Chapter 179: Subduing the Celestial Sovereign
"What are you doing, Celestial Sovereign?" The voice of the Heavenly Emperor echoed through the sky.
"I hereby appoint the Celestial Sovereign as the King of Celestial Sovereignty, granting him a first-class official position!"
"Boom!" A muffled thunder sounded.
"Thank you, Celestial Emperor!" A hand hovered just an inch above the head of the King of Celestial Sovereignty. The Heavenly Emperor hesitated for a moment, then withdrew his right hand with reluctance, saying in frustration, "Hmph! Yang Chen, you are ruthless! Ten years from now, we will settle this score!"
"Activate the Four Symbols Formation!" Yang Chen did not respond but instead activated the Four Symbols Formation that had been established at the founding of the nation and had not been used since.
"Yang Chen, what do you want to do?" The Heavenly Emperor asked coldly.
"In my domain, how can I allow you to come and go as you please?" Yang Chen said calmly. "The entire Lingxiao City is within my Four Symbols Formation. If you want to leave, you must break my formation; otherwise..."
"What if I break your Four Symbols Formation?" The Heavenly Emperor said arrogantly.
"Well, I can't guarantee that in breaking my formation, you won't harm my soldiers," Yang Chen teased. Remembering how Yang Chen had sacrificed soldiers to obtain celestial energy for himself, the Heavenly Emperor felt a chill run down his spine—immortal soldiers that couldn't be killed!
"What exactly do you want?" The Heavenly Emperor finally calmed down and asked.
"I don't need anything from your Longxiao Immortal Kingdom; I only need your assurance that no one will invade my Shadowkill Immortal Kingdom in the future," Yang Chen said lightly. The Heavenly Emperor gritted his teeth and replied, "I promise you."
"That's best," Yang Chen smiled and then turned his gaze to the Celestial Sovereign, saying, "Celestial Sovereign, I agree to your request."
"What conditions?" The soul Celestial Sovereign had not yet reacted when Yang Chen said, "I hereby appoint the soul Celestial Sovereign as the Soul King, receiving..."
"Poof!" The soul Celestial Sovereign was struck in the chest by someone, causing his energy to scatter, and immediately, Tianjizi and others took advantage of the moment to rush in.
"Dragon Heavenly Emperor, you!" The soul Celestial Sovereign said resentfully, and then seemed to understand something.
"Yang Chen, well calculated!" Dragon Heavenly Emperor suddenly realized something and said fiercely.
Then, with a final breath, Tianjizi and the others worked together to confine a mass of colorless flames.
"I appoint Life Sovereign as..."
"Thank you, Celestial Emperor!" Life Sovereign hurriedly said. As soon as he finished speaking, Dragon Heavenly Emperor appeared beside him, his right palm only a fist's distance from his head.
"I appoint Life Sovereign as the Chief Eunuch, receiving a ninth-rank official position, while simultaneously being imprisoned in the heavenly prison, awaiting judgment!" Yang Chen mocked.
"Ah?" Life Sovereign said in surprise.
"Yes, Celestial Emperor!" Yi Tianzheng and the others said respectfully.
"Dragon Heavenly Emperor, no need to see you off." Yang Chen smiled.
"Hmph!" Dragon Heavenly Emperor said no more and leaped away.
"Celestial Emperor, I am not as good as you." The Holy Annihilation King said respectfully.
"In my domain, if I cannot gain an advantage, how can I compete with the Celestial Dragon Kingdom?" Yang Chen smiled.
"Celestial Emperor, how should we handle this Soul Heavenly Flame? I can barely contain it," said Tian Jizi and the others. Yang Chen glanced at the corpse of the Soul Celestial Sovereign and casually stabbed the Yan Huang Blood Sword into its body, saying lightly, "Soul Heavenly Flame? Dragon Soul, devour it!"
"Yes, boss." Then, the Dragon Soul shot out from Yang Chen's brow and dove into the Soul Fire. The Soul Heavenly Flame immediately began to struggle against it, while Tian Jizi and the others stood up and no longer intervened.
"Bring forth a banquet; all officials and generals—Holy Annihilation King!" Yang Chen commanded.
"Yes, Celestial Emperor."
"Thank you, Celestial Emperor," Holy Annihilation King said gratefully.
"Holy Annihilation King is too polite; this is what I promised you before," Yang Chen smiled. Then everyone entered Lingxiao Hall together, where subordinates immediately presented a feast.
"Come, everyone take a seat, toast to Holy Annihilation King!" After sitting on the throne, Yang Chen raised his cup and said.
"Yes, Celestial Emperor."
"Holy Annihilation King, I am Yi Tianzheng, cheers!"
"The National Master is too polite, cheers!"
"Tian Jizi."
"Celestial Calculator."
"........." While everyone was enjoying their drinks,
"Ah~" a voice cried out in despair, "Yang Chen, if I get the chance, I will make you suffer a thousand cuts!"
Yang Chen smiled slightly and didn't care, saying, "Come on, let's drink!"
"Celestial Emperor, should I go deal with him..." Xiao Tian said as he made a gesture across his neck.
"No need, leave this person for Master's Wife to handle when she returns," Yang Chen replied with a smile, then raised his glass and said, "Don't let such trivial matters ruin the mood. Drink!"
"I toast to the Celestial Emperor," Holy Annihilation King said as he stood up and raised his glass.
"Holy Annihilation King, there's no need for that at the table," Yang Chen also stood up and raised his glass. Yang Chen's standing was a sign of respect towards Holy Annihilation King.
"Xie Xian Emperor, I will drink first as a sign of respect!" Holy Annihilation King said gratefully before tilting his head back and finishing his drink.
"Mm." Yang Chen nodded and also downed his drink.
"Roar!" A deep dragon roar echoed from outside the hall, and then Yang Chen's Fighting Spirit surged within him, rising from a Two-Star Demon Lord to a Four-Star Demon Lord.
"Congratulations, Celestial Emperor," everyone cupped their hands in salute.
"Thank you. Let's drink," Yang Chen smiled.
"Yes." Outside the hall, a transparent figure of a dragon emerged, surrounded by an illusory soul fire, piercing through the air and entering Yang Chen's forehead, then sinking into the Dantian.
"Celestial Emperor, has your soul taken form?" Holy Annihilation King asked in surprise. Previously, when the Dragon Soul appeared, Holy Annihilation King did not pay much attention. It was only after Yang Chen instructed it to devour the Soul Flame that he realized Yang Chen's soul had already taken form. However, a formed soul would not possess intelligence, which is why Holy Annihilation King asked this question.
"That is just a little creature I have subdued, residing within me. Now, let’s continue drinking!" Yang Chen explained half-truthfully. Upon hearing this explanation, Holy Annihilation King felt a wave of astonishment.
"Subduing the soul of a living being? What does that even mean? And judging by its appearance, it should be from the Demon Lord Realm! A soul creature from the Demon Lord Realm? Willingly submitting to a human?" Although Holy Annihilation King was surprised, he did not inquire further.
The banquet lasted from morning until afternoon, with everyone enjoying themselves; well, there were no guests left now. While Yang Chen and the others were celebrating with drinks, significant events were unfolding far away at the Wilderness Center - Tower of Babel.
At the Wasteland Tower, which was originally desolate, now housed ten divine-level experts and two peak Saints of Combat.
"Blood Emperor, Huang Batian!!" The leader among the ten divine-level experts shouted angrily.
"Eagle Emperor," both Blood Emperor and Huang Batian responded respectfully.
"We entrusted you two to guard the lower realm, yet you both passed your Divine Status to others and allowed foreign realms to emerge in the lower realm! What punishment do you deserve?" Eagle Emperor scolded furiously.
"Eagle Emperor, we can't be entirely blamed for this. When the Shadowkill Celestial Kingdom was established, there were Upper Realm Beings assisting us. As for the establishment of the Dragon Sky Immortal Kingdom, it directly advanced from a dynasty to a Celestial Kingdom, without any heavenly sacrifices," Huang Batian quickly explained.
"Upper Realm Being? Could it really be..." Eagle Emperor said with slightly dazed eyes.
