Chapter 58: Chen Ku sighs, Rahu's remnant soul appears!

The Demon Race has already occupied the Heavenly Court!

Soon, the power and prestige of the Demon Race lineage will inevitably reach its peak.

By then... the primordial world will truly be lively.

Chen Ku muttered to himself, his expression complex.

The Demon Court has emerged; it is the will of Heaven, and it will surely reach an existence of hegemony over heaven and earth.

By that time, Xiating and the Wu Clan will not stand idly by.

A true great war, or rather turmoil, is not far off.

This Great Calamity will also drag countless beings into it, to die with hatred.

Even the Wu and Demon races will ultimately end in mutual annihilation, total destruction.

One can imagine how tremendous a terror the Heaven-Earth Great Calamity is.

However, despite that, Chen Ku feels no worry.

After all, even if the Wu and Demon races and Xiating fight earth-shatteringly, shaking the ages, it will never affect the West.

The West has always been barren, long ignored by all beings as a matter of course.

One could say that this Wu-Demon Great Calamity makes the West merely a spectator of the excitement.

But if one waits for the Great Calamity to fully erupt and sees whether they might have a chance to fish in troubled waters within it, gaining some benefit, that would be best.

Chen Ku thought this with some anticipation.

Afterward, he gathered his thoughts and continued to look at the God-Slaying Spear before him.

"For now... refining this object is still the most important."

The God-Slaying Spear is one of the foremost offensive entities in the primordial world, containing boundless destructive intent.

Therefore, to fully refine it is also extremely difficult.

Fortunately, Chen Ku had anticipated this.

As his words fell, he once again exerted the Law of Force, forcibly suppressing the God-Slaying Spear's violence and destructive intent.

Hand seals formed and continued to refine the seal within.

But this refinement did not last long.

At one moment, a seal's power shattered with a boom.

Seeing this, Chen Ku felt delighted, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Having refined one seal's power, the God-Slaying Spear's aura, originally akin to a riot, suddenly waned.

Now, if he wields it, he can also exert some of the God-Slaying Spear's might.

However, before the smile on Chen Ku's face could spread...

Whoosh!

Unexpectedly, a black shadow suddenly appeared, shooting out violently from the God-Slaying Spear.

Its speed reached the extreme, impossible to guard against.

In the blink of an eye, it plunged into Chen Ku's body.

Chen Ku startled, about to use his divine sense to investigate what that black shadow was.

But immediately, a tone full of delight entered Chen Ku's ears.

"Hehe... a fleshly body transformed from a top-grade innate spiritual root?!"

"Not bad... not bad......"

"This venerable one has lain dormant for endless ages, finally awaiting such a fleshly body."

"Haha, finally I can be reborn through this and display my supreme divine might again."

Without doubt, this is clearly the words of that black shadow that had burrowed into Chen Ku's body.

At the very moment that voice sounded, Chen Ku keenly sensed that the previously tranquil God-Slaying Spear also trembled slightly.

That feeling was as if he had received some mysterious summons.

Chen Ku couldn't help but frown, as if deep in thought!

Rahu!!

Only Rahu's aura could cause the God-Slaying Spear to react.

Could it be that, like the Primordial Qilin before, a wisp of Rahu's remnant soul is lodged in this God-Slaying Spear?

Moreover, it differs from the remnant soul of the Primordial Qilin.

In those earlier words, there was revealed an ineffable arrogance and disdain.

Clearly, it was not that Rahu, on the brink of death, had no choice but to flee into the God-Slaying Spear.

All this.... could it be that Rahu did this intentionally?!

In other words, the so-called Demonic Ancestor has not truly perished?!

No!

Chen Ku secretly shook his head, rejecting this speculation!

The struggle between Dao and Demon is not false!

Furthermore, even if Rahu is immensely powerful, it is impossible for him to hide the heavens and cross the sea without Hongjun noticing.

In that battle long ago, Rahu had already perished body and Dao, transformed into an extraterrestrial heavenly demon; this is certainly not false.

After a moment's contemplation, Chen Ku gradually came to understand.

In legend, this Demonic Ancestor Rahu has always been extraordinarily cunning.

It seems he merely, unwilling to accept defeat, used some inscrutable ghost-god method to leave such a backhand in the God-Slaying Spear, awaiting the right moment to emerge again, intending to revive the Demonic Ancestor's might.

This can also be heard from those earlier words.

Thinking of this, Chen Ku couldn't help but let out a scoff.

Heh... I didn't expect that the once mighty Magic Ancestor Luo Hou.

And now he ends up timid and shrinking, hiding in the dark.

It's truly pitiful and lamentable!

Chen Ku knew that against an existence like Luo Hou, the Stimulating Generals Method often works remarkably well.

Indeed!

As soon as he spoke, he clearly sensed that the qi hidden within his body stagnated for a moment.

This further convinced Chen Ku that it was indeed Luo Hou's remnant soul, or rather a wisp of consciousness.

Moments later, a violent and ferocious qi burst forth, seemingly lowering the surrounding temperature by several degrees.

Of course, this had no effect on Chen Ku.

At the same time, Luo Hou's words sounded again.

"Eh, kid, you're smart to have guessed my identity!"

"It seems my prestige still spreads throughout the world, earning the reverence of countless beings!"

Obviously, upon Chen Ku's words revealing Luo Hou's identity, the latter also appeared quite pleased.

But upon hearing this, Chen Ku couldn't help but roll his eyes!

"Prestige spreads?!"

In the mouths of beings, the so-called Magic Ancestor Luo Hou is merely a joke of one who lacked skill and ultimately died and vanished.

Especially for Jieyin and Zhunti, they would love to whip his corpse.

Moreover, even if Luo Hou were still alive, his violent and overbearing deeds would not leave a good impression in the hearts of beings.

It's thanks to this Luo Hou being able to say such words.

It seems the so-called Magic Ancestor has a thicker skin than myself.

Just as Chen Ku couldn't help but complain internally.

Luo Hou spoke again, this time his words carried an indescribable threat.

"Kid, since you know my identity,"

"then obediently yield this body to me to control."

"Rest assured, I will preserve your consciousness so you can witness me reforging supreme glory."

"And when I attain the Dao, you will surely receive your share of benefits."

Luo Hou was once one of the magic gods of the Three Thousand Great Daos, mastering the laws of the Magic Path, so his divine sense is naturally keen.

He had already discerned Chen Ku's origin: it is innate bitter bamboo, a top-tier innate spiritual root.

Therefore, he is quite pleased with this body.

And now, Luo Hou also needs such a body to truly reappear in the world.

Moreover, if he could occupy Chen Ku's body, he could hide from all the world's powerful beings.

This is truly a double win!

But upon hearing Luo Hou's words, Chen Ku was first stunned.

Immediately, he laughed, his expression full of mockery and ridicule.

"Heh... attaining the Dao!!"

"Laughable, truly laughable!"

"At this point, you're still indulging in such grandiose dreams."

Chen Ku shook his head repeatedly.

This also left the Luo Hou remnant soul that had infiltrated Chen Ku's body somewhat dazed!
