Chapter 590 The Human Race Today
"What? You can't bear to part with it?"
Chu Yang raised an eyebrow, his tone rather cold: "Then stay here. Maybe one day I'll be in a better mood and let you out... or maybe one day I'll stew you and that long-eared rabbit together."
Dongwanggong felt a chill run down his spine, and his gaze involuntarily drifted to the distance, where Chang'er Dingguangxian was being chased around by several conjured vicious dogs, looking utterly disheveled.
At this moment, Dingguangxian was forced to reveal his true form and kept fleeing, looking extremely disheveled!
A chill emanated from Chu Yang, which Dong Wanggong instantly sensed. He took a deep breath and quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
Where there is life, there is hope.
Losing money to avoid disaster is better than losing your life.
He secretly gathered his magical power and tentatively launched an attack at Chu Yang's avatar.
However, this attack was like throwing a stone into the sea, having no effect whatsoever.
That Dharma body is ethereal and elusive, and its physical form cannot be grasped at all.
This seemed extremely strange to the Eastern King.
"Oh no, this is no ordinary demon race, not a Great Luo Golden Immortal. It's no exaggeration to call it a Quasi-Saint!" Dong Wanggong lamented inwardly.
If the Eastern King Duke were to calm down at this moment and carefully observe Chu Yang's avatar with his divine eye, he would be able to discern the truth.
But his attention was focused on Chu Yang's expression and words. He saw a chilling killing intent in Chu Yang's eyes, as if he didn't take him seriously at all.
Actually, this was all because Chu Yang's acting was so good that Dong Wanggong had no doubt about the authenticity of what he was seeing!
"Alright! I promise you!" After thinking for a while, Dongwanggong gritted his teeth, endured the pain, took out a piece of purple bamboo from his bosom, and reluctantly threw it to Chu Yang.
"This is the Purple Jade Spirit Bamboo, which has the effect of accelerating time. It can be considered a good high-grade innate spiritual treasure."
This purple jade bamboo was a gift from the Queen Mother of the West.
The Kunlun Mirror of the Queen Mother of the West is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure containing the laws of time. When she obtained the Kunlun Mirror, there was a purple jade bamboo next to it. This section was taken from that bamboo.
The Queen Mother of the West and the King Father of the East were appointed by Hongjun Daozu as the heads of male and female immortals, and the two were quite close.
This treasure was indeed a rare find for the Eastern King Duke, who had not yet attained sainthood.
However, now that the Eastern King Duke has reached the Quasi-Saint level, the effects of the Purple Jade Spirit Bamboo are somewhat insufficient for him.
The main problem is that this treasure isn't for combat; its slight time acceleration effect is already of little use to Dongwanggong.
Chu Yang's avatar casually rolled up the purple bamboo, examined it carefully, and was immediately overjoyed.
Although the Purple Jade Spirit Bamboo was dispensable to the Eastern King Duke, it was a rare and precious material for him.
With this purple bamboo, Chu Yang will be able to complete the tempering of the last flying sword!
"Time acceleration effect? Very good, you know what's good for you." Chu Yang nodded in satisfaction. "You can leave now."
After saying that, he waved his hand and removed one corner of the formation.
As if granted a pardon, Dongwanggong no longer cared about Chang'er Dingguangxian and transformed into a streak of light, fleeing Yingzhou Island without looking back.
After Dongwanggong fled, Chu Yang did not rush to release Chang'er Dingguangxian.
He sneered. This rabbit spirit dared to covet the spiritual root of Yingzhou Island. He would not be able to quell his hatred without giving it a proper "welcome".
Besides, by making an example of someone, we should also show those restless souls in the primordial world that Yingzhou Island is not a pushover, and that they can come and go as they please.
The formation remained in place, but the visual illusion had changed.
No longer just a few vicious dogs, but packs of ancient ferocious beasts, including Qiongqi, Taotie, and others, all with grotesque faces, baring their fangs and claws as they chased after the Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal.
The poor Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal, who had been chased to the point of utter terror by several vicious dogs, was now even more terrified in the face of these ancient ferocious beasts.
He leaped and bounded within the formation, dodging left and right, his screams echoing throughout the room.
"Junior Brother Xiaolei, spare me! Junior Brother Xiaolei, I was wrong! I shouldn't have brought the Eastern King Duke here!"
Long-eared Dingguang Immortal cried out, his voice hoarse, and he no longer had any semblance of his ethereal and otherworldly appearance.
Chu Yang watched coldly, without a trace of pity in his heart.
A few days later, Chu Yang felt that the time was right and removed the formation.
The long-eared Dingguangxian, barely alive, collapsed to the ground like a tattered sack, covered in wounds, barely breathing.
Chu Yang kicked him off Yingzhou Island. "Get out! If you dare set foot on Yingzhou Island again, I'll make sure your soul is scattered!"
Chang Er Dingguang Xian felt as if he had been granted a pardon and fled Yingzhou Island in a panic. His fear of Chu Yang was even deeper than his fear of Dong Wang Gong.
Having cultivated in Biyou Palace for so long, Dingguang Xian considered himself a master of formations, but he was completely powerless against the great formation controlled by Chu Yang!
After getting rid of those two eyesores, Chu Yang took out the piece of purple jade bamboo.
This bamboo feels warm to the touch and emits a faint fragrance. Its nodes are distinct, as if it were carved from purple jade.
Chu Yang sat cross-legged, placing the Purple Jade Spirit Bamboo in front of him. He took a deep breath, forced a drop of essence blood from his fingertip, and let it drip onto the spirit bamboo.
The essence and blood instantly merged into the spirit bamboo, and a bright purple light shone forth, spreading a rich power of the laws of time.
Chu Yang began refining the Purple Jade Spirit Bamboo, integrating it into his final natal flying sword.
This flying sword was forged by him over several years using ten-thousand-year-old cold iron as the main material, supplemented by various rare materials.
Now, only the final step remains: integrating into his laws of time, and then everything will be complete.
However, the laws of time are also the most elusive and unpredictable, several times more difficult to apply than the laws of space!
Fortunately, his understanding of the laws of time was deep enough, and his strength had improved a lot. As time went by, the purple jade bamboo gradually merged into the flying sword, and the sword's blade was gradually tinged with a light purple, faintly exuding a mysterious power of time.
Finally, with a crisp sword cry, the last natal flying sword was completed!
The flying sword was drawn, its purple light soaring into the sky, and a powerful sword intent swept across the entire Yingzhou Island.
At the same time, Chu Yang's other nine natal flying swords were also unsheathed, swirling and dancing around the newly forged flying sword, like stars surrounding the moon.
The ten flying swords each exuded a different aura, yet they resonated with each other, forming a perfect whole.
With a thought, Chu Yang instantly merged the ten flying swords into one, transforming it into a giant sword with a five-colored body, which hovered above his head.
This giant sword can also split at the same time, transforming into ten sword lights.
"go!"
At Chu Yang's command, ten flying swords each occupied a corner.
The ten flying swords hummed and trembled, their five-colored lights reflecting off each other, dazzling and beautiful.
Chu Yang could sense that they were not simply merging, but undergoing a deeper transformation.
An aura of profound mystery emanated from the fused giant sword, giving him a jolt.
"This is... the aura of the laws of chaos?" Chu Yang murmured to himself, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He had heard of the Chaos Law from the Tongtian Sect Leader. It was a supreme existence that transcended all other laws, representing the primordial state before the creation of heaven and earth.
It is said that only by integrating all the laws can one finally comprehend the laws of chaos.
And now, the ten natal flying swords he forged are actually starting to evolve in the direction of the Chaos Law on their own!
This is simply unbelievable!
Chu Yang suppressed his excitement and carefully sensed the chaotic aura contained within the giant sword.
Although this aura was faint, it was real, like a newborn baby, full of infinite potential.
With a thought, the giant sword split apart again, transforming into ten streams of light that danced around him.
Each sword light contained a different law of power, yet they resonated with and merged with each other, like a precise instrument operating perfectly.
Chu Yang stretched out his finger and gently touched one of the flying swords.
A warm, smooth sensation came from his fingertips, and a surge of pure law power flowed into his body, making him feel completely comfortable.
"It seems that these ten flying swords are not simply fused together, but have formed a cycle, promoting each other and growing together."
Chu Yang thought to himself, "As long as I continue to improve my strength and comprehend deeper levels of laws, they will also evolve accordingly, eventually transforming into the laws of chaos!"
Thinking of this, Chu Yang couldn't help but feel his heart surge with emotion.
The Law of Chaos—that's the ultimate realm that countless cultivators dream of!
Even a sage cannot comprehend it.
In the Devouring World, only those stronger than True Gods can access this level.
Now that he actually has the opportunity to touch this realm, how could he not be excited?
He took a deep breath and retracted the ten flying swords into his body to nurture them.
Chu Yang took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and began to try to guide the power of these ten laws to further merge.
This is an extremely long and arduous process; the slightest mistake can lead to the loss of all previous efforts, or even to going astray.
Time flies by during cultivation, and a thousand years pass in the blink of an eye.
Above Yingzhou Island, the five-colored giant sword still hovered, but the chaotic aura on it became increasingly dense, somewhat similar to the chaotic air currents outside the primordial world.
The oppressive aura emanating from it grew increasingly terrifying, even causing the surrounding space to begin to subtly distort.
On this day, the giant sword suddenly trembled violently, its multicolored light flashing alternately, as if it were about to explode at any moment.
Chu Yang's expression changed, and he quickly increased his magical output to stabilize the giant sword.
"Freeze it!"
With a roar, his magical power surged into the giant sword like a floodgate being opened.
The multicolored light gradually stabilized and eventually merged into a chaotic color, and an immense and unparalleled pressure swept out, enveloping the entire Yingzhou Island.
"It's done!"
Chu Yang let out a long sigh of relief, his eyes filled with excitement.
After a thousand years, he finally managed to integrate the laws of his ten natal flying swords into one, creating a Primordial Sword!
With a wave of his hand, the Primordial Sword flew into his grasp. It felt warm to the touch, yet was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
The sword's blade was constantly circulating with chaotic energy, as if it contained endless mysteries.
After leaving Yingzhou Island, Chu Yang found an uninhabited island and casually swung his sword. A chaotic sword aura shot out from the Primordial Sword, tearing through the void and instantly leveling the distant island to the ground.
"Such immense power!"
Chu Yang was secretly shocked; the power of the Primordial Sword was far greater than he had anticipated.
Chu Yang didn't know how to judge the grade of his Primordial Sword, but the pressure it emitted was much stronger than that of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.
Even vaguely, Chu Yang felt that this Primordial Sword was not far inferior to a Primordial Treasure!
Chu Yang had also seen his master demonstrate his Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation. Each of the four immortal swords exuded an extreme killing aura. Compared to the four Immortal Slaughtering Swords, Chu Yang's ten flying swords were much inferior and much more restrained.
When he was in Kunlun Mountain, he also saw the Pangu Banner, the innate treasure of the Primordial Sage. Every innate treasure can be considered an ultimate treasure!
Chu Yang was extremely satisfied with the ten flying swords he had painstakingly forged over thousands of years.
Putting everything else aside, just relying on the power of the Law Sword Array formed by the fusion of these ten natal flying swords, Chu Yang was confident that he could face a powerful being in the early stage of Quasi-Sainthood alone.
Feeling that his strength had greatly increased, Chu Yang decided not to continue his seclusion.
Now Chu Yang has enough strength to protect the human race, and some of his plans can begin!
The human race is now thriving. The two major races, the witch race and the demon race, no longer pose much of a threat. Without these two major enemies, the human race is developing very rapidly.
Returning to the ancestral land of humanity, everything had changed beyond recognition.
The once simple thatched huts have now been replaced by magnificent palaces.
The human population has also increased countless times, with bustling crowds and happy smiles on their faces.
Chu Yang's arrival did not cause much of a stir, after all, he had been gone for too long, and the new generation of humans did not recognize him at all.
However, some elderly people still recognized Chu Yang.
"It's the Immortal Master! Immortal Master Chu Yang has returned!"
A gasp rang out, and the crowd immediately stirred.
"Immortal Master Chu Yang? Which Immortal Master Chu Yang?"
The young man asked curiously, and a buzz of discussion immediately arose around him.
An elderly man with white hair pushed his way through the crowd, walked shakily to Chu Yang, and knelt down with a thud, tears streaming down his face. "Immortal Master Chu Yang! You...you've finally returned! This old man...this old man respectfully welcomes your return, Immortal Master!"
Upon seeing this, the surrounding crowd also knelt down and shouted, "Welcome back, Immortal Master!"
The sound waves rose higher and higher, deafeningly loud.
Chu Yang quickly helped the old man up and said gently, "Grandpa, there's no need for such formalities. Please get up."
The old man's name was Taicang, and he was a Xuanxian cultivator.
He was once taught by Chu Yang and is now a pillar of the human race.
Taicang gripped Chu Yang's hand tightly, so excited he was almost incoherent: "Immortal Master, in the years you've been gone, the human race... the human race has undergone earth-shattering changes! This... all of this is thanks to you!"
Chu Yang looked around at the prosperous human race before him, and his heart was filled with satisfaction.
The towering city walls, the rows of houses, the bustling streets, and the happy smiles on people's faces all filled him with immense satisfaction.
Back then, after Mount Buzhou collapsed, he saved countless humans from the raging flood, killed the demon saint Jiuying who was afflicting the human race, and later taught the human race many techniques and secret arts, greatly increasing the strength of the human race.
In the subsequent Lich War, it indirectly allowed many humans to survive.
"Taicang, how have the human race fared these past years?" Chu Yang asked.
Taicang sighed and said, "Immortal Master, you may not know this, but although the human race is prosperous today, internal divisions have emerged. Some humans have begun to pursue power and wealth, gradually forgetting the hardships and unity of the past."
Chu Yang frowned slightly, a vague sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.
He continued, "Who leads the human race now?"
"The human race is now divided into five major tribes, each governing its own territory and refusing to yield to one another." (End of Chapter)
