Chapter 450 The Shock of the Undying Lord! Speculations on the Unknown Universe
The Undying Lord stared blankly at Chu Yang, his mind filled with many questions, the most crucial of which was...
Why did Chu Yang know so many secrets about the evil race?
And... how did he arrive at such a precise judgment?
Six years?
Is this a conservative estimate or an arbitrary guess?
If it were anyone else, even the Sword Saint in Green Robes, who said these words, the Undying Lord would certainly be full of doubt, or even refuse without hesitation.
But this person happens to be Chu Yang!
It is this young man who has created miraculous feats time and time again!
Moreover, the Undying Lord knew very well that, judging from Chu Yang's growth rate and talent, if given six years, he might actually be able to leave his full name on the Sky Ranking!
At that time, even if the Heavenly Evil God recovers to his peak of nine eyes, he will still have the power to fight!
"This matter is of great importance. Although what you said is reasonable and well-founded, and I admit I've been convinced, but..."
The Undying Lord took a deep breath and said, "I alone cannot represent the entire Great Thousand Worlds!"
"You need to provide compelling evidence to get all the forces in the vast world to cooperate, or even obey your commands!"
Chu Yang smiled; he had anticipated the Lord of Immortality's answer.
He naturally had no evidence, but he was able to use some special means to indirectly prove what he said, at least to make everyone believe these things.
The Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array, as the number one spirit array in the Great Thousand Realm, is far superior to other spirit arrays. However, for Chu Yang, figuring out its principles and mastering this great array is not a difficult task.
The problem is that when the Immortal Emperor sacrificed himself and merged into the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array, it introduced many variables into the array, making it difficult to fully improve and upgrade it.
Pangu has combined the formations of the Xianxia world to construct a plan to upgrade the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Formation.
However, to put it into practice, a large amount of resources and spiritual energy are needed.
It would take Chu Yang and his forces at least a century to prepare everything.
This process took him far too long!
Of course, the overall plan was actually just Chu Yang trying to take a shortcut to greatly shorten the time for the decisive battle with the evil race.
Otherwise, it would take at least a decade or more for the evil race to lose its composure and become disorganized.
Even if we assume the worst, the evil race is unwilling to take the initiative, they will wait for the next Great Thousand Alliance, which is hundreds of years from now.
Chu Yang didn't have that much time to wait, because the exploration of the unknown universe in the Super God World had already made some progress.
The unknown universe may hold immense secrets and terrifying horrors. If he were to provoke those prehistoric beings, Chu Yang's current strength might not be enough to handle it.
Having learned from the mistakes of the martial arts world, Chu Yang was not so sure that every world was as simple as it seemed.
As he learned more about the world of Super God, he also began to realize that something was amiss.
The power of the void far surpasses that of the gods, and that place is merely a recycling station for the transcendent heavenly path.
Therefore, he must deal with the evil race as soon as possible and make the Sacred Heart Demon Refining Technique a complete success!
Only when the Sacred Heart Demon Refining Technique is nearing perfection can he attempt to achieve a perfect unity of man and law.
Of course, there was another reason why Chu Yang was so eager to engage in a decisive battle with the evil race...
That's the Heavenly Evil God!
He was eager to see how many demonic runes the Nine-Eyed Evil God's primordial demonic energy could add to his Origin Martial Body.
If the evil race is dealt with first, without a large number of evil races as nourishment, and with the powerful beings of the Great Thousand Realms gradually recovering lost territories, the sacred embryo that the Heavenly Evil God has spread out will inevitably be destroyed.
In that case, it would be almost impossible for the Heavenly Evil God to return to his peak.
Therefore, Chu Yang's actions were both to annihilate the evil race ahead of schedule and to "help" the evil race by allowing the Heavenly Evil God to break free of his seal and return to his peak condition ahead of time.
Of course, all of this is based on the premise that he is confident he can defeat and kill the Heavenly Evil God in his prime.
Otherwise, this series of plans will only be playing with fire and getting burned.
Upon hearing that Chu Yang had a way to prove it, the Undying Lord's eyes lit up slightly, and he completely believed what Chu Yang had just said.
Chu Yang slowly raised both hands, a jade bottle appeared in his left hand, and a soul converter shaped like a Klein bottle was held in his right hand.
The uniquely shaped soul converter immediately caught the attention of the Undying Lord. He examined it carefully for a long time, but couldn't figure it out or even sense any spiritual energy fluctuations.
The Soul Converter is a purely technological product, but it also incorporates some characteristics of the Klein Bottle, an item from a higher-dimensional world. Naturally, its immortality is not apparent.
Chu Yang flicked the stopper off the jade bottle in his left hand, and then a soul entity surged out from the jade screen.
The moment it broke free from the jade bottle's seal, the soul tried to escape, but Chu Yang simply released his aura, and the soul froze in mid-air, the terrifying pressure rendering it unable to move.
"This is the soul of a supreme-realm evil being..."
As Chu Yang spoke, he raised his hand and pulled the soul body over, then roughly stuffed it into the soul converter.
The soul converter trembled slightly, and after a moment of flashing light, a transparent crystal the size of a sesame seed fell out from the other end.
After receiving the Soul Crystal, Chu Yang put away the Soul Converter and handed the Soul Crystal to the Undying Lord, saying, "Senior, absorb and refine it, and you will understand everything."
The Undying Lord accepted the Soul Crystal with some skepticism, completely unsuspecting. He closed his eyes slightly, and the Soul Crystal quietly melted, seeping into the skin of his palm.
After a long while, the Undying Lord suddenly opened his eyes. A glint of evil flashed in them before he quickly regained his composure and opened his mouth wide, saying:
"This...this...this is simply unbelievable!"
In that brief moment, he had the strange feeling that he had experienced the life of another person as someone else.
Although some memories are missing, it doesn't matter.
Most importantly, this is the memory of an evil race. If he hadn't been so resolute, he would probably have been affected by the memory, either undergoing a drastic personality change or turning into a demon.
That is why Chu Yang only chose a soul at the Supreme Realm, since the Undying Lord does not have a Soul Palace to rely on.
It is worth mentioning that there are two key factors that enabled Chu Yang to integrate the memories of powerful members of the evil race without any scruples.
Firstly, he is not alone!
Each memory received carries negative consequences that are shared by each version of oneself in different worlds.
Secondly, of course, is the Palace of Souls!
With the Soul Palace in place, Chu Yang's spiritual world and soul world are virtually indestructible. No matter what kind of powerful person's memories he absorbs, the negative impact will be minimized.
After being shared by him in various worlds, this influence becomes negligible.
Seeing that the Undying Lord had realized the profound mystery of the Soul Crystal, Chu Yang said softly:
"I successively merged and digested the memories of the Demon Emperor of the Ghostly Demon Clan, Ghostly Fox, and the Demon Emperor of the Underworld, and learned many things from their memories."
"I can only prove the truth of this claim, but I cannot make others absorb the memories of the Demon Emperor or even the Heavenly Demon Emperor like I have."
"I believe you have already discovered that absorbing memories has great side effects, but my physique is special and my soul is practically indestructible, so I don't need to worry about it."
The Undying Lord seemed to be deep in thought. He did not doubt Chu Yang's words. In fact, many powerful figures had speculated long ago whether Chu Yang had a special physique.
After all, this guy is too monstrous; it would be a bit unreasonable if he didn't have some special qualities.
After a long silence, the Undying Lord asked softly, "Could you give me a few more Soul Crystals?"
Chu Yang nodded, then took out more than a dozen soul bodies in one go and converted them one by one using the soul converter.
After obtaining numerous soul crystals, the Undying Lord took a deep breath and said, "I plan to personally visit the major powers and explain the situation to them."
"During this time, I will be troubling you to stay and oversee the Northern Wilderness Hills..."
As he spoke, a hint of excitement flickered in the Undying Lord's eyes.
How many years has it been since he last left the Northern Wilderness Hills?
I don't remember, but ever since his teacher fell, he has never stepped out of the Northern Wilderness Hills.
At that time, he had only just broken through to the Celestial Supreme level!
Only direct descendants of the Immortal Emperor can control the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array by means of the power of their bloodline, even without being proficient in spirit arrays.
To put it bluntly, before Chu Yang appeared, only the successive leaders of the Tomb Keeper lineage were the only people in the Great Thousand Realms who could control the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array.
Because the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array has surpassed the level of a Saint-grade spirit array, even a Grandmaster of a late-stage Saint-grade spirit array cannot fathom its mysteries.
However, before the Undying Lord grew up, there were several Saint-level experts from the Great Thousand Palace protecting him to prevent any accidents.
Now that Chu Yang has become the first genius spirit array master outside of the Tomb Keeper lineage to completely understand the principles of the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array, and even has the confidence to improve it, the Undying Lord naturally felt at ease entrusting the Northern Wilderness Hill to him.
After all, even in terms of strength, Chu Yang is now comparable to a giant, not inferior to him.
Of course, the Undying Lord was unaware that Chu Yang's supposedly formidable strength was actually partly a bluff.
If he were to truly clash with a giant-level powerhouse, Chu Yang could at most maneuver and contend with them, but he would find it difficult to confront them head-on, let alone win the battle.
Chu Yang looked at the somewhat childlike old man and nodded, saying, "Senior, rest assured, even if the Heavenly Evil God tries to break the seal, I will make him suffer greatly!"
The Undying Lord chuckled dryly, clasped his hands in thanks, and then walked out of the courtyard to begin arranging things after his departure.
In simple terms, it means making the tomb keeper lineage obey Chu Yang's orders in everything.
He knew, of course, that Chu Yang was capable of contacting the major powers himself, and might even do it better than him.
But having the opportunity to go out and travel is always a good thing for him.
Chu Yang was happy to see this happen. With the One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones technique, it was as if he had opened up a path for the Undying Lord to surpass the Saintly level.
However, for the Undying Lord, six years is still too short a time. Breaking through to the half-step Dominator level is no easy task.
After years of working in isolation, going out for a walk now is quite beneficial to his mindset and may accelerate his breakthrough.
Instructing the Green-Robed Sword Saint in swordsmanship and teaching the Undying Lord the One Qi Transformation into Three Pure Ones were actually part of Chu Yang's plan.
If these two giants could go further and inscribe their names on the Sky Ranking, it would certainly give the Great Thousand Realms more depth in the final battle.
After the Lord of Immortality left, Chu Yang did not sit idly in the courtyard like him, but went to the Rift Abyss and found Wuming.
Wuming existed in ancient times, so he naturally had some knowledge of many historical secrets.
"You want to find the bloodline of the Dragon and Phoenix?" Wuming was surprised after hearing Chu Yang's question.
Since their last meeting, he had gained a comprehensive understanding of Chu Yang through the Lord of Immortality.
Thus, we know that this is an extremely legendary, monstrous genius, even surpassing the Immortal Emperor.
His skills are unpredictable and he has expertise in many fields, including spirit arrays, which are unparalleled in history.
However, a person's energy is limited. He felt that Chu Yang should focus on improving his cultivation level instead of being distracted by studying the Dragon-Phoenix Bloodline.
Wuming said in a deep voice, "Even if you obtain the Dragon and Phoenix True Scripture and are able to fuse with the bloodline of the Dragon and Phoenix, it will only give you one more method, at most greatly enhancing your physical body."
"Your foundation is already solid enough; there's no need to continue focusing on this aspect..."
He phrased it rather tactfully, but his unspoken message was simply that Chu Yang should focus on improving his cultivation.
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, "The search for the Dragon-Phoenix bloodline is for my disciple, and also to improve the overall strength of the Dragon and Phoenix clans."
"Furthermore, I need the legacy of the most elite battle formation masters from ancient times..."
Wuming frowned and pondered for a moment, then said helplessly, "Alright! I'll tell you everything I know..."
…………
The Undying Lord acted swiftly, returning to the Northern Wilderness Hills in just half a month.
But the changes in him were visible to the naked eye, especially his overall energy and spirit, which made him look as if he had become thousands of years younger.
Sitting in the courtyard, Chu Yang said with a smile, "It seems that you have gained a lot from this trip, senior..."
The Undying Lord gave Chu Yang a deep look. Long before he returned, he had already noticed the changes in himself, especially in his state of mind.
At the same time, he finally realized that Chu Yang's willingness to help him guard the Northern Wilderness Hill was entirely because he wanted him to take this trip out to further his mental state and find an opportunity for a breakthrough.
The Undying Lord couldn't help but sigh, "If you had been born in the ancient times, my Great Thousand Worlds would never have fallen to this state."
Chu Yang smiled and said, "If the Immortal Emperor heard these words, he would probably call you an unfilial descendant."
The Undying Lord laughed heartily, then his expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice:
"All parties involved have come to believe what you've said and have chosen to support your plan!"
"But before we begin, I'd like to confirm this one last time..."
"Young friend, how confident are you?"
Chu Yang met the Undying Lord's gaze without flinching, his eyes as calm as still water. "One year from now, the Great Thousand World will surely triumph!"
"Six years from now, the Heavenly Evil God will surely die!"
The Undying Lord nodded, then sighed and said, "If our ancestors had known about the Heavenly Evil God's scheme back then, they would have done more than just sacrifice themselves; they would have instead benefited the evil race."
Chu Yang thought for a moment, then said softly, "Senior, there's no need to worry. As long as the final Great Thousand Alliance hasn't begun, the essence of the Immortal Emperor will still remain."
"Once everything settles down, perhaps I can bring him back to life in a special way!" (End of Chapter)
