Chapter 419
Mo He Tian never imagined that to deal with this tiny Great Xia Empire, he had brought his clan's powerhouses out in full force, yet they still couldn't win after a long battle.
Three Saint Products?
How is this possible?
Wasn't it said that the Great Xia Empire was just a force from a lower plane?
How could they possess such powerful strength in such a short time? And...
It is said that when the Great Xia Empire first rose to fame, the Great Xia Empress had just broken through to the Heavenly Sovereign level!
How long has it been?
One year? Or two years?
In less than two short years, she went from the early Spiritual Product stage to the mid-Immortal Product stage, and possessed means sufficient to contend with Saint Product powerhouses!
Although slightly inferior to that legendary monster, the Chu King, Mo He Tian could be certain that in the nearly thousand-year history of the Great Thousand World, a figure like the Great Xia Empress had never appeared.
But that could be let go; after all, as a figure capable of claiming to be an emperor and hegemon, one must have some foundation and strength.
But where did that mysterious black-haired youth pop out from?
He had never heard of such a person in the Great Thousand World!
Mo He Tian could be certain that the black-haired youth, unlike the Great Xia Empress, possessed genuine Saint Product early-stage cultivation, but the feeling he gave people was somewhat strange.
It was as if...
A puppet without emotions or intelligence! This thought startled Mo He Tian, because even looking through history, a Saint Product puppet had never appeared in the Great Thousand World! And then there was that sudden powerful aura; even he felt a trace of threat.
Mo He Tian knew this was a powerhouse no weaker than himself! Saint Product Heavenly Sovereign mid-stage! This tiny Great Xia Empire was truly full of hidden talents! Now that things had reached this point, Mo He Tian understood that he no longer had the chance to annex this newly risen force.
Not just their Mohe Ancient Clan, but even looking at the entire Great Thousand World, I fear no one could stop the momentum of the Great Xia Empire's rise.
After all, the three Great Thousand giants never intervened in power struggles, but devoted themselves entirely to dealing with the Outer Evil Tribe.
Besides those three peak figures, who else could suppress the Great Xia Empire, which possessed three Saint Products?
At this moment, Mo He Tian thought of the fate of the other four clans and the various rumors from the outside world.
Thinking carefully, it did indeed seem that an invisible hand was secretly controlling all of this.
But is this person really the Undying Lord?
Mo He Tian not only doubted this, because in his view, even if the foundation of the Land of Ten Thousand Tombs was deep, I fear it would be difficult to set up such a large trap.
Counting the mysterious powerhouses who appeared in the Endless Fire Territory and the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, five Saint Products had already appeared in this turmoil!
Can the Land of Ten Thousand Tombs produce five Saint Products? Perhaps they could, but those people, even in the Gravekeeper lineage, were definitely existences with one foot in the coffin.
Moreover, the Gravekeeper lineage needed to guard the Great Thousand Demon-Suppressing Array at all times; how could they send out so many Saint Product powerhouses at once? If they did, the defensive power of the Northern Wilderness Hill would be empty, and the Outer Evil Tribe would inevitably take advantage of the void, attempting to help the Heavenly Evil Deity break the seal.
Which is lighter and which is heavier, one can see at a glance.
As a descendant of the Immortal Emperor, Mo He Tian did not believe that the Undying Lord would disregard the danger of the entire Great Thousand World for the sake of interests and internal strife.
But if it wasn't the Undying Lord, who would that mastermind be?
In just a few breaths, Mo He Tian's thoughts turned a hundred times, but he still couldn't find a clue.
After all, there were only a few Saint Products in the Great Thousand World, and all were existences who claimed to be ancestors; but in this turmoil, besides the Great Xia Empress, the other four people supporting these emerging forces were of unknown origin.
If it weren't for the spiritual energy fluctuations on them, Mo He Tian would even suspect whether these forces were colluding with the Outer Evil Tribe.
"I have long heard that the Mohe Ancient Clan is the head of the five Ancient Clans; seeing it today..."
A faint, light laugh rang out, the tone somewhat indifferent, as if he didn't take Mo He Tian to heart at all, "The strength is passable, but the bearing is truly lacking..."
Once these words were spoken, Mo He Tian narrowed his eyes.
What a bold statement! It seems the other party was well-prepared and did not intend to let today's matter end easily.
At this moment, he had completely understood that behind these six newly risen forces, there must stand a behemoth.
Their five Ancient Clans had fallen into a trap; the other party had already set the stage, just waiting for them, these "clowns," to take the stage voluntarily! Clearly, the five Ancient Clans had indeed taken the stage, but now the other party had removed the steps, wanting to make it "easy to get on stage but hard to get off."
At the same time, Mo He Tian vaguely realized that the other party's confidence was so strong that they were likely not people from the Great Xia Empire; besides, how could a lower plane produce such a feat? Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and said: "Since you dare to intervene in the affairs of our five Ancient Clans, why hide your head and show your tail?"
Just as his voice fell, his pupils constricted suddenly.
Because a figure appeared before him without any warning; Mo He Tian could be certain that if the other party had launched a sneak attack, none of the Mohe Ancient Clan powerhouses present, including himself, would have been able to detect it in advance.
But the newcomer did not sneak attack him, nor did he go to help the Great Xia Empress and the black-haired youth; he either had absolute certainty or was too arrogant.
Looking at the young figure in front of him, Mo He Tian frowned slightly.
Because he didn't recognize this person, and he had never heard of when such a young powerhouse had appeared in the Great Thousand World!
The aura on this person seemed to be only at the mid-Spiritual Product Heavenly Sovereign stage, but the momentum and pressure emitted were not inferior to him, a Saint Product mid-stage powerhouse.
"Senior Mo He, this junior has now appeared; I wonder what advice you have?" Chu Yang smiled, looking at Mo He Tian.
A few days ago, he had just broken through to the mid-Spiritual Product stage, cultivating the complete version of the Source Decision, and coupled with his terrifying talent and comprehension, his cultivation speed was far superior to Na Lan Yanran and Yun Yun, who were already monstrous enough.
Originally, it was only because he was rejected by the world's will that he couldn't break through to the Heavenly Sovereign level.
Now that this problem was solved, Chu Yang's cultivation speed was naturally advancing by leaps and bounds.
Mo He Tian stared at Chu Yang for a long time; seeing the Great Xia Empress's aura like a rainbow, actually beating his own Saint Product clan elder back step by step, with a posture of wanting to suppress him in one go, he couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.
He had originally thought that the black-haired youth was the tough nut to crack, but the Great Xia Empress's strength far exceeded his expectations.
If this dragged on, I fear that before Qin Tian arrived, their Mohe Ancient Clan would suffer a defeat.
Losing to the newly risen Great Xia Empire, neither he nor the Mohe Ancient Clan could afford to lose this face!
Looking at Chu Yang, Mo He Tian said in a deep voice: "This is a matter between our Mohe Ancient Clan and the Great Xia Empire; as long as you do not help either side, our Mohe Ancient Clan will owe you a great favor!"
Chu Yang shook his head and said: "Since it is a matter between you and Great Xia, then I cannot stand idly by even more."
Looking at his smiling appearance, Mo He Tian frowned.
Could it be that he had guessed wrong before?
There was no so-called mastermind, but these forces from the lower plane had their own extraordinary foundation? Could this young man also be a powerhouse from the Great Xia Empire? "More words are useless; if Senior wants to strike, this junior will accompany you!"
Chu Yang didn't want to beat around the bush and said directly: "Of course, this Shenzhou Continent is not a place where you can come and go as you please."
"The Mohe Ancient Clan has invaded in force; Senior must give an explanation!"
"Otherwise, this junior doesn't mind going to full-scale war with the Mohe Ancient Clan, or even all five Ancient Clans!"
"I just don't know..."
Speaking of this, Chu Yang paused, his smile becoming playful, "Can Senior represent all five Ancient Clans?"
Mo He Tian's heart sank slightly; he heard the subtext in Chu Yang's words.
It seemed like he was questioning whether he could represent the five Ancient Clans, but in reality, he was indicating...
This person could represent all the emerging forces involved in this turmoil! In other words...
He was the mastermind! It's just that Mo He Tian didn't understand what this guy had to do with the Great Xia Empire? And what did he have to do with the other five forces? And looking at Chu Yang's light and breezy appearance, he suddenly felt that the young man in front of him was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him for a moment.
This was not Mo He Tian's fault; although Chu Yang's name was famous in the Great Thousand World, not many people had seen him in person.
Most people had only heard hearsay about Chu Yang's deeds, and Mo He Tian had only seen his portrait once.
"I didn't expect that our Great Thousand World is truly full of hidden talents; behind several forces from the lower plane, there actually stands a figure like you!"
Mo He Tian smiled insincerely, not knowing if he was mocking himself or sarcastically implying that Chu Yang had broken the rules.
"Continuing to drag this out doesn't seem to be of any benefit to you..."
Chu Yang said, while pointing in Tang Huo'er's direction.
At this time, Tang Huo'er had already entered a state of perfection, and her use of the Taiji True Form was becoming increasingly miraculous, even if she couldn't maintain her current state for long.
But before she exhausted her strength, it was enough to solve that Saint Product clan elder of the Mohe Ancient Clan!
Mo He Tian's eyes narrowed, but he still didn't strike.
Because he knew very well that even if he struck, he couldn't change the current situation.
The other Saint Product clan elder was held back by the black-haired youth, and he felt a threat from the young man in front of him; the other party was clearly not someone to be trifled with.
If they really fought, the outcome was unknown.
Since neither striking nor not striking would help, why take the risk of becoming a stepping stone for others? He was a long-famous figure; if he really fell into the hands of this young man, not only would his late-life reputation be ruined, but the Mohe Ancient Clan would also lose face.
At least for now, even if this trip was a failure, as long as he, the Mohe Ancient Clan's number one powerhouse, was not defeated, he could at least save some face.
Mo He Tian even regretted not bringing the Mohe Yin-Yang Bottle; as a Saint Product peerless holy object passed down from ancient times, with the Mohe Yin-Yang Bottle by his side, he even had the confidence to contend with the three Great Thousand giants.
But then again, he had brought his clan's powerhouses out in full force, already showing absolute importance to the Great Xia Empire.
Who could have imagined that the situation would develop into what it is now? At this time, Mo He Tian's mentality was completely different from before; he even hoped that Qin Tian would arrive sooner.
As long as the Great Thousand Palace intervened, he could use this as a step to retreat.
"Since Senior is unwilling to strike, then this junior will not be polite!"
Chu Yang naturally saw through his thoughts; he had planned for so long, how could he let this matter end just like that? The Source Martial Dharma Body leaped behind him, finally incorporating his main body into it; the demonic patterns on the Dharma Body's left arm and chest shone brightly, and the phantom of a dragon and elephant appeared behind him.
Extreme Heavenly Demon Strength! A killing move as soon as he strikes! Chu Yang didn't intend to beat around the bush with Mo He Tian; the reason he wasted his breath with the other party just now was merely to wait for an appropriate opportunity.
A moment when, after he resolved the current situation, Qin Tian could arrive at the first moment to represent the Great Thousand Palace and handle the aftermath! Mo He Tian's expression changed suddenly; if he could feel a threat from Chu Yang before, then at this moment, a fear of facing death suddenly surged in his heart.
Looking at the Dharma Body with surging demonic energy and that terrifying punch, Mo He Tian's intuition told him that if he took it head-on, he would likely fall on the spot!
This feeling made him feel somewhat absurd; after all, even a Saint Product late-stage powerhouse could not kill him in one blow.
Could it be that this young man had reached the level of the three Great Thousand giants?
Chu Yang's strength naturally still had some gap from the three Great Thousand giants.
But he used some small tricks in this strike, mobilizing the plane power of the Saint Yang World; it was under the pressure of this Extreme Heavenly Demon Strength and the plane power that Mo He Tian had this illusion.
"Bang!!"
With one punch, the space collapsed inch by inch; Mo He Tian, realizing that his surroundings were completely locked and there was no way to avoid it, immediately summoned his Sovereign Dharma Body.
Mo He Boundless Body! That was the eighth-ranked supreme Dharma Body in the Great Thousand World's list of ninety-nine Sovereign Dharma Bodies! The huge black-and-white Dharma Body stood proudly between heaven and earth, instead making Chu Yang's Source Martial Dharma Body look somewhat small.
Black and white energy surged from the crown of the Mo He Boundless Body, condensing into a huge black-and-white umbrella; the huge umbrella suddenly rotated, and the world here began to totter.
So that sentence about being able to protect his life no matter the circumstances made the Western Heaven Battle Emperor's heart beat faster.
The Western Heaven Battle Emperor pretended to be in a dilemma and thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "Since King Chu is in urgent need of continent power, then I should naturally fulfill it!"
"However... I have a small request, and I hope King Chu can agree."
While speaking, the Western Heaven Battle Emperor put away the wooden tablet without a trace.
During this meeting, he never referred to himself as "this Emperor," and every detail revealed his fear of Chu Yang?
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow, "Senior, please speak."
The Western Heaven Battle Emperor gave a dry laugh and said: "If the competition for the Son of the Continent is directly canceled, I am afraid many people below will be dissatisfied."
"I want to announce to the public that King Chu was injured in the Outer Realm and needs continent power to heal, using King Chu's name to stabilize popular sentiment..."
The Western Heaven Battle Emperor was very sincere and did not beat around the bush; Chu Yang had once turned the tide at the Western border and had great kindness to the entire Western region of the Great Thousand World.
Bringing him out, the forces under the Western Heaven Battle Hall would naturally no longer feel dissatisfied.
Chu Yang waved his hand indifferently: "No problem! Everything is up to Battle Emperor senior to arrange!"
"It just so happens that this junior destroyed an Outer Realm tribe in a lower plane a few days ago, so it is reasonable to have some injuries..."
The Western Heaven Battle Emperor's pupils shrank, and his eyes couldn't help but change again.
Good fellow! How long has it been since he returned from the Outer Realm?
No wonder he had disappeared for more than a year; it turned out he had gone to a lower plane and destroyed an Outer Realm tribe! The Western Heaven Battle Emperor was also a shrewd person and naturally knew the intention of Chu Yang saying this; it was clearly wanting him to help spread the news.
And so, both sides reached a tacit consensus and chatted warmly again, drinking and enjoying themselves.
