Chapter 315 The Great Black Heaven Demon Lord

With the Eagle God slain, Yan Chu's heart did not relax; instead, it grew more heavy.

A pressure several times more terrifying than before descended upon him, as if trying to repel him from this world.

Heaven and earth, having lost the target that was the Sky-Rending Eagle God, now treated Yan Chu as their sole target.

Crackle!

A bolt of lightning from a clear sky exploded by Yan Chu's ear.

This was a warning. In the next second, several thick bolts of lightning struck down. A scorched smell filled the air as Yan Chu shifted horizontally for dozens of miles to dodge the lightning, immediately restraining his aura.

This caused the lightning to stop temporarily, but the thunderclouds gathering above were still restless.

A wisp of thought emanated from the sun-shooting divine bow:

“You must quickly enter Chilie Mountain to hide. Otherwise, the world's repulsive force will grow stronger, and you will likely die under the Lightning Tribulation!”

After a great battle, the sun-shooting divine bow might not have completely submitted to Yan Chu, but at least it no longer repelled him as it had at the beginning.

Ultimately, it was just a peerless divine weapon that needed someone to wield it.

And Yan Chu, who could easily fire dozens of arrows with his own strength, was undoubtedly the best candidate to wield the sun-shooting divine bow.

Now that Yan Chu had condensed the Innate Fetal Respiration, his body would slowly transform into a Primordial Fetal Body. His aura would become stronger and increasingly conspicuous within the world.

As a Blessed Land, Chilie Mountain was equivalent to its own small world. As long as he hid within it, he could evade the world's perception and no longer worry about being repelled by heaven and earth.

Of course, the downside was obvious: he would likely have to stay within the Blessed Land for the rest of his life. If he appeared again, he would face an even more severe Lightning Tribulation.

Yan Chu frowned deeply; he certainly didn't want that.

He would either break through the world and undergo Ascension or stay in the mortal world; he was unwilling to die of old age in such a confined space.

But what other way was there?

At that moment, he looked coldly at a dark cloud hundreds of miles away.

Pfft!

A burst of Saber Qi bloomed, and the dark cloud shattered. A handsome young man in black, with a face like jade and long hair draped over his shoulders, rushed out from the broken clouds, looking at Yan Chu with a solemn gaze.

“I am Meng Ao, greetings to the Northern Mang Great Khan!”

Yan Chu looked at him coldly, realizing the person's identity.

“Meng Ao? The Leader of the Great Black Heavenly Demon Cult?”

The young man in black bowed elegantly and cupped his hands.

“It is indeed I. Your prestige is like thunder to my ears. Even living in a remote place, I have long heard of it. Please forgive me, Great Khan, for not visiting the Imperial Court in person!”

“What are you doing hiding here?”

Meng Ao smiled and explained:

“The Sky-Rending Eagle God descended with peerless ferocity. Your battle with him shocked the world. I came to watch out of admiration, with no other intentions. I hope the Great Khan is magnanimous enough not to take it to heart!”

Yan Chu's expression was noncommittal as he said faintly:

“When Luan Di Tianye ruled Northern Mang, your Great Black Heavenly Demon Cult submitted to the Northern Mang Imperial Court and followed its orders. Now that Northern Mang honors me, I don't see the Great Black Heavenly Demon Cult coming to pay respects. Could it be you think I am inferior to Luan Di Tianye?”

“Absolutely not!”

Meng Ao spoke hastily:

“My Great Black Heavenly Demon Cult and the Northern Mang Imperial Court have always had a cooperative relationship, or more precisely, a cooperative relationship with the Longevity Cult. We do not belong to the Luan Di Clan.”

“Now that you rule Northern Mang, we can also cooperate with you!”

“Is that so? What can you cooperate with me on? And why should I cooperate with you?”

As he spoke, Yan Chu stepped aside, dodging a thousand-foot-long lightning bolt that struck down. The thunderclouds above began to roll again, seemingly locking onto Yan Chu's position.

A flash of wariness crossed Meng Ao's eyes.

Yan Chu's movement technique was elusive, leaving him unable to detect even a trace of its path.

With the enhancement of the Innate Fetal Respiration, his connection with the wind grew tighter, and the speed of the Nine Heavens Profound Wind increased by several tenths.

He was indeed a being capable of slaughtering a god's Incarnation.

His strength was not inferior to the first Khan of Northern Mang; he was a truly top-tier figure in this world.

Since Meng Ao had come here, he was well-prepared.

He spoke unhurriedly:

“Looking at your state, Great Khan, you must have already broken through the Three Flowers and condensed the Innate Fetal Respiration, right?”

Only power of this level could shock the entire Great Grassland with a battle, drawing the attention of people even in the Southern Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of miles away.

“What if I have?”

Yan Chu's voice was ethereal, and his figure had already vanished.

But Meng Ao could feel that extremely oppressive gaze on him, making him feel like there were needles in his back.

So he continued:

“Condensing the Innate Fetal Respiration and breaking through the world's limits will draw the targeting of the world's power.”

“In this situation, there are only two ways. One is to hide in a Blessed Land and never come out, eventually dying of old age. The second is to find the legendary Heavenly Pillar Mountain, climb the Heavenly Pillar, enter the Heavenly Gate, and leave this world!”

“Recently, with the war in the Southern Dynasty, news has spread that Heavenly Pillar Mountain, which has been missing for thousands of years, is about to reappear, and some signs have already emerged.”

“Currently, major powers like the Buddhist and Daoist Sects are suppressing this news, wanting to enter first and block others from climbing the Heavenly Pillar. The situation in the Southern Dynasty has become increasingly chaotic.”

“I wish to cooperate with you, Great Khan, to enter Heavenly Pillar Mountain together!”

“Oh? As you say, the Great Black Heavenly Demon Cult alone is no match for the Buddhist and Daoist Sects. If I cooperate with you, what benefits can you give me?”

Yan Chu's voice suddenly appeared by Meng Ao's ear, startling him. In the next second, it appeared at the horizon. Such a movement technique left him inwardly terrified.

Originally, he thought that with his cultivation at the level of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown...

Even if he wasn't Yan Chu's match, he could always escape using the mysteries of the Black Heaven Sun-Obscuring Technique.

But now it seemed that was likely just wishful thinking.

He cleared his throat and said:

“Our cult holds the Great Black Heavenly Demon as its supreme faith. We have a cloak made from the Heavenly Demon Remnant, which can deceive the heavenly secrets. As long as you cooperate with me, I am willing to offer this cloak, and you won't have to worry about the world's repulsion!”

“Truly? Where is the cloak?”

A flash of light appeared on Meng Ao's wrist, and a black cloak appeared in his hand; it was unclear where he had taken it from.

As soon as the cloak appeared, it was sucked away by an invisible force.

In the next moment, the thunderclouds above were still churning, but no more lightning fell.

After a while, the thunderclouds slowly dissipated, and the sun reappeared, shedding billions of rays of light.

In the distance, Yan Chu was wearing the black cloak. Indeed, the feeling of being repelled by the world was gone, and his body and mind felt much more comfortable.

Meng Ao stepped forward, cupped his hands, and smiled:

“Great Khan, how do you feel? Is it effective?”

Yan Chu couldn't help but sigh inwardly. As expected of a great cult that had been passed down for thousands of years, its foundation was indeed deep.

Thinking about it, sects like Qingyang Palace and Nalanda Temple must have even more precious treasures, and there might very well be terrifying old monsters hidden within them.

He had always thought his strength was invincible, but it seemed he had still underestimated the heroes of the world.
