Chapter 5727
Chen Ping nodded, satisfied. “Very good. It wasn’t in vain that I swept through the Nine Heavens to gather materials for you.”
Just as Chen Ping finished speaking, his storage ring suddenly stirred, and the little Devouring Beast rushed out.
Upon seeing the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord, the little Devouring Beast quickly approached and licked him.
The Crimson Cloud Demon Lord also stroked the little Devouring Beast, his eyes filled with guilt.
His mount, the Devouring Beast, had died in battle.
Unexpectedly, in its final moments, it had laid an egg.
The little Devouring Beast was still very young, but it already knew to recognize its master.
“Now that I’ve recovered, I won’t make things difficult for the Myriad Laws Sect anymore…” the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord said to Chen Ping.
Chen Ping was slightly taken aback; he hadn’t expected the bloodthirsty Crimson Cloud Demon Lord to say such a thing.
“That’s not like you,” Chen Ping laughed.
“It’s just that I’ve been with you for so long, I caught your style.” The Crimson Cloud Demon Lord rolled his eyes.
“Hahaha…”
The two laughed simultaneously.
“Old Black, retreat…”
Chen Ping uttered the word “retreat,” and the entire dragon army followed him away.
The Myriad Laws Sect suffered minimal losses, only a slight loss of face.
“Do you need me to help you deal with the Soul Devourer?”
After leaving the Myriad Laws Sect, the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord asked Chen Ping.
“No need. I feel incredibly strong right now. You should go find your little lover.”
Chen Ping smiled faintly.
He knew that the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord couldn’t let go of the woman in his heart—Fairy Lingyue.
Upon hearing this, the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
“If you don’t need me, then I’ll go and protect Yue’er. I must find a way to resurrect her.”
“Take care of yourself. If you need my help in the Nine Heavens, just let me know.”
After saying this, the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord glanced at Chen Ping reluctantly before disappearing.
Chen Ping waved towards the spot where the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord had vanished.
For so long, the Crimson Cloud Demon Lord had been accompanying him in his sea of consciousness; now that he was suddenly gone, Chen Ping felt a pang of reluctance. ”Let’s go to Tongtian Cliff…”
Chen Ping led the Dragon Clan army to Tongtian Cliff to check on the progress of the Heavenly Gate construction.
Upon arriving at Tongtian Cliff, Chen Ping personally used his supreme magical power to outline the foundation of the Heavenly Gate formation, drawing upon the power of the celestial stars.
Countless resources and skilled craftsmen from surrendered sects worked tirelessly day and night under the supervision of the Dragon Clan army.
Magnificent palaces rose from the ground, powerful array formations were inscribed into the mountainside, and spiritual energy converged like a tide, making Tongtian Cliff the new spiritual energy core of the Nine Heavens.
In just a few days, an incomparably magnificent sect rose from the ground.
In the process of integrating the resources of the Nine Heavens and sorting out his own gains, Chen Ping’s understanding of the laws deepened.
His cultivation also leaped from the fifth rank of the Human Immortal Realm to the sixth rank, and his true combat power was now beyond even his own estimation.
The Demon Suppression Tower, the Dragon Slaying Sword, and the Great Luo Golden Scripture were becoming increasingly integrated with him.
On this day, Chen Ping stood at the highest point of the plaza in front of the palace.
Below, in the plaza, stood a vast, orderly army of dragons, along with representatives from various allied forces across the Nine Heavens—a dark, imposing mass of tens of thousands!
Everyone held their breath, their gazes filled with reverence, even fanaticism, fixed on the figure in blue robes on the high platform.
Chen Ping’s gaze swept across the crowd, his voice calm yet carrying unparalleled authority, clearly reaching everyone’s ears:
“From this day forth, the Nine Heavens shall be ruled by me, Chen Ping!”
“The new Heavenly Gate shall stand here, overseeing the world! Liu Xue shall be its master!”
“Those who obey my commands shall be protected by me, granted inheritance, and enjoy peace!”
“Those who defy my will shall be reduced to ashes wherever the dragons’ iron hooves trot!”
“We obey your decree!”
A thunderous roar of responses, like rolling thunder, resounded through the heavens, echoing in every corner of the Nine Heavens!
A new era, the era of Chen Ping, had officially begun!
The Nine Heavens had welcomed its sole ruler!
“It’s time to completely annihilate that Soul Devourer.” Chen Ping’s eyes were filled with intense fighting spirit.
He had already conquered the entire Nine Heavens; what was a Soul Devourer compared to that?
Chen Ping felt he could kill the Soul Devourer with one hand.
