Chapter 578
In just a short while, only Ouyang Tiande and his three personal guards were left in the hall that originally had over a hundred people. Ouyang Tiande didn’t immediately get up to leave the hall. He silently laid down on the comfortable dragon chair and closed his eyes again. He didn’t move and seemed to have fallen asleep.
The three personal guards of the Dragon Elephant Realm were like three black logs that stood half a zhang behind the dragon chair. They didn’t move at all and loyally protected Ouyang Tiande’s safety.
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, Ouyang Tiande slowly opened his eyes. His small eyes were like a pair of venomous snakes that made people shudder. A sinister and malicious smile bloomed on his face. His thick lips slightly opened and gloomy words floated out: “Xiao Zhan ah, I didn’t think that you still had a trick up your sleeves. You actually played a trick of swapping a leopard cat for a crown prince. We thought that your three sons were all dead. I presume that one of the children’s corpses in the imperial palace wasn’t your son, right?
Hehe! ”
“Xiao Zhan, it’s been a whole fifteen years. This son of yours has grown up. He’s very outstanding. Of course, he’s not inferior to you. He’s even more outstanding than you. I originally wanted to recruit him as my son-in-law, but there’s no need now because I’m going to send him to hell to reunite with you. This old brother of mine treats you well, right?
Hehe! ”
“Xiao Chen, don’t blame I for being heartless. You’re indeed very outstanding. I reckon that the Qilin Nation won’t be able to find a youngster that can compete with you. I admires you very much, but you’re Xiao Zhan’s son. You’re destined to die. Even if I doesn’t kill you, the Gongsun Clan and HuangFu Clan will use all their strength to hunt you down when they find out that you’re still alive. At that time, you’ll find it hard to escape death!”
Ouyang Tiande was like a madman as he muttered to himself for a long time. Suddenly, he shouted: “Black Tiger!”
“Xiu!”
The eldest of the three personal guards, Black Tiger, heard Ouyang Tiande’s call and immediately scuttled half a zhang in front of Ouyang Tiande. He knelt down on one knee and respectfully said: “Your Majesty!
This subordinate is here! ”
“Black Tiger!
Immediately use I’s name to draft two sets of secret documents stating that Xiao Chen is Xiao Zhan’s son. Use the Swift Eagle to secretly send it to the royal palace of the Heaven Mystics Kingdom and the royal palace of the Northern Dark Kingdom. Ask them to send an absolute expert to the Fire Spirit City within three days to support I. We will resist and kill the absolute expert behind Xiao Chen!
Go! ”
“Yes!
Your Majesty! ”
When the Black Dragon heard Ouyang Tiande’s bold command, he was extremely shocked. However, he didn’t hesitate at all and respectfully retreated to do his job.
Ouyang Tiande was a sinister, ruthless, and cautious person. He would rather believe that there was an absolute expert behind Xiao Chen than to let his guard down. He actually wanted to seek help from the other two clans that plotted against Xiao Zhan and the Xiao Clan back then. It seemed like he didn’t have the confidence to deal with the expert behind Xiao Chen.
Ouyang Tiande was sure that as long as the Gongsun Clan and the Huangfu Clan knew that Xiao Zhan’s son was still alive, they would definitely let go of their grudges and hatred and work together to deal with the remaining members of the Xiao Clan. One couldn’t blame them for being cautious, but the Xiao Clan’s bloodline was too powerful. Once Xiao Chen grew up completely, Xiao Chen would definitely become the next Xiao Zhan and rule the world!
This wasn’t an alarmist or an exaggeration. The direct bloodline of the Xiao Clan had this potential. From the fact that Xiao Chen became a young king before the age of 20, it could be seen that this trend was inevitable. As long as Xiao Chen was given another 20 to 30 years, or just a dozen years, he would become a supreme expert. If he had some heaven-defying opportunities, it wasn’t impossible for him to become an absolute expert!
All of this was because Xiao Chen had the strongest godly gift in the Wilderness God Continent — the Demonic Godly Gift. Whoever had the Demonic Godly Gift would have the greatest chance to become an emperor. The reason was that the Demonic Godly Gift could evolve, and it could evolve three times before finally evolving into a ninth-grade godly gift.
Ninth-grade godly gift!
It was too terrifying!
Currently, there were no seventh-grade or eighth-grade godly gifts in the Wilderness God Continent. The highest grade was the sixth-grade godly gift. If Xiao Chen’s Demonic Godly Gift were to evolve from the sixth-grade to the ninth-grade, then Xiao Chen’s ninth-grade godly gift would become the emperor of all godly gifts. The other godly gifts could only bow down to them.
After a ninth-grade godly gift was released, it could raise the strength of a Fighter 7-dan expert.
Furthermore, speed, defense, reaction, and attack power would all be increased by several folds. These attributes were also possessed by other high-grade godly gifts, just that the enhancement was not as great as a ninth-grade godly gift.
Since a ninth-grade godly gift was the emperor of all godly gifts, it was bound to have another special attribute. This special attribute was that once a ninth-grade godly gift was released, the owner of the ninth-grade godly gift would possess the ability to summon a soul battle technique.
A so-called soul battle technique was a mystical battle technique created by the combination of a godly gift and a soul. The target of a soul battle technique was not the enemy’s physical body, but the enemy’s soul. This attack on the soul was extremely terrifying. It could be said that a cultivator who possessed a soul battle technique could instantly kill any enemy of the same realm.
A ninth-grade godly gift could raise the strength of a Fighter by 7-dan. In other words, it could raise the strength of a cultivator by two realms. If a cultivator who possessed a soul battle technique were to release a ninth-grade godly gift, he would be able to instantly kill an enemy two realms higher than him!
Of course, there was a prerequisite for this instant kill. The prerequisite was that the soul battle technique had to strike the enemy’s head. Otherwise, how could it be considered an instant kill?
A soul battle technique specialized in attacking a person’s soul, and the human brain was the place where the soul existed. If one wanted to destroy the enemy’s soul, they had to strike the enemy’s brain.
It was precisely because a ninth-grade godly gift was so terrifying that Ouyang Tiande paid so much attention to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen had a demonified godly gift that could evolve into a ninth-grade godly gift. How could Ouyang Tiande let Xiao Chen grow? Once Xiao Chen grew up completely and successfully evolved the demonified godly gift three times, then Xiao Chen would become the new emperor of the Huangshen Continent.
Xiao Zhan was also a demonified godly gift warrior. When he was 40 years old, his cultivation had reached the second tier of the Earth Dragon Realm. Then, he had successfully evolved the demonified godly gift twice, reaching the eighth-grade godly gift. Ouyang Tiande and the other two Hereditary Kings were jealous of Xiao Chen’s bloodline talent and the title of emperor. Therefore, Ouyang Tiande took advantage of Xiao Zhan’s carelessness and relied on Xiao Zhan’s trust in him to stab Xiao Zhan in the back, seriously injuring the defenseless Xiao Zhan.
After seriously injuring Xiao Zhan, Ouyang Tiande immediately retreated. Then, he joined forces with the three Hereditary Kings and the peerless powerhouses of the Black Magic Pavilion to kill Xiao Zhan. Xiao Zhan released the demonified godly gift and killed an Earth Dragon Realm powerhouse of the Black Magic Pavilion as well as many enemies. In the end, because he was seriously injured, he was killed by the betrayer and the powerhouses of the Black Magic Pavilion.
