Chapter 543: Killing the Heavenly Mandate Holder, Chen Changsheng is Captured
“Deadly Valley?”
Hearing this name, the Old Celestial Master looked somewhat puzzled.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng spoke up: “A powerful forbidden ground, they appeared during the Reincarnation War.”
“The Eternal Immortal and Wang Hao plotted to k*ll the people of Deadly Valley, so Deadly Valley put this account on my head.”
Upon receiving this answer, the Old Celestial Master’s eyelids began to twitch wildly.
“Even though forbidden grounds do things brutally, they wouldn’t go so far as to eradicate completely. They should have negotiated terms with you first.”
“This is indeed the case; they offered two conditions.”
“First, hand over Ye Yongxian and Wang Hao.”
“Second, surrender half of Zhu Long’s corpse.”
“How did you respond?”
“I told them to roll as far away as they could. Let me personally k*ll the people; that is absolutely impossible. At most, I would provide information about the two.”
“As for Zhu Long’s corpse, that is an even more ludicrous dream.”
“When attacking the realm of reincarnation, they didn’t come to help. Now they casually want to find a reason to divide the spoils; don’t you think that’s a huge joke?”
“Gulp!”
The Old Celestial Master forced down a mouthful of saliva and said, “So you fought against the forbidden ground alone?”
“Who said I was alone? I still had Zhi Ze with me.”
“Initially, with eight hundred people, I was chased by them all over the Crimson Realm, but they couldn’t do anything to me.”
“During that time, I also killed a few Fifth-Grade Immortal Kings.”
“However, later things got serious; Deadly Valley was really going all out, so I asked Zhi Ze to move for help.”
“This matter was instigated by Wang Hao and Ye Yongxian; they obviously couldn’t stand by.”
“What happened next?”
“Why did Zhi Ze keep asking for help and even came to the Land of Reincarnation?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng’s face turned cold.
“Because after fighting Deadly Valley for two thousand rounds, I was captured.”
“What!”
Receiving this news, the Old Celestial Master stood up excitedly.
“How did Deadly Valley capture you?”
“It wasn’t just the power of Deadly Valley; several factions joined forces.”
“At first, they remained hidden and dormant, but at the critical moment, they dealt me a lethal blow.”
“Those factions were so powerful that even an emperor would have to give way. With so many of them joining forces, I naturally got caught.”
“Later I found out they weren’t targeting me just because of Deadly Valley, but because of some old grievances.”
“What old grievances?”
“When the forces of Emperor Huangtian were waging war, I had fought against them.”
“At that time, the Sword God was still with Emperor Huangtian’s team; you know what kind of temperament the Sword God and Emperor Huangtian had.”
“It was completely normal to make enemies with those factions.”
“Earlier, I was hiding in this side of the Crimson Realm, so they couldn’t do anything to me. Now that I revealed myself, they obviously sought revenge.”
“Then how did you escape?”
“Zhi Hu and the others desperately rescued me; I owe it to Fu Yao as well; otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have succeeded.”
After hearing this, the Old Celestial Master felt his head spinning.
“I roughly understand the situation, but I think you haven’t mentioned some things. If it were just like this, it wouldn’t have escalated to the level of a Crimson Realm war.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, “I forgot to mention some small details.”
“What small details?”
“They captured my main body, but didn’t capture my avatar.”
“To make me submit, they obviously resorted to torture, so my avatar, together with Zhi Ze, desecrated their ancestral graves.”
“And buried all their ancestors’ bones in the Five Grains Land of Reincarnation.”
A gentle reminder: If you can’t find the book title, try searching for the author; perhaps it has just been renamed!
Facing Chen Changsheng’s actions, the Old Celestial Master was speechless.
“Doing this, they shouldn’t let you off the hook.”
“Of course not; over thirty of my bones have been taken apart by them.”
“My ribs became chopsticks, my skull was made into a bowl, and my leg bones were turned into drumsticks.”
“Then how did you retaliate against them?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng paused for a moment, then smiled mysteriously and said, “About a thousand years ago, my avatar laid a stunning trap.”
“At last, I assassinated a complete and peak Heavenly Mandate Holder.”
“I nailed him to the top of a mountain, and his wails resonated for seven days and nights.”
“In the end, I flayed his skin and pulled out his bones one by one.”
“Heavenly Mandate Holder?”
“A world can’t have more than one Heavenly Mandate Holder, right?”
“A world can indeed only have one Heavenly Mandate Holder, but no one said that our world is the only one.”
Faced with such shocking news, the Old Celestial Master was also a bit dazed.
“Let’s set this question aside for now; my mind is a bit cluttered.”
“Leaving aside the limit on the number of Heavenly Mandate Holders, those who can reach the level of Heavenly Mandate Holders must be the pillars of various factions, right?”
“Indeed.”
“The person I killed was touted as the most outstanding prodigy in hundreds of thousands of years; the faction he led has developed remarkably in recent thousands of years.”
“But he is also one of my top enemies, as he considers Emperor Huangtian and the Sword God nothing much.”
“Before he beheaded Emperor Huangtian, he obviously wanted to use me, the Teacher of Emperor Huangtian, to hone his skills.”
After hearing this, the Old Celestial Master pondered for a moment and said, “Wasn’t his strength truly that strong?”
“Extremely strong; even when Emperor Huangtian arrived in person, it wouldn’t be easy to deal with him.”
“But you still killed him.”
“Correct.”
Upon receiving Chen Changsheng’s affirmative reply, the Old Celestial Master sighed softly.
“Who did they provoke? Why did they have to bother you?”
“I think their biggest mistake was not killing you the moment they caught you.”
“Now that they’ve let the tiger return to the mountain, their days are about to become difficult.”
As he spoke, the Old Celestial Master glanced at Chen Changsheng and said calmly, “How many people do you need, and when do you want to set out?”
“Bring everyone above the Immortal Sovereign Realm, just leave some sparks behind.”
“The quicker we set off, the better; two or three thousand years later, I will come find you to regroup.”
Hearing this, the Old Celestial Master asked in surprise, “What do you plan to do during this time?”
“Find a few usable little fellows to spice things up.”
“Troops against troops, generals against generals, strongmen against strongmen, heroes against heroes.”
“When fighting against those guys, some little brats said some quite unpleasant things, implying that we only have an age advantage.”
“If it were of the same age and the same realm, killing us would be like killing dogs?”
Upon hearing this, the Old Celestial Master’s eyes squinted.
“So arrogant?”
“Indeed.”
“Bai Ze captured one of them and knocked out all his teeth, but the rest are still quite arrogant.”
“So I plan to find them some suitable opponents. Don’t tell me the Eight Desolates Nine Domains doesn’t have such seedlings.”
Hearing this, the Old Celestial Master stroked his beard and said, “In the two thousand years you’ve disappeared, the Eight Desolates Nine Domains has developed quite well.”
“There aren’t too many top-tier experts, but there are still a few talented youngsters.”
“Are they powerful?”
“I don’t know if they are powerful, but they also think we have an age advantage.”
“Ha, this is interesting!”
