Devouring The Heavens

Chapter 264 The Eastern Dynasty



Chapter 264: The Eastern Dynasty



Youxue flew through the skies, turning into a dragon, breaking the clouds as he moved rapidly. Xuanyuan and the pig were on the dragon. They were attacked by a strong wind, but they remained unmoved. Xuanyuan’s long hair flowed behind him


Xuanyuan didn’t want the Yin family to help him, but if they really wanted to, they should at least be sincere. Although Yin Tuxian, Yin Zhenluo, and Yin Qianxun would help him unconditionally, what about the others?


If they had known Xuanyuan’s situation, they would eventually think it would be better if he died. At the beginning, they would definitely try their best. But as time would pass, they would tire of him, and start to despise him. To avoid being treated with disdain, it would be best for him to go away tactfully. To rely on oneself is better than to rely on others.


“Hey, boy, Why don’t you stay with the Yin family for now? It is obvious that since you saved Yin Tuxian, Zhenluo’s feelings for you have changed. Maybe you even moved her? I believe that as long as you say you want to marry her, she would accept!” The pig laughed strangely beside him.


“Why? Because I “moved” her? Come now, I don’t even know if I can refine the Heart-Devouring Bug. Do you think I’m a fool? How can I not understand how my beautiful master feels? But maybe, as the Nightmare Ghost said, I will die in a few years, so staying here would only add to her guilt and sadness. It’s better that we leave immediately. I’ll keep going, and believe in my own strength. That way, maybe I have a chance to live without making anyone sad.” Xuanyuan’s voice was very gentle. He had accepted the fact that he may only have a few years left to live. In the beginning, Xuanyuan couldn’t calm down. He didn’t want to die. He was determined to be a great emperor.


But life is unpredictable; what happens is not up to mere humans at all. How can anyone control what happens in the future? After he figured this out, Xuanyuan’s mind immediately calmed down. Instead of complaining, it would be better for him to work hard and fight desperately. At least he wouldn’t die without putting up a fight.


“Ha ha! Good point.” The voice of Greed resounded inside Xuanyuan’s head, “It seems that you have grown up a lot after experiencing this event. You finally recognise that you can only trust in yourself, and that you yourself are the most important person. Don’t worry, you are the successor of the Devouring Emperor. Even if you fight to death, we won’t let you fall. You represent the future and the legacy of the Devouring Emperor. Do you understand that the legacy of the Body of All Creations needs to be continued by you?”


“No, I want to rely on my own strength to break away from the fate that others say cannot be broken.” Xuanyuan shook his head. His determination was firm. Only strength was real. Only with faith in himself could he destroy his fate.


“Well, aren’t you ambitious! Where are you going to go now?” The pig said with a smile.


“I’ll go back to the Fighting Dragon City to see Youniang first. I didn’t expect Youniang to do so much for me without even hinting it to me. Even if I didn’t know of it before, now that I have learnt of what she has done, I must visit her to pay her my thanks. Otherwise it would be inappropriate.” Xuanyuan thought of what the elders of the Yin family said, and also of Bai Youniang’s great determination that day. He knew of the existence of the Vajrapani Earth only thanks to the efforts of Bai Youniang.


“Ha ha, your imminent death really has made you kinder! Then go back to the Fighting Dragon City!” The pig grinned.


“Useless pig, do you want to die?” Xuanyuan rolled his eyes. That was not the only reason behind his visit to the Fighting Dragon city. Xuanyuan pointed at the armor he was using.


“Now I’m about to enter the Emperor realm. I need to prepare for it, anything that I may need, I must purchase. Furthermore, my armour has also been damaged. I need to purchase elixirs, talismans and other things, alongside a new set of armour.”


“Hey, hey! That’s right, boy. You still have many pue energy stones with you. What do you keep them for? Hand them all over. Let me break through to the Xian realm, and then I can find the whereabouts of my other souls. Maybe I could even help you get rid of the Heart Devouring Bug.” The pig started to salivate, thinking about the pure energy source in Xuanyuan’s ring.


Xuanyuan rolled his eyes and sneered.


“Even though I won’t be using it now, I don’t want to give it to you. What are you going to do about it?”


“Whoof!” The pig was angry, “Boy, do you want me to help you? You don’t have much time left. Do you want to waste your time on the road? One hundred thousand jins of your pure energy source; give it to me, and I’ll transport you to the Fighting Dragon City in an instant.”


Xuanyuan thought about it carefully, nodded and said, “Well, you win.”


Xuanyuan immediately threw out 100,000 Jin of pure energy source, dropping his reserves of 1.27 million jins of energy down to 1.17 million jins.


The pig was like a black hole, swallowing up a hundred thousand jins of pure energy source in an instant. Seeing this, Xuanyuan’s heart broke.


The pig was a bottomless hole.


“Boy, what are you going to do with that girl, Qian Doudou?” the pig asked suddenly.


“What can I do? I just met Qian Doudou by chance. She’s gone. It’s not like I can go all over the world to get her back. We don’t know each other that well.” Xuanyuan said in a flat voice.


“You are really stupid. Clearly she is infatuated with you. More importantly, she’s extremely wealthy. Do you remember what technique she cultivates? Do you even understand the significance of that? If you go along with her, it’s very likely that all the treasures of the heavens and the earth are easily accessible to you. You may even find the flower that can get rid of the Heart-Devouring Bug.” The pig finally reached his breaking point. It turned out that he had been thinking about Qian Doudou’s Fighting Gold and Fighting Earth.


“Even if she can’t find the remaining pieces of my soul, she can buy countless pure energy sources for me to devour and absorb.”


Xuanyuan wanted to beat the pig’s smug face in.


“How can you be so shameless? I knew it, you left a seal of some sort on Qian Duoduo, right? I should have known, in case you ever needed to find her , you could do so at any time.” Xuanyuan looked scornfully at the pig.


“Hey hey, you’re really smart. You guessed it. Qian Duoduo has tons of treasure. How could I not leave a mark on her? I have a feeling she will have a strange fate, although I am not quite sure. Seriously, take her with you, boy. With her, your chance of surviving will increase drastically.”


The pig seemed unwilling to give up. Xuanyuan raised his knife-shaped eyebrow and sweared, “Fuck! I’ll chop you to death if you speak more on the subject. Let’s hurry back to the Fighting Dragon City.”


The pig scolded the Xuanyuan in his heart, “This kid is a fool. He doesn’t use Qian Doudou, an endless pool of wealth. What a waste…”


“Maybe that’s just how his personality is. Qian Doudou is straightforward but a bit naive. Regardless, Xuanyuan will never take advantage of her, it’s just his personal conviction.” sighed Greed.


“Hmph!” Not saying anything in response, the pig started shining. Marks appeared all the way over his body, and a golden portal appeared, connecting them directly to the Fighting Dragons Sect.


As soon as they left, a gate decorated with golden lotuses appeared. Out of it stepped two people; an old man with white hair and a beard, clad in the Dragon Robe of eight kings, and a man wearing silver armor.


He exuded great authority and power, and the medallion on his waist signified his allegiance and status in the Easter Dynasty.


“Eighth uncle, is that man Xuanyuan?” asked the man in silver armor?


“Yes. If that boy grows to be an adult, he may rival even your strength. What’s the matter? Do you want to fight with him?” The old man smiled slowly.


“Yes.I really want to test myself against his skills. However, I will wait for him to break through, and then we shall have our battle!” The man’s voice was calm, but full of pride. He would not allow himself to bully others. The man who just spoke was the crown prince of the Eastern Dynasty.


“Good. The pig with him is not so simple either. It seems that he has deep knowledge of the forbidden arts. I can only sense a small amount of his true power. That right there is a gate directly connected to the Fighting Dragon City.” The old man frowned, obviously surprised that there were still practitioners who could utilise such high level skills.


“It doesn’t matter. There will be a day when I will fight with him. However, if he can’t beat Jiang Yitian, he cannot possibly be qualified to beat me. Let’s go, Eighth Uncle,” the man in the silver armor said. He disappeared in a flash. The older man also disappeared with him.


A golden door, lit up with markings, appeared in the skies of the Fighting Dragon City, right above Taibai Trading. The appearance of a dragon shocked countless people. It was even more surprising to see a person standing on this dragon.


“Who dares do something like this, right in front of the Taibai Trading Center?!” someone yelled in the crowd.


“It’s him!” someone said excitedly.


“Who?”


“You don’t know him? That is Xuanyuan. They say he rides on an emperor class dragon, and is accompanied by a pig. It must be him, I recognise him from a few years ago. It appears that he has grown even stronger!”


“Here comes Xuanyuan!” The news of his return spread quickly.


In the sky, Youxue turned into a swimming dragon, breaking through the clouds as he travelled at a fast speed. Xuanyuan and the pig were on the dragon. They were attacked by a strong wind, but they remained unmoved. Xuanyuan’s long hair flowed behind him.


Just like how when people drink, they know whether the water is cold or warm.


Xuanyuan didn’t want the Yin family to help him, but if they really wanted to, they should at least be sincere. Although Yin Tuxian, Yin Zhenluo, and Yin Qianxun would help him unconditionally, what about the others?


If they had known Xuanyuan’s situation, they would naturally think that he must die. At the beginning, they would take it for granted. But in the long run, they would naturally feel that Xuanyuan was a burden. They would tire of him, and start to despise him. To avoid being treated with disdain, it would be best for him to go away tactfully. To rely on oneself is better than to rely on others.


“Hey, boy, Why don’t you stay with the Yin family this time? It is obvious that since you saved Yin Tuxian, Zhenluo’s feelings for you have changed. Did you move her? I believe that as long as you say you want to marry her, she would accept!” The pig laughed strangely beside him.


“Why? Because I “moved” her? Come on, I don’t even know if I can refine the Heart Devouring Bug. Do you think I’m a fool? How can I not understand how my beautiful master feels? But maybe, as the Nightmare Ghost said, I will die in a few years, so staying here will only increase her sadness and guilt. It’s better that we leave at this moment. I’ll keep going, and believe in myself. This way, maybe I have a chance to live without making anyone sad.” Xuanyuan’s voice was very gentle. He knew that he only had a few years left to live. At the very beginning, Xuanyuan couldn’t calm down. He didn’t want to die. He was determined to be a great emperor.


But life is unpredictable; what happens is not up to mere humans at all. How can anything be satisfactory? After he figured this out, Xuanyuan’s mind immediately calmed down. Instead of complaining, it would be better for him to work hard and fight desperately. At least his death can make the Heart Devouring Bug live happily.


“Ha ha! Good point.” The voice of Greed sounded from Xuanyuan’s heart.: “It seems that you have grown up a lot after experiencing this event. You finally feel that only believing in yourself is true, and that you yourself are the most important person. Don’t worry, you are the successor of the Devouring Emperor. Even if you fight to death, we won’t let you fall, because what you represent is the transmission of the Devouring Emperor’s powers. Do you understand that the legacy of the Body of All Creations needs to be continued by you?”


“No, I want to rely on my own strength to break away from the fate that others say cannot be broken.” Xuanyuan shook his head. His determination was firm. Only strength was real. Only with a faith in himself can he accomplish all this.


“Well, aren’t you ambitious! Where are you going to go now?” The pig said with a smile.


“I’ll go back to the Fighting Dragon City to see Youniang first. I didn’t expect Youniang to pay so much for me in silence. But I didn’t know anything about it, and I never went to visit her. It’s inappropriate.” Xuanyuan thought of what the elders of the Yin family said, and also of Bai Youniang’s great determination that day. He knew there was Fighting Earth in the Nightmare Daze.


“Ha ha, your limited lifespan really has made you kinder! Then go back to the Fighting Dragon City!” The pig grinned.


“Dead pig, do you want to die?” Xuanyuan showed the whites of his eyes. How could his mind be full of all these things? Xuanyuan pointed at the armor on his body.


“Now I’m about to enter the realm of imperial fighter. It’s only a step away. The armor has also been damaged. Talismans, as well as other things that suit me, are also needed. And as for the elixir; it’s always good to be prepared.”


“Hey, hey! That’s right, boy. There are so many pure energy sources in you. What do you keep them for? Hand them all over. Let me break through the realm of xian class fighters, and then I can find the whereabouts of the other eight parts. Maybe I can help you solve the problem of the Heart Devouring Bug.” The pig started to salivate., He was still thinking about the pure energy source in Xuanyuan’s ring.


Xuanyuan showed the whites of eyes and sneered.


“I just want to keep it. I won’t give it to you, so what can you do about it?”


“Whoof!” The pig was angry: “Boy, do you want me to help you? You don’t have much time left. Do you want to waste your time on the road? One hundred thousand jins of your pure energy source; give it to me, and I’ll transport you to the Fighting Dragon City in an instant. “


Xuanyuan thought about it carefully, nodded and said:


“Well, you win.”


Xuanyuan immediately threw out 100000 Jin of pure energy source, and his 1.27 million jins became 1.17 million jins.


The pig swallowed up a hundred thousand jins of the pure energy source like a stone in the sea, not stirring big waves, so there was nearly no response. This broke Xuanyuan’s heart.


The pig was a bottomless hole.


“Boy, what are you going to do with the girl Qian Duoduo?” the pig asked suddenly.


“What can I do? I just met Qian Duoduo by chance. She’s gone. It’s not like I can go all over the world to get her back. We’re not family,.” Xuanyuan said in a flat voice.


“You are so ungrateful. The girl likes you very much. More importantly, she is very rich. She has endless wealth. Do you know what she has cultivated? Do you know what it means to have the Treasure Gathering Earth and the Xian Method of Gathering Gold? Take her with you, and it’s possible that you can find amazing treasures in heaven and earth. Maybe you can even find the insecticidal flower that can restrain the Heart Devouring Bug.” The pig finally reached his breaking point. It turned out that he had been thinking about Qian Duoduo’s Fighting Gold and Fighting Earth.


“To say the least, even if she can’t find the deity, then at least she has money. She can buy countless pure energy sources for me to devour and absorb.”


Xuanyuan wanted to beat the pig’s smug face.


“How could you be so shameless? You think too much. Hurry up, and don’t tell me what brand you left on Qian Duoduo. If you want to find her, then you can come to her at any time.” Xuanyuan looked scornfully at the pig.


“Hey hey, you’re really smart. You guessed it. Qian Duoduo has tons of treasure. How could I not leave a mark on her? I have a feeling she will have a strange fate, although I am not quite sure. Seriously, take more money with you, boy. With her, your chance of surviving will increase a lot.”


The pig seemed unwilling to give up. Xuanyuan raised his knife-shaped eyebrow and sweared:


“Fuck! Damn it, I’ll chop you to death if you talk any more. Let’s hurry back to the Fighting Dragon City.”


The pig almost cried out mournfully. He scolded the boy in his heart:


“This kid is a fool. He doesn’t use Qian Duoduo, who could be such a good resource. It would be better to make use of her. This is such a big loss.”


“Maybe Xuanyuan’s personality is just like this. Qian Duoduo is straight forward, but a bit willful. But how can Xuanyuan make use of Qian Duoduo? That’s not Xuanyuan’s way.” The Greed sighed.


“Whoof!” roared the pig. Many markings ran from his body. Light shone all throughout the sky, and a golden gate was draped over them, which was directly connected to theto the the Fighting Dragons Sect.


After Xuanyuan and his party left, many golden lotuses floated in the sky. ?Emperor Dragons that made of air flying around with loud cries..


An old man with white hair and a beard, clad in a Dragon Robe of eight kings, appeared, along with a man wearing silver armor.


The light shined on the man’s head, almost as if he could use the power of the Land of the East.


He was invincible.


“Eight Emperor uncle, is that Xuanyuan?” asked the man in silver armor?


“Yes. If this boy grows to be an adult, he may rival even your strength. What’s the matter? Do you want to fight with him?” The old man smiled slowly.


“Yes. Considering my strength, I really want to fight with him. I will wait for him to break through, and then we shall have our battle!” The man’s voice was calm, but prideful. He would not allow himself to bully others. This man was the crown prince of the Land of the East: a member of the Eastern Dynasty.


“Good. That pig with him is not so simple either. It seems that he has profound knowledge of the forbidden art. I can only see a small part of the prohibitions he just put out. That right there is the prohibition connected to the Fighting Dragon City.” The old man frowned, obviously surprised that there were still strong prohibitions now.


“It doesn’t matter. There will be a day when I will fight with him. If he doesn’t win against Jiang Yitian, he will not be qualified to fight with me. Let’s go, Eight Emperor uncle,” the man in the silver armor said. He disappeared in a flash.


The old man hissed, and then left.


A golden door, interwoven with lights and markings, appeared in the sky of the Fighting Dragon City and Taibai Trading. The breath of a royal dragon shocked countless people. It was even more surprising to see a person standing on this dragon.


“Who are you to pull something like that off with such momentum? You even rode the dragon in the realm of the emperor class fighter!”


“It’s him!” someone said excitedly.


“Who is it?”


“You don’t know him? He is Xuanyuan. He rides on the dragon in the realm of emperor class fighter, and is accompanied by a pig. It must be him, for I’ve seen Xuanyuan myself a few years ago. I still recognize him. It seems that he has become stronger!”


“Here comes Xuanyuan!” The news of his return spread quickly.
