Chapter 152 is on the table, I'll handle it!
Chu Yang witnessed the power of a hodgepodge once again!
I never dreamed that the two worlds would be connected in this way.
Chu Yang took a deep breath and asked, "Senior Zixuan, I want to know if there are any other people on the other side of the Ten Thousand Mountains."
Zixuan asked in surprise, "How do you know that there are living beings on the other side of the Ten Thousand Mountains? That continent is called Shenzhou."
really!
Chu Yang continued, "There should be sects similar to the Shu Mountain Sect over there—"
Zi Xuan nodded and said, "That's right, there are also cultivation sects over there. The largest of them has quite a connection with your Shu Mountain Sect."
Chu Yang wanted to press further, but Zi Xuan spoke first: "That's all I know. If you're interested, you can go back and ask Sect Leader Qingwei. He should be able to give you the answer."
"This past event involves the reputation of the Nuwa clan. No matter how wrong Linglong is, she is still the Holy Maiden. Her fate is intertwined with that of the Nuwa clan. I hope you know this and don't spread it around."
Chu Yang nodded.
Zi Xuan said solemnly, "With your skills, you can move freely in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Those so-called barbarians pose no threat to you. The only place you should be careful of is the Demon-Suppressing Cave. Never go there!"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "Senior, rest assured, I always do things with caution and never take risks."
Zi Xuan continued to instruct, "Make sure you memorize everything Ming Yuanqing gave you before going to the Ten Thousand Mountains. The barbarians are not scary, but the poisonous creatures in the deep mountains are not to be trifled with. If you are not careful, not only you, but even Qingwei could be in trouble."
Chu Yang noticed something amiss in Zi Xuan's expression and asked, "Senior, are you planning to leave?"
Zixuan nodded dejectedly. "You've seen Ming Yuanqing's attitude towards me, so there's no point in me staying here any longer. I need to do something to atone for my sins."
Chu Yang cupped his hands in congratulations and said, "Congratulations on finally achieving enlightenment, Senior. May I ask where you wish to go?"
Zi Xuan was silent for a moment, then said gently, "Just as you said before, I'm going to Yuzhou City to see Ling'er. I hope I can make up for the lack of affection I couldn't give Qing'er by doing it for her."
"That's good. I hope you have a safe journey and that your wishes come true."
Chu Yang expressed his heartfelt wishes to Zi Xuan, still believing that Zi Xuan had done nothing wrong in pursuing love. Even if the Witch Queen Qing'er sacrificed herself, the blame should be directed at Bai Yue and the Water Demon Beast.
That's the real culprit.
Zi Xuan did not step into the Nuwa Temple again, but left without looking back. Although the Holy Spirit Pearl was severely damaged, she still had enough magic power to return to the Central Plains.
Chu Yang had already investigated before he arrived and found that Bai Yue was not in Nanzhao Kingdom at the time, so there was no need to worry about Zi Xuan's safety.
After watching Zi Xuan leave, Chu Yang entered the Nuwa Temple. Nuwa, who had been silent just now, suddenly spoke.
"Young friend, thank you for your help to the Nuwa Clan. Both Zixuan and Zhao Ling'er have benefited greatly from you."
Chu Yang bowed and said, "Your Majesty flatters me. It is all my duty. The purpose of Shu Mountain is no different from that of the descendants of Nuwa. We are all here to protect this land."
"Besides, Your Majesty devoted yourself to protecting the human race, sacrificing your life for it. Now it is time for your junior to repay you."
After saying this, Chu Yang felt a gentle light fall on him.
"Then I'll have to trouble you with the rest of the work."
Chu Yang nodded in agreement, sat cross-legged inside the Nuwa Temple, and began to deduce the cultivation technique, silently waiting for Li Xiaoyao to return.
A week has passed.
Suddenly, a bright light shone from inside the Nuwa Temple, and Li Xiaoyao's figure appeared from the light. He looked dazed, but gradually came to his senses when Chu Yang called out to him.
"How does it feel?"
"Like a dream, like an illusion—"
"I know you think you're dreaming, but the Water Spirit Orb in your hand is real!"
Li Xiaoyao was immediately startled!
Then, unable to resist, he took out the Water Spirit Orb and examined it closely. "I never imagined that the Water Spirit Orb was actually given to me by myself ten years ago. I even exchanged it for a wooden sword."
"I knew I had no memory of this from my childhood, so how come I suddenly have a wooden sword by my side?"
Chu Yang patted his shoulder and asked, "Goddess Nuwa told you not to try to change the future, but I think given your personality, you would never obediently follow her advice."
Li Xiaoyao scratched his head and said, "I did do something, but Brother Chu is still here, which means it was probably useless."
"At least you have the self-awareness. You think Nuwa doesn't know your thoughts? Everything was already predetermined!"
Li Xiaoyao sighed and said no more. In any case, he hoped that Zhao Ling'er would be happier.
"Let's go, take your Water Spirit Orb, let's go back to Mount Shu. Hopefully, things will go smoothly for Jing Tian and the others as well."
Chu Yang rode his sword straight into the sky, with Li Xiaoyao close behind. The two of them rushed back to Mount Shu at an extremely fast speed.
In this time travel, Li Xiaoyao has clearly become stronger than before, and it's unknown how much difficulty he encountered ten years ago.
Half a day later, the two were able to see the entire city of Yuzhou. Chu Yang didn't want to delay, so he took Li Xiaoyao directly to the location of the Demon Locking Tower.
Xu Changqing and Jing Tian were even faster than them, and were already waiting beside the elders.
The Sword Saint at the top of the tower saw the Water Spirit Orb in Li Xiaoyao's hand and was excited. In addition, Xu Changqing had collected four spirit orbs before, so he now had all five spirit orbs.
Next, all that's needed is to activate the power of the Five Elements to repair the magic array of the Demon-Locking Tower.
As soon as Li Xiaoyao landed, before he could even speak, Xu Changqing took the Water Spirit Orb from his hand and handed it to the Qingwei Sect Leader.
"You are all good children. I have not misplaced my trust in you. Shushan owes its success to you in this crisis. On behalf of Shushan, I thank you."
Chu Yang chuckled, "Sect Leader, why don't we get down to business? Li Xiaoyao and the others have been following us for so long, going to the God Realm and the Ghost Realm."
Qingwei stroked his beard and nodded with a smile, saying, "The reward you're owed won't be less than what's due; I don't need you, you little rascal, to remind me."
Chu Yang silently stepped aside and gave Li Xiaoyao a wink, who returned the look with gratitude.
Soon, the five people, including Qingwei, each stood at a corner of the magic battle formation. The five spirit orbs were activated by spiritual power and slowly rose into the air above the magic array.
The power of the five elements surged forth, transforming into rays of light that flew towards the Demon-Locking Tower.
The Demon-Sealing Tower, which had been teetering on the brink of collapse, immediately became stable, and the broken walls were gradually repaired.
A moment later, the repair suddenly became extremely slow, as if the download progress was stuck at 99%.
Qingwei said with a grim expression, "The magic array inside the Demon Locking Tower is severely damaged. Someone needs to go in and repair it so that the power of the Five Elements can continue to work."
"This journey is fraught with peril; who would be willing to go?"
Without a second thought, Chu Yang shouted righteously.
"Leave it, I'll do it!"
The Demon-Sealing Tower is a great place. It's full of talented people who speak pleasantly, and most importantly, it's a place where the Demon-Eating Gu can feast to its heart's content.
The Demon-Suppressing Sword is also a good thing. Since Jing Tian doesn't want it anyway, rather than leaving it in the Demon-Locking Tower, I might as well take it with me.
Upon hearing Chu Yang volunteer, Qingwei did not immediately agree, revealing a hint of apprehension.
After Xu Changqing returned to Mount Shu, he explained to him that Chu Yang might be the reincarnation of the Emperor of Fengdu.
After learning the whole story, Qingwei was still unsure about Chu Yang's true identity.
This disciple's rapid rise from obscurity to his current meteoric rise is comparable only to that of Jing Tian, who is also the reincarnation of the divine general Fei Peng.
Even the exceptionally talented Li Xiaoyao was a step behind.
Aside from being the reincarnation of the Emperor of Fengdu, there seems to be no other explanation.
and----
That ancient sword has a mysterious origin; few people would believe it wasn't a magical artifact of the Fengdu Emperor.
Chu Yang smiled faintly and said, "Why is the sect leader hesitating? Could it be that I, Chu Yang, am not considered a disciple of Mount Shu and am not qualified to enter the tower?"
Cang Gu said with a worried expression, "A Yang, your identity is special. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid—"
Chu Yang shook his head and said, "Master, my identity is special and I can't afford to get hurt, but what about the lives of ordinary people? What about the descendants of Nuwa? How can their lives be sacrificed?"
Cang Gu trembled with anger, "Nonsense! You know that's not what I meant!"
Chu Yang sighed and said, "Master, please don't be offended. I know your intentions, but among everyone present, who is more suitable than me?"
Upon hearing this, most people fell silent, except for Xu Changqing, who stepped forward and declared decisively, "I am the senior brother; it should be me who goes to the Demon-Sealing Tower!"
Chu Yang asked arrogantly, "How skilled are you in array formations, Senior Brother? Are you sure you can repair the array within the Demon-Locking Tower?"
Xu Changqing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly fell silent. He knew that Chu Yang had spent the previous ten years or so in the Sutra Repository because he was unable to cultivate. In terms of understanding formations, he was far inferior to Chu Yang.
"That's why I said the most suitable person to enter the Demon-Sealing Tower is me, the Sect Leader, Master, and all the Martial Uncles. Now, I hope there are no other objections?"
Chu Yang's gaze swept over Qing Wei and the others, his expression indifferent, as if life and death were nothing more than a trivial matter.
"In that case, go ahead!"
He stroked his beard, his gaze deep and thoughtful.
"With your Sword Saint Uncle guarding the top of the tower, the great demons have already fled down below. It's the safest way to enter."
Cang Gu walked to Chu Yang's side and whispered, "If things don't work out, just go back the way we came. We'll think of another way. We've gathered all five elemental pearls; is there anything more difficult than this?"
"Demon souls and demons are two different things. Your sword can suppress demon souls and evil spirits, but it may not work on demons. There is another demon-suppressing sword in the Demon-Locking Tower. Try to find that sword first, and you will achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Chu Yang felt a warmth in his heart. From beginning to end, only his master Cang Gu's attitude towards him had never changed. In the other's eyes, he seemed to still be that frustrated young man.
Just then, Jing Tian hesitated and stepped forward. Even though Tang Xuejian was dragging him along, he still slowly walked up to Chu Yang and said, "Brother Chu, Long Kui is very familiar with the Demon Locking Tower. Why don't I go in with you?"
Tang Xue stomped her feet in anger and said, "He's a hero, and you're just a servant. In such a dangerous place, you'd be the first one to die."
Jing Tian scratched his head and said, "But if something happens to the Demon Locking Tower, wouldn't that affect the entire world? I didn't understand before, but now I do. I also bear some responsibility for this, even though I'm just an ordinary person."
Seeing that his argument was reasonable and well-founded, Tang Xue suddenly lost her reason for being angry. She gritted her teeth and said, "If you go in, I'll go in too. Am I, the dignified young lady of the Tang family, not inferior to a mere shop assistant at Yong'an Pawnshop!"
Jing Tian chuckled.
As soon as the two of them said they wanted to go in, Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru couldn't sit still anymore and clamored to go in with them.
Xu Changqing became restless again.
Chu Yang felt a splitting headache and quickly interrupted the noisy Li Xiaoyao and the others, "The situation of the Demon Locking Tower is special. It's not something that can be solved by having more people. Don't make things worse."
No matter how much they tried to persuade him, Chu Yang insisted on not bringing anyone with him.
Just kidding, I went in to level up my cultivation. If you guys follow me, how am I supposed to level up?
Amidst the commotion, Chu Yang flew to the top of the tower on his sword.
The Sword Saint didn't give him any instructions like Cang Gu Qingwei did; he simply waved his hand and opened the barrier.
Chu Yang jumped through the gap and arrived at the top of the Demon Locking Tower, where the Jian family sealed the Demon Sword.
Scattered talismans were everywhere, and the barrier on the high platform had mostly collapsed, leaving only ruins.
Chu Yang, having walked through the ruins, did not enter the next level, but instead entered the Soul Palace first.
The demon-eating gu on his body wasn't enough to clean up the entire Demon-Locking Tower.
The Palace of Souls.
The one who greeted the immortal hero Chu Yang was still the magical Chu Yang, but today there was also a pirate Chu Yang.
The two looked excited, as if they had made another major breakthrough.
Pirate Chu Yang took a deep breath and said, "Let me go first. Some time ago, Vegapunk's research on the Infinite Energy Engine stalled, so he turned to researching Bloodline Factor technology again."
"I originally intended to change my mood, but I didn't expect him to actually come up with something new. The latest technology can now perfectly combine the characteristics of living things and inanimate things to create an alternative organic life form."
You know Spandam's sword, Van Cleef & Arpels, the one that ate the Elephant-Elephant Fruit, right? It's an upgraded version of that kind of situation. Now, its scope is no longer limited to Devil Fruits; it can extend to other living creatures.
The immortal swordsman Chu Yang chuckled, "For example, the Demon-Eating Gu?"
Pirate Chu Yang nodded and said, "That's right. If all goes well, we can transfer the characteristics of the Demon-Eating Gu to some object and provide it with enough energy. In this way, we won't need to spend effort constantly replicating the Demon-Eating Gu."
Magic Chu Yang continued, "Since it's some kind of object, then a magical artifact must be included. After thinking it over, the most likely magical artifact that can be combined with the Demon-Eating Gu is—"
The three of them said in unison, "The Demon-Sealing Tower!"
"Sealing demons, refining demons, and converting their cultivation into power—if paired with an almost limitless energy system, it's practically a fully automated demon-refining machine!" Pirate Chu Yang said, his mouth dry, and he subconsciously licked his lips.
"This is true technology and ruthless skill." Immortal Chu Yang exclaimed, "It's true that timing is everything. I'm in the Demon Locking Tower now, preparing to repair the magic array inside."
Magic Chu Yang exclaimed excitedly, "Bring the camera robot in! We must record the magic arrays and structure inside so we can refine them ourselves later!"
Pirate Chu Yang clicked his tongue, "We've really ruined this Demon-Sealing Tower from top to bottom."
