Chapter 373: The Number One Show-Off in Shrouding the Heavens
"What vessel should I cast?"
Yin Qi only pondered for a moment before deciding to refine a seal, for a seal is the symbol of imperial power.
On Earth, the Heirloom Seal of the Realm is the symbol of heaven-mandated imperial power.
In the Fengshen World, the edicts he issues also require the impression of a seal to take effect.
The Kongtong Seal, the supreme treasure of Human Luck, is also a seal.
As the Human Emperor, his vessel can only be a seal.
Having made his decision, Yin Qi began to act.
He refined the chains composed of Divine Patterns, fusing them into the shape of the Human Emperor Seal of the Fengshen World:
Square at the bottom, with nine dragons arching over a pearl at the top.
The face of the seal was engraved with eight large characters: "Having received the mandate from Heaven, may one exist forever in prosperity."
However, the Divine Pattern chains in Yin Qi's Bitter Sea numbered as many as forty-nine, swirling above the purple-gold Bitter Sea; this was the primordial form condensed from life essence.
Compared to the Emperor Script, the Great Desolation Dao Text is even more profound.
This "Heaven" is not Haotian, but refers to the heavens and earth, the Heavenly Dao, originally inherited from the Yellow Emperor.
Next, it required constant, meticulous carving and polishing to shape it into the Human Emperor Seal.
Opening up nine Life Springs, while it made his combat power stronger, meant that the resources consumed were also greater.
After unremitting efforts, the forty-nine Divine Pattern chains were melted down and finally condensed into the shape of the Human Emperor Seal.
Ordinary cultivators only have a few Divine Pattern chains within their Bitter Sea.
Recalling that in the original work, Ye Fan, in order to enhance the power of his "vessel," the tripod, had engraved a large number of Emperor Scripts into it, Yin Qi felt a stir in his heart and also engraved Dao Texts one by one into the Human Emperor Seal.
Even for a Divine Body, there are only a dozen or so.
Because the Human Emperor Seal was newly formed and its capacity to bear was limited, Yin Qi only engraved twelve Dao Texts into it.
With a thought, an Acupoint opened wide, and the Acupoint Deity within broke through his body, turning into a stream of light that rushed out of the courtyard.
But under the blessing of these twelve Dao Texts, the Human Emperor Seal became more vivid, exuding an aura of supremacy.
Yin Qi was cultivating when he was suddenly startled by a powerful aura.
This night.
In the following days, Yin Qi cultivated step by step.
Of course, at this time, there was only a rough outline.
Although it was only the size of an egg, it shone brilliantly and was very perfect.
However, he now had a large piece of Divine Source, so the resources for the Sea of Wheels Mijing should be sufficient.
Over ten miles away.
"Why do you block our path?"
An old woman shouted coldly.
Behind her were Yan Ruyu, Qin Yao, and others.
In front of her, a man in purple robes stood with his sleeves fluttering, like a heavenly god descending to the mortal world. He looked to be in his early twenties, his eyes as bright as stars, standing with his hands behind his back, blocking the way alone.
His aura was vibrant, merging with the surrounding heaven and earth, as if he were one with nature.
Besides him, there were over a dozen experts around, faintly semi-encircling Yan Ruyu and the others, sealing off all four directions.
However, they stood far away, clearly having no intention of making a move.
Behind the purple-robed man was a young girl in purple, looking to be seventeen or eighteen, with curved eyebrows and eyes brimming with spirit, appearing even more moving under the moonlight.
The ones intercepting Yan Ruyu were none other than the siblings Ji Haoyue and Ji Ziyue and their party.
Ji Haoyue was a man who loved to show off; his expression was calm as he said softly, "My Divine Body has just been formed, and hearing that the descendants of the Demon Emperor are here, I have come specifically to challenge you."
A look of mockery flashed in the old woman's eyes, but she said coldly, "My Princess is unwell and cannot fight; please reschedule your challenge for another day."
Ji Haoyue's words were very gentle, like a spring breeze blowing across one's face, as he said, "Since that is the case, I shall not force it, but please leave behind the Demon Emperor Sacred Weapon. Since my Divine Body was formed, there are few divine weapons in the world that I fancy, and I lack a handy weapon."
The old woman said coldly, "The Demon Emperor Sacred Weapon has been lost for ten thousand years; I fear you will be disappointed to ask us for it."
Ji Haoyue's tone remained gentle, possessing the composure of one in control of the whole situation, as he said, "A straightforward person does not speak in riddles; we are all very clear about whether the Qing Di Weapon is in your hands or not. If you do not leave the Qing Di Weapon tonight, I fear you will not be able to leave."
"Fine, fine, then let me see what kind of ability you, this Divine Body, actually have!"
As the old woman finished speaking, she spat out a ray of light from her mouth, shaped like a willow leaf, silvery and bright, slashing toward Ji Haoyue.
Ji Haoyue did not move at all, still standing with his hands behind his back, his sleeves fluttering.
But the next moment, everyone was greatly shocked.
They saw the night sky suddenly descend, turning dim, and behind him appeared an extremely strange scene: a vast blue sea surging, and a bright, clear moon rising slowly, casting down holy silver radiance.
"The Moon Rises Over the Sea!"
"This is the Sea of Wheels manifestation of an ancient Great Power; he has actually cultivated it! He is truly worthy of being a Divine Body!"
That bright, clear moon instantly froze the old woman's Willow Leaf Divine Weapon, turning it into dust in an instant, and then the holy moon rotated; the old woman could not even let out a groan before she turned into a mist of blood, her body and spirit destroyed.
Under the night sky, the blue sea rippled, a bright, clear moon hung in the sky, and Ji Haoyue stood with his hands behind his back, never having moved once, looking indescribably detached and ethereal, man and scenery blending together, like a poem or a painting.
"Chen Po!"
Yan Ruyu cried out in grief, a fierce look flashing in her bright, beautiful eyes.
The others also felt grief, but not one of them had any intention of retreating; instead, their fighting spirit grew even higher.
"Leave the Qing Di Weapon, and I will let you leave!"
Ji Haoyue stood facing the wind, the tide rising and falling behind him, his voice still calm.
Yin Qi, who had already arrived nearby, saw this and could not help but mutter to himself; he truly is the number one poser of Shrouding the Heavens.
Yan Ruyu said coldly, "Do you really think you can stop us? Your Ji Family also has an Emperor Weapon, why covet the Emperor Weapon of our Demon Race? Furthermore, even if it were given to you, could your Ji Family hold onto it? Do you truly think my Demon Race has no one?"
Ji Haoyue smiled serenely, "Who would complain about having too many Emperor Weapons? As for whether it can be held, that is a matter for my Ji Family. The Demon Race has long since declined, and now the whole world is looking for you."
"Meeting me is actually your good fortune."
"I do not wish to commit unnecessary slaughter; I only want to obtain what I desire."
"But if you insist on putting up a desperate struggle, then I can only fulfill your wish."
"That will depend on how much ability you have!"
Yan Ruyu snorted coldly, she took a step forward, and an extraordinary phenomenon appeared behind her, the sea and sky becoming one color.
The sky was like a sapphire, and the blue waves were like a bright mirror.
Stalk after stalk of golden lotus grew out from the sea, the lotus leaves dotted with dewdrops, vibrant with life and dazzlingly brilliant, standing in opposition to Ji Haoyue's Sea Rises with the Mingyue, competing against each other.
This is the extraordinary phenomenon Bitter Sea Plants Golden Lotus.
"Leave quickly!"
Yan Ruyu shouted sharply.
She intended to face Ji Haoyue and the others alone, covering the retreat for Qin Yao and the others.
"Your Highness!"
Qin Yao and the others cried out in sorrow, but they also knew this was no time to dawdle.
If they stayed behind, they would only drag Yan Ruyu down.
In terms of cultivation, Yan Ruyu was the strongest among them, and she also possessed the Qing Di Weapon.
Without them to hold her back, retreating calmly would not be a problem.
Consequently, they all turned their heads and fled.
But how could the Ji Family members let them have their way? A dozen or so Ji Family members nearby saw this and all charged up to kill.
Boom!
A dozen or so Ji Family members and a dozen or so members of the Demon Race were soon locked in a bloody battle.
At this moment, Ji Haoyue also made his move.
He activated his extraordinary phenomenon, and the silver moon cast down countless rays of clear radiance, all of which were caught by the golden lotus, emitting bursts of clanging sounds.
Bitter Sea Plants Golden Lotus and Sea Rises with the Mingyue are both Sea of Wheels extraordinary phenomena of ancient Great Powers, and few people in the present world can cultivate them.
Ji Haoyue's expression changed slightly, and a look of excitement appeared in his eyes.
He took a large stride forward, fast as lightning, and the bright moon behind him also descended, carrying an incomparably terrifying momentum and filled with endless killing intent.
Yan Ruyu's figure was plain and hazy, she was elegant and refined, and the golden lotus behind her swayed, full of vitality.
Clusters of golden exotic flowers bloomed in the wind, emitting a refreshing fragrance, and the golden lotus petals shot up into the sky, sparkling and translucent, instantly submerging that bright moon.
