Chapter 1780: Hongtian Battles the Desire Elder

The person before him could use blood to activate the Savage's skeleton, which was only possible if they shared the same origin and bloodline.

"He is my grandfather!"

Chenyong Emperor said without concealment.

"Grandfather?" Zhang Xuan was startled.

He had thought it was a descendant many generations removed, but the relationship was this close.

The Savage was a super powerhouse who lived tens of thousands of years ago, and Chenyong Emperor was his grandson. The lifespan of the Alien Spirit Race was truly unbelievable.

No wonder the sternum's emergence had attracted him.

"The Spirit God told me that you, young master, have already collected many of my grandfather's bones and asked me to cooperate fully. Since that's the case, I'll give you these arms. Although they won't restore grandfather to his peak strength, they should be enough to restore him to the level of Blood Rebirth."

Chenyong Emperor flicked his wrist, and the arms that had fallen to the ground flew over.

"Thank you!"

He was indeed collecting the Savage's skeleton. Since the other party was offering, there was no need to be polite.

The Book of Heaven's Path flew out, and with a gentle shake, the arm bones completely fused with the Savage within the book.

"Did you eliminate the consciousness within?"

Feeling that the arms and body had perfectly merged without conflict, preventing the Savage from falling into a coma, Zhang Xuan asked in confusion.

"The Spirit God helped me eliminate the consciousness that had arisen earlier. Now it's my own consciousness. Since I'm giving it to you, young master, I naturally wouldn't dare keep it..." Chenyong Emperor nodded.

Having witnessed the talent of the young man before him, and considering his relationship with the Spirit God, even he dared not act recklessly.

The Spirit God's power—Chenling Emperor and Chenxing Emperor had little contact with it and didn't know much, but he was well aware.

As the other had said, if it were truly unleashed, even the Master Teacher Continent would be unable to withstand it and would shatter directly!

How could someone favored and liked by such a powerhouse have low future achievements?

Therefore, he wouldn't miss the opportunity to build a good relationship, especially since the other had just saved his life.

"Much obliged!"

Seeing that the other had been thoughtful, Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Without conflicting consciousness, the Savage wouldn't fall into a coma. Thus, as long as enough power was given, he could recover fully and become even stronger!

With a point of his finger, a jade bottle of Alien Spirit Race ancient sage blood drilled into the book. The next moment, the hand bones perfectly fused with the Savage's body, and waves of powerful energy surged forth.

"Consolidate your cultivation well..."

After instructing, he closed the Book of Heaven's Path and returned it to the library.

"By the way, young master, that straw rain cape was left by my grandfather. If you can refine it and fuse it with the skeleton, it can completely generate flesh and blood!" Chenyong Emperor pointed into the air.

"It can generate flesh and blood?" Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.

The Savage in the Book of Heaven's Path was still just a skeleton. According to the other's method, generating flesh and blood required devouring master teachers.

Naturally, he couldn't do that, so it had been put on hold.

Unexpectedly, this straw rain cape could generate flesh and blood.

No wonder the immensely powerful arms had stopped upon encountering the cape. This thing had such an amazing effect.

With a flicker, he arrived before the cape and gently touched it.

"What are you doing? This is the Spirit Emperor's treasured artifact..."

Seeing his action, the Desire Elder, who was healing, darkened his expression.

Before he could finish, a sword beam shot straight over.

Puchi! Puchi!

Two bloody holes appeared on his body, and blood spurted wildly.

"Zhang Hongtian, what the hell are you doing?"

Turning his head, the Desire Elder was about to go crazy.

The attacker was none other than Zhang Xuan's ancestor, Zhang Hongtian.

Although they had grudges before, they had just fought side by side against Chenyong Emperor. Why was he now attacking him directly?

"Nothing much. Earlier, we were forced to join forces to kill the enemy. Now it's time to settle our personal grievances..."

With a cold snort, Zhang Hongtian raised his longsword, a chill emanating from him.

Earlier, to avoid affecting the Hundred Schools of Philosophers' plan, he was compelled to join forces with the other. Now that the matter with Chenyong Emperor was resolved, it was time to settle old scores.

"Settle grievances? Fine, do you think I'm afraid of you?" The Desire Elder stood up. "But let me say in advance: if you lose, obediently let us leave!"

After the battle, it wasn't that he didn't want to leave, but the many ancient sages from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers and the Master Teacher Hall were watching covetously, so he dared not flee.

Since this fellow wanted to settle personal grievances, he might as well resolve this matter too.

Fearing that the humans would wipe them all out after killing Chenyong Emperor, he had held back some strength during the battle. Now, although he was injured, it was much lighter than Zhang Hongtian's. In a real fight, it was uncertain who would live and who would die.

"I agree!" Zhang Hongtian nodded and looked around. "Everyone, the Desire Elder and I are settling personal grievances today. If I am killed, it means I am inferior in skill. No one should avenge me; let him leave."

"Hongtian Ancient Sage..."

Unexpected that he would make this decision, Yan Qing Ancient Sage was startled and frowned, wanting to dissuade him.

"My mind is made up!"

Zhang Hongtian waved his hand.

Even if it was part of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers' plan, joining forces with an Alien Spirit clansman was a great humiliation. So today, either he died or the other died—there was no other way.

Otherwise, he would have no face to face the ancestors who died on the battlefield.

This was his conviction and his pride.

"Make your move!"

Having made his decision, Zhang Hongtian wasted no more words. His longsword shot out, and sword energy rained down, immediately enveloping the Desire Elder.

"Hmph!"

Seeing that the other's attack, under severe injury, had indeed weakened considerably, the Desire Elder breathed a sigh of relief. A pair of ghost claws suddenly appeared.

Ding ding ding ding!

The two clashed together.

Both were powerhouses at the Blood Rebirth level with numerous techniques, and for a time, the battle was evenly matched.

"Hongtian Ancient Sage used all his strength in the fight against Chenyong Emperor and is severely injured. I'm afraid he won't be a match..."

An ancient sage from the Master Teacher Hall couldn't help saying.

"The Desire Elder is extremely cunning. In the current exchange, he is clearly stalling for time, waiting for Hongtian Ancient Sage to exhaust himself before counterattacking... Should we help?"

Another ancient sage also showed concern.

The battle between the two looked exquisite and evenly matched, but in fact, as ancient sages, they could easily see that Hongtian Ancient Sage's power was far from before. If the fight continued, he would grow weaker and weaker, even endangering his life.

In contrast, the Desire Elder had much more stamina, constantly moving and probing for opportunities.

"Don't worry, Hongtian Ancient Sage won't lose!"

Yang shi smiled.

"Won't lose?"

The two ancient sages who had just spoken were puzzled.

With their strength, they couldn't see this. How could you, a fellow who just broke through, be so certain?

Seeing their confusion, Yang shi did not explain but looked up at the young man in the air who was refining the straw rain cape.

This young man had given Hongtian Ancient Sage a jade token that recorded the flaws in the Desire Elder's cultivation. Knowing these, if Hongtian Ancient Sage still couldn't win, he wouldn't believe it.
