Chapter 772 – Decision
“Rising from the dead, Holy step powerhouses are really incredible!”
Yang Feng saw with his own eyes the body parts of the Brilliant Holy fly here and merge with the rest of the body. At the same time, a powerful life force slowly awakened. His eyes are full of shock.
The dead cannot be resurrected — this is common sense in the world of Warlocks. No one has ever heard of a dead Warlock resurrecting.
After devout believers die, their souls will return to the respective divine countries. The gods can make their souls into petitioners, angels, and other beings, which is akin to a reincarnation.
Of course, gods can also put the souls of their believers back into their dead bodies, to extend their lives. However, that would not only consume a lot of divine force, but the souls would also be eroded by the rotting flesh. In the end, the souls would collapsed and disappear.
The Brilliant Holy is a Warlock from the 1st Warlock Dynasty era. Since the collapse of the 1st Warlock Dynasty until now, a tremendous amount of time has passed. After so much time, even the souls of the Eight Warlock Emperors would have decayed, and they would have ultimately die. But for the Brilliant Holy to be able to resurrect, that is simply outrageous.
Yang Feng’s heart stirred as he watched the Brilliant Holy’s body parts emerge: “Although it is recorded in the history books that the Eight Warlock Emperors have died, but with their beyond incredible means, they may die but not be vanquished. In other words, they aren’t dead!”
Since the Brilliant Holy has the ability to rise from the dead, then the Eight Warlock Emperors, who are renowned for being far stronger than the Brilliant Holy, they won’t die that easily.
Almost all the parts of the Brilliant Holy’s body have been fully restored, with only the head still missing. Weird fluctuations suddenly spread, enveloped Yang Feng, and transmitted the location of the head to him.
Gold threads shot out from the Brilliant Holy’s body, shrouded the body, and formed a gold cocoon that sank into the gold lake.
“This is where the Brilliant Holy’s head and last body part is located. Do I go save him now?”
With a thought, Yang Feng quickly gathered and analyzed all the stories about the Brilliant Holy.
In the world of Warlocks, most Warlocks requite like with like. But there are all kinds of people. Similarly, there are some Warlocks who bite the hand that feeds them.
Especially Warlocks with abyssal fiend bloodline, they are rather chaotic. This chaotic nature will prompt them to back stab their benefactor without hesitation.
The deeds of the Brilliant Holy were quickly screened out and presented inside Yang Feng’s sea of knowledge.
The Brilliant Holy was a peerless genius of the same age as the Time Lord, and much like the latter, he was a human-archgod hybrid. He was one of the 12 Holy who followed the Time Lord.
At the end of the archgod age, the archgods treated other races of Cangzhi Plane like livestock and discriminated heavily against mixed-blood archgods, who also possessed great power. Therefore, under the leadership of the mixed-blood archgods, the humans and numerous other races of Cangzhi Plane staged a rebellion against the rule of the archgods.
At the beginning, virtually every one of the 12 Holy who has followed the Time Lord was a peerless genius who competed with the Time Lord for the rule over the resistance army. Each one of them was the leader of a huge force.
The Brilliant Holy was a formidable opponent of the Time Lord. But he ultimately joined the Time Lord’s troops and fought alongside the Time Lord. Judging from the historical records, he was an upright man who requited like with like.
After repeated considerations and deductions via Fate Algorithm, Yang Feng made up his mind to save the Brilliant Holy: “According to the analysis of existing data, after saving the Brilliant Holy, the probability of him turning on me is 2.3%, while the probability of gaining his favor is 97.7%.”
If the Brilliant Holy was a deprived degenerate who cuts down human life like wheat, then Yang Feng not only wouldn’t save him, but would instead look for ways to thoroughly refine his body into a secret treasure, or divide it and suppress it.
When Yang Feng checked the location of the Brilliant Holy’s head, he couldn’t help frowning: “Overlord See, the sea where one of the the three merfolk imperial courts — Dulan Imperial Court — is located. So the head of the Brilliant Holy fell into the hands of the Dulan Imperial Court. This is bad!”
After the collapse of the Eighth Warlock Dynasty, the three merfolk imperial courts took the opportunity to steal an Empyrean grade secret treasure called Sea God Royal Court.
The Empyrean grade secret treasure Sea God Royal Court is a secret treasure the 1st Warlock Dynasty’s Many Treasures Holy refined using the corpse of a Warlock Emperor rank merfolk archgod and precious treasures.
The Eight Warlock Dynasties relied on this Empyrean grade secret treasure to command Cangzhi Plane’s merfolk. Under the coercion of the Sea God Royal Court, Cangzhi Plane’s merfolk had no choice but to obey and slave away for human Warlocks.
Since the Empyrean grade secret treasure Sea God Royal Court fell into the hands of the three merfolk imperial courts, now even Holy Spirit Warlocks can hardly deal with the merfolk hidden in the endless waters.
“In the name of Golem Dynasty, let’s have the merfolk hand over the head of the Brilliant Holy!” Yang Feng pondered for a while, and then shook his head: “No, that won’t do! It would be fine if the merfolk conceded. But if they don’t, I will have no way to punish them. By then, Golem Dynasty’s prestige will reach rock bottom, and it’ll be difficult to keep this branch floating continent.”
Yang Feng feigned to be from Golem Dynasty in order to compel Bajur Dynasty to flee the branch floating continent and not dare to say a word. Golem Dynasty’s prestige is colossal. Warlocks who rebelled against Golem Dynasty in the past were all quelled and reduced to lifeless golems.
Although Yang Feng used the Holy might unconsciously released by Brilliant Holy’s body to deter unruly Warlock groups. But once a slight flaw is revealed, the other Warlock groups will rush forward and tear Yang Feng to pieces.
A ray of light flashed, and Yu Yan, who is wearing a tight-fitting military uniform and exuding an enticing aura, appeared in front of Yang Feng and bowed, saying: “Lord, were you looking for me?”
Yang Feng asked: “If I ordered the merfolk to offer a treasure in the name Golem Dynasty, will they agree?”
As a former marshal of Great Cloud Dynasty and a freakish genius, Yu Yan is very knowledgeable. She is a capable commander and knows about most of the areas of Cangzhi Plane. Among his subordinates, she is the general he thinks most highly of.
Yu Yan pondered for a while, and then shook her head: “Although the merfolk only occupy three-tenths of the entire plane. However, the sea’s resources are concentrated in the three merfolk imperial courts. The Dulan King, the Sea Dragon King, and the Leigu King are all Warlock Monarch rank powerhouses.”
“Additionally, there are reportedly other Warlock Monarch rank powerhouses hidden among the three merfolk imperial courts. Furthermore, they’ve enshrined the sleeping Holy Spirit Warlock Devil Sea Holy.”
“Once the Devil Sea Holy wakes up, coupled with the Sea God Royal Court, it’ll be able to contend against a weaker Warlock Emperor rank powerhouse in the sea.”
Warlock Emperors rank powerhouses are the most powerful existences in the world. However, there are both strong and weak individuals among Warlock Emperor rank powerhouses. Compared to most formidable Holy step powerhouses, Warlock Emperors who’s soul has decayed to the extreme are only slightly stronger. By relying on the Sea God Royal Court, the Devil Sea Holy can barely fight against such a Warlock Emperor in the sea.
“Unless we produce a Warlock Emperor rank powerhouse, or seize the Empyrean secret treasure Sea God Royal Court, the merfolk will never follow our orders.”
Yang Feng pondered for a while, and then asked, “I want to obtain a Holy grade secret treasure from the merfolk, can I get it through trade?”
The head of the Brilliant Holy contains infinite mysteries and part of his soul. If top alchemy is used, it can be refined into a Holy grade secret treasure. It is impossible for the the merfolk not to know of its value.
Yu Yan replied: “The merfolk occupy the vast seas, which are rich in resources. Moreover, although they struggle fiercely among themselves, but they haven’t experienced the nearly world-ending wars during the collapse of our Eight Warlock Dynasties. Although the merfolk aren’t good at forging, but they have collected many powerful secret treasures developed by us human Warlocks. Over the years, they have gathered many top secret treasures, to the point that they even have much more than we do. If you wanted to get some low-level secret treasure, it wouldn’t be a problem. However, it will be fundamentally impossible to obtain a Holy grade secret treasure from them!”
During the collapse of the Eight Warlock Dynasties, not only would human Warlocks kill each other, but powerful beings from the 36 primary plains would also come to Cangzhi Plane and hunt them down.
It is because of eight nearly world-ending wars that many top powerhouses of the 36 primary material planes and Cangzhi Plane have died, leading to a deterioration and scarcity of powerhouses.
