Chapter 80
Boom!
Du Guyun directly smashed the table, holding a sharp sword, and slashed towards Du Guxiong’s neck!
Clang, clang, clang.
Like divine metal colliding, a metallic clang was produced, and Du Guyun’s sharp sword couldn’t advance any further at Du Guxiong’s neck.
Even the divine weapon in Du Guyun’s hand trembled, emitting a mournful sound!
“Quite fiery, aren’t we!” Du Guxiong glanced at the divine weapon, pinched the divine sword between two fingers, and lightly snapped.
Crack.
The divine weapon immediately broke, turning into powder and slowly dissipating.
Hum.
Du Guyun’s pupils shrank, and his body instinctively retreated backward. This was an instinct he developed over the years walking between life and death.
However, the surroundings seemed to be sealed by some special secret technique, preventing Du Guyun from retreating or going anywhere else.
“Don’t waste your effort; this place has been completely sealed by me! Even if you have the ability to reach the sky, you cannot leave from here!” Du Guxiong looked at Du Guyun calmly and said indifferently.
“What do you want to do!” Du Guyun took a deep breath, quickly calmed himself down, and stared at Du Guxiong!
“Don’t think so poorly of people! You and I are father and son, after many years of separation, I just wanted to have a chat with you, and also to offer you some help!”
Before Du Guxiong could finish speaking, Du Guyun interjected: “I don’t have a father, my father died more than twenty years ago!”
“After he abandoned his wife and child, he was completely dead to me!” Du Guyun’s tone was extremely cold, filled with resentment.
He had never seen Du Guxiong because, by the time his mother had him, Du Guxiong was already gone.
Due to the fact that he had no father, Du Guyun was often bullied as a child and was called a bastard. Naturally, Du Guyun harbored hatred towards Du Guxiong.
“You need to correct that; your mother was never my wife! I don’t have a wife!”
“My relationship with your mother was just a fleeting affair, and I didn’t even know she was pregnant with you!” Du Guxiong frowned, displeased with Du Guyun’s mention of abandoning his wife and child.
Because he really hadn’t done so. The woman was not considered his wife. He only realized Du Guyun was his son after hearing about Du Guyun’s fame and noticing the striking resemblance between them.
He doesn’t have any descendants under his command, so he immediately came over after hearing about Du Guyun. Of course, it’s not that Du Guxiong cherished his son too much. But because Du Guyun was useful to him!
“I heard you were suppressed by the Primordial Holy Son in the Primordial Holy Land and even humiliated! Do you want to step on him? If you wish, I can help you!” Du Guxiong didn’t bother with pleasantries and got straight to the point! Hearing this, Du Guyun fell silent. He always thought that Du Guxiong had abandoned his wife and child, never considering that their relationship was merely a fleeting affair!
“I don’t believe it!” Du Guyun was greatly shocked; he couldn’t believe he had been lied to by his mother. Moreover, his mother had told him many things about Du Guxiong when he was a child.
“What’s there not to believe? Why would I, a Great Saint, need to abandon a mortal woman?”
“Moreover, even if I didn’t like your mother, I would have provided resources and assistance for your sake! Why would I let you suffer so much!” Du Guxiong said coldly. His vast pressure surged forth.
Boom.
Unable to withstand it, Du Guyun immediately knelt down. It felt as if the surroundings were laden with lead, immensely heavy, preventing any movement.
But more than the physical oppression, the shock to Du Guyun’s heart was even more painful. It turned out that what he had always believed was false.
“I’ll ask you one question, do you want to step on the Primordial Holy Son? If you are willing, I will assist you fully! If you are not, I won’t force you!” Du Guxiong withdrew his pressure, looking at Du Guyun and waiting for his choice.
At this moment, Du Guyun was struggling internally. Remembering the misery of his childhood made it difficult for him to agree to Du Guxiong. But the strength of the Primordial Holy Son was undeniable, leaving him in despair.
Now was an excellent opportunity; if he agreed, the other party would help him. It would give him a chance to step on the Primordial Holy Son.
“The Primordial Holy Son has the backing of the Primordial Holy Land and countless resources, and his talent is rare in the world, even the ancient imperial clans dare not say they can step on the Primordial Holy Son!”
“Why should I believe you? Even if you are a Great Saint, what are you compared to the ancient imperial clans?” Du Guyun said gravely.
Although he didn’t directly respond, his words already implied a choice. Du Guxiong knew it too, so he didn’t continue on this topic, giving Du Guyun some face.
“Whether it’s the Primordial Holy Land or the Ancient Imperial Clan, what do they amount to?” Du Guxiong sneered disdainfully: “As long as I wish it, you can definitely surpass the Primordial Holy Son!”
“No, you should say you will replace him, become the next Primordial Holy Son, and even control the entire Primordial Holy Land!”
“This is the Immortal Devouring Technique, a secret method created by an immortal existence! As long as you practice this secret method, let alone surpassing the Primordial Holy Son, even becoming the most powerful existence in the world is within reach!”
Dugu Yun was not swayed by his persuasion, and coldly said: “If this secret method is so powerful, why haven’t I seen you become the strongest existence in the world.”
He is not a three-year-old child. If the secret method mentioned by Du Guxiong was that heaven-defying, Du Guxiong would have already dominated the Nine Heavens Realm. There’s no need to waste his breath on him.
Du Guxiong was prepared for this, and said indifferently: “You don’t need to mock me! This secret method cannot be learned by just anyone who wishes to!”
“If I could learn it, what Primordial Holy Land, what Ancient Imperial Clan would have already been under my feet!”
Dugu Yun continued sarcastically: “Since even you can’t learn it, why give it to me? Could it be that you think I can learn it? You’re a Great Saint, and I’m merely at the Soul Sea Realm!”
Dugu Yun is no fool. If the Immortal Devouring Technique was really that powerful, it wouldn’t have come down to him.
“You whether you can learn it or not is not for me to decide! This is an opportunity, the only opportunity for you to surpass the Primordial Holy Son!”
“It’s up to you whether you want it or not! As a disciple of the Primordial Holy Land, you know better than anyone the gap between you and the Primordial Holy Son, and if you don’t have enough talent and strength, the resources of the Primordial Holy Land will inevitably be given to the Primordial Holy Son first, not you!”
“If you continue to practice as usual, you will never catch up to the Primordial Holy Son in this lifetime!”
Dugu Yun couldn’t refute it as it is the truth. The monstrous degree of Jiang Chen is unimaginable, and it’s delusional to think about surpassing Jiang Chen.
In terms of resources, in terms of talent, he is inferior to the other party in every aspect.
To surpass the other party, the usual methods definitely won’t work. He must find another way, taking a shortcut to overtake.
“This secret method, I will leave it here for you. If you are content to look up to the Primordial Holy Son for the rest of your life, then throw this thing away!”
“If you want to surpass the Primordial Holy Son, then give it a try! Even if you fail, it won’t kill you!” Du Guxiong’s voice gradually faded away, and he disappeared along with it.
With a bang.
The surrounding void suddenly shattered, exploding like a huge mirror.
