Chapter 467: The Cang Yuan System
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ruler-level martialists had superb control over their emotions, so they were able to remain emotionless even when a situation was grave. However, the Blood Thunder Ruler’s expression made Luo Yunyang feel instinctively worried.
He swiftly turned on his communication device and immediately saw a piece of news on the public section of the Meru Realm.
“Luo Yunyang has displayed a cultivation beyond the limits of the human race. I think that he must have acquired some sort of G.o.dly, mystic technique from the Extreme Mysterious Realm!”
“The Extreme Mysterious Realm belongs to the entire human race, not just to Luo Yunyang. He should publicize what he learned while he was there and allow human cultivation to improve even further.”
Although the content of the post was short, a thought grew in Luo Yunyang’s mind when he saw it. The writer’s motive was appalling.
Although the person who had posted this didn’t seem strong, he was able to provoke other people in the Nine Paths into making a move against Luo Yunyang.
The other Eight Paths had teamed up because of this post, which put immense pressure on Luo Yunyang.
“Rulers, what do you think?” Although Luo Yunyang was irritated, he still remembered his manners and asked the two rulers for their opinion.
“I’ve already reported the matter to the Path Master,” the Blood Thunder Ruler said gravely. “He says that you do not have to worry about this. He will handle it.”
Luo Yunyang was stunned by the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master’s reply. He had not thought of this.
Somewhere else, on a bustling, lively planet, a handsome middle-aged man slowly raised his wine cup.
He was a Nebula-Grade martialist from the Deep Earth Path, as well as the leader of the planet he was on. He was also considered a prominent figure in the entire galaxy.
The man was currently feeling very proud of himself. Although he wasn’t acquainted with Luo Yunyang, he was very jealous of that lucky b*stard. Of course, he had also hoped to obtain the knowledge Luo Yunyang had acquired in the Extreme Mysterious Realm.
Once he was able to force Luo Yunyang to announce what he had found in the Extreme Mysterious Realm, he was confident that he would obtain a piece of that inherited knowledge. When he did, as long as he spread it…
The man was burning with pa.s.sion as he imagined the benefits he would enjoy.
“Sir De Yun, why are you in such a good mood today?” a lady in a light yellow dress asked gently.
De Yun glanced at the lady, feeling very pleased with himself. He smiled candidly as he said, “Something good has happened.”
As he spoke, De Yun extended his hands towards the lady’s curvaceous body and caressed her gently. “Sages live leisurely, while fools work hard. Do you know what this means?”
This lady was no ordinary woman. She could read body language very well. When she saw De Yun’s delight, she didn’t want to annoy him. Thus, she deliberately pretended to be ignorant and feigned anger coquettishly. “How would I know? I hope you will enlighten a young lady like me!”
De Yun was feeling increasingly proud of himself. The lady in front of him was a stunning, unforgettable beauty. Not only was she pleasant to look at, but she was also kind and considerate. Her every frown and smile, even her wrinkled brows, made Deyun feel like he was scratching an itch.
It was in De Yun’s nature to fancy this kind of meek, helpless woman who seemed a little silly. Just as he was about to explain everything to her in detail, someone said, “Of course I understand what it means.”
Startled, De Yun immediately jumped, observing carefully his surroundings before he said sternly, “Who is it? Who are you?”
“You must know my ident.i.ty. I’m a clan head of the Acute Metal Path. If you dare harm me, I…”
“There’s no need to bring your Path Master into this. I will record a video while killing you and send it to your Path Master later.”
The man spoke like he was in control of everything as he made his way forward slowly.
Although his steps seemed very leisurely, he had already approached De Yun. De Yun felt like a small bug facing a devastating opponent.
His heart was shaking, while his entire body was trembling in fear.
One could even say that he was scared sh*tless, as he had lost control of his own trembling body.
“You’re a ruler, so why lower yourself to my level? Besides, if you were planning to do anything to me, you’d face the wrath of the entire Acute Metal Path, you…” De Yun, who was really afraid for his life, waved his hands frantically in an effort to convince that frightening individual.
The man looked at De Yun before smiling coldly. With a gentle sweep of his hand, De Yun was instantly beheaded.
Meanwhile, an image of De Yun’s corpse with his eyes wide open appeared below the post he had made in the virtual world.
The man who had murdered De Yun had no intention of hiding or saying a word.
However, the people who had originally asked the entire human race to demand that Luo Yunyang hands over the inheritance of the Extreme Mysterious Realm disappeared silently in shock.
Although De Yun’s picture had been posted anonymously, every elite in the galaxy was able to rely on certain clues and trails to discover De Yun’s ident.i.ty.
This strong suppression made many people feel slightly more afraid deep down. They knew that if they stirred up any waves, they could end up like De Yun.
Some top-ranking martialists recognized the ident.i.ty of the murderer. However, not only did they dare not expose him, but they actually humbly tried to cover this up.
Half a day later, almost all the people who had tried to use the power of the ma.s.ses to pressure Luo Yunyang had stopped talking and leaving comments.
Most people no longer dared even have such thoughts.
When Luo Yunyang naturally saw the video, he realized that the person who had murdered De Yun was the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master. His respect for the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master intensified after this.
Luo Yunyang clearly needed such a tough, unyielding att.i.tude. If the person who had made this move had been weaker, not only would they have failed to suppress the ma.s.ses, but they could also have suffered a severe backlash.
However, because it was the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master who had made the move, no one dared voice their objections.
Hence, the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master became the limit that Luo Yunyang was about to surpa.s.s.
Luo Yunyang’s combat abilities would probably be able to reach a level similar to the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master’s after breaking through to the Nebula-Grade Realm.
With the a.s.sistance of the Blood Thunder Ruler, Luo Yunyang arrived quickly to the Blood Spirit Sky and finally saw his mother Shen Yunying and Luo Dong’er, who was nearly an adult now.
Thanks to the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path’s spiritual medicine, Shen Yunying looked even younger than she had before.
Luo Dong’er, on the other hand, had ditched her playful nature. She looked much colder now.
Although she was still playfully pa.s.sionate with her brother, Luo Yunyang could obviously sense that his sister had changed.
Besides doting on her, Luo Yunyang was also determined to ensure that his sister would no longer suffer any grievances.
As he thought about meeting up with the Flame Emperor and the Eagle King, he felt both sadness and joy. The Eagle King and everyone else had been evacuated by the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path in advance and had thus escaped the Five-Element Sovereign’s persecution.
However, they knew very well what had happened to the Da Alliance after their departure. Although they resented these events, they felt more helpless than ever.
Fortunately, Luo Yunyang had already killed the Five-Element Sovereign, so they would be able to return to the Da Alliance after meeting him.
This wasn’t really a conversation, but a good drinking session. A sentiment rose in Luo Yunyang’s heart as he watched the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p depart. He felt that, although he was still able to hang out with the Flame Emperor and everyone else, an insurmountable gap already existed between them.
This gap kept developing as Luo Yunyang’s cultivation base rose along with the changes in his status. Even if Luo Yunyang wanted to change and prevent this from happening, it would be impossible for him to do so. Luo Yunyang couldn’t help but sigh. It was really lonely being at the top.
“You’re still at the Star-Grade!” The b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master sounded emotional when he saw Luo Yunyang for the first time in years.
Luo Yunyang nodded his head. He had nothing to hide in front of the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master.
“Good, good, good… If you killed the Nebula-Grade Five-Element Sovereign while still being at the Star-Grade, your natural apt.i.tude definitely isn’t any weaker than the geniuses nurtured by the Demi-G.o.d Tribe.”
When he mentioned the Demi-G.o.d Tribe, a slightly bitter look appeared in the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master’s eyes.
Even though the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master was able to hide it, Luo Yunyang was still able to see it.
Doubt suddenly filled Luo Yunyang’s heart. He had gradually become part of the upper level of the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path, so he knew all about certain matters regarding the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path and the entire human race were part of the Divine Union, which was led by the Demi-G.o.d Tribe.
Thus, they could be considered a part of the Divine Union.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master was not a narrow-minded person. However, the way he talked about the Demi-G.o.d Tribe naturally betrayed the extent of his hatred.
“Path Master, are we able to challenge the different paths in order to view their Sky Books?” Luo Yunyang asked eagerly as he pushed aside his suspicion.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path looked at Luo Yunyang and replied with a smile, “No one would be a match for you if you challenged them. However, the rules only allow five partic.i.p.ants!”
The b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master’s words made Luo Yunyang’s heart s.h.i.+ver. He knew that what the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master had said was true.
If he were to partic.i.p.ate in the challenge along with Yang Shang and everyone else, could the others win like he could?
Would they instead be giving away this opportunity to other people?
However, after studying the various secrets of the Origin Source Laws, Luo Yunyang knew that this was also an opportunity for him to improve.
The reason he had not broken through to the Nebula-Grade was also because he wanted to read the Sky Books.
“It would not be impossible for you to read the Sky Books of the other paths. However, that would involve a rather dangerous plan.”
When he saw Luo Yunyang’s disappointed expression, the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master extended his hand and tapped his communication device. Immediately, a message appeared on the screen in the palace hall.
“This is the Cang Yuan System’s Gold Horn Crystal Collection. 100 pieces for six months of viewing the Sky Books of all the Nine Paths.”
Luo Yunyang’s eyes s.h.i.+fted a little when he read these words.
“Path Master, is the Cang Yuan System a safe place?”
“Of course not. It is actually considered extremely dangerous!” the b.l.o.o.d.y Ma.s.sacre Path Master said seriously. “Otherwise, the other paths wouldn’t have been willing to give up such a precious opportunity!”
“I’ll choose it then!” Luo Yunyang said right away.
