Chapter 335 The Number One Person on the Continent! Five Races Seek Peace! The Soul Clan's Invi
"You can handle this matter. I have another question for you..."
Chu Yang didn't dwell on the topic of the sect leader's successor. Instead, he frowned and asked, "After we left, did you receive any news about Brother Monkey and Aunt Yun?"
This was something that Chu Yang had always found puzzling, because before leaving the Yunlan Sect, Chu Yang had granted access to the Black Tower to both Sun Wukong and Yun Yun.
In this way, no matter where they are, they can always contact Nalan through the Black Tower.
It can also be used as a transit point to connect with the Pangu computing core and link up with Chu Yang.
This method of communication is quite convenient. When they parted ways, Chu Yang had said that they could keep in touch regularly or ask for help when they encountered trouble.
But so much time has passed, and there has been no news of Sun Wukong and Yun Yun. Only Nalan Yanran occasionally confides her troubles or shares her experiences with Chu Yang through the Black Tower.
"I've tried contacting them, but it's been like throwing a stone into the sea; I haven't received any response." Nalan Yanran frowned, looking worried.
Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "Don't be too nervous. The Black Tower can detect their life signals. If something really happens, I will know immediately."
"Although their vital signs are somewhat unstable, they are not yet at a life-threatening level."
The so-called life signal is Pangu's backup of Sun Wukong and Yunyun's data. If the two die, Pangu can detect the data change immediately.
It was precisely because their condition was detected to be somewhat unstable that Chu Yang asked Nalan Yanran for advice.
He wasn't worried about Sun Wukong; that guy's strength and progress were not to be underestimated, and his ability to protect himself was top-notch.
On the contrary, if Yun Yun had met the old sect leader of the Flower Sect as in the original plot and had given him food and water for two years, how could such a drastic data fluctuation have occurred?
The dramatic fluctuations in the data indicate that although there is no immediate danger to their lives, their situation is far from optimistic.
Chu Yang didn't know if something went wrong, or if Yun Yun hadn't met the old sect master of the Flower Sect, but instead encountered other opportunities or dangers.
Gathering his thoughts, Chu Yang said softly, "I will be refining some pills in the coming days, which will attract pill lightning. Please inform the disciples and elders in advance so they don't need to be nervous."
"A pill? The Bodhi Great Rejuvenation Pill?" Nalan Yanran was slightly taken aback.
Chu Yang shook his head and said, "I don't have the formula for the Bodhi Great Rejuvenation Pill right now, and Huo'er hasn't reached the peak of Dou Zun yet, so there's no rush."
Nalan Yanran nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and chatted with him for a long time before taking her leave.
Interestingly, before Chu Yang returned, Nalan Yanran confided in him through the Black Tower, treating it as a safe space to confide in him.
However, when the two faced each other, the girl was somewhat reserved. After all, Chu Yang's status and strength were undeniable, and Nalan Yanran was far behind, so it was inevitable that she would have some reservations.
This is unavoidable; the concept of "might makes right" is ingrained in the bones of everyone on the Dou Qi Continent, and it will be difficult to change in a short period of time.
After Nalan Yanran left, Chu Yang took out the Mountain Melting Cauldron and borrowed a strange fire from Tang Huo'er from afar to start the furnace and refine medicine.
For half a month, thunderclouds lingered above the Yunlan Sect, and the streaks of Nine Profound Golden Lightning that roared down turned the back of Yunlan Mountain into a forbidden zone for life.
Not to mention the disciples and elders, even Xiao Xiao and Nalan Yanran dared not rush in.
Meanwhile, the entire Dou Qi Continent was in an uproar because of the events in the Jia Ma Empire.
In particular, in Zhouzhongzhou, all the major first-rate forces on the surface unanimously gathered their strength and restrained their disciples, fearing conflict with the Yunlan Sect or offending Chu Yang.
Chu Yang's name once again resounded throughout the continent!
Last time, everyone only knew him as a prodigy, whose talent was unparalleled throughout history.
But this time, people realized that Chu Yang had transformed his talent into strength!
The images of the battlefield in the Gama Empire spread throughout the continent. After obtaining the images, the seven ancient races and the three magical beast races immediately convened a high-level meeting.
Their final result caused a sensation throughout the entire Central Plains!
Although it is impossible to confirm whether Chu Yang's strength has reached the Dou Di level, it is certain that he has far surpassed the peak of Dou Sheng!
Half-Emperor!
This is a special realm established by the powerful figures of Zhongzhou specifically for Chu Yang, meaning above the Dou Sheng realm but not yet reaching the Emperor realm.
Of course, this was more of a self-comforting thought for them, because they were unwilling to admit that a Dou Di powerhouse would suddenly appear on the Dou Qi Continent.
Meanwhile, some old guys who had stopped at the peak of Dou Sheng for many years were well aware that the Dou Qi Continent lacked a certain quality, so that no one could step into the Emperor Realm.
If that's the case, then Chu Yang is most likely not a Dou Di, but rather a Dou Sheng at the peak of his power.
However, they did not know that Chu Yang's realm had not even reached the peak of Dou Sheng. He had only just broken through to the five-star Dou Sheng after the battle in the Jia Ma Empire!
If they knew this, they would understand that whether Chu Yang was a true Dou Di was no longer important.
A five-star Dou Sheng already possesses power close to that of a Dou Di. So, when he breaks through to the peak of Dou Sheng, wouldn't he be able to contend with a true Dou Di?
In Zhongzhou today, besides the obvious first-rate forces, namely the One Palace, One Tower, Two Sects, Three Valleys, and Four Directions Pavilion, there is also a completely new division of transcendent forces.
Ten clans under one lineage!
People have come to regard the Yunlan Sect as an existence comparable to the seven ancient races and the three magical beast races. Even though the Yunlan Sect's overall strength is not enough, its foundation is weaker than any of the races, and it is also backed by Chu Yang, the strongest person on the continent today!
But just as Chu Yang's matter was causing a great stir, another piece of news emerged, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, shocking all the powerful figures on the continent.
Even those who are proud and arrogant have to admit that, looking at the history of the Dou Qi Continent, Chu Yang is definitely the number one person throughout history!
Nine-fold golden lightning descended upon Yunlan Mountain, continuing uninterrupted for a full half-month!
Considering the Nine-Headed Golden Lightning that had appeared above the Pill Tower, and Elder Lin, the Pill Tower's Grand Elder, personally going to the Jia Ma Empire to aid the Yunlan Sect, everyone understood...
That short-lived ninth-grade Golden Core alchemy master, how could he be a member of the Pill Tower?
That's clearly Chu Yang!
A young half-emperor, he ascended to the pinnacle of the continent's powerhouses and stood at the top of the alchemist pyramid. Even among the brilliant and dazzling Dou Di powerhouses of ancient times, probably none could compare to him.
This made everyone realize that the Dou Qi Continent was about to undergo a major change!
In the past, the Central Continent of Dou Qi was a gathering place for the strong. First-class forces each dominated their own region, while transcendent forces stood above all living beings, at the highest point of the Dou Qi Continent.
But from that moment on, Yunlan Sect became the heaven of the Dou Qi Continent, and Chu Yang became the ruler of the Nine Heavens!
Realizing this, various forces on the continent, centered in the Northwest region, began to send envoys, carrying valuable treasures, to visit the Yunlan Sect.
I don't seek to get close to this powerful figure; I only wish to establish a good relationship with them and avoid becoming enemies.
All of this was within Chu Yang's expectations.
One of his purposes in refining the ninth-grade golden pill at Yunlan Mountain was to reveal his identity as a master of ninth-grade golden pill refining, thus combining the titles of the strongest person and the strongest alchemist on the continent.
Another purpose was to obtain the Nine Profound Golden Thunder!
As his strength continued to improve, the Five Great Masters of Chaos began to find themselves somewhat stretched thin.
Therefore, Chu Yang had long ago considered enhancing the Five Absolutes of Chaos, or more accurately, enhancing the power of the Five Elements.
It was this inspiration that led him to devise a method to help Burning Flame Valley resolve its hidden dangers through the Five Great Techniques of Chaos.
Compared to the Burning Flame Valley, the potential of the Five Great Masters of Chaos in Chu Yang's hands is undoubtedly higher.
The first choice for the power of thunder spirit is naturally the Nine Profound Golden Thunder.
Yunlan Mountain, the back mountain.
Chu Yang controlled a ninth-grade golden pill that had rushed out of the medicine cauldron and was trying to escape, then put it into the jade screen and stored it in his storage ring.
A faint golden light emanated from his chest, which was the power of the Thunder Spirit that had completely transformed into the Nine Profound Golden Thunder.
"Thus, only the four elements of wind, water, fire, and earth remain..."
Chu Yang stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and then vanished from the spot in a flash.
In the main hall, upon seeing Chu Yang's sudden arrival, the elders who were discussing matters bowed respectfully, their eyes filled with reverence.
"I was just about to come find you. The five ancient clans, excluding the Soul Clan and the Thunder Clan, have already sent all the medicinal herbs!"
Nalan Yanran took out five storage rings and handed them to Chu Yang, then added, "In addition, the ancient clan provided double the amount of medicinal herbs and sent someone with a message..."
"The clan chief said that what happened back then was done by an elder who acted on his own initiative. He has severely punished that person and hopes that we will not take this matter to heart."
"Consider the extra medicine as an apology."
"He also said that the young patriarch of the ancient clan and Xiao Yan were childhood sweethearts, and hoped that you could let this matter go for Xiao Yan's sake."
As she spoke, a hint of mockery flickered between Nalan Yanran's brows.
Even a fool could guess that the events of that time were definitely orchestrated by the higher-ups of the ancient clan. How could the clan leader, as the head of the ancient clan, be completely unaware of such a grand and far-reaching mission to send people to the Jia Ma Empire?
Now, the desire to spend money to avoid disaster has even drawn in Xiao Yan's influence, all because they fear Chu Yang will settle scores later.
Chu Yang knew more than Nalan Yanran.
The ancient clan had always interfered in the relationship between Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er, and they even had their eyes on the Emperor Jade in the Xiao family's possession.
Now they're using Xiao Yan as a shield; they've really lost all sense of shame.
However, Chu Yang didn't care. The three ancient races had suffered a great loss back then, and they hadn't caused any trouble afterward, so Chu Yang was too lazy to bother with them.
"There's one more thing..."
Nalan Yanran hesitated, then said with a strange expression, "The Soul Clan has sent an invitation, inviting you to visit the Soul Realm..."
"A trap?" Chu Yang raised an eyebrow, then shook his head and chuckled, "I doubt they'd have the guts..."
Nalan Yanran scoffed, "Now that six of the seven ancient clans are seeking peace and goodwill, the Soul Clan is isolated and helpless. How could they possibly dare to cause you trouble?"
Just then, the portly old man, who resembled Maitreya Buddha, suddenly cupped his hands and said, "Sect Master, Chief, may I interject?"
Chu Yang was somewhat amused and exasperated. "I'm not a bloodthirsty demon. We're all on the same side, so why be so careful with your words?"
The portly old man chuckled awkwardly and said, "As far as I know, the small worlds of the seven ancient clans all possess the foundations left behind by Dou Di (Battle Emperors). If the Soul Clan truly intends to fight to the death with the Chief, we must be on guard!"
Chu Yang smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's alright. Even if it were an ancient Dou Di reborn, let alone the foundation left behind by a Dou Di, it wouldn't be able to cause much of a stir."
Hearing Chu Yang's confident tone, the fat old man's pupils contracted slightly, then he chuckled and said, "Since the chief is so confident, the Soul Clan is probably in for a lot of trouble..."
Chu Yang looked at Nalan Yanran and asked, "Did the person who sent the invitation say why I'm being invited to the Soul Realm?"
Nalan Yanran pouted and said, "They said they were inviting you to a banquet to apologize and, incidentally, to punish the culprit behind the whole thing in front of you."
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow. "Soul Annihilation?"
Nalan Yanran nodded and said, "That's right! The Soul Clan pushed the Soul Palace out, trying to sacrifice the pawn to save the king, and made Soul Extinction a scapegoat."
"That does seem like the Soul Clan's style, but things aren't so easily fooled. I want to see just how much sincerity they can muster!" Chu Yang said with a playful smile.
"Then...when will you set off?" Nalan Yanran's expression was somewhat unnatural.
It was originally agreed that Chu Yang would stay for a month, but now that this has happened, he will probably leave earlier than planned.
"Since I said I'd stay for a month, I won't break my promise!" Chu Yang looked at Nalan Yanran teasingly.
Nalan Yanran blushed slightly, then frowned and asked, "But what about the Soul Clan?"
Chu Yang narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing within them. "Let them wait!"
Whether this matter can be resolved amicably or not depends entirely on my mood.
"If they're willing to wait, I'll go to the Soul Realm in half a month. If they can't wait..."
"Then let's settle both the old and new scores!"
Upon hearing this, the elders in the hall were all shaken, and their sense of belonging and honor to the sect soared.
Some of the younger female elders had their eyes sparkling with admiration, as if they would offer themselves to Chu Yang at the slightest beckoning.
Chu Yang changed the subject and asked, "Has the location for the directional teleportation array been chosen?"
Nalan Yanran nodded and said, "It's been chosen, and we can start setting up at any time."
"Elder Jin, please take Junior Brother there. I will arrive shortly after I have finished arranging matters within the sect."
The portly old man nodded, gestured to Chu Yang, and bowed slightly, saying, "Chief, please!"
Chu Yang followed the fat old man out of the main hall. Nalan Yanran began to arrange many things. After the elders' meeting ended, all the elders left, leaving only some young female elders.
These people usually have a good relationship with Nalan Yanran; they are close friends and occasionally sit together to watch dramas on Black Tower.
As Nalan Yanran abandoned her sect leader's airs and sat down with everyone, the female elders immediately started chattering.
"Sect Master, I heard that you and our Chief are childhood sweethearts?" A female elder's eyes lit up.
Another person added, "How come I heard... that the Chief once pursued the Sect Master?"
Another person glared and said, "Nonsense! It was clearly the sect leader who pursued the chief disciple!" (End of Chapter)
