The Competitive Golden Crow
🕑 Added 2024-10-29 14:31:04 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 291 ---
Carnage seeped through the Golden Crow's Trial Grounds.
The Golden Crow's Residual Spirit trembled. Her reddish-gold eyes quivered in the sky as countless monstrous 'Golden Eyes' in the area locked their gazes on her.
She felt uncomfortable for existing alone!
Not even the Four Creation Gods and Four Devil Emperors could make her feel like this.
Words can't even explain the pressure she felt right now.
"Haha, look how scared you are." Yu Long laughed carefreely, suppressing all the aura he released. Sure enough, the phenomenon disappeared with the arrival of his laughter.
"W-What are you...?" The Golden Crow sounded more polite and fearful now.
Yu Long shook his head gently. "I already answered that question. My name is Yu Long."
"Nice to meet you, Oh Noble Golden Crow... I'm sure you don't like to bully the weak and fear the strong."
"..."
The Golden Crow broke into cold sweats. Who is joking here?
You're literally coming to my Trial Grounds and acting like a mortal before bullying me.
No, is this young man a mortal in the first place?
He looks human, but nothing about him is human!
"What do you want from me?" The Golden Crow asked with a helpless sigh.
Yu Long smiled, "Well, you, actually."
"!!!" The Golden Crow panicked.
"I'm intrigued about the Golden Crow's Legacy, including yourself. So I will give you an offer you can't refuse..." He added mysteriously.
"Like?"
"A new life and body."
"!!!" The Golden Crow was shocked again.
Something like revival is possible in this world, but she is only the residual soul of the Golden Crow. She's not even the Golden Crow who boasted her might in the Primordial Era of Gods.
"You..."
"You're not tricking me, right?" She couldn't afford to fall into a trap.
"Do you think I will bother myself using trickery with the power I showed you earlier?" Yu Long snorted at her.
"That's true..." The Golden Crow believed there was nothing mere about this monster. "But how?"
"I don't think you have the Primordial Seal of Life & Death."
"While I can sense Primordial Dragon and Phoenix Blood in you, I doubt they give you the ability to revive someone from death, especially me, who was only a residual soul."
"Could it be that you are from that place?"
Yu Long raised his eyebrow before answering, "If you're talking about the other side of Primal Chaos Dimension's Wall, you're gravely mistaken."
"That other side is still part of this universe."
"I'm actually a soul from outside the Primal Chaos Dimension who got reincarnated into this world."
"Impossible-!" The Golden Crow wanted to refute Yu Long's heinous claim immediately but stopped midway because those 'bizarre' and 'scary' powers shouldn't be from this world.
After calming herself, the Golden Crow mumbled, "An outsider... To think something like this could happen."
Yu Long chuckled, "It seemed you don't know the state outside the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley."
"I'm afraid the world is no longer the place you once knew."
"The Primordial Era of Gods has ended, but a more troublesome era began sixteen years ago..."
"A new era..." The Golden Crow's voice becomes heavier.
"Yes, the Era of Invasion." Yu Long gave her a 'solemn' look.
"Several external forces have already put their eyes on the Primal Chaos Dimension. Those in the Realm of Gods can somehow protect themselves, but those in lower realms are 'eventually' destined to perish if we don't stop this invasion."
"I thought you're an outsider, too?" The Golden Crow was puzzled.
Yu Long shrugged, "If I have to choose between a whole world for myself or sharing it with others, I'd rather pick the former."
"After all, I experienced a rebirth and grew attached to this world. I can't afford to let some annoying people inconvenience me left and right."
"Not to mention, these invaders are my old enemies. They are like undying cockroaches that are hard to kill."
"I see..." The Golden Crow couldn't help but nod in agreement.
"So, about my revival."
"We can do it anytime." Yu Long replied casually. "I will do it using my power, allowing you to become a new lifeform with Golden Crow's Essence."
"Don't worry, everything will be fine. I've revived the Phoenix and the Primordial Dragon. They even become my subordinate and friend."
"Hmph, if that wimpy Phoenix can undergo this rebirth, then this queen can do it, too!" The Golden Crow rumbled when she heard Yu Long had revived Phoenix's Spirit in the Profound Sky Continent.
"Let's do this!"
Wooosh!
A burst of golden flame replaced the Golden Crow's eyes.
Then, a woman appeared. She has a tall, hourglass body wrapped in that reddish-golden gown. Her long white hair cascaded to her back with two fringes swaying on each side of her fair face.
If we are talking about beauty, she's top-notch. Her face is noble and attractive, especially with that sharp nose, red lips, and reddish-gold eyes.
"You revealed your humanoid form faster than I thought." Yu Long commented.
The Golden Crow pursed her lips and replied, "Like I have a choice before your monstrous presence. I have neither power nor will to resist that power of yours."
"Are you trying to make a good impression now?"
"What, I can't?"
"Hah, you're more thick-skinned than I thought."
"..."
The Golden Crow bitterly sighed inside. If it were any other people, she would decimate them with her Golden Flame and reduce them to ashes, but she can't with Yu Long.
So, she could only endure.
"Jin Wuya." She said calmly. "That's my name."
"I don't want to be referred to as the Golden Crow forever, especially not by you..."
Yu Long nodded in understanding, "Very well, Jin Wuya. I will call you by that name from now on."
"What about the Phoenix? How do you refer to her?" Jin Wuya asked.
"Well, I gave her a new name." Yu Long replied with a faint smile.
Jin Wuya was speechless, "That's no good then! You must give me a new name, too!"
"I want a new name for my new life!"
"Okay, let me think while I turn you into my Kaiju." Yu Long gave Jin Wuya an amused look. He didn't expect her to be this competitive whenever Phoenix mentioned.
No wonder Yuyan, the Emerald Phoenix, never mentioned anything about the Golden Crow.
"Wait, wait, it's not going to be painful, right?" Jin Wuya made sure that Yu Long won't hurt her. She hasn't completely trusted him.
Yu Long rolled his eyes, "You're the Golden Crow. Don't tell me you can't handle some pain?"
"Who said I can't handle some pain? This queen has experienced the horrors of Devil Races in the Primordial War!" Jin Wuya answered immediately, not wanting to look weak.
"Yeah, sure." Yu Long replied flatly.
"Before I start... Do you have any qualities or power you want to wield?"
"With Kaiju Maker, I can modify your origin, which means I can attach additional elemental attributes to you."
"You can do that?" The Golden Crow's eyes widened in disbelief.
Isn't Yu Long's power no different than the Ancestral God?
Unknown to the Golden Crow, the Ancestral God has become Yu Long's Kaiju and Personal Maid.
The Golden Crow thought about it before saying, "If possible, I want you to add Star and Space Attribute to me."
"Star and Space? Got it." Yu Long nodded, seizing Jin Wuya's fair hand.
"Let's start!"
"Mm!" Jin Wuya calmed her breath and nodded, looking very eager for a life-changing impact.
