Free Web NovelChapter 1546: Chapter 1529: Proclaiming Oneself Emperor
"The Central Province Eighteen Domains, are they a thing of the past?"
Even with Xiao Ye’s current Mental Realm, his heart couldn’t help but jolt as he followed the voice with his gaze.
In the distance, a tall Martial Artist with a full beard was striding through the air, casting a mocking look toward Xiao Ye.
"Don’t recognize me?"
Xiao Ye’s eyes grew calm. "May I ask, sir, what do you mean by that?"
"Hmph, judging by your look, you should be one of those Martial Artists who got scared and hid away all these years, which is why you don’t know the current situation in the Central State."
"It’s just... why should I tell you? Looking at your Cultivation, you’re only Emperor Realm sixth level, two Realms lower than me. There’s definitely no treasure on you worth my interest. I can’t be bothered wasting my breath."
After the bearded Martial Artist finished, he let out a disdainful cold snort and turned to leave.
Xiao Ye let out a soft sigh.
Nine years ago, he stood at the Peak Level of the True Spirit Continent, famed throughout the world, his status even a notch higher than the Four Great Emperor Domains’ Domain Lords, possessing the bearing of a Sovereign Over All. Among the Heroes of the world, who did not know his name?
And now, after just nine years, had he already been forgotten by the Martial Artists of the True Spirit Continent? freēwēbnovel.com
Boom!
Xiao Ye gently lifted his hand and waved. The aura of Perfect Wind Profoundness shot straight into the Nine Heavens. At once, a sky-filling gale swept across the field, its edge sharp as blades, able even to cut apart the void, surging to engulf that Martial Artist.
"Ah!"
The bearded Martial Artist, feeling the sky-piercing Mysterious Waves behind him, was so frightened that he jumped in shock and hurriedly tried to defend.
He possessed Emperor Realm eighth-level Cultivation and had also comprehended two kinds of Profoundness to the Great Achievement Realm. He was a rather powerful Titled Emperor Martial.
But how could he possibly be a match for Xiao Ye?
In just a few breaths, his Emperor Realm was nearly shattered. His body was sliced open by the fierce gale in countless places, blood streaming as he slammed into the ground. His expression went blank, his face turning green with terror.
He could scarcely have imagined, even if beaten to death, how Xiao Ye, with only Emperor Realm sixth-level Cultivation, could defeat him with a single move.
He even felt that if Xiao Ye had not held back, he would probably already have become a Corpse.
"Can you speak now?" Xiao Ye looked over calmly.
"I’ll talk, I’ll talk!" freewёbnoνel.com
"Lord, the history of the Central Province Eighteen Domains already ended nine years ago. Even the glorious era when the Four Great Emperor Domains stood high above has come to an end."
"All of this is because nine years ago, peerless powerhouses suddenly appeared in the Central State. Rumor has it they walked out from the Endless Sea, and every one of them had at least Half-step Emperor strength."
"When they came to the Central State, they began madly seizing Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures everywhere, even sucking Martial Artists’ essence blood, like demons, stirring up a slaughter that shook the heavens."
"Wuji Sect and the Four Great Emperor Domains rose up together against them, but they could not withstand these ferocious peerless powerhouses."
"Because among them, the strongest five had strength that reached through heaven and earth. They could suppress Half-step Emperors with a flip of the hand. They proclaimed themselves Emperors, and with a flick of a finger changed the situation of the Central Province Eighteen Domains. They even used Supreme Power to expand the borders of the Central State, dividing the world and forming the Five Emperor Divine Dynasty."
The bearded Martial Artist, scared out of his wits, hurriedly spilled out the words.
"Peerless powerhouses walking out from the Endless Sea must definitely be connected to that evil Forbidden Technique and the Ten Thousand Burial Pits!"
Xiao Ye’s mind roared. He thought of how, back then, when he entered the Ten Thousand Burial Pits, he had seen those words, ’Desire to Proclaim Emperor’, and that horrifying scene. Even his Soul trembled.
At that time, among the Martial Artists who followed the Supreme Empress, Ling had once told him a piece of Ancient Secret.
In the Ancient Era, there was a peerless figure on the True Spirit Continent who created an evil secret technique to extend Longevity and spread it widely.
Many Half Emperor Level figures, when their Lifespan was about to run out, would use this secret technique to Seal themselves, extending their Longevity into later generations, waiting to revive and seize the chance to assault the Emperor Realm. This was how the Endless Sea came into being.
On many islands in the Endless Sea, such Martial Artists were buried.
And now, the information revealed by this bearded Martial Artist perfectly matched the secret he knew.
To extend Longevity in itself is to go against Heaven, to invert Yin Yang. A secret technique as evil as this requires the absorption of a vast amount of essence blood.
These old monsters, upon reviving in this era, would definitely become scourges to the world of men.
No wonder the Human Race Four Emperors had said that the True Spirit Continent had entered a Dark Turmoil era.
Xiao Ye forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart and continued to ask many questions.
"The Four Great Emperor Domains were beaten to pieces, and only the Unrivaled Emperor Domain remained intact because the Unrivaled Emperor took over the Domain Lord’s position and submitted to the ’Heavenly Emperor’ among the Five Sealed Emperor Strong People, thus preserving it in its entirety?"
The more Xiao Ye learned, the more shocked he became.
Nine years of Time, and by the time he appeared again, the seas had already changed into mulberry fields.
As for the Wuji Sect he had founded, in this Dark Turmoil era, after the ’Dark Emperor’ among the Five Sealed Emperor Strong People made a move, it vanished without a trace.
The Cang Chu Domain where he now was, along with the four surrounding Great Domains, were all territories of the Heavenly Emperor Divine Dynasty founded by the Heavenly Emperor among the Five Sealed Emperor Strong People.
The Five Sealed Emperor Strong People divided up the world, Junlin over this era, unmatched by anyone, and at the same time restraining one another. Only thus was the chaotic Central State able to be temporarily pacified.
Yet the Central State Martial Artists were still all in constant fear for their lives.
Among the Five Sealed Emperor Strong People, the Heavenly Emperor was the one whose ways were the most benevolent. He had even taken the initiative to shelter many Martial Artists, utterly different from the cruelty and viciousness of the other Four Great Sealed Emperors, who sucked Martial Artists’ essence blood with evil methods.
Precisely because of this, the Unrivaled Emperor Domain chose to submit to the Heavenly Emperor.
During this period, the lofty Heavenly Emperor sat firmly within the Heavenly Emperor Divine Dynasty and opened up the Ten Great Passes.
Any Martial Artist who could pass through the Ten Great Passes could join the Heavenly Emperor Divine Dynasty, and those who performed outstandingly would even have a chance to become the Heavenly Emperor’s Direct Disciple.
With the Central State Martial Artists all feeling insecure, the Heavenly Emperor’s actions naturally caused a huge sensation.
After all, who wouldn’t want to find a place of shelter in a world in chaos?
Thus, large numbers of Martial Artists from the Central State rushed to the Heavenly Emperor Divine Dynasty, preparing to challenge the Ten Great Passes. This bearded Martial Artist, for instance, was here for that very reason.
And from this Martial Artist’s mouth, Xiao Ye heard a name that stirred him greatly.
The younger brother of the Wuji Sect Sect Leader Xiao Ye, who had shaken the world nine years ago—Xiao Fan—was rumored to have appeared in the Heavenly Emperor Divine Dynasty as well, intending to challenge the Ten Great Passes.
Though Wuji Sect had vanished without a trace, Xiao Fan was still alive. This allowed Xiao Ye to let out a long breath of relief, but his gaze turned increasingly icy.
"Martial Artists who used such an evil secret technique to survive into this era, whose hands are stained with blood and who walked out from mountains of Corpses and seas of Blood, how could they possibly be kind?"
"I fear this Heavenly Emperor is even more vicious than the other four Sealed Emperor Strong People."
"Xiao Fan going to challenge the Ten Great Passes—could it be that he means to seek the Heavenly Emperor’s protection?"
