Chapter 1326 Choice!
In his childhood, Cangya lived with his parents in a village on the border of the Great Xia Dynasty, where the Heiyu Demon Clan had been raiding for years.
To protect the border and their village, Cangya's parents chose to take up arms and become border soldiers to defend against foreign enemies.
Three years later, Cangya's parents died in battle.
Cangya was adopted by the dynasty.
To become a monk.
The tragic experiences of his childhood and the death of his parents had a profound impact on Cangya.
Years ago, he vowed that when he grew up, he would guard the border and fulfill his parents' unfinished wishes.
After becoming Empress Cheng, he resolutely returned to the border region, built a palace, settled down, and guarded the demon forest.
Over the past century, we have repelled countless ferocious enemies.
He is revered by the people of the border region as the God of the Frontier!
He originally thought he had plenty of time left to protect the border.
Who would have thought that he would be attacked by the emperor and die!
"Lord Canghuang!"
The border residents watched as Cangya's massive, mountain-like body collapsed and lay in a pool of blood, their grief overwhelming them, and tears streamed down their faces.
In the past century, without Cangya, they might have died long ago.
At this moment, the Azure Emperor, who was as powerful as a god in their hearts, was being slaughtered as easily as chickens and dogs!
Shocked, they were filled with sorrow.
"The persistence of the weak is both laughable and pathetic!"
Yin Yuanlong glanced at Cang Ya's corpse indifferently, shook his head slightly, then stretched out his right hand, slowly made a fist, his palm shining, and aimed at Cang Ya's corpse, using a supreme secret technique to plunder his memories.
"Black Cloud City has been found, it's 8,300 li away from here!"
Cangya's soul left his body and soared into the sky, transforming into a crimson cloud. It was held in the palm of the Silver Dragon. The Silver Dragon slowly closed its eyes, carefully sensing the surroundings. After a few breaths, it suddenly opened its eyes, glanced at the distant horizon, and abruptly transformed into a sea of clouds, disappearing into the ends of the universe!
In the border demon forest, Cangya's corpse slowly shrank, returning to its original form. Blood gushed from the blood hole in his chest, quickly staining the earth.
The pungent smell of blood mingled with the sweet mountain breeze, permeated with demonic energy, swept across the sky, cleansing the void.
This caused sorrow to the mountain people hidden in the nearby villages.
Meanwhile, two powerful demons, their eyes bloodshot and their breathing rapid, were glaring at the still-glowing, blood-red royal corpse, their eyes burning with an almost insane, intense desire!
The Martial Emperor’s treasured body!
In front of them.
It is the Martial Emperor's Body, a treasure trove of flesh and blood!
Just a tiny bite, just that tiny bite, and they can be transformed and soar to new heights.
The border region of the Great Xia is guarded by Cangya year-round. To ensure the peace of the nearby villages, it does not allow overly ferocious demons to reside there.
At this moment, the two demons staring intently at Cangya's body were both at the very bottom of the demon realm.
Logically speaking, given such a great opportunity, demons of their caliber should not act rashly. Not only should they not act, but they should not even have the slightest bit of greed.
Some demons should guard the precious body, while others should hurry to the depths of the demon realm to report to the demon king and invite him to come and enjoy the precious medicine of flesh and blood.
But if a demon doesn't act in its own self-interest, it will be punished by heaven and earth.
With the opportunity to soar to the heavens and transform into a dragon amidst the winds and clouds, who would willingly live a lowly, mediocre, and insignificant life, inferior to even demons, merely eating and waiting to die?
In the deep, dense, and terrifying demon forest, the ground was covered with withered leaves. The mountain wind howled, swirling up the fallen leaves and making all the demons tremble.
However, the bleak mountain wind could not extinguish the flickering flame in the hearts of the demons!
"That is the Martial Emperor's Body. Just one bite and we will be reborn, no longer needing to be driven by demons and live a life of petty scheming!"
"Are you crazy? Such a precious medicine is reserved for the Demon King. How could we possibly be qualified to touch it? Moreover, the Martial Emperor's body has blood and qi like a dragon, containing an immense amount of spiritual energy. Even a small sip would be too much for our physical bodies to withstand, and we might very well explode and die!"
"The bold get rich, the timid starve. We are of average blood and endowment. If we follow the rules, when will we ever get ahead?"
In a patch of tall, three-meter-high weeds, two burly demons stared at the crimson corpse of Cangya, hundreds of meters away. Their demonic aura was overwhelming, and they spoke in human language, arguing quietly about something.
The two demons had long since become sentient beings, no longer ordinary beasts. Although they held a low position in the nearby demon realm, being the lowest-ranking patrolling demon soldiers, they had already developed intelligence and possessed human-like thinking abilities.
Compared to ordinary ferocious beasts, the two demons were enormous. Even the three-meter-high weeds could not completely bury their bodies, revealing their two broad backs!
Among them, the green-haired wolf demon was quite ambitious, wanting to rebel, plunder the Martial Emperor's precious corpse, and secretly take advantage of the situation in order to change its fate.
In the wolf demon's view, do the demon kings and demon emperors have any right to rule?
Given the right opportunity, it could become the King of the Blue Wolves; why should it remain subservient to others for so long?
The other red-toothed boar demon was honest, cowardly, and timid by nature, and was much more conservative. Although the Martial Emperor's Body was almost a heaven-sent opportunity, a truly supreme chance to defy fate, it was equally tempting. However, after much hesitation, it still gave up.
Firstly, they belong to a rat king in the nearby demon land, who is ferocious and cruel.
If they know the truth but fail to report it, and embezzle the imperial medicine, their crimes will be exposed and their entire family will be wiped out. Not only will they die, but their wives, children and relatives will also perish.
Secondly, the Martial Emperor's body is full of vitality and blood. Even a piece of skin or a drop of blood is enough to destroy mountains and seas. Even if they are demons with tough bodies, they may explode and die if they are eaten rashly!
Based on the above two points, it was unwilling to take risks and did not want to see its good brother embark on a path of no return.
"Zhu Jiuxiao, how about it? Dare to gamble with me? If you win, the magnificent demon life will be right before your eyes!"
"Brother Shanwen, what if we lose?"
"A demon only has a few chances to change his fate in his life. If I don't take a chance, I won't be satisfied!"
Compared to other demons in the nearby demon land, the two demons' bloodlines were not considered terrifying, but they had lived for hundreds of years, possessed high intelligence, and had studied a lot of human culture. Their way of thinking was almost like that of humans.
Lang Shanwen, despite his name, is impulsive and aggressive. Zhu Jiuxiao, despite his name, has no ambition to soar to the sky. Lang Shanwen wants to take a gamble and strive for a bright future, while Zhu Jiuxiao is unwilling to take risks and wants to live a peaceful life.
Whether human or demon, they are essentially the same, bound by hierarchical systems, struggling in agony.
The demons at the bottom of the world looked up at the starry sky, wanting to climb to the top of the mountain, but they didn't expect that the demon king would always trample them under his feet.
The Demon King at the peak firmly held onto power, desiring to bring blessings to his descendants for thousands of generations, and was unwilling to easily allow his subordinates to be promoted and replace him.
As a result, the demon hierarchy became solidified.
The one above will always be on top.
Those below will be trampled underfoot for their entire lives.
Without hard work, struggle, and competition, those below will never become those above.
Even someone as daring, ambitious, and fearless as Lang Shanwen would still find it difficult to rise to prominence without the right opportunities or divine favor.
Now, the opportunity has presented itself.
Can we handle it?
It's up to them!
"Brother Shanwen, I cannot allow you to lay a finger on the royal corpse. If the Rat King finds out, my Pig Demon Clan will have no way to survive!"
"We've been brothers for a hundred years, and you want to cut off my path to the heavens?"
"Brother Shanwen, turn back before it's too late, don't... ah!"
Zhu Jiuxiao tried to persuade his brother to give up, but before he could finish speaking, Langshanwen suddenly stretched out his giant, fan-like claw and smashed Zhu Jiuxiao's head with a bang!
Crimson demon blood mixed with pinkish-white brain matter splattered onto Wolf Mountain's ferocious wolf head.
Watching his century-old friend slowly and incredulously collapse to the ground, a trace of guilt flashed in Lang Shanwen's eyes: "I'm sorry, demons are not self-serving, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lang Shanwen's eyes hardened, and he leaped out, rushing towards Cangya's corpse.
boom!
In the next instant, Langshan pounced on Cangya's corpse, his eyes greedy, and opened his gaping maw of interlocking fangs, biting down hard on Cangya's strong arm.
However, the Martial Emperor's body was as hard as divine iron, and even if he died, his blood and energy would still remain.
The moment Langshanwen's sharp wolf fangs touched Cangya Bao's body, a bright crimson light shone out, and Langshanwen suddenly exploded, turning into a blood mist!
"No!"
Wolf Mountain roared in terror and anger, filled with resentment, and bathed in divine light, it vanished into the crimson glow.
Risk comes with opportunity. Langshan Wen wanted to defy fate and fight for a bright future for himself, but he died tragically in the end and could not overcome his destiny!
at the same time.
A thousand miles away, in the vast sea of clouds, the Silver Yuan Dragon, its body wrapped in silver dragons, moved like a stream of light, traversing the void and instantly teleporting between heaven and earth. In just a few dozen breaths, it had already approached Black Cloud City!
For the Great Emperor, eight thousand miles away is as close as a stone's throw away, and he will arrive in the blink of an eye!
