Chapter 915: Chapter 320: Completely Eliminating the Threat of the Ghost Cave
“By the way, I have already broken through to the Emperor Sovereign Realm. According to ancestral tradition, I must abdicate. I have had someone calculate the date. In seven days, you will ascend to the throne.” Mu Chengqian said slowly.
“Father, isn’t this too soon? The Ghost Cave hasn’t been resolved yet. If you step down now, it might cause turmoil across the nation.”
“Although tradition states that one must abdicate upon breaking through to the Emperor Sovereign, it also allows for delays if special events occur. The current widespread unrest in the Ghost Cave can be considered a special event.” Mu Rufeng interjected.
Although he also wanted to become Emperor, Mu Rufeng had a plan in mind. If this plan could be implemented, he could completely resolve the Five Ghost Caves.
In this way, he could directly rescue the entire Heavenly Dao Continent.
And the premise of this plan is that Mu Rufeng cannot become Emperor right now.
Or rather, it’s not that he cannot become Emperor, but that he needs time now, and he must quickly break through to the God Realm.
Only by reaching the God Realm can he implement that plan; otherwise, with his current power, the plan is doomed to fail.
And to quickly break through to the God Realm, he simply has no time to become Emperor.
“No problem, make your preparations and be ready to ascend in seven days. I will have someone announce it to the world.” Mu Chengqian waved his hand, clearly unconcerned with Mu Rufeng’s words.
“Father, I need to break through to the God Realm as soon as possible and have no time to ascend the throne. Once I break through, I have a way to completely eliminate the threat of the Ghost Cave.” Mu Rufeng said.
“Completely eliminate the threat of the Ghost Cave? Rufeng, are you sure?” Mu Chengqian was slightly surprised upon hearing this, and then asked seriously.
“I am sure, but the premise is that I need to break through to the God Realm.” Mu Rufeng replied.
“How long will it take you to break through?” Mu Chengqian asked.
“At least two months, but with some soul-type Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, I can speed up the process.” Mu Rufeng said.
“Alright, then wait until you break through to the God Realm to ascend the throne. The Heavenly Treasure Vault will be open to you. It contains the resources needed by the ancestors, including many soul-type Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.” Mu Chengqian said.
“Thank you, Father!” Mu Rufeng quickly expressed his gratitude.
The Da Li Dynasty’s treasury is not just one; Mu Rufeng had visited the Earthly Vault before, which has a vast amount of resources.
However, the Heavenly Vault is not open to the public and is meant for the resources needed by the royal ancestors for cultivation.
The resources distributed to the Emperor Sovereigns of the Da Li Dynasty also come from the Heavenly Vault, which only the Emperor and Grand Ancestor have the authority to open and enter.
After receiving the command, Mu Rufeng immediately prepared to leave for the Heavenly Vault.
Mu Chengqian promptly stopped him: “Your marriage is set for next month, if you go into seclusion now, you cannot wed.”
“We’ll discuss it after I break through. I believe Yanran will understand. I’ve already sent someone to inform her.” Mu Rufeng said.
“Since you’ve said so, let me take you to the Heavenly Vault then.” Mu Chengqian said, with a wave of his hand, directly taking Mu Rufeng away from the Taihe Palace.
When the two of them reappeared, they found themselves within a grand hall that Mu Rufeng had never visited before.
This hall seems to be built underneath the Imperial Palace, extremely luxurious.
This luxury is not in the appearance of the hall, but in its materials, because it is very sturdy, even an Emperor Sovereign would have difficulty breaking through it.
It vaguely bears array patterns, which accommodate exceptionally powerful arrays, that even an Emperor Sovereign cannot breach.
The Heavenly Treasure Vault slowly opened.
“Go inside, and I will open the gate once you break through to the God Realm.” Mu Chengqian said.
“Yes, Father.” Mu Rufeng nodded, then walked in.
As Mu Rufeng entered, the door to the vault slowly closed.
“I hope Rufeng will bring me a surprise.” Mu Chengqian smiled faintly, then disappeared from the spot.
…
Western Regions, Fengming Pond.
A cave standing atop Fengming Pond continuously emitted black qi and countless Evil Ghosts.
Terrifying howls and a stench filled the air in this area.
If observed from high above, one would see that the area within a hundred kilometers was shrouded in black ghost qi.
Within the ghost qi, there was a tide of Evil Ghosts.
These Evil Ghosts brandished their claws, hideous and fierce.
Clatter~~!
A torrent of flames descended from the sky.
A large portion of the ghost qi was dispelled, and many Evil Ghosts were incinerated and extinguished.
Instantly, the ghost qi and Evil Ghosts in this region were cleared, but within three to five breaths, the area was replenished again with ghost qi and Evil Ghosts.
High above, there were three Feng Clan ancestors and one Vermilion Bird Ancestor.
The four ancestors continuously unleashed terrifying flame attacks downward.
On the perimeter, some Demon Emperor Feng Clan and some bird-type Demon Emperors were relentlessly slaughtering the Evil Ghosts within the ghost qi.
Many, the enemies were truly too many.
And the Feng Clan still had too few people, the bird clans attached to them lacked even a single Emperor Sovereign, and the Demon Emperors had little effect.
The four ancestors found it difficult to deal with such endless waves of Evil Ghosts.
Especially since among these Evil Ghosts, there were numerous God Realm Evil Ghosts.
It’s not that they couldn’t be killed, but that they were replenished so quickly that they couldn’t be killed fast enough.
“Damn it, won’t the Jiao Clan and White Tiger Clan send any people?” A Feng Clan ancestor cursed.
