Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 618 - 522: Primordial Heavenly Command!_2
With a chuckle, Tai Yin was not the gentle and generous True Self; he indeed wanted to rely on the connections and accumulation of the Purification Ones to find the Primordial Heavenly Command.
But this did not mean he wanted to lower his stance.
Sensing the firmness in Tai Yin's words, Elder He's gaze slightly shifted, pondering silently for a moment before speaking:
"The kindness of the Daoist in rescuing us, I, as an old man, am immensely grateful.
However, since it's a cooperation, it naturally cannot be swayed by emotions.
I will be straightforward with the Daoist.
The [Primordial Heavenly Command] you mentioned—we do indeed know its whereabouts.
We can even deploy personnel to assist you, Daoist, in obtaining what you seek.
But in return, we hope you, Daoist, can help us with some small tasks.
After all, as you can see, our days are not easy, and in the circumstances of not being able to preserve ourselves, we really have no surplus strength to help you.
What do you think?"
"Helping is naturally not a problem, only that I've already shown my sincerity; shouldn't you also show some sincerity as well?"
Returning the scroll to Elder He, Tai Yin calmly watched this old man.
Gazing at the scroll in his hand, Elder He remained silent momentarily; with flickering eyes, he softly said:
"Alright, then please wait a moment, Daoist."
Rising and leaving the room, Elder He went to the door and softly instructed the two Purification Ones waiting at the entrance before hastily walking away.
Fancy getting something for nothing?
Do you truly think I, a humble Daoist, am naive?
Sitting casually in the room, Tai Yin's lips slightly curled.
It's true that age brings wisdom.
This Elder He had early discerned his need for the [Primordial Heavenly Command]; otherwise, he wouldn't have followed the three including Deng Ling to the homeland of the Purification Ones.
He certainly wouldn't have helped them quell the siege of the Divine Breeders.
Thus, he intended to use the [Primordial Heavenly Command] as leverage, planning to make excessive demands.
Had he not displayed a very firm and nonchalant attitude,
this old man would definitely have proposed some very difficult, even absurd demands.
How could a person respected as a leader, who could mediate the fight between Purification Ones and Divine Breeders, be an easy adversary?
About half an hour elapsed.
Footsteps approached again; leaning back in his chair with eyes closed for rest, Tai Yin suddenly opened them slightly, his nose twitching, as if catching a wisp of familiar scent.
"Ha, at least you know better..."
"Daoist."
Returning to the chair opposite Tai Yin, Elder He held a round wooden box made from unknown material.
"This item, is it the [Primordial Heavenly Command] you are seeking?"
The wooden box was opened, and an endless ancient aura swept out, even evolving Earth Water Wind Fire in the void, surging continuously, like the mythical imagery at the world's creation.
And at the center of these mystical phenomena,
a Jade Token, shaped like flowing clouds, filled with dense purple-gold fortune, with a [Dao] character carved in ancient script at the center, was presented before Tai Yin!
His eyes flashed with Divine Light; suppressing the urge to seize the Treasure Order, Tai Yin squinted, carefully studying this [Primordial Heavenly Command].
No mistake!
This was indeed the [Primordial Heavenly Command] without doubt!
Fully confirming that the Jade Token in Elder He's hand was without doubt the [Primordial Heavenly Command], Tai Yin slowly revealed a hint of satisfaction.
"It seems Elder He is indeed sincere about cooperation."
"Hehe, naturally."
Closing the wooden box, Elder He pushed the [Primordial Heavenly Command] toward Tai Yin.
"This [Primordial Heavenly Command] is my gratitude, as an old man, for this rescue by you, Daoist.
To be honest, in recent years, as the lotus flower's invasion of this realm has become increasingly severe, more and more Divine Statues have fallen, and our numbers as Purification Ones have continued to decline.
Perhaps a century at most,
once all Divine Statues are corrupted, this world will entirely fall into the hands of that lotus flower."
Glancing at the [Primordial Heavenly Command] before him, Tai Yin casually waved, storing the Jade Token in the pouch, then spoke:
"How do you want me to help you?"
"Do you remember the divine breeder with the pig head that the Daoist killed before?"
"I remember."
"His name was Jiang Kunsan, one of the generals under the [Eight Seas Marshal] of the Four Great Families.
These Four Great Families control the entire Blood Lotus Realm.
In their hands, each holds a [Mother-and-Child Snow Lotus].
As long as we can destroy the [Mother-and-Child Snow Lotus] held by the Eight Seas Marshal, the erosion in this area will be greatly reduced.
We can then awaken many divine statues and relocate the position of our homeland."
Having expressed his request, Elder He quietly watched the Daoist of the Taiyin in front of him, hoping to detect some clues from subtle changes in his expression.
However, Tai Yin's expression remained unchanged, making it difficult for him to grasp his thoughts and intentions.
The Four Great Families, Mother-and-Child Snow Lotus, Eight Seas Marshal... According to this old man, this so-called Eight Seas Marshal should be one of that handful of people in this world with strength comparable to a Primordial Spirit True Honor.
Quietly pondering the information Elder He revealed, Tai Yin lightly tapped on the back of his hand.
My current strength is still too weak.
I can only be considered a newly ascended True Monarch of the Dao Body, without having completed even a single Dao Embodiment.
If I were to truly face that Eight Seas Marshal, who can rival a Primordial Spirit True Honor, I'm afraid it would be certain death.
However, if I can take this opportunity to uncover the true nature of the Eight Seas Marshal, it would be worth it.
With a slight movement of his eyes, Tai Yin slowly nodded:
"Alright, I'll take on this task."
Upon hearing Tai Yin agree, Elder He showed a trace of joy.
"But I need some time to prepare, and during this period, I need you to hand over all the books in your possession."
"No problem, I'll have someone prepare them immediately."
Without a moment of hesitation, Elder He fully complied with Tai Yin's request, as long as he could kill the Eight Seas Marshal and destroy that Mother-and-Child Snow Lotus.
He would even be willing to kneel and offer him a seat.
...
Rumble—
The ground trembled endlessly, the sound of a stampede like mountains and seas shaking, causing the accumulated snow on the mountains to fall, forming terrifyingly large avalanches.
"Jiang Kunsan's aura disappeared here!"
In the center of a divine breeder army, like a tide of flesh and blood, a woman in a white gauzy dress, her complexion pale, with countless butterfly shadows floating around her, hovered in mid-air, her blood-streaked eyes continuously scanning the surroundings.
"Dig three feet into the ground if you must, find him for me."
With a piercing sharp screech, the white-clad woman issued a command, and the hundreds of thousands of divine breeders beside her simultaneously erupted with the divine marvel power accumulated within their bodies, manifesting grotesquely twisted, bloody, and ugly divine statue shadows, furiously bombarding the ground, digging towards the earth's depths.
While these divine breeders were frantically digging into the ground,
a black wind, invisible to the naked eye and wandering between the virtual and the real, had already emerged from the ground, coming atop this group of divine breeders.
Rolling up his sleeves and gazing at the countless divine breeders before him, the red light in Tai Yin's eyes shone brightly, unable to suppress a gentle laugh:
"Good, very good indeed."
With a sweep of his large sleeve, two divine lights flew out from within Tai Yin's robe.
One was the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner!
The other was the Blood Transformation Divine Saber!
Looking at the densely packed divine breeders below, numbering like ants, Tai Yin took a deep breath, feeling the boiling killing intent in his chest:
"Having endured for so long, it's time for this poor Daoist to stretch a bit."
Before the words were finished, the Blood Transformation Divine Saber in Tai Yin's left hand flew out first, piercing into the crowd like a meteor.
Wherever the Divine Blade passed, boundless blood splashed, the air filled with a thick scent of blood.
The divine breeders touched by the blood light didn't even have time to scream before they turned into pools of blood, merging into that bloody ocean.
On the other side, the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner also displayed its terrifying power.
Swirling black fog surged out, like ghosts hovering above the battlefield.
The vicious and violent aura within the black fog made one's blood run cold, as White Bone Strongmen leaped out, charging towards the divine breeders with unstoppable force, shattering mountains and cracking peaks, leaving them half-dead, and then ruthlessly throwing them into the banner to be refined into new White Bone Strongmen, joining this brutal battle.
In an instant, with just the saber and banner, Tai Yin suppressed the army of hundreds of thousands of divine breeders.
On the battlefield, the blood light of the Blood Transformation Divine Saber intertwined with the black fog of the White Bone Mysterious Yin Banner, creating a chilling scene.
