455: Chapter 465 The Heavenly Emperor's Daughter!?

"It's actually her!! The Heavenly Emperor's daughter..."

The illusory spirit body of the Sword Soul fluctuated violently. Its old eyes stared fixedly at the figure inside the Crystal Coffin, its face filled with deep melancholy as its thoughts seemed pulled back to that brilliant yet crazy era hundreds of millions of years ago.

"The Heavenly Emperor's daughter??"

Su Feng looked at the Crystal Coffin with some surprise.

In the upper right corner of his vision, the countdown panel popped up by the System was beating clearly, showing that there were still over nine hundred years left until the Seal was lifted.

Besides waiting for the time to end naturally, the System also provided another option: [Force Open].

However, underneath the option was a striking red warning line.

[Warning! The consequences of opening it early are unknown!]

"That's right..."

The Sword Soul muttered to itself, walking around the Crystal Coffin twice with its brows knitted tightly together like a twisted dough twist.

"But this is absolutely impossible! Back when the Great Thousand Star Domain was first established and the Heavenly Emperor transformed into all things, this old man clearly saw her Divine Soul shatter with his own eyes! How could she appear here completely intact?!"

No matter how hard the Sword Soul tried to figure it out, this completely exceeded its memory and cognition.

"Since she is the Heavenly Emperor's daughter, and this Great Thousand Star Domain was transformed from her father's Physical Body, then roughly speaking, she is one of us."

Su Feng rubbed his chin. Right now, the Realm Demons outside were causing quite a ruckus. Since she was one of their own and the biological daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, her strength definitely wouldn't be weak.

Wouldn't releasing her to act as a super thug while discussing the philosophy of life be killing two birds with one stone?

Thinking of this, Su Feng raised his hand, gathering the immortal power of the Late Stage Great Emperor in his palm, ready to directly press [Force Open].

"No!! You absolutely must not open it!!!"

Seeing that Su Feng was about to act, the Sword Soul, which had just been acting so melancholic, instantly reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. It let out a sharp cry and transformed directly into a golden light, blocking the space between Su Feng's palm and the Crystal Coffin.

"What? Isn't it good to release her to fight the demons?"

Su Feng felt a burst of curiosity regarding the Sword Soul's overreaction, which was as if it had seen a ghost.

"Don't you ever open it... At least absolutely not right now! Su Feng, listen to this old man's advice, this is a fatal business!" The Sword Soul was so anxious that its beard stood on end, its hands spread wide like a mother hen protecting its chicks.

"Then you at least need to let me know why it can't be opened, right?"

Looking at the four characters "consequences unknown" given by the System, Su Feng's curiosity was completely hooked.

"This Great Thousand Star Domain is also her home; could she possibly turn the heavens upside down?"

"She..."

The Sword Soul looked at Su Feng with an incomparably conflicted expression, as if struggling to phrase its words, trying to find a statement that wouldn't offend the Heavenly Emperor's majesty while making Su Feng deeply realize the severity of the situation.

Holding it in for a long time, the Sword Soul took a deep breath, its expression unprecedentedly solemn: "I can only tell you that before you have enough strength to absolutely crush her, releasing her... will be a catastrophe for the entire Great Thousand Star Domain!"

Su Feng raised an eyebrow, pointed at the Void Realm above his head, and looked at the Sword Soul amusedly:

"Wait, no? Old man, did you forget something? Even if I don't release her right now, the Great Thousand Star Domain is already undergoing a catastrophe of Realm Demons!"

The Sword Soul's breathing choked from Su Feng's retort. Anxious to the point of stamping its feet, it waved its hands wildly to defend itself:

"If you don't release her, right now you are one-on-one..."

"But if you release her, sure, she will deal with the Realm Demons, but she will also raw-gnaw the Great Thousand Star Domain to pieces!!"

Su Feng: "???"

Su Feng froze, looking at the slender and quiet, peerlessly beautiful figure inside the Crystal Coffin.

"No way? Is this sister so fierce?"

Su Feng felt his brain spinning a bit too slowly. "Wait, this isn't right! Wasn't this Great Thousand Star Domain transformed from her biological father's body? Where is the logic in a daughter gnawing on her biological father's grave?"

"Haaah..."

The Sword Soul let out a long sigh, and its spirit body wilted by a fraction.

This was the first time Su Feng had seen such an expression on the face of this Sword Soul, which had witnessed the birth and destruction of the Universe.

"Her name is Xuanyuan Lishang. She is the only Bloodline born to the Heavenly Emperor and a mortal woman when he was still in the Golden Immortal Realm."

Recalling the past, the Sword Soul spoke in a faint tone, "However, what she does not Cultivate is the Righteous Path Spells of the Heavenly Emperor's Legacy, but a demonic Cultivation Technique called the 《Devouring Heavens and Earth Art》."

"《Devouring Heavens and Earth Art》? It sounds very domineering, quite fitting for the style of a top expert." This was the first time Su Feng had heard such a simple and crude Cultivation Technique name.

"Domineering? That's an ancient forbidden technique! It's an ultimate forbidden technique blacklisted by the entire Canglan Universe!!"

The Sword Soul glared at Su Feng unhappily, intentionally accentuating its tone.

"Back then, the Heavenly Emperor was busy to Cultivate and Breakthrough, battling the heavens, so he neglected to discipline Lishang. And because of some miserable encounters from wandering the Mortal Realm in her early years, Lishang possessed a morbid desire to become stronger that far exceeded ordinary people..."

Su Feng shrugged, feeling that this was completely reasonable and fair: "Isn't this very normal? In the world of cultivation, the weak are prey to the strong, and everyone desires to become stronger. As long as it's for the sake of getting stronger, extreme methods are understandable."

"You can call that normal, but her..."

Hearing Su Feng's unimpressed tone, the Sword Soul sneered, its gaze turning strange.

"If I were to tell you that in order to grow stronger, she once turned the ancient pure-blooded True Dragon raised by the Heavenly Emperor in his back garden to suppress Luck into barbecue skewers and ate them, do you think that's normal?"

Su Feng: "...Dragon meat is great for nourishing the body, so it's... somewhat justifiable?"

"Then, in order to comprehend the Law of the Lightning Dao, she ran into the Heavenly Dao Lightning Pool to take a bath, and forcibly rubbed the eye of the Heavenly Tribulation apart, causing a certain Star Domain to not experience a Lightning Tribulation for thirty thousand years. Is that result normal?!"

Su Feng's mouth twitched: "This sister... is a bit hard on the Heavenly Dao."

"This is nothing!"

The more the Sword Soul spoke, the more excited it became, as if it had finally found an audience to vent to:

"In order to study the Law of Reincarnation, she created over a thousand ways to die and experimented on herself! When the Heavenly Emperor found out, he was almost scared to death by her!"

"The most absurd part is! Once, to verify the ultimate Profound Truth of the mutual generation and restriction of the Five Elements, she directly swallowed a newborn Star Domain in one gulp! Crunchy, not even residue was left!"

"And also... Lishang, she..."

"Has some psychological issues... It's the kind where... any Cultivator who dared to speak wildly about the Heavenly Emperor, even if they were just gossiping, as long as she discovered them, she would refine them instantly and never leave them alive till tomorrow."

"Back then in the Canglan Universe, Lishang also forged a resounding reputation."

Su Feng listened in dumbfounded awe, his gaze towards the Crystal Coffin completely changing.

"So now you know why I stopped you, right?"

The Sword Soul pointed at the Crystal Coffin and earnestly advised, "This grandaunt's 《Devouring Heavens and Earth Art》 has no upper limit! Back then, after shattering her Divine Soul, she probably used some method to Seal herself away."

"Now that she has been lying in this coffin for hundreds of millions of years, guess how hungry she'll be if she wakes up right now...?"

The Sword Soul lowered its voice, as if telling a horror story:

"If you release her right now, her very first bite will definitely be to swallow you to pad her stomach!"
