Covering the Sky: Rise Starting with Card Draws

Chapter 104 Four Imperial Weapons, Hengyu Furnace Arrives

The lid and body of the Devouring Demon Jar had been separated for many years for some unknown reason. Now, this imperial weapon, forged from the old body of a ruthless man, has finally been perfected in Chen Hao's hands. It floats in front of Chen Hao, radiating a terrifying dark light, like a black hole.

"Could that mark be—"

Ji Ziyue stared wide-eyed at the ghost face mark on the jar, finally remembering the legend of the Ruthless Great Emperor.

"The Void Mirror, the Devouring Demon Jar, and the Chaos Green Lotus left by our ancestors—with these, we have three Imperial Weapons. Perhaps we can truly awaken our ancestors who are slumbering in the Desolate Tower."

Yan Ruyu said happily.

"What? The Desolate Tower? That legendary immortal artifact?! Wait—awakening the ancestor? Could it be that the Azure Emperor isn't dead, but merely in slumber?"

Ji Ziyue was shocked, her mind filled with confusion, and she had a bad feeling.

If the Azure Emperor were still alive, how dare the Ji family humiliate his descendants like this? Wouldn't the Azure Emperor punish the Ji family severely after he wakes up?

Oh no, my family!

If what the descendant of the Demon Emperor said is true, then it seems that the only way for her and her family to survive is through Chen Hao, this devil. Only through Chen Hao's connections can she and her family possibly be saved.

Thinking of this, Ji Ziyue felt her vision go black, as if the entire Ji family, including herself, was doomed to a dark future, and that she was destined to fall into the hands of Chen Hao, this devilish star.

Ji Ziyue felt frustrated and couldn't help but grind her little tiger teeth. She was so angry, but this seemed to be the best solution.

"It's not three imperial weapons, but four."

Chen Hao shook his head.

"Four pieces? Oh, I remember now, you are also a descendant of Emperor Fuxi, and you have found the ancestral artifact Fuxi Dragon Stele. But isn't that imperial artifact quite damaged and requires a long period of nurturing and repair?"

If the Fuxi Dragon Stele were to bombard the Desolate Tower while it was in a damaged state, it would likely worsen the destruction of this imperial weapon. It's better not to; after all, it's your ancestral artifact.

Yan Ruyu was taken aback at first, and then she began to persuade Chen Hao.

If we're talking about who most wants to awaken the Azure Emperor, it's definitely Yan Ruyu, the fallen descendant of the Demon Emperor who wants to revive her family at this moment. However, as Chen Hao's wife, she naturally has to consider Chen Hao himself and the future of the Chen family, and can't just think about herself.

"A descendant of Emperor Fuxi?"

Ji Ziyue was taken aback at first, but then she thought about it and realized that it was common for these aristocratic families to intermarry. It was not incomprehensible that Chen Hao had both the blood of the void and the bloodline of Fuxi.

"The fourth imperial weapon I'm referring to isn't the Fuxi Dragon Stele, but rather the Jiang family's Sun God Furnace."

Chen Hao cut his wrist, and a crystal-clear, fragrant crimson blood, like a divine medicine or the source of the Dao, flowed out. Part of it was smeared on the Void Mirror, and the other part was scattered in the void, as if he was summoning something.

The Void Mirror shone brightly, unleashing unprecedented and terrifying divine power.

However, Ji Ziyue's keen spiritual senses seemed to allow her to perceive that the deity within the Void Mirror was dissatisfied with something and was protesting against something. In the end, however, she had no choice but to help Chen Hao open a spatial tunnel leading to a certain place.

"Could this scoundrel be a descendant of Emperor Hengyu? Just how many imperial families did his ancestors intermarry with? But even if he is a descendant of Emperor Hengyu, he couldn't possibly summon the Hengyu Furnace from afar—"

Ji Ziyue wrinkled her cute little nose and muttered to herself in confusion.

At that moment, the blood that Chen Hao spat out condensed into a human figure in the void.

"Bring the furnace!"

With a loud shout from the figure summoned by Chen Hao, a nearly transparent bronze furnace, resembling multicolored glazed glass, pierced through the void, followed by the Sun God Furnace, which shone like a radiant blood phoenix.

The Sun God's Furnace shone with dazzling light, almost blinding people, so few noticed the area beneath it.

After that, a fist-sized, crystal-clear bronze furnace also quietly arrived across the starry sea.

"Um?!"

However, this small, fist-sized furnace made the usually calm and composed Chen Hao's eyes widen instantly. He quickly put the small bronze furnace away. Chen Hao's speed was so fast that, apart from the deities of the Void Mirror and the Hengyu Furnace, no one else present noticed that the furnace had ever appeared.

After all, the fact that it could resonate so strongly with the human desires he cultivated meant that this must be the infamous Goddess Furnace that had been tainted by Ziwei Star for hundreds of thousands of years.

This is a divine weapon that Emperor Hengyu personally helped his friends in the Dao of Human Desire to forge after he attained the Dao and became an emperor. Moreover, there is a furnace within a furnace. On the outside, it is just a goddess furnace of the saint weapon level, but inside there is a furnace of the quasi-emperor level.

The Goddess Furnace was forged by Emperor Hengyu after he became an emperor. This is the key point. It means that the laws and array patterns within it are all of the emperor level. It can be said that if it were not limited by the material, the Goddess Furnace and the furnace hidden within it could be forged into imperial weapons, just like the Divine Furnace of the Departing Fire that was summoned earlier.

However, a traitor in the Human Desire Path once stole the Goddess Furnace and used its power to abduct all the goddesses of Ziwei Star, living happily and peacefully until their death.

After the death of this traitor of the Human Desire Path, the entire system of the Human Desire Path was attacked and destroyed by all forces and systems of Ziwei Star.

The Taoist sect of Renyudao, with its long history and profound tradition, withered away and could no longer see the light of day, leaving only a few scattered successors to eke out a living.

The terrifying achievements of that traitor of the Path of Human Desire made the Path of Human Desire, especially the Goddess Furnace, infamous on Ziwei Star. Even today, hundreds of thousands of years later, people on Ziwei Star still turn pale at the mention of the Goddess Furnace.

Although few people in Beidou know about the dark past of the Goddess Furnace, who knows if some knowledgeable passerby might suddenly reveal everything? And what's most frightening is that kind of passerby who only has a superficial understanding and makes wild guesses.

Furthermore, Chen Hao wants to visit Ziwei Star in the future, and he cannot be influenced by the bad reputation brought about by that traitor Renyu Dao who only cares about his own pleasure and does not care about the continuation of the lineage.

When no one is around, Chen Hao can take out the Goddess Furnace to play with it and study the Dao patterns left by Emperor Hengyu after he became an emperor. However, he doesn't want anyone to find out about it in public, so as not to have a bad influence.

"The phantom summoned with his own blood was actually able to bring the Jiang family's Sun God Furnace to life. Could that phantom be a fragment of the Dao principles of Emperor Hengyu within the bloodline of this great villain?"

After the light from the Hengyu Furnace softened slightly, Ji Ziyue reopened her eyes and stared in disbelief at the several imperial weapons before her.

Ji Ziyue thought she was numb and wouldn't be shocked anymore, but she still underestimated Chen Hao. She didn't expect that he could actually seize the Hengyu Furnace of the Jiang family in such an outrageous way. This was really too heaven-defying!

This level of bloodline concentration is probably unmatched even by the children of ordinary emperors.

If Ji Ziyue hadn't already known that Chen Hao possessed an extremely high concentration of Void Emperor Blood, she would probably have mistakenly believed that Chen Hao was the reincarnation of Emperor Hengyu's illegitimate son, just from the scene of Hengyu Furnace being summoned.
