Chapter 1773: Carved Vajra
Of course, Wu Yu would not kill these immortal emperors. To him, they were bargaining chips to be exchanged for Wu You"s safety.
Therefore, he held them all with Nightmare Praying Art and then deposited all of them in his Devouring Apotheosis Realm.
As long as Wu Yu did not die, they could not come out.
This was what he would bring to the bargaining table against the Jade Emperor.
Just as Wu Yu was about to head for the Well of Eternal Life and head upwards, a gigantic vajra circle appeared.
The vajra circle caged the entire area, locking down the entire level of Heaven.
Even Wu Yu could not get out of it for the moment.
His face darkened. Evidently some super powerful immortal emperor had arrived to oppose him.
Who could it be?
He faced the sparkling vajra circle, and saw an elite immortal emperor emerge. Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, Taishang Laojun!
"Wu Yu, turn back before it"s too late!"
Grand Supreme Elderly Lord cried. He counseled Wu Yu with a yearning plea; "If you go to the Jade Emperor of your own accord, there might still be hope! Don"t lose yourself! You know it"s impossible to make the entire of the sky palaces your enemy."
Seeing Grand Supreme Elderly Lord, Wu Yu said in a low voice: "There will be no happy ending for me if I go to see the Jade Emperor. I not only won"t be able to save my sister, but I"ll probably join her right in Heaven"s Prison!"
He did not want to see Wu You hurt. At the same time, he had to protect himself.
All of the others" safety depended on him. If he died, all of it would be out of his control. At that time, not just Wu You, but probably Luo Pin, Full Moon of Nanshan, and Ye Xixi would all be trapped!
That was why Wu Yu had to move with caution. First he would trap the immortal emperors in his own Devouring Apotheosis Realm. At least now he had something to bargain with.
Seeing Wu Yu"s att.i.tude, Grand Supreme Elderly Lord had no other choice. "If that"s your choice, this humble man can only cause offense."
He lifted his hand and pulled out an epochal immortal treasure!
It was a golden bracelet called Carved Vajra. It was a special epochal immortal treasure.
Wu Yu had no idea how strong Carved Vajra was. He put up his Ruyi Jingu Bang warily.
He felt that since he could already defeat those of Yang Jian and Nezha"s level, then against Grand Supreme Elderly Lord he should be able to defend for at least a while.
If he could even subdue Grand Supreme Elderly Lord with the Nightmare Praying Art, then his bargaining buffer would be even greater when he went to confront the Jade Emperor.
But he had underestimated the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord.
"Pillar of the Skies!"
Wu Yu used Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to grow to his maximum size. He hefted his Ruyi Jingu Bang and swung it with all his might at Grand Supreme Elderly Lord.
This staff rumbled the entire level of Heaven with the weight of its power!
"Stop!"
The Grand Pure One did not even flinch.
With a calm expression, he hurled the Carved Vajra bracelet treasure forth. It grew larger in midair, and caught the Ruyi Jingu Bang within it.
Wu Yu could feel that he had lost control over it.
By the time he sensed trouble, it was too late to recall the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
He could only watch as the Ruyi Jingu Bang sped away from him!
"What?"
Wu Yu was thunderstruck.
What a magical weapon Grand Supreme Elderly Lord had! He could even take away the Ruyi Jingu Bang!
Wu Yu faced him bare-handed. He felt almost naked.
"The Carved Vajra can take away all weapons. Wu Yu, will you not surrender now?"
Grand Supreme Elderly Lord said mildly. He called back the Carved Vajra, which shrank again in his hands.
Wu Yu could not see where the Ruyi Jingu Bang had gone. But it was not with him, so Grand Supreme Elderly Lord must be holding on to it.
Still, it was impossible that Wu Yu would just give up like that.
Even without the Ruyi Jingu Bang, he would not surrender.
He changed shape again, into the form of the Heaven Devouring t.i.tanic Beast this time. He would continue fighting like that.
"Devour!"
Wu Yu roared, leaping towards the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord.
But seeing this, Grand Supreme Elderly Lord again flung out Carved Vajra.
Wu Yu could feel Carved Vajra collar his Heaven Devouring Avatar, and he was suddenly disabled thoroughly. He was paralyzed.
"Somersault Cloud!"
Wu Yu wanted to call his Somersault Cloud Mystique, but he realized that he could not.
He gritted his teeth. So this was the skill of the most powerful. It was indeed still something to fear. He had not antic.i.p.ated it.
He was well and truly caught now.
In truth, he had not stood a chance from the moment Grand Supreme Elderly Lord had appeared.
However, he had wanted to make one last desperate gamble. It hada failed.
"Come with me to Lingxiao Palace!"
Just like this, Taishang Laojun pulled Wu Yu along with him.
He stepped into the Well of Eternal Life and hastened upwards.
Wu Yu had not given up even after being collared by Carved Vajra. He struggled and struggled, trying to sumon Somersault Cloud. But nothing he did worked.
Still, there was no fear in him, only a hatred of the Jade Emperor.
The ruler of the entire Heavenly Domain had kidnapped a mortal to threaten him. It was a joke.
Within his Devouring Apotheosis Realm was Nezha, Yang Jian, Li Jing, and many other important officials. That was the final card Wu Yu held!
In his Devouring Apotheosis Realm, their life and death were in his hands.
He did not believe that the Jade Emperor would dismiss their lives so easily.
Before long, Wu Yu and Grand Supreme Elderly Lord had come to Southern Gate of Heaven.
They pa.s.sed through to Lingxiao Palace, the highest point in the sky palaces!
