The Eternal God Emperor Begins from the First Realm Breakthrough

Chapter 167 The Nineteenth Messenger

"You are completely different from what you were back then. You have become calm and profound, and your cultivation is incomparable to that of the past. You can be considered the second greatest of the Great Bright Mal, the ancestors of the Heaven Realm's history."

Chen Ping's words hurt Mal's heart. Surpassing Chi had been his lifelong pursuit. In order to erase Chi's influence on the heavenly realm, he even converted Chi's ancestral realm into Mal's temple. He also re-refined the yellow tripod among the nine tripods left by Chi and turned it into a crown of victory.

Thinking back to the past, he defeated Afuya despite the adversity, what a glorious moment it was. But once he encountered the immortal, he ended up with no remains left, leaving only a remnant soul in the sky of separation and hatred.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. After all these years, if I remain unchanged, it would be strange. As for the Great Bright Mal, that is all in the past. Only Yu Zhuan stands here now."

Chen Ping smiled faintly and looked at him. The temple hall was silent for a moment before a steady voice sounded again.

"Are you coming here this time to join my army like the First Queen?"

"There is no other choice." Yu Zhuan replied in a deep voice. In his previous life, he was eaten by three immortals. Now that he has lived again, how could he choose the person who attacked him back then?

As for setting up his own sect, after experiencing what happened that year, Yu Zhuan understood very well that the depths of this universe were unfathomable, and even the ancestors could not survive on their own. Only the immortals could become chess players of the universe. With his current cultivation level of great freedom, once his identity as the remnant soul of his ancestor in another's body was exposed, there would be no need for the two immortals to take action. All the cultivators in the world would rush to deal with him and seize his ancestor's soul in order to achieve the great way.

Choosing a backer like Afuya is the wisest decision at the moment.

"Yu Zhuan does not seek immortality or the great way of the ancestors in this life. I just wish to live a peaceful life and ask for the protection of the gods." He bowed and kowtowed to Chen Ping.

Two objects wrapped in bright divine light flew out from Yu Zhuan's body and transformed into a crown and a halberd.

"The Crown of Victory and the Blazing Halberd are divine artifacts forged by the angel Chi. They once accompanied me in battle. Now I present them to the Lord of God as a token of my resolve."

Chen Ping's eyes fell on the two artifacts, and he felt a little shocked.

The Blazing Halberd is the artifact in the first chapter of Taibai's artifact chapter, and the Victory Crown is one of the Nine Cauldrons. Even the ancestor would covet these two treasures. Yu Zhuan actually offered them up on his own initiative. Does this mean that he really has no desire to compete and just wants to live a stable life? Or is he a person who knows the times and wants to use these two artifacts to gain more benefits for himself?

"The Blazing Halberd is priceless, and the Victory Crown is one of the Nine Cauldrons, the most supreme divine artifact in the world. Do you really want to offer them to me? Yu Zhuan, what do you want? Just peace and security? I don't believe it."

Yu Zhuan looked up and met Chen Ping's scrutinizing gaze. Although shrouded in the power of light, his face looked sinister.

He said in a cold voice: "Although I have no ambition to fight in this life, I cannot let go of the hatred and resentment of the past. Yu Zhuan wants to seek peace, but before that, he must first avenge the hatred of the past. Otherwise, how can he find peace if his heart is not at peace? In the previous life, he was defeated by the immortal when he was at the peak of his power. Now there is only a remnant soul left. If he wants to fight him, he can only find a backer.

I offer the Blazing Halberd and the Crown of Victory as my price. Please, Lord God, lean on me and help me avenge my death!"

Hate?

Chen Ping shook his head slightly. The hatred of being killed for blocking the way was irreconcilable and could not be erased even after eternity.

Unlike Afuya, an ancestor with limited talent who stopped at the realm of beginning and end, Yuzhuan's previous life, the Great Light Mal, was truly promising. He integrated eight of the ten phases of light into one. At his prime, he had a tendency to replace the angel Chi and become the eternal number one in the way of light.

But the Immortal did not give him a chance to move on and wiped out everything he had.

Chen Ping asked himself, if it were him, even all the water in the sea would not be able to extinguish the anger in his heart.

"Battles with the heavens are endlessly enjoyable, and battles with immortals are even more fascinating. I have always wanted to play chess with the immortals. I have agreed to your request. From today on, you will be my nineteenth messenger, and together with Afuya, you will help me manage all matters of the universe."

Nineteenth?

Yu Zhuan was slightly surprised and looked at Afuya, so she was the eighteenth?
Who are the seventeen messengers in front?
As expected of an immortal who has lived from the ancient times or even earlier times to the present day, his background and methods are truly unfathomable.

Afuya looked calm, but in fact she didn't know who the seventeen messengers before her were.

There are only a few disciples in Wudao Temple. There is only one Holy Spirit Book and one Blue Sky Holy Dragon. Their cultivation is pitifully weak and it doesn't seem like they can become messengers.

Yin Yuanchen is a man of great talent and may achieve great things in the future, but with his current level of cultivation, he is not even a god, let alone worthy of the title of envoy.

The two young men, Chaohua and Te, did not have high cultivation bases, but their origins were very mysterious, so they were possible. However, there were no clues as to the rest.

The End of the Void Wind, the Mother Goddess Qiwada, or perhaps the recently rumored close connection to the Immortal Dao Sect, suspected to be a true disciple of the Immortal Dao Sect, the Destiny Temple's Disaster God...

The longer she lived, the deeper Afuya's fear of these immortals grew. The ancestor was often just a pawn in their hands, perhaps even the most unlikely being a casually dropped pawn by the immortals. "Thank you, Lord God! From now on, I will be Yu Zhuan's messenger under your throne." Yu Zhuan smiled calmly, casually pushing out the Blazing Halberd and the Crown of Victory. There was no trace of reluctance in his eyes. Even the most powerful artifacts were merely external possessions. Hadn't those two things helped him escape the immortals' encirclement and dismemberment? Ironically, the two artifacts had survived.

Chen Ping put away the two artifacts with a wave of his hand. His face showed no sadness or joy, and he did not seem very happy about obtaining two treasures.

This is not pretense. At his level, even the Nine Cauldrons are of limited help to him. Except for the Zhou Cauldron that can provide time acceleration and assist in cultivation, the other Nine Cauldrons are just weapons.

Although the Wu Zu in the Tianshijizhong realm is stronger than he is now, his strength is limited. When his martial arts and physical body break through to the level of the ancestor, even if he fights against the Wu Zu, the outcome is still unknown.

"The universe is about to undergo a major transformation, and the laws of nature will also undergo changes. You have already achieved the realm of the ancestors, which shows your extraordinary qualities. Whether you truly have no ambition to compete in this life, or are temporarily just snakes, I hope that you can grow up as quickly as possible.

Since you are my envoy, you must have the cultivation that matches your envoy status, otherwise you will be laughed at by those two."

Chen Ping waved his hand, and a vortex of void appeared in the main hall of the temple. At the end of the vortex, the surging power of time was surging. It was obvious at a glance that it was not simple.

"Although you are the reborn souls of a broken heart, your realm is still there. Improve your cultivation as soon as possible so that you can help me in the future."

Afuya and Yuzhuan looked at each other and smiled knowingly. They were indeed immortals, with unfathomable depths.

No wonder he could be so calm in the face of the Crown of Victory and the Blazing Halberd. Even if the time artifact at the end of the vortex is not as good as the Crown of Victory, it is not much worse. It can be regarded as an artifact from the first chapter.

After sending Afuya and Yuzhuan into the range covered by the demon shrine to practice, Chen Ping took out the Blazing Halberd and the Crown of Victory again. These two weapons were both made by the Angel Chi among the Nine Wizards. Although the Crown of Victory had been re-refined by Mal and had lost its tripod shape, the source of its Taoism was still the Angel Chi's Blazing Divine Dao, a Dao that integrated the ten aspects of light and reached the level of the beginning and end of heaven.

"The Crown of Victory, one of the Nine Cauldrons. In total, I have collected most of the Nine Cauldrons." Chen Ping smiled sincerely.

Seven of the Nine Cauldrons, namely the Heaven Cauldron, the Earth Cauldron, the Black Cauldron, the Yellow Cauldron, the Universe Cauldron, the Hong Cauldron, and the Wu Cauldron, have fallen into his hands. Only the Cauldron of Nothingness, the Desolate Cauldron in the depths of the Sea Stone Star Valley, and the Cauldron of Time, the Universe Cauldron, which is suspected to be in the hands of the Corpse Nightmare, remain.

There is a saying in the universe that whoever obtains the Nine Cauldrons can obtain the world. This statement is not entirely without reason. Those who can activate the Nine Cauldrons must have a cultivation level of at least the Semi-Ancestor of the Heavenly Venerable. When one's cultivation level reaches this level and is blessed by the Nine Cauldrons, most of the time one is indeed invincible in the world and is respected by all the heavens.

But judging from Chen Ping's current level of cultivation, the Nine Cauldrons are just a more powerful divine artifact. Although the materials are extremely rare and the caster is among the strongest in the ages, it is not made by himself after all, and cannot be considered as his natal divine artifact. Except for Jiuwu himself, no one can fully unleash the true power of the Nine Cauldrons.

With the means of the Underworld Ancestor, it should not be difficult for him to obtain one or two of the Nine Cauldrons, but he did not do so. Instead, he forged the World-Destroying Bell and the Curse Flute by himself.

These two artifacts may not be comparable to the Nine Cauldrons in terms of grade and materials, but in the hands of the Underworld Ancestor, they are the most powerful artifacts and weapons, and the Nine Cauldrons cannot compare with them.

The ancestor of mankind was even better, having the advantage of existing for a longer time. He collected divine materials from the universe and built a seventy-two-story tower.

Although it was not completely cast and was divided into four parts, after billions of years of sedimentation and after undergoing the sacrifices and refinements of the Underworld Ancestor, the Sky Demon, the Sword Ancestor, and the Great Venerable Acala, the seventy-two-story tower is only one step away from returning to its complete state.

The seventy-two-story tower in its complete state is an unparalleled divine weapon that surpasses any of the Nine Cauldrons. Only by gathering all the Nine Cauldrons can one fight against it.

Of course, the one who controls the Nine Cauldrons is not the Nine Wizards, but Zhang Ruochen, the Great Emperor of Heaven. Although the Great Emperor of Heaven is powerful, he is not the Nine Wizards after all, and cannot truly bring out the power of the Nine Cauldrons to its fullest extent.

But from this, we can see the supreme power of the seventy-two-story tower, which is truly a divine artifact that surpasses the Nine Cauldrons.

However, as powerful as the Seventy-Two-Story Pagoda is, it is only the second most powerful artifact in the hands of the human ancestor. There is also the Civilization Ring, which is even more powerful and unpredictable.

A divine object that can suppress and restrain the origin of the way of heaven, its grade has long surpassed the secular level. It is a creation from outside the universe and cannot be possessed by this world.

"Should I also forge a magical artifact of my own?" Chen Ping whispered to himself. The Nine Absolute Divine Tower was just a casual work and could not be considered his natal magical artifact.

A suitable weapon can greatly increase the combat power of a strong man, and a handy semi-artifact can sometimes unleash power that is even greater than that of an artifact.

What suits you is the best, and your natal artifact is the most perfect one among them.

Although this idea came to his mind, Chen Ping regretted that he could not realize it.

This era of the universe has existed for nearly 50,000 kalpas. The divine materials and treasures in the world have long been consumed by the predecessors, and the top divine materials are even harder to find. Even if the entire universe is searched, it may not be possible to gather the materials he needs to refine his natal divine weapon.

Unless the Nine Cauldrons are melted?
