Legend of Swordsman

The elders in the Elder Palace were of mediocre strength, with only three supreme-peak experts resurrected, and their consumption of the Origin Source of the Qishen Temple was not significant.

However, these Divine Generals were ultimate Emperors!

Resurrecting one of them consumed more Origin Source than a thousand ordinary supreme-peak beings.

”Lord Yun Zhong, how did you come to this place?” Dragon God’s expression was somewhat embarrassed.

This was the land where the Dark King perished. Back when they were cannon fodder for the Qishen Temple, it was understandable. But now, bringing a few heirs to this place, what was the purpose?

Dragon God never liked the Qishen Temple. In ancient times, they had to handle all the dirty work for the Qishen Temple.

The three Divine Masters of the core level and the disciples of the Qishen were spared from doing anything and enjoyed everything.

Yun Zhong Jun’s brows slightly furrowed. He already couldn’t stand this hybrid species—creatures born of dragons and humans—and now they dared to question him?

He was one of the 18 Divine Generals. In ancient times, even the Universe Masters had to give him face.

”I called you Dragon God as a sign of respect. If it weren’t for these little guys here, I would courteously address you as a mere waste!” Yun Zhong Jun was unabashedly arrogant.

Then he revealed a smile and apologized, ”Sorry, I accidentally blurted out your real name!”

”Hahaha!”

Jian Wushuang and the other two trembled in the corner. These two seemed to be at odds. Could they suddenly start fighting?

Dragon God’s face turned ashen.

Lord Yun Zhong, enjoying the sight of his opponent’s anger, spoke, ”By the way, the Dark King has been dead for so many years, and the treasures here should not go to waste. I came this time to have you open this place and make it one of the treasuries of the Qishen Temple. Hand over the key!”

Yun Zhong was high and mighty, showing no intention of negotiation. It was a complete command.

In ancient times, the Dark King was just a peripheral figure under the Qishen. The core figures were those who joined the Qishen in the beginning.

Later, when the Qishen reached its peak, many sought refuge, including the Dark King.

Back then, the status of Divine Generals like Yun Zhong soared, naturally looking down on those Universe Masters who joined later.

If their strength was sufficient, it was acceptable; otherwise, the weak had even less say.

Among the Universe Masters, there were the strong and the weak, just like the Emperors, ranging from the tier 1 to 6, and then to supreme-peak.

The divisions were clear.

”You seek death!” Dragon God couldn’t bear it any longer and angrily shouted.

Insulting him was one thing, but daring to insult his master, the Dark King.

Even if the opponent was a Divine General, he would take action.

Yun Zhong had no intention of negotiating with the other party. What he wanted was for the other party to make the first move, and then he could take action to gracefully take over this Dao Arena.

”Arrogant, a b*stard, dares to attack me?!” Yun Zhong lightly shook the cane in his hand, directly dispelling the Dragon God’s methods.

Then, a dragon roar that shook the heavens and earth resounded. Dragon God’s figure transformed into its true form, a huge Candle Dragon, with two feet, two hands, and a pair of sky-shrouding wings.

Dragon God above the treasure hall was unconcerned, even revealing a hint of disdain.

Dragon God’s strength was indeed impressive, and he possessed a top-notch divine body, even stronger than the former Bai Junwang.

However, Yun Zhong was still an Ultimate Emperor.

That cane, invisible to others, but Jian Wushuang could see, definitely surpassed the power of Eternal Treasures, likely being a Universe Treasure.

The position of the 18 Divine Generals was lofty, and Qishen was a great master of refining treasures.

Universe treasures were plentiful, and it was normal to give them to one’s core subordinates.

An Ultimate Emperor, coupled with a Universe Treasure, the power emanating from him made people feel a sense of suffocation.

”Insect!”

Yun Zhong made a move again, this time not as casual as the last, but truly unleashed all his strength.

Although disdainful of Dragon God, his strength was undeniable, not to be considered weak.

Crack!

Behind Yun Zhong, a huge Dao Image appeared, directly seizing Dragon God’s neck, rendering him motionless.

”Daring to attack the Divine General of Qishen Temple, on behalf of Lord Zhen Ling, I shall send you to the Second Prison!”

Splash!

Another crack in space appeared, and this time, Wu Zuo emerged from it.

”Brother Wu Zuo, I’ll trouble you!” Yun Zhong smiled.

The prisons of Qishen Temple were located at the very bottom of the God’s Tomb and were not accessible to ordinary people. Those with weak strength couldn’t even enter.

The four Temple Masters all had their own tasks, and others were also uneasy. Some lacked the strength, and if they didn’t send others in, they might end up sending themselves.

Therefore, only Wu Zuo could handle such matters.

”Leave it to me!”

Wu Zuo took out a wind bag, directly sucking Dragon God into it. Then, turning to Jian Wushuang, who was also present, he said to Yun Zhong, ”Brother Yun, this little guy Jian Wushuang and I have some fate. Please take care of him.”

”Rest assured!” Yun Zhong’s eyes turned, and he agreed verbally.

”Then I’ll take my leave!” Wu Zuo clasped his fists, then nodded at Jian Wushuang.

Jian Wushuang was also pleasantly surprised, hastily bowing to express his gratitude.

He didn’t expect Wu Zuo to give him such face.

He, however, was unaware that Wu Zuo had long learned about Jian Wushuang’s identity from Zhen Ling. One of the most dazzling figures in this era, of course, deserved to be well acquainted with.

In the future, Jian Wushuang might become one of the mighty figures of the Qishen Temple.

Take, for example, on the Grave God Mountain, among the Ultimate Emperors who were relatively eye-catching, only Hu Qing stood out, surpassing many of the same level.

The Dao Lord who practiced the Light Dao on that mountain has yet to break through, just like Jian Wushuang.

If Jian Wushuang surpasses him as well...

Among the same batch, the three Ultimate Emperors who have perfectly integrated their Daos will undoubtedly be the most dazzling figures in the future.

At present, Hu Qing is considered to be at the forefront among the same batch.

Above him is Shang, because he is already an Ultimate Emperor, so he is not on the same level as them.

After all, Shang has created his own universe secret technique, and his grasp of becoming the Universe Master is greater. However, in the realm of the Origin Source Dao, he is not as complete as Hu Qing.

He initially succeeded in the Dao Merge at the eighth level. Later, when he reached the same level, he did not possess the formidable Origin Source like Hu Qing.

However, both Hu Qing and Jian Wushuang can go against the natural order because of the influence of Qishen Temple. Initially, Shang explored and walked the path to becoming an Ultimate Emperor on his own.

Moreover, in the external world, without anyone’s guidance, he created the universe secret technique and comprehended the Universe Origin Source.

Shang comprehended the Original Universe’s Origin Source, which is purer than the Universe Origin Source among cultivators.

Just based on this point, among all the Inheritors in Qishen Temple, Shang ranks first.

His status is unshakable.

Unless someone becomes the Universe Master before Shang took that step.

To surpass him would be too difficult.

Anyway, whether Jian Wushuang has the assurance or not, he cultivated dual Origin Sources. He wasn’t even at the perfected or complete stage of Dao Lord, let alone catching up with Shang’s footsteps.
