Chapter 219: 219 Kills

“Would you like to use the Life Simulator? Each use will consume four energy slots.”

Gu Yang does not hesitate and murmurs, “Yes.”

Lines of text appear before his eyes. He glimpses the words ‘kill Emperor Zhao Yi’ and is instantly resolute. He dismisses the rest of the content.

“Simulation complete, you can keep one of the following.”

“I choose the first one.”

Immediately, the True Essence within Gu Yang surges again. The depleted Phoenix source within him also recovers greatly.

At this time, the constantly changing black fog starts to calm down. After a hair-raising noise of chewing, the black fog returns to the body of the Emperor.

His power is expanding continuously and in a blink of an eye, it has crossed that threshold to the realm of Divine Power.

Golden Body one-fold, two-fold, three-fold…

Finally, he enters the realm of Mana!

The dragon-robed Zhao Yi is floating in the air. All around him, the Vitality of the heaven and earth is continually converging.

Finally, he opens his eyes – a sensation of unprecedented strength makes him enthralled.

This is the power he had once dreamed of!

Now, it feels like the whole world is in his own hands. Wherever his eyes go, it is his Domain.

Zhao Yi turns his head, looking at the person who dares to offend his dignity. His lips part slightly and he speaks, “The Emperor sentences you to death!”

Meanwhile, Gu Yang has arrived next to the dragon throne, holding the National Jade Seal in his hand.

The moment his hand touches this seal, the dragon engraved on it seems to come alive, rising into the air, and transforming into a Golden Dragon, soaring the sky.

In a twinkle, the invisible force that was suppressing his True Essence disappeared.

Meanwhile, inside Gu Yang’s head, several points of light light up, connected by invisible threads that crisscross each other, forming a gigantic array.

This array, whose range is unknown, stretches upwards into the void.

On the other hand, it connects to unknown places deep underground.

This discovery shocks him.

The entire palace is merely an eye of a large array.

And this jade seal is the core of the array eye of the palace.

With his strength, he can’t push the power of this large array.

All he can do is constrain someone’s power within the scope of the palace.

Gu Yang looks at Emperor Zhao Yi. His gaze pierces through his body, seeing the Taoist shadow behind him and coldly declares, “You should not have come here.”

The Phoenix Feather Knife in his hand bursts into a raging flame.

God Extermination, Skyfire Incineration!

Suddenly, Zhao Yi feels the power within him being suppressed by an invisible force. It’s as if he has been knocked down the abyss just when he flew to the cloud.

Just a second ago, he was feeling great, wanting to crush the insignificant man before his eyes. The next moment, the invincible power he just acquired disappeared.

Behind him, a figure gets peeled off, continually warping and changing like a monster, desperately trying to flee the Great Hall.

Under the influence of the palace’s power field, its power is rapidly fading.

This is the power of the Heavenly Extreme Taoist who possessed the Emperor and sensing danger, he immediately leaves the Emperor behind.

Before he could escape from the Great Hall, Skyfire descends.

“No”

The black shadow screams, as if piercing through one’s eardrum. The next second, the figure is engulfed by the flames.

Hiss

Within this spooky scream, the shadow disintegrates under the flames of the Skyfire and is completely obliterated.

The power of the Heavenly Extreme Taoist is destroyed!

Elsewhere, after losing the power of the Heavenly Extreme Taoist, Emperor Zhao Yi grows incredibly weak and stands there trembling, like an elderly man close to his death.

He looks crazed, stumbling after the black shadow pleading, “My… my power, don’t run…”

“No”

Seeing the black shadow getting burnt into ashes under the Skyfire, he despairs, tripping over something and falling to the ground, bleeding heavily from his head.

Outside the Great Hall, a figure walks in.

Zhao Yi sees the figure, his eyes lighting up, he murmers, “Ning… Yian, you didn’t die…”

He stretches out his hand, as if wanting to grab the figure.

The person doesn’t pause, passing him by.

“Ning Yian!”

His hand falls helplessly, he draws his last breath.

It has finally ended.

Looking at the extinguishing life force of Emperor Zhao Yi, Gu Yang feels somewhat conflicted.

In truth, the Emperor was also a pitiful person.

At the end of his life, he called out the empress’s name and even mistook Miss Su Er for the empress. He could be deemed a lovesick fool.

Prior to the emperor’s demise, it was Miss Su Er who appeared in the Great Hall.

She directly walked over to the body of the empress. Looking at her sister’s remains, her expression was extremely complex.

Seeing her grief-stricken state, Gu Yang felt helpless. All he could say was, “Condolences.”

Miss Su Er had no reaction. She crouched down, gripping the empress’s corpse.

The empress’s body then started to dissipate and eventually transformed into a pearl, which flew into the brow of Miss Su Er in a flash.

What the hell?

This change was completely beyond Gu Yang’s expectation.

A living person, had turned into a pearl.

Next, Miss Su Er’s momentum kept escalating, and her True Essence was surging.

“This…”

Gu Yang watched as she swiftly broke through to the second level of Golden Body. A moment later, she broke through to the third level…

She advanced vigorously, and finally, innumerable vitality of Heaven and Earth began to converge towards her.

After she achieved the Mana Realm, it finally stopped.

“Chi Pearl, external incarnation!”

In the Great Hall, the experienced old minister said with a miserable smile, “So it turns out that the empress of Great Zhou was just an external incarnation of someone else. What a good strategy, playing the world at your fingers.”

Chi Pearl?

External incarnation?

Gu Yang finally understood.

So Miss Su Er was the empress, and the empress was Miss Su Er. These two people, one was the original body, the other was an incarnation.

Holy crap

What a game they played.

Just as Gu Yang was thinking, he suddenly altered his face and looked upwards.

He instantly transformed into a silhouette and appeared outside the Great Hall, seeing a large black vortex forming in the sky.

At the center of the vortex, a giant face protruded from within.

A chaotic and evil aura emanated from the vortex as it expanded, causing one’s heart to palpitate.

The Heavenly Venerable of the Red Bright Heaven!

The incredibly wicked being who wanted to turn the human realm into purgatory, the greatest adversary of all humanity.

If it arrives at the Divine City, with Dean Wen being dead, it won’t be long before humanity faces an unprecedented calamity.

Gu Yang held the Imperial Seal in his hand, crazily channeling all his True Essence into it.

In an instant, the entire palace began to respond. A golden dragon flew out from the seal, whirling around in the sky, and the array was about to be activated.

Up in the sky, the vortex momentarily halted.

That giant face, composed of black energy and non-human, looked at him.

Gu Yang boldly glared back.

On the other side, an immense sword intent was ready to be unleashed.

The giant face opened its mouth and spat out two words, “Gu Yang!”

The vicious voice echoed in the sky, as if it could stir up the most primal hatred and killing intent in people’s hearts.

The face slowly retracted.

The vortex in the sky slowly disappeared, restoring tranquility.

“That was close!”

Gu Yang wiped away some cold sweat. Just now, his True Essence was almost depleted; he was far from activating the array.

If that Heavenly Venerable had descended despite everything, he would have been unable to activate the array.

Luckily, he managed to frighten the enemy away with mere show of strength.

With this, he had truly saved the world.

Of course, more importantly, he had saved himself.

Looking at the Imperial Seal in his hand, Gu Yang wanted to take it away.

This Imperial Seal was an Abnormal Treasure. With it, he could be unrestricted in the palace.

Wonder how many units of energy it is worth?

The God-Slaying Knife was a Magic Treasure, worth twenty units of energy.

This Imperial Seal, the core of the palace array, surely had a worth significantly greater than that of the God-Slaying Knife.

Gu Yang was strongly tempted to exchange it for energy.

However, in the end, he restrained himself. It wasn’t time yet, as it was the key to confront that Heavenly Venerable.

Having obtained the mandate of the “Nine Heavens Divine Method”, he tossed the seal back into the Great Hall, saying, “You owe me a favor.”

Having said that, he turned around and left.

“Did I forget something?”

When Gu Yang was about to leave the palace, a thought flashed across his mind.

“Right, Senior Wen!”
