Checking In for Sixty Years, From Puppet Emperor to Heavenly Emperor – Chapter 63

Ch 63: Black-Robed Identity

In the Ethereal Abode study at night, Hua Wuyue happened to be there, asking Shu Yao and the others about cultivation problems with the Hundred Flowers Flying Picture.

In terms of calculation, Shu Yao and the Four Ethereal Maidens and Hua Ling’er are the closest, one is the spirit of flowers, and the other is the spirit born of Immortal Treasure, but Hua Ling’er has a physical body, while the Immortal Spirit is just a spirit body.

As soon as Zhou An arrived, the five women stood up. Zhou An waved his hand and said, “There are no outsiders here, no need to care about these things. I’m here to ask, if the hands and feet are completely eaten away by zombies, is there any way to regenerate them?”

Hua Wuyue was surprised and shook her head directly, saying, “No, we can resolve the corpse poison, but to regenerate limbs, unless you find an Immortal Herb that can regenerate the body.”

Shu Yao said, “I heard Ethereal Fairy mention before that there are people who refine Magic Treasure to replace hands and feet, but most of them are unorthodox methods, and the Ethereal Abode does not record them.”

Xing Yan suddenly said, “Actually, the evil sect’s soul-shifting method is also feasible, but this kind of spell is basically despised by the Righteous Path.”

Hua Wuyue frowned, but now she can’t be considered a member of a famous and upright sect, so she didn’t object.

Zhou An sat down and said, “This time, the Brocade Guard deserves the most credit for finding the whereabouts of the Black-Robed Man. I will not abandon them after giving them some silver. There are no evil spells in the world, only evil people.

As long as they can stand up, these are nothing. Do you know where to find this kind of spell?”

“I remember hearing my master say before that the Righteous Oneness Sect seniors once used some kind of spell to regenerate the broken arms of their disciples, but this senior has already ascended, and I don’t know if this Immortal Art still exists.” Hua Wuyue said.

“Refining hand and foot Magic Treasure can be inquired from the heretical path, this should not be difficult.” Qin Yu said.

Zhou An nodded to show he understood.

Three days later, in a mountain village deep in East Sun Mountain, everything here has been arranged, and the Brocade Guard are disguised as Jianghu travelers here.

Zhang Niu was still raising corpses as usual. At this time, a cloud of black air flew into the living room and revealed the Black-Robed Man.

Zhang Niu saw him and immediately came out and knelt down, saying, “Greetings, Master.”

He scanned the place and looked at Zhang Niu, who had become fat, and asked, “Why did you change your body so quickly?”

“There was a problem with the last body.” Zhang Niu was slightly nervous, and his body couldn’t help but tremble. After all, he was now harming his master in conjunction with the Brocade Guard. He knew the Black-Robed Man’s ferocity, so how could he not be afraid.

The Black-Robed Man saw his appearance, suddenly stretched out his hand, and black air wrapped around Zhang Niu’s body. He questioned in a cold voice, “Say, what are you hiding from me?”

“The bodies of these Jianghu travelers can’t withstand the Black Flame Demonic Sha for long, why don’t you consider the bodies of Innate Cultivators.” Suddenly a voice came from outside, and then a white light flashed, and Zhou An stood at the door.

The black smoke on the Black-Robed Man surged, and with a pinch of his right hand, Zhang Niu, who was wrapped in black air, was instantly swallowed by the black smoke. He only let out a scream, and sparks emerged from the black smoke, and the person turned to ashes.

“It was my negligence that you found this place from the corpse. This time there is no Immortal Treasure painting, you are seeking death.” The black smoke on the Black-Robed Man’s body surged, with a dark red flame, and soon the living room was covered by black smoke.

“Are you sure this is not a world in the painting?” Zhou An smiled and withdrew from the courtyard.

The surrounding environment changed into a desert, and the manor all disappeared. The Black-Robed Man was so angry at this scene that the black smoke rolled on his body, and flames spewed out from the black smoke.

He was tricked again and again, and he felt that his lungs were about to explode. He directly transformed into a black tornado, and a wave of fire swept in the wind.

Zhou An flew up and formed the Vajra Demon Subduing Seal with both hands. Golden light fell, but it was swallowed and disappeared when it touched the black whirlwind.

“Hmph, you want to deal with my Black Flame Demonic Sha with a mere Vajra Demon Subduing Mantra. This time, I will capture you, the Emperor.” The Black-Robed Man laughed, and the black flame whirlwind rushed over.

Zhou An flew back, and when the other party approached him, suddenly formations appeared in the sky and on the ground. Then, completely silently, demons and monsters appeared, surrounding the black whirlwind.

These Demon Souls were able to devour the Demonic Sha. The Black-Robed Man instantly lost his previous momentum and shouted in a panic, “Ten Thousand Demons Banner? Ten Thousand Demons King!”

“Haha, you know this Demon King’s name, why don’t you obediently kneel down and surrender? Maybe this King will be happy and let you be a younger brother.” Ten Thousand Demons King appeared from the air, holding a dark green banner in his hand.

At the same time, Hua Wuyue appeared on the other side, and together with Zhou An, the three formed a triangle, surrounding the Black-Robed Man in the middle.

“Now, Your Excellency can reveal your true face. In the world within the painting, plus the three of us, do you think you can still run?” Zhou An said with a smile.

The Black-Robed Man became angry from embarrassment. The other party was using his desire to save face and eagerly recover the embarrassment of the last time. He rushed out and broke into the Ten Thousand Demons King’s Ten Thousand Demons Grand Formation. This time, even an Innate Tenth Level expert would probably have difficulty escaping.

Unwilling to give up, the black whirlwind shrank back, and the cloak on his body shattered, revealing his true face, which was actually wearing the Great Ancestor Mask.

“The Great Ancestor Emperor’s mask?” Zhou An was shocked. He was too familiar with this thing, he had one on his body.

“Hmph, that’s right, I am the Great Ancestor Emperor. Zhou An, you are my descendant. As long as you rely on me, you are still the Great Qian Emperor.” The Great Ancestor Emperor said loudly.

“Zhou An, he has entered the Demon.” Hua Wuyue reminded.

“Haha, Demon, that’s right. Back then, I relied on my own comprehension to create the Innate Universe Art, but these Righteous Path people sealed the cultivation method. I know very little about cultivating Immortality. I still failed the Triple Heavenly Tribulation. I hate these hypocritical Righteous Path people. Why can everyone in the world cultivate, but I, the Founding Emperor, cannot.

Back then, I knelt down and begged the Righteous Oneness Sect, and even gave up the throne, but they closed their doors and refused to accept me. In terms of aptitude, those inner disciples are not as good as me. Why? It was I who gave the world peace. I am not reconciled. I want these Righteous Path people to pay the price for what they did back then. Within my Great Qian, even Cultivators have to kneel down and call me Emperor.”

The Great Ancestor Emperor spoke out his inner hatred, his face became ferocious, and Demonic Light flashed in his eyes.

“So you provoked the Righteous-Demonic War, but why did you drag the Imperial Palace into it?” Zhou An asked.

“Hmph, you pretended to be Zhou Nan, do you think I don’t know? You are too close to the Righteous Path, and your growth is too abnormal, becoming an Uncertain Factor, so you must be eliminated.

However, you let the Ten Thousand Demons King become the Demon Suppression Chief, which made me wonder if you have really become a running dog of the Righteous Path, so I entered the Imperial Palace to test you.

You did not participate in the Righteous-Demonic War, which proved that you are not on the side of the Righteous Path. On the contrary, it made me curious, what exactly do you rely on to make Hundred Flowers Valley, Ten Thousand Demons King, and Ethereal Abode follow you.

What do you rely on to have such cultivation in a short period of time? Why did I spend three hundred years, and in the end, I still have to fall into the hands of a yellow-mouthed child who has not even grown all his hair.”

The Great Ancestor Emperor was first curious about how Zhou An did it. As he spoke, he was occupied by jealousy, and his Demonic nature became heavier.

This was also his biggest doubt. He knew too well how difficult it was for an Emperor to cultivate Immortality.

Both the Righteous Path and the Heretical Path sealed the cultivation methods from the Imperial Family, and the Demonic Path dismissed the Imperial Family. If it weren’t for the protection of the Righteous Path, the Imperial Palace might have been slaughtered by the Demonic Path long ago.

Moreover, even if there is a cultivation method, there are countless court affairs, and there is no time to cultivate at all. Back then, in order to cultivate, he passed on the affairs of the court to the Crown Prince early, so that he had time to comprehend the Innate Universe Art.

“It’s just a gift from God.” Zhou An spread his hands and said.

“B*llshit, this damn God is the most evil existence in the world.”

The more the Great Ancestor Emperor spoke, the stronger his Demonic nature became. The three hundred years of resentment and unwillingness erupted at this time. A sky full of black air rushed out of his body, surrounding his main body, turning into a black smoke giant with a pair of long horns growing on his forehead, and flames emerging from his eyes and mouth.

“Completely demonized, kill.” Hua Wuyue shouted, flew over, formed a seal with her right hand, and the Ten Thousand Flowers Mystic Light Sword shot out from her palm, turning into a pillar of light composed of petals and flowing light, rushing towards the Great Ancestor Demon Body.

The Great Ancestor Demon Body let out a roar, and its huge left palm grabbed towards Hua Wuyue in the air. It was hit in the palm by the Ten Thousand Flowers Mystic Light Sword, and countless petals crashed into the palm like missiles, causing an explosion.

However, what exploded was not flames, but Sword Qi Mystic Light. The Great Ancestor Demon Body’s palm was blasted into Demonic Sha black air, and it collapsed in clumps.

The Ten Thousand Demons King took back the Ten Thousand Demons Banner, which was useless against this kind of Demon Body. He opened his mouth and flew out a strange blue blade, turning into a hundred-meter-long dark blue blade light, slashing towards the Great Ancestor Demon Body.

The blade light hit his back, tearing open a gash, and Demonic Qi leaked out from inside.

Zhou An’s Son of Heaven Sword flew out, turning into a Crimson Dragon and crashing into the Great Ancestor Demon Body, leaving sword marks dozens of meters long each time.

The Great Ancestor Demon Body waved its huge hands and chased after the three of them, but the three of them were all very fast, and all the attacks missed, instead smashing the sandy land into a collapse. Fortunately, it was sandy land. If it were ordinary ground, it would have been smashed into a post-earthquake appearance long ago.

The three of them circled around the Great Ancestor Demon Body, dodging and attacking with flying swords, causing the Great Ancestor Demon Body to roar again and again.

But complete demonization will lead to loss of reason, only knowing destruction, and not knowing how to change tactics.

After enduring dozens of flying sword attacks, the Great Ancestor Demon Body roared and spewed out a black air column from its mouth, which was also mixed with sparks.

The Ten Thousand Demons King turned his body and turned into a giant Jiao more than a hundred meters long. The snake scales resisted the black air column, burning the snake scales red and blackening a large area.

The giant Jiao also used the horn on its head to hit the Great Ancestor Demon God from the mouth, knocking him to the ground.

Hua Wuyue formed a seal with both hands, and countless flowers and plants grew on the sandy land, shooting out flower vines to entangle the Great Ancestor Demon Body.

Zhou An took the opportunity to point his hand at the Great Ancestor Demon Body, and a white Mystic Light fell, touching the Great Ancestor Demon Body. Soon he stopped struggling, and his body quickly froze, along with the surrounding flowers and plants.

In just three seconds, the entire area within five hundred meters of the Great Ancestor Demon Body turned into ice.

Zhou An didn’t expect the Mystic Ice Divine Light to be so powerful. This was the first time he used it. With his 2400 years of cultivation, this Divine Power consumed about one-third of his True Energy.

“As expected of an Immortal-Rank spell, it’s too domineering!” Zhou An was secretly surprised, and so were the Ten Thousand Demons King and Hua Wuyue beside him.

Although the Great Ancestor Emperor is currently an Innate Seventh Level Demon Body, it is not something that everyone can do to be frozen by one blow. Even the Innate Ninth Level Ten Thousand Demons King asked himself that he could not do it.

“What a Qianyuan Emperor, with this Divine Power, the Great Ancestor Emperor did not lose unjustly.”

Suddenly a male voice came from the sky, and then the sky suddenly cracked, and a Silver Moon Flying Ring flew out.
