A Powerful Alliance

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask your esteemed name? Are you a disciple of Senior Di Tian?"

Just as Dugu Qiubai was about to return to Emperor Peak, he saw a young man approaching and speaking to him politely.

"The Longevity Body!" Dugu Qiubai sized up the young man before him, immediately recalling Lei Zu's earlier words, and couldn't help but laugh, "You must be Zhou Yuan, the Holy Lord of this generation?"

Zhou Yuan was taken aback, then smiled bitterly. "I've been the Holy Lord for over a hundred years, and there are still people in this Chaos Holy Land who don't recognize me?"

Their presence is so weak!

"Brother Dao, it is indeed I, Zhou Yuan." Zhou Yuan looked at Dugu Qiubai with a helpless expression. If it were any other half-saint, he would have already reprimanded him. How dare you speak to the Holy Lord like that?

However, thinking of how Dugu Qiubai had just killed Jing Yangyu's Dao body with a single punch, he knew that he was far from being his match.

Even if Jing Yangyu were merely a physical body, he wouldn't be able to contend with him.

"Now that you have become a saint, you should stop thinking about the position of saint and start conquering the path to sainthood. Otherwise, you will only waste your immortal body."

Dugu Qiubai looked at Zhou Yuan in front of him, like a senior instructing a junior: "Although the Longevity Body is not a powerful divine body, its potential is not low. Back then, Zhan Zu was the number one person in the cultivation world. If he could do it, you can do it too."

Zhou Yuan stared blankly at Dugu Qiubai in front of him.

Well, I, a dignified saint and the holy lord of the Chaos Holy Land, was actually instructed by a junior half-saint.

Zhou Yuan was a little unhappy; he had a temper too.

Previously, Zhou Yuan was wary of Dugu Qiubai's strength, and also because Dugu Qiubai might be Di Tian's disciple, which is why Zhou Yuan was somewhat polite to him.

But I, Zhou, am the Holy Lord of the Chaos Holy Land. How could you, as a disciple of the Chaos Holy Land, not give me any face at all?

"Here, this is the true spirit of the Xuanwu, one of the ten strongest divine beasts. Take it and replace the trashy sacrificial spirit on you."

After giving Zhou Yuan his instructions, Dugu Qiubai gave him a demon beast spirit.

He has plenty of these things. Since Zhou Yuan has talent, of course he should nurture him.

"The Ten Great Divine Beasts!"

Just as Zhou Yuan was about to angrily rebuke Dugu Qiubai, he saw the Xuanwu True Spirit that Dugu Qiubai handed over, and he was immediately dumbfounded.

Their Chaos Holy Land has declined, and even the true spirits of divine beasts are scarce. As the Holy Lord, he joined the Chaos Holy Land during its peak, so he was still able to obtain the true spirits of divine beasts.

But compared to the Xuanwu, one of the top ten divine beasts, it is far inferior.

But do you think I won't be angry if you bribe me?

I am the Holy Lord of the Chaos Holy Land, don't I have any dignity?

I am a dignified immortal being; how could I accept food offered with contempt?

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

Zhou Yuan gratefully accepted the Xuanwu True Spirit and thanked Dugu Qiubai.

"Cultivate diligently, for the future Chaos Holy Land will depend on you!" Dugu Qiubai waved his hand and then departed into the air.

Zhou Yuan looked at Dugu Qiubai's retreating figure, feeling both amused and exasperated.

Rely on us?

Seriously? You're the junior, I'm the senior. How can you talk like that?

However, after seeing the Xuanwu True Spirit in his hand, Zhou Yuan still didn't dare to reprimand him and turned around and left happily.

"Huh, who exactly is that guy?"

Zhou Yuan suddenly realized that Dugu Qiubai had not told him his name.

……

The Primordial Holy Land.

Inside a palace, Jing Yangyu suddenly opened his eyes, and his double pupils immediately reflected a terrifying scene of creation.

"Was your Dao body destroyed by Di Tian of the Chaos Holy Land, or by Yun Chu of the South Sea?"

A young man walked in, looked at Jing Yangyu and said calmly. He was eight feet tall, wearing a long robe with blue clouds and white sun, and had a handsome appearance and unparalleled temperament.

"I underestimated the Chaos Holy Land!"

Jing Yangyu looked up at the young man, his double pupils shooting out a terrifying beam of light, and said in a deep voice, "Gu Wudi, haven't you always been by Master's side? Why have you returned now? Has Master returned as well?"

"Father is discussing with Long Yi, preparing to join forces to destroy the Chaos Holy Land," Gu Wudi said calmly.

Jing Yangyu frowned and said, "The Chaos Holy Land only has Thunder Ancestor left now. Master can suppress him easily. Is there any need to join forces with Long Yi?"

"Never underestimate the Chaos Holy Land. Back then, the Chaos Holy Land declined and was attacked by our Primordial Holy Land in conjunction with several Quasi-Emperors. In the end, it still managed to turn the tide and become strong again for several hundred years."

Gu Wudi said with a piercing gaze, "An ancient holy land like the Chaos Holy Land has a profound and powerful foundation. If we are to attack it, we must go all out. As the saying goes, even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit. Father does not want to give the Chaos Holy Land the slightest chance."

Jing Yangyu nodded. He thought of Dugu Qiubai and said in a deep voice, "Master is right. This time when I went to the Chaos Holy Land, I encountered a powerful half-saint who destroyed my Dao body with a single punch, and I don't even know his name."

"Such a powerful demigod is actually an unknown nobody?" Gu Wudi was surprised to hear this.

Their Primordial Holy Land has been keeping a close eye on the Chaos Holy Land. If there really is such a powerful half-saint, how could they not know anything about it?

This shows that he is a super genius hidden in the Chaos Holy Land.

Jing Yangyu and Gu Wudi exchanged a glance; they both had their own guesses.

"Now that the Holy Road and the Emperor Road are controlled by our Primordial Holy Land, it's quite normal for the Chaos Holy Land to want to hide its geniuses."

Jing Yangyu sneered, "However, he will eventually go to the Holy Path to become a saint, and I will personally kill him then."

"Perhaps he won't have that chance!" Gu Wudi shook his head and said, "The Chaos Holy Land will definitely be destroyed this time, and they won't have any more chances."

Jing Yangyu looked towards the Chaos Holy Land and said coldly, "Our Primordial Holy Land has two Quasi-Emperors, but only one Emperor Weapon. If we destroy the Chaos Holy Land this time, Master can seize the Chaos Bell and, like the Chaos Emperor of the past, sweep across all the heavens and myriad realms, becoming invincible throughout the universe."

……

Imperial Road, Sunset Valley.

The colorful clouds fell into the valley, illuminating the world with dazzling brilliance.

A gigantic, five-clawed golden dragon lay prone in Sunset Valley, its winding body covered in golden scales that shimmered in the glow of the sunset.

Suddenly, the five-clawed golden dragon raised its head, its two huge eyes fixed on a figure walking out of the valley.

"Gu Tianyi, I heard you've advanced to Quasi-Emperor. Do you want to fight me?"

Outside Sunset Valley, Gu Tianyi appeared extremely ethereal, seemingly utterly empty and distant, as if standing on a cloud, separated by a starry sky, and stained with the dust of history.

Long Yi's pupils contracted slightly. He knew that Gu Tianyi had truly advanced to the Quasi-Emperor level. He looked unfathomable, which made Long Yi very wary.

"Long Yi, you are one of the few powerful enemies in this era who can rival me. I don't want to kill you with a higher cultivation level. Perhaps we can have a spar when you advance to the Quasi-Emperor level."

Gu Tianyi stood there, his clothes fluttering, his long hair flying, his eyes reflecting the vast world, having seen through the ages.

"Enough with the nonsense, tell me why you're here!" Long Yi said bluntly.

"If we join forces to destroy the Chaos Holy Land, I want all the cultivation techniques and scriptures within the Chaos Holy Land, and the Chaos Bell will be yours!" Gu Tianyi said calmly.

A sharp light suddenly shot from Long Yi's eyes. He looked at Gu Tianyi opposite him and sneered, "You'd really be willing to give me the Chaos Bell?"

"I firmly believe that I am invincible. Only mediocre people would rely on imperial weapons." Gu Tianyi's eyes were full of confidence. He was immaculate, handsome and refined, and had a transcendent sense of clarity.

Long Yi stared intently at Gu Tianyi, and only after confirming that Gu Tianyi had no reason to lie did he speak, "Okay!"
