Chapter 1510: Guardian's Declaration
While the Zombie God was reappearing, the Western Desert's Bloodsin City was also in a state of emergency due to the devil invasion from the Devil Domain's entrance they guarded. Thus, the entire Western Desert sank into a crisis. Additionally, numerous ferocious beings had appeared all over the dominion. Slowly but surely, the dominion sank into chaos.
As a response, the Guardians Guild issued a Guardian's Declaration. Any cultivator of the dominion, regardless of cultivation level, only needed to produce outstanding contributions in the dominion's efforts against the foreign fiends to obtain the title "Guardian."
Anyone with the title would be accorded the highest glory, obtaining the Guardians Guild's protection wherever they went. A Guardian would also receive the Guardians Guild's support in terms of cultivation resources and might even become a new lord guardian in the future. This declaration provoked the populace to join hands and start working against evil to protect the dominion.
At this time, Xiang Shaoyun was still on his way to the Dragon Phoenix Academy. He intended to tell his master about the Zombie God. But this time, his master was not around. Something major had to have happened somewhere else, to the point even his master was deployed.
Xiang Shaoyun felt somewhat regretful, but he decided to move on. He had Lang Chen gather the wolf guards. His next plan was to pay the Yu Clan a visit before heading toward the Dusk Dynasty to fulfill his promise of guarding the Devil Domain's entrance for three years.
The 65 wolf guards were all ready for Xiang Shaoyun's command. They all had wolf heads and human bodies, members of the wolfman race. Of the 65, 25 of them were Saints, and the rest were Sovereigns. With not one of them being weaker than the Sovereign Realm, they made for a powerful group.
Xiang Shaoyun also learned from Lang Chen that there were a few other wolf guard squads much stronger than them. This was merely the weakest of the wolf guard squads. Xiang Shaoyun could only imagine how powerful the other squads were.
"Come with me," said Xiang Shaoyun. He had decided to set off toward the Yu Clan immediately because the marriage date between the Di and Yu Clans was getting near. He would not allow Yu Caidie to get married to Di Mie. Although he believed that Yu Caidie would not turn against him, her clan might not allow her to do as she wished.
Devil Concubine grew jealous when she heard that Xiang Shaoyun was going to the Yu Clan. She asked, "If I'm in the same position, would you act as reckless for me as well?"
Xiang Shaoyun wrapped his arm around her waist and said, "Of course. Nobody can lay a finger on my woman."
"Hearing that much from you is enough for me. However, the Yu Clan is no weaker than the Darkdevil Sect. With the few people we have, what can we achieve there?" asked Devil Concubine.
"I believe you will serve as the perfect trump card to plant some fear in those old fellows," said Xiang Shaoyun mysteriously. "The Yu Clan cares a lot about their reputation. They wouldn't dare to push me too much."
"Um. Then, we'll do as you wish," said Devil Concubine with a nod.
The conversation ended. Seated atop Money, Xiang Shaoyun shifted his focus into his astral cosmos sea. An entirely different project was ongoing within his body. After the astral cosmos sea transformed into a true star, he had obtained full control over everything in the astral cosmos sea as the master of the star.
The coffin containing his father was placed at the location with the densest primal inception energy. He hoped that the primal inception energy would be helpful for his father to fully receive the inheritance and leave the coffin.
As for the old drunkard, all the death energy on his body had been cleansed by Xiang Shaoyun. He was in the process of feeding the old drunkard one of the rebirth flower's petals, trying to see if the flower could really revive the old drunkard.
The rebirth flower was known as a miraculous plant capable of bringing one back from death. The flower was so high grade that it had produced its own wisdom. An adorable face was visible on the flower.
Xiang Shaoyun did not intend to waste the one rebirth flower he had. He planned to plant the flower in his astral cosmos sea and only use some of its petals on the old drunkard. After inserting a petal into Old Drunkard's mouth, he started spreading the petal's energy throughout the old drunkard's body.
Immediately, the petal showcased how extraordinary the rebirth flower was. The energy immediately wrapped the old drunkard's body in a layer of pure energy. The energy nourished not only his body but also the space within his head, helping him reform his soul.
Upon sensing that the old drunkard was slowly regaining his vitality, Xiang Shaoyun heaved a breath of relief and said, "Finally, Old Drunkard is saved."
Because the old drunkard needed to reform his soul, he wouldn't wake up anytime soon. With the free time he had, Xiang Shaoyun started studying the token he had received from Venerable Yuan Shi.
The token was definitely not ordinary. It was most likely made of god-grade materials. An ancient character of the word "Guard" was carved on it. On the other side, the ancient character for "Dominion" could be seen. Markings of dragons and phoenixes ran all over the token, making it look incredibly majestic.
"Guarding the dominion. That is the sole objective of the Guardians Guild. Looks like this is definitely Venerable Yuan Shi's token. As the first guild master of the Guardians Guild, does his token signify supreme authority?" muttered Xiang Shaoyun to himself.
He attempted to channel his energy into the token, but nothing happened. Thus, he stopped studying the token. He redirected his attention to process the inheritance he had received from Venerable Yuan Shi. He had to properly digest what he had obtained.
Apart from the two strands of God Realm energy, the inheritance also included Venerable Yuan Shi's understanding of the alien races, such as the types of races, their powerful abilities, and their weaknesses. This was all information no regular person would know. There was no doubt that this information would grant him some advantages in his future encounter with the alien races.
As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy to emerge victorious in every battle.
Apart from that, Venerable Yuan Shi's cultivation method, the Primordial Technique, was also part of the inheritance. The Primordial Technique was a top-tier technique that required one to possess a Primal Chaos Physique to cultivate it. After all, Venerable Yuan Shi himself was the owner of a Primal Chaos Physique. His physique was one of the reasons he had managed to become the strongest lord guardian of his time.
If Xiang Shaoyun had not obtained the Desolation mantra, the Primordial Technique would have probably been the perfect cultivation method for him.
"With the dominion in chaos, more experts need to rise. This Primordial Technique should probably not stay with me," said Xiang Shaoyun.
He recalled Dugu Qiubai, the Primal Chaos Physique cultivator he knew. The Primordial Technique would probably be better suited for Dugu Qiubai. However, Dugu Qiubai was an extremely prideful individual. Even if he was to give the technique to Dugu Qiubai, his gift might be rejected.
"I'll let fate decide who will be the one to obtain this technique," muttered Xiang Shaoyun with a sigh. He then stopped dwelling on the matter.
