Hell Emperor

Chapter 436 Ye Jie-Wish

"You're the one who brought us here?"

Facing the solemn golden figure, Xia Wei raised her head and asked in a sharp voice.

Xia Wei did not feel any hostility from that huge treasure. On the contrary, the purple energy from the east, which was originally rushing through Xia Wei's body and was about to tear her apart completely, was calmed down by that figure.

Xia Wei didn't even see clearly what he did. She just saw him shed a row of precious light. Under the shining light, Xia Wei's condition completely improved. The light seemed to have a miraculous effect that could heal any injury in the world.

"It is not I who brought you here, but God's will that led you here."

A deep voice as thick as thunder came down from the end of the sky. Upon hearing it, Xia Wei couldn't help but frown:

"Okay, we need to leave this place. There are important things waiting for us. Please tell us how to leave safely."

Baoxiang raised his hand and pointed, and a golden door opened in front of the two of them. Through the door, they could see the bright and vast world outside, which was very different from the flying sand here.

The road was open, Xia Wei immediately pulled Ye Jie and was about to leave with her master, but Ye Jie did not move at all. He looked up at the treasure on the top of the sky, thinking of the various rumors in the past, and spoke in confusion:

"May I ask, Your Excellency, are you the master of this King Kong City?"

"King Kong City has been destroyed, and the master's name is not worthy of his reputation."

Ye Jie took a deep breath. This answer was considered as his consent.

King Kong City covers a vast area, more than ten thousand miles. Even though it has long been destroyed and has become a huge ruin for immortals to explore, one can still feel its grandeur. One cannot imagine how magnificent King Kong City was in its heyday.

As the master of King Kong City, Bao Xiang in front of him must be very powerful, and his words made Ye Jie even more confused: "May I ask, Your Excellency, what exactly do you mean by the incarnation of destiny that you just mentioned?"

"When the times are in danger and the destiny of heaven is about to end, a person who inherits the destiny of heaven and earth will appear in the world to save the world from danger."

Bao Xiang's answer made Ye Jie's heart tremble. He subconsciously turned his head and his eyes fell on Xia Wei, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.

"The devil has arrived. We have failed. The West has become a hotbed of evil. Only the incarnation of destiny in this world can save the three realms from destruction."

Hearing this, Ye Jie seemed to remember something. All the prophecies he had heard in the past, plus the news from Bao Xiang, all sent him a bad signal. All the information was indicating one thing, that there was a terrifying evil force that was about to sweep across the entire Three Realms.

Ye Jie looked around and felt that the current state of the Glazed Holy Land was closely related to this incident, so he asked:

"Is the destruction of King Kong City also related to those demons?"

Hearing this, Bao Xiang's expression finally changed, with a bit more compassion and loneliness on his face:

"The Vajra City used to be magnificent, with palaces connected, eaves scattered, and glazed tiles shining. But all of this was destroyed by the demons. Even I was defeated by the Sixth Heavenly Demon King. The former splendor was destroyed in an instant."

Ye Jie took a deep breath. Even with his Divine Dragon Transformation at the Hongmeng level, he could not sense any aura from Bao Xiang.

When this happens, either the treasure in front of him has no cultivation at all and is just an ordinary person who has not practiced, or his strength is too strong, to a level that Ye Jie cannot even imagine.

The Hongmeng-level Divine Dragon Transformation was able to crush Tianlang, but it couldn't even sense the realm of the treasure in front of it. This also made Ye Jie look ugly, and he was even more worried about Xia Wei's future:

"Since only the incarnation of luck can fight against the demon, can you give us some help? With her current strength, how can she fight against the demon?"

Bao Xiang clenched his right hand, and the purple light in his palm condensed. He stretched out his hand and pointed, and endless purple clouds gathered towards Xia Wei's eyes:

"Now, I am only a broken body left, and I cannot give you more help. I can only summon all the remaining Eastern Purple Qi in King Kong City and entrust it to you. When you have enough cultivation, you can slowly refine it. In addition, I can also show you the way. You need to find someone."

Ye Jie quickly asked: "Who are we going to find?"

"Go find... Tathagata."

"Tathagata?"

Ye Jie was stunned, feeling as if he had heard this name somewhere before.

After thinking carefully, he finally had the answer in his mind. He remembered that the Monkey King had also recited this name when he was escaping from trouble. Unfortunately, Ye Jie had never heard of that name and had no idea who that person was.

"Okay... where do I go to find him?"

Ye Jie took a deep breath and continued to ask.

This time, Baoxiang did not answer. He put his hands together, and a distant Buddhist sound descended from the sky. The sound of bells and chimes contained a deafening power. The sound was like a thousand horses galloping, the Milky Way pouring down, and it shook the sky:

"I came here suddenly on a whim,"

"Why not have fun and return home."

"The world is full of things,

"The nature of the self is innocent and natural,"

"As you came, so you go, so you return."

As he finished speaking, his figure disappeared into the sky, and the strange phenomena around him ceased. Apart from the wind and sand in the sky, not even the slightest trace remained.

Ye Jie was a little dumbfounded: "Wait a minute, you still haven't told me where I should go to find it."

Ye Jie's voice echoed in the wind, but even though the sound spread all over the place, no response came.

Scratching his head, Ye Jie had to look at Xia Wei beside him. Xia Wei had been waiting impatiently. After absorbing infinite purple energy, her aura had become extremely solid. She was determined to lead all living beings to ascend.

"Master, let's go. I can't wait to go to the Ascension Conference!"

Hearing Xia Wei's urging in his ears, Ye Jie couldn't help but sigh. Xia Wei has not yet become an immortal, but she has already made the great wish to lead all living beings to ascend to heaven. Her reputation as the incarnation of destiny is truly well-deserved.

After leaving the Glazed Holy Land, the two returned to the outside of the original stone wall.

In front of the two of them, the venerables of the Equality Hall were already like ants on a hot pan, extremely anxious. In the blink of an eye, not only Xia Wei went to the holy land, but Ye Jie also followed her in.

Seeing the two return, the venerables could no longer suppress their curiosity and quickly gathered around, asking:

"Tell me quickly, what did you see in the Glazed Holy Land!"

"After so many years, is Medicine Buddha still there?"

Ye Jie coughed dryly and said, "If you are referring to the precious figure on the mural, he is indeed there."

"Did you see him? What did he tell you?"

This time, the one who asked Ye Jie was the pointy-headed Master Juzhuyi. Seeing the urgency in his eyes that didn't seem fake, Ye Jie replied:

"He told us a poem, something about coming here with high spirits and leaving with low spirits, but I can't remember it clearly."

"Returning in disappointment? What does that mean?"

The venerables discussed the matter, all with confused looks on their faces. They tried to comprehend the meaning of the poem carefully, but for a moment they could not grasp the meaning.

Beside him, Xia Wei pursed her lips and smiled. The poem clearly said that one should have a great time. She remembered it clearly.

After finally getting rid of the questioning of the venerables, Ye Jie also saw Inai waiting nearby.

Seeing that the two were safe, Ina breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm glad you're okay. When I saw you being sucked into the mural, I thought something happened to you..."

"Don't worry. Compared to this, you should be more worried about what you are going to face next."

Thinking of what was about to happen, Ye Jie's face became solemn, with an indelible seriousness in his eyes.

The coming of the world-destroying thunder calamity is no joke. If you are not careful, the entire continent will be destroyed. Ye Jie has experienced it once, and he knows the horror of the world-destroying thunder calamity better than anyone else.

Even though Xia Wei has now gathered all the purple energy from the east into her own body, it is still unknown what chances she has of winning if she really fights against the world-destroying thunder catastrophe.

Ye Jie took out the main tent of the Witch God Temple and tore it apart with force.

He handed the torn portion of the main account filled with the names of all living beings to Xia Wei, and said to her:

"The Wushen Temple's roster is right here. The names of all living beings are recorded on it. Take it, and when you go to the Ascension Conference, you can write everyone's name on the Conferred God List."

After taking the roster, Xia Wei was stunned, with some hesitation in her eyes, and pursed her lips and said:

"What about you? Master... aren't you going with Xiaowei?"

"Believe me, I will get there, but before that, there is something else waiting for me to do."

The only answer Xia Wei received was Ye Jie's affirmative words.

Hearing the master's firm tone in her ears, Xia Wei felt a deep trust in her heart. She believed that the master would never abandon her alone.

She watched Ye Jie gradually go away, his back figure becoming increasingly faint in her clear eyes. What she felt in her heart was not the sadness of separation, but a deep warmth and attachment.

Maybe there had been some unpleasantness between the two of them in the past, but Xia Wei knew that her master had always been the one who cared about her the most, and this had never changed.

"Let's go, let's leave King Kong City and go to Fangzhang Fairy Island together."

After Ye Jie's figure completely disappeared, Xia Wei said to Yinai who was standing beside her.

The flying sword broke through the air and rushed towards the distance. What awaits Xia Wei ahead will be an unprecedented challenge.

After bidding farewell to Xia Wei and her group, Ye Jie transformed into a divine dragon and flew away from the ruins of King Kong City at full speed. When he landed back on the ground, he was already far away from the East China Sea and on the mainland.

Returning to land also means that the Golden Wheel Palace's shrinking stone can be used normally.

After moving back to the Golden Wheel Palace, Ye Jie used the teleportation array in the palace to travel billions of miles and arrive at the Moluo Palace.

With the guidance of several blood-robed Shuras, Ye Jie successfully entered the Eternal Night Demon Palace in the center of the Demon Palace and met the majestic Demon Palace Master who was sitting on the throne.

On the throne, Moro was leisurely and comfortable. His misty starry eyes showed a look as if he was enjoying a show. He was not surprised by Ye Jie's coming.

"I heard about the death of the Master of the Wushen Temple. It was you who did it, right?"

Moro chuckled, revealing her icy white teeth that emitted a cold light. No matter what happened in which continent, nothing could escape her eyes.

Ye Jie did not answer, but took out the pitch-black main tent of the Witch God Temple and presented it to Moro with both hands:

"This is the main tent of the Wushen Temple. I beg Lord Mo Luo to inspect it."

Moro picked up the main account and flipped it over, frowning slightly: "Something is missing. To be more precise, the roster of all living beings is missing."

Ye Jie was shocked. The missing of the main account could not be hidden from her. He quickly said, "The main account was damaged during the fight, and the other part has been lost. I hope that Lord Mo Luo will forgive me."

Moro laughed loudly, his laughter was full of arrogance and rebelliousness: "Why are you so nervous? It's just right."

Under the might of Moro, Ye Jie broke out in a cold sweat, and she put away the main tent and spoke slowly:

"You have completed my mission and brought back the main account of the first hall. Four of the main accounts in my hand are related to you. Tell me, what wish do you want to make? Divine artifacts, supreme laws, whatever you want, I will satisfy you."

Ye Jie took a deep breath. The opportunity to make a wish to the Lord of the Demon Palace was enough to drive any cultivator crazy. No matter what treasure he wanted, the Lord of the Demon Palace would satisfy him. But Ye Jie wanted something else. He had already made up his mind: "Please, Your Highness, help me revive one of my companions who has been torn apart by the spirit."

"That's all?"

Moro raised his eyebrows, and when he looked at Ye Jie, there was also a bit of strangeness in his eyes, and he said with a little dissatisfaction:

"You helped me get back so many master accounts, but you only made such a trivial request. What? Are you afraid that I can't afford it? If the news gets out and others know that I treat my capable subordinates like this, I will be ashamed myself."

Ye Jie shook his head: "Perhaps in the eyes of His Highness, reviving a soul that has been scattered is just a trivial task, but to me, it is the most precious thing. No matter what kind of treasure it is, I am not willing to exchange it."

Moro didn't listen at all, and said with determination:

"No! Just make one more request. I can give it to you no matter what you want!"

Ye Jie was sweating profusely. How could someone force him to make more requests? However, he did not dare to disobey the good intentions of the Demon Palace Master. He thought for a moment and said:

"In that case, Lord Mo Luo, please release another soul imprisoned in the Soul Devouring Abyss while resurrecting my companion."

"Well, this is your own choice. Don't regret it later if you miss this opportunity."

Moro lowered the corner of his mouth and looked at Ye Jie for a second longer. He was able to decisively give up those skills and artifacts, which was completely different from ordinary Shuras.

"Tell me the names of those two people." Moro said slowly.

Ye Jie hurriedly said: "My companion's name is Hua Xiaomei, and the soul imprisoned in the Soul Devouring Abyss is called Chang Qing, who was once the mountain god of Mount Paektu..."

Moro nodded and snapped her fingers. Suddenly a cold wind blew and resentful spirits howled. Ye Jie seemed to hear whispers from the depths of the underworld. As the black light surged, a familiar figure took shape and his face gradually became clear.

Looking at her, Ye Jie could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart. That person was Hua Xiaomei, who was accidentally killed by Xia Wei and whose soul had already been destroyed.

Hua Xiaomei was breathing weakly and looked listless, as if she had just walked through a dark winter. Her cold hands and feet trembled uncontrollably. Seeing this, Ye Jie hurried forward and hugged her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here..."

Heavy footsteps were heard from behind, and a thin man covered in wounds was also brought here by the Shuras.

Seeing this, Moro nodded with satisfaction and said slowly: "Your wish has come true."
