The Rain Abbess said nothing. She just hovered in the air as she stared at Mo Tianyun emotionlessly. Only the light in her eyes flickered from time to time. Clearly, she was hesitating.
She was also weighing the pros and cons inside. Although she already knew that Mo Tianyun possessed a supreme god artifact that was highly compatible with him, the Rain Abbess still showed no fear.
The might of a supreme artifact was indeed very strong. Especially in the hands of an expert at Mo Tian Yun's level, the supreme artifact could erupt with even more power. However, she also understood just how terrifying the power within the golden scales was. She was confident that once she removed the golden scales, she would definitely be able to suppress Mo Tianyun who wielded a supreme god artifact.
However, when she thought about the price she would have to pay for using the golden scales, the Rain Abbess became extremely hesitant.
The power of the golden scales could not be used unless it was a matter of life and death.
If she used the power of the golden scales just for the heavenly resources that the Heavenly Demon Religion had stolen from her in the past, it would not be worth it.
The Innate Orchid of Five Elements that had been tainted by Xuanhuang Qi was indeed extremely precious, but it was not worth the power of the golden scales.
Most importantly, the Rain Abbess herself understood that even if she used the power of the golden scales, she would not necessarily be able to keep the Empyrean Demon Lord here. If he wanted to flee, she would be helpless against a powerful enemy with a supreme god artifact.
Not only was the power of the golden scales costly, but it could not be maintained for long either.
After a while, the Rain Abbess' overwhelming presence finally receded slowly. Even her cultivation level plummeted, falling from the Seventh Heavenly Layer to the Sixth Heavenly Layer and then to the Fifth Heavenly Layer.
In a single moment, the Rain Abbess recovered her cultivation at the Fifth Heavenly Layer.
As her strength fell, the silver and bronze scales that had vanished from her neck reappeared.
Mo Tianyun let out a sigh of relief when he saw the Rain Abbess' change. He smiled easily and joked, "It's been a very long time since someone has forced me into such a state. Even when I fought against the divine general of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng in the past, he wasn't qualified to make me use my full strength. However, not only did you make me use my full strength, but you even made me use my supreme god artifact. Your strength has completely exceeded my expectations. "
Mo Tian Yun's gaze was complicated as he looked at the sharp claw that was as thin as a cicada's wing. He sighed, "Ever since I obtained this supreme divine tool, I have never truly used its power. Moreover, I am not willing to use it. This is because if I use its power, some people might be able to detect me through some special sensing ability.
"Rain Abbess, it's fortunate that you stopped in time. Otherwise, I would really be in trouble," Mo Tianyun smiled bitterly.
"Cut the crap. You need to give me an explanation for the losses your Empyrean Demon Cult caused to my Cloudsurge Empire in the past, or I will never spare you. Although I can't do anything to you right now, once I completely fuse the power of the first two seals, suppressing you will be as easy as flipping my hand. At that time, I can use the power of the third seal at any time. "
The Rain Abbess said coldly.
"Fuse?" A gleam of light flashed through Mo Tianyun's eyes when he heard that. He stared at the Rain Abbess in interest and said sternly, "Can the power of the seals be completely converted into your true strength?"
Even with Mo Tianyun's mental fortitude and knowledge, he could not help but be shocked when he heard that. In the Saints' World, there were various abilities that could be used to increase one's strength. As a matter of fact, there were various methods that could be used to increase one's strength by harming oneself.
However, without any exception, these methods were all temporary. They could only be maintained for a short period of time before they returned to their original state.
Mo Tianyun originally thought that the three scales on the Rain Abbess' neck could only increase her strength temporarily. It was equivalent to some sort of ability or innate ability.
However, now that he heard the Rain Abbess say that the power in her scales could be fused, it was rather terrifying.
This was because a complete fusion was equivalent to possessing the power permanently.
"Empyrean Demon Lord, that's not something you should be concerned about," the Rain Abbess said coldly. A gleam of light flashed through her eyes as she pondered and deduced. She said slowly, "I've suddenly understood a few things. In the past, when your Heavenly Demon Religion attacked my Cloudsurge Empire, a person who shouldn't have appeared appeared. That person's name was Jianchen. "
"In the past, Jianchen would only be a burden with the strength of your Heavenly Demon Religion. To your Heavenly Demon Religion, his strength was insignificant. However, in the end, your Heavenly Demon Religion actually invited an outsider into where I cultivated."
"And what happened recently on the Ice Pole Plane. Jianchen worked with the Tianhe clan in an attempt to save a female attendant of the Ice Goddess Hall from the Snow sect. Although I haven't seen Jianchen much, I sent people to investigate him as he is one of the successors of the Martial Soul lineage. "
"However, according to my understanding of Jianchen, he would never drag everyone from the Martial Soul lineage to his death if he knew he was no match for them. But in the end, he just happened to do that … "
"Now that I think about it, you must have been the reason why Jianchen asked for help from the Martial Soul lineage. Moreover, your Heavenly Demon Religion just happened to be on the Ice Pole Plane at that time." The Rain Abbess' gaze suddenly became piercing. She said, "Whether it's Jianchen's intrusion into my Cloudsurge Empire or his request for help from the Martial Soul lineage because of what happened on the Ice Pole Plane, it was all because of you. That means you already knew about my relationship with Hun Zang a very long time ago."
"Empyrean Demon Lord, I'm very curious. How did you know about this?"
Mo Tianyun smiled. "Not only do I know about your relationship with Hun Zang, but I also know quite a lot about the past of the Cloudsurge Empire and the Cloudsurge Empire."
"Y- you've been to the Canglan World?" The Rain Abbess' eyes narrowed.
"That's right. I have indeed been to the Canglan World by coincidence in the past. The Canglan World is the homeland of the Cloudsurge Empire and the Cloudsurge Empire. Even though the two of them have already left the Canglan World for many years, they still left behind many traces. In particular, the stories and experiences of the two of them growing up have become eternal legends of the Canglan World. Later generations have already built many commemorative monuments and divine statues of Fanyun and Fuyu in Ten Directions Deep Sea Realm. " Mo Tianyun smiled for some reason. He said, "Rain Abbess, you should understand now that I know quite a lot about the past of the two of them."
"I see …" The Rain Abbess murmured. Mo Tianyun's words had awakened the past that had been sealed away for who knew how many years. She could not help but think about the time when she roamed the Canglan World with the Cloudsurge Empire.
