C4198 Morning Star Nine Sons
C4198 Morning Star Nine Sons
Ye Feng was shocked. The aura of the Dark Night Demon King was too terrifying. It was as if his real body had descended, giving him an unstoppable feeling.
"This palm is too strong. I can't block it!"
Ye Feng quickly retreated, but his speed was no match for the Dark Night Demon King's attack. Seeing that he was about to be grabbed by the palm, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel regret in his heart. He had been too rash and brought trouble upon himself.
"Devil, don't be presumptuous!"
Right at this moment, a roar sounded, and the small stone towers around the pale-white rock suddenly started to glow with a holy light as a holy barrier appeared.
"Bam!"
The barrier blocked the Dark Night King's palm and didn't seem to be damaged at all. Instead, the Dark Night King screamed as his palm touched the barrier and melted like snow in the sun.
"Dammit, you bastards!"
The Dark Night Demon King roared and retracted his palm as he looked at the figures on the golden barrier.
There was a total of nine people, and all of them seemed to be covered in holy light. Although their faces were blurry, their auras were all unique.
"Dark Night, if you want to spread the Devil Arts in my Morning Star Domain and cause trouble for the people, it's definitely a pipe dream!"
A dignified figure shouted coldly, his tone filled with disdain.
"Get the hell back!"
Immediately afterward, another figure roared, and the nine figures on the Sacred Light Barrier reached out their palms at the same time. The Sacred Light shone, and the Dark Night Demon King howled under the light. A moment later, he was pushed back into the rock.
"Little guy, how dare you face the Dark Night alone!?"
After doing all this, the imposing figure turned around and looked at Ye Feng with a smile.
"I didn't expect him to have such means."
Ye Feng shook his head with a bitter smile. Then he looked at the nine figures with a curious expression. After suppressing the phantom of the Dark Night Demon King back to the rock, they all became dimmer.
"This Dark Night Demon King is not an ordinary person. He is one of the nine great Demon Kings of the Demon Region. He is an expert of the Martial Soul Realm."
The authoritative figure spoke in a solemn tone, "You've offended him, so you need to be careful in the future. He has bewitched countless demonic slaves in the five zones of the human race, and some of them have even reached the Qi Ancestor Realm."
"Martial Spirit Realm?"
The corner of Ye Feng's eyes twitched slightly. He did not expect the Phoenix Cry Ji's judgment to be wrong. This Dark Night Demon King was not from the Qi Zong Stage, but a Martial Soul.
Without a Martial Saint, one's Martial Soul would be respected. In the current era, where no Martial Saint had appeared for thousands of years, a Martial Soul realm represented invincibility. Ye Feng never thought that he would provoke such a terrifying existence.
"Seniors, what are you doing?"
Ye Feng suppressed the fear in his heart and asked the majestic figure. Compared to the Dark Night Demon King, he was more curious about the identity of the figures in front of him.
"The nine of us are the Nine Warriors of the Morning Star. You should have heard of our names."
Ye Feng's pupils shrank when he heard this. He had naturally heard of the Nine Warriors of the Morning Star before.
These nine people were from the time of the Morning Star Dynasty. They were all extremely talented and had met in the Sacred Martial Arts Institute of the Morning Star Dynasty. They had become sworn brothers and teamed up to cultivate. In the end, all of them had reached the Qi Ancestor Realm.
The Nine Warriors of the Morning Star Dynasty were loyal and kind. They had done many good things and had a great reputation in the Morning Star Dynasty.
The prime minister of the Chen-Xing Dynasty had predicted that these nine people all had the potential to become Martial Spirit Realms.
As long as all nine of them reached the Martial Spirit Realm, they would be able to protect the Chen-Xing Dynasty for another thousand years or even ten thousand years.
At that time, the citizens of the Morning Star Dynasty were extremely excited and expectant of the nine prodigies.
However, the arrival of danger changed everything.
Strange flames, strong winds, and giant waves swept across the Morning Star Empire. In order to protect the commoners, almost all of the top forces of the Morning Star Empire had died in just a few days.
At that time, the Martial Spirit Realm Sovereign Lord and the Prime Minister had died one after another, and the young Crown Prince had been supported by the Nine Morning Stars.
Over the next ten or so years, the Nine Morning Stars assisted the Crown Prince, allowing the weakened Morning Star Empire to once again show signs of glory.
However, at this moment, the Nine Morning Stars suddenly disappeared. It was as if they had disappeared from the world.
After losing these nine pillars, the Morning Star Dynasty fell into decline once more and didn't rise anymore. In just a hundred years, it fell apart and the dynasty was destroyed.
There were too many theories about the disappearance of the Nine Sons of the Morning Star, but now that he saw the shadow of the Nine Sons of the Morning Star, Ye Feng realized that none of them made sense.
"Seniors, how could you..."
Ye Feng looked at them with a complicated expression and couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe, there was another reason for the unusual phenomenon that happened in the past. It was a deliberate strike from the Northern Empire. They were worried that the Morning Star Empire would develop too quickly and threaten the rule of the Empire..."
The majestic figure sneered, and his voice was filled with hatred. "For the next few decades, while we assisted the Crown Prince, we investigated the situation that year. When we found out that it was the Empire that had attacked in secret, we were prepared to report it to the Central Sacred Dynasty."
"I just didn't expect that the news of the Sacred Dynasty's destruction would come before we even got to the Central Zone. Nine supreme demon kings led the demon army into the Central Zone and destroyed the Sacred Dynasty."
"After that, the various Emperor Dynasties sent troops to the Central Zone to fight back against the demon army. We were about to head to the Central Zone as well, but we met the Dark Night Demon King that escaped to the Morning Star Zone."
"This Dark Night Demon King was one of the nine Demon Kings who led the army into the Central Region. At that time, he was already heavily injured, but he was still very powerful."
"The nine of us tried our best to protect the emperor and finally beat him back. However, we have reached the end of our lives. In order to deal with the Stone of Inheritance that he left behind, we sacrificed ourselves to the heavens and turned into the Inextinguishable Spirit Seal. We stayed here to suppress this Stone of Inheritance forever."
Tears welled up in Ye Feng's eyes when he heard this. He didn't expect the truth behind the disappearance of the Nine Sons of the Morning Star to be like this. In order to protect the master of the dynasty and for the people of the world, they voluntarily gave up their lives.
"Little guy, although we've turned into the Inextinguishable Spirit Seal, it's not really inextinguishable. Back then, we weren't able to kill the Dark Night Demon King and let him escape back to the Demonic Domain. Over the years, his injuries have fully recovered and from time to time, he would transmit power to affect this stone.
Our power is continuously being used up, and we'll be able to last for a few more years at most. We won't be able to suppress this stone anymore. If it runs to the outside world, it'll definitely cause chaos. "
"This stone..."
Ye Feng's heart sank as he looked at the demonic stone. The demonic stone could bewitch people's hearts. If it really escaped from the suppression and ran out into the outside world, countless civilians, even weak cultivators, would be bewitched and become the servants of the Dark Night Demon King.
