1436: Chapter 1436: The Essence of the Chaos Ghost 1436: Chapter 1436: The Essence of the Chaos Ghost “Why I should live is none of your concern, you must submit to me!”
The man in silver armor spoke gravely, his face as fine as a jade crown, pupils a bizarre white, incomparably eerie, like a cold and merciless supreme deity.
Cang Baitian’s face darkened, how could he, having just broken out of the Qiuming Abyss, be willing to live beneath another?
“Dream on, if my father and uncle knew you dared to lay a hand on me, you would be finished!”
Cang Baitian gnashed his teeth, his father being none other than Cang Shekui, the son of Mo Jingcang, and his uncle the blood-devouring demon god, a chaotic creature as terrifying as the extreme flame demon god.
The man in silver armor began to laugh, but it was a laugh so piercingly cold that Cang Baitian couldn’t help but step back.
“Cang Shekui has long been dead, and as for the blood-devouring demon god, he has become a lapdog of the Prison Path Divine Emperor.
They can’t help you.
Now, you have no choice but to rely on me.
With the Warlord and the Chaos Twins in the central universe, your venture there is certain death!”
The man in silver armor said deeply, his words caused Cang Baitian’s eyes to widen.
The Warlord!
The Chaos Twins!
How could this be?
Cang Baitian nearly peed himself in fear, weren’t these powerful beings supposed to be contending in the struggles of the ancient holy emperors?
Why would they come to the inner universe?
“You have three breaths’ time to decide: submit to me or die, I command the Devil Clan!” The man in silver armor uttered solemnly.
“Three!”
“Two!”
“Wait!
I submit to you!
Don’t kill me!”
Cang Baitian hastily cried out, his heart filled with even greater hatred for the Qiuming Emperor.
Had he not been suppressed by the Qiuming Emperor for countless years, he would have been tens of thousands of times stronger than he was now.
The man in silver armor finally allowed a terrifying smile to appear.
“Follow me, and the central universe will eventually be yours!”
…
At the Lin Family’s immortal mountain, as soon as Qin Jun and others returned, the entire mountain burst into jubilation, setting a feast throughout the realm.
The God and Demon made merry with their wine, Qin Jun sent Yang Jian to fetch more God and Demon, and the other Heavenly Concubines were also brought over.
The Great Qin Heavenly Court was not merely comprised of God and Demon; many of its ministers were natives of the Xuandang universe.
One day, Qin Jun summoned Luo Shixin, Zhao Gongming, and the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord.
Their contributions within the Great Qin Heavenly Court were extremely significant, and Qin Jun planned to reward them with the utmost awakening.
“Your Majesty, we serve at your pleasure!”
The three God and Demon knelt to salute, their eyes brimming with excitement as they gazed at Qin Jun.
They were not fools; of course, they understood the significance of Qin Jun calling for them.
Even the typically emotionless Grand Supreme Elderly Lord’s eyes sparkled with excitement, witnessing other God and Demon soaring high while he could only guard the Xuandang universe, leaving his heart feeling somewhat desolate.
Luo Shixin was the progenitor of the Qilin, his talent was undoubted, while the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord was a split body of one of the Three Pure Ones, and even though Zhao Gongming might lag slightly, he should still reach the sacred apotheosis of the Heavenly Dao.
Talent is something inconspicuous at times, but once it manifests, the disparity between individuals can be vast.
“It seems you’ve guessed it; I will use Divine Power to strengthen you, conduct yourselves wisely!”
Qin Jun couldn’t be bothered with niceties, as the loyalty of the three God and Demon was absolute, there was no need for empty words.
“Let Luo Shixin, Zhao Gongming, and the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord achieve ultimate awakening!”
Qin Jun commanded in his mind, and as his words fell, a black hole appeared overhead, rapidly sucking in the trio.
As to how much the three could improve, he wasn’t particularly expectant.
Even with ultimate awakening, they still could not touch the seat of the greatest strength of the Great Qin Heavenly Court.
For Huo Qubing, Guo Jia, and Guan Zhong had returned.
The Chaos Twins were Boundaryless Realm powerhouses, only slightly less formidable than Huo Qubing.
“Shouyue, bring Jing Ke here.”
Qin Jun spoke, and immediately after, Baili Shouyue’s voice came from beyond the courtyard wall: “Yes!”
Jing Ke, who only possessed Foundation Establishment-level cultivation, needed Qin Jun’s nurturing, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
His fame was still soaring wildly, and for Jing Ke to change his physique was not a difficult task.
Soon, Jing Ke was brought over by Baili Shouyue, who then tactfully left.
The frail Jing Ke knelt on the ground, trembling.
Although he worshiped Qin Jun, he did not know why Qin Jun sought him out, his heart filled with trepidation.
“This is the essence of a Chaos Ghost.
If you consume it, you will transform into a Chaos Ghost.
Not only will your cultivation leap forwards, but you will also become the universe’s number one assassin across all heavens.”
Qin Jun took out a transparent glass bottle containing a piece of blue crystal the size of a fingertip.
Chaos Ghosts were also beings born from Chaos, shadowless and formless, extremely mysterious.
Qin Jun had seen one during the dawn of Chaos and did not expect the essence of a Chaos Ghost to appear in the mythology shopping mall; valued at one hundred sixty trillion fame points, it showed just how expensive the bloodline of Chaos beings was.
Jing Ke was stunned.
Chaos Ghosts?
It sounded rather ominous.
Instinctively resistant, he asked cautiously, “If I become a Chaos Ghost, am I still myself?”
A ghost, isn’t that what a spirit is?
Qin Jun saw through his fear at a glance.
In the mortal world, he was a daring assassin who once aimed for the life of the king of Qin, but here, he was nothing more than a weak ant.
“As a Chaos Ghost, you will still be you.
This is the only path for you.
As someone at the Foundation Establishment stage, you simply can’t survive here.
Any random child outside has higher cultivation than you.
If you encounter a mischievous child, they could kill you with a single punch.
Do you believe that?
Here, you are an outlier!
A weak outlier!”
Qin Jun said solemnly.
This was an opportunity many dreamed of, and yet this fellow was afraid.
Jing Ke was silent.
These days he had felt unbearably awkward.
If not for Qin Jun’s sake, he would have been thrown into the starry sky to die without a resting place.
Without Qin Jun, he would surely die; but even with Qin Jun, the God and Demon clans ostracized him.
It was extremely uncomfortable.
“If I wanted to harm you, you wouldn’t have the slightest chance to resist.”
Qin Jun picked up a cup of wine, smiling lightly.
He actually wanted to focus on cultivating Jing Ke.
The Curse Dao was too obscure; given to an assassin, it would be terrifying.
And the Heavenly Court of Great Qin was exactly in need of assassins.
In the future, with just a word from Qin Jun, Jing Ke would venture forth, crossing countless galaxies to claim the heads of enemy leaders.
The very thought was delightful.
How terrifying would an assassin who possessed the power of curses be?
Jing Ke took a deep breath and slowly raised his head, his gaunt face showing a hint of determination.
He, too, harbored a heart unwilling to settle for mediocrity, understanding that the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was right before his eyes; to miss it was to never have it again.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Jing Ke said solemnly.
After speaking, he stood up and picked up the transparent small bottle from the stone table.
“After you go down, take it by mouth directly.
I will have Shouyue protect you.”
Qin Jun gestured with his hand, as inheriting the Curse Dao as a Chaos Ghost could possibly allow Jing Ke to rise among the top five of the Great Qin Heavenly Court.
After all, Chaos Ghosts were beings of Chaos, with talents beyond comparison, neither Luo Shixin nor the Grand Supreme Elder could match.
“Yes!”
Jing Ke bowed with a fist salute, then turned to leave.
Watching his departing figure, Qin Jun began to ponder, stroking his chin.
Should he create a secretive assassination organization?
A group of peerless assassins hidden within the shadows?
Unfortunately, the fame points needed for the essence of the second Chaos Ghost exceeded three hundred million.
Even if they depleted all their fame points, they could not gather more than a few Chaos Ghost assassins.
“Begin the God and Demon summons!”
Qin Jun continued to give orders, having earned two God and Demon summoning opportunities after completing the task of the peerless battle.
He hadn’t used one specific God and Demon summoning before and planned to use them all today.
