Chapter 455 - 316: An Old Friend’s Request, Witnessing the Red Flame Celestial Mandate Forge Weapons, This Journey to Slay Gods and Ascend! (Part 2)

[Zhao Shenlong is the great grandson of Zhao Tianji.]

[However, Master Gu is impartial about this, neither supporting nor opposing.]

[Master Gu has chosen the Human King for the "Red Flame Army," a young man from the Spirit Realm under Black Cloud City, named—Zhou Da Shan!]

[His father is a warrior of the Black Dragon Army, Zhou Dashu.]

[Luo Yi once met Soldier Master Meng Zhan, he took over the Spirit Realm Crescent Moon City, and might have even met him once.]

[This is the purpose of Master Gu’s journey, he plans to visit the Martial Arts Hall in Da Shan in three years, and hopes that Luo Yi can take care of his disciple Zhou Da Shan during this time.]

[Master Gu spoke frankly, igniting the Heart Fire, failure means death.]

[Within the Human Race, even if a family can gather enough silver, they would prefer to inherit the Spirit Weapon of their ancestors, staying forever at the Commander-in-Chief level, rather than daring to ignite the Heart Fire.]

[At this juncture, Luo Yi may gain some insight from Zhou Da Shan.]

[Master Gu is well aware of his twenty-year friend’s character, instantly touching Luo Yi.]

[Luo Yi promised, should Zhou Da Shan face a life-and-death crisis, he would intervene secretly.]

[Master Gu expressed gratitude, offering thirteen Upper Grade True Skill Inheritances and thirty-two Middle Grade True Skill Inheritances, these are all the Inheritances of the Martial Arts Hall, within a mere hundred years, the Zhao Country has lost half of what was brought out from the Eternal Realm Taizhou Martial Arts Hall.]

[The Alien Race will not sit idly by, dark undercurrents are surging.]

[As Master Gu departed, Luo Yi looked towards Senior Cat Celestial Punishment Blade, it was an Unparalleled Spiritual Weapon forged by the Celestial Pride of the Human Race, how did it end up in the Ancient Empire?]

[Luo Yi comprehended thirteen Upper Grade True Skills and thirty-two Middle Grade True Skills.]

[Five years later, at the majestic pass Sanyang Pass of the Human Race, Luo Yi watched as Red Flame Celestial Mandate used the body of a samurai to battle the Furnace Lord, ignite the Heart Fire, and forge an Unparalleled Spiritual Weapon—"Great Sage Equal to Heaven!"]

[The great momentum of Red Flame Celestial Mandate was established, leading the Red Flame Army to reclaim the former mountains and rivers.]

[Luo Yi felt his merit was complete, quietly withdrew, returning to White Rainbow City.]

[Three months later, the mist trembled, north of White Rainbow City, away from Black Cloud City, the mountains expanded, a whole world fell into the Land of Void.]

[Luo Yi finally awaited this heaven-defying opportunity, instructed his wife Delilah, then quietly plunged into the mist.]

[He began to scour the world for silver and gold.]

[The broken world, with parts of the region integrated with mountains, isolated by mist, forming the Spirit Realm.]

[Remnants of the Rabbit Race and Star Moon Race also plunder silver and gold here, they harbor deep hatred towards the Human Race.]

[Especially upon discovering traces of the Black-eyed Race in this world, and the "weapon" held by the Legendary Knight was a Human Race Demon Weapon, the Alien Race is worried that the power of Black Cloud City might grow again, executing a policy of extermination against the Human Race.]

[Resistance is futile before experts of the Divine Domain.]

[The Legendary Knight of the Ancient Empire died gloriously, some of the Human Race saw the situation poorly, taking the opportunity to escape into the mist seeking a glimmer of hope, among them, a Star Moon Envoy sees a strong "samurai" among the escaping Humans, relentlessly pursuing.]

[Suddenly in the mist, dozens of figures burst out, scattering like a startled herd of deer.]

["Whizz—!"]

[A silver light tore through the thick mist, the arrow of the Star Moon Envoy with a piercing shriek pierced the back of an escapee. As a mist of blood exploded, a middle-aged samurai fell to his knees, his eyes reflecting the sight of his compatriots falling one after another.]

[He battled these monsters emerging from the mist, repeatedly unleashing Qi Blood, now utterly exhausted.]

[Just as the next arrow was about to pierce his throat—]

[Luo Yi walked in the mist holding a sword, his brow pulsing, the Power of the Mind reaching out, sensing the distant middle-aged samurai.]

["Cheng!"]

[A clear and melodious sword chime echoed across the wilderness, that lethal arrow shattered into powder mid-air.]

[The mist fell silent for a moment.]

[The middle-aged samurai looked up blankly, only to see a figure standing in front of him, as the robes fluttered, the mist within ten zhang around was pushed back by invisible Sword Intent, forming a clear world.]

["Ah Yi!"]

[The middle-aged samurai’s voice was hoarse, blood-shot eyes erupted with amazing brilliance at this moment. He trembled as he reached out, seeming to disbelieve that the person before him truly existed.]

["I didn’t expect to see you again before dying..."]

["Elder Brother..."]

[Luo Yi slowly turned, Sword Intent still present in his eyes, yet slightly froze upon clearly seeing the other’s face.]

[Twenty years of time surged like a tide—back then, that spirited youth now had his brows filled with the marks of time, just one look, Luo Yi knew Elder Brother’s Source Blood foundation was damaged.]

[The two brothers had no time to reminisce.]

["What courage!"]

[From the depths of the mist came the angry shriek of the Star Moon Envoy, a new round of arrow rain was forming. Luo Yi did not even turn his head, simply raised his hand to press lightly.]

["Buzz—"]

[The mist within a hundred zhang suddenly solidified, countless incoming arrows suspended in the air then shattered inch by inch. A muffled grunt was heard from afar, followed by the sound of something heavy hitting the ground.]

[On the other side.]

[The pupils of the Golden Divine Arrow abruptly contracted, watching the Star Moon Envoy frozen in place with a bow drawn ready to shoot, fine lines of blood suddenly seep from his seven orifices, exactly—"Godslaying Sword Intent."]

["This is Soldier Gang?!" His voice trembled, "Be careful! That guy is a Human Race Commander-in-Chief!!"]

[The Golden Divine Arrow retreated rapidly, disappearing into the thick mist in an instant.]

[Luo Yi stood calmly on the spot, his right hand lightly pressing the hilt, quietly watching the opponent depart. The breeze brushed past, blowing a few strands of scattered black hair on his forehead, revealing those deep eyes like ancient wells.]

["Ah Yi..." Luo Feng’s dry lips trembled, his Adam’s apple rolled difficultly. Suddenly, he grabbed Luo Yi’s arm as if awakened, "We must go! Those monsters in the mist... cannot be resisted by human power!"]
