Jian Qingyang had a great treasure on hand, along with two remnant copies of ancient manuals. He also controlled the Divine Lord Royal Seal. Hence, there were many people who eyed his treasures and position.
Jian Qingyang was always open-minded. He was unrestrained by conventions and he dedicated himself in the pursuit of martial arts. He also befriended heroes from all around the world.
Towards friends, he was generous and he would help them without needing anything in return.
Against enemies, he was firm and resolute in killing them. He never went soft and he would slaughter them without hesitation!
Time proved Jian Qingyang’s strength. It also proved that he had the ability to hold on to the position of Azure Yang Lord. Slowly, the number of people who challenged Jian Qingyang decreased.
Correspondingly, the people, who dared challenge him, were also stronger!
Finally, one day, a peerless figure came to the Central State Divine Territory.
The Central State was a territory of the Human race, but the person challenging Jian Qingyang was from the Demon race.
He was from the Western Seas and he was well known in the Western Seas as a figure who would one day become a Demon God.
In the 12 Empyrean Heavens, the Human race and the Demon race did not have a harmonious relationship. Throughout history, they had large scale wars. Although the two races were now largely at peace, there were always minor conflicts.
As for the position of a Great World’s Divine Lord, it was not restricted to anyone from the Human or Demon race.
The person with the necessary power would obtain the recognition of the Heavens and Earth, allowing the person to be in command of the Divine Lord Royal Seal.
The Divine Lord Royal Seal was a symbol of racial pride.
Now, a peerless figure from the Demon race had arrived in the land of Humans, with a bid to take the Divine Lord Royal Seal away, so how could the Human race endure this?
When Jian Qingyang received the news, his eyes blazed with fighting spirit as he felt an indescribable sense of excitement.
He had heard of the peerless figure who came from the Demon race. His name was Sha Hongxue*, he given this name because of his red hair. He had a mane of beautiful red hair which were intermixed with several silver threads.
Sha Hongxue was extremely famous amongst the Demon race in the Western Seas. If he was described by a sentence, it would be: “I’m most eccentric in Millenniums!”
He was an absolute eccentric!
In fact, Jian Qingyang was also an eccentric. However, despite being eccentric, he was a straightforward person who liked to befriend people. He was also approachable to his citizens.
On the other hand, Sha Hongxue was different. He was eccentric to the bone, which made him devoid of friends. Even the Demon race geniuses of the Western Seas were nothing in his eyes.
Very soon, the eccentric Sha Hongxue did something that was extremely consistent with his character. This peerless figure of the Demon race stood on the tallest divine mountain in the Central State Divine Territory and made his challenge that contained pure Yang laws.
When he finished writing the challenge proposal, gold beams shone, as the text flew downwards forming words that spanned hundreds of thousands of miles. It extended across the entire sky of the Central State Divine Territory!
The contents of the challenge specified that the Demon race was challenging the Human race. The time and location of the battle was specified clearly!
Numerous citizens of the entire Central State Divine Territory saw the challenge spread out across the sky.
Immediately, the news proliferated rapidly. This peerless figure of the Demon race was too arrogant!
In many ancient countries of the Central State, countless numbers of human elites were furious. They found Sha Hongxue extremely arrogant because he was a Demon race member who challenged them at their doorstep with the text sprawled across the sky of the Central State.
He even wanted to bring the Divine Lord Royal Seal back to the Demon race, and that was completely unacceptable!
In the Central State Divine Palace, Jian Qingyang saw it all. The fighting spirit in his eyes grew in intensity.
He was an extremely confident person. The more eccentric and powerful the opponent was, the more excited he was!
Furthermore, he was about to break through to a completely new realm with the “Yang God Manual”. His power would increase by leaps and bounds, so it was an opportune time for Sha Hongxue to make his challenge. Jian Qingyang wanted to use Sha Hongxue’s blood to write the legend of his invincibility!
This upcoming battle attracted numerous unparalleled Humans as spectators. It included many giant figures of the Demon race. All of them arrived at the Central State.
