Immortal of the Nine Realms-Chapter 833: Day Walker Stone Dragon
Chapter 833: Day Walker Stone Dragon
Fang Chen's expression turned thoughtful. "These Yin Lifespan Coins... are they for Monarch Yan to enjoy himself, or...?"
As his mind stirred, a strange thought emerged. It seemed like this thought had always existed in his memory.
Imperial Order....
It turned out that these Yin Lifespan Coins were used for commanding Ghost Gods.
Fang Chen was surprised. "So Monarch Yan's path is this seal that allows him to give the Imperial Order? It's not some cultivation technique, but rather it was its special function that led the outside world to mistakenly believe that Monarch Yan's cultivation method has some mysterious power?"
"Then how exactly do I give a command?"
Just as the thought arose, countless methods appeared in Fang Chen's mind, one after another, easily numbering in the hundreds or thousands.
From commanding Yin Soldiers and Ghost Gods, different positions and different cultivation levels had different methods.
Gradually, Fang Chen began to understand Monarch Yan's Seal.
This item was likely an extremely special treasure of the underworld. He wasn't sure if the underworld had Immortal Artifacts, but just from the power the Monarch Yan's Seal demonstrated, it seemed to control a power called "authority."
This power was probably unique in the Underworld. Even the most powerful Yin Demon, who could rival true immortals, couldn't grasp this kind of power.
Outside the courtyard, Xing Xian was gradually becoming anxious, constantly glancing inside the courtyard.
Fang Chen had been inside for quite a while, yet no movement had come from within. This made Xing Xian uneasy, wondering if Fang Chen could successfully inherit Monarch Yan's path and wield Monarch Yan's power.
"Should I go in and take a look?" Xing Xian murmured softly. "Just a quick look... there shouldn't be any problem..."
As he thought this, he suddenly heard footsteps approaching. He quickly looked up and saw Fang Chen walking out of the courtyard.
Xing Xian took a deep breath and asked cautiously, "Young Master Fang, how did it go?"
Fang Chen smiled and nodded slightly. He slowly raised his palm. On it rested Monarch Yan's Seal.

When Xing Xian saw the Monarch Yan's Seal, it was as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt. He froze for several breaths, then suddenly knelt down with a loud thud, repeatedly bowing his head. "I pay my respects to you, Monarch Yan!"
Fang Chen put the seal away and said, "Please rise. We have a problem."
Xing Xian quickly stood up, his expression filled with utmost respect. "Please speak, Monarch Yan."
"How many Yin Lifespan Coins do you have left?" Fang Chen asked.
To command a basic Yin Soldier, 1 year of Yin Lifespan was required. That was easy enough. However, to command a Great Yin Demon, at least 5,000 years of Yin Lifespan were needed. He was still short by 2,000 years.
"Yin Lifespan Coins? I still have some. Some of my old colleagues gave them to me just for this moment," Xing Xian said excitedly.
He quickly pulled out several pouches from his clothing. There were a total of 8 pouches, each containing 500 Yin Lifespan Coins, amounting to 4,000 years of Yin Lifespan!
"This should be enough." Fang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. "I can give you an imperial order now. With it, you should be able to rescue Empress Ci."
Xing Xian spoke in a low voice. "Monarch Yan, the Taiyin Dragon King and the True Monarch of Pan Mountain are stronger than Empress Ci. However... their strength should still fall within the realm of a first cycle Great Yin Demon.
"In Shaohua City, I know of a top-tier, first-cycle Great Yin Demon. With a sealing order, it should be enough to rescue Empress Ci."
He paused, a look of worry appearing on his face. "Monarch Yan, with your current cultivation... if you forcefully seal a first cycle Great Yin Demon, it might affect your foundation... Perhaps we should wait for now? You can return to the Mortal Realm and continue your cultivation in seclusion. Once we have enough strength, we can rescue Empress Ci."
Fang Chen's eyes flickered. It seemed that Xing Xian didn't fully understand how Monarch Yan's seal worked, thinking that it was based on Monarch Yan's cultivation. In reality, it was the Yin Lifespan that was the key.
At that moment, the guardian slowly walked over, giving Xing Xian a cold glance before looking at Fang Chen. "Monarch Yan, I can use the Imperial Order. If you need to rescue anyone, I can help."
Xing Xian's face darkened with anger. "How dare you! You, a mere guardian, dare to make decisions for Monarch Yan? Who Monarch Yan chooses to confer the Imperial Order on is not for anyone else to intervene. Are you planning a rebellion?"
At that moment, he completely forgot that the guardian's cultivation was unfathomable. The guardian's words had clearly touched upon Xing Xian's reverse scale.
"He is too powerful. Do you think we are ready to face the consequences if we anger him right now?" Fang Chen transmitted.
Xing Xian froze, his expression becoming awkward.
"Senior, what is your cultivation level? I don't know if I can command you," Fang Chen said with a smile, bowing respectfully to the guardian.
The guardian answered indifferently, "Monarch Yan, there is no need to be so polite. Now that you possess Monarch Yan's Seal, even though my cultivation surpasses yours, there is no need for such formalities. My cultivation is not high; I am merely at the grand completion stage of the first cycle. You can command me as you wish."
He's at the grand completion stage of the first cycle? The same level as Empress Ci, Taiyin Dragon King, and True Monarch of Pan Mountain?
Fang Chen was a bit skeptical. The aura the old man gave off seemed far beyond that level.
Fang Chen pondered for a moment and asked, "May I ask your name, Senior?"
"I am Stone Dragon." replied the guardian casually.
Fang Chen nodded in understanding, then turned and returned to the bamboo house. After a short while, the Yin Lifespan Coins that Xing Xian had given were absorbed into Monarch Yan's Seal.
Yin Lifespan: 7000 years.
Fang Chen's thoughts stirred, and yin energy gathered in front of him, transforming into ink.
In just a few moments, he completed an Imperial Order. After that, he pressed Monarch Yan's Seal onto it.
Instantly, 5,000 years of Yin Lifespan surged forth and flowed into the seal.
Fang Chen left the courtyard and handed the sealing order to the Stone Dragon.
Xing Xian had been watching the sealing order closely. Upon seeing the familiar seal and aura, his eyes grew warm with emotion.
How many years had it been since he last saw a sealing order?
"Is it from the Day Walker lineage?" Stone Dragon glanced at the sealing order, and a faint smile appeared on his face. "Monarch Yan, is there some trouble in the Mortal Realm that requires me to resolve?"
"Senior Stone Dragon, it's just in case there is any trouble. If there is, I hope you can lend a hand," Fang Chen replied with a smile.
This sealing order was for a Day Walker, but not the kind from the Lesser Underworld.
In the Greater Underworld's Day Walker lineage, even the lowestrank Day Walker had to be a first-cycle Great Yin Demon to hold such a position. Regular Yin Soldiers like Xing Xian wouldn't be able to command them.
In the Lesser Underworld, Day Walkers could only roam the Mortal Realm, judging the good and evil of people, but they couldn't affect the world.
However, in the Greater Underworld, Day Walkers were different. As long as they were willing to consume Yin Lifespan, they could enter the Mortal Realm directly by crossing the forgotten river. They didn't need to go through the Yellow Springs of the Lesser Underworld.
Moreover, they would briefly possess power and abilities comparable to those they had in the Greater Underworld.
This meant that Fang Chen had gained a powerful ally, a First Rate Sect Leader who could be summoned from the Underworld to the Mortal Realm at any time. Furthermore, it would only cost him a bit of Yin Lifespan
Stone Dragon cupped his hands and bowed in respect. "Greetings, Monarch Yan."
The Imperial Order transformed into points of golden light that flowed into Stone Dragon, forming a blazing sun imprint on his forehead.
The blazing sun flickered a few times before gradually fading away.
