Chapter 223: Heavenly Will Ancestor
Yang Chen once again threw out a Nourishing Yuan Pill, took a step forward, and said, "Demon Emperor, shall we have a contest?"
"That would be appropriate," the Demon Emperor nodded in agreement.
"If I take one sword strike from me, I will concede," Yang Chen said arrogantly.
"Alright!" the Demon Emperor replied solemnly.
Yang Chen stepped forward with his left foot, took a bow stance with his right foot, leaned slightly forward, and silently gripped the Yanhuang Blood Sword strapped to his back.
Seeing this, the Demon Emperor quickly assumed a defensive posture, with protective battle energy surging around him.
Perhaps it was a long time, or perhaps just a moment: "Cross Tremor Sword, Ten Thousand Cuts Return to One!"
Swish! In that instant, the world fell into brief darkness; perhaps it was not darkness but rather the moment Yang Chen drew his sword, dazzling light filled the air, causing colors to fade from people's eyes, or perhaps it truly was a moment of darkness in the world.
Yang Chen flicked his hand and sheathed his sword.
The Demon Emperor stepped back and changed his clothes.
"I lost," the Demon Emperor said nonchalantly.
"Well then, do we need to compete in the fifth round?" Yang Chen asked.
"In the fifth round of competition, my clan's ancestor wishes to challenge him," the Demon Emperor casually pointed at Yao Wuqing.
"Oh? Why?" Yang Chen asked.
"Because I, the Heavenly Will Ancestor, want to properly test this little one." A calm voice emerged from the Demon Race Forbidden Area, followed by the appearance of a white-haired old man before Yang Chen.
"Greetings, Heavenly Will Ancestor," the four Demon Emperors said respectfully.
"There's no need for that. This old fellow who's half in the coffin doesn't care for such formalities. Little one, are you interested in sparring with this old man?" the Heavenly Will Ancestor said gently.
"Oh? In the Demigod Realm?" Yao Wuqing's eyes were filled with fighting spirit as he looked at Yang Chen.
"Do you want to fight?" Yang Chen asked.
"Although I am only an Eight-Star Fighting Saint, I wish to battle!" Yao Wuqing said firmly.
"Then go ahead," Yang Chen nodded and replied.
"Thank you, Celestial Emperor," Yao Wuqing said respectfully, then fixed his gaze on the Heavenly Will Ancestor.
"Little one, what is your name?" the Heavenly Will Ancestor asked.
"Yao Wuqing."
"Impressive name; the Ancestor likes it. Draw your Demon Blade and spar with the Ancestor, how about it?" the Heavenly Will Ancestor inquired.
"Do you know the name of this blade?" Yao Wuqing asked.
"Hehe, after the battle, I will tell you everything," the Heavenly Will Ancestor smiled.
Yao Wuqing nodded slightly, then slowly drew the Demon Blade from his back, his momentum gradually rising.
"Demon Emperor's Blade Slash!" Heavenly Will Ancestor exclaimed in astonishment.
As the blade was drawn to a third of its length, Yao Wuqing coldly stared at Heavenly Will Ancestor and shouted, "Blade Slash!"
"Swish! Swish!" The Blood-Red Demon Blade instantly unsheathed, slicing to the left with one strike, then quickly retracting for another. A fan-shaped surge of blood-colored blade energy erupted forth, directly targeting Heavenly Will Ancestor.
"Clang!" Heavenly Will Ancestor waved his hand, shattering the whistling blade energy. He then extended his index finger, flicking it to deflect Yao Wuqing's incoming Demon Blade, and followed up with a kick that sent Yao Wuqing flying.
"Not bad, but your fighting spirit is lacking," Heavenly Will Ancestor said with a smile.
"Hmph, so what?" Yao Wuqing retorted coldly. "Stellar Intent!"
A purple starry light descended from the sky, directly pouring into Yao Wuqing's body, causing his cultivation to rapidly ascend: Eight-Star Dou Saint, Nine-Star Dou Saint, Six Transitions Dou Saint, Seven Transitions Dou Saint.
He stopped at Seven Transitions Dou Saint.
"Ha ha! Purple Tenuity Star! It's the Purple Tenuity Star! Come on, let me see your strength!!" Heavenly Will Ancestor shouted excitedly.
"Demon Emperor's Rift Punch Slash!"
Yao Wuqing slashed forward with the Demon Blade, unleashing dozens to hundreds of blade shadows that struck down toward Heavenly Will Ancestor.
"Break!" Heavenly Will Ancestor's expression tightened as he held a trap in his hand and swung it upward to counter the massive blade shadow.
Suddenly, a chill ran down Heavenly Will Ancestor's back. He swung his right hand behind him to collide with the Demon Blade. Yao Wuqing slid his foot as he executed the Demon God Step Z-Shaped Step, maneuvering behind Heavenly Will Ancestor and thrusting the Demon Blade straight toward his heart. Heavenly Will Ancestor hurriedly retreated.
Demon Wuqing closely followed, shouting, "Demon Blade - Bewitching Soul!"
In an instant, the blood-red light of the Demon Blade surged, and Heavenly Will Ancestor halted his steps. Demon Wuqing swiftly approached and thrust his sword, piercing an inch into the heart of Heavenly Will Ancestor. He regained consciousness and pinched the main Demon Blade with two fingers of his right hand, just about to speak when he heard Demon Wuqing shout:
"Demon Emperor - Break the Sky Slash!"
"Swish swish swish!" The dazzling blood-red blade light flickered in front of Heavenly Will Ancestor's chest. He had no time to consider anything else and quickly summoned a piece of Black Armor to defend himself, then waved his hand to block the Demon Blade.
After a moment, the two separated. Heavenly Will Ancestor was in disarray, his Black Armor damaged and his breath slightly chaotic.
Similarly, Demon Wuqing's breath was also disordered, with seven or eight parts of his fighting spirit gone.
"Demon Emperor's Five Styles, how many have you mastered?" Heavenly Will Ancestor asked.
"I have grasped the essence of four styles, only lacking the final slash, which I cannot comprehend," Demon Wuqing replied. But in an instant, he coldly questioned, "How do you know so much? Speak!"
"Come with me into the forbidden area; I will tell you everything!" Heavenly Will Ancestor said.
Demon Wuqing looked at Yang Chen, who slightly nodded. Thus, Demon Wuqing said, "Alright, I will go in with you."
"Demon Emperor, from now on, pass the position of Demon Emperor to Wuqing," Heavenly Will Ancestor said.
Then Demon Wuqing replied, "I have no interest in the position of Demon Emperor; you should take it."
"Mm." Yao Tianshang nodded in agreement.
"Whatever you say; you have that qualification," Heavenly Will Ancestor said as he walked toward the depths of the forbidden area. Demon Wuqing closely followed behind him while the Grand Elder, Second Elder, and others looked at Demon Wuqing with envious expressions.
“Demon Emperor, today, in the five rounds, although the outcome of the last round is still uncertain, my side has won four matches. Therefore, the wilderness should rightfully belong to me!” Yang Chen said with authority.
“Later, I will pass the position of Demon Emperor to Yao Tianshang and then retire to the position of Fourth Elder,” Demon Emperor nodded and said, handing back the imperial edict from three years ago to Yang Chen.
“Alright, now please arrange my residence, Demon Emperor,” Yang Chen replied as he accepted it with a nod.
“Please,” Demon Emperor nodded in response.
Demon Race Forbidden Area
“I am Heaven's Will, greeting Young Master!” As soon as he entered the inner courtyard of the forbidden area, Heavenly Will Ancestor respectfully said.
“Ancestor, what do you mean by this?” Yao Wuqing asked calmly.
“Young Master, regarding the specific matters, please allow this old servant to explain: Before the War of the Demon Gods, this continent had Nine Emperors! These are now known as the Nine Clans! Later, as the Nine Clans grew stronger under the leadership of the Nine Emperors and with the assistance of the heavenly and earthly strange fire, the first emperor of the Nine Clans established a method for cultivation up to the Demigod Realm, thus allowing the Nine Clans to dominate the Nine Continents!”
“Nine Continents? Wasn't there only Four Continents?” Yao Wuqing inquired.
“During the War of the Demon Gods, the Nine Continents were shattered. In what was originally known as the heavenly and earthly mysterious yellow Primordial Universe, the heavenly and earthly mysterious yellow Four Continents became the Eastern Continent, while the Primordial Universe became the Western Continent. The wilderness in between is now known as Demon Continent!” Heavenly Will Ancestor explained.
“The Demon Continent was divided into two parts and is still larger than the Eastern Four Continents?” Yao Wuqing said in surprise.
