The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 242 The Devouring Emperor
Before long, information about the indestructible golden body on the ancient star of the Big Dipper was presented to the Feathered Emperor.

"It's actually an indestructible golden body native to the ancient star of the Big Dipper! Heaven is helping me!" The Feathered Emperor flipped through the dossier in his hand, his expression overjoyed.

The Undying Golden Body, as the top-tier physique in the human realm, is only inferior to the Chaos Body and Immortal Spirit, and it is not so easy to be born.

Even on the ancestral star of the indestructible golden body, it is extremely difficult for a person with an innate indestructible golden body to be born, and there is no guarantee that they will be able to grow up.

Not all those who achieved the Great Perfection of the Golden Body in ancient history were born with the Golden Body. Most of them possessed the bloodline of the Golden Body in part, and then cultivated step by step until their bloodline returned to its ancestral form, thus becoming the complete Golden Body.

The same applies to the Azure Sky Overlord Body; naturally born Azure Sky Overlord Bodies are extremely rare.

It was so difficult for their ancestral star to give birth to someone with an innate, indestructible golden body, let alone the ancient star of the Big Dipper.

The Feathered Emperor dreamed of capturing an indestructible golden body and a Heavenly Tyrant Body, but the ancestral stars of both races were not to be underestimated, and their strength surpassed that of the Feathered Divine Dynasty.

If this matter were to be exposed, it would likely be targeted by the Golden Body lineage, and could even ignite a major war.

However, it is not realistic to ask the Ascension Emperor to give up his indestructible golden body. If he misses this opportunity, it will probably take a long time to find another innate indestructible golden body.

Soon, the Feathered Emperor made up his mind.

"Bring this indestructible golden body back immediately. Be careful not to make too much noise."

The Big Dipper shines in the eastern wilderness.

A small mountain village in the State of Yan.

In the village lived a brother and sister who were left all alone. Their parents had died in an accident, leaving only the two of them.

However, without the protection of adults, the brother and sister lived a precarious life, growing up relying on the kindness of others.

Although life was tough, the two of them found joy in hardship and did not give up.

By chance, the older brother obtained a piece of bronze iron. To make the little girl happy, he made a ghost face mask out of the bronze iron and hoped that the little girl could live happily every day.

The little girl reciprocated by collecting the scraps of bronze iron and making a bronze ring, which she then put on her brother's hand.

If nothing unexpected happens, the two will live happily ever after in the small mountain village, eventually turning into a handful of dust.

Unfortunately, the arrival of outsiders shattered the tranquility of the small mountain village. They claimed that the little girl's brother possessed a special constitution and wanted to take him back to the divine kingdom to be nurtured.

The mountain village was very isolated and did not know how powerful the Divine Dynasty was. They only knew that those who could cultivate were extraordinary figures, so the little girl's brother did not refuse.

The little girl naturally wanted to go to the Divine Dynasty with her brother, but the people of the Divine Dynasty refused her on the grounds that her body was useless and she could not cultivate. Even her brother's pleas were to no avail.

Afterwards, the envoys of the Divine Dynasty forcibly took away the little girl's brother. The little girl was unwilling to be separated from him and chased after him, crying and shouting, from day to night, from a clear blue sky to a torrential downpour.

She continued until she was exhausted and collapsed in the mud, with no strength left to chase after him.

For the rest of the time, the little girl stayed outside the mountain village, waiting for her brother's return, as she and her brother had promised each other.

Unfortunately, the little girl only received devastating news: her brother had tragically died in an accident, leaving behind only a mangled corpse.

The little girl requested to see her brother's remains, but was ruthlessly refused by the envoy of the Feathered God Dynasty, who said that her brother's remains had already been buried in the imperial mausoleum of the Feathered God Dynasty.

From that moment on, the little girl became a completely different person. She began to take reckless risks in her quest to obtain a cultivation technique. She wanted to become powerful, uncover the truth behind her brother's death, and seek revenge.

With this unwavering determination, the little girl plunged headlong into the world of cultivation. Unfortunately, her physique was indeed extremely poor, making it impossible for her to cultivate. Calling her a useless person would not be an exaggeration.

After repeated setbacks, an evil idea was born in the little girl's mind: she wanted to eat people and devour them all over the world to fulfill her desires.

She had seen through the world and believed that since it was a dog-eat-dog world, what was wrong with eating people?

Driven by this madness, the little girl finally devised a plan to eliminate a cultivator, devouring him alive.

To be fair, the flesh and blood of cultivators are indeed a precious medicine, successfully creating a crack in the little girl's sea of ​​consciousness, making it no longer as lifeless as before.

This tiny crack was like the last hope; after countless hardships, the little girl finally embarked on the path of cultivation.

After that, the little girl became increasingly mad, embarking on a path of universal enmity filled with blood and resentment.

Along the way, she had no friends, treating all living beings as nourishment, and wherever she went, both humans and animals perished.

Whether they were mortals or cultivators, anything that was beneficial to her was consumed by her as nourishment for her growth.

In the process of devouring people from all over the world, the little girl absorbed the strengths of many schools of thought and finally created a terrifying demonic art. This significantly increased her efficiency in eating people, and its utilization rate also rose. Gradually, as the little girl consumed more and more cultivators, her physique became extraordinary, her cultivation speed accelerated, and she entered a virtuous cycle.

However, the price of this virtuous cycle was mountains of corpses and seas of blood; countless people fell at the hands of the little girl, becoming resources for her growth.

Such actions naturally aroused public anger, and various forces and races united to begin besieging and killing this great demon with a ghost mask who was wreaking havoc on the world.

Unfortunately, their actions not only failed to kill the great demon, but they were also tricked and killed by the great demon, suffering heavy casualties and further emboldening him.

In the years that followed, the major powers became increasingly cautious in their actions, and on several occasions they pushed this great demon to the brink of despair, but in the end they always failed and the great demon escaped.

Once the injuries were healed, a new round of bloody retaliation ensued, causing heavy losses to all the major forces.

Especially after this great demon stepped into the quasi-emperor realm, he became increasingly mad, brazenly storming into the ultimate imperial pass and fiercely fighting against the geniuses of the universe.

At first, people thought that this great demon had gone mad, blinded by his previous victories, and had lost his sense of self, actually voluntarily charging into the ultimate imperial pass to seek death.

The struggle for the Emperor's Path had reached a fever pitch. At this point, the worst person who dared to remain in the Ultimate Emperor's Pass was a high-level Quasi-Emperor. No one believed that the Great Demon could still walk out of the Ultimate Emperor's Pass alive.

Unfortunately, fate played another cruel joke on them. The Great Demon not only did not perish in the fierce battle at the Ultimate Imperial Pass, but instead grew at an even faster pace, with one after another prodigy falling at her feet and becoming her prey.

In the end, the geniuses of the Ultimate Imperial Pass were so terrified that they united and began to besiege the great demon with the ghost mask.

Unfortunately, it was all too late. This great demon, known to the world as the Devourer of Heaven, had fully grown up, and no prodigy could withstand a single blow from her.

A shrill scream came from the sky. It was the cry of a genius who had been devoured alive by the Devourer of Heaven. Bright red blood splattered out, staining the starry sky crimson.

The forces behind that prodigy could not tolerate it and wanted to use the Supreme Emperor Weapon to kill the Devouring Demon, but the Chu family stopped them.

"The struggle for the Imperial Path is a matter of life and death in one's own hands; outsiders are not allowed to interfere!"

A powerful figure from the Chu family, possessing a perfected hegemony, emerged from the ancient star Tianji, carrying a celestial sword. His imposing presence and sharp killing intent made the world feel as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

Some, unwilling to accept defeat, secretly formed an alliance and worked with all their might to revive several supreme imperial weapons, desperately resisting the power of the Chu family's immortal sword, and finally let out a hoarse shout.

"Your Excellency, if after Devouring Heaven attains enlightenment, you remain so unscrupulous, treating all living beings as worthless, killing them at will for your own amusement, how should we respond?"

In an instant, all eyes in the human realm were on that majestic and domineering figure, awaiting his answer.

After all, the methods Devouring Heaven displayed were far too ruthless, even surpassing those of the Killing Emperor of yesteryear.

If Devouring Heaven were to prove its Dao, it would likely lead to unrest in the future.

Before the Chu family could respond with their fully developed Overlord Body, a clear, cold voice came from the sky.

"After I attain enlightenment, I will only settle the karmic debts with the Feathered Divine Dynasty. As long as others do not offend me, I will be lenient with them!"

"The promise of Devouring Heaven is valid. If Devouring Heaven goes back on its word, the Immortal Sword will quell the chaos!" The Chu Family Overlord immediately responded.

In an instant, apart from the cultivators of the Feathered Divine Dynasty, all the major forces were overjoyed. The reason they had united to eliminate Devourer was because they feared that this ruthless person would emulate the former Killing Emperor and wreak havoc on the entire human realm.

With the lessons of the past laid bare, people have remained fixated on the swallowing of the heavens, fearing a repeat of what happened in the past.

However, now that Devouring Heaven has personally promised in front of the whole world that it will only settle accounts with the Feathered Divine Dynasty, other forces naturally have no intention of resisting it.

If Tun Tian really breaks his promise, the Chu family will naturally take the blame; it has nothing to do with them.

Compared to other forces, the entire Feathered Divine Dynasty was in mourning, their expressions no different from those of people who had lost their parents.

"It's over! It's over! If Devouring Heaven attains enlightenment, I'm afraid no one in the Feathered Divine Dynasty will survive!"

The Feathered Emperor looked flustered. Since Devouring Heaven appeared in the world, it had repeatedly targeted the cultivators of the Feathered Divine Dynasty. The Feathered Divine Dynasty had not been lenient and had used almost every means to try to kill Devouring Heaven.

This demon-slaying alliance, formed by various major powers, was also established through lobbying by the Feathered Divine Dynasty.

The Devouring Heaven has already made a promise that it will only settle accounts with the Feathered Divine Dynasty, the chief culprit, and the Demon Extermination Alliance will inevitably collapse.

"I never imagined that the Feathered Divine Dynasty would be destroyed just over ten thousand years after the Great Emperor's passing?" The Feathered Emperor's expression grew increasingly desperate.

Plant good seeds and you will reap good results; plant bad seeds and you will reap bad results!
Relying on the remaining power of the Feathered Emperor, the Feathered Divine Dynasty acted recklessly in the human realm, ultimately drawing out a formidable enemy.
