Chapter 159: Mandated by Heaven, May It Last Forever!
"Inscription."
"Mandated by Heaven, may it last forever!" Yang Chen said. After he spoke, the eight characters appeared at the bottom of the Blood Jade Seal.
"After merging with the heart of the Demon God, this Imperial Seal should be able to gather faith and suppress fortune." The Heavenly Catastrophe reappeared in the sky.
"Hmph, heavenly thunder, retreat!"
"The Calamity Cloud in the sky immediately retreated." Everyone was left dumbfounded.
"Work hard; having established the Empire, you should continue to strive. Everything I possess will remain with me. Today, I will exceptionally pass on the method to forge the Heavenly Kingdom and also pass on one more item for your proper use! This Soul Tower shall be kept for summoning souls." Yang Chen looked up and saw that what was originally a Corpse Mountain, nine million tall and two million wide, had now been reduced to a white bone tower, nine meters high and two meters wide and long—the Soul Tower.
"I shall take my leave; the remaining essence will assist you!" Suddenly, the sky became bright and clear, then the phantom behind Yang Chen once again entered his body. After that, Yang Chen's cultivation… Eight-Star Battle Emperor, Nine-Star Battle Emperor, Peak of Three-Star Dou Emperor, One-Star Duelist.
"What is this? Could it be that Yang Chen can connect with the Upper Realm? No way."
"Is there a connection with the Upper Realm?"
"It should be; that voice just now must have been from an Upper Realm Being."
"Look at Yang Chen's cultivation. He established a nation and jumped from Seven-Star Fighting Emperor to One-Star Duelist? I want to go too!"
"You think your father is a god from the Upper Realm?"
"Long time no see, Yao Tianshang, and you too, Yao Wuqing," Yang Chen said with a smile.
"Yes, of course. Thanks to you, everything is well." Yao Tianshang laughed heartily. Yao Wuqing remained silent and simply nodded.
“Shadow Killer Your Majesty, don't mind it, recently Ruthless has awakened his bloodline and has been rather indifferent,” Yao Tianshang said.
“Awakened his bloodline? The Ancient Eight Clans still allow you to exist, you must have suffered,” Yi Tianzheng said bitterly. Then he moved his fingers slightly and exclaimed, “Dual Fate? Imperial Mandate of the Hidden Emperor Star?”
Hearing this, Yang Chen replied, “We should have a good talk with our friend. Yao Tongtian, what have you considered? My patience is limited.”
“Yao Tianshang, are you really going to collude with outsiders against me?” Yao Tongtian asked.
“It's nothing personal; it's survival of the fittest. I chose the path of Sky Tower, and what about you? You tarnish the name of Sky Tower,” Yao Tianshang said coldly.
“I know there are no feelings between us, but we are from the same clan. Are you really going to treat me this way?” Yao Tongtian inquired.
“It’s nothing personal; I have my choices, and so do you. Shadow Killer Your Majesty can give me what I want. What can you offer me?” Yao Tianshang said lightly. “I don’t want to kill my own kin; think it over.”
“Let the remaining six, seven, and eight-tier Demon Beasts follow me, and I will arrange everything properly. At the same time, I will have my soldiers sign an Equal Contract with your people. How does that sound?” Yang Chen proposed.
“This…” Yao Tongtian hesitated.
“The happiest thing in life is having choices. Because among choices, at least one option is correct,” Yao Wuqing said coldly.
“Hmm?” Yang Chen looked at Yao Wuqing in surprise and nodded in appreciation.
“There are only about 150 million Demon Beasts in the entire Transverse Mountain Range. We each lead half; how many do you have left under your command? Less than 30 million now, right? However, there are 60 million here, of which 35 million are ours. If needed, more Demon Beasts can arrive here at any time,” Yao Tianshang stated plainly.
“I know,” Yao Tongtian replied.
“I promised Yao Tianshang to help him become the Emperor of the Wilderness. Now I can also help you become the king of the land of the Wilderness, with a status equal to that of Yao Tianshang. How about it?” Yang Chen offered.
“Alright, then I will follow you!” Yao Tongtian gritted his teeth and said resolutely.
"Thus, very well. From today, I establish the Empire's religion, Heavenly Teachings! The leader is Yao Tongtian! He is appointed as the King of Sky Tower," Yang Chen declared loudly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," Yao Tongtian replied respectfully.
"In the future, King of Sky Tower must cultivate talented individuals for me," Yang Chen said with a smile.
"This is natural," Yao Tongtian conceded.
"Here is the Tongtian Order; in the future, it will serve as identification throughout the Empire. King of Sky Tower, I grant you the Celestial Emperor's Edict. From now on, anyone holding the Tongtian Order will be under your command." Yang Chen took a Purple Gold Coin from the Demon God Ring and melted it down to forge a purple token, with the words "Demon's Kiss" and "Angel's Sigh" engraved on one side and "Sky Tower" on the other. He also inscribed a Hexagram mark on it.
"King of Sky Tower, please help me manage Heavenly Teachings in the future," Yang Chen said.
Yao Tongtian accepted the Celestial Emperor's Edict and, after dripping blood to recognize it as his own, respectfully said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Subsequently, Yang Chen refined ten golden Tongtian Orders from gold coins and inscribed a Hexagram on each before handing them to Yao Tongtian's ten subordinates, all Ninth-Order Monsters.
"King of Sky Tower, you and your subordinates above the sixth rank should follow me," Yang Chen said with a smile.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Although Yao Tongtian was not overly respectful, he still observed basic etiquette. He then went out to organize his forces while Yao Tianshang commanded his Demon Beasts to familiarize themselves with and take over this place.
"Yao Tianshang, our first transaction has been completed; shouldn't you hand over the Demon-Slaying Blade in your possession to me?" Yang Chen asked.
"This is natural!" Yao Tianshang replied with a smile. He then took out the Yandang Blade and handed it to Yang Chen.
"I look forward to our second collaboration. If you do not wish to cooperate, I will elevate Yao Tongtian instead," Yang Chen said with a smile.
"Well, I..." Yao Tianshang hesitated.
"I, Yao Wuqing, agree on behalf of my father to ally with Shadow Killer Your Majesty," Yao Wuqing said coldly.
“Ruthless, you?” Yao Tianshang glanced at Yao Wuqing, who nodded. Then Yao Tianshang looked at Yang Chen and said, “What Ruthless said is also my intention.”
“Good, you will not regret today’s choice,” Yang Chen said with a smile.
“I think so too,” Yao Tianshang replied with a smile.
After that, Yao Tianshang left, and Yang Chen took out the Yandang Blade and looked at it: “Yandang Blade: Attack Power+30. There is a 25% chance of double critical hits during normal attacks.”
“Ding! Do you want to fuse with meat and body?”
“Yes.”
“Ding! Yandang Blade has fused with Moonlight Beauty, upgrading to Divine Weapon Curved Moon Rainbow Jade!”
“Ding! Congratulations to player Yang Chen for finding a Heroic Weapon. The level of Heroes has increased by one.”
“Ding! Congratulations to player Yang Chen for leveling up to level 15 and unlocking talent skills. System automatically allocates.”
“Ding! Congratulations to player Yang Chen for mastering the talent skill - Agility Boost.”
“Agility Boost (talent passive skill): Increases Agility by 5% passively.” It’s a simple introduction, but the effect is quite powerful. Friends who have played competitive games know that percentage-increasing items and skills become more powerful as the game progresses.
