Becoming Great Emperor by Playing Game-Chapter 516: Demon Soul Banner
Yellow Emperor!
Sun Wukong and the other two tightly watched that direction, their hearts full of shock.
There’s actually such a person who taught humans to make fire, even comprehending cultivation techniques on their own and passing them on to humans. Such merit is perhaps unmatched.
No, Pangu and Nuwa probably count as unmatched.
"Stay here, I’ll be back soon," Chen Lan said, casually setting up a barrier, and then disappeared.
On the other side of Blue Star, a gigantic statue stood tall. Chen Lan appeared out of nowhere, looking at this female statue, silent.
This is Nuwa’s statue. With the resurgence of Spiritual Qi, she reappeared on earth, and this should be Nuwa Village.
He left something here, and it is time to retrieve it.
Using his Divine Sense, he scanned below him where there was a village, but the people in this village were strange. They weren’t quite human; their lower bodies were those of snakes while their upper bodies were human, typical Snake-men.
And this is Nuwa’s true form. Nuwa has the head of a human with the body of a snake, but most of the time she appeared human so as not to frighten others.
This village originated from a drop of her fresh blood swallowed by a female cultivator, who transformed into a being identical to Nuwa, with a human head and snake body. Over time, they multiplied, eventually forming Nuwa Village.
He sealed a crucial item here, something that can counter the heavens, and he has returned for it.
Back then, he couldn’t bring it with him, so he joined forces with Nuwa, Pangu, and others to seal it in Nuwa Village, where Nuwa’s descendants have guarded it for generations.
He flashed into the village, where the busy descendants of Nuwa were shocked and raised their weapons upon seeing Chen Lan.
"Who goes there? This is Nuwa Village, leave immediately!" a middle-aged man shouted coldly, exuding the aura of a Taoist Saint.
Chen Lan knew they were merely cautious of strangers, so he calmly spoke, "I left something here, called the Demon Soul Banner."
Upon hearing those last three words, everyone was visibly startled and lowered their weapons. The same man spoke again, surprised, "Are you the Demon Emperor?"
They had been guarding this item for generations, the Demon Soul Banner, which Nuwa herself had specially instructed them to protect, saying that one day a person claiming to be the Demon Emperor would come for it.
As long as that person releases Demonic Qi, the Demon Soul Banner will react.
Chen Lan nodded slightly.
"Then, Demon Emperor, can you release a bit of Demonic Qi?"
Without hesitation, Chen Lan released a thread of Demonic Qi.
As the Demonic Qi was released, the ground of Nuwa Village suddenly began to tremble violently, shocking everyone as this was induced by the Demon Soul Banner reacting below.
This person is truly the Demon Emperor!
Thud!
Everyone knelt simultaneously. Nuwa had told them that the Demon Emperor’s identity was extraordinary, equal to hers, and they should not offend him.
"Greetings, Demon Emperor!"
Chen Lan nodded slightly, "Take me to the Demon Soul Banner."
Soon, the middle-aged man led Chen Lan through a tunnel to a stone door. When the stone door opened, what met his eyes was the black Demon Soul Banner, suspended in the air.
With just a wave of his hand, Chen Lan partially lifted the seal on the Demon Soul Banner.
In an instant, the Demon Soul Banner emitted terrifying and eerie wails, and a black vapor shot straight into the sky, creating a Celestial Cave.
"Suppress!" Chen Lan commanded coldly as Demonic Qi gushed out, surging into the Demon Soul Banner to suppress all the vengeful souls inside, calming the Banner down.
Instantly, the Demon Soul Banner flew into his hand.
Chen Lan hadn’t expected that after a million years, the vengeful souls within the Demon Soul Banner hadn’t been refined. Those souls were indeed stubborn.
The seal wasn’t fully lifted yet. Once completely undone, the vengeful souls would become even more frenzied, but it was also a powerful weapon as the souls could devour other vengeful souls.
This was the reason the Evil Race of the heavens feared him: the Demon Soul Banner could absorb those vengeful souls.
The vengeful souls of those Evil Race were too bizarre, different from ordinary souls, capable of revival even after destruction.
Only his Devouring Demon God Technique, Demonic Qi, and this Demon Soul Banner could restrain the heavenly Evil Race.
At that moment, Chen Lan slightly lifted his gaze, sensing the arrival of the Yellow Emperor.
"Thank you," Chen Lan said to the middle-aged man, tossing him a Storage Ring.
They had helped guard it for so long; some reward was due.
Subsequently, he left the tunnel and ascended to the sky above.
At this moment, an elderly man in a white robe with a weathered face stood in front of him.
"A fellow Taoist, your aura is steeped in killing intent," the Yellow Emperor said lightly.
In his eyes, Chen Lan’s entire being was shrouded in dark mist, with killing intent, Demonic Qi, and Ghost Qi, signifying countless slaughters and marking him as a heinous demon, with innumerable deaths attributed to him!
"Yellow Emperor, are you seeking trouble with me right after your revival?" Chen Lan replied calmly.
He knew the Yellow Emperor was one to abhor evil. On his previous visits, they’d fought once, and if not for Nuwa’s intervention, he might have already slain the Yellow Emperor.
Nuwa had said back then, the Yellow Emperor was the Human Ancestor, and killing him would greatly diminish the Human Race’s fortune, so he didn’t slay him.
This time, the Yellow Emperor came seeking confrontation again.
Upon hearing Chen Lan’s words, the Yellow Emperor squinted slightly, his murky eyes fixated on Chen Lan, feeling a sense of familiarity.
"It seems you’ve forgotten me after such a long slumber. I don’t wish to battle you. If not for Nuwa’s intervention last time, you’d be dead," Chen Lan said peacefully.
An aura of invincibility subtly emanated from Chen Lan.
Seeing this, the Yellow Emperor’s pupils constricted, as he recalled.
"You’re the Demon Emperor, and you’ve stepped into the Path of Invincibility," the Yellow Emperor commented in surprise.
After so many years, the Demon Emperor had stepped into the Path of Invincibility, exuding an aura of invincibility in demeanor and speech, wholly confident in his prowess.
Such is the essence of the Path of Invincibility—always believing oneself to be unrivaled and fearless of anyone, growing ever stronger in the process. Once fear sets in, the Dao heart breaks!
"Without Nuwa this time, do you still wish to fight?"
Upon these words, the Yellow Emperor’s face turned heavy, for that was a provocation, implying that Nuwa’s previous presence spared him from death.
This time, without Nuwa, engaging in battle would be a path to death.
"The heavens are about to return; now is not the time for you and I to fight. If you truly care for the Human Race, retreat and recover your full strength. We’ll speak after the battle," Chen Lan stated, turning to leave without being stopped by the Yellow Emperor.
He was already stunned by Chen Lan’s words.
The heavens are about to return?
Is that epic battle about to restart?
Gradually, the Yellow Emperor’s eyes narrowed in cold determination. In the last battle, the Immortal Ancient Realm was decimated, forcing him to slumber until this era.
This time, he must not let the Evil Race of the heavens succeed.
As the Human Ancestor, he should lead the Human Race and fight across the world!
