Cao Ya continued refining the Eternal Blue Gold. Finally, after much hard work, the divine sword took shape. The many engraved Dao principles shone brightly for a moment before quickly dimming.
The brilliant blue light flickered on and off, carrying an air of eternity, and within this vast and boundless sea of stars, it possessed a unique and wondrous charm.
Cao Ya reached out and the Blue Gold Divine Sword fell into his palm. Holding the hilt, he merely stirred his mind and had not yet activated it when the divine sword trembled. Its unparalleled sharpness cleaved through the true fire of the sun for millions of miles, almost piercing through the star.
"Haha, what a fine sword!" Cao Ya laughed loudly, holding the Blue Gold Divine Sword with obvious delight.
This divine sword, forged from eternal blue gold, is the weapon he will use to attain enlightenment.
Throughout history, which emperor or sovereign has not possessed imperial weapons that have been renowned for eternity?
Although Cao Ya wasn't confident about becoming emperor, he at least needed to lay a solid foundation.
"Roar~~~" Suddenly, a demon from outside the galaxy broke in, roaring and howling.
The man seemed to sense the aura of the Blue Gold Divine Sword and forcibly attacked, wielding a white bone club. With a casual swing, he extinguished the True Sun Fire and charged towards the location where Cao Yali was standing.
"Hey, I just finished forging the divine sword, and someone has already come uninvited to help me test it." Cao Ya chuckled, stood up, held the blue-gold divine sword in his hand, and waited leisurely for the demon to arrive.
Although he didn't know who the newcomer was, he felt no fear whatsoever.
Just kidding. He defeated the Divine Court Emperor, who was about to attain enlightenment. Now, with the Blue Gold Divine Sword, his combat power is even stronger and his killing is fierce. Even the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone does not come out. What does he have to fear in the universe?
Even if another person is about to attain enlightenment, at most they will be similar to him, but they can never surpass him.
boom……
A figure plunged into the depths of the star, wielding a massive white bone club, piercing through the void, tearing apart the star's constraints, and displaying extraordinary divine power.
"Hmm, they're quite strong." Cao Ya raised an eyebrow, remaining calm.
"roar!
With a sudden roar, the man charged forward, radiating demonic power. His two boyish eyes were filled with madness, emitting beams of dark light that darted around wildly, displaying holy might. Each beam of dark light extinguished a true fire of the sun.
For a moment, the star's power seemed to have weakened considerably.
Upon seeing this situation, Cao Ya did not immediately kill the newcomer; instead, he was taken aback.
"This aura... is it the legacy of the Ancient Emperor of Taiyin?!" Cao Ya was surprised, never expecting to encounter an old sage with the legacy of the Ancient Emperor of Taiyin in the universe.
"It's a pity that this person has gone mad." Cao Ya sighed inwardly, extending his divine sense to sense the situation, when suddenly a thought struck him.
"Wait a minute, this person seems to possess not only Yin Holy Power, but also... Yang Holy Power?!"
Cao Ya seemed to be deep in thought; he remembered someone.
"roar!
The newcomer roared, his eyes filled with madness and devoid of any reason. He brandished a large white bone club and was about to kill Cao Ya.
Cao Ya snapped out of his daze and looked at the crazed old saint.
His face was contorted, and the dark light emanating from his pores covered his cheeks, giving him a gloomy and cold aura.
The man was emaciated, his upper body was naked, and his lower body was only covered by an animal skin. He held a large, shiny white bone club in his hand. He looked very primitive, but it gave people a creepy feeling.
A crimson iron chain, dazzling in its brilliance, bound the old sage, almost digging into his flesh. It was engraved with many Daoist patterns, intricate and profound, filled with a mysterious, wild, and ancient aura.
It is unknown who imprisoned the old sage, or perhaps they restricted him because of his madness?
However, it lacked something: the crimson divine chains were not forged from immortal gold, so they could not truly trap and kill the mad old saint.
“This attire, this appearance, and this crimson iron chain… such distinctive features, I know his identity.” Cao Ya sighed, lightly tapping the Blue Gold Divine Sword with his fingers. With a hum, a patch of azure water light floated, almost unaffected even in the depths of a star, still possessing powerful might.
The old sage, driven mad and nearly oblivious, charged forward, brandishing his massive bone club. His holy power was vast and boundless; just as it was about to strike, suddenly—
Buzz~~~
The shimmering blue water instantly suppressed the old sage, seeping into his seven orifices to subdue his madness and awaken his sanity.
"I am... the Primordial Demon! I am... Dongfang Taiyi!"
The old sage looked up to the sky and roared. The dark light in the child's eye disappeared, and clarity appeared. With Cao Ya's help, he gradually regained his sanity.
After regaining his senses, the old sage fell silent for a moment, seemingly recalling his actions during his period of madness. He did not speak for a while.
Cao Ya didn't urge him, playing with the Blue Gold Divine Sword and patiently waiting for the ancient demon Dongfang Taiyi to come back to his senses.
After a while, Dongfang Taiyi stood up, leaning on his large stick, and thanked Cao Ya:
"Thank you for your help, otherwise I don't know how long I would have gone crazy."
"It's nothing," Cao Ya waved his hand.
As he spoke, he glanced at Dongfang Taiyi and smiled:
"Old Sage, you have also become a Great Sage. If you want to prove yourself a Quasi-Emperor, this hidden danger can no longer exist. The Holy Power of the Sun and the Holy Power of the Moon must be merged, otherwise the day you become a Quasi-Emperor will also be the day you die!"
The old sage remained silent, seemingly not being good with words. After hearing Cao Ya's suggestion, he simply nodded, his expression somber.
Cao Ya didn't take it seriously.
Because he knew the identity of the old sage before him.
One of the strongest humans in the ancient times, Dongfang Taiyi was angered by the decline and weakness of the human race, which was reduced to food for all races. He forcibly cultivated the "True Scripture of the Sun" and the "True Scripture of the Moon" at the same time. He was exceptionally talented and indeed succeeded, becoming a saint all the way. He won more battles than he lost against the strongmen of various races.
Unfortunately, due to the clash between Yin and Yang, Dongfang Taiyi developed a madness.
He is a god by day and a demon by night.
This is not to say that his madness is related to day and night, but rather a question of his divinity versus his demonic nature.
Whether one is a god or a demon, time should be equal; it has been mistakenly perceived as the alternation of day and night.
Because of his madness over half the time, Dongfang Taiyi committed a great deal of killing. After all, when he was in a frenzy, he had no reason, only unparalleled power, and it was impossible for him to distinguish between humans and other races.
However, Dongfang Taiyi was ultimately a meritorious subject of the human race. Therefore, the ancient human race discussed sealing him away, firstly to save Dongfang Taiyi's life, and secondly to prevent Dongfang Taiyi from accidentally harming the human race.
As for the crimson iron chain, it was Dongfang Taiyi's doing.
The shackles he put on himself would break if his life was in danger, but would imprison Dongfang Taiyi's demonic nature if nothing was wrong.
However, since it is not made of celestial metal, how could an iron chain truly suppress a person's demonic power?
Millions of years later, Ye Fan unearthed Dongfang Taiyi from the sealed divine source. Upon first learning of the title "Human Demon," he was wary and carried it with him as a forbidden trump card to deal with a formidable enemy.
A few years ago, when Ye Fan returned to Earth and arrived at the ancient star Yinghuo, he encountered a powerful enemy. He had no choice but to release this ancient demon, and with the help of Dongfang Taiyi, he killed the powerful enemy and gained a great deal.
It was then, after conversing with the old sage, that Ye Fan gained a deeper understanding of the profound meaning of "Ancient Human Demon," and was filled with many emotions.
