Chapter 1277 - 679: Identity Exposed? (2)
He slightly turned his body, facing Huang Ya directly, his voice deliberately lowered, carrying an unquestionable determination:
"Could the celebration be postponed?"
"Senior Huang Ya, do you know how Jiang Taixuan can repeatedly cause severe damage to our race?"
Huang Ya was startled, his wild joy slightly restrained, and after thinking it over, he said, "That person is elusive, especially adept at stealth assassinations, vicious tactics, yet his combat power is exceptionally strong, invincible in the same realm, and his realm-breaking swift and unmatched, a genius never seen before."
Though he was from an opposing faction, even Heaven-Burning couldn’t say anything against Jiang Shu’s genius.
"Exactly right!"
Jiang Shu clenched his fist abruptly, his joints emitting clear explosive sounds, a dark golden aura flowing rapidly over his body, the newly-born power of the Demon Venerable surging and swirling, vividly showcasing the spirit of the Ancestor Dragon bloodline inheritor.
"Know yourself and your enemy, and you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles!"
"He can spy on our race from the shadows; why can’t I do the same and infiltrate the Human Clan?"
"Strike him at his most unexpected and complacent moment with a fatal blow!"
He stepped forward, eyes blazing, staring into Huang Ya’s eyes, burning with ambition and the flames of revenge.
"The Emperor Palace is setting up for me; how can I care about superficial fame!"
"Having achieved the Demon’s Venerable Realm and bearing the Ancestor Dragon bloodline, I should step into human territory and hunt Jiang Shu."
"Jiang Shu’s head will be the best gift offered to the Emperor Palace!"
Huang Ya’s cloudy old eyes flickered, excitement on his face replaced by a trace of solemnity.
Without the Demon Lord involved, given Jiang Taixuan’s means, ordinary Demon Venerables can hardly apprehend him.
And the presence of Demon Venerables in the middle to late stage, each one has long been known by the Human Clan.
It is extremely difficult to penetrate the Human Clan.
Golden Horn’s words, turning the dark into the bright, inversely infiltrating the human core; this idea is bold, but possessing the Ancestor Dragon bloodline, is exceedingly miraculous.
Just from seeing the previous probing by the Heaven-Burning Ancestor, even the half-step Heaven-Burning Demon Lord could resist.
No matter how strong Jiang Shu is, he’s actually just comparable to a Demon Venerable in the Middle Stage.
Although Golden Horn is a new Demon Venerable, his current strength should be no weaker than Jiang Shu at that time.
If successful, the gains are massive!
That Jiang Taixuan previously used this method to severely damage the Demon Race; if Golden Horn can emulate and succeed, it would definitely be a shot of adrenaline for the Demon Race.
Especially the present Golden Horn Demon Venerable, with such potential, simply staying in the Demon Domain receiving honors, once leaving the shelter of the Starfall Abyss array, the target is too conspicuous, and it is easy for the Human Clan to detect.
"The method is indeed a good one, but infiltrating human territory is far too dangerous!"
Huang Ya frowned tightly, worry seemed genuine.
"Dangerous?"
Jiang Shu’s lips curled into a Dragon Clan arrogant smile, imbued with world-surveying confidence.
"Senior Huang Ya, have you perhaps forgotten my bloodline?"
"The Demon’s Venerable Realm within two days I will have stabilized, ordinary Human Race Daoist Venerables will hardly see through it."
"Moreover, I have my own means of protection."
He paused, looking at Huang Ya.
"If the senior is truly worried, could you grant me some accompanying objects so that I may better deliver the substantial gifts prepared for Jiang Taixuan’s hands?"
Huang Ya looked at the Dragon Clan’s new Venerable before him, full of murderous intent and brimming with battle spirit, the domineering fortune belonging to the Ancestor Dragon bloodline and the unequivocal revenge plan occupied the thought of "protecting future hope" in his mind.
Perhaps... this is truly the most suitable path for Golden Horn.
The Emperor Palace needs to deter the Human Clan not with celebratory gongs and drums but with a peerless Demon Venerable from the Demon Race, a thunderous explosion in the heart of the Human Clan!
If this gift becomes reality, it will be enough to shock the universe!
It might even allow the Demon Race to counterattack.
At the very least, it attracts the attention of many Human Race Daoist Venerables.
Allowing the Emperor Palace more time to lay out plans.
Now, it is the critical time of the Great Array.
If the Ten Thousand Spirits Casting Venerable Array could advance further, it might even infinitely approach the legendary Immortal Array.
As for Golden Horn’s danger, at worst, give him more treasures to protect himself.
Thoughts cleared, Huang Ya hesitated no more.
"Good!"
"Golden Horn Demon Venerable has such ambitious aspirations, how could I not support him?"
He waved his frail hand, several light spots of different colors and deep aura flew towards Jiang Shu.
"These are the core refinement projections of the Star Coffin, greatly linked with the Abyss Core. At the brink of life and death, they can invoke a trace of array hub power to protect the Primordial Spirit and flesh, ensuring the Divine Soul remains intact at critical moments!"
"This is a Domain-breaking Blood Talisman refined with Kunpeng Essence Blood, containing a trace of Space Origin, tens of thousands of miles in an instant, even when trapped in Space Imprisonment, it has a great chance to tear open a gap!"
Saying this, Huang Ya first glanced at the Heaven-Burning Ancestor, who looked somewhat displeased, with a chuckle, then pointed to a Phoenix Feather swirling with red gold flame patterns and continued:
"This item is a Nirvana Feather refined from the Phoenix Clan’s body, containing pure Phoenix Fire Origin, it draws upon its Nirvana Rebirth power to nourish the body, suppress injuries, though not true Nirvana Rebirth, its effects in healing and life-saving are exceptional!"
Not for anything else, that’s precisely from the Phoenix Clan, and the ancestor of the Phoenix Clan is watching beside him, though with unclear consciousness, Huang Ya’s apprehension is understandable.
After all, the current Heaven-Burning Demon Lord, is still only at the Half-step Demon Lord Realm.
In terms of Realm, still stronger than Huang Ya.
Having handed these precious items over to Jiang Shu, Huang Ya stepped close, his voice lowered, a trace of unprecedented cold kill and doubt flickered in his cloudy old eyes.
"Golden Horn Demon Venerable, aside from the Human Clan, you need to be especially wary of the Kunpeng Clan."
"I have a feeling the Kunpeng Clan performed excessively quiet during this trial."
"Especially Xuan Ling, his Space Path utilization is seamless, unlike the younger generation."
"I have a sense of something hidden beneath the water, unseen."
Jiang Shu understood within, outwardly he solemnly nodded, putting those life-saving items into his Sleeve Universe.
"Rest assured, Senior Huang Ya, the Kunpeng Clan, I am prepared."
"This awareness, Golden Horn has noted."
Huang Ya gave Jiang Shu’s shoulder a firm pat, speaking: "Be careful in all things!"
"When you return victorious, I shall personally petition the Emperor Palace for you!"
"I will not fail!"
Jiang Shu returned a gaze filled with strength and promise.
He no longer looked at the Heaven-Burning Ancestor on the high platform, chaotic aura and inscrutable gaze, he stepped back a few steps, both hands fiercely ripped open the void in front!
Rip!
The action was concise and powerful, only to see with a casual wave, a few-feet wide, gaping darkness-like Fierce Beast mouth instantly formed in front of him.
The breath of Space Turbulence roared from within, blowing his dark golden hair wild.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Jiang Shu lifted his foot to step into the rift, escaping vast distances.
However, just as half his body was about to vanish into that space rift.
"Jiang! Shu!!"
A soul-shattering roar exploded, like billions of volcanoes erupting in an instant.
The monstrous soundwave carried boiling murderous intent, melting hatred, and the madness of shattering everything, turned into a substantial wave of sound and blood, fiercely crashed towards Jiang Shu!
On the high platform, the image of the Heaven-Burning Ancestor completely blurred.
The white robe fluttered wildly, revealing the redness-scale-covered skin beneath.
The molten gold pupils at this moment burned into two tangible suns, spraying scorching flames several feet.
He stared fixedly at the figure about to vanish into the closing space rift, capturing strands of nearly undetectable desolate and creation power from within the space, finally recognizing Jiang Shu’s true identity.
Previous conjectures, doubts, confusion, at this moment, all were confirmed!
The Demon Lord, transcending above the Space Dao, already mastered the rules of time.
No matter how much time passed, he remains vividly clear of the various means Jiang Shu used to escape from him previously.
Though, at this moment, he is only at the Half-step Demon Lord Realm!
