Chapter 724: The Prisoner
Chapter 724: The Prisoner
"So our ancestor hasn't forgotten us descendants." Bai Zhi silently accepted the ring that Liu Longyue handed her.
"Go back and inform the Moon Goddess Pavilion that they can come to Lizhou, or they can make preparations on their own."
Liu Longyue comforted her, and Bai Zhi nodded, her expression still forlorn.
Just as the three of them stepped out of the Moon Goddess Palace and Liu Longyue retrieved her divine weapon, a huge change suddenly occurred in the outside world.
The seal on the small world suppressed by the Ice Clan suddenly disappeared. All the strange beings, including Zhang Shouren, rushed out of the Boundless Sea, soaring into the sky with a sky full of black winds. Their terrifying laughter covered the sky, and the entire Li Continent trembled.
Fortunately, Chen Futu had set up a protective formation for Lizhou in advance, so the black winds that attempted to enter Lizhou were kept out.
The powerful figures of Huazhou gazed at the dark, oppressive sky, their faces turning extremely grim. "What a bizarre thing!"
These beings are peculiar; like Zhang Shouren, they seem unkillable, possessing seemingly immortal bodies, with thick black fluid flowing from their faces, resembling mud monsters.
"Hehehe! We're finally out!"
"This is what it feels like to see the light of day again, sob sob sob—"
Dark clouds obscured the sun above Lizhou, and ghosts howled and gods wailed.
Chen Futu and the other two rushed out of the Onon Sea and witnessed this apocalyptic scene.
Liu Longyue exclaimed in astonishment, "Oh no, it was my oversight. The Moon Goddess Palace has been suppressing these karmic obstacles. According to the Moon Goddess's inherited memories, these are all traitors who betrayed the continent and joined that mysterious clan, which is why they were suppressed and supervised by the Ice Clan. Now that I have taken over the Moon Goddess Pavilion, they have escaped."
How do I kill them?
Chen Futu still remembers the scene of Zhang Shouren wreaking havoc on the Ice Tribe and Yaoyue's great battle with Zhang Shouren.
Liu Longyue shook her head and said, "According to the Moon Goddess's memories, her divine body was on the verge of destruction and her power was insufficient to kill these guys, so she could only seal them away, but she didn't say how to kill them."
"Let's go back first."
Chen Futu and his two companions tore through space and descended, arriving in Huazhou in no time.
Above Huazhou, outside the Great Protectorate Formation, Zhang Sanfeng, the Peach Blossom Goddess, and Haotian engaged in a fierce battle.
Chen Futu did not involve Liu Longyue and Bai Zhi, because, as expected, these guys were unkillable.
Even though Zhang Sanfeng hasn't perfected the Yin and Yang energies yet, he can only damage their bodies, but they can quickly recover, much like the mud monsters, even more evil and insane than that pink fat guy from the Jia clan.
"Hehehe, Chen Futu, my good little brother, you've already forgotten your older brother?"
Zhang Shouren mingled in the crowd, laughing heartily at Chen Futu.
Chen Futu shouted, "Zhang Shouren, look at the state you've become!"
"The victor is king, the loser is villain. I lost the battle back then, but this time, I will take back everything I lost!"
Zhang Shouren was covered in a slimy, mud-like substance. He opened his mouth wide and roared, his voice sweeping across the continent.
In the capital city, a woman with a child stared blankly at the ghostly figure, tears welling up in her eyes, "Shouren..."
She was none other than Zhang Shouren's wife.
When Zhang Shouren was forced to leave for the border region, it was a scheme by Chen Futu and others who hoped he would wreak havoc on the grasslands. Later, he did indeed sow discord among the various tribes on the grasslands.
Chen Futu initially kept his sister-in-law and several children as leverage, but as his power gradually increased, he gradually relaxed his control over this widow and her children, until he eventually released them completely.
For Chen Futu, whose foundation was becoming increasingly solid and whose cultivation was becoming increasingly profound, a mere grassland was no longer a threat. Therefore, keeping these orphans and widows around would not cause any trouble.
Zhang Shouren, whose eyesight was excellent, saw his wife and children weeping in the capital. He was stunned for a moment, and then, as if he had been shocked, he covered his face and shouted, "It's not me! I'm not Zhang Shouren!"
After saying this, he wailed and, accompanied by a sky full of black winds, crossed the Boundless Sea.
As Zhang Shouren fled, the others who intended to entangle Lizhou scattered like birds and beasts, as if countless black winds were spreading from Lizhou to various realms.
Chen Futu sighed inwardly, "This world is about to descend into chaos."
Zhang Shouren and the others are not very strong in cultivation, with the strongest only at the Quasi-Emperor Realm. However, they cannot be easily killed. The Great Emperors outside can only suppress them, but without Martial God Weapons, can they suppress them?
Chen Futu stopped Zhang Sanfeng and the others from pursuing them, and solemnly warned them that chaos had already appeared. In the years to come, they should concentrate on their cultivation, try their best to improve their realm, and avoid going out unless necessary.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and returned to the vicinity of the abyss to continue comprehending the Dao patterns.
Chen Futu then sent a telepathic message to his two disciples who were away, telling them to be careful and, if things became unbearable, to return to Lizhou.
Next, Xuanyuan Rong and Zuji received the Moon Goddess's gift. Chen Futu did not ask what it was, but based on the few words Liu Longyue revealed, the answer could be inferred: at least one supreme imperial weapon, or even a quasi-divine weapon, was given to each family.
Bai Zhi also returned to the Moon Goddess Pavilion, but Liu Longyue did not go back; her home was in Lizhou, not in the outer realms.
Chen Futu wasn't sure if the second half of Summer Snowfall could still be triggered. If it was, would he have to fight the God of War?
Just thinking about it is terrifying.
Ding!
[Since Zhang Shouren and others escaped the danger zone, the second half of the Requiem of Sin and Punishment has been triggered.]
The host can choose to accept or reject.
[If the task is completed, the reward will be issued together with the system upgrade.]
The system's shutdown notification sounded again.
Chen Futu did not immediately choose to accept or give up. He wanted to wait and see. After all, those things were indestructible. Before finding a targeted solution, he should not cause trouble for himself.
In the days that followed, Chen Futu notified the Sun Moon Cult to prepare for defense, and sure enough, news came back.
Zhang Shouren and his gang attacked various regions. Many of them were quasi-emperors, and the damage they caused was considerable. Some dynasties were shattered, and some villages and towns were slaughtered. In the end, they did indeed attract the attention of the Great Emperor. The Jia Clan was the first to attack. The Jia Clan produced two Heavenly Demon Generals, who killed a group of people who fled in panic. Even the chubby pink guy swallowed several quasi-emperors.
The fighting was fiercest in the Central Region. Several Great Emperors pursued and suppressed some of them, while the rest fled to other realms to lie low.
The chaos came to an end, but Chen Futu understood that this was just a storm in the midst of a catastrophe. Those guys with unclear backgrounds and hidden in the shadows might not be less destructive than the damage they caused to the mainland in the open.
Therefore, Chen Futu urgently hoped to take his swordsmanship to the next level, so that he might have the opportunity to directly demonstrate his skills and destroy them.
As for letting Liu Longyue lead the divine weapons out to suppress the rebellion, Chen Futu considered it for a long time but did not agree.
The situation on the mainland is gradually becoming turbulent. If Liu Longyue were to reveal her divine weapon, it would inevitably attract the frantic pursuit and interception of the Supreme Emperors. No matter how powerful the divine weapon is, how long can she control it with her cultivation level of entering the Emperor realm?
