Leveling Up And Becoming Undefeatable

Chapter 1340: Really?

Chiyou is the Ancient King?!

Wasn’t he the strongest expert of the Guardian Race?

Could he have imprisoned himself in a place like this?

Just as Luo Tian’s voice faded, the man in black armor atop the mountain of skulls, radiating demonic flames, faintly tried to open his eyes. It seemed like he had been in a deep slumber for tens of thousands of years. He then slowly opened them fully, and the corners of his mouth curled into a faint smile. “You truly did not disappoint me!”  

“Ommm~!”

His voice was like thunder exploding in the pitch-black space.

Light radiated in all directions, and the surrounding darkness vanished instantly. The entire space became clear! The light sources were actually the two eyes of the demonic beast Chiyou!

Luo Tian had only been guessing.

Based on the aura radiating from the Demon God Chiyou and a gut feeling, his previous words were merely a test.

He hadn’t expected it to be exactly as he guessed.

The demonic beast Chiyou was indeed the Ancient King!

At this moment, an ominous premonition rose in Luo Tian’s heart. He couldn’t quite describe the sensation, but it was a bad feeling. Keeping his expression neutral, he stepped forward slightly and said with a lowered posture, “A disciple naturally follows his master’s instructions. To rescue you, I have exhausted all my efforts and nearly died several times.”

He still could not figure out what the Ancient King truly wanted.

Why would he imprison himself here?

Was it because of the Seven-Colored Divine Stone?

Or something else?

A secret tens of thousands of years old was perhaps about to be revealed!

The Ancient King’s brow twitched before he said, “Everything about you has been under my observation. Before you met me, I would not let you die. Even if a god wanted to kill you, I would have stopped them.”

He did not sound like he was joking in the slightest.

From his tone, Luo Tian could sense the Ancient King’s power. He didn’t seem to care about the experts from the Realm of Gods.

Could it be true that what the Saintess said was true: he was someone who had crossed the Heavenly Tribulation, condensed a divinity, and possessed eternal life?

If that were the case, why was he here?

Luo Tian said softly, “Thank you for looking after me, Master. I was wondering why I was so lucky. It turns out I had your protection. Master, I want to know: since you are so powerful, why don’t you leave this place?”

“With your strength and cultivation, how could a mere Pangu’s Cave possibly hold you?”

This was what Luo Tian wanted to know most.

The Ancient King was definitely hiding some massive secret!

The Ancient King looked at Luo Tian and said, “Look above my head.”

Luo Tian looked up and observed a stone the size of a fist hovering above the man’s head. The stone looked like an ordinary piece of rock. It was releasing no aura whatsoever, making it seem like a useless rock.

But from the moment Luo Tian and the others appeared until the Ancient King woke up, the man had not moved a single inch.

Could it be…

Luo Tian then asked softly, “Could this be the legendary Seven-Colored Divine Stone?”

The Ancient King replied, “Precisely. It is Nuwa’s Sky Mending Stone!”

“Back then, the experts of the five continents united to suppress me. Even experts from the Realm of Gods entered the Ancient World, all for the sake of this Seven-Colored Divine Stone. It contains the power of creation, a power that even the high and mighty gods of the Realm of Gods feared.”

“They slaughtered without restraint.”

“My clansmen and my family were all killed by them.”

“I awakened the demonic nature within my body and transformed into a demon, taking the form of the ancient demonic beast Chiyou. I crossed the Heavenly Tribulation and condensed a divinity. I fled to these Pangu Mountains intending to refine the Seven-Colored Divine Stone and absorb the power of creation within. But they came here too!”

“I had just passed my tribulation, and my body was extremely weak. Alone, I was no match for them. In the end, I took the form of the Demon God Chiyou and released the Seven-Colored Divine Stone, using it to suppress my own demonic nature. Once the demonic nature was withdrawn, no one could find me. A wisp of my aura entered a demonic beast and tore through the void to enter the plane you came from, the Tianxuan Continent. This is where I took up residence in that daoist. After waiting for tens of thousands of years, I have finally waited long enough for you!”

“When he turned into a demon, I used that aura to lead you into Pangu’s Cave.”

“I let you familiarize yourself with everything inside because I knew you would definitely come here. You definitely would!” the Ancient King said unhurriedly, his eyes flashing with an irrepressible excitement and a hint of endless killing intent.

“Luo Tian!”

“You want the Soul Poison antidote? I can give it to you.”

“You want to trample the Hai family of Misty Cloud City under your feet? I can make that happen.”

“You want to beat the Crown Prince of the Hai family until he’s crawling on the ground looking for his teeth? I can make that happen.”

“Heaven’s Chosen Mountain, the awakening of the Four Divine Beasts bloodlines, even the Ancient Tree within your body, I can help you with all of it. I can make you the strongest person in this era in the shortest amount of time. Those trash in the Honorable Emperor realm will be nothing more than garbage before you!” The Ancient King’s speech quickened.

He could truly achieve all of this.

How could someone in the Ancient World who possesses a divinity be unable to achieve this?!

However, the more he was given, the more afraid Luo Tian felt in his heart.

Indeed, he wanted these things. One could say he wanted them even in his dreams.

It wasn’t just the antidote for the Soul Poison!

But an ominous premonition in his heart grew stronger. He looked at the Ancient King and asked, “Master, what do you need me to do?”

Luo Tian sounded incredibly sincere and looked excited!

Everything he had now was being controlled by the Ancient King.

The only thing he could do now was act!

The Ancient King did not suspect Luo Tian and replied, “Take the Seven-Colored Divine Stone from above my head and give it to me! It is that simple!”

“Then, I will fulfill everything I just promised. You will never have to suffer anyone’s bullying again. Once I refine the power of creation within the Seven-Colored Divine Stone, I will leave the Ancient World and enter the Realm of Gods to seek revenge on those people from back then. You will be the new Ancient King!”

The Ancient King didn’t even blink as he spoke those words.

Usually, this is how most liars behave.

Luo Tian walked forward step by step, looking up at the Seven-Colored Divine Stone hovering in mid-air. He asked doubtfully, “Master, have you found a way to cultivate the power of creation within the Seven-Colored Divine Stone? Also, you were the one who released the stone yourself, so how can it still control you?”

He wanted to know the Ancient King’s weakness!

He had to look out for himself.

It wasn’t that Luo Tian did not trust the Ancient King, but that he had to consider his own interests.

Since the Seven-Colored Divine Stone contained power that even experts of the Realm of Gods feared, why not take it for his own cultivation?

The Ancient King replied, “Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the Seven-Colored Divine Stone has absorbed a massive amount of heaven and earth yuan energy from the Pangu Mountains. Compared to tens of thousands of years ago, the power within it is even more profound. This is exactly why I needed you to come.”

“If it isn’t removed, I cannot move.”

“I can only remain sealed here.”

Luo Tian stopped and looked at the Ancient King seriously with a shocked expression, “Really?”
