Chapter 280 Becoming the New Leader of the Demon Race, the High Priest Jig
The Hundred Flowers Starfield, outside the ancestral Flower Star's atmosphere layer.
From a distance, it looks like an agate gemstone stretching across the night sky, emitting a green glow.
Around it, six equally large, colorful stars are the six secondary stars of Flower Star.
They are all connected by starry vines, densely packed, like a green forest floating in the universe, which is extremely spectacular!
Meanwhile, outside the protective array shielding Flower Star, numerous Flower Star starships stood arrayed in a solemn and orderly fashion, their armor gleaming.
Hua Jun!
Although the Flower Clan's protective forces cannot compare to the foundation of the major races, they are still considered a formidable force among all the races in the universe!
"Hurry! Hurry! We need to be fast! Units 1 through 10! All clan branches! All Flower Army members, assemble outside the Star Guardian Formation!"
"Follow the orders of the Flower Fairy Clan. Arrange yourselves in an orderly fashion and proceed immediately to the Battlefield of All Races! Fight for the Flower Clan, fight for the honor of our race—!"
"Those who cower...slay them!"
A series of majestic and resounding sounds echoed continuously from beyond the starry sky of Flower Star, spreading throughout the vast territory of Flower Star through the Star Protection Array.
It also motivates every member of the Flower Army!
On the Flower Star Territory, all the various races, upon hearing this earth-shattering roar, had already made urgent preparations, boarding their starships with solemn and grave expressions, and without hesitation, soaring into the sky!
"Brother...do you really have to go?"
In a certain tribal village, a young girl from the Flower Clan clenched her fists, her beautiful face filled with worry as she looked at the tall young man who was about to board the starship with the army. Her voice choked with sobs, "After Father left, my little sister..."
The sobbing was choked with emotion.
The tall young man suddenly stopped, but without turning around, he continued to walk forward in silence. However, it was not hard to tell from his clenched fists that his sister's sobs were making him very uneasy.
Until... he was incorporated into the army.
The tall young man's gentle voice, as always, slowly drifted over.
"Don't worry, little sister, brother... I'll be fine! I'll be back, I'll be back! Brother will continue to teach you how to make your favorite flower cake, okay? Go back now, Mother needs your care."
……
"No! I won't go! I won't fight! My grandfather and father both died in the war, this family can't lose me!"
In another direction, the remaining members of the Flower Army silently watched their tribesmen being pulled out of the tribe, remaining silent.
"If you won't fight... are you just going to watch your loved ones be slaughtered by foreign enemies? You're useless!"
With a roar, the Flower Army member who had been pulled out trembled uncontrollably, turning his head blankly to look at his loved one who was looking at him with worry...
After a long while, the members of the Flower Army clenched their fists and silently lined up to join the ranks.
……
Scenes like these are playing out continuously in every corner of Flower Star: loved ones bidding farewell with worry, the elderly sending off their children, their hearts heavy with longing and reluctance...
This is war!
It's cruel!
But for survival, for the glory of their tribe, and for the Flower Clan, they had no choice but to fight!
They are the brave men of the Flower Clan, with their loved ones behind them and countless lights waiting for them to protect them... Fight!
……
the other side.
[Look, everyone! Even the White Horse Imperial Army of the Sinnoh Empire has begun its campaign! The Sinnoh Empire of humanity is indeed getting involved in this war! I wonder what kind of subsequent developments this move by the Sinnoh Empire will trigger?]
As expected, the screen switched again during the live viewing experience for Wanzu customers as GuGe released a new message.
The scene depicted was not of the Imperial Star, but rather of the star path leading to the Empire's expedition, which was already filled with white horse starships.
The silver-white hull gleams with a dazzling metallic sheen.
"All Sinnoh Army members, board the ship immediately!"
"Get to the Flower Star battlefield at top speed! Hurry—!"
Amidst deafening battle cries, the Sinnoh soldiers, dressed in Sinnoh white horse uniforms, boarded the warship in an orderly fashion, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression!
It is much larger than the Sea Clan and the Flame Clan.
And white horse starships continue to arrive from all directions of the vast universe…
"Third Legion, Ship 639, return to service!"
"Fourth Army Corps, Ship No. 86, return to service!"
"The Second Legion..."
They gradually joined the ranks of the four legions that had already been assembled!
Of course, outside the two ancestral lands of the Yanja and the Sea Clan, starships also flew out one after another.
The combat forces deployed by both sides remain unknown to this day!
"This is for real..."
"The Sinnoh White Horse Army... the first to fourth elite legions of the Sinnoh Empire! Holy crap, some of them even belong to the ancestral court forces formed by the nine ancestral star regions of humanity, members of the Nine Righteous Armies?! What's going on? Wasn't it said that humanity is not allowed to use the power of the ancestral courts without permission?"
"You're illiterate. The rules of the human race only prohibit the use of the Nine Righteous Armies from other forces, not from using members of your own nation's Nine Righteous Armies."
Within the ancestral court of the human race, as long as six of the twelve council leaders approve, they can freely mobilize members of their own Nine Righteous Armies! Moreover, that Heavenly Monarch is an invincible powerhouse on the Legendary Ranking, so the other council leaders naturally give him face.
"I see! How generous of you, Sinnoh Empire!"
"How could you not be willing? Don't you know that the Heavenly Lord has a close relationship with the Flower Clan Chief? Even though it's been rarely mentioned in recent years, if there were no connection, would he be providing such support?"
"Hahaha... This is going to be good! Let's give them a good beating! The better, we'll wear down the human race's strength!"
……
All the customers of the Myriad Races Seeking Truth Order were watching this scene, some remaining neutral bystanders, others allies, and the remaining group naturally couldn't stand to see the human race doing well and wished for them to suffer heavy losses.
Everyone has their own agenda!
Seated in the secret room, Su Ye had naturally also purchased a Truth-Seeking Token. He frowned as he observed the tense situation: "Judging from the actions of the Sea Clan and the Flame Clan, such a large-scale military force... is it really caused by the matter of the ruins?"
Su Ye fell into deep thought.
If this scene was truly caused by the ruins, he would feel a pang of guilt, since it seemed that it was indeed his releasing Su Nuo that led to it.
But Su Ye's intuition told him that something was very strange. This was clearly a force that was being deployed with the intention of annihilating the entire clan!
Furthermore, those two clans must have learned of the Empire's attitude through the Ancient Pavilion, yet they still stubbornly continue to send troops...
Su Ye would never believe that there was no other motive involved.
"The Sinnoh Empire must have realized this as well, but I wonder if they have prepared any backup plans?"
Thinking to himself, Su Ye said with a look of relief, "It's fortunate that the higher-ups didn't drag Earth into this, otherwise, in the face of such a large-scale war, Earth's power would probably be nothing more than an ant."
After this incident, he really needs to think carefully about how to enhance Earth's own power.
Otherwise, if one day in the future the Sinnoh Empire, or even the human race, is unable to protect itself, how will Earth protect itself?
After all, the power that you can control yourself is the one that gives you the greatest sense of security.
Otherwise, they'll end up like the Flower Clan.
When bullied by other races, they can only rely on the friendship between the Flower Clan Chief and Yue Changqing, and decide their attitude based on the situation of the Shen'ao Empire.
What about weaker races?
Wouldn't that mean their entire clan would be wiped out?
You need to be strong yourself to forge iron!
only…
How should Earth develop its own power?
The Night Watch and the Exorcists are simply not worthy of being considered significant in the cosmos.
It takes time to develop and gradually become stronger, but that's too slow...
It can only be achieved by relying on the power of the celestial universe.
Find reliable allies for Earth?
Ultimately, it's still an external force. What Earth needs is a power it can completely control, not allies.
With this thought in mind, the system's shielding effect was activated once again. As soon as Su Ye had a thought, a golden light flew out from his body.
Then it slowly grows larger...
"Boss! You've finally let me out! I was suffocating in that space!"
As soon as Big Yellow's three-meter-tall, golden figure appeared, it lay down on the ground, feeling aggrieved and expressing its dissatisfaction.
After Senior Brad mentioned that Big Yellow might attract suppression from the entire Heavenly Demon Clan, Su Ye put it into the system's space, a unique space where it could reside.
There was no other way; it was better to avoid trouble. Although Su Ye wasn't afraid of trouble, with Grandpa GSD around, could he guarantee that those who went out from Earth in the future wouldn't be held responsible for the entire Heavenly Demon Clan's actions?
Looking at Dahuang, Su Ye pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "Dahuang, after this war, you may need to leave my side for a while."
"What?!" Big Yellow's deep golden pupils widened in shock, his expression one of utter astonishment and utter grievance.
The three-meter-tall figure suddenly stood up, almost touching the ceiling of the secret chamber. A childish voice anxiously cried out, "I don't want to leave you, Boss! If the demons dare to cause trouble that day, I'll help you kill them! Boss, look, I've already reached the mid-stage of the eighth realm in just a short while! I'm improving very quickly! I'm not afraid of them!"
As he spoke, the little guy actually released the aura of the mid-stage of the eighth realm, and was even about to advance to the late stage!
It must be said that the bloodline of the Holy Qilin of Light seems to truly exceed the comprehension of the mortal universe.
Su Ye shook his head: "Sit down first, I'm not trying to kick you out."
"No! I don't want to leave the boss's side!"
"sit down!"
It wasn't until Su Ye gave a low shout that Da Huang shrank back down, obediently lying back down on the metal floor, but his expression was still aggrieved and unconvinced.
Su Ye said softly, "Part of the reason I asked you to leave was indeed the trouble caused by the Heavenly Demon Clan, but more importantly, I want you to do something for me, something very important!"
"Important thing?" Big Yellow looked puzzled. "But I really don't want to leave my owner..."
Su Ye said speechlessly, "Let me finish, or I'll deduct your rations!"
"knew…"
Su Ye gently stroked its magnificent mane: "Even if you leave, we will still be connected in spirit, you know? As long as you want, you can return to that space with a thought, which means you will always be by my side."
Call ~
Hearing this, Da Huang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Boss, I understand!"
Nodding, Su Ye's expression grew serious as he continued, "Listen carefully, what I need you to do for me has to succeed; failure is not an option! Are you confident?"
The big yellow dragon narrowed its eyes slightly: "Boss, whatever you say, I'll listen to you!"
Su Ye said, word by word, "In the Myriad Demon Star Domain, the Heavenly Demon Clan values bloodline above all else, and the Demon Lord is supreme! I want you to replace the absolute control of the Heavenly Demon Clan's Crimson Gold Dragon God in the shortest possible time, becoming the new overlord of the Heavenly Demon Clan, completely under your control! Are you truly confident?"
"Yes!" Big Yellow's youthful voice was confident and strong: "As long as the boss asks me to do it, I'll do it even if it kills me!"
It didn't care whether the Crimson Gold Dragon God was the invincible dragon god on the legendary list, or whether it was a special existence among those lizard monsters...
If its master tells it to do this, then the Bright Holy Qilin will trample that dragon god thing under its feet and become the new absolute demon lord of the Heavenly Demon Clan!
"very good!"
With a satisfied smile, Su Ye patiently instructed, "Remember, do not fight head-on. After entering the Myriad Demon Starfield, you must develop your power step by step in a steady and solid manner. Your master will also provide you with energy points. You must also make good use of the infinite resources of the Myriad Demon Starfield to strengthen yourself through both methods..."
Once Da Huang had diligently memorized all of Su Ye's instructions, Su Ye patted its head with a smile: "Alright, go into the space and improve your strength. If you don't have enough energy points, just tell your master. I hope you can reach the ninth realm before we set off!"
After nodding emphatically, Da Huang once again transformed into a ray of golden light and returned to Su Ye's body.
After leaving Da Huang some star stones and two lower-level divine crystals, Su Ye fell into deep thought once again.
At this stage, the only way he can think of to quickly strengthen his power using the resources at his disposal is through Dahuang.
However, he will not let any other opportunities pass him by in the future.
Thinking about it, Su Ye's mind returned to the image of the ancient pavilion.
His mind slid, and he personally witnessed the scene of the Yin Ghost Clan drifting towards the Flower Clan. Then he looked down and looked at his left arm with a puzzled expression.
"Just now, it seemed like the Ghost Hand stirred slightly while watching this scene... Was it just my imagination?"
Just as he was wondering what was going on, to Su Ye's astonishment, his left arm began to move on its own without his consent.
With fingers slightly spread, forming a claw shape, he aimed at the flying Yin Ghost Clan members from a distance…
A strong urge to devour also rushed into Su Ye's mind in an instant.
Swallowing... I want to eat!
It was a sound like it came from hell, utterly terrifying!
However, those Yin Ghosts passed through Su Ye's left arm without making any move.
After all, this was just an illusory way of experiencing the ancient pavilion, not a real visit to the ghostly realm.
"But the will of the Ghost Hand desperately wanted to devour those Yin Ghosts..."
Su Ye forcefully suppressed the ghost hand, his expression thoughtful.
Is it similar to when we were on Earth, the Ghost Hand could devour some ghosts with negative power?
Especially this time, after watching the live stream of the Yin Ghost Clan for less than a minute, the Ghost Hand's intense desire far surpassed that of before.
"System, release the seal on the Ghost Hand. Last time, during the Battle of Fog City, in order to control the puppet Cui Xing, we released 30%... This time, let's unlock 50% first!"
As soon as Su Ye gave the order, even in his illusory live-streaming consciousness state, Su Ye's aura was infected and instantly became evil.
With a crisp clang of chains, a jet-black bracelet with runic chains appeared on his left arm.
Roar--!
With another excited roar, the ghostly hand chains opened, releasing an aura of utter evil...
bang bang bang...
With a cracking sound, the bulging blood vessels burst on the spot, and blood gushed out. The entire slender left arm was gradually covered with swirling blood, and the fingernails on the five fingers were completely stained by the curse.
It became sharp, pitch black and deep, its surface writhing with flowing, crimson blood!
The Ghost Hand...reappears!
An evil will far surpassing the previous one kept assaulting Su Ye's mind, and suddenly!
Besides feeling his strength surge and become extremely violent, Su Ye's body was also pulled along. Even though he couldn't actually touch the green light phantoms of the Yin Ghost Clan, his ghost hand still clenched and opened, making a devouring motion!
Swallow, swallow, swallow, swallow... I want to swallow—!
In his mind, such eerie screams kept echoing. Then, as if reaching a peak, Su Ye's consciousness suddenly exploded, and he found himself in a space filled with ghostly energy, gloomy and extremely evil, just like hell!
A figure slowly emerged, and Su Ye frowned slightly: "This is..."
"System, this is a fragment of the will space that remains in the hands of the ghost. You should be quite familiar with that figure."
Hearing the system's prompt, and as the figure slowly solidified, Su Ye's eyes widened suddenly, and all six of his eyes were activated subconsciously.
"This, this is... Priest Gigg?! The benevolent guide of the Ghost Cry lineage!"
No way!
Within his ghostly hand, there truly remained the power that the one who initially discovered the power of the ghosts and gods, entered the realm of the ghosts and gods, and forcibly borrowed...
That person's will?!
