1057 Battle of Darkness (I)

The Dao Opening Sect will not allow anything to happen to the Yu Clan, but they still need to be able to hold their weight. Additionally, after their departure, something like this patent was enough to cause a fallout between these two factions, so w.a.n.g Wei wanted to be prepared.

"Now I feel left out," said w.a.n.g Chang; these people were planning their reign as Heavenly Emperor, which made him realize he might be the only non-Heavenly Emperor in the family. And even if he becomes one, who knows how long in the future.

w.a.n.g Tian placed his hands on his father's shoulder and gave him more drinks. "Drown your sorrow with the wine." w.a.n.g Chang wanted to beat his son; what kind of weird method of rea.s.surance was this?

"What? Can't hold your liquor, old man?"

w.a.n.g Chang saw the veins popping on his forehead. "Okay, let's see who can't drink."

"That's more like it," said w.a.n.g Tian. "Come on, son. Let's compete."

"I'm good," replied w.a.n.g Wei while giving him hints with his eyes. Today was about his mother. If these idiots get too drunk, who knows what they will do and say and possibly ruin things? Sadly, they were already too drunk to notice or realize.

"You're boring," said w.a.n.g Tian before drinking with his father. w.a.n.g Wei looked at his mother, "I will stop them in time."

"Don't worry about it; let them enjoy themselves. After all, you will only share your secret staff without reservation on such rare occasions." Yu Yan did not mind as she also enjoyed her drinks at a more moderate pace.

"It's been a while since we got together and truly relaxed," she continued. "We have been so busy with our lives and goals. I missed the old days."

"I do, too," nodded w.a.n.g Wei.

"When do you think we will truly have peace and tranquility?" asked Yu Yan.

"Probably after truly reaching beyond the pinnacle of this universe," replied w.a.n.g Wei. "But even then, we might have different troubles."

"A sad truth, but a truth nonetheless," sighed Yu Yan.

"I sense you're a little sad. Is it because we can't go back to the past?"

"That's not it," replied Yu Yan. "I missed my mother and father. I always dreamt they would see the day I became an Emperor. It's unfortunate."

"I can help you see them," said w.a.n.g Wei. "I can summon a projection from the River of Time, a projection from the time before their death. Or better yet, I can find their reincarnation and help them recuperate their past self memories."

Yu Yan thought for a few seconds, "Forget it. Life is never perfect, so I'll accept the fact they will never see the current me."

"Well, it's your choice," replied w.a.n.g Wei, who was slightly glad he would not have to see that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Yu Yong. No matter how long has pa.s.sed, he will never forget him for taking away his grandmother.

"It's been so long, haven't you forgotten and forgiven?" asked Yu Yan.

"Never," replied w.a.n.g Wei calmly.

"I've never seen this petty side of you."

"It's there but rarely comes out," replied w.a.n.g Wei, and Yu Yan could only shake her head. They changed the topic until a few minutes later, w.a.n.g Chang stumbled in their direction.

"Boy...how...is the preparation...for my battle...going?"

"I found the Nine Suns Emperor, but that's all I know so far," replied w.a.n.g Wei. The talisman he gave Yang Guowei indicated he had found his father, but no more information could be sent, given the distance between them. Until the next exchange with the Rebellion, he won't know much.

"So, it's near," slurred w.a.n.g Chang. "It seems I need to step up my training." He walked away to continue drinking. The party continued for a few days, and w.a.n.g Tian and w.a.n.g Chang drank so much that they lost their vision for more than a week afterward.

When the party finished, Yu Yan sent a challenge to Ao Shen, even before preaching to the world.

Void Battlefield:

The proud dragon appeared in this empty, all-white s.p.a.ce. He looked at the woman opposite him and said, "Your majesty, and I'm giving you that level of respect simply because of your son - do you want to use me as a stepping stone?"

"You're overthinking things," Yu Yan replied calmly. "We have the same Dao, so I thought our first battle would be best against each other. I think it would be a great learning experience, don't you think so?"

Ao Shen looked intently at her before his brow finally relaxed. "You have a point. Then, let's begin." He immediately activated his [Awakening], which took the form of black dragon-theme armor around his body. His strength increased by 3%, followed by 2% of his Dao Will, 5% for Will Manifestation, 2% for his flesh, and 3% for a source technique for his Chaos Bloodline. His Proving Dao Artifact had not been refined yet, and his soul was still ordinary, so this was the extent of his power.

Yu Yan followed in his footsteps. Her [Awakening] manifested as two pairs of dark wings floating behind her. However, the boost she received was only 2%, and her Dao Will was also 2%, Will Manifestation was 3%, the fleshly body was another 3%, and 5% for Proving Dao Artifact (her son gave her all the resources needed for an Ultimate Artifact).

As Yu Yan felt the power coursing through her veins, she was satisfied-especially knowing she still had tremendous room for growth. She must still refine a Darkness Emperor Soul and cultivate the [Force Control Skill] to the highest level. Once she accomplishes these two things, her strength will rise another 2-fold. Not to mention the growth of her fleshy body, Dao Will, and Will manifestation.

"Let's begin," said Yu Yan:

[World of Darkness]

A pure, raw, and untainted blackness soon replaced the power of void in this infinite battlefield.

"Affecting my senses with darkness? Aren't you underestimating me too much?" sneered Ao Shen as he used his power to see through this darkness.

"Little dragon," said a voice that echoed through the darkness; it seemed to originate simultaneously everywhere and at one specific point. "The darkness is merely a pa.s.sing point in your life; your true pa.s.sion and desire is chaos. So, how could you deal with someone who was raised by it, molded by it, and reveled in all its intricacies?"

"Molded by darkness? You were a housewife all your life, but you dare make such a bold claim?" Ao Shen opened his mouth to fire a powerful beam that would collapse this world of darkness.

Unfortunately, his effort was futile. A powerful force hit him in the face, bending the armor on his face before sending him flying away, and before he reached far, he received thousands of attacks.

[a.s.similation]

Ao Shen reacted swiftly as he used his own Darkness Grand Dao Source to a.s.similate with his opponent, trying to use her power for his.

"My a.n.a.lysis of you was correct, little dragon," Yu Yan's voice echoed. "Don't you know there are different kinds of darkness?"

Ao Shen soon knew the meaning of these words. As he a.s.similated with her darkness, his soul was immediately a.s.saulted by what he could only describe as the darkness of darkness. Darkness, at its essence, is only the absence of light, but other things are a.s.sociated with it: sins, negative emotions, fears, and myriad other things.

He then realized his opponent's darkness was divided into two parts: the purest part was used to isolate all his senses, while the other aspect served as a trap for when he tried to a.s.similate.

'She completely read me,' thought Ao Shen as he used his Dao Will and Will Manifestation to protect his soul and spirit. 'She immediately saw how my usage of Darkness was not as pure as her because of my Chaos Bloodline and used that against me.'

[Darkness Swallow]

Ao Shen's chest emanated a powerful devouring power, allowing him to swallow or devour his opponent's World of Darkness swiftly.

"It seems I have to take this battle more seriously," he commented, looking her in the eyes.

"That is the bare minimum respect you should have shown me as an opponent. Sadly, you only saw the mother of the Heavenly Emperor before you."

"You're right, and I apologize for that." Ao Shen directly acknowledged his mistake. He had been so caught up in the world's politics that he had made such an obvious blunder. Since she's an opponent of equal strength, he should not have any reservations and go all out.

Without hesitation, he transformed into a colossal dragon covered in black armor.

"Now, I can use all my strength," he declared boldly.

"You're not the only one with a n.o.ble bloodline," reb.u.t.ted Yu Yan before activating her Pseudo Human FiendG.o.d Bloodline(still needs to reach 11th revolution), and her body grew to the same size as Ao Shen, along with tattoos on her right arms that resembled tribal markings.

"This fight might be more interesting than I originally thought," commented Ao Shen.

"I feel the same."
