Chapter 1567: Chapter 1107: Prisoner Identity

When Li Changhe placed Old Lead into the chest and closed it.

A series of horrifying screams emanated from inside the chest, and the enormous chest began to madly shake, as though something alive was trying to break out.

What followed were unsettling, sinister noises, along with the sounds of chewing.

Tian Ming felt a chill run down his spine and readied himself for action.

Yet Li Changhe waved his hand, signaling him not to worry, and pressed his hand down on the trembling chest, asking, "Without using the Divine Artifacts, will the church discover your actions in advance?"

"You need not worry about that, Yang Dong His Excellency. When Divine Artifacts are not activated, they are indistinguishable from ordinary weapons. This is a characteristic we’ve discovered over time. And our secret smiths have also forged fakes that are good enough to fool the church. Once the Divine Will Battle begins, they won’t have the chance to discern whether or not we’ve activated ours on the Battlefield," Tian Ming hesitated for a moment while looking at the chest that was still emitting piercing screams and chewing sounds, then spoke, "Your Excellency, what you are doing is..."

He sensed something was amiss, as the Divine Artifacts within the chest seemed to be undergoing some kind of destruction.

"Could it be... Are you destroying the Divine Artifacts?" Tian Ming had mixed feelings, some joy but mostly worry.

Of course, the worry was greater.

Throughout history, human emperors have all thought of permanently destroying the Divine Artifacts to end the problem once and for all. However, they couldn’t find a way to destroy them.

Moreover, they equally needed the power of the Divine Artifacts for combat. Destroying the Divine Artifacts meant directly opposing ’God’, and they dared not make enemies with the Demons from the Celestial Court.

Unexpectedly, upon Li Changhe’s arrival, he had already made a decision for them.

That is, to destroy all the Divine Artifacts!

"As you know, Divine Artifacts are essentially an embodiment of a catastrophe that consumes the foundation and national strength of human empires," Li Changhe said. "And to win the Divine Will Battle, you have to use Divine Artifacts. You are forced to expend your own lives and those of your citizens. Now, you don’t have to concern yourself with this anymore... because I am far more powerful than all these Divine Artifacts combined!"

Tian Ming felt some hesitation; he had no recognition of Li Changhe’s true might. All he knew was that he once cut through a mountain at the very beginning. This, given some time, he could achieve as well.

Because he himself was also considered a talent of extraordinary strength. Achieving the status of a Celestial at the age of sixty indeed made him a rare genius.

He too was a Heaven-level Transcendent, a Celestial, a being of Divinity.

In his eyes, Li Changhe was a powerful Heretic Tian.

Isn’t that also a Celestial of the same level? Similarly not a Demigod, so why is he so confident?

Tian Ming’s doubt is not without reason; he has been trapped in this world and is unaware of the disparity between the Celestials.

Li Changhe then patiently explained, "If you can defend the entrances and exits of the Divine Will Battle, I alone am capable of quelling the war. I, Li... I, Yang Dong, indeed possess that level of strength."

The current Li Changhe has achieved the One vital energy transforms into Pure Ones; the Three Pure Ones are the Three Corpses. Each one possesses the full strength of Li Changhe.

Even if they don’t invoke their Demigod State, just the summoning of the Immortal Cavalry by the Three Corpses is enough to change the course of the war.

Not to mention the Demigod State of the Three Corpses. It is equivalent to three Demigods taking action simultaneously. Without the enemy having a fleet or substantial firepower, they would essentially have no chance of turning the tables.

This is the deterrence power of a Demigod.

Of course, if the opposition brings out a massive arsenal of technological weapons and a legion of Transcendents, then we can disregard what Li Changhe just said...

However, if other Demigods were to hear this, they would surely curse.

’Li Ba, are you fucking unable to take a damn joke?’

After a moment of hesitation, Tian Ming did not oppose any further.

He had already placed all his hopes on Li Changhe.

Now that the Divine Artifacts were destroyed, so be it. If this is not successful, then it is to die for righteousness.

Subsequently, Li Changhe and Tian Ming confirmed the details of the upcoming war again. To minimize damage to the human world, the three great kingdoms would fully block the peripheral defenses of the Divine Will Battle. Whereas Li Changhe, along with human elites and their elite forces, would go deep into the Battlefield. They would investigate the Demon Domain, and incidentally deal with all encountered enemies.

If as suspected this place is truly hell, and Great Yi is also among them, then Li Changhe will inevitably set about freeing Great Yi.

That is, to open hell.

But this is actually a bit risky.

After all, Li Changhe doesn’t know for sure what enemies are still lurking in hell.

Theoretically, whether it be Great Yi or those prisoners held captive by the Celestial Court.

Shouldn’t they all be human powerhouses?

Surely they wouldn’t just come out and attack their own kind, attacking the human kingdoms, right?

This is also the only point of hesitation for Li Changhe; at the very least, he needs to figure out exactly who the powerful beings imprisoned below are.

If a bunch of Different Race demigods or even True Gods were to jump out, that would be quite the spectacle. Li Changhe would then become the eternal sinner of this world.

"Who could the prisoners of the Celestial Court be?" Li Changhe pondered and asked the Sun Shooting Golden Arrow.

"It’s hard to say, I am just a God Sin," responded the Sun Shooting Golden Arrow. "But I speculate that the so-called prisoners are most likely the defeated divinities from the Yan Huang war."

"The Yan Huang war... ancestors’ embarrassing history," Li Changhe nodded slightly, also thinking the same.

The Yan Huang war... is also the longest and most brutal war in the mythological history of Hua Country.

Based on the progression of mythological legends.

The ancestor Yellow Emperor was indeed a formidable fighter.

First, Emperor Yan fought with the Yellow Emperor, ending in Emperor Yan’s defeat. The Yan and Huang merged into the Yan Huang lineage.

This made Ancestor Chiyou, who belonged to Emperor Yan’s tribe, unwilling to accept this outcome. He straight-up ignored Emperor Yan, calling upon tribes such as Jiuli, Kuafu, Dongyi, to resist the grand Yan Huang army.

The Yellow Emperor naturally also enlisted a large number of allies, including top divine creatures like Yinglong and the support of the Celestial Court’s strength.

The clash of the two sides incited an unprecedented mythological war. Countless divinities fell. The void’s neighboring races trembled in fear.

After all, the human forces of that era were exceedingly dominating.

Even passing demon clan demigods were captured; if not used as mounts, they were used as food.

According to Ancestor Chiyou’s own account, demigods were as common as dogs and there were plenty of True Gods. If the Annihilation Civilization’s Expeditionary Army had arrived ten thousand years earlier, all would have perished here.

His own eighty-one brothers, even the weakest one possessed demigod strength.

And he was way too much stronger than the Yellow Emperor. He was simply destined by the Heavenly Mandate.

Of course, Ancestor Chiyou still lost in the end...

Afterward, Xingtian, also from the lineage of Emperor Yan, could not accept defeat either, and wanted to face the Yellow Emperor in single combat.

After Ancestor Chiyou’s death, he was arguably the strongest one-on-one fighter, immensely powerful.

Of course, he also ended up losing his head to the Yellow Emperor.

So, most of the wars in Hua Country’s mythological history are actually an extension of the Yan Huang conflict.

After Emperor Yan ceased to fight, Chiyou stepped in.

After Chiyou lost, Xingtian took his place...

And those survivors are imprisoned here?

"In that case, it’s very likely that those imprisoned are the defeated from Emperor Yan’s lineage? There might even be Chiyou Ancestor’s brothers..."

"Then I’m in luck! I am the contemporary General... I have a say in things..."

"When it’s our turn, each calls their own title; I call them ancestors, they call me General..."

Li Changhe couldn’t help but mockingly muse, and then analyzed: "But... why did Great Yi end up inside later?"
