1535 The Ghost Emperorâs Authority, The Embodier Aura, Only A Living Heavenly Child Deserves To Be A Heavenly Child
âWhatâs going on?â
âI-Iâm not dead. N-No. I was dead but alive again?â
The revived souls looked around in confusion and had no idea what was going on.
Meanwhile, the skeletal Yin general also gradually recovered and could sense his complete soul. He then knelt before Chu Kuangren. âThank you for your kindness, Ghost Emperor.â
âDonât mention that. Youâve sacrificed yourself for Fengdu City.â
Chu Kuangren smiled lightly.
Following that, he looked at the dead souls around him thoughtfully.
Reviving the dissipated souls was incredible. It was said that only the ancient Divine Underworld Daoist could do it.
However, Chu Kuangren managed to do the same thing as the Divine Underworld Daoist by relying on the eight Samsara Emperor Sealsâ control over Fengdu City, coupled with the heavenly Samsara Physique that he possessed.
âThereâs one last piece of Samsara Emperor Seals left,â mumbled Chu Kuangren.
He had obtained eight of the nine Samsara Emperor Seals, and he only needed to find the last one to possess the complete Fengdu Ghost Emperorâs authority.
âThe person isâŠâ
Suddenly, Chu Kuangren noticed the figure in a gray robe among the crowd.
The person gave him a powerful feeling.
âLil Ai, analyze the person for me.â
âAlright.â
Chu Kuangrenâs pupils shrank slightly after the analysis because the personâs cultivation had reached the Embodier Realm.
He also knew his status by now.
An Underworld authorityâs high priestâŠ
An Underworld authority?
It was an unheard Underworld organization that was watched over by the Embodier Realm. Its power was not weaker than the three great Underworld cities, and might even be more powerful than them.
âCould he be the one that suppresses the Underworld?â
Chu Kuangren vaguely felt that there was an existence above that suppressed the three great Underworld cities.
Otherwise, either Yincao City or Taishan City would have taken action to occupy Fengdu City, and it was believed that Fengdu City could not resist the attacks with its wisdom. Why bother to find Chi Mei Wang Liang?
âFengdu Ghost Emperor, can we talk?â
The high priest approached Chu Kuangren and asked.
Chu Kuangren nodded slightly. âLetâs go to my imperial palace.â
âGreat.â
âLord Ghost Emperor, I shall go with you,â said the skeletal Yin general.
He could sense that the high priest was not a simple person and worried that he would harm Chu Kuangren.
âDonât worry. No one can hurt me in Fengdu City,â said Chu Kuangren.
His Ghost Emperorâs authority greatly increased after he had mastered the eight Samsara Emperor Seals. Even an Embodier would have to think twice before killing him.
In the imperial palace, Chu Kuangren and the high priest sat facing each other while Bai Mei was pouring tea for both of them.
âFengdu Ghost Emperor, I hope you can let go of your prejudices and live in peace with the Yincao Underworld city,â the high priest said bluntly.
âBai Mei, stop pouring the tea. Send the guest off!â
Chu Kuangren said with a cold gaze.
The corner of the high priestâs mouth twitched. He did perceive that Chu Kuangren would be resolute but he did not expect that he would be resolute to such an extent.
How could Chu Kuangren drive an Embodier like him away?
Thinking of this, he felt slightly angry with Embodierâs aura pervading the air.
However, Chu Kuangren merely sat where he was while protecting Bai Mei behind him. His expression was indifferent and activated the Ghost Emperorâs authority.
The Ghost Emperorâs authority versus the Embodierâs aura!
Two invisible yet terrifying forces collided with each other in the imperial palace.
It was conceivable that if someone entered the imperial palace at this moment, he would be crushed by the two forces, and even a Gilded Immortal had no exception.
âFengdu Ghost Emperor, the Heavenly Childâs order disallows the three great Underworld cities to attack each other. It is normal that you donât know the order as youâd just become the Ghost Emperor. Therefore, I wonât pursue your previous attack on Yincao City but now, Iâve just informed you about it. Do you still want to ignore the Heavenly Childâs order and insist to be enemies with the Yincao City?!â
The high priest said in a cold tone.
âAlthough Yincao City didnât attack me directly, he plotted against my Fengdu City behind my back. Iâll make them pay for it. The halberd attack previously is just a slight punishment.â
At this point, Chu Kuangren paused for a while, then looked at the high priest and said indifferently, âForgive me for being frank. As for the Heavenly Childâs order that youâve just mentioned, only a living Heavenly Child deserves to be a Heavenly Child. A dead Heavenly Child means nothing. If the Heavenly Childâs order is effective, how would Yincao City dare to attack Fengdu City?!â
âHow audacious! How dare you disrespect the Heavenly Child?â
The high priest snorted coldly. Soon after, his Embodierâs aura erupted, and the Daoist law vaguely emerged in the void.
However, Chu Kuangrenâs expression remained indifferent. His Ghost Emperorâs authority then activated and resisted the Embodierâs might.
âYou can attack me, but you should know what the consequences will be. Iâm sure you know what the Immortal Hall ended up with.â
Chu Kuangren said calmly.
Twenty years ago, Immortal Hallâs great ones took action against Chu Kuangren, causing him to be trapped in the Bagua Furnace.
Many people were clear with the Celestial Demon Tribeâs anger, and so did the high priest.
âAre you threatening me?â The high priest asked in a cold tone.
âNo, Iâm not. Iâm just telling you the fact. Do you think that the Yincao Underworld city dared not attack me directly but plotted against me behind my back just because they were fearful of the Heavenly Childâs order and you? Youâre wrong. They were actually afraid of my Celestial Demon Tribe!â Chu Kuangren stared at the high priest.
There was also an Embodier Realm in Yincao City!
Although it was suppressed by the high priest, it had the power to fight.
Compared with the high priest, Yincao City was more afraid of the Celestial Demon Tribe behind Chu Kuangren!
Hence, they dared not take action themselves.
Hearing his words, the high priestâs expression changed consistently.
Eventually, he sighed helplessly, and his Embodierâs aura dissipated gradually. âYouâre right. The Heavenly Child has been dead for a long time, and the Underworld authority is no longer able to suppress the two great Underworld cities.â
The Underworld authority was a body established by the ancient Divine Underworld Daoist. It was directly under the Divine Underworld Daoist to balance the forces of all Underworld cities.
The Underworld Ruler was revered as the high priest.
The position of high priest had been passed down for generations. However, since the Underworld authority was rebuilt after ancient Immortal times, and without the presence of Divine Underworld Daoist, its prestige had been unable to return to its level of the ancient Immortal times.
This was especially obvious after the new Embodierâs great ones were born in Yincao Underworld city.
It had not been easy for the high priest to be able to suppress Yincao City and Taishan City for many years.
âThe Underworld needs a new Heavenly Child. I donât like the words Heavenly Child but prefer the title of Ghost Emperor. The Underworld needs a Ghost Emperor to unify it!â
Chu Kuangren continued saying.
Hearing his words, the high priestâs pupils shrank slightly. âYou want to follow the Heavenly Childâs footsteps to rule the Underworld!â
âYes!â
âInteresting.â A glint flashed in the high priestâs eyes, and he pondered for a while.
He had the thought of supporting a new Divine Underworld Daoist as soon as Chu Kuangren became the Fengdu Ghost Emperor while possessing Heavenly Samsara Physique.
Chu Kuangren was undoubtedly an excellent candidate in terms of talent and background.
âYour cultivation is merely Gilded Immortal.â
âItâs just a piece of cake for me to break through the Arch Gilded Immortal,â said Chu Kuangren.
âYouâre very confident, but do you know how many Gilded Immortals had been trapped before the Arch Gilded Immortalâs threshold for years? It is possible that one canât step into the Arch Gilded Immortal Realm for a lifetime.â
âDo you think Iâm the same as those mediocrities?â asked Chu Kuangren.
The high priest pondered for a while, then said, âIf you can break through the Arch Gilded Immortal within a hundred years, Iâll appoint you as the new Divine Underworld Daoist!â
