The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor Chapter 2296 - 2293: Underlying Currents Surge
Previously on The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor...
A skeletal hand wrapped in flames exerted a slight force, and a figure sat up from within the coffin.
What kind of person was that?
Magma ran through his entire body, and tiny fire dragons roamed about his ears and nose. In his scarlet eyes, flames seemed to burn.
His long hair surged with fiery flames!
As this person sat up from the coffin, a terrifying heat surged outward.
After sitting up, he did not move, a look of confusion on his face.
A good while passed.
He lowered his head to look at himself, then raised his head to see the oppressive black fog filling the air, his gaze gradually sharpening: "It seems the time has come..."
"Emperor Ye, the day we meet again, has finally arrived!"
When he said this, the man’s face showed a fierce smile, his eyes crazed.
Who was he?
No one knew.
In any case, he was not from this era.
......
The Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth rapidly enveloped All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.
Just as the longest-lived white-haired woman of the Daoist sect had said.
The greatest obstacle of Luotian Grand Jiao—the Heavenly God Temple—had already been swept aside by Ye Xuan.
Tian Wu, who possessed Space-time Eyes, had also been beaten into a wretched escape by Ye Xuan.
Under such circumstances, it seemed that fewer people were coming to block the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth.
Hmm...
That’s not entirely true.
In All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, there were still numerous reckless evil spirits taking action.
But equally, within All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, there were Daoist disciples protecting the advance of the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth.
The patriarchs of various Daoist inheritances opened their eyes, awaiting the moment Luotian Grand Jiao would fully commence.
They were unaware of the upheavals at the Heavenly God Temple.
But in their view, the greatest obstacles often appear at the end.
For instance, the Black Sky Ancient Netherworld, which from its emergence made the Daoist sect uncomfortable.
They always felt that this Black Sky Ancient Netherworld was plotting something.
No matter what, the appearance of Luotian Grand Jiao would certainly touch on the other’s interests.
Whether the other party would take action remained uncertain.
They must stay vigilant, just in case.
Time slowly passed.
The initiation time for Luotian Grand Jiao was forty-nine days.
This ritual must be completed within this timeframe, or it would fail.
After many initially emerged to hinder the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth, no unexpected incidents occurred thereafter.
Some minor demons weren’t worth mentioning.
Gradually.
Ninety percent of the Great Worlds within All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds were covered by the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth.
None could stop it.
Even the Thirty-Three Heavens of the Heavenly Domain were no exception.
As time reached the forty-eighth day.
When the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth enveloped the last little world.
Boom boom boom————
Within All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, terrifying auras soared into the sky, colliding with the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth, seemingly attempting to tear it apart.
But over these forty-eight days, the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth had evolved to an unbeatable state.
Unless a Quasi-Emperor level being intervened, no one could halt it.
Buzz————
Those terrifying auras transformed into beams of visible light, crashing into the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth, then turning into pure power, accelerating its coverage.
This time.
It moved toward the Black Sky Ancient Netherworld!
Those resistances directly became nourishment for the Five-Colored Sky Covering Cloth.
"Is it finally done?"
All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.
Countless Daoist disciples looked up, their faces showing excitement.
Xuanhuang Great World.
Daozhou.
Central Earth.
Located at the southern end of Central Earth, revered as the foremost Array sect of the Xuanhuang Great World—Zongheng Sect.
The true location of Zongheng Sect, no one knew.
It was covered by too many arrays.
Many who arrived here would inexplicably end up in another part of the Xuanhuang Great World.
Only those within Zongheng Sect knew how to enter.
In the Ancestral Land of Zongheng Sect, there were numerous ancient ferocious array diagrams.
These diagrams were left by the sect’s founding patriarch.
That person was Gui Guzi.
Alongside Huang Shigong, they were famed as the Daoist Dual Saints.
After Gui Guzi left the Daoist sect, he established the renowned Zongheng Sect here.
Currently.
In the Ancestral Land, a youth was carefully studying the various array diagrams.
For the world-attention Luotian Grand Jiao, he seemed entirely uninterested, focused within his own world.
Because he knew, a glorious era was approaching.
What he needed to do was make his power strong enough.
Strong enough to stand beside Brother Xuan once more.
He remembered the words Brother Xuan once spoke to him in Dao Chu Ancient Land.
He was meant to become an Array Emperor in the future.
This youth was none other than Young Array Emperor.
Young Array Emperor meticulously pondered the array diagrams left by the patriarch, feeling a sense of peculiarity.
Because those diagrams were very similar to the Zongheng Tactics Crow’s Grave inheritance he obtained years ago in Dao Chu Ancient Land.
"Could it be that the patriarch also acquired the Zongheng Tactics Crow’s Grave inheritance?"
In Young Array Emperor’s mind floated such a thought.
Unaware, at this moment behind him stood a black-robed, unsmiling old man with black hair.
The old man watched Young Array Emperor with a calm expression.
After a moment, he softly spoke: "Taught to you by Emperor Ye?"
"Hmm?!"
Young Array Emperor’s scalp tingled, he quickly jumped back, creating distance, cautiously watching the old man.
But seeing the old man’s face, Young Array Emperor exclaimed in joy: "Grand Patriarch!?"
Because the black-haired old man was none other than the grand patriarch of Zongheng Sect — Gui Guzi!
Gui Guzi calmly watched Young Array Emperor.
Seeing this, Young Array Emperor recalled the question the grand patriarch just asked, he thought for a while, unsure, and said: "It was a gentleman named Ye Xuan who passed it to me, not sure if he’s the Emperor Ye you mentioned."
Gui Guzi did not reply but scrutinized Young Array Emperor, slightly nodding: "You’re good, in the coming war, you will represent Zongheng Sect."
Young Array Emperor was puzzled: "What war?"
Gui Guzi did not answer Young Array Emperor but rather vanished from sight.
Destination — Black Sky Ancient Netherworld.
Flying in the vast starry sky of the Xuanhuang Great World, Gui Guzi appeared calm but somewhat thoughtful.
He had hidden for too long.
But at such times, he felt compelled to emerge.
After all, he knew Emperor Ye’s intention was for him to return to the Daoist sect.
But he did not wish to return.
Yet he felt, the Daoist sect was omnipresent.
What he pursued was also for the Daoist sect.
That was enough.
"Hmm?"
Just then, Gui Guzi paused, looking back in a certain direction.
There.
A white-feather-robed, white-haired old man rapidly approached.
Immortal King Hall, Huang Shigong!
Arriving by Gui Guzi’s side, Huang Shigong jokingly scolded: "You rascal, set off without saying anything?"
In this location, the famed Daoist Dual Saints of old reunited!
Gui Guzi saw Huang Shigong and remained calm, speaking softly: "Shall we first pay respects to Emperor Ye?"
