"However, according to the records of history, the calamity was so terrifying that even the ancestors of the continent were unable to resist it. How are we going to deal with it?"
Xing Jue was extremely excited when he found out about the Saint Stone. After all, Xing Jue had already become a combat emperor and it was only a matter of time before he became a high-level combat emperor by relying on the power of the Soul Devouring Art. Furthermore, with Xing Jue's current level of comprehension, it wouldn't take too long. Therefore, Xing Jue was very interested in the Saint Stone.
However, he was currently worried about how to resist the calamity. After all, if they couldn't survive the calamity, then everything would just be empty talk.
"The people who recorded the history books clearly witnessed the appearance of the Heavenly Anomaly and the descent of the terrifying calamity. After the calamity, the continent was plunged into misery and suffering as if it was a living hell. In other words, there were people who survived the calamity."
"Moreover, he also recorded the method to resist the calamity in detail in this book of history. However, it requires the united efforts of the people of the Sky Martial Continent!" Yao Yutian pointed at the ancient book of history in Xing Jue's hand and said slowly.
"What should we do then?" Xing Jue asked anxiously.
"Actually, the so-called calamity is the Saint Demon that will be brought along when the Saint Stone descends. The Saint Demon is like the guardian of the Saint Stone. Every Saint Stone will be protected by a Saint Demon and the Saint Demon is naturally brutal. Therefore, when the Saint Demon descends along with the Saint Stone, it will massacre all the living beings in the continent."
"However, the Saint Demon is a creature of the Holy Region. Due to some special reasons, they can't stay in the continent for a long time. Therefore, they will automatically dissipate after a certain period of time."
"Therefore, as long as we set up a giant defensive formation in the Towering Sky Region before the calamity arrives, we will protect all the living beings in the Towering Sky Region. Then, we will rely on our strength to maintain the formation and resist the Saint Demon's attack. Then, we will be able to resolve the calamity and obtain the Saint Stone."
"However, we don't know how many Holy Stones will descend this time. The number of Holy Stones will determine the power of the calamity, so we must ensure that all the Combat Emperors on the continent will contribute. Right now, we must put aside our grudges and work together to resist the calamity," Yao Yutian explained slowly.
"It's just that, even with our powers, it will take quite some time to construct such a large array. I wonder if we can complete it before the calamity descends," Xing Jue said worriedly.
"Don't worry, we've already discussed about the formation. We'll use the Profound Heaven Formation of the Mystical Palace."
"This grand formation was left behind by Dugu Changyi. Back then, Dugu Changyi was extremely proficient in Spirit Formation, and the Profound Heaven Grand Formation that he created was the strongest among all of the grand formations. With the Profound Heaven Grand Formation protecting us, there is absolutely no problem."
"According to the historical records, we've observed the heavenly phenomena and discovered that the accumulation of the heavenly phenomena isn't deep enough. There is still at least a year before the calamity descends, and this one year is more than enough for us to complete the grand formation," Yao Yutian continued.
After listening to Yao Yutian's words, Xing Jue nodded his head in satisfaction. It turned out that they had already planned everything out. After that, the few of them carefully distributed the tasks of dealing with the calamity.
Because the Profound Heaven Grand Formation was too mysterious, even Xing Jue couldn't interfere. He could only wait until the grand formation was completed, and he could only use his own strength to maintain the grand formation. As for the construction of the grand formation, only mid-level Combat Emperors could do it, so the Asura Palace sent Xiaolong.
"Palace Master Xing Jue, three days later at the Azure Dragon Plains, if you return the Ice and Fire Generals, I will give you the Flaming Yellow Devil Turtle." After planning everything out, the Profound Insight Ghost Phoenix gave Xing Jue a strange smile before turning around and fusing with the space around him. He had already left.
"Since that's the case, then Palace Master Dugu, Palace Master Xing Jue, Clan Master Dan, I will take my leave first." Seeing that the Profound Insight Ghost Phoenix had left, the Demon Refinement Tribe's Clan Master and the others also left, leaving only Dugu Haoyu, Xing Jue, and Lady Dan.
"Hall Master Xing Jue, actually, I still have to thank you." But what surprised Xing Jue was that Lady Dan suddenly smiled and said to him.
"Clan Master Dan, why do you say that?" Xing Jue was puzzled.
"Thank you for bringing a peerless alchemy genius to our Sacred Pill Clan, Yanran."
"That girl Yanran's talent in alchemy is so great that even I have to admit that I am inferior to her. Now that I have injected the bloodline power of my Sacred Pill Clan into her body, she is already a member of my Sacred Pill Clan. Furthermore, I am prepared to make her the successor of my Sacred Pill Clan."
"And to be able to obtain such a satisfactory successor, it is all thanks to Palace Master Xing Jue. Furthermore, Yanran is also very concerned about you. If you have the time, why don't you come to my Sacred Pill Clan?" Lady Dan said with a smile.
"Heh, Xing Jue should be grateful that Clan Master Dan thinks so highly of Senior Sister Wang. If there is time, Xing Jue will naturally pay a visit to the Sacred Pill Clan."
After hearing Lady Dan's words, Xing Jue finally understood what she meant. It turned out that Wang Yanran had actually obtained the bloodline power of the Sacred Pill Clan and became a member of the Sacred Pill Clan. Furthermore, she was chosen by the Clan Master to be the successor of the Sacred Pill Clan. This was good news.
"En, my Sacred Pill Clan will quietly await the arrival of Palace Master Xing Jue. This is the Sacred Pill Token of my Sacred Pill Clan. With it, you can enter and leave the Sacred Pill Clan as you please." Lady Dan smiled and passed a gorgeous token to Xing Jue, then turned around and left.
"Sacred Pill Token?" Looking at the Sacred Pill Token in his hand, a trace of warmth rose in Xing Jue's heart. The importance of the Sacred Pill Token had already been mentioned by the Lady Dan earlier. Since she was willing to give such an important token to Xing Jue, it could be seen how highly the Lady Dan regarded Xing Jue. It could also be said that the Asura Palace and the Sacred Pill Clan had already formed an alliance. To Xing Jue, this was a great thing.
"The Lady Dan is not a generous person. This time, she was actually willing to give the Sacred Pill Token to Palace Master Xing Jue. This is quite surprising."
"However, she must have taken a fancy to Palace Master Xing Jue's extraordinary talent and future potential."
"She's not the only one. In this continent, anyone with the slightest bit of intelligence can see Palace Master Xing Jue's talent. Even if our current strength is above yours, our achievements in the future will be far behind yours. This is the real reason why the Lady Dan is trying to rope you in." Dugu Haoyu's voice suddenly rang out when the Lady Dan left.
"Hehe, Palace Master Dugu, if there's nothing else, Xing Jue will take his leave."
Naturally, Xing Jue understood Dugu Haoyu's words. However, he would not have a good impression of him just because of Dugu Haoyu's warning. If it was possible, Xing Jue wished he could kill him right now. After bidding farewell, Xing Jue turned around and prepared to leave.
"Palace Master Xing Jue, you … resemble an old friend of mine."
However, just as Xing Jue was about to leave, Dugu Haoyu's voice rang out once more. At this moment, Xing Jue's heart began to tremble violently.
When Xing Jue turned his head, he was shocked to discover that Dugu Haoyu was looking at him with a faint smile. Furthermore, that smile seemed to contain a deeper meaning. However, Xing Jue did not stop because of this. Instead, he waved his sleeve and fused into the dimensional space.
"Damn it. Why did he say that? Could it be that he discovered something? "Xing Jue could not stop pondering after entering the dimensional space.
"Hmph. So what if you've discovered it? Now that the calamity is upon us, what can you do to me? Once the calamity is over, it might be your time of death! "However, Xing Jue viciously swore in his heart.
Now that the calamity was holding them back, the people of the Martial Sky Continent had put aside their grudges and fought against it together. Therefore, even if Dugu Haoyu knew Xing Jue's true identity, he would not dare to do anything to Xing Jue. As for the mysterious person behind Dugu Haoyu, Xing Jue was not worried at all. He had a feeling that the mysterious person was also being held back by something. Otherwise, he would not be so secretive.
Buzz.
However, just as Xing Jue was wandering in the dimensional space, preparing to open a spatial tunnel and rush back to the Asura Palace, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. When Xing Jue saw who it was, he was even more shocked.
"Senior Yao Yutian!" Looking at the person in front of him, Xing Jue cried out in surprise.
"Hehe, little friend Xing Jue, it has only been a few months since we last met, but your progress has really put me to shame. Not only did you become the youngest Combat Emperor in history, you even made the Asura Palace into an existence that can fight against Beast City."
"Currently, the Asura Palace is publicly acknowledged as the fifth strongest power in the Towering Heaven Region. Furthermore, it is the power with the greatest potential. Your achievements are really enviable," Yao Yutian said to Xing Jue with a smile.
"Hehe, senior must be looking for me for something, right?" Xing Jue said with a smile.
Yao Yutian had clearly bid farewell to them and left. Now that he had appeared in front of Xing Jue, it was obvious that he had something to discuss with Xing Jue.
"Little friend Xing Jue, I have something to discuss with you." However, as soon as Xing Jue's words left his mouth, an old man's voice suddenly sounded behind Xing Jue. When Xing Jue heard the voice, he was stunned for a moment, then he quickly turned to look at the old man behind him.
"Aber, it's really you!"
Looking at the amiable-looking old man in front of him, Xing Jue's face was filled with astonishment. After that, he quickly turned to look at Yao Yutian, then at Aber. The two of them appearing at the same time really confused Xing Jue.
"Lord Father, I'll leave the rest to you to tell little friend Xing Jue." While Xing Jue was surprised by Aber's appearance, Yao Yutian, who was standing behind him, said with a faint smile on his face.
"What? Lord Father, could it be that you are? "After hearing Yao Yutian's words, Xing Jue looked at Aber with a dumbfounded expression.
"Hehe, that's right. In fact, I am Xinyan's grandfather who suddenly passed away ten years ago." Aber narrowed his eyes and admitted without denying it.
At this moment, Xing Jue was even more shocked. Although he had already realized that Aber was very likely Yao Xinyan's grandfather and Yao Yutian's father, he was still shocked when Aber admitted everything. Why did Aber pretend to be dead? Why didn't he even tell Yao Xinyan, and instead pretended to be a servant to accompany her? All kinds of questions quickly circled in Xing Jue's mind.
