I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

Chapter 466: Chapter 365: Crossover from the Suis

Can the ending be changed?

Han Zhan wouldn’t say it’s impossible.

But wanting to change this ending, its difficulty is easily imaginable.

”So you were waiting for me here, from the moment I entered the Fruit World, using the controlled Fierce Beast Riders to force me to make a choice, wanting me to ultimately choose the Jiuli camp where Chi You is located.”

”And the series of events that happened after that are more or less related to Sui.”

If what Chi You said is true, then it’s very likely that from the very beginning, Sui had already set its sights on me!

What is the purpose of the Heart Oath we made with it?

Even if the Heart Oath fails, it only means returning the Demon God’s Heart, which doesn’t have much impact on Han Zhan himself.

”Its target is me.”

At this point, the giant face under the water surface suddenly wrinkled.

”The Demon God’s Heart.” Seeing that Han Zhan still didn’t understand, Chi You gave him a clue. ”I used the Demon God’s Heart and the price of a head to seal it in the Blood Pool.”

”Now that the Origin inside the Demon God’s Heart is exhausted, the sealing power has greatly weakened, but as long as the Demon God’s Heart is still in the Blood Pool, it can continue to suppress it, and it cannot escape.”

”But...”

But now the Demon God’s Heart has been brought out of the Blood Pool by myself.

”Shall I return it now?” Han Zhan didn’t expect the game between Chi You and Sui to appear in such a place.

”It’s no use since the moment it completed the Heart Oath and the Demon God’s Heart left the Blood Pool, the rules have been set.”

”The Demon God’s Heart isn’t an ordinary item. The Heart Oath established with it as the medium only has two results: success or failure.”

Success, and the Demon God’s Heart wholly belongs to Han Zhan, and the Jiuli Tribe defends itself, but Sui, suppressed in the Blood Pool, will also break free and leave.

Failure, and the Jiuli Tribe falls, with the Yellow Emperor Tribe controlled by Sui leveling the entire Eastern Yi Continent, along with the Blood Pool. At that time, Sui will also break free.

This is an undeniable open conspiracy.

No matter what choice is made, it is acceptable to Sui.

”I summoned you because I sensed the presence of the Demon God’s Heart in the world and wanted to remind you.”

”The Battle of Zhulu has already begun.”

...

Woo—

In the Yellow River Basin, an ancient horn was blown.

In a previously open and empty village, a wooden door creaked open from the inside.

The stench of decay emanated from the door and wafted skyward.

A rotten right leg stepped out first, followed closely by the entire body.

Empty eye sockets burned with two clusters of pitch-black flames, and the zombie-like figure moved in a particular direction, driven by an unknown power.

His movements gradually became more agile from being stiff and numb.

There were many more such zombies; they didn’t know why they died, nor why they were resurrected, but their numbers kept growing.

Suddenly, all the zombies seemed to sense something and looked towards a specific direction behind them.

There, thick gray fog loomed.

The gray fog rolled in, shrouding the sky entirely. Within the tumbling gray fog, there seemed to be a vague, graceful silhouette.

Shrill, wanton laughter sounded from the gray fog, growing louder and louder.

Wherever the gray fog passed, in the village below, the rotten corpses were swept up into the air by the wind, disassembled into white bones, and countless bones piled into the shape of a throne.

A pair of slender white legs approached the Bone Throne in a catwalk.

The next moment, she sat on the throne, crossing her long legs casually.

Looking up, there was a mismatch between the slender white legs and the bloated fat flesh, nearly filling the entire Bone Throne.

On the bloated fat was a beautiful woman’s head, but it had four different faces corresponding to joy, anger, sadness, and happiness.

When she spoke, four different voices sounded simultaneously, causing the entire sky to buzz.

”The time is ripe; it’s our turn to take the stage.”

...

In the filthy yellow river,

a long black silhouette emerged from the riverbed across thousands of miles.

With a turn, the entire river — once flowing downstream — suddenly stopped, and the high, swirling waters mixed with silt surged on both banks, causing catastrophic floods.

As the silt receded, the river drained, revealing the red scales inside.

The red scales, opening and closing with each breath, concealed muscles imbued with dreadful power, and the gigantic body began to undulate forward.

It was a dragon!

The dragon’s body was encased in scales, reflecting a cold light under the sun. Its sinuous form stretched endlessly beyond sight.

It stopped, its forebody rising upright, gazing through overlapping clouds at a distant, faintly visible fortress.

The white dragon whiskers swayed effortlessly to both sides, and in its scarlet vertical pupils, a ferocious gleam flashed.

Simultaneously, the red scales expanded again, and on each scale, sinister eyes appeared, flickering into view.

...

Above the nine heavens.

A white-robed figure hung suspended among the clouds, gently swaying with the breeze.

When the sonorous horn sounded, its echoes even reached the nine heavens.

The head, which had been bowed, slowly lifted, and through flowing locks of hair, a woman’s beautiful visage became visible.

Everything seemed perfectly normal.

If it weren’t for the fact that from the back of her neck, eight other different heads were drawn upwards.

The eight heads shared the same sublime beauty as the woman, like kites appearing and disappearing in the high cloud seas.

They scrambled, impatient and eager, dragging the white figure downwards.

...

”Did you see it?”

The visions that had manifested on the water’s surface vanished in silence.

In the palace, Chi You, with a giant face-like appearance, spoke faintly.

”All the Sui have started moving.”

”From the moment the Demon God’s Heart left the Blood Pool, they sensed it just like I did and reacted simultaneously.”

”Great Chief, what should we do? Should we contact other chieftains?” Li Wu still had the scene he saw on the water earlier lingering in his mind, and he swallowed hard.

Even though he had made a breakthrough and ascended, becoming a Great Power of the Jiuli Race, facing such eerie and indescribable entities caused a significant mental impact.

”Contact other chieftains? No, there are no other chieftains.”

”No other chieftains?!” Li Wu’s voice suddenly grew much louder.

”What I showed you were images that occurred after you left the Blood Pool and synced in time, a period has since passed.”

”All chieftains and Great Powers of the Jiuli Race have been drawn into the vortex of war.”

”You didn’t know simply because you had just ascended to a Great Power and hadn’t accessed this information yet.”

Is this what it means for the sky to fall, and the tall ones hold it up first?

No wonder the rewards were so generous, they were waiting for this all along.

Before Li Wu could finish his thoughts, Chi You’s voice echoed again:

”I need you to head to the target location immediately and hold the Jiuli.”
