Chapter 313: The Ancestor of Chu State, the Demon of the Ancient Tomb!

Chapter 313: The Ancestor of Chu State, the Demon of the Ancient Tomb!
The capital of Chu State had towering city walls, like a lurking giant beast.

Pingyang City has a wall that is sixteen meters high and twelve meters wide. The wall is covered with blue bricks, which makes it thick, solid, majestic and profound.

There are towers, arrow towers and gate towers on the city gates, towering into the sky and majestic. Outside the city wall is a 40-meter-wide and 10-meter-deep moat with rippling green waves and boats coming and going.

"Great Demon, Guardian of the East..."

Wang Yi looked in the direction of the Chu State Palace, murmured something, and followed the crowd into the Chu State capital, Pingyang City.

Since the State of Chu was located in the west and bordered the west, Pingyang City connected the important roads between the east and the west and was one of the major hub cities.

Merchants from the East and the West came and went here, including Orientals with black hair and black eyes, and Westerners with blond hair and blue eyes. The flow of customers was endless, and the prosperous trade made Pingyang City extremely prosperous.

The streets in the city are crisscrossed like a chessboard.

There are shops and restaurants on both sides of the street, and residential houses are spread out in clusters. The population is no less than one million. On weekdays, there is a lot of traffic, and all the resources in the country are transported here from the Grand Canal.

Zuixiao Tower is like a fairy pavilion in the sky.

Wang Yi, holding a flag, walked into this elegant and ethereal restaurant.

Once you step into the lobby, you will be intoxicated by the aroma of wine. The lobby is spacious and bright, with tables and chairs arranged in an orderly manner, all of which are meticulously crafted. Famous calligraphy and paintings hang on the wall, adding an elegant atmosphere.

Stepping into the elegant room on the top floor, you will see carved window frames and lightly hanging gauze curtains. Looking down from the balcony, you can see the bustling scene downstairs. Drinking here makes you feel like you are out of this world, all your worries disappear, and you feel like you are floating in the air.

The roof is high and wide, with lanterns hanging from the beams. When they light up at night, they look like twinkling stars, illuminating this building high in the sky.

"Master, please enjoy your meal. If you need anything, just ring the bell beside you."

The waiter was dressed like a scholar, and every move he made was elegant. After bowing, he slowly walked out.

Wang Yi hummed lightly, and continued to eat the food and wine in a comfortable manner without stopping with his chopsticks.

Discussions from all directions spontaneously flooded into his ears, allowing him to quickly understand the current situation.

Soon, the conversation in the private room in the west corner caused his eyes to fluctuate for a moment.

"The power of Chu is still there. It may not be easy to explore it by force. After all, the true foundation of Chu still exists."

"Tiger power? Where does the Chu State get its tiger power now? When a pack of wolves kills a tiger, the Chu State will surely lose sight of one thing while focusing on another. In this way, we can take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters."

"Hey, the hero who protects the country! A few years ago, the wedding of Sima Linkong and Nalan Ruoshui was really a big drama. The young man named Chen Nan was such a talent, but the King of Chu was forced to rebel because of a woman. Not only was he severely slapped in the face, but even his most beloved little princess was directly abducted. It was really ridiculous."

"Back then, Chen Nan was able to pull the bow of Hou Yi many times. With the bow in hand, his strength was comparable to that of a peerless warrior. Such a top warrior... was forced to rebel because of a woman... The stupidity of the King of Chu is a pity. The decline of the Chu State is not far away."

"In the battle of the capital of Jin, Chen Nan shocked the continent. With his third-level body, he angrily chopped down the evil young man, slayed the dragon with his flying knife, and fought against a thousand-man army alone. He killed a fifth-level peerless master with his Seven Demonic Swords."

"Now Chen Nan is famous throughout the world and is ranked as one of the top ten young men in the East and West Continents. I wonder if Emperor Chu regrets it?"

"Needless to say, I regret it immensely. If Chu could vigorously cultivate a genius like Chen Nan, he might be able to break the three-kingdom balance of power. Anyone who comes here will regret it."

……

"Cough cough cough..." A low and hoarse cough was heard, and the door of the private room opened without wind, and an extremely old man walked into the room.

The old man's eyes were cloudy and lifeless, his teeth had long fallen out, his skin was wrinkled like tree bark, and there were only a few dozen sparse hairs on his bald head, which exuded a rotten and dead air.

The old man came and sat down opposite Wang Yi, glanced at the flags that were placed casually, and said in a hoarse voice: "Observe others, observe yourself, and observe the world. Calculate the sky, calculate the earth, and calculate the human world. Master of Calculation, Taoist Taiyi, can you calculate when this old man will die?"

The name of the divine fortune teller is now well-known throughout the East and West Fantasy Continents.

The mysterious calculation technique attracted countless bigwigs, but also made people very wary. After several ambushes and kills, his strength as a sixth-level Zhenwu shocked countless forces in the East and West Fantasy Continents.

From then on, the fortune teller became a terrifying figure who should not be provoked.

While countless major forces were wary of him, they were increasingly eager for his ability to save people from disasters, including himself.

Wang Yi put down his chopsticks, looked the old man up and down, and said calmly: "Ancestor of Chu, since you don't believe in fate, why did you come to see me?"

Chu State Xuanzu showed an extremely creepy smile, picked up the wine pot and poured himself a cup, took a sip, smacked his lips and said:
"In recent years, the name of the Divine Calculator has spread throughout the Eastern Fantasy Continent, and even the Western Fantasy Continent. He can calculate the heavens, the earth, and all living beings! He can determine people's fortunes and disasters, and save people from disasters, without fail! This old man... wants to give it a try."

Wang Yi glanced at him calmly and said calmly: "You failed to seize the body, but you are just pretending to be calm. You still haven't given up in your heart."

Chu State Xuanzu's pupils shrank, he put down the wine cup, stared at Wang Yi with dim eyes, grinned and said: "You even know that I failed to seize the body, now I have some recognition of your reputation as a fortune teller."

As he spoke, he tilted his head to look down at the passers-by outside the window, and said self-deprecatingly: "I thought that encountering the descendants of gods and demons was a chance given by God. As long as I plan properly, break my own limits, and shatter the void, becoming an immortal or a god is no longer an unattainable flower in the mirror or the moon in the water. But in the end, it is just an empty dream after all."

Wang Yi raised his cup and pecked at it, then asked calmly, "What did you see inside Chen Nan's body?"

Chu Xuanzu smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Angels with broken wings, demons with broken arms, and headless gods... They all surrounded Chen Nan. My mind, which had not fluctuated for many years, suddenly lost control and I almost fell into an irretrievable situation. Chen Nan is definitely a descendant of gods and demons, and he has a great secret and an unimaginable opportunity to defy the heavens."

As he spoke, he raised his eyes and secretly looked at Taiyi Taoist's expression, but to his disappointment, the other party's expression remained the same, without any change.

Wang Yi put down the wine cup and said indifferently: "I am not interested in Chen Nan's heaven-defying opportunity. You don't need to tempt him with words."

Chu State Xuanzu retracted his gaze, narrowed his eyes, and smiled faintly: "That is a heaven-defying opportunity to become an immortal or a god. Are you really not interested? If the two of us work together, it will be easy to get it."

"Not interested." Wang Yi shook his head slightly: "This so-called heaven-defying opportunity is not something that everyone can bear."

“Not interested?” Chu State Xuanzu murmured, nodded, and said enviously: “A sixth-level Zhenwu strongman of your age really doesn’t need to learn from me to scheme as painstakingly as I do, or even take the evil path in order to survive…”

Chu Xuanzu stared at Wang Yi and said in a deep voice: "I would like to ask you to tell me when I died? What was the cause of death?"

Wang Yi raised his eyebrows, knowing the purpose of the other party's question, and nodded: "Okay, the Guajin Houyi bow, or your own skills."

Chu Xuanzu's face darkened, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Although your rules are the most precious things on the other party, you and I are both sixth-level strongmen. Is this too much?"

Wang Yi said calmly: "Not to mention you, even if gods and demons are in front of me, my rules will not change."

Chu State Xuanzu frowned, pondered for a moment, stood up and said: "Follow me, maybe you will change your mind then." Wang Yi's eyes flashed slightly, he smiled, stood up, picked up the flag and followed.

……

The imperial palace is located in the city center.

The architectural style is majestic, the palaces and pavilions are arranged in an orderly manner, and the flying eaves and brackets are like a phoenix spreading its wings to fly.

The vermilion palace wall separates the imperial palace from the market. Inside the wall is the symbol of power and wealth, while outside the wall is the daily life of the common people.

Royal ancient book library.

Chu Xuanzu came to the inner bookshelf and moved it away with force.

A dark cave entrance was revealed, and the cave spiraled deep into the ground, with strange waves emanating from it.

"I think you have also felt this strange fluctuation. There is an ancient tomb below. Inside is the immortal corpse of a powerful martial immortal. It contains great opportunities." After saying this, Xuanzu of the Chu State led the way.

Wang Yi followed calmly behind him and walked down the dark tunnel for more than thirty meters. A light came from below.

After descending about ten meters, the two came to the light and saw a tunnel full of ancient relics.

The four walls are made of diamond rock as hard as iron. Above the tunnel, there is a luminous pearl inlaid every three meters, and the light is emitted by these pearls.

Walking along the ancient tunnel towards the brighter end, they soon arrived at a bright hall.

Although the main hall is underground and is protected from the erosion of wind and snow, it is also carved with traces of time and is full of ancient relics.

The four walls are covered with exquisite reliefs, mostly depicting gods, demons, monsters and monsters from myths and legends... Pearls are embedded between the reliefs, making the entire hall as bright as day.

Under the illumination of the pearls, the lifelike reliefs seem to have souls that seem to be about to break through the wall.

In the center of the ancient palace is a white jade platform. The jade platform is crystal clear and emits a soft light. On the jade platform, a tall and burly middle-aged man stands in the center.

His long jet-black hair casually fluttered on his shoulders, he had a bronze face, long eyebrows, a straight nose, a square mouth, and a pair of bright black eyes that were so breathtaking that it made people tremble with fear when looking at them.

The man exuded an unparalleled domineering aura and a majestic demeanor that looked down upon the world, making the middle-aged man look like a demon god looking down upon all living beings, with an overwhelming power.

Chu Xuanzu looked at Wang Yi, who looked normal, and said in a low voice: "The strange fluctuations came from this immortal corpse. This senior is a true hero. His deeds are admirable, but his ending is also regrettable."

As he spoke, he jumped onto the jade platform and stopped in front of a line of text.

Wang Yi took a step forward and looked down.

[The demon became an immortal, which is intolerable to heaven. I killed the demon and exterminated the evil to warn the world. Sigh, the demon has a brother, who just happened to return. My seriously injured body fought against him, but I was powerless and died together. My tall and proud body was destroyed in the demon cave. I am ashamed of myself, so I seal myself here! ]

"This senior killed a demon who became an immortal here six or seven thousand years ago. If he had not missed one person, there would probably be another powerful martial immortal in the world."

As Chu Xuanzu said this, he secretly looked at Wang Yi's expression.

Seeing that he looked normal, she couldn't help but frowned slightly, but soon her brows relaxed, she jumped off the jade platform, and said in a deep voice: "Inside is the place where the demons practice."

Wang Yi followed slowly, passed through the ancient temple, and followed the tunnel to an ancient cave that looked like hell on earth.

The bright pearl emitted a mysterious light, and the ground was covered in white.

Looking closely, they were actually thousands of dry bones. Some of the bones had been completely crushed. The slightest surge of air caused bursts of powder to rise, and a negative energy filled the ancient cave.

In the center of the thousands of dry bones was a pool of dried blood.

The walls of the pool were eerie black and red, exuding a chilly air, as if ghosts were floating above them.

This is a gloomy and terrifying mass grave. In the silence, it seems as if thousands of souls are howling, which makes one's scalp tingle and one's heart chilled.

Wang Yi said indifferently: "Sacrificing thousands of lives with blood to achieve immortality, this demon should indeed be killed, and all cultivators who dare to embark on this path should be killed."

Chu Xuanzu sensed the murderous intent that enveloped him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said faintly: "I am only borrowing some insights from the inheritance of the demon way. To practice both the martial arts and the immortal way, one must be a genius. I don't have such ability."

As he spoke, he changed the subject and said calmly: "In the east of Tianyuan Continent, the original Xianhuan Continent, after experiencing countless wars, many heroes coexisted and hundreds of countries divided the country."

"Three of the great powers occupy three quarters of the entire eastern territory, namely the Chu State in the west, the Baiyue State in the north, and the Anping State in the southeast."

"The three superpowers do not share borders but are separated by countless small countries, but the vast majority of these small countries are vassal states of the three superpowers."

"The Chu State, the Baiyue State, and the Anping State are three countries with equal strength. They have been living in peace for the past ten years without any major wars."

Chu Xuanzu suddenly coughed violently and said in a low voice: "I am the foundation of Chu's existence. If Chu loses my protection, Baiyue and Anping will certainly launch an expedition. Under the flames of war, the Eastern Fantasy Continent is in turmoil. If the Western Fantasy Continent takes the opportunity to attack, the lives of the people will be devastated. How many tens of millions, hundreds of millions?"

Wang Yi lowered his eyes and said, "You want to use justice to make me compromise?"

Chu Xuanzu nodded solemnly: "If I die, Chu will be in chaos, and the Eastern Fantasy Continent will also fall into war. This is what I don't want to see, and I'm sure you don't want the people of the Eastern Fantasy Continent to suffer either."

Wang Yi said indifferently: "The root cause of the chaos in Chu is you. For your own selfish desires, you tried to break through with evil ways, but you didn't care about the consequences. What's the point of living like this?"

Chu Xuanzu's face froze, and then he sighed: "Now that things have come to this, I have no way out. If I could know my own fate, maybe there would be a turnaround. I hope that the Divine Calculator can help me for the sake of the people of the East Fantasy Continent."

Wang Yi did not give a reply, but turned around and returned the same way. He stood in front of the jade platform, looking at the divine and demonic man on the jade platform, and said calmly:

"You are truly ignorant and fearless. This man is called the Great Demon, the guardian of the Eastern Continent, and his father is the most powerful man in the world. If you mess with him, you will die, and the Chu State will be destroyed."

Chu Xuanzu's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a serious tone: "What do you mean by this? What is the strongest person in the world? Are the consequences of touching him really so terrible?"

Wang Yi tilted his head and smiled faintly: "Above the sixth-level Zhenwu, there are seven levels of Xianwu, God King, God Emperor, Heaven Level, Heaven-defying Level, and Heaven-defying King Level. For the real strongest of heaven and earth, the sixth-level Zhenwu is an ant and can be killed with one glance. If you want to die, there is no need to drag me with you."
