Chapter 109 Cough, Cough, Cough…

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Thunder ran rampant, then plunged into the earth.

A moment later, a hand burst out of a deep pit, followed by the body pulling itself up.

"...So fierce..."

Blood trickled from the corner of Wei Yuan's mouth, his face pale. He had taken a blow from a Golden Crow at its current realm head-on. Even though his body was tempered by thunder and fire, and had extremely strong resistance to flames and yang energy, his internal organs still felt like they were being burned, causing him immense pain.

He was injured, and seriously so.

Wei Yuan instantly understood his current physical condition. Dayi, behind him, questioned, "How are you?"

"I'm fine, not going to die." Wei Yuan spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, supporting himself as he climbed to his feet.

Dayi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, puzzled, he said, "Strange... you defended, but you still couldn't withstand it... Did He go all out to kill you? But if that's the case, why did He stop chasing after just one move?"

"No, you're wrong."

Wei Yuan, carrying Dayi on his back, said, "I didn't defend at all."

Dayi: "..............."

My apologies, I was naive.

I actually thought someone with your personality would defend...

The refined youth was speechless.

Wei Yuan grinned and said, "Defending wouldn't have been much better. It's better to give Him a good strike, enough to make Him hurt a little. Dayi, how are you doing? Are you seriously injured?"

"I'm alright."

Wei Yuan carried Dayi, moving quickly, and asked, "Has your True Spirit recovered?"

"It's recovered a bit."

Wei Yuan's lips curled up. "That's good."

"Haha, when we find our mom, cough cough, I mean, Nuwa, Nuwa..."

"No matter the cost, we'll get her to mold a body for you. Then you can regain your fighting strength."

Wei Yuan kept talking to keep Dayi's True Spirit and soul focused.

He could feel that although Dayi's True Spirit had transformed from false to true, it was still not complete and was in an extremely weak state. He needed to take it back. He wondered if forcing Dayi to devour all the leaves of the soul-nurturing wood in the museum would help him recover.

Speaking of which, is Dayi a vegetarian?

If that doesn't work, Yuanjue and I can find a way to cook the soul-nurturing wood into a dish, right?

For example, picking the tender buds, blanching them to remove the bitterness, then squeezing them tightly, mixing them with cooked vermicelli, scrambled eggs, and chopped dried tofu to make a filling, then pouring a spoonful of fragrant sesame oil inside, and wrapping them into dumplings.

Then, prepare a dipping sauce that's so delicious that even a shoe pad would taste good dipped in it, and force Dayi to swallow it.

Must put my culinary skills to good use.

What a pity it would be to waste these cooking skills.

Wei Yuan was thinking of ways to make Dayi eat grass when he got home.

Dayi was silent for a long time, then said, "You really shouldn't have exchanged Chang Xi and me back. Now, relying on just the two of us, it won't be easy to return to the human world from the heavily guarded Great Wilderness Rift. Or do you, Wei Yuan, actually have a plan?"

"Plan? Nope!"

Wei Yuan answered cheerfully.

Dayi's lips twitched.

...As expected of you.

Wei Yuan, carrying Dayi on his back, said, "I will return alive, and so will you. I haven't thought about so many things. No matter what, I can't just leave you there, can I?"

Dayi was silent, and suddenly thought of what Zhu Jiuyin had said in the dream: people like Xuanyuan weren't as brave as Chi You, not as strategic as the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, not as good at divination as Feng Hou, and not even as strong as Li Mu.

But why did the heroes of an era gather around him?

Zhu Jiuyin said that what the era needed most was someone who could break through the darkness without regard for anything. He had previously thought Zhu Jiuyin was just being sarcastic, but Dayi now understood that while those outstanding people could discern the situation, state the advantages and disadvantages, and make appropriate choices, when you were trapped in darkness, only those people would break through the darkness and reach out their hands, gathering everyone in the era, not because of intelligence, strategy, or even bravery, but because of that lonely courage in the face of despair.

It was the flame of light that broke through the darkness.

In the end, you see things more clearly than I do, Zhu Jiuyin...

Wei Yuan said, "By the way, Dayi, where did your arrows come from?"

"Hmm? Why are you asking that?"

Dayi said, "The one who gave me the arrows made an agreement with me, requiring me to swear an oath not to reveal his identity."

An oath not to reveal his identity...

For some reason, Wei Yuan suddenly thought of Fuxi, who had signed an oath with the Mountain God of Buzhou.

He said, "...Is it Fuxi?"

"Hmm?!"

Dayi was slightly surprised.

Wei Yuan felt a headache. He was silent for a moment, then said, "Zhu Jiuyin said that three hundred years after the Heaven-Mending event, Fuxi went to the outer seas of the Age of Gods, and has never returned since. Zhu Jiuyin's position is enough to observe the Nine Netherworlds and the human world, and his words are extremely credible..."

"If Fuxi appeared in the Great Wilderness or the Three Realms during this period."

"Zhu Jiuyin couldn't have failed to notice."

After Wei Yuan finished speaking, Dayi's mind was shaken, and he and Wei Yuan both fell into an unspeakable silence. Both of them realized the problem here. Either Fuxi even used a method to avoid Zhu Jiuyin, one of the top ten experts, and came to the human world, giving Dayi the Sun-Shooting Arrows.

This represented the secret of the ten suns in the sky, representing that the mastermind behind Dayi Shooting the Nine Suns was Fuxi.

On the other hand, if it wasn't Fuxi.

Then it meant that there was some kind of existence with the strength and foundation to transform into Fuxi entering the game.

A sense of oppression arose in the hearts of Wei Yuan and Dayi, and Dayi opened his mouth and suddenly said:

"That tenth arrow, I have already used it... If the arrow really has a problem."

Wei Yuan immediately realized this.

If the arrow really had a problem.

Then Dayi's use of the arrow was almost equivalent to sending a signal to the mastermind on the other side, whether it was Fuxi, or someone with a foundation to impersonate Fuxi, almost clearly writing on his face that Dayi is back, come and use me.

Wei Yuan's lips twitched and said, "It doesn't matter."

"Although our brains are not as good as those old... old guys."

"But we have brains on our side now, and multiple brains. When the time comes, we will directly hand this mess over to Zhu Jiuyin and A-Liang, and then tell them that this is an assessment to see who is better..."

Museum Curator Wei skillfully passed the buck, along with using the provoking skill.

Dayi was shocked: "With such a simple statement, will they fall for it?"

Wei Yuan was silent.

Wei Yuan thought for a moment: "Probably..."

"After all, although the tactic of provocation is simple."

"But it's especially effective."

Dayi couldn't help but laugh.

The two ran, but soon, Wei Yuan slowly realized that something was wrong. He now had the speed of thunder and fire, which was similar to the natural divine power attached to his current physique, but at this speed, the starry sky's constellations remained constant, as if the stars were rotating and changing around it as the center.

Wei Yuan finally realized the extreme danger.

Dayi's expression changed drastically.

"...Master."

Wei Yuan's pupils shrank, and he suddenly looked up. In front of him, blue stones were jagged, and the sound of a melodious flute rang out. A young man stood calmly, put down the flute in his hand, turned it around a few times in his palm, put his right hand behind his back, his eyes were quiet, and he looked at Wei Yuan.

So the constellations, the myriad phenomena, all seemed to stop in an instant.

Wei Yuan stopped, the world made him stop.

Two words squeezed out from between his teeth.

"Di Jun..."

The number one combat power in the Age of Gods, the unparalleled strongest in the Three Realms and Eight Desolations.

"Wei Yuan, I have an impression of you."

Di Jun's voice was calm, "I was watching when you took Li Er away from the Zhou capital."

Wei Yuan's lips twitched with difficulty, and he suddenly had an idea, directly sending Dayi, who had lost his mind, into the Jade Pool. He exhaled a mouthful of foul air, looked at the Emperor in front of him, and said, "Since the Queen Mother of the West can travel in the human world, and you have a similar status and even stronger strength, you shouldn't be a shut-in."

"Calling you Di Jun doesn't seem very polite. I wonder, what is your name in the human world..."

The Emperor of the Great Wilderness in front of him put his right hand behind his back, thought for a moment, and said:

"When I traveled in the human world, I was mostly in the land of Chu."

"I went by the alias Taiyi."

"I wonder if you've heard of it in this era..."

Crap...

Wei Yuan's forehead twitched.

The strongest god in the Chu land of China, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, is your alias?!

And at this time, even someone as slow as Wei Yuan finally understood what the situation in the Age of Gods reflected in the human world was—

Eastern Emperor.

Queen Mother of the West.

If the Eastern Emperor Taiyi and the Eastern Duke were integrated together, then it would represent that one was the Eastern Duke and the other was the Queen Mother of the West. These two's origins in the legends of the Chinese Gods happened to represent a certain confrontation between the Great Wilderness and Kunlun.

And the human king who rose up after that was the First Emperor.

But at that time, the Queen Mother of the West and Di Jun were no longer in the human world.

Wei Yuan's fingers loosened, and then, under the Emperor's slightly surprised gaze, he actually forcibly straightened his back inch by inch, resisting the oppression of the constellations, clenched his fingers, lightning flashed in his eyes, and said, "Then, time is tight, I wonder what Taiyi, you're stopping me for?"

Di Jun said, "You took Chang Xi away."

Ah, this...

Wei Yuan suddenly felt a burst of guilt.

Emperor Jun tapped the jade flute lightly and said in a calm tone, "And when I was in seclusion, you slaughtered the gods of my Great Wilderness and broke through the rituals of the Great Wilderness several times, doing these big things. Don't tell me, Wei Yuan, that you think you have a peaceful relationship with my Great Wilderness?"

Wei Yuan replied, "Of course not..."

The Heavenly Emperor said calmly, "One move, if you can withstand one move from me and not die, you can leave."

In an instant, a true and unwavering killing intent, an boundless and violent sense of oppression fell, and Wei Yuan grunted. He only felt that the heavens and the earth and all the phenomena were about to fall, but he gritted his teeth and replied, "...Okay!"

His fingers slowly opened, then raised inch by inch, the sound of bones cracking. Even his aura made Wei Yuan's body suppressed, but he clenched his fingers violently.

A clear sword cry erupted.

Ye Ming, lurking in the dark, was surprised:

Actually...

Taking the initiative to attack?

In the void, thunder and flames ran rampant, turning into a sword.

Wei Yuan shouted in a low voice, and then actually withstood the Heavenly Emperor's aura, and suddenly stepped forward, his face pale, blood flowing from his mouth, but he still quickly ran forward. As if he was oppressed by the heavens and the earth and the myriad phenomena, his aura became more and more condensed and violent, and finally his eyes widened angrily, and the sword in his palm was delivered.

Under Di Jun's majestic oppression, Wei Yuan's energy, qi, and spirit were forced to the peak.

A sword was delivered, an unprecedented peak.

The sword light actually evolved into fireworks and the mortal world, and then the myriad phenomena of the mortal world continued to spread, vaguely appearing the scenery of Kunlun. Being born and entering the world were instantly united, reaching a new realm that he had never reached in the past, but Ye Ming had to sigh regretfully.

Not enough...

This move is only similar to the current Kaiming Sword Master.

But the Kaiming Sword Master's foundation is even more majestic than Wei Yuan's at this moment.

The Kaiming Sword Master's end was a fatal blow.

This human race in front of him, I'm afraid...

The jade flute in Di Jun's hand was raised, as if the previous scene was repeated. As the undisputed strongest individual in the Three Realms and Eight Desolations, he shattered Wei Yuan's sword light, and then the jade flute pointed at the center of Wei Yuan's eyebrows. This was a real, head-on confrontation with the number one in the world.

This is... the power that killed Yu back then...

Wei Yuan gritted his teeth and glared at this attack.

An unprecedented dead end!

No one can help, it is a desperate situation.

Suddenly, a stream of light suddenly fell from the sky, like annihilation. Di Jun's jade flute was raised, and the light followed this annihilation. Then, this king of the Great Wilderness stopped his movements, did not continue to attack, and slowly raised his eyes, saying, "Queen Mother of the West..."

!!!

His aura suddenly retracted, Wei Yuan clutched his chest, half-kneeling on the ground, gritting his teeth and supporting himself, refusing to fall.

The sound of dragon roars and tiger howls rang out.

Wearing a rainbow as clothes and the wind as a horse, the lords of the clouds came down one after another.

The tigers played the zither and the phoenixes returned in their carriages, and the immortals were lined up like hemp.

The aura of the master of Kunlun made even Wei Yuan lose his mind.

A figure wearing a feathered coat landed in front of Wei Yuan, blocking Di Jun and protecting him. Wei Yuan raised his eyes, and then his pupils shrank, and he whispered in disbelief, "Jue..."

Di Jun said, "The new generation of the Western Queen, what are you doing in my Great Wilderness?"

The girl replied, "I came to the Great Wilderness."

"To take him home."
