Chapter 345 Divine Shadow Possession
"Immortal Emperor?"
Su Yie smiled disdainfully. He couldn't possibly let Zhu Tianpeng go; it would be like setting a tiger free to return to the mountain.
Since he was going to offend that mysterious Immortal Emperor anyway, he no longer cared.
Immediately, he leaped into the air, soared skyward, and the Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants swarmed in, engulfing Zhu Tianpeng. The Divine Shadow of Emperor Su also teleported and appeared beside Su Yie, looking down together at the hundreds of Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants below.
The movements of the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su synchronized with Su Yie's, like a shadow following the form.
"Am I seeing things?"
Nan Xiaopao muttered softly. She always felt Su Yie resembled Emperor Su; she wondered if it was just a coincidence.
The others didn't think too much about it. They were all marveling at the strength of the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su and hadn't noticed anything unusual. Only Nan Xiaopao, who had been close to Su Yie day and night, could keenly detect this.
But if Su Yie was Emperor Su, why would they need to be in such dire straits?
Nan Xiaopao shook her head, dispelled the stray thoughts from her mind, and thought no further.
"Ahhhh—"
"Spare me..."
"I was wrong..."
Zhu Tianpeng screamed in agony among the hundreds of Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants, his voice growing increasingly weaker.
Suspended in the air, Su Yie slightly closed his eyes, as annihilating a million Heavenly Soldiers and Generals earned him an opportunity to invite someone.
Please invite any one of the following beings to join Emperor Su's Sect!
Immortal Lord of the Mysterious Sea!
Dream-Stealing Demon Lord!
Emperor Luo!
Infinite Ninth-Level!
Chaotic Demon Eagle!
Xiaoo Juechen!
...
Thirty-one names in total, except for some that appear repeatedly, none seemed like Mortal Spirits.
Su Yie didn't make a decision immediately but waited for Zhu Tianpeng to fall.
Zhu Tianpeng's hundred-yard divine body was consumed by the Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants, and soon his voice disappeared, followed by his life force.
A new feature emerged in Su Yie's mind.
Eliminating Zhu Tianpeng didn't earn him a second invitation slot but a new feature, which somewhat annoyed him.
However, when he learned about the capabilities of the new feature, he was ecstatic.
Divine Shadow Possession!
Sect Elder!
Repository of the Dao Contribution!
The feature that excited Su Yie was Divine Shadow Possession, which allowed him to choose any member of Emperor Su's Sect to embody in Divine Shadow Possession, possessing the complete strength of that Divine Shadow for half an hour, naturally, except for the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su!
Moreover, this feature doesn't conflict with the Divine Shadow Legion or the Sect Master's Divine Presence!
Su Yie almost didn't hesitate and immediately chose Divine Shadow Possession!
This was definitely a lifesaving skill!
Meanwhile, all the Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants fluttered their wings and hovered around him and the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su, the sound of their wings thunderous.
Su Yie slowly descended, he didn't speak, but the Myriad Demon Court was already jubilant.
"We won!"
"The Divine Shadow of Emperor Su's Sect is too strong!"
"Heaven blesses our Myriad Demon Court!"
"Haha! What are a million Heavenly Soldiers and Generals to us!"
"So mighty!"
Cheers permeated the heavens and earth, as if to overturn the Sky Dome.
After landing, everyone gathered around Su Yie, looking at the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su, members of Emperor Su's Sect were in continuous awe.
In front of the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su, a million Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were like mere shrimps and crabs, an unforgettable sight for them from now on.
Su Yie's lips curled up as the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su disappeared into the earth, and he chuckled, "Alright, disperse now and check how many casualties the Myriad Demon Court has suffered."
Upon hearing this, everyone had no choice but to leave.
The news then spread within the Emperor Su's Sect.
Shangguan Wuji said, "Could our Sect Master actually be an Immortal Ancestor? A million Heavenly Soldiers and Generals were annihilated just like that..."
Northern War God asked, "Oh? How many moves did he use?"
Tang Qingtian laughed, "Hahahaha! Just one move!"
He Youming said, "Who now in the Eastern Lands dares to oppose us?"
Supreme Dragon Shaking said, "That powerful? It feels like anyone in front of the Sect Master's Divine Shadow is just like an ant."
Savage Devouring Heavenly Mouse exclaimed, "The Sect Master is invincible!"
Yang Jian asked, "Oh? Is Emperor Su really that powerful?"
...
Seeing the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su annihilate a million Heavenly Soldiers and Generals with one move, the members of Emperor Su's Sect could not stay put.
Su Yie, on the other hand, returned to the Demon Emperor Palace with the Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants.
After absorbing the Immortal Blood of Zhu Tianpeng, half of the Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants doubled in size, and Su Yie felt their strength surge tremendously. If this continued, his True Sunflame wouldn't be enough to feed them.
If they didn't get enough to eat, they might very well start preying on the creatures of the Myriad Demon Court.
"How strong are you now?"
Inside the Demon Emperor Palace, Su Yie stroked the largest of the Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants, the Ant Queen, which unlike usual Ant Queens wasn't bloated and looked no different from the others except for its massive size.
The Ant Queen lowered its head and nuzzled Su Yie's back as a gesture of affection. Enjoy new adventures from My Virtual Library Empire
In their eyes, Su Yie was their mother.
Yes...
Indeed, their mother!
The Bloodthirsty Golden Flame Ants only recognized a mother figure, with no concept of a father.
After watching them for a while, Su Yie returned to his bed and sat in meditation.
As for Haotian Wuxiang, he was no longer worried; with the Divine Shadow Possession at hand, Haotian Wuxiang might as well wait for his death!
Meanwhile, the news began to spread.
Within a day, it had spread throughout the entire Eastern Lands!
"Is it true? He annihilated a million Heavenly Soldiers and Generals with one move?"
"Oh my God! Should we just surrender to the Demon Emperor?"
"Could the Demon Emperor be the biological son of Emperor Su's Sect? Could the Demon Emperor be Emperor Su's son?"
"Very likely. They both have the surname Su, and I still can't believe it. Those were Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, and there were a million of them!"
"Tsk tsk, I guess Haotian Wuxiang won't dare to trouble the Demon Emperor anymore, huh?"
As the rumor spread more and more absurdly, the name of Emperor Su also exploded in popularity, overshadowing Su Yie. All beings were curious about how strong the founder of Emperor Su's Sect, Emperor Su himself, was and what his origin was.
The next morning, Haotian Wuxiang showed up at the Myriad Demon Court.
He had gathered much intelligence on Emperor Su's Sect; the Divine Shadow Legion and the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su appeared at most twice a month, meaning the Divine Shadow of Emperor Su's Sect could no longer assist Su Yie now.
"I am Haotian Wuxiang, Demon Emperor, come out and fight!"
The voice of Haotian Wuxiang echoed through the skies of the Myriad Demon Court, just like when Zhu Tianpeng had descended.
However, this time, the Myriad Demon Court did not panic.
A joke; if a million Heavenly Soldiers and Generals knelt before the Myriad Demon Court, what was Haotian Wuxiang but a trifle?
With no response, Haotian Wuxiang frowned, a flash of anger in his eyes. He immediately raised his right hand, and mana surged forth, gathering into a Light Sword a thousand feet long.
Cultivation at a certain level, both demonic power and spiritual power transform into the stronger mana.
Yue Qinglong had said in Emperor Su's Sect that every Grand World has different levels, and the transformation into mana varied in timing, but this did not necessarily mean that an earlier transformation into mana implied a stronger state as the world laws differed.
"Stop blabbering! Let me be the first to confront you!"
Sun Qitian sprung out from the Myriad Demon Court, flew into the sky, raised the Golden Rod high, and sneered, "A myth of this era? Today, let me be the one to shatter that myth!"
Upon finishing his declaration, he charged towards Haotian Wuxiang.
At the same time, all creatures of the Myriad Demon Court stepped out of their homes and even flew into the low sky to watch this battle unfold.
Even Nan Xiaopao, Xia Tianyi, and others came out to watch the excitement, the only exception being Su Yie, who stayed inside the Demon Emperor Palace.
