The Great Heavenly Devil Venerable's choice was reasonable. This Reaching Heaven State expert from antiquity times did not have a good temper.
Otherwise, if he had chosen to submit to the Human Emperor back then, he could have continued to live like the Dao Ancestor and the Buddha. However, he chose a path with no chance of survival and insisted on fighting the Human Emperor head-on.
Jiang Yuanzhen probably still didn't know what kind of enemy he was being targeted by.
Su Xin said in a low voice, "By the way, Lord Devil Venerable, I have another question. Who were the nine Reaching Heaven experts in the ancient times? There aren't even nine Reaching Heaven experts in the Pugilistic World. "
Great Sky Devil Venerable said, "That's normal. It's because they died early. Excluding the Martial Ancestor who came later, the nine Grand Empyreans you know are me, the Human Emperor, the Dao Ancestor, the Buddha, the Heavenly Emperor, and the Emperor of Feng Du. The other three died before the demons were defeated.
One of the three was Sword Saint Mo Li. He was the ancestor of swordsmanship and the most powerful swordsman in the world. He was the first to fall. At that time, Renhuang had yet to establish a dynasty to fight against the demon race officially.
Because his lover was killed by the Demon Clan, Sword Sage Mo Li broke into the Demon Clan's sacred land, Xu Kunlun, and seriously injured four Demon Sages. He died in the end.
The rise of the Human Emperor's dynasty was also because the Demon Clan's power was greatly reduced after the four Demon Sages were injured. That was why they didn't put all their power into the dynasty. Otherwise, the rise of the Human Emperor wouldn't have been so smooth. "
Great Sky Devil Venerable paused and said, "The second Reaching Heaven expert was the Dragon King of the East Sea."
Su Xin frowned and said, "Dragon King? Isn't that a title only the Demon Clan has? "
Warriors nowadays had all sorts of nicknames. However, in ancient times, if a human dared to call himself Dragon King, it would be a provocation to the Demon Clan.
Great Sky Devil Venerable had a disdainful look on his face. "He was a human, but he stood on the Demon Clan's side.
Don't think that the Demon Race and the Human Race were irreconcilable existences. In fact, there were many humans who were willing to become the Demon Race's lackeys.
The Dragon King of the East Sea was one of them. He was the adopted son of the Great Sage of the Ocean Cover, one of the Seven Great Sages of the Demon Clan. Because he had the help of the Demon Clan's resources, he was the first to enter the Sky-reaching Realm. Moreover, he was deeply trusted by the Great Sage of the Ocean Cover and was appointed to guard the East Sea, which was now the Internal Sea. That was why he was called the Dragon King of the East Sea.
This guy was sinister and cunning. Back then, when the Human Emperor tried to persuade him to set things right and turn against the demon race at the crucial moment, he pretended to agree, but in reality, he was plotting against the Human Emperor.
But this fellow didn't know that when it came to playing mind games, how many people in this world could compare to that old man? That little trick of his had long been seen through by Old Man Renhuang. Not only did he fail to scheme against Old Man Renhuang, but he was also schemed against by Old Man Renhuang. In the end, he was killed. "
Su Xin nodded. He didn't find this kind of thing strange. Reaching Heaven State was also human. Of course, not everyone could stand out and be a hero for their own race.
Back then, the Human Emperor had been praised in the Jianghu as a savior. However, the more Su Xin learned about the Human Emperor, the more he felt that the real Human Emperor was completely different from the one in the Jianghu.
The Human Emperor, who was regarded as a saint, was overbearing and ruthless. He was good at playing tricks and even dared to let the Demon Clan off in order to get rid of dissidents. Since the Human Emperor was like this, it wasn't strange that there was a Reaching Heaven State who recognized a demon as his father.
"What about the last one?"
Great Sky Devil Venerable paused for a while and said, "The last Reaching Heaven State was a woman. Everyone called her the Moon Goddess."
At the mention of this name, Great Sky Devil Venerable had a look of reminiscence in his eyes. After a while, he said, "The Jianghu has always been dominated by men. There are very few women who can reach a high position. The Moon Goddess was able to achieve the Reaching Heaven State, which can be said to be unprecedented.
Do you know what the words "peerless beauty" mean? In ancient times, these four words were used to describe the Moon God. "
Speaking of this, Great Sky Devil Venerable suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "As a Reaching Heaven State, if the Moon Goddess didn't seek death like the Sword Sage Mo Li, no one could kill her. It's a pity that she fell in love with someone she shouldn't have, that old Human Emperor!
When the Era Dynasty first appeared, although it didn't arouse the vigilance of all the Demon Clan, it still caused the Demon Clan to suppress it. The first one to take action was the top three of the Seven Great Sages of the Demon Clan, the Red Dragon Sage.
At that time, the old Human Emperor was in a life-and-death retreat and couldn't be disturbed at all. Otherwise, all his previous efforts would be in vain. The Moon Goddess happened to be with Human Emperor at that time, so she helped him resist the Red Dragon Sage.
However, among the Reaching Heaven State in ancient times, the Moon Goddess's combat power was the lowest. She wasn't good at frontal attacks, and the Great Sages of the Demon Clan were originally stronger than the Reaching Heaven State of the Human Clan. The Red Dragon Sage was one of the best, so the Moon Goddess couldn't resist him at all. But because of Human Emperor, she resisted with all her might. In the end, she was killed by the Red Dragon Sage, but she managed to protect Human Emperor. "
Hearing Great Sky Devil Venerable's tone, Su Xin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. From what he said, it seemed that he also had some admiration for the Moon Goddess. Was it because of this that he refused to join Human Emperor?
Moreover, Su Xin also remembered that Jiang Yuanzhen had used the Seven Strokes of the Dragon Beheading before. It was the story of Human Emperor's Seven Strokes of the Dragon Beheading the Red Dragon.
At that time, Human Emperor probably wanted to avenge his lover, so he used the amazing Seven Strokes of the Dragon Beheading and killed a Great Sage of the Demon Clan with only seven strokes.
At this time, Su Xin suddenly thought of something and said, "Since three Reaching Heaven State have died, and the great changes of the world in ancient times haven't ended, why hasn't a new Reaching Heaven State been born?"
Great Sky Devil Venerable laughed and said, "It's not that easy. Do you really think that the will and rules of the world are so stupid that you can take advantage of it?
To advance to the Reaching Heaven State is to steal the Heaven's Secret. You have already stolen one Heaven's Secret when you advance once. There are only nine Heaven's Secrets in total. It's impossible for you to take one Heaven's Secret twice.
Just like what I am now, I have already obtained the Heaven's Secret that belongs to me, but in the end, I lost it. Now if I want to return to the Reaching Heaven State, there will be another great change of the world. Only then can I step into the Reaching Heaven State again. "
Su Xin frowned. Was there really no one else who could step into the Reaching Heaven State except for this method?
Come to think of it, in ancient times, in addition to the Great Heavenly Devil Venerable and other outstanding figures who had reached the Reaching Heaven State, there were also many warriors in the Celestial Bridge State. Otherwise, they would not have been able to compete with the Demon Clan.
In the end, none of those people managed to advance to the Reaching Heaven State. There had only been nine of them all along. One could well imagine how difficult this step was. Moreover, there were also the restrictions of the rules. Even the powerful Ajati Matriarch had not been able to break through this layer of restrictions.
At this time, Lu Potian suddenly asked, "Since you can leave behind a way to be reborn, what about the Taoist Ancestor and the Buddha? What about the Emperor of Feng Du and the God of Haotian? Are the Sky-reaching Realm experts of your ancient times still alive? "
Su Xin also looked at the Great Heavenly Devil Venerable. Actually, he wanted to ask this question too.
For experts of this level, as long as there was a chance of survival, they would be able to find an opportunity. Just like the Great Heavenly Devil Venerable, he had only set it up in a hurry. In the end, he had also left a chance of survival for himself, so that he could reappear in the world now. What about the Taoist Ancestor and the others who were stronger than the Great Heavenly Devil Venerable and could even scheme against him?
The Great Heavenly Devil Venerable spread his hands and said, "You don't have to ask me, because I don't know about this either. I only know who was definitely dead.
The Dragon King of the East Sea was killed by the Human Sovereign, so he was definitely dead. It would be extremely difficult for him to escape from the hands of the Human Sovereign.
Also, the Sword Saint Mo Li and the Moon Deity were definitely dead. They were both killed by the Demon Clan. If they wanted to leave any way out, the Demon Clan would be able to sense it.
The remaining Emperor of Feng Du and the Heavenly Emperor should be really dead. I have dealt with them before, and their tempers are even more stubborn than mine. At least I would leave them a chance of survival, but it is very likely that they would choose to perish together with the Human Sovereign.
As for the remaining few, I really can't guarantee that the Old Ox Nose and the Bald Donkey are still alive. Among the Reaching Heaven State in ancient times, they and the Human Sovereign are the most scheming. Although ten thousand years have passed, I really don't know if they are dead or alive. However, with their personalities, even if they are really dead, they would definitely leave something behind.
There is also the Martial Ancestor. He reached the Reaching Heaven State after I died, so I don't know much about him. "
Speaking of this, Great Sky Devil Venerable suddenly looked at Su Xin and smiled. "It seems that you have offended the Shaolin Temple and the Good Fortune Gate, the leaders of the Buddhist Sect and the Taoist Sect. To be precise, you have already become enemies with them. In this case, you really have to be careful.
The Old Ox Nose and the Bald Donkey are the most vengeful. You almost killed their descendants. If they are really alive, they will definitely not forgive you. "
Su Xin said indifferently, "Then let's wait and see. Anyway, you've said that if there's no great change in the world, even if you come back to the world, you won't be able to return to the Reaching Heaven State. Since that's the case, why should I be afraid?
I haven't reached the end of the road in the Kamibashi Area. When I reach the peak of the Reaching Heaven State, I am very confident about my strength. "
Great Sky Devil Venerable laughed. "Not bad, you have courage! Boy, you are really a pity. If you were born in the ancient times, I would definitely take you into the Diabolism. Maybe my Diabolism could create another Reaching Heaven State. "
Having said that, Great Sky Devil Venerable didn't want to stay here any longer. After throwing a secret method to Lu Potian, he turned around and left. For him, after coming back to the world, the first thing to do was not to cultivate or enjoy. Instead, he wanted to take revenge and get some interest!
