The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 367: The Power of God

Chapter 367: Chapter 367: The Power of God

"Holy Court... Ji Yongsheng..."

The voice rang out again, and even though he had guessed it, Qin Jun couldn’t help but be shaken.

It was indeed the Extreme Flame Demon, Ji Yongsheng!

Back when he was absorbing the Extreme Flame Ghost Water in Death Valley, he had inadvertently obtained the bloodline of the Extreme Flame Demon. At that time, he wondered if Ji Yongsheng’s remnant soul might have entered his body, but since nothing happened for a while after that, he eventually let his guard down.

Unexpectedly, Ji Yongsheng was truly still alive and had been inside him all along, just without possessing him.

Walking uncontrollably towards the ancient spirit, Qin Jun was not panicked; instead, he felt an inexplicable excitement. He preferred to see the ancient spirit dissipate into nothingness rather than be killed!

Feeling a surge of unprecedented power within him, a fierce smile appeared on Qin Jun’s face.

At the same time, golden spiritual power overflowed from his body, expanding rapidly. The pressure he emitted grew stronger and stronger, leaving the onlookers dumbfounded.

"What’s happening to Qin Emperor?"

"This aura is so strong... it doesn’t feel weaker than the enemy’s..."

"Look, Qin Emperor seems like a different person!"

"This aura seems like demonic energy..."

"Hiss— Have you all forgotten the rumors about Qin Emperor being possessed by a demon lord?"

Not only the onlookers, but also the civil and military officials of Guarding Slaughter City were dumbstruck, feeling an inexplicable fear in their hearts as they looked at Qin Jun at this moment.

The overwhelming demonic might frightened Nezha, who was struggling to fly over from afar, and King Huang Feng, who was still lying in the mountains outside the city, was startled, his eyelids twitching as he opened his eyes.

The ancient spirit seemed to be frightened too, exclaiming, "Who exactly are you?"

Qin Jun did not answer him but approached with murderous intent on his face. At the same time, the golden spiritual power around his body had reached a hundred feet in height and was still expanding, a magnificent sight to behold.

"What’s going on... Why do I feel awe towards this aura, and even an impulse to kneel..."

Wang Xue’s face showed a look of confusion, unaware that the Cat People Clan had signed a bloodline covenant of era-long allegiance with Ji Yongsheng, all thanks to their ancestors.

Soon, the golden spiritual power around Qin Jun churned like smoke, coalescing into a humanoid form.

It was as though a golden giant hundreds of feet tall enveloped Qin Jun, exuding an imposing aura. Although the true visage of the golden figure could not be seen, its robust build resembled the heaven-breaking Pangu Great God.

"Hmph!"

Without getting an answer from Qin Jun, the ancient spirit huffed angrily and charged at Qin Jun immediately, relying on nothing but fists and feet, without any fancy spells or divine powers.

Thud—

A punch landed on the golden figure, but instead of causing damage, it caused its own arm to dissipate, and the figure was forced to retreat.

And Qin Jun’s body didn’t even tremble a bit.

"You wish to kill me without even weighing your own strength, an ant daring to compete with a dragon in strength?"

Qin Jun laughed mockingly, giving him a taste of his own medicine!

The ridicule that the ancient spirit had thrown at him just moments earlier, now it was time to return it with added scorn!

At the same time, he asked nervously in his mind, "Ji Yongsheng, what exactly do you want to do?"

This guy had been lurking inside him for so long, only to come out when his life was in danger, clearly harboring some ulterior motive.

"I am you, and you are me..."

The voice of Ji Yongsheng echoed in his mind, leaving him utterly baffled.

"What do you mean?"

Qin Jun continued to inquire, and at the same time, the metal figure on his body began to move, raising a palm and facing the ancient soul.

In an instant, hundreds of meters away, the ancient soul felt a terrifying sucking force coming at it head-on, causing it to uncontrollably fly towards the giant palm of the metal figure.

"What kind of power is this..."

The ancient soul cried out in terror, no longer possessing its previous domineering momentum. Once Ji Yongsheng made a move, the tables turned between him and Qin Jun, leaving the onlookers in utter shock.

Soon, no matter how much the ancient soul struggled, it still fell into the hands of the metal figure.

This scene made Old Man Yi above the clouds gulp, muttering to himself, "The power of a God and Demon is terrifying like this..."

He seemed to recognize what was hidden inside Qin Jun.

"No wonder he could subdue the Wheel of Fate, it turns out he’s that person’s successor..." Old Man Yi’s expression was extremely complex, his eyes whirring, obviously scheming something.

Elsewhere, Ji Yongsheng answered in Qin Jun’s mind: "I have died, leaving only a wisp of my soul, waiting for tens of thousands of years just for you..."

Qin Jun was baffled by the response, thinking to himself, just spit it out and say what you’ve been waiting for me to do!

At the same time, he suddenly felt that he could control his body again, or more accurately, he could control the metal figure hundreds of feet tall on his body, as if it was his own body. He could feel the ancient soul in his hands struggling, like a mouse in his grasp.

He understood it was not that the ancient soul was too weak, but that Ji Yongsheng was too strong!

Is this what true power feels like...

Qin Jun thought obsessively. Everyone around him looked on with awe and disbelief, including Nezha. This feeling was simply exhilarating!

"Its life or death, you decide!"

Ji Yongsheng’s voice echoed once more in his mind, filled with a seductive tone as if to entice Qin Jun.

Without hesitation, Qin Jun squeezed hard, crushing the ancient soul to pieces so swiftly that it didn’t even have time to scream in agony.

Silence descended upon the world.

Everyone’s mouths fell open in disbelief. Had the previously almost invincible ancient soul just died like that?

Nezha, who had been defeated by the ancient soul, trembled all over, his face full of disbelief. He had never imagined Qin Jun possessed such power.

Daji, You Fenghuang, and Wang Xue also stared blankly at Qin Jun, expressionless.

Most in Guarding Slaughter City could see the colossal metal figure standing hundreds of feet tall inside the city lord’s mansion, standing there like a deity, inspiring a sense of reverence in their hearts.

Crash—

Like shattering glass, the metal figure on Qin Jun suddenly fragmented, turning into countless specks of gold and dispersing in the air.

"I shall fall into slumber again... reach the Immortal Realm quickly if you wish to know everything about me and you..."

Ji Yongsheng’s voice grew weak, as if it would vanish at any moment.

"Ding! Main quest triggered — Mystery of the God and Demon! Quest details: Break through to the Immortal Realm and learn the secrets of the host from the Scorching Flame God and Demon, Ji Yongsheng. Completing the quest will grant two God and Demon summoning opportunities, one God and Demon legion summoning opportunity, one random lottery, one skill inheritance, one wisdom search chance, and one God and Demon instance opportunity!"

Qin Jun stood rooted to the spot, unable to come to his senses for a long while.

Listening to Ji Yongsheng and the main quest’s introduction, there was some relation between him and Ji Yongsheng that he did not yet understand.

No wonder the Valley of Death had existed for so long without anyone obtaining the lineage of the Scorching Flame God and Demon; it seemed it wasn’t just a coincidence.

Qin Jun furrowed his brows, feeling somewhat uneasy in his heart.

However, after completely annihilating the ancient soul, his mood lightened, at least Guarding Slaughter City was safe once more.

"Brother Qin Jun..."

Just then, Li’s weak voice came through, startling him into quickly turning around to see Daji and the other three ladies looking at him anxiously, while the civil and military officials were filled with fear.
