Chapter 536 Kunpeng Didn't Come to Congratulate Us
It's not hard to imagine what would happen to them if Hong Laozu removed the protective shield at this moment.
Despite the terrifying environment, the patriarch could move freely, and the red-hot rocks beneath his feet seemed to cause him no harm whatsoever.
Just as the patriarch threw something into a three-zhang-tall, four-legged cauldron.
Mu Zhen witnessed firsthand how the earth, which had been bright with the blazing sun, was being swallowed up by shadows little by little.
About five seconds later, not a single ray of light could be found in the entire East District. Perhaps the distance had spread even further, but Mu Zhen couldn't see that far.
All the pedestrians on the city streets, like Mu Zhen, looked up at the sky in a daze.
At first, everyone thought it was a once-in-a-millennium solar eclipse, but when they saw the dark clouds covering the sky, they realized it might be a peak-level expert undergoing tribulation.
Only when one advances to the Mahayana stage can such a grand spectacle be generated.
"Wait a minute, the three major urban areas in the west, south, and north are all dark now. Is this... an ascension tribulation?"
"Nonsense. Only Ancestor Hong and Ancestor Zhu in the Demon City have reached that level, but they are not people from the secret realm."
If they want to ascend, they can only return to their respective continents; this is definitely not an ascension tribulation!
It's not that I'm ignorant, but that in the history of Demon City, no Dao artifact has ever been born. Who in Demon City, besides the five Mahayana Ancestors, possesses a Dao artifact?
None of the five ancestors were natives of the secret realm; they all came from the outside world, and the artifacts they brought were naturally brought from there as well.
'boom! ’
A loud bang shocked the entire city.
One of the Huo family members screamed, "Oh no! Why is our ancestor coming out of seclusion at this time?" In his eyesight, our ancestor had not yet reached the point of breaking through.
If they are alerted and forced to leave their seclusion now, wouldn't their previous three hundred years of seclusion have been in vain?
A black-haired old man dressed as a Taoist priest emerged from the dilapidated house of the Huo family's cultivation sanctuary and sped away without hesitation, heading towards the Yuan family's territory.
Those who witnessed the birth of the Dao artifact exclaimed with envy, "The Yuan family has actually created a Dao artifact!"
"What? A Dao artifact? You mean this strange phenomenon indicates the descent of a Dao artifact?"
"Not bad!"
"My God, no way? It's said that no Dao artifact has ever appeared in the Demon City before!"
"The Yuan family's resources are terrifying!"
"What's wrong with Demon City lately? It keeps causing strange phenomena in the heavens and earth."
Wanqi Yunyan, who was searching for Huangfu Zique throughout the city: ...
His brows were furrowed and tightly knit.
He stared coldly at the dark sky, a fierce glint in his eyes.
The Yuan family is quite capable; even Zhu Yue will likely find it difficult to challenge this old man in the future.
The gap between the middle stage of Mahayana Buddhism and the peak of the later stage is indeed as vast as an insurmountable chasm, but it is not insurmountable.
Dao artifacts are like a bridge that bridges the gap between two sides. A Mahayana cultivator in the early stages who wields a Dao artifact can fight against a Mahayana cultivator in the late stages who wields an Emperor weapon.
Two Dao artifacts... No one in the world can rival them.
Of course, it can only be achieved by combining two types of artifacts, one for offense and one for defense. This should be a defensive artifact, right?
After all, the elder already possessed a Dao weapon.
Taking a deep breath, he had no choice but to follow them personally to investigate the truth, because the Yuan family had a protective array that could block divine sense from probing.
Zhu Yue, who was meditating in her cave, slowly opened her eyes and murmured to herself, "Finally, I have the chance to witness the power of a Dao artifact when it is born!" After saying that, she moved and appeared on the mountaintop.
He stretched out his hand: "It feels so good to be out of the sun!"
Just in case, he opened the umbrella, without tearing through the void, and moved forward step by step.
They were truly climbing mountains with every step, their speed was astonishing.
Since Zhu Yue was born, no one in her realm has ever crafted a Dao artifact, so she has never had the opportunity to witness the power of a hundred Heavenly Tribulations.
“Wanqi Yunyan!” Mu Zhen glanced at a certain spot on the mountaintop.
Everyone immediately surrounded Huangfu Zique in the middle.
Huangfu Zique's expectation was instantly replaced by disgust. They were both in disguise at the moment, but it shouldn't have fooled Wanqi Yunyan's eyes.
Wanqi Yunyan and Elder Huo Liu, who had just arrived, also saw Mu Zhen and the others.
His eyes were full of joy; it really came without any effort at all!
That kid actually stayed with Old Master Hong the whole time.
However, what they want to know more about now is what kind of thing is inside the cauldron; they hope it's not a defensive magic weapon.
Then the Demon City will truly be reshuffled.
Within minutes, the valley floor was filled with people.
Needless to say, the five top-tier forces are numerous, and the remaining second- and third-tier forces number in the tens of thousands.
And there were also many independent people from all walks of life who came to gain experience; the crowds were immense.
Those who can stand atop a top-grade fire vein and survive must be at least at the Nascent Soul stage.
This shows just how many experts are gathered in Huangtian Demon City.
The Yuan family's various weapon refiners dared not get too close and could only stand behind Patriarch Hong.
"Our ancestor has actually forged a Dao artifact!"
"Hahaha, the prestige of my Yuan family's weapon refiners is about to rise to another level!"
The Yuan family had never been so excited. The first Dao artifact in the history of the Demon City came from their Yuan family.
This is a magnificent deed that will be recorded in history and passed down through the ages.
Above the valley, the clouds of calamity accumulated more and more, and then, as if a giant hand was stirring the clouds, the gray sea of clouds suddenly began to swirl like a vortex.
As a blinding flash of lightning illuminated the scene, people finally glimpsed the enormous fish-like shape swimming freely among the cumulus clouds.
'Woo~'
The deep, long chant echoed across the earth, like a distant echo, mysterious and profound.
"What a huge fish that blots out the sky! No wonder the city is so dark; it's not entirely due to the calamity clouds."
"How could there be a fish there? And how could a fish grow so big?"
People were suspicious.
Zhu Yue glanced at Old Ancestor Huo beside her, and said with a confident smile, "It's Kun!"
"Cry~"
Lightning struck again, and people saw that the fish had instantly transformed into a gigantic golden roc, spreading its wings and soaring through the sky.
Old Ancestor Huo raised an eyebrow: "You guessed wrong, it's Kunpeng!"
"The phantom image of Kunpeng has come to offer congratulations. What kind of divine weapon has Senior Yuan forged?" Zhu Yue asked curiously.
As the first massive bolt of purple lightning struck down from the sky, the object inside the cauldron shot straight into the heavens before everyone's eyes, heading directly at the bolt of lightning that, once it hit the ground, would destroy the entire fire vein.
Seeing how sensible it was, the ancestor breathed a small sigh of relief, hoping it wouldn't burn down his family's fire vein.
They were not afraid that the artifact would not be able to withstand the lightning tribulation and would fall down.
I've never heard of any Dao artifact that couldn't withstand a lightning tribulation.
How could a celestial object be destroyed by a tribulation in the mortal realm?
Only when the Emperor Kunqin collided with the heavenly lightning did people see clearly what it was.
琴？
Didn't the Ancestor already have a Dao-level weapon? Why did he need to forge another one? Wouldn't it be better to make a defensive one?
The four major families all smiled at the same time, exclaiming, "Great weapon! Hahaha!"
One person can only wield one of these main weapons at a time.
"Hey, the Kunpeng phantom isn't here to offer congratulations, it... it belongs to this zither!" someone exclaimed.
