This god is really evil

Chapter 318: Solidify the Great Qi for Eternity

Blood gushed out, splashing the hall red.

The spirit tongue did not die yet, and half of its body was still twisting and struggling, but it was soon completely swallowed by the emperor's huge mouth.

Only then did the singers and dancers under the throne react and let out shrill screams, unable to believe what they were seeing.

When they came to the palace, they were told that the current emperor wanted to select some people for his enjoyment. They originally thought that they would be able to rise to the top overnight and become the mistress of the palace. At the very least, they could become a noble lady. Then the resources in the Da Qi palace would help them cultivate and become immortals.

However, they did not expect that in the end, they themselves would be treated as resources!

Fortunately, the worst of these singers and dancers were sorcerers at the visualization realm. They quickly calmed down after the initial panic, and some of them immediately mobilized their inspiration and cast spells to attack the Emperor Gao Yang.

More people chose to flee, rushing towards the closed doors and windows of the hall.

However, the emperor on the throne wiped the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and seemed to have not seen the spells at all. He allowed several spells to fall on him without dodging or evading.

Those powerful spells had no effect at all when they fell on Gao Yang. They were like a few breezes that only blew his bloody imperial robe.

At the same time, the singers who had escaped to the door were shocked to find that the entire hall was a huge magic circle, which released a terrifying sealing force that trapped them inside. This was at least an ascending-level formation, and it was not something that these mere visualization-level sorcerers could shake.

From the moment they entered the palace, they had become turtles in a jar, canaries in a trap!

The emperor, whose body was covered in blood, had no expression on his face, as if there was only a plate of delicacies in the hall. He waved his hand, and the singing girls and dancers felt as if they were grabbed by an invisible big hand and pulled into the air!

Amid their screams of fear, Emperor Gao Yang opened his bloody mouth again. His sharp teeth looked like rows of sharp blades or a flesh grinding wheel, swallowing all the singers and dancers!
The sound of bones breaking and flesh tearing was incessant, as well as continuous screams, but soon the screams faded into silence. In the hall, there was only the bloody figure on the throne. The bloody mouth was gone, replaced by smooth skin as delicate as a baby's, with an immortal-like appearance, like a wise and benevolent monarch.

An even more powerful pressure than before emanated from the emperor, as if he were a living god walking in the world.

A sound of footsteps was heard from outside the hall, and a middle-aged man in a purple robe and with a dignified bearing slowly walked into the hall.

It was Yan Shiren, the Prime Minister of the Great Qi Dynasty.

Yan Shiren looked like a capable minister who could govern the country well, and there was no trace of the "treacherous" or "evil" minister as rumored in the court.

At this moment, Yan Shiren seemed to have not noticed the bloody mess in the hall at all. Instead, he showed a look of joy, knelt down before the throne, and said:

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty has made another step forward to the top of the stairs. This Soul-Swallowing Immortal Technique is truly powerful! It will take Your Majesty two days to become an immortal!" Millions of evil cult rebels besieging the capital, the world in chaos and the Great Qi having lost one-sixth of its territory, these were nothing to the emperor in the court.

No one knew that this emperor had already achieved the status of virtual immortal and was only one step away from truly becoming a god.

As long as one can become a god, it would be easy for a divine emperor to control the world!
This is also the reason why the emperor never took the rebellion of various religions seriously.

To him, the chaos caused by hundreds of religions is not as important as one person's spiritual elixir.

Gao Yang, who was sitting on the throne, had a calm expression, having regained the dignity and majesty that originally belonged to the common ruler of the world. He said slowly:
“My dear Lord Yan, please stand up. I know my own realm. Even though I have been in this realm of virtual immortality for a long time, I am still a little short of the true meaning of becoming a god. This little truth has not been obtained for a long time, and it is no longer something that the Soul Devouring Immortal Technique can achieve. I…”

At this point, his expression suddenly darkened, and his tone became grim:

“…and eat more people!”

Then he shook his head slightly:

"However, no matter how many human spirits of these mortal fools we swallow, it will be in vain. There is always a trace of power of heaven missing. Even if they are born chosen by God, they are still incomplete. Eating them will not help us much..."

Yan Shiren smiled slightly and bowed again:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! God helps Your Majesty, and the gods protect Your Majesty! I am here to report a piece of good news to Your Majesty. The governor of Hedong Road, Li Yan, has received Your Majesty's order and has been ordered to go to Beijing and is about to enter the city! This person is born by God, and he is not deaf or dumb, nor disabled, and he has even ascended the ladder. He is the chosen one for refining the Great Human Spirit Pill!"

After a pause, Yan Shiren continued:

"The five great gods have not given us any oracle for many days. I believe there are changes in the underworld. It is time for Your Majesty to escape the eyes and ears of the five gods and accomplish the supreme feat!"

Hearing this, Emperor Gao Yang, who was originally sitting on the throne, suddenly began to breathe rapidly. His original dignified and majestic demeanor became much more anxious, and he quickly said:
"As expected, you still love me! He is a perfect, natural born chosen by God, and has already ascended the throne. What a genius and treasure he is. He must have touched the aura of Heaven. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the root of Heaven! Quick, summon him into the palace!"

He had also heard of Li Yan, the governor of Hedong Road, but he did not expect that the other party had already cultivated to the level of ascending. As a virtual immortal, he deeply understood that the significance of this was incomparable!

Yan Shiren smiled and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, Li Yan has brought 200,000 evil-suppressing soldiers and has set up camp five miles outside the capital. The millions of evil cult soldiers besieging the city are unable to see clearly their true strength and have temporarily retreated. In addition, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers from all over the country who have joined forces with Li Yan. The siege of Kyoto has been lifted. Your Majesty has solved all the problems without using any soldiers. You just sit in the palace and everything is solved. You are truly a god sent from heaven and have great blessings."

"In my humble opinion, since Li Yan has already arrived outside the capital, why don't you hold an entry ceremony for him, personally meet the governor of Hedong, Li Yan, on the tower of the East Gate, strip him of his military power, bring him into the palace, and let his spirit rest in peace. This will firstly demonstrate your majesty's benevolence, secondly shock the powerful and the wealthy, and thirdly, he will ascend the steps and ascend to become a god in front of the world, which will benefit our Great Qi for thousands of years. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
