The armour on the opponent’s body erupted with terrifying brilliance, the radiance enveloping heaven and earth. A monstrous power surged forth from him, vast and boundless. With every tremor, heaven and earth distorted, and it seemed as though all things were about to collapse under his power.
This was a terrifying power, capable of obliterating everything. Ye Chu’s expression changed drastically upon seeing this. The opponent’s power could easily shatter a portion of the sky. Ye Chu thought to himself that if he were to clash with him, even with his robust physical body, he would be easily obliterated.
This power was beyond anything he could imagine.
Looking towards Jin Wawa, Ye Chu began to worry for him. With such power, could Jin Wawa withstand it?
“With such meagre strength, you delusionally think you can stop me?” Jin Wawa sneered. “What use is adding a pair of scrap metal?”
Watching the domineering palm strike hurtling towards him, Jin Wawa simply stood there, raising those chubby hands to meet it. It collided with the fiery red dragon formed by the monstrous power.
“Boom…”
A terrifying, deafening roar echoed, and heaven and earth seemed to crack. A massive black hole appeared in the void, emitting a palpable aura that threatened to swallow everything. The violent energy plunged into it and vanished, while the fire dragon disintegrated. Jin Wawa stood just outside the black hole, his plump figure appearing remarkably majestic.
“Pfft…”
Just as before, Chi Long spat out a mouthful of blood. Crimson blood dripped drop by drop from his fist. As it fell, Jin Wawa waved his arm, and the dripping blood was drawn into his jade bottle.
“Not bad, this blood will be of great use to Xixi!”
Jin Wawa’s words shocked everyone. No one had expected that Chi Long, with his formidable power and full set of artefacts, would still not be a match for him. The opponent had still managed to make Chi Long spit blood with a single punch.
“So this is the extent of the Heavenly Palace’s people? With such meagre strength, this God of Wealth shall enlighten you all today!” Jin Wawa stared at Chi Long and laughed loudly.
Chi Long’s face turned cold, but a massive storm raged in his heart. This fat fellow was too strong. He knew very well how much combat power he could unleash by combining his artefacts with his own strength. Even against someone at the fifth level of the Profound Ancient Realm, he could fight. Yet, despite this, he was still struck and made to spit blood by a single palm. Judging by this, the opponent’s strength must have reached the upper tier of the Profound Ancient Realm.
“Upper tier of the Profound Ancient Realm?” Chi Long could not help but gasp. Reaching this level meant one could attempt to break through to the realm of seizing the creation of heaven and earth.
What kind of terrifying figures were those who seized the creation of heaven and earth? They were heaven defying individuals who mastered the laws and could resonate with heaven and earth itself. In the current world, such powerful experts rarely emerged. Unless they were of the younger generation, those who had seized the creation of heaven and earth were in secluded cultivation.
Until the great era arrived, these experts remained hidden from the world. This meant that the Profound Ancient Realm was the strongest level currently walking the world, and the upper tier of the Profound Ancient Realm represented the top figures walking the world today.
Among the ten great war generals, only three had reached the upper tier of the imperial realm. Every single one of those three was a heaven defying, terrifying existence.
Chi Long had fought those three before, and the mere thought of it made him shudder. Yet this fat fellow before him could actually compare to those three. Where on earth did such a figure come from?
“Who exactly are you?” Chi Long stared dead at Jin Wawa. This person was too strong. They had compiled statistics on all the formidable figures in the Red Dust Domain. Their master liked to keep everything under his control and did not wish for any variables. Yet he had absolutely no information on this person, which brought a massive variable to them.
“This lord has already told you, I am the God of Wealth!” Jin Wawa stared at the group and said. “Well? Why not hurry up and hand over all the treasures on your bodies?”
“Are you truly fearless of our Heavenly Palace?” Chi Long still wanted to use the name of the Heavenly Palace to intimidate Jin Wawa.
Jin Wawa laughed heartily. “I am the God of Wealth. What is the Heavenly Palace, that it could scare me?”
As Jin Wawa laughed, a crack suddenly split open in the void, and several figures slowly walked out from within.
“The Heavenly Palace awes the world. Those who insult us shall die!”
The voice was as vast as thunder, vibrating down from the void, carrying endless majesty. The oppressive pressure surged down, and the figures instantly positioned themselves in front of Chi Long.
Their speed was so fast that even Ye Chu, who had cultivated the Instant Wind Art, saw his pupils contract sharply as he stared straight at these individuals.
“Five people walked down, each clad in armour, their entire bodies encased in it. Only the colours of their armour differed.”
Chi Long’s was crimson, while the others were yellow, green, cyan, blue, and gold. Each suit of armour flowed with radiance, emitting a palpable aura.
“His other five great war generals!” Zhong Wei’s face looked extremely grim. She whispered in Ye Chu’s ear, “Among his ten great war generals, as long as one reaches the Profound Ancient Realm, he bestows armour upon them. They are each named after a dragon. The leading Golden Dragon is his second ranked war general. Rumour has it his strength has reached the peak of the Profound Ancient Realm.”
“Hiss…”
Ye Chu gasped, staring straight at the people walking down. His gaze could not help but turn to Jin Wawa, whose expression had also grown grave at this moment.
“Seven of his ten war generals have come here, which means it is highly likely that he is also nearby,” Zhong Wei whispered to Ye Chu, then gave a bitter smile. “If he comes, I definitely cannot escape. You and your senior brother must leave quickly. If he arrives, no one will be able to save you.”
“Seven of the Son of Heaven’s ten great war generals coming here has truly startled this God of Wealth.” Jin Wawa finally put away the gold ingot he had been playing with in his hand and looked at these individuals. “Rumour has it he wishes to emulate the former Lord of the Heavenly Palace, to forge a world shaking heavenly palace, and even to emulate him in cultivating ten war generals. Every war general possesses the talent of a hero and heaven defying fortune.”
The war general clad in golden armour looked at Jin Wawa and said, “You are not bad either, a descendant of the God of Wealth family from back then, and a current disciple of the Heartless Peak. Whichever elder of the Heartless Peak it was, he faced the Demon Palace and the Devil Hall without fear. His disciple is not bad either.”
“The Heartless Peak is naturally not bad, but you who claim to be war generals are rather disappointing. The war generals of the former Lord were incredibly terrifying, every single one an absolute powerhouse. Even the eldest could contend for the supreme position, yet you are still lingering in the Profound Ancient Realm. The Son of Heaven seems to be unworthy of his name,” Jin Wawa laughed loudly.
“Back then, the God of Wealth family was the richest under heaven. Across the nine heavens and ten domains, everywhere was the property of the God of Wealth family. What kind of dominance was that? At their command, anywhere within the four seas could be made rich or poor as they wished, truly possessing divine power. Yet now, a descendant of the God of Wealth family has become a madman, obsessed with gold ingots all day long, truly bringing shame to the God of Wealth family,” the Golden Dragon war general laughed in return.
The dialogue between the two made Zhong Wei stare wide eyed at Jin Wawa. She could never have imagined that Jin Wawa was a descendant of the God of Wealth family.
That terrifying family, despite lacking the title of a holy land, and being a family of merchants, was a terrifying clan that even dared to traffic in supreme artefacts back in the day. However, had the God of Wealth family not already perished? How could there still be descendants in the world?!
