Chapter 679: Chapter 678: System Lottery Draw
Tang Yaoyao bit her teeth and said, "Yaoyao is from the Tang Family of the central region. Our family once had an emperor, so we were a top force. But as time passed, Yaoyao’s family gradually declined."
"Over ten years ago, our entire family had only one individual at the middle stage of the Saint Realm, but because we had an Emperor Level Divine Weapon in the family, many people didn’t dare to make a move against us."
"However, about ten years ago, the Zhang Family managed to render our Emperor Level Divine Weapon unusable by some unknown means. The Tang Family, without the protection of the Emperor Level Divine Weapon, was no match for the Zhang Family. Everyone except Yaoyao was slaughtered by the Zhang Family."
"Whether they were old or young, without exception, all were mercilessly slain."
"At that time, in order to protect me and to prevent the Emperor Level Divine Weapon from falling into the Zhang Family’s hands, my father used a secret technique to send me to the western region where, by a stroke of luck, I managed to join the Dark Palace and had the honor of meeting the Hall Master."
"For such a long time, Yaoyao has remained undetected thanks to that secret technique, but for some reason, this time Zhang Tingyu saw through me at a glance."
Tang Yaoyao spoke candidly.
She had nearly told Liu Zheng everything. Initially, she hadn’t planned to say anything for fear of implicating him.
Yet now, because of her, Liu Zheng had already confronted the Zhang Family.
She felt it was necessary to let Liu Zheng know about these things.
"So this is why you approached the Demon God Temple? You wanted to use the Emperor Level Divine Weapon to get the Demon God Temple to take action, right?"
"Yes, Yaoyao thought there was no hope left in this life, as I know I can’t advance to Quasi-Emperor. It was the emergence of the Demon God Temple that gave Yaoyao hope."
That’s why Tang Yaoyao did not hesitate to offer up the Emperor Level Divine Weapon, because without it, even that hope would be lost.
Quasi-Emperor?
How many geniuses in this world have found their progress halted here.
She wasn’t an unrivaled genius like Liu Zheng, so she could only hope for the Demon God Temple to take action.
"What you’re doing is not wrong. Don’t worry, the Demon God Temple will avenge you."
Liu Zheng actually knew about this already, just not in such detail.
But now Tang Yaoyao was the biggest client of the Demon God Temple, having brought out an Emperor Level Divine Weapon, and Liu Zheng needed to reassure her.
After their conversation, Tang Yaoyao left.
...
"Ever since summoning the Demon God Army, I haven’t used the system. Now that I’ve accumulated quite a bit of destiny, I might as well try it out."
This time, by killing Zhang Tingyu and Mo Ao, Liu Zheng had obtained seventy destiny points, and together with the previous thirty, he now had a hundred in total.
"Fifty destiny points for one lottery draw, this is really expensive."
The system had introduced two types of lottery draws: one for items and one for powerful beings.
The quality of the lottery draws was not guaranteed, and what one could draw depended entirely on luck, requiring fifty destiny points for a single attempt.
It must be said, it was quite expensive.
Sometimes, even slaying a person of destiny might not yield enough for a single lottery draw.
Perhaps only the Sons of Destiny could offer a bit more, but how much more, Liu Zheng wasn’t sure, as he had never slain one before.
But now that Wang Zun had appeared, there was no need to hurry.
"What should I draw this time? For the first time, let’s draw a powerful being. I can consider other things the second time around."
"If I’m lucky, I might even draw the Sutra of the Time Dao, and that would be a huge profit."
Liu Zheng couldn’t help feeling joyful at the thought. If he really could draw it, he would be the luckiest person alive.
"Let’s start!"
Without further ado, Liu Zheng initiated the lottery draw.
"I hope for a strong battle power."
Liu Zheng thought to himself, as his most pressing need now was top-notch battle power – a Quasi-Emperor or an Emperor would be ideal.
If he really could draw an Emperor, then sweeping through the entire Dao Realm wouldn’t be a problem.
At the very least, drawing a Quasi-Emperor would also be good, as having the power of a Quasi-Emperor was quite strong.
"System, grant me a strong being!"
Liu Zheng silently wished, and then a vortex suddenly appeared before him, sending forth a vast and ancient aura.
Powerful and immortal auras enveloped the surroundings, as if the world had just begun and everything was being born.
Slowly, a figure emerged from the void. Although his features were not yet clear, the aura emanating from him shocked Liu Zheng.
This aura was incredibly strong, though perhaps not as strong as the Immortals of the Celestial Realm.
But in the Dao Realm, even Chen Jin would be far inferior to this person.
The aura was exceedingly domineering and tyrannical.
Standing tall with the heavens and earth underfoot, his mere silhouette was as imposing and substantial as a mountain range.
"Emperor Level?"
Liu Zheng was not entirely sure. The aura felt like it could be at Emperor Level, but it was somehow different.
In any case, it was very strange, resembling both Quasi-Emperor and Emperor Level.
Moments later, a man in black armor with a broad back and robust stature appeared before Liu Zheng, his eyes filled with an unstoppable tyrannical might.
He was like a sovereign who had long held a supreme position, looking down upon the world.
Under the influence of this aura, those not strong enough would kneel instantly.
"Ding-dong, congratulations to the host for summoning the Body of a Tyrant, Xiang Batian!"
Hearing the system’s message, Liu Zheng was somewhat surprised.
Although not an emperor, he had actually summoned an owner of the Body of a Tyrant.
The Body of a Tyrant was one of the top physiques, and legend had it that a fully realized Body of a Tyrant could contend with emperors.
Of course, if it really came to a fight, the Body of a Tyrant would still not be a match for an emperor.
Because reaching the emperor level, the very tier of life changes, and even the ninth level of the Saint Realm would be mere ants before an emperor.
Only true freaks of nature could stand against an emperor.
And this Body of a Tyrant was one of them.
"It doesn’t matter if it’s not an emperor. Having this Body of a Tyrant is enough to let me stride unhindered through the Dao Realm."
Even though it wasn’t emperor level, Liu Zheng felt a little regretful.
But the strength of the Body of a Tyrant was undeniable, and there weren’t many who would dare to act arrogantly in its presence.
At most, only those wielding Divine Weapons of emperors or the virtual emperors from forbidden lands would be able to contend against it.
Now possessing the Body of a Tyrant, Liu Zheng was capable of doing many more things.
Ancient races?
Holy lands of the human race?
Anything that displeased Liu Zheng could be annihilated with a wave of his hand.
With the appearance of two thousand beings from the Saint Realm and the Body of a Tyrant, even those who were dissatisfied had no choice but to swallow their grievances.
After all, this combat strength was simply too overwhelming.
"The Body of a Tyrant, Xiang Batian, pays his respects to the Hall Master!"
The moment Xiang Batian appeared, he knelt on one knee before Liu Zheng.
Seeing this scene again, Liu Zheng felt a hint of astonishment.
The system was truly powerful; even the Body of a Tyrant had to obediently comply.
"Rise."
"Yes!"
Xiang Batian was not one for many words. He stood up and took his place as a guardian by Liu Zheng’s side.
"Hall Master!"
Luo Ni, too, sensed Xiang Batian’s aura and hurried in, her expression fraught with tension.
Upon seeing Xiang Batian, her face changed completely.
