Da Yu replied indifferently, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."
"Whether you understand or not, you know best in your heart," Gonggong said coldly. "I thought you had truly transcended and gained immortality, but it seems you only have a wisp of a soul left. Do you really think you can deal with me with just this wisp of a soul?"
Before Yu could answer, a faint voice sounded from the side: "Xiang Liu just said something similar, and the result was..."
Gonggong suddenly turned around, his empty eye sockets staring straight at Zu'an: "What happened?"
"He was defeated in one move," Zuan replied.
He was unsure what was going on with this Yu the Great, and various conspiracy theories flashed through his mind. He was afraid that if Gonggong was careless, he would be easily dealt with by this Yu the Great, and then he would be left to face the unfathomable Yu the Great alone, which would be troublesome.
He couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. Not long ago, he had been hoping that Gonggong would be eliminated as soon as possible, but now he was worried about him. How unpredictable life is!
"You killed him?" Gonggong stared intently at Yu the Great. Xiangliu was his most trusted subordinate, and his position in his heart was extraordinary.
Da Yu did not answer, but instead said directly, "Gonggong, so much time has passed, it's time to settle our grudges."
As he spoke, he slowly walked forward, exuding an extremely pure aura of royalty. His eyes showed no trace of worldly concerns, but rather resembled the primordial chaos of the universe, with the sun, moon, and stars revolving, interwoven with countless Daoist principles and laws.
Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue had been stuck in their respective cultivation levels for many years. Now, just by looking into each other's eyes, they felt a tremor in their hearts. The cultivation problems that had troubled them for many years suddenly loosened up, and countless inspirations surged into their minds. They had a vague feeling that as long as they spent time preserving this state, they would soon have an epiphany.
Yu Yanluo's cultivation level was inferior to the two of them, but her method of leveling up was different from that of ordinary humans.
The Holy Spirit Pearl within her body emitted a strange vibration, and she felt that Medusa's bloodline seemed to be awakening in more ways.
Zu'an was pondering another question. Because of Shun's guidance, he had subconsciously regarded Yu the Great as the villain.
Yet, the way Yu the Great moved before us was so natural and harmonious that we could not feel any fear or oppression. Instead, it made us feel close to him and admire him with heartfelt respect.
This aura was so much more comfortable than the chilling aura emanating from Gonggong. Could this be the big boss I was imagining?
No, we can't judge a book by its cover. Have we forgotten about guys like Yue Buqun and Zhuge Shenhou? Who knows how deeply they've been hiding their true intentions?
At this moment, Gonggong snorted coldly, clearly feeling extremely uncomfortable with the opponent's aura. He raised his hands, and countless black wisps condensed into ferocious ghosts and beasts, rushing towards the opponent.
Although those figures were merely ethereal manifestations of black mist, each one exuded a power even more terrifying than a giant dragon. Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue knew that they couldn't even handle one of these black mist creatures.
However, when these terrifying beings approached within a zhang of Yu the Great, they seemed to dissolve into nothingness as if residual blood were meeting the scorching sun.
“Da Yu, it seems your cultivation has reached a new level.” Gonggong’s expression changed.
Zuan secretly thought to himself, "This guy is clearly a skull, yet he can make such a wide range of expressions. Nobody else can do that."
A hint of melancholy appeared in Da Yu's eyes: "When I became the ruler of China and was revered by all the people, the power of faith truly helped me to reach a different level of understanding."
"The power of faith?" Gonggong cried out, "This power of faith should have been mine! You stole what rightfully belonged to me!"
Yu the Great looked at him with a hint of pity: "I know that your Yan Emperor lineage has been dissatisfied with losing to the Yellow Emperor lineage in the struggle for the world. From the early Shennong clan to Chiyou, the first Gonggong, and you, generation after generation have resisted and failed. Have you not yet come to your senses?"
"Stop lecturing me!" Gonggong roared. "I admit you have mastered the power of faith. In my prime, I am probably no match for you back then. But you are nothing but a remnant soul now. What are you so proud of!"
[I highly recommend Yeguo Reading; it's really good for tracking books. You can download it here: yeguoyuedu. Give it a try!]
"Why do you think I left this remnant soul behind?" Da Yu looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Gonggong coldly replied, "It can't be so that I can talk to you when the seal is broken in the future, can it?"
“I didn’t expect that being sealed for tens of thousands of years would make you so humorous,” Da Yu smiled faintly. “The reason I left this remnant soul behind was to prevent you from breaking the seal and causing havoc on the world one day.”
"Hahahaha~" Gonggong laughed loudly, shaking the entire tomb. After a long while, he finally stopped laughing. "Wait until I destroy your remnant soul, then I'll show you who's telling jokes!"
After he finished speaking, he raised his hands, and the entire mausoleum began to shake violently, as if an earthquake had struck.
Yan Xuehen hurriedly reminded everyone, "Be careful, this tomb has a defensive array that can deflect force, yet it is still trembling so violently. Obviously, something big is about to happen."
As soon as she finished speaking, the surrounding walls suddenly cracked open, and streams of water shot out. Then, more and more places broke open, and a torrent of floodwater rushed out.
Zuan then remembered that Gonggong was known as the God of Water, and hurriedly used the Blue Duck's skill to create a space in the water to take the three women into it.
Gonggong glanced at them with some confusion, clearly wondering why they had such a strong affinity for water.
