Chapter 421 Inheritance of a Cosmic Powerhouse
"He is also the Azure Dragon Divine Envoy," Zang Yu said with a smile.
For some reason, seeing that smile made Xiao Weiqing feel even colder. When he saw Zang Yu again at Shenxiang Mountain, Zang Yu was like a completely different person. Could it be that time?
Zang Yu was unable to control his overpowered spiritual energy, which is an outward manifestation of a strong soul. Does that mean that the Zang Yu we first met in Kyoto Prefecture was the Azure Dragon Envoy?
Looking at the Azure Dragon Envoy beside him, he was half a body length behind Zang Yu, clearly indicating that Zang Yu was in charge.
What exactly is going on?
Seeing Xiao Weiqing's furrowed brows, Zang Yu smiled slightly.
"not understand?"
Xiao Weiqing did not answer, remaining vigilant.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~~
Xie Zhiyuan, Dongfang Baichen, and Princess Yun Shu took to the air and arrived beside Xiao Weiqing, forming a standoff with Zang Yu and the Azure Dragon Envoy.
Zang Yu ignored him and continued speaking to himself:
"A long time ago."
"A powerful being from the universe was defeated in a battle for a treasure and was seriously injured. He fled with a group of followers. Before his death, he could not bear to see his legacy go to waste, so he sneaked into this place of origin and left behind his legacy."
"And he told his followers to do their best to select a successor and train him diligently, so that they could avenge him one day."
"And then, guess what happened?"
Zang Yu laughed, his eyes seemingly filled with sarcasm.
Xiao Weiqing listened silently without responding.
"That powerful being in the universe died too quickly, leaving him no time to make many preparations, and he also underestimated the greed of human nature."
"His followers are fighting amongst themselves."
"A group of followers insists on the orders of the cosmic powerhouses, preparing to select and cultivate successors for the future. They believe that they should lie low and wait for the emergence of intelligent civilizations to select successors for the cosmic powerhouses. This group of followers belongs to the conservative faction."
"Another group of more radical followers felt that the civilization in this land was developing too slowly. At that time, there was a kind of monster on Earth that seemed powerful but had no brains. Its brains were pitifully small, and it was impossible for it to develop any civilization."
"It would be better to destroy them and then nurture a new civilization according to their desires."
"This idea was strongly rejected, with conservatives arguing that the evolution of life should not be interfered with."
"There is also a group of followers who are neutral."
"Unexpectedly, the radical followers destroyed that creature."
"destroy?"
Xiao Weiqing exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, destruction."
"If I remember correctly, a powerful star lord threw a large rock at Blue Star."
"Then....."
"Bang!"
"Most of the life on Earth has become extinct."
Xiao Weiqing remained expressionless, but his fists clenched slightly as he asked, "And then?"
"Then, the conservatives and radicals started fighting. For some reason, the two sides fought fiercely, and after the battle, there were very few people left."
"And then..."
"The two factions then realized that they had been deceived; the stone had actually been thrown by the neutral faction."
"The purpose is to make them fight each other so that we can wipe them all out."
Why?
Xie Zhiyuan asked, "This doesn't make sense."
Zang Yu chuckled lightly, "I told you, that powerful being from the universe underestimated the greed of human nature."
"Among his followers, some had inappropriate thoughts, feeling that it was very foolish to wait tens or hundreds of millions of years to select a successor like a nanny."
"Can't they accept the legacy themselves?"
Xiao Weiqing frowned. "Did the neutral faction succeed?"
"No."
"They failed."
"The conservatives and radicals fought with all their might and perished together with the neutral star lords."
Xiao Weiqing was startled. "To perish together?"
"That's right, let's perish together."
"The radicals' methods are debatable, but like the conservatives, they are loyal to that powerful being in the universe and have no ulterior motives."
Xiao Weiqing asked, "Are you referring to the Starry Sky?"
Zang Yu nodded in response, "Yes, I suddenly remembered that you've been there before."
"You should have brought back the Primordial Divine Light of the Azure Dragon Star Lord back then; it would have saved me a lot of trouble."
The image of that giant flashed through Xiao Weiqing's mind. "Is that the Azure Dragon Star Lord?"
"Um."
"That's not right," Xiao Weiqing retorted. "Since they are alien star lords, how can they resist the rules of the birthplace?"
"Oh? It seems you know quite a bit," Zang Yu said with a smile. "Indeed, outsider star lords, or rather, star lords who break through outside the rules of the nurturing land, will be rejected by the nurturing land, but it's not like there's no way out."
"What method?"
"Lower your cultivation level!" Zang Yu replied.
"Lowering your level?"
Xiao Weiqing was somewhat confused.
Zang Yu explained, "It is the Primordial Divine Light. Star Lords, due to the nature of their divine souls, are outside the rules of the birthplace, so they must separate their divine souls from their divine bodies. This is the origin of the Primordial Divine Light."
"Once you leave the birthplace, you can refine the Primordial Divine Light again. However, this will damage your soul, and your future achievements will not be very high."
then.
Zang Yu continued, "After that battle, the Star Lords were almost all killed or wounded. The last Star Lord of the Conservative faction, on his deathbed, anchored the Four Great Temples to Blue Star."
"When intelligent civilizations emerge on Earth and the number of intelligent life forms reaches a certain level, temples will be created, ushering Earth into the era of cultivation."
"That is what you call the resurgence of spiritual energy."
"If that's the case, why are you restricting our cultivation?" Xiao Weiqing asked.
Zang Yu laughed, seemingly mockingly, "Do you think you're the chosen civilization, entitled to receive the legacy of a great cosmic powerhouse for nothing?"
"What do you mean?" Xiao Weiqing pressed.
Zang Yu smiled but did not answer.
"I'm afraid this Azure Dragon Envoy belongs to the neutral faction," Xie Zhiyuan said coldly.
Zang Yu glanced at Xie Zhiyuan but did not deny it.
"I see."
Xiao Weiqing understood Xie Zhiyuan's meaning; the Azure Dragon Envoy had harbored thoughts he shouldn't have.
"And what about the demon race? Did you create that too?"
The speaker was Dongfang Baichen.
"No, the demon race and the human race have been enemies since ancient times, and they also have a place of gestation. It is perfectly normal for the human race to hunt and invade the demon race in the vast universe," Zang Yu said, shaking his head.
"Go on," Xiao Weiqing gestured.
Zang Yu did not refuse. "Everything was going very smoothly. We guided the cultivation of the Blue Star civilization and were regarded as gods by the Blue Star people. In the future, I will send Blue Star geniuses to open the Star Dome and obtain the long-awaited inheritance."
"But unexpectedly..."
Speaking of which...
Zang Yu's face turned cold for the first time before he said, "Eighty years ago, a man named Dongfang Hao appeared. After entering the Starry Sky, he seemed to have discovered something unusual."
"After that, just a few years later, he broke through to the ninth realm, attacked Azure Dragon Island, and asked me to reopen Spirit Mirage Peak."
"You refused?"
Dongfang Baichen asked.
"Don't you think I should refuse?"
The group fell silent; from Zang Yu's perspective, refusal was the only normal course of action.
"After that, he fought with us."
"you?"
Xiao Weiqing grasped the key points in Zang Yu's words.
