound meaning. With the reason of experiencing the strength of the new king, if he was not strong enough, he could kill him openly. Since he had just taken over the position of the Divine King, there was no reason for him to refuse the challenge of Kṣitigarbha. He could only accept the challenge.
This plan could be said to be an open scheme.
Just as Qin Xuan was about to say something, Fen Old Master said with a cold smile, "What a joke. You want to challenge the king of the Divine Realm with just a few ants? You think too highly of yourself."
Hearing Fen Old Master's words, Qin Xuan's gaze immediately focused. He was glad that he did not agree, or else he would have lowered his status and made the people of the Earth Matrix Heaven look down on him.
"That's right. The Divine King is the master of the Divine Realm. How can anyone challenge him? Prove your strength first before challenging him." The Demon God Palace Lord also said coldly. He would never allow anyone to humiliate Qin Xuan!
