Chapter 489: Donghuang Taiyi

Ya Zi had a hidden agenda!

Jiang Feng could not verify if it was really as Ya Zi had said, that it owed Donghuang Taiyi a favor and was willingly guarding the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Planet.

But he knew that Ya Zi’s final quest was extremely suspicious

Perhaps, Ya Zi was not repaying Donghuang Taiyi’s kindness. Rather, it was sealed here by Donghuang Taiyi and was forced to agree to do all of Donghuang Taiyi’s request and to test the new Inheritor of the s.h.i.+fters.

If the latter was true, him breaking the stone tablet would bring ruin to them all.

Ya Zi Will Reciprocate, repaying kindness with kindness, violence with violence. If Donghuang Taiyi sealed it here, then Ya Zi would be filled with hatred and vengeance.

Once it had been released, its power as a Primal Divine Beast could easily destroy the Ancient City of the s.h.i.+fter Emperor that he had built.

While he could not see Ya Zi’s stats, he knew that Ya Zi’s power would not be low and it was not something that he could yet compete with.

“The stone table was left behind by Donghuang Taiyi. I heard that it is a Testing Tablet and that it could test one’s potential. Only those with enough potential can break it. You can do it, I believe in you!” Ya Zi quickly explained as he looked at Jiang Feng slowly walking toward the Stone Tablet.

Jiang Feng walked toward the Stone Tablet. He stood directly in front of it and began to study the stone tablet in front of him.

‘Hm?’

After watching the stone tablet for a while, he suddenly noticed something and he approached the stone tablet.

The moment that he was close to the stone tablet, he could sense a voice calling for him.

He was not sure why, but he touched the stone tablet in front of him without thinking twice.

Whoos.h.!.+

The moment that he touched the stone tablet, he felt dazed. And in the next moment, he had appeared in a dimension that was entirely white.

And there was another person within the white dimension.

He had on a crown with a black robe marked with the Tripedal Golden Crow. Even as he stood there, he could feel difficulty in breathing, and there was an aura that was forced upon him to the point where he found it difficult to stand up, forcing him to bow in wors.h.i.+p.

“The s.h.i.+fter Emperor Donghuang!” The moment that he saw the man, Jiang Feng knew who he was. It was indeed the s.h.i.+fter Emperor Donghuang.

That was because the statue in the s.h.i.+fter Ruins was Donghuang Taiyi in his humanoid form, and not in his Tripedal Golden Crow form.

Donghuang Taiyi scanned Jiang Feng and then let out a satisfied smile as he said, “Not bad. You can still stand in front of me and directly call out my name. It means that you have quite the power and is also proof that you have the potential to fulfill your ambition.”

Jiang Feng smiled and said, “You have given me too much praise. I would like to ask, why would you appear here?”

Donghuang Taiyi then said, “That is because you have touched the stone tablet. Before my death, I have retained a duplicate here. Any new s.h.i.+fter Emperor that has touched the stone tablet would appear within the dimension of this Stone Tablet to see me. The reason that I did this was to be on guard against Ya Zi.”

“Guard against Ya Zi?”

Dong Huang Taiyi then explained, “Ya Zi is a Primal Monster. I met it in the Northern Sea during the Great Divine-Infernal War ten thousand years ago. Despite being one of the ten sons of the Nine-Clawed Divine Dragon, It did not look like a dragon at all due to its hideous appearance and it was rejected. The Nine-Clawed Divine Dragon wanted to kill it, but I saved it. In order to repay my kindness, it agreed to protect the s.h.i.+fters’ Ruins forever.”

“When I am alive, it would naturally have to keep its promise. But now that I am dead, the promise could not bind it here. The only thing that could bind it is this stone tablet. That was because it and I had a promise. As long as this stone tablet exists, it cannot leave the Sacred Pool. Therefore, you must not be enticed by it!” After hearing Donghuang Taiyi’s explanation, Jiang Feng fully understood what happened.

When Donghuang was alive, he had helped Ya Zi, and Ya Zi was bound by principle to repay that kindness and to protect the s.h.i.+fters’ Ruins.

But perhaps Donghuang knew that his time would come to an end, he had once again reached an agreement with Ya Zi regarding the Stone Tablet. Once the stone tablet had been destroyed, there would be nothing that could bind it ever again and it would be free.

Because Donghuang Taiyi had plotted against it, it would have its vengeance when the time came, and the s.h.i.+fters would be in trouble.

That was why Donghuang Taiyi did it before he died.

But what made Jiang Feng confused was if he did not agree to Ya Zi, how could he receive the Second Stage of his inheritance? How would he receive all the treasures left behind by Donghuang Taiyi?

Out of options, he asked Donghuang Taiyi about it.

With a smile, Donghuang Taiyi said, “I never thought that Ya Zi would have that kind of motive. I indeed had it test you, but the content of it was not that difficult. The quest was only to restore life within the s.h.i.+fters’ Ruins. But it seems that it indeed wanted to deal with us s.h.i.+fters. To think that it would try to get its claws on the Lianyao Flask… But, no matter. The things that you need are here.”

With that, Donghuang Taiyi waved his hand and several items appeared within the dimension.

“I will disappear soon, but before I disappear, I would like to ask for your help.”

Jiang Feng was surprised as he thought to himself, ‘THE Donghuang Taiyi? Asking for my help?’

Donghuang Taiyi then said, “In truth, I have an older brother. His name is Dijun, and he is sealed underneath Dragonquarry’s Greater Leiyin Temple. If you are able to, please save him for my sake. Perhaps, he could even give you some help!” With that, Donghuang Taiyi had disappeared.

‘Dijun?’

‘I thought that he didn’t exist within the History of the Divine Dominion. But it seems that I’m wrong.’

‘If Dijun is still alive, his powers would be immense. If I have the chance, I must save him. And then, I would have a greater chance in winning the Great Divine-Infernal War,’ Jiang Feng thought to himself, and then looked at the five items that Donghuang Taiyi had left for him.

The five items were a flag, a Donghuang Bell fragment, a bottle of Sacred Blood, a blood bead, and a tablet.

The s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Flag: Divine Level Item.

Introduction: The s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Flag was originally created together by Donghuang Taiyi and Dijun. The two of them would take control of one flag each. When the two flags are fused, it would become a Sacred Level item. As the symbol of the s.h.i.+fters, it could be used to command some of the s.h.i.+fters.

…

Blood Bead of the Second Stage of the Inheritor of the s.h.i.+fters: When consumed by the Inheritor of the s.h.i.+fters, he or she would inherit the Second Stage of the s.h.i.+fters’ Inheritance.

Order of the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Planet: The order tablet to manage the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Planet.

Looking at the stats of the five items in front of him, Jiang Feng could not stop smiling.

Ever since he had arrived on Silvermoon from the Divine Dominion Continent, he had thought that the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Flag had become completely useless. He did not expect the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Flag to be incomplete, and he needed to fuse it with another s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Flag for it to be completed. It would then become a Sacred Artifact. That meant that he could still use it on Silvermoon.

Other than the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Flag, there was also the Blood Bead.

With the Blood Bead, his power would no doubt be greatly increased.

And there was nothing else he could say about the Order of the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Planet. It was the item that he needed the most to restore life on the s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Planet.

“I wonder how it feels to reach the Second Stage. Let me try!” Jiang Feng mumbled and took the Blood Bead.

Looking at the scarlet Blood Bead in his hand, he looked at it infatuatedly before he threw it into his mouth.

Bang!

The moment that the Blood Bead entered his mouth, it exploded into a myriad of “blood snakes,” drilling straight into his internal organs.

“Ah…”

Slowly, pain worse than death began to spread through his entire body.
