Chapter 70 Will Old Friends Return?
Chapter 70 Will Old Friends Return?
Ling Yunxiao politely bowed to the four judges, who quickly acknowledged his greeting and took to the air, standing at the four corners of Fengdu City.
With a wave of their hands, four phantom copies of the Book of Life and Death appeared in their hands. As they chanted incantations, a phantom of a long river that ran through the entire underworld quietly appeared upside down in the sky. Countless wronged souls and evil spirits howled and roared in the black river, their voices piercing and loud.
A small stone bridge, exuding antiquity and decay, comes into view, with a high platform standing at its head.
"Come on stage!"
A majestic voice, seemingly emanating from the heavens, resounded through the sky. The four judges simultaneously threw out phantom images of the Book of Life and Death in their hands. Above the void and beneath the Netherworld River, the four books slowly merged into one.
The book and the book in Ling Yunxiao's hand simultaneously rose into the air, landing on the combined phantom of the four Books of Life and Death, their forms gradually overlapping.
The Emperor of Fengdu instinctively walked towards the sky. As the ruler of the underworld, this was the first time he had stepped onto the Viewing Platform.
The moment he stood on the stone platform, a scene appeared before him, showing his past and present lives, visible only to him. As countless scenes flashed by as if in fast forward, the Emperor of Fengdu understood and gently pointed his finger at the stone platform in front of him.
Inside the stone platform, the Great Emperor, who was originally sitting majestically on the Fengdu Imperial Throne wearing a dark ink-gold dragon imperial robe, seemed to sense something and also extended his own finger.
Two Fengdu Emperors, separated by reincarnation and past lives, had their fingertips collide across the light screen on the stone platform.
The next second, a strong wind suddenly rose, and the aura around the Fengdu Emperor in front of everyone surged wildly. Gusts of cold wind blew through the dead silence of Fengdu City, and faint ghostly cries, sometimes shrill, sometimes mournful, and sometimes excited, could be heard in the darkness. As the Fengdu Emperor slowly opened his eyes, the ghostly cries became clearer and clearer.
The four judges bowed to the Emperor of Fengdu once again. Zhong Kui hung the Qingfeng Sword behind Ling Yunxiao. The four figures walked into the depths of the white spider lilies and gradually disappeared as the spider lilies dissipated.
Just as the Emperor of Fengdu landed in front of Ling Yunxiao, before he could even speak, the Primordial Celestial Venerable descended from the clouds and stood excitedly before Ling Yunxiao. Faced with this skill, he could no longer maintain his composure.
"Young friend, you have such abilities, why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"Meet Yuanshi Tianzun."
"Meet Yuanshi Tianzun."
Emperor Fengdu and the others bowed and paid their respects. Ling Yunxiao was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.
"This ability only awakened when I entered the mist; it wasn't that I intentionally concealed it from you, Heavenly Venerable."
As Ling Yunxiao spoke, he glanced at the Book of Life and Death and almost cursed.
"Use Reincarnation to See Home, Past Life and Present Life. Summon the Four Judges, consuming 5 Reincarnation Power, to help the Emperor of Fengdu restore his past life's strength, consuming 80 Reincarnation Power."
Remaining Reincarnation Power: 1749 million points.
5 + 80 = 210, right? If we're talking about unscrupulous merchants, it has to be human books and human pens. Who can outdo you two in being ruthless!
Seemingly sensing Ling Yunxiao's resentment, another line of text appeared on the book.
"Kill the illusory clone of Yama and gain 100 million points of Reincarnation Power."
The remaining Reincarnation Power is 1849 million points.
Ling Yunxiao roughly understood what the Book of Man wanted to express: he had only killed a phantom and a bunch of beast gods, yet he could exchange them for the Great Xia God with full power. This was a worthwhile exchange.
"I wonder how much your ability is being used up, young friend? With your current reserves, how many more times can you use it?"
Upon hearing Ling Yunxiao's words, Yuanshi Tianzun noticed his changing expression and guessed that he was checking the consumption of his power. He was one of the three people who had been morally blackmailed by Ling Yunxiao in the conference room, so how could he not know the demands of Ling Yunxiao's power release?
"Heavenly Venerable, conservatively speaking, I can restore myself to the appearance of five or six people."
The Celestial Venerable nodded with a smile, then turned his gaze to Lin Qiye and his group.
"Greetings, Yuanshi Tianzun. It's been a long time."
"It's been a few days since we parted ways at Kunlun Ruins. Your cultivation level has improved rapidly. Keep going!"
Yuanshi Tianzun smiled as he looked at Lin Qiye. His gaze inadvertently swept over the five people behind Qiye: Cao Yuan, Shen Qingzhu, Canaan, An Qingyu, and Baili Tuming.
The Celestial Venerable paused slightly, staring at Baili Tuming in front of him with surprise in his eyes. He turned to look at Ling Yunxiao in silence for a long time, then looked back at Baili Tuming.
"The grass grows lush and green on the path, but will my old friend return?"
The Celestial Venerable's voice was hollow and shallow; even those around him, with their cultivation levels, could not clearly hear what he was whispering.
After a long silence, the Celestial Venerable let out a barely perceptible sigh.
"The flowers are blooming along the path; you may slowly return home."
After whispering again, he looked up at the Emperor of Fengdu.
"I'll catch up with my friends Qi Ye and Yun Xiao. I'm afraid Yun Xiao also needs your help. I'll go to the main hall to find you later."
Ling Yunxiao had no reason to refuse. Knowing what the Heavenly Venerable was going to do, he immediately led the entire team to follow the Great Emperor of Fengdu into the main hall of Fengdu.
"Emperor of Fengdu, I do indeed have a request, and I hope you can grant it?"
"Oh? Young friend, you just helped me a lot. I haven't had a chance to thank you yet. If you have any difficulties, just let me know. I will definitely do my best to help."
The Emperor of Fengdu stopped and looked at Ling Yunxiao with sincere eyes. At this moment, he and the Heavenly Venerable did not regard Ling Yunxiao as an ordinary human boy at all.
Instead, they regarded him as a supreme god who held the power of the human book and had the same status as them. Even though his cultivation level was still only that of a human who was not strong enough, his abilities were enough to earn the respect of all the gods.
