Chapter 692: Chapter 691: Awakening of the Divine Weapon
The royal dynasty of Qiankun, within the sacred ground behind the imperial palace, an elder suddenly opened his eyes and muttered to himself, staring ahead.
"It seems that the Zhang Family is no more."
He then continued to converge his breath and fell into slumber.
Although the battle was fierce, it had nothing to do with him, nor did he wish to go.
Even if he did go, he could not change anything; it would be better to continue sleeping and wait for the right moment to come.
...
"Trouble has befallen the Zhang Family; the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body has sought them out."
Within an ancient city, another elder muttered to himself.
He wore a blue robe and carried a long sword on his back, looking like an ordinary martial artist.
Upon hearing the elder’s words, a young person by his side’s face changed dramatically, and he hurriedly pleaded, "Master, can you help the Zhang Family? They have shown me great kindness."
"If Master does not take action, they will be doomed."
Hearing his disciple’s words, the elder helplessly shook his head: "The strength of the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body is beyond your imagination, even if Master intervenes, it will be futile."
Unconvinced, the young person felt that the master was making excuses: "Master, you are a Quasi-Emperor of the seventh level, already standing at the pinnacle of this world; there are few people stronger than you. And the Zhang Family has Zhang Yuxing; together you must be able to defeat the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body."
"If Master could slay the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body, it would be a shocking event that would reverberate throughout the ages."
The elder’s mouth twitched in frustration, saying helplessly, "You make it sound easy. The Tyrant Body is not as simple as you think. If it could be killed by two late-stage Quasi-Emperors, then it wouldn’t be known as the strongest beneath the emperor."
"Tyrant Body, Holy Body, Divine Body—once such constitutions reach their full potential, it means they have achieved sanctity through their physical form, and normally, Quasi-Emperors cannot contend with them."
"Even if Master takes action, are you implying he has no means to counter it?"
To kill the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body? As if his brain had gone wonky.
Although a Quasi-Emperor of the seventh level is powerful, within the Dao Realm, it is not considered invincible; there are many who are stronger than them.
"If Master is unwilling, then I must go alone. The Zhang Family are my benefactors; I cannot merely watch this unfold."
The young person was clearly resolute.
He then said, "Master, could you please try? If it truly is beyond us, then we’ll simply leave at that time."
"Foolish child, I shall accompany you in this endeavor," the elder replied with great reluctance, having no choice but to accompany his disciple.
Grabbing the young person, the elder vanished from the spot with a flash.
...
"Zhang Yuxing’s battle with the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body will certainly be a combat that shocks the world; perhaps I can learn something from it."
"A battle between Quasi-Emperors, something I haven’t seen in many years, is a rare opportunity."
"I wonder if the fully-realized Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body is as formidable as the legends say."
The battle between Zhang Yuxing and the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body quickly sent shockwaves throughout the Central Region, drawing many powerful figures to witness the fight.
A battle of this level is a rare sight; now presented with an opportunity, they hoped to glean much from it.
...
"It turns out Zhang Yuxing was right to anticipate; the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body has indeed made a move," said two powerfully presenced figures from the Qiankun royal dynasty, conversing slowly.
Both were esteemed ancestors of the Qiankun royal dynasty, roused from their slumber by Zhang Yuxing not long ago.
They had a good relationship with the Zhang Family; Zhang Yuxing had requested that they assist in dealing with the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body should it come.
They intended to keep the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body within the Central Region.
Initially, the two ancestors disagreed; although they were on good terms, this undertaking would involve deploying Divine Weapons of an emperor.
To kill the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body even with emperor Divine Weapons was uncertain.
Ultimately, it was only after Zhang Yuxing offered a colossal price that they agreed.
Simply put, Zhang Yuxing offered them too much, and they found the deal irresistible.
And Zhang Yuxing was also very smart. When another Quasi-Emperor from the Zhang Family was slain, he had already begun his preparations.
He had been waiting for the arrival of Xiang Batian.
At this moment, with Xiang Batian’s arrival, Zhang Yuxing was also ready to reveal his trump card.
"Awaken the Emperor’s Divine Weapon,"
one of the two old ancestors from the Qiankun Dynasty said.
With the Greatly Accomplished Tyrant Body present, they had to act as well.
"Alright."
Following that, the two vanished into the void.
In the depths of the Qiankun Dynasty, a colossal Jade Seal radiated dazzling light, exerting an astonishing pressure.
It was as if an emperor had awakened, shocking the entire Central Region.
Many powerful beings turned their attention towards the direction of the Qiankun Dynasty.
"The Emperor’s Divine Weapon has been resurrected," they said.
Subsequently, the two Quasi-Emperors from the Qiankun Dynasty emerged with the Jade Seal, the aura on it growing ever more powerful and remarkable.
...
At the same time, the Dark Palace was informed of the resurrection of the Emperor’s Divine Weapon the moment it happened.
Liu Zheng thought for a moment and then said to Luo Ni beside him, "Sister Luo Ni, go call Tang Yaoyao over."
"Okay!"
Without any hesitation, Luo Ni turned around and left.
Soon, Tang Yaoyao was called over.
"Yaoyao, lend me your Emperor’s Divine Weapon for a moment."
Liu Zheng said directly to Tang Yaoyao.
The participation of an Emperor’s Divine Weapon was something Liu Zheng had not anticipated.
Although he was aware of Xiang Batian’s strength,
the opponent’s preparations were not few; there might be more than one Emperor’s Divine Weapon, so Liu Zheng planned to deploy the Emperor’s Divine Weapon in Tang Yaoyao’s hands.
With an Emperor’s Divine Weapon, Xiang Batian’s odds of winning would be higher.
It was clear that this time, Zhang Yuxing had made extensive preparations, and an Emperor’s Divine Weapon might not be all of it.
If a second Emperor’s Divine Weapon were to be deployed later, it would be troublesome.
Thus, Liu Zheng thought it best to make plans early, with Tang Yaoyao’s Emperor’s Divine Weapon being the optimal choice.
As long as he had one Emperor’s Divine Weapon, even if he were to face two, Xiang Batian would still be confident.
Tang Yaoyao did not hesitate at all, immediately producing a long sword that lacked any luster, clearly in a sealed state.
"Hall Master, this is our Emperor’s Divine Weapon," she said.
Liu Zheng took the Divine Weapon, and with his Eyes of Void, the seal on the divine sword was clear as day.
The Eyes of Void themselves could see through anything, so such a seal could not stop Liu Zheng.
Crack!
A cracking sound was heard as Liu Zheng tapped on the divine sword a few times.
The whole divine sword instantly burst forth with dazzling light, and at the same time, a fearsome aura was released.
"Tell it that I will borrow its power later," he said.
"Okay!"
Tang Yaoyao quickly nodded, then communicated with the sword spirit using a secret technique. Before too long, the long sword gave a slight nod, apparently in agreement.
"Hall Master, it has agreed and will awaken shortly," she said.
Liu Zheng nodded slightly, then instructed Chen Tu to deliver the divine sword.
