However, ever since the Qianxu Realm's Jinghua Heaven, Dongli Chihuang and Chen Yan had been plotting to kill him. They'd made it clear that he would become the greatest obstacle to the demon race's rise to prominence!
Judging from this, perhaps Jiangchen was afraid of him!
"Afraid?"
When he heard Du Shaofu's words, Jiangchen's incomparably calm face broke into a faint smile. He seemed extremely disdainful. "Given your current strength, what qualifications do you think you have to make me fear you?"
As he spoke, he cast a sidelong glance at Du Shaofu, his gaze filled with ridicule.
In the face of Jiangchen's words, Du Shaofu didn't respond. Instead, he remained silent and didn't refute him.
Jiangchen's words made sense. Judging from the power he'd displayed when he attacked, he'd at least reached the Meditative Realm!
This kind of strength was terrifying enough. Even in the 33 Heavens, he was a peerless existence. Even though Du Shaofu had reached the legendary Realm of the Virtual Dao, he'd only just begun on this path. Compared to Jiangchen, he was still far, far away!
Therefore, if Jiangchen really wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as flipping over his hand!
"Listen to my advice. Return to Shen Wu World and we'll mind our own business!"
When Jiangchen saw that Du Shaofu wasn't saying anything, he spoke again.
"Why am I the one returning to Shen Wu World? Why aren't you the one giving up on the demon race's so-called grand plan and coexisting peacefully with the 33 Heavens?"
Du Shaofu frowned slightly and asked in return.
He didn't dodge. Instead, he stared straight into Jiangchen's eyes, taking in every bit of his expression.
Du Shaofu's intuition told him that Jiangchen truly did fear him. Although he didn't know where this fear came from, there had to be a fundamental reason.
"I am the Demon Ancestor. It is fated that I cannot coexist with the 33 Heavens!"
Jiangchen's expression didn't change in the slightest.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Du Shaofu again and said, "There's no point in talking too much nonsense. The opportunity has been given to you. Whether or not you seize it depends on your choice! The reason why I'm saying this is because of our past friendship. If you don't know what's good for you and insist on obstructing the rise of my demon race, then don't blame me for being ruthless! "
At the end of his speech, Jiangchen's voice sank slightly, as if he was angry.
However, his expression didn't change much, and it was as calm and indifferent as before.
"It's impossible for me to return to Shen Wu world, if you want to do it, do it now!"
Du Shaofu stared intently at Jiangchen, getting straight to the point.
He couldn't accept such a proposal, even though he didn't have many attachments in the 33 Heavens. There were only old friends like Fu Yibai and the old ancestor of the Heavenly Wood Divine Tree, as well as the Yu Qing Divine Nation.
However, once the demon race truly rose to prominence, would they really let Shen Wu world go?
On the other hand, if the Demon Race were to start another bloody war, the Yu Qing Divine Kingdom would definitely not stay out of it. The other experts like Yu Taiyan, Qu Daojue, Ling Feng, Long San and the others would definitely not turn a blind eye to it!
If these people were to participate in the battle, Du Shaofu would also feel uneasy hiding in a corner!
That was why he couldn't agree to Jiangchen's proposal. Even if he really did want to become enemies, he'd do it for good!
By now, Du Shaofu was certain that the young man in front of him was exactly as he'd said. He was the Demon Ancestor, but he was also Jiangchen!
Jiangchen's memories were still there. Nothing had changed, but at the same time, his identity as the Demon Ancestor had become one!
In that case, there was no way to make him realize his mistake and give up on the bloody war!
"Du Shaofu, do you really think I won't kill you?"
As if someone had touched a nerve, Jiangchen was suddenly enraged. Layers of murderous intent radiated from his chiseled face.
His clothes fluttered without the wind, and it suddenly fluttered while a terrifying force coiled around him. It was the quintessence energy of the Grand Dao, and it formed the most perfect Laws in the world, causing Du Shaofu's figure to be confined on the spot and unable to move!
"I told you, if you want to kill me, you can do it now!"
Du Shaofu said calmly. He looked at Jiangchen and said, "In reality, you've been wanting to kill me for a long time. Why put on such an act now? Otherwise, given your status, Dongli Chihuang and Shen Yan wouldn't have tried to kill me over and over again! The two of them have some misgivings about our relationship, but the truth is that you've always tacitly approved of their actions. Isn't that right? "
He'd seen through these problems long ago, but now that he'd pointed them out, he felt a strange sensation in his heart. He'd completely torn away all pretenses of cordiality with Jiangchen and stood on opposite sides!
Du Shaofu sighed inwardly. All of this was within his expectations, but now that he was faced with it, he found it difficult to accept.
After all, Jiangchen had helped him a great deal in Divine Martial World. He really did view him as a friend.
In the face of Du Shaofu's rhetorical question, Jiangchen fell silent for a long time. He didn't say anything.
Du Shaofu didn't say anything either. The two of them stood facing each other, as if neither wanted to be the first to break the silence. The atmosphere was somewhat strange.
In the distance, Dongli Chihuang, Shen Yan, and the nine high-level Immortal experts all watched the situation nervously, their hearts in their throats!
"Your Excellency, you must take action to suppress this brat. You absolutely can't let him live!"
"If Du Shaofu doesn't die, he'll be a huge threat to our demon race. He must be killed!"
"This brat has only cultivated for a few years, yet he's already reached the Ancient Era's Void Dao Realm. If he's given more time to grow, the demon race will have another great enemy in the future!"
"Your Excellency, you must take action!"
Many experts cried silently in their hearts, hoping that Jiangchen could use his absolute strength to kill Du Shaofu and eliminate the demon race's greatest threat!
This was especially true for Dongli Chihuang and Shen Yan. Since their early years in Divine Martial World, they'd had many dealings with Du Shaofu. After arriving in the 33 Heavens, they'd attacked him many times, but they still hadn't been able to kill him!
An enemy like this made the two of them feel uneasy!
As time passed, they grew more and more fearful of Du Shaofu. They didn't dare underestimate him in the slightest!
Earlier, if their Excellency hadn't appeared in time to save them, they probably would've died under Du Shaofu's sword!
"Your Excellency will definitely kill him. Definitely!"
Dongli Chihuang's aura was very unstable. He'd been deeply injured by Du Shaofu, but he still clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.
"Your Excellency's physical body was suppressed in Divine Martial World for many years. His new consciousness has also affected him! I hope that these things won't really cause him to change too much! "
Shen Yan was still somewhat worried. Jiangchen's identity was a completely new consciousness and had nothing to do with the Demon Ancestor. Even if his Excellency had awakened many of his ancient memories, he'd still be somewhat affected!
Then, no one said anything. They all stared intently at Du Shaofu and their Excellency, their eyes filled with hope. They hoped to see their Excellency take action!
"It seems you're stubborn. Since that's the case, I'll kill you right here, right now!"
He looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Don't worry, Du Shaofu.
As soon as he finished speaking, he lightly thrust his palm towards Du Shaofu!
This palm seemed calm, without any fluctuations emitting from it. But, Du Shaofu could feel layers upon layers of the Great Dao circulating between the palm and fingers. A terrifying strength of Laws was woven together, forming a cage that bound him up!
"Is this the power of the Meditative Realm?"
As he watched the palm descend, Du Shaofu's eyes narrowed. He found it difficult to calm the shock in his heart!
Up until now, aside from Jiangchen, he'd only encountered one other Meditative Realm expert. That was the Primordial Demon Dragon Clan's Patriarch Draconic!
This was the first time he'd faced one head-on!
Around Jiangchen's palm, runes invisible to the naked eye took shape!
Within the void, it was as if heaven and earth were rotating. Mountains were collapsing, giant waves were roaring, the sky was trembling, and the earth was overturned. The terrifying power of the world pressed down on him!
The terrifying power was like the collapse of the world, the collapse of the Heavenly Dao, and all living things crumbled!
"Rumble …."
An invisible force came crashing down. Even though Du Shaofu was far away, he could smell the scent of death. He was completely unable to struggle!
In reality, he didn't struggle in the slightest. Disregarding whether or not he could do anything in front of the Meditative Realm, he was already heavily injured. He'd long since reached the end of his tether. There was no way he could put up any effective resistance!
He could only watch helplessly as the pressure bore down on him. It was like an incomparably majestic mountain was about to crush him into powder!
"Rumble …."
Du Shaofu seemed to hear a terrifying rumble. It was like a series of muffled thunders, rolling towards him. Their brazen aura suppressed the world and devoured everything in its path!
"Kekekeke …. His Excellency has finally made his move. Du Shaofu's time of death has come. No one can save him!"
In the distance, Dongli Chihuang couldn't help but laugh sinisterly. His laughter carried an incomparably carefree feeling.
"With His Excellency's move, Du Shaofu will undoubtedly die! So long as he dies, we'll be rid of a calamity for our demon race! "
Chen Yan's brows eased up as well, and he felt much more relaxed!
They were well aware of Du Shaofu's threat. Just as His Excellency and His Excellency had said, the demon race was indeed afraid of him!
Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't have repeatedly attacked and tried to kill him as soon as possible!
If His Excellency and His Excellency had both awakened back in the Divine Martial World, they absolutely wouldn't have let him live until now!
But that didn't matter. Today, His Excellency would personally kill him. He absolutely wouldn't give Du Shaofu a chance to live!
Dongli Chihuang and Chen Yan's lips curled into sinister smiles. It was as if they could already see Du Shaofu's body exploding and his primordial spirit dying!
"I've already given you a chance. You're the one who didn't know how to cherish it!"
These words came out of Jiangchen's mouth. His palm descended gently, but it seemed to carry the power of a thousand catties. It suppressed everything and crushed everything in its path!
Du Shaofu stood there unmoving, as if he'd lost his mind!
He didn't close his eyes and wait for death. Instead, he calmly felt the vast, formless power crushing down on him!
There were some things he couldn't change. He could only face them head-on!
Since Jiangchen wanted to kill him and had the absolute power to crush him, there was nothing more to think about. He could only wait calmly!
"I never thought I'd die at your hands!"
Du Shaofu said softly. His heart was filled with boundless emotion, and he couldn't help but lament endlessly.
However, just as Du Shaofu was sighing with emotion, a sharp beam of light suddenly burst forth from the void in front of him!
The light was like a peerless blade, tearing through heaven and earth as it appeared before him!
Terrifying light exploded forth, and a murderous aura shook the heavens and earth. It formed the shape of a domineering blade and slashed downwards!
Crackle …..
Jiangchen's palm was surrounded by scenes of destruction and the collapse of the Great Dao. Instantly, everything was split apart by the light!
Terrifying and vast, the origin power of the Great Dao exploded, transforming into a raging tide that filled the sky, destroying everything in its path!
Enormous black holes appeared in the surrounding area. It was incomparably terrifying!
As for Jiangchen, he was sent flying by this sudden turn of events. He was sent flying into the distance!
"That's ….."
Du Shaofu's gaze trembled. He couldn't hide his pounding heart.
The aura of that light was very familiar. He'd encountered it before, so he recognized it immediately.
"It's that blade again! It's that Bloodbath! "
Du Shaofu's eyes widened. When he saw a blood-gold longsword appear in the void before him, a terrifying murderous aura swirled around it. It was intimidating!
How could Du Shaofu not recognize such a longsword?
Back in the Qian Xu Jinghua Heaven, they'd been hunted down by numerous beast experts. Then, they'd been attacked by a Meditative Forgetfulness expert. When they'd been forced out of the Ancient Desolate Dimension and faced death, it was his master, Yu Yuqian, Yu Taiyan, and the others who'd arrived with this blade and saved them!
Du Shaofu's memories of the Bloodbath were still fresh in his mind. It was the most terrifying weapon he'd ever seen!
Back in the day, thousands of Yu Qing Divine Kingdom's Neverdying Realm cultivators had been surrounded by hundreds of thousands of beast experts. They'd relied on the Bloodbath to intimidate everyone present. Even the Meditative Forgetfulness expert didn't dare act rashly!
In the end, they'd relied on the longsword to tear open the void and enter the supreme Changrong Heaven, allowing them to escape unscathed!
Du Shaofu feared he'd never be able to remember such a scene in his life. It was too deeply engraved in his mind, too shocking!
And now, just as Jiangchen was about to attack him, the Bloodbath reappeared!
"Is Master here?"
Muttered Du Shaofu. He glanced around, trying to find the person who'd come here with the blade and saved him.
However, he was disappointed. No one came after him. Only the blade hovered in the air, trembling faintly!
"I knew you'd come!"
In the distance, Jiangchen came to a stop. His eyes glowed with a strange light as he stared at the Bloodbath. "Since you've come all the way here, why don't you show yourself? I'd like to see what kind of person you are!"
His eyes didn't move. As soon as he finished speaking, he sank into silence. He simply stared indifferently at the longsword!
"Jiangchen, do you know the identity of the Bloodbath's owner?"
Du Shaofu was rather surprised. In the past, he'd asked Yu Yuqian, Yu Taiyan, and the others about the Bloodbath, but none of them had told him anything about its origins or the identity of its owner.
Now, it seemed that perhaps Jiangchen had discovered something.
Du Shaofu's interest was boundless. He cast his gaze on the longsword!
"Swish … …"
Not long after Jiangchen spoke, the Bloodbath burst forth with resplendent light.
Then, a figure gently walked out of the light. He stepped into the air and stood in front of Du Shaofu.
"Long time no see!"
It was a man in green robes. When he appeared, he didn't look at Jiangchen. Instead, he faced Du Shaofu, his lips curved into a smile as he spoke to Du Shaofu.
When he saw this figure, Du Shaofu was completely stunned. He stared blankly at the man in green robes, unable to speak for a long time.
"You … … you're … …"
Du Shaofu couldn't even speak properly. He was truly shocked and felt that the identity of the person who had come was inconceivable!
He looked at the man in green robes, then at the longsword beside him. For a moment, his mind couldn't wrap itself around the situation.
"Du Shaofu greets Senior Lu!"
After a long, long time, Du Shaofu came to his senses. He bent down and bowed to the man in green robes.
How could he not recognize this person? In the past, when he'd been in Divine Martial World, he'd seen this person's incarnation many times. It was none other than the Lord of the Three Thousand Sectors, who'd once pursued the Demon God to Divine Martial World — Lu Shaoyou!
Many of his techniques had been taught to him by this man!
Lu Shaoyou's appearance stunned Du Shaofu!
No matter what, Du Shaofu never would've guessed that the Lord of the Three Thousand Sectors was the Bloodbath's owner!
If that was the case, then Master Yu Yuqian and Senior Brother Yu Taiyan had both borrowed the Bloodbath. Then what was their relationship with Lu Shaoyou?
"No wonder! No wonder! No wonder Master and Senior Brothers were so arrogant. Under the circumstances where Yu Qing Divine Kingdom wasn't strong, they didn't take many forces seriously! And back then, the Extermination Spiritual Sanctuary suddenly mobilized thousands of Immortal Realm experts! So the force behind them is the Yunyang Sect, which is related to the Lord of the Three Thousand Sectors! "
It was only now that Du Shaofu understood these questions.
Yu Taiyan, Qu Daojue, Long San, Ling Feng, and the others were all very strong. They were backed by the Lingwu World, which was one of the Three Thousand Sectors, and looked down on all their opponents!
Du Shaofu had always wanted to see how powerful the Yunyang Sect was. However, it was only today that he realized that its strength was far beyond his expectations!
The Lord of the Three Thousand Sectors! Just thinking about such a background made one's blood boil!
"They're really good at hiding things! I can't believe I only found out about this now! "
Du Shaofu smiled bitterly. He'd asked many times about the Bloodbath, the Yunyang Sect, and so on, but Yu Taiyan, Yu Yuqian, Qu Daojue, and the others all avoided the important points and dwelled on the trivial. They kept it a secret and didn't tell him.
In fact, he knew that those people didn't want him to bite off more than he could chew. That would be detrimental to his cultivation!
However, when such a big matter was revealed, it was indeed shocking!
