610: Return to the capital

“Oh, what a spendthrift…”

Qin Chuan, with a pained expression, took out a Black-grade Sound Transmission Talisman.

After binding the amulet in his hand, he whispered something into the talisman, then directly sent it towards the kunlun mirror.

The next second, a black light burst forth before Qin Yang’s eyes.

【Love you, wife】

Along with Qin Chuan’s sickeningly sweet whisper, a notification appeared before Qin Yang’s eyes.

【You have received a message from Qin Chuan.】

Qin Yang eagerly opened it and immediately saw a string of equipment information.

【Attachment】—

【Equipment】: Beast Path Amulet.

【Part】: Accessory.

【Quality】: Black-grade.

【Rank】: Level 151.

【Attribute】: None.

【Description】: The foremost of the Three Evil Paths, from Divine Beasts like Dragons and Phoenix to demon spirits like snakes, insects, rats, and ants, all are within the Animal Path. The wielder of the Beast Path Amulet can enlighten all beasts and restrain all demons.

【Entry 1】: Enlighten All Beasts. You can purify the Bloodline of all beasts, allowing them to gain the qualification for Immortal Ascension, becoming a Buddha or a God.

【Entry 2】: Restrain All Demons. Your attack efficiency against beast-type and demon-type targets increases by 50%. Beast-type and demon-type targets’ attack efficiency against you decreases by 50%.

【Note】: “Attack efficiency” includes damage, control, negative statuses, and all other malicious actions.

After seeing the entries of the Beast Path Amulet, Qin Yang subconsciously performed a “tactical lean back,” crossed his arms, and a scornful smile appeared on his face.

“Lion Camel Ridge?”

“Golden Winged Great Peng?”

“Hehe—”

It truly gives me whatever I need!

Just now he was worried about being solo-killed by Golden Winged Great Peng, and now a targeted piece of equipment appeared!

Qin Yang was not afraid of Golden Winged Great Peng.

He merely held him in high regard, following the principle of giving the enemy ample consideration.

After all, this was an existence that could act wildly in front of the Buddha, so he couldn’t let his guard down.

However, on a tactical level, Qin Yang didn’t think he couldn’t go head-to-head with Golden Winged Great Peng.

The achievement “Above Heaven and Earth” could reduce the opponent’s abilities by 50%.

【Retired Emperor: Your Imperial Son is eternally grateful. I initially wrote 70%, but later realized it was too exaggerated and would cause a collapse, so I changed it to 50%.】

In other words, Golden-Winged Great Peng could only use half of his strength against him.

With just this point, Qin Yang was confident enough to confront him with the posture of a Supreme Emperor.

And now, the “Restrain All Demons” ability, which specifically counters the Animal Path, could further weaken him by 50%.

Calculating it… Golden Winged Great Peng would only have 25% of his combat power against him.

This was almost no different from Yang Jian, who he fought in the Elf World.

“No…”

“According to Yang Jian, Golden Winged Great Peng and he are not on the same Rank.”

“If I can defeat Yang Jian at 20% strength, I can definitely utterly defeat Golden Winged Great Peng at 20% strength!”

Thinking this, Qin Yang’s eyes shone brightly.

At this moment, he even somewhat looked forward to the activation of “Lion Camel Ridge.”

“I’m a bit excited.”

Qin Yang took out the Beast Path Amulet from the attachment and held it in his hand.

It was a fang-shaped amulet, engraved with crude runes, shimmering with a yellowish-brown luster.

The moment he touched its surface, the amulet melted like liquid, sinking beneath the skin of his palm, just like the Hungry Ghost Path Amulet before.

The next moment, a brown pupil lit up in his eye.

Beast Path, activated!

Roar!

Immediately, outside the Imperial Dragon Carriage, various roars and cries of beasts, and even insect chirps, resounded.

It was as if at this very moment, myriad beasts and spirits were prostrating themselves towards this place, welcoming the arrival of their Dominator.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiao’er felt a bit apprehensive.

She could feel that all the beasts in the entire Elf World were stirring.

She said to Qin Yang, “Your father… seems to have given you an incredible piece of equipment!”

“Indeed.”

Qin Yang smiled and nodded, “The Retired Emperor has rendered meritorious service by presenting this treasure. I shall generously reward him.”

Immediately, he said to Qin Chuan in the kunlun mirror, “You performed well this time. What reward do you wish for?”

【You performed well this time. What reward do you wish for?】

Qin Chuan was stunned, feeling that these words sounded somewhat familiar.

This seemed to be his own line.

Before, he often said this to Qin Yang.

Good heavens!

This was truly an inversion of the natural order!

Qin Chuan was both annoyed and amused.

He was annoyed that his “Seven Wolves” could no longer break Qin Yang’s defense, and amused that his son had grown to an unimaginable height.

Before Qin Yang’s Awakening, Qin Chuan’s only requirement for Qin Yang was to live well and have many children.

Who would have thought that he would directly reach the ceiling of existence?

It was truly absurd… A profligate son addicted to wine and women could actually become the most powerful and influential being in this world.

What more could Qin Chuan ask for?

He said to Qin Yang, “Just like before, live well and have many children. This is my greatest reward, and my only request of you, son.”

“Tsk…”

“Why is he suddenly getting emotional?”

“I don’t know who he learned it from, it’s so awkward…”

Qin Yang grumbled, but his heart felt warm.

At present, he did feel a bit lonely at the top.

Whether in front of opponents or teammates, he had to maintain a cold and invincible demeanor, and only when surrounded by his parents and family could he be himself, joking around without any reservations.

Thinking of this, Qin Yang said to Qin Chuan, “Rest assured, I will reach the pinnacle of all heavens. No one, no thing, can threaten my family, my people.”

Then, he looked at Lin Xiao’er, “I will definitely bring Grandpa back safely.”

Lin Xiao’er nodded gently, stroking Qin Yang’s face and saying, “You must be careful yourself.”

At this moment, Qin Chuan in the kunlun mirror was stunned and said, “What, something happened to my father-in-law??? ”

Qin Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head, making a shushing gesture, and said, “Do not reveal this matter to outsiders. I fear it will cause panic.”

Afterwards, he said to Lin Xiao’er, “Have the Expeditionary Force prepare. We are ready to return to the Human World. The challenges we will face next will be more intense than those in the Elf World.”

Three days later.

Accompanied by the roar of engines, the ten major Plane Carrier battle groups once again ascended into the sky.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, these steel behemoths all reflected a golden radiance, like warships from the Divine Realm.

And at the very front of these warships, nine silver Dragons pulled the magnificent Imperial Dragon Carriage, heading straight towards the setting sun ahead.

Qin Yang stood upon the dragon carriage, gently raising his hand, and summoned the xuanyuan sword.

At this time, he had already used the eastern emperor bell to bind the Elf World, making it a sub-plane of the Human World.

Wielding the authority of two worlds, he could freely open a passage between them.

He slowly raised the xuanyuan sword, pointed it directly at the setting sun ahead, and then fiercely swung it down.

Immediately, the huge, reddish, semi-circular setting sun was split into “two halves.”

Of course, this was only a visual effect.

The setting sun remained whole; it was just that a Celestial Gate had appeared in front of it.

Just as when Qin Yang descended upon the Elf World.

The Celestial Gate slowly opened, revealing a colossal city within.

That was Shangjing City.

The heart of Shenzhou, the heart of the Human World.

And now, also the heart of the Elf World.

“We respectfully send off the Divine Emperor as he returns triumphantly!”

“Divine Emperor eternal, Shenzhou everlasting!”

Facing the retreating figures of the Imperial Dragon Carriage and the Plane Carriers, Yekaterina, Saintess Hui Yue, and the Dark Holy Mother, the “Three Seats of Judgment,” led tens of thousands of elves in devout prostration, respectfully sending off their Dominator.

Just after the elves’ shouts of “Everlasting!”

Within the Celestial Gate, waves of shouts like a tsunami also resounded.

“We respectfully welcome the Divine Emperor, returning triumphantly!”
