Chapter 1361: Xu Yang's Killing Intent

Xu Yang’s words were a sudden enlightenment for Emperor Yunlong, making him understand things a little better.

While his worries did stem from some valid points Xu Yang made, Emperor Yunlong would never give up his control over the entire Lost Clan.

“If you truly trust me, inject the source of the Beast Emperor’s legacy power into my body. There’s no harm in fulfilling your promise. As the one who initiated this transaction, to show my sincerity, I am willing to transfer this third ancient jade fragment to you in advance.”

Emperor Yunlong truly spared no expense. He gently flicked his palm in front of everyone, sending the third enigmatic fragment directly into Xu Yang’s hand.

He did this partly because he was certain Xu Yang wasn't the kind of person who would burn bridges, and partly because so many people were watching Xu Yang, making it impossible for him to simply take the item and leave.

As expected, after Xu Yang felt the gentle aura of the third ancient jade fragment, his headache intensified.

The Moon God was awakened once more. This was, of course, due to the integration of the third fragment, which caused the incomplete pattern of the ancient jade – only a quarter of which remained in Xu Yang’s spiritual world – to reappear. “Thank you, Xu Yang. You’ve finally acquired three ancient jade fragments through your own efforts.

"Although you're still missing the last one to complete the entire ancient jade, I believe you're not far from that day.

"Or, I can give you a subconscious hint: this last ancient jade fragment is likely hidden somewhere in the barren lands of the far north.

"You should know that something as rare as ancient jade, once it ends up in a certain region of the continent, will definitely be discovered by the strongest person in that area and claimed as their own.”

After hearing the Moon God's words, Xu Yang’s attention turned to the Lost Ones before him.

“These ancient jade fragments are probably of no use to you. Why don’t you hand over this treasure? I can consider not being your enemy anymore.”

Xu Yang spoke slowly, addressing the leader of the Lost Clan in this manner, but the other party maintained an indifferent expression.

“No matter how strong you are, you have no right to negotiate with us on our territory.”

Xu Yang let out a faint smile. “I actually never considered that question. In Yingzhou Continent, I am qualified to do anything. I have the influence and power to depose Emperor Yunlong as well.

"And you, a few good-for-nothings, dare to speak to me in such a manner?”

This time, Xu Yang was truly enraged. The reason was simple: ever since their appearance, the Lost Clan had always maintained an arrogant demeanor, acting as if they were the true gods destined to rule Yingzhou Continent.

What Xu Yang detested most was this kind of arrogance. People who couldn't recognize their own true capabilities yet dared to make boastful claims in front of their opponents would never become true powerhouses.

For Xu Yang, confrontations between masters were essentially a process of finding each other's weaknesses.

If one exposed a weakness first and their opponent exploited it, the advantage gained in that exchange would be very difficult to reclaim later.

When Xu Yang decided to give these Lost Ones a stern warning, he finally acted without hesitation, fully demonstrating his decisive and lethal nature.

This time, Xu Yang’s chosen method of attack was striking. Without any elaborate techniques, he simply released the boundless murderous aura within him. With all nine wondrous qi vortices simultaneously active, Xu Yang was completely enveloped by a cold, chilling aura of slaughter. Like a demonic god of slaughter from hell, he slowly advanced, gradually closing in on the hundreds of Lost Ones before him.

“Damn, his murderous aura is so powerful! No wonder he’s so confident and dares to act so presumptuously in front of us!”

Two leaders of the Lost Clan beside them spoke coldly.

They didn't realize that even with just this pure murderous aura, Xu Yang was already far beyond the capabilities of powerhouses at their level.

The nine qi vortices simultaneously unleashed a chilling, extreme light of slaughter. The mere oppressive and terrifying atmosphere permeating the surroundings was enough to make everyone gasp for breath.

“He’s truly too strong! The murderous aura on Boss is so intense that ordinary beast tribes would probably suffer soul collapse before even fully perceiving it!”

The White Tiger youth shook his head with a sympathetic expression, looking at the Lost Clan warriors not far away, seemingly pitying their fate.

If they hadn't met Xu Yang, the top experts among his team’s divine beast envoys would have long since returned home by now.

Having come all this way, being simply sent back by the enemy would be unacceptable. This was also why Xu Yang had actively sought out confrontations with opponents, hoping to gain a more elevated fighting spirit and further ignite the desire for slaughter within him.

A crimson light rapidly spread outwards in a very short time, and it showed no signs of stopping. The entire area became completely enveloped by Xu Yang’s murderous aura. It would be extremely difficult for any life form to survive in such an intense atmosphere of slaughter; they would instinctively become manic, bloodthirsty, and reckless.

Before long, as the incredibly powerful force emanating from Xu Yang began to exert immense pressure and influence on the surrounding space, the Lost warriors before him began to display their own unique abilities.

They vainly attempted to use their strength to stop the murderous aura from spreading further and inflicting widespread negative effects on the Lost warriors.

However, their attempts quickly failed. They all realized that this method was merely drinking poison to quench thirst; it not only failed to stop Xu Yang’s murderous aura from further engulfing them but actually intensified it, making his aura even more unassailable.

“It seems this is the perfect time for me to replenish my murderous aura,” Xu Yang whispered, suddenly closing his eyes to meditate. Utilizing the abundant cultivation conditions of the Demon King Valley and his own vast mental energy reserves, he began to study an exceedingly potent Primordial Fusion technique.

The so-called Primordial Fusion technique was, in fact, a form of dual cultivation.

However, it was an external dual cultivation, requiring no physical contact between two people. All that was needed was to establish the same set of spiritual connection points that the large man had just created when performing soul transmission for the masked female envoy.

This would allow for the perfect real-time sharing of combat information with everyone in the team, ensuring that even against the most powerful opponents, they would no longer be as restricted as they currently were.
