Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2902
Chapter 1415 Golden City
“The Abyss of Eternal Night is a forbidden area in the Asura Realm, deep in the ocean outside Mount Sumeru. Legend has it that once you enter, you can never come out,” Tu Shanyu explained. “The reason I mentioned the Abyss of Eternal Night to that deputy commander is because Vimalakirti wanted to hold a sacrifice there.”
“A sacrifice?” Zu An’s eyelids twitched. In these worlds of gods and demons, holding a sacrifice was obviously not a good thing. For example, Hermes also held a sacrifice last time, trying to resurrect the goddess in his heart, and caused a lot of trouble.
“Yes, it seems they’re preparing to resurrect the Asura Primordial Demon God,” Tu Shanyu replied. “The Asuras are indeed skilled in battle, but even the strongest Asuras know that the Heavenly Gods are powerful now, and they have many other races allied under their command. The Asuras probably can’t defeat them, so they can only rely on the Asura Primordial Demon God to deal with the Heavenly Gods.”
“The Asura Primordial Demon God?” Zu An frowned. “Since he’s been dead for so long, how can he be resurrected?”
He is the Lord of the Underworld and holds some power over death. Even he needs to find the elixir of immortality and the corresponding soul to resurrect someone.
Even if the Asura Primordial Demon God is powerful, he has been dead for countless years. His soul has probably long since vanished. How could he be resurrected?
“I don’t know, but judging from their thorough preparations, they might really be able to resurrect him,” Tu Shanyu said after thinking for a moment.
Zu’an fell into deep thought. Unless the Asura Primordial Demon God was powerful enough to reach the level of a true god, perhaps his soul could remain immortal. Otherwise, even if he were resurrected, it would likely be like the elixir of immortality that resurrected the Yayu into a monster in the Heavenly Court world…
Wait, they originally intended to use the Asura Primordial Demon God to deal with the Heavenly Realm; they didn’t necessarily need him to have a mind.
“What exactly is the Heavenly Demon Empress?” Zu’an thought about all the changes in Asura. The Heavenly Demon Empress had played a crucial role in pushing things along. It was hard to feel at ease with such a powerful being hiding in the shadows.
“I’ve actually never seen the Heavenly Demon Empress’s true face. I only know that she’s a woman, the most charming woman in the world. No one can escape her allure.” Tu Shanyu said this with a face full of reverence.
“Is she in the Asura Realm?” Zu’an asked the crucial question.
Tu Shanyu shook her head slightly: “I don’t know. It seems unlikely at the moment. She assigned me to do some things for her, but with her abilities, she could descend upon the Asura Realm at any time. Perhaps she has already arrived in the Asura Realm, but outsiders don’t know.”
Zu’an fell silent, pondered for a while, and then asked: “What is the current situation of the Asura King?”
“The Asura King has been imprisoned in the Golden City Blood Crystal Royal Court by Vimalakirti and Rahu. The two of them only spared his life to obtain the Asura authority in his hands and command the entire Asura Path. He can no longer cause any trouble,” Tu Shanyu replied.
Zu An was puzzled. “Huh? What is the Asura King’s authority? Since we can already imprison him, can’t we just seize it directly?”
Tu Shan Yu shook her head slightly. “I don’t know either. Vimalakirti and Rahu did defeat the Asura King before, but the authority doesn’t seem to be on him. They couldn’t do anything about it, and they were worried that killing him would mean they would never get the authority again, so they imprisoned him first.”
Zu An pondered to himself, could this kind of authority not be something tangible?
Although he had obtained a wisp of Asura Path authority in his later life, it didn’t mean that the authority in this world was the same as before.
“Take me to Jin City. I want to contact the Asura King,” Zu An said after thinking for a moment.
Tu Shan Yu didn’t hesitate at all. “Okay!”
Instead, Zu An was a little worried. “Won’t this put you in danger?”
Tu Shan Yu smiled sweetly. “What’s a little danger? Of course, I’ll prioritize fulfilling your request.”
“What about your mission? Has the Temple of Happiness and Desire assigned you any missions?” Zu An was still a little worried.
Tu Shanyu shook her head slightly: “No, I did encounter some missions after entering the temple, but this time, I don’t know why I came to this world and am obeying the orders of the Heavenly Demon Empress. The temple hasn’t given me any missions.”
Zu An was somewhat surprised, thinking that the Heavenly Demon Empress also stirred up the desires deep within people’s hearts. Could she also be related to the God of Pleasure and Desire?
Next, he learned some information about the Asuras and the Heavenly Demons from Tu Shanyu before they climbed Mount Sumeru together.
Mount Sumeru was the Earthly Realm of the Asuras, so it was definitely not a place to fly or traverse freely. One had to first pass through the Iron City at the foot of the mountain, then the Silver City in the middle, and finally reach the Golden City at the summit.
Now, with such a change within the Asuras, the entire Mount Sumeru was under martial law. Even with Zu An’s Myriad Transformations technique, it would be difficult to pass through the layers of guards.
But with Tu Shanyu leading the way, the journey was truly unimpeded.
Although they occasionally encountered Asuras coming out to inspect, once they saw the token in Tu Shanyu’s hand, they all became respectful.
Zu An couldn’t help but tease, “Looks like you’re quite a big shot in the Asura Realm.”
Tu Shan Yu smiled and said, “Ultimately, it’s all thanks to Vimalakirti’s name. He needs to cooperate with the Heavenly Demon Empress, so naturally he wouldn’t dare to slight me.”
The entire Silver City was made of silver, and the silver tower at the highest point was clearly Vimalakirti’s city lord’s mansion.
However, Vimalakirti was currently stationed in Golden City, overseeing the Asura King, and wasn’t in Silver City.
Zu An didn’t have time to marvel at the luxury of Silver City and went straight up to the glittering Golden City.
Thanks to Tu Shan Yu’s token, Zu An entered Golden City smoothly.
As soon as he entered Golden City, Zu An was almost blinded by the brilliance, because even the floor tiles were made of gold. The wealth of this city was enough to buy many worlds.
After finally getting used to the extravagant style, Zu An noticed that there were significantly fewer Asuras in Golden City. Obviously, those qualified to be in Golden City were all high-level Asuras.
The entire Golden City was swarming with patrolling Asura soldiers. Tu Shanyu explained that they were Vimalakirti’s men.
Currently, most of the original Asuras in the city were still unaware of what was happening, having accepted this control without even realizing it.
The two arrived at the Blood Crystal Royal Court. Tu Shanyu said with some worry, “The Asura King is imprisoned inside, but Vimalakirti personally guards this place. I can’t bring you in silently.”
“It’s alright. You’ve already saved me a lot of trouble along the way,” Zu An smiled. Without her guidance, he didn’t know how much trouble it would have been to get from the Iron City at the foot of the mountain to the Golden City at the summit.
Suddenly, a voice rang out: “Tu Shanyu, you’re back so soon? How did the matter I asked you to handle go?”
Tu Shanyu’s expression changed slightly. From her expression, she could tell that the voice belonged to the Asura Grand Elder, Vimalakirti.
