The True Lord has arrived

Chapter 335 The Ancient Heavenly Emperor
Jin Tianwang himself possessed a thousand years of cultivation and was an invincible fourth-rank cultivator who roamed freely in all directions. Although he lost the blessing of being the Mountain God of Mount Hua, he still gained a lot from his travels.

He recognized it at a glance as a huge bronze bell suspended in the void.

It is an unparalleled treasure, the most exquisite treasure in the world!
The entire bronze bell is covered with 365 densely packed seals, forming a massive restriction. Its nature is undoubtedly to seal and suppress. When encountering an enemy, simply throw this treasure out, and it will hang above the opponent's head.

No matter what kind of opponent they are, they will be immediately stunned and unable to move.

This is much stronger than the rope Zhou Yan used to tie him up before!

Since ancient times, bells have been far superior to swords, spears, and halberds, and this Yuwang Bell is the best among them.

Jin Tianwang could have held back for a while, but when he saw Zhou Yan appear, he thought to himself, "This kid has Yu Wang's Earth Soul Heaven-Shattering Battle Blade. He seems to have some connection with Yu Wang. If I don't make a move, the bronze bell will probably fall into his hands again."

Since we're already in this situation, we might as well strike first!
He immediately unleashed all his supernatural powers and fiercely struck the bronze wave bell.

The Golden Heavenly King's vital energy was pure innate Geng metal, which resonated and vibrated with the bronze wave bell. This attack was enough to tear apart a mountain, but the bronze wave bell did not make a sound at all.

Only ripples burst open, sweeping across the entire city of Langzhong.

Zhou Yan said, "This is bad!"

"Golden King!"

Zhou Yan's head was buzzing. He glanced around and saw that the Golden Heavenly King had used all his strength to shake the seal of the huge bronze wave bell. When the layers of golden light spread out, ripples spread throughout Langzhong.

Normally, these ripples wouldn't be enough to break the seal.

But at this moment, the divinity of Mount Buzhou, which is the central pillar of this world, has collapsed and disappeared.

Having lost its ability to suppress, the power of the seal weakened. As the golden ripples swept across it, accompanied by a rumbling sound, cracks appeared clearly in the void, from which strange aquatic creatures emerged.

Originally, a bell was placed above to reinforce the seal.

Each of these cracks that appear is immediately repaired, their existence and demise are unpredictable, and they can at least sustain the system for a considerable period of time. However, this time the Wave Bell was shaken, which caused the cracks to appear and could no longer be repaired.

It's like a delicate and beautiful porcelain vase developing cracks.

Zhou Yan saw these cracks appear in all directions of Langzhong City, and monsters flew out from them, attacking in all directions. Everywhere he looked, there were these demons baring their fangs and claws.

At this point, even if he could be in two places at once, he wouldn't be able to take care of the overall situation.

Moreover, there is the crisis of cracks opening up one after another.

It could be said that they were beset by internal and external troubles. Faced with such a crisis, the Golden Heavenly King not only did not back down at all, but instead laughed loudly: "Good, good, good! It really is here, this is indeed the place where the treasure is!"

He glanced sideways and saw the cracks burst open on all sides, with layers of surging waves carrying countless aquatic monsters that were falling towards this place, breaking down houses, tearing open roads, and brandishing weapons to kill the people.

Jin Tianwang was not at all disturbed; on the contrary, he was thinking:

“Although Zhou Yan is strong, he is still a so-called human. He will be distracted by protecting the weak and will be bound by the weakness and his own weakness. Good, good, good. These monsters attacking humans will only divert the Taoist’s attention.”

"Hmph, this has bought me some time!"

"Absolutely wonderful!"

"The strong remain strong, the weak remain weak; tigers devour sheep, sheep eat grass and trees; the cycle of life is nothing more than this..."

However, out of the corner of his eye, Jin Tianwang saw two aquatic creatures attacking the human race, smashing up a house, and watching a girl of about ten years old spread her arms, trying to shield her sleeping parents. At that moment, the face of Wang Wan'er in Tengwang Pavilion flashed in his eyes.

King Jin paused for a moment.

A golden light shot out, transforming into hundreds of strands of Geng metal baleful energy, annihilating all the aquatic creatures. After a moment's thought and the attack, he frowned and coldly said, "...After all, it's still a demon beast's body, so it's still somewhat useful!"

"Hmph, utterly weak! Get out of here and go to the place that Taoist priest set up!"

He felt inexplicably irritated.

With renewed vigor, Zhou Yan unleashed his full power upon the sleeping Wave Bell. He raised his hand, condensing the Qi of the character "镇" (zhen, meaning to suppress) on his right arm, and pressed it down into the crack in the sky, forcefully sealing the fissure.

Zhou Yan had fought a series of fierce battles and had also opened up a small prototype of his spiritual world, which meant that he had suffered a huge loss of vital energy.

But now that he was standing on the ground, it was as if he had received a tremendous boost.

With each breath, his magical power rapidly recovered. The purest magical power flowed and changed throughout his limbs and meridians. Although the fatigue from the battle still lingered, his strength had already recovered to about 70-80%.

Terrifying battery life.

Seeing countless ferocious beasts fly out, he was moved. He reached back to his waist with his left hand and grabbed the scroll. He activated the "Destroying Heaven and Earth Technique of War and Destruction". In an instant, he consumed 70% of the magic power he had just recovered.

Then he tossed the "Butterfly and Vine" painting into the air.

The second level of the "Destroying All Businesses and Devouring Heaven Technique" unleashed its innate divine power.

The true essence of the warlord flowed and changed, creating dozens or even hundreds of "Tengdie Pictures" in the air. They all unfolded at the same time, and golden butterflies flew out from them, tearing and intercepting the aquatic creatures like thunder.

The second level of the War Master's innate divine power: Condensing Qi into Soldiers.

Although it cannot be compared with the original form of magical treasures and divine weapons, it is still an extremely ingenious way of using them. In an instant, the long night was enveloped by thousands of golden streams of light on one side, while butterflies fluttered like thunder on the other side.

Zhou Yan was overwhelmed with other matters, and Jin Tianwang, for some reason, was in a fit of rage, disregarding everything else and only focused on seizing the treasure. There were still two areas unguarded, and Zhou Yan kept a close eye on them, knowing that at least 100,000 people lived there. However, he saw that aquatic creatures were already surging over there.

A sharp, boundless sound of air being torn apart exploded out.

A streak of blood-red light swept across the night, rushing to the forefront. A giant man, three zhang tall, clad in full armor, with arms like iron pincers, suddenly froze, his body shattering into pieces in mid-air. The man, wearing a full set of mountain-patterned armor and holding a war bow, stood on the high ground.

Shen Cangming!
He made a simple gesture to Zhou Yan.

I am here.

Zhou Yan immediately felt relieved.

The water surged, and a deep, majestic dragon's roar echoed. Golden light transformed into dragon scales, and the true form of a hundred-zhang-tall azure dragon appeared in Langzhong. On the other side, accompanied by a majestic roar, a blue lion appeared, also a hundred zhang tall, its body radiating Buddhist light, raising its head and roaring.

Three powerful beams of light, representing top-tier combat power in the human realm, surged toward the heavens.

One spot was cyan, another was deep blue, and yet another was pure, unadulterated crimson.

Its clear, diffused light reflected in all directions subdued all the aquatic creatures.

Many aquatic creatures are only at the level of the lower three ranks of Xuan Officials.

Facing the dragon that controls the water veins and the lion cat that controls the Azure Glazed Lion Fire, Zhou Yan was completely suppressed. They revealed their true forms, each possessing the strength of a fifth-rank cultivator. Zhou Yan shattered the formation that Li Yuanying had set up in the Tengwang Pavilion Dharma Realm.

While ordinary people cannot awaken from their dreams, this is not a problem for Ao Xuantao and his companions. Ao Xuantao roared, his voice echoing in all directions, and said:

"My lord, leave this to us!"

The white jade lion cat transformed into the true form of a blue lion, its fangs bared, and flames from the blue, cloud-like glazed Buddhist kingdom spread out, enveloping the aquatic creatures with a single breath, instantly turning them into glazed forms.

Buddhist supernatural power: Telepathy!
The white jade lion cat raised its head and roared.

It was no longer the initial meow, but a vibration like thunder, majestic and solemn, possessing masculine energy and Buddhist charm.

The Thunderous Lion's Roar of Buddhism!
Using his extensive telepathic abilities, Zhou Yan conveyed the fear and joy in everyone's hearts to them, urging them to gather around. With them guarding the rear, Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief. He then raised his hand and channeled his divine power to temporarily seal the rift in the air. Kai Ming couldn't help but marvel at this.

"...Not to mention that the water god Gonggong expanded the width of your meridians with his water element, and you also used the blood of the Bashe lord Qingyuanjun to stabilize your meridians, Chiyou's 'War-Destroying Myriad Industries Devouring Heaven Technique' is also quite remarkable."

"Not only can it refine the spirit when facing powerful enemies, but it can also use battle to sustain itself and temper the body; it is also good at long battles and prolonged battles. The fact that it can recover its fighting strength so quickly is a top-notch fighting method even in the ancient times."

Zhou Yan's "The Art of Destroying Heaven and Destroying All Industries" has reached the second level of its battle spirit after a fierce battle with Gonggong, the water god from the ancient times. His battle spirit remains undiminished and his combat power can still be maintained.

With Shen Cangming and others appearing to help stabilize the rear, they felt at ease, and their fighting spirit flared up. They looked at the Golden Heavenly King, who was killing the aquatic creatures while still determined to seize the Bronze Wave Bell.

Without further hesitation, he used his supernatural powers and vanished in an instant.

Jin Tianwang also saw Zhou Yan and felt anxious. He activated his Dharma Body, and wisps of Gengjin evil energy transformed into a huge divine general. This time, he gathered all his strength and a thousand years of cultivation and slammed it hard into the huge bronze bell.

It seems that the metal energy injected by the Golden Heavenly King was already sufficient.

Suddenly, ripples appeared on the bronze wave clock.

Zhou Yan had also arrived. Without hesitation, he originally intended to use the [Doushuai Palace] directly. However, seeing that the Golden Heavenly King had actually intervened to save the people, Zhou Yan had a change of heart and did not use this killing move. Instead, he circulated his vast magical power.

It hit me right on the head!

Without hesitation, Jin Tianwang unleashed a powerful attack on Zhou Yan, using the move "Mount Hua Stands Alone."

The two men collided with their palms.

An immense and boundless power flowed.

Zhou Yan felt a golden aura hurtling towards him, while Jin Tianwang felt his energy being restrained. Zhou Yan felt powerful and vigorous, while Jin Tianwang was shaken.

Zhou Yan's combat strength is completely unaffected?!
What is the method for a protracted war?!
Zhou Yan said, "Golden Heavenly King, let go!"

"Can't you see that if the Wave Bell is activated again, the seal will be broken, and Gonggong's family will rush into the human world, and Langzhong will probably be destroyed?"

The Golden King sneered, "Destroy it if you want, what does it have to do with me?!"

Zhou Yan and Jin Tianwang exchanged another move. Zhou Yan seized the latter's arm, his five fingers spread, each circulating the five elements of Qi. Using a half-step [Doushuai Palace] technique, he directly gripped Jin Tianwang's right arm, instantly preventing the flow of magical power in that arm. He said:

"Oh? If that's the case, why did you save them?"

As if his irritation had been touched, the Golden King said coldly:

"Taoist priest, I think you're here to steal my treasure!"

After that, he ignored Zhou Yan and only engaged in combat with him.

Zhou Yan wanted Jin Tianwang to leave the Wave Bell and not to disturb the seal again, while Jin Tianwang was determined that this Taoist priest had come here to steal the magic treasure. The two could not communicate at all, and their moves scattered, shattering the surrounding aquatic creatures.

Suddenly, Zhou Yan mobilized the power of [Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun].

With the blessing of humanity, this body gradually began to suppress the Golden Heavenly King.

Jin Tianwang was not to be outdone. After fighting for thirty or fifty rounds, the two suddenly shifted their positions and each struck the huge bronze wave bell with their palms. Zhou Yan's human destiny and Jin Tianwang's pure Geng metal energy seemed to be drawn in and surged into this ancient treasure.

Jin Tianwang's expression changed slightly: "?! Zhou Yan, what are you doing!"

"You want to use my power to seize the treasure?!"

Zhou Yan tried to pull, but couldn't move his hand away. He felt his own humanistic energy being drastically drained away. Hearing this, he said irritably:

"That's fine then!"

It took Zhou Yan and Jin Tianwang three to five breaths before they were able to remove their hands.

Both of them had their energy greatly depleted.

They all dodged aside and looked at the enormous wave-shaped bell suspended beneath the bright moon.

"This is... a treasure that has been revived!"

Jin Tianwang quickly made a judgment, his gloomy eyes lighting up. Holding the ancient sword he had snatched, he said, "...That's it! It's a treasure personally forged by King Yu, and it belongs to the metal element, so it requires the convergence of human fortune and Geng metal fortune to open!"

"...Hey, it's because Nu Jiao and King Yu worked together to create it back then, so this is the only way to unseal it?!"

But then, the divine weapon and treasure from which the name Langzhong originated changed.

The ancient patterns on it flowed like living things, then cracks appeared, and then the bronze traces on it gradually collapsed and dissipated, revealing a pure gold color!

Pure and vast, the unparalleled human fortune surged like a pillar of light.

It suddenly dispersed!
The cracks that had been appearing one after another were instantly smoothed out by the power of that moment. Kaiming's eyes widened, and he suddenly shouted, "Zhou Yan, be careful! This [Bell] has been activated! The divine weapon has dissipated, and its power has suppressed the seal here!"

Zhou Yan crossed his arms to block the escaping waves. The power emanating from those waves not only calmed the seal on the entire space, but also caused ripples to spread throughout the world. Zhou Yan felt an itch on his sleeves.

Inside his sleeve, the sleeping three-legged golden crow suddenly awoke, wanting to fly out and plunge into that enormous wave bell!

The location of the Huaxu Dream, the highest source of the Yanhuang bloodline and divine lineage.

The reflection of the fairyland.

The seal that suppresses the colossal turtle that supports the sky!

What suppressed these three layers was actually just an ancient giant bell.

Zhou Yan's heart surged with emotion, and he shouted:

"What exactly is this thing?!"

"What could possibly possess such power during the time of King Yu?!"

"What can sustain the dream of Huaxu? What can sustain Mount Buzhou? What can maintain the Dharma realm of the Tengwang Pavilion?"

Kaiming hesitated for a moment before replying, "Because this thing wasn't forged by Yu at all. He simply obtained it to suppress Langzhong and this place. Even Langyuan Wonderland exists to suppress this place."

"The Dream of Huaxu is here, which already makes the second layer of spiritual time extremely close. Moreover, there is also the existence of the Primordial Dragon Turtle. Ordinary treasures simply cannot suppress this place."

"so……"

Suddenly realizing something, the Golden Heavenly King instantly retrieved the corresponding treasure from his memory and said:

"In the primordial era, there was a bell in the Great Wilderness, where there was a mountain called 'Uncouth,' where the Rong River ended. There lived a man with three bodies, named Di Jun, who is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas as the ancient Heavenly Emperor?!"

"This is Emperor Jun's treasure?! Hahaha, it's mine now!"

The giant bell exploded, creating ripples.

The brilliant, newly cast golden light turned and crashed in another direction, as if guiding something, landing on a mountain twenty miles away, where a palace was located.

The surging light rose up and transformed into a phantom image on the palace.

It faintly resonates with the enormous 'wave bell' of this place!
