Jackie Chan Adventures: I have everything I need now

"Where is this place?"

At this moment, the primordial spirit of the Divine Capital stood tall, exuding a fiery aura. The true fire of the sun, which has illuminated the world since the beginning of time, now shines on the boundless darkness of this chaotic place. Yet, at the center of the fire lies an infinitely chaotic environment.

As far as the eye could see, there was no end in sight. A cold wind blew by, accompanied by the echoing tolling of bells, which made even the gods wonder.

Wasn't he transforming himself by absorbing the true fire of the sun within the Great Sun Temple?!

Why did my primordial spirit end up here?

I am still on the Sun Star, but I don't know exactly where I am.

Suddenly, his heart trembled. Since he stepped into the prehistoric world, the premonition of a great opportunity from the Sun Star had become stronger and stronger.

As Shendu turned his gaze into the depths of chaotic darkness, he felt his heart pounding.

Seeing this, the god pondered with doubt and stepped into the depths of chaos and darkness.

His surroundings were the eternally burning true fire of the sun.

As Shendu reached the end, the scene he witnessed deeply shocked him.

A large bell stood proudly in front of him.

Its body is permeated with a chaotic, dark yellow color, ancient and mysterious, as if it possesses endless mysteries for people to explore.

The bell is carved with images of earth, fire, feng shui, sun, moon, and stars, which are common in the primordial world. Its appearance is vivid and lifelike, as if it has a spirit. The sun, moon, and stars are bright and sparkling, and the earth, fire, feng shui are wild and boundless.

Even the gods sensed an incomparably magnificent power of law.

That was divine power powerful enough to suppress the entire primordial world.

The power of the laws of time and space permeates the depths of the entire Sun Star, and even saints cannot set foot within it without its permission.

"This is!"

The eyes of the capital were wide with shock.

He realized that this great bell was the Chaos Bell, one of the three great innate treasures of the primordial world.

It was also a treasure in the hands of the demon clan's Donghuang Taiyi, a powerful weapon to suppress the witch clan.

Since the end of the Lich War, the Chaos Bell has been hidden from the world.

Unexpectedly, this treasure has returned to the place where it was conceived.

It's really unimaginable.

Could it be that his opportunity lies in this innate treasure, the Chaos Bell?

wrong!

While pondering, even the god couldn't help but take a step back.

This is because, not long ago, the Sage Nuwa handed over the Demon Emperor Sword, which represented the Demon Emperor, to her.

Now, the Chaos Bell, which once belonged to Donghuang Taiyi, has fallen into his hands again.

Could it be that the destiny of the demon race in the primordial world has truly fallen upon him, Shen Du?

Don't do it.

He doesn't want to be the Demon Emperor.

Although the Demon Emperor has a great opportunity, he also has a great karmic debt and a great trouble that he needs to resolve.

Unbeknownst to him, he seemed to have stepped into a colossal pit.

You have to go in, or you won't be able to.

"Forget it, why bother with all that?"

"This is a supreme innate treasure, the Chaos Bell!"

"Even the Heavenly Dao Saints would quarrel over the Chaos Bell, how could I possibly avoid it!"

"What harm is there in jumping into a mere pit?!"

Shendu gritted his teeth and immediately reached out, wanting to snatch the Chaos Bell that was hanging in the depths of darkness.

The moment his index finger touched the Chaos Bell, a majestic bell tolled, echoing through the mind of the capital.

In an instant, the primordial spirit of the capital city fell into a deep sleep.

Rather than being in a deep sleep, it's more accurate to say it merged into the Chaos Bell.

"."

After a long while, Shen Du groggily opened his eyes and saw a figure wearing a long robe with a three-legged golden crow brand. This figure seemed to stand there, and all living beings in the world would bow down and worship because of the aura emanating from him.

"Donghuang Taiyi!"

Shen Du scrutinized the figure, and a name came to mind.

The Eastern Emperor, a demon race from the ancient Lich Age.

Emperor Jun, the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan.

The Eastern Emperor of the Demon Clan, Taiyi.

The former signifies respect, the latter signifies fame.

"You are the Sun Lord, succeeding me and my elder brother!"

His words were calm and unassuming, showing no trace of the domineering nature of a demon emperor.

But Shen Du could sense that invisible suppression.

Although he possessed memories of the trajectories of countless calamities throughout the primordial world, it did not mean he could underestimate the various powerful beings of the primordial world. Facing the divine capital of Donghuang Taiyi, he said, "Senior, you are right. This junior is indeed the Sun Lord of this day!"

Only those who are recognized by the rules of heaven and earth and by the Sun Star can be the true Lord of the Sun Star.

As for the title of Sun Star Lord, it was merely an honor bestowed by the Heavenly Court.

Shen Du realized that the Donghuang Taiyi before him was merely a remnant soul with limited power. If they were to actually fight, he feared he would be no match for him.

Ultimately, it was still the era of the Lich King, the number one person below the Sage, who single-handedly fought against several Ancestral Witches.

"it is good!"

Donghuang Taiyi nodded, then his gaze sharpened as if he had seen something.

In an instant, he chuckled, "You possess my Demon Emperor Sword!"

"However, I remember that I gave this top-grade innate spiritual treasure to Nuwa. How did it end up in your possession?"

Upon hearing this, Shendu explained, "Saint Nuwa, less than three days after I assumed the position of Lord of the Sun Star, she sent her mount to deliver this supreme innate spiritual treasure to me."

"Oh, is that so?"

A cunning glint flashed in Donghuang Taiyi's eyes, completely devoid of his former domineering nature. He spoke in a persuasive manner, "Do you want this Chaos Bell?"

Without a second thought, the god spoke up, "In the primordial world, who wouldn't want to possess such a supreme innate treasure!"

"Of course, junior."

"and many more!"

As they were talking, even the gods realized that this Chaos Bell seemed to be your most precious treasure, Donghuang Taiyi. What did you mean by saying that?

To give him this innate treasure? No, no, no, absolutely impossible.

There's no way it's that cheap!
"That's good, since you have this idea!"

"Now that you have obtained the Demon Emperor's Sword, you shall naturally become the fifth Demon Emperor of my demon race!"

"I see that your cultivation is still shallow, so I may entrust the Chaos Bell to you!"

As these words were spoken, Shen Du's eyes twitched violently.

The thought of obtaining the Chaos Bell filled him with ecstatic joy.

But the thought of becoming the Demon Emperor caused that initial joy to fade away.

"Senior Taiyi, how could I possibly refuse the title of Demon Emperor?!"

Shen Du waved his hands repeatedly, his eyes revealing his rejection of the Demon Emperor's throne.

He thought this was something he couldn't refuse, but when Donghuang Taiyi learned that Shendu didn't want to be the Demon Emperor, he simply said, "If you don't want to be it, no problem."

Upon hearing this, Shen Du immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But Donghuang Taiyi's next words left him helpless.

"You are not fit to be the Demon Emperor!"

"How did you manage to obtain the Demon Emperor Sword?!"

"You are not fit to be the Demon Emperor!"

"Why did Fellow Daoist Nuwa entrust the Demon Emperor Sword to you?"

"You don't want to be the Demon Emperor!" "The moment you draw the Demon Emperor's Sword, everything will be out of your control!"

"I once entrusted this Demon Emperor Sword to Fellow Daoist Nuwa, and the Ten Demon Saints were aware of this!"

Donghuang Tai's voice was calm, yet it was like a sharp thorn, piercing Shen Du's chest.

If you don't want to be the Demon Emperor, you've accepted the Demon Emperor's Sword.

If you don't want to be the Demon Emperor, the Demon Emperor's Sword is already in your hands.

Moreover, Nuwa is a saint of their demon race. The reason she handed the Demon Emperor Sword to you is that she wants you to become the emperor of the demon race.

Even though more than half of the Ten Great Demon Saints have perished, half still remain.

If you were to take out the Demon Emperor Sword, many demon saints would surely believe that Nuwa, the saint of the demon race, would recognize you as the Demon Emperor.

When the time comes, you'll have to admit it whether you want to or not.

This implies that someone has draped the imperial robe over my body.

We have to go whether we want to or not.

You yourself may not acknowledge it, but the Demon Saint does.

People from other powerful factions, seeing this scene, would wonder what it meant.

You obtained the Demon Emperor's Sword from the Sage Nuwa and the Demon Saint Venerable of the Demon Clan. If you are not the Demon Emperor, then who is?!

"Ugh!"

Shen Du let out a long sigh.

"How can there be so much scheming in this world!"

In front of Donghuang Taiyi, Shendu looked helpless.

He clearly only wanted to obtain the great opportunity contained within the Sun Star.

First, he obtained the position of Lord of the Sun Star, then he received a treasure bestowed by Nuwa, and during the baptism, his primordial spirit escaped into the depths of the Sun Star, where he met Donghuang Taiyi.

There were clearly no pitfalls at any of these steps.

But when connected, they form a perfectly intact, enormous pit.

The throne of the Demon Emperor!

"Young friend, I wish to bestow upon you this innate treasure, but what about the position of Demon Emperor? Do you think it is right?"

Donghuang Taiyi's eyes held a half-smile, a look of smug satisfaction, leaving Shendu feeling both helpless and resigned.

In the primordial world, no old fox who has lived for countless years is simple.

Even back then, the Demon Emperor Sword represented the calculation that a new Demon Emperor would be born.

"when!"

"it is good!"

Seeing that even the gods agreed to make him the Demon Emperor, Donghuang Taiyi was not to be outdone.

"This innate treasure, the Chaos Bell, is now yours to possess!"

"But there is one more thing I would like to ask you to do for me!"

Shen Du's eyes lit up. What else could he possibly interfere with?

He agreed, but won't he just jump into another huge pitfall?!
My mind was filled with countless guesses, but then it suddenly occurred to me that since I had already jumped into the pit of the Demon Emperor, how big could the other pit be? Could it be even bigger than the Demon Emperor's throne?!

He immediately declared confidently, "No problem, Senior Taiyi, please feel free to ask if there's anything I can help you with!"

"Let me make it clear beforehand: I'm happy to help, but there must be compensation!"

He couldn't possibly help for nothing, could he?

He was manipulated by seemingly disjointed events, which were then twisted into a coherent sequence. He was forced to become the future Demon Emperor, with the reward being merely the position of the Sun Star Lord, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Demon Emperor Sword, and an innate supreme treasure, the Chaos Bell.

As for Donghuang Taiyi's busy work, since there was no reward, he was too lazy to do it.

Becoming the Demon Emperor would be a good choice for him.

This is simply because he became the Demon Emperor and the Sage Nuwa, at least in name only.

"You are born with the destiny of humanity. In the great calamity to come, you will only need to do me a small favor."

"Go to the Netherworld and send this remnant soul of mine to reincarnation!"

Upon hearing Donghuang Taiyi's words, Shendu froze on the spot.

He seemed to remember that the Nine Netherworld was a place created by Houtu, one of the twelve ancestral witches of the witch clan, who transformed herself into reincarnation.

She herself also gained immense merit and attained the realm of a Primordial Golden Immortal.

However, being confined to the underworld, once one steps out of the Nine Netherworld, one's cultivation level will drop to the peak of Quasi-Saint.

You, Donghuang Taiyi, want him to take your remnant soul to the Nine Netherworld so you can be reincarnated and start anew?!

Are you kidding me?!

I'm afraid that as soon as Shendu arrived in the Netherworld, Houtu would immediately appear and easily subdue him.

Upon thinking of this, Shendu couldn't help but gasp and shake his head repeatedly, "No, no!"

"Senior Taiyi, aren't you pushing me into a fire pit with this action!?"

Carrying the remnant soul of Donghuang Taiyi into the Nine Netherworld is tantamount to going to the execution ground.

"Cough cough!"

You don't need to worry so much.

"You are blessed with the fortune of humanity, and you have also been shielded from the secrets of heaven by your fellow Daoist Nuwa. The karma on your body has long been concealed!"

"Even a Heavenly Saint cannot deduce your whereabouts or what you intend to do!"

"So you can rest assured about this matter; there is no danger."

Upon hearing this, Shen Du finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, due to the series of schemes and traps he had been caught in, Shendu still appeared wary and asked, "What is this Humanity's Destiny? How come it's on me, Senior Taiyi?"

He knew about the primordial world and the Heavenly Dao.

The truth about humanity, as gleaned from rumors and gossip, was something even the gods only knew from novels written and passed down from previous lives.

I don't know if it's true or not.

Besides, he's only been in the prehistoric world for a short time; how could the destiny of humanity be on him?!

Shouldn't this human destiny reside with the current human ruler?
What does this mean for a dragon?!

wrong.

Could this very human compassion and destiny be a trap?!

What exactly does this primordial world mean?!

He's only been here a short time, and so many traps have been dug, just waiting for him to jump in!
I was speechless.

"Ahem, you will understand this matter in time."

"Now, I, the Emperor, will hand over the Chaos Bell to you. You may refine the restrictions within it."

After saying that, accompanied by the sound of a bell tolling once more, Shen Du felt his vision shift, and he left the interior of the Chaos Bell and came to the outside world.

Looking ahead, one sees the vast and enormous Chaos Bell transformed into a small bell, hanging from the waist of the Divine Capital.

A wisp of primordial chaos and primordial energy emanated, and the small bell turned transparent.

"This treasure, which has been with me for countless years, is now entrusted to you."

"I am now going to sleep and recuperate. If there is any important matter, you may shake the Chaos Bell and I will wake up."

After he finished speaking, Donghuang Taiyi's remnant soul fell into slumber within the Chaos Bell.

At this moment, the capital city that obtained the Chaos Bell felt no joy, only helplessness.

Subsequently, Shen Du's primordial spirit began to leave the depths of the Sun Star.

In just a moment, he returned to the Great Sun Temple. The moment his primordial spirit returned to its place, an incomparably vast aura surged up, causing the true fire of the sun on the entire Sun Star to stir.

But the moment the gods opened their eyes, the restless true fire of the sun instantly returned to calm.

At this very moment, Shen Du's primordial spirit cultivation had reached the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. He was only one step away from breaking through to become a Quasi-Saint or a Primordial Golden Immortal.

His physical strength, under the baptism of the true fire of the sun, reached the same level as the primordial spirit realm.
