Chapter 452 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 25 – The Original ResidentsTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinHearing the humph sound, Qin Yu turned around to look at the origin of the sound. The person who had humped earlier was a cold looking middle aged man. His ice-cold gaze contained vicious fierceness within them.“What a fierce man.” Qin Yu still had a tranquil smile on his face.The man in front of him possessed fairly decent strength. He was a seventeen star Emperor. Only comparing their bodies, that man was at the same level as Qin Yu. Unfortunately… if they were to really fight, Qin Yu was absolutely confident that he could take care of him in a single hit.“Liu Xing, this is Vice Sect Master Liu Lan. Vice Sect Master Liu Lan is already at the seventeen star Emperor level. He is the second strongest expert in our Gold Punishment Sect.” Great Elder Fu Lan immediately said to Qin Yu. “Next to Vice Sect Master Liu Lan is Vice Sect Master Bao Yu. As for the final one of the Three Great Vice Sect Masters, you’ve already met him. He’s Vice Sect Master Kou Feng. As for this person, he is our Gold Punishment Sect’s prestigious Guard Elder.”In the middle of the great all, Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan was seated on the master seat.To the right of the Gold Punishment Lord’s seat were three seats. There sat the Vice Sect Masters Liu Lan and Bao Yu. The last seat was empty. Qin Yu suspected that it should be the seat for that Vice Sect Master Kou Feng.To the left of the Gold Punishment Lord’s seat were four seats. Only the Guard Elder sat on the first one. The other three were all empty. Qin Yu knew that those ought to be the seats of Wen Feng, Great Elder and himself.Qin Yu merely slightly bowed. He indifferently said. “Liu Xing pays his respects to Vice Sect Master Liu Lan, Vice Sect Master Bao Yu and the Guard Elder.”Immediately after, Qin Yu stopped looking at Liu Lan. Instead, he turned to the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan and slightly bowed. “Liu Xing pays his respects to Your Majesty.” Qin Yu’s appearance, expression as well as his words have all displayed his proud and aloof personality.Originally, when people see the Gold Punishment Lord, they would bow completely and say “Baijian (kowtow and pay one’s respect to) Your Majesty.” Qin Yu, however, merely slightly bowed and said ‘Pays his respects.’ The difference between the two was immensely great.[TL: Okay, this is pretty hard to translate. What Qin Yu did was that he said basically said ‘I, Liu Xing, saw Your Majesty.’ This basically means paying one’s respect. However, the Baijian version would be: ‘I, Liu Xing, kowtowed and saw Your Majesty.’ See the difference? Essentially, both of them were very respectful but the second version made one more of a subordinate.]“Consecrated Liu Xing seems to be a bit arrogant.” Sneered that Vice Sect Master Liu Lan.Qin Yu however ignored that Vice Sect Master Liu Lan.Vice Sect Master Liu Lan’s expression immediately changed. This Liu Xing actually ignored his existence. How would he not get angry? Back then, Liu Lan had wanted to become the Gold Punishment Lord. However, he was merely a bit weaker than Xing Yuan and thus ended up with the position of Vice Sect Master. Other than Xing Yuan, he had never showed any respect to anyone.“Liu Lan, Liu Xing’s temperament might be a bit proud and aloof. You shouldn’t mind too much about it.” Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan spoke.Liu Lan coldly cast a side-eye glance to Qin Yu and then stopped talking.Qin Yu did not care about that Liu Lan at all. He knew that… this Liu Lan does not affect him much.“Liu Xing, I am very glad that you’ve come to the Sacred Mountain. Originally, I had thought that you’d continue training and ignore the position of Consecrated.” Xing Yuan said with a light smile.That Xing Yuan possessed a very sharp facial appearance. Even though he had just been sitting there, he was giving off the imposingness of Mount Tai, causing one to not dare to be the slightest contemptuous toward him.“Your Majesty, Liu Xing has come to the Sacred Mountain to accept the position of Consecrated. However, the main reason why he wanted to come to the Sacred Mountain was not merely to accept the Consecrated position.” Said Wen Feng with a smile. At the same time he looked to Qin Yu. Qin Yu took over from Wen Feng, he nodded and said. “Your Majesty, I came to the Sacred Mountain in hopes that Your Majesty would grant me a passage title plate to the Bewitching God Temple.”“Bewitching God Temple!”Liu Lan, Bao Yu and Kou Feng and the rest, including the Gold Punishment Lord himself, were all shocked. Even the Guard Elder who had his eyes closed the entire time also opened his pair of muddle eyes. He took a glance at Qin Yu before closing his eyes again.“Bewitching God Temple, there are indeed Divine Artifacts there, but Liu Xing, with your strength, you shouldn’t need any Divine Artifacts. As for High Quality Divine Artifacts, the possibility of obtaining one is extremely low.” Said Vice Sect Master Bao Yu.Qin Yu was merely silent.How could these people possibly know that Qin Yu possessed the Bewitching God Painting?“Liu Xing, our Three Great Sovereigns of our Dark Star Realm have already determined a rule that the Bewitching God Temple shall be closed all the time ordinarily. Only once every hundred thousand years would we all obtain an opportunity to enter it.” Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan frowned as he explained.Qin Yu frowned.“How much longer till the next time the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple will be opened?” Qin Yu asked.“The last time it was opened was over sixty thousand years ago. For the next time, it’ll take over thirty thousand years more.”Great Elder Fu Lan instead answered Qin Yu’s question.Over thirty thousand years?Qin Yu simply cannot wait that long. At once, Qin Yu spoke out. “Your Majesty, I was told that the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple was sealed together by the past Three Great Sovereigns through using their Inherited Treasures. Only through using the passage title plate refined by all Three Great Sovereigns would one be able to open the seal. I wish to obtain the help from Your Majesty to open the seal. I would like to know what I must do in order to have my request agreed?”Qin Yu’s question had made it clear that he was determined to enter the Bewitching God Temple.“It is not that I am not willing. As you are the Consecrated of our Gold Punishment Sect, I naturally would agree to help you. Merely… there is no certainty that the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord would agree to help you. Back then, the reason why such a rule was established, sealing the Bewitching God Temple and opening it once every hundred thousand years, was firstly to prevent others not from our Dark Star Realm from forcing their way into it and secondly to make sure the Divine Artifacts in the Dark Star Realm remain in control of our Three Great Sects.” Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan explained.Qin Yu grew slightly relaxed.“Since your majesty has agreed, why not invite the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord over to have a discussion?” Said Qin Yu sincerely.Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan smiled and nodded. “Good, I shall invite the two of them. Merely, the chance that the two of them would agree to it would be extremely low. You must know that the Black Flame Sect and the White Profound Sect had been in competition with us the entire time.”“For Your Majesty to be able to invite the other two Majesties to come, Liu Xing is already extremely thankful. If we were to be unable to come to an agreement at that time, then I can only renounce my wish to enter into the Bewitching God Temple.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.“Since you’re prepared to fail, then the matter would be easier to deal with.” The Gold Punishment Lord’s impression of the Liu Xing in front of him grew a lot better.The Gold Punishment Lord was originally a person with a very good temperament. Everyone who knew Xing Yuan, knew of his good temperament. Even though he had become the Gold Punishment Lord, Xing Yuan still did not have the arrogance of the sovereign.“Good, let’s not waste any more time. I shall now grant you the position of Consecrated.” The Gold Punishment Lord suddenly stood up. The few people that had been sitting all stood up following him. At this moment, Qin Yu also gave a well behaved salute.The etiquette of all the cultivators of the Dark Star Realm.A bow with the left fist to the right chest!“Take it.” The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan placed two items in front of Qin Yu.“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Qin Yu received the two items.These two items, one was an imperial order and the other was the title plate of the Consecrated. The imperial order was constructed by a special kind of silk cloth. Its toughness was comparable to that of a Top Quality Immortal Artifact.“Wen Feng, you are to bring Liu Xing to check out the ‘First Ancient Palace‘ and the ‘Inherited Palace.’” Said the Gold Punishment Lord with a light smile.Wen Feng stood up. “Yes, Your Majesty.”The Front Palace, Main Palace and many other palaces, were all located on the main mountain summit of the Sacred Mountain. At the same time, there were also a lot of places where cultivators lived. As for the seventeen summits that surrounded the main summit, seven of them were private residences, eight of them were the residences of previous Gold Punishment Lords. The remaining two were important palaces of the Gold Punishment Sect.These two palaces were respectively the First Ancient Palace and the Inherited Palace.First Ancient Palace occupied a very large area. It occupied roughly seventy percent of the summit that it was on. Qin Yu and Wen Feng were currently outside of the First Ancient Palace.“Halt. Lord Wen Feng, please have that Lordship take out his title plate.” Shouted the guard of the First Ancient Palace coldly.Qin Yu looked to Wen Feng. Wen Feng explained. “Both the First Ancient Palace and the Inherited Palace are very important places for the Gold Punishment Sect. There are less than ten people in the entire Gold Punishment Sect that are qualified to enter into them. You, as the newly appointed Consecrated, are naturally qualified to enter into it.”Qin Yu promptly took out his Consecrated title plate.Upon seeing the title plate, that guard immediately bowed and saluted. “Lord Consecrated, please come in.”Qin Yu and Wen Feng walked through the gate together and entered the enormous First Ancient Palace. The First Ancient Palace was separated into the front hall and the back great hall. There were a lot of hanging boards in the front hall.Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from looking at those hanging boards.“The third Gold Punishment Lord was called Liu Tian. His place of birth was the Cedar Lotus Star. He reached the first star King level after spending seventy two years. After that, he left the Cedar Lotus Star and started to wander the interstellar space….”“The eighth Gold Punishment Lord was called Hong. His place of birth was unknown. The amount of time he cultivated was unknown. Killed the sixteen star Emperor level Massacre King, Xue Sheng….”Written on each board was the biographical notes of a Gold Punishment Lord.On the front hall, there hung a lot of boards. With a sweep of Qin Yu’s eyes, he saw numerous boards closely packed together. There were definitely no less than ten thousand boards total. Hanging in the front were early generations of Gold Punishment Lords. As Qin Yu and Wen Feng walked toward the back, there were even more boards.“Wen Feng, exactly how many Gold Punishment Lords have there been?” Qin Yu looked to Wen Feng.Wen Feng smiled and said. “Could it be that you are unable to tell with your Soul’s Power?”Qin Yu shook his head and smiled. “It’s not that I cannot count them. Rather, it’s because I was able to count the amount that I found it hard to believe. There are over seventy thousand boards here…. from the past till now, there’s already been over seventy thousand Gold Punishment Lords?”“That’s right. The current Gold Punishment Lord Majesty is already numbered over the seventy thousandth Gold Punishment Lord.” Wen Feng nodded.Qin Yu continued to ask. “In that case, how long would each generation’s Gold Punishment Lord usually hold their position?”Wen Feng smiled and shook his head. “That is very hard to say. Some Gold Punishment Lords ascended to their position when they were just a fifteen star Emperor. Someone like that might be a Gold Punishment Lord for several millions of years or several tens of millions of years, before ascending to the Divine Realm. There are some… for example our current Gold Punishment Lord, that took up the position at Eighteen Star Emperor level. Even though they’ve become the Gold Punishment Lord, they’ll also likely ascend to the Divine Realm in several tens of thousands of years or even earlier.”Qin Yu nodded.It was hard to tell how long each generation’s Gold Punishment Lord would last. Some were there for an extremely long time and could be several tens of millions of years. Some were there for a short period of time and would be there for less than ten thousand years. However, with over seventy thousand Gold Punishment Lords, even if each person were to be a Gold Punishment Lord for an average of a million years, that would still be over seven hundred billions of years.Furthermore, Qin Yu suspected that… the average number of years was more than a million years.“Wen Feng, exactly how long does our Dark Star Realm’s history go back to?” Qin Yu asked.Wen Feng muttered and shook his head. “I’m afraid that no one knows. As far as I know, the history of the Dark Star Realm was separated into two different phases. The first phase was without Inherited Treasures. At that time, the Dark Star Realm was extremely chaotic. People were at war with one another constantly. This lasted until the Inherited Treasures appeared. Only then did the Dark Star Realm enter a peaceful development phase.”Qin Yu was astonished.Holy, the amount of years these seventy thousand Gold Punishment Lords represented was merely the years when the Inherited Treasures appeared in the Dark Star Realm. Who knows exactly how long the chaotic period was?The history of the Dark Star Realm was truly long.Wen Feng gasped. “The people of our Dark Star Realm were very warlike. Without a powerful enough strength, who amongst us would serve someone? Only when the Three Inherited Treasures appeared did everyone in the Dark Star Realm start serving the holders of the Three Inherited Treasures.”Qin Yu’s gaze was shot toward the back. Behind the front hall was the back great hall. The dimension of the back great hall was much greater than the front hall. There were numerous sculptures there.“Over there are the sculptures of every generation of Gold Punishment Lords. Do you wish to go and admire them?” Said Wen Feng with a smile.“Let it pass, it’s not even the actual person. What is there to admire?” Qin Yu said that and turned around. “Wen Feng, let’s proceed to the Inherited Palace. Oh, that’s right, what’s in the Inherited Palace?”Wen Feng and Qin Yu walked as they chatted.“The Inherited Palace is the location where each successive Gold Punishment Lord merges with the Inherited Treasure. For example, after the previous Gold Punishment Lord ascended to the Divine Realm, the Inherited Treasure had remained in the Inherited Palace the entire time. This lasted all the way until His Majesty Xing Yuan appeared. Only then did he fuse with the Inherited Treasure. The person in charge of the Inherited Palace is the Guard Elder.” Wen Feng explained in details.By the time Wen Feng finished, the two of them had already arrived outside the Inherited Palace.The Inherited Palace was very simple and unadorned. It was black all over. It gave off an ancient aura. Merely standing outside the Inherited Palace would give one a repressive sensation.“Liu Xing, Wen Feng, come inside.” A voice sounded from within the palace.Qin Yu looked over. On the corner of the palace sat cross-legged a dark and thin old man. It was the Guard Elder. At this moment, the Guard Elder had already stood up and was walking toward Qin Yu and Wen Feng.“What is the painting on the wall?” Qin Yu looked to the wall of the Inherited Palace in confusion.On the walls were rows upon rows of carved pictures. With a sweep of his gaze, Qin Yu discovered that there were a total of ten thousand carved pictures on the wall.“On the walls are some of the scenes of the people of our Dark Star Realm fighting each other before the appearance of the Inherited Treasures.” Said the Guard Elder.Qin Yu suddenly looked to a picture amongst the many.That picture was actually the Interstellar Map of the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Merely, there were a lot of symbols on this Interstellar Map. It was as if the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was occupied by the people of the Dark Star Realm.“What’s with this? Where are the people from the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and the Demon Realm?” Qin Yu asked curiously.The Guard Elder had a long sigh. “After countless years, majority of our Dark Star Realm’s descendants have forgotten about it…. the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was originally called the Dark Star Realm.”Upon hearing this, Qin Yu was unable to refrain his shock.What? The entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was originally called the Dark Star Realm?The Guard Elder closed his eyes and slowly said. “The people of our Dark Star Realm were the original residents of this Cosmic Space. As for those Immortals, Devil and Demons, they are all people who have ascended from the lower realm…merely, there are too many of them that have ascended to our Dark Star Realm. Furthermore, their ability to reproduce and multiply is truly too powerful, greatly surpassing us of the Dark Star Realm.”
Chapter 453 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 26 – The Gathering of the Three Great SovereignsTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinIt was the first time that Qin Yu came to know that the original inhabitants of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm were actually the people from the Dark Star Realm. The Immortals, Devils and Demons were all people that have ascended from the lower realm and then started to propagate in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.It was likely that even the name ‘Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, was named by people afterwards.“To ascend from a lower realm to a higher realm is the natural law of the cosmos. It is something that cannot be changed. Thus, the Three Great Sovereigns of our Dark Star Realm from back then decided to step aside and retreat back to a single place to reside on. After all, our Dark Star Realm’s population was tiny to begin with… it was useless for us to occupy so many territories.” The Guard Elder said slowly.Qin Yu gasped in his heart.If the people from the Dark Star Realm had wanted to really kill those that ascended from the lower realm, then with the strength of those seniors of the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and Demon Realm, that had just ascended, it would simply have been impossible for them to resist. It was likely that there would be a large number of casualties.“As those people ascended from the lower realm, the cosmic space restrictions on them was much greater too. It was also a lot harder for them to reach Emperor level…. thus, even though their population is hundreds of millions times greater than ours, the number of Emperor level experts they possessed were much fewer than ours.” The Guard Elder face was filled with confidence.Wen Feng who stood to the side also nodded. He said. “If we were to truly fight each other, then we merely need to execute the ‘gravitational barrier’ and then fight them at close range. Humph… our people from the Dark Star Realm would definitely be able to surpass them and kill them.”Qin Yu was able to tell that these people from the Dark Star Realm were very arrogant.However, Qin Yu knew… that although there are more Emperor level experts on the Dark Star Realm, there were still some extremely powerful individuals in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. When compared to the Dark Star Realm, they were not much inferior.In this great hall, other than the four walls possessing numerous cravings, there was also an enormous altar over a hundred meters wide and long in the middle of the great hall.“This is the Sacred Altar. Whenever the position of Gold Punishment Lord is unoccupied, the Inherited Treasure will be kept in the Sacred Altar.” Said the Guard Elder tranquilly.Qin Yu asked puzzled. “Could it be,Guard Elder, that you are not afraid of people harboring unfathomable motives coming to plunder the Inherited Treasure?”Wen Feng who stood to the side started laughing loudly. “Liu Xing, I suspect that you do not know this. This Sacred Altar contains within it the power of the Inherited Treasure. Forcibly seize it? That is simply an impossible matter.”Qin Yu was unable to refrain from spreading out his Divine Awareness. It covered the entire Sacred Altar.Sure enough… a very astonishing power was contained within the Sacred Altar. The feeling it gave Qin Yu was very similar to the feeling that the seal on the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple gave Qin Yu.Even without the Inherited Treasure in the Sacred Altar, it was already giving such a sensation. Once the Inherited Treasure was placed inside, Qin Yu reckoned that its defense would become even more powerful. No wonder Wen Feng said it was impossible to forcibly take it.“Guard Elder, today I have gained knowledge and experience.” Qin Yu smiled and nodded. “Thus, I shall not bother you anymore. I’ll take my leave first.”Seeing Qin Yu like this, Wen Feng was a bit confused. However, he also bid his farewell to the Guard Elder.The Guard Elder nodded.Qin Yu and Wen Feng left the Inherited Palace.In Wen Feng’s personal palace.As one of the eight big shots of the Gold Punishment Sect, his palace also occupied a very wide area. He also possessed many servants. For the time being, Qin Yu had decided to stay here.“Liu Xing, what exactly are you planning to do, going to the Bewitching God Temple? Is it possible for you to tell me?” Wen Feng asked.Qin Yu knew that Wen Feng would ask him this question. He had already made up an excuse. With a smile, he said. “Wen Feng, do you know of my true strength?”“I’m not certain, I think you ought to be a fifteen star Emperor level.” Said Wen Feng uncertainly. Wen Feng’s soul’s level was much inferior to Qin Yu’s. Thus, he was simply unable to see through Qin Yu’s level. Naturally, he was also unable to determine Qin Yu’s level.“Fifteen star Emperor level?” Qin Yu lightly smiled and shook his head.Wen Feng’s eyes suddenly shined.It would appear that this Liu Xing was indeed concealing his strength. Wen Feng felt a bit of admiration toward Liu Xing. However, he was also puzzled. What exactly was the true strength of this Liu Xing who stood before him?“I am seventeen star Emperor level.” Qin Yu said to Wen Feng with a smile.“Seventeen star Emperor level!” Even though Wen Feng was prepared, he was still greatly shocked.Qin Yu continued. “As for the reason why I want to go to the Bewitching God Temple, it’s precisely because of the treasures within it. My current strength is equivalent to that Vice Sect Master Liu Lan. Yet It would still be a bit hard for me to defeat him and become the next Gold Punishment Lord.”“Haha… Liu Xing, you’re certainly as I had expected.” Wen Feng started laughing. “Liu Xing, I have heard that His Majesty will be undergoing the Divine Tribulation soon. Originally I had thought that… once His Majesty ascends to the Divine Realm, then with Liu Lan’s strength, it would be absolutely certain that he’ll become the next Gold Punishment Lord. However now, it would appear that it is still very hard to tell. I reckon that Liu Lan has no idea that your strength is already at the seventeen star Emperor level.”Qin Yu nodded.This was the only explanation Qin Yu could tell others.“His Majesty will be undergoing the Divine Tribulation soon?” Qin Yu was shocked. He didn’t know about this information.Wen Feng nodded and smiled. “That’s right. You’ve just arrived on the Sacred Mountain, how would you know about such hidden matter as this? Furthermore, the matter of His Majesty undergoing the Divine Tribulation was not publicized at all. In these recent days, that Liu Lan has already prepared to take on the position of the Gold Punishment Lord the moment His Majesty ascends to the Divine Realm.”Qin Yu was excited.He decided that it would be pretty good to compete for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord. At the very least, he would be able to experience the strength of one of the Three Great Inherited Treasures of the Dark Star Realm.“Liu Lan, if he wants to become the next Gold Punishment Lord, he’ll have to pass through me first.” Qin Yu’s face was filled with confidence.“Good, Liu Xing, I’ll support you!” Wen Feng patted Qin Yu’s shoulder. He then gasped and said. “Back then, I had wanted to become the Gold Punishment Lord when I reached fifteen star Emperor level. However, His Majesty Xing Yuan appeared. Afterwards, Liu Lan also appeared. His Majesty Xing Yuan was very broad-minded and open, it is one thing for him to become the Gold Punishment Lord. However, someone like Liu Lan…. he’s vicious and arrogant. I do not like him in the slightest.”A trace of hatred appeared in Wen Feng’s eyes.“After knowing that His Majesty was about to undergo the Divine Tribulation, that Liu Lan grew even more domineering. From his point of view… with his strength as a seventeen star Emperor level expert, for him to succeed the position of the Gold Punishment Lord was merely as simple as stretching his hand and grabbing it.”“Liu Xing, you must definitely teach that Liu Lan a lesson.” Wen Feng said to Liu Xing.“Rest assured. However before that, I shall first go to the Bewitching God Temple. If I were able to obtain a good weapon, then I’ll hold even more certainty in defeating him.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.Suddenly…A man walked in front outside Wen Feng’s private palace. It was Vice Sect Master Kou Feng. Vice Sect Master Kou Feng still had an amiable smile on his face. He said. “Liu Xing, His Majesty the Black Flame Lord has arrived.”“His Majesty the Black Flame Lord has arrived?” Qin Yu was overjoyed.Wen Feng also said. “Liu Xing, make sure to try your best to persuade His Majesty the Black Flame Lord to help you.”Vice Sect Master Kou Feng said while smiling. “The Three Great Sacred Planets are all core planets in the Three Great Star Fields. Furthermore, they all possess Interstellar Conveying Arrays to each other. After the Black Flame Lord received His Majesty’s transmission, he immediately rushed over. It is said that His Majesty the White Profound Lord had also set off, I reckon he’ll be arriving shortly.”Qin Yu was overjoyed. He had not expected that the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord would come so fast.“Vice Sect Master Kou Feng, quickly, bring me over.” Qin Yu’s face was filled with happiness.“His Majesty the Black Flame Lord is located in the Sect’s main hall and is chatting with His Majesty Xing Yuan right now.” Kou Feng explained to Qin Yu while flying with him and Wen Feng toward the summit where the main palace was located at.In the great conference hall.“Haha, Xing Yuan, what I admire the most is your straightforwardness! Haha…” Qin Yu and the other two were still outside when they heard a loud and clear laughter.Vice Sect Master Kou Feng said in a low voice. “The person speaking is His Majesty Black Flame Lord. Liu Xing, His Majesty the Black Flame Lord is very straightforward. You must make sure to not speak in a roundabout way or do something like containing implied meanings within your words. Those are things His Majesty the Black Flame Lord hates the most.”“I understand.” Qin Yu thanked Vice Sect Master Kou Feng’s advice in his heart.When trying to befriend someone, knowing their temperament was very important.Qin Yu, Wen Feng and Kou Feng walked to the doorstep of the main hall together. They then walked into the main hall.Qin Yu’s gaze immediately locked onto the man with the most robust body in the main hall. That man possessed a steadfast appearance, extremely bulging muscles and fiery red hair… this was one of the Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm, the Black Flame Lord.“Seventeen star Emperor level strength. However, he possesses a mysterious aura. It ought to be because of that Inherited Treasure.” Qin Yu had made this determination in his heart.“Liu Xing pays his respects to Your Majesty Black Flame Lord.” Qin Yu slightly bowed and said with a smile.The Black Flame Lord took a glance at Qin Yu. He then looked to the Gold Profound Lord Xing Yuan in shock. “Xing Yuan, this Consecrated of your Gold Punishment Sect is extraordinary indeed. Even I am unable to determine his soul’s level.”“Not only you, I too am unable to see through it.” Xing Yuan said while smiling.“He’s really that exceptional?” A clear and cold voice sounded from behind Qin Yu. Qin Yu turned around to look… what he saw was a handsome man walking over with a maid.“Ju Mi, if you don’t believe us then you can try checking it yourself.” Joked the Black Profound Lord.At this moment, Qin Yu took note of the strength of the person that had just arrived.This man called Ju Mi was also seventeen star Emperor level. As for the maid following behind him, she was fifteen star Emperor level… furthermore, Qin Yu even recognized this maid. It was precisely the woman that he met on the Fifteen Star Emperor Level Dark Star, Han Xue.“Liu Xing.” Han Xue was a bit surprised to see Qin Yu.“Little Xue, you know him?” Ju Mi turned around to look at Han Xue.Han Xue nodded. “Master, this Liu Xing is the person that I have mentioned to master before, he’s that man who trained for three thousand years on the Fifteen Star Emperor Level Dark Star.”“Fifteen star Emperor level? With such a soul, I suspect that his level is higher than merely fifteen star Emperor.” Said Ju Mi with a light smile.Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan said to Qin Yu. “Liu Xing, this is the White Profound Lord.”“As I have anticipated.” Qin Yu was already prepared. Immediately, he slightly bowed and said. “Liu Xing pays his respects to Your Majesty White Profound Lord.”“Liu Xing, right? I’ve heard that Xing Yuan invited Wu Shan and I to come this time precisely for your matter.” The White Profound Lord’s appearance was as clear and cold as when he just walked in. It was as if his emotion have not moved at all.Qin Yu nodded and said. “Precisely. I wish to enter the Bewitching God Temple. However, it is not yet the unified time to enter the Bewitching God Temple. Thus, I wish for the Three Majesties to help refine a passage title plate for me.”“This matter is a bit troublesome.” The Black Profound Lord Wu Shan’s blazing black brows jumped. He then started laughing. “Oh Liu Xing, there’s not anything good in the Bewitching God Temple anyways. It shouldn’t matter for you to not go in there.”Qin Yu merely shook his head. “Your Majesty Black Flame Lord, please help me out.”At this moment, the Black Flame Lord turned his gaze to the White Profound Lord. The White Profound Lord merely sat and shook his head indifferently without saying a single word.Immediately, the atmosphere within the great hall turned oppressive.“Wu Shan, Ju Mi, Liu Xing’s soul’s level is extremely high. I reckon he would ascend to the Divine Realm very fast. Isn’t it merely allowing him to enter the Bewitching God Temple once? That’s not really anything of great concern…. just help him out. Furthermore, it would merely take us a blink of an eye’s time to refine a passage title plate together. Now that we mentioned it, I have yet to refine any passage title plate after becoming the Gold Punishment Lord. Furthermore, I would soon be ascending to the Divine Realm, if I were to not refine a passage title plate now, then I reckon that I’ll never have a chance to refine one again.” Joked Xing Yuan.However, what Xing Yuan said was the truth.He had been the Gold Punishment Lord for merely several thousands of years. The Dark Star Realm would usually allow people to enter into the Bewitching God Temple once every hundred thousand years. Only in every hundred thousand years would the Three Great Sovereigns meet and refine a passage title plate together. Xing Yuan would be ascending to the Divine Realm shortly, it was truly possible that he would not have an opportunity to refine a passage title plate again.“Ju Mi, even Xing Yuan had said something like this, just help us out a little.” Wu Shan muttered to himself for a moment and then said to Ju Mi.Ju Mi calmly shook his head indifferently. He said. “There seems to be no need for this Liu Xing to enter the Bewitching God Temple. Why must we break the rules? At the very least, there ought to be a reason for us to break the rules. Liu Xing, if you are able to provide a reason that can convince me, then I will be able to agree to help.”Reason?Qin Yu took a look around the grand hall.There were quite a lot of people in the great hall. Even that Vice Sect Master Liu Lan was present.“Your Majesty White Profound Lord, Your Majesty Black Flame Lord, is it possible for the two of you to come to a side hall with me?” Said Qin Yu with a smile.Upon hearing those words, the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan, Vice Sect Master Liu Lan and the rest of the people were surprised. However, Wen Feng was instead smiling. He believed that Qin Yu was about to mention the matter of competing for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord. At this moment, Liu Lan was present. Thus it would be hard for Qin Yu to mention it in the grand hall.The Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord took a glance at each other.“Fine, I shall see what kind of reason you’ll give to persuade me.” Nodded the White Profound Lord.Soon after, Qin Yu, Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord entered into a side hall. Once they entered into the side hall, the White Profound Lord waved his hand and set up a barrier around them. He then looked to Qin Yu. “Liu Xing, I have already set up a barrier around this side hall, just go ahead and speak without hesitation.”The Black Flame Lord also looked to Qin Yu.“Your Majesty Black Flame Lord, Your Majesty White Profound Lord, the two of you have guessed correctly. My soul’s level is high. My strength is also above fifteen star Emperor level. It is actually seventeen star Emperor level.” Qin Yu said.The Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord nodded. The two of them were not shocked in the slightest.“The two of you ought to know that His Majesty Xing Yuan would be undergoing the Divine Tribulation and ascending to the Divine Realm shortly. When that time comes, that Liu Lan and I would have to contest over the position of the Gold Punishment Lord. Currently, I do not have absolute certainty that I would be able to defeat him. However, my soul’s level is high. I believe that if I were to go to the Bewitching God Temple and explore, I would be able to obtain a pretty good harvest. Thus, I want to obtain a good treasure so that I can defeat him. I wish for the two of you to help me out.” Qin Yu said his reasoning in one breath.The Black Flame Lord laughed and said. “So that was the case. This could also be considered as a reason. Ju Mi, what do you think?”The White Profound Look shook his head indifferently. “Competing for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord? It does not matter to us at all who would be the next Gold Punishment Lord. It also does not affect the Dark Star Realm at all. Why then must I help you?”Qin Yu was stunned.With his brows creased, Qin Yu took a deep breath. He then stared at the White Profound Lord. “Your Majesty White Profound Lord, then could you help me out once in honor of this?” A ring suddenly appeared on Qin Yu’s finger…. the Blazing Profound Ring!

Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 27 – Entering the Bewitching God TempleTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThe calm and indifferent expression that the White Profound Lord Ju Mi originally had suddenly disappeared. An astonishing cold ray of light burst forth from his eyes. He stared at the Blazing Profound Ring on Qin Yu’s finger. Black Flame Lord Wu Shan’s expression had also turned serious.“Liu Xing, from where did you obtain this Blazing Profound Ring?” The White Profound Lord Ju Mi stared at Qin Yu with an extremely serious expression.Qin Yu took a glance at the White Profound Lord and the Black Flame Lord. He nodded and said. “I obtained this Blazing Profound Ring from Immortal Emperor Ni Yang from the Immortal Realm. You could consider that he gifted it to me.”“Gifted it to you? Impossible.” Said the White Profound Lord coldly. “Ni Yang knew of the usefulness of this Blazing Profound Ring. He would definitely not gift it to others.”“However, he had died.” Qin Yu said directly. “If he was still alive, then perhaps he would not gift it away. However, he was about to die. As someone who was about to die, how would they care about mere worldly possessions?”Qin Yu lightly smiled and said. “Your Majesty Black Flame Lord, Your Majesty White Profound Lord, the two of you might not know of this. I have once wandered the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm. This Blazing Profound Lord was obtained through my luck. I know that… Your Majesties possessed a friendly relationship with Immortal Emperor Ni Yang. I hope that the two of you are willing to honor the Blazing Profound Ring and help me this one time.”The Black Flame Lord sighed and said. “Can you tell me how he died? Before Ni Yang died, he had once sent a transmission to us saying that he would definitely die. Merely, no matter how Ju Mi and I ask him, he still refused to tell us the cause of his death.”The White Profound Lord also looked to Qin Yu.Qin Yu understood the reason why. He reckoned that Immortal Emperor Ni Yang who was poisoned by a poisonous bug of the Divine Realm was embarrassed to tell his good friends. All the way till the time before his death, this Ni Yang likely was unable to bear to contain his secret anymore and ended up telling Qin Yu who have found his Ni Yang’s Realm.“Your Majesty Black Flame Lord, Your Majesty White Profound Lord, to be honest, Immortal Ni Yang’s death is somewhat vexed. Before he died, he also did not wish for the reason of his death to be known and spread about. Please forgive me.” Qin Yu did not say the reason.The Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord took a glance at each other and sighed.“Vexed death, I truly do not know how vexed Ni Yang’s death was.” The Black Flame Lord took a deep sigh. He then looked to Qin Yu. “Liu Xing, since you’ve obtained this Blazing Profound Ring, we most definitely could help you out with a trifling matter like refining a passage title plate.”The White Profound Lord also nodded.Qin Yu felt a bust of relaxation.His gamble was a success.Qin Yu was also without any other choice. Otherwise, how would be possibly take out the Blazing Profound Ring? Taking out the Blazing Profound Ring, Qin Yu had even worried that the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord might think that he was the one who killed Ni Yang. He had even prepared a large amount of excuses. Fortunately… Immortal Ni Yang had communicated with the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord before his death.“Thank you Your Majesties.” Qin Yu said his thanks.The White Profound Lord said indifferently. “No need. If you want to thank someone, then thank Ni Yang. Unfortunately, Ni Yang has died, sigh…”As Qin Yu and the other two were chatting on the side hall, the couple people in the main hall also started discussing. The topic of their discussion was whether or not Qin Yu would be capable of persuading the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord.“You all know of His Majesty White Profound Lord’s temperament. He’s not that easily persuaded.” Vice Sect Master Bao Yu said with a smile.Vice Sect Master Liu Lan had his eyes closed as if he didn’t care in the slightest.“From the way I see it, as that Liu Xing is that anxious of going to the Bewitching God Temple, he ought to have prepared a method to persuade Ju Mi and Wu Shan. Although I am also unable to think of a reason as to how he’ll persuade them.” Laughed the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan.Wen Feng who stood down below had been wondering the entire time whether or not Qin Yu’s reason would be able to persuade the White Profound Lord.“They’ve come out.” Said the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan while smiling. At the same time, he looked to the door to the side hall. Wen Feng, Liu Lan and the rest of them all looked over too. They saw Qin Yu and the White Profound Lord and the Black Flame Lord walking out from the door.Upon seeing Qin Yu’s expression, everyone had an idea in their mind.“Consecrated Liu Xing’s mood seems to be pretty good. I suspect he managed to successfully persuade Wu Shan and Ju Mi.” Said Xing Yuan while laughing.Qin Yu was about to speak but the Black Flame Lord Wu Shan instead opened his mouth first. He laughed loudly. “Liu Xing had given us a pleasant surprise. Mn, we’ll help him refine a passage title plate.”The White Profound Lord also nodded.“Are we refining it here?” Asked the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan.Both the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord nodded. They did not object to it.Qin Yu was instead shocked. Could it be that one could refine the passage title plate anywhere? There was no need for any preparation at all?Wen Feng who stood to the side saw Qin Yu’s puzzled expression. He said via voice transmission. “Liu Xing, refining a passage title plate is extremely hard for us. However, to the Three Majesties, it’s something that can be done in the blink of an eye.”“Good. As this is my first time refining a passage title plate, therefore I shall be the one deciding its appearance.”The Gold Punishment Lord flipped his hand around and took out a dark black colored metal. A burst of Gold Force was emitted from his palm and wrapped around that dark black colored metal. Under the powerful control of the Gold Force, the appearance of that metal started to change.In merely a blink of an eye, this dark black colored metal turned into a hexagon shaped title plate. On the front side was the word ‘Title’ whereas the back side had a vivid and lifelike sculpture. It was precisely the sculpture of the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan himself.“Xing Yuan, you’re truly narcissistic.” Upon seeing the sculpture, the Black Flame Lord Wu Shan started laughing out loud. Everyone in the main hall was also unable to refrain themselves from laughing.Xing Yuan said in a deadly earnest tone. “This is likely the only time that I would get to refine a passage title plate, you should all be a bit more serious. Well then…. the appearance has been set. Wu Shan, Ju Mi, let’s refine it.”The White Profound Lord and the Black Flame Lord nodded.The expressions on the Three Great Sovereigns all turned serious. Soon after, they all extended their right palm simultaneously. From the center of the palms of the three people, three rays of lights simultaneously shot out. One of the rays of light was golden colored. The other was white colored and the last one was black colored. The three rays of lights gathered on that title plate.Qin Yu narrowed his eyes in front of the light.“The power of inherited treasures.” Qin Yu was able to clearly sense that the three rays of lights all contained a mysterious energy. The aura of the energy was exactly the same as the aura of the energy of the seal at the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple.In an instant, the Three Great Sovereigns withdrew their hands simultaneously.And at this moment, faint light was wandering about the surface of the title plate. After a brief period of refinement, this title plate had changed, becoming something more than just an ordinary metal.The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan held the title plate in his hand. He looked at the sculpture of himself on the back side. After appreciating it for a short period of time, he threw the title plate to Qin Yu. “Liu Xing, take it.” Qin Yu immediately caught it.“It is very easy to use this passage title plate. You merely have to bring it to the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple and then pour Gold Force into the passage title plate; the title plate itself will then naturally emit a ray of energy into the seal on the Bewitching God Temple. When that happens, the seal will disappear for a short moment. At that time, you should use that opportunity to enter the Bewitching God Temple. When leaving, the method is the same. You’ll have to pour in Gold Power and it’ll start the energy within the passage title plate.” Explained the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan attentively.The Black Flame Lord Wu Shan laughed. “Liu Xing, you’d best not randomly go and pour in Gold Force and enter the Bewitching God Temple because you’re bored. The amount of energy contained within this title plate is not a lot. I suspect it’ll only allow you to use it three or four times. If you were to use all of the energy contained within it, then you won’t be able to open the seal to the Bewitching God Temple anymore.”“I understand.”Qin Yu grabbed the title plate in his hand. His mood was extremely good.He was able to clearly sense the energy within this title plate. The aura of the energy was the same as the aura of the seal. Merely, the amount of energy within the title plate was not much to begin with and would likely only work for a couple times.“Liu Xing, this time, the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord have specially come over to help you out. I already had people prepare a banquet. You must properly entertain the two of them.” The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan said to Qin Yu.Qin Yu nodded. “Of course.”Having obtained the passage title plate, Qin Yu enthusiastically entertained the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord. By the time the second day came, Qin Yu proceeded to leave for the Bewitching God Temple by himself.Having comprehended things for three thousand years, Qin Yu’s Golden Soul Pellet was already at a level where even ordinary Deities fall short.Adding on the Meteoric Tear, a single Greater Teleportation from Qin Yu was sufficient to cross over an entire star field. With the speed of Qin Yu’s Greater Teleportation…in merely a short period of time, Qin Yu had arrived on the closest galaxy to the Bewitching God Temple. On this galaxy, Qin Yu did not dare to use Greater Teleportation anymore. Instead, he used the Interstellar Conveying Array to reach the Dragon Arrow Star.On the Dragon Arrow Star.“Your Lordship, you’ve come again?” That personnel in charge of the Interstellar Conveying Array was unable to refrain his shock. Qin Yu had come once not long ago.“That’s right, I’ve come again.” Said Qin Yu while beaming with smiles. His current mood was great.Qin Yu then turned into a ray of light and was shot toward the Cosmic Space. Qin Yu started to fly toward the Bewitching God Temple rapidly… however, no matter how fast he flew, it was still much inferior to teleportation. For a distance less than half a galaxy, Qin Yu had spent a long time flying through it.By the entrance to the Bewitching God Temple.Elder Lian Fan was still sitting cross-legged in front of the entrance. Guarding the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple could be considered as a boring job. However, as Elder Lian Fan was calmly training, time also passed by quickly for him.The scene of that expert called Liu Xing attacking the seal a couple days ago, would be occasionally remembered by Elder Lian Fan. He gasped in his heart. “Lord Liu Xing is truly amazing.”“Lian Fan.” A familiar voice sounded.Elder Lian Fan immediately opened his eyes. Upon seeing the person who have arrived, he immediately said respectfully. “Lian Fan pays his respects to Lord Liu Xing. May I know what business Lord Liu Xing might have… could it be, Your Lordship is going to break the seal?”Qin Yu flipped his hand around and took out the passage title plate. “This time around, I’ve brought the passage title plate with me.”Upon seeing the passage title plate, Elder Lian Fan gasped in his heart. ‘He is indeed a super expert. He was actually able to make the Three Great Sovereigns break the rules and personally make him a passage title plate.’“Lord Liu Xing, congratulations on obtaining the passage title plate.” Lian Fan said promptly.“Move aside first.” Said Qin Yu with a light smile.“Yes.” Lian Fan moved aside. He then looked to Qin Yu. To see someone enter the Bewitching God Temple… that too was a difficult scene to come by.The passage title plate started to float in front of Qin Yu. Qin Yu pointed at it with his hand. A Gold Force energy was poured into the passage title plate. Immediately, the passage title plate started to vibrate.“Chi…”A three colored light was shot out from the passage title plate. It shot toward the seal on the Bewitching God Temple’s entrance.The seal that merely jolted under the all out attack from Qin Yu, after being shot by the three colored light, actually opened like curtains being pulled apart. The energy of the seal pulled apart to two sides. The tunnel to the Bewitching God Temple was exposed.Qin Yu retrieved the passage title plate. His figure turned into a ray of light and he immediately rushed into it.After a short moment, the seal started to slowly close again.The black speck-like matter was over ten meters thick. After passing through the tunnel, Qin Yu saw the external region of the Bewitching God Temple!Seeing it with his eyes….Fog covered his view. The entire external region of the Bewitching God Temple seemed to be enveloped by a layer of fog. When Qin Yu flew forward a couple more steps, he discovered that landslides, earthquakes, volcano eruptions and so on would occasionally appear within the fog…“It would appear that this is the illusion barrier of the external region of the Bewitching God Temple.” Qin Yu knew quite a bit regarding the Bewitching God Temple.The external region of the Bewitching God Temple was covered in a Divine Barrier. To be more accurate, it was covered in a Divine Realm’s Illusion Barrier. The area that the barrier covered was extremely vast. It’s area was comparable to a hundred ordinary stars. This had also caused the Illusion Barrier’s power to not be very powerful.The most important thing was… this Illusion Barrier did not possess the power to kill someone. It merely possessed the ability to trap someone.However, if one were to be trapped in this Illusion Barrier for hundreds of millions of years, then it would also be very difficult to bear.Ordinary, when people enter into the Bewitching God Temple, they would only go about this external region covered by the Illusion Barrier. That was because the area this barrier covered was truly too great. Thus, its strength was not large. As long as one does not enter the depths of the Bewitching God Temple and only move about the fringe, then by relying on one’s Soul’s Power, one would still be able to exit the Bewitching God Temple.“Let’s see, with my soul’s level, how far in will I be able to go?” Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness immediately started to permeate into the Illusion Barrier. Qin Yu was able to clearly sense that the moment his Divine Awareness entered the Illusion Barrier, he felt as if his Divine Awareness had sunk into a quagmire. It was very hard for him to continue to spread it forward.After a short moment.“This is my limit. Not even a millionth of the distance that the Illusion Barrier covers.” Qin Yu clearly sensed that… there were three Divine Artifacts floating in the areas where his Divine Awareness spreaded out to.Qin Yu flipped his hand and took out the Bewitching God Painting.A misty radiance was shining in the surroundings of the Bewitching God Painting. Qin Yu muttered out loud. “Illusion Barrier? I have no time to waste on that.” A part of Qin Yu’s awareness entered into the Bewitching God Painting. The route to the Inner Palace of the Bewitching God Temple appeared in his mind. Merely, this route was changing unceasingly.Qin Yu took a step. He had instantly entered into the foggy land covered by the Illusion Barrier.With the routes pointed out by the Bewitching God Painting, Qin Yu had been turning left and right unceasingly. He had even turned back…. However, Qin Yu knew that this was the closest route. After six hours, Qin Yu had managed to travel half the distance.Within this half distance that he had traveled, Qin Yu had already collected thirty six Divine Artifacts.Some of the time, he merely needed to turn back and spend some time in order to pick up a Divine Artifact. However, Qin Yu was disinclined to even turn back to pick them up. That was because he knew… if he wanted to obtain it, it’d be extremely easy.“When Ni Yang entered the Bewitching God Temple with the Bewitching God Painting for the first time, he had surprisingly only obtained more than a dozen or so Divine Artifacts. His soul’s level was too weak, much too weak.” Qin Yu sighed in his heart.Qin Yu continued onward with a fast speed. His Divine Awareness had covered a wide area around him.Ni Yang, when he entered the Bewitching God Temple for the first time, the distance his Soul’s Power covered was less than a thousandth of what Qin Yu currently covered. Thus, how could he possibly be able to compare with Qin Yu?
Chapter 455 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 28 – The Inner Palace of the Bewitching God TempleTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin“Might as well leave behind a bit more Divine Artifacts for the people who’ll come here in the future.” Qin Yu thought in his heart. If he were to collect the Divine Artifacts unceasingly and take all of them, then the people in the future would not be able to find any more Divine Artifacts.Qin Yu immediately sped up. His figure turned into a blur.The remaining route was even more complicated and winding. After spending eight more hours, Qin Yu finally passed through the entire region covered by the Illusion Barrier. There were now a total of forty six extra Divine Artifacts in the Jiang Lan’s Realm.There had been a couple Divine Artifacts in front of Qin Yu at locations where he could see them. However, he did not bother to take them. Qin Yu did not want to take too many Divine Artifacts. Forty six Divine Artifacts were not a lot to the external region of the Bewitching God Temple.After passing through the fog-filled Illusion Barrier region, the place in front of him suddenly grew clear.At roughly a distance of ten miles away from Qin Yu, was a purple colored floating building. This purple colored floating building was formed by four palaces. The four palaces were respectively located on the east, west, south and north. They were all connected to each other through their walls. It was much like a…. four sided courtyard manor.Four interconnected palaces were floating in the sky.“This ought to be the main body of the Bewitching God Temple. Never had I expected that the Bewitching God Temple was constructed through four interconnected palaces.” Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness immediately covered the four palaces of the Bewitching God Temple.The volume of the Bewitching God Temple was not huge.The length of those four palaces was merely several hundred meters. The entire true body of the Bewitching God Temple was much smaller than the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. However, Qin Yu knew that this Bewitching God Temple was extremely extraordinary. That was because his Divine Awareness could only cover the external shell of the Bewitching God Temple and was unable to penetrate into it at all.“There is only a single entrance. I reckon that Immortal Emperor Ni Yang had entered through that entrance, got careless, stepped onto the poisonous insect and lost his life.” Qin Yu started flying toward the entrance.The four sided courtyard manor shaped Bewitching God Temple only had a single entrance.When Qin Yu flew to the side of the entrance, Qin Yu already started to be on guard. The death of Immortal Emperor Ni Yang was already a warning to him. Thus, how would Qin Yu dare to loosen his guard?“What a luxurious entrance door. I reckon that not even a High Quality Divine Artifact would be able to leave a mark on it.” Qin Yu looked to the main gate of the Bewitching God Temple…a granite like dark blue colored entrance door.At this moment, the entrance door was wide open. Qin Yu carefully looked to his feet. He then stepped into the entrance.For some unknown reason, Divine Awareness was inhibited within the Bewitching God Temple. Through great effort, Qin Yu was only able to cover a region several meters around his body with his Divine Awareness. What Qin Yu didn’t know was that… when Immortal Emperor Ni Yang entered the Bewitching God Temple back then, his Immortal Awareness was unable to even cover anywhere past his body.Before Qin Yu entered, his Divine Awareness and eyes had carefully surveyed the place. However… the Divine Awareness and eyesight were both something that would deceive oneself. When Qin Yu stepped into the Bewitching God Temple, he had discovered that everything had changed.“This, this is the same Bewitching God Temple that I surveyed earlier?” Qin Yu looked to everything in front of him in shock.The Bewitching God Temple was divided into four palaces. According to the observations Qin Yu did on the outside, the four palaces were all only ten meter or so tall. However, upon entering, he discovered that the peak of the palace was over a hundred meters tall. Qin Yu took a glance at his surroundings.“Heavens, exactly how big is this Bewitching God Temple? When I observed it from the outside, its length was merely several hundred meters. However now, I was actually unable to see the end from here.” Qin Yu was a bit astonished. Toward the unknown, Qin Yu didn’t dare to act blindly without thinking.Mind voice transmission.“Wu Lan, I’ve entered the interior of the Bewitching God Temple.” Qin Yu directly sent a voice transmission to Wu Lan inside the Jiang Lan’s Realm. The knowledge Wu Lan possessed of the Bewitching God Temple was something that Qin Yu cannot compare with.Wu Lan stopped his training.“Interior of the Bewitching God Temple? You’ve already reached there? Good. Are you in the Front Palace?” Wu Lan asked.“Front Palace? I do not know the names of these four palaces of the Bewitching God Temple. However, I’ve just recently entered the Bewitching God Temple. Merely, upon entering, I’ve discovered that the inside is much larger than when I was surveying it from the outside. Thus, I didn’t dare to act blindly without thinking.” Said Qin Yu via voice transmission.Wu Lan immediately laughed and respond back with a voice transmission. “The four palaces of the Bewitching God Temple are respectively the Front Palace, Transfer Palace, Artifacts Palace and the Refinement Flame Palace.”As Wu Lan had lived in the Bewitching God Temple before, he was still quite knowledgeable about the Bewitching God Temple.“The palace that you have currently entered is precisely the ‘Front Palace.’ Once you exit the Front Palace, you’ll enter the courtyard located in the middle. Mn… once you’ve reached there, I’ll tell you more about it.”Qin Yu did not care about the other couple palaces. He immediately asked. “Why is the Front Palace much larger than when I observed it from the outside?”Wu Lan said via Mind Voice Transmission. “The master of the Bewitching God Temple was an extremely extraordinary person. When I was in the Divine Realm, I was merely a person of low status. Although I am not very certain about the identity and strength of the master of the Bewitching God Temple, I know a bit… I know that the master of the Bewitching God Temple is very powerful and that his Bewitching God Temple was also very peculiar. The space inside it is actually extraordinarily large. It is over ten thousand times larger than how it seems from the outside.”“To be able to descend to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm from the Divine Realm, how could he be an average person?” Thought Qin Yu in his heart. Qin Yu was able to guess that descending from the Divine Realm to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was something that no ordinary Divine Realm expert would be able to accomplish.“What must I pay attention to when I travel about the Bewitching God Temple?” Qin Yu asked.Wu Lan said via voice transmission. “There are not many barriers in the Bewitching God Temple. You can walk freely. However, there are many rooms in the Front Palace. When you enter those rooms, it’s best for you to rely on the Bewitching God Painting. Otherwise, it is very easy for you to be lost within those rooms.”“Lost within those rooms?” Qin Yu was startled.At the same time, Qin Yu swept his gaze around. Located in the center of the Front Palace was a large main hall. There were three winding corridors connected to the main hall. He was unable to see the road that leads to the courtyard at all.On the two sides of these winding corridors were some rooms. He would be lost within those rooms?“Qin Yu, do not be careless. Because there are not many precious things in the corridors of the main hall, there were no barriers in those places. However, there are precious things located in each room. Thus, you must be careful.” Wu Lan advised.Qin Yu eyes flared with determination.There are precious things inside the rooms? Qin Yu was immediately delighted.Firstly, Qin Yu carefully surveyed the main hall. There are red wooden chairs in the main hall. There are also some hanging ornaments on the wall. It appeared to have a very natural feeling.Qin Yu walked to a red wooden chair. He grabbed onto this chair with one hand and tried to crush it with his strength.“What a strong wood. Merely this red wooden chair, it’s toughness was comparable to that of a High Quality Divine Artifact.” Qin Yu discovered that the chair had only trembled a bit after he used all his strength.“Why didn’t Immortal Emperor Ni Yang take these chairs? The materials that these chairs are made of are extremely amazing.” Qin Yu was a bit puzzled. He didn’t know at all… that Immortal Emperor Ni Yang from back then merely wanted to enter those rooms to find treasures and didn’t care at all about these regular looking chairs.Qin Yu looked around this main hall. “Mn, I’ll carefully inspect it again after I return. Let’s go check out those rooms first.” Qin Yu chose a winding corridor and walked down it.The external part of the palace was made of purple colored stones. However, when one went inside, one would notice that the interior part was made out of bluestones.Qin Yu walked to the first room. Everything that the Bewitching God Painting displayed had appeared in his mind.After pushing open the door, Qin Yu was unable to see what was inside the room with his eyes at all. After spreading out his Divine Awareness to a distance of ten meters, he managed to barely discover the road created through bluestone planks.That’s right. There’s actually a bluestone plank road inside the room.Qin Yu stepped into the room.The scenery immediately changed. What had been foggy the entire time had suddenly changed. He had walked into a very peaceful courtyard. The bluestones paved a road. There were even some stone benches in the courtyard.However, what caught Qin Yu’s attention the most from this courtyard were the numerous prisoner cages.There was a Demon Beast within each cage. These Demon Beasts were fantastic oddities of every descriptions. However, each of the Demon Beasts were in their true forms. There were bugs, birds, beasts, and all kinds of other strange Demon Beasts.There was also a stele in front of every cage.“House pet ‘Sharpwing.’ Originated from the Dinosaur Realm. True form is that of a Sharpwinged Dinosaur.” Qin Yu looked to the cage in front of him. Inside this cage was a bird-like animal that’s only half a man tall. Merely, Qin Yu was certain that he had never seen such a species in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm before.Qin Yu looked to the other places.“House pet ‘Whitehair.’ Originated from the Greenmatter Realm. True form is that of a Cosmic Monster, ‘White Hair.’”“House pet ‘Ninebeasts.’ Originated from the Illusion Light Realm. True form is that of a Illusion Magic Beast.”“House pet ‘Fiveclaws.’ Originated from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. True form is that of a ‘Five Clawed Gold Dragon.’”The numerous steles. The numerous cages. They were placed around the courtyard in picturesque disorder. All of the Demon Beast in the cages were in their true forms.Qin Yu’s mind was blank. Only after a long time did he manage to react.“What, what is this? House pet courtyard?” Qin Yu was a bit stupefied. He had never expected for there to be a courtyard in the room, much less all these prisoner cages.“Wu Lan, I’ve entered a house pet room. What’s happening?” Qin Yu directly sent Wu Lan a voice transmission.Only after a long time did Wu Lan respond back. “House pet room? Qin Yu, are there a lot of cages with Demonic Beasts in the room that you’ve entered?”“That’s right, what exactly is going on?” Qin Yu felt that his breathing had become somewhat hard.Wu Lan said via Mind Voice Transmission. “That was where Ye Qu and I were from before. Back then, Ye Qu and I were also considered to be pets by the master of the Bewitching God Temple and placed there.”Qin Yu was stunned speechless. However, he was able to sense the pain contained within Wu Lan’s voice.“The master of the Bewitching God Temple was fond of raising pets. He was fond of raising exotic pets from exotic places. I remember… that there were a lot of people from the Divine Realm that came to the master of the Bewitching God Temple and gifted him exotic pets in order to ask for his help. As for me, I was captured by an expert in the Divine Realm and then gifted to the master of the Bewitching God Temple.” Said Wu Lan after a long sigh.Qin Yu suddenly understood everything.“When the master of the Bewitching God Temple grew bored, he would usually grab a pet cage and play with it. These pets, each and every one of them were extremely rare. Many of them are from other cosmic spaces. Even in other cosmic spaces, these pets were also extremely rare.” Wu Lan sighed.Qin Yu understood it. That was because he saw one of the pet. It was a Super Divine Beast of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, the Five Clawed Golden Dragon.“When Immortal Emperor Ni Yang entered this room back then, he had only released Ye Qu and I. However, with his strength, it was impossible for him to bring any more with him.” Wu Lan sighed. “Qin Yu, if you are capable of doing it, I hope that you’ll be able to restore the liberty to these Demon Beasts.”After a moment, Qin Yu muttered. “Okay.”According to the safe path pointed out by the Bewitching God Painting, only the bluestone path in the middle was safe. All the other paths, the paths that are near those cages, were changing unceasingly. Carefully, Qin Yu continued to walk closer.“Absorb.” With an intention, Qin Yu directly absorbed a cage into his Jiang Lan’s Realm.Like so, Qin Yu absorbed over eighty cages at once. All of the Demon Beasts in the cages possessed pretty decent strength. However, none of them have reached the level of Deity. The majority of them were Demon Emperor level. There were even some that were at the Demon King level.“I’ll go and open those cages after I finish checking out the Bewitching God Temple.” For the time being, Qin Yu had merely absorbed all of the cages. At the same time, he remembered all the information written on those eighty some steles with his Divine Awareness. Afterwards, Qin Yu left this ‘house pet’ room.The master of the Bewitching God Temple knew how to enjoy life very well.While there was a house pet room, there was also a vegetation room. The vegetation room was an enormous garden. Inside the garden were all kinds of rare and priceless vegetations. Qin Yu had also grown to like some of those vegetations in the room.After exiting the vegetation room, Qin Yu randomly picked a room and entered it. There were no illusions in this room. It still had the appearance of a room. However, unexpectedly, none of the things in this room could be touched.There were dragons formed by stones, people formed by wood and so on. Essentially, the room was covered with carving art works formed through natural things. Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from exclaiming in admiration. Beside each of the art works were detailed notes. Each one of the art works was created through natural things. Clearly, these things were also extremely precious in the Divine Realm.Merely, things of such a high quality, was something that only high class people in the Divine Realm would be able to afford.Qin Yu knew that once he reached the Divine Realm, these things would definitely be useful.However, when Qin Yu tried to absorb them with his Jiang Lan’s Realm, he discovered that these art works and carvings seemed to be protected by a kind of barrier. Even the Jiang Lan’s Realm was unable to absorb them. Finally, he had no choice but to helplessly leave the room.“How come that wood from earlier looked exactly like jasper? Is it really wood? Could it be that the notes left by the master of the Bewitching God Temple were incorrect?” Qin Yu was still thinking about the adorable rabbit formed by a jasper-like wood.Having returned back to the corridor, Qin Yu looked to the three remaining rooms in the corridor.“Which one should I enter?” Qin Yu spreaded out his Divine Awareness. Within this Bewitching God Temple, Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness was only able to cover an area of ten meters.“Mn, I’ll enter that one.” Qin Yu picked a room and proceeded to walk toward it. However, after walking two steps, Qin Yu suddenly stopped.Qin Yu’s gaze suddenly turned to a carving on the wall of the corridor.“Something’s wrong.” Qin Yu carefully inspected that carving with his Divine Awareness. With Qin Yu’s current comprehension toward the spatial laws, he was able to sense that the space where the carving was located at was somewhat unusual. It was as if the space… was folding there.With a flip of his hand, Qin Yu took out a long sword-shaped Divine Artifact. Using that Divine Sword, Qin Yu tried to touch that carving.Right when the tip of the Divine Sword touched that carving, the space suddenly started turning around. At the same time….“Gaga~~~~” A sound echoed. The walls on one side of the corridor started to slowly ascend upwards. A short moment later, a door appeared. So it turns out that there was actually a hidden door here.At this moment, a path had also appeared on Qin Yu’s Bewitching God Painting. Holding his breath, Qin Yu took a step forward and passed through the door. Once he entered the room, the scenery suddenly changed. Qin Yu who was already shocked was actually pretty calm.“Rumble~~~” An enormous rumble sounded.“Waterfall?” Qin Yu was unable to refrain his shock as he looked at the scene in front of him. A several thousand foot tall waterfall was rumbling down into the enormous pool in front of him and creating countless splashes.[TL: feet → zhang → chinese feet.]

Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 29 – The Message Left By the Master of the Bewitching God TempleTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThis was a beautiful valley. It was the intoxication of a beautiful spring day. The water of that several thousand foot tall and close to a hundred foot wide waterfall, was falling from high above. If was as if there was a curtain of white pearls hanging down from the sky. Under the sunshine, the waterfall’s splashes appeared like pearls as they radiated a touching luster.Qin Yu was standing in front of this pond of water.The waterfall was falling unceasingly. Behind the waterfall was a steep and extremely straight rock wall.“There’s actually no danger here at all.” Qin Yu was shocked to discover that the Bewitching God Painting displayed that all of the routes were safe. Evidently… there was no danger whatsoever in this valley.Qin Yu carefully looked everywhere. There were flowers and plants filled with vitality, clear lake water, a warm breeze… everything had signified that there was nothing special here. However, why then did the master of the Bewitching God Temple hide this room?“Wu Lan, I’ve entered a hidden room. I opened it by chance. However now, I am unable to find anything special about this room.” Qin Yu once again sent a Mind Voice Transmission and asked Wu Lan.With Wu Lan here, if Qin Yu didn’t ask him and instead let his imagination run wild, then he’d truly be an idiot.Ever since the first time Qin Yu asked Wu Lan about the Bewitching God Temple after entering it, Wu Lan had stopped his training. He knew that Qin Yu might ask him again at any moment. Hearing Qin Yu’s question, Wu Lan pondered for a moment. He then said via Mind Voice Transmission.“Qin Yu, I had never seen any hidden room like the one you spoke of, while I was still living in the Bewitching God Temple. However, according to my understanding of the master of the Bewitching God Temple, he is not a senseless person. As he has concealed the room, there must definitely be an important reason for him to do so. Oh, that’s right, what does the Bewitching God Painting show?”“Nothing, the Bewitching God Painting shows that everything here is safe.” Qin Yu replied. He was still carefully inspecting everything with his eyes. At the same time, he had slowly spread out his Divine Awareness.“The Bewitching God Painting actually displayed that everything’s safe. Qin Yu, you should explore the area carefully. You must also carefully examine even the things that are unremarkable. You might even be able to obtain a pleasant surprise.” Said Wu Lan while smiling.Qin Yu nodded.Qin Yu walked forward slowly. He was looking through his surroundings. His Divine Awareness was also carefully inspecting everything in this valley.“Mn?” Qin Yu’s moving gaze suddenly locked on to a location… the waterfall! To be more exact, it was the mountain wall behind the waterfall. The mountain wall was yellow but Qin Yu clearly saw that there was a cyan colored wall behind the waterfall!With how accurate Qin Yu’s sight was, he instantly determined that there was a cave behind the waterfall!“There’s actually a cave behind the waterfall. Had I not carefully inspected my surroundings, then I suspect I wouldn’t have been able to spot the cave when it showed up for an instant.” With a step, Qin Yu’s body flickered and shot toward that waterfall.After passing through the waterfall, Qin Yu sensed that the scene in front of him had changed.Refreshing. This was the first sensation Qin Yu felt when he entered the cave. The entrance to the cave was about four meters wide. After merely walking three or four steps, Qin Yu had entered the cave dwelling. The arrangement of the cave dwelling was extremely relaxed and natural.A ancient dark black colored wooden table was in the middle of this cave. Beside the table was a chair.There were some swaying hammocks in the cave too. It was likely that when the master of the Bewitching God Temple grew bored, he would rest on those hammocks. There was even a bend of creek water in the cave.Crawling mountain plants were on one wall of the cave. The other wall of the cave was covered in a scarlet red color. It was like a red-heated boiler. There was unexpectedly a row of words on that scarlet colored wall.“To have come to my cave dwelling, it seems fate has brought us together. The things that I left behind in the Bewitching God Temple, you can have however many you’ll be able to obtain. I am not afraid that you’ll take too much, all I’m afraid of is that you won’t be able to take them with you…Written by Che Hou.”“Che Hou?” Qin Yu was slightly startled. “Che Hou seems to be a name. Chehou is also a family name. Is the master of the Bewitching God Temple called Che Hou or is his family name Chehou?”Back in the Hidden Dragon Continent, Qin Yu had indeed came across the surname Chehou. Although it was very rare, but there were still people with that surname. However… it was hard to tell whether or not there are people with this surname in the Divine Realm.[TL: Hidden Dragon Continent = Qianlong Continent]“Was this row of words written using his fingers? His calligraphy is actually pretty good.” Qin Yu walked to this scarlet colored mountain wall. However, on the bottom of the scarlet wall was a stream of water. Qin Yu was unable to get very close to the wall.After being separated by a the stream of water, Qin Yu stood merely a few meters away from the wall. Using his Divine Awareness, Qin Yu carefully inspected this row of words. Qin Yu knew that he cannot let anything slip by in here.“I do not believe that this hidden room’s purpose is only to leave a series of words for me.” Qin Yu carefully inspected the words with his Divine Awareness. Not only the words, Qin Yu was also carefully inspecting the scarlet wall. After inspecting for a long time…The expression on Qin Yu’s face started to change. Initially, he had a confused appearance. However, slowly… he displayed a pleasantly surprised expression.That scarlet wall was slowly trembling at an almost invisible speed. Space ripples were passing through and forth the surface of the wall.“So it’s like this.” Qin Yu took out a Divine Sword. He held it in one of his hands and then suddenly jumped. The Divine Sword started to draw on the wall. A flamboyant carving. Soon after, a word appeared on the wall.“Yuan!”This Yuan that Qin Yu wrote covered almost the entire wall.“Buzz!” The space inside the cave started to vibrate. Suddenly, the entire space appeared to have been immersed in a layer of gold color. A dazzling white light shot out from the Yuan that Qin Yu carved.The white light that shot out suddenly turned into a person.This person was very handsome. Merely, the hair on his temples was already white. He appeared to be forty years old. However, his handsome face appeared to be only twenty or thirty years old. His gaze was extremely deep and serene. An indifferent expression was on his face the entire time. It seemed that nothing could change his expression.“Hello, I am called Chehou Yuan.” Said the man with white hair on his temples.“Chehou Yuan, so he’s actually called Chehou Yuan.” Qin Yu came to an understanding. However, Qin Yu had a feeling… that this man in front of him ought to be an image that was left behind and not a part of the Bewitching God Temple.Chehou Yuan continued. “This is an image I left behind. For you to be able to discover the barrier I left behind, signifies that your soul’s level is pretty decent and could be comparable to pretty powerful Deities. For there to be an expert like you in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, it is truly surprising.”Qin Yu was confused. If someone from the Divine Realm were to descend to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, wouldn’t they be able to enter here just like he did?“Although I, Chehou Yuan, do not possess great strength, this Bewitching God Temple of mine possessed a barrier effect toward those from the Divine Realm…. Even if a Godking wanted to enter it, he’d have to spend a large amount of energy. Furthermore, if the Bewitching God Temple were to encounter some of the Godking level expert intruding upon it, it would also self destruct.” Said Chehou Yuan indifferently.Qin Yu was excited.Although he did not know how strong the level ‘Godking’ was, for them to be able to become ‘Kings of Deities,’ they were most definitely extraordinary.“Since you’ve found this location and also opened the image I left behind, you shall become the sole person with the opportunity to obtain the greatest treasure of my Bewitching God Temple. Of course… as to whether or not you’ll obtain it, will depend on your luck as well as your ability.” Chehou Yuan continued.Merely by listening to Chehou Yuan’s words, Qin Yu had already had a favorable impression towards him.Although there was no smile on Chehou Yuan’s face, his speech gave off an amiable sensation.“For you to be able to come here, you could also be considered a genius in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Now then, before everything else, let me introduce the Divine Realm to you.” Chehou Yuan continued. Qin Yu instead grew puzzled.For what purpose did this Chehou Yuan leave behind a hidden room and this image?Merely, the curiosity Qin Yu had for the Divine Realm had caused him to continue paying close attention and listen. After all, Wu Lan was merely a low level character in the Divine Realm and didn’t even know a lot of the fundamental stuff about the Divine Realm.“Divine Realm is a Cosmic Space of an even higher level than your Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. If my guess is correct… the Divine Realm ought to be the peak of all Cosmic Spaces!”Chehou Yuan said slowly. “The Divine Realm contains within it ‘Divine Spiritual Energy’ and gives off an extremely strong oppression toward those who ascend to it. Usually, the Deities that have just ascended, upon entering the Divine Realm, would be oppressed by the Divine Spiritual Energy to a level where they would barely be able to walk.”Qin Yu was startled.This Divine Realm was truly a bit too astonishing. This Divine Realm was much stronger than the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Even Deities that have just ascended to the Divine Realm would barely be able to walk.“The experts of the Divine Realm, to put it simply, are separated into Two Great Stages. The first stage is the Deity Stage. The second stage is the Heavenly Deity Stage! The Deity Stage was separated into Low Level Deity, Mid Level Deity and High Level Deity. Above that are the Low Level Heavenly Deity, Mid Level Heavenly Deity and High Level Heavenly Deity!” Upon reaching this part of his speech, Chehou Yuan slightly stopped. It was as if he knew that this information would stun Qin Yu.Qin Yu was indeed somewhat shocked.“So the Divine Realm’s experts are actually separated into different levels like this!” Qin Yu had a relaxed sensation. The most frightening thing was the unknown. In the past, he didn’t know anything regarding the Divine Realm. However now, he finally knew that the people in the Divine Realm were primarily separated into the Deities and Heavenly Deities.“The soul of Deities is the ‘Golden Soul Pellet’ stage whereas the soul of Heavenly Deities is the ‘Embryo Soul’ stage. At the same time… the energy the Deities use is merely Divine Energy whereas the energy Heavenly Deities use is Heavenly Divine Energy.” Chehou Yuan continued.Qin Yu frowned.From what he had heard, it seems like the gap between Deities and Heavenly Deities was pretty great.Suddenly, Chehou Yuan’s mouth was slightly raised. It was as if he had a feeling of disdain. “In the Divine Realm, although one’s strength and soul is important, but other than those, weapons are also very important.”“Weapons are divided into Low Quality Divine Artifact, Mid Quality Divine Artifact and High Quality Divine Artifact; and above those are the Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, Mid Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact and High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts for a total of six great grades.” A slight confidence suddenly appeared on Chehou Yuan’s face. “Divine Artifacts are usually used by Deities. Divine Artifacts are merely very ordinary weapons. Ordinarily, anyone possessing strength would be able to take one out. Upon pouring one’s Divine Energy into the Divine Weapon, one would be able to exhibit a formidable power. As for Heavenly Divine Artifact, they are generally used by Heavenly Deities… a good Heavenly Divine Weapon was capable of allowing one to skip past levels and kill those above.”“Of course, the power of the weapon is not all there is to it. With a good stratagem, a good method, or a good sneak attack, Deities can still kill Heavenly Deities.” Said Chehou Yuan indifferently.Qin Yu was instead a bit puzzled.Deities were divided into Low Level, Mid Level and High Level. Heavenly Deities were divided into Low Level, Mid Level and High Level. The Heavenly Deities possessed both stronger strength and soul than Deities; so how would a Deity be able to kill a Heavenly Deity?“The reason why Heavenly Deities are powerful, is mostly because of their ability to control the space. Their levels are divided into Low Level Heavenly Deity, Mid Level Heavenly Deity and High Level Heavenly Deity according to their ability to control the space.” Once Chehou Yuan finished these words, Qin Yu suddenly came to a realization.So it turns out that Heavenly Deities were actually ranked like that.“The Deity and Heavenly Deity that I spoke of earlier are only the major levels. I myself am a High Level Heavenly Deity.” Said Chehou Yuan indifferently. Only now did Qin Yu know of the strength of the master of the Bewitching God Temple.The strongest amongst the Heavenly Deities!“Above the High Level Heavenly Deities is another level.” Chehou Yuan continued. “That is the Godking level! Godkings are practically unequalled existences in the Divine Realm. Godkings are people who have completely comprehended the spatial laws!”Qin Yu nodded in his heart.Heavenly Deities experts were differentiated through their comprehension of the spatial laws. However, the Godkings have completely comprehended the spatial laws. Their strength was almost unimaginable.“In the Divine Realm, to a certain degree, the Godkings are the strongest existences. Merely… all of the Divine Realm experts know that there is actually another level above the Godkings! An omnipotent existence that could split the heaven and earth apart…. Exalted Celestial!” Upon reaching this point, Chehou Yuan’s expression had also slightly changed. It seemed as if he grew a bit excited.Qin Yu felt that his heartbeat had suddenly stopped.Exalted Celestial?Merely the title of Exalted Celestial had already gave Qin Yu an oppressive sensation.“After completely comprehending the spatial laws, one will become a Godking! Although there are only so many Godking level experts in the Divine Realm, those Godking level experts still seek a higher level. They seek to comprehend and control an even higher law… the temporal laws! Upon completely comprehending the temporal laws and the temporal laws, one would become a Exalted Celestial.”Chehou Yuan gasped. “Legends say, that Exalted Celestials are able to split the heaven and earth apart and bring about the apocalypse. Even if their soul were to be destroyed, as long as their True Spirit remained, the Exalted Celestials are able to come back from the dead. This is the power of Exalted Celestials; the absolutely unequalled, absolutely supreme power!”Qin Yu felt as if he was unable to breathe.Merely this Chehou Yuan had already given him an incomparably oppressive sensation. However, the Godkings were even stronger. To have completely comprehended the spatial laws, just thinking about it was already scary. Yet, above it… was the Exalted Celestial.Exalted Celestial! In front of an Exalted Celestial, everyone was just powerless ants. With a wave of his hand, the entire world would crumble!“Even with my status in the Divine Realm, I have still only seen extremely exceptional Godkings. As for Exalted Celestials… I was lucky to have a chat with a Exalted Celestial. However unfortunately, I was unable to see this Exalted Celestial’s face the entire time.” Sighed Chehou Yuan.Qin Yu had a speculation in his heart.This Chehou Yuan ought to not be an ordinary High Level Heavenly Deity. According to what he had said, Exalted Celestials are practically people of legends in the Divine Realm. However, Chehou Yuan was actually able to have chat with a Exalted Celestial. Even though they have not met, it was still a shocking thing.“I have told you all this to allow you to have a rough understanding of the expert levels in the Divine Realm. Actually, in the Divine Realm, as long as you can reach the Heavenly Deity level and not offend anyone, you’ll be able to walk with your head up. After all… the Divine Realm is extremely boundless and there are only that many Godkings. With their status being that high, Godkings would not randomly come and handle a nobody like you.” Said Chehou Yuan indifferently.Qin Yu understood very well about what Chehou Yuan’s intention was.It was likely that it would be extremely hard for him to meet a Godking, much less a Exalted Celestial.
Chapter 457 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 30 – A SpearTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinChehou Yuan paused for a moment before slowly continuing. “Junior, having heard all that I’ve said, I suspect your heart has also grown excited. However, you’d best not have excessive expectations.”“That is because it is truly extremely difficult to increase one’s comprehension of the spatial laws!” Chehou Yuan took a deep sigh. “Usually, when one ascends to the Divine Realm, one will require tens of millions of years or even hundreds of millions of years in order to grow from Low Level Deity to a High Level Deity.”Qin Yu nodded in his heart.Zuo Qiumei had left behind the Meteoric Tear and the comprehension of the spatial laws for him, but even with that advantage… after spending three thousands years comprehending those spatial laws, his soul was still only at the Golden Soul Pellet stage.Clearly, Qin Yu’s comprehension of the spatial laws was inferior to even the Low Level Heavenly Deities.After all, when one’s soul reaches the Low Level Heavenly Deity level, it will turn into an Embryo Soul. Qin Yu had spent three thousand years but regular Deities might not even attain his accomplishment even after spending thirty million years.Reaching the level of Low Level Heavenly Deity? That’s difficult.Qin Yu did not have any excessive expectations. He merely wanted to continue walking the path of cultivation, step by step.“Back then, I was a child who was unable to even train in the Internal Techniques and was only able to train in the External Techniques. Yet now, I’ve reached a strength that could move about unhindered in the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm! What then would there be that’s impossible to be accomplished in the world? Although I’m weak now, as long as I continue to try hard and train, I will definitely succeed one day.”Qin Yu was extremely resolute. Toward the endless and limitless path of cultivation, Qin Yu had never once been fearful.“In the Divine Realm, as long as you become a Low Level Heavenly Deity, you’ll be considered an expert. As long as you don’t offend others, no one would go and cause trouble for a Low Level Heavenly Deity.” Chehou Yuan consoled.Qin Yu had a bitter smile.Low Level Heavenly Deity? Qin Yu did not wish to offend others, but with that cousin of Li’er, Zhou Xian, for example, Uncle Lan had said that there are many people in the Divine Realm who wished for Li’er’s hand in marriage. He is someone who needs to defeat that group of people. If he did not have sufficient strength, how would he possibly be able to defeat them?Chehou Yuan had merely left behind an image, so naturally he didn’t know what was going on in Qin Yu’s head.Chehou Yuan grew silent for a long time.“I am an Artifacts Craftsman!”Out of nowhere, Chehou Yuan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said these words.Qin Yu was startled. He then started smiling.Qin Yu had already made some guesses regarding the identity of this Chehou Yuan. Merely by looking at the large amount of scattered Divine Artifacts located outside the Bewitching God Temple, where even High Quality Divine Artifacts were thrown away like garbage, he was able to guess a bit about this Chehou Yuan.Chehou Yuan continued. “Earlier, I mentioned that weapons are separated into Divine Artifacts and Heavenly Divine Artifacts. Usually, High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts are the peak of the refining of artifacts. However, within the Cosmic Space, there is another kind of treasure. It is called the ‘Grandmist Spiritual Treasure!’” Chehou Yuan’s eyes suddenly started shining brightly.[TL: Grandmist Spiritual Treasure → Hong Meng Spiritual Treasure. Ren said to call it Grandmist when I initially thought to call it Great Cheat lol]Grandmist Spiritual Treasure?At this moment, Qin Yu didn’t dare to think about anything else. He had firmly remembered everything that Chehou Yuan said. After all, everthing that Chehou Yuan had said would be helpful to him after he ascends to the Divine Realm.“The Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are separated into Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure and Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. Amongst them, the Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are products of nature. Almost every one of the Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure possessed exceptional remarkable ability. The strongest amongst them was even able to bring about the destruction of the world or revive its user from the dead!” Said Chehou Yuan slowly.[TL: Innate → Xiantian; Acquired → Houtian]“Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure? Products of nature?” Qin Yu was stunned. This boundless Cosmic Space could actually produce spiritual treasures? After all, in all these years, the powerful weapons that Qin Yu knew of were all man made.“When comparing the Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures with Heavenly Divine Artifacts, which one would be stronger?” Qin Yu suddenly started guessing in his heart.Chehou Yuan seemed to know that Qin Yu was puzzled, he said. “The power of Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are very hard to tell. That is because there are second and third-rated Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures as well as first-rate Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. The inferior Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were so weak that they’re inferior to even ordinary Heavenly Divine Artifacts.”Qin Yu understood it now.The Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures only signified that they are products of nature and does not necessarily mean that they would be stronger than Heavenly Divine Artifacts.“However, being the products of nature meant that they would still possess miraculous characteristics. The first-rated Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are so powerful that their strength is beyond reasonable limits. When compared with High Quality Heavenly Divine Weapons, they are much more powerful… as for the Spiritual Treasures that the Exalted Celestials possessed in the legends, it was told that they possessed the power to bring about the destruction of the world. Those Spiritual Treasures are known as Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.” Chehou Yuan’s eyes were blazing.Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasures, the peak amongst the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.“The Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are divided into ‘Innate’ and ‘Acquired.’ I have already explained the Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. As for the Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures… they are those that are refined by man!” Said Chehou Yuan slowly.Upon hearing this, Qin Yu was unable to refrain his shock.Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, although they’re man made, they’re still very powerful.“There is no difference between the might of Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures and Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. They are still separated into third-rated, second-rated and first-rated. The only difference is that one is a product of nature whereas the other is man made. In the entire Divine Realm… there are not many people that are capable of refining Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. However, I, am one of them.” Chehou Yuan had a confident expression on his face.It was a kind of confidence that one came to possess after reaching the peak of comprehension.“As far as I know, the legendary Exalted Celestials are capable of refining Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Amongst the Godkings, there also seems to be one or two that are able of refining Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. As for the Heavenly Deities, only I know how to refine Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures!” Chehou Yuan’s voice was powerful and resounding.Qin Yu’s heart grew slightly excited.If he was to be able to learn the methods of refining ‘Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures,’ then it would likely be helpful to his journey in the Divine Realm.“Do you know why the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are called ‘Grandmist’ Spiritual Treasures?” Chehou Yuan asked. After a short moment, Chehou Yuan spoke of the reason himself. “That is because the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures contain within them Grandmist Spiritual Energy!”Qin Yu grew puzzled. “What is the Grandmist Spiritual Energy?”In Qin Yu’s mind, he knew of the Mortal Realm Worlds’ Spiritual Energy, Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm’s Elemental Spiritual Energy as well as the Divine Realm’s Divine Spiritual Energy that Chehou Yuan had just told him about.However, this Grandmist Spiritual Energy was a complete mystery to Qin Yu.“This ‘Grandmist Spiritual Energy’ is something that every Grandmist Spiritual Treasure possesses. Grandmist Spiritual Energy is something that can be discovered but not sought. Even in the Divine Realm… it is very hard for even Godkings to acquire some Grandmist Spiritual Energy. One can only obtain Grandmist Spiritual Energy by chance if one’s lucky.” Said Chehou Yuan indifferently. “Back when I was in the Divine Realm, I was once asked by a Divine King level expert to help refine a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure for him. He had given me ten parts of Grandmist Spiritual Energy. Usually, I would save three parts Grandmist Spiritual Energy for myself.”Qin Yu snickered in his heart.This Chehou Yuan was truly treacherous.“There are two ways to obtain Grandmist Spiritual Energy. The first method is to try one’s luck and search for it all over the place. The second method is to destroy an old Grandmist Spiritual Treasure and obtain the Grandmist Spiritual Energy within it.”Chehou Yuan shook his head and sighed. “In my entire life, I once refined a first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. However, my greatest desire is still to refine an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.”Qin Yu heart jumped.The target of this Chehou Yuan was truly far-reaching. He wanted to refine the strongest ‘Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.’“When solely comparing one’s ability to refine artifacts, then in the entire Divine Realm, even the Exalted Celestials are inferior to me.” Chehou Yuan suddenly said.“Truly arrogant!” Qin Yu was unable to avoid laughing.“That is because even the legendary Exalted Celestials are only able to refine first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. As for the Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasures, they are all products of nature, the Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. They were not refined by the Exalted Celestials… Although they controlled both the spatial laws and the temporal laws, they were still only able to refine first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Yet I, a mere High Level Heavenly Deity, was also able to refine first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. When comparing the ability to refine Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, one could tell by a single glance who’s better and who’s worse.” Said Chehou Yuan confidently.Upon hearing what Chehou Yuan said, Qin Yu was also unable to refrain from admiring this Chehou Yuan.“Having researched the path of refining artifacts for all these years, I suddenly realized something not long ago… actually, it is not true that the better the material the better the artifact. In order to refine an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure, it is not enough to merely use Grandmist Spiritual Energy and other top notch materials of the Divine Realm. That’s why I decided to come to the Lower Realm.” Chehou Yuan continued. “I have passed through numerous Cosmic Spaces searching for some fantastic materials that would help with my refinement.”“Junior from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, by the time you see this image of mine, I will have long since left the Bewitching God Temple.” Chehou Yuan’s eyes started shining. “That is because not long ago, while I was searching for the materials to use for refinements, I unexpectedly reached a higher level of comprehension. I think I should be able to refine an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.”Qin Yu felt as if his brain had started buzzing.Refine an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure?This Chehou Yuan was that powerful?“Of course, this is merely a possibility. However, as there is a possibility, I will definitely make an all-out effort to make the possibility bear fruit. That’s why I’ve left here. I have to devote my heart and soul into refining that Spiritual Treasure.”After saying all this, an extremely rare smile appeared on Chehou Yuan’s face. “This time around, I do not know whether I’ll be able to succeed. Furthermore, I have a feeling… that the day that I succeed in refining an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure might be the day of my death.”Qin Yu frowned.“You won’t be able to understand this. Your comprehension of the heavenly mysteries should still be very low.” Chehou Yuan said with a disappointed and frustrated tone. “However, even if it will result in my death, I still want to create an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.”Qin Yu was unable to refrain from admiring this Chehou Yuan.This sort of person who was willing to sacrifice his life for his ideals was someone who’s worth being admired.“Junior from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, you have still not ascended to the Divine Realm yet. Even though your soul’s level is very high, I reckon your body’s strength is still not up to much. I suspect… with your current strength, you’re simply unable to enter the Artifacts Palace and Refining Flames Palace, the locations where the true treasures are located.” Chehou Yuan suddenly said.“Senior Chehou Yuan, you might’ve underestimated me.” Qin Yu muttered.“Since you’ve found this place and also saw the image that I left behind, I also cannot let you return empty-handed.” A slight smile appeared on Chehou Yuan’s face. “The Bewitching God Temple has a total of four palaces and a shared courtyard. When you exit the Front Palace and enter into the courtyard, you should be able to see a spear sticking beside the flower terrace.”Qin Yu was overjoyed.It would appear that he was still able to obtain a powerful treasure.Chehou Yuan’s gaze turned fuzzy. “That spear is not a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. It is a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact!”“Not a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure?” Qin Yu felt a bit disappointed. According to what he had heard, the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures seemed to be very powerful.Chehou Yuan continued. “The spear does not contain Grandmist Spiritual Energy, that’s why it’s only a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact! However, that spear was something that I refined through gathering the rare materials of the Divine Realm and spending three entire years. It is the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact that I am most proud of. Although it does not have Grandmist Spiritual Energy within it, when comparing its might, then it surpasses ordinary Grandmist Spiritual Treasures!”No matter how calm Qin Yu might be, he still grew excited.So it turned out that the spear that Chehou Yuan was giving him was actually the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact that he was most proud of.“When you’ve reached the courtyard and see the spear, you merely need to write ‘Yuan’ on the shaft of the spear to break the barrier placed on it. The spear would then be yours to keep.” Said Chehou Yuan.Qin Yu firmly remembered it.“Well then, you can leave this room now.” Said Chehou Yuan indifferently. Following that, his figure started to slowly disappear.“Senior Chehou Yuan, thank you.” Qin Yu gave a proper bow.Although he knew that what stood in front of him was an image and not the real person, Qin Yu still grew to admire a genius like Chehou Yuan and his determination to create an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure even with the risk of him losing his life.Qin Yu exited the cave. He flew past the waterfall and left the room.“Gaga~~~” Right after Qin Yu left the room, the wall of the corridor once again descended back down. The room was once again hidden.This time around, Qin Yu did not explore all the rooms one by one. That was because he came to know from Chehou Yuan’s words, that even if there were treasures in these rooms, they would still not amount to much. The true treasure was that High Quality Heavenly Divine Spear that Chehou Yuan prided himself in.After coming out from the corridor, Qin Yu entered another corridor. After reaching the end of this corridor, Qin Yu saw a tunnel.That tunnel leads precisely to the courtyard.“I’m about to reach the High Quality Heavenly Divine Spear now. I’d best not be too careless and end up like Immortal Emperor Ni Yang.” Qin Yu laughed at himself. He spread out his Divine Awareness to completely cover the area ten meters surrounding him. Actually, even if Qin Yu were to be poisoned by that Divine Realm’s poisonous bug’s poison, he would still not end up like Immortal Emperor Ni Yang.Back then, Immortal Emperor Ni Yang’s soul’s level was merely that of a level eight Immortal Emperor. Qin Yu, on the other hand, had already condensed his soul into a Golden Soul Pellet. His soul was even stronger than ordinary Deities. Furthermore, Qin Yu also possessed… the Meteoric Tear.Having exited the tunnel, Qin Yu finally entered into the courtyard.This courtyard was very spacious and empty. There was only a single large tree in the entire courtyard. This large tree is so large that it required three to four people to encircle it. Its height was around twenty meters. However, the treetop covered an extremely large area, over a hundred meters in diameter.There was a long stone bench located in the courtyard. Beside the stone bench was a row of weapons. Swords, spears, staffs, clubs, and all kinds of exotic weapons were all present. According to Qin Yu’s knowledge, he suspected that those weapons were all above High Quality Divine Artifact level. They ought to be at the level of Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts.“Was that the poisonous bug that caused the death of Immortal Emperor Ni Yang?”Qin Yu saw that in front of that row of weapons were actually several tens of bug carcasses.“Ni Yang from back then, after he threw Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor off and came to the courtyard, did he get too excited and want to obtain the weapons without paying attention to the bugs under his foot?” Seeing the scene in front of him, Qin Yu was able to imagine what had happened back then.After a moment, Qin Yu’s gaze was cast toward the left side of the courtyard, toward a simple and unadorned spear located beside the flower terrace.“Immortal Emperor Ni Yang, how could you have known, that this ordinary looking spear was actually a weapon more precious than that entire row of weapons.” Qin Yu proceeded to walk towards that spear.
Chapter 458 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 31 – The Housekeeper of the Bewitching God TempleTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin[TL: In this chapter, IET used two different forms of ‘refine.’ First, there is the refine to create. (the refine from previous chapter) that I decided to change to refine and create to differentiate. The second form is to refine for usage. Essentially, it has to do with the dripping of blood to form a blood oath. I decided to keep this as refine for now. Editors, if there are any suggestions, please feel free to change them.]In the peaceful courtyard stood a short and robust tree.Qin Yu slowly walked to the spear beside the flower terrace. At the same time, he was carefully surveying this High Level Heavenly Divine Artifact that the master of the Bewitching God Temple, Chehou Yuan, prided himself in. The entire spear was simple, unadorned and black colored. The tip of the spear was very bright. Only on the edge of the tip was there a blood red colored line, adding a hint of murderous aura to the spear. Merely, at this moment, the blood colored line on the edge of the spear was somewhat dull in color.Upon seeing this spear, Qin Yu had immediately grown fond of it. He liked the feeling of the spear, simple and unadorned, yet still possessing a hint of murderous aura.“Chehou Yuan’s level of skill, regarding barrier techniques, is truly profound to an astonishing level ” Qin Yu smiled as he walked to the front of the spear. He then used his finger to write ‘Yuan’ on the spear.Right after he finished writing the word ‘Yuan’, the spear immediately started emitting a faint crimson light.Qin Yu faintly smelled the stench of blood. His gaze grew brighter and brighter, as he was looking at the spear. After a short moment, that crimson colored light disappeared. However, at this moment, the spear’s appearance had already undergone a huge change.The shaft of the spear was now a dark black color. It was radiating a fascinating deep and black luster. It was like the spear’s shaft was able to swallow one’s soul.The tip of the spear was bright and shiny. It was so sharp that merely by looking at it one would feel a burst of chilliness in one’s heart.On the edge of the flat spearhead was a line of bright colored blood. That line of blood extended from the edge and around the entire spearhead. Upon seeing it, Qin Yu had an urge to kill.“Heavenly Divine Artifacts, I’m not even sure if I can bind it.” Muttered Qin Yu.“You can.” Suddenly, a voice sounded.Qin Yu was immensely shocked. Immediately, he turned his head over to look. However, there was no one behind him. Qin Yu was unable to refrain from displaying a shocked expression. “Am I hearing things? I am certain I heard someone saying something earlier.”“I’m over here.” The voice once again sounded from his side.Qin Yu turned over to look at a lightning speed. He saw a kind looking old grandpa walking over. This kind looking old man continued. “Youngster of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, can you tell me your name?”Qin Yu frowned as he looked at the man in front of him. He started pondering in his mind. “Who is he? According to the words of the master of the Bewitching God Temple, there shouldn’t be anyone else here. How did such an expert appear here?”The reason why Qin Yu called this old man an expert was because… Qin Yu was unable to detect the aura of the man standing in front of him at all. Qin Yu was certain that this man in front of him possessed an extremely frightening level of power and might even be a Heavenly Deity ranked expert from the Divine Realm.“I am called Qin Yu, may I ask who Senior might be?” Said Qin Yu immediately.Where exactly did this old man come from? Is he coming to steal the High Quality Heavenly Divine Spear?“Me? I am the housekeeper of the Bewitching God Temple, A’Fu. This name was bestowed to me by my master.” The kind looking old man said with a smile. “Qin Yu, you can address me as Uncle Fu. If one day you become the master of the Bewitching God Temple, you can also address me as A’Fu.”Qin Yu was stunned.This great expert in front of him was actually called ‘A’Fu?’ That master of the Bewitching God Temple truly plays around too much.“Uncle Fu, how come you’re in the Bewitching God Temple?” Qin Yu asked.Uncle Fu lightly smiled and said. “Me? I’ve lived in the Bewitching God Temple for my entire life. I have never left it. Even when those people from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm came in here to test out their luck and try to obtain a Divine Weapon, I still only observed them.”Qin Yu was unable to refrain from feeling ashamed.It would appear that everything that he had done when entering the Bewitching God Temple was completely known by this Uncle Fu.“According to the order my master had left behind when he left here, whoever obtains the message my master left behind, shall become his sole successor. So from now on, i will consider you my master’s sole successor.” Said Uncle Fu.Qin Yu felt a burst of dizziness.However, he instantly recalled what the Bewitching God Temple’s master Chehou Yuan had said… “Since you’ve found this location and also opened the image I left behind, you shall become the sole person with the opportunity to obtain the greatest treasure of my Bewitching God Temple. Of course… as to whether or not you’ll obtain it, will depend on your luck as well as your ability.”Combining what Chehou Yuan had said with what Uncle Fu had just said.Qin Yu realized one thing. Opening that image is merely the starting point, becoming the official successor of the Bewitching God Temple. However, what he’ll be able to obtain… that would still have to depend on his own ability.“Qin Yu, although you are the sole successor of my master, according to the order my master had left behind, you must have sufficient strength in order to obtain the two great palaces. Of course… even if you do not possess sufficient strength, just by merely opening my master’s hidden room, you are qualified to obtain this Divine Spear.” Said Uncle Fu while smiling.Qin Yu nodded.This Uncle Fu mentioned obtaining the two great palaces that the Bewitching God Temple’s master left behind, where then are the two great palaces?“Qin Yu, this spear is a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact. With your current soul’s level, you are capable of personalizing such an artifact.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile. “Quickly, drop some blood on the Heavenly Divine Spear and make it yours.”Qin Yu nodded. He extended his right hand and grabbed the spear.A coldness that penetrated through the heart. That dark black colored spear shaft sent a ice-cold sensation to Qin Yu following along his palm. Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Yu immediately dripped blood out from his finger.“Buzz…” Having absorbed a drop of Qin Yu’s blood, the spear immediately started trembling. The crimson colored radiance was faintly emitted once again. The blood line revolving around the tip of the spear had also grown even brighter.Qin Yu was able to clearly feel a sort of connection, the connection between this spear and his soul!“Spear name: ‘Waning Snow.’ High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact. It’s firmness is so strong that it cannot be destroyed. Two major auxiliary powers: Body Break and Devouring Soul.” Information regarding the Heavenly Divine Spear Waning Snow had instantly appeared in Qin Yu’s mind.When Qin Yu completely comprehended the attack power of this Divine Spear, Qin Yu was unable to refrain his shock.“With this Divine Spear, my attack power has increased ten times at the very least.” Qin Yu was overjoyed. “This Divine Spear was said to be so hard that it cannot be destroyed. Furthermore, it can even completely crush its opponent’s body in order to amplify its attack power. At the same time, it also has the ability to devour souls… truly amazing.”Uncle Fu who stood to the side saw Qin Yu’s expression. He laughed and said. “Only by having the soul devouring effect would an artifact be considered as an absolute top class treasure. Back then, master had collected all kinds of top-notch materials from the Divine Realm and spent three entire years in order to create this High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact. Ordinarily, only powerful Grandmist Spiritual Treasures would possess the ability to devour souls. However, this High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact also possesses it. There is no need for me to say anymore regarding the preciousness of this Divine Spear Waning Snow.”Excited, Qin Yu nodded his head.Soul devouring!That is, devouring the soul’s energy!Against the true experts of the Divine Realm, mere physical attacks do not possess much effect. Their true lethal weakness is the soul! Only through eliminating the soul would one achieve true victory.As long as one was struck by this Divine Spear, even if one’s body does not suffer any injury, one’s soul would grow weaker. After being attacked by the Divine Spear numerous times, one’s soul could even disperse. One could easily imagine how powerful this Divine Spear was.“Body Break. If one’s opponent’s strength is too strong, then even trying to damage their body would be hard.” Said Qin Yu as he smiled.Uncle Fu nodded and said. “Body Break. That is an effect caused by the blood line imprint on the spear tip of this Divine Spear Waning Snow. Even if one’s opponent possesses a very powerful body, even if you’re unable to destroy their body, you can still leave behind a hole in their body!”Qin Yu held the spear with one hand. He brandished it for a little while and was extremely satisfied.Regarding spears, Qin Yu knew how to use them pretty well.“Uncle Fu, earlier you said that I am capable of binding this Divine Spear Snow Breaker? How did you determine that?” Qin Yu thought of this. When binding a treasure, it would usually be determined by one’s soul’s level.However, even though Qin Yu’s soul’s level was very powerful right now, he was still unable to even bind the Meteoric Tear.Uncle Fu laughed and said. “Refining weapons is indeed dependent on one’s soul’s level. I can tell you that the people of your Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm are capable of refining Divine Artifacts when their soul reaches the Emperor level. However, only when their soul’s level reach that of the Deity stage, would they be able to bind Heavenly Divine Artifacts.”“Some time ago, there was another person from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that came here. Unfortunately his soul’s level was truly too weak. He was unable to even withstand the poison from the Divine Realm’s poisonous insect. Even if he were to be allowed to bind a Heavenly Divine Artifact, he would still be unable to do it.” Uncle Fu lightly laughed.Qin Yu nodded in understanding.So it turned out that in order to bind a Heavenly Divine Artifact, one’s soul must be at the level of Deities.Currently, Qin Yu’s soul had reached the ‘Golden Soul Pellet’ stage. That was to say, the level of Deities. However, why was it that he was unable to bind the Meteoric Tear? What exactly was this Meteoric Tear?“Uncle Fu, are there treasures that even Deities were unable to bind?” Qin Yu asked.“There are.” Uncle Fu nodded and said. “As Heavenly Divine Artifacts and Divine Artifacts are all man made, they are comparatively easy to bind. Yet there is another kind of artifact… Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. The Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are hard to bind.”Qin Yu recalled three things… Jiang Lan’s Realm, Meteoric Tear as well as that golden bead he obtained on the Fourteen Star Emperor Level Dark Star.These three items were all items that he was unable to completely bind.“How hard is it to bind the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?” Qin Yu asked.“It’s not that they are hard to bind, but rather that Grandmist Spiritual Treasures possess spirituality. Binding them requires not only ability, it also requires luck as well as many other things.” Uncle Fu had followed the master of the Bewitching God Temple for numerous years. Thus, he also knew quite a lot.“There are some Grandmist Spiritual Treasures that, if brought together by fate, could be bound by even a mortal. However, there are also Grandmist Spiritual Treasures that are hard to bind even for Heavenly Deities.” Uncle Fu was smiling. “Grandmist Spiritual Treasures contain within them Grandmist Spiritual Energy. In order to bind them, firstly it would depend on your ability and secondly your destiny.”“Of course, the higher one’s soul’s level is, the easier it will be for one to bind a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.” Uncle Fu summarized.Qin Yu nodded in contemplation.Qin Yu now understood somewhat. Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, regardless of whether they’re Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, produced by nature, or man made Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, all contained Grandmist Spiritual Energy… binding them was no easy task.“Jiang Lan’s Realm was created by Uncle Lan, it should be an Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.” Qin Yu thought in his heart.Even with his current strength, he was still unable to open the third layer of the Jiang Lan’s Realm. Thus, he had naturally come to the conclusion that it was a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.“As for the Meteoric Tear, it was absorbed into my body when I was still a mortal and could be considered as having recognized me as its master. However, even now, I still have yet to gain complete control over it. It would appear that it is another Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.” Qin Yu started smiling.Although he had still not gained complete control over it even now, that Meteoric Tear had admitted him as its master since back in the Mortal Realm. Evidently, this Meteoric Tear was brought together with him by fate.Some Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were able to be bound by Mortals. That was true.“Unfortunately for the golden bead, it froze even my Soul’s Power when touching it. I truly don’t know how to go about binding it.” Qin Yu thought to himself. He then immediately shook his head and stopped thinking about it.After putting away the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact ‘Waning Snow,’ Qin Yu started chatting with the housekeeper of the Bewitching God Temple, Uncle Fu, as they walked to the weapons rack with the numerous weapons.“Back then, that man from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, that came here with the Bewitching God Painting, stepped on a dead poisonous bug. Sigh. With such a weak soul, he still tried to vainly attempt to obtain a Heavenly Divine Artifact. Isn’t that courting death?” Said Uncle Fu with a light smile.Qin Yu looked to the numerous dead poisonous bug carcesses on the ground.“Uncle Fu, is the poison of these poisonous bugs very powerful?” Qin Yu asked.“Not at all. If one’s soul reached the Deity level and condensed into a Golden Soul Pellet, then even if he were to be poisoned by these bugs, it would take merely a short while for him to remove the poison. Merely, if one’s soul still hasn’t condensed into a Golden Soul Pellet, then one would definitely die upon being poisoned.” Said Uncle Fu indifferently.Qin Yu nodded. He then walked to the rack of Heavenly Divine Weapons.“These ought to be all Heavenly Divine Weapons right? What quality are they?” Qin Yu asked.Uncle Fu nodded and said. “These Heavenly Divine Artifacts are all ornaments that my master had casually forged. They are all weapons that are made from the discarded materials guests had left behind. All of them are Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts and possess no special abilities. They are extremely ordinary.”Qin Yu sighed in his heart.Discarded materials left behind by guests?This master of the Bewitching God Temple was truly amazing. He had casually created a series of Heavenly Divine Artifacts and threw them aside as ornaments.“If you want them, you can have them. However, I suspect you do not have any Heavenly Divine Artifact level spatial ring right? It’ll be hard for you to put them away.” Said Uncle Fu with a light smile. Qin Yu merely smiled mysteriously.He walked to the front of those weapons. Then, with an intention of his mind.“Absorb!”That weapons rack disappeared into thin air. Of course, the series of Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts on the weapons rack was also absorbed into the Jiang Lan’s Realm by Qin Yu.“You.” Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu in shock. “You possess a Heavenly Divine Artifact level spatial ring? Spatial artifacts are things that are extremely hard to make. My master hated creating that sort of artifact the most. However, to those Godkings, even though they are relatively unskilled at forging artifacts, due to their complete comprehension of the spatial laws, creating those spatial artifacts becomes comparatively easy.”Qin Yu lightly smiled.There is even specialization in techniques. Those Godkings that stand at the apex of the Divine Realm had completely comprehended the spatial laws. Thus, it was naturally not too hard for them to forge spatial rings. No matter how amazing Chehou Yuan was, his comprehension of the spatial laws was still inferior to the Godkings.“Uncle Fu, earlier you had said that the master of the Bewitching God Temple left behind two palaces, where are they?” Qin Yu had been concerned about that the entire time.“I knew that you’ve been concerned about that the entire time.” Uncle Fu turned around and looked to the palaces behind him and to the right of him. He then said. “Qin Yu, this Bewitching God Temple is divided into four great palaces: Front Palace, Transfer Palace, Artifacts Palace and the Refining Flames Palace. My master had practically hidden all his treasures within the Artifacts Palace and the Refining Flames Palace.”
Chapter 459 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 32 – Do You Have a Soul?Translated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin“Artifacts Palace? Refining Flames Palace?”Qin Yu felt that his heart had jumped ferociously. He was already able to guess the status the master of the Bewitching God Temple possessed in the Divine Realm. The treasure storage left behind by such a person, oh how astonishing that would be?“The palace across from the Front Palace is the Artifacts Palace. The palace to the left of the courtyard is the Transfer Palace. To the right is the Refining Flames Palace.” Uncle Fu explained as he pointed at the three palaces.Qin Yu looked to the three palaces.The entrance of the Transfer Palace was wide open. It ought to be very easy to enter it. However, the entrances of the Artifacts Palace and the Refining Flames Palace were completely shut.“My master’s ability to create artifacts could be regarded as the best in the entire Divine Realm. The Refining Flames Palace is the place where my master would generally create artifacts. Inside the Refining Flames Palace is the Refining Mastery that my master had left behind. There are also many instruments that my master used to create artifacts.” Uncle Fu said while smiling.Qin Yu’s gaze immediately turned blazing as he looked to the Refining Flames Palace.Qin Yu understood very well that regardless of whether it was the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, the Divine Realm or the Mortal Realm, they were all locations where one’s strength determines one’s status. In a world where those with strength prevail… the status of a master who possessed the greatest ability to create weapons and artifacts, its exaltedness was something one could easily imagine.Chehou Yuan had also said that there were even Godking level experts that had come to him to ask him to assist them in creating Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Chehou Yuan, his craftsmanship ability had reached such a level where even Godkings have come to ask for his help, the status that Chehou Yuan possessed was well imaginable.“If I were to learn this ability to create artifacts, then it’d likely be a lot easier for me to take Li’er as my wife.” Qin Yu’s heart grew excited. Qin Yu also knew that even if he were to obtain the Forging Mastery, he would still have to spend a large amount of time in order to become a Forging Master. However, if he didn’t have the Forging Mastery… then no matter how hard he tried, it’d still be very difficult for him to achieve major accomplishments in the field of refining and creating artifacts.After all, the statuses of peak experts of all skills and trades were not something that one could reach with merely effort. There was also the need for Heavenly Resources!Uncle Fu continued. “Although there are not many treasures in the Refining Flames Palace, contained within it is my master’s Forging Mastery. Thus, it can be considered the most important place in the entire Bewitching God Temple. There are two requirements for one to be able to open the Refining Flames Palace.”“What are they?” Qin Yu blurted out.Even someone as calm as Qin Yu was unable to resist his thirst for the Forging Mastery.“My master once said that only his disciple would be qualified to succeed the Refining Flames Palace. Thus, of the two requirements to open the Refining Flames Palaces, the first one is…. for one’s True Flame to be at the ‘White Pure Flame’ level!” Said Uncle Fu with a light smile.“White Pure Flame?” Qin Yu was stunned. He only recovered after a short moment. “What level flame is the White Pure Flame?”Uncle Fu explained. “Generally, the True Flame of Deities are ‘Black Divine Flames.’ As for experts at the Heavenly Deity level, their body’s True Flame is the ‘White Pure Flame.’ In order to learn my master’s refining techniques, merely the requirement to become a disciple is that one’s True Flame must be White Pure Flame.”‘The requirement to become a disciple is that one’s True Flame must be White Pure Flame?’ Qin Yu felt bitter in his heart.Although the Forging Mastery of the Forging Master was extremely precious, the requirement one must meet in order to learn it was extremely astonishing. Fortunately his ‘Stellar Transformation’ martial technique was also special. Qin Yu was only at the Origin Stage but his True Flame was already the Black Divine Flame.Qin Yu suddenly thought in his mind. “That Chehou Yuan said that the Bewitching God Temple would block the people from the Divine Realm from entering it. If one haven’t reach the Deity level, how would their body’s True Flame be at the White Pure Flame level?”Uncle Fu seemed to have guessed what Qin Yu thought. He continued. “My master had already anticipated that the True Flame of people from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm cannot be the White Pure Flame. Thus, he had relocated an item from the Refining Flames Palace to the Artifacts Palace.”Qin Yu started at Uncle Fu.“What’s in the Artifacts Palace?” Qin Yu asked.“The Artifacts Palace contains within it a large number of things. For example, there are precious forging materials. My master’s forging materials are all placed in the Artifacts Palace. At the same time, there are also some precious Heavenly Divine Artifacts and even a couple Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.” Said Uncle Fu solemnly.Even though he was already prepared, Qin Yu was still unable to refrain from looking at the Artifacts Palace again.Chehou Yuan’s forging materials? Precious Heavenly Divine Artifacts? Precious Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?“The Artifacts Palace is the storage of all kinds of treasures that my master possessed. It is still possible for you to obtain them.” Uncle Fu said while smiling. “There are a lot of things in the Artifacts Palace. At the same time, it is also very messy. There are also precious items like the Divine Spiritual Crystal Soul, machineries that my master has created and so on.”Qin Yu nodded.It would seem that practically all of the treasures of the Bewitching God Temple was hidden in the Artifacts Palace. As for the Refining Flames Palace, it contained only the Forging Mastery as well as some forging tools.Qin Yu suddenly asked. “Uncle Fu, you’ve said that the master of the Bewitching God Temple had once transferred one item from the Refining Flames Palace to the Artifacts Palace, what is that item?” Qin Yu had a premonition that this item that was transferred was no ordinary item.Uncle Fu smiled and said. “It was nine ‘Purple Origin Flame Beads.’”“Nine Purple Origin Flame Beads? What is a Purple Origin Flame Bead?” Qin Yu grew puzzled. He had never heard about something called Purple Origin Flame Bead.Uncle Fu explained. “The Purple Origin Flame Beads are nine Flame Beads birthed by the world. They could be considered as Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.”‘Since they’re Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, they most definitely won’t be inferior.’ That was what Qin Yu thought.“However, the Purple Origin Flame Beads are merely third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. If one were to compare the preciousness, then they are inferior to even your High Quality Heavenly Divine Spear Waning Snow.” Said Uncle Fu with a light smile.Qin Yu nodded as if he had expected that.He knew that Grandmist Spiritual Treasures only meant that they contained within them Grandmist Spiritual Energy. Their strength was not necessarily higher than that of Heavenly Divine Artifacts. Furthermore, one must also consider as to what quality the Grandmist Spiritual Treasure was. A third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasure like this was nothing extraordinary.Uncle Fu’s tone suddenly changed. He said. “However, the nine Purple Origin Flame Beads have been re-made by my master. I do not know how my master did it, but he basically combined all nine Purple Origin Flame Beads into one and increased their power by a large margin. At the same time, it turned into the core of the entire Bewitching God Temple.”“Core of the entire Bewitching God Temple?” Qin Yu suddenly thought of something.Uncle Fu nodded. “That’s right. In the past, these nine Purple Origin Flame Beads were located in the Refining Flame Palace. That was because when my master extract the fire energy from those Flame Beads, it allowed him to create artifacts more effortlessly. This time around, when my master left, he transferred these nine Purple Origin Flame Beads into the Artifacts Palace… As long as you can absorb these nine Purple Origin Flame Beads into your body, this entire Bewitching God Temple shall be yours.”Qin Yu was unable to refrain his joy. “This aspect is actually pretty similar to the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. The Qingyu Immortal Mansion also has an Elemental Spirit Essence Soul as its core. This Bewitching God Temple also possesses a core.”“My master once told me that it is hard to open the Refining Flames Palace. However, if you are able to open the Artifacts Palace and obtain the nine Purple Origin Flame Beads, then you’ll have obtained the Bewitching God Temple. You would then be able to carry the Bewitching God Temple with you and open the Refining Flames Palace when your strength grows stronger.” Said Uncle Fu.Qin Yu suddenly remembered something.“Uncle Fu, you said earlier that there are two major requirements to opening the Refining Flames Palace. You’ve only said that the body’s True Flame must reach the White Pure Flame level. What is the second requirement?” Qin Yu suddenly asked.“The second one is truly difficult.” Uncle Fu sighed. “When your True Flame reached the White Pure Flame level, you’ll be able to open the entrance of the Refining Flames Palace. However, after you enter the Refining Flames Palace, you’ll encounter three great formation arrays. You must break through all three of the great formation arrays in order to obtain it. The second requirement is thus requiring you to achieve a very high level of comprehension toward the Divine Realm’s formation arrays and barriers.”Qin Yu was speechless.Formation arrays, barriers?Qin Yu knew that this was his biggest failing. That was because the time he had cultivated was truly too short. Formation arrays and barriers are things that required the most time to research.Furthermore, the requirement of the Refining Flames Palace was to achieve a high level comprehension of the formation arrays and barriers of the Divine Realm. Yet currently, Qin Yu merely knew of some basic formation arrays and barriers of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.“What level is that Illusion Array outside of the Bewitching God Temple?” Qin Yu asked.“That? That’s only the lowest, the most basic of the Divine Realm’s Illusion Array. Qin Yu, think about it. As even you people from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm were capable of entering into parts of this Divine Realm’s Illusion Array, just think about how low level that formation array is.” Said Uncle Fu indifferently. “That formation array was merely something that master had casually set up in order to prevent the people from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm from bothering the Bewitching God Temple unceasingly.”Qin Yu took a deep breath. He started laughing. “Forget about it. I won’t think about the matters of opening the Refining Flames Palace right now. Let me first open the Artifacts Palace.”Inside the courtyard, Qin Yu and Uncle Fu walked to the entrance of the Artifacts Palace.The entrance door of the Artifacts Palace was entirely dark red in color. This entrance door was not in a style of two opening doors. Instead, the only way to open this entrance door was to slowly lift it up to expose a tunnel leading to the Artifacts Palace.“My master once said before that the requirements to open this Artifacts Palace are not high at all. The first requirement is to find the mechanism of this entrance door through using Divine Awareness. The second requirement… once you’ve found the mechanism, I will tell you.” Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu.Confidently, Qin Yu spread out his Divine Awareness.Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness covered the entire entrance door. It was carefully inspecting every single area of the entrance door.One time.No result at all.“Let me remind you, the mechanism is located above the entrance gate.” Said Uncle Fu indifferently.Qin Yu nodded. He then proceeded to search for it even more attentively, over and over. The entire entrance gate was merely that big. However, Qin Yu searched for the mechanism with his Divine Awareness several times back and forth to no avail.“Mn?” Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness was locked onto two locations toward the bottom of the entrance gate. Earlier, when his Divine Awareness passed through those two places, he had felt that they were unusual.“What are these two places for?” A Divine Sword appeared in Qin Yu’s hand. He struck those two places with his Divine Sword. His Origin Energy had also passed through the Divine Sword and struck on those two places.Suddenly…Cyan lights exploded outward from those two places. At the same time, two protrusions appeared from those two places.“Very good. You’ve accomplished the first requirement to opening the Artifacts Palace. Originally I thought your soul’s level to be at the Golden Soul Pellet stage. However, it would appear that your soul has already reached the Embryo Soul stage.” Said Uncle Fu while smiling.Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu in confusion.Embryo Soul?“Uncle Fu, you said that my soul has reached the Embryo Soul stage?” Qin Yu asked again.Uncle Fu said matter-of-factly. “As far as I know, in order to detect the hidden mechanism, one’s soul must reach a level close to that of a High Level Deities. In order to find the hidden mechanism in the door, one’s soul must reach the Embryo Soul stage. If you did not reach the Embryo Soul stage, then how could you have found the location of the mechanism?”Qin Yu nodded in understanding.“Could it be that this Uncle Fu is not a Heavenly Deity level expert?” Qin Yu grew puzzled.Qin Yu knew very well himself that his soul was merely at the Gold Soul Pellet stage. For him to be able to luckily find the location of the mechanism, it likely was because of the assistance from the Meteoric Tear that allowed his Soul’s Power to be even more sensitive.“If Uncle Fu was a Heavenly Deity level expert, he should be able to discover my soul’s level. However, he was unable to discover it… then he isn’t a Heavenly Deity. However, I am unable to detect Uncle Fu’s aura at all. Why is that the case?” Qin Yu grew puzzled.With Qin Yu’s current soul’s level, if he was a deity, Qin Yu would definitely be able to tell.Qin Yu was unable to refrain his confusion.“Qin Yu, as you’ve found this hidden mechanism, these two protrusions have also appeared. What you must do now is to grab these two protrusions with your hands and pull the entrance door up.” Said Uncle Fu.Qin Yu woke back up from his pondering.“Pull up the entire stone entrance door?” Confidently, Qin Yu walked to the two protrusions. These two protrusions were merely a foot taller than the ground. The distance between the two protrusions were just right for Qin Yu to grab onto them with his hands.Qin Yu grabbed the two protrusions and started pulling them.“Heeh!”Qin Yu shouted. The muscles in his arms immediately started bulging. However, the entrance door did not move in the slightest.“You can use both your body’s power as well as the energy within your body. It is all fine as long as you can open this entrance door.” Said Uncle Fu as he stood to the side.At this moment, Qin Yu was half squatting and grabbing firmly onto those two protrusions.Nine Steps Force, Gold Force, Origin Energy… Qin Yu poured all of his power into his hands. Qin Yu’s muscle’s strength had also burst forth to their limits. His face had also turned red.“Rise!”Qin Yu roared. This was the strongest power that Qin Yu possessed!Qin Yu’s muscles started to tremble. His muscles were clearly bulging. However, the entrance door merely slightly trembled and then stopped responding.“To be able to make the entrance door tremble, that means… once you increase your strength to three times the strength you possess now, you’ll be able to pull the entrance door up completely.” Said Uncle Fu who stood to the side.Qin Yu was unable to help himself from letting go of the protrusions.“According to the set up that my master had made, in order to open the main entrance door, one’s power must reach the Low Level Heavenly Deity level. In order to find the hidden mechanism, one’s soul must reach the Low Level Heavenly Deity level. My master had said… that at the very least, one must reach this level to be qualified to possess the Bewitching God Temple.” Said Uncle Fu slowly.“Low Level Heavenly Deity?” Qin Yu was shocked.His strength was comparable to one third of that of a Low Level Heavenly Deity?“Your soul’s level have reached the Embryo Soul. If you continue to train, you should be able to increase your strength to Low Level Heavenly Deity level.” Said Uncle Fu.Qin Yu was once again puzzled.“Uncle Fu, do you have a soul?” Qin Yu suddenly asked.Qin Yu was unable to think of a reason why he was unable to detect even the slightest amount of aura from Uncle Fu. There was only a single possibility… Uncle Fu does not have a soul. However, could a human not have a soul?Uncle Fu was unable to refrain from looking at Qin Yu with a shocked expression. He then calmed down and said with a smile. “You’ve found out? That’s right, I do not have a soul.”
Chapter 460 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 33 – PuppetTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinAs Qin Yu was unable to detect Uncle Fu’s aura, he had concluded that Uncle Fu should be levels above him. However, Uncle Fu was unable to detect his true strength. That appeared to be a contradiction. Qin Yu was only able to think of one possibility… that Uncle Fu does not have a soul.However, Qin Yu was unable to accept this conclusion. Thus, he blurted out that question. Yet, Uncle Fu’s response had truly shocked Qin Yu.“Uncle Fu, you truly do not have a soul?” Qin Yu asked again to confirm.Uncle Fu smiled and nodded. “That’s right, I don’t. What, is that strange?”“How is that possible? The most important aspect of a person is their soul. If one does not have a soul, how could they exist?” Qin Yu retorted. “Even if one were a Heavenly Deity, I’d suspect that one would still die without a soul.”Uncle Fu smiled and instead asked Qin Yu a question in response. “Have I said that I am a person?”Qin Yu was stunned. “Uncle Fu, you mean?”Uncle Fu took a deep sigh. “I am not a person at all. Instead, I am a puppet that was created by my master. Merely, I am a relatively high level puppet.”“Puppet?” Qin Yu was listening attentively.“In the Divine Realm, some of the high level craftsmen are able to directly create bodies. After placing some simple sentience into the bodies, those bodies would then become puppets.” Uncle Fu shook his head and said while smiling. “Merely, to create a puppet is very difficult. For one, it is hard to create a human shaped corporeal body. Secondly, it is hard to install wisdom and sentience into the body.”Qin Yu suddenly recalled the hometown of his master Lei Wei…. that science and technology cosmos where Earth was located in.“I know of a Mortal Realm level cosmic space. In the cosmic space, there is the existence of a kind of science and technology. Within that was the existence of artificial intelligence.” Qin Yu said.Uncle Fu shook his head and said unconcernedly. “I too gained some knowledge of the existence of the science and technology cosmos during the time when I was in the Divine Realm. It is merely an ordinary level cosmos of the same level as the Mortal Realm. They utilize extrinsic matters to research the cosmos. That is truly very low level… as far as I know, there has yet to be a single science and technology cosmos that has managed to breakthrough the bindings of the Mortal Realm to a cosmic space at the level of Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.”Qin Yu nodded.Merely by relying on external forces, without cultivating one’s own body, it was very hard to achieve success.“Furthermore, that sort of intelligence is also very low level. It possesses neither emotions nor the ability to think for itself. It is merely a very low level intelligence. However, the ‘puppets’ that Deity level experts create, they are practically no different from people when looking from the exterior.” Uncle Fu said.“Indeed.” From the conversation with Uncle Fu, Qin Yu sensed that Uncle Fu possessed the same intelligence as people.“Uncle Fu, how did puppets manage to possess intelligence?” Qin Yu asked.Uncle Fu shook his head and said. “Regarding that, I am honestly not very certain. That it because even in the Divine Realm, there are not many people who know how to create puppets. In the Divine Realm, those who possess puppets as servants are all people with great status and power.”Qin Yu suddenly recalled a thing.“Uncle Fu, look.” With but a thought, the Sword Immortal Puppet that was bestowed to him by Uncle Lan flew out from Qin Yu’s body. “Is this the sort of puppet that you spoke of?”Qin Yu still remember that back then when Uncle Lan gave this to him, he had called it the ‘Sword Immortal Puppet.’“This is a puppet.” Uncle Fu instantly confirmed it. However, after looking at it for a long time, he said. “The material that was used to create this puppet isn’t very precious. Its body’s toughness also could not be considered very strong. Merely, the expert who created this puppet possessed an extremely high level of craftsmanship. He was actually able to make such a result from ordinary materials.”“How good is the strength of this puppet?” Qin Yu promptly asked.Uncle Fu said indifferently. “The skeleton of this puppet could be considered as being tough and durable. I reckon it’s comparable to a Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact. Yet, its muscles are only ordinary. However, I sense that this puppet’s skeleton and muscles complements one another. It was forged extremely skillfully. To be able to create such a puppet, there are also not many experts in the Divine Realm that are capable of doing it.”Uncle Fu had followed the master of the Bewitching God Temple, Chehou Yuan, for all these years, thus he also know quite a lot.“However, this puppet does not have intelligence.” Uncle Fu was a bit puzzled. “I believe that for an expert who could refine such a harmonious corporeal body, it should not be hard for him to install simple intelligence to this puppet.”Qin Yu suddenly came to a realization.Uncle Lan had actually given him a Divine Realm’s puppet. This signified that Uncle Lan’s intention was to give Qin Yu a better guarantee in his survival. It was very simple why Uncle Lan did not install intelligence to the puppet. Uncle Lan wanted Qin Yu to rely mostly on himself.“Uncle Fu, how good is your corporeal body?” Qin Yu suddenly asked.A confident shine flashed through Uncle Fu’s eyes. He said. “As the housekeeper of the number one artifact craftsman of the Divine Realm, there are not many puppets that are stronger than me in the entire Divine Realm. My body’s toughness… is definitely at the level of High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact!”Qin Yu was startled.High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact. Oh how tough and durable that was! It was likely that even ordinary High Level Heavenly Deities did not possess such a valiant body. Uncle Fu’s body was actually this powerful.“However, what use is there for my body to be tough? Although I possess the same intelligence as people, I still do not possess a soul. I am not a living thing and cannot cultivate nor could I comprehend the spatial laws… With my strength, if I were to encounter a Mid Level Heavenly Deity, then I’d have my hands tied, waiting to be captured.” A trace of helplessness appeared on Uncle Fu’s face.Qin Yu understood.Experts of the Heavenly Deity level most likely possess a very powerful comprehension toward the spatial laws. When experts reach that level, who among them would actually fight you in close range? Through merely controlling the space, they’re able to execute people from afar. This was also the reason why Uncle Fu stated that he is inferior to Mid Level Heavenly Deities.Inside the courtyard, a leaf floated by Qin Yu and slowly landed on the floor.Qin Yu turned his head around to look. “Uncle Fu, what is the name of this large tree?”“Red Tung Tree. It is also classified as a treasured variety in the Divine Realm. Red Tung Trees grows extremely slowly…. this Red Tung Tree is already several billion years old.” Said Uncle Fu while smiling.Qin Yu looked to the Red Tung Tree in front of him in shock. This tree had a girth requiring three to four people to surround it. Its height was only around twenty meters. Its treetop could also be considered wide. The diameter was over a hundred meters.However, a height of twenty meters and a girth requiring three to four people to surround it.Had this been in Qin Yu’s hometown… the Purple Mystic Star’s ‘Great Wilderness,’ then a tree of this height and thickness could be seen everywhere. In merely several tens of years a tree would be able to grow to this size. However, this tree was several billions of years old!“It’s only this tall after such a long time?” Qin Yu was somewhat shocked.“You’d best not underestimate the Red Tung Tree. I can let you know explicitly that this Red Tung Tree definitely worth more than your High Quality Heavenly Divine Spear Waning Snow.” Said Uncle Fu with absolute certainty.Qin Yu looked to the Red Tung Tree in amazement.“The Red Tung Tree, whether its roots or its branch, they are all extremely tough and durable. Their toughness are naturally comparable to ordinary High Quality Divine Artifacts. If one were to create items using either the roots or the branches of the Red Tung Tree, then one could make a Low Quality or Mid Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact.” Slowly said Uncle Fu as he looked to the Red Tung Tree. “Especially the trunk of the Red Tung Tree. With such a thick Red Tung Tree trunk, with merely a slight refinement, its toughness would definitely be at the level of High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact.”Qin Yu now understood that this Red Tung Tree was covered with treasures.“This Red Tung Tree was a reward that my master had sought for when he helped Godking Lei Bu refine a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. Back then, Godking Lei Bu was very pained to give this to my master too.” Uncle Fu said while smiling. “I suspect that in the entire Divine Realm, the only tree that’s more precious that a Red Tung Tree would be the legendary Ancient Ironwood Tree.”Qin Yu was shocked. He did not expect for there to be a tree even more amazing than the Red Tung Tree.“That Ancient Ironwood Tree is something that even my master had never seen before. He had only seen a branch from the Ancient Ironwood Tree before. It was a material that a High Level Heavenly Deity brought with to my master when asking him to help create an artifact.” Said Uncle Fu.Qin Yu naturally understood it in his heart.Even the Bewitching God Temple’s master had never seen it before, the preciousness of the Ancient Ironwood Tree was something that one can well imagine.“Uncle Fu, I am unable to open this Artifacts Palace. What should I do?” Qin Yu looked to the stone entrance door beside him. He felt a bit helpless in his heart.Uncle Fu still had a face filled with smiles. He said. “Don’t worry. Didn’t I tell you this before? As you’ve opened the image my master had left behind, you are then the sole successor of my master. It is fine for you to be unable to open it now. It is not too late for you to come back when you possess the strength to open it in the future.”“By the time I possess the strength to open it, I reckon I’ll already be in the Divine Realm.” Said Qin Yu helplessly.“Even if you’ve ascended to the Divine Realm, you could still find people to assist you in descending to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm after your strength has increased greatly.” Comforted Uncle Fu.“Is it very easy for one to descend from the Divine Realm to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm?” Qin Yu grew puzzled.Uncle Fu shook his head repeatedly. “Of course not. Other than Godkings and Exalted Celestials who would casually pass through space, the rest of the people, including people of high status like my master, would require others to help them if they want to descend to the lower realm.”“Require others to help them?” Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu. He was waiting for Uncle Fu’s response.“It is too early for you to ask this. When you reach the Heavenly Deity level and attain a status in the Divine Realm, you would naturally know how to descend to a lower realm. At that time, you merely need to spend some treasures to bribe others to help you descend.” Said Uncle Fu.Qin Yu was unable to refrain from smiling. Bribe?It would appear that interpersonal relationship was the same everywhere.Qin Yu suddenly remembered a question that he had. “Uncle Fu, didn’t you say that people who possessed the aura from the Divine Realm were incapable of entering the Bewitching God Temple? Once I ascend to the Divine Realm, even if I descend back to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm later, I reckon the Bewitching God Temple would still not allow me to enter it.”“Haha… you are wrong about that. Although the Bewitching God Temple blocks people with the Divine Realm’s aura from coming in, you’d best not forget that I am the housekeeper of the Bewitching God Temple. As my master is not present, I am the administer of the Bewitching God Temple. As long as I discover that it is you who has come, I would naturally give you access.” Said Uncle Fu.Hearing Uncle Fu saying that, Qin Yu also had a long sigh of relief.The treasures left behind by the number one artifact craftsman of the Divine Realm, even if he had to return back here after ascending to the Divine Realm, it would still be worth it. Qin Yu had heard that even the Godkings of the Divine Realm had asked Chehou Yuan to help before.“If I have the opportunity, I must definitely learn Chehou Yuan’s artifact forging skills.” Thought Qin Yu.“Qin Yu, with your current strength, it is impossible for you to open the Artifacts Palace and the Refining Flames Palace. As you’ve already been to the Front Palace, let me bring you to the remaining palace, the Transfer Palace.” Uncle Fu said those words and started walking.[ED(Robin): I want him to ask about the treasure that the Cyan Emperor obtained sooo badly :D]Qin Yu followed behind Uncle Fu. The two of them proceeded to walk toward the Transfer Palace.Unlike the Refining Flames Palace and the Artifacts Palace with closed doors, the Transfer Palace’s entrance was wide open. Furthermore, the entrance to the Transfer Palace was extremely wide. The entrance with a height of around merely ten meters actually possessed a width close to thirty meters.Qin Yu and Uncle Fu stepped past the entrance of the Transfer Palace.“This is?” Qin Yu looked to the Transfer Palace in confusion. The Transfer Palace was very strange. There was no room whatsoever. Only numerous thick and solid pillars were present. Furthermore, there were words written on each and every pillar.“There are over thirty pillars here, what are they for? These pillars are not as tall as the roof, they are not there to support the roof at all.” Qin Yu was a bit puzzled.What exactly are these thirty some erected pillars there for?Upon seeing Qin Yu’s expression, Uncle Fu opened his mouth and said. “Qin Yu, you ought to know that the higher level a cosmic space was, the more steady it is. My master possessed the strength of a High Level Heavenly Deity. In the Divine Realm, he was still incapable of breaking through the space barrier. However, with my master’s strength, he was able to easily create a space channel in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.”“That’s right. The space in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm is much more steady than the space in my hometown, the Purple Mystic Star.” Qin Yu said.The space of the Mortal Realm was something that even a level nine Heavenly Immortal could rip apart. However, the space in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, even if one were a level nine Immortal Emperor, one would still need to use a large amount of energy and a Divine Artifact to rip apart the space. Just by comparing that, the stability of the spaces was easily seen.“My master is a master at creating artifacts and puppets. Likewise, he is also extremely good at making space channels. These thirty eight pillars are thirty eight space channels that leads to thirty eight different cosmic spaces.” Said Uncle Fu dully.Qin Yu however, was greatly startled.Space channels that leads to thirty eight different cosmic spaces?“How, how is that possible?” Qin Yu found it hard to believe.“How is that not possible?” Said Uncle Fu indifferently. “For a cosmic space at the level of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. For example, if my master wanted to create a space tunnel that connected the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm with the Dinosaur Realm, he would be able to create that easily. After all, my master is a High Level Heavenly Deity. He is merely a step away from becoming a Godking.”Qin Yu could only nod.High Level Heavenly Deity. Their comprehension toward the spatial laws were definitely not something the current Qin Yu was able to imagine.“How do you make a space channel?” Qin Yu suddenly asked.“I am not sure myself. However, the space channels look resemble black holes.” Uncle Fu suddenly said.Qin Yu was stunned. “Black hole? How is that possible? I am most definitely unable to withstand against the gravitational force of a black hole.” Qin Yu knew very well how hard it was for him to resist the gravitational force of the Eighteen Emperor Level Dark Stars. Thus, there was no need for mention of the gravitational force of a black hole.“I merely said that they are similar to black holes. I never said that they are black holes. Their gravitational forces is many times smaller than a real black hole.” Said Uncle Fu with a slight smile.Only then did Qin Yu understood.Uncle Fu pointed at the erect pillars and said. “These pillars are not real entities. You are able to directly step into them. You’ll enter the space channel when you do. As for which cosmic space they lead to, they are written on each of the pillar.”“Thirty eight cosmic spaces. Truly amazing.” Qin Yu started checking out the pillars one by one.“Dinosaur Realm. Discovered Heavy Milky Spiritual Bead on the Flowing Cloud Star.”“Illusion Devil Realm. Discovered Five Clever Blocks Stone on the Sky Blue Star.”“Third Cosmic Space of the Mortal Realm. Discovered Black Ivory Spring Water on the Maywind Star.”On each of the pillar listed the cosmic space that it leads to as well as the precious material that was discovered on the cosmic space. Among them, those cosmic spaces of the same level as the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm all possessed names. However, the Mortal Realm’s cosmic spaces merely have numbers to indicate them. Evidently… there were too many Mortal Realms and they do not possess the same name.“My master purpose was finding peculiar materials. Thus, he naturally proceeded to search for them through each and every cosmic space. Constructing set space channels allows my master to travel about those cosmic spaces more effortlessly. Of these thirty eight cosmic spaces that these space channels leads to, twenty two of them are of the same level as the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. The other sixteen are all at the level of Mortal Realm.” Said Uncle Fu.At this moment, Qin Yu did not say anything.That was because he saw the words written on a pillar…. “Eleventh Cosmic Space of the Mortal Realm. Discovered Bipolar Spiritual Stone on the Purple Mystic Star.”
Chapter 461 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 34 – Returning HomeTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinPurple Mystic Star!Seeing those words, Qin Yu appeared to be struck by lightning. Scenes immediately flashed through his mind. The scene of when he was training as a child, the scene when he was chatting with his big brother and second brother happily in the hot spring, the scene when he was together with his Royal Father…Returning home!Qin Yu felt as if his entire soul was throbbing. The impulse to return home had instantly lifted up heavy waves in the calm ocean that was Qin Yu’s mind. Qin Yu was unable to hold down that urge to return home at all.“Uncle Fu, you said that I can reach the cosmic space listed in on the pillar just by entering it?” Qin Yu asked.“That’s right. Why? Are you planning on entering one?” Upon seeing Qin Yu’s expression, Uncle Fu asked.Qin Yu took a deep sigh. “The Purple Mystic Star is the place that I lived in my childhood. Although I have reached a level where I could rip apart space, it is still very hard for me to create a space channel that would allow me to reach the Mortal Realm. I still do not have the strength to do that.”“Fortunately, Senior Chehou has already refined such a space channel.” Qin Yu was overjoyed.“It is fine if you want to enter it. However, Qin Yu, you must definitely never forget to come back when you have the strength to open the entrance door to the Artifacts Palace.” Uncle Fu said, entrusting this task to Qin Yu.Qin Yu nodded.“Rest assured, I will definitely return.” After Qin Yu said those words, his gaze shifted toward the pillar in front of him.Qin Yu took a step and disappeared into the pillar.In an instant, everything changed.Qin Yu felt that his body was rapidly passing through space. The only thing that he could see was the chaotic space rifts. It was something that Qin Yu would frequently see when he ripped apart spaces. After about seven breaths’ time, Qin Yu felt that the scene in front of him had changed.The chaotic space rifts had disappeared. A boundless outer space appeared before Qin Yu.“The gravitational force here is truly small.” Qin Yu turned around. He saw that there was an unremarkable space tunnel behind him. From a glance, this space tunnel appeared to be a black hole. Merely, the gravitational force of this black hole was too small.Qin Yu understood that once he entered this black hole, he’ll be able to return back to the Bewitching God Temple.Qin Yu remembered this place in his heart.“The Purple Mystic Star ought to be not far away from here.” Qin Yu looked to the boundless outer space. He immediately started to spread out his Divine Awareness. Upon spearing out his Divine Awareness, Qin Yu discovered that the range of his Divine Awareness was much greater than the time when he was in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.Qin Yu had a very clear-headed sensation that as long as he just slightly spread a bit of his energy, he would easily be able to rip apart the cosmic space of this Mortal Realm.“The space here is indeed a level lower than the space of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.” Qin Yu waved his hand.Instantly, a over ten thousand meters long enormous space crack appeared before Qin Yu. Engulfing energy was being emitted by this space crack unceasingly. Merely, this engulfing energy did not affect Qin Yu in the slightest. After a short moment, this space crack was automatically restored by the cosmic space.“It would appear that what Zhou Xian did back then could not be considered as anything exceptional.” Gasped Qin Yu.[TL: have to check out who Zhou Xian was. Dude’s Li’er’s cousin. That scrub who killed tons of mortals and almost killed Qin Yu.]Back then, in front of Qin Yu, Zhou Xian was able to rip apart the space with a wave of his hand and easily extinguish everything in a location. The Qin Yu from back then was indeed shocked and stunned.However, from the way it seemed now, the space that Zhou Xian ripped apart and extinguished back then was merely the space of the Mortal Realm. The space of the Mortal Realm was the lowest level space. Ripping apart such a space was nothing exceptional. The current Qin Yu was also capable of easily accomplishing such a thing.“The Purple Mystic Star, its distance is indeed not far from here.” Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness had already covered the Purple Mystic Star that was located about half a galaxy away from where he stood.With a Greater Teleportation, Qin Yu disappeared from the cosmic outer space.Qin Yu stood on the Yellow Stone Star. He was looking at the enormous planet located not far from him…. the Purple Mystic Star. Back then, Qin Yu had trained on this Yellow Stone Star until he finally reached comprehension and attained the ‘Dark Star Realm’ of Stellar Transformation.The Purple Mystic Star, when looking at it from the faraway Yellow Stone Star, one could still see that it was filled with torrent-dashing flames and a white colored mist. Those are naturally the Two Great Extreme Regions of the Purple Mystic Star. Qin Yu’s figure was rapidly flying toward the Purple Mystic Star.As Qin Yu approached, he began to see the vast ocean of the Purple Mystic Star. He had also seen the Chaotic Astral Ocean located within the middle of the vast ocean. On the north of the Chaotic Astral Ocean was a small area of land. That was the Hidden Dragon Continent. The large area of land to the north of the Chaotic Astral Ocean was the Soaring Dragon Continent.[TL: Qianlong Continent → Hidden Dragon Continent. Tenglong Continent → Soaring Dragon Continent]As he looked at the various locations on the Purple Mystic Star, various scenes began to form in Qin Yu’s mind.The time when he was training on the Hidden Dragon Continent.The struggle and battles in the Seabed Cultivation Realm.The frantic burning by the Heavenly Flames on the Soaring Dragon Continent.Qin Yu stood in front of the Purple Mystic Star. However, he still did not go to the Purple Mystic Star. Only after a long time did Qin Yu manage to calm his disturbed frame of mind. He shook his head, forced a smile and sighed. “The closer to home, the more timid one gets.”Soon after, Qin Yu’s figure disappeared. Evidently, he had arrived at the Purple Mystic Star.Hidden Dragon Continent.It had already been around four thousand years since Qin Yu ascended to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. In the period of four thousand years, numerous dynasties have succeeded through the Hidden Dragon Continent. There was no dynasty that was capable of having perpetual glory.The Qin Dynasty of the olden days, the Han dynasty of the olden days, the Song dynasty of the olden days, they have all become things of memories.In the current Hidden Dragon Continent where mortals lived, a rare unity has occurred.The Tang Dynasty Empire!Li Shi, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty Empire fought for close to half of his lifetime. In the end, he managed to unify almost the entire Hidden Dragon Continent. With the exception… of the restricted area of humanity, the Great Wilderness, which belonged to Demon Beasts.The Tang Dynasty Empire had existed for over two hundred years. Currently, it is incomparably bustling. However, because it did not have any enemy, the hierarchy of the entire empire appeared to be decaying somewhat. The people sought for pleasure, beauty and longevity….This had also caused true cultivators to become even more esteemed.Tang Dynasty Empire. Broad Hill City.The Broad Hill City was a remarkable large city of the Tang Dynasty Empire. The most famous things in this city is the beautiful women and the fine foods. The beautiful women of this city have attracted a great amount of gifted scholars. The fine foods have attracted some nobilities and people of high standings.There was no need to mention how flourishing the Broad Hill City was. When night falls, lanterns were hung in all of the streets and alleyways of the Broad Hill City. The night was actually the most flourishing time for the Broad Hill City. People would walk about the street. There were many people wearing embroidered clothes. There were also servants following behind those people.“Master, where are we heading to today?” A servant asked respectfully.This master had a potbelly. He flicked his thin mustache with his pinkie finger. With a light smile, he said. “Today we shall go to the Moonlight Boat.”“Yes, master.” Said the servant respectfully.However, right at this moment…A brilliant light landed from the sky. That was a sharp sword!That master with the big belly’s expression immediately changed. He violently inhaled. That potbelly of his actually violently grew smaller. This master’s right fist had also grown red. Following a violent gale, this master violently smashed his fist forward.His fist actually created sonic boom as it flew forward.“Bang!”The longsword shattered. The assassin also spurt out a mouthful of blood before immediately escaping.The servant’s eyes shined with a cold light. He was about to chase after the assassin. However, the master coughed. Indifferently, he said. “Don’t chase. That man is merely a bronze assassin of the Heavenly Net. Even if you chase him, it’s still useless.”“Someone from the Heavenly Net?” The little servant’s expression also changed. “Master, then…”“Return first. Whoever it is that wanted to kill me, they’ve actually only hired a bronze medal assassin. They truly are belittling me a bit too much.” This master’s complexion turned cold. He immediately turned around and proceeded to leave.The scene that had just happened on the street was seen by many people in the restaurant beside the street.“Heavenly Net? The Heavenly Net is actually still in existence.” Muttered a black clothed youth who sat in the restaurant.This was precisely Qin Yu who had arrived on the Hidden Dragon Continent. Having returned to his hometown, Qin Yu did not immediately return home. Instead, he proceed to first get to know his hometown of four thousand years later first. Furthermore, Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness had covered the entire Purple Mystic Star. On the Purple Mystic Star, only his second brother, Qin Zheng, still remained.As for his Royal Father Qin De, his big brother Qin Feng, Feng Yuzi and the others, none of them remained on the Purple Mystic Star. Even his little sister from back then, Little Lu, also disappeared from the Purple Mystic Star.Qin Yu knew that the cultivation speed of his brothers and them could still be considered relatively fast. Adding on the treasures that he had left behind, the four thousand years was sufficient for them to ascend to the Immortal Realm. As for his second brother Qin Zheng, the fact that he still remained in the Mortal Realm now was also something that Qin Yu had anticipated. After all, the second brother Qin Zheng was the one with the slowest cultivation speed among the three brothers.“That man from earlier was a bronze medal assassin from the Heavenly Net. Never had I expected that the hidden expert Boss Wang actually possessed such a strength.” Some of the sons of nobilities in the restaurant started chatting.“Only a bronze medal assassin. It would appear whoever it was that wanted Boss Wang dead was unwilling to spend enough money. If they were to have requested for a ‘bone ash’ assassin from the Heavenly Net, who would possibly be able to escape?” Another son of nobility said.Qin Yu was shocked upon hearing that.Bone ash assassin?Back when he was still in the Mortal Realm, it seemed that there were no such rank called ‘Bone Ash’ among the assassins.“The changes of four thousand years is truly great.” Qin Yu lightly sighed. He then drank the wine in his cup. After all these years, the wine brewing skills of the Hidden Dragon Continent had actually increased greatly.“Brother Li, I’ve heard that the eldest daughter of the number one martial family, the Qin clan, Miss Qin Yutong was about to arrive to the Broad Hill City. Do you all know of it?” Said a son of nobility.“Brother Guo, I’ve already known about this. If I didn’t, why would I rush to this Broad Hill City? Furthermore, I know that Miss Qin Yutong ought to be arriving tomorrow.” Said that Brother Li.“Miss Qin Yutong is the number one beauty amongst the martial world. If anyone were to be able to marry her, then not only would he obtain a beauty, he would also be able to learn the top martial techniques of the Qin clan.”“That’s of course. The Qin clan has existed and inherited over three thousand years of martial techniques. There is absolutely no need for us to suspect of their strength.”Immediately, a group of people started chatting around the topic of this ‘Qin Yutong.’Qin Yu instead grew suspicious.“For this Qin clan to be able to exist and inherit over three thousand years of martial techniques, this ought to have something to do with second brother.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart. However, according to Qin Yu’s thoughts, he did not believe that his clan would only be a mere martial arts clan.Furthermore, after merely inspecting with his Divine Awareness.In his family’s headquarters, the Flame Capital City, other than his second brother, Qin Zheng, there was also many Dujie level experts and Loose Immortal level experts. With such strength, the Qin clan was strong enough to compete against some of the cultivation sects of the Soaring Dragon Continent.[TL: Dujie = about to undergo tribulation]On the second day, Qin Yu also slightly observed that Qin Yutong. She was indeed an outstanding beauty. However, he did not care too much about her. Soon after, Qin Yu started roaming around the cities of the Hidden Dragon Continent.After three days.Qin Yu arrived at the Flame Capital City.Flame Capital City was the headquarters of the Qin clan. Even after all these years, it is still the capital!Although the dynasties of the Hidden Dragon Continent changed many times, all of the dynasties knew of one thing… there was a great hidden clan in the Hidden Dragon Continent, the Qin Clan. This clan possessed the strength to instantly destroy an entire dynasty.Therefore, in all these years, the Flame Capital City has always been under the control of the Qin clan. The Prince Who Pacified the East’s Mansion from back then has already been renamed the Virtue Garden. In the four thousand years, the master of the Virtue Garden had always been from the Qin clan.Qin Yu stood on the outside of this Virtue Garden by himself.“I, have returned.” Said Qin Yu softly.Outside of the gate of the Virtue Garden’s Mansion House. Other than Qin Yu, there was no one else who dared approach it. Whenever someone approaches the Virtue Garden’s Mansion House, the guards of the Virtue Garden would always ‘coldly’ stare at them. However, with Qin Yu standing there, the guards instead seemed to act as if they didn’t see Qin Yu.Furthermore, even some of the people that were walking by acted as if they didn’t see Qin Yu. Whenever lights shined on the area that Qin Yu stood, they would automatically distort.Qin Yu’s comprehension regarding the spatial laws was sufficient enough for him to distort the space and make it so that no others can see him. It might be that he was unable to accomplish such a thing so easily in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. However, the space of the Mortal Realm was extremely simple and effortless for Qin Yu to control.At this moment, a father and daughter walked by. The woman was wearing a veil. The father was instead wearing plain and simple clothes.Even though the woman was wearing a veil, Qin Yu was still able to see through her appearance. This woman was precisely that so called number one beauty of the martial world that Qin Yu had met yesterday, Qin Yutong.“Father, why did the clan master gather everyone from the branch family over?” A twenty years old or so beautiful young lady said to the black clothed middle aged man beside him via voice transmission.This middle aged man responded back indifferently via voice transmission. “Don’t ask. Our clan master has already dispatched the order for us to gather three days ago. He most definitely has something important to tell us.”This pair of father and daughter were both using the voice transmission that internal experts were proficient in. With Qin Yu’s strength, he was able to easily hear their conversation.The guards of the Virtue Garden’s Mansion House stopped this pair of father and daughter. This pair of father and daughter displayed their invitation card. Immediately, the guards allowed them entrance.“Branch families? Never had I expected for second brother to separate our clan into different branches. However, this is also good.” Qin Yu was calmly looking from the entrance of the mansion house. In merely a day, many people had displayed their invitation cards and entered into the Virtue Garden’s Mansion House. These people had all come here either by themselves or with one or two people.“Master, are you not coming in?” A voice sounded in Qin Yu’s mind.Mind Voice Transmission. It was the Ink Qilin. Only the Spiritual Beast that possessed a soul connection with Qin Yu, Ink Qilin, knew that Qin Yu have arrived.“Ink Qilin, you’ve told the news of my return to my second brother, right?” Asked Qin Yu through Mind Voice Transmission.
Chapter 462 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 35 – Second Brother Qin ZhengTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin“Yes, that’s right master. Qin Zheng already knows that you have returned. That is the reason why he has gathered all of the Qin clan branch families to the Virtue Garden.” Said the Ink Qilin extremely sincerely.“It’s fine for my second brother to know that I have returned. I will go and meet my second brother later. For now, I shall first go and check out what the descendants of my Qin clan are like.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.“Yes, master.” Answered the Ink Qilin.Immediately afterwards, Qin Yu calmly walked through the gate of the Virtue Garden. With Qin Yu’s comprehension toward the spatial laws, how could those guards that are not even Heavenly Immortal level possibly be able to see him?Qin Yu was walking step by step on the familiar hallway.“This is the place where my big brother used to live in.” Qin Yu looked to a courtyard manor. “However, after four thousand years, this place has been rebuilt countless times.” Qin Yu was able to sense that the tiles and bricks have been refurbished.“This place has actually became a prohibited area where others are not allowed to enter.” Qin Yu smiled.After strolling through the entire Virtue Garden, the mansion house of the Prince Who Pacified the East from back then, Qin Yu discovered… the residences that he, his big brother as well as his Royal Father lived in were all guarded. Outsiders were not allowed entrance into those places at all.“Second brother’s cultivation speed is indeed slow.” Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness clearly detected his second brother’s current strength… Middle Stage Kongming. He had only reached Middle Stage Kongming after four thousand years. This sort of cultivation speed was indeed something that would cause one to be speechless.[TL: Kongming = Enlightened stage.]After returning to his hometown, Qin Yu’s mood was very tranquil.The courtyard manors that used to be residences that guests of his family stayed in have now turned into places that some people from the Qin clan branch families stayed in. All of these people were people standing at the apex of the Tang Dynasty Empire. However, in the headquarters of their clan, each and every one of them were extremely modest. That was because all of these branch family members knew that… their status were all obtained through the help of the main Qin clan. Furthermore, the Qin clan’s true strength were extremely terrifying.Qin Yu walked to the entrance of a courtyard manor.“Dad, are we not going to be able to see younger brother in the future?” A familiar voice sounded.“It’s that Qin Yutong.” With a movement of his foot, Qin Yu entered into the courtyard manor.At this moment, Qin Yutong was chatting with her father.“Yutong, do not think too much about it. This is the order of the sole existing Utmost Supreme Second Elder of our Qin clan. Not only our branch family, the other branch families have also sent over the elites of their younger generations.” Qin Yutong’s father Qin Fulan sighed helplessly and said.Qin Yu was slightly startled.The sole existing Utmost Supreme Second Elder?“I understand.” A trace of helplessness appeared on Qin Yutong’s face. She then looked to her father. “Father, have you seen the Utmost Supreme Second Elder before?”“I have once. You too ought to know of the identity of the Utmost Supreme Second Elder. He is the true first Emperor of our Qin Royal Dynasty from back then.” Qin Fulan gasped in admiration.A trace of adoration appeared in Qin Yutong’s eyes. She said. “Of course I know about the Utmost Supreme Second Elder. Not only him, I also know of the Utmost Supreme First Elder. Back then, he led our Qin Royal Dynasty’s army and swept across the entire continent unobstructed. Furthermore, the most powerful was the Utmost Supreme Third Elder. I have heard that the Utmost Supreme Third Elder’s strength pieces through the heavens. He was the first among our Qin clan to ascend to the Immortal Realm.”“Not only that. Utmost Supreme Third Elder’s strength was even more frightening than what you have imagined. The reason the powers of the Chaotic Astral Sea is so considerate of our Qin clan, that too is because of the Utmost Supreme Third Elder.” Qin Fulan said after a gasp of admiration. “I have grown up hearing about the achievements of the Utmost Supreme Third Elder. Sigh, he is the true genius.”“Aren’t I the same? I have also grown up hearing about the achievements of the Utmost Supreme Third Elder. He is the first person in the Hidden Dragon Continent that had reached the Xiantian stage using external martial techniques. In a mere twenty years, he entered the cultivation world… I truly didn’t dare to believe that he managed to enter the Xiantian stage using external martial techniques. Oh how much pain and suffering he must’ve gone through? Nowadays, those martial arts circle’s sons of nobilities would come to me and show off. Each and every one of them managed to attain their status through the help of their status. Yet they think that they’re extraordinary. When comparing to the Utmost Supreme Third Elder, those people are truly…” Qin Yutong have traces of disdain in her eyes.[TL: Xiantian = Innate.]Qin Yu who had been listening from the side was unable to refrain his laughter.So it turns out that this Utmost Supreme Third Elder was actually he himself!“Unfortunately reaching the Xiantian stage through external martial techniques was truly too difficult. I have heard that in every generation, our clan would select ten outstanding disciples to train in the external techniques. However, in the past four thousand years, almost everyone was unable to continue to move forward the moment they reached the pinnacle of external martial arts technique.Only one have managed to successfully trained in the external techniques, merely your uncle Qin Shitian…. but, I’ve heard that the martial technique that your Utmost Supreme Third Elder practices is extremely powerful!” Said Qin Fulan.“Uncle Qin Shitian. I know of him. Each and every disciple of our Qin clan revere him. He is the sole successor to the Utmost Supreme Third Elder after all these years.” Qin Yutong gasped in admiration.Upon hearing this, Qin Yu was startled.There’s a successor to the ‘Stellar Transformation’ martial technique? Qin Yu immediately covered the entire Virtue Garden with his Divine Awareness. Back then, Qin Yu merely spread out his Divine Awareness to search for his second brother and had not carefully observed the other people.However this time around, Qin Yu managed to easily detect the person training in the ‘Stellar Transformation’ martial technique.“Early stage Nebula stage. To be able to reach this stage in about forty years could be considered as being pretty good.” Qin Yu instantly discovered that man called Qin Shitian.“Yutong, when are you going to get married? Dad cannot wait any longer. To be honest, there are still some that are pretty good among the people that are chasing after you.” Said Qin Fulan while smiling.Qin Yutong shook her head. “I’m not thinking about it for now. I do not seek for my future husband to possess the perseverance and talent at the level of the Utmost Supreme Third Elder. I merely want him to possess a tenth of the perseverance and talent of the Utmost Supreme Third Elder. Those sons of nobilities…”Qin Yu was startled. He then started laughing. “Amusing, amusing.”“Who are you?” Qin Yutong was shocked to find that there was actually a black clothed youth standing not far away.Qin Fulan also turned around. Seeing this black clothed youth, he immediately said humbly. “Are you also a descendant of my Qin clan?” Qin Fulan knew that…. even if one were a powerful cultivator, they would also not be able to easily charge into the the Virtue Garden of the Qin clan. That was because there was a Clan Protecting Divine Beast within the Virtue Garden. The information regarding the Clan Protecting Divine Beast was something that practically everyone from the Qin clan knew about.“That’s right, I am from the Qin clan.” Qin Yu nodded and said while smiling. His gaze shifted to Qin Yutong. “Little girl, sometimes, you must not possess too high of a demand for your husband. It is all fine as long as he fits.”“Little girl?” Qin Yutong opened her eyes wide. “How much older are you compared to me?”“I am much much older than you.” Said Qin Yu with a light smile.At this moment, Qin Fulan’s heart was beating. He was able to sense the special aura that Qin Yu radiates. That is the kind of aura of someone who have assimilated with the heaven and earth. Even though he had met the Utmost Supreme Second Elder only once, he could also sense that the Utmost Supreme Second Elder was inferior compared to the man in front of them.“He might be a certain Loose Immortal expert of my Qin clan.” Though Qin Fulan in his heart. In the past four thousand years, there have been quite a few Loose Immortal experts in the Qin clan.And right at this moment, another man walked into the courtyard manor.“Qin Fulan.” The person who arrived said indifferently.“Lord Emissary.” Upon seeing the person who have arrived, Qin Fulan immediately bowed. Even Qin Yutong bowed.In the Qin clan there are Clan Protector Emissaries. The Clan Protector Emissaries are divided into three levels. The gold clothed Clan Protector Emissaries are the lowest level. The blue clothed Clan Protector Emissaries are a slighter higher level. The highest level was the black clothed Clan Protector Emissaries.Even the lowest level gold clothed Clan Protector Emissaries, their strength was at the very least at the Nascent Soul stage.[TL: Yuanying → Nascent Soul.]“Clan master has ordered, in two hours, everyone is to be in the Maple Evening Hall to attend in the banquet.” Said that gold clothed Emissary. Immediately after, he turned and left. It was as if he didn’t see Qin Yu at all.Only when the Emissary left did Qin Fulan and Qin Yutong raise their body back up.“Eh, how come Lord Emissary seemed to not have seen that person at all?” Qin Yutong looked to Qin Yu with a confused expression. If Qin Yu’s status was high, then the gold clothed Emissary would at the very least salute to him. If Qin Yu’s status was to be lower, then he would at the very least salute to the gold clothed Emissary. However, the gold clothed Emissary did not even look to Qin Yu the entire time. This was something that brought about confusion to others.Qin Yu walked to a stone bench on the side and sat down. He said. “If I want him to see me, then he’ll be able to see me. If I don’t want him to see me, then he won’t be able to see me.” Soon after, Qin Yu flipped his hand around and took out a wine jar. He drank a mouthful. “Mn, the wine from the Flame Capital City is the best afterall.”Qin Yutong and Qin Fulan looked to each other. However, they were unable to say anything.Standing in front of others, if he wanted others to see him then they will, if he didn’t want others to see him then they won’t, is there such a remarkable ability? That was something that neither of them have ever heard of before.Qin Yu continued to drink in the courtyard manor happily.Two hours later.Inside the Maple Evening Hall.At this moment, a large number of people from various great Qin branch families were gathered in the Maple Evening Hall. These people have covered several tens of tables. One could easily imagine how many people there were. However, at this moment, none of the people have moved their chopsticks. That was because the Clan Elder had yet to arrive.Qin Yu was also seated on a corner table of the Maple Evening Hall.The Qin clan merely checked the invitation cards of everyone outside the entrance. They did not do any checking afterwards. That was because everyone knew… that there is no one in the Hidden Dragon Continent that would dare come to stir troubles for the Qin clan.Because of the fact that for some branch families only one person come while for other families there might be two or three people, the amount of food that was prepared was still extremely big. With Qin Yu joining the rest, the other people had thought that Qin Yu was also someone from the branch families.“The Clan Master has arrived!” Said a gold clothed Emissary in the front of the Maple Evening Hall. Immediately, everyone stood up.The current Clan Master of the Qin clan walked in from the back hall followed by four blue clothed Emissaries. This Clan Master’s eyes were filled with calmness. Qin Yu nodded in his heart. The strength of this Clan Master is not strong. He is merely a middle stage Nascent Soul stage expert.“Everyone, today is a day of great happiness!” The first word from this Clan Master had caused all of the branch clansmen to become stunned.That was because everyone remembered that… not long ago, the Utmost Supreme Second Elder had personally ordered for all of the branch families to dispatch the elites of their younger generations to the Virtue Garden so that they could be hidden all over the continent in order to keep the bloodline of the Qin clan intact. At the same time, he claimed that… the Qin clan is faced with an enormous calamity. All of the branch families were alerted by that. However, in a blink of an eye, this Clan Master actually stated that today is a day of great happiness.Although they were shocked, the branch clansmen did not grow noisy at all.“Everyone, please rest assured. The Utmost Supreme Second Elder had personally ordered for all of the elite younger generations that was dispatched all over the continent to be returned to each and every branch family. Furthermore, the Utmost Supreme Second Elder… would soon come to the Maple Evening Hall.” Said the Clan Master loudly.No matter how calm they were, the branch clansmen still started to make a racket.“Utmost Supreme Second Elder will be coming? Am I mishearing things?”“For real? Utmost Supreme Second Elder will be coming?”Even Qin Fulan had only met the Utmost Supreme Second Elder once. And that was because he was the leader of a Qin branch family. Amongst those sitting in the hall, there are less than ten who have even seen the Utmost Supreme Second Elder.“Quiet.” A voice sounded from the side entrance of the Maple Evening Hall. A black clothed Emissary had walked in.Immediately, everyone had grew silent.The legendary Clan Protector Emissaries of the Qin clan were separated into gold clothed, blue clothed and black clothed. This black clothed level was the highest level of the Emissaries. Even the weakest among them have reached the Kongming stage. The stronger ones have even reached the Dujie stage.With three black clothed Emissaries leading the road, a scholarly youth wearing a light yellow colored gown walked in.“Utmost Supreme Second Elder.” The Clan Master saluted respectfully.The Qin clan changed its Clan Master once every hundred years. However, the position of the Three Utmost Supreme Elders were everlasting. Any one of the Three Utmost Supreme Elders possessed strength that surpassed the Clan Master by far.“Utmost Supreme Second Elder.” The people sitting below have finally woke back up to reality. Each and every one of them respectfully bowed.Only a single person did not bow, it was Qin Yu.“Second brother.” Qin Yu merely slightly nodded.Qin Zheng saw Qin Yu. A pleasantly surprised expression erupted from his eyes. However, Qin Zheng was also an Emperor in the past and had also controlled the Qin clan for four thousand years. In an instant, he held back his emotions and also nodded to Qin Yu.The couple Clan Protector Emissaries saw that Qin Yu did not bow and was about to immediately shout at him angrily.“Do not be impulsive.” Qin Zheng’s Spiritual Awareness Voice Transmission sounded in the minds of these couple people.When all of the branch families lifted their heads back up, Qin Zheng said with a light smile. “Everyone, a while earlier, our Qin clan was faced with a calamity. However now, the calamity has passed. I am currently deploying all of the elite younger generations. I believe that within a month, they would all be returned to their respective families. Everyone could also be at ease now.”All of the great branch families heave a sigh of relief upon hearing those words from the Utmost Supreme Second Elder.A while back, the calamity have caused all of the branch families to become frightened.“Everyone, please enjoy the banquet.” After Qin Zheng finished his words, he proceeded to walk down toward the banquet hall.Those people, upon seeing Qin Zheng walking down toward them, were all excited speechless. Qin Zheng merely nodded and smiled. He then walked to Qin Yu’s table and looked at Qin Yu.“Second brother, your administration is indeed pretty good. There must be more than ten thousand descendants of our Qin clansmen now, right?” Qin Yu stood up.“To be exact, the Qin clan, when all is added up, numbers over eighty thousand people now.” Qin Zheng said.“Qin Yu walked to Qin Zheng. “Second brother!”“Third brother.” Qin Zheng also looked straight at Qin Yu.Qin Yutong who sat on the same table as Qin Yu heard the conversation of the two and grew dumbstruck.“Everyone, please do not spread what you have heard today.” Qin Zheng glanced at everyone present in the Maple Evening Hall.Soon after, Qin Yu and Qin Zheng left the Maple Evening Hall together.“Dad. Am, am I mishearing things?” Qin Yutong looked to her father. Qin Fulan also found it to be hard to believe. “If I am not mishearing things, then that person is the legendary Utmost Supreme Third Elder.”“Him, the Utmost Supreme Third Elder?” Qin Yutong instantly recalled about talking about the conditions for her husband in front of Qin Yu. She immediately grew red.All of the leaders of the numerous branch families in the Maple Evening Hall were excited. The Utmost Supreme Third Elder had returned? What sort of calamity would there be then? Everyone was excited to the peak. Everyone was at ease now.To ease the minds of everyone present, that was the reason why Qin Yu called Qin Zheng second brother in front of everyone present.With his strength, there was no need for him to be secretive at all.
Chapter 463 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 36 – Qin Yu’s ReturnTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinInside a secluded courtyard manor was a simple and unadorned stone table. On top of the stone table was six or seven small dishes and two jugs of wine.Qin Yu and Qin Zheng were sitting around the table and chatting with each other.“Little Yu, fortunately you have come back this time around. Otherwise, our Qin clan would definitely suffer serious injury.” A trace of smile was on Qin Zheng’s face. His mind had also grew a lot more relaxed.Ever since the Ink Qilin told Qin Zheng of Qin Yu’s return, Qin Zheng had grown completely relieved.“Second brother, what exactly had happened?” Qin Yu asked.Qin Zheng smiled and said. “Ever since you’ve ascended, our Qin clan have been slowly expanding. Furthermore, the Peng Devil Island of the Chaotic Astral Ocean have looked after us greatly. This had allowed our Qin clan to progress steadily. However, several tens of years ago, the Peng Devil Island’s Island Master, Lian Chong, ascended.”“Lian Chong?” The scene of the time when he saved Lian Chong from his eighth Loose Devil Tribulation appeared in Qin Yu’s mind.“That’s right, ever since Zong Jue ascended, Lian Chong’s mother became the new Island Master of the Peng Devil Island. After Lian Chong’s mother ascended, Lian Chong’s father became the new Island Master. With the support from his parents and adding on the fact that his own strength was also pretty good, Lian Chong became the Island Master of the Peng Devil Island after his father.” Said Qin Zheng while smiling. “Lian Chong had always remembered your benevolence in saving his life. Thus, he is usually relatively concerned about the wellbeing of our Qin clan. This had allowed our Qin clan to become very stable and without any calamity befalling it.”Qin Yu nodded.“If I have the opportunity, I would definitely go and thank Lian Chong.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.“However, ever since Lian Chong ascended to the Devil Realm, trouble has befallen our Qin clan.” Said Qin Zheng helplessly.“What kind of trouble?” Qin Yu asked.Qin Zheng said helplessly. “Do you still remember that before you ascend to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, you had left behind some Immortal Artifacts in the Qin clan and even deemed one of the Top Quality Immortal Artifacts sets among them as the Inherited Treasure of our Qin clan?”“Right, I do remember that. Back then, I have obtained all those Immortal Artifacts in the Ni Yang’s Realm. Thus, leaving behind some for the clan is only natural.” Qin Yu remembered it clearly.Back then, after Qin Yu successfully cultivated in the Yellow Stone Star and returned back home, during the period of time when he stayed at home, Qin Yu had arranged the plans for the Qin clan. That set of Top Quality Immortal Artifacts was composed of a Top Quality Immortal Armor and a Top Quality Immortal Sword.“We knew of the principle of not showing off one’s valuables. That set of Top Quality Immortal Artifacts was something that we had never told outsiders about. Only Lian Chong who was benevolent toward us knew of it… however, we suspect that Lian Chong might have told about them to some of the experts of the Peng Devil Island. The current Peng Devil Island’s Island Master have started to long for our set of Top Quality Immortal Artifacts.” Said Qin Zheng helplessly.Killing intent shined through Qin Yu’s eyes.To those that threatened his clansmen, especially a threat at the level of wiping out the entire clan, it was best to take care of it as soon as possible.“However, as Lian Chong’s family of three were three successive Island Masters of the Peng Devil Island, Lian Chong’s influence toward the Peng Devil Island was still very great. That newly appointed Island Master of the Peng Devil Island also would not dare to come killing at us directly. He feared that he would be opposed by some of the elders of the Peng Devil Island.” Said Qin Zheng with a smile.Qin Yu was able to guess that.For such a large power like the Peng Devil Island, if one does not possess an unequalled strength like that of Zong Jue, then when one becomes the Island Master of the Peng Devil Island, they definitely have to take into consideration of the elders and experts of the Peng Devil Island.The Lian family of three were all Peng Devil Island’s Island Masters. Thus, Lian Chong likely would’ve also entrusted some elders before he ascended. Hence, that newly appointed Island Master naturally would not dare to openly come and threaten the Qin clan.“Thus, that new Island Master had told about this information to a single person, the current controller of the Great Wilderness, a twelve tribulation Loose Demon with the name Xiu Ku. This Xiu Ku is extremely powerful!” Said Qin Zheng solemnly.Qin Yu smiled indifferently.A twelve Tribulation Loose Demon was the equivalent to a level nine Heavenly Demon. A person of such strength would only dare to proclaim himself hegemon in the Mortal Realm. In front of the current Qin Yu…. such level nine Heavenly Demons, even if ten thousand of them were to appear, Qin Yu would still likely be able to exterminate them all with a single wave of his hand. After all, they were of two completely different standards.“A twelve tribulation Loose Demon. Back then, the controller of the Great Wilderness, Yu Lan, also tried to steal our Qin clan’s Immortal Artifacts and lost his life. Could it be that this newly appointed controller of the Great Wilderness didn’t take lesson from his predecessor?” Said Qin Yu cold and matter-of-factly.Qin Zheng shook his head and said. “It is very normal. That twelve tribulation Loose Demon is a High Level Divine Beast. In the entire Chaotic Astral Ocean and the Dragon Clan, there had not been any newly emerged Super Divine Beast. In this world, there is truly no one capable of defeating that new controller of the Great Wilderness.”“When there are no tigers in the mountain, the monkey would become king.” Qin Yu said with a light smile.QIn Yu still remembered the years back then before he ascended to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. With the Five Clawed Golden Dragon Fang Tian, the Golden Winged Great Peng Bird Zong Jue as well as the emissaries from the upper realm descending. With all these experts present fighting for the treasures within the Ni Yang’s Realm.At that time, even someone of Yu Liang’s ability was merely a nobody.Back then, Qin Yu was merely at the Dacheng stage. Yet, he was competing with those people. Yet now, Qin Yu’s strength was comparable to that of Deities. However, he had allowed his clan to be humiliated by such a nobody! Qin Yu spread out his Divine Awareness and covered the entire Purple Mystic Star.“What did the two of them say?” Qin Yu looked to his second brother.Qin Zheng said. “At the beginning, they merely threatened us and I did not pay attention to them at all. However, not long ago, those two simultaneously sent people to display me a message. They wanted me to hand over that set of Top Quality Immortal Artifacts within a year. Otherwise, they would not give us face and directly attack us.”“It would appear that they also have things they were concerned about.” Said Qin Yu with a light smile.Qin Zheng nodded and said. “Of course they are concerned. The new Peng Devil Island’s Island Master as well as new controller of the Great Wilderness were afraid that they’ll encounter retaliation when they reach the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. After all, with Zong Jue and the Lian family, they are definitely stronger than them.”“If these two people were to attack, they would definitely kill all of our Qin clansmen.” Sneered Qin Yu. “They would definitely wipe out our clan completely.”Qin Yu was able to understand the mindset of these two people.After all, the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was boundless. From the way these two people thought… even if the Qin clansmen in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm knew of this information, it was also highly unlikely that they would be able to find them in the boundless Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Only because of that did these two people dared to do such a thing.“The two of them never anticipated that, Little Yu, you’d return to the Mortal Realm.” Said Qin Zheng while smiling.Ever since he knew of Qin Yu’s return, Qin Zheng had been very happy the entire time.“Well then, let’s not talk about these two people anymore. It’ll only dampen the mood.” Qin Yu shook his head and said. Immediately after, he said. “Second brother, when did big brother and Royal Father ascend to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm? Is there a way for me to contact them?”Qin Zheng shook his head. “In the past four thousand years, there were over ten people from our Qin clan that had ascended to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Big brother was the first to ascend. Royal Father and Uncle Feng were instead pretty late. However, they both managed to successfully ascend.”“I’ve noticed that we have quite many Loose Immortals in our Qin Clan. What’s with that?” Qin Yu asked, puzzled.With the Immortal Artifacts that the Qin clan possessed, it shouldn’t be hard for them to ascend.“That was a regulation set by me. Only a few people were qualified to bring the Immortal Artifacts into the Immortal Realm. The rest of the people must rely on their own strength. Even if they were to fail and become Loose Immortals, they would still be able to increase the strength of our Qin clan in the Mortal Realm.” Said Qin Zheng as he ate the food.“That is good too. However, it’s also hard for me to find my Royal Father and big brother.” Qin Yu frowned.Trying to find his Royal Father in the boundless Immortal Realm was indeed a difficult matter.After all, with the range of his current Divine Awareness, trying to search through the entire Immortal Realm was not a simple task. There were close to twenty star fields in the Immortal Realm and several hundred galaxies.“Second brother, do you know anyone who is about to ascend to the Immortal Realm?” Qin Yu suddenly asked.That was because Qin Yu knew that if someone were to ascend to the Immortal Realm, he would ascend to the same location others from the same planet have ascended to. This holds true for also the Devil Realm.Qin Yu believed that with his Royal Father’s strength, it was likely that he was still on the same location he had ascended to. Even if he had left, he likely wouldn’t have left far away.“Ascend?” Qin Zheng muttered.Suddenly, Qin Zheng’s eyes shined. He said. “There is a person from our Qin clan that has reached the middle Dujie stage. I suspect that he’ll soon be undergoing the tribulation.”Qin Yu shook his head. “That’s too slow. Reaching the Dujie middle stage would still require one to undergo the tribulation. Only after reaching the Dacheng stage would one be able to ascend. That’s too slow…. are there any Dacheng stage experts?”Qin Zheng said helplessly. “Our Qin clan’s history is too short. The number of experts we possess isn’t too overwhelming. We truly do not have anyone who has reached the Dacheng stage. I think… only in the Soaring Dragon Continent would there be someone who fits your requirement.”“Soaring Dragon Continent?” Qin Yu suddenly smiled.“I am truly foolish. There are sects in the Soaring Dragon Continent that are capable of communicating with the Immortal Realm directly. They definitely know… which planet they would ascend to. Won’t it do if I just go and ask them about it?” Qin Yu grew relaxed.“In that case, everything’s good. Come, Little Yu, drink.” Qin Zheng raised his wine cup for a toast.Qin Yu also smiled and raised his wine cup to toast.The two brothers toasted and drank their wine in a single gulp.The second day.Within the boundless Great Wilderness located on the East of the Hidden Dragon Continent, the new controller of the Great Wilderness, Xiu Ku, was currently in his back hall. He was lying on a chair and enjoying the massage from beautiful demon foxes.“You should be Xiu Ku, right?” A voice suddenly sounded from nowhere.Xiu Ku who was originally dozing off and enjoying the massage violently opened his eyes. Only now did he notice that there was a man standing in the middle of the back hall. For some unknown reason, he was unable to see clearly the facial appearance of this person no matter how hard he try. Even the light that grew closer to that man appeared to be swallowed.“Who are you?” Xiu Ku’s expression changed.“Didn’t you want the Top Quality Immortal Artifacts of the Qin clan? If I were to give you a Divine Artifact, would you want that?” Said that man.Xiu Ku took two gulps of saliva. He looked to the two Demon Fox maids beside him. As if they were stunned, the two maids were unable to move.“You two Demon Foxes, listen carefully. Tell the remaining people of the Great Wilderness that I am taking your new controller, Xiu Ku and that the previous controller of the Great Wilderness, Yu Liang had longed for my Qin clan’s Top Quality Immortal Artifacts and ended up dying. Never had I expected that you, Xiu Ku, also dared to long for them. I reckon you’ve also prepared for the same ending as Yu Liang.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.Only at this moment did Xiu Ku know who it was that had come.“No, I wouldn’t dare….” Said Xiu Ku in great fear. However, he had merely said a few words before he discovered that he was unable to utter a sound no matter how hard he tried to speak.“Have the two of you heard that clearly? Have the Great Wilderness prepare to select a new controller for the Great Wilderness. If they do not wish to suffer the same fate as the previous two controllers of the Great Wilderness, then they can feel free to come to the Qin clan and seize their Immortal Artifacts. I would welcome them at any time.”After Qin Yu finished saying those words, his figure instantly disappeared.Xiu Ku had also disappeared alongside Qin Yu.Only after Qin Yu disappeared did those two Demon Fox maids manage to regain their ability to move. At this moment, the two of them started shouting in dismay. Immediately, three eleven tribulation Loose Demons have rushed in.“Where is his Lordship the controller?” One of the three enormous demons shouted.The two Demon Fox maids possessed deathly pale complexions. One of the two said stammeringly. “He was arrested. That man said, said, to tell the lords to select another new controller.”The complexion of those three enormous demons with status second only to Xiu Ku all changed.“That man, had also said, that if, if, your lordships want to, to follow the footsteps of the previous two controllers, then go ahead and go to the Qin clan to seize their Immortal Artifact.” Said the Demon Fox main stammeringly.The three enormous demons glanced at each other.“Qin clan, there’s such an expert in the Hidden Dragon Continent’s Qin clan?” The three great demons have all grown silent. To capture a twelve tribulation High Level Divine Beast without a word or movement, such strength had already brought fear to them.Not only the Great Wilderness, the same sort of thing had happened in the Peng Devil Island.Merely, compared to the Great Wilderness, the spectacle in the Peng Devil Island was even greater.That was because the new Island Master of the Peng Devil Island was having a meeting with the six great elders and some of the important high level experts. However, Qin Yu appeared during the meeting.At the moment when Qin Yu appeared, all of the people in the Peng Devil Island were shocked to find that they were unable to move.“Lian Chong is a close friend of mine, I shall give him face. This time around, it was merely your new Island Master that were thinking of taking advantage of my Qin clan. Thus, I will only take him with me. Well then, everyone, continue your meeting. Go and casually select a new Island Master.”Just like that, Qin Yu brought the new Island Master of the Peng Devil Island and left with a teleportation.All of those eleven tribulation and even twelve tribulation experts of the Peng Devil Island were shocked to find out that… they were unable to even see Qin Yu’s facial appearance. In front of Qin Yu, they were as helpless as ants.Regardless of whether it was the Peng Devil Island or the Great Wilderness, both of them selected a new Island Master as a new controller. At the same time, everyone engraved this day in his or her minds.Who exactly was this supreme expert that had suddenly appeared? This brought fear to everyone.Flame Capital City. Inside the Virtue Garden’s Mansion House.“Second brother, how shall we take care of these two? You decide.” Qin Yu and Qin Zheng both sat on top of chairs. As for the controller of the Great Wilderness, Xiu Ku, and that Island Master of the Peng Devil Island, Lan Tie, they were unable to move in the slightest.Qin Zheng checked these two people out.The controller of the Great Wilderness Xiu Ku and the Island Master of the Peng Devil Island Lan Tie were both filled with fear.Qin Yu was too powerful!In front of Qin Yu, the two of them were incapable of even killing themselves. They were not at the same level at all.“Controller of the Great Wilderness Xiu Ku, what is his true form?” Qin Zheng suddenly asked. “I’ve heard that the new Island Master of the Peng Devil Island was also a Demon Beast.”“One is from the leopard clan whereas the other is from the bird clan.” Said Qin Yu with a smile.Qin Zheng looked to Qin Yu. “Third brother, don’t you think that it’s too easy on them for us to kill them? Do you have any Spiritual Beast Ring? I sense that our Qin clan’s defense is not sufficient.”“Spiritual Beast Ring? I’ve used them all. However, such a simple artifact was extremely common in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. The many great Demon Emperors of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas all know how to create them.” Qin Yu’s gaze turned to Xiu Ku and Lan Tie. “The two of you, do you wish to die or become spiritual beasts?”
Chapter 464 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 37 – Flowing Spring GalaxyTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThe controller of the Great Wilderness Xiu Ku and the Peng Devil Island’s Island Master Lan Tie’s hearts were both filled with agony and pain.“Are you two willing to become Spiritual Beasts?”The two great leaders of the Great Wilderness and the Peng Devil Island were now going to be forced to become Spiritual Beasts that were controlled by others. Was one’s life more important or one’s liberty more important? Of course, becoming a Spiritual Beast does not necessarily mean that one’s liberty would be lost. However, one’s ego would be lost!“Are you done thinking? The two of you can also choose death.” Qin Yu lifted his tea cup and drank a small sip from it.Against his enemies, Qin Yu has never been compassionate or lenient toward them. That was because Qin Yu knew that if he were to be compassionate and lenient, then these people would not be thankful but instead would be harboring their hatred within their heart. With all these years of battles, Qin Yu already knew when he ought to be fierce!“I, I am willing!” Said Lan Tie as he clenched his teeth. Only, the muscles on Lan Tie’s face were trembling slightly. One could imagine the anger he was holding back.Xiu Ku took a glance at Lan Tie beside him. He then looked to Qin Yu. “If I am to become a Spiritual Beast, I am only willing to become your Spiritual Beast.”“I don’t need one.” Qin Yu stood up. “The number of Spiritual Beasts I possess far exceeds your imagination. Much less you, even if a Demon Emperor wanted to become my Spiritual Beast, I would still not care about it.” Qin Yu had an indifferent expression on his face.Xiu Ku and Lan Tie were dumbstruck.To not even care about Demon Emperors? What was the strength of this man in front of them? How could there be such an expert in the Mortal Realm?!“Xiu Ku, I do not have the time to waste on you.” Qin Yu’s brows slightly creased.Qin Zheng glanced at his third brother. He nodded in his heart. In this world, one must be benevolent toward certain people. However, against some people, there was no need for benevolence. Only through knowing this would one be able to live even better.“I agree!” Those words were forced out from Xiu Ku’s teeth.Qin Yu and Qin Zheng glanced at each other. They both had smiles on their faces.Qin Yu asked his Spiritual Beasts in his Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas and discovered that a level eight Demon King called Jun Xiao was proficient at refining artifacts. He was also extremely proficient in refining Spiritual Beast Rings. Thus, Qin Yu ordered this level eight Demon King to refine the Spiritual Beast Rings.“Second brother, order two people to confine these two people first.” Qin Yu said to Qin Zheng.Qin Zheng looked to Qin Yu. “Little Yu, if they tried to flee, then….”“Rest assured, their powers have been completely sealed by me. Even in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, there are also not many people who are capable of breaking my seal.” Said Qin Yu with a smile. However, his words were filled with confidence.Qin Zheng nodded and then casually ordered two gold clothed Emissaries.“Utmost Supreme Second Elder.” Said the two gold clothed Emissaries respectfully.Qin Zheng nodded. He then looked to Qin Yu. “He is my third brother. That is, the Utmost Supreme Third Elder.”The two gold clothed Emissaries had already been told by their close friends, that the Utmost Supreme Third Elder had appeared. Yet at this moment, hearing those words from Qin Zheng himself, the two of them were capering madly with joy. They both looked to Qin Yu. After all, the two of them have grown up listening to the stories of Qin Yu. Seeing their idol in their hearts, the two of them grew very excited.“Second brother, are these both descendants of our Qin clan?” Qin Yu asked.Qin Zheng smiled and nodded. “These are both the descents of our Qin clan with pretty good abilities. However, the path of cultivation is indeed hard. Of the eighty thousand descendants of our Qin clan, the number of descendants that have managed to attain success in cultivation is still truly too few. For some of our branch families, only one person was able to cultivate in an entire generation.”At this moment, the two gold clothed Emissaries were chatting with each other via Voice Transmission.“Fourth Bro, is he the Utmost Supreme Third Elder?”“That’s right. The Utmost Supreme Second Elder had said it personally. Never had I expected that the Utmost Supreme Third Elder would look this young. His appearance also resembles the Utmost Supreme Second Elder greatly. As expected from blood brothers.”“When we return and tell First Bro and them that we have personally seen the Utmost Supreme Third Elder, they will definitely be extremely envious of us.”Suddenly, Qin Zheng’s voice sounded. “Where is your etiquette when you see the Utmost Supreme Third Elder?”These two gold clothed Emissaries who were shocked to see their idol only now woke up to reality. The two of them hurriedly said. “We pay our respects to Utmost Supreme Third Elder.”Qin Yu smiled and nodded. “Mn, continue to put effort into your training.” Immediately, these two gold clothed Emissaries were extremely moved. The legendary Utmost Supreme Third Elder had actually spoken to them.Immediately after, Qin Yu looked to Lan Tie and Xiu Ku.“In these couple days, the two of you better behave yourselves. Do not hope that you’ll be able to escape… with my seal within your bodies, no matter where the two of you would try to escape to, I would still be able to find you… furthermore, killing the two of you is also an extremely simple matter for me.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.Xiu Ku and Lan Tie laughed bitterly in their hearts.Having seen Qin Yu’s strength, how would they possibly dare to try escaping?!At this moment, Qin Zheng said to the two gold clothed Emissaries. “The two of you are to carefully watch over them. You must not make a mistake.”“Yes, Utmost Supreme Second Elder.” The two gold clothed Emissaries complied with the order. In front of Qin Yu, the two of their voices were both in high spirits.Afterwards the two gold clothed Emissaries detained and escorted Xiu Ku and Liu Tu down.“Second brother, I’ve heard that there’s a successor to my ‘Stellar Transformation’ martial technique? And his name is Qin Shitian?” Qin Yu suddenly said. Regarding this Qin Shitian, Qin Yu was still somewhat looking forward to meeting him.After all, he could be considered the sole successor to his ‘Stellar Transformation’ martial technique.“Haha, Little Yu, so you’ve already heard about it. Good. I shall order him here.” Qin Zheng immediately spread out his Spiritual Awareness and sent a Spiritual Awareness Voice Transmission. Soon after, a tanned scraggly bearded man walked in.Qin Yu carefully inspected this man called Qin Shitian.Qin Shitian. His appearance was very firm and persistent. Qin Yu was able to tell that this Qin Shitian was a forthright and straightforward man. His bright eyes were staring at Qin Yu.“Utmost Supreme Third Elder?” Qin Shitian was a bit uncertain.Qin Zheng who stood to the side said. “What’s with the Utmost Supreme Third Elder? Just call him master. Little Yu, what do you think?”“Master?” Qin Yu was slightly startled. A figure had suddenly emerged in Qin Yu’s mind… Liu Hanshu.“Little Yu, what are you thinking about?” Qin Zheng noticed that Qin Yu was absent-minded, thus he asked.“Oh, no, nothing.” Qin Yu looked to Qin Shitian. Seeing the longing expression in Qin Shitian’s eyes, Qin Yu said indiferently. “Good. From today hence, you shall be my second disciple.”“Second disciple?” Qin Zheng looked to Qin Yu with a confused expression.Qin Shitian however, immediately kneeled down. He kowtowed and said. “This disciple pays his respects to master.”East Hazy Mountain. Misty Mountain Villa.Four thousand years have passed. However, the Misty Mountain Villa, under the maintenance by the Qin clan, was practically unchanged from four thousand years ago. Generally, only Qin Zheng would come to the Misty Mountain Villa. However now… Qin Yu was living in the Misty Mountain Villa.Night.Laterns was hung in the Misty Mountain Villa. Qin Yu was wearing only shorts. His chest was completely bare. He was lying on his back in the hotspring within the Misty Mountain Villa. He was lying there like how he was back during the time of his childhood.Only Qin Yu was in the hot spring.“This kind of sensation is truly comfortable.” A peaceful smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face. Qin Yu’s mind and spirit which were as hard as a boulder have also now grown soft.Under the dusky lantern lights, Qin Yu was enjoying the tranquility of the night. He was lying on his back and looking at the numerous stars in the sky. Just like the time in his childhood. Back then, he was also lying on his back like this and seeing the stars in the sky.He had once trained in his martial arts in this hot spring, trained in his external techniques in this hot spring.Qin Yu closed his eyes. It was if he was still able to hear his shouting sounds from back then.“Four thousand years have passed in a blink of an eye. Time passed so fast. Royal Father, big brother and them have already ascended to the Immortal Realm. Tomorrow, I shall go to the Soaring Dragon Continent and figure out where the experts from the Purple Mystic Star would ascend to. After I finish settling down my Royal Father and them, I shall concentrate on my training.”Qin Yu’s thoughts started to shift toward Li’er.Li’er’s smiles and frowns.Especially the helpless and reluctant expression on Li’er when she left with Zhou Xian. However, Qin Yu was forever unable to forget about the disregard, disdain and the words that Zhou Xian said to him.“Brat, you are merely a mortal, Li’er is not a name that you can call. Likewise, my name, Zhou Xian, is also not a name that you can call.”“From today hence, you are not allowed to utter ‘Li’er’ from your mouth. Likewise, you also cannot call my name. Understand?”Qin Yu clearly remembered the disdainful words left behind by Zhou Xian back then.“Zhou Xian, people like him will definitely obstruct Li’er from being together with me.” Qin Yu clenched his fists. His veins bulged outward. A sharp shine burst forth from his eyes.“Pop!” “Pop!” “Pop!” …..The space in the surroundings started to violently vibrate. The hot spring that Qin Yu was lying on was also blowing up unceasingly. Splashes were flying all over the place. Qin Yu took a deep breath. He suppressed the impatience as well as the anger in his heart. Only then did the surface of the hot spring calm back down.“Divine Realm!” Qin Yu’s gaze gradually turned cold. “I have never enjoyed killing others. However, if Zhou Xian and them are going to continue to obstruct Li’er and I from being together, then they cannot blame me for turning into an Asura and start killing them.”A killing intent was born in Qin Yu’s mind.Even if his current strength was weak, Qin Yu still did not fear in the slightest. After all, the gap between the current him and Heavenly Deities was a visible gap.“Those are things for when I ascend to the Divine Realm. For now, what I must do is to increase my strength as much as possible.” Qin Yu nodded in his heart. “And before that, I shall set up the arrangements for Royal Father, big brother and them.”Under the hazy lantern lights, Qin Yu’s eyes were glistering.Soaring Dragon Continent.The Soaring Dragon Continent was mostly separated into the side of Immortal Cultivators and the side of Devil Cultivators. Back then, the main faction of the Immortal Cultivators, the Clear Emptiness Monastery, suffered the fate of being burned with Heavenly Flames by Qin Yu. In the end, even the experts of the Clear Emptiness Monastery were killed.[TL: Clear Emptiness Monastery → Qingxu Guan.]This had caused the Clear Emptiness Monastery to reach their lowest point in history instantly.Currently, the two strongest sects in the Immortal Cultivators’ side was…the Purple Sun Sect and the Blue Center Sect. When the Clear Emptiness Monastery lost their divine altar and became a second-rated sect, these two great sects were instead incessantly recruiting new disciples.[TL: Purple Sun Sect → Ziyang Men; Blue Center Sect → Lanyang Men.]The monastery of the Purple Sun Sect was located on verdant hills and limpid water. Practically everyday, there are people trying to join the sect and become their disciple.Today was no exception. A group of youngsters were filled with excitement as they stepped onto the mountain path of the Purple Sun Sect. These youngsters were all from the same village. This time around, they have all come to join the Purple Sun Sect. Merely, it was still hard to tell whether or not the Purple Sun Sect would accept them.These youngsters walked to the outside of the Purple Sun Sect’s monastery’s main gate.“This is the Purple Sun Sect. Outsides are not allowed entrance.” A youth stepping on a flying sword shouted at that group of youngsters. This group of youngsters immediately bowed and said. “Senior, we wish to become disciples of the Purple Sun Sect.”“Oh, wait a moment.” Said that youth indifferently.And at this moment, a white clothed man walked past this group of youngsters as if he was floating. That youth on top of the flying sword immediately shouted. “You, stop.”However, that white clothed man did not look at that youth at all. He merely took a gaze at the entire Purple Sun Sect. He gasped in admiration and said. “Purple Sun Sect, it’s even more flourishing than the Clear Emptiness Monastery from back then.”After he finished saying those words, this white clothed man’s foot moved. He had arrived outside of the main hall of the Purple Sun Sect.“Teleportation?” That youth on top of the flying sword immediately did not dare to shout loudly anymore.“It’s merely been four thousand years. The current Purple Sun Sect possesses even more Loose Immortal experts than before.” The white clothed man stood outside the doorway to the main hall. His gaze was instead cast toward a palace in the Purple Sun Sect. Afterwards, he disappeared again.The two disciples guarding the outside of the main hall looked at each other. They were dumbstruck. Immediately after, the two of them rushed to inform the higher levels of the Purple Sun Sect.A lot of the Loose Immortals from the Purple Sun Sect were still in the Chaotic Astral Ocean. Only about a third of them remained in the Purple Sun Sect. However, the current number one expert of the Purple Sun Sect… twelve tribulation Loose Immortal, Reverend Fen Yang was in the Purple Sun Sect. That was because he was about to ascend soon.The palace that the white clothed man saw earlier was precisely the palace that Reverend Fen Yang was doing his training in.Inside a training room of the palace, Reverend Fen Yang was sitting on the ground in a cross-legged position.“I’m going to ask you about a thing, you merely need to answer it.” A voice suddenly sounded in this room. That Reverend Fen Yang opened his eyes in astonishment. Finding it unbelievable, he looked to the man in front of him.The room was completely closed off. There was even a barrier outside the room.Reverend Fen Yang was unable to believe that someone would be able to come into the room without alarming him.“The barrier is not destroyed? The door is also not open?” Upon checking, Reverend Fen Yang was even more astonished.“Let me ask you, the Dacheng stage experts of our Purple Mystic Star, which planet would they ascend to?” Qin Yu asked directly. The Qin Yu from today wore all white, he also did not have any of the killing intent that he had before.At this moment, Reverend Fen Yang didn’t dare to think too much. He promptly replied respectfully. “Senior, the Immortal Cultivators of our Purple Mystic Star, once they ascend, they would ascend to the Immortal Realm’s Flowing Spring Galaxy’s Fish Sun Star.”Qin Yu was startled.“You said Flowing Spring Galaxy?” Qin Yu’s voice grew a bit louder.Reverend Fen Yang hurriedly replied. “That’s right. This junior is certain. Furthermore, our Purple Sun Sect possessed method of communicating with the Immortal Realm. In our sect, all of our previous generations’ seniors have ascended to the Flowing Spring Galaxy’s Fish Sun Star.”“Flowing Spring Galaxy. That was formerly Emperor Yu’s territory. It is currently administered by the Mystic Emperor. Hopefully nothing happens to my Royal Father and them.” Qin Yu frowned.Qin Yu had originally thought to carefreely enjoy some time on the Purple Mystic Star. However, after knowing where his Royal Father and them have ascended to, Qin Yu no longer have any intention to relax anymore.“I must go back immediately.”Qin Yu glanced at Reverend Fen Yang and said indifferently. “Just act as if you never saw me and continue your training.” After saying those words, Qin Yu disappeared.“Yes, senior.” Replied Reverend Fen Yang hurriedly.Afterwards, he looked to the empty room and the sensed that the barrier was still intact. He felt that what had happened was even more like a dream.“An existence that could ignore the barrier? Could it be that I was dreaming earlier?” Muttered Reverend Fen Yang. Beads of sweat were seeping out from his brows.
Chapter 465 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 38 – The Reunion of Father and SonTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinHidden Dragon Continent. Flame Capital City of the Tang Dynasty Empire. In a certain guest room in the Virtue Garden. Qin Yu and Qin Zheng were the only people in the guest room.“Second brother, I must go.” Qin Yu looked to his second brother Qin Zheng and said in a serious tone.“What happened? Why hurry back? If there’s nothing going on, stay a couple more days on the Hidden Dragon Continent.” Qin Zheng didn’t want Qin Yu to leave so quickly. After all, he had only came back a couple days ago.Qin Yu shook his head and said helplessly. “I can’t. I’ve found out the location where the Dacheng stage cultivators of the Purple Mystic Star would ascend to. That location is located within an area that an enemy of mine, from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, controls.”“Little Yu, you mean?” Qin Zheng’s expression changed.Qin Yu nodded. He said solemnly. “That’s right. What I fear the most is that person would go and find our Royal Father and big brother. If that was the case… then things would truly be bad.”“This…” Qin Zheng also started worrying. “Little Yu, is that enemy of yours powerful?”“Only so-so. However, it is impossible for Royal Father and them to contend against her. I hope that she still hasn’t taken note of Royal Father, big brother and them.” The gaze filled with hatred from the time when Mystic Emperor fled from him appeared in Qin Yu’s mind.The death of Emperor Yu, Mystic Emperor most definitely sees it as Qin Yu’s fault.Upon thinking about this, Qin Yu grew even more worried.“Well, since this is the case, I will not obstruct you anymore. Little Yu, no matter what, you must save Royal Father and big brother.” Said Qin Zheng impatiently.“Second brother, I would do so even if you didn’t mention it. They are not only your Royal Father and big brother, they’re also my Royal Father and big brother.” Qin Yu comforted Qin Zheng. Before he leaves, Qin Yu also has a couple things he must settle.Qin Yu said to Qin Zheng. “Second brother, everything regarding our Qin clan in the Mortal Realm shall be in your hands. Now that you have those two twelve tribulation Loose Demons as your Spiritual Beasts, there should not be any problem. Merely, once you ascend to the Immortal , Devil and Demon Realm, those two Loose Demons would also ascend with you… thus, I will leave behind another thing with you.”Qin Zheng looked to Qin Yu.With an intention, a figure came out from Qin Yu’s body. It then fell to the ground beside him. It was the ‘Sword Immortal Puppet’ that Uncle Lan had given him.The Sword Immortal Puppet, its strongest strength was only that of a level nine Golden Immortal. Only its defense was a bit stronger than that. However, to the current Qin Yu, the Sword Immortal Puppet was not of much use.“This is the Sword Immortal Puppet. From today hence, this Sword Immortal Puppet shall become the Inherited Treasure of our Mortal Realm’s Qin clan. Regardless of who it is, before they ascend to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, they must pass on this Sword Immortal Puppet to the next ‘Great Elder.’” Said Qin Yu.The Clan master of the Qin Clan changes every hundred years. It was still relatively fast. However, the position of ‘Great Elder’ was a position for life. Only when the previous ‘Great Elder’ ascends to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm would the next ‘Great Elder’ be chosen.“Sword Immortal Puppet?” Confused, Qin Zheng looked to the Sword Immortal Puppet. “Little Yu, is this a human’s body?”“You can consider it as such. However, it is something that Uncle Lan created back then and gave me. Merely, to the current me, this Sword Immortal Puppet is of no use.” Said Qin Yu while smiling. “This Sword Immortal Puppet requires the use of Top Quality Elemental Spirit Stones to use. These are a hundred fifty Top Quality Elemental Spirit Stones. As to the key information regarding how to use the Sword Immortal Puppet, you can know about all of them from this.”Qin Yu took a Mid Quality Divine Artifact level Spatial Ring. This Spatial Ring was something that Qin Yu obtained from the Ni Yang’s Realm.“There are Top Quality Elemental Spirit Stones within this Spatial Ring. It also contains the information as to how to use the Sword Immortal Puppet.” Qin Yu said as he entrust the Spatial Ring to Qin Zheng.Qin Zheng immediately received the Spatial Ring. After he dripped blood on it to and formed the blood oath, Qin Zheng took out the jade slip from the Spatial Ring. With merely a sweep of his Spiritual Awareness, he had came to completely understand everything contained within it.“This, this Sword Immortal Puppet….” After knowing about the strength of the Sword Immortal Puppet, Qin Zheng was stunned.Oh heavens!With the Sword Immortal Puppet, the Qin clan would be practically unequalled in the Mortal Realm.“Second brother, make it so that only the several elders of each successive generation will know about the existence of the Sword Immortal Puppet. You must definitely not let others know. Otherwise… our Qin descendants would all become too arrogant and my intention for leaving behind this Sword Immortal Puppet would also be lost.” Qin Yu continued. “This Sword Immortal Puppet must absolutely not be used unless it’s a time of crisis. Although I have left behind a large amount of Top Quality Elemental Spirit Stones, we must also take the future generations into consideration.”Qin Zheng nodded and said while smiling. “Rest assured, Little Yu. I, your second brother have been the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty for several tens of years in the past. I know what must be done…. this Sword Immortal Puppet, unless our Qin clan is in a time of crisis, we will absolutely not use it.”Only then did Qin Yu grow relieved.“Mn, those two Spiritual Beasts have been arranged and I’ve also given you this Sword Immortal Puppet. I am now at ease.” Qin Yu forced a smile. “Second brother, I’m going now.”Qin Zheng placed his hands on Qin Yu’s shoulders. He stared at Qin Yu.“Don’t be like this.” Qin Yu said as he squeezed out a smile. “Mn, we will be able to meet each other again in the future.” After he finished saying those words, Qin Yu moved and teleported into the sky.“Little Yu.” Qin Zheng looked to Qin Yu’s silhouette in the sky with reddened eyes.Qin Yu turned around. He smiled and then disappeared from the sky.With a Greater Teleportation, Qin Yu returned to the space channel. After passing through that black hole-like space channel, Qin Yu returned back to the Bewitching God Temple in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.[ED(Robin): I can’t believe he didn’t let Hou Fei and Hei Yu out, the Purple Mystic Star was their home aswell ???? Sad times..]Right after Qin Yu walked out from the Transfer Palace and into the courtyard, the housekeeper of the Bewitching God Temple, Uncle Fu, appeared.“Qin Yu, you’re leaving?” Said Uncle Fu while smiling.Qin Yu nodded. “Uncle Fu, the next time I come here will be the time when I take over the Bewitching God Temple.”“I am also looking forward to that day. Being here by myself all this time, I have also started to long for the time back in the Divine Realm.” Uncle Fu’s gaze turned misty. It was as if he was recalling the days in the Divine Realm.Qin Yu sighed in his heart. “Is Uncle Fu really not a person? It seems like Uncle Fu has feelings, thoughts and everything else.”The ability that the people of the Divine Realm have when it comes to forging Puppets, was much above what one could imagine.“Uncle Fu, farewell.” Qin Yu bid his farewell to Uncle Fu. Uncle Fu nodded and said while smiling. “Qin Yu, when you leave, you do not have to go through all those troubles. With your strength as well as the might of the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, Divine Spear Waning Snow, you possess enough power to break through the seals in those two tunnels.”Although Qin Yu had received the Top Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, Divine Spear Waning Snow, he has never truly used it yet.The seals on the two tunnels, their strength was something that Qin Yu had experienced for himself before.Never had he expected that he who was only able to jolt those two seals in the past, after possessing the Divine Spear Waning Snow, would be able to easily break through them. One could easily determine how many times his power had increased with the addition of the Waning Snow.“There is no need in using the Divine Spear Waning Snow in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.” Said Qin Yu with a light smile. After he finished saying those words, Qin Yu exited the courtyard and entered the Front Palace.Following the corridors within the Front Palace, Qin Yu easily left the Bewitching God Temple. He then flew to the foggy land covered by the Illusion Barrier.“Just continue forward directly. There is no need for you to concern yourself over the Illusion Barrier.” Uncle Fu stood at the entrance to the Bewitching God Temple and said to Qin Yu.Qin Yu nodded.Whenever Qin Yu moved to, the Illusion Barrier actually opened up a path for him. Qin Yu directly flew onward. Easily and quickly, he had passed through the enormous Illusion Barrier.“Time to find my Royal Father.” Qin Yu looked to the seal on the Bewitching God Temple’s entrance tunnel and muttered.Immortal Realm, Flowing Spring Galaxy.Fish Sun Star was the core planet of the Flowing Spring Galaxy. It was an extremely bustling place. As the location where many of the Mortal Realmers ascend to, the number of small sects and schools within the Fish Sun Star was also quite large.Clear Emptiness Monastery, Purple Sun Sect, Heaven South Sect… essentially, there are numerous amount of small sect members here. Of course, the main power controlling this location was still the troops of one of the Immortal Realm’s three big shots, Mystic Emperor.Nine Amplifications Sect, the largest sect on the Fish Sun Star. The Sect leader was one of the important personnel underneath the Mystic Emperor. With a strength of level four Immortal Emperor, the sect master of the Nine Amplifications sect possessed enough strength to display arrogance throughout the entire Flowing Spring Galaxy.Two men were sitting inside a restaurant on the Fish Sun Star.“Brother Feng, where do you think Yu’er would be?” Said a middle aged man who sat to the left. This middle aged man was Qin Yu’s father, the then Prince Who Pacified the East, Qin De!As for the person sitting across him, it was Feng Yuzi.“The extremely powerful person of rumors that managed to suppress Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor was also called Qin Yu. Say, do you think it might be possible that person is Yu’er?” Said Qin De as he frowned.Feng Yuzi said indifferently. “Brother Qin, the two of us have been friends for all these years. You are also a calm and unflustered person. How come you lose your head whenever we chat about Little Yu? Do you know how powerful that Qin Yu who suppressed Emperor Yu and the Mystic Emperor was? He is definitely a level nine Immortal Emperor. How many years has it been since Little Yu ascended? Furthermore, the most glorious moment of that other Qin Yu was three thousand years ago. At that time, Little Yu had only ascended for several hundred years. Possessing the strength of level nine Immortal Emperor in merely a couple hundred years? Is that even possible?”“Right, I am indeed muddled.” Qin De laughed at himself. “Although Little Yu’s talent was good, to attain such a cultivation speed is highly unlikely.”“Furthermore, Mystic Emperor as well as the Nine Amplifications Sect underneath her has have treated us extremely well.” Feng Yuzi gasped. “If that legendary Qin Yu were to be Little Yu, then how could the Mystic Emperor as well as the Nine Amplifications Sect be so good to us?”Qin De nodded.“Sigh. This Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm is too populated. The number of people on a single planet numbers several billions or more. Moreover, these sort of planets are countless. The people with the name Qin Yu… there are several thousands of them on a single planet. There is even less of a need to mention the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Finding Qin Yu will be truly difficult.” Qin De sighed deeply.Feng Yuzi lightly smiled and said. “Rest assured, with Little Yu’s temperaments, he would definitely not become obscure and unknown. Once he became famous, you’ll naturally be able to find him.”“That’s true. Come, let’s drink.” Qin De stopped thinking about it anymore. At once, he raised his wine cup.“Haha… truly a great joke.” A youth sitting on another table in the restaurant started laughing out loud. He then pointed to Qin De and Feng Yuzi. “These two people actually said that Senior Qin Yu was their so called Little Yu? Two nobodies who are merely at the Heavenly Immortal Stage actually tried to say they’re related to Senior Qin Yu. Truly…. Haha, you’re killing me with the joke.”An Immortal who sat on the same table as this youth sneered. “Enough, there is no need to bother with two Heavenly Immortals. If they want to dream, then let them continue on dreaming.”“The two of you, listen up.” A black clothed man on the corner of the restaurant also glanced toward Qin De and Feng Yuzi. Coldly, he said. “In the future, do not say that Qin Yu is some Little Yu. Senior Qin Yu is not someone that people like you could discuss about.”Clearly, this black clothed man was someone who idolized Qin Yu. With Qin Yu’s strength, there was indeed a large number of people who idolized him in the Immortal Realm. This black clothed man who appeared to be very powerful was clearly one of those people.Qin De frowned upon hearing this.“Brother Feng, let’s go back.” Said Qin De to Feng Yuzi. Feng Yuzi also sensed the disdain the people in this restaurant had toward them. He immediately nodded.The two of them were merely Heavenly Immortals. On a galaxy’s core planet like the Fish Sun Star, they belonged to lowest level category. Any random Immortal was able to trample upon them. The two of them could only endure.“Shut your mouth.”Suddenly, a large shout was heard. A purple clothed old man walked up from the stairway. The purple clothed old man coldly glanced at everyone present in the restaurant. His gaze was then cast on that black clothed man.“Ah, Second Elder.” Immediately, three people stood up and said respectfully to this old man.The boss of the restaurant also walked out. “So it’s actually Your Lordship the Second Elder of the Nine Amplifications Sect who has arrived. Second Elder, please.” Said that restaurant boss at once.The Second Elder instead said coldly. “You all, listen carefully. Qin De as well as Feng Yuzi are noble guests of our Nine Amplifications Sect. In the future, if you all dare to speak rudely to them, then you’ll be insulting our Nine Amplifications Sect. You got that?”Those two Immortals that were arrogant earlier immediately grew silent. As for that black clothed man, he merely turned around and also grew quiet. When comparing strength, this black clothed man was still no match for the Second Elder who was a level nine Golden Immortal.“Brother Qin De, my apologies in letting these two people disturb you. Sigh, brother Qin De, didn’t I already say this? If you want to dine and drink in the future, then come to the couple restaurants owned by our Nine Amplifications Sect. There would definitely not be anyone who would dare to disturb you there.” When this Second Elder looked to Qin De, his tone immediately grew awfully amiable.Qin De said hurriedly. “Second Elder, there is no need. We have already inconvenienced your Nine Amplifications Sect enough. For us to even have to eat in your restaurants, we truly would feel too apologetic for that.”“What’s with those words? Brother Qin De, your words are meant for outsiders. You merely need to consider our Nine Amplifications Sect as your family. On this Fish Sun Star, there is no one that dares to not give face to our Nine Amplifications Sect.” Said this Second Elder arrogantly. He then said to Qin De with an amiable tone. “Brother Qin De, come, let’s go have some fun at my place. I am still not resigned to losing to you in chess the last time. Today, I shall definitely win.”Qin De and Feng Yuzi glanced at each other. Finally, the two of them stood up.And just at this moment…A black gowned youth suddenly appeared in the middle of the restaurant. His gown was fluttering even though there was no wind. His long pitch-black hair was swaying gracefully.Everyone in the restaurant, including that level nine Golden Immortal Second Elder, had sensed an oppression coming from their heart. All of the people felt a burst of fear. They even had a weak sensation in their arms and legs.“Who is this person?” The Second Elder looked at this suddenly appearing black gowned youth in fear. The Second Elder even felt as if his Immortal Elemental Energy within his body had grown chaotic and was not being controlled.“You, you are….” Qin De saw the man in front of him. However, momentarily, he didn’t dare to admit it. Merely the aura emitted by this black gowned youth had caused a level nine Golden Immortal’s Immortal Elemental Energy to become chaotic. Such a strength, it was likely that even level eight or nine Immortal Emperors were unable to do that.The black gowned youth looked to Qin De and Feng Yuzi. A smile appeared on his face. “Royal Father, Uncle Feng.”“You’re really Little Yu?” Feng Yuzi also looked to Qin Yu in shock.
Chapter 466 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 39 – Benefactor?Translated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinQin De looked at the black gowned youth in front of him. This youth’s appearance was exactly like his own son. However, that astonishing strength… just by looking at the deathly pale complexion of the Nine Amplification Sect’s Second Elder, one would already know how powerful he was. However, the sensation that originated from his heart and soul was very clear!“Yu’er.” Qin De finally called out.“Royal Father, I’ve finally found you.” An emotional smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face. Having cultivated to this point, there were very few things that could cause Qin Yu to become this emotional.Feng Yuzi also gulped down two mouthfuls of saliva. Happily surprised, he said. “Little Yu, could it be that you’re really that legendary Qin Yu?”Seeing Qin Yu’s strength, even Feng Yuzi started believing that he might be him.Qin Yu turned around to look at the people in the restaurant. His brows slightly frowned. He then said to Qin De and Feng Yuzi with an amiable tone. “Royal Father, Uncle Feng, let’s leave here first. We can slowly talk about it later.”“Cough, cough, this, Senior Qin Yu, you’re truly him?” Although that Nine Amplifications Sect’s Second Elder addressed Qin Yu’s father as brother and all, when he saw Qin Yu, he instead grew reserved and nervous and referred to Qin Yu as ‘Senior Qin Yu.’ Truly amusing.However, time was a thing of barely any significance to cultivators. If one was to train for a hundred million years and still remain a Golden Immortal, then even if he was to encounter a Immortal Emperor who have only cultivated for several hundred years, he would still have to respectfully call that person senior. In here… everything is determined by one’s strength.“Oh, and you are?” Qin Yu looked to the Second Elder of the Nine Amplifications Sect. He had noticed that this man seemed to have a pretty good relationship with his own father.“This junior is the Second Elder of the Nine Amplifications Sect.” Said that Second Elder of the Nine Amplifications Sect.“From the Nine Amplifications Sect?” Qin Yu frowned.The Dragon Clan’s Interstellar Map Qin Yu received from Ao Wuming, it had given an explanation of all the various powers. Qin Yu knew very well that this Nine Amplifications Sect used to belong to Emperor Yu. And now, it was a sect under the Mystic Emperor.“No matter what sort of plot one has, in front of an absolute power, they are all child’s play.” Qin Yu wasn’t worried in the slightest. With his current strength… especially after obtaining the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact Divine Spear Waning Snow, there is definitely no one in the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that could take a spear strike from it.Even if he were to not use his High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, with merely his comprehension of the spatial laws, Qin Yu’s strength was already slightly stronger than the Gold Punishment Lord, Black Flame Lord, White Profound Lord and the others.Immediately after, Qin Yu stopped thinking about it.“Royal Father, Uncle Feng, let’s leave. It’s been a long time since I’ve last seen big brother. Little Lu, Big Mountain and them are they also here?” Said Qin Yu while smiling. In front of his relatives, his smile was always that sincere and amiable.[TL: Little Lu = Xiao Lu → Little Jade. Big Mountain = Da Shan. They’re both Qin Yu’s friends from the earlier chapters.]Qin De nodded and said. “Right, let’s return. Your big brother has been reminiscing about you since some time ago.”Qin Yu did not know where his Qin clansmen lived. Thus, he could only follow his Royal Father and Uncle Feng. The three of them flew out from the restaurant together. They rapidly flew toward the residence of the Qin clan. As for that Second Elder of the Nine Amplifications Sect, he instead took out a Transmission Spiritual Pearl. After he sent the transmission, he also flew out of the restaurant.Only a long time after Qin Yu and the others left the restaurant, did the people inside the restaurant come back to their senses.“That man from earlier is so terrifying.” An Immortal still had a pale complexion on his face.That black clothed man who sat on the corner of the restaurant was staring at the location where Qin Yu flew out. He was astonished. “He is even more powerful than my master, much much much more powerful! Could it be that… he really is Senior Qin Yu?”The conversation that Qin Yu had with Qin De and Feng Yuzi as well as the original conversation that Qin De and Feng Yuzi had, was something that majority of the people in the restaurant had heard. Merely from their dialog and, on top of that, Qin Yu’s strength, almost everyone had came to a speculation… ‘the black gowned youth from earlier was the legendary Immortal Emperor Qin Yu.’“We were cursing at Senior Qin Yu’s relatives earlier?” The two Immortals that had started the rebuke against Qin De looked to each other. They were sweating cold bullets.Qin Yu flew behind Qin De and Feng Yuzi for a long time. Finally, they approached a courtyard manor and descended.This courtyard manor, merely its walls were several kilometers long. Even on the Fish Sun Star, this courtyard manor could be considered one that is quite luxurious and big. This was especially true because the courtyard manor was located within the city. Usually, one would not be able to possess such a courtyard manor unless one possessed enough strength.Qin Yu, his father and his Uncle Feng descended outside the entrance of the courtyard manor.The two servants guarding the entrance saw them and immediately said respectfully. “Master!” Qin De immediately pulled Qin Yu while smiling and walked into the enormous courtyard manor.“Royal Father, is this the place you, big brother and the others live in?” Puzzled, Qin Yu asked.With the strength of his own father and big brother, how could they possibly be able to attain such a large courtyard manor on a core planet like the Fish Sun Star?“That’s right.” Qin De smiled as he nodded. “Actually, this is your Aunt Feng’s courtyard manor. However, after your Aunt Feng and your Uncle Feng married each other, we also benefited from association and started living in this courtyard manor.”Qin Yu smiled and looked to Feng Yuzi. “Uncle Feng, congratulations.”Feng Yuzi was unable to refrain from smiling. “This is also fate. All those years I’ve spent in the Mortal Realm, never had I anticipated that I too would have such a day. I had anticipated even less that I would be able to meet your Aunt Feng. The Heavens were truly good to me.”“Stop showing off your good fortune shamelessly. Come, let’s go into the main hall first.” Said Qin De while smiling.The three of them continued to walk into the courtyard manor. Inside the courtyard manor was an enormous pond. An arching bridge crossed over the pond. After passing over the bridge and walking down the winding corridor for a moment, the three of them arrived at the main hall.“Inform the young master and them to all come to the main hall.” Qin De smiled and said to the servant outside the main hall.“Yes, master.” That servant immediately left.Qin Yu, Qin De and Feng Yuzi all took their seat in the main hall.“It seems like big brother is not inside the courtyard manor?” With a sweep of his Divine Awareness, Qin Yu discovered that the only person he knew in the courtyard manor was Little Lu. Even Tie Shan wasn’t here. Qin Yu did not go and try to greet Little Lu immediately. After all, Little Lu was about to come over anyway so there was no need for him to be impatient.Qin De was startled. He said. “Not here? That is something that I didn’t know about. However, rest assured. If your big brother isn’t in the courtyard manor, he is most definitely in somewhere in the city. I have already ordered the servant to inform them. The housekeeper would send a message to them via the Transmission Spiritual Pearl.”Qin Yu nodded.“Yu’er, how have you been in these past four thousand years? Furthermore… not long after I arrived in the Immortal Realm, I heard about an extremely exceptional expert. That expert is also called Qin Yu. Could it be that he was really you?” Even now, Qin De still found it somewhat hard to believe.Feng Yuzi also looked to Qin Yu. “Little Yu, I’ve heard that man had once killed twenty six Immortal Emperors in a single succession. And in the end, even Emperor Yu fled in disgrace. Furthermore, on the planet where the Cyan Emperor underwent his Divine Tribulation, he had also displayed his astonishing strength. It was rumored that he is a level nine Immortal Emperor.”Qin Yu laughed at himself and said. “The rumors gets more and more excessive the more they spread. Although a lot of the things are true, they were not what others have said it to be. Back then, my strength was not that exaggerated.”“You truly are him?” Feng Yuzi and Qin De heard Qin Yu’s speech and his tone. It seemed that Qin Yu had admitted that he was that Qin Yu.Qin Yu nodded. “That’s right.”“But, but during that time, you had only ascended for how long?” Feng Yuzi felt fear in his own thinking. At that time, Qin Yu had only ascended to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm for how long? However, he actually killed twenty six Immortal Emperors in a single succession?Qin Yu shook his head and smiled. “No. Actually, back then, the one who killed twenty six Immortal Emperors in a single succession wasn’t me. Instead, it was someone else.”“Oh. Like I said, although Little Yu is a genius, you had only been in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm for a hundred or two hundred years at that time. How is it possible that you’d be able to kill twenty six Immortal Emperors in succession?” Feng Yuzi suddenly realized.Qin De instead frowned and asked. “Yu’er, back then, who was it that saved you and killed twenty six Immortal Emperors?”“Saved? I won’t consider that to be saving. It was mostly because I possessed the Divine Artifact, Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. The Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas has three layers. The first layer possesses Heavenly Demon level Spiritual Beasts. The second layer possesses Demon King level Spiritual Beasts. The third layer possesses Demon Emperor level Spiritual Beasts. At that time, I had finally reached the Immortal Emperor level and thus managed to open the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. Afterwards, I ordered an extremely powerful Demon Emperor to kill those people.” In front of his relatives, Qin Yu told the truth as it was.Feng Yuzi opened his eyes wide. He pointed at Qin Yu but was unable to finish his sentence. “You, you…”“Uncle Feng.” Qin Yu looked to Feng Yuzi in confusion.Only after a long time did Feng Yuzi manage to slowly calm down. He said. “Little Yu, you said you’d reached Immortal Emperor level at that time?”“That’s right. If I hadn’t reached the Immortal Emperor level, how would I have been able to open the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas at that time?” Said Qin Yu with a slight smile. Only now did he understood the reason why Feng Yuzi was shocked.It was true that at that time, it had only been a bit more than a hundred years since he ascended to the Immortal Realm. To be able to reach the Immortal Emperor level in a bit more than a hundred years was indeed something that would shock anyone.“Yu’er, there are rumors that you’ve encountered Emperor Yu on the planet that the Cyan Emperor was undergoing his tribulation on? And you’ve even fought him there?” Qin De took a deep breath. With anticipation, he looked to this miraculous son of his.Qin Yu nodded and said while smiling. “That’s right. During the battle on the Reef Yellow Star, I was still no match against Emperor Yu. However, during the time of the Cyan Emperor’s Divine Tribulation, although Emperor Yu had reached level nine Immortal Emperor then, I had already reached a level on par with him.”During the time of the Cyan Emperor’s Divine Tribulation, it had only been several hundred years, not even a thousand, since Qin Yu ascended to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.Feng Yuzi and Qin De looked at each other.Was this still the same third child that they had considered to be without any future prospects?And just when Feng Yuzi and Qin De opened their mouths, about to say something, suddenly…“Big brother Yu.” A sharp and clear voice sounded. A gentle beautiful woman ran in happily.“Little Lu.” Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Qin Yu had also grown happy. Little Lu was his childhood playmate.Right after Little Lu came in, a group of people rushed in one after another. These people, some of them had the appearance of old people, some of them youths, and some of them youngsters. However, with no exception, all of these people’s eyes were filled with excitement.After these people came in, almost simultaneously, their gazes were all cast toward the stranger… Qin Yu.The person who had caused the sudden emergence of the Qin clan in the cultivation world, the person who had made the Qin clan become a miracle in the history of the Mortal Realm, the Qin descendants who grew up hearing about this Utmost Supreme Third Elder, all of them were filled with idolization toward this Qin Yu. To be able to meet Qin Yu today, each and every one of them was excited.They all clearly remembered the achievements of Qin Yu…Incapable of training in the internal martial techniques, this man had instead relied on the external martial techniques to enter the Xiantian stage, becoming the first external Xiantian expert of the Hidden Dragon Continent.At the age of twenty, he entered into the world of cultivators.He entered the Seabed Cultivation World and, in merely several years, established the Stellar Pavilion and became one of the overlords of the Seabed Cultivation World. The number of Demon Cultivators underneath him numbered in the hundred thousands.Nine Swords Immortal Mansion, Chaotic Astral Ocean, Soaring Dragon Continent… the numerous stories of Qin Yu, these descendants all clearly remembered it in their hearts.“Great grandfather, is he the third grandfather?” A youth said to Qin De in a low voice.Qin De nodded. He then looked to Qin Yu. “Yu’er, they are the descendants of our Qin clan that have ascended in the past four thousand years. These are merely half of them. There are still many of them that are outside with your big brother.”Qin Yu nodded. He then looked at this group of Qin descendants.In the skies of the Fish Sun Star, a group of people were flying rapidly. The leader among them was precisely Qin Feng. In the Immortal Realm, amongst the Qin clansmen, Qin Feng possessed prestige second only to Qin De.“Little Yu, Little Yu has actually come.” Qin Feng’s eyes possessed an overjoyed expression.“Everyone, fly faster.” Qin Feng turned his head around and shouted.Immediately, the group of people following him proceeded to try harder and fly faster. At this moment, more than a dozen people flew up from below. They were led by a white clothed youngster. This white clothed youngster brought the people to Qin Feng’s side and asked. “Grandfather, why did you send an urgent transmission for me?”In actuality, that housekeeper merely sent a voice transmission to Qin Feng, Tie Shan and a couple other leaders. As for the other younger generations, Qin Feng and them would naturally inform them.“Your third grandfather has arrived.” Said Qin Feng.“Grandfather, you mean…” That white clothed youngster was unable to believe what Qin Feng had said.A woman behind Qin Feng smiled and said. “Little Nan, that’s right. Your third grandfather has come. Didn’t you frequently tell me about how much you idolize your third grandfather? About how much you want to meet your third grandfather after ascending to the Immortal Realm?”“Mother, is it truly the Utmost Supreme Third Elder?” Qin Nan asked again.“Mn, why would your mother lie to you?” Said that woman while smiling.Qin Nan’s eyes immediately burst forth an ecstatic radiance. “Grandfather, quick, let’s go. I’m not going to wait for you.” After that Qin Nan finished saying those words, he immediately increased his speed and turned into a ray of light. Instantly, he had left Qin Feng far behind.Qin Feng’s grandson, Qin Nan, was currently the strongest among the Qin clan. He could also be considered as an exceptional genius. His cultivation speed was extremely astonishing.“This child.” Qin Feng felt a bit helpless. Immediately after, he was unable to hold back his longing to see his own brother. He turned to Tie Shan beside him and said. “Brother Tie Shan, lead everyone for me, I’ll be going back first.”Qin Feng also stopped suppressing his speed. Immediately, he sped up to his maximum speed and proceeded to rapidly fly toward the courtyard manor. Merely, his speed was still a bit slower than that Qin Nan’s.Bustling with activity. Currently, a large number of people were gathered in the main hall of the Qin clan’s courtyard manor. Never had the Qin clan’s courtyard manor been this lively before. All these people would occasionally look at Qin Yu with curious and idolizing gazes.Only, many of the people among this large group of people didn’t dare to talk with Qin Yu. Only those that were a bit more courageous would go up to him and greet him. As for the rest of them, they would look at those that went up there to talk with Qin Yu with eyes of envy.The number of people in the main hall grew more and more.“Brother Yang, is that person truly the Utmost Supreme Third Elder?” Some of the younger generations of the Qin clan were talking to each other on the edges of the main hall.“That’s right, that’s the Utmost Supreme Third Elder. Oh how amazing it would be if the Utmost Supreme Third Elder would talk and smile to me.” Said that youth beside him.“Then go up there. There have already been a couple people that have managed to talk with Utmost Supreme Third Elder. It seems that Utmost Supreme Third Elder is an awfully nice person.”“No, I wouldn’t dare.” At this moment, that youth seemed to be somewhat timid and embarrassed.“Great Grandfather.” A voice loudly sounded in the main hall. A figure immediately rushed into the main hall. It was that Qin Nan who have rushed over rapidly.Qin Yu had also noticed this youngster who had bursted into the main hall. This youngster’s strength had actually reached the level one Golden Immortal level. He was definitely the strongest among the entire Qin clan.“Oh, Little Nan, this is your Third Grandfather Qin Yu.” Qin De stroked Qin Nan’s head affectionately. Qin Nan also continued to cleverly stay beside Qin De. He merely secretly glanced toward Qin Yu.Seeing that Qin Yu was looking at him with a smile, Qin Nan instantly grew red like a child that had been caught stealing.“Ah, Little Nan, you’re blushing?” Qin De was amazed. He then looked to Feng Yuzi beside him. “Brother Feng, Little Nan actually has a moment where he blushes too. Truly the sun has risen from the west.”To suddenly see the idol that he worshipped for several thousand years, being nervous was an extremely regular thing to happen.“Little Yu, this is your big brother’s grandson, Little Nan. He is the one with the best aptitude in our Qin clan. Oh… mistake mistake, he’s the second best after you.” Said Qin De while laughing. Upon recalling Qin Yu’s cultivation speed, even with Qin De’s temperament, he still clicked his tongue.In merely several hundred years, he had attained a level comparable to the level nine Immortal Emperor Emperor Yu? Qin De actually has such a son? Truly the Heavens were extremely generous to Qin De.“Little Yu.” A loud and clear voice sounded in the main hall.“Big brother.” Qin Yu immediately stood up.A sturdy youth stood by the entrance to the main hall. His appearance possessed a seventy percent resemblance to Qin Yu’s. Merely, he appeared a bit more straightforward compared to Qin Yu. The two brothers looked at each other. The blood within their bodies were surging. They were blood brothers!Qin Yu and Qin Feng immediately hugged each other. After some time, they released their hugs.“Oh, how many years has it been? After all these years in the Immortal Realm, I’ve finally managed to see you again. Haha… today is truly a happy day.” Qin Feng laughed loudly.“Big brother, today is also my happiest day in the Immortal Realm.” Qin Yu also felt that his heart was heating up.And at this moment, a beautiful woman walked in. “Brother Feng, I’ve heard that your nephew Qin Yu has come?”Feng Yuzi immediately stood up. While smiling all over, he walked to that beautiful woman’s side. Pulling that beautiful woman’s hand, he brought her to Qin Yu and said. “Little Yu, this is your Aunt Feng, Lian Yu. She is someone that I met in the Immortal Realm.”“Lian Yu? Who is Xuan Xi to you?” Qin Yu looked to this ‘Lian Yu.’ His gaze had turned cold.With Qin Yu’s strength, he was able to instantly tell that this ‘Lian Yu’ in front of him trained in the exact same martial techniques as Xuan Xi.“The Mystic Emperor is precisely this Lian Yu’s master.” This beautiful woman called Lian Yu said while smiling. “My master knows about the news of, Qin Yu, your arrival. I reckon that she’ll soon arrive on the Fish Sun Star.”Confused, Feng Yuzi said. “Lian Yu, your master? Wasn’t your master that great benefactor who had saved all of our lives, the senior expert of the Nine Amplifications Sect?”“Brother Qin Yu, I know of the news of you and your father’s reunion. For me to rush over here to congratulate you only now, I am truly sorry.” A voice suddenly echoed through the main hall. At the same time, a white clothed woman walked in.“Master.” This Lian Yu immediately said respectfully.“So it’s actually the great benefactor who has come.” Qin De immediately got up.Qin Yu frowned. This white clothed woman was precisely the person who possessed great hatred for him, the Mystic Emperor Xuan Xi!
Chapter 467 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 40 – Xuan Xi’s ConfessionTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThe arrival of Xuan Xi had caused all of the Qin clansmen within the main hall to become extremely well-behaved. They all stood to the side silently. As for Qin De, he had respectfully walked toward her and said. “Benefactor, you are an acquaintance of my son?”“Acquaintance? That’s right, I have indeed been associated with your son, Qin Yu before.” Said Xuan Xi with a smile. Immediately after, her gaze shifted to Qin Yu.Qin Yu’s brows started to crease slightly.What exactly did this Xuan Xi want to do? From the way it seemed now, this Xuan Xi had long discovered his Royal Father and them. If Xuan Xi wanted to kill them, they she would’ve already killed them. Why didn’t she kill them instead of treating them so nicely?“Little Yu, you called the benefactor the ‘Mystic Emperor’ earlier? What’s that all about?” Feng Yuzi asked. At this moment, Feng Yuzi’s brows were creased together. Clearly, he was in a very distressed state.Was there anyone who didn’t know of the grudges between Qin Yu and Emperor Yu?As for the Mystic Emperor, she was married to Emperor Yu. Emperor Yu had died, yet the Mystic Emperor treated the Qin clan so nicely and even had her beloved disciple marry Feng Yuzi. For anyone with the slightest amount of intelligence, they would all be able to tell that something was amiss.“Mystic Emperor.” A light smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face. “Why did you conceal your identity and become my clan’s benefactor? Could you perhaps provide an explanation?”Upon mentioning this, Xuan Xi had a bitter smile on her face. “Qin Yu, the reason why I didn’t tell your father and them about my true identity, is because I don’t want them to indulge in wild speculations.”Qin De, Qin Feng, Feng Yuzi and the rest were all standing to the side, quietly watching the conversation between Qin Yu and Mystic Emperor.“Wild speculations? Mystic Emperor, you’ve protected my Qin clan for this many years and are a benefactor to my Qin clan, I must truly thank you for that. However, to be honest, I truly do not understand why you did such a thing.” Said Qin Yu calmly.Mystic Emperor shook her head. In a disappointed and frustrated tone, she said. “If I were to tell you that I have come to my senses and am repenting for my actions, would you believe me?”Qin Yu was stunned.Coming to her senses and repenting for her actions? How could Qin Yu possibly believe that?To experts at the level nine Immortal Emperor level, their understanding of right and wrong and the hatred and desire for revenge were definitely unflinching. If they were to suddenly change and repent their philosophy, if a person had such an irresolute frame of mind, then it would be practically impossible for them to reach level nine Immortal Emperor.Of course, it wasn’t that there was no possibility that the Mystic Emperor had come to her senses and was repenting.But, who was the Mystic Emperor? She was one of the big shots, one of the leaders amongst the three great powers of the Immortal Realm. If she were in the Mortal Realm, then she would be a dynasty’s great Empress! Would such a person repent?The Mystic Emperor did not bother to wait for Qin Yu’s response. She said. “Qin Yu, I originally did not have any hatred towards you. I only became your enemy because of my husband Feng Yu. That time, when Feng Yu was killed by that expert underneath you, I became furious with rage. At that time, I indeed wanted to kill you for revenge.”Qin Yu did not speak. His gaze was locked on the Mystic Emperor as he continued to listen to her.“However, you disappeared afterwards. As the time passed, my hatred against you slowly weakened. I, Xuan Xi, am also a level nine Immortal Emperor. I am not someone who would have my eyes blinded by hatred. Only after I completely woke up from my hatred, did I discover a single matter — that from the beginning till the end, it had been Feng Yu who was forcing you as he tried to obtain your Divine Artifacts in vain. That was what led to his death.”Xuan Xi smiled tranquilly. “In fact, Feng Yu’s death had instead allowed me to become worry-free. The current me wholeheartedly focuses on the Dao. My soul’s level is also progressing very quickly. Against you… I truly do not wish to tangle with you any further. Thus, I could only confer a favor toward you in hopes that we could settle the grudges between us.”Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness swept through.The last time they met, this Mystic Emperor’s soul had only reached level nine Immortal Emperor level. However now, her soul had almost consolidated into a Golden Soul Pellet. This sort of speed was indeed considerably fast.However, even if this was the case, were the Mystic Emperor’s words truly real?“Can I believe her?” Qin Yu asked himself in his heart.“Yu’er, trust the Mystic Emperor for now.” Qin De’s Immortal Awareness Voice Transmission suddenly sounded in Qin Yu’s mind. After hearing his father’s Voice Transmission, Qin Yu’s heart was determined.Although his Royal Father’s strength was not powerful, his ability to judge was much better than Qin Yu’s. For his Royal Father to decide to trust her for the time being, there must definitely be a reason for that. Thus, Qin Yu sighed at once. “Sigh, Mystic Emperor, had Emperor Yu been as logical as you, back then, then those problems between Emperor Yu and I would’ve never happened. Emperor Yu would also not have died.”“Feng Yu’s death was his own to blame. Actually, he was already completely caught up in his Heart’s Devil. No matter who tried to persuade him, it was completely useless. As his wife, at that time, the only thing I could do was to help him.” Xuan Xi also sighed.[TL: I think I forgot to explain what Heart’s Devil is. Basically, the ‘Heart’s Devil’ is a form of tribulation or obstacle that some cultivators have to overcome, they can cause a lot of trouble during divine tribulation etc. In Emperor Yu’s case, his Heart’s Devil was his hatred for Qin Yu.]Qin De started laughing with a bright and clear voice. “Haha, good, it is good that the grudges between Senior Mystic Emperor and my son have been settled. Senior Mystic Emperor, please stay in the courtyard manor and partake in our banquet tonight.”“Of course.” Mystic Emperor nodded while smiling.With brows like the moon, with limpid autumn water-like eyes, with her white clothes floating, the Mystic Emperor indeed gave off a moving aura.In the banquet.Qin De, Yu Fengzi, Qin Feng, Qin Yu… and a large group of Qin clansmen as well as the Mystic Emperor, the Sect Master, the First elder and the Second Elder of the Nine Amplifications Sect and a bunch of others have all arrived for the banquet.The courtyard manor was extremely lively.The Sect Master of the Nine Amplifications Sect, the First Elder and the rest of them also came to know that the legendary Qin Yu was actually a Qin clansman.Although they were confused as to why the Mystic Emperor did not kill the Qin clan and instead treat them so well, they didn’t dare offend Qin Yu. Each and every one of them was extremely respectful. The attitude they had toward Qin De had also turned a lot more sincere compared to before.Qin Yu, Qin De, Feng Yuzi and his wife, Qin Feng, Mystic Emperor, the Nine Amplification Sect’s Sect Master as well as the First Elder. These eight individuals were seated at the same table.Ever since the Mystic Emperor revealed her identity in the main hall, the Qin clansmen have been in a state of nonstop excitement.At this moment, at the other tables, the Qin clansmen were chatting about the most top-notch existence in the Immortal Realm, the Mystic Emperor, as well as they their prided Utmost Supreme Third Elder, Qin Yu. They were also chatting about some of the achievements that they had accomplished in the Immortal Realm. Only today did the Qin clansmen manage to verify that… Qin Yu was that legendary ‘Qin Yu.’ This had caused this group of Qin clansmen, who already held Qin Yu as their idol, to become even more excited.As for the table Qin Yu was at, each and every one of them was drinking and eating. Each and every one of them wore a smile on their faces. However, they were not as excited compared to the other tables.“Brother Qin Yu, your cultivation speed is the fastest amongst all those people that I’ve seen and heard about in my entire lifetime… Having not seen you in a bit over three thousand years, Brother Qin Yu’s strength has grown even more astonishing. May I know exactly what level Brother Qin Yu is now?” Xuan Xi looked to Qin Yu while smiling.At this moment, Qin De, Qin Feng and the rest of the people also looked to Qin Yu.“Me? I reckon I’m not far away from undergoing the Divine Tribulation.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.Qin Yu was able to imagine that his soul’s level had already reached a point where he surpassed ordinary Deities. As for his martial prowess and body, it had already reached the ninth stage. They were most definitely fitting the requirements to undergo the Divine Tribulation.Merely, Qin Yu was still incapable of knowing when the Divine Tribulation would come.“Don’t tell me it’s because I’m still in the ‘Middle stage Origin Stage’ that the Divine Tribulation hasn’t come?” Qin Yu guessed in his heart.“Not far from undergoing the Divine Tribulation. I must truly congratulate Brother Qin Yu.” Xuan Xi said at once.Qin De and the rest of them people instead did not ask anything. Instead, they immediately changed the subject to other things.After the banquet was over, after the Mystic Emperor left with the people from the Nine Amplifications Sect, Qin Yu, Qin De and Qin Feng went into a room together. Only then did the father and sons start chatting with each other properly.The three of them sat down around a small table. Each of them poured a cup of tea for themselves.“Royal Father, earlier, you told me to believe in the Mystic Emperor? Why did you tell me to do that? Could it be that you think what she said was true?” Inside the room, Qin Yu immediately asked the confusion he had in his heart.Qin De held the teacup with his hands. With a light smile, he said. “No, I do not believe what she said was the truth.”“Then Royal Father…” Qin Yu frowned.Qin De shook his head and said. “While I did not believe what she said was the truth, I also do not think that what she said was false. Truth or false, there is no need to determine that.”“Little Yu, before this, let me tell you about a matter. Among our Qin descendants, there are twelve who ended up marrying wives in the Immortal Realm. There are also three Qin clan’s women who ended up having husbands here. As for their wives and husbands, none of them are unrelated to the Mystic Emperor.” Qin De said slowly.Qin Yu’s expression changed.“Mystic Emperor is truly fierce.” Qin Yu sensed that the Mystic Emperor was hard to take care of.There are not many Qin clansmen in the Immortal Realm to begin with. For there to be fifteen of them’ married to the Mystic Emperor’s people, this matter had turned troublesome. If they were to take care of the Mystic Emperor, then how shall they deal with the children from those fifteen marriages?Qin Feng also nodded and said. “My grandson Little Nan had also grew into a good relationship with a girl recently. As far as I know, that girl is from the Nine Amplifications Sect.”“Amazing, amazing.” Qin Yu had a trace of anger from the bottom of his heart.As the Mystic Emperor had used this move, even if Qin Yu wanted to deal with her, he could not do it easily.“Yu’er, do not think too much about it. If that Mystic Emperor wanted to kill us from the Qin clan, then she would’ve done so already. There would be no reason for her to drag all the way till now… furthermore, the Mystic Emperor is indeed a benefactor to our Qin clan.” Qin De said.“Benefactor? What did she do?” Qin Yu asked.Qin Feng spoke. “The clansmen of our Qin clan that have ascended to the Fish Sun Star in the past years have all encountered dangers before. Even I and our Royal Father were like that too. However, every single time, we were saved by the people from the Nine Amplifications Sect. There was one time where the Mystic Emperor personally came to our help. According to what the people from the Nine Amplifications Sect said, the reason why they were so protective of us was precisely because of the Mystic Emperor. Of course, in the past, they had merely said that the Mystic Emperor was an extremely powerful expert of their Nine Amplifications Sect.”“Danger, it’s possible that this Mystic Emperor had deliberately created some of those dangers.” Qin Yu was completely vigilant against the Mystic Emperor.If the Mystic Emperor was truly sincere.Then why would she make a lot of women and men become the life companions of the Qin descendants?“It is possible. However… I am certain that Mystic Emperor has shown grace upon our Qin clan. Furthermore, it’s a very large amount of grace. “ Qin De said solemnly. “Yu’er, you’ll understand once I finish telling you about this thing.”“Please speak, Royal Father.” Said Qin Yu.Qin De said. “Yu’er, you ought to know that the people from the Mortal Realm’s Purple Mystic Star, as long as they’re Immortal Cultivators, they would all ascend to the Fish Sun Star. And in every ten cultivators that ascend, roughly half of them would not make it past a hundred years.”“Really?” Qin Yu was shocked. He had never paid attention to stuff like these.Qin Feng also nodded. He said. “That’s right. When we first ascend, we’ll be merely level one Heavenly Immortals. On the Fish Sun Star, level one Heavenly Immortals are simply people of the lowest rank. However, because of the fact that those who have ascended are all people of outstanding talents in the Mortal Realm, the majority of them possess treasures and such. Yet, because of the fact that there are too many Heavenly Immortals on the Fish Sun Star, their status is extremely ordinary and the number of treasures they possess is greatly inferior to those that have ascended. Thus, the Immortals that have ascended will usually be killed by those with ulterior motives.”Only then did Qin Yu understand.“Five deaths among ten people, this was the approximate percentage. The overwhelming majority of them would end up dying like that. However, our Qin clan, in all these years, not a single one of our descendants that have ascended suffered the fate of death!” Said Qin De solemnly. “Why is it that our Qin clan was this special? It was precisely because we were protected by the Nine Amplifications Sect which was commanded by that Mystic Emperor in the shadows.”“Even if our Qin clan were to encounter dangers, and even if some of them were deliberately created by the Mystic Emperor, the others… they are instead ordinary dangers that cultivators who have ascended would encounter. For other sects, such as the Clear Emptiness Monastery and such, half among their disciples that ascend would die. However, none of us are dead. I presume you too understand the great grace that the Mystic Emperor has shown our Qin clan now?” Qin De looked to Qin Yu.Qin Yu slowly nodded.Regardless of what that Mystic Emperor was planning to do, from everything that had happened up till now, the Mystic Emperor was still a benefactor to the Qin clan.After all, if it hadn’t been for the Mystic Emperor’s protection, then it would be uncertain whether or not his Royal Father and big brother would still be alive.“Yu’er, that’s why I said that there was no need to differentiate whether the Mystic Emperor was telling the truth or not. When you weren’t here, she didn’t kill us. And now that you’ve returned, it’s even more unlikely that she’ll kill us now. For her to do such a thing, she must definitely have her own reasons. I believe that… we’ll naturally find out the truth in the future.” Qin De advised.Qin Yu grew silent. He was pondering in his heart.Qin De and Qin Feng glanced at each other. They did not disturb Qin Yu.“If I were to kill the Mystic Emperor now, then I could also be considered as repaying kindness with hostility. Furthermore, my Royal Father and them would definitely not agree to it. However, if I don’t kill her… there exists the possibility that she would kill my Royal Father and them. What should I do?”Qin Yu pondered over it for a short period of time.“Even if I were to kill the Mystic Emperor, how shall I deal with Uncle Feng’s wife? With the fifteen Qin descendants that have married the Mystic Emperor’s people?” Qin Yu slowly shook his head. “It would appear that I cannot deal with the Mystic Emperor for now. Mn…. this is the only way for now.”Qin Yu had came to a conclusion.“Royal Father, I will be leaving for a short period of time and coming back immediately.” After Qin Yu finished saying those words, he instantly disappeared. Only Qin De and Qin Feng remained. The two of them looked to each other, they were confused as to what Qin Yu was planning to do.Nine Amplifications Sect.Inside a simple yet elegant and unique palace. There was not a single servant here. This was the residence that the Mystic Emperor had on the Nine Amplifications Sect. In normal circumstances, others didn’t dare to come into this palace at all. As for now, the Mystic Emperor and the Sect Master of the Nine Amplifications Sect was in this palace.Inside the palace.Mystic Emperor had her hands on behind her back. She was facing the Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master with her back. No one know what she was thinking.“Your Majesty.” Said the Sect Master of the Nine Amplifications Sect. “Regarding that Qin clan…”The Mystic Emperor indifferently waved her sleeve and break off the Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master’s speech. “You can go and relax. You do not have to worry about anything. All you have to do is to carry on my orders.”“Yes, Your Majesty.” The Sect Master of the Nine Amplifications Sect didn’t dare to say anymore. He immediately withdrew from the Mystic Emperor’s residence. As for the Mystic Emperor, a smile suddenly appeared on her face. “Qin Yu oh Qin Yu, let’s see how you plan to deal with this mountain pass of mine.”After she finished saying that, the Mystic Emperor flipped her hand and took out a Transmission Spiritual Pearl. “Brother Zong Yan, Qin Yu has shown himself…”
Chapter 468 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 41 – Breaking Through The SealTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinOn the core planet of the Demon Realm’s Bird Clan, Black Crow Star, inside the Imperial Palace.Ever since the battle with Wu Lan, the Peng Demon Emperor had restrained his flames of anger for many years. During normal occasions, he would wholeheartedly immerse himself in training so that he could reach the level nine Demon Emperor level at an earlier date. In the over three thousand years that Qin Yu had disappeared, the Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan had also not been in constant contact with the Mystic Emperor.Inside a private room within the Imperial Palace.“What is the Mystic Emperor contacting me for?” Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan flipped his hand around and took out his Transmission Spiritual Pearl. Upon sweeping through the Transmission Spiritual Pearl with his Demon Awareness, he immediately started frowning. ‘Why is this Mystic Emperor informing me of Qin Yu’s appearance?’“Xuan Xi, for what reason are you telling me this news?” Zong Yan asked via a transmission.“Brother Zong Yan, back then, you chased to kill Qin Yu and his brothers and even killed Hei Yu’s wife’s sister-in-law, Bai Xin. Furthermore, there is hatred between you and Hei Yu, as you have killed his parents. Could it be that you believe that Qin Yu and his brothers will not to come find you?” Xuan Xi asked.Zong Yan’s brows slightly creased.The hatred and vengeance between him and Hei Yu was indeed something that was difficult to eliminate.“Xuan Xi, this is not something that you should be worried about. It is still hard to say as to whether that Hei Yu has found out who his actual parents are. And the most important thing is… although it is hard for me to kill Hei Yu, it is also impossible for Hei Yu and his brothers to kill me. I, Zong Yan, am still confident in my speed.” Transmitted Zong Yan indifferently.Evidently, Zong Yan didn’t want to fight against Qin Yu and them again.Over three thousand years ago, Zong Yan had joined hands with Emperor Yu and his wife Xuan Xi. In addition to that, his two subordinates also set out together with them. However, the aftermath of all that was a disgraceful escape. And, with Qin Yu and his brothers’ cultivation speed, their current strength was most definitely even more terrifying. There was also that Wu Lan, who had brought about fear to him. Zong Yan did not wish to continue to disgrace himself.“My speed is fast, it is impossible for them to kill me!” ….this was the true notion that Zong Yan had in his heart.Xuan Xi said via transmission. “Brother Zong Yan, please do not deceive yourself. Back then, Qin Yu and his brothers had only cultivated for several hundred years. Yet, their strength was already that exceptional. And now, over three thousand years have passed. No one knows exactly how strong they are now. Furthermore, not long ago, I met Qin Yu. I feel that… the current Qin Yu is very terrifying.”“You met him yet he didn’t kill you?” Zong Yan was astonished.Xuan Xi laughed lightly. She said via transmission. “I have my own methods. However, what I want to tell you now is that Qin Yu’s current strength is extremely astonishing. Merely by sensing the aura he emits, I can tell that… I am likely unable to block a single move from him. The sensation he gives me was very similar to that of the Cyan Emperor from back then, very similar!”What Xuan Xi didn’t know was that the aura that she sensed was the distinctive aura of individuals whose souls have reached the Golden Soul Pellet stage.The Cyan Emperor had trained for a very long time. Thus, his soul had long since reached the Golden Soul Pellet stage. That was the reason why he had the same sort of aura as Qin Yu. That was also the reason why Qin Yu was unable to tell how strong the Cyan Emperor was, the first time he met him.“Very similar to the Cyan Emperor?” Zong Yan’s expression changed.Upon thinking of the Cyan Emperor, Zong Yan felt a burst of fear. Back then, when he, Emperor Yu and the others faced the Cyan Emperor, they were unable to even move. The gap between them was truly too great.“That’s why I came to inform you. It’s best for you to be careful of Qin Yu and his brothers’ revenge. Well then, that’s all I have to say. Brother Zong Yan, as to what you plan to do about it, that is not my problem.” After Xuan Xi finished transmitting these words, she cut the connection.Zong Yan was however still holding onto the Transmission Spiritual Pearl. His complexion and expression changed several times. He had turned somewhat gloomy.“Handle Qin Yu? I’m unable to even win against that subordinate of his, how can I kill him?” Zong Yan slowly shook his head. He had come to a decision.According to what Xuan Xi had said, the current Qin Yu possessed a very similar aura with the Cyan Emperor.However, if they were to compare strength, then who would be stronger?Although the Cyan Emperor had trained for a long time, his soul’s level was at the very most approaching that of a Mid Level Deity. However, Qin Yu’s soul, with the assistance from his Meteoric Tear, was definitely stronger than the Cyan Emperor’s.The Cyan Emperor was able to instantly and completely restrict the Peng Demon Emperor, Emperor Yu and them because of the treasure that he obtained from the Bewitching God Temple, that he spent tens of millions of years to completely bind and understand. Although that treasure he obtained could be considered as being pretty good, when comparing with the Bewitching God Temple’s Master’s most beloved treasure, the High Level Heavenly Divine Artifact Divine Spear ‘Waning Snow,’ it would be seriously inferior.If the Cyan Emperor were to fight against the current Qin Yu, then as long as Qin Yu took out his Divine Spear Waning Snow, the Cyan Emperor would be unable to even block a single strike from him!At the Demon Realm’s Entrance to the Bewitching God Temple.Qin Yu was standing outside the entrance by himself. After Qin Yu bid his farewell to his Royal Father and big brother on the Fish Sun Star, Qin Yu used Greater Teleportation to rapidly rush over here. With Qin Yu’s current speed, he was about ten times faster compared to before.“Eight Nine Space Sealing Array?” Qin Yu laughed indifferently.“You, the brat standing out there. As per the joint agreement of the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and the Demon Realm, this entrance is sealed. Regardless of who you are, you are not allowed entrance into it. It’s best for you to depart from here right away.” A large shout sounded from inside the Bewitching God Temple’s entrance.Qin Yu did not care about it at all. “Joint agreement of the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and the Demon Realm? You mean the agreement between those several leaders?”“After obtaining this Divine Spear Waning Snow, I have yet to use it at all. In the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, I reckon only this seal is worthy of me using it.” Excitedly, Qin Yu flipped his hand over and took out a spear.A dark black colored shaft, a snow-like dazzling spearhead, and a blood line coiling around the spearhead, giving it an even more baleful appearance.“Haha, what is that guy outside trying to do? Could it be that he’s planning to break through the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array? He’s truly going to make me die from laughter with this joke. Even the Dragon Emperor, Peng Demon Emperor and them are unable to break through it, who did this guy think he is? A god?”“Brothers, these thousands of years we’ve spent here have been extremely boring. Let’s enjoy the show. Let’s see how this guy will try to break the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array.”Inside the entrance, the seventy two Emperor level experts that have set up the formation array were laughing loudly. They were bored and wanted to see the embarrassment of the guy outside.Holding the spear one-handed, with the spear pointed downward in a slant, Qin Yu stood there straightly. His long black hair was drifting. His gaze was fixed upon the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array.“Waning Snow, for your first spear strike, I shall use the idea behind the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike.” Qin Yu’s wrist lightly trembled. The Divine Spear Waning Snow turned into a roaming dragon instantly. With a slight spin, it shot toward the entrance.Pressing forward without stopping!Broken!All seventy two Emperor level experts inside the entrance looked at the scene in front of them with wide opened eyes.A very simple strike.However, from their point of view, it was as if the space surrounding Qin Yu had instantly grown distorted following his movements. At the same time, a chain of mirages was born from his spear.“Pfff!”Instantly, the numerous mirages combined into one. Like ripping through paper, the spear pierced through the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array. As for the seventy two Emperor level experts, they all spew out a mouthful of blood simultaneously when the great formation array was broken through.“That move just now….” An Emperor level expert still had blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. However, his eyes were wide open. He was still recalling that fearsome spear strike.All of them managed to clearly see the spear strike.The spear strike appeared to be very simple. Its speed also seemed pretty average. However, all of them were able to remember that…. when the spear moved earlier, the space was also distorted. Furthermore, the instant the spear left Qin Yu’s hand to the instant it pierced through the seal, none of them managed to see it clearly.It was like the spear had teleported.“Haha, mistaken, mistaken. The ‘domains’ of Emperor level experts are truly a joke, a joke. This is domain, the true domain.” A youth among the seventy two Emperor level experts suddenly started laughing out loud. “I finally understand now. So this is what controlling the space is. So this is what ‘domain’ is.”That youth flew to Qin Yu. He bowed extremely respectfully. “Thank you senior, for the spear strike earlier. This junior has been stuck at the sixth Devil Emperor level for many years, however, from your attack, this junior has realized. This junior is confident that he will be able to become a level nine Devil Emperor within a hundred years.”“That guy is dreaming.” Immediately, someone mocked the youth. To be certain that he’ll reach the ninth Demon Emperor level just by seeing the spear strike?That youth was still standing in front of Qin Yu respectfully. “Senior’s control of space greatly surpasses the Dragon Emperor, Peng Demon Emperor and them from that day. It also greatly surpasses this junior’s master’s. May I ask if senior is from the Divine Realm?”This youth was no ordinary bystander. He was actually the disciple of the Devil Realm’s level nine Devil Emperor, Mo Kong.As this youth was usually under the guidance of Mo Kong, his speed of progress was also amazingly rapid. However, upon seeing Qin Yu’s spear strike, he instead discovered that what his master had taught him over the years, was extremely shallow. He had instantly caught a glimpse of the greater Dao and was confident that he would be able to become a level nine Devil Emperor within a hundred years.“Your comprehension is truly good. However, I am not from the Divine Realm.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.“This junior is called ‘Wu Long.’ May I know who senior might be?…” Said this Devil Realm’s youth respectfully.Qin Yu glanced at Wu Long. He then looked to the other seventy one Emperor level experts. With a light smile, he said. “The reason why I broke the seal today, was because I cannot bear to see the tyranny imposed by some of the leaders of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. From today on, it’s best for you to stop sealing this entrance. If I were to discover that this entrance is sealed again, then all those that set up the seal shall be killed.”All of those seventy two Emperor level experts shivered in their hearts.The spear from earlier had pierced through the seal like piercing through a window. This had caused everyone to know that… even if it the Dragon Emperor and them went up against him, they would still be no match for the mysterious expert before them. If this man before them truly wanted to kill them…These seventy two Emperor level experts grew fearful.“I shall excuse you all this time around.” Qin Yu’s words had let all seventy two Emperor level experts a sigh of relief.“Return and tell your leaders to stop putting on this seal in the future. I dislike it.” Said Qin Yu coldly.“Yes, senior.” How would those seventy two Emperor level experts dare to say anything else?Qin Yu glanced at the seventy two people. He then flew into the entrance. When he passed through this group of people, Qin Yu’s clear voice once again sounded. “You can tell your leaders that my name is… Qin Yu!”“It’s Qin Yu?”The majority of these Emperor level experts were woken up by that. When they turned around to look, Qin Yu had already disappeared into the foggy Divine Illusion Barrier.“Senior Qin Yu is truly too amazing. His strength was already comparable to level nine Immortal Emperors back then. Never had I expected that after not seeing him for these years, his strength had actually reached such a state.” Many of them were astonished.As for that Devil Realm’s youth called Wu Long, he was looking at that foggy Divine Illusion Barrier and thinking in his heart. “Senior Qin Yu, the grace shown to me by your spear strike is comparable to the grace of being taught by my master. Wu Long will never forget about it.”Soon after, Wu Long was the first one to depart from here. The other seventy one Emperor level experts also followed behind and left from the entrance.Wu Long had said that he’ll be able to reach level nine Devil Emperor level in a hundred years. Today, all these Emperor level experts laughed at him. However, a hundred years later… Wu Long had actually become the number one expert from the Devil Realm in not just name but also in reality. Furthermore, he became most proficient in using the spear!In the Crescent Moon Bay of the Immortal Realm.Emperor Liu who had succeeded the Cyan Emperor was currently in a state of shock. In front of him were five Immortal Emperors who had just returned from the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple.“What did you say earlier?” Emperor Liu asked again.The leader among the five said respectfully. “Your Majesty, this subordinate of yours said that not long ago, the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array on the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple was broken through by a man using a single spear.”“How is that possible, impossible!” Emperor Liu was unable to believe it.Back then, after the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array’s arrangement was completed, the Dragon Emperor, Peng Demon Emperor, Great Ape Emperor and other experts had all tried to attack the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array. Some of the powerful experts had even attacked together. However, none of them were able to do anything to the seal.“Your Majesty, you can go and look at it yourself. Furthermore, all of the other Emperor level experts that set up the formation array also know of it.” Said that Immortal Emperor respectfully.“Your Majesty, the person who broke the seal also said that he does not allow people to set up the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array in the future. He said that he cannot bear to see this sort of tyrannical behavior and that if he were to discover the seal again, he would kill all those who set up the seal.” That Immortal Emperor added.Emperor Liu grew silent.After a long silence, Emperor Liu asked. “Who is it that broke the seal?”“He said he is called Qin Yu!” Said that Immortal Emperor respectfully.“Qin Yu….” Emperor Liu’s brows were raised. He was unable to restrain the shock in his eyes.The previous Dragon Emperor Ao Fang had already abdicated. The current Dragon Emperor was Ao Wuming.Only, Ao Wuming does not possess the Inherited Treasure. This was something that Ao Wuming requested himself. He said that he would only accept the Inherited Treasure after his Imperial Father Ao Fang finished using it to pass the Divine Tribulation.Ao Wuming looked at the fourteen Demon Emperor expert subordinates. These fourteen Demon Emperor level experts were the ones dispatched to set up the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array. Hearing what they had said, Ao Wuming was still unable to believe it.“Wuming, what happened?” Ao Fang walked into the main hall.“Imperial Father, an expert broke through the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array. He also said that he does not permit others to seal the entrance in the future and that if he were to discover it again, then he’ll kill all those that set up the seal.” A smile was instead on Ao Wuming’s face.“Impossible. Both myself and the Great Ape Emperor have tried to break it before. Neither one of us managed to break through it. Who could possibly be capable of breaking through the seal?” Ao Fang found it to be impossible to believe.“Imperial Father, you can go ask the other people. This is the truth.” Said Ao Wuming solemnly.Seeing Ao Wuming saying it like this, Ao Fang had also accepted it. Only, the fact that there was someone in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that was capable of breaking through the Eight Nine Space Sealing Array had brought an immense shock to the old Dragon Emperor.“You wouldn’t believe who it was that broke the seal.” Ao Wuming said with a smile.“Who? Is it the new Gold Punishment Lord of the Dark Star Realm?” Ao Fang asked. In his heart, he believed only the leader among the Three Great Sovereigns of the Dark Star Realm was able to break through the seal.Ao Wuming shook his head. He smiled and said. “I do not know of the Gold Punishment Lord. However, I know of the person who broke the seal. His name is…. Qin Yu!”“Qin Yu?” Ao Fang seemed to have stopped breathing. He was unable to say anything for a long time.Following the return of the seventy two Emperor level experts, the news of Qin Yu breaking the seal had instantly spread to all the major experts of the Three Realms — the Demon Realm’s Peng Demon Emperor, Ox Demon Emperor, Great Ape Emperor and them; the Immortal Realm’s Flame Emperor, Mystic Emperor, Emperor Liu and them; the Devil Realm’s Blood Devil Emperor, Black Devil Emperor and them.In short, Qin Yu’s astonishing strength had brought fear to all of the people.Furthermore, not a single one of them dared to bring up the idea of sealing the Bewitching God Temple’s entrance again.
Chapter 469 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 42 – Remodeling the Immortal MansionTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinDuring the time when the seventy two Emperor level experts left the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple and returned to inform their respective leaders, Qin Yu had once again passed through the Divine Illusion Barrier in the external region of the Bewitching God Temple and arrived in the courtyard within the actual Bewitching God Temple.“Qin Yu?” Uncle Fu was pleasantly surprised by Qin Yu’s arrival. “It’s only been a couple days and you’ve already back? Could it be that you’ve managed to find a way to open the Artifacts Palace?”Qin Yu immediately waved his hand and said while smiling. “Of course not. It’s only been several days, I have yet to achieve that great of an improvement. The reason that I came today is because I have a matter that I wish for Uncle Fu to help me with.”“Right, that’s what I thought. Go ahead and say your matter. As you are the successor to the Bewitching God Temple, as long as I can accomplish it, I will definitely help you.” Said Uncle Fu while smiling.“Uncle Fu, are you proficient with matters regarding formation arrays and barriers?” Qin Yu asked with hope and expectation.The reason for his coming today, was so that he could allow his Royal Father and them to be even more safe. He had thought of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. However, the barrier on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion was still too weak to level nine Immortal Emperor level experts. Thus, Qin Yu had thought of Uncle Fu.According to what the master of the Bewitching God Temple had said, in order to create artifacts, one must possess a sufficient level of understanding in the matters of formation arrays and barriers. Thus, Qin Yu believed that Uncle Fu who had followed the master of the Bewitching God Temple for numerous years ought to be very proficient in the Divine Barriers.Qin Yu did not need Uncle Fu to know a lot about the formation arrays and barriers. All he wanted was for Uncle Fu to place a couple Divine Barriers on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. He believed that if that were to happen, then it would be impossible for even the Mystic Emperor to break through the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.“Formation arrays and barriers?” Uncle Fu stroked his mustache and laughed. “Qin Yu, you also know that I do not possess a soul and am unable to comprehend the spatial laws. When I’m bored, I would usually research some complicated formation arrays. For formation arrays and barriers, I could not be considered as a ‘great expert,’ but I could still be considered as being pretty good in the Divine Realm.”Uncle Fu had followed the master of the Bewitching God Temple for countless years. Due to the fact that his body was created by the master of the Bewitching God Temple, his body’s energy was provided by Divine Realm’s Energy Stones. He didn’t need to train. Thus, he spent majority of his time researching formation arrays and barriers.Uncle Fu could definitely be considered an expert in the field of formation arrays and barriers.However, Qin Yu did not notice in Uncle Fu’s tone that he was being modest.“That’s enough, enough. I do not need Uncle Fu you to be amazingly powerful. I merely need some powerful defensive Divine Barriers.” Qin Yu said hurriedly. At the same time, he flipped his hand around and took out a pearl.“Uncle Fu, this is a pearl that was transformed from an Immortal Mansion. I would like Uncle Fu to help me place some defensive barriers on this Immortal Mansion.” Qin Yu immediately spoke of his purpose in coming.Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu in confusion. “Qin Yu, why are you bothering with this? Could it be that with your current attack power, there are still people in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm who are capable of threatening you?”“No, this is for my father as well as my brothers.” Qin Yu said. “I fear that after I ascend to the Divine Realm, my father and them might be attacked by certain people. Thus, I wanted to give them an Immortal Mansion that could safeguard them.”Uncle Fu realized Qin Yu’s purpose. He immediately patted Qin Yu’s shoulders. Confidently, he said. “Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm? Haha… I, A’Fu, was someone who had followed my master and seen the greater society. The people that I would usually befriend were also usually first class Heavenly Deity experts. Formation arrays and barriers? Although I cannot be considered as being a great expert in them, but even if I were to just casually create a couple, no ordinary Deities would be able to break through them.”Qin Yu was immediately overjoyed.Formation arrays and barriers that even ordinary Deities were unable to break through, was there any need to fear Mystic Emperor and them now?“Uncle Fu, thanks.” Qin Yu retrieved the Qingyu Immortal Mansion back into the Jiang Lan’s Realm. At the same time, he said. “Uncle Fu, it’s too small here. Come with me to the Jiang Lan’s Realm, let’s properly set up the formation arrays and barriers there.”The area of the courtyard was not big. In order to place barriers on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, they needed to revert it back to its original size.Uncle Fu was the housekeeper of the Bewitching God Temple and Qin Yu was the sole successor to the Bewitching God Temple. Thus, Qin Yu did not mind Uncle Fu knowing about the Jiang Lan’s Realm.“Jiang Lan’s Realm?” Uncle Fu was surprised. Following which he smiled and said. “From the way it sounds, it appears to be a spatial Divine Artifact. Exceptional. Exceptional. Good, I shall go and see.”With an intention of Qin Yu’s mind, Uncle Fu who did not resist him had been absorbed into the Jiang Lan’s Realm.Inside the first layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.A palace suddenly appeared on an area of meadows. It was the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. As for Qin Yu and Uncle Fu, they were standing in the air.Uncle Fu looked to his surroundings with amazement. Sensing the Elemental Spirit Energy within the Jiang Lan’s Realm, Uncle Fu exclaimed in admiration. “Truly amazing. It’s actually able to let the Elemental Spirit Energy from the outside enter within it. And from the way it looks, this realm is boundless. The person who created such a spatial Divine Artifact… his strength is definitely no less than my master.”Uncle Fu still didn’t know that the Jiang Lan’s Realm was actually divided into three different layers and each of the layers possessed different flows of time. Had Uncle Fu known that even time changed in the Jiang Lan’s Realm, then he would’ve likely been even more shocked.“Well then, it’s been a long time since I’ve arranged any formation array. I’m a bit itchy to get started.” Said Uncle Fu while smiling. At the same time, he flew to the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. “Qin Yu, remove all the barriers that were on it before.”Evidently, Uncle Fu simply did not care about all the formation arrays that Immortal Emperor Ni Yang had placed on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.Qin Yu smiled. “Uncle Fu is Uncle Fu alright. The housekeeper of the number one artifact craftsman in the Divine Realm is also not someone that you can look down on.” Immediately, Qin Yu removed all of the barriers on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.The current Qingyu Immortal Mansion had no barrier on it at all. It was free for Uncle Fu to put in whatever he wanted.“There’s no need for the barrier to be extremely powerful in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Might as well take things less seriously.” Uncle Fu extended out his hands. Ten rays of lights shot out from his fingers simultaneously. The ten rays of lights either intersected with one another, fused together or formed various peculiar symbols. In the end, it took the form of a net and completely wrapped around the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. Afterwards, it blended into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.“Defensive, offensive and Illusion Barrier, one of each.” Uncle Fu lightly nodded. He then closed his eyes. His ten fingers would occasionally snap and occasionally form hand seals. Like that, the formation arrays integrated into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion.After about an hour.The entire time, Qin Yu was quietly watching from the side. However, Qin Yu must admit that he did not understand at all the formation array that had been set up. For formation arrays set up by Immortal Emperor level experts, he was still able to understand what he was watching through great difficulty. However, the formation array that Uncle Fu was making, although it appeared to be very simple, Qin Yu was unable to understand it at all.How come those hand seals and peculiar formations would merge together and form a Divine Barrier?“It’s done.” Uncle Fu smiled as he flew back to when Qin Yu was at.“Uncle Fu, how is the barrier that you cast on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion?” Qin Yu immediately asked.Uncle Fu said confidently. “I did not spend a lot of effort or energy. After all, my energy comes from the Divine Spiritual Crystal Essence. I have placed a total of three Divine Barriers on it. One is an offensive barrier, one is a defensive barrier and the last one is a illusion barrier.”“This illusion barrier that I placed, it is stronger than the lowest ranked illusion barrier placed on the external regions of the Bewitching God Temple.” As Uncle Fu said this, Qin Yu started to smile.The illusion barrier of the Bewitching God Temple, with the exception of those who possessed the Bewitching God Painting, there has yet to be anyone who managed to go through it and reach the Bewitching God Temple. However, the one placed around the Bewitching God Temple was merely the lowest level Divine Illusion Barrier. Yet, the one that Uncle Fu had placed on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, an ordinary Divine Illusion Barrier, was even more powerful.“As for this defensive barrier, ordinary Deities are unable to break through it. Its defense is much stronger compared to the seal that you broke through using the Divine Spear Waning Snow. If you were to use the Divine Spear Waning Snow, then you should be able to break through it when using all your strength.” Uncle Fu continued.Qin Yu smiled satisfiedly.With such a powerful defensive barrier, how would Qin Yu not be satisfied?“As for the offensive barrier, it can only attack those within the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. It is unable to attack those outside the Immortal Mansion. As for its attack power… it cannot be considered powerful. While ordinary level nine Immortal Emperors would not be able to block against it, it would be another story if they possessed Heavenly Divine Artifacts or Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.” Said Uncle Fu honestly.However, Qin Yu did not mind about that in the slightest.“Offensive barrier? Haha, there most likely wouldn’t be a need for it. I would tell my Royal Father to not allow any outsiders to enter it.” Said Qin Yu while smiling. “Furthermore, Heavenly Divine Artifacts and Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are also something that not many people possess in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.”As Qin Yu finished his sentence, he recalled the Demon Realm’s Three Great Emperors and the Dark Star Realm’s Three Great Sovereigns.Peng Demon Emperor and the Dragon Emperor’s so called Inherited Treasure was evidently stronger than Divine Artifacts. They ought to be Heavenly Divine Artifacts or Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. As for the Inherited Treasures of the Dark Star Realm’s Three Great Sovereigns, they were probably also Heavenly Divine Artifacts or Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.The three Divine Barriers placed on the Qingyu Immortal Barrier had caused Qin Yu to be very excited. After he thanked Uncle Fu, Qin Yu directly left the Bewitching God Temple.This time around, the reason why Qin Yu decided to break through the seal was first to intimidate all of the powers in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Secondly, the passage title plate given to him by the Three Great Sovereigns did not contain a lot of energy. It would only be able to open the seal a couple times. Thus, Qin Yu could only break through the seal in order to enter and exit.As for breaking through the seal to enter and exit, Qin Yu had selected the seal in the entrance located in the Demon Realm.After departing from the Bewitching God Temple, Qin Yu rapidly proceed toward the Fish Sun Star.Flowing Spring Galaxy. Fish Sun Star. Inside a room within the Qin clan’s luxurious courtyard manor. Only Qin Yu, Qin De and Qin Feng were in the room.“Yu’er, is this Qingyu Immortal Mansion truly as formidable as you said?” Qin De looked at Qin Yu with an expression of disbelief. In the few days that Qin Yu had disappeared, Qin De, Qin Feng and them were also guessing about what Qin Yu was doing. However, none of them expected that Qin Yu would bring them an enormous shock upon his return.Qin Feng also looked to Qin Yu. “Little Yu, there are barriers this powerful? It shouldn’t be likely, right?”“Big brother, Royal Father, please rest assured. This time, when I left, I had went to ask the help from a Divine Realm’s expert. The barriers placed on the Qingyu Immortal Mansion are all Divine Barriers. They are so powerful that the people from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm cannot even enter it.” Qin Yu said with absolute certainty. “Royal Father, quickly bind the core of this Qingyu Immortal Mansion… the Elemental Spirit Essence. Royal Father, this Qingyu Immortal Mansion shall be under your control in the future.”Overjoyed, Qin De looked to Qin Yu. “Yu’er, to be honest, your Royal Father, I, am truly somewhat terrified now.” As he said that, Qin De even laughed at himself. “Divine Barrier, it’s something that I don’t even dare to imagine.” As he said that, Qin De also sighed a couple times.As a father, to see his son being this exceptional and surpassing his imagination time and time again. What then could a father say to his son? All he could do was to be proud of his son.“Royal Father, Little Yu, I think… we should place the Qingyu Immortal Mansion on another planet and also migrate most of our Qin clansmen over to that planet. As for the Fish Sun Star, it should be fine as long as we left behind a couple people. Knowing the grudges between Little Yu, and the Mystic Emperor, I too am unable to be at ease.” Qin Feng spoke.After hearing it, Qin Yu grew silent for a moment. He then said. “Mn, I agree. This Flowing Spring Galaxy is the Mystic Emperor’s territory. However, a galaxy to the west of the Flowing Spring Galaxy, the Burning Sun Galaxy, is a territory under the Immortal Realm’s Flame Emperor. It would be safer there.”“Good, we shall place the Qingyu Immortal Mansion on a planet on the Burning Sun Galaxy.” Qin De also nodded and said.Soon after, Qin De started binding the Elemental Spirit Essence.Inside the Nine Amplifications Sect. Inside that elegant palace belonging to the Mystic Emperor.The Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master bowed and said. “Your Majesty, a majority of the Qin clansmen have left the Fish Sun Star. According to the female disciples that have married into the Qin clan, they have migrated to the Blazing Sun Galaxy’s Virtue Residence Star..“Virtue Residence Star.” The corners of the Mystic Emperor’s mouth was slightly raised. Her gaze contained a smile within them. “They have indeed done what I expected them to do. This Qin Yu truly does not feel at ease around me and had migrated his family to a different planet.”The Mystic Emperor turned around and looked at the Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master. “Although the majority of the Qin clan has left, isn’t there still a portion of them remaining? Treat these people from the Qin clan properly like before. You do not need to concern yourself with the other things. You can go now.”“Yes, Your Majesty.” Although the Nine Amplification Sect’s Sect Master was confused as to what the Mystic Emperor’s plan was, he had never once spoken his mind.The Mystic Emperor had a smile on her face. In a soft voice, she said. “Qin Yu, oh how could you know that I had never intended to kill your entire family. However, what you have done clearly shows that you fear me. It would seem that… my plan ought to be able to succeed.”Burning Sun Galaxy. Virtue Residence Star.Qin Yu bought a mountain range on the Virtue Residence Star. This included the several palaces on top of the mountain range. With Qin Yu’s current wealth, buying a mountain range was extremely easy for him.These several palaces have become the residences of the Qin clansmen. As for the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, it was placed in the ravine within the mountain range. The important people of the Qin clan would usually live in this Qingyu Immortal Mansion. At the same time, the Qin clan had also purchased several thousand servants on the Virtue Residence Star.Hou Fei, Hei Yu, Bai Ling, Hei Tong and a large amount of people had also come out from the Jiang Lan’s Realm. They had also decided to stay in the Qin clan. After all, there were more people there. These past days, they have also been living their lives relaxedly.In a blink of an eye, half a year passed.“Chi….”A black spearhead had ripped through the space. With an unparalleled grandeur, like a falling thunderbolt from the Heavens, it thrust at Qin Yu. As for Qin Yu, he merely brushed it aside with his right hand and casually broke this move.“Hei Yu, the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike is hard to perfect. Your Heaven Startling Single Spear Strike is also hard to perfect.” Qin Yu consoled.With Qin Yu’s sight, he was naturally able to tell that this spear strike that Hei Yu had thrown at him had not yet reached the quintessence of the Heavenly Startling Single Stick Strike.“Big brother, I cannot restrain myself. That Great Ape Emperor, isn’t he also only someone who knows the Heaven Startling Three Stick Strikes? Yet, isn’t his status the same as that of the Peng Demon Emperor? Furthermore, with my Black Feather Battle Armor, my defense is definitely comparable to that of a High Quality Divine Artifact. My movement technique is also better than the Great Ape Emperor’s. This Cloud Piercing Spear that was given to me by Uncle Lan is also extremely powerful. I should be able to kill that Peng Demon Emperor.” Hei Yu was a bit impatient.The enmity from killing his parents is absolutely irreconcilable!“Your speed is still not as good as the Peng Demon Emperor’s.” Qin Yu sighed. Seeing Hei Yu’s expression, Qin Yu knew that he cannot convince him. Thus, he said. “Fine, since you demand it like so, I shall agree to you going to find the Peng Demon Emperor for revenge.”
Chapter 470 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 43 – You Think You Can Flee?Translated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinAs Hei Yu was arguing with Qin Yu. Hou Fei, on the other hand, stood there and didn’t say anything. His gaze was instead a bit dejected.“Fei Fei, what’s wrong?” Confused, Qin Yu looked at Hou Fei. Usually, Hou Fei was someone who was always loud and lively. Very rarely has there ever been times when Hou Fei was so quiet.Hou Fei smiled bitterly and said. “Mixed Hair Bird, earlier you’ve mentioned that you want to avenge your parents. It lead me to remember that… you at least know about the information regarding your parents. But what about me? Even now, I don’t even know who my parents are. Or perhaps… do I even have parents?”Ever since Hou Fei was a child, he had always followed Uncle Lan. Although Uncle Lan had became his master in name, he had actually only provided very little amount of guidance to Hou Fei. The entire time, Hou Fei had been carefree and without worries. Only occasionally would he think about his own identity.“Monkey, don’t grieve. You are a Fiery Eyed Water Ape, you are not a Divine Beast birthed by the world, you most definitely have parents. Even though you don’t know anything about your parents, they might still be alive. That’s still a bit better off than me.” Hei Yu said after a long sigh.Hei Yu looked at Qin Yu. “Big brother, I have been with you ever since I was a child. I have considered you as my blood brother. However, that still would not conceal the truth that my biological parents were killed by the Peng Demon Emperor.”Hei Yu took a deep breath. His gaze grew sharp. “This time around, I must personally kill that Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan in order to avenge my parents.”“The only thing that I am concerned about is… that Peng Demon Emperor would flee with his speed and refuse to fight with me!” Hei Yu’s brows started to crease.Hei Yu knew himself very well. He knew that when comparing himself with the Peng Demon Emperor, his speed was still a bit inferior.“You can rest assured regarding that.” Qin Yu comforted.“Big brother, you mean?” Hei Yu and Hou Fei looked to Qin Yu with puzzled expression.Qin Yu nodded and laughed. “No matter what, the Peng Demon Emperor will have to fight against you frontally. This is something that you can be assured of.”After half a month, Qin Yu and his two brothers had changed their appearances and arrived on the Demon Realm’s Bird Clan’s core planet… the Black Crow Star.In the airspace above the Black Crow Star, Qin Yu and his brothers were standing next to each other.“Big brother, how is it?” Hou Fei and Hei Yu both looked to Qin Yu.At this moment, Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness had completely covered the entire Black Crow Star. It had even penetrated through the core of the Black Crow Star. Not a single thing on the entire Black Crow Star was able to escape Qin Yu’s inspection.“Nothing. That Peng Demon Emperor is not on the Black Crow Star at all.” Said Qin Yu with a frown.“Not here?” Hou Fei and Hei Yu also frowned.Qin Yu’s gaze was cast toward the Imperial City in the distant. He started pondering.In normal circumstances, the Peng Demon Emperor would not have left the Imperial City. However, he wasn’t in the Imperial City right now. There was a high chance that was because of Qin Yu and his brothers. That spear strike Qin Yu used to break through the seal might be another reason.“Wait here for a moment, I’ll go check out the Imperial City.” Qin Yu suddenly said.After he finished saying that, he disappeared from the sky and reappeared outside the gate of the Imperial City. At this moment, someone was coming out from the East Gate of the Imperial City and the gate was actually open.The space where the East Gate was suddenly started distorting. When those guards of the Imperial City started getting surprised by the space distortion, the space had already returned to normal. As for Qin Yu, he had already seized the opportunity and entered the Imperial City.On the street outside of the Imperial Palace, people were walking about back and forth. Qin Yu was looking at the Imperial Palace in front of him.“Mn, Ao Ku is the one with the highest strength in the Imperial City right now. He’ll do then.” Qin Yu smiled lightly. Then his figure disappeared from the streets.Inside a private room in the Imperial Palace.Ao Ku was quietly training. Back then, he had fought against Qin Yu and lost a true body to him. This had caused Ao Ku’s strength to reduce to half. All these years, he had been trying his best to train and restore his second true body.And now, his strength was about to reach the level that he was back then.“Qin Yu, you’ve ruined one of my true bodies, I will definitely get my revenge!” Ao Ku opened his eyes. His heart was filled with hatred. However, he still knew about the news of Qin Yu breaking the seal on the Bewitching God Temple with a single spear strike.With Ao Ku’s strength, his vengeance was something that was simply unable to be realized.“Ao Ku, what are you thinking about?” A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind Ao Ku. This was a voice that had been in his dream numerous times. Ao Ku violently turned around.What he saw was a smiling Qin Yu standing in the room.“Qin Yu, you…” Ao Ku was momentarily at a loss for words.“I do not have time to waste on you.” Qin Yu smiled indifferently. Ao Ku felt that when Qin Yu smiled, the entire world was beginning to spin. His mind started to become muddled. Soon after…. he had lost all awareness.Devil Path Secret Skill … Soul Bewitchment.With Qin Yu’s current soul’s power, it was very simple for him to use this skill on Ao Ku.“Ao Ku, where is the Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan?” Qin Yu asked directly.Ao Ku had a lifeless expression on his face. Blankly, like a machine, Ao Ku said. “His Majesty Peng Demon Emperor had already left the Black Crow Star half a year ago. He said if there is any important matter, I just need to send him a transmission. The location where he is, no one knows.”Hearing such a response, Qin Yu grew enraged.Suddenly, Qin Yu’s voice shined. He said. “Transmission, how do you send the transmission? Do you need to use the Transmission Secret Array or not use it? “ Using the Transmission Secret Array or not would allow Qin Yu to determine how far the Peng Demon Emperor had left.“His Majesty had strictly ordered that I need to use the Transmission Secret Array and send a transmission every half a month to report the state of affairs. However, one time I did not use the Transmission Secret Array but His Majesty still managed to receive my transmission.” Ao Ku told Qin Yu about everything in a machine like tone.Hearing such a reply, Qin Yu smiled.“Strictly ordered the use of Transmission Secret Array? Isn’t that to confuse others? To be able to receive the transmission even without using the Transmission Secret Array, it would seem that this Peng Demon Emperor should not be located far from the Black Crow Star and should be in the same galaxy.”Qin Yu was extremely certain.“Well then, as for the cute Ao Ku, since you’re an accomplice that led to the death of Bai Xin, I should leave you for Xiao Hei and Bai Ling to handle.” With but a thought, Qin Yu absorbed Ao Ku into the first layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.Qin Yu and his brothers started to to search the planets surrounding the Black Crow Star. With Qin Yu’s current Divine Awareness’ search range, the speed of their search was naturally very fast. In that galaxy, Qin Yu, without stopping or sleeping, after searching for six days…. had finally found the Peng Demon Emperor.This was an uninhabited planet.This planet was relatively close to the core planet. The planet’s temperature was extremely high. There was only desolate sand and stones here. There was no life at all on this planet. Had it been under normal circumstances, there would not be anyone who would stay at this location.However, below the surface of this uninhabited planet was a cave. A person was quietly cultivating in that cave.Qin Yu and his brothers were currently on the surface of this uninhabited planet. The three of them looked to each other and smiled.“Big brother, this Peng Demon Emperor is still only at the level eight Demon Emperor soul level. Even Mixed Hair Bird and I are able to easily find him.” Hou Fei laughed.Qin Yu nodded.Hei Yu was instead violently shining with a cold light. With a low and calm voice, he said. “Father, mother, I have never met the two of you. However, I know that even though the two of you were to be killed, you’ve still split open the space and saved my life. Today, I shall avenge the two of you.”“Yoh!”A mournful bird siren sounded from Hei Yu’s mouth. That bird siren sound was extremely resounding. It had actually formed clear space ripples. WIth Hei Yu as the center, the space ripples started spreading in all directions.Grabbing the Cloud Piercing Spear with a single hand, Hei Yu rushed into the ground.Following a diagonal line.Hei Yu actually managed to pierce a subterranean tunnel. The target of this subterranean tunnel was the Peng Demon Emperor located in the underground. As he was piercing through the ground, Hei Yu’s appearance had also started to change.Sharp and icy-cold black feathers had appeared on his body. Hei Yu was changing to his battle form.“Someone’s here?”The Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan who was training, was woken up by that reverberating bird siren. He opened his eyes. His Demon Awareness instantly discovered a frightening aura rushing towards him rapidly.Without saying anything, Zong Yan, with a ‘woosh,’ shot directly upward. “Bang!” The sound of explosions rung unceasingly. Zong Yan directly crashed through layers upon layers of subterranean rocks and arrived on the surface.“Trying to run away?” The direction that Hei Yu was rushing towards suddenly changed. With a slant, he started to rush upward. Anywhere his body passed, the extremely sharp and tough feathers of his easily ripped all the obstructions apart.The Peng Demon Emperor stood in the empty sky. His entire body was radiating a golden light. The golden crown on his head was even more dazzling.He did not flee!As the Peng Demon Emperor, it was impossible for him to not fight against someone and flee immediately. After all, he, the Peng Demon Emperor, was also one of the notable strong expert of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan grew curious. “Who is this person that has come for me?”“Bang!” Sand and stones were flying. The person who had come for the Peng Demon Emperor had finally shown his appearance.A plate of armor formed by black feathers. A plate of feather on his forehead adding on a layer of coldness. His hatred filled eyes seemed to be bursting out an angry blaze.“Hei Yu?” Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan was greatly shocked.He was shocked to discover that this person standing in front of him, someone that he was unable to see through, was actually Hei Yu! For him to be unable to see through Hei Yu, could it be that in merely three thousand short years, Hei Yu had become a level nine Demon Emperor?“Die!” This was the only word that managed to come out of Hei Yu’s mouth.Like a volcanic eruption, that spear strike of his contained Hei Yu’s endless anger. At this moment, the black colored Cloud Piercing Spear almost seemed to have turned into a bloodthirsty spear of anger. It ripped through the space and, in an instant, appeared in front of the Peng Demon Emperor.“Humph!” Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan sneered. His hands, covered in a layer of golden color, shot upwards to block the incoming spear.The Cloud Piercing Spear against golden colored hands.“Bang!”A violent energy wave burst in all directions. The exchange between the two of them had shaken up the entire uninhabited planet. At their level, destroying a planet was also an extremely easy task.Hei Yu’s spear was only slightly jolted.The golden crown on Zong Yan’s head shined. As for Zong Yan’s hands, covered in the golden colored matter, they were also jolted. Zong Yan’s expression instantly changed. He rapidly flew backwards. With an elegant circular arc jump, he had arrived on a place far away. Standing far away, Zong Yan looked at Hei Yu. He was unable to believe what he was seeing.“Hei Yu, when did you become this powerful? Furthermore, is that spear of yours a High Quality Divine Artifact?” In a single burst, Zong Yan asked these questions.“The dead don’t need to ask questions.” Said Hei Yu gnashing his teeth. He then proceeded to attack Peng Demon Emperor again.“A single spear attack made me reach the limit of my Inherited Treasure. If I were to use my ultimate move, then I might be able to fight against him. However… Hei Yu still has his brothers!” Zong Yan glanced to his surrounding. Sure enough, in a distant sky, there stood a person. It was Qin Yu who had been watching the fight the entire time.Qin Yu had broken through the seal on the Bewitching God Temple with a single spear strike. That was a seal that even the Dragon Emperor and them were unable to do anything to. Evidently, Qin Yu’s attack power was even stronger than the Dragon Emperor. No matter what, Zong Yan would not dare to fight against Qin Yu.Flee!Zong Yan’s body formed a graceful curve as he jumped back. He had instantly arrived at a spot extremely far away.“Humph, in terms of speed, how could you be a match for me? So what if your attack power is strong. You won’t be able to land your attacks on me.” Zong Yan sneered in his heart. He was extremely confident in his own speed. Zong Yan did not dare to use Teleportation or Great Teleportation because of the effects from the exchange earlier.However, Zong Yan suddenly discovered that a stick silhouette appeared before him. The stick silhouette was too fast. Its attack was also definitely no weaker than the spear strike that Hei Yu used earlier. Zong Yan was unable to evade it at all. Zong Yan had no choice but to use his two hands to take on the incoming strike.Black Stick against the gold colored hands!“Bang!”Zong Yan’s hands were jolted to numb. A mouthful of blood had also reached his throat from his stomach.“Hey, your Grandfather Hou was already waiting for you from the side. You think you can flee? Haha… “ Hou Fei held the Black Stick with his hands and laughed out loud. Actually, Qin Yu and Hou Fei were located on either sides. They were both observing the Peng Demon Emperor with their Soul’s Power.Once the Peng Demon Emperor tried to flee, they would track him down with their Souls’ Power and then whoever was closest to him would attack to cut him off.“Humph, your strength is indeed pretty decent. However, what about your speed?” Zong Yan’s figure instantly turned into a blur. With repeated movements, he had instantly thrown off Hou Fei and proceed to fly towards outer space.“Bastard, don’t you flee if you have the skills!” Hou Fei was extremely angry.Seeing Hou Fei who was angry yet unable to catch up him, Zong Yan felt a burst of pride. “Qin Yu and his brothers, their strength is each stronger than the other. Especially that Qin Yu. However, in regards to speed… not a single one of them are a match for me.”Just when Zong Yan felt that he had entered into an undisturbed region of the outer space and prepared to use Greater Teleportation…“What’s happening?” Zong Yan was shocked. At this moment, he felt as if he had entered into a deep quagmire. The speed that he prided himself in had instantly decreased by several tens folds. The space in his surroundings seemed to possess a consciousness as it crushed down on him.And at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared before him.“Qin Yu?” Zong Yan saw the black clothed youth before him. He was unable to conceal his fear.If one were to ask who among the three brothers that Zong Yan didn’t want to fight against the most, then it would be the person standing in front of him, Qin Yu! To be able to break the seal on the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple with a single spear strike, no one would want to fight against such a person.“Wasn’t your speed very fast? Didn’t you say that you can flee? Try fleeing.” Said Qin Yu in a low voice.The effortless drifting sensation that he had before was gone. Currently, the entire space was distorted and pressing him down. Zong Yan knew that the speed that he prided himself in had become useless.“What, what is happening?” Zong Yan tried his best to speed up his flying speed. However, Qin Yu was able to catch up to him with merely some effortless steps. Zong Yan’s face had turned red. Sweat had appeared on his forehead.And at this moment, Hou Fei and Hei Yu had also, with speed much faster than that of Zong Yan’s, flown over next to Qin Yu.The three brothers stood next to each other. They looked at the nervous and panicky Peng Demon Emperor who was still trying to run away.Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan felt the oppression in his surroundings. He then looked to Qin Yu and his brothers before him. He suddenly felt that… he was at a dead end.“Bastard, weren’t you able to flee? Try fleeing again.” Mocked Hou Fei. A stick silhouette came crushing down. Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan wanted to dodge it. However, he had lost the agility that he possessed before. That stick landed firmly on his head.“Bang!” Extremely sharp and clear!
Chapter 471 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 44 – Thirty Six Overlapping Waves?Translated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinWith grief and indignation, Zong Yan looked to the three people before him. Among the three people, Hou Fei eyes were filled with ridicule. Hei Yu, on the other hand, had eyes filled with flames of anger. Only Qin Yu preserved a calm expression.“Will I be able to retain my life?” Zong Yan had already begun to despair. He raised his head and looked at Qin Yu.Zong Yan knew very well in his heart that the reason why he was unable to flee with his speed was because of Qin Yu. Although he was still unable to figure out exactly what Qin Yu had done to cause the space to constrict him like so, Zong Yan had grown even more afraid of this Qin Yu.Merely several hundred years after ascending, he possessed strength comparable to that of a level nine Immortal Emperor. Afterwards, he disappeared for over three thousand years. His accomplishments after over three thousand years, one would quake in fear just imagining it.“Big brother, Zong Yan has committed all manners of crimes, whoever it was that obstructed his path, he would always handle them mercilessly. Haven’t we heard from that Ao Ku that this Zong Yan is an absolutely selfish person, a scum who thinks for no one but himself. Hell, I might as well smash his soul with a single stick strike of mine.” Hou Fei fiercely stared at Zong Yan. His black stick seemed to be ready to smash downward at him at any moment.Zong Yan immediately felt a burst of shock in his heart.“Am I going to die?” Zong Yan instantly recalled all the things he had experienced throughout his life. Zong Yan’s life principle was to rather turn his back on everyone in the world, than have the people of the world turn their backs on him. Whoever set themselves against him are the wrong ones, they are his enemies.Only at this moment did Zong Yan feel a bust of disappointment and frustration. “If I were to die, I reckon that no one would grieve for me.”Qin Yu and Hei Yu glanced at each other. Qin Yu spoke.“Zong Yan, I shall give you an opportunity to live.” Qin Yu’s voice had instantly brightened up Zong Yan’s eyes. He raised his head and looked to Qin Yu. However, upon seeing that smile on Qin Yu’s face, Zong Yan felt a burst of humiliation. He raised his chin slightly and said in a cold voice. “Qin Yu, if you want to kill me then go and kill me, don’t you think of humiliating me.”Qin Yu nodded in his heart.As Zong Yan was the Peng Demon Emperor, he still had his pride.“I will not humiliate you.” Said Qin Yu with an indifferent smile. “I reckon that you can also tell now, without even my second brother and third brother, I am able to easily kill you by myself. Furthermore, in front of me, you are simply unable to flee. Zong Yan… am I correct?”Zong Yan nodded and said. “Qin Yu, your strength is enough to convince me. In front of you, I am indeed unable to escape. If I were to die at your hands, all I could blame would be my own ability for being insufficient.”“Since you’re unable to escape, then the opportunity that I shall give you is… to fight against my third brother Hei Yu without fleeing. If you manage to defeat my third brother, I shall let you go. If my third brother is to defeat you, then your fate shall be decided by my third brother Hei Yu personally. During the period where the two of you fight each other, my second brother, Hou Fei, and I will definitely not interfere. What do you think?” Qin Yu proposed his proposal.Although Qin Yu gave this proposal, it was actually Hei Yu who told him to propose this via Voice Transmission.Hei Yu wanted to avenge his parents. If he were to kill Zong Yan with the assistance of Qin Yu, he would not be content no matter what. Only when he fight against Zong Yan himself and kills him would he be able to feel that he had not let his parents down.“Fight against Hei Yu without fleeing?” Zong Yan’s eyes narrowed.Hei Yu looked at Zong Yan coldly. “Zong Yan, what’s wrong? Could it be be that the grand and majestic Peng Demon Emperor is afraid of me?”Zong Yan sneered in his heart.Earlier when he exchanged a blow with Hei Yu, the reason why he was the one losing in the exchange was because he did not use the ultimate move of the Inherited Treasure. If he were to fight against just Hei Yu, Zong Yan believed that he had some certainty that he’d be able to win.“Good, I’ll agree.” Zong Yan looked to Hei Yu while smiling coldly. He then glanced at Qin Yu. “Qin Yu, you must remember that you and that Hou Fei cannot interfere.”“Of course.” Qin Yu nodded.“However, I am afraid of you escaping. Thus, I am going to have you come to my place to fight against my third brother. I am going to take absorb you into it now, do not resist.” Qin Yu said.“Okay.” Zong Yan was extremely straightforward.When his life was no longer on his own hands, why then would Zong Yan fear what tricks Qin Yu might do? Qin Yu also does not have to use any tricks.“Absorb!” Qin Yu’s intention.Zong Yan immediately disappeared from the outer space. He was absorbed into the first layer space in the Jiang Lan’s Realm. Zong Yan didn’t know at all that when Qin Yu had absorbed him into the Jiang Lan’s Realm, he did not plan to let him back out at all.In the first layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.“This, this is a spatial Divine Artifact?” Zong Yan was dumbstruck as he looked to everything before him. He had originally thought that Qin Yu had absorbed him into the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. Never had he expected that it was actually a space.Zong Yan did not believe that Qin Yu would be able to control a space. Thus, his only explanation was that it was a spatial Divine Artifact.“What, do you have any complaints?” While Zong Yan was shocked, Qin Yu and his brothers had also appeared beside him. Zong Yan glanced at Qin Yu. He felt that Qin Yu was even more unfathomable. He replied. “I do not have any complaints. The regulations of this battle, Qin Yu, you can decide it for us.”“Good, since no one has any complaints, then you can start the battle. As for the battlefield…. it shall be that space over there.” With a casual whip of Qin Yu’s hand, an isolated cubic space of a hundred meters height, width and length had appeared.To separate a small space with a casual whip of his hand, this had stunned Zong Yan once again.“Go in there.” With an intention, Hei Yu and Zong Yan were sent into that cubed shaped space. After Zong Yan was sent into it, he had even tried to touch the edge of the cubic space with his energy. However, the cubic space was extremely tough and durable; he was unable to break through it at all.Seeing this scene, Qin Yu merely smiled lightly.“Rise.” With a point of his fingers, the surface of the earth had suddenly split open. At the same time, a large mountain appeared from the surface. In a blink of an eye, a large mountain appeared on the surface.“Fei Fei, let’s go and watch the fight from the top of the mountain. The viewpoint just happens to be the best there.” Said Qin Yu as he smiled. At the same time, he flew to the top of the mountain. Hou Fei also flew over to the top of the mountain; laughing and giggling on the way. “Big brother, you truly know how to enjoy life.”The two brothers stood on the summit next to each other. They looked to the two people in the cubic space not far away from them.“Unless the victory and defeat is established, this battle shall not come to a stop.” Qin Yu said with a clear voice. “Zong Yan, Hei Yu, listen carefully. The space that the two of you shall fight in is only a space that large. It is very simple for the two of you to determine the outcome of the battle. There are two ways; to admit defeat or to be killed. Well then, the two of you can begin.”Right after Qin Yu finished his words, the two people in that hundred meter cubic space started staring at each other. Their auras were rising unceasingly.“Big brother, when you tell the two of them to fight each other head on without fleeing, it appears to be fair. However, to make the two of them fight in such a small space, clearly you are partial toward the Mixed Hair Bird.” Hou Fei was able to tell the reason why Qin Yu made the battlefield so small with a single glance.A cube of a hundred meter distance.For an expert like the Peng Demon Emperor, if he were to exhibit the limit of his speed, then it was likely he’d reach several millions to tens of millions of miles with a single move. However, the area here was merely a hundred meters… for such a small area, the Peng Demon Emperor’s astonishing speed was of barely any use.In such a place, the most important thing was one’s agility.In terms of close combat agility, Hei Yu was most definitely on par with the Peng Demon Emperor. Thus, this had sealed the greatest strength of the Peng Demon Emperor.“We can not talk about things like fairness. The Peng Demon Emperor has trained for all those years yet Xiao Hei has merely trained for about thirty thousand years. For the two of them to fight, is that fair? The Peng Demon Emperor possesses the Inherited Treasure of the Peng Clan. Xiao Hei, on the other hand, does not possess any. Is that fair? Thus, we cannot talk about fairness. I merely provided a slight assistance. After all, the effects of that Inherited Treasure aren’t just solely speed.”Qin Yu’s gaze was fixed on the cubic space. “Let’s not talk anymore, the battle has begun.”Hou Fei immediately also turned to look at the cubic space.Inside the cubic space, the two people were standing opposite each other.“My father Fang Chong, you killed him right?’ Hei Yu’s voice was cold.“You knew?” Zong Yan was unable to refrain his shock. He had still thought that Hei Yu did not know about it. Back then, Qin Yu and them managed to hear about Hei Yu’s identity inside the Jiang Lan’s Realm. Thus, Zong Yan didn’t know about it at all.Furthermore, not long ago, when Hei Yu, Qin Yu and Hou Fei taught Ao Ku a lesson, they managed to receive even more details from Ao Ku.“Killing my parents, between the two of us today, only one shall survive!” Instantly, Hei Yu’s eyes grew red. At the same time, black colored feathers appeared on his body. The black scaled feather on his forehead was radiating an even colder light.Zong Yan merely had a slight smile of ridicule.“A little vile spawn like you wants to kill me?” A quicksilver-like golden liquid began to flow on the surface of Zong Yan’s body. The golden crown on his head radiated a dazzling brilliance. “I shall show you why this ‘Golden Crown’ is the Peng Clan’s Inherited Treasure!”After he finished saying those words, Zong Yan’s body suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared again, he had appeared in front of Hei Yu.A distance of several tens of meters, to these two great experts, cannot be regarded as distance at all.“Chi chi…”As if piercing through space, the golden claws directly pierced through Hei Yu’s chest. However, a strange phenomenon occurred… Hei Yu actually did not bleed at all.After a short period of time, this ‘Hei Yu’ that had his chest pierced through turned into nothingness.It was actually an afterimage!Several hundred afterimages had covered the entic cubic space. Among the several hundred after imagines, more than half of them had Hei Yu’s appearance. Sometimes, more than half of them had Zong Yan’s appearance. And sometimes, they were all the appearance of a single person…“Sometimes, being too fast is also useless. In an instant, he can travel several tens of millions of miles. However, is he capable of displaying that sort of speed completely in a close combat battle?” Hou Fei provided a commentary on the side.Qin Yu nodded in his heart.Zong Yan’s peak speed was extremely fast. Hei Yu’s peak speed was much slower than his. However, in their current close combat battle, that sort of speed was not something that could be used at all.“Chi…” Zong Yan’s golden claws once again grabbed onto Hei Yu’s waist.Originally Zong Yan had thought it to be an afterimage. However, during the instant that he grabbed the waist, he discovered that… it was actually Hei Yu’s true body. Zong Yan was overjoyed. He planned to use this opportunity to seriously injure Hei Yu. However, at this moment, Zong Yan saw a pair of extremely angry red eyes and a black spear.Taking on a serious injury so that he can kill Zong Yan.The greatest reliance that Hei Yu possessed was the strong defense of his Black Feathered Battle Armor.“Die.”Like a rain dragon coming out from its cave, the Cloud Piercing Spear violently arrived before Zong Yan’s eyes. It had reached a distance of merely a palm’s width from his eyes.“Ah~~~~~” The alarmed Zong Yan roared violently.As if it was about to drip blood, the golden crown on his head had instantly turned from golden color to crimson color. The golden light radiating around Zong Yan’s body had instantly turned crimson color.Retreating backward!Zong Yan’s speed had instantly reached an unprecedented limit. Disregarding everything, he flew backwards. The speed of his retreat was even faster than the speed of the incoming spear.Zong Yan managed to escape the incoming spear. However, to reach his peak speed all of a sudden, he was unable to stop right away because the space of the battlefield was too small.“Slow down, SLOW DOWN!” Zong Yan only just managed to escape from the spear but discovered that he had once again came across another crisis…. the membrane on the border of the cubic space. To smash onto the membrane with his top speed, the impact would most definitely cause him to be seriously injured.However, a distance of merely several tens of meters would simply be something that could be traveled in an instant with his top speed.“Bang!”Zong Yan ferociously smashed onto the cubic space’s ‘membrane.’ This membrane possessed an unprecedented hardness. Sounds of bones breaking could be heard for a moment.“Pff!” Zong Yan fell to the ground and vomited mouthfuls of blood in succession.Seizing the opportunity, Hei Yu came rushing at Zong Yan. Zong Yan glared at Hei Yu fiercely and then started to evade him unceasingly. Ever since this moment…. Zong Yan desperately avoided fighting Hei Yu head on again.The two of them were displaying their agility unceasingly.One was a Golden Winged Great Peng, whereas the other was the son of a Dark Electric Great Peng and an Eagle. The confrontation of a Super Divine Beast and a Variation Super Divine Beast.Qin Yu and Hou Fei were extremely concentrated.In terms of agility, the Beast Clan and the Dragon Clan were fundamentally inferior to the Bird Clan. Furthermore, the peak agility of the Bird Clan was ruled by the two great Super Divine Beasts of the Peng Clan.Afterimage. Numerous afterimages. The number of afterimages grew more and more. They filled the entire cubic space. If one were weak, then one would not be able to tell how many blurs there were at all. That was because at any moment, a large number of afterimages were being produced and disappearing.“Ahhhh~~~ Zong Yan, if you have the ability, then come fight me head on!”Hei Yu’s roar sounded in the cubic space.“To focus mostly on yourself and attack your enemy only briefly, this is true way to prevail over one’s opponent.” Zong Yan replied and then stopped saying anything more.“Yoh~~~~”An angry bird cry sounded out. Qin Yu’s expression changed. “It would seem that Xiao Hei has reached the peak of his anger.” Being with Xiao Hei for a long time, Qin Yu knew that Xiao Hei rarely cried out in anger like this. That time when his Royal Father was undergoing the Four-in-Nine Heavenly Tribulation where Qin Yu tried to die with his enemy, Xiao Hei had also cried out in anger like this.“Thirty Six Overlapping Waves, he’s actually using it like this?” Said Hou Fei in surprise.In an instant, numerous black spear silhouettes appeared in the cubic space. That was the spear move that Hei Yu used with his Cloud Piercing Spear.“That move, the Great Ape Emperor has already used it on me a long time ago.” Zong Yan did not care for the incoming strike.“No, it’s not the Thirty Six Overlapping Waves.” Qin Yu’s eyes instead shined. Qin Yu’s eyesight was clearly at a much higher level than Hou Fei’s. He was able to see the true implication behind the numerous spear silhouettes.More than merely Thirty Six Overlapping Waves, there were over a hundred of them. The entire cubic space was filled with spear silhouettes.“Yoh~~~” A mournful bird cry sounded. Hei Yu appeared to have gone berserk. His eyes were scarlet red as he stared at Zong Yan. The corner of his eyes appeared to have been ripped. His aura had soared to the peak!All the silhouettes that covered the entire space had naturally managed to reach Zong Yan. Zong Yan instead did not care for them at all. With attack power separated into over a hundred portions, how would a single one of them be able to damage him?“It’s not the Thirty Six Overlapping Waves?” Hou Fei was puzzled with what Qin Yu had said.Qin Yu was suddenly overjoyed. “It’s the Heavenly Startling Single Stick Strike!”The countless number of spear silhouettes had instantly combined into a single black spear. In the moment before, the spear was still several tens of meters away. However, in a single instant, the spear had, with a mountain splitting, ocean sinking inexhaustible power, reached Zong Yan’s head.“Bang!”The sound of a skull shattering!Peng Demon Emperor’s head was shattered completely. His skull was completely smashed. His soul had scattered!At the moment when Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan had his head smashed, his eyes were still wide open. The only thing he managed to see before his death was a pair of blood filled and extremely frightening eyes.
Chapter 472 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 45 – ReturnTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin“Fuufuu…” Hei Yu held the Cloud Piercing Spear in one hand. He lowered his head and exhaled in a low voice. His eyes that were still a bit red, were firmly staring at the Peng Demon Emperor’s pulverized corpse.His face had an abnormal paleness.At this moment, Qin Yu had removed the space confinement in the surroundings. Qin Yu was able to guess Hei Yu’s current frame of mind. He stopped Hou Fei from moving forward. Only after a short period of time had passed did the two of them fly over to Hei Yu.Qin Yu patted Hei Yu’s shoulder to console him.Hei Yu raised his head. He looked to Qin Yu and then to Hou Fei. A smile appeared on his face. “Big brother, Monkey, I’ve finally personally killed that Peng Demon Emperor and avenged my parents.”The worries within Hei Yu had disappeared. These years, he had always been keeping the vengeance of his parents deep in his heart.“Haha, Monkey, big brother, I’ve grown a lot more relaxed now. You don’t have to worry about me.” Hei Yu said to Qin Yu and Hou Fei.Only then did Hou Fei take a deep sigh. He laughed loudly and said. “Mixed Hair Bird, seeing your expression earlier, I didn’t even dare to breathe. Oh, that’s right, big brother said that the final move you displayed was the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike. Why is it different from the one that big brother displayed back then? It also seemed to be different from the one I taught you. Furthermore, it looked even grander than the one big brother displayed.”Hou Fei had always been very honest to Hei Yu. He had shown Hei Yu all of the earlier stick techniques of the Inherited Prohibited Area and have also explained the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike to him.“Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike? I suppose it could be considered as such.” Hei Yu suddenly stared at Hou Fei with a confused expression. “Monkey, you said that the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike that I displayed was even grander than the one big brother displayed? Are you trying to mock me?”“Why would I?” Hou Fei showed an exaggerated wronged expression. However, this expression had allowed them to know that Hou Fei was indeed trying to make fun of Hei Yu.Although they’re both Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike, they were of different levels.Earlier, because Hei Yu was in a state of extreme anger, he managed to break through the threshold to the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike and execute it directly. Using the Cloud Piercing Spear, he managed to crush the Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan to death.However, Qin Yu was different. The ‘Dao’ that Qin Yu had comprehended was much more profound than the ‘Dao’ contained within the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike. Although the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike that Qin Yu executed appeared to be very ordinary, it had actually reached the peak level.“The final move of the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike is to thrust, why did you smash it instead?” Hou Fei gave voice to his confusion.Hei Yu smiled embarrassedly. He said. “Regarding this, how would I be able to remember the exact methods of the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike at that time? It was merely because I was extremely angry that I entered into a fantastic state of mind. Following my fury, I just smashed down my spear. The reason why I decided to smash it might be because… I felt that it’d help me relieve my hatred if I crush him to pieces.”Better relieve his hatred, that was the reason. Hou Fei and Qin Yu both smiled.“Well then.” Qin Yu smiled as he pointed to the corpse of the Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan. “The other stuff that this Peng Demon Emperor possessed cannot be considered precious. However, that Inherited Golden Crown is a very important artifact.”Qin Yu extended his hand and took the Inherited Golden Crown.“I have heard the Great Ape Emperor Sun Yuan said before.” Hou Fei frowned as he said. “The Dragon Clan and the Peng Clan’s Inherited Treasures are treasures that only people from the Dragon Clan and the Peng Clan respectively, can bind. At the same time… the Inherited Treasure is something passed on from generation to generation and absolutely cannot be taken to the Divine Realm. If someone were to bring this Inherited Golden Crown into the Divine Realm, then it would be likely that the seniors of the Peng Clan in the Divine Realm would spare no effort in killing that person.”“That is easily understood. The seniors of the two clans in the Divine Realm took a large amount of effort in order to send these treasures to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Their purpose in doing that, was precisely to allow their juniors live better. If the treasures were to be brought back up, wouldn’t that mean that all their efforts had been in vain? But, I am thinking… what to do with the Inherited Golden Crown?” Qin Yu turned around to look at Hei Yu. “Xiao Hei, try it out. Your father is after all a Dark Electric Great Peng Bird. It might be possible for you to use that Inherited Golden Crown.”Hei Yu looked at the Inherited Golden Crown. His brows were frowned together.“No, I do not like this Inherited Golden Crown.” Said Hei Yu resolutely.Perhaps he thought of the previous generation’s master of this Inherited Golden Crown or perhaps he thought of his parents dying because of this Inherited Golden Crown. Regardless… Hei Yu loathed the Inherited Golden Crown.“Since you don’t like it, then we might as well return this Inherited Golden Crown back to the Peng Clan. I do not wish to anger the Peng Clan’s seniors in the Divine Realm and have them come chasing to kill us just for a treasure that we cannot use.” Qin Yu casually threw the golden crown aside.As long as the Golden Crown remained in the Jiang Lan’s Realm, Qin Yu was able to get it back at any time.“Okay, let’s return it to the Peng Clan.” Hou Fei also voiced his approval. Qin Yu and Hou Fei looked to Hei Yu. Hei Yu glanced at the Inherited Golden Crown and then also nodded.Demon Realm’s Bird Clan’s Territory. Core planet Black Crow Star. Imperial City.At this moment, some of the Emperor level experts within the Imperial City had started panicking. That was because not long ago, the imperial guards who monitored the soul jade slips inside the Imperial Palace discovered that the soul jade slip belonging to the Peng Demon Emperor, Zong Yan, had shattered.A couple days ago, Ao Ku’s soul jade slip had also shattered. Although that had shocked everyone, it was not enough to cause the Imperial City to panic. However, the Peng Demon Emperor’s death had instead caused a great number of experts to panic.The Peng Demon Emperor who possessed the Inherited Treasure actually died? Who killed him? Who possesses the strength to kill him?Historically, for the Peng Demon Emperors, only a few of them died during their Divine Tribulation. A majority of them managed to live through the Divine Tribulation and ascend to the Divine Realm. Zong Yan was the first Peng Demon Emperor in history to be killed.Where is the Inherited Treasure?The preciousness of the Inherited Treasure greatly surpassed that of the Peng Demon Emperor himself. It was fine for the Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan to die as they could just select a new Peng Demon Emperor. However, if the Inherited Treasure was lost, then the status of the Peng Clan would drop greatly. The status of the entire Bird Clan would also become inferior to the Beast Clan and the Dragon Clan.Inside the main hall of the Imperial Palace.A large number of Emperor level experts of the Bird Clan were gathered here. Compared to several thousand years ago… the Peng Demon Emperor, as well as the three level eight Demon Emperor’s underneath him, were all dead. Currently, the Bird Clan’s strength had become much weaker.“Everyone, first Lord Ao Ku died and now, His Majesty Zong Yan has also fallen…. our Bird Clan has entered a most dangerous period. Currently, the most important thing we must do is to select a new Peng Demon Emperor.” A white gowned old man said in a clear voice. “According to the old rules, the Peng Clan’s two great Super Divine Beasts both possess the qualifications to become the next Peng Demon Emperor. Dark Electric Great Peng Bird, Fang Lan, is currently a level five Demon Emperor. However, the Golden Winged Great Peng Bird Zong Jue is only a level two Demon Emperor. Thus, I think that if Fang Lan were to become the next Peng Demon Emperor, everyone should not have any objection to it, right?”This white gowned old man was a Demon Emperor of top seniority and powerful strength. His words had significant weight behind them.Peng Demon Emperor, that position was usually succeeded by either one of the two great Super Divine Beasts of the Peng Clan. Its selection was to select the strongest one.However, at this moment, Zong Jue walked forward.“Zong Jue, could it be that you want to become the Peng Demon Emperor?” Shouted that white gowned old man.Zong Jue smiled and said. “I do not oppose Brother Fang Lan becoming the next Peng Demon Emperor. However, our Bird Clan’s Lord Ao Ku and His Majesty Zong Yan were both killed by someone, in succession. Even our Inherited Treasure was lost. A Peng Demon Emperor without the Inherited Treasure, how shall he lead the entire Bird Clan, how would our Bird Clansmen be convinced and accept it? Thus, I believe our top priority shall be finding the Inherited Treasure.”“Brother Fang Lan, do you think what I said is correct?” Zong Jue’s gaze was cast toward Fang Lan who stood by the corner.Fang Lan’s eyes had been closed the entire time. Upon hearing Zong Jue’s question, his eyelids were lifted upward. His deep gaze had caused all the surrounding people to feel a sense of fear. Fang Lan said coldly. “Without the Inherited Treasure, the Peng Demon Emperor is not the Peng Demon Emperor.”After he finished saying those words, Fang Lan grew silent again.“Everyone, please suggest how we shall find the Inherited Treasure.” Said the white gowned old man with a loud voice.Immediately, voices of discussions filled the entire main hall. All of these higher echelon experts of the Bird Clan were hard pressed by the issue of the Inherited Treasure. Even after discussing for a long time, they still did not manage to put forward a proposal.Fang Lan stood to the side with his eyes closed as he listened to the chatter of the discussions. He frowned, raised his head and glanced at everyone present. With a cold voice, he said. “Find the Inherited Treasure? Even Zong Yan who possessed the Inherited Treasure was killed by the enemy, even if we were able to find the enemy who has taken the Inherited Treasure, who would be able to defeat him?”Suddenly, everyone was stunned. They all then took a long sigh and grew completely silent.All of them knew that. However, they still decided to discuss. That was because they wanted to put in a bit more effort. However, now that they had listened to Fang Lan, all of them had also given up hope.At this moment, a female among the Emperor level experts said coldly. “Fang Lan, didn’t you say earlier that without the Inherited Treasure, the Peng Demon Emperor is not the Peng Demon Emperor? I reckon you also agree to finding the Inherited Treasure and then decide the Peng Demon Emperor. And now, those words you’ve said, what is your intention? Are you planning to give up looking for the Inherited Treasure?”“Give up?” Fang Lan merely smiled disdainfully. He then closed his eyes again and went back to sleeping on the side, no longer bothering with the others.The group of Bird Clan experts were looking at each other as they stood in the main hall. They were unable to come up with an idea as to what they should do. All they could do, was to end up in groups of two or three and start discussing.They started discussing about the astonishing strength of Zong Yan’s killer. They started discussing what might happen now that they don’t have the Inherited Treasure…“It’s pretty lively here.” A voice suddenly resounded through the entire main hall.In an instant, everyone in the main hall grew silent. It was an absolute silence. At the same time, they had all looked over to the entranceway.They saw three youths walking into the main hall side by side. The locations that they passed, none of the imperial guards actually moved forward to stop their path. These three youths, one was wearing a golden gown, one was wearing a black gown and the last one was wearing a white gown.Even without wind blowing, the gowns were fluttering.The golden gowned youth had a sinister smile on his face. The white gowned youth looked at all the people present with an ice cold gaze. Only the youth in the middle, the youth wearing the black gown, had a peaceful and deep gaze.As the three youths entered into the main hall, the aura that they emitted had caused all of the Demon Emperors within the main hall to hold their breaths. It was like they were being crushed by a large mountain, giving them a feeling of not being able to breathe.“Who are you all?” The white gowned old man possessed the highest strength. He was barely able to resist the pressure of their powers.“Qin Yu, it’s you all?” Zong Jue looked to Qin Yu and his brothers in shock.Qin Yu smiled and nodded to Zong Jue. It could be considered as him greeting Zong Jue.As for Hou Fei who stood beside Qin Yu, he was instead laughing evilly and said. “When Zong Yan was still alive, this place wasn’t this lively. Yet now that he is dead, the place has grown a bit more lively. For us three brothers to come here, we do not have any major business. Merely, after we killed your Peng Demon Emperor Zong Yan, we decided to do a good deed and give you all the Inherited Golden Crown.”After receiving the Inherited Golden Crown from Qin Yu, Hou Fei grope it a couple times and then muttered deliberately. “Why does this Inherited Treasure have the appearance of a golden crown?” As he said this, he even pinched it a couple times.“Stop.” A couple Demon Emperors were unable to refrain themselves and shouted.The Inherited Treasure was the Crown of the successive generations Peng Demon Emperors. It possessed an unsurpassed status in the Bird Clan. It was even more important than the Peng Demon Emperor himself. However, Hou Fei was currently rubbing it as if it was a plaything. How would they not possibly be angry?“If you were to anger your Granddaddy Hou here, then I would not give you this Inherited Golden Crown.” Said Hou Fei with a deep and cold voice.Qin Yu who stood to the side started laughing. Hou Fei’s speed at which he turned hostile was truly fast. However, it was very effective. Immediately, no one in the entire main hall dared to say anything. Even the Peng Demon Emperor had been killed. Furthermore, the aura that Qin Yu and his two brothers were emitting had also displayed the frightening strength that they possessed.Rumor has it that Qin Yu eliminated the seal on the Bewitching God Temple with a single spear strike. This was something that this group of Demon Emperors knew of too. Who would dare to anger the three brothers?“Good, seeing that you all have been obedient, I’ll give it to you.” Like throwing trash, Hou Fei threw the Inherited Golden Crown toward the ground.“Huff!”That white clothed old man was the first to respond. With his body to the ground, he flew forward rapidly and instantly caught the Inherited Golden Crown.Qin Yu slightly nodded to Zong Jue. He then said to Hou Fei. “ Fei Fei, do not waste time with them anymore. Let’s return.” Hou Fei nodded. He then even looked to the Demon Emperors in the main hall with a look of ridicule.Then, like the time when the three of them came, the three brothers walked out side by side. Not a single one of those imperial guards dared to block their path. After they walked to a short distance outside the main hall, Qin Yu and his brothers disappeared into the air.“Huff!” Only now did the group of Demon Emperors manage to have a deep sigh of relief. They were all thinking in their hearts. “Too frightening.”“What is happening with you all?” A Demon Emperor shouted to the imperial guards outside the entrance. “How could you let them strut in like this? Even if you guys cannot block them, you must still try to make it seem like you tried.”Those imperial guards’ heads were drenched with cold sweat. One of the imperial guard leader among them said helplessly. “Your Lordship, it’s not that we didn’t want to block them, but rather that we were unable to move at all.”Immortal Realm. Core planet of the Wind Plate Galaxy, Blazing Sun Star.That was the headquarters of one of the current three great leaders of the Immortal Realm, the Flame Emperor. Qin Yu had arranged his parents and others to the Burning Sun Galaxy. As the Burning Sun Galaxy was the Flame Emperor’s territory, Qin Yu had decided that it was best for him to come and greet the Flame Emperor.The Blazing Sun Star was extremely hot. However, due to the fact that it was the headquarters of the Flame Emperor, there would always be a large number of people arriving at the Blazing Sun Star every day.In the airspace above the Blazing Sun Star. Qin Yu and his two brothers were standing in the air. They were all searching with their souls.“Eh?” Qin Yu suddenly uttered a sound of surprise.“Big brother, is there something shocking? That Flame Emperor’s strength did not increase by much, he’s still a level eight Immortal Emperor.” Puzzled, Hou Fei looked to Qin Yu. Although Hei Yu did not say anything, he also looked to Qin Yu with a puzzled expression.Qin Yu smiled and explained. “No, I am not shocked about the Flame Emperor. What I am shocked about was that I actually discovered a good brother that I befriended in the Immortal Realm, Jun Luoyu!”
Chapter 473 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 46 – High Level DeityTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin“Jun Luoyu?” Hou Fei frowned. He then suddenly realized and said. “Ah, I remember now. Big brother, you once said that you befriended two good brothers on the Blue Flame Star. One was Ao Wuming and the other was this Jun Luoyu.”Back then, Qin Yu merely casually mentioned it. Neither Hou Fei nor Hei Yu had paid much attention to it. Furthermore, neither one of them had seen Jun Luoyu before. Thus, they were naturally unable to differentiate who Jun Luoyu was with their Demon Awareness.“To be honest, the number of experts over here on the Flame Emperor’s side is truly great. There are actually four level eight Immortal Emperors!” Hou Fei gasped in admiration.Qin Yu nodded.Of the four level eight Immortal Emperors, two among them were the Flame Emperor and Jun Luoyu. Never had Qin Yu anticipated that in only about four thousand years, Jun Luoyu would actually become a level eight Immortal Emperor.The title of the Genius Immortal Emperor was truly not false.“Brother Guan Sheng, long time no see. I am Qin Yu.” Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness Voice Transmission had directly sounded in the Flame Emperor’s mind. At Qin Yu’s current level, he does not need to call the Flame Emperor by his title. It was fine for him to just call him directly by his name.At this moment, the Flame Emperor was chatting with his wife in a courtyard. Upon suddenly hearing Qin Yu’s voice transmission, his carefree mood immediately disappeared.“My wife, go and have the maids accompany you. I shall go out for a bit.” Said the Flame Emperor to his wife. At the same time, he immediately covered the entire Blazing Sun Star with his awareness. However, he was unable to find Qin Yu at all.“Qin Yu, Qin Yu has come?” Flame Emperor ‘Guan Sheng’ immediately recalled numerous things.Qin Yu’s achievement of breaking the seal of the Bewitching God Temple with a single spear strike was sufficient to rouse the Flame Emperor Guan Sheng. However, the current Flame Emperor still didn’t know that the Peng Demon Emperor had already been killed by Qin Yu and his brothers.The information regarding who the Peng Demon Emperor was killed by had been completely sealed off by the Emperor level experts of the Bird Clan.“Brother Ye Qun, Brother Peng Ding, Qingqing, Brother Luoyu, quickly, come to the guest room. Qin Yu has come.” The Flame Emperor immediately sent a voice transmission via his Immortal Awareness to these people.In the guest room.Flame Emperor Guan Sheng as well as the other four people were all gathered here. These five people were the people with the strongest power in the Flame Emperor’s Imperial Palace. The Flame Emperor was the one with the strongest power whereas the other four possessed power second only to him.In terms of strength, of the other four people, Jun Luoyu, Ye Qun and Peng Ding were all level eight Immortal Emperors. As for the sole female of the group, Qingqing, she was a level seven Immortal Emperor. However, Qingqing had another identity… Flame Emperor ‘Guan Sheng’s’ younger blood sister.“For Qin Yu to come this time around, it should most likely be related to his father being on the Burning Sun Galaxy. “ Level eight Immortal Emperor Ye Qun wore a body of white clothes. His entire body was radiating a slight plum blossom fragrant.“Wow, Qin Yu, a legendary person. I must definitely take a good look at him this time around.” Said Qingqing with excitement.As the sole girl among the five, the other four people were all extremely and uncritically fond of her. Qingqing wore all red. On her body were numerous jewelries and accessories. Her long hair had also been tied up into tiny braids. There were at least several tens of tiny braids.“Qin Yu is indeed legendary. Especially after looking at the intelligence Brother Guan Sheng presented regarding Qin Yu, I became even more ashamed of myself. When compared to me, he is even more fitting of the title ‘Genius Immortal Emperor.’” Said Jun Luoyu while smiling lightly.Although Jun Luoyu was smiling, he was giving off a sense of bitterness.“Luoyu.” A voice suddenly sounded within the guest room. The five people within the guest room all looked to the entrance. Qin Yu and his two brothers had arrived arrived by the doorsteps.This time around, Qin Yu and his two brothers did not use their aura to oppress others. Last time around, when they were in the Imperial Palace of the Demon Realm’s Bird Clan, they did that on purpose.“Qin Yu.” Jun Luoyu also had a cheerful expression. “Never had I expected that after not seeing you for more than three thousand years, your strength would surpass mine so greatly.”At this moment, the Flame Emperor ‘Guan Sheng,’ Ye Qun, Peng Ding and Qingqing were all surprised. They originally thought that Qin Yu would be coming by himself. However, three people had come. And the most important thing was…. they were unable to detect the souls of any of the three people.Evidently, all three of them had souls surpassing level eight Immortal Emperors. At the very least, their souls were at the ninth Immortal Emperor level.“These two brothers of Qin Yu’s have become much stronger compared to the time when I saw them on the Ridge Peak Star!” Thought the Flame Emperor with shock.At this moment, Jun Luoyu asked. “Qin Yu, if my guess is correct, then these two ought to be the two brothers that you were trying to find? Back then, you wanted to go to the Demon Realm to find your two brothers no matter what, never had I expected that you truly managed to find them. Truly, congratulations.”Jun Luoyu still clearly remembered the days when he was together with Qin Yu and Ao Wuming.“That’s right, this is my second brother Hou Fei.” Qin Yu pointed to Hou Fei. The Flame Emperor ‘Guan Sheng’ was familiar with Qin Yu and his two brothers. However, the rest of the people weren’t. The Flame Emperor’s younger sister, Qingqing, narrowed her eyes from smiling and said. “So it’s actually the successor of the Great Ape Emperor, Hou Fei. However, from how I see it, Hou Fei’s strength should be on par with the Great Ape Emperor.”Hou Fei laughed. “Senior Great Ape Emperor has provided me the kindness of his guidance. However, if we were to compare strength, then it is true that I am not inferior to him.”He didn’t give his own senior face at all. This caused all the people present to be amazed.Qin Yu and Hei Yu who were familiar with Hou Fei’s temperament could only feel helpless in their hearts and then laugh.“This is my third brother, Hei Yu.” Qin Yu said that and then turned to Jun Luoyu. “Brother Luoyu, didn’t you all say back then, that there was definitely no High Level Divine Beast or Super Divine Beast of the Eagle Clan who had ascended in the past two three thousand years?”Jun Luoyu had recalled the time when he, Qin Yu and Ao Wuming had just arrived on the Hidden Emperor Star and met with Meng Hong. Qin Yu had asked Meng Hong and Ao Wuming about the matters regarding his own brothers. Back then, Ao Wuming and Meng Hong were both absolutely certain that within the past two three hundred years, there had not been any High Level Divine Beast from the Eagle Clan to ascend. Furthermore, there was no Super Divine Beast in the Eagle Clan.“Qin Yu, I didn’t say that. It’s Meng Hong and Big Brother Wuming that said that. Why? Is this third brother of yours a High Level Divine Beast or a Super Divine Beast?” Jun Luoyu was unable to refrain his shock as he said that.Hou Fei laughed with his distinct gaga noise. “Mixed Hair Bird is a Variation Super Divine Beast.”The expression of the Flame Emperor and them had immediately changed.Although the Flame Emperor had interacted with Qin Yu and his brothers on the Ridge Peak Star, he, as well as his subordinates, still didn’t know about the fact that Hei Yu was a Variation Super Divine Beast. All they knew was that… the Peng Demon Emperor from back then and Hei Yu had hatred between them.“The banquet has been prepared. Brother Qin Yu, Brother Hou Fei, Brother Hei Yu, please!” Said the Flame Emperor with a smile.During the banquet, after exchanging wines and toasting with each other, the relationship between them also grew more intimate.From the banquet, Qin Yu came to find out about one thing. The Flame Emperor, one of the three major powers of the Immortal Realm, was actually composed through a unity of several second rated powers. Although the Flame Imperial Palace was called the Flame Imperial Palace, it actually had ‘Five Palaces.’These Five Palaces respectively belonged to Flame Emperor Guan Sheng, Ye Qun, Peng Ding, Qing Qin and Jun Luoyu.These five people possessed an equally matched position and were headed by the Flame Emperor.“After I reached the level eight Immortal Emperor level, I left the Seclusion Training Ground and proceeded to the Devil Realm to handle the Devil Emperor Xue Yi. Although I managed to successfully kill Devil Emperor Xue Yi, the Blood Devil Emperor Xue Tianya proceeded to chase after me the entire time. Thus, in the Blood Devil Emperor’s territory, I proceeded to kill my way back into the Immortal Realm.” Jun Luoyu and Qin Yu were chatting about all the stuff that happened in all these years.Only now did Qin Yu find out that Jun Luoyu had finally removed his heart’s binding.“Luoyu, that Xue Tianya was also a level eight Devil Emperor. How did you manage to kill Devil Emperor Xue Yi in his territory and then kill your way back into the Immortal Realm?” Said Qin Yu with a bit of suspicion.Guan Qingqing who had been talking with Qin Yu frequently since the start of the banquet, she who have been filled with curiosity towards Qin Yu, laughed happily and said. “Big Brother Qin Yu, Big Brother Luo Yu is very amazing. He possesses a High Quality Divine Artifact. That Blood Devil Emperor, no matter what he did, was unable to stop Big Brother Luoyu.”“High Quality Divine Artifact?” Qin Yu looked to Jun Luoyu with a puzzled expression.That long sword that Jun Luoyu had before seemed to not be a High Quality Divine Artifact.“Oh, that’s something that I managed to luckily obtain enroute to the Devil Realm after leaving my seclusion training.” Said Jun Luoyu with a slight smile. It seemed as if he payed no attention to the High Quality Divine Artifact.Qin Yu was however suspicious.High Quality Divine Artifacts, they are extremely rare even in the surrounding regions of the Bewitching God Temple. How did this Jun Luoyu managed to obtain one so luckily? Furthermore, he didn’t obtain it in the Bewitching God Temple.Unable to understand it, Qin Yu decided to stop thinking about it.“Luo Yu, how did you come to be with brother Guan Sheng and become one of the five big shots?” Said Qin Yu jokingly.Flame Emperor Guan Sheng who stood to the side said. “The reason why we decided to create this group of power was so that we would not be oppressed by the Cyan Emperor and the Mystic Emperor. We do not have any ambition. As long as others do not provoke us, we will not go and attack others. With the five of us together, we also do not have any relative superiority. Merely, I am usually the one who goes out to handle affairs. Thus, others began to think that I am the head of this power.”Only now did Qin Yu understood.No wonder Jun Luoyu would join them. Likely he knew that joining this group of power would not bring about much burden.“Luoyu, where’s Yan’er? How come I didn’t see her?” Puzzled, Qin Yu asked.Back then, Jiang Yan had followed Jun Luoyu all over. Wherever Jun Luoyu goes, she would go there too. Logically, Jiang Yan should also be on the Blazing Sun Star. So why was it that Qin Yu didn’t see her?“Yan’er has something to do, so she left for a period of time.” Said Jun Luoyu tranquilly.Merely, Qin Yu was able to tell from Jun Luoyu’s eyes that he was concerned about Jiang Yan.“Big Brother Hou Fei, you brothers are truly amazing. Tell us about what you’ve all done.” Seeing that Qin Yu did not pay much attention to her, Guan Qingqing started chatting with Hou Fei. Hou Fei was instead very excited about that. He started talking about all sorts of stuff.The banquet lasted for quite a long time. When the banquet was about to end, a person walked in from the doorway.“Yan’er.” Jun Luoyu looked to the girl outside the door in surprise. A joyous expression then appeared on Jun Luoyu’s eyes. He stood up and walked over. “Yan’er, how come you’ve only arrived here now?”Jiang Yan’s eyes were a bit red and swollen. It seemed that she had not taken note of Qin Yu.Jiang Yan said helplessly. “Big Brother Luoyu, I went to see my granny. Granny told me to go back to train properly. I’m afraid I will be leaving for a very very long time this time around.”“Very long time?” Jun Luoyu’s brows were raised. He then lightly smiled and consoled Jiang Yan. “Go back and properly listen to your granny’s words. Be at ease and train. Only through raising one’s strength will one be able to protect oneself and the things that one holds dear.”“Mn.” Jiang Yan nodded. Suddenly, Jiang Yan’s gaze unintentionally landed on Qin Yu in the distant. Immediately, she was shocked!Qin Yu also looked to Jiang Yan in amazement.From the first instant that he saw Jiang Yan, he had been completely shocked!Jiang Yan was a level one Immortal Emperor? Nonsense!With Qin Yu’s current Divine Awareness’s level and the assistance provided by his Meteoric Tear, Qin Yu was able to clearly sense that… the current Jiang Yan’s soul’s level was even higher than his own. If his guess was correct, she ought to be at the peak of Deity level… High Level Deity!To personally meet a High Level Deity in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, especially someone who he knew before with a strength that was only so-so. This sort of shock was something that didn’t need much explanation.“Could it be that Jiang Yan, in merely several thousand years, managed to have her soul reach the High Level Deity stage? Furthermore, she even said earlier, that her granny wants her to return to properly train… properly train for a High Level Deity?”Qin Yu had grown completely suspicious.Back then, when he determined that Jiang Yan was a level one Immortal Emperor could also be a mistake. With his soul’s level back then, if a High Level Deity wanted to disguise her strength, he would be unable to see through her at all.Poor Jun Luoyu, even now, he still didn’t know about the strength of the ‘little sister Yan’er,’ that he protected.“This Jiang Yan is actually a High Level Deity? Then what about Granny Yin Hua?” Qin Yu frowned. Upon thinking of this, suddenly, numerous scenes had appeared in Qin Yu’s mind.For example, the respectfulness that the Cyan Emperor displayed toward Granny Yin Hua.For example, on the Ridge Peak Star, the Peng Demon Emperor’s attack was easily intercepted by Granny Yin Hua even though she moved later.Even Qin Yu himself, even with his current strength, he was still inferior to the Peng Demon Emperor in terms of speed. He was only able to match up to the Peng Demon Emperor if he controlled the space to oppress him. Yet, back then, Granny Yin Hua did not oppress the Peng Demon Emperor’s speed. Instead, she surpassed him with just her speed.Furthermore…The Cyan Emperor who could easily bind the Peng Demon Emperor, Emperor Yu and them, such a hidden and forbearing super expert, when confronted with Granny Yin Hua, was still that respectful.And now, even Jiang Yan addressed Granny Yin Hua as granny. There was no longer a need to guess about the strength of Granny Yin Hua.“Qin Yu, do not mention of my strength!”At the first moment Jiang Yan noticed Qin Yu, she immediately sent him a voice transmission via Divine Awareness.Jiang Yan was able to ascertain with her Divine Awareness that Qin Yu’s soul was at a very high level. When compared to her own, it was merely a bit weaker. Even if she were disguised, someone at Qin Yu’s level would still be able to sense her soul. Especially the shocked expression that Qin Yu had, it showed that… Qin Yu had managed to see her true strength.“I won’t tell. However, you must have a chat with me later.” Qin Yu replied back with Divine Awareness Voice Transmission.“Okay.” Said Jiang Yan very straightforwardly.While talking with Qin Yu via Divine Awareness Voice Transmission, she was also talking with Jun Luoyu. “Big Brother Luo Yu, according to what granny said, this time around, my training will last for a very long time. I reckon that even after you ascend to the Divine Realm, I will still be in training.”Jun Luoyu’s brows were raised. The expression on his face changed slightly. Immediately after, he consoled her. “It’s okay. If fate has it, then it is not too late for us to meet again in the Divine Realm.”“Oh.”Jiang Yan nodded somewhat sadly. She then turned around and displayed a very pleasantly surprised expression when she saw Qin Yu. “Ah, Big Brother Qin Yu, you’re also here?”
Chapter 474 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 47 – Jiang Yan’s IdentityTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinQin Yu started smiling in his mind. This Jiang Yan had truly disguised her identity especially well.“Yan’er, so you still know that I’m here. From the way I see it… as long as Jun Luoyu stands somewhere, your concentration would all be on him, disregarding the existence of everything else.” Mocked Qin Yu.Jiang Yan’s face turned red.“Big Brother Qin Yu, you joke too much.” Scolded Jiang Yan with a smile.Jiang Yan’s arrival had caused the banquet to end at an earlier time. Afterwards, a residence was arranged for Qin Yu and his brothers. As for Jiang Yan, she had gone to Jun Luoyu’s residence.“Big Brother Qin Yu, I will call for you later via Divine Awareness Voice Transmission. At that time, we can see each other again.” Said Jiang Yan via voice transmission when she was leaving with Jun Luoyu.Qin Yu had no other choice but to resist the confusion and curiosity within his heart.Qin Yu and his brothers were arranged to a quiet courtyard manor.“Big brother, we’ve already given them enough face to attend their banquet. Now that the banquet is over, isn’t it fine for us to leave now? Why are we still staying here?” Muttered Hou Fei.Qin Yu smiled helplessly. “Fei Fei, don’t you think that I too wanted to leave earlier? However, I still have to meet someone later.”“Someone?” Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked to Qin Yu. “Big brother, whoever you had planned to meet, can’t you just go and meet them directly? Why are we wasting time waiting here?”With but a thought, Qin Yu created an ordinary barrier around their surroundings. This barrier isolated their voices from being heard outside.“That’s because this person is a Deity!” Said Qin Yu slowly.“Deity? From the Divine Realm?” Hei Yu and Hou Fei’s expression changed. At this moment, the two of them had their eyes wide open.Qin Yu lightly smiled and said. “Do not make a fuss about nothing. It’s not like the two of you haven’t met a Divine Realm’s expert before. Uncle Lan, with his strength, I am certain that he is one of the top experts in the Divine Realm.” Qin Yu said confidently.Hei Yu and Hou Fei recalled their weapons.Cloud Piercing Spear, Black Stick. Their appearance was just black and seemed to be very ordinary. They looked like wood yet also looked like metal. However, in terms of hardness, Hou Fei and Hei Yu had never discover anything that could damage either their weapons.“Uncle Lan is indeed very powerful.” Hei Yu said as he nodded.“Uncle Lan is my master. He’s that powerful, however he never taught me any powerful martial techniques. All he gave me was a weapon. Really…!” Muttered Hou Fei as if he was discontent with it.Qin Yu suddenly stood up.Hou Fei and Hei Yu immediately stopped talking. They both looked to Qin Yu at the same time. Hei Yu asked in a low voice. “Big brother, are you going to meet that Deity now?”“Mn.” Qin Yu nodded. He then casually removed the barrier and prepared to leave.“Who is that person?” Hou Fei asked hurriedly.However, Qin Yu’s body had moved and he had disappeared into thin air. Only a voice sounded in Hou Fei and Hei Yu’s minds. “That Deity, her name is ‘Jiang Yan.’ Remember, do not leak her identity.”“Jiang Yan?” Upon hearing this response from Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu naturally began to recall that girl from the banquet. The two of them looked to each other.On a certain place on the waist of a tall brown mountain on the Blazing Sun Star was a man and a woman.Qin Yu was carefully measuring Jiang Yan who stood in front of him.Jiang Yan was extremely beautiful and adorable. Her pair of large eyes were also extremely quick-witted. Qin Yu had never expected for such a cute girl to actually be someone from the Divine Realm.“Jiang Yan, I truly have never expected you to be someone from the Divine Realm. You have truly deceived me, Luoyu and Big Brother Wuming.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.Jiang Yan slightly frowned with a confused expression. With a teasing tone, she asked. “Qin Yu, your soul’s level is that high and you even know about my identity. Aren’t you afraid that I might kill you to silence you?”Kill to silence?Qin Yu smiled. Before he could reply, Jiang Yan had already continued. “Soul’s level only represents your comprehension of the spatial laws. However, the energy you have in your body is not Divine Energy nor Heavenly Divine Energy. Thus, your possession of your powerful soul is in vain as your body’s strength is truly too weak. If I truly wanted to kill you… I reckon I can do that with a single strike.”“Really?” Qin Yu smiled as he looked to Jiang Yan.“Eh…” Jiang Yan was slightly startled. She immediately said. “On the premise that you do not hide into the Jiang Lan’s Realm!” Right after she said those words, Jiang Yan immediately covered her mouth. She knew that she had blurted out something she was not suppose to say.Qin Yu on the other hand merely smiled.“Jiang Yan, don’t hide anymore. Tell me, how do you know about the Jiang Lan’s Realm? There is only a small number of people in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm that know of the Jiang Lan’s Realm and all of them are people that I trust completely. It is impossible for you to know about it from the side of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Let me be frank, what is the relationship between you and Uncle Lan?” Qin Yu looked to Jiang Yan with a smiling yet not a smiling expression.[TL: This might be a hint. Jiang Yan’s surname Jiang is the Jiang in Jiang Lan’s Realm. Uncle Lan’s Lan is the Lan in Jiang Lan’s Realm. Hint hint.]Qin Yu did not wish to make things difficult for Jiang Yan. However, he also does not fear Jiang Yan.In terms of strength… as Qin Yu possessed the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact Divine Spear ‘Waning Snow,’ his attack power was extremely astonishing. So what if Jiang Yan was a High Level Deity? After all, according to the master of the Bewitching God Temple, Heavenly Divine Artifacts are usually items that only Heavenly Deities would possess. As for a High Level Deity, even if her luck was to be good and her status was to be tall, it was still likely that she would only possess a Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact.Jiang Yan sighed helplessly and said. “Qin Yu, you are truly amazing. Fine, I’ll tell you about some stuff. Yes, I know Uncle Lan. That’s because he is my uncle.”“Uncle?” Confused, Qin Yu said.“That’s right, he’s my real uncle!” Said Jiang Yan seriously.Qin Yu was startled.Uncle Lan was actually Jiang Yan’s real uncle? In that case, their relationship would certainly be extremely close. Uncle Lan ought to be real blood brothers with Jiang Yan’s father then. In that case, who was Granny Yin Hua? What relationship does Li’er have with them?“Ever since that time when the Heaven Startling Battle occurred in the Divine Realm, uncle had become somewhat cold, detached and sad. However, that was also the time when my uncle became extremely concerned about my big sister.”Jiang Yan frowned. It seemed that she was a bit puzzled. She continued. “I also do not understand why. In the past, although my uncle was pretty good to me, my big sister, and others of our same generation, he could not be considered as extremely fond of any of us. However, after the Heaven Startling Battle, my uncle became very concerned about my big sister and would not allow anyone to bully her.”“Uncle is extremely powerful. Although he is a maverick among our clan, even my father would not go and provoke him.” Said Jiang Yan as she sighed. “Not long ago, my Uncle had forged an amazing treasure.”Jiang Yan looked to Qin Yu with eyes of envy. “Qin Yu, did you know? This treasure was something that my uncle spent numerous years of hard work on. Furthermore, it was something that he managed to create only after using many precious materials. My father had wanted my uncle to gift the treasure to our entire clan and make it to be one of our clan’s Clan Protection Treasures! He was even willing to use many of our clan’s precious items in exchange for it. However, my uncle still didn’t agree to it!”“I suspect you have also guessed what that treasure was. Yes, it’s the ‘Jiang Lan’s Realm.’” Said Jiang Yan as she sighed.Qin Yu subconsciously clenched his fist. He opened them and them clenched them again only to open them again.“My uncle is someone without much concern of the worldly matters. If there is something that he still cares about, then that would be my big sister. It’s truly strange… why is it that after that Heaven Startling Battle, my uncle suddenly started treating my big sister as his true daughter?” Said Jiang Yan with a puzzled tone.“Jiang Yan.” Qin Yu suddenly spoke.“Mn?” Jiang Yan looked to Qin Yu.“That sister you spoke of, is her name ‘Jiang Li?’” Qin Yu’s gaze was firmly fixed on Jiang Yan. Hearing all this, if Qin Yu still cannot guess who she was, then he would truly be an idiot.Jiang Yan said with an astonished tone. “You’re truly intelligent. That’s right, my sister is called ‘Jiang Li.’”“Li’er, Li’er.” Qin Yu muttered.After all these years, Qin Yu’s heart had already become hard like steel. However, upon hearing news regarding Li’er, upon remembering the time that he spent together with Li’er in the Mortal Realm, even though his heart had already turned hard like steel, it was still thawed and turned extremely soft.Seeing Qin Yu’s expression, Jiang Yan lowered her head slightly and said in a low voice. “It would appear that you are worthy for my sister to do such a thing.”“Can you tell me some information about how Li’er is doing in the Divine Realm?” Qin Yu violently raised his head. Like a sharp sword, his gaze shot toward Jiang Yan. His deep longing desire was clearly visible from his gaze.Jiang Yan grew silent for a moment before nodding and saying. “I’ll tell you a bit then. Although granny doesn’t allow me to say much.”Qin Yu’s heart jumped. Granny doesn’t allow her to say much, that granny ought to be Granny Yin Hua.“Qin Yu, your guess is correct. My big sister is Jiang Li. She is also that Li’er you came to know back then. It’s good that you haven’t forgotten about her. Had you not been loyal to her, then much less my granny, I would be the first one to teach you a lesson and let you have a taste of my methods.” Jiang Yan fiercely waved her arm.Qin Yu smiled.Comparing the temperaments of the two sisters, Jiang Yan was cute yet barbarous whereas her sister was quiet and gentle. They were completely different.“Mn, your current performance is still satisfactory. Regarding my sister, sigh, let me first tell you a strange thing. In the Divine Realm, a girl’s appearance is not important. Even her temperament is not of much concern. After all, when one’s soul reaches that level, one would have one’s own special quality. There are no one who’s mediocre. In normal circumstances, there are rarely any girl that would be pursued by a great amount of people.”Jiang Yan pouted. “However, my big sister is different. Ever since that Heaven Startling Battle ended, my sister unexpectedly started to be sought after by a countless number of elites in the Divine Realm. A large number, a very large number of them!”Qin Yu raised his brows.Seemed like there were a lot of love rivals.Suddenly, Qin Yu seemed to recall something. He said. “Yan’er, you mean that… before that so called ‘Heaven Startling Battle,’ there were not a lot of people pursuing Li’er?”“That’s more or less like it.” Jiang Yan nodded and said. “Originally, although there were people pursuing my sister, they did not amount to a lot; merely a couple. To be pursued by a couple people is still something very ordinary in the Divine Realm.”Qin Yu immediately started to grow suspicious regarding that ‘Heaven Startling Battle.’“However now, wow, a large amount of Divine Realm’s elites are frantically pursuing my big sister! Those without status were knocked to the side! Those without strength were also knocked to the side! If one doesn’t have status and strength, then don’t even think about it. If one hasn’t reached the Heavenly Deity level, one wouldn’t even dare to talk to my big sister!” Gasped Jiang Yan.Qin Yu opened his eyes wide.He had already anticipated that there would be a lot of people pursuing after Li’er. However, after hearing what Jiang Yan had just said, it would appear that the number of people pursuing after her was even more frightening than he had imagined.“Those who sought my big sister, each and every one of them were exceptional people in the Divine Realm. Those who have personally announced that they sought after her, the weakest one among them was a Low Level Heavenly Deity. However, even though he is only a Low Level Heavenly Deity, his status is extremely high. Furthermore, he is extremely exceptional in the matters of ‘forging artifacts.’” Sighed Jiang Yan.Qin Yu slowly exhaled.Pressure!It was as if a mountain were crushing down on his heart.Qin Yu was able to imagine what group of people those who pursued Li’er were. The weakest among them was already a Low Level Heavenly Deity. Clearly… if one does not possess the strength of a Heavenly Deity, one could just forget about pursuing her. Furthermore, among those people, some of them possess extremely exceptional strength and status.“However, you shouldn’t be discouraged. Who is my big sister? Firstly, standing behind her is our clan. Secondly, my uncle is determined to stand behind her. Much less other people, even my father is unable to force my big sister to be with someone.” Said Jiang Yan while smiling.Qin Yu started thanking Uncle Lan.As Li’er was a weak woman, even if she wanted to resist, she would likely end up becoming unable to resist without the support of Uncle Lan behind her.“My big sister had announced to the others that she wanted to wholeheartedly train and doesn’t want to talk about matters of marriage. Using this method, she managed to refuse countless amount of Divine Realm’s elites…. Although there are currently still a group of high status and strong individuals purusing her, I know that the one that my big sister likes is you.” Acting like she was mature, Jiang Yan patted Qin Yu’s shoulders. “Future brother-in-law of mine, you must continue to put in effort. Don’t disappoint my sister.”With Jiang Yan patting his shoulder, Qin Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry.However, that ‘brother-in-law’ gave Qin Yu a very comfortable feeling.“Jiang Lan’s Realm is very precious. Truly… even in the Divine Realm, it belongs to those apex quality treasures. Even the ‘Craftsman God’ Chehou from back then, when he was still in the Divine Realm, with his comprehension of the spatial laws, it wais impossible for him to create an artifact like the Jiang Lan’s Realm.” Gasped Jiang Yan.Qin Yu’s eyes shined.‘Craftsman God’ Chehou? Could it be that Bewitching God Temple’s master, Chehou Yuan? According to what Chehou Yuan had said, his ability to forge artifacts was second to none in the Divine Realm. He was indeed qualified to be called the ‘Craftsman God.’Qin Yu did not press on to question further regarding Chehou Yuan. That was because he didn’t want the matter regarding him succeeding as the next master of the Bewitching God Temple to be leaked. This was to be an important tool to assist him in moving about in the Divine Realm unhindered.“Jiang Yan, you said that ‘Craftsman God’ is also unable to create an artifact like the Jiang Lan’s Realm. Is this Jiang Lan’s Realm truly that precious?” Qin Yu grew a bit curious as to how precious the Jiang Lan’s Realm was.Jiang Yan glanced at Qin Yu. “Let me advise you that after your strength become sufficient in the future, you should return the Jiang Lan’s Realm to Uncle Lan. This treasure… could be considered as Uncle Lan’s first Spiritual Treasure. I truly don’t understand why he was willing to give it to you. Even if you are my big sister’s future husband, it is still insufficient for my uncle to give you the Jiang Lan’s Realm.”Qin Yu’s expression changed.The Jiang Lan’s Realm was actually Uncle Lan’s first Spiritual Treasure. This information had truly shocked Qin Yu.Spatial Divine Artifacts are hard to refine and create. However, to be called ‘Spiritual Treasure,’ the Jiang Lan’s Realm ought to be an Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. For Uncle Lan to be able to successfully create it, he must’ve used a large amount of mental and physical effort. Back then, when Uncle Lan gave the treasure to him, he had casually told Qin Yu that it was a Divine Artifact. It would appear that Uncle Lan was afraid that Qin Yu would not accept the treasure because of how great it was.Gifting away his first Spiritual Treasure? Who would be able to reach up to such boldness? However, such a behavior had also shown the concern that Uncle Lan had for Qin Yu.Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from being boundlessly thankful for Uncle Lan.
Chapter 475 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 48 – Granny Yin Hua’s WarningTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinAs Qin Yu listened to Jiang Yan’s speech, he deeply remembered every single sentence that she said, so that he could analyze the hidden meaning behind every sentence.As he analyzed those words, he managed to come up with a lot of theories.One cannot speak more than needed. If one does, then one would easily let words slip!When Jiang Yan was telling Qin Yu, although she remembered the stern order given to her by Uncle Lan, Granny Yin Hua and everyone, telling her that she was not allowed to speak of some important matters, she still managed to unintentionally expose some of the hidden information. Although she did not pay attention to it as she was speaking, Qin Yu instead managed to guess all of them.“Yan’er, you said earlier that your big sister only started to become pursued by a large amount of people after the ‘Heaven Startling Battle;’ and that it was also at that time Uncle Lan became overly concerned about her. Can you tell me what kind of battle this ‘Heaven Startling Battle was?’” Qin Yu asked.Qin Yu’s intuition told him that all of the changes ought to be related to this ‘Heaven Startling Battle.’“The Heaven Startling Battle is of course an extremely amazing battle. It’s merely some of the powerful experts of the Divine Realm fighting each other. What’s special about it?” Jiang Yan was not at all enthusiastic toward that ‘Heaven Startling Battle.’“Which experts?” Qin Yu continued asking.“You won’t know them even if I tell you about it. How many people of the Divine Realm do you know? Among those in the battle, much less you, even I don’t know many of them.” Jiang Yan curled her lips and said.Qin Yu nodded.Regarding this ‘Heaven Startling Battle,’ Qin Yu was also not in a rush to know more about it. After all, the current him doesn’t know anything about the famous people or the numerous powers of the Divine Realm. It was not too late for him to slowly investigate the Heaven Startling Battle after he has reached the Divine Realm.What Qin Yu longed for the most, what he wanted to know the most was… where exactly in the Divine Realm was Li’er’s home?!Qin Yu looked at Jiang Yan and said with a serious tone. “Yan’er, is it possible for you to tell me where in the Divine Realm is your home located?” Qin Yu merely needed to know the name of the location. As long as he knew the name, it would become very easy for him to search for it after he reaches the Divine Realm.Jiang Yan looked to Qin Yu with a smile yet not a smile.“Qin Yu, hehe, I knew that you would ask that. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you.” Said Jiang Yan with a smile.Qin Yu frowned. “Yan’er, I know that this might be an order given to you by Uncle Lan or Granny Yin Hua. However, I still wish that you can tell me where exactly Li’er lives. You ought to be able to understand the impatience in my heart.” Qin Yu was staring at Jiang Yan.Jiang Yan felt somewhat uncomfortable being stared at by Qin Yu.She too knew about the relationship between her big sister and Qin Yu. Jiang Yan who loved dreaming had even thought this relationship, the love between a youth from the Mortal Realm and a girl from the Divine Realm was very romantic.“I….” Jiang Yan was about to refuse.Qin Yu immediately interrupted. “Yan’er, in all these years, from the time when I was in the Mortal Realm till now, I have been trying my hardest the entire time! I have never once given up. All I want is to know the location where your sister, Li’er, is at right now.”“I understand that,” Qin Yu took a deep sigh, “the reason that Uncle Lan and everyone doesn’t want me to know about Li’er’s location, is most likely because they are worried that I would be unable to hold myself back and would rush to her immediately after reaching the Divine Realm only to encounter danger. Is that right?”Jiang Yan nodded. She didn’t say anything, she merely looked at Qin Yu.Qin Yu smiled bitterly. “Unable to hold myself back? Indeed. This has been in the depths of my heart for all these years; I do not even have any means of getting in touch with Li’er. Do you know how much I wish to hear Li’er’s voice? Unfortunately, I can only hear her voice in my dreams.”Qin Yu closed his eyes. “Even though several thousand years have passed, once I close my eyes, I am able to clearly see the smiles and the scowls that Li’er had shown me before. It is so clear like it was engraved in my soul. Unless my soul gets scattered, I would never forget about it in eternity.”Qin Yu suddenly stepped forward. He grabbed Jiang Yan’s shoulders with his hands. He opened his eyes and stared at Jiang Yan. “Yan’er, I ask of you, please, I ask of you! You can be at ease, I will not be impulsive. Having wandered the world for all these years, I am already no longer that foolish youngster that doesn’t know about anything. I know how to endure silently, I know!”Qin Yu’s tone was very firm. His eyesight was burning.As if she had been influenced by Qin Yu, Jiang Yan took a deep breath and then said slowly. “Okay then, I’ll trust you.”Qin Yu was overjoyed. He then pricked up his ears to carefully listen to what Jiang Yan was about to say.Jiang Yan said slowly. “My big sister is currently still in the clan. The location where our clan is located in is the Divine Realm’s…” Upon reaching this part, Jiang Yan’s voice grew silent.Qin Yu looked to her. He was shocked to discover that Jiang Yan’s mouth was moving but no voice was being sounded.“Yan’er, you are too hot-headed.” A voice sounded.With a silver flower hairpin on her head, with an appearance like that of an kind elderly lady, Granny Yin Hua was walking over with her walking stick. And only at this moment did Qin Yu manage to sense that… the space surrounding Jiang Yan had been completely distorted. It was as if it had been separated from the external world.Jiang Yan immediately started acting coquettishly and begged for forgiveness. Although Qin Yu was unable to hear her voice, he was able to guess it just by looking at her coquettish appearance.“I’ll let this time pass, sigh.” Said Granny Yin Hua helplessly.“Thank you granny.” The distorted space surrounding Jiang Yan had instantly returned to normal.Qin Yu was certain about one thing: This Granny Yin Hua’s ability to control the space surpassed his own by far. It was so great, that even with the assistance of the Meteoric Tear, Qin Yu was still unable to detect the slightest aura from her.Qin Yu knew that with the assistance from the Meteoric Tear, his Divine Awareness had barely reached the level of Low Level Heavenly Deities. From this, he was able to determine that… Granny Yin Hua’s strength was greater than that of a Low Level Heavenly Deity.“Yan’er, you ought to know about how serious this matter is. If this foolish boy were to be truly unable to resist himself in the end and frantically go to your home to find Li’er, then once the news of that spreads, this foolish boy would then lose his life. Then….” Granny Yin Hua shook her head and sighed.Jiang Yan didn’t dare to say anything anymore.“Your big sister is a very gentle and quiet person. However, her heart is extremely unyielding. The things that she determines, there is no one who can force her to change her mind. With your sister’s temperament, if this boy were to die, then even if your big sister did not search for death with him, her temperament would likely still take a huge change.” Granny Yin Hua’s tone was serious. “I have watched you and your big sister grow up, there is no one who knows the temperament of you two sisters better than I.”Qin Yu’s heart moved as he continue to hear from the side.This Granny Yin Hua was the one who raised Jiang Yan and Li’er.“Qin Yu, you ought to have guessed my identity. That’s right. I’ve raised Yan’er and Li’er. Their meals, their sleep schedule, their training and even their amusements were all my responsibilities. In my heart, I have long since considered them to be my own granddaughters.” Granny Yin Hua coughed and said.“Granny.” Jiang Yan grabbed one of Granny Yin Hua’s arm. She rocked it back and forth and shouted like a spoiled child.“Okay, stop fooling around.” Granny Yin Hua smoothed Jiang Yan. She then turned around to look at Qin Yu. “Qin Yu, there are not many things that Li’er would conceal from this old woman. I know of the things between the two of you. I also know what Li’er is thinking in her heart. Thus, I support Lan, Lord Lan’s plan.”As Qin Yu heard Granny Yin Hua, he took note of the ‘Lord Lan.’What does Lord Lan signify?Does it merely signify that within Li’er’s clan, Uncle Lan possessed a higher status that Granny Yin Hua?“Thus, Li’er true identity, where Li’er is at, and everything else; neither I nor Yan’er will tell you about them…. when the time comes, Lord Lan will naturally tell you about them.” Said Granny Yin Hua.Qin Yu nodded.From Granny Yin Hua’s tone as well as her gaze, Qin Yu was able to tell that she was not someone that could be persuaded just by using emotions.“I know that Lord Lan regarded you as very important. Furthermore, he believed that your future prospects are boundless. He firmly supported you being together with Li’er. Haha…. Qin Yu, let me tell you, had it not been for Lord Lan, it would’ve been impossible for Li’er to resist her father’s command.” Laughed Granny Yin Hua.Qin Yu didn’t say anything. He merely continued to listen.“To Lord Lan, you are someone with boundless future prospects. This time, the reason why Yan’er and I came to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was precisely to see who exactly is the genius that Lord Lan had regarded as so important. However, the first time I saw you, I was relatively disappointed.” Granny Yin Hua spoke without holding anything back.Qin Yu was still silent as before.He too came to understand now why Jiang Yan was especially interested in him the first time he met her. So it turned out that these two people came to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm precisely to check him out.“I was unable to see what exactly about you deserves for Lord Lan to regard you with such importance!” Said Granny Yin Hua with a very heavy tone.Granny Yin Hua’s manner of speaking was unpleasant to hear. Thus, Qin Yu was unable to refrain from slightly frowning.“That was the reason why the battle of the Reef Yellow Star came to be. Emperor Yu used the great formation array to bind you. I wanted to use this to see your potential. If you are to be unable to break through even such a difficulty, then in the Divine Realm with numerous more obstructions, how would you be able to break through them?” Granny Yin Hua started smiling. “However, from what it seems now. Lord Lan is worthy of being Lord Lan, his foresight is far above mine.”At this time, the gaze Granny Yin Hua looked at Qin Yu was like the gaze a mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law — extreme fondness.“Not merely above but far far above!” Granny Yin Hua gasped in admiration incessantly. “No matter how hard I try, I am unable to understand how, with your aptitude, since last time we met, in merely a bit over three thousand years, your soul has actually reached such a level; it’s about to reach the High Level Deity stage.”While one’s strength was easy to train, one’s soul was hard to train.“Usually, the time it would require for one’s soul to reach the Low Level Deity stage from the level nine Immortal Emperor stage would be extremely long. To reach the Mid Level Deity stage from the Low Level Deity stage is even more difficult! Under normal circumstances, for one’s soul to reach the Low Level Deity stage from level nine Immortal Emperor stage would require close to a hundred million years.”“However, you, in merely over three thousand years, such an aptitude… I have never seen such a frightening speed before in my entire lifetime.” Granny Yin Hua shook her head and ridiculed herself. “And here I was, thinking that your aptitude was not up to much. Lord Lan’s vision is truly vicious.”As Granny Yin Hua said those words, she had walked up to Qin Yu.She patted Qin Yu’s shoulder and then said kindly. “With your astonishing cultivation speed, if you were to persist on training, I think…. in several tens of thousand of years, you’ll be able to reach the Heavenly Deity stage. With your astonishing aptitude and the assistance from Lord Lan, it is still possible for you to be together with Li’er.”Qin Yu nodded.“Although you possess an astonishing aptitude, I am still unable to determine how your aptitude is so astonishing.” Thought Granny Yin Hua in her heart. “How is it possible that in merely over three thousand years, his soul would be able to reach such a state?”At this moment, Qin Yu said. “What granny had said, Qin Yu will firmly remember it in his heart. Is there anything other advice granny might have for Qin Yu?”Towards Granny Yin Hua who had raised Li’er, Qin Yu was extremely respectful.Granny Yin Hua said in realization. “Now that you mentioned ‘advice,’ I remembered something very important. Granny Yin Hua’s expression grew serious. Solemnly, she said. “Qin Yu, you must remember this thing.”Qin Yu was startled by Granny Yin Hua’s expression. His ears immediately opened wide to listen to what Granny Yin Hua was about to say.“There’s something very important?” Jiang Yan who stood to the side muttered in confusion.Granny Yin Hua then said to Qin Yu. “From your current strength, I can tell that your Divine Tribulation should be coming soon. The thing that I am about to tell you is in regard to the Divine Tribulation. Qin Yu, you must remember that when you are undergoing the Divine Tribulation to not use the Jiang Lan’s Realm. Furthermore, you must also not use your hidden trump cards.”“Trump cards?” Qin Yu looked to Granny Yin Hua with a confused expression.Qin Yu had already decided that he was going to take on the Divine Tribulation with Hei Yu and Hou Fei. At that moment, the three brothers would be able to ascend to the Divine Realm together. With the three of them taking on the Divine Tribulation together, it was possible that the might of the Divine Tribulation would increase greatly. However, Qin Yu was still very confident in himself.“Why am I not allowed to use it? When I take on the Divine Tribulation, I will definitely be doing it in a hidden location. Even if I were to use the Jiang Lan’s Realm, others would not know about it. No one would know about it. So why not?” Qin Yu was a bit confused.Granny Yin Hua shook her head and said with a slight smile. “There’s someone who will know! The people from the Divine Realm! Qin Yu, let me tell you, the Divine Realm is not as simple as you imagine it to be. Did you perhaps think that the Divine Realm merely possesses some powerful experts separated into a few different powers?”Qin Yu was stunned.“No, the Divine Realm is involved in the operation of the cosmos, it involves the cosmic space. In short, the Divine Realm is extremely complicated. It is not as simple as you imagine it to be. If you do not wish to create difficulties for yourself, then when you are undergoing the Divine Tribulation, do not use the Jiang Lan’s Realm or your hidden trump cards.” Granny Yin Hua said.Qin Yu came to realize.“If the treasure I use to take on the Divine Tribulation are too powerful, then they would likely be lusted after by the big shots in the Divine Realm.” Qin Yu thought in his heart. “However, even if I do not use powerful treasures, it is still very easy for me to take on the Divine Tribulation.”Qin Yu was extremely confident.“Well then, this is all that I want you to know. Just remember these two points. First, when undergoing the Divine Tribulation, hide all your trump cards. Second, do not be reckless and go find Li’er. When your strength reaches the needed level, Lord Lan will naturally come to your assistance.”After Granny Yin Hua finished her words, she looked to Jiang Yan. “Yan’er, it’s time for us to return. The time we have been in the lower realm this time around is relatively long. If we do not return now, it’ll become a bit troublesome.”“Mn.” Jiang Yan nodded. She then looked to Qin Yu. “Qin Yu, I’m going back to the Divine Realm now. You better try harder. Do not make my big sister wait too long.” After biting her lip a couple times, Jiang Yan said softly. “Big Brother Qin Yu, if Big Brother Luo Yu were to have any troubles, I wish that you’ll lend him a hand. Please.”Qin Yu slightly nodded. “You can be reassured.”Granny Yin Hua and Jiang Yan bid their farewells with Qin Yu with a smile. Immediately after, the two of them flew toward the horizon. A golden gate suddenly appeared in the sky. Just like that, Granny Yin Hua and Jiang Yan stepped into the golden gate and disappeared. The golden gate had also vanished.Blazing Sun Star. On this large brown mountain, there was only Qin Yu raising his head toward the sky.Afterwards, with a movement of his body, Qin Yu also disappeared.

Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 49 – Two MessagesTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinAlthough the Blazing Sun Star’s temperature was extremely high, during the very late night time, there was a period of time in which its temperature would fall to an extremely low temperature. And at this current moment, the temperature on the Blazing Sun Star was at that extremely cold phase.Although a bone chilling wind was blowing, Hou Fei and Hei Yu were standing outside the courtyard manor’s door. They were quietly waiting for Qin Yu. Of course, this bit of cold wind did not affect them in the slightest.“Mixed Hair Bird, big brother said that Jiang Yan is a Deity, I didn’t hear wrong, did I?” Even at this moment, Hou Fei was unable to believe it.Such an adorable girl was actually a frightening expert?Hei Yu had a calm expression. He said. “We will know about everything once big brother comes back.” The sentence Qin Yu said before he left had caused the two to become puzzled.After a short while, Qin Yu’s figure appeared inside the courtyard manor.“Big brother.” Hou Fei and Hei Yu spoke simultaneously.Qin Yu glanced at his two brothers. He then slightly nodded and said. “I realize what you two want to know, okay… I’ll tell you everything.”Qin Yu had never thought of hiding anything from his two brothers.After creating a barrier surrounding their room, Qin Yu and his brothers chatted for half the night. Qin Yu had spoken of almost everything that he came to know. For example, the relationship between Li’er, Uncle Lan, Granny Yin Hua and Jiang Yan as well as some of the matters regarding the Divine Realm.Qin Yu had also told them about some of the information he personally managed to obtain from the Bewitching God Temple.Hou Fei and Hei Yu were shocked by all the information that Qin Yu had given them. At the same time, they became more familiar with the Divine Realm.On the morning of the second day, Qin Yu and his brothers bid their farewell with the Flame Emperor, Jun Luoyu, Qingqing as well as the others. After they left the Blazing Sun Star, they proceeded toward the location of Qin Yu’s clan, the Virtue Residence Star of the Burning Sun Galaxy.Virtue Residence Star.On a place close to the Virtue Residence Star’s main city, on top of a continuous and unending mountain range, several palaces were located on the summits of the mountain range in picturesque disorder. There were even some elegant pavilions and wooden houses too.This was the location where the Qin clansmen lived.The current speed that the three brothers traveled at was much faster. In less than a day’s time, the three brothers arrived on this Virtue Residence Star’s mountain range. As the three of them entered the mountain range, they walked in the forest and were able to casually see some animals, beautiful plants, clear spring water, flowers, green grass, as well as some forest beasts…After passing through the forest, flying past the pond, passing the waterfall and following the internal mountain path, Qin Yu and his brothers arrived at the bottom of a ravine. Originally, one could only reach this ravine by going through the top of the mountain. However, the Qin clan had created a tunnel within the mountain.After passing through this tunnel, one would set foot on a winding little path. There were numerous grasses on this little path.Due to the fact that there was a cold pond in the middle of the ravine, the ravine was covered with white fog. Once one stepped onto the winding little path and walked a distance of several miles, one would see a stele…. ‘Qin Palace.’ At this moment, one would be able to see that luxurious palace created entirely by Elemental Spiritual Essence Stone.This Qin Palace was actually the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. However, because of the fact that the reputation of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion was pretty high, and that the Qin clan merely wanted to live peacefully, they decided to give it such a name.On the route toward the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, Qin Yu saw many Qin descendants. Those Qin descendents were all extremely respectful to Qin Yu. Almost every single one of them addressed Qin Yu as the ‘Utmost Supreme Third Elder.’“Third Highness.” This voice had caused Qin Yu to look toward the source of the voice.Third Highness, this was the address majority of the people of the Qin clan called him as when he was younger.Qin Yu raised his head to look. He carefully looked at the middle aged man before his eyes. “You, you are…”“Third Highness might have forgotten about this subordinate. Back then, Third Highness was sent by the Prince to the Misty Mountain Villa. I am one of the people sent to the Misty Mountain Villa with Third Majesty. Furthermore, I ended up staying in the Misty Mountain Villa for several years. The bitter effort Third Highness had displayed had also caused this subordinate to feel ashamed. Thus, this subordinate had also started to put in effort toward training and ultimately became a personal guard to the Prince. Afterwards, I was fortunate to be granted a cultivation martial technique from the Prince.” Said that middle aged man respectfully.[TL: Prince as in King. You know… old languages call kings as prince…]Qin Yu suddenly realized.Back then, when he was sent to the Misty Mountain Villa, there had indeed been a large group of people following him to the Misty Mountain Villa. However, back when he was younger, the majority of his time was spent on training… thus, he did not have many interactions with those soldiers. The only person that he knew was the leader of the guards as well as some of the entrance guards. As for the rest of the people, Qin Yu was not very familiar with them.And at this moment, a scene appeared in Qin Yu’s mind. That was the scene where he was together with those guards. When he was younger, he did not have the company of his Royal Father but instead had the company of some guards.“Of those people from back then, how many of them are still alive? What about the vice captain of the guards, the Uncle Wang who would frequently joke around with me? Also, what about those two big guys who guarded the entrance? What were their names again…?” Qin Yu said and said and then suddenly stopped. His gaze had turned somewhat sad.Qin Yu understood that if there was one of two people among that group of people who were still alive, then it would’ve already been pretty good.“Among that group of old brothers, only I am still alive. The rest of them have all already died… after all, to be able to successfully cultivate was truly hard. Among all of them, only two managed to reach the Xiantian stage. I am one of them. However, the other brother, back on the Hidden Dragon Continent, he lost his life when he fought against one of the Great Wilderness’ beast.”Qin Yu slowly sighed deeply.“What is your name?” Qin Yu asked.That middle aged man respectfully said. “This subordinate was only a normal guard amongst the Misty Mountain Villa’s second team of guards back then, ‘Qiu Wei.’”“Yu’er, so you were here.” At this time, Qin De walked over.The number of people leisurely strolling around outside the Qingyu Immortal Mansion or sparring with one another was truly numerous. Qin De came out to stroll around to relieve his boredom and happened to run into Qin Yu and his brothers.Hou Fei and Hei Yu paid their respects immediately. “Hou Fei(Hei Yu) pays his respects to Uncle Qin.”Qin De smiled and nodded.“Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, the two of you can go and relax in the residence first. Xiao Hei, you should go and accompany your wife and Hei Tong.” Said Qin Yu. Hei Yu and Hou Fei then bid their farewells and left.The former Qingyu Immortal Mansion, the present Qin Palace, was a very large Immortal Mansion. And now, quite a few people lived inside it. Hou Fei, Hei Yu, Hei Tong, Guo Fan and a lot of other people had already left the Jiang Lan’s Realm and started living together with the Qin clan.“Xiao Qiu, you can go rest.” Qin De said to the middle aged man beside him.“Yes, Prince “ Qiu Wei said respectfully. He also saluted to Qin Yu as he left. Qiu Wei had served Qin De as his personal guard back then. Even now, that group of guards still addressed Qin De as “Prince.”Qin De looked to the back view of the departing Qiu Wei. He sighed and said. “Back then, I had several hundred thousand troops underneath me. However, those that managed to survive till now only number in the two digits. Time, it is the greatest killer.”Qin Yu knew what his Royal Father meant by that.The number of people that could cultivate was truly small. Furthermore, there was another reason… in a mortal world like the Hidden Dragon Continent, one cannot publicise that they would impart cultivation martial techniques to others. Thus, one could only select some people with good aptitude and innate talents to teach.“Yu’er, are you going back out again this time?” Qin De asked.Qin Yu smiled and shook his head. “Not anymore, if nothing happens, I would likely stay here all the way until the date my Divine Tribulation arrives.”“The date of your Divine Tribulation? Yu’er, I have already asked about the matters regarding the Divine Realm. According to the history of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, generally, for level nine Immortal Emperors, the faster ones would have to wait several tens of thousands of years before their Divine Tribulation arrives. The slower ones would even have to wait several millions of years. The amount of time we father and son will have together should still be considerably long.” Qin De couldn’t help but expose a trace of joyous delight.Qin Yu shook his head helplessly and said. “Royal Father, have you forgotten about the Cyan Emperor? After the Cyan Emperor reached level nine Immortal Emperor, he waited for merely several hundred years before his Divine Tribulation arrived.”“Level nine Immortal Emperor? However, there are rumors saying that the Cyan Emperor had been deliberately hiding his strength. Although he had announced to the others that he was a level eight Immortal Emperor, the majority of the people who had managed to see the Cyan Emperor’s Divine Tribulation all believed that… the Cyan Emperor had already reached the level nine Immortal Emperor. Who said that he merely waited several hundred years?” Qin De asked instead.Qin Yu shook his head and smiled.It would appear that what most people knew was still very limited. It was all merely some hearsays.“Royal Father, the Cyan Emperor had actually been stuck at level eight Immortal Emperor the entire time. And during the first time when I went to the Crescent Moon Bay, it was only then that he managed to successfully reach the level nine Immortal Emperor level. And after several hundred years, he underwent his Divine Tribulation on the Ridge Peak Star.” Qin Yu spoke out the truth.After being stuck at level eight Immortal Emperor for tens of millions of years, the Cyan Emperor possessed a terrifying strength.“Oh, what you meant is… you’ll also be undergoing your Divine Tribulation shortly?” Said Qin De with a frown.Qin De truly didn’t wish to be separated from Qin Yu that early. After all, the father and son had only just reunited with each other. And once Qin Yu ascends to the Divine Realm… who knows how many years it would take for Qin De to reach the Divine Realm.“That’s right, I reckon that after several hundred years, my Divine Tribulation will come.” Said Qin Yu slowly.‘Qin Yu’s words had foundation behind them.Others say that the time the Divine Tribulation arrived was not certain. However, Qin Yu knew, that there were regular patterns behind the arrival of the Divine Tribulation. The higher the level of one’s soul, the sooner the Divine Tribulation would arrive.For example, the Cyan Emperor whose soul had reached the Golden Soul Pellet level, his Divine Tribulation had arrived in merely several hundred years.As for the level nine Demon Emperor Super Divine Beast ‘Phoenix’ Emperor Ni, level nine Immortal Emperor Hidden Emperor Lin Yin and other people had reached level nine Emperor level for a very long time. However, none of their Divine Tribulations had arrived yet. Their speed was clearly much slower.As for Qin Yu’s Golden Soul Pellet, there was a eighty or ninety percent chance that it was at an even higher level than the Cyan Emperor’s. It would be weird if his Divine Tribulation didn’t come faster than the Cyan Emperor’s. Staying in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm for several tens of thousands of years? That would be nothing but a delusion.“Several hundred years. Several hundred years is also good.” Qin De could only say it like this.Upon seeing his Royal Father’s expression, Qin Yu determined that in the final times before he leaves the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, he will definitely properly be together with his Royal Father as well as his brothers.The peaceful days continued. No hatred. No slaughter. With plenty of family love, friendships…. Qin Yu and his brothers spent roughly eighty years like that.On this date, someone arrived at the Qin Palace.The Demon Realm’s Beast Clan’s person with the highest battle comprehension, Great Ape Emperor Sun Yuan. The purpose of Sun Yuan’s arrival was precisely for Hou Fei.Inside the main hall of the Qin Palace.“You’re already a level nine Demon Emperor? How is that possible? How long has it been? Although your cultivation speed was very fast before, to reach level nine Demon Emperor in merely four thousand years, that still shouldn’t be possible. Especially for level seven, eight and nine Demon Emperor. The further down the harder it is to train.” Sun Yuan looked to Hou Fei. He found it a bit unbelievable.Hou Fei felt a bit ashamed.Four thousand years? Had it not been for the Jiang Lan’s Realm’s tenfold times origin, how would Hou Fei have been able to become a level nine Demon Emperor?“I’ve heard that Qin Yu’s current strength is very powerful. Thus, I already expected that your strength would be pretty good. I had even expected for you to be a level seven Demon Emperor. Never had I expected that I had underestimated you so greatly. This time around, I was even thinking of passing on the Great Ape Emperor’s position to you.” Said Sun Yuan helplessly.There were only a few people in the main hall. Only Qin Yu, Hou Fei, Hei Yu, Qin De and Sun Yuan.At this moment, Qin Yu and Hei Yu started smiling.Passing on the Great Ape Emperor title to Hou Fei? Qin Yu and his brothers had already decided that once the Divine Tribulation comes…. the three brothers will undergo the Divine Tribulation together. It was likely that the amount of time the three brothers would remain in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm would be less than a million years.“Oh Great Ape Emperor, please spare me. Haven’t you been the Great Ape Emperor nicely the entire time?” Hou Fei said hurriedly.“But I have also reached level nine Demon Emperor.” Sun Yuan sighed. “After I reached level nine Demon Emperor, I intended to quietly train so that I can prepare for the arrival of the Divine Tribulation. However you…”Hou Fei curled his lips and said. “Great Ape Emperor, my big brother, the Mixed Hair Bird and I, have already decided that we will undergo the Divine Tribulation together. With my big brother’s current cultivation level, I reckon his Divine Tribulation will arrive very soon. Thus, the amount of time I will remain in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm is very short. However, you’re different. You’ve only reached level nine Demon Emperor. I reckon you’ll still be able to remain in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm for several hundred thousand years. Even several millions of years is possible.”“You, you said… you three are taking on the Divine Tribulation together?” Sun Yuan was completely stunned. He came back in a bit and said with a very red and intensive expression. “You cannot, you absolutely cannot!!!”“Three people taking on the Divine Tribulation together, are you all trying to court death? You should know that the more people there are taking on the Divine Tribulation together, the more the Divine Tribulation would increase its power by multiple folds. If all three of you were to undergo the Divine Tribulation together, then the power each of you would be taking on would be more than twice that of what you would be taking on if you were to undergo the Divine Tribulation on your own! As for exactly how much stronger, even I do not know. That is because in all of history, there have only been two people at most undergoing Divine Tribulation together. And out of all the people who tried undergoing their Tribulations together, only a single group managed to successfully pass the Divine Tribulation. As for three people taking on the Divine Tribulation at the same time, there has never been a precedent of success.”Sun Yuan naturally believed that Qin Yu and his brothers were indulging in wild fantasies.“It is only somewhat possible if all three of you possess strength that matches the Demon Realm’s Three Great Emperors or the Dark Star Realm’s Three Great Sovereigns.” Sun Yuan added.Qin Yu and his brothers looked to each other and smiled.Hei Yu, in regards to his strength, was even a tier above the Peng Demon Emperor. As for Hou Fei, he was definitely no weaker than the Great Ape Emperor. And there was Qin Yu… the current Qin Yu, once he held the Divine Spear ‘Waning Snow’ in his hand, he was even confident in taking on the Demon Realm’s Three Great Emperor and the Dark Star Realm’s Three Great Sovereigns, all six of them, by himself.Even if he did not have the Divine Spear Waning Snow, Qin Yu could also rely on his body’s might as well as his soul’s might to match the Gold Punishment Lord, the Dragon Emperor and them.“Mn?”Qin Yu suddenly discovered a weird thing. He was unable to refrain himself from showing an odd expression.His two Transmission Spiritual Pearls had actually respectively received a message at the same time. One of his Transmission Spiritual Pearl was the one that he used in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. The other Transmission Spiritual Pearl was the one he used in the Dark Star Realm under the alias of ‘Liu Xing.’“I’ll be right back.” Said Qin Yu to the few people in the main hall. He grew confused. What were the two messages that he had received?
Chapter 477 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 50 – Wu LongTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinQin Yu walked into a secluded garden on the east side of the Qin Palace. With a flip of his hand, he first took out the Transmission Spiritual Pearl of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. After sweeping through the contents with his Divine Awareness, Qin Yu was slightly stunned.“Flame Emperor? Wu Long?” Qin Yu was stunned for quite a while.This message was sent over by the Flame Emperor. The contents of the message was: “Brother Qin Yu, the reason why I contacted you, is to relay a message from the current Asura Devil Emperor. Asura Devil Emperor, Wu Long, will come and pay you a visit today. Oh, that’s right, I forgot to let you know that… the Asura Devil Emperor Wu Long is the newly-appointed Asura Devil Emperor. His strength is also that of a level nine Devil Emperor. Furthermore, standing behind him are the two level nine Devil Emperors Mo Luo and Mo Kong. It could be said that the current Wu Long is the absolute ruler of the Devil Realm! I hope that brother Qin Yu will regard this meeting as important!”Qin Yu only managed to remember after being stunned for a while.“Wu Long, isn’t Wu Long that Devil Realm expert from the time when I broke the seal on the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple who had said that he would be able to reach level nine Devil Emperor within a hundred years? I remember that he was only a level six Demon Emperor back then.” Qin Yu had instantly recalled about Wu Long.Back then, when Wu Long saw Qin Yu’s spear strike, he managed to attain a moment of enlightenment.Qin Yu didn’t know that Wu Long was the disciple of one of the two great hidden experts of the Devil Realm, Mo Kong. Wu Long was someone who practiced the Asura Devil Path. And now, he managed to reached level nine Devil Emperor in a single breath and easily defeated the previous Asura Devil Emperor, Bai Ruxue.Mo Kong and Mo Luo are brothers. Now that Mo Kong’s disciple became one of the Devil Realm’s hegemon, the two of them naturally stood behind him and supported him. The three level nine Devil Emperors of the Devil Realm were actually in the same faction. One could easily imagine the status that Wu Long currently held. The Black Devil Emperor and the Blood Devil Emperor simply did not even possess the qualifications to compete with Wu Long. To say that Wu Long had become the absolute overlord of the Devil Realm was in no way an understatement.“Wu Long, that little guy who was only a level six Devil Emperor, who would’ve expected that the delirious utterances that he said back then actually turned true. It has only been eighty years and he has already reached level nine Devil Emperor. He has indeed become a level nine Devil Emperor in less than a hundred years.” Qin Yu recalled the bold, visionary words that Wu Long had said back then and smiled.Why would this Wu Long come and visit him?Qin Yu smiled. He flipped his hand and took out the other Transmission Spiritual Pearl. He believed that Wu Long did not have hostility in his visit. Furthermore, in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, it would already have been fortunate for others that Qin Yu did not go and create troubles for them. Others coming to create troubles for him… an egg hitting a rock, one cannot blame the rock if the egg breaks.With a sweep of his Divine Awareness, Qin Yu’s expression grew solemn.“It has finally begun?” The corners of Qin Yu’s mouth was slightly raised.This message was sent over by the Gold Punishment Lord: “Consecrated Liu Xing, my Divine Tribulation will arrive in another year’s time. I wish for you to quickly return to the Gold Punishment Star. For one, i want you to be present during my Divine Tribulation. Secondly, a very important matter is also waiting for you. The matter is in regards to the position of the Gold Punishment Lord. I reckon that the new Gold Punishment Lord shall be selected between you and Vice Sect Master Liu Lan. Thus, you must be sure to return to the Gold Punishment Star before the date of my Divine Tribulation. If you were to come back too late and Liu Lan were to become the Gold Punishment Lord, then you can blame no one but yourself for that.”With a flip of his hand, Qin Yu put away the Transmission Spiritual Pearls.“Gold Punishment Lord?” Qin Yu gazed toward the north. It was as if he was seeing through the empty sky and saw the Gold Punishment Star. “I have still not seen the Three Great Inherited Treasures of the Dark Star Realm. I have heard that of the Three Great Inherited Treasures, the one that the Gold Punishment Lord possesses is the strongest.”A smile appeared on the corners of Qin Yu’s mouth. “I might as well take on that position of the Gold Punishment Lord. Furthermore, after possessing the Inherited Treasure, I can also openly display it during the Divine Tribulation since I would have to return that thing in the end anyways.”Qin Yu was certain.He was certain that even if the peak experts of the Divine Realm noticed that he had used the Inherited Treasure during his Divine Tribulation, they would still not care. That was because every successive Gold Punishment Lords have used the Inherited Treasure. Furthermore, in the end, he would have to return it to the Dark Star Realm anyways.Qin Yu had not thought about bringing that treasure into the Divine Realm. If he did, then that would mean that he had placed himself as the enemy of all the seniors of the Dark Star Realm.The flowing spring water. Passing through the clear spring water where the pebbles underneath the water was clearly visible, beside the small spring water creek, inside the bamboo forest was an elegant bamboo pavilion house.This was Qin Yu’s residence.Qin Yu did not like being in the Qin Palace. Instead, he liked the tranquil natural environment. Ordinarily, Qin Yu would be by himself. Only occasionally would he go and accompany his brothers or his juniors.“Third Highness, His Majesty Asura Devil Emperor of the Devil Realm has arrived.” Qiu Wei walked over with a youth.At this moment, Qin Yu had his pants rolled up and was sitting on a stone beside the spring water creek. His legs were placed in the water. He was enjoying the sensation of the water moving about his legs.“Wu Long? That young lad who had said that he would be able to reach level nine Devil Emperor level within a hundred years and the current Asura Devil Emperor?” Qin Yu was still sitting. He had his back facing the two.“Senior Qin Yu, this junior is precisely Wu Long!” Wu Long was extremely respectful.Even though he had become a level nine Devil Emperor and the absolute hegemon of the Devil Realm, Wu Long was still extremely respectful toward Qin Yu. For one, from the spear strike that Qin Yu displayed back then, Wu Lan knew very clearly that even the current him was much inferior than Qin Yu. And the second reason was… he believed that Qin Yu had graced him with his teachings.Seeing how courteous Wu Long was, Qin Yu nodded in his heart.“Qiu Wei, you can go and rest.” Said Qin Yu.“Yes, Third Highness.” Said Qiu Wei respectfully. He then withdrew from this location. However, Wu Long grew confused…. That Heavenly Immortal from earlier, why did he address Senior Qin Yu as ‘Third Highness?’Wu Long didn’t know much about Qin Yu’s matters back in the Mortal Realm.“What matters bring you here?” Said Qin Yu indifferently. He still had not turned his head around.Wu Long said respectfully. “This junior has come in order to express his thanks to Senior Qin Yu. Had Senior not displayed that spear strike, then there would not be the current Wu Long. Although Senior is not this junior’s master, Senior has graced upon this Junior like a master.”“Wu Long, your words are too serious. Back then when I broke the seal, not only you, the other seventy one Emperors also saw it. However, they did not manage to comprehend it. You, on the other hand, did. This is your own gift of talent. Your own ability. It does not have much relationship with me.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.However, Wu Long heart was not swayed in the slightest.The things that he had determined were impossible to be changed by mere words.“Senior Qin Yu, this junior has come today because he wishes for senior to have a look at this junior’s spear technique! Might Senior be willing to have a look?” Wu Long was still using the respectful tone when he spoke those words.Qin Yu turned his head around.“Spear technique?” A smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face. “Good, you can use it and let me see it. You do not have to use energy with it.”“Yes.”Wu Long immediately stood up strong like a javelin. He extended his left hand and a crimson colored long spear appeared within his palm. Wu Long said. “Senior Qin Yu, back then, this junior managed to attain some comprehension as he saw Senior’s spear technique. After this junior returned, he spent a total of seventy seven years and finally managed to create this set of spear techniques. This junior is unable to be like senior and condense all of the greater Daos into one strike and was only able to distribute his comprehension within nine different forms to create a set of ‘Bloodfire Nine Forms.’”As he said that, Wu Long’s left hand was jolted. His crimson spear had left his hand!This set of spear technique was extremely fierce. There was layer upon layer of spear silhouettes. In an instant, the entire sky was filled with spear silhouettes. It was like a sea of blood filling the sky. That nine forms spear technique, each strike was stronger fiercer than the previous. Furthermore, they press forward without exception.“Break!”A low shout.Immediately, the endless sea of blood disappeared. Replacing them was a condensed blood arrow. As if it was ripping apart the space, that blood arrow violently flew. That blood arrow was that crimson colored spear.The nine forms spear technique’s demonstration had ended.Wu Long held the end of the shaft of the spear. The spearhead was thrust forward.A clear space ripple was actually shot out from the spearhead. It only dissipated after flying for several hundred meters. Like a sculpture, Wu Long remained there without moving for a long time. Only then did he slowly put back the spear.Qin Yu’s eyes were a bit shiny.“Not bad. Your spear technique possesses a killing intent a tier higher than mine. A courageously advancing killing intent. Furthermore, it possesses that ‘either you die or I die’ sort of life-risking strength.” Qin Yu nodded and smiled. “Your spear technique is already very exceptional. Without using your body’s energy, you’re already able to create space ripples. This spear technique… if you were to use it, then ordinary level nine Devil Emperors should be no match against you.”Qin Yu’s comprehension level was much higher than Wu Long’s. Thus, he was able to naturally create a very clear judgement.According to Qin Yu’s speculation, Wu Long’s current spear comprehension was only comparable to that of the Monkey and Ape Clan’s Heaven Startling Three Stick Strikes.“What Senior said is right.” Wu Lan was very convinced.Qin Yu continued to smile and said. “You’re of the Asura Devil Path right?”“Yes.” Wu Long nodded. He was a bit confused. Why did Senior Qin Yu ask about the ‘Asura Devil Path?’Qin Yu nodded and said. “Then it makes sense. The cultivation method of the Asura Devil Path has influenced you. Although it allows your spear technique to be filled with killing intent and amplifies its power by a lot, it also… causes your defense to decrease as it increases the attack power. Although your spear technique can be considered pretty decent, with your strength and comprehension, I believe… it is possible for you to double the power of this spear technique within a hundred years.”“Double the power?” Wu Long was overjoyed.Last time, Wu Long managed to attain a moment of enlightenment that allowed him to rapidly reach the level nine Devil Emperor. However, it had only allowed him to reach the level nine Devil Emperor level. If he wanted to progress even more… then like before, he would have to spend a very long period of time.However, Qin Yu was able to allow him to double the power of his spear technique within a hundred years. This caused him to become unable to resist his excitement.“Might Senior be willing to teach this junior?” Asked Wu Long respectfully.“I will demonstrate it to you once. As for whether you’ll manage to comprehend it, it’ll depend solely on you.” With a brush of his hand, a bamboo branch that still had bamboo leaves on it, flew into Qin Yu’s grasp. “Pay close attention.”Wu Long immediately raised his concentration to the peak. He was completely focused on Qin Yu.Qin Yu slightly smiled.Holding the bamboo branch, Qin Yu walked to a bamboo tree. He used this bamboo branch and softly hit the bamboo tree. With a mere hit, the bamboo branch cut halfway into the wrist-sized bamboo tree.“If you manage to comprehend it, then good. If not… then do not ask me about it.” After Qin Yu finished saying that, he removed his hand from the bamboo branch. The bamboo branch remained embedded in the bamboo tree.As for Qin Yu, he returned to his bamboo pavilion house.“What, what did Senior Qin Yu do earlier?” Wu Long stood to the side. It was as if he had entered into a chaotic state. “The branch was not damaged in the slightest. Even the bamboo leaves were not damaged in the slightest. However, this bamboo branch managed to cut into half of the bamboo tree.”Wu Long shook his head. “No, Senior Qin Yu did not use any energy. None at all. But how is it possible for a branch to cut through the bamboo tree without the use of energy? And even the leaves on the branch were not at all damaged?”Qin Yu, who was inside the pavilion house, glanced at Wu Long who was standing there, lost in thought. He then lightly smiled.The comprehension towards the ‘Dao,’ was not something that could be taught through words. It could only be demonstrated through some simple methods so that others could comprehend it. For Qin Yu to demonstrate it so that Wu Long could comprehend it was much easier than for Wu Long to blindly search for comprehension himself.However, even if this was the case, it was still not something that one could achieve comprehension on easily.“If he comprehends it, then the ‘Bloodfire Nine Forms’ would not have that weak spot anymore.” Qin Yu sighed lowly. He then disappeared from the room.Inside the Qin Palace’s main hall, Qin Yu was bidding farewell to a large group of people. He had told them that he had to go out for a bit to handle some affairs. And this time around, Qin Yu was leaving by himself. Even Hou Fei and Hei Yu could not follow him.Qin De and Qin Feng were thinking about asking when Qin Yu would be back. Qin Yu who was uncertain about the timing merely said that he’d return within three years.In the boundless Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Qin Yu executed his Greater Teleportation with astonishing distance. When traveling by himself, he was much faster than when traveling with Hou Fei and Hei Yu. In less than a day, Qin Yu had entered the Dark Star Realm.The Dark Star Realm that was extremely mysterious to the people of the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and the Demon Realm was not secretive at all to Qin Yu.The northeast region. The mysterious Dark Star Realm.On the Gold Punishment Star of the Three Great Sacred Planets. On the summit of the Sacred Mountain in the middle of the enormous city in the Gold Punishment Star. A large number of experts were gathered upon those eighteen mountain tops. Compared to the last time Qin Yu came here, there were many many more experts gathered here.The matter of the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation had caused numerous Gold Punishment Sect’s disciples scattered around the Dark Star Realm to rush back.As he walked into the Front Palace, Qin Yu saw an acquaintance… Great Elder Fu Lan.“Ah, Consecrated Liu Xing, you’ve finally come? Vice Sect Master Liu Lan and Great Squad Captain Wen Feng have been waiting for you.” Said Great Elder Fu Lan excitedly. “Consecrated Liu Xing, quickly prepare so that you can go to the Guard Elder together with Vice Sect Master Liu Lan and Great Squad Captain Wen Feng.”Qin Yu was puzzled.“Great Elder Fu Lan, why are they waiting for me? What matter might there be for us to go to the Guard Elder? Wasn’t His Majesty the Gold Punishment Lord about to undergo the Divine Tribulation?” Asked Qin Yu in succession.Great Elder Fu Lan said in astonishment. “Consecrated Liu Xing, you don’t even know about this? Although His Majesty’s Divine Tribulation is quite important, the matter regarding the next successor to the Gold Punishment Lord is even more important. Consecrated Liu Xing, you, Vice Sect Master Liu Lan as well as Great Squad Captain Wen Feng are all qualified to compete for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord. Before the competition, you all are required to go to the Guard Elder.”“Why are we going there?” Asked Qin Yu curiously.Great Elder Fu Lan said somewhat enviously. “I too want to know. Regardless, those who possess the qualifications to compete for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord are all required to go to the Guard Elder. I still do not have that qualification.”Qin Yu understood it now.“Go quickly, every single time, it had always been those who are qualified going to the Guard Elder together. Vice Sect Master Liu Lan and Great Squad Leader Wen Feng are waiting for you. If you were to not show up, then it’ll be considered as you voluntarily renouncing your right to compete for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord.” Said Great Elder Fu Lan with a smile.“Renounce? How is that possible?” Said Qin Yu while smiling.He immediately discovered Wen Feng and Vice Sect Master Liu Lan with his Divine Awareness. Immediately, he proceeded to walk over to where Wen Feng was.
Chapter 478 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 51 – New HopeTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinNumerous white glorious trees surrounded a courtyard manor. This courtyard manor was a residence on the main mountain peak that Wen Feng possessed. Because of the fact that it was located on the mountain peak, waves of mountain wind would burst through it, leaving behind a ground filled with white glorious trees’ leaves.Stepping on top of the white glorious trees’ leaves, Qin Yu, who wore a black gown, had arrived by the entrance of the courtyard manor.“Ziya!”Qin Yu only arrived at the entrance when the courtyard manor’s entrance opened by itself. A person came out from the opened door. The silver gowned grave and stern youth, Wen Feng. Seeing Qin Yu, Wen Feng slightly nodded. “Earlier, Great Elder Fu Lan had already sent me a transmission telling me about your return.”“Wen Feng, it seems that you’re very anxious?” Qin Yu asked with a smile.“Truly, you.” Wen Feng shook his head and smiled. The grave and stern Wen Feng, when he laughed, actually emitted a special kind of charm. “Liu Xing, you ought to know very well that with my strength, it’s impossible for me to compete with Liu Lan. I am anxious. However, I am not anxious of the position for the position of the next Gold Punishment Lord.”“Well then, come in first. The two of us, I don’t believe we should chat with one person standing on the outside of the doorstep and the other standing on the inside.” Said Wen Feng with a smile. Upon hearing that, Qin Yu also smiled. He then proceed to walk into the courtyard manor.In the middle of the courtyard was a cyan colored simple and unadorned stone round table. Around the round table were three stone benches.Qin Yu and Wen Feng each sat on a stone bench.“Liu Xing, tell me, did you manage to obtain any great harvests in the Bewitching God Temple?” Wen Feng immediately asked the moment they sat down. “Do you hold the certainty in defeating Liu Lan?”With a brush of his hand, Qin Yu brought forth a jug of wine and two jade cups to the table.“Don’t be anxious, let’s chat as we drink.” Calm and easygoing, Qin Yu started pouring the wine. It was as if he wasn’t anxious at all.At this moment, Wen Feng instead had a smile on his face. Seeing Qin Yu’s actions, he had grown happy. “Haha… I knew that you would definitely succeed. Mn, that Liu Lan, he was still acting all arrogant to me a while back. Let’s see how he’s going to act all arrogant again after failing to obtain the position of the Gold Punishment Lord!”Qin Yu was slightly startled.“How did you know I managed to succeed?” Qin Yu asked.A trace of slyness was in Wen Feng’s eyes. “I can guess just by seeing your actions. You’re not worried in the slightest and are even in the mood to drink wine. However… this wine is indeed pretty good.” As he said those words, Wen Feng finished a cup of wine. He even clicked his tongue a couple times.“That’s right, I’ve managed to succeed.” Said Qin Yu with a smile. “This time around, I am one hundred percent certain that I’ll be able to obtain the position of the Gold Punishment Lord.”“Come, let’s have a toast to the congratulate the future Gold Punishment Lord.” Joked Wen Feng.Qin Yu also raised his wine cup to toast.Although it was very important for the two of them to go to the Guard Elder, it was not something so urgent that not even a moment’s delay was allowed. Qin Yu and Wen Feng started drinking and chatting for half a day. As for the Vice Sect Master Liu Lan who had received news that Consecrated Liu Xing had returned, he was instead confused as to why Liu Xing and Wen Feng did not go and search for him to go to the Guard Elder together.“Humph, that Liu Xing actually didn’t come over to my place. Could it be that he wants me to go search for him instead?” Vice Sect Master Liu Lan was a bit enraged. “I refuse to believe that you would not want to know about that secret!”In every generation, only the experts who possessed the qualifications to succeed as the next Gold Punishment Lord was qualified to know about a secret.This secret was usually informed to them by that generation’s Guard Elder.Although Wen Feng and Liu Lan were qualified to become successors since long ago, because of the fact that the choosing of the previous Gold Punishment Lord was relatively weird – there had not been a fifteen star Emperor level expert emerging by the time the previous Gold Punishment Lord ascended and the position of the Gold Punishment Lord ended up becoming empty for a very long time.Afterwards, Xing Yuan, Wen Feng and Liu Lan appeared in succession. Xing Yuan was selected for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord because he was the most powerful among the three. As Wen Feng and Liu Lan ended up failing to become the Gold Punishment Lord, the Guard Elder ended up not gathering them.“Still not here?” Liu Lan was still in his residence. He had grown anxious.“Humph!”Finally, Liu Lan humped coldly. He stopped putting on airs and proceeded to rush toward Wen Feng’s residence. If he were to allow Qin Yu and Wen Feng to continue on like this, who knows how much longer he’ll have to wait.“Haha, so you’re actually worried about this!” Qin Yu started laughing out loud.The reason why Wen Feng was so anxious on going to the Guard Elder was because he wanted to know about a great secret regarding the Gold Punishment Sect.“What kind of words are those? In the entire Dark Star Realm, which expert doesn’t want to know about that secret? It is something that only each generation’s successor candidates are qualified to know. Last time, the fact that when Xing Yuan succeeded the Gold Punishment Lord position, the last Gold Punishment Lord had already ascended, the Guard Elder decided not to tell us about this secret at all.”Qin Yu also grew curious.“What exactly is this secret?” Qin Yu’s eyes started radiating with curiosity.“Consecrated Liu Xing, Great Squad Captain Wen Feng, the two of you are truly in good moods.” Following a large laughter, Vice Sect Master Liu Lan walked in with a crude expression. “Could it be that the two of you are not planning to go to the Guard Elder?”Qin Yu and Wen Feng glanced at each other. The two of them simultaneously displayed a smile.“He indeed became unable to wait anymore.” Qin Yu and Wen Feng sighed in their hearts.Wen Feng stood up and said with a smile. “Vice Sect Master Liu Lan, although it is important to go to the Guard Elder, it is fine as long as we go to him before His Majesty’s Divine Tribulation. There is no need for us to worry over a day or two. Consecrated Liu Xing, don’t you agree?”Seeing Wen Feng’s gaze, Qin Yu naturally came to understand Wen Feng’s intention. He also nodded and said in a proper tone. “Mn, there is no need to rush. It is fine for us to wait another half a month to a month.”Instantly, Liu Lan’s expression had turned slightly ugly.Although Qin Yu and Wen Feng were in no hurry, Liu Lan was extremely anxious.“These two guys.” Liu Lan frowned. He then displayed a smile and said. “Brother Wen Feng, Brother Liu Xing, I actually also have important matters to attend to. However, if I do not go to the Guard Elder, then I am unable to ease my mind. I hope that the two of you might help me out.”Qin Yu and Wen Feng both slightly nodded.“Brother Liu Xing, since Vice Sect Master Liu Lan has important matters, we also cannot inconvenience him. Let’s go over to the Guard Elder now.” Said Wen Feng with a deadly serious expression.“That’s reasonable. Let’s go right away.” Qin Yu also had a deadly serious expression.Only then did Vice Sect Master Liu Lan heave a sigh of relief in his heart. “In that case, I must thank the two of you.” Qin Yu, Liu Lan and Wen Feng left the courtyard and started to proceed towards the mountain top that the Inheritance Palace was located on.The three of them flew beside each other. Even with gale brushing against their faces, the three of them continued to laugh and talk as though nothing had happened.“Vice Sect Master Liu Lan, do you know of this secret?” Qin Yu spoke and asked.Vice Sect Master Liu Lan shook his head and said. “I am not certain about it. All I know is that this secret is related to the Inherited Treasure and is a great secret that concerns the entire root of the Gold Punishment Sect.”Wen Feng did not say anything.After merely an exchange of several sentences, the three of them had arrived outside the Inherited Palace.The Inherited Palace was like a prehistoric giant creature. That ancient stone construction possessed hundreds of millions of years of unknown history. The entire Inherited Palace was emitting a sort of of simple and unadorned exotic oppressive sensation.Wen Feng and Vice Sect Master Liu Lan both felt a burst of oppressiveness from the Inherited Palace. Only Qin Yu did not change much.“This ought to be the aura of the Inherited Treasure.” Thought Qin Yu.This Inherited Palace that had existed for hundreds of millions of years, the entire building contained within it the energy of the Inherited Treasure. That was the reason for the oppressive aura.“The three of you may come inside.” From within the Inherited Palace sounded the hoarse voice of the Guard Elder.Qin Yu, Wen Feng and Liu Lan proceeded to walk forward together. They walked into the Inherited Palace. None of the three said anything. Upon entering the Inherited Palace, they saw that there was a dark and thin old man sitting cross-legged on a praying mat beside the offering counter. It was the Guard Elder.Before the Guard Elder were three more praying mats.“Sit!” The Guard Elder opened his muddy eyes and looked at the three.Although his gaze was muddy, the three of them didn’t dare to be disrespectful to the Guard Elder. The status of the Guard Elders were so high that even the Three Great Sovereigns had to treat them with respect.No, it wasn’t that the Guard Elders possessed very powerful strength. Instead, it was because they possessed a very high status. That was because the Guard Elder was the person who knew the most about the Inherited Treasure and all the other secrets. There are rumors saying that these Guard Elders were even able to communicate with the Seniors in the Divine Realm.Qin Yu, Liu Lan and Wen Feng sat down cross-legged on the praying mats.The Guard Elder looked at the three people before him and displayed a gratified smile. “The current Majesty the Gold Punishment Lord is about to undergo the Divine Tribulation. Fortunately, we have three successor candidates and there would not be the joke of having an Empty Gold Punishment Lord position again.”Wen Feng, Liu Lan and Qin Yu were silent. They were merely listening to what the Guard Elder was saying.“His Majesty Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan is about to undergo the Divine Tribulation, according to customs, all three of you are qualified to succeed the position of the Gold Punishment Lord. Of course, the final decision will be determined by your own strength! However, before then, I will tell the three of you some of the secrets regarding the Inherited Treasure of our Gold Punishment Sect, the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.”Qin Yu, Liu Lan and Wen Feng’s eyes all shined.“Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl?” Only now did Qin Yu come to know the name of this Inherited Treasure.“The Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl as well as the other two Great Spiritual Pearls were all suddenly formed several tens of billions of years ago. They had led to our Dark Star Realm to stop fighting among ourselves and proceed towards the peaceful times.” Said the Guard Elder slowly.Qin Yu, Wen Feng and Liu Lan all understood that the Guard Elder was about to talk about the secret of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.“In a short moment, I will tell you all about something. This is something that only a few people in the Dark Star Realm know about. After you three learn this secret, you are to by all means avoid telling others about it.” The Guard Elder’s muddy eyes instantly turned clear as he stared at the three.Qin Yu, Wen Feng and Liu Lan all nodded.“Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, Black Flame Spiritual Pearl and the White Profound Spiritual Pearl, these Three Great Spiritual Pearls were actually bestowed to us residents of the Dark Star Realm by a single person.” The Guard Elder’s tone of speech suddenly changed. It had turned into one that was extremely respectful.Qin Yu was stunned. Wen Feng and Liu Lan’s expressions also underwent a huge change.“A single person, is that person a senior of the Dark Star Realm?” Qin Yu started guessing in his heart. Merely, he was still silent and waiting for the Guard Elder to continue on his speech.The Guard Elder continued on respectfully. “That Great Lord possessed omnipotent power and was able to destroy the sky and extinguish the earth. He had said that as our Dark Star Realm Clan was the original residents of this cosmic space, we should possess Clan Guarding Treasures. Thus, he bestowed upon us three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures to our clan. These treasures would allow our clan to continue to exist forever. These treasures are the Three Great Spiritual Pearls.”“Grandmist Spiritual Treasure?” Qin Yu was unable to refrain from crying out in surprise.Qin Yu had never expected for the Three Great Spiritual Pearls to actually be Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Furthermore, they were gifted to the Dark Star Realm by a single person.“Consecrated Liu Xing, you’ve heard about Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?” Asked the Guard Elder in confusion.Qin Yu shook his head and said. “No, it was precisely because I’ve never heard of the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures before that I cried out in shock. I am confused as to what exactly these Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are, for it to actually possess such remarkable ability.”Wen Feng and Liu Lan also nodded. Wen Feng said. “Guard Elder, do you know what the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are?”The Guard Elder shook his head and said. “I am not certain. What I said earlier was the words that Great Lord said back then. This is also what each of the successive Guard Elder pass on to the next. Let’s not talk about this matter for now. Actually, regarding this secret, as for whether you all know about it or not, there is not much usefulness even if you do.”Wen Feng and Liu Lan both nodded.This secret only told them about the origination of the Three Great Spiritual Treasures of the Dark Star Realm. So what if they knew about it? And what if they didn’t?Qin Yu, on the other hand, started guessing in his heart. “Who was that person? He said that the Dark Star Realm Clan is the original residents of this cosmic space and thus should have Clan Guarding Treasures. What does he mean by that? Is that person a Godking? Or could he be a Exalted Celestial?”“What I am about to tell you all now is the most important matter. It is in regards to the usefulness of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.” Said the Guard Elder with a upright tone.Qin Yu immediately stopped his thoughts. Wen Feng and Liu Lan also stared at the Guard Elder.“Of the Three Great Spiritual Pearls, the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl is the strongest. However, even if one were an eighteen star Emperor level expert and merged with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, they would still not be able to fully display the efficacy of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. However, even though this is the case, the efficacy of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl is already at an astonishing level of frighteningness.” The Guard Elder had a very serious expression on his face.“Once one merges with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, the first thing to be changed will be the Gold Force within the body. The Gold Force will, under the assistance of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, increase by tenfold or more. As for how much the Gold Force would increase, it is dependent on the degree that one can merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl!” The first thing that the Guard Elder had told them had already caused Wen Feng and Liu Lan’s eyes to grow red with envy.Instantly increase one’s power by tenfold, how outrageous!“And this is not the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl’s main efficacy. The main efficacy of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl is that it would fuse together with one’s physical body. One’s physical body’s strength would increase by several tenfolds. One’s body’s toughness and durability would also increase greatly! The toughness and durability of your bodies are already extremely powerful. However, if you were to fuse with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, then you can say that… even if a High Quality Divine Artifact were to be before you all, it would also be nothing more than mud. Even the Divine Tribulation… no matter how hard it crashes onto your bodies, it would be unable to damage you all in the slightest!”The Guard Elder had grew a bit emotional. “The Gold Punishment Lord who possesses the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, his defense will practically be unequalled, extremely unequalled! He would be able to sweep across the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm by himself!”Wen Feng and Liu Lan’s breathing had become somewhat rapid. No wonder the Gold Punishment Lord was unequalled. No wonder there are no wars in the Dark Star Realm. It was because the Three Great Sovereigns were too powerful!Qin Yu lightly smiled in his heart.“Unequalled? Although it could be considered as unequalled in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, but would he be able to take on a spear strike of mine?” Thought Qin Yu in his heart.Qin Yu knew that even the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are separated into different grades. Ordinary Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are unable to match up against his High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact. Furthermore, Divine Spear ‘Waning Snow’ was not merely a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, it was even the proudest work of the Craftsman God!The Craftsman God had also forged quite a number of Acquired Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. However, he was most proud of this Divine Spear Waning Snow. One could easily imagine the powerfulness that is the Divine Spear Waning Snow.Suddenly, Qin Yu recalled the words that Guard Elder said. His expression changed!“Ah, the Guard Elder said earlier that, he said that…” Qin Yu was so excited that his finger started shuddering. “That Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl’s main efficacy is… increasing the physical body’s strength by several tenfolds and also increasing its toughness and durability greatly?”Qin Yu’s face grew somewhat red. It had grown red from excitement. “Furthermore, even his body’s Gold Force would increase by tenfold or more?”“In that case, then the door to the Artifacts Palace of the Bewitching God Temple, the one that contains numerous treasures within it and also possesses the core treasure that controls the Bewitching God Temple. If I were to bind that treasure, then I would’ve obtained the Bewitching God Temple. However, last time around I was unable to open it at all because I only managed to reach one third of the required strength.”Qin Yu’s eyes were shining. “However, however, if I manage to merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, then… I would definitely be able to open the Artifacts Palace! If I were to open the Artifacts Palace, then wouldn’t that mean that I would’ve attained the entire Bewitching God Palace?”“Strength increasing by several tenfolds! How outrageous is that, it most definitely means that I would be able to open the Artifacts Palace and obtain the Bewitching God Temple!”In an instant, Qin Yu grew so excited that his eyes had turned red![TL: Eyes turning red is the same as turning green with envy or wanting something very much.]
Chapter 479 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 52 – Divine Tribulation’s SensationTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinUpon seeing Qin Yu, Wen Feng and Liu Lan’s shocked and excited expressions, as well as their blazing passionate gazes, the Guard Elder started smiling satisfiedly.He loved seeing the peak experts of the Gold Punishment Sect act like that in front of him.During the period of time that he had held the position of the Guard Elder, he had already told about this secret three times. Every single time he saw those experts of extremely high status hearing about this secret, losing their self control, he would always feel a sense of satisfaction.“Truly, truly powerful.” Liu Lan was excited from the bottom of his heart.He had long since thought the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl to be extremely powerful. However, he had never anticipated for it to be that powerful. No wonder no one dared to become enemies with the Gold Punishment Lord. No wonder not a single Gold Punishment Lord had failed the Divine Tribulation.“I must definitely obtain it, definitely obtain it!” Liu Lan clenched his fist. He was so excited that his fists were slightly shivering. Never had he longed for something so much like he did now.Wen Feng also longed for the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.However, upon seeing Qin Yu and Liu Lan beside him, he understood very well that he was no match for either Qin Yu or Liu Lan.“Liu Xing’s expression has also changed. It would appear that he also longs for the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl greatly.” Wen Feng sighed in his heart.Regardless of whether it was Wen Feng, Liu Lan or that Guard Elder, none of them knew that… Qin Yu was not excited because of how exceptional the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl was. The reason for his excitement was…. the Bewitching God Temple!As long as he assimilates the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, Qin Yu would possess sufficient power to open the entrance of the Artifacts Palace. This also meant that he would be able to obtain the entire Bewitching God Temple!“The Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl is mine.” Qin Yu’s eyes suddenly burst forth a sharp ray.This was the first time since Qin Yu came to the Dark Star Realm that he desired for something so greatly. He glanced at Liu Lan beside him. Seeing Liu Lan’s ice-cold gaze, Qin Yu merely indifferently smiled in his heart.If he wanted to obtain the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, would anyone be capable of preventing that?“I presume the three of you have all come to realize the preciousness of the Inherited Treasure ‘Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.’ And now, all three of you are qualified to obtain the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl and become the next Gold Punishment Lord. If you wish to obtain the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, then you should prepare yourselves. After His Majesty finishes his Divine Tribulation, the three of you shall have a competition among yourselves. The winner shall become the new Gold Punishment Lord.” Said the Guard Elder with a smile.Vice Sect Master Liu Lan was the first to stand up. He smiled confidently and said. “I am definitely going to be the next Gold Punishment Lord. Consecrated Liu Xing and Great Squadron Captain Wen Feng’s strength are much inferior than mine.”“It seemed that you’re very confident?” Wen Feng frowned and said sarcastically.“Could it be that you also wish to compete with me?” Vice Sect Master Liu Lan instead asked with a cold expression. “You’d best not forget that if you were to accidentally lose your life in the competition, you cannot blame me for that.”Threatening. Undisguised threats.Wen Feng smiled indifferently. “Compete? I do not possess any greed for the Gold Punishment Lord’s position. So why would there be a need for me to compete with you? However, seeing how arrogant you are, I merely feel pity for you. Could it be that you believe that you’re truly capable of becoming the next Gold Punishment Lord?”Liu Lan slightly raised his chin in confidence. With a cold tone, he said. “Other than me, who else would be qualified to become the next Gold Punishment Lord? Could it be that the two of you, mere fifteen star Emperors, wish to compete against me?”“You believed yourself to be infallible.”A cold voice sounded. At the same time, a violent aura came crushing down on Liu Lan’s body. Liu Lan felt that his breathing had become very hard. The pressure was so great that even his chest was starting to feel painful.Liu Lan looked to the direction from which the aura came from. It was Qin Yu who was looking at him coldly.“Liu Lan, could it be that you thought that one’s strength would definitely be fifteen star Emperor level if he was granted a fifteen star title plate?” Said Qin Yu coldly.“You’ve been hiding your strength?” Vice Sect Master Liu Lan opened his eyes widely.Qin Yu laughed coldly. He then said to Wen Feng. “Brother Wen Feng, let’s go.” Wen Feng was also happy to see Vice Sect Master Liu Lan receiving a blow. Immediately, he happily followed Qin Yu and left together with him.Vice Sect Master Liu Lan looked at the backs of Qin Yu and Wen Feng as they left. His eyes were emitting a malicious light. He humped in his heart. “Hiding his strength? No matter how much he hides his strength, how powerful could he be? His aura is powerful, but that does not necessarily mean that his strength is also powerful. You two want to seize the position of the Gold Punishment Lord from me? In your dreams!”Afterwards, Vice Sect Master Liu Lan also departed from the Inherited Palace.Only the Guard Elder who sat cross-legged remained in the Inherited Palace. Seeing the three of them leaving in succession, the Guard Elder had a smile on his face. “Oh, not bad, it would appear that the battle this time around might be even more intense. That Liu Xing, he possesses unfathomable depths.”Qin Yu, Wen Feng and Liu Lan, ever since they met the Guard Elder and learned the secret, they had started to quietly remain in their own residences. Only occasionally would they chat with some friends. They were all waiting for that certain day… the day several months from now, the day of the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan’s Divine Tribulation.On the Gold Punishment Star, more and more experts arrived.As the time passed, the number of Emperor level experts that had arrived on the Gold Punishment Star had reached a frightening number of three thousand!These Emperor level experts came from all three of the great sects. The majority of these experts had stopped their training on the Dark Stars and came here in order to see the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation.Although the Three Great Sovereigns would not possess any dangers as they undergo the Divine Tribulation, the chance of success of other ordinary people of the Dark Star Realm was a bit lower. These Emperor level experts naturally wanted to see others’ Divine Tribulations so that they could accumulate some experience to allow them to prepare for their future Divine Tribulation.Qin Yu lived in the same palace as Wen Feng.However, the two of them were usually training. Only occasionally would the two of them be together. In these days, there had also been a large number of Emperor level experts from the Gold Punishment Sect that had come to pay a visit to the two of them.Qin Yu and Wen Feng sat on either side of a long table. Placed on top of this long table were more than a dozen fine dishes. Regarding the dishes which were distinctive to the Dark Star Realm, Qin Yu was very fond of them.To cultivators, eating and drinking were only pleasures to relax themselves in the bitter path of cultivation.“Brother Wen Feng, I had never imagined that the Sacred Mountain would actually be bustling with noise and excitement like this.” Said Qin Yu while smiling after he drank a cup of wine.Wen Feng nodded, smiled and said. “In the past, there were at the very most several tens of Emperor level experts on the Sacred Mountain. However, there are actually more than a thousand Emperor level experts on the Sacred Mountain now. Furthermore, in the entire city, there are over three thousand Emperor level experts.”The Emperor level experts on the Sacred Mountain were almost all from the Gold Punishment Sect. As for the Emperor level experts from the Black Flame Sect and the White Profound Sect, they mostly lived in the city. Only a couple that possessed a high status were able to come to the Sacred Mountain.Right when Qin Yu and Wen Feng were talking to an excited point, a guard walked in.“Lord Wen Feng, Lord Liu Xing, there are nine Emperor level experts outside wanting to pay Your Lordships a visit.” Said that guard respectfully.Qin Yu and Wen Feng looked at each other. They both smiled bitterly.“Wen Feng, this should be the second group of people coming to visit us today, right?” Qin Yu smiled and said.“In these past several tens of days, almost every day there would be a group or two coming to pay us a visit.” Wen Feng also smiled helplessly.Qin Yu and Wen Feng, one was the Captain of the Enforcers and the other was the sole Consecrated. Their status were equal to that of the Vice Sect Master. Furthermore, they are also two of the three candidates qualified to become the successor of the Gold Punishment Lord. It was also natural for there to be a large amount of people coming to pay them a visit.“Let them in.” Said Wen Feng.“Yes.” That guard immediately withdrew himself.Qin Yu and Wen Feng both knew that it was hard for those people to come over to pay them a visit. If they were to refuse them, then it’d be too unreasonable.As wave upon wave of visitation continued to come, Qin Yu had finally reached the end of his patience. He directly declared that he would be training in seclusion all the way till the date of the Divine Tribulation before he would come back out.Actually, at this moment, it was only about a month away from the day of the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation.However, the closer to the date it becomes, the more people there were that came to pay their visit to Qin Yu and Wen Feng. A day after Qin Yu entered ‘seclusion training,’ Wen Feng was also forced to enter ‘seclusion training.’ The two of them could only use the method of entering seclusion training to politely refuse the visitors.Inside the room, the sun was shining through.Qin Yu was sitting cross-legged on top of his bed without moving. His eyes were closed.And in an instant, Qin Yu disappeared.At the same moment, on a grass meadow of the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm, Qin Yu had suddenly appeared. He was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. Qin Yu planned to train for thirty days. And in the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm, that was about three thousand days worth of time for him to train.In Qin Yu’s mind, he was able to sense that his Golden Soul Pellet was faintly radiating a seven colored radiance. As for Qin Yu’s awareness, he was using it to unceasingly comprehend the spatial comprehensions left behind by Zuo Qiumei.Break down, analyze, summarize, fusion, linking…Qin Yu’s awareness was unceasingly doing this process to each and every comprehension. In such a process, Qin Yu had forgotten about time, forgotten about everything. Time passed by. Qin Yu was excited for every trace of comprehension that he managed to comprehend.That sort of feeling was very fantastic.Following his research, the secrets of the mysterious cosmic space became less and less. Qin Yu learned more and more about the nature of the cosmos. As this sort of research continued, Qin Yu even started to become aware… that if he were to continue on like this, then there would be a day that he’ll manage to finish researching and comprehending the entire cosmic space and then completely controlling it.Qin Yu believed that at that time, he would’ve be able to control the spatial laws.And right when he was training like this…All of a sudden, a fantastic sensation suddenly entered into Qin Yu’s soul awareness. Qin Yu’s training stopped completely. And at this moment, Qin Yu came to a complete realization.“Divine Tribulation? My Divine Tribulation is truly early.” Qin Yu opened his eyes. A smile appeared on his face.Qin Yu was already prepared for his own Divine Tribulation. He had anticipated that his Divine Tribulation would arrive within several hundred years. And earlier, when he was training, he managed to clearly sense that… his Divine Tribulation would arrive after a hundred and eight years.”“It’s a lot sooner than I expected.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart.After a hundred and eight years, Qin Yu would undergo the Divine Tribulation. Not long after passing the Divine Tribulation, Qin Yu would ascend to the Divine Realm. Qin Yu knew very well that once one passes the Divine Tribulation, they would usually ascend to the Divine Realm within a year’s time. The time that he has was very short.“A hundred and eight years, it is sufficient for me to do a lot of things.” Qin Yu talked out loud. “Soon, the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan would undergo the Divine Tribulation. Afterwards, when I have obtained the position of the next Gold Punishment Lord and assimilated with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, I shall go to the Bewitching God Temple and open the Artifacts Palace…”A succession of plans had instantly appeared in Qin Yu’s mind.Divine Realm. In Qin Yu’s heart, it was not merely a higher level world. What was more important was that… the Divine Realm was his true battlefield, the ultimate battlefield of his years of struggle.In the Divine Realm, he must defeat all of his love rivals.“Uncle Lan, Granny Yin Hua, their astonishing strength. Evidently, the clan that Li’er belongs to is a very exceptional clan in the Divine Realm. In order to beat numerous other experts, in order to eliminate the obstruction from numerous other powers, I can only accomplish that by becoming even more powerful and possessing even more skills.”Qin Yu’s pupils slightly shrank.The number one artifacts craftsman of the Divine Realm… “Craftsman God’ Chehou Yuan’s Artifacts Forging Mastery, Qin Yu was determined to obtain it. Qin Yu understood very well that the status of the number one artifacts craftsman would be in a world of supreme experts!“Bewitching God Temple, I must definitely obtain it. And before that, I must obtain the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart.Immediately after, Qin Yu closed his eyes again.“I must seize the moment and continue on training. There is still a period of time before the date of the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan’s Divine Tribulation.” Qin Yu’s awareness once again completely immersed itself into the spatial comprehension left behind by Zuo Qiumei.Break down, analyze…The time was passing without Qin Yu feeling it. In the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm, the time here was a hundredfold that of outside. This had allowed Qin Yu to train and comprehend even better.At a certain moment…“Mn?” Qin Yu felt a burst of awareness movement. In an instant, he woke up completely.Qin Yu, who sat on the meadows opened his eyes, a trace of a smile was on his face. “So three thousand days have passed.” After that, Qin Yu disappeared from the Jiang Lan’s Realm’s second layer space.At Qin Yu’s level, if he wanted to wake up at a certain time, then even if his awareness was completely immersed in comprehension, he would still be able to instantly wake up at the appointed time.“Ziya!” [TL: this was supposed to be a creaking sound… of a door]Qin Yu who had finished his seclusion training finally walked out from his room. Qin Yu raised his head and looked to the sky. He was unable to refrain himself from deeply breathing in a mouthful of fresh cold air.“There are truly a lot of people here.”Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness instantly discovered that on the entire Sacred Mountain, there were more than ten thousand people flying about in the sky. It was extremely lively. Tomorrow was the day of the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation. It was also normal for it to be this lively today.The youth who sat on the stone bench on the courtyard for who knows how long, upon seeing Qin Yu walk out from his room, stood up in a pleasant surprise. “Lord Liu Xing, you’ve finally come out from your seclusion training? His Majesty has ordered me to tell you to go to him after you finish your seclusion training.”“Tomorrow is the date of His Majesty’s Divine Tribulation, right? Do you know where it is?” Qin Yu asked casually.That youth immediately said respectfully. “Lord Liu Xing, tomorrow is precisely the date of His Majesty’s Divine Tribulation. The location where His Majesty will undergo the Divine Tribulation has already been announced. It is an uninhabited beautiful planet located not far away from the Gold Punishment Star called the Hundred Flowers Star. And now, there are already thousands upon thousands of experts on the Hundred Flowers Star.”“Hundred Flowers Star, is it?” Qin Yu smiled and nodded. “Well then, you can leave now. I will immediately rush over to His Majesty’s location.”“Yes, Lord Liu Xing.” That youth withdrew himself respectfully.
Chapter 480 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 53 – Xing Yuan’s Divine TribulationTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinLike the wind, Qin Yu had flown to that boundless ravine. With the mountain wind whistling, Qin Yu’s gown was fluttering and his long hair also drifted along with the wind.Qin Yu had arrived at another mountain top, one of the eighteen mountain tops. The palace on top of this mountain was the Gold Punishment Lord’s residence. Because of the fact that the Gold Punishment Lord would be undergoing his Divine Tribulation tomorrow, there were still a lot of Emperor level experts gathered around here.However, almost all of these people were located outside the palace. They too didn’t dare to go in and disturb Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan. Qin Yu, on the other hand, did not hesitate at all. He directly walked over to the palace entrance.“Who is this person, how come I haven’t seen him before?”“I don’t know, however, he seems to be an expert. I cannot see through him!”Some of the experts were chatting with their friends in confusion. In the Dark Star Realm, there were not many people who had actually met Qin Yu. Especially with the fact that Qin Yu decided to enter ‘seclusion training’ a month ago. There were only a small amount of people who had seen him and knew who he was.“Lord Liu Xing.” Said a bald headed robust man respectfully.Qin Yu lightly nodded. He continued to walk forward. This bald headed robust man beside him had once paid a visit to Qin Yu and Wen Feng. Thus, he knew who they were.“So it’s actually Lord Liu Xing, one of the three successor candidates for the next Gold Punishment Lord.” Immediately, someone came to realize who Qin Yu was. The numerous experts in the surrounding immediately started to salute to Qin Yu.“Lord Liu Xing.”“Lord Liu Xing!”Each and every one of them, whether men or women, youth or elderly, were all very respectful.This was how it was in the Dark Star Realm. If your strength was powerful, then you’d be respected and revered. And Qin Yu, as the sole Consecrated of the Gold Punishment Sect, possessed a status equal to that of the Vice Sect Master and was second only to the Gold Punishment Lord. Furthermore, he was one of the three great successor candidates. As he was so powerful, who among all those present did not respect and revere him from the bottom of their hearts?A moment later, Qin Yu had walked past the yellow stone pavement road in front of the palace entrance.The guards standing outside the palace gate immediately made their salutations respectfully. “Lord Liu Xing, His Majesty has given us the orders to tell Lord Liu Xing to directly go to the back hall of the main hall after Your Lordship’s arrival. His Majesty would be waiting for you there.”“Mn.” Qin Yu slightly nodded. He then proceeded to enter into the palace.Qin Yu did not bother to ask about where that ‘back hall’ was located. That was because Qin Yu had already discovered the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan’s location with his Divine Awareness. After taking a step, Qin Yu had arrived on the entrance of the main hall with his second step. With another step, Qin Yu had reached the back hall.The people in the surrounding who saw Qin Yu moving about thought that he seemed to be in a state of absolute calmness as if everything was natural.On a chair in the back hall, the Gold Punishment Lord had his eyes slightly closed as he leaned on the chair. Beside his hand was a table. On top of the table was a pot of tea and two tea cups. And on the other side of this table was another chair.“Sit.” Upon seeing Qin Yu walking in, the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan opened his eyes and pointed to the other chair.Qin Yu smiled and sat down on the chair. He said while smiling. “Your Majesty Xing Yuan seems to not worry about the Divine Tribulation at all. Even at this moment, Your Majesty is still so content and relaxed. “Xing Yuan picked up the cup of tea and drank a bit of tea. His gaze was cast towards Qin Yu. With his eyes fixed on Qin Yu, he said. “Liu Xing, you should know the benefit of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl by now. Do you believe that I would still need to worry about that Divine Tribulation? The reason why I sought for you today is because I wanted to ask you about something.”Qin Yu was unable to refrain his confusion.Xing Yuan was already someone who was about to ascend to the Divine Realm, why would he come and find him?“Your Majesty Xing Yuan, please speak.” Said Qin Yu straightforwardly.Xing Yuan nodded and said. “Actually, in the Dark Star Realm, I possess no disciples. I don’t even have any relatives either. You can say that I am someone that has no one to care and worry for. Had it not been for the fact that I was a bit worried about the Divine Tribulation, I might not even have come to seize this position of the Gold Punishment Lord.”Qin Yu nodded.Qin Yu understood in his heart that this Xing Yuan had reached eighteen star Emperor level but there seemed to be close to no one who knew of his existence. Yet, he still suddenly appeared and seized the position of the Gold Punishment Lord. Only then did his name spread far and wide, shocking the entire Dark Star Realm. A person like him would not care much about power at all.“Liu Xing, actually, during the first time I met you, I was already in shock from how high your soul’s level was. It was so high that even I was unable to see through it. My soul’s level had already reached eighteen star Emperor level. Thus, I grew confused…. for someone with a soul that’s close to that of a Deity’s, would his body strength truly be that of a fifteen star Emperor?”Xing Yuan smiled and said. “Furthermore, that time, you wanted to enter into the Bewitching God Temple so badly. And now, after seeing you again, I can sense that you have changed. Although I am uncertain as to what has changed, I can feel that you’ve become even more powerful. Liu Xing, tell me the truth, are you absolutely confident in the competition for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord after my Divine Tribulation?”“I am.” Qin Yu nodded and said.Qin Yu did not bother to hide it in the slightest.“That’s more like it.” Xing Yuan laughed happily. “Are you able to tell me how strong you actually are?”“If you didn’t have the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, then you ought to not be a match for me.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.Xing Yuan’s eyes shined. He burst into a loud laughter. “Sure enough, it’s as I imagined. I have long since determined that your fifteen star Emperor level was merely you concealing your strength. It would appear that my guess was correct…. Haha, unfortunately, I now possess the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl and you are no match against me.”Qin Yu merely smiled indifferently.He did not bother to defend himself. That was because there was no need for him to defend.[TL: Defend as in defending the mistaken view that Xing Yuan had about him, that he can defeat him as he possessed the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.]“I’ve finally managed to obtain the answer to the only question that I have in my heart. Comfortable, truly comfortable!” Xing Yuan laughed out loud.“You’ve sought my appearance just for this?” Qin Yu was slightly surprised.“What did you think I asked you to come for?” Said Xing Yuan as he smiled. “After becoming the Gold Punishment Lord, I had been idling away my time. With my strength, everything is within my control. Only you… you’re the only person that I feel as if I cannot control, cannot understand. Thus, I wanted to ascertain your strength before my ascension so that my mind would be at ease.”Qin Yu shook his head and smiled.Xing Yuan was truly someone who was easily content. However, being content would bring about a long time of happiness. [TL: I have no idea what IET was trying to say here…]On the second day, a large number of experts rushed towards the Hundred Flowers Star. As for whether a generation’s Gold Punishment Lord would publicize their Divine Tribulation, it was something left to be determined by that generation’s Gold Punishment Lord. However, an overwhelming majority of the past Gold Punishment Lords had publicized their Divine Tribulation.The Gold Punishment Lord undergoing the Divine Tribulation was something that cannot be failed at all.Hundred Flowers Star was an extremely beautiful planet. There were numerous different kinds of beautiful flowers and plants. To rest among the flower field and watch the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation, when would you experience another day like this?Vast crowds of people densely packed the Hundred Flowers Star.At this moment, several hundred thousands of Dark Star Realm experts have gathered on the Hundred Flowers Star. Several hundred thousands of people, in the Dark Star Realm, that was an extremely large number of people. After all, the population of the entire Dark Star Realm was extremely sparse to a pitiful level.Qin Yu, Wen Feng, Liu Lan, Bao Yu and the other experts were all in the frontmost area that was the closest to the Gold Punishment Lord.As for the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan, he was in a ring shaped vacant land in the middle. As for the Black Flame Lord, the White Profound Lord and others, they were also seated beside Qin Yu and them. All the people present were chatting and laughing. It seemed that none of them possessed any sense of nervousness.“Liu Xing, have you seen a Divine Tribulation before?” Asked Wen Feng to Qin Yu.Qin Yu had already seen the Cyan Emperor’s Divine Tribulation. However, because Qin Yu wanted to hide his identity, he said with a smile. “I haven’t.”Wen Feng smiled and said. “I’ve already seen it numerous times now. Brother Liu Xing, let me offer you an explanation of the Divine Tribulation. The Divine Tribulation is separated into Three Tribulations. The First Great Divine Tribulation is a dark blue colored Ancient Formation’s Thunder Tribulation!”“The Second Great Divine Tribulation is a Divine Flame Tribulation. The Divine Flame is extremely powerful. If one is burned by it for an extended period of time, even a seventeen or eighteen star Emperor level expert would sustain injuries. As for the Third Tribulation, it is the strongest one. The Third Great Divine Tribulation is a mixture type Tribulation. It is an attack that contains gray mist and gray lightning… Many of our Dark Star Realm’s experts, while undergoing their Divine Tribulations, lost their lives to precisely this Third Great Divine Tribulation.”When Wen Feng explained to Qin Yu, Qin Yu carefully listened.Although he had seen the Cyan Emperor’s Divine Tribulation before, that was merely seeing the outward appearance of the Divine Tribulation. As for a deeper level understanding of the Divine Tribulation, Qin Yu didn’t know much about it. Evidently, the experts of the Dark Star Realm were much more familiar with the Divine Tribulation, compared to the people of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.“Brother Wen Feng, aren’t the majority of the Dark Star Realm’s experts at the seventeen star Emperor level when they undergo the Divine Tribulation. So why is it that they cannot pass the Divine Tribulation?” Qin Yu was puzzled.Seventeen star Emperor level experts logically possessed the strength of the ninth stage of the ‘Nine Steps Dark Gold Body.’ With such a strength, taking on the Divine Tribulation should result in a one hundred percent chance of passing.Wen Feng shook his head and said. “Although seventeen star Emperor level is very powerful and their probability in passing the Divine Tribulation is also very high, there are still many people who died to the Divine Tribulation. As for the reason, you merely need to wait till His Majesty the Gold Punishment Lord finishes his Divine Tribulation and then go and carefully ask him about it.”“You’re trying to deliberately keep me in suspense?” Said Qin Yu with a smile.“The Divine Tribulation has started!” Wen Feng’s expression suddenly turned serious. Qin Yu immediately stopped talking.Right at this moment, the entire Hundred Flowers Star had suddenly grown quiet. None of the several hundred thousand people actually made any clamor. From the noisiness that was before, everyone had turned silent. The pressure from such occurrence had also caused Qin Yu to grow quiet.“Huff!” a Violent wind suddenly started blowing. Countless flowers were lifted up by the violent wind.The dark sky, it was as if a god had covered the sky with a layer of ink. In an instant, the entire sky was rolling with black clouds. The entire sky had turned pitch-black. The power of the Divine Tribulation had started to fill the air.Within those rolling black clouds, a large red vortex appeared. This red vortex had a circumference surpassing a thousand miles. The red vortex was revolving unceasingly. At the same time, rays of dark blue colored electric snakes started to scatter and run about in all directions.“Chi chi~~~~”At this moment, Qin Yu discovered that the space surrounding the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan had become completely distorted. Xing Yuan’s figure had also become a bit fuzzy.A millstone shaped ‘Ancient Formation Array’ started to appear from the red vortex. This millstone shaped Ancient Formation Array was formed by nine dark blue colored lightnings. These nine dark blue colored lightnings were flowing about the Ancient Formation Array unceasingly.The First Great Divine Tribulation… Ancient Formation Lightning Tribulation!“Against the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan, the Divine Tribulation does not possess any challenge at all.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart.Precisely as Qin Yu had anticipated, when that millstone sized Ancient Formation Array Lightning Tribulation fell, before it even managed to hit the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan, Xing Yuan had already casually shot out a golden light.That was the Gold Force with its might increased by over a dozen times. It directly shattered the millstone.The Second Great Divine Tribulation… Divine Flame Tribulation!That enormous red vortex was separated into an inner and an outer part. The inner and the outer vortex started revolving in opposite directions. The rubbing between the two vortexes gave birth to traces of black flame. These black flames fused together and formed a black flame dragon.“Too weak, too weak.” Qin Yu sighed in his heart.Sure enough, the moment when that black flame dragon formed by Divine Flames wrapped around Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan, his body started radiating a golden brilliance. Like the sun, he was extremely dazzling.The Divine Flame dissipated. The Second Great Divine Tribulation had disappeared.“Brother Wen Feng, the two Great Divine Tribulations have been easily defeated, could it be that the Third Great Divine Tribulation has something exceptional regarding it?” Qin Yu asked Wen Feng beside him via voice transmission.Wen Feng shook his head and said. “Liu Xing, the strongest of the Three Great Divine Tribulation is the last one. Even though His Majesty Gold Punishment Lord will probably succeed in passing the Third Great Divine Tribulation, it will not be as easy as the previous two.”“The Third Great Divine Tribulation is very powerful? Qin Yu was somewhat puzzled.“It’s truly powerful.” Wen Feng firmly stared at the red vortex in the sky.Qin Yu however did not believe it to be that powerful. He still clearly remembered the scene he saw when he saw the Cyan Emperor’s Divine Tribulation. When the final Third Great Divine Tribulation fell, the Cyan Emperor’s body merely emitted a jade-green colored ripple and easily defeated the Third Great Divine Tribulation.In Qin Yu’s mind, he had believed that the Third Great Divine Tribulation would be the same as the previous two Great Divine Tribulations — unable to withstand a single blow.The black clouds that covered the entire sky started to roll. That enormous red vortex continued to revolve with the same frequency that it had before. Traces of gray mist started to permeate from the red vortex. Over a thousand miles of gray fog that permeated from the red vortex was gathered together. They condensed together and formed a large lump of gray mist with a circumference of several hundred meters.That enormous gray fog of several hundred meters circumference started to descend. It had instantly covered all of the Gold Punishment Lord’s surrounding area. The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan himself was naturally also wrapped up by the enormous gray fog.Inside the enormous gray fog were bolts of gray lightning running about in all directions.Those gray lightning bolts struck the Gold Punishment Lord’s body. Yet they were unable to break through his defense at all. Qin Yu was able to easily and clearly see this scene with his Divine Awareness.“It would appear that even if it were the Divine Lightning, it would still not damage the Gold Punishment Lord in the slightest.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart. “The Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl has fused with the body, increasing the body’s toughness and durability greatly. It also increases The Gold Force by an extremely large amount.”However, right at this moment, Qin Yu’s expression changed.Inside the center of that gray mist filled space where the Gold Punishment Emperor stood, the noise of his gasp for breath started to sound. That was because the noise from his gasp for breath was very loud. It was like a bellows blowing air.“Huff, huff, huff…” The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan was breathing heavily with a low voice. His eyes were red, it was as if he was about to go berserk. His hands were clenched firmly. The veins on his forehead had also bulged.“What’s going on?” Qin Yu was shocked.
Chapter 481 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 54 – The Position of the SovereignTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin“Ahhh!!!” Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan suddenly raised his head and roared frantically. His entire body started to burst forth an astonishing golden radiance. The golden light shot through the gray mist. Like a wave, the surging Gold Force shot out and swept through all the gray mist and gray lightning in the surroundings.The enormous red vortex started to slowly dissipate. The rolling black clouds also faded away. The sky had once again turned bright. Light breeze had also started to blow again.The space surrounding the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan had turned normal again.As the wind blew at Qin Yu’s long hair, it caused the hair to drift to Qin Yu’s face. Qin Yu had a smile on his face. “He succeeded.”“Congratulations Brother Xing Yuan.” The Black Punishment Lord Wu Shan was the first to speak.“Brother Xing Yuan, congratulations on successfully passing the Divine Tribulation.” White Profound Lord Ju Mi also spoke.Qin Yu, Wen Feng, Bao Yu, Liu Lan… and all the other numerous experts surrounding the Gold Punishment Lord, started to give their congratulations. Although Xing Yuan’s success in passing through the Divine Tribulation was expected, it was still quite an achievement, since he would now ascend to the Divine Realm.After passing the Divine Tribulation, one would usually ascend to the Divine Realm within a year’s time.“Haha, I was in a somewhat sorry state.” Xing Yuan still had bright and clear sweat on his forehead. “This Third Great Heavenly Tribulation, the Mixture Tribulation, is truly difficult to deal with. However, I still managed to block it in the end.”The Black Flame Lord Wu Shan laughed loudly and said. “Oh Xing Yuan, you’re pretty good already. You were able to block the invasion of the Heart’s Devil with merely your willpower. I reckon I would become berserk for a moment and vent my angers before I would be able to stop the Heart’s Devil.”“Heart’s Devil? Didn’t the Divine Tribulation have all kinds of illusions and affect one’s state of mind from the beginning?” Qin Yu said, confused.According to what Qin Yu knew.In the entire Divine Tribulation, from the beginning to the end, there were always illusions affecting the person undergoing the tribulation. So why would the Black Flame Lord mention the invasion of the Heart’s Devil?“Liu Xing, you don’t even know about this?” Xing Yuan started laughing loudly. The Black Flame Lord, the White Profound Lord, Wen Feng and many others also started laughing. Their laughter caused Qin Yu to feel a bit embarrassed.The Black Flame Lord Wu Shan laughed and said. “Liu Xing, this Third Great Divine Tribulation is a Mixed Tribulation. It contains within it the Divine Lightning as well as Heart’s Devil Mist.“Heart’s Devil Mist?” Qin Yu remembered the gray colored mist.The White Profound Lord Ju Mi nodded and said. “Liu Xing, what you said earlier is also correct. Right from the beginning, the Divine Tribulation has illusions to affect the person undergoing the tribulation. However, those are merely illusions that affect your state of mind. As for the ‘Heart’s Devil Mist’ of the Third Great Divine Tribulation, it is different. That gray colored mist appears to have no attack power but once it surrounds you, it starts to attack you with an unending amount of different Heart’s Devils.“Once the Heart’s Devil enters into your body, the situation becomes very troublesome.” Xing Yuan sighed and said. “That Divine Lightning was unable to harm me in the slightest. However, that Heart’s Devil is able to ignore my defense and only attack my soul! This Heart’s Devil is something that can only be defended and attacked by one’s soul’s power. However, in the process of defending or attacking it, it is also possible for you to be affected by the Heart’s Devil.”Xing Yuan laughed and said. “Thus, the higher level one’s soul is, the easier it is to resist this sort of Heart’s Devil.”Wen Feng also said. “His Majesty the Gold Punishment Lord was still fortunate and possessed the Inherited Treasure. The Divine Lightning was unable to harm him in the slightest so he was able to wholeheartedly annihilate and resist the Heart’s Devil. However, for other ordinary people, they would require to defend against the Heart’s Devil while defending against the Divine Lightning. This is the great power of the Third Great Heavenly Tribulation.”Only then did Qin Yu understood everything.“No wonder the Cyan Emperor managed to pass it to easily.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart. The Cyan Emperor’s soul had already been condensed to a Golden Soul Pellet a long time ago. His soul’s level was extremely high. For him, warding off the Heart’s Devil was extremely easy.The White Profound Lord Ju Mi lightly smiled and said. “Actually, passing the Third Great Divine Tribulation is not hard either. You merely need to resist the attack of the Heart’s Devil for a period of time. After the time has expired, the Heart Devil’s Mist will automatically dissipate. As for Brother Xing Yuan, he tried to annihilate the Heart’s Devil in vain. For him to be affected by the Heart’s Devil, he can blame no one but himself.”“Haha, since my body doesn’t fear the Divine Lightning, I most certainly would have to have a nice fight against this Heart’s Devil. If I were to only defend against it and not attack, wouldn’t that be too boring?” Said Xing Yuan as he laughed.Only then did Qin Yu realize.This Xing Yuan, the reason why he was affected by the Heart’s Devil was because he took the initiative to fight it.“In the future, when Xiao Hei, Fei Fei and I undergo our Divine Tribulation together, I’ll take the initiative to attack and annihilate these Heart’s Devils.” Qin Yu started to think about how to defend against the Divine Tribulation in the future.For three people to take on the Divine Tribulation together, the might of the Heart’s Devils would not merely be three times that of the original Heart’s Devils. Instead, it would be much greater. It might be eight times or nine times, or even more powerful than that.As the Divine Tribulation had ended, a large number of people started leaving.As for the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan, the Black Flame Lord Wu Shan, the White Profound Lord Ju Mi as well as some of the people with position second only to the Three Great Sovereigns, the Vice Sect Masters, the Consecrated, the Great Elders and them, had all left the Hundred Flowers Star together.This group of highest echelon experts arrived on the Gold Punishment Star together. Simultaneously, they proceed to fly toward the Sacred Mountain’s mountain top.Over a dozen people were flying and chatting beside each other.“Oh Liu Xing, my Divine Tribulation has already passed, in a period of time from now, the contest battle for the position of the new Gold Punishment Lord shall be held. You’d best not be careless and lose the seat of the Gold Punishment Lord in the end.” Said Xing Yuan with an open laughter.Right after Xing Yuan said those words, the expression of Vice Sect Master Liu Lan who was ten meters away from them had immediately turned gloomy.Qin Yu was about to say something but was suddenly interrupted.“Oh Xing Yuan, based on what you said, it seems that you’re certain that Liu Xing will be the next Gold Punishment Lord?” Said the Black Flame Lord Wu Shan with a loud laughter and clear voice.A handsome youngster with long red hair also nodded and said. “Based on what Your Majesty Xing Yuan said, could it be that Consecrated Liu Xing’s strength is even stronger than that of Vice Sect Master Liu Lan?” This red long haired youngster was the Vice Sect Master of the Black Flame Sect. He was a sixteen star Emperor level expert.Qin Yu had already discovered the sinister gaze that Liu Lan was looking at him with.“This Xing Yuan, he truly has a huge mouth.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart. However, Qin Yu didn’t care about it. That was because he already had the intention to attain the position of the next Gold Punishment Lord. Thus, it was also natural for him to be a bit more tyrannic now.Xing Yuan looked to Liu Lan beside him. “Liu Lan, let me warn you. Liu Xing’s strength is not inferior to yours… Haha, I will be ascending to the Divine Realm in five months time. Let’s set the date for the competition for the position of the new Gold Punishment Lord to be three months from now.”Before Xing Yuan ascends, he was still the Gold Punishment Lord.Only after Xing Yuan ascends would the new Gold Punishment Lord be able to officially succeed the position of the Gold Punishment Lord.“Three months. In three months, I will definitely win. The position of the Gold Punishment Lord is definitely mine.” Said Liu Lan coldly. Immediately after that, he turned into a ray of light and flew toward his own residence without regards of any other people present.“Liu Xing, don’t disappoint me.” Xing Yuan looked to Qin Yu while smiling all over. A flash of cunningness flashed through his squinted eyes.Qin Yu felt helpless in his heart.This Xing Yuan who was about to ascend to the Divine Realm had grown so bored that he decided to amuse himself with Qin Yu. He would not even allow Qin Yu to have some days in peace.“The winner of the competition for the next Gold Punishment Lord in three month’s time will definitely be me. There is no need to doubt this.” Qin Yu smiled and looked to everyone. Although he was smiling, his confidence was clearly felt by everyone present.“Liu Lan’s strength is very strong. However, it seemed that this Liu Xing’s strength is even stronger. Furthermore, he’s mysterious. The battle for the new Gold Punishment Lord has become interesting.” Said the White Profound Lord Ju Mi with a low voice.As for one of the three great successor candidates, Wen Feng, he had been completely ignored by everyone.Wen Feng himself did not have any complaints either. After all, his strength was too inferior.During the three months time, Qin Yu and Liu Lan were both in their respective residences undergoing seclusion training. From how it appeared to the people outside, the two great competitors for the next Gold Punishment Lord were undergoing their final bitter training.As for the final successor candidate, Wen Feng, he had announced his renouncement of the right to compete for the position of Gold Punishment Lord. Wen Feng did not wish to be humiliated by Liu Lan when they fight.Three months later.A spacious and empty plain several thousand miles to the east of the Gold Punishment Star City had become the location for Qin Yu and Liu Lan’s battle. Before the battle had even begun, a large number of people had already started to gather here.The Three Great Sovereigns, Xing Yuan, Ju Mi, Wu Shan, were all gathered here. All kinds of Emperor level experts as well as some other experts were also here.Compared to the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation, a battle for the seat of the Gold Punishment Lord attracted the interest of the people even more. Especially for this battle, the two sides both possessed extremely powerful strength… a battle of this sort was rarely seen in ten thousand years.“It’s been a long time since I’ve last seen a fight of super experts like this one. Furthermore, this is a fight with their lives depending on it.” Said the Black Flame Lord Wu Shan as he laughed.Usually, when those qualified to fight for the position of either one of the Three Great Sovereigns fought, they would give it their all. If one did not possess sufficient strength, they would have already conceded voluntarily at an earlier time. For example, Wen Feng!“In all these years of competition for the positions of the sovereigns, rarely have there ever been two seventeen star Emperor, or higher, level experts fighting over the position.” The White Profound Lord Ju Mi nodded and said. Xing Yuan was beside them. He smiled and said. “In this battle, that Liu Xing will definitely win.”“There’s truly a great number of people.” Wu Shan looked to the surroundings.Above the plain, gathered densely packed, was a large number of experts. There were even more people gathered here than compared to the time of the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation. And the people in the frontmost were still the Three Great Sovereigns.Before the Three Great Sovereigns was the spacious and empty battlefield. At this moment, there was still no one on the battlefield. The two sides in this battle had yet to appear. There was only wind blowing the grass on the ground.“Huff!”A figure suddenly appeared on the spacious and empty battlefield. It was Qin Yu wearing a gown. Blown by the wind, the gown was raised. Even Qin Yu’s long hair started drifting with the wind. He was standing there with his hands behind his back. It was like he had been standing there the entire time.Merely, his eyes were closed.Immediately, the noisy sound of people discussing disappeared. Replaced by an extreme silence. Only the rustling noise from the wind blowing on the grass remained. The rustling noise seemed to be be very loud.Qin Yu suddenly opened his eyes and slightly raised his head. He looked to the east. A figure was flying over rapidly like an eagle. That pair of cold and indifferent eyes were fixed on Qin Yu. It was Liu Lan!“Liu Lan has come!”The Three Great Sovereigns, Wu Shan, Xing Yuan and Ju Mi’s eyes shined at the same time. The densely packed people surrounding and watching all held their breaths.“Woosh!” In an instant, the proud and aloof Liu Lan stood to the south of Qin Yu. Qin Yu stood on the north side, Liu Lan on the south side, the two of them were looking at each other. The distance between them was about a hundred meters.“Liu Xing, it is better for you to admit your defeat. Otherwise, I might accidently kill you. That would be very bad.” Said Liu Lan coldly.“You sure say a lot of bullshit. If you want to fight, then fight. If you’re too much of a coward to fight, then just admit your defeat.” Said Qin Yu indifferently. As he opened and closed his eyes, an extremely sharp and cold radiance burst forth like the lightning bringing about an frightening pressure.The Three Great Sovereigns, Xing Yuan, Wu Shan and Ju Mi were all shocked.“Such a powerful soul power.” Thought the three in their hearts in shock.“A battle is determined by one’s body’s strength. Your soul is very powerful, but it doesn’t amount to a damn thing!” Sneered Liu Lan. Immediately after, the muscles in his entire body started to bulge. Rays of golden light started to flow through his entire body.Hearing what Liu Lan said, Qin Yu shook his head in his heart.He actually said that the soul being powerful was useless? While low level battles were determined by one’s energy and body, once one reaches a higher level of combat, the battles become determined by one’s comprehension of the spatial laws and even one’s comprehension of the temporal laws. And that was determined by one’s soul level.Liu Lan roared.“Woosh!” Almost instantly, Liu Lan’s figure arrived before Qin Yu. His sharp claws had instantly arrived at the top of Qin Yu’s head. With Liu Lan’s body that was comparable to a High Quality Divine Artifact, if his claw strike were to land, it’d be extremely frightening.The Three Great Sovereigns all frowned. Wen Feng, Bao Yu and the others also frowned.To attack the head right away, it was clear that Liu Lan wanted to kill Qin Yu.However, in the contests for the position of the Sovereigns, even death was a risk one would have to take. Thus, these people did not say anything about it. Merely, for Liu Lan to start off with this was somewhat unruly.Liu Lan started to smile. He had managed to grab onto Qin Yu’s head. However, his smile instantly froze. That was because he was unable to sense the slightest amount of resistance. It was as if he had grabbed onto ‘air.’It’s an afterimage!“It’s my turn to attack now.” A clear voice sounded through the entire plains. Everyone that stood there watching the fight had heard the voice clearly. Liu Lan turned around with a lightning like speed. He looked to the sky. Qin Yu was currently standing in the sky.Liu Lan turned into a sharp arrow and shot toward the Qin Yu in the sky.Contrary to Liu Lan’s action, Qin Yu slowly raised his right fist. He continued to stand there in the air without moving.“Die!” Liu Lan had already arrived before Qin Yu. His attack came at Qin Yu with the intent to kill. However, at this moment, Qin Yu also threw his fist out. Qin Yu’s fist was not fast. Furthermore, it was only shot toward Liu Lan’s chest.“Sigh, even at this moment Liu Xing is being compassionate and lenient. He should not attack the chest, he should attack the…” Sighed Xing Yuan in his heart. However, right when he sighed half way, his expression became frozen. Not only him, the Black Flame Lord Wu Shan, the White Profound Lord Ju Mi as well as some of the other super experts’ facial expressions had all frozen.That was because this group of super experts all clearly saw the scene before them. A scene that they could not believe was happening.Qin Yu’s fist was originally shot towards Liu Lan’s chest. However, Xing Yuan, Ju Mi and all of them saw that… Liu Lan’s body actually moved downward a small distance for no cause or reason at all.The first that was originally shot toward the chest had just happened to shoot toward Liu Lan’s head. Liu Lan who was not prepared for it at all only had an expression of being dumbstruck with shock in his eyes.“Kacha!”Qin Yu’s fist, like pulverizing a watermelon, brought about the sound of a skull shattering. Liu Lan’s head was shattered. Liu Lan’s soul had also started to slowly dissipate.Even before his death, Liu Lan still could not believe what had just happened. “Why did the space press my body downward? What is happening?” Before his soul dissipated, he had also received Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness Voice Transmission.“Didn’t you said that the soul being powerful was useless? This is a kind of usage one’s soul can have towards the space after it becomes powerful enough.” Said Qin Yu via Divine Awareness Voice Transmission.“So, you…”Only at this moment did Liu Lan suddenly see through the thick fog and discover the light. And also at this moment, his soul had completely dissipated.Seeing Liu Lan’s corpse flying downward to the ground.Qin Yu thought in his heart. “Using the principle behind the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike on the fist actually gave birth to a pretty strong power.” Qin Yu looked to his right fist that had smashed Liu Lan’s skull with a single fist. A smile appeared on his face.At this moment, a burst of earth-shattering cheering noise sounded.Those low level Gold Punishment Sect cultivators did not manage to see clearly that Liu Lan’s body had momentarily been pressed downward. However, all of these people knew that… the new Gold Punishment Lord had been decided. It was Lord Liu Xing!
Chapter 482 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 55 – Gold Punishment Spiritual PearlTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThe main mountain peak of the Gold Punishment Sect’s Sacred Mountain was extremely noisy. That was because an enormous banquet was being held here. This enormous banquet had invited a large number of experts. Almost all of the upper echelons of the Dark Star Realm were present.Flatters, compliments, congratulations…All sorts of voices were being heard unceasingly. And, as the main character of this banquet, Qin Yu felt a slight headache. That was because everyone who saw him was extremely cordial. Thus, he too could not be rude.“Had it not been for the fact that this banquet is being held especially for me, I would’ve already left.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart.However, as for his face, Qin Yu was smiling. At the same time, he was having a toast with a white clothed white haired old man.“Liu Xing, after I ascend to the Divine Realm, you shall become the next Gold Punishment Lord. As the Gold Punishment Lord, you have to at the very least get to know some of the great experts of our Dark Star Realm’s Three Great Sects. This person here is the Great Elder of the White Profound Sect, Fu Xian.” Explained Xing Yuan on the side.During this banquet, Qin Yu was the busiest person. As the person who was about to become the next Gold Punishment Lord, a lot of the people’s attitude toward Qin Yu had clearly changed. After all, the Gold Punishment Lord was the leader of the Three Great Sovereigns.The banquet only ended when the sky had turned pitch-black.Qin Yu then instantly teleported to the sky above the mountain and started to fly towards his residence. The cold air of the night was blowing on Qin Yu’s face causing him to feel a lot more clear-headed.“I’ve finally escaped.” Qin Yu smiled and sighed deeply.“Liu Xing, wait for me.” A familiar voice sounded. Qin Yu turned his head around to look. In a short moment, Wen Feng had arrived by Qin Yu. Wen Feng smiled to Qin Yu and then said. “Liu Xing, I must thank you this time.”Confused, Qin Yu said. “Why are you thanking me?”“I’m thanking you for killing Liu Lan.” Said Wen Feng while smiling. “Had you not killed Liu Lan and then ascended to the Divine Realm before him, then I would’ve been out of luck. That Liu Lan and I didn’t get along with each other.”Only then did Qin Yu understand.Qin Yu was very certain in his heart that the reason why he killed Liu Lan, was firstly because Liu Lan planned to kill him right away and clearly did not bother to show any mercy at all. The second reason was to help Wen Feng.“Regarding things like these, there is no need for you to thank me. Had my strength been weak, then I reckon he’d have killed me too.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.“Right.” Wen Feng agreed. He then smiled and looked to Qin Yu. “After His Majesty Xing Yuan ascends to the Divine Realm, you’ll be able to merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. At the same time, you are also able to announce yourself as the Gold Punishment Lord to the rest of the world.”Qin Yu nodded.At this moment, there were still two months till the day of Xing Yuan ascension!Whether it was during the three months from the date of Xing Yuan’s Divine Tribulation till the date of the contest for the position of the Gold Punishment Lord or now when Qin Yu waited for the next two months, Qin Yu had been training in the palace’s room the entire time. He did not enter the second layer of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.It was because the time of the arrival of the Divine Tribulation was very special!Even if Qin Yu hid himself in the Jiang Lan’s Realm, the Divine Tribulation would still arrive. The Divine Tribulation was a kind of cosmic law. It was something that completely ignored the obstruction of the various spaces. The sensation Qin Yu had of the Divine Tribulation’s arrival was ‘a hundred and eight’ years.Regardless of whether Qin Yu hid away in the Jiang Lan’s Realm or the Immortal Realm, the Divine Tribulation would still arrive after a hundred and eight years.The time for the arrival of the Divine Tribulation was not determined by the flow of time in the cosmic space. Rather, it was determined by the amount of time the person who was about to undergo the Divine Tribulation would experience…. For example Qin Yu, if he were to spend a hundred and eight years in the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm, only a bit more than a year would’ve passed in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. However, at that time, the Divine Tribulation would still descend.Thus, it was not worth it for Qin Yu to enter into the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.Seclusion training for two months. With Qin Yu’s current frame of mind when he trains, a long period of seclusion training was extremely effortless for Qin Yu. When Qin Yu opened his eyes… it was already the day before the day of Xing Yuan’s ascension to the Divine Realm.Outside Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan’s palace. At this moment, over a thousand people were gathered there. An overwhelming majority of these thousand plus people were people of the Gold Punishment Sect. There were also a small number of Black Flame Sect and White Profound Sect experts. The reason why this group of people were gathered here was to see Xing Yuan off.In the frontmost of the thousand plus people was a dozen or more people, including Qin Yu, Wu Shan and Ju Mi.“Brother Xing Yuan, I have heard that the Divine Realm is relatively chaotic. The fights and struggles in there are also very ferocious. When you arrive to the Divine Realm, you must continue to put effort into your training. Do not lower the reputation of our Dark Star Realm.” The Black Flame Lord Wu Shan said to Xing Yuan while laughing.Although the Gold Punishment Lord was powerful, before they ascend to the Divine Realm, they are required to return the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl to the clan.A Gold Punishment Lord without the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl would possess strength comparable to ordinary people from the Dark Star Realm that had ascended to the Divine Realm. They also did not possess any superiority in the Divine Realm. In the future, they too would have to work hard and compete in the Divine Realm.“Haha, I still possess this bit of confidence.” Xing Yuan laughed openly. At the same time, he looked to Qin Yu. “Liu Xing, after I leave, you’ll become the Gold Punishment Lord. Remember, the Gold Punishment Lord is the leader of the Three Great Sovereigns, if this lunatic Wu Shan were to become arrogant toward you, you’d just need to teach him a ruthless lesson.”Qin Yu merely smiled.Wu Shan however opened his eyes wide. “Hey, Xing Yuan, don’t you toy with me! You have also seen the exchange between this Liu Xing and Liu Lan. He’s already that powerful before even merging with the Inherited Treasure, once he merges with it… his strength would likely become even more powerful than yours. You, telling him to teach me a lesson… truly too much.”Qin Yu suddenly frowned.“Is it the time of the ascension?” Qin Yu felt a bizarre change to the entire space.During the last time when the Cyan Emperor ascend to the Divine Realm, Qin Yu’s soul’s level was still not high enough. He was still unable to sense that subtle change. However, the current Qin Yu was able to clearly sense the change.Xing Yuan’s expression started to gradually grow solemn. He stopped joking around with all the people present. Xing Yuan looked to everyone present and lightly smiled. “Everyone, I will be ascending now… we shall meet again in the Divine Realm!”“Meet again in the Divine Realm!” Wu Shan, Ju Mi, QIn Yu, Bao Yu, Wen Feng and the rest all said in unison.Xing Yuan’s body started to slowly levitate. Numerous misty starlights shot out from his body. The current Xing Yuan had a kind of aura that makes one want to look up to him. Xing Yuan smiled to everyone. Immediately, the misty starlight on his body became a lot more numerous. In an instant, it had covered his entire body.With a teleportation.Xing Yuan had disappeared. He had disappeared from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm!Qin Yu slightly frowned.From the moment he sensed that Xing Yuan was about to ascend, Qin Yu had assimilated his soul with the entire cosmos. What exactly caused the ascension, Qin Yu was quite curious.“What exactly is this principle? The phenomenon of ascension is very similar to that of Teleportation and Greater Teleportation. It also suddenly caused the person to disappear and the reappear in another area. However, ascension brings one directly into another space. What exactly is the principle behind that?”Qin Yu continued to think about it.However, even after thinking about it for half a day, Qin Yu was still unable to obtain an answer for this question.“Ascension, this could also be considered as a kind of remarkable power. Merely, it is a power that belongs to the cosmos. If I am able to comprehend this sort of remarkable power, won’t I be able to easily travel back and forth between two cosmic spaces?” Qin Yu gasped in admiration in his heart.If the people in the Divine Realm were to hear what Qin Yu had thought, then they would’ve definitely laughed at him for being excessively wild and reckless. After all, not even High Level Heavenly Deities are capable of traveling between two cosmic spaces easily.On the second day after Xing Yuan ascended.Only Qin Yu was standing outside the entrance to the Inherited Palace. Qin Yu raised his head up to look at this ancient Inherited Palace. On the ground beside the Inherited Palace were a lot of dried up branches and dead leaves.“Once I merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, I’ll have enough strength to open the Bewitching God Temple’s Artifacts Palace.” Qin Yu was unable to refrain from thinking about the great amount of treasures within the Artifacts Palace. Those treasures were all items left behind by the master of the Bewitching God Temple, Chehou Yuan. The most precious among the treasures was the core of the Bewitching God Temple created from the Nine Purple Origin Flame Beads.“Your Majesty Liu Xing, come on in.” The hoarse voice of the Guard Elder was heard.Qin Yu slightly took a breath in and then stepped into the Inherited Palace. Once he entered the Inherited Palace, Qin Yu’s gaze was involuntarily cast toward the altar located in the middle of the palace room. The previous two times when he saw the altar, it merely had the faint aura of the Inherited Treasure.However today, Qin Yu discovered that the aura of this altar was over a hundred times more dense.“Your Majesty Liu Xing.” The dark and thin old man walked out from the corner of the room. It was the Guard Elder.The Guard Elder’s dried up and yellow finger was pointed to the middle of the altar. “Your Majesty Liu Xing, the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl is located inside the altar. When fusing with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, there are a couple things you must pay attention to. Your Majesty Liu Xing, please listen carefully.”“Guard Elder, please speak.” Said Qin Yu.At this moment, Qin Yu also didn’t dare to be distracted in the slightest. That was because he knew that it was extremely hard to bind a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. Sometimes, even if one’s soul’s level were high, it would still be of no use. Of course… it was easier the higher one’s soul’s level was.“Your Majesty Liu Xing, in order to merge the Gold Punishment Spiritual Treasure with the body, you must first drip your blood on it to become its master. However, you must remember one thing – when you drip your blood on it, you must pour in Gold Force into your blood. Only then will the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl accept your blood. Otherwise, it will not accept the blood.” Said the Guard Elder slowly.Qin Yu nodded.Binding the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl was indeed a bit troublesome. Even when dripping the blood, one must pour Gold Force into the blood.“In a moment’s time, I will be opening the altar and releasing the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. Your Majesty can be at ease; the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl will not attack anyone who possesses Gold Force. After you succeed with the blood dripping master recognizing oath, you will be able to slowly merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. As for how much you’ll be able to merge with it, it is determined by your body’s cultivation level, your Gold Force’s cultivation level as well as your soul’s cultivation level.” As the Guard Elder said those words, he began to walk up the stairs of the altar.Qin Yu was watching on the side.The Guard Elder walked to the top of the altar. Golden energy shot out from his hands. At the same time, Qin Yu was able to sense that the Guard Elder’s body was emitting a dense Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl’s aura.At last, the Guard Elder smacked down on a certain location on top of the altar with his palm.“Rumble~~~~” The entire altar instantly started to shudder. The Inherited Palace also began vibrating like the altar. It was like an earthquake was happening.“Woosh!”A ray of golden light suddenly soared to the sky from the center of the altar. It was the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl!“Your Majesty Liu Xing, quickly, do the blood dripping master recognizing oath!” Shouted the Guard Elder via voice transmission.With a movement of his foot, Qin Yu appeared beside the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. Furthermore, the space surrounding Qin Yu had turned into a swamp-like substance and stopped the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.A drop of red blood shining with a golden light fell on the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.That Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl instantly stopped resisting. Like a sponge, it directly absorbed that drop of blood. Qin Yu was unable to conceal his happiness. “It’s done. This Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl is mine now.”The Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl directly integrated into Qin Yu’s body.The Guard Elder who saw this entire scene took a deep sigh of relief. With a pale complexion, he nodded and said. “Your Majesty Liu Xing, how far you will be able to merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl will depend on Your Majesty’s own strength. Your Majesty can be at ease and continue to fuse with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl here. There will be no one coming to disturb Your Majesty.”Qin Yu nodded. He directly sat down cross-legged on a praying mat in the Inherited Palace and closed his eyes to start training.“Strange, truly strange. This Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl actually only absorbs Gold Force. It won’t absorb any other kind of energy.” When Qin Yu tried to pour in Nine Steps Force into the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, it was completely rejected by the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.After that, Qin Yu was only able to continue to pour in Gold Force.After he managed to pour a certain amount of Gold Force, the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl started to rotate. At the same time, streams of quicksilver-like golden liquid started to flow out from the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.All the muscles, bones and so on in Qin Yu’s body appeared to have turned into a dried up river; they were frantically absorbing this golden liquid. As this golden liquid assimilated into Qin Yu’s muscles and bones, Qin Yu felt that his entire body’s muscles and bones seemed to have undergone a kind of frightening evolution.With a thought, Qin Yu tried to violently clench his right fist.“Bang!” Qin Yu’s palm actually gave birth to a sonic boom as he closed his hand into a fist violently. Traces of space cracks had even appeared in the surrounding area of his right fist.“So powerful. My power had increased by at least ten times.” Qin Yu was overwhelmed with amazement.Although he managed to clearly sense that his muscles had achieved a advancement by leaps and bounds, Qin Yu was still overwhelmed with amazement by this sort of progress. No wonder the Gold Punishment Lord was the leader among the Three Great Sovereigns.“Such a pure and concise Gold Force. This sort of Gold Force is several realms higher than that of an eighteen star Emperor level expert’s Gold Force.” A sharp sword-like finger ray appeared on the tip of Qin Yu’s finger. Wherever the finger ray passed, a black colored space crack would appear.Qin Yu’s degree of fusion with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl was much higher than all the successive generations of Gold Punishment Lords.This was because Qin Yu’s soul’s level was truly too high. It was several levels higher than that of an ordinary Gold Punishment Lord. Thus, he naturally obtained an even higher degree of fusion with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl… However, he was still unable to completely merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.If he had managed to completely merge with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, then the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl would’ve turned completely into a golden liquid.
Chapter 483 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 56 – Opening the Artifacts PalaceTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip, Robin and Kulops“That’s about it. The strength I have now is sufficient to open the Bewitching God Temple’s Artifacts Palace.” Qin Yu stood up. He didn’t need to reach an extremely high level of fusion with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. All he needed was to fuse well enough to be able to open the Artifacts Palace.That was because no matter how well he fused with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, he would still have to return the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl back to the Dark Star Realm Clan when he ascends.Not return?“Should I keep it and not return it?” A slight smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face.There had already been over seventy thousand successive Gold Punishment Lords. Which meant that the number of Dark Star Realm’s people that had ascended to the Divine Realm numbered over two hundred thousands. And that was merely the number of the Three Great Sovereigns that had ascended to the Divine Realm. There was also a huge number of non-Great Sovereigns who had ascended, and their number was even bigger than that of the Great Sovereigns! Adding the seniors of the Dark Star Realm that had ascended from the time when the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was occupied by the people of the Dark Star Realm, that number became even more frightening.There were definitely over a million people!If Qin Yu were to bring this Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl into the Divine Realm, then once he gets discovered, he’ll be chased to death by over a million people. Furthermore, many of those people within the million people, had ascended over a billion years ago. And that was not even the most frightening aspect… the most frightening thing was the mysterious person who had gifted the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, Black Flame Spiritual Pearl and White Profound Spiritual Pearl to the Dark Star Realm.That mysterious person had said that as the people of the Dark Star Realm Clan were the original residents of this space, those three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures should be the Dark Star Realm’s Clan Inherited Treasures.This mysterious person, would Qin Yu dare offend him?At the very least, the current Qin Yu who had not even reached the Heavenly Deity level still didn’t dare to offend that sort of a mysterious person.“This Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, if we were to just compare its attack power, it’s inferior to my Divine Spear Waning Snow.” Qin Yu did not possess much greed for the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. The Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl would increase the might of one’s body’s muscles and bones. However, no matter how much stronger one’s body’s muscles and bones become, they were still unable to withstand the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact Divine Spear Waning Snow.“This might perhaps be a third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.” Thought Qin Yu.Qin Yu’s guess was incorrect. This Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl was not a third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasure at all. However, this cannot be blamed on him. After all, he only managed to fuse with part of it. As he has not completely fused with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, he did not know about the might of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl after fusing with it completely.“Congratulations Your Majesty.” The hoarse voice of the Guard Elder sounded.Qin Yu looked to the Guard Elder in the distance, who was still sitting there quietly in a cross-legged position. He slightly nodded and said. “Guard Elder, now that I have become the Gold Punishment Lord, I ordinarily do not have a lot of matters to take care of, right?”The Guard Elder nodded and said. “Your Majesty, the Gold Punishment Lord, the Black Flame Lord as well as the White Profound Lord, the Three Great Sovereigns, are only there for the function of intimidation. They are there so that people with ambition will not wage war through the entirety of the Dark Star Realm. Generally, Your Majesty will not have many matters to attend to.”Qin Yu smiled.Sure enough, it was as he had anticipated. According to the history of the Dark Star Realm that Qin Yu knew, the Dark Star Realm was originally in a condition of chaotic warfare. Only after the appearance of the Three Great Spiritual Pearls did the Dark Star Realm walk down the road of peace. During times of peace, the Three Great Sovereigns did not have anything to do at all.As for the trifling matters, the Three Great Vice Sect Masters were able to take care of them completely. Of course, the current Gold Punishment Sect only has two Great Vice Sect Masters.Qin Yu nodded to the Guard Elder. He then exited the Inherited Palace and left the location.“Wen Feng, if something is to happen, just send me a transmission. I will be leaving for a period of time to train in peace.” Qin Yu merely left this message for Wen Feng and then directly left the Gold Punishment Star.Qin Yu was a very peculiar Gold Punishment Lord. Right after formally taking on the position of the Gold Punishment Lord, without even using any of his power and privilege, he directly left.Qin Yu’s departure had caused the numerous people who had arrived at the Gold Punishment Star to pay the new Gold Punishment Lord a visit, to travel in vain. Of course, those people were all gasping with admiration in their heart… that this new Gold Punishment Lord who didn’t care about fame and all, had decided to immediately go and train right after becoming the Gold Punishment Lord; he was truly a hardworking cultivator.Qin Yu directly rushed towards the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple.Qin Yu did not enter the Bewitching God Temple from the side of the Dark Star Realm. Instead, he went to the entrance located in the Demon Realm. That was because Qin Yu did not wish for others to know that he had entered the Bewitching God Temple and it was more secretive for him to enter through the entrance located in the Demon Realm.The cosmic space was filled with nothingness. Qin Yu was able to clearly see the enormous space crack located not far from him.That enormous planet composed of Cosmic Golden Fragmentary Stream and a stream of black specks appeared before him. Qin Yu knew that he had arrived near the entrance of the Bewitching God Temple. Immediately, he sped up.When Qin Yu reached the Bewitching God Temple’s entrance, he was shocked to discover that….“There’s truly a large number of people here. There are actually several tens of Emperor level experts and several hundreds of level nine Demon King practitioners.” Qin Yu raised his head and gasped in his mind. Ever since the seal on the entrance had been broken through by Qin Yu, none of the major powers dared to seal it again, and many Emperor level experts as well as level nine King level experts had all come here to try out their luck.When Qin Yu flew into the entrance tunnel, the people there immediately stepped aside. The weakest person among this group of people was a level nine Demon King. The strongest was a level seven Devil Emperor. This group of people all moved aside respectfully to let Qin Yu enter.“You all, stop for now.” Qin Yu said straightforwardly.“Senior.” The several tens of level nine Demon Kings immediately stopped and looked to Qin Yu respectfully. For even a level seven Devil Emperor to step aside, they were able to guess Qin Yu’s strength.Confused, Qin Yu said. “Even you all, with the strength of level nine Demon Kings, have also come here? Could it be that you all believe that you too are capable of obtaining a Divine Artifact?”An enchanting woman from the fox clan among them said. “Senior, could it be that you didn’t know that more than ten years ago, a level nine Golden Immortal managed to luckily obtain a Divine Artifact outside of the Illusion Array?”“Such a thing happened?” Qin Yu was unable to refrain his shock.The strongest among them, the level seven Devil Emperor said. “Senior, that Illusion Array is unceasingly changing. Because of the change in the energy, the location of those Divine Artifacts are also unceasingly changing. It is possible for there to be Divine Artifacts that will be shifted to the most external edge of the Illusion Array. In that case, even those who are weaker would be able to obtain a Divine Artifact. Although the possibility is not high, such a thing has happened numerous times before in history. This is also the reason why the Chaotic Star Field is so chaotic.”“Merely, because of the fact that the major powers decided to unify and seal the entrance later on, this had caused there to be a very small number of people coming here to try out their luck. However, ever since Senior Qin Yu broke the seal with a single spear strike of his, the number of people that come to try out their luck has grown exponentially.” Said the level seven Devil Emperor attentively.That fox woman gasped in admiration. “Fortunately Senior Qin Yu split open the seal. Otherwise, we would not even have the opportunity to try out our luck.” The rest of the people all voiced their approval.Qin Yu came to understand it completely now.“Seems like after I broke through the seal, a lot of people have become grateful to me.” Qin Yu couldn’t help but smile in his heart.“Well then, you all can continue.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.After that, Qin Yu turned into a ray of light and directly rushed into the Bewitching God Temple’s entrance. After that, his body turned into a blur and disappeared before all these people’s eyes. Seeing Qin Yu disappearing before them like so, those people looked at each other in dismay.“Teleporting inside the Bewitching God Temple?”“He rushed into the Divine Illusion Array of the Bewitching God Temple.” Said that level seven Devil Emperor. He was still able to barely see Qin Yu’s movement. The level seven Devil Emperor gasped in his heart. “He’s truly a super expert.”Qin Yu did not use teleportation at all. Instead, he had sped up to his peak speed and directly rushed into the Divine Illusion Array. Qin Yu did not fear being trapped by the Illusion Array at all. Firstly, he possessed the Bewitching God Painting. Secondly, once he enters the Bewitching God Temple, the housekeeper of the Bewitching God Temple, Uncle Fu, would naturally discover him and would control the Illusion Array to step aside and create a path for him.Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness easily discovered a large number of Divine Artifacts. However, he did not bother to take even a single one of them.After flying for a long time, an empty space finally appeared before him. Floating inside the empty space was a palace… the Bewitching God Temple. Qin Yu directly flew towards the entrance of the true body of the Bewitching God Temple.The gate of the Bewitching God Temple was open. Standing by the doorsteps of the gate was a person… Uncle Fu.“Qin Yu, it’s only been several tens of years, how come you’re back again?” Uncle Fu had a confused expression on his face. However, he was still smiling. “Well then, come inside first, we’ll talk after.”Like walking into his own house, Qin Yu casually walked into the Bewitching God Temple. “Uncle Fu, my coming to the Bewitching God Temple this time… I reckon that soon, you’ll be leaving this location together with me.“Leave here?” Uncle Fu shook his head repeatedly. “I absolutely cannot disobey the orders that my master gave me. My master said that before the Bewitching God Temple attains a new master, I must manage the Bewitching God Temple and cannot leave it.”“Uncle Fu, you need to listen carefully to your master, Senior Chehou’s, previous condition… ‘before the Bewitching God Temple attains a new master.’” Said Qin Yu while smiling. “And now, I am confident that I will be able to open the Artifacts Palace.”After Qin Yu finished saying that, he began to walk through the Bewitching God Temple’s Front Palace’s corridors with long steps.Uncle Fu was slightly shocked. He only managed to react after being stunned for a moment. He immediately walked over to Qin Yu and said anxiously. “Qin Yu, what do you mean? You said you’re able to open the Artifacts Palace?”By the time Qin Yu reached the courtyard, Uncle Fu was right beside him.“Qin Yu, can you explain yourself?” Uncle Fu was somewhat anxious.Qin Yu turned around and looked at Uncle Fu. While smiling, he said. “Uncle Fu, I’ll tell you about this explicitly. I currently possess enough strength to open the Artifacts Palace. In other words… I am able to obtain the core of the Bewitching God Temple. From today onwards, I shall be the new master of the Bewitching God Temple. And you… will not have to continue to stay here and wait. You can follow me and wander the world with me.”Uncle Fu calmed down after a short moment.“Impossible. I am very certain about your strength. It has only been several tens of years, how is it possible for you to reach that level so quickly?” Said Uncle Fu with absolute certainty.Qin Yu smiled and said. “Uncle Fu, since you don’t believe me, I shall show you, is that fine?”After Qin Yu finished saying those words, he started to walk towards the entrance of the Artifacts Palace.Uncle Fu slightly frowned and stood behind Qin Yu. Like last time, Qin Yu managed to easily discover the crucial mechanism. The bottom of the entrance door started shining with a cyan radiance. At the same time, two protrusions appeared.“Uncle Fu, all I need to do is pull this door up, right?” Qin Yu turned around and glanced at Uncle Fu.“Right.” At this moment, Uncle Fu was also influenced by Qin Yu’s confidence. He felt that… Qin Yu might actually be able to succeed. Merely, Uncle Fu found it a bit hard to believe. According to the original plan, he was supposed to wait for Qin Yu to return from the Divine Realm one day and then succeed this Bewitching God Temple.Qin Yu grabbed onto one protrusion with each of his hands.Qin Yu violently pulled with his arms. His muscles started bulging. The golden liquid that originated from the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl started to flow through his muscles. Qin Yu’s strength was increasing unceasingly.“Clang~~~” The dark red colored door was vibrating unceasingly and giving off noises.As Qin Yu increased his power, the vibration of the dark red colored door became even more intense. The smile on Qin Yu’s face also grew even more brilliant. Qin Yu understood very well, that at the current moment, he had not even used a third of his strength.“He!!” [TL: This is a shout.]Qin Yu’s two hands started to violently increase in strength!Following a loud shout, that dark red colored door started to violently rush upward. With a kacha sound, the door slid into the mechanism located above.At the instant when Qin Yu pulled the dark red colored door up, Qin Yu felt a peculiar aura surging from within the Artifacts Palace, rushing towards him. Qin Yu could sense that… it was the aura emitted by the gathering of all kinds of treasures. Even though he had yet to enter it, Qin Yu was still able to tell that there were numerous treasures within the Artifacts Palace. It was definitely a shocking number.Qin Yu’s eyes started to shine. He stared at the deep passageway that appeared after the entrance door of the Artifacts Palace was pulled open.“Qin Yu, you actually managed to succeed, you actually managed to succeed!” Uncle Fu had a hard to come by pleasantly surprised expression on his face. Uncle Fu was a puppet that possessed intelligence. Puppets, they are things that only top artifact forging experts of the Divine Realm are able to create. They are different from the Artificial Intelligence of the science and technology cosmos of the Mortal Realms.Puppets also possessed emotions like people. They also possessed thoughts like people. They merely do not possess the most fundamental soul and thus are unable to comprehend the space.“Uncle Fu, do you know of the layout of the interior of the Artifacts Palace?” Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu. Qin Yu did not wish to run around all over the place like a blind man.Uncle Fu was slightly excited. “Of course I do. The Artifacts Palace is the location in the entire Bewitching God Temple with the most treasures. There are also precious crafting materials, all sorts of precious crystals and numerous Heavenly Divine Artifacts within it. Of course… the most precious ones are still the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures!”Qin Yu gulped. His heart was beating rapidly.Uncle Fu sighed. “Sigh, back when my master was still here, the number of treasures in the Artifacts Palace was much bigger than it is now. Because my master wanted to create the legendary Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure, he had already stopped caring about everything else. Not only did he take with him some of the rare materials, he even melted down five Grandmist Spiritual Treasures to obtain the Grandmist Spiritual Energy within them. He was worried that there would not be enough Grandmist Spiritual Energy for the Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.”“Five Grandmist Spiritual Treasures? Melted down?” Qin Yu felt a bit distressed upon hearing that.Had he not melted them down, then wouldn’t Qin Yu be able to obtain even more Grandmist Spiritual Treasures? Of course, one cannot be too greedy. Qin Yu tried hard to calm his mind.“Fortunately, my master still thought of his successor. Otherwise, the remaining Grandmist Spiritual Treasures might have all been melted down. Come, follow me to the most internal private room. The remaining Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are those that my master had left behind because he considered them to be the most beneficial to the successor.”As he said that, Uncle Fu took the lead to enter the deep and serene passageway. As for Qin Yu, he started following behind Uncle Fu. Just like this, the two of them followed the passageway and walked to the deepest parts of the palace…
Chapter 484 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 57 – Three Grandmist Spiritual TreasuresTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip, RobinIn the deep, serene and complicated passageway of the Artifacts Palace, Qin Yu was walking behind Uncle Fu. They were walking deeper into the passageway at a steady pace. Qin Yu was inspecting the walls on the two sides of the passageway. His mind was also entirely free from worry. On the walls were relief carvings. Furthermore, the carvings were all of sceneries of nature. That sort of natural and flowing artistic sensation rushed toward Qin Yu.“Uncle Fu, looking at these relief carvings, the person who carved these should be a great expert, right? Uncle Fu, do you know who created these relief carvings?” Asked Qin Yu. Qin Yu thought that as the ‘Craftsman God’ Chehou Yuan possessed such a high position, it was unlikely for him to waste time and slowly carve those carvings.“All these relief carvings were personally carved by my master back then.” Uncle Fu’s response had shocked Qin Yu.“You said all these carvings were made by Senior Chehou?”“That’s right.” Uncle Fu had an expression of yearning. “To hold the position of number one artifacts forging expert in the Divine Realm, the amount of knowledge one must accumulate is astounding. For example, you need to know how and where to collect ores and possess the ability to find treasures. One must also know how to set up formation arrays and barriers. Then there’s the need for one to be able to delicately control flames. And then one must know how to carve and draw… in order to become an artifact forging expert, one must learn a lot of things.”“Furthermore, an artifact forging expert is usually also an alchemy expert. Merely, to concoct pills is a tier lower than to forge artifacts. The most important aspect of pill concoction is the pill furnace, the control over the flames and the understanding of all sorts of materials and the nature of medicines… Of course, when comparing the concoction of pills to the forging and refinement of artifacts, pill concoction is still much easier.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile.[ED(Robin): Please note that “refine”, means to improve something, or make it purer, not create! Which is also the only way “refine” is going to be used in the future ???? ]Qin Yu was carefully listening.Qin Yu had already decided to become an artifact forging expert at Chehou Yuan’s level or even better.“There are that many requirements in order to successfully create an artifact?” Though Qin Yu with amazement.Uncle Fu lightly smiled and said. “Of course, in order to become an artifact forging expert, one has to become quite knowledgeable. Among all the different requirements, the hardest one, the most important one and the most fundamental one is… the comprehension of formation arrays and barriers.”“Qin Yu, you ought to know that any single great master of artifact creation is a great master of formation arrays!” Said Uncle Fu with certainty. “They are required to set up a powerful formation array and place it on the artifacts at the moment the artifacts are formed. Furthermore, the formation array must not have even the slightest restrictive effect on the artifact. It must allow the artifact to display its strongest might… in short, creating artifacts is extremely complicated.”Qin Yu instead smiled.“creating artifacts is complicated? Doesn’t this mean that the more complicated the process of creating artifacts is, the fewer artifact refinement experts there are in the Divine Realm?” Qin Yu started to grow excited. The fewer artifact refinement experts there were, the higher his status would be when he becomes one.And at this moment, Qin Yu and Uncle Fu had just arrived at a relatively spacious and empty main hall.The main hall was extremely elegant. In the four corners of this main hall were four different passageways. Qin Yu and Uncle Fu had walked in from one of the passageway.“These three passageways signifies three different levels of treasures. The first passageway contains the most rooms. However, the things within it are also the most ordinary.” Uncle Fu pointed to a passageway on an opposite corner to them.Qin Yu slightly nodded. His gaze immediately shifted towards the other two passageways.“As for the second passageway, it could be considered as the place where the comparatively precious things were placed in. There are also a lot of rooms in there. Come with me!” As Uncle Fu said that, he stepped into the second passageway.Qin Yu wanted to inspect his surrounding with his Divine Awareness. However, in here, his Divine Awareness was unable to permeate far away.After stepping into the second passageway, Qin Yu glanced over and saw several rooms.“Uncle Fu, what sort of things are in these rooms?” Qin Yu asked.Uncle Fu smiled and said. “Mostly Heavenly Divine Artifacts and some precious materials are placed in the rooms of the second passageway. Of course, there are also some exotic and valuable items for collections and so on.”“Come, let’s enter this room first.” Said Uncle Fu as he opened the first room.Qin Yu followed Uncle Fu and entered into the first room. Once he entered the room, the scenery before him instantly changed dramatically. That room turned into an enormous courtyard several hundred of meters large.The ground on this courtyard was filled with slate. At the same time, numerous stone display desks were placed around the courtyard. Each of the stone display desks were half a man’s height and had a weapon placed on top of it.From a glance, one could see several tens of stone display desks in this courtyard. On each of the stone display desks was a Heavenly Divine Artifact.“Sixty-eight Heavenly Divine Artifacts, that many?” Qin Yu’s eyes started shining. He was carefully looking at each and every one of the Heavenly Divine Artifact placed on top of the numerous stone display desks. Some of the Heavenly Divine Artifacts were large battle knives. Some were long and narrow battle knives. Some were machetes. Some were long swords. Some were daggers. Some were flexible swords. Some were nine sectioned whips…All kinds of Heavenly Divine Artifacts were placed before him. This was a scene that brought about a burst of shock.“Qin Yu, these sixty-eight Heavenly Divine Artifacts are all items that my master personally created when he was bored. Among them, there are forty-two Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts, twenty-two Mid Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts and four High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts for a total of sixty-eight.”Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu with a confused expression. “Uncle Fu, how come there are so few High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts?”“Qin Yu, you’re being too greedy.” Said Uncle Fu as he laughed. “Qin Yu, you need to understand that even the most skillful housewife cannot cook without rice. In order to create a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, it requires extremely precious materials. You must know that generally, High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts are comparable to Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, although it’s only second and third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasures!”Qin Yu understood it now.The Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were so exceptional because they possessed Grandmist Spiritual Energy. However, High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts did not possess Grandmist Spiritual Energy. To attain such might, without possessing Grandmist Spiritual Energy, meant that the materials used to create them needed to be extremely precious.“In order to create a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, extremely precious materials are needed. My master does not have much influence and power in the Divine Realm. While he was able to gather ordinary materials by himself, in order to obtain precious materials, one needed to possess a great amount of power and influence or be extremely lucky. My master only obtained some precious materials through receiving them as payments when he helped others refine or create artifacts.”Uncle Fu sighed and said. “My master moved about unhindered in the Divine Realm for so many years; every time when he would refine and create artifacts for others, his price was always extremely high. Only with that method did he manage to gather a large number of precious materials and create a large number of Heavenly Divine Artifacts and Grandmist Spiritual Treasures!”“In regards to the number of Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, my master possessed enough to compete with a single power of influence in the Divine Realm.” Uncle Fu seemed to be very proud.Back then, the ‘Craftsman God’ Chehou Yuan possessed an extremely high status in the Divine Realm. That was because he did not belong to any party and was number one in the ability to create artifacts. Thus, none of the powers in the Divine Realm dared to offend him.That was also the reason why Chehou Yuan was able to still exist safely even though he possessed all those treasures.“Unfortunately, my master gave everything up in order to create an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure. All of the most precious and peculiar materials, as well as many of the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, were melted down by him to obtain their Grandmist Spiritual Energy. The amount of riches within the Bewitching God Temple is now less than half of what it was before.” Explained Uncle Fu to Qin Yu.Qin Yu nodded and said: “I understand.”Qin Yu completely understood everything now.Merely from the words left behind by Chehou Yuan, Qin Yu was able to sense the longing that he had for the legendary ‘Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.’ For Chehou Yuan to actually leave behind all these items for him, he was already extremely generous.“Uncle Fu, bring me to the other rooms.” Qin Yu turned around and followed Uncle Fu out of this room.Of the Artifacts Palace’s Three Great Corridor Passageways, Qin Yu followed Uncle Fu and checked out several rooms of the second corridor passageway. The items in this second corridor was truly incomparably precious. Any random one among them could become an Inherited Treasure in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.“These precious materials, when will I be able to possess enough strength to use them to create Heavenly Divine Artifacts?” Qin Yu sighed. He then followed Uncle Fu and left the final room in the second corridor passageway.Qin Yu was able to tell that those precious materials would not melt even if they were burned by the Black Divine Flames.After walking out of the second corridor passageway, Qin Yu and Uncle Fu had returned to the main hall.“There are only two rooms in the third corridor passageway.” Uncle Fu pointed to the most important passageway. The walls on this corridor passageway were completely black. The carvings on the wall were mainly black and red.Upon entering into the third passageway, Qin Yu was shocked to see a dragon head! The scarlet red eyes of the dragon’s head were fixed on him.“Huff!” Qin Yu felt that his heart had violently jumped. He only now discovered that it was an enormous carving. The entire corridor passageway was a complete carving of a dragon. That dragon carving was giving off a natural domineering aura.Qin Yu gasped in admiration in his heart. “Senior’s Chehou Yuan’s carving ability had indeed reached a heaven startling level. As the number one artifact craftsman in the entire Divine Realm, he is indeed not simple.”There were only two rooms in this black corridor. One was on the right and the other on the left.“In this room, there are three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. They are the treasures that my master has left for you.” Uncle Fu pointed to the room on the right.Confused, Qin Yu pointed to the room to the left and said. “What is in this room?”“The things in the left room are the most precious. Don’t worry, let’s check out the room on the right first and then come back to check the room on the left.” Uncle Fu smiled as he pushed open the door to the right room.“Most precious?” Qin Yu felt puzzled. “It’s even more precious than three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures? What might it be?”“Qin Yu, quickly, come in.” Shouted Uncle Fu as he stood by the doorway of the room to the right.Qin Yu decided to temporarily not think about the thing that was inside the room to the left. He followed Uncle Fu and stepped into the room to the right. This room to the right had three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures in it.Right after he entered into the room, the scene before him instantly changed again.“Huahua~~~~” [This is supposed to be moving water sound.]Before Qin Yu was even able to clearly see the scene before him, he could already hear the sound of the rushing stream. Qin Yu looked to the location where the sound was originated from. It was actually an unceasingly flowing river. A little boat was even floating on the river.Qin Yu carefully looked to his surroundings.The layout of this room was a ravine. There was a single river. Floating on the river was a boat. On the shore beside the river was a stone house. Beside the stone house was a tall gray stone pagoda.“Uncle Fu, where are the three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?” Confused, Qin Yu asked.Uncle Fu shook his head and smiled. “Haha, the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures possess intelligence. If they don’t wish for you to discover them, then even if they were right in front of you, you still wouldn’t be able to discover them. Look carefully… you ought to be able to see two Grandmist Spiritual Treasures now. They are right in front of you.”“In front of me?”Confused, Qin Yu started to carefully pay attention and look at the various things before him. That floating little boat, the flowing river, the stone house, the stone pagoda, as well as the stones, flowers, plants and so on.“That little boat is odd.” Qin Yu suddenly stared at that little boat.The river was flowing unceasingly. The little boat was floating on the river, swaying back and forth unceasingly. However, regardless of how much it swayed, it still remained in the same location. It did not follow the river stream at all.“That’s right, that boat is one of the three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. This boat is called Divine Boat Craft Flying Yamen. It is a flying Spiritual Treasure. In the Divine Realm, it is also an extremely precious Grandmist Spiritual Treasure of the support type.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile. “Look again, see if you can find any other things that might be a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.”[TL: The Yamen(Yuan) is the same Yuan as the Yuan from Chehou Yuan. Guess he named the boat after himself. Yuan means Yamen, a magistrate/officer’s residence in ancient china or axel. Flying axel just sounds weird…]Qin Yu smiled helplessly. “I’m not certain. I think it must be either that stone house or that stone pagoda.”Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu in shock. He nodded and said with a smile. “That’s right. That stone pagoda is another Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. It is also an extremely precious support type Grandmist Spiritual Treasure…. God Sealing Pagoda!”“God Sealing Pagoda?” Qin Yu looked at the gray colored ordinary stone pagoda in shock. Never had he expected for this stone pagoda to possess such a dreadful name.“As for the third Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, it is located within that stone house. It is the only attack type Grandmist Spiritual Treasure among the three.” Uncle Fu smiled and he walked toward that stone house. Qin Yu immediately followed suit.The stone house was not large. After stepping into it, a single praying mat was located in the center of the house.Behind the praying mat and located next to the wall was a long display desk. A disk was placed on top of the long display desk. On top of the disk was a pair of almost transparent gloves!Qin Yu looked to this pair of gloves in shock. If it weren’t for him paying close attention, he might easily have missed seeing it.“This pair of gloves is the only attack type Grandmist Spiritual Treasure among the three. Its name is ‘Snowthread Gloves.’” Uncle Fu said while smiling. “These three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were especially left behind by my master for you. With these three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, as long as you reach the Heavenly Deity stage, you’ll be able to move about unhindered in the Divine Realm.”Qin Yu slightly nodded.Qin Yu was not certain about exactly what advantages these three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures would provide. He must first bind them in order to find out. However, binding Grandmist Spiritual Treasures was no simple task.“Binding these Grandmist Spiritual Treasures will require time and energy. There’s no need for me to worry about them for now. I shall go and and see the other room first.” Qin Yu nodded and then said to Uncle Fu. “Uncle Fu, let’s go and check out the other room.”Even now, Qin Yu was still thinking about the other room. After all, the things in the room to the left were even more precious than those in the room to the right.
Chapter 485 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 58 – ‘Array Path,’ Nine Hundred ScrollsTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip, Robin and KulopsUncle Fu nodded and smiled. “There’s no need to worry about it for now. Although the thing in the other room is important, these three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are Spiritual Treasures that you must have when you walk about the Divine Realm in the future.”“Uncle Fu, please explain.” Qin Yu immediately detected that there was something he must know.“The Divine Craft ‘Flying Yamen’ and the God Sealing Pagoda are both support type Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, if you have the time, then it’s best for you to first bind the Divine Craft Flying Yamen, then the God Sealing Pagoda and finally the Snowthread Gloves.” Recommended Uncle Fu.Confused, Qin Yu asked. “Uncle Fu, why is it that you suggest I bind the attack type Grandmist Spiritual Treasure last?”From Qin Yu’s point of View, he felt that increasing his strength would be the most important after arriving in the Divine Realm and so he should bind the Snowthread Gloves as early as possible.Uncle Fu smiled and said as he shook his head. “You already possess the Divine Spear Waning Snow. Your attack power is already very strong. Furthermore, a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact is a lot easier to bind compared to a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. Thus, you do not have to hasten yourself in binding the Snowthread Gloves.”“That I agree. The Heavenly Divine Artifacts are indeed easier to bind than Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.” Qin Yu nodded and said while smiling.One could easily bind a Heavenly Divine Artifact the moment one’s soul reaches the Golden Soul Pellet stage. Furthermore, if one were to compare might, then High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts were comparable to the second or third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.Of course, even High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts have those that are inferior and superior to each other.“These three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures shall be left here for the time being. You can bind them when you have time in the future. These Grandmist Spiritual Treasures can only display their strongest might after being bound completely.” Said Uncle Fu. “Come, follow me, let’s go to the other room.”Qin Yu immediately nodded. He followed Uncle Fu and left this room with the three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures and entered into the other room.Once they entered the room.The scenery in the surrounding took a huge change again. Qin Yu was carefully surveying his surroundings.This was a misty and boundless starry space. Numerous bright stars were radiating fascinating and brilliant starlights from afar. As for the location where Qin Yu stood, it was the outer space.Before Qin Yu, at a distance not far from him, was a house floating in the starry space. Numerous golden scrolls were floating surrounding this house. There were over several thousand golden scrolls. These several thousand golden scrolls were floating around the house just like that.“What is going on here?” Confused, Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu beside him.Uncle Fu smiled and said. “Qin Yu, while this place appears to be a starry space, but the actual space here is not large at all. Regardless of whether from the front to the back, left to the right or top to the bottom, they are all only about a mile in distance. It is impossible for you to walk past the one mile distance.”“Uncle Fu, you mean that… those stars are all just illusions?” Qin Yu instantly understood.“That’s right, they’re illusions.” Uncle Fu smiled. “Although my master’s strength was very powerful, he had still not reached the level to create a large space. The most he could do is create a small scale space.”Uncle Fu pointed to that stone house floating in the middle. “Inside that stone house is the core of the entire Bewitching God Temple, the Refining Flame Wristband created from the nine Purple Origin Flame Beads.”“Refining Flame Wristband?” Qin Yu unable to refrain his excitement. This Refining Flame Wristband was the core that controlled the entire Bewitching God Temple.“The Purple Origin Flame Beads are by themselves third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. My master had merged the nine Purple Origin Flame Beads into one and created the Refining Flame Wristband. With the Refining Flame Wristband, your ability to use Flames would increase. As for the Refining Flame Wristband itself, it is a second-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. However, for the artifact refining experts, it is comparable to first-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.” Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu while smiling.Qin Yu immediately managed to guess it.To artifact refining experts, the ability to control Flames was extremely important. Not only must they control the heat of the Flames, they must also control the level of the Flames. And this Refining Flame Wristband was created through nine Purple Origin Flame Beads. Thus, it was surely a fire-attribute Spiritual Treasure and the assistance it would provide in artifact refinement and creation was self evident.“Qin Yu, the most important thing that you must do right now is… to immediately bind this ‘Refining Flame Wristband.’” Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu.Qin Yu nodded. His gaze was cast toward that floating house.Once he has bound the ‘Refining Flame Wristband,’ it means that he would be able to control the entire Bewitching God Temple. Qin Yu immediately stepped forward onto the empty space and proceed to walk toward the floating house. However, after merely walking a couple steps, Qin Yu’s gaze was cast toward those golden scrolls.“What are those scrolls?” Asked Qin Yu in confusion.Uncle Fu explained while smiling. “Those scrolls are scrolls that contain martial techniques, secrets or all sorts of other different kinds of knowledges. That are comparable to the jade slips of your Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Merely, the amount of information that these scrolls can contain within them is a lot more than those jade slips.”Qin Yu was surprised.Qin Yu was very familiar with the amount of information that a jade slip could contain. That amount could be considered as being astonishingly large…. even his own master, Lei Wei’s science and technology cosmos’s so-called storage drive would not even be able to control a ten thousandth of the amount of information that a jade slip could contain.Those golden scrolls, their capacity was actually much larger than even the jade slips. They were truly deserving to be the things used to store information in the Divine Realm.“Qin Yu, the reason why I said the things in this room are more precious than the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures in the room to the right was primarily because of these scrolls.” Said Uncle Fu with a serious expression.Qin Yu was unable to refrain his shock.Qin Yu had originally thought that it was because of the Refining Flame Wristband that Uncle Fu said the things in this room was more precious than the things in the previous room. Never had he expected that it was actually these scrolls.“These several thousand scrolls are priceless. They describe numerous medicinal herbs, peculiar demon beasts of the Divine Realm and the numerous dangerous places in the Divine Realm… and so on. Essentially, they contain information on numerous things. In order to become a master artifact craftsman with a majestic status, one must know all of the information in those scrolls!” Said Uncle Fu as he pointed to those floating scrolls.Qin Yu looked to those golden scrolls with blazing gaze.“Those golden scrolls are the recordings of all my master’s knowledge. Of course, a lot of the things are indescribable with words. For those things, you can only go and comprehend them yourself.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile. “However, the path of a thousand miles begins with a single step. The most important thing for you right now is to grasp the single skill that is the most fundamental and the most important to artifact refining experts… Formation Arrays!”“Formation Arrays? Which scroll is that?” Qin Yu asked.Qin Yu was already determined to study and learn it.“Which scroll?” Uncle Fu was slightly shocked.Qin Yu smiled and said. “That’s right, what’s wrong, Uncle Fu? Could it be that you’re telling me that a single Golden Scroll was not enough to record all the comprehension and knowledge that Senior Chehou have toward the Formation Arrays?” Joked Qin Yu.“Of course. My master had left behind the ‘Array Path’ which is composed of nine hundred scrolls. You must completely comprehend these nine hundred scrolls in order to take the first step toward the road to becoming an expert of the formation arrays!” Uncle Fu said as he nodded.Qin Yu felt a burst of pressure. “Uncle Fu, please don’t tell me that these nine hundred scrolls, each and every one of them are full?!”Qin Yu was already very clear with the capacity of jade slips. In all these years, he had never once seen a jade slip that was completely full with information. As for the Golden Scrolls that possessed even more capacity than the jade slips, Qin Yu felt dreadful just imagining how much information a single Golden Scroll would be able to contain.Even though a Divine Realm expert’s Divine Awareness possessed an extremely calculating speed, to completely read over an entire Golden Scroll’s information, it was still very frightening.“These nine hundred scrolls, not every one of them are full.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile. Qin Yu immediately had a sigh of relief. Uncle Fu continued. “Of these nine hundred scrolls, the first eight hundred ninety-nine scrolls are completely full. As for the final scroll, it is only half full.”Qin Yu was dumbstruck for a moment.“Uncle Fu, how long would it take for me to finish reading all these nine hundred scrolls?” Qin Yu asked sorrowfully. Even now, Qin Yu was still not certain about the capacity of the Golden Scrolls from the Divine Realm. While it possessed a bigger capacity than the jade slips, but how much bigger?Uncle Fu smiled and said. “I am not certain myself. But I estimate that…. if you don’t stop to eat or rest, then it would take you at least several hundred years in order to finish reading all nine hundred scrolls. Once you finished reading them, it meant that you’ll have taken the first step toward the first level of the ‘Array Path!’”“It’ll require several hundred years to finish reading the nine hundred scrolls? And that’s only the first step toward comprehending the first level?” Although Qin Yu was prepared to meet the difficulties in becoming an expert artifacts craftsman, but merely comprehending the formation array technique had already shocked him.“You misheard. I said… after finished the nine hundred scrolls, you’ll be able to take the first step and be qualified to advance toward the first level of the ‘Array Path.’ At that time, you are not anywhere close to comprehending the first level.” Said Uncle Fu with a light smile.Qin Yu felt a burst of pressure.In order to become the number one artifacts craftsman in the entire Divine Realm, it was extremely extremely difficult.“Uncle Fu, how long would it take to comprehend the first level of ‘Array Path?’” Qin Yu asked.Uncle Fu lightly smiled and said. “If you’re fast, then you’ll be able to accomplish that in several tens of thousands of years. If you’re slow… then even in several billions of years you’re still not at the first level yet.”“Several tens of thousand of years?” Qin Yu nodded in his heart. If others could accomplish that, then he would definitely be able to accomplish that even better.Uncle Fu continued. “Qin Yu, the comprehension of the ‘Array Path’ is different from the comprehension of ordinary martial techniques. It is not something that is better the faster you managed to comprehend it. On the contrary… those with better aptitude, the longer they linger in the comprehension of the first layer, the better it is.”“My master had used over a hundred million years in order to comprehend the first level of the ‘Array Path.’ He then spent over ten millions of years in order to comprehend the second level of the ‘Array Path.’” Said Uncle Fu slowly.“However, later on, my master decided to discard all of the comprehensions he attained in the past and study the ‘Array Path’ from scratch again. This time, it took him over a billion years to comprehend the first level of the ‘Array Path.’ However, it took him merely two hours to comprehend the second level of the ‘Array Path!’”Qin Yu was shocked. He was unable to refrain his eyes from showing a shocked expression.This Chehou Yuan had a great perserverance. At the start, he merely spent a million years to comprehend the first level of the ‘Array Path’ and ten million years to reach the second level of the ‘Array Path.’However, he actually dared to abandon all that he had comprehended to study the Array Path from the beginning again. It then took him over a billion years in order to better comprehend the first level of the Array Path. And then, it took him only two hours to comprehend the second level of the Array Path.A million years. Ten million years.A billion years. Two hours.“What’s going on? What exactly is going on?” Qin Yu felt that an enormous mystery was contained within it.Uncle Fu lightly smiled and said. “The ‘Array Path’ is a test of one’s talent and patience. My master possessed exceptional heaven bestowed talents, great perseverance and great knowledge. Only through all of that did he managed to comprehend the third level of the ‘Array Path.’ This had also allowed my master to become the number one artifact craftsman of the Divine Realm!”“Had it not been for the second re-comprehension, it was simply impossible for my master to manage to comprehend the ‘Array Path’s’ second level.” Said Uncle Fu indifferently.“What’s going on? Didn’t Senior Chehou already manage to comprehend the first level? Why did he start comprehending from scratch again?” Qin Yu felt that his mind had turned somewhat chaotic.Uncle Fu shook his head and said. “That was because the first level that everyone comprehends is different.”“The different first level that one comprehends would determine the future that one would have in the ‘Array Path.’ Qin Yu, what I am about to tell you is also what my master told me to inform his successor before he left. For the first level of the ‘Array Path,’ you must reach the most perfect comprehension. That’s right, the most perfect comprehension… You must try your best to penetrate deeper into it.”Qin Yu felt a bit pained.Undoubtedly, that Chehou Yuan possessed a very high talent. However, he still spent a billion years in order to comprehend the first level of the ‘Array Path.’ How long would Qin Yu have to take? Does he have that sufficient amount of time?“Uncle Fu, I shall first refine and bind the Refining Flame Wristband. Regarding the comprehension of this ‘Array Path,’ I’ll figure that out after I ascend to the Divine Realm. The time that I have in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm is already insufficient.” As Qin Yu said that, he stepped into the stone house.In about a hundred and eight years, Qin Yu would be undergoing the Divine Tribulation and then ascending to the Divine Realm.And in these a hundred and eight years, there are still a lot of things Qin Yu must do. He simply did not have any time to comprehend the ‘Array Path.’ With a time of only a hundred and eight years, he cannot even finish reading the ‘Array Path’ at all.Inside this floating house radiates a red light that brings about a warming sensation. The source of the red light is wristband formed by the nine scarlet almost sparkling and translucent beads.Qin Yu stared at the wristband.Refining Flame Wristband!Qin Yu was absolutely certain. And at this moment, Uncle Fu walked in. He said. “Qin Yu, it is a bit difficult to refine and bind that Refining Flame Wristband. It is mostly determined by your body’s True Flame and soul’s level. Firstly, you are to drip a drop of blood on it. According to the set up my master had placed on this wristband when he made it, it should be very easy for you to drip a drop of blood to become its owner and then take it within your body.”Qin Yu nodded,He extended his finger. A drop of blood dripped down from his fingertip and landed on the Refining Flame Wristband. The Refining Flame Wristband immediately started to give off a sizzling sound. At the same time, a burst of white mist appeared.“It’s done.” Qin Yu was able to clearly sense a soul connection.With an intention, that Refining Flame Wristband was directly absorbed into Qin Yu’s body. Almost simultaneously, Qin Yu sat down on the ground in a cross-legged position. He had already started to refine and bind the Refining Flame Wristband.As Qin Yu does not have a lot of time before his ascension, he didn’t wish to spend a lot of time on refining this wristband. He wished to leave some time to spend with his family.“Truly a great effort.” Seeing Qin Yu starting the refinement and binding process right away, Uncle Fu started to smile and nod. “With your soul’s level and the fact that my master had lowered the refinement demand when he created this ‘Refining Flame Wristband,’ I estimate that you’ll be able to successfully refine and bind it within a couple thousand years.”Couple thousand years?Qin Yu would have to undergo his Divine Tribulation in a hundred and eight years. Unfortunately, the current Qin Yu was completely focused on refining the Refining Flame Wristband and didn’t hear what Uncle Fu said at all. Otherwise, he’d choke and die.“My master is truly amazing. Originally, the Innate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures would all require several hundred thousand years to refine. As for some of the more powerful Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, the amount of time it required to refine them was even more astonishing. If the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were to resist, then one would likely be unable to refine them regardless of how long one spent on refining them. Fortunately, the Refining Flame Wristband was personally created by my master. Only because of that did Qin Yu manage to attain a small advantage and would be able to refine it in merely several thousand years.” Gasped Uncle Fu in admiration.Evidently, Uncle Fu believed that refining and Grandmist Spiritual Treasure in several thousand years was extremely fast.After that, Uncle Fu sat to the side. With a flip of his hand, he took out a pot of tea. Unhurried, he started drinking the tea. As for Qin Yu, he continued to sit there cross-legged and wholeheartedly refine the ‘Refining Flame Wristband.’Time passed… year after year….Inside Qin Yu’s dantian’s space.That Refining Flame Wristband was floating within Qin Yu’s dantian’s space. Numerous black flames were unceasingly pouring into the Refining Flame Wristband. At the same time, Qin Yu was unceasingly pouring his soul force into it.“What’s going on? Why is the refinement of this Refining Flame Wristband so slow?” Qin Yu had already dripped his blood on it and became its master. He was able to tell that the Refining Flame Wristband was still very far away from being completely refined.According to what Uncle Fu said, the speed of the Refining Flame Wristband’s refinement was determined by his body’s True Flame and his soul’s level. Furthermore, after becoming its master, Qin Yu also knew that… if he wanted to increase the speed of the Refining Flame Wristband’s refinement, he could only do that via increasing his soul’s level or increasing the level of his body’s True Flame.“Like this, when would I be able to finish it?” Qin Yu grew anxious. “If I place this ‘Refining Flame Wristband’ directly into my ‘Stellar Space’ where my body’s True Flames are originated from, I reckon its refinement speed would be faster.”With an intention, the Refining Flame Wristband was directly sent into the ‘Black Hole.’ Following the Black Hole Channel, it reached the Stellar Space.The current Stellar Space was already extremely vast. Qin Yu’s Awareness was surveying the Stellar Space.That boundless cosmic space-like ‘flour paste space’ outside of the Stellar Space was the same as before. The thick flour paste was still flowing unceasingly. At the same time, traces of the thick flour paste energy were influxing into the Stellar Space.“There’s still a bit from reaching the Late Stage Origin Stage.” Qin Yu looked to that dark black colored sphere. That dark black colored sphere was flickering with traces of gold light. According to Qin Yu’s estimate, if he were to completely reach the Late Stage Origin Stage, then there would likely not be a single trace of gold light from that dark black colored sphere.The Stellar Space was unceasingly absorbing the ‘flour paste energy.’“It still has to absorb for a little bit longer.” Qin Yu sighed. His attention then shifted toward that Refining Flame Wristband.The Refining Flame Wristband was flying toward the origin of the ‘Black Divine Flame.’However, right at that moment…“What’s going on?” Qin Yu looked to a scene before him in shock. A trace of flour paste energy had actually drifted to the Refining Flame Wristband. The Refining Flame Wristband immediately started to tremble. It then started to absorb the flour paste energy with ‘great difficulty.’This trace of flour paste energy was extremely small. The core of Qin Yu’s Stellar Space, that dark golden sphere would absorb a huge volume of flour paste energy in an instant.However, the Refining Flame Wristband took an entire month’s time and was unable to even absorb a tenth of the flour paste energy that had landed on it.However, with merely absorbing a tenth of the trace of flour paste energy, Qin Yu was able to sense that…. the refinement of the Refining Flame Wristband had instantly increased a tenth!“Heavens!” Qin Yu was shocked.At the same time, he was capering madly with joy. A single month had already increased the refinement by a tenth. Adding on the two tenth that he had already refined… the entire Refining Flame Wristband would be refined in another seven months.However, in the coming days, Qin Yu discovered that… the speed at which the Refining Flame Wristband absorbs the flour paste energy grew slower and slower.Originally, it had absorbed one tenth of a trace of flour paste energy in a month. Later on, it took it two entire months to absorb a tenth of the same trace of flour paste energy.Ten entire years!After ten years, the Refining Flames Wristband had finally finished its refinement. And at this moment, that trace of flour paste energy, a small amount of it was still not absorbed. However, the Refining Flame Wristband was unable to absorb it anymore. It was as if the Refining Flame Wristband was already full.As for the remaining bit of flour paste energy, it followed the millions upon millions of other traces of flour paste energy into the core of the Stellar Space, the Origin. The Origin continued to absorb those flour paste energy with a frightening speed every instant.
Chapter 486 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 59 – ReturnTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: PhillipInside that floating stone house where several thousands of golden scrolls floated around it, Uncle Fu was seated at the side. He had a golden scroll in his hand. His eyes were slightly closed. That golden scroll in his hand was unceasingly radiating a golden light.As for Qin Yu who was sitting cross-legged on top of the praying mat, his eyes suddenly opened. As if he had sensed Qin Yu opening his eyes, Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu.“Qin Yu, you? Why aren’t you continuing with the refinement of the Refining Flame Wristband?” Asked Uncle Fu with a puzzled expression. “Qin Yu, it’s only been over a dozen years. It’s still very early. The Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are already very hard to refine. If you’re able to finish refining it within several thousand years, then you’re already doing very well.”Qin Yu smiled and looked to Uncle Fu. “Uncle Fu, you said something about several thousand years? I’m confused as to what you meant by that. I have already finished refining the Refining Flame Wristband.”Uncle Fu was shocked.“You said that you’ve succeeded in refining the Refining Flame Wristband?” Uncle Fu was filled with amazement.“That’s right.” Said Qin Yu with a smile. “Why? Could it be that you don’t believe me?” With an intention of Qin Yu’s mind, the illusions in the outside of the house started to change.The scene that was originally that of the cosmic outer space had turned into a scene with a little bridge, rivers and meadows. The originally floating house was now located on top of the meadows. As for the several thousand scrolls, they have been gathered together neatly to one corner of the house.Seeing this scene, Uncle Fu said with a shocked expression. “Qin Yu, you…. no, Master!” Uncle Fu bowed respectfully. “From today on, you’re the master of the Bewitching God Temple and also my master.”“Uncle Fu, there is no need. Just address me as Qin Yu.” Said Qin Yu nonchalantly.Uncle Fu firmly shook his head and said. “When the old master left, he had commanded me that once the successor managed to control the Bewitching God Temple, he shall become my master. I cannot rebel against the command of the old master.”Qin Yu understood it in his heart.This Uncle Fu was a puppet created by Chehou Yuan. Uncle Fu naturally would not dare to resist the orders of Chehou Yuan.“Master, please address me as ‘A’Fu.’ A’Fu is too ashamed and doesn’t dare to be addressed as Uncle Fu by master.” Said Uncle Fu respectfully. Although Uncle Fu was extremely happy when he was addressed as Uncle Fu by Qin Yu, but Chehou Yuan had also mentioned before that a puppet was only a servant.A smile instead appeared on Qin Yu’s face. “Uncle Fu, I am now your master, correct?”“Yes.” Said Uncle Fu respectfully.“Could it be that you want to argue with me about what I want to call you?” Qin Yu asked with a smile. “I can call you whatever I wish to call you. From today on, you are still the Bewitching God Temple’s housekeeper. And I…. am still going to address you as Uncle Fu.”Declared Qin Yu straightforwardly.“Master.” Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu. He was extremely moved.He was a created puppet. Although he possessed emotion, intelligence and could even smile and get angry like man, but he was still unable to train. Even the energy within his body was provided by the Divine Spiritual Crystal Essence.However, as he possessed emotions of humans, he naturally possessed a longing to be acknowledged by others.Qin Yu addressing him as ‘Uncle Fu,’ had brought him a speechless moving sensation.“Uncle Fu, you mentioned something about taking several thousand years to refine the Refining Flame Wristband, what do you mean by that?” Qin Yu was filled with confusion. “Didn’t I manage to successfully refine it in merely over a dozen years?”At this moment, Uncle Fu’s attitude was clearly different.Respectfully, he said. “Master, the Refining Flame Wristband left behind by the old master, because of the fact that it was personally refined and created by the old master and that the old master had also considered about his future successor, it was a lot easier to refine. With master’s current soul’s level as well as your True Flame’s level, it should require you several thousand years to succeed. For master to succeed in merely over a dozen years, even I am unable to understand how master was able to do it.”“Oh?” Qin Yu naturally recalled the scene when he was refining the Refining Flame Wristband.After Qin Yu dripped blood on the Refining Flame Wristband and became its master, he had instantly refined around ten percent of the Refining Flame Wristband. Later on, using his soul’s power as well as the Black Divine Flame, he managed to refine another ten percent after spending several years. Finally, he moved the Refining Flame Wristband into the Stellar Space.After it absorbed that ‘flour paste energy,’ the speed of the refinement started to increase rapidly. The first month was the fastest. Ten percent was instantly refined in a month. Later on, the speed became slower and slower. The later on, the slower it became. It ended up taking ten years to refine the Refining Flame Wristband in the Stellar Space and a total of more than a dozen years to successfully refine the Refining Flame Wristband.“Master, I had originally estimated that you’ll be able to immediately refine ten percent of the Refining Flame Wristband at the beginning. Afterwards, you’ll be able to refine another ten percent in about five year’s time. After that, another ten years to refine another ten percent. The speed then grows slower and slower. The final ten percent, I had estimated that it would take about two to three thousand years for you to refine it.” Said Uncle Fu respectfully.Qin Yu was listening to the pattern that Uncle Fu spoke of.The speed at which the Refining Flame Wristband absorbed the ‘flour paste energy’ was exactly like how Uncle Fu described. It gets slower and slower… at the same time, the speed of the refinement was also slower and slower. The final ten percent took close to five entire years.“Master, your speed of refinement was extremely fast. I have followed old master for all these years and yet have never heard of someone managing to refine a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure so fast like master did. Unless, unless an expert of the Exalted Celestial level were to help.” Said Uncle Fu with a low voice.Qin Yu slightly nodded.His refinement speed being fast have nothing to do with the help from Exalted Celestial level expert. Instead, it was because of the ‘flour paste energy’ that his Stellar Space absorbs.“This ‘Stellar Transformation,’ ever since it reached the ‘Black Hole Stage,’ and opened a channel to another space, the evolution of the ‘Stellar Transformation’ martial technique had entered into a different evolutionary path.”Qin Yu knew that the Stellar Space was located in an extremely vast and boundless ‘flour paste space.’ What exactly was this ‘flour paste space?’ Why was it that the core of the Stellar Space, the ‘Origin,’ only absorbs the ‘flour paste energy’ in order to evolve?“The current ‘Stellar Transformation,’ had reached the Middle Stage Origin Stage. It is not far away from reaching the Late Stage Origin Stage. However, what would be the next stage after the ninth stage, the Origin Stage?”Qin Yu was very certain in his heart that if the ‘Stellar Transformation’ martial technique were to continue its development like this, and if each of the step in the development were to be a correct step, then it would likely become extremely powerful.However, mishaps could also occur in matters like creating your own martial technique. If a mistake were to be made, it would be possible to cause the ‘Stellar Transformation,’ to walk down a different branch. While the different branch might also give birth to a good accomplishment in the future, it would not reach an extremely powerful level.“There are no benefits to over thinking such matters. Perhaps when the moment comes, a moment of enlightenment would allow me to know what to do.”Qin Yu stopped pondering about the future of the ‘Stellar Transformation.’“Uncle Fu, I reckon it’ll also take a long period of time to refine the other three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?” Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu.Uncle Fu nodded and said. “Yes, that’s right. Master, the speed of the refinement of the other three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures ought to be slower than the Refining Flame Wristband’s. According to my estimates, master would likely have to spend…. eh, even I do not know how long it would take master to refine them.”At the current moment, Uncle Fu was also not daring to make assertions of the master that stood before him. The numerous years of experience that he had gathered beside Chehou Yuan had turned useless before Qin Yu.Qin Yu lightly smiled. “Well then, let’s leave here first then.”“Yes, master.” Said Uncle Fu respectfully.The Bewitching God Temple was floating within the outer space. Qin Yu and Uncle Fu were outside of the Bewitching God Temple.“Absorb!”Qin Yu extended his right hand. On his arm was the Refining Flame Wristband. The Refining Flame Wristband started to shine a faint red light. The Bewitching God Temple immediately decreased in size rapidly. It then turned into a ray of light and entered into the Refining Flame Wristband.“Uncle Fu, let’s go!” Said Qin Yu, he was about to rush into the dense and foggy Divine Illusion Barrier before him.“Master, you are now the master of the Bewitching God Temple. As for those trifling matters, you can just let me resolve them.” Said Uncle Fu respectfully. He then pointed to the space not far to the east of the two.A ring radiating a three colored light suddenly appeared there.“This is?” Although Qin Yu had become the master of the Bewitching God Temple, he did not know much about Uncle Fu.“Master, this is a Conveying Array. In all these years, I have been in the Bewitching God Temple without anything to do. Thus, I had created a Conveying Array here. Another one was created outside of the Cosmic Golden Fragmentary Stream. They were created so that in the future when I leave from here with the new master, we would not have to go through the troubles of going back and forth through the Divine Illusion Barrier.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile.Qin Yu lightly nodded.He also didn’t feel like rushing through that Divine Illusion Barrier. Qin Yu directly followed Uncle Fu and entered into the Conveying Array. Following a flickering of lights, Qin Yu and Uncle Fu disappeared from the Conveying Array.Qin Yu and Uncle Fu continued on with their journey. Uncle Fu’s flying speed was extremely fast. However, he was unable to use Teleportation or Greater Teleportation because he did not possess a soul.Thus, Qin Yu could only bring Uncle Fu along with him as he used Greater Teleportation.On the journey, Qin Yu and Uncle Fu chatted with each other. Through that, Qin Yu managed to get to know a lot of Uncle Fu’s secrets.Uncle Fu was extremely powerful. Although he was unable to use Teleportation or Greater Teleportation, he was able to travel tens of thousands of miles in a blink of an eye. His speed was ten to a hundred times faster than Qin Yu.Because Uncle Fu’s body’s toughness had already reached the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact level, even High Level Heavenly Deities’ bodies were unable to match his in toughness. Furthermore, a lot of formation arrays and barriers were placed within his body to increase his speed. One could easily imagine how fast Uncle Fu was.At the same time… Uncle Fu was a great expert in the arts of formation arrays and barriers!Having followed Chehou Yuan for all those years, Uncle Fu had been researching the ‘Array Path,’ the entire time. The nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path,’ it was likely that Uncle Fu would be able to remember them word for word with his eyes closed.It was so much so, that with the comprehension that Uncle Fu had toward the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path,’ Uncle Fu had actually written a set of ‘Array Path’s Comprehensions.’ He had written a total of over ten thousand scrolls. Merely, those Golden Scrolls were placed within Uncle Fu’s personal Storage Divine Artifact.Furthermore, because Uncle Fu did not possess a soul, he was unable to comprehend out a stage. This caused… Uncle Fu to struggle in the first level of the ‘Array Path’ the entire time.Back then, when Chehou Yuan decided to relearn the ‘Array Path,’ he spent a billion years researching the first level.However, what about Uncle Fu? He had followed Chehou Yuan for all these years and had been researching the first level of the Array Path the entire time. The amount of time he spent on it was so long that it was unknown how many billions of years it had been.The current Qin Yu knew that Uncle Fu was a master in the arts of formation arrays and barriers. However, the actual strength of Uncle Fu’s formation arrays and barriers, he had still yet to know about them.Without truly researching the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path,’ it was impossible for Qin Yu to know of Uncle Fu’s true strength in the field of formation arrays and barriers.
Chapter 487 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 60 – The Bewitching God Temple’s House PetsTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip, Robin and KulopsNine Amplifications Sect. In an elegant and isolated palace. This palace was a residence that only the Mystic Emperor could live in.Ever since the Qin Clan moved to the Blazing Sun Galaxy’s Virtue Residence Star, the Mystic Emperor Xuan Xi spent the majority of her time living in the Nine Amplifications Sect. This had caused the Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master to become extremely cautious and solemn every single day.The Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master walked into the palace respectfully.“Your Majesty, Qin Yu has returned.” Said the Nine Amplification Sect’s Sect Master respectfully as he bowed. He didn’t dare to raise his head to look at Xuan Xi at all.Xuan Xi wore a moon-white colored gown. Her long hair trailed over her shoulders all the way down to her buttocks.“He’s finally returned after leaving for over a dozen years?” Xuan Xi had a shallow smile on her face. “Good, you can return.”“Yes, Your Majesty.” The Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master withdrew while bowing.Only after he left the palace did the Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master heave a sigh of relief. He thought to himself. “Back then, when Emperor Yu died, not only did Her Majesty not go and avenge him, she instead treated the Qin Clan so well. And now, she is so concerned about the movement of the Qin Clan. What exactly is she planning?”Even the trusted aide of the Mystic Emperor, the Nine Amplifications Sect’s Sect Master, does not know what the Mystic Emperor is planning to do.The Mystic Emperor had made a lot of people become part of the Qin Clan. She even had one of her disciples become the wife of Feng Yuzi. Not long ago, another female subordinate of hers became the wife of the Qin Clan’s genius, Qin Nan. And Qin Nan was Qin Feng’s grandson.And because of that, the Mystic Emperor managed to obtain a lot of the secret information about the Qin Clan. For example, Qin Yu had said that he’d be likely going to undergo the Divine Tribulation in several hundred years. (The Qin Yu from back then didn’t know when he was going to undergo the Divine Tribulation. He merely managed to guess the timing based on the Cyan Emperor’s Divine Tribulation.)Inside the palace.The Mystic Emperor was sitting in front of the dressing table. Her gaze was misty.“Brother Feng Yu, did you know? That Qin Yu was said to be going to undergo his Divine Tribulation in several hundred years… your vengeance, I do not have to wait too long anymore. In several hundred years, I’ll be able to attain your revenge.”The Mystic Emperor’s voice was extremely soft and gentle. “Brother Feng Yu, after all these years, I have also become the Immortal Realm’s Mystic Emperor. However, my happiest days were still the time when you were Emperor Yu and I, Mystic Emperor, and fighting against each other. Unfortunately, you’ve died….”The Mystic Emperor was someone with ambition and the desire for power. She loved being high above, controlling others, telling others what to do.“Divine Realm, it is an even vaster battlefield. If you want to become a big shot there, it is much more difficult than becoming a big shot in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. And, before I ascend to the Divine Realm, I will definitely avenge you.”The Mystic Emperor stood up. She walked to the palace’s gate. She raised her head up and looked to the boundless space.“Qin Yu, it was your subordinate that killed Brother Feng Yu. This time around, I must let you know what being too late for regrets means, what it means to die deranged.” A ruthless light shined through the Xuan Xi’s eyes. “Qin Yu, I shall let you despair and die in a state of absolute despair!”And at this moment, the temperature in the surrounding of the palace started to suddenly and violently drop.Inside the Qin Palace. Within a courtyard manor. Only Qin Yu, Qin De and Qin Feng were present.Originally, Qin Yu had said that he’d be leaving for only several years. However, he had instead been gone for over a dozen years. Qin Yu also didn’t expect for the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures to be so hard to refine. It was also only through the help of his Stellar Space’s flour paste energy that he managed to only spend a bit over a dozen years refining it.The father and sons were chatting.“What? You only have around ninety years before your Divine Tribulation comes?” Qin De and Qin Feng heard Qin Yu’s words and was unable to refrain their shock. The date of Qin Yu’s Divine Tribulation was truly too soon.Qin Yu nodded and said. “That’s right. There is nothing I can do about my Divine Tribulation coming so soon.”“Royal Father, big brother, it will be very difficult for the two of you to become level nine Immortal Emperors and then successfully pass the Divine Tribulation. Even if you manage to succeed, it would still take a very very long time.” Qin Yu felt a bit pained in his heart.Just by looking at how many Emperor level experts there were in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, one could tell how hard it was to become a level nine Immortal Emperor.In the entire Qin Clan, other than Qin Yu, it was extremely hard for them to obtain another level nine Immortal Emperor.“Yu’er, that is our blessing.” Qin De patted Qin Yu’s shoulder and said in a comforting tone. “Do not feel sad for us. The Divine Realm is definitely even more dangerous than the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. At the very least, in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, we are still able to live our lives peacefully without any dangers.”Qin Feng said vigorously. “Qin Yu, in the boundless Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, the population number is in the billions. Perhaps, for you, the arena is too small. However, for us, it is already large enough.”Qin Yu quickly left behind his feeling of pain.To have his family members live in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, that too is a sort of blessing and happiness.Divine Realm… Qin Yu was unable to even guarantee his own safety there, how would he be able to safeguard his family?However, once he ascends… how many years later would he be able to meet his family again?A hundred thousand years? A million years? A hundred million years?Even Qin Yu himself had no certainty on the amount of time it’ll take.Qin Yu clenched his fists. His brows started to crease. With a flip of his hand, he took out a scroll-like item. “Royal Father, big brother, this item is called the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas.”Qin De and Qin Feng have heard about the renowned Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas before. However, they were confused as to why Qin Yu took it out.With an intention of Qin Yu’s mind, Ye Qu, Wu Lan and Ao Wuxu appeared in the courtyard manor.“Qin Yu, you…” The three of them, including the cold and detached Ao Wuxu all looked to Qin Yu with an astonished expression.Qin Yu lightly smiled and said. “Don’t doubt it. That’s right, I have already removed the soul bindings on you three. From today on, all three of you shall have your liberty back. Wherever you want to go, no one will try and stop you.”Ye Qu, Wu Lan and Ao Wuxu all stared at Qin Yu.“Royal Father, you shall take charge of the Qingyu Immortal Mansion. As for that Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, big brother shall be in charge of that. Big brother, bind the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. From today on, you shall be the new master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. All of the Spiritual Beasts within it shall be under your control.” Qin Yu handed over the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas to his big brother.Qin Feng looked to the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas before him. He then looked to Qin Yu. He was momentarily stunned.Qin De was instead the first one to wake back up. He hurriedly said. “Yu’er, this Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas is a precious item. Why is it that you don’t want it?”“I don’t need it anymore. The Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas only possesses three different spaces for Spiritual Beasts. The highest among them is merely Emperor level. It would amount to no use in the Divine Realm. However, in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, it is extremely useful.” Explained Qin Yu.Qin Yu had also originally considered the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas to be important. However, he later came to find out from Uncle Fu that… the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, in the Divine Realm, was merely a type of amusement Divine Artifact. Otherwise, Immortal Emperor Ni Yang from back then would also not be able to obtain it so easily.The Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas had a total of three layers of spaces. It was able to absorb three different levels of Demon Beasts. However, the strongest Demon Beast that it could place within it was merely a level nine Demon Emperor.In the Divine Realm, a level nine Demon Emperor would be merely a house pet’s level.This Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, it was merely a cage to house pets and animals. Of course, those Spiritual Beasts that are captured, as long as their master do not remove the soul binding, even if they reach the Heavenly Deity stage, they would still be controlled.However, to imprison a Demon Emperor level Demon Beast and then cultivate it to the Heavenly Deity level, so that one could use it later on, was much harder than hiring ten Heavenly Deities.Thus, the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas was something that was merely relatively powerful in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.“Qin Yu, I do not have much interest for the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Allow me to return to the Jiang Lan’s Realm to continue training. When you reach the Divine Realm, you can just casually bring me with you into the Divine Realm.” Said Wu Lan with a smile.Ever since seeing the ‘Jiang Lan’s Realm,’ Wu Lan has never thought of not going back to the Divine Realm. That was because Wu Lan knew how important it was to possess a powerful backer in the Divine Realm.“I also do not have any interest for the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.” Ye Qu’s loud voice sounded. Ao Wuxu looked at Qin Yu coldly. His intention was obvious — he was also not interested toward the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.Qin Yu instead shook his head and said. “Ye Qu, Ao Wuxu, I will be undergoing my Divine Tribulation in ninety years. Although the two of you are level nine Demon Emperors, your Divine Tribulation should be much later than mine.”Both Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu were stunned.Usually, when reaching level nine Demon Emperor, one would require several tens of thousand or more years till the Divine Tribulation comes.“So soon?” Said Ao Wuxu with a frown.“That’s right, it’s very short. That’s why the two of you cannot ascend to the Divine Realm together with me. If the two of you think that the outside world was boring, then you can for the time being live in the Qin Palace. If you’re bored, you can also accompany Hei Tong, Guo Fan and them.” Said Qin Yu with a smile.Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu nodded. No matter how quickly they trained, it would still be impossible for them to undergo the Divine Tribulation before Qin Yu.Qin Yu and his two brothers taking on the Divine Tribulation together was already a bit dangerous. If Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu also wanted to take on the Divine Tribulation with Qin Yu and his brothers, then, with five people undergoing the Divine Tribulation at the same time, even Qin Yu would not have a single trace of certainty that they’ll succeed. Therefore, Ao Wuxu and Ye Qu did not suggest that.“Big brother, Royal Father, with the Qingyu Immortal Mansion and the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas at your hands, my mind is now at ease.” Qin Yu smiled as he looked to his Royal Father and big brother.Qin De and Qin Feng glanced at each other. The two of them were both emotionally moved.“Little Yu, thank you.” Said Qin Feng. Seeing the Qin Yu before him, he recalled the seven or eight year old little child from back then. That little child that soaked in the hot spring together with him. ‘Is this my third brother?’ Sometimes when Qin Feng thought about this, he felt as if he were dreaming.Qin Yu waved his sleeve.A large number of ‘people’ appeared in the courtyard. These ‘people’ all possessed very strange appearances. Some of them, although they possessed the form of humans, instead had a large tail. Some of them looked like a hairy ball. However, the vast majority of them still had the appearance of people.“Your Lordship.” Said the eighty plus people simultaneously as they bowed.These people were extremely grateful toward Qin Yu. That was because Qin Yu freed them from the Bewitching God Temple. That’s right, they are the eighty plus house pets of the Bewitching God Temple.Qin Yu nodded. “The vast majority of you are all Emperor level. Three of you are King level. You all came from different cosmic spaces. And from today on, I wish that you all promise me one thing.”“Please speak, Your Lordship.” Said those eighty plus people simultaneously.“Before you ascend to the Divine Realm, you shall all be considered Consecrated of my Qin Clan. You are to protect my Qin Clan. However, because I am unknown about your temperaments, I will have you all directly enter into the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. I will make my big brother swear to release your soul bindings after you pass your Divine Tribulations.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.As Qin Yu was speaking, he was emitting a mighty aura.No matter what, Qin Yu did not wished to gamble with his clan’s lifeline. Thus, having these eighty plus people enter into the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas was the safest method.These eighty plus people were unable to help from feeling a bit hesitant. They looked at Qin Feng.“I, Qin Feng, swear that all the Spiritual Beasts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, once any of them manage to pass the Divine Tribulation, will immediately have their soul bindings removed. If I were to go against this oath of mine, then I shall be struck by the Divine Lightnings till my soul scatters.” Said Qin Feng straightforwardly.Hearing Qin Feng’s oath, those eighty plus people immediately loosened up. Since there was nothing for them to do before they ascend to the Divine Realm anyways, so what if they needed to protect the Qin Clan? After all, it was Qin Yu who gave them back their freedom.Once they recalled the cages that they were in, where they were unable to leave that cage at all, they started to feel a burst of uneasiness.Having finished all the arrangements, Qin Yu felt a lot more at ease.These eighty plus people, each and every one of them were extremely special in the cosmic space that they came from. Otherwise, they would not have been taken as pets by Chehou Yuan. These eighty plus people, each and every one of them possessed miraculous abilities. Some of them were even more abnormal and powerful than Super Divine Beasts.For example Wu Lan. Back then, Wu Lan was also one of them.Just like this, Qin Yu ended up passing his tranquil days in the Qin Palace. Because of the fact that there weren’t many things for him to take care of in the Dark Star Realm, Qin Yu merely sent a transmission to them saying that he would have to train. Thus, no one came to bother him.Days like this lasted for fifty entire years. This time around, the Qin Clan held a feast. Of course, they also invited some people from the outside. The Qin Clan was a location that only the people of the Qin Clan were allowed to enter. Usually, when they held banquets, it would be held on a palace on the waist of the mountain.At this moment, a large number of people were gathered in this palace. An overwhelming majority of the Qin clansmen were present. Furthermore, even the Mystic Emperor had come. That was because the Mystic Emperor was Feng Yuzi’s wife’s master.The main hall was extremely lively. A large number of people were gathered here. Qin Yu, Qin Feng, Hei Yu and his family, Qin De, Feng Yuzi and the rest of the people were all present. Before the banquet even started, the large number of people gathered here had already started chatting with each other.“Little Yu.” Feng Yuzi and a red clothed beautiful woman walked in.“Uncle Feng, Aunt Feng.” Qin Yu lightly smiled.Regarding Feng Yuzi, Qin Yu had a slight headache. That was because he suspected that the Mystic Emperor had some sort of plot. Thus, Qin Yu was suspicious of the Mystic Emperor’s disciple, Uncle Feng’s wife, Lian Yu.“Brother Qin Yu, I’ve heard that you’ll be undergoing your Divine Tribulation in about forty years?” A gentle and soft voice sounded. With a smile on her face, the Mystic Emperor Xuan Xi walked over.Seeing Xuan Xi, Qin Yu was slightly startled.There are not many people in the Qin Clan that knew that he would be ascending in about forty years. How did this Mystic Emperor know about it? Could it be from… Uncle Feng’s wife?Qin Yu immediately smiled and nodded. “Xuan Xi, do you by any chance know when your Divine Tribulation would come?”“Oh, mine’s still going to take a while.” Said Xuan Xi while smiling.“Big brother.” Hou Fei’s voice sounded from behind. Qin Yu smiled. “Xuan Xi, go and chat with the others first. I must take my leave.” Qin Yu turned around and immediately proceeded toward Hou Fei.Seeing Qin Yu’s back view, Xuan Xi had a slight smile on her face. She was thinking. ‘Forty years, you are still able to live for forty more years. Your Qin Clan will only be able to survive for another forty years.”
Chapter 488 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 61 – Undergoing the Divine Tribulation TogetherTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinTime flows. In a blink of an eye, forty years had passed.On a desolate planet not far away from the Virtue Residence Star. The planet was blazing hot. Even the ground had split open from the heat. However, at this moment, over a hundred people were gathered on this planet.There was a smile on the face of each and every one gathered here. They were chatting with one another with excitement. The blazing hot temperature did not affect them in the slightest.“Royal Father, this time, Little Yu is going to undergo the Divine Tribulation together with Hou Fei and Hei Yu. Isn’t this reckless?” Qin Feng was currently together with Qin De. Even now, Qin Feng still felt a bit nervous about Qin Yu’s Divine Tribulation.Qin De lightly smiled and said. “I am quite confident that Yu’er would not recklessly attempt something beyond his ability, for him to dare do such a thing, he must definitely possess absolute confidence.”“Qin De, you’ve given birth to a very good son.” A clear voice sounded from the side. Xuan Xi who wore a jade green colored gauze jacket walked in.“Eh?” Qin De and Qin Feng were both puzzled. Over all these years, they had met the Mystic Emperor no less than a hundred times. In all those occasions, she would usually wear pink, purple or white. It was the first time they had ever seen her wear a jade green colored gauze jacket.Qin De smiled and asked. “Your Majesty Mystic Emperor, this outfit of yours today, we have never seen you wear it before.”Wearing a jade green colored jacket yet still possessing the posture of a woman.“I’ve worn this before. Merely, it’s been a very long time since I last wore them. Qin De, Brother Qin Yu actually dares to take on the Divine Tribulation with two other people at the same time, this is something that has never happened before in the history of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.” Said Xuan Xi with a smile.Qin De shook his head and said with a sigh. “Yu’er insisted on doing that. Even my persuasion was useless.”“Brother Qin, you don’t have to worry for Little Yu.” Feng Yuzi and his wife Lian Yu also walked in together.Xuan Xi suddenly frowned as she glanced at the eighty plus people in the distance. She grew puzzled. “Who exactly are those eighty plus people? How is it possible for there to be over eighty Emperor level experts? Furthermore, I am practically unable to recognize their true forms at all!”Those eighty plus people were precisely the eighty plus Demon Beasts that originated from all different cosmic spaces and were saved by Qin Yu before.Actually, ever since these eighty plus people willingly became Spiritual Beasts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas, they had never once entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. That was because it was too hard to open the third layer of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas. Thus, they remained out here, living with the Qin Clan.It was the same principle as how Immortal Emperor Ni Yang managed to have Ye Qu and Wu Lan be outside of the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas after his death.“Brother Qin, these eighty plus people, it seems that I have never met them before?” Asked Xuan Xi in confusion.Qin Feng instead replied. “Your Majesty Xuan Xi, they are the Consecrated Guardians of our Qin Clan. They usually live within the Qin Palace. It is also extremely normal for Your Majesty Xuan Xi to not have seen them before.”The Qin Palace, previously known as the Qingyu Immortal Mansion, was indeed a place that the Mystic Emperor had never once been to.“So that’s how it is.” Xuan Xi smiled as she nodded. However, she was thinking in her heart: “Who would’ve thought that the Qin Clan actually possessed this group of experts. Just by comparing the number of Emperor level experts that they have, they actually are on par with me.”“The first step of my plan for revenge was killing Qin De to create chaos in Qin Yu’s mindset so that he would be invaded by Heart’s Devil and shattered into pieces by the Divine Lighting during the Third Great Divine Tribulation. Although these eighty plus Consecrated possess decent strength, if I were to approach Qin De, these people would still be too weak to obstruct me.”Xuan Xi already had a plan for her revenge.Her plan for revenge against Qin Yu was composed of two steps.Back then, when Xuan Xi first discovered the Qin clan, Xuan Xi had originally wanted to directly kill the entire Qin clan. However, she later realized that if she were to kill the entire Qin clan, she’d only anger Qin Yu greatly and make him come to kill her to vent his anger. This would then allow him to not longer have to worry about his relatives, restricting him from his bindings. His cultivation speed would only become even faster. He might even be able to attain even greater accomplishments.The target of her vengeance was Qin Yu. Xuan Xi did not want Qin Yu to attain even greater accomplishments.Therefore, she came up with this plan.“Your strength is indeed powerful. Actually, it is frighteningly powerful!” Xuan Xi stared at Qin Yu who was currently silently training at afar. Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu were all sitting in a cross-legged position, waiting for the arrival of the Divine Tribulation.“However, Qin Yu, you are too arrogant. With three people undergoing the Divine Tribulation together, the Divine Tribulation’s power won’t just triple. Instead, it’ll be increased eight to nine fold, or even more! I do not believe that once you become inflicted with the Heart’s Devil, you’ll still be able to defend against the Third Great Divine Tribulation with over ten times the original power!”Xuan Xi’s heart was boiling with hatred. However, she still displayed a tranquil expression on her face.If the Heart’s Devil manages to successfully infiltrate one’s body, it’d be an extremely frightening thing. If Qin Yu were to be infiltrated by the Heart’s Devil, then without any awareness left, he might still be able to keep his life with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. However, if Hou Fei and Hei Yu were to lose Qin Yu’s assistance, then it’d be extremely dangerous and hard for them to be able to remain alive.“To have you witness the death of your Royal Father at the time of your Divine Tribulation, I do not believe that your state of mind will not be shaken up!” Xuan Xi smiled grimly. “Once your state of mind is shaken, the Heart’s Devil will enter your body and your death will be guaranteed.”This was what Xuan Xi had determined to be the only possible plan that might be able to succeed.She was unable to think of a better plan.“It’s him!” Xuan Xi’s pupils suddenly shrunk back. She noticed a person.Xuan Xi was forever unable to forget about the man who had killed her husband, Emperor Yu, with a single fist strike. And at this moment, that dark and thin man was with two other men. Xuan Xi was able to sense extremely powerful auras radiating from these three people.“Three level nine Demon Emperors!” Xuan Xi’s heart was suddenly jolted.Standing at a location not far from Xuan Xi was Wu Lan, Ye Qu and Ao Wuming. The three of them had also came to watch Qin Yu’s Divine Tribulation. Not long ago, Wu Lan had finally become a level nine Demon Emperor after training in the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.“Humph, three level nine Demon Emperors are still unable to affect my plan. Even if they were closer to Qin De, Ii reckon that when I attack to kill him, they will still not be able to stop me in time!”Xuan Xi was extremely confident.She possessed a Divine Armor. Furthermore, killing Qin De required only a single strike of hers! If she were to stand beside Qin De and suddenly attack him, then even if Qin Yu weren’t about to undergo his Divine Tribulation, he would likely still not be able to react in time. It was practically impossible for him to be able to instantly appear between them and block her attack.“Master, the Divine Tribulation is about to descend. Come over and watch with us.” The beautiful married woman Lian Yu said respectfully.Xuan Xi lightly smiled and said. “Sure.” As she said that, she walked over to Qin De.At this moment, the people who came to watch Qin Yu’s Divine Tribulation were separated into three major groups.The first group of people were the frontmost ones. They consisted of Qin De, Qin Feng, Feng Yuzi and his wife, Qin Feng’s daughter, Qin Feng’s grandson Qin Nan… and other Qin clansmen of relatively high position. Of course, this also included Xuan Xi who stood beside Qin De and Feng Yuzi.The second group was the rest of the Qin clansmen. They were mostly from the younger generations. This group of people stood behind Qin De and them.The third group was the eighty plus Consecrated. Ye Qu, Wu Lan and Ao Wuxu were also located at the edge of the location where this group of people was at.Xuan Xi and Qin De were standing beside each other. The two of them were even chatting and laughing.“Qin De, there is no need for you to worry about Brother Qin Yu. I believe that he will definitely be able to successfully pass the Divine Tribulation.” Said Xuan Xi to Qin De with a smile on her face. Qin De slightly nodded and said. “Thank you Your Majesty Mystic Emperor for your kind words.”And at this moment…“Rumble~~~” A seemingly unlimited number of black clouds started to roll about. The sky above the entire uninhabited planet was covered with a layer of unceasingly thundering and surging black clouds. Lightning was also rolling about within the black clouds.“Zzk zzk~~~”Qin Yu and his brothers were sitting there in a cross legged position, suddenly, the space within a circumference of ten meters around them had become completely distorted.“Big brother, it’s about to begin.” Hou Fei was the first to open his eyes.Hei Yu also opened his eyes and raised his head and looked towards the sky. Qin Yu was the last one to open his eyes. With a slight smile on his face, Qin Yu looked at the raging black clouds that covered the sky. “For the three of us to undergo the Divine Tribulation together, It shall be interesting to see exactly how powerful this Divine Tribulation will be.”Almost simultaneously, the three brothers stood up. Like steel rods, they stood straightly. The gowns that they wore were fluttering with the wind.“Boom!” Following a lightning strike, immediately, tens of millions of electric snakes started to simultaneously bombard the distorted region of a ten mile circumference. Qin Yu and his brothers were faced with a multifarious number of lightning bolts. However, they were still standing with their hands behind their back. They were still looking to the sky. They did not seem to care for the lightning bolts in the slightest.At the current moment, the genius of the Qin Clan, Qin Feng’s grandson Qin Nan, was unable to take his eyes off the scene unfolding before him. His mouth was slightly opened. Softly, he was gasping.The figures of Qin Yu and his brothers were like those of gods in his heart.“There will definitely be a day that I will become like them!” Thought Qin Nan.Not only Qin Nan, the rest of the Qin Clan, including even those Consecrated, upon seeing the scene before them and the bombardment of the electric snakes as far as the eye can see, covering the entire sky, could not feel anything but shock from this scene.“For there to be tens of millions of electric snakes surging before the Divine Tribulation even descends, this is something unprecedented.” Said Xuan Xi with a seemingly concerned tone. “The Divine Tribulation this time is definitely going to be extremely powerful.”Qin De, Qin Feng and the rest of the people around her had also started to worry.Xuan Xi’s Immortal Awareness was able to clearly see the worried expression on Qin De, Qin Feng, Feng Yuzi and the rest. She started laughing in her heart. “Oh Qin Yu, merely by looking at the tens of millions of electric snakes before the descension of the Divine Tribulation, one can tell the power of this Divine Tribulation. Originally, I didn’t have absolute certainty as to whether the plan would work. However, it would seem now that… even the heavens are helping me. No one asked you to have three people undergoing the Divine Tribulation together. To create sin for yourself, you’ll just end up dying!”Among the boundless number of rolling black clouds, a drop of blood seemed to suddenly appear from within it. The amount of blood started to gather. A crimson colored enormous blood cloud appeared from within the black clouds. That blood cloud was at the very least ten thousand miles in circumference.“Huff, huff…”Heavy breathing started to be heard. Those Qin clansmen who were standing far away watching the Divine Tribulation, merely because of the oppressive might of the Tribulation Clouds, started to feel their souls being constrained.Following a flickering of lights, the Consecrated of the Qin clan, Wu Lan as well as the Mystic Emperor and the rest all moved to set up an immense barrier protecting the surroundings of everyone.“An unprecedented Divine Tribulation.” Xuan Xi’s eyes shined.Like a sea of blood, the ten thousand mile blood cloud was spinning. Within the blood cloud, a millstone of about ten mile circumference slowly started to appear. Dark blue lightning bolts were flowing in the middle of the millstone.“Eighty one lightning bolts!” Qin Yu who had his head raised up looking at the sky slightly frowned.“Xiao Hei, Fei Fei, even during the Cyan Emperor and the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan’s First Great Divine Tribulation, there were merely nine dark blue colored lightning bolts. However, the First Great Divine Tribulation of us three instead has eighty one. This amount of power was not only nine times larger, for the quality to become nine times of what it was, and after being amplified in power by the ancient array, its might would be over a dozen times stronger, or even stronger than that.” Qin Yu’s expression had turned somewhat serious.It would appear that he had still been a bit careless. The amount of power increase when undergoing the Divine Tribulation with three people together was truly too frightening.“Big brother, leave the First Great Divine Tribulation to me.” Laughed Hou Fei with a gaga noise. “I just recently managed to master the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike, I’ll use this to try it out.”Qin Yu slightly frowned. “Fei Fei, this First Great Divine Tribulation’s ancient array is composed of eighty one dark blue colored lighting bolts and possesses an extremely powerful amount of power. Even if you manage to block it, you’d likely also sustain injuries.”“I’ll take it on together with Monkey.” Said Hou Fei who was clothed completely in white. His voice was still cold like before. “As Monkey will be using the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike, I shall be using the Heaven Startling Single Spear Strike. That should be enough to block the lightning bolts.”Qin Yu nodded.“Rumble~~~~”The ancient formation array millstone, created by the eighty one dark blue colored lightning bolts, slowly descended from the sky. That ten mile circumference millstone just happened to be the same size as the region that Qin Yu and his brothers were undergoing the Divine Tribulation at.As the millstone started to slowly descend, the Divine Tribulation’s region also started to vibrate.“Woosh!” “Woosh!”Hou Fei and Hei Yu, like flying arrows, both rushed into the sky and shot towards that ancient formation array millstone.The bystanders, the Qin clansmen, the Mystic Emperor and those eighty plus Consecrated were all carefully watching the scene before them. Suddenly, an enormous stick silhouette and a soaring spear silhouette appeared.“Bang!” “Bang!”These two enormous noises sounded following the appearance of the enormous stick silhouette and soaring spear silhouette.And at the same time…The enormous spear and stick silhouette pierced through that ancient formation array millstone. That millstone with a circumference of ten miles started to collapse and fall apart. The eighty one dark blue colored lightning bolts were released from their binding and started flying in all directions.Without the amplification from the ancient formation array, the mere dark blue colored lightning bolts were unable to harm Qin Yu and his brothers.“Big brother.” With a woosh, Hou Fei and Hei Yu had appeared beside Qin Yu.Qin Yu smiled as he nodded. “Not bad.”Hou Fei raised his head and looked to the blood cloud of ten thousand miles circumference. “However, that ancient formation array millstone from earlier was truly huge and powerful. Even with Mixed Hair Bird and I joining hands, I was still able to sense that frightening quaking energy.”“I’ll take on the Second Great Divine Tribulation.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.Hou Fei and Hei Yu did not say anything. It was because they knew of Qin Yu’s astonishing strength. The Second Great Divine Tribulation was the ‘Divine Flame Tribulation.’ Against the Divine Flame Tribulation, Qin Yu actually held absolute certainty.That was because Qin Yu possessed the Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, Refining Flame Wristband. Using the Refining Flame Wristband, he was able to easily absorb the Divine Flames. However, Qin Yu knew that some of the experts in the Divine Realm were capable of checking his Divine Tribulation in the Divine Realm. Thus, it was better for him to not use the Refining Flame Wristband.It’s enough for him to just use the Grandmist Spiritual Treasure ‘Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.’“Zzk zzk~~” The ten thousand miles circumference blood cloud separated into an inner and outer section. The two sections started to rotate in reverse directions. Traces of black flames appeared within the intersections of the two sections. The amount of Black Divine Flames birthed by the enormous blood cloud was extremely astonishing.The Black Divine Flames gathered together and formed a…Black fireball!That’s right, it was a black fireball. This black fireball was around a thousand meters in diameter. At this moment, the entire black fireball came smashing downward with a lightning like speed. As for Qin Yu, he merely had his head raised. A smile was on his face.
Chapter 489 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 62 – The Final MoveTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinWith a diameter of a thousand meters, the enormous black fireball was tyrannically smashing downwards. When it arrived at Qin Yu and his brothers’ heads’ height, it appeared to have covered the entire world. The sound of a shockwave was heard.“Zzzk zzk~~~” This Black Divine Flame fireball of a thousand meters diameter had actually covered Qin Yu and his brothers completely. At the same time, it was burning unceasingly.Had only one person been undergoing the Divine Tribulation by himself, then the Divine Flames would not have been so extreme and would only burn for a short period of time before dissipating. However, this gigantic Black Divine Flame fireball was continuously burning in unbroken succession.Purgatory!At this moment, the Divine Tribulation region was like a purgatory. The Black Divine Flames were frantically burning. However, regardless of how frantically the Black Divine Flames were burning, Qin Yu and his brothers were not harmed in the slightest.Hou Fei and Hei Yu were standing behind Qin Yu. As for Qin Yu, he had his arms spread wide open.A golden membrane of light had covered an area of roughly three meters, with Qin Yu as the center. Like a semicircle, that membrane of light continued to protect Qin Yu and his brothers. Regardless of how hard the Black Flames burned, they were unable to enter the golden membrane of light in the slightest.Seeing Qin Yu with his arms spread open maintaining the membrane of light, everyone present felt a burst of oppressiveness.“So powerful.” Xuan Xi’s expression changed. “Qin Yu, you’re far stronger than I had imagined.”During every single Divine Tribulation in the past, the Second Great Divine Tribulation’s Divine Flames would usually last for an extremely short period of time. However, the Black Flames for Qin Yu and his brothers’ Divine Tribulation instead lasted for nearly twenty breaths. Being burned by such raging Divine Flames for such a long period of time, it was likely that even a High Quality Divine Artifact would melt under such flames.“Huff…” Magically, those purgatory-like Black Divine Flames, that had covered the entire area, suddenly turned to nothingness and disappeared.The Second Great Divine Tribulation had been passed.“Grandfather, third grandfather is so powerful.” Qin Nan stood beside Qin Feng. However, his eyes were fixed upon Qin Yu. His gaze displayed his marveled expression. He was marveled by the astonishing strength that Qin Yu had displayed. Truly, it was too astonishing.Qin Feng also nodded. His gaze was also filled with excitement.His own third brother, the Little Yu from back then, had already turned into such an amazing person.The large number of Qin clansmen, all of them possessed gazes filled with pride. At the same time, they were chatting with one another via Voice Transmission gasping of their admiration for Qin Yu. However, a person standing beside Qin De instead had a slightly unsightly expression.“Qin Yu, you are even stronger than I had imagined.” Seeing Qin Yu, Xuan Xi’s eyes were shrinking back unceasingly. “If I weren’t going to attack now, then it might really be possible for you to pass the Third Great Divine Tribulation.”Xuan Xi glanced at the three distant level nine Demon Emperors with the corner of her eyes.She didn’t dare to inspect them with her Immortal Awareness at all because she feared that she might be discovered by the three of them. At this moment, on the site of the Divine Tribulation’s observation, the only people who caused her fear were these three. As for those eighty plus Consecrated, all of them possessed strength weaker than her. It was simply impossible for them to stop her.“They are more than a hundred meters from me. If I were to suddenly strike and kill Qin De, it would simply be impossible for them to block me.” Xuan Xi glanced at Qin De who stood three to four meters away from her.Three to four meters, with the attack speed that Xuan Xi possessed, if she were to attack Qin De, those three level nine Demon Emperors definitely wouldn’t be able to react in time.“Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, the Heart’s Devils of this Third Great Divine Tribulation are extremely powerful. Furthermore, with the three of us undergoing the Divine Tribulation together, I reckon that those Heart’s Devils’ strength would increase by a lot. The two of you do not possess high level souls, I will take the initiative and attack those Heart’s Devils and exterminate all of them completely. As for the Divine Lightning, I am also confident that I can annihilate that too. The two of you merely need to watch me.”At this moment, Qin Yu was filled with confidence.“Sigh, I truly feel wronged.” Said Hou Fei helplessly. “If I were to take on the Divine Tribulation by myself, I definitely would be able to show off my skills. However, after this Divine Tribulation’s power increased by over a dozen times or more, I also do not dare to block this Third Great Divine Tribulation. Sigh, it’s all because the Mixed Hair Bird and I want to ascend to the Divine Realm together with you, big brother. We can only let you, big brother, be in the limelight.”Hei Yu also smiled.Hearing that, Qin Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry.He decided to block the Third Great Divine Tribulation, yet Hou Fei said that he was showing off and basking in the limelight. This Hou Fei… Qin Yu didn’t know what to say,Suddenly…Qin Yu felt a burst of palpitation. It was a foreboding sensation.“What happened?” Qin Yu immediately turned his gaze to the people watching the Divine Tribulation from afar. Almost simultaneously, his Divine Awareness also spread over there. The scene that he saw had caused his complexion to undergo a huge change. A heart shocking scene appeared before him.Xuan Xi’s hand took the form of a claw and was rushing toward Qin De’s chest. Qin De’s eyes were filled with horror.With Qin De’s strength, it was simply impossible for him to react in time.As for Qin Feng, Feng Yuzi and the rest of them, they had not even notice that this was happening. The Qin clansmen behind them also had not noticed this lightning like claw strike. All of their concentration was fixed on Qin Yu who was undergoing his Divine Tribulation.Amongst Wu Lan, Ye Qu and Ao Wuxu, only Wu Lan seemed to have sensed something and looked toward Xuan Xi. His gaze displayed an expression of overwhelming shock. It was too late for him to react in time.“Royal Father!” Qin Yu’s complexion had instantly turned deathly pale.Xuan Xi and Qin De were too close to each other. For her to attack all of a sudden, even if a one’s speed were ten times as fast as hers, they would still be unable to react in time.“Haha… Qin De, if you want to blame anyone for your death, then blame your son. But you also don’t have to worry. Your son will immediately follow after you, his soul shall also be scattered!” Xuan Xi’s grim voice sounded in Qin De’s mind. At the same time, her right hand that had turned into a claw had already penetrated into Qin De’s chest.At this moment, Xuan Xi had grew excited. She had even started to recall the scene of Wu Lan killing Emperor Yu with a single fist strike.However…“My master has ordered that no one shall be allowed to harm his relatives.” An amiable and mellow voice sounded. A benign-faced old man appeared beside Qin De. He had caught Xuan Xi’s claw fist with his hand. At the same time, he had also covered Qin De with his body.Regardless of how hard Xuan Xi tried, her right hand was unable to pierce into Qin De’s chest.“Im-impossible..you,you…” Seeing the old man standing before her, Xuan Xi’s complexion had turned pale like white paper. She did not believe at all that there was anyone capable of reacting in such an instant and also be able to instantly appear beside Qin De.Faced with the old man before her, Xuan Xi felt a type of pressure. The aura that the old man before her emitted was too frightening.That was the aura of Heavenly Divine Energy.Only when he saw this scene did Qin Yu let out a sigh of relief. His heart was relaxed. “Uncle Fu, thank you!” Qin Yu can’t help but remember the scene of the time when he just came back with Uncle Fu.When Qin Yu first took over the Bewitching God Temple and returned to the Blazing Sun Galaxy’s Virtue Residence Star with Uncle Fu, the two of them had a series of exchanges.“Uncle Fu, I suspect that Mystic Emperor has a malicious plot. I wish that you protect my relatives. Do you think you can do that?” Asked Qin Yu to Uncle Fu.Uncle Fu nodded and said. “Master, I am the former housekeeper of the old master, the Craftsman God Chehou Yuan. Regardless of whether it’s my speed of my body’s toughness, they both surpass that of a High Level Heavenly Deity. Even if I cannot comprehend the laws of nature, my strength is still comparable to a Low Level Heavenly Deity. I am still certain that I can protect master’s relatives.“Uncle Fu, since you don’t have a soul, you shouldn’t be able to use Divine Awareness to observe the movements of others, so how do you fight?” Qin Yu asked.Uncle Fu said confidently. “Master, on my puppet body, there are numerous formation arrays and barrier attachments. Among them is a ‘One Aura Amplification Array.’ Based on how much energy I supply the One Aura Amplification Array with, the range of its detection increases accordingly. As long as they’re within the range of the One Aura Amplification Array, I am able to sense any movements. Furthermore, with my speed… even if they’re ten thousand miles away, I will still be able to instantly appear beside them!”Uncle Fu who possessed the One Aura Amplification Array was, in terms of close combat, even superior to ordinary Heavenly Deities. For experts at the Heavenly Deity level, they are only able to outmatch Uncle Fu through their comprehension of the spatial laws.However, Uncle Fu’s body was too powerful, his strength was too powerful and his speed was too fast. Even if they were to bind Uncle Fu through using spatial laws, if Low Level Heavenly Deities were to encounter Uncle Fu, they would only be able to bind him and flee for their lives. Only those at the Mid Level Heavenly Deity level or above could actually damage Uncle Fu.“Uncle Fu, from today till the date of my ascension, the safety of my Royal Father, big brother and everyone else is in your hands.” Said Qin Yu solemnly.“Yes, master. I will definitely not allow anyone to harm master’s relatives.” Said Uncle Fu respectfully.The number of people watching the Divine Tribulation was only in an area roughly several hundred meters large. Uncle Fu’s One Aura Amplification Array had completely covered the area. All of the movements of everyone present in this area was evident to Uncle Fu.The moment when Xuan Xi had turned her hand to the claw form, Uncle Fu had already noticed it.With Uncle Fu’s speed that was hundreds of thousands times faster than Qin Yu’s speed, it was extremely easy for him to block Xuan Xi.“Bang!”When Uncle Fu captured Xuan Xi’s right hand, he casually struck Xuan Xi’s abdomen with a palm strike. Following a low vibration noise, Xuan Xi’s body had instantly turned into fine powder.“Pfff, so powerful. I had immediately left my body with my Nascent Soul the moment he caught me. But who would’ve expect that even with my Nascent Soul out of my body, a single palm strike to my body would cause my Nascent Soul to be seriously injured.” Xuan Xi was shocked.When Xuan Xi’s Nascent Soul had left her body, she rushed toward the area of the Divine Tribulation with an astonishing speed.“Not good.” Uncle Fu’s expression changed.Xuan Xi was a level nine Immortal Emperor. Once she entered the area of the Divine Tribulation, the Tribulation Cloud would also send down her Divine Tribulation. This would cause the three-man Divine Tribulation to become a four-man Divine Tribulation. When that happens, who knows how much stronger the Divine Tribulation’s might would increase by.With a movement of his foot.Uncle Fu’s speed was fast to a peak level. Like teleporting, he had arrived beside Xuan Xi’s Nascent Soul. Uncle Fu wanted to kill Xuan Xi before her Nascent Soul reached the Divine Tribulation’s area.“Ahhh~~~”Instantly, Xuan Xi’s Nascent Soul gave off a dazzling brilliance. It was dazzling like the sun. Her speed instantly increased by several ten folds. She managed to escape Uncle Fu’s capture. Uncle Fu was prepared to go forward and enter into the Divine Tribulation Area to kill Xuan Xi.“Uncle Fu, do not come in. If you enter the Divine Tribulation Area, the people from the Divine Realm would definitely discover it.” Qin Yu’s voice sounded in Uncle Fu’s mind.Uncle Fu’s movement immediately stopped.Although Qin Yu did not know much about people from the Divine Realm observing the Divine Tribulations, Uncle Fu had heard about it before… He knew that those people from the Divine Realm were only able to see the scenario within the Divine Tribulation Area.If those people from the Divine Realm were to discover that a puppet like him had appeared in the Divine Tribulation Area, then the consequences that, that would bring… Uncle Fu felt a sense of palpitation just thinking about it.“Huff!”Xuan Xi’s Nascent Soul released a large amount of energy. She instantly condensed the energy into a human form. However, the current Xuan Xi’s entire body was radiating with shine. It was evident that she had reached the final moment of her life.At the final moment of her life, Xuan Xi raised her head to look at the sky.At this moment… that rolling endless number of black clouds actually once again started to give birth to a large blood cloud. The blood cloud that was originally ten thousand miles circumference had actually increased twofold. Its circumference had now reached about twenty thousand miles.As the the Divine Tribulation area, it had increased by a small amount.Having seen the changes in the sky, Xuan Xi’s sight was shifted to Qin Yu.“Qin Yu, can you see that? The Tribulation Clouds have managed to sense the existence of this level nine Immortal Emperor. The three-man Divine Tribulation is now a four-man Divine Tribulation.” Xuan Xi’s voice sounded in Qin Yu’s mind.As for Xuan Xi’s body, the light radiating from it grew even more dazzling.“Xuan Xi…” Qin Yu grew silent.“Even if I have to die… I will still not let you escape my vengeance. Brother Feng Yu’s death, how could I not avenge him? The only mistake within my plan was that I did not expect for that old man to be present. I truly didn’t expect that there was such an expert in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Today, my plans have failed because the heavens have wanted my death to punish me for my sins. However, Qin Yu, although I will die, you… will soon join me. Look, the unprecedented four people Divine Tribulation is about to descend. Let me see how you are going to block that!”Following the Immortal Awareness Voice Transmission, Xuan Xi’s entire body had turned into an item of extreme shine.With Xuan Xi as the center, the surging energy was spreading all over. Finally, following an explosion, Xuan Xi had disappeared from the world. Not even a trace of her soul remained.Silence!All of the people that were watching the Divine Tribulation had grown silent. Qin De, Qin Feng and everyone were all feeling a burst of fear. As for Feng Yuzi, he looked coldly to Lian Zhu beside him.“That vile and hateful Mystic Emperor, she had caused the three-man Divine Tribulation to change into a four-man one. Will third grandfather be able to block it?” Said Qin Nan worriedly in a low voice.“He will, he most definitely will.” Said Qin Feng resolutely.“That’s right, he most definitely will. Yu’er has never disappointed me before. He will only continue to surprise me.” Qin De’s gaze was completely fixed on Qin Yu within the Divine Tribulation Area.As for Qin Yu, he merely looked to the location where Xuan Xi exploded. As for the aftermath of the explosion, he didn’t care for it in the slightest.“Xuan Xi, the one who forced me extremely deeply was Emperor Yu. Thus, he died. And you, you’re merely his helper. The hatred between us was not great. Originally, I had wanted to spare your life as long as you did not harm my relatives. However you… you wanted to kill even my relatives. Sigh…”Qin Yu took a long sigh.It was probably because Xuan Xi’s love for Emperor Yu was extremely deep that she had tried to do such a thing.“Big brother, the Third Great Divine Tribulation is about to descend.” Hou Fei’s voice sounded.Qin Yu turned his head around to look at Hou Fei and Hei Yu. He slightly smiled. “Rest assured, even if it is a four people Divine Tribulation, I will still be able to block it.” Qin Yu raised his head to look to the Tribulation Cloud in the sky.Mists started to appear from the twenty thousand miles circumference crimson colored Tribulation Cloud. At the same time, black lightning was twisting and struggling within the cloud like dragons.“These Divine Lightning Bolts are clearly more powerful than the one from the Gold Punishment Lord’s Divine Tribulation. The Divine Lightning Bolts of the Cyan Emperor and the Gold Punishment Lord’s Tribulations were only gray colored. However, this is black. Their Divine Lightning Bolts were thin like hair. However, these ones are like dragons….”Golden quicksilver-like radiance started to flow around Qin Yu’s body’s surface. All the muscles within his body violently surged. Even the space surrounding his body started to violently tremble.Qin Yu faced upward. His gaze was like lightning when he stared at the rolling gray mist and the dragon-like black lightning bolts.
Chapter 490 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 63 – Complete FusionTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThe gray mist started to permeate out from the twenty thousand miles circumference blood cloud. They continued to coalesce, the thickness of the gray mist continued to increase while the size started to become smaller and smaller. From the original twenty thousand miles, it had decreased to roughly ten miles in circumference.However, the gray mist had now turned dreadfully dense. One could not even see through it.“Rumble~~~”The world was rumbling. The planet on which Qin Yu and his brothers were undergoing their Divine Tribulation was trembling. The three-man Divine Tribulation had turned into a four-man one. The might of the Divine Tribulation had increased by several times. Even the planet had become unable to resist that sort of oppressive power.Within the gray mist were numerous water-tank sized dragons formed by Black Divine Lightning rolling about. That sort of oppressive might had caused all the Qin clansmen who were watching the Divine Tribulation from afar to tremble in their hearts.“Yu’er.” Qin De clenched his fists tightly. His finger joints had even turned pale from the excessive clenching. Traces of blood had started to flow from his fingernails. However, Qin De was still unable to take his eyes off Qin Yu within the Divine Tribulation Area.Silence. Everyone had grown silent.Quietness!Everyone held their breath as they continued looking at Qin Yu and his brothers inside the Divine Tribulation Area.The three-man Divine Tribulation had instantly increased to a four-man Divine Tribulation. The current Third Great Divine Tribulation was much much stronger than the one that Qin Yu had originally anticipated. Would Qin Yu still be able to take it on?“Master, are you really not going to use the Divine Spear Waning Snow? Are you really planning to conceal all your treasures when taking on the four-man Divine Tribulation?” Uncle Fu mumbled in his heart.If Qin Yu weren’t trying to conceal his strength, it would be very easy for him to take on this four people Divine Tribulation.However, Qin Yu still remembered what Granny Yin Hua had advised him back then. Thus, what else could he do?Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness was able to clearly discover that within the extremely thick and condensed gray mist, the numerous dragon shaped Black Divine Lightning bolts were unceasingly ramming into each other, unceasingly coming together. Originally, there were several hundred dragon shaped Divine Lightning bolts. However, following the collisions and convergence, they combined and turned into a completely new type of Divine Lightning.Following the elapse of time, the amount of lightning continued to decrease. The several hundred dragon shaped Divine Lightning bolts, had, after a short moment of time had passed, actually transformed into four new Divine Lightning bolts.These four Divine Lightning bolts’ appearance was like that of a sharp sword. Furthermore, these four Divine Lightning swords were flickering unceasingly. The electric sparks they gave off were even ripping apart the space unceasingly.“So this is how it is.” When Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness clearly saw the change that appeared before him, he came to realize what had happened. “The final four Divine Lightning bolts, that were formed after the gathering of the Divine Lightnings are probably the Divine Lightning bolts for the four people that are undergoing the Divine Tribulation.”Hou Fei and Hei Yu’s hearts were feeling heavy. The pressure brought about by that ten mile circumference thick gray mist was too immense for them.“Big brother, let’s take it on together!” Said Hei Yu coldly. However, his voice contained within it his worries.“Big brother, the Mystic Emperor rushed in here before her death. This Divine Tribulation ought to be different from the one that you had anticipated. Its might is too powerful. Let’s take it on together.” Hou Fei was so worried that his right hand that held the Black Stick was trembling.Qin Yu, however, still had his head raised and was still looking at that huge lump of gray mist in the sky. He did not answer Hei Yu or Hou Fei at all.“It’s about to descend.” Qin Yu suddenly muttered.“Xiao Hei, Fei Fei, stand by me. Do not exceed a distance of ten feet from me.” Said Qin Yu to Hou Fei and Hei Yu with a smile. “Rest assured, I am still confident in taking on this four people Divine Tribulation.”Seeing Qin Yu like this, Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked to each other. They could only trust and listen to Qin Yu.“Big brother, if you cannot block it, do not force yourself.” Said Hei Yu via Demon Awareness Voice Transmission.Qin Yu looked to Hei Yu and nodded with a smile.“The Third Great Divine Tribulation is here.” Qin Yu’s expression suddenly grew solemn. The enormous lump of gray mist that had been floating in the sky the entire time had started to fall. The speed at which this lump of gray mist fell was not very fast at all.In about ten breaths time, this lump of gray mist had completely arrived at Qin Yu and his brother’s location.“Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, Grandmist Spiritual Treasure… allow me to experience your strongest strength today.” Qin Yu clenched his first. After that, he violently opened his arms. With a loud and clear voice, he shouted, “Gold Force; Rise!”With Qin Yu as the center, a clear golden membrane of light started to expand unceasingly in all directions.The range of the golden membrane of light was endlessly increasing. From a radius of three meters, it increased to five meters, six meters, seven meters…. ten meters!A ten meters radius huge half-sphere shaped golden membrane of light had formed. The gray mist and the four sword shaped Divine Lightning bolts were actually unable to break through the golden membrane of light!“Big brother…” Hou Fei and Hei Yu were drumbstruck.“Royal Father, do not worry. Little Yu will definitely be fine.” Qin Feng held his Royal Father’s hand. At this moment, Qin De’s hands were clenched into fists. Tight and cold fists.Qin De looked to the gray mist in the distant.“I can’t see what’s happening inside at all!” Qin De’s heart was filled with worry.With his Immortal Awareness, he was unable to penetrate through the Heart’s Devil Mist. It was impossible for him to see what was happening in the gray mist at all. Not only him… almost everyone present was worried.“Crack, Pop, Bang…”A cracking sound was heard from within.“Golden light, it’s golden light.” Qin Feng’s eyes suddenly lit up.The Qin clan, over a thousand members, were able to clearly see the rays of golden light. Like sharp sword, those golden lights penetrated through the gray mist. The dense gray mist were also split apart by the golden lights.“How, how could master be this powerful?” Uncle Fu was puzzled. “That shouldn’t be possible.”Uncle Fu was unable to understand. The other people were also filled with confusion. However, the current Qin Yu was completely free of worries.“Haha… Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, the power of this Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, after having finished completely binding it, is indeed powerful enough.” Surrounding Qin Yu, numerous rays of Divine Awareness were bursting all over. Qin Yu was using his soul’s power to frantically attack those Heart’s Devils.The numerous Heart’s Devils that the Heart’s Devil Mist birthed were similar to soul’s power. If one were to use his eyes to inspect, they would be unable to detect those Heart’s Devils at all. One could only use their soul’s power to find them, defend against them and attack them!For a Divine Tribulation of a single person, the regular type of Heart’s Devil was already enough to deal a great shock to a level nine Immortal Emperor’s soul. As for this four-man Divine Tribulation, the effect of the Heart’s Devils had also increased by several tens of times. However, Qin Yu’s soul was more than several tens of times stronger than ordinary level nine Immortal Emperors.“Tsk~~~”Under the attack from an extremely sharp and powerful Divine Awareness, all of those Heart’s Devils were swept to nothing.“What sort of power is big brother using that’s this powerful? Even the Divine Lightning is unable to break through his defensive barrier.” Hou Fei looked at what was occurring before him with a stupefied expression. He was unable to refrain from looking to Hei Yu beside him and asking him.Hei Yu shook his head. “I also don’t know.”This secret, other than Qin Yu, there were no other person that knew about it.“In these past tens of years, I merely allowed the ‘Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl’ to absorb a trace of, no, a bit more than half a trace of the ‘flour paste energy’ from the Stellar Space. After spending twenty years time, I managed to completely bind the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. I reckon that I am the only Gold Punishment Lord in the entire history of Gold Punishment Lords that managed to completely fuse with the ‘Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.’”Qin Yu snickered in his mind.It had been roughly ninety years now, since Qin Yu had returned to the Qin Clan. In these ninety years, Qin Yu merely spent a little amount of time and managed to completely bind the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. This idea had come to him after his experience with the Refining Flame Wristband.“This ‘flour paste energy’ is indeed peculiar. The Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl merely absorbed such a tiny amount of it, yet it let me completely and successfully fuse with it it. What might the next stage of the Origin that has been absorbing the flour paste energy constantly ever since i reached the Origin Realm be?”Although he was undergoing the Divine Tribulation, Qin Yu was actually relaxed enough to think about other things than the Divine Tribulation.“However, my estimation last time was wrong. This Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, after having completely bound it, its strength is no weaker than the Divine Spear Waning Snow.” Qin Yu looked at the four sword shaped Divine Lightning bolts, they were unceasingly bombarding the golden defensive membrane. However, they were unable to break through at all.After the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl was completely bound and fused, the energy that Qin Yu used was actually a greatly powered up Gold Force. The energy from this power up mostly originated from the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. The Gold Force resulting from this power up was at least a hundred times stronger than an eighteen star Emperor’s Gold Force.“Break for me!”Qin Yu suddenly shouted loudly. The radiance of that ten meters radius large golden membrane had greatly increased in a flash. Frantically, the light spread to all directions. The area of the golden membrane had increased from ten meters to several thousand meters….Wherever the golden membrane went, the gray colored mist was dissipated. In an instant, the Heart’s Devil Mist within the Divine Tribulation Area had completely dissipated. All of the Qin clansmen who were watching the Divine Tribulation could now clearly see what was happening in the Divine Tribulation Area.Following the rapid increase of the golden light membrane’s size, the energy had naturally been distributed to the entire membrane, causing it to become vulnerable to attacks concentrated at a single point. The four Black Divine Lightning swords, that had already had their might decreased, finally managed to pierce through the golden membrane. After piercing through the golden membrane of light, the four Black Divine Lightning swords instantly shot towards Qin Yu.“The most useful aspect of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl is not its long-distance attack. Rather, it is its ability to increase the toughness of the body and increasing one’s might in close distance combat.” Qin Yu smiled. With a movement of his body.“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”Following four continuous sharp echos, the four sword shaped Divine Lightning bolts, that had already been weakened notably, when matched against Qin Yu’s fist, were all shattered with a single fist strike.Qin Yu raised his head up to look at the sky.That twenty thousand miles long blood cloud was dissipating. At the same time, the rolling borderless black clouds were also dissipating.Evidently… the Divine Tribulation had passed!“Big brother.”Excited smiles immediately appeared on Hou Fei and Hei Yu’s faces.And because of the fact that the Heart’s Devil Mist was dissipated, Qin Den, Qin Feng and the rest of them who managed to see Qin Yu shattering the four Divine Lightning Swords deeply breathed a sigh of relief. In the process of the Divine Tribulation, they had been on the edge for a very long time.“Big brother, when did your strength increase by this much?” Hou Fei asked excitedly.Qin Yu understood in his heart.That his strength’s increase was actually because of his complete fusion with the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. The completed Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl had caused his body’s toughness to increase by an unknown magnitude. Even his Gold Force had increased by a hundredfold. It was likely that his Gold Force had become even stronger than ordinary Divine Energy.“Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, it is truly deserving of the title of Grandmist Spiritual Treasure indeed. After completely binding it, its effect is more than ten times as strong as before i let the pearl absorb the flour paste energy of my Stellar Space.” Qin Yu grew fond of this Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.The Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl was a Gold Attribute Spiritual Treasure.For it to be able to increase his body’s toughness and his strength by so much, Qin Yu naturally liked it. However, was he able to bring the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl to the Divine Realm?If he were to bring it, he’d be met with a large number of enemies. Especially that mysterious person who had given the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl to the Dark Star Realm.“Cannot be greedy, I cannot be greedy. There are still a couple Grandmist Spiritual Treasures that I have yet to bind. How can I possibly be greedy for the Dark Star Realm’s Clan Protection Treasure?” Qin Yu forcibly held down his greed. However, the current Qin Yu didn’t know that…. what he had done earlier had already caused the experts from the Divine Realm to take note of him.
Chapter 491 - Book 14
Book 14 – The New Sovereign – Chapter 64 – Ascension to the Divine RealmTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinOn this uninhabited planet, voices of excitements rose and fell in succession. The younger generations of the Qin Clan were discussing with each other in excitement. As for Qin De, Qin Feng, Feng Yuzi and the rest, they had walked over to Qin Yu and his brothers.“Royal Father, I’ve succeeded.” Qin Yu looked to Qin De. He had a smile on his face.Qin De was both excited and gratified. “Good, good, Yu’er, congratulations on passing the Divine Tribulation.” At this moment, Qin De’s train of thought were extremely complicated. He wanted to say a lot of things but only managed to say a word of congratulations in the end.Qin Yu was able to sense his Royal Father’s frame of mind.“Royal Father, let’s return home first.” At this moment, Qin Yu had suddenly turned a bit sentimental.That was because as he had successfully passed the Divine Tribulation, it meant that he will be ascending to the Divine Realm. Furthermore, at the instant when he successfully passed the Divine Tribulation, Qin Yu had sensed that he would be ascending to the Divine Realm in half a year’s time.“Ascending to the Divine Realm. Once I ascend to the Divine Realm, how many years would it take for me to meet my Royal Father and big brother again?”Qin Yu looked at his Royal Father and big brother. He felt a pained sensation in his heart.“The Divine Realm is different from the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Back then, when I ascended to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, I still possessed the opportunity to meet my Royal Father and big brother again. However, once I reach the Divine Realm… With Royal Father and big brother’s aptitude for cultivation, I’m afraid that it will be very hard for them to ascend to the Divine Realm. And if I were to attempt at returning from the Divine Realm… it would also be extremely hard to do.”Qin Yu felt a bitter pain in his heart. It had caused his expression to turn a bit unsightly.“I can only try to find a way to occasionally come back to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm to visit in the future.” Thought Qin Yu in his heart. There are two ways to come back to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm from the Divine Realm…. The first method is to achieve full control of the spatial laws and reach the Godking level. The second method is to gain status and strength and then bribe some people to help.This method was also something that Qin Yu came to know from Granny Yin Hua. As for how exactly he should bribe others, Qin Yu still wasn’t sure.“Brother Qin, that Mystic Emperor actually used such a fierce method to try to kill us. And now, a large number of our Qin clan’s descendants have married with people relating to the Mystic Emperor, I wish that Brother Qin would be able to settle this issue as soon as possible.”An ice-cold voice sounded. Qin Yu turned around to look. The person who said those words was Feng Yuzi.Feng Yuzi’s expression was very ugly. He liked his current wife Lian Yu. However, when he met Lian Yu, her strength was stronger than his and her status higher than his. Why would she fall for a nobody like him?Feng Yuzi had been baffled the entire time. Could it be that Lian Yu had really fallen in love with him at first sight? He had been skeptical of it the entire time and had been guessing the reason why she was with him. However, he didn’t dare to be certain.And now, Feng Yuzi had a determined answer in his heart. His wife had married him because of the Mystic Emperor’s command.“Brother Feng.” Qin De looked to Feng Yuzi. He then sighed. “Okay…”Qin De was very pained. Those people could also be considered as members of the Qin Clan. After all these years, they most definitely had developed feelings too. He really didn’t wish to do such a thing. However, for the Qin Clan, he must become heartless!“Royal Father.” Qin Yu suddenly stopped Qin De. At the same time, he said via Divine Awareness Voice Transmission. “Royal Father, the Mystic Emperor is now dead. It is not certain that those people are dyingly loyal to the Mystic Emperor. Thus, please leave those people for me to handle. Allow me to be the evil person. After all… I will be ascending to the Divine Realm soon.”“Yu’er?” Qin De looked to Qin Yu with a shocked expression.Qin Yu smiled indifferently. He said via Divine Awareness Voice Transmission. “Royal Father, the amount of time that we have been together is not long. Allow this to be the last thing I, your son, do you for you before my ascension.”Qin De’s eyes had turned slightly red.Once Qin Yu ascends to the Divine Realm, when would they be able to meet again? After ten thousand years? After a million years? After a billion years?“When I, your son, am no longer here in the future, I can only let big brother and second brother fulfill my filial duty towards you, for me.” Qin Yu forced a smile on his face. He was trying his best to hold back his tears. His gaze turned to his big brother. “Big brother, the Qin Clan shall be in your hands from now on.”Qin Feng nodded. “Little Yu, you can rest assured.”Qin Yu smiled and nodded. He then turned to the other Qin clansmen. His gaze was ice-cold. It had caused all of the Qin clansmen to have a sensation of bone-chilling coldness.“Listen carefully. The Mystic Emperor had harbored evil thoughts against our Qin Clan. She was determined to exterminate both the Qin Clan and I. As for those people who are related to the Mystic Emperor, in consideration of the safety of the Qin Clan, I must inspect each and every one of them!”Qin Yu’s voice was extremely grim. There was no room to save the situation.Immediately, a lot of people started making noise.“Utmost Supreme Third Elder, please don’t. I believe that my wife is definitely not someone who plots against our Qin Clan.” Immediately, some of the Qin clansmen started voicing their opinions intensely.Even Qin Feng’s grandson, Qin Nan, had grown emotional. “Third grandfather, please don’t kill my wife. I believe her. Please don’t….”After having been married to the women from the Nine Amplifications Sect, the many Qin clansmen most definitely had developed deep affection towards them. Hearing what Qin Yu had said, this group of Qin clansmen had all started to panic.“It truly is hard to be the evil person.” Sighed Qin Yu in his heart.However, Qin Yu’s expression was still gave and stern. Coldly, he said. “Silence!”Once Qin Yu said those words, the Qin clansmen that were voicing their opinions all felt a shudder in their souls. Those several tens of Qin clansmen all started to sweat cold bullets down their forehead. That sort of oppressive sensation made them feel as if they were on the brink of death.“I will not kill your life companions. However, I will use a mysterious technique to ‘inspect their soul.’ Anyone that is related to the Mystic Emperor must be daring to take on the trial of my technique. Anyone that manages to pass the trial shall still be considered a part of our Qin Clan.”Qin Yu removed the soul oppressiveness.“Whoever is willing to voluntarily accept the trial, step forward.” Said Qin Yu indifferently.“Qin Nan, rest assured.” Qin Nan’s wife, a beautiful girl, comforted Qin Nan. She was the first to walk toward Qin Yu. Following her, the second and then the third… more and more people had walked toward Qin Yu.Other than a couple males, the rest of them were all females.Qin Yu was watching from the front the entire time, and suddenly, there was a woman whose hand was like lightning as she thrust it towards a man beside her. Qin Yu’s gaze instantly turned cold.“Humph.”Right after Qin Yu coldly humphed, he arrived within the crowd. He caught the woman’s wrist with his hand and stared coldly at this woman. “What? You knew that you could not escape so you tried to kill my Qin clansmen in vain?”That woman was extremely beautiful. She looked at Qin Yu coldly. “”Qin Yu, you are very powerful indeed. I am unexpectedly unable to kill even a single person under your eyelid. Good, if you wish to kill me, then go ahead.” After that woman finished saying those words, she turned her head around with an unfeeling appearance.“Nan’er, you, why…?” That man who was about to be attacked by this woman had an expression of both shock and grief.That woman gazed at her surrounding. “Haha… Qin Clan, humph, what do you people think your Qin Clan is? Had it not been for the fact that you possessed the genius Qin Yu, how could your Qin Clan possibly be able to be so well-regarded like so?”That woman then looked to her husband. She sneered. “Qin Liufeng, do not show me that sort of expression. Did you really think that I had fallen in love with you?… Haha, had it not been for Her Majesty Mystic Emperor’s order, how would I even fancy someone like you? Her Majesty Mystic Emperor had left, yet I am unable to even realize the final order that she left. Qin Yu, kill me.”This Qin clansman called Qin Liufeng had his expression changed countless times. He then sighed in disappointment and frustration. ”That’s right, you do not fancy me, and I am also unworthy of you to fancy me.”Qin Liufeng turned to Qin Yu. Sincerely, he said. “Utmost Supreme Third Elder, I wish to ask you a favor.”Qin Yu looked at this Qin clansman before him.Usually, when Immortals marry, their feelings are extremely deep. To receive such a shock from the woman that he loved, Qin Yu was easily able to imagine Qin Liufeng’s sorrow. However, seeing Qin Liufeng’s expression, Qin Yu slightly nodded.“Go ahead.”Qin Liufeng nodded and said. “Nan’er is my wife, at the very least she was my wife, granted that she found me unworthy of her fancy. Yet I still wish for Utmost Supreme Third Elder to spare her life.”“Very well.” Said Qin Yu without the slightest hesitation.An enemy that had already been discovered, was someone that posed no danger. This woman called Nan’er, her strength was merely that of a Heavenly Immortal. Even if she possessed enmity towards the Qin Clan, what could she possibly do? The Qin Clan had never once feared challengers.“Thank you, Utmost Supreme Third Elder.” Said Qin Liufeng as he bowed.“You…” That woman looked at Qin Liufeng with an unbelieving expression.Qin Liufeng smiled with disappointment and frustration. “Since you do not like me, you can leave. I do not wish to force you. From today on, you are still Chen Nan. And I, I am still Qin Liufeng of the Qin Clan.”“Furthermore, Chen Nan, remember this. The Qin Clan had increased in status because of our Utmost Supreme Third Elder. Our Qin Clan also prides ourselves in our Utmost Supreme Third Elder. However, we descendants of the Qin Clan are not complacent merely because of this. My uncle, my brothers of the same generation, and even my nephew of an younger generation, each and every one of them are putting forth great effort with Utmost Supreme Third Elder as their goal. Today, we are still weak. We are only able to stand straight in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm by relying on our Utmost Supreme Third Elder.”“However, I believe that there will definitely be a day when our Qin Clan will stand at the summit of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm through the effort and struggle of all our Qin clansmen.” Said Qin Liufeng as he stared straight at Chen Nan. His gaze was extremely firm with resolution.Chen Nan had became momentarily speechless after the speech that Qin Liufeng had given. Her heart that was unmoved all these years had actually slightly trembled at this moment.Chen Nan had never thought that her gentle and soft to a somewhat feeble level husband actually also possessed such a side when he toughened up.“Utmost Supreme Third Elder, Utmost Supreme First Elder, Clan Master, I shall return first.” Said Qin Liufeng with a bow.Qin Yu smiled as he looked at Qin Liufeng. In these ninety years, Qin Yu had grown familiar with the Qin clansmen. Truly he had never anticipated that the obscure Qin Liufeng, who seemed like a person who tried to never offend anybody, actually also had such a side.“Royal Father, you should put importance in the cultivation of this Qin Liufeng. Among those Divine Artifacts that I have left behind, set one aside for him.” Said Qin Yu via Divine Awareness Voice Transmission to Qin De.Qin De also nodded.Before Qin Yu underwent his Divine Tribulation, he had already given the several tens of Divine Artifacts, that he had found in the external regions of the Bewitching God Temple, to his father and given him the control over the distribution of the Divine Artifacts. Other than the several tens of Divine Artifacts, Qin Yu had also left behind a Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact.In order to completely bind a Low Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, one’s soul must reach the Gold Soul Pellet stage. This was the treasure that Qin Yu had prepared for any future genius of the Qin Clan.Those who were related to the Mystic Emperor, were all inspected by Qin Yu, using his soul inspection technique. Among these people. not a single person knew of the Mystic Emperor’s plan. They would only occasionally relate information back to Mystic Emperor.The ones that truly possessed killing intent against the Qin Clan.Other than the woman who was released, Chen Nan, another woman was found. Actually, neither Chen Nan nor this woman knew of the Mystic Emperor’s plans. However, the Mystic Emperor had ordered them that if she were to die, they must help her kill the people from the Qin Clan.The reason why the Mystic Emperor told these two women was because she trusted them completely.“The Mystic Emperor could also be considered as being amazing. Even though she had died, these two women’s hearts were still so determined.” Said Qin Yu with a light smile. Qin De and Qin Feng also smiled and nodded.In this inspection, Feng Yuzi’s wife, Lian Yu, fortunately did not possess any enmity for the Qin Clan. This had also allowed Feng Yuzi to take of sigh of relief.Half a year. Qin Yu only had half a year more to be with his relatives. Thus, he naturally valued this period of time even more. As for Hei Yu, he also quietly spend the final moments with his wife Bai Ling and his daughter Hei Tong.Time passed.Three months later, on the Dark Star Realm’s Gold Punishment Star.Qin Yu’s figure suddenly appeared outside the Inherited Palace. The Guard Elder who sat in the middle of the Inherited Palace in a cross legged position seemed to have sensed Qin Yu’s arrival. He raised his head, looked at Qin Yu and said. “Your Majesty Liu Xing, it’s you?” The Guard Elder was a bit surprised.Qin Yu slightly nodded.“Brother Wen Feng, quickly come to the outside of the Inherited Palace.” Qin Yu sent a voice transmission to Wen Feng using his Divine Awareness. Wen Feng lived on a palace on another mountain top. The distance between there to here was extremely close. In a blink of an eye, Wen Feng had arrived outside the Inherited Palace.Wen Feng looked to Qin Yu with surprise. “Your Majesty Liu Xing, your training has finished?”“Do not call me Your Majesty Liu Xing. Furthermore, in a short time from now, people will be calling you Your Majesty Wen Feng.” Said Qin Yu while smiling. At this moment, the Guard Elder had also walked out of the Inherited Palace.The Guard Elder asked. “Your Majesty Liu Xing, you mean?”“I have already passed the Divine Tribulation. Not too long from now, I will be ascending to the Divine Realm.” Said Qin Yu while smiling.Wen Feng and the Guard Elder were both stunned.“Your Majesty Liu Xing, why didn’t you inform us about it earlier?” Asked the Guard Elder.Qin Yu shook his head and said. “Actually, before the fight for the Gold Punishment Lord’s position, I already knew that I would be undergoing the Divine Tribulation. After I obtained the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl, I started seclusion training… I trained all the way till the day my Divine Tribulation arrived. Now that I have passed the Divine Tribulation, I have come back to return the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl to you. After some time, I shall be ascending to the Divine Realm. It is fine for me to ascend by myself. There is no need for you all to come and see me off.”With a flip of his hand, Qin Yu took out the ‘Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl.’ He removed the soul binding of the Gold Punishment Spiritual Pearl. He felt a bit unwilling to part with it, however he still handed it over to the Guard Elder.The Gold Punishment Lord is the leader of the Three Great Sovereigns, the person with the highest position in the Dark Star Realm.Whether Qin Yu announced his Divine Tribulation, whether he wanted others to see him off during his ascension, they were all his own private matters. Since Qin Yu did not wish to do that, others also cannot force him to.“Liu Xing, when you ascend, let me to see you off.” Said Wen Feng.Qin Yu smiled and shook his head. “There’s no need. If fate have it, we shall meet again in the Divine Realm.” When he ascends to the Divine Realm, Qin Yu would definitely have the Qin Clan and a large number of other people seeing him off. If Wen Feng were to go… wouldn’t that mean that he’ll be leaking his identity?Although Qin Yu did not fear his identity being leaked, it was still somewhat troublesome.“Okay. In that case, we shall meet again in the Divine Realm.” Wen Feng also displayed a smile on his face.In a blink of an eye, Qin Yu and his brothers had spent their final days in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. On this day, a large number of people were gathered on the plains of the Blazing Sun Galaxy’s Virtue Residence Star.If others were to know about the identity of this group of people, it would bring about a lot of fear.From the Demon Realm: Zong Jue from the Bird Clan, Ao Wuming and Ao Fang from the Dragon Clan, the Ox Demon Emperor and the Great Ape Emperor Sun Yuan from the Beast Clan…Other than the super experts of the Demon Realm, the overlord of the Devil Realm, Wu Long, had also arrived with his two seniors, Mo Luo and Mo Kong.From the Immortal Realm, the Flame Emperor, Jun Luoyu and the rest had also come.In the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, over half of the major powers’ leaders had shown up to see Qin Yu and his brothers off.“It’s about time for the ascension.” Qin Yu raised his head and looked to the sky.Regardless of how reluctant to part he was in his heart, he would still have to face it at this moment. Qin Yu looked to the group of people before him: his Royal Father Qin De, his big brother Qin Feng, Uncle Feng Yuzi, his good brothers Jun Luoyu and Ao Wuming, his seniors Great Ape Emperor, Ox Demon Emperor, Ao Fang and the rest, Wu Long who was extremely respectful toward him, his juniors Hei Tong, Guo Fan, Qin Nan, Qin Liufeng…“Royal Father, big brother, Uncle Feng, Luoyu, Wuming…” At this moment, Qin Yu felt an aching sensation in his heart.Once he leaves this time, how many years later would he be able to meet them again?“Dad.” Hei Tong tightly hugged Hei Yu. She was unwilling to part with him.“It’s about time for the ascension. Tong Tong, be good.” Hei Yu stiffened his heart and pushed away Hei Tong. With watery eyes, Hei Tong stood beside her mother, Bai Ling. Bai Ling was also looking at Hei Yu with unreluctant to part.Qin Yu, Hei Yu and Hou Fei simultaneously started to uncontrollably float into the sky.Qin Yu and his brothers all tried their best to force a smile to the people below them. Misty starlight started to appear from these three people’s bodies. The glow of the light grew stronger and stronger. The three of them had also flown higher and higher.After the light had completely covered Qin Yu and his brothers’ bodies. Qin Yu and his brothers looked at each other.The three of them disappeared into the air.
Chapter 492 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 1 – The First Overlook of the Divine RealmTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThe Divine Realm was an extremely boundless world. Since the birth of the Divine Realm, about a hundred million and two quadrillion years have passed. Since the birth of the Divine Realm till now, there have been many rich and powerful powers existing at a period of time. However, following the passage of time, those powers have mostly collapsed.[TL: 1.000000002*10^24 years]Thrive, then decay, that was the law of nature. However, eight powers managed to escape this law of nature. Since the birth till now, a period of a hundred million and two quadrillion years, these eight powers were still in eternal existence.These eight powers were ancient inherited and never decaying powers.And the leaders of these eight powers were called the Sage Emperors!The Eight Great Sage Emperors, they were the people with the highest status in the Divine Realm. In terms of strength, all these Eight Great Sage Emperors possessed strength of Godkings. They are second to only the legendary Exalted Celestials. In terms of power, there was no one that could match these Eight Great Sage Emperors. In terms of weapons, the Eight Great Sage Emperors possessed the Inherited Grandmist Spiritual Treasures that had existed since the appearance of the Divine Realm.All eight of these Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were first rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Perhaps only the legendary ‘Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure’ that Exalted Celestials possessed would be able to surpass those eight Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.Strength, power, weapons, they possessed dominance in all of them.There was no need to mention how revered these Eight Great Sage Emperors were. The Eight Great Sage Emperors each occupied a territory. Of the Eight Great Sage Emperors, the ‘Utmost East Sage Emperor’ occupied a territory of the eastern region of the Divine Realm.The Ascension Pond, that was the place where those from the lower realm appear after ascending to the Divine Realm. The number of Ascension Ponds in the entire Divine Realm was fixed. There were a total of approximately eight hundred Ascension Ponds. These Ascension Ponds have existed since the time of the creation of the Divine Realm. They cannot be destroyed and were everlasting.The story happened at an Ascension Pond on a region in the eastern part of the Divine Realm.At a certain Ascension Pond of the eastern region of the Divine Realm were ten battle armored soldiers. It just so happened to be the time for this squadron to guard the Ascension Pond. Therefore, they had to stay beside the Ascension Pond for a thousand years. A thousand years later, another squadron would come to take their shift.And at this moment, these ten soldiers were chatting with each other in boredom.“You only meet someone who ascends to the Divine Realm once in countless years. And here we are, we must continue to wait here. Days like this are truly boring. Sigh. Captain, I’ve heard that you’re about to get a promotion and become a mid captain?” Said a thin and frail looking youth to a middle aged man beside him.“I’ve heard of it too. Last time, when one of our brigades were outside hunting a powerful demon beast, they instead ran into a frightening ‘Ant Swarm.’ The entire brigade of a thousand people was completely wiped out. Truly miserable.” Lamented another middle aged robust fellow. “This time around, the city was focused on getting new people to join the army and our captain was going to be promoted to become a mid captain within the new brigade.”“Don’t talk about the Ant Swarm. Sigh… Unless one has reached the Heavenly Deity level, going against those earth-shattering Ant Swarms is practically suicide.” Said that captain as he shook his head.“Captain, after you become the mid captain, your salary should increase, right? Your salary of a thousand years ought to be double now, right?” The most beautiful woman within this little squadron asked.When the armies in the Divine Realm recruit their soldiers, they do not care about the sex of their soldiers at all. All they cared was the recruit’s strength. As for this ten people squadron, there are four females.“Double, haha, that’s right.” Upon mentioning this, this squadron captain also displayed a smile on his face.However, right at this moment, the mists of the Ascension Pond beside them suddenly started to roll about. The white mists were unceasingly rising. Immediately, this squadron had stopped their idle chat.“Someone is ascending.” The brown long haired female soldier was a bit excited.The range of the white mists rolling about grew larger and larger. It was like there was a dragon rolling about within the Ascension Pond. The Ascension Pond possessed a circumference of close to a hundred meters. However, that rolling mist actually spread to the entire Ascension Pond.“The number of people who are ascending is actually greater than one or two… there’s many of them.” The eyes of that Divine Realm’s little squadron captain who possessed experience on these sort of things suddenly started to shine.Immediately, all ten of these soldiers were excited. To be able to receive this many people ascending was extremely rare. Usually, only after many years would there be a single person ascending from the Ascension Pond. For there to be many people ascending at the same time, the possibility of that was so low that one could easily imagine it. It was likely that such a thing would not even happen once in ten million years.For this little squadron, to be able to receive so many people ascending at once was a glorious deed that’s worthy of being a lifetime achievement.As the white mists continued to roll about, several figures suddenly appeared within the mists.“Tsk tsk~~~”Clearly visible dark golden energy burst forth from within the Ascension Pond. Each of the people that had ascended, had the dark gold energy go directly into their bodies. There were a total of five rays of dark gold energy.“Five people who have ascended. Truly a rare occasion.” Gasped that little squadron captain of the Divine Realm.The most beautiful woman also nodded. “These Ascension Ponds of our Yuchi City only corresponds to about a hundred cosmic spaces. For there to be five people ascending at the same time from the same cosmic space, these five of them are truly people brought together with fate.”“It appears that only one is a female. The other four are all males.”That group of Divine Realm soldiers started to discuss with each other. And while they were discussing…“Ah~~~” Numerous painful voices sounded from within that Ascension Pond. Hearing those painful voices, these soldiers were instead not concerned in the slightest. They were still discussing with one another.“The Divine Energy piercing through their bodies, each and every person that ascends to the Divine Realm has to go through this mountain pass. Back then, even I tasted that sort of suffering. Truly…” That little squadron captain smacked his lips as he sighed. He then glanced at the most beautiful woman of the squad. “Liu Fei, you’ve grown up in the Divine Realm, right? For you all, the Divine Energy would immediately pierce through your bodies right after passing the Divine Tribulation, right?”The woman called Liu Fei nodded her head. “Right after passing the Divine Tribulation, the Tribulation Clouds would directly shoot out the Divine Energy into our bodies. That sort of feeling, I truly do not wish to experience it again.”“I reckon it’ll take about an hour for the Divine Energy to finish passing through their bodies.” The little squadron captain looked to the sky to inspect the time of the day. “It’s still very early now. I suspect it’ll take four more hours till the dusk.”Time passed.After an hour, four rays of Divine Energy were severed. Those four figures were shot out from the white mist of the Ascension Pond out to the side of Ascension Pond. The ten soldiers immediately rushed to assist these four people.“Eh, how come only four finished? Why is the other one still continuing?” Said the Divine Realm’s little squadron captain in confusion.The other nine soldiers were also puzzled.This was something that was predetermined. The amount of Divine Energy that the bodies of those who have just ascended could contain was limited. The amount of Divine Energy one could contain was mostly based on two aspects. The first was one’s body’s cultivation whereas the second was one’s soul’s cultivation.The higher the level the soul was, the more Divine Energy one could absorb without them revolting.The body was the vessel of the Divine Energy. The stronger the body, the more Divine Energy it could support.“This, is this the Divine Realm?” A very painful voice sounded. The little squadron captain in the Divine Realm, Huang Xu, looked over. “That’s right, this is the Divine Realm. Don’t ask too much, first stabilize your body. Eh?”Among the four that have ascended and were sent to the shore of the Ascension Pond, a male and a female kneeled down to the ground. Their expression was that of extreme pain. The Divine Energy within their bodies was fluctuating unceasingly.As for the other two people that have ascended, they were instead standing there with composed expressions. It seemed like they were very undisturbed, as if they were not suffering at all. Merely, these two people’s gazes were fixed on that figure still within the Ascension Pond.These two people were precisely Hou Fei and Hei Yu.“Monkey, that sensation from earlier was truly unpleasant. Big brother should be fine, right?” Said Hei Yu to Hou Fei in a low voice. Having just arrived to the Divine Realm, they discovered that the Divine Realm was substantially different from their expectations.In the Divine Realm, with their soul’s level, they were unable to spread their soul’s power out from their body at all.“This Divine Realm is a bit strange. I feel that I am unable to even fly here.” Hou Fei nodded. “However, with big brother’s strength, there is definitely not going to be any problem.”“The two of you.” The little squadron captain from the Divine Realm, Huang Xu, lightly smiled as he looked to Hou Fei and Hei Yu. “Stop muttering over there. Let me ask you, were the two of you body cultivators in the lower realm?”“Body cultivators?” Hou Fei and Hei Yu were slightly startled.“You can say that.” Laughed Hou Fei.As a ‘Fiery Eyed Water Ape,’ his body was extremely valiant to begin with. Although he did not especially train his body, Hou Fei’s current body was still comparable to that of the eighth stage of the Nine Steps Dark Gold Body. As for Hei Yu… in terms of his body’s toughness, he was equally matched with Qin Yu.“It’s good to be body cultivators. You’ll be able to take the first mountain pass of the Divine Realm, the piercing through of the Divine Energy, a lot easier.” Laughed Huang Xu.Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked to Huang Xu before them. They both felt that the person standing in front of them was too powerful. He was so powerful that the two of them were unable to resist him at all. The two of them believed that if the man before them wanted to kill them, he would be able to do that easily.“The sensation this man gives me is more or less like the one that big brother gives me.” Both Hou Fei and Hei Yu had this feeling in their heart.“Since the two of you have ascended to the Divine Realm, you naturally will have to abide by the rules of our Divine Realm. However, the two of you don’t need to worry yourselves. These two male and female ascenders, still have to stabilize their bodies. As for the two of you, your bodies were strong enough to begin with, so there is no need for you to spend this effort.” Said Huang Xu while smiling.That beautiful female soldier Liu Fei frowned as she looked to the man within the Ascension Pond that was still receiving the piercing of the Divine Energy. “The two of you, do you know that man?” Asked the beautiful female soldier to Hou Fei and Hei Yu.Hou Fei nodded. “That is our big brother.”“Big brother? The three of you are brothers?” A pleasant smile appeared on Liu Fei’s face. “Truly rare. Three brothers actually ascended to the Divine Realm together. It would seem that you are brought brother together by fate.”“Is my big brother going to be okay?” Hei Yu asked.A soldier that seemed to be thin and weak said while beaming with smiles. “He’s fine…. I have never heard of people ascending to the Divine Realm and dying in the Ascension Pond.”Only then did Hou Fei and Hei Yu heave a sigh of relief.“Divine Energy piercing through the body?”Qin Yu was able to clearly hear the conversation of the people not far away from him. This Divine Energy piercing through the body actually did not affect him at all. The reason why others were in pain was because of the struggle between their body’s original energy with the Divine Energy.Once the Divine Energy entered into the body, it would exterminate all of the previous energy within the body and then reside within the body and gather within the dantian area.However, what about Qin Yu?He had directly hidden the Nine Steps Force and the Gold Force inside his Stellar Space. Without any energy obstructing the Divine Energy, it effortlessly flowed through Qin Yu’s body. Thus, Qin Yu naturally would not be in pain.Others had spent an hour. However, Qin Yu had spent six entire hours now accepting the Divine Energy into his body. Yet, Qin Yu was still absorbing even more Divine Energy into his body….“Mn?”At a certain moment, Qin Yu suddenly sensed that the Divine Energy that was flowing within his body actually brought about a very large repressive sensation. Qin Yu had a feeling that if he were to continue to absorb Divine Energy, his body would break apart.“Huff!” The ray of Divine Energy that had been unceasingly piercing into Qin Yu’s body had voluntarily severed itself.Qin Yu’s body was also pushed away by the Ascension Pond. Involuntarily, he had arrived on the shore beside the Ascension Pond.“This Divine Realm is truly unusual.” Once he reached the shore, Qin Yu sensed a binding from the Divine Realm. This extremely steady space had brought Qin Yu a lot of suppression.“Big brother.” Hou Fei and Hei Yu both walked over to Qin Yu.“It’s actually hard to teleport.” Qin Yu muttered and gasped.“Haha, teleport?” That little squadron captain Huang Xu started to laugh out loud. “Ascender, although teleportation might be extremely common in the lower realms, in the Divine Realm… even the high and above High Level Heavenly Deities can forget about even imagining being able to teleport.”Upon hearing the words that Huang Xu had said, Qin Yu was unable to conceal his surprise and looked at him.At this moment, the ten soldiers, including that little squadron captain Huang Xu, all stared at Qin Yu.“You are the most powerful among the five that have ascended today. Furthermore, you’re so powerful that even we were surprised…. if my guess is correct. Your body is extremely valiant. Furthermore, your soul is also extremely high level, it has reached the Mid Level Deity stage, right?” That Huang Xu smiled as he looked to Qin Yu.However, Huang Xu was thinking in his heart. “That much Divine Energy. If one were to absorb them with Divine Spiritual Stones, then how many Divine Spiritual Stones would that take? That kid is truly lucky. He managed to absorb that much Divine Energy for free.”Qin Yu was puzzled.Mid Level Deity? Last time when he was with Jiang Yan, Jiang Yan’s soul was at the peak High Level Deity level whereas Qin Yu’s soul was at the Peak Mid Level Deity Level. Merely, through the assistance of his Meteoric Tear, he managed to barely reach the baseline of the Low Level Heavenly Deity Level.“Truly rare. For one to be able to cultivate one’s soul to this level, it is truly rare.” Said Huang Xu while smiling. “If one were to train in the Divine Realm, even if one does not have any other misgivings and wholeheartedly trained… it would still require several tens of years at the minimum to reach the Mid Level Deity level soul. You’ve already reached the Deity level the moment you entered the Divine Realm, amazing.”To have a Mid Level Deity level soul the moment one ascended to the Divine Realm, this was something that was extremely rare in the history of the Divine Realm.Huang Xu suddenly glanced at the man and female, the two of them had finally managed to stabilize their bodies and stood up. Huang Xu nodded and said. “Good, since all of you have accepted the Divine Energy piercing through your bodies and have also stabilized your bodies, then, as the person in charge of you all after you’ve ascended to the Divine Realm, I shall tell you all some of the basic information regarding the Divine Realm.”Qin Yu, Hou Fei, Hei Yu, as well as that man and woman, the five ascenders all looked to Huang Xu.“According to the convention of the Divine Realm, all those that have just ascended to the Divine Realm are obligated to go to the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine and mine for His Majesty the Sage Emperor free of charge for a thousand years. During these thousand years, you all must not resist, try to flee and so on… Anyone who resists will be chased and killed by the entire Divine Realm.”That squadron captain Huang Xu had an extremely serious expression. “As for the basic information regarding the Divine Realm, I will let you all know about them en route to the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine. Well then, let’s set off now!”
Chapter 493 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 2 – Such is the Divine RealmTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinMine for a thousand years? Furthermore, for free?Qin Yu, Hou Fei, Hei Yu as well as that male and female, all five of their expressions had changed. However, the five of them did not have any drastic reactions. All of them could still be considered as being calm.“Very good. These ascenders that have trained bitterly step by step to finally reach the Divine Realm, they are much more calm than those who have grown up in the Divine Realm.” Huang Xu smiled and said. “I had thought that I would have to teach you guys a lesson too.”Huang Xu looked to a simple and honest looking soldier behind him. He said. “Third, according to the rules, I will bring four people with me to deliver these people to the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine. You continue to stay here. It might be possible for there to be more ascenders coming later.”“Yes, captain.” Nodded that simple and honest looking soldier.Soon after, Huang Xu selected four soldiers to go with him. Of these four soldiers, two were male and two were female. That most beautiful woman Liu Fei was one of them. This had caused the five that remained to mumble in a low voice.The five soldiers, with Huang Xu as the leader, led Qin Yu and the other four ascenders to the road to the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine.The five Divine Realm soldiers and the five ascenders continued to proceed onward.“Liu Fei, tell them a bit about the basic things of the Divine Realm.” Huang Xu casually ordered.Liu Fei nodded. She then turned to Qin Yu and them and said. “Compared to the Divine Realm, the original cosmic space that you all came from had almost no restrictions. All of you, carefully listen to what I am about to tell you. Otherwise, if you were to make a joke out of yourself in the future, you cannot blame me for that.”The five ascenders nodded.“The Divine Realm can be considered as an extremely vast land.” Said Liu Fei with a smile.The five ascenders all started to frown. From their memories, regardless of whether it was the Mortal Realm or the higher level cosmic space like the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, they were all boundless outer space. So how come this Divine Realm was a land?QIn Yu and his brothers were pretending to be confused whereas the other two people were truly confused.“The reason why I said the Divine Realm could be considered as an extremely vast land, is because surrounding this land is an almost endless ocean. As for exactly how vast this ocean is, not many people know. Perhaps Godkings know about it.” Said Liu Fei with a smile.“Although the ocean is extremely vast, ninety nine percent of the Divine Realm’s people live on the land. The ocean can practically be completely neglected. That’s why I said that the Divine Realm could be considered an enormous land.” Liu Fei continued.Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu actually already understood a bit about the general circumstances in the Divine Realm. They were all things that they managed to learn back in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm when Qin Yu asked Uncle Fu.“The Eight Great Powers of the Divine Realm are also all located on the land of the Divine Realm.” Liu Fei spoke frankly with assurance.Dissatisfied, Huang Xu said. “Liu Fei, they do not need to know about these things. It’s better for me explain to them.” Huang Xu took a glance at Qin Yu and them. “Listen carefully, the space in the Divine Realm is extremely stable. At the same time, the restriction brought about by its space is extremely large. I suspect you all have managed to feel it too… in here, it’s impossible for you all to even fly.”Qin Yu and the other four all nodded.Even Qin Yu himself was unable to fly.“I can tell you all. In the Divine Realm, you are only capable of flying after becoming a Low Level Heavenly Deity.”“Senior, how many different levels are the experts in the Divine Realm separated into?” The female ascender from the male and female ascenders not far from away from Qin Yu asked.Huang Xu said indifferently. “The experts of the Divine Realm are primarily divided into: Low Level Deity, Mid Level Deity, High Level Deity, Low Level Heavenly Deity, Mid Level Heavenly Deity, High Level Heavenly Deity and the even higher level Godkings! Of course… legend has it that above the Godkings, are the Exalted Celestials.”“We are only Low Level Deities right now, when would we be able to achieve a breakthrough?” That female ascender asked again.Huang Xu shook his head and laughed. “Low Level Deity? Haha… you all cannot even be considered as Low Level Deity right now. At the very most, you are ‘in the process of becoming a Deity.’”“In the process of becoming a Deity, why is that?” Qin Yu and the other four all looked at Huang Xu.“It’s very simple. Low Level Deity, not only must the energy within their body be Divine Energy, their soul must also reach the Golden Soul Pellet stage. As for you all… other than this person, the other four of you, none of your souls have formed a Golden Soul Pellet.” Said Huang Xu as he pointed to Qin Yu.Immediately, that male and female looked to Qin Yu.“Stop looking at him, even if you possessed a sufficient number of Divine Spiritual Stones, it would still require you at least several tens of millions of years to reach his level.” Said Huang Xu coldly. “However, all of your souls are close to the stage of consummation. There is also no need for you all to worry about your soul forming the Golden Soul Pellet.”Qin Yu listened and nodded in his mind.The soul’s level was the hardest to improve.“After spending a countless number of years, it is possible for you all to become a High Level Deity. However, to become a Low Level Heavenly Deity from a High Level Deity…that is truly hard. Among millions of Deities, perhaps only one would be able to become a Low Level Heavenly Deity.” Sighed Huang Xu.Qin Yu’s pupils shrunk.There is only a single Heavenly Deity among millions of Deities? It seemed that this Heavenly Deity level was extremely hard to reach.“After reaching the Low Level Heavenly Deity, each and every step forward becomes extremely hard. As for High Level Heavenly Deities… they can all be considered as people who possess immense power in the Divine Realm. As for the High Level Heavenly Deity to the Godking level, haha, Godking, if anyone of you manages to become a Godking in the future, I, Huang Xu would also be qualified to brag to others about it.” Huang Xu started laughing out loud.Godking? The Divine Realm has already not had a new Godking for a very long time.“Remember, a Low Level Deity’s Divine Awareness is incapable of leaving the body. The Mid Level Deity’s Divine Awareness can leave about ten meters distance away from their body. As for High Level Deities, their Divine Awareness can leave about a hundred meters away from their body. The increase is more or less like this. As for the Heavenly Deities, I am not very sure about it myself.” Said Huang Xu with a light smile.Qin Yu nodded in his heart.He had actually tried to spread his Divine Awareness out from his body earlier. However, even with the amplification from the Meteoric Tear, he was only able to spread his Divine Awareness out several hundred meters away from his body.“The distance that which Divine Awareness leaves your body that I mentioned earlier was merely that of which the Divine Awareness could penetrate through the air. The materials in the Divine Awareness was very strange. It might be related to the Divine Spiritual Energy but even if one were a High Level Deity, his Divine Awareness would still be incapable of penetrating through the land, trees, sea water and other matters of nature.” Explained Huang Xu carefully.Qin Yu and the others all had surprised looks on their faces.“Indeed.” Qin Yu tried to use his Divine Awareness to penetrate through the land. However, even with the assistance from the Meteoric Tear, he was only barely able to penetrate a foot’s distance. It must be borne in mind, that due to Qin Yu having the assistance of the Meteoric Tear, his Divine Awareness had already reached the baseline of the Low Level Heavenly Deity Level.“You all, look at those stones by the roadside. If you all tried to break open those stones, it would simply be impossible. As for me, I would be able to easily cut it open with this battle blade.” As Huang Xu said that, he split a stone by the roadside with a single slash of his blade.Hei Yu suddenly said. “Senior, how powerful is that weapon of yours?”“This battle blade of mine?” Huang Xu raised the battle blade in his hand. He smiled and said. “Although it is only a Mid Quality Divine Artifact, I am still capable of using it to hack you in two with a single strike.”“Mn?” Qin Yu frowned.Hei Yu’s ‘Black Feather Battle Armor’ was as tough as a High Quality Divine Artifact.“I can tell that your body cultivation is pretty good. Unfortunately, in the cosmic spaces below, no matter how hard you trained your body, you can only, at the very most, reach the toughness of a Mid Level Deity.” Said Huang Xu with a light smile. “The reason why Divine Artifacts are called Divine Artifacts, is because of the fact that Divine Energy needs to be poured into it to truly display its might.”“Using a Low Quality Divine Artifact that has Divine Energy poured into it can cut through a High Level Divine Artifact that doesn’t have Divine Energy poured into it.” Huang Xu explained.Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu were all shocked.Although Uncle Fu had once said that a Divine Artifacts would become even more powerful once Divine Energy was poured into it, Qin Yu did not pay much attention to it. However, who would’ve thought that once Divine Energy was poured in, the might of the Divine Artifacts would actually increase that much.As they continued walking, Qin Yu and the other four managed to learn a lot of things.Flying was the sign of reaching Heavenly Deity level. Teleportation was something that was impossible to be done. As for Divine Awareness… it was truly too hard to spread out one’s Divine Awareness. Furthermore, in the Divine Realm, there are no such things as Transmission Spiritual Pearl or similar items at all.In the Divine Realm, if one wanted to transmit information, it could only be done via man power.It could be said that a space of extreme stability like the Divine Realm was much like the Hidden Dragon Continent that Qin Yu lived on when he was younger.“That stone by the side of the road is over a hundred times heavier than a tall mountain in your previous lesser realm’s space.” Huang Xu pointed to a roadside stone. “In short, all the matter in the Divine Realm: mountains, trees, and even demonic beasts and so on is different from that of the lower realms.”Huang Xu smiled and said. “Well then, I’ll have Liu Fei tell you guys about the computation of time in here.”Liu Fei nodded.“In the Divine Realm, there is day and night. The day time is twelve hours and the night time is also twelve hours. There are twenty four hours in a day. As for a year, there are three hundred and sixty days in a year, which just happens to be the number of days in a Heavenly Cycle.”[TL: 周天 → Heavenly Cycle. It’s some sort of time thing in daoism that I have no clue about. You read them pretty often in eastern fantasies and xianxia novels. There’s the large heavenly cycle and the small heavenly cycle. They have something to do with chi transferring through the body.]Once Liu Fei said those words, Qin Yu was unable to refrain from being surprised.The method which the Divine Realm used to calculate its time was extremely similar to that of the Hidden Dragon Continent.“How come the Divine Realm possesses day and night?” Qin Yu asked.Seeing that Qin Yu asked, Liu Fei lightly smiled to Qin Yu. Clearly, Qin Yu’s strength had won a favorable impression from Liu Fei.Liu Fei pointed to the south and then pointed to the north. “There are a total of Eight Great Sage Emperors in the Divine Realm. Of which, the Utmost South Sage Emperor’s Light Lens City radiates the ‘Light of Daytime’ for twelve hours every day. As for the Utmost North Sage Emperor’s Floating Snow City, every day it radiates the ‘Dark Curtain of Night’ for twelve hours. The Light of Daytime and the Dark Curtain of Night just so happens to be on at different times. Once the Light of Daytime is emitted, the entire Divine Realm would be radiated with light. Once the Dark Curtain of Night is emitted, the entire Divine Realm becomes covered with darkness.”Qin Yu lightly nodded. However, he was still pretty surprised in his heart.“There is another thing that I believe you all have discovered too. The Divine Spiritual Energy of the Divine Realm is extremely violent.” Liu Fei said with a smile. “The violent Divine Spiritual Energy is not something that can be absorbed and used to train with.”Qin Yu and the other four were stunned.Uncle Fu did not mention such a thing to Qin Yu before. That was because Uncle Fu believed that since the Bewitching God Temple possessed a large amount of Divine Spiritual Stones and even Divine Spiritual Crystal Essence, he did not care much about the Divine Spiritual Energy.“Earlier when I tried to absorb it, I didn’t manage to succeed. And here I thought that my cultivation method was incorrect.” Said Hou Fei.Liu Fei shook her head and said while smiling. “In the Divine Realm, only the Divine Spiritual Energy within the cities are tranquil. One can only absorb Divine Spiritual Energy and train when one’s in a city. As for outside of the cities, those areas close to the cities are slightly better off. However, the further away from the cities, the more violent the Divine Spiritual Energy becomes. When one reaches a desolate area outside of the cities, it is simply impossible for one to absorb Divine Spiritual Energy.”“Why is the Divine Spiritual Energy within the cities tranquil?” Qin Yu asked.Liu Fei shook her head and said. “All I know is that the Extreme East Sage Emperor has sixty four cities underneath him. In all these years, there has never been a new city nor has there been a city removed. The Divine Spiritual Energy within those cities is completely tranquil and the Divine Spiritual Energy outside of those cities is slightly worse. However, the further away from those cities, the more violent and chaotic the Divine Spiritual Energy becomes. It might be that these sixty four cities possess some sort of special reason for it to have tranquil Divine Spiritual Energy.”Qin Yu had some speculations in his heart.Clearly, the constructions of the cities in the Divine Realm were not merely made through using stones. There might be some special methods.“Thus, when one trains in the Divine Realm, the most important aspect is the Divine Spiritual Stones. The Divine Spiritual Stones are also the currency of the entire Divine Realm. Only through having Divine Spiritual Stones will you be able to train at ease. Of course, the Divine Spiritual Energy within the cities are tranquil and one can absorb them to train. However, in order to enter those cities to train.. sigh….” Liu Fei shook her head and smiled.At this moment, the little squadron captain Huang Xu turned around. He said to Qin Yu and them. “In the Divine Realm, one must pay in order to enter the cities. Furthermore, once night time arrives, no pedestrians are allowed to be in the cities. Thus, unless you spend Divine Spiritual Stones to live in an inn, you’ll be forced to depart from the city.”“The number of people in the Divine Realm is extremely high. However, the number of cities is extremely small. For example, our Yuchi City, there are a total of close to twenty million people in the Yuchi City. However, the number of Deities that live outside the Yuchi City is instead over two hundred million! It is not that they do not wish to enter the city, but rather that they cannot afford to live there because even the cheapest house in the city costs two million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones!”Huang Xu shook his head and said. “I have assumed the role of the little squadron captain for all these years, have trained for such a long time and saved my money the entire time. Yet, only recently did I manage to purchase a house in the Yuchi City.”“Sigh, it’s hard to purchase a house.” Huang Xu sighed.The other two males and two females, the four soldiers, also nodded in approval.“A single house costs two million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. Earning that many Divine Spiritual Stones is truly too hard.” Each and every one of those soldiers started to sigh. That Liu Fei also sighed and said. “I suspect It’ll take me several millions of years to save up such an amount.”Qin Yu and his brothers looked to each other.Two million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones? Was that a lot?A single Divine Spiritual Crystal Essence equates to a hundred Top Quality Divine Spiritual Stones which equate to ten thousand High Quality Divine Spiritual Stones which in term equate to a million Mid Quality Divine Spiritual Stones which then equate to a hundred million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones.As for the Bewitching God Temple, it possessed quite many Divine Spiritual Crystal Essences and a large pile of Top Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. Two million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones was nothing but mere trifle.However, Qin Yu and his brothers have forgotten…. What sort of person was the ‘Craftsman God’ Chehou Yuan?He was the number one artifact craftsman of the Divine Realm!Even Godkings have to treat him with courtesy and personally come to ask him to refine or create artifacts for them. He was a super amazing person. In terms of the number of treasures he possessed… he could even purchase the entire Yuchi City and still have money to spare.For Uncle Fu to not care about these sort of things and not mention them to Qin Yu was also reasonable.After about sixteen hours of walking, on the second day when the Light of Daytime arrived, Qin Yu and them reached their destination… the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine.
Chapter 494 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 3 – Uncle Fu’s Storage RingTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinPeople come and go. From a glance, this Divine Spiritual Stone Mine was densely packed with people. Merely the people walking outside the mine were already in the several tens of thousands. Who knows how many more might be inside the mine digging out Divine Spiritual Stones?“So lively. There’s so many ascenders?” Seeing how lively it was, Hou Fei was unable to refrain his excitement.Huang Xu frowned. He said coldly. “Behave yourself. If you were to provoke any big shot here and get killed as an effect, you can’t blame anyone other than yourself.”Hou Fei’s brows immediately started to shiver. He was overflowing with anger. However, he still restrained himself.“Of the miners here, only a small portion of them are ascenders. The majority of them are Deities that have come here voluntarily.” Huang Xu then started to answer the question that Hou Fei presented earlier. “In the Divine Realm, it is extremely hard for one to live comfortably. There are three ways, either you are very strong, in possession of a very good amount of courage and insight or originate from a very powerful background. If you possess neither of these, like the majority of the people, then you could only rely on yourself.”“Mining here, those people would possess the same salary as the ascenders.” Huang Xu pointed to the people in the distant mining.“Salary of ascenders?” Qin Yu frowned.Not long after, Huang Xu and them proceed to bring Qin Yu and them to a place.“Qin Yu, Hou Fei, Hei Yu, Song Hui, Shi Tian.”A serious looking female said in a cold voice. “The five of you, listen carefully. From today on, you five shall be workers of this Divine Spiritual Stone Mine affiliated with the Yuchi City.”“Your mission is to deliver Divine Spiritual Stones once per year. Every time you deliver the Divine Spiritual Stones, you are to deliver three thousand six hundred Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. You are to do this every year. If you were to deliver less than the amount for a certain year, you are to make up for it the next year. If the second year wasn’t enough, then you are to make up for it the third year! If after a thousand years, you still did not finish your mission, then you all are to continue to mine. Furthermore, during the days of mining, you all are not allowed to hide away the Divine Spiritual Stones. Against the search of experts, unless you all possess storage Divine Artifacts, it would be impossible for you to conceal the Divine Spiritual Stones.”Saying this here, that woman started to display a smile.Storage Divine Artifact, merely by the fact that there had not been a single Storage Divine Artifact being discovered in all those years in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, one could tell how precious the Storage Divine Artifacts are. Using a Storage Divine Artifact to steal some Divine Spiritual Stones?Who would be that senseless?“Well then, this is the key for the your rooms that you all shall live in. You all can leave your Divine Spiritual Stones in the room. Other than those who possess the key, no other people would be able to open the room. Well then… you all can go and mine now. Remember, you must come and deliver the goods once per year. If you were to resist, then your ‘Identity Title Plate’ shall be destroyed.”Qin Yu and the other four all nodded. Each and every one of them took a hexagonal key from the woman.After Qin Yu and his brothers separated from the couple Song Hui and Shi Tian, they did not go back to their residence at all.“Big brother, this Divine Realm seems to be pretty boring.” Said Hou Fei with his lips curled up.Boring?“No, it’s very interesting.” Qin Yu was filled with vitality. He looked to the surroundings. “Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, according to what I know, this Divine Realm is a lot more complicated than what you two are imagining it to be.”And right at this moment…“Heavenly Deity!”Qin Yu and his brothers all looked to the sky.They saw a middle aged man with a resolute and grim appearance flying past the sky. That man would even occasionally look to the ground. However, his disdainful look as if he was standing above everyone else have instead brought an oppressive sensation to everyone below.Flying! This was the mark of a Heavenly Deity.“The three of you ought to have just arrived, right? That person over there is the supervisor of this Divine Spiritual Stone Mine, Lord Yuchi Yang. Lord Yuchi Yang is a person from the most revered family of the Yuchi City, the Yuchi Clan.”A youngster beside Qin Yu and them walked over while smiling.Qin Yu slightly nodded.As for Qin Yu, he also had a longing in his heart. The longing to fly. Regardless of whether it was the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm or the Mortal Realm, Qin Yu was capable of flying high up in the sky. However, who would’ve known that things would be that troublesome in the Divine Realm.“This Divine Realm is truly peculiar. Only through controlling the space to offset the gravity of the ground would one be able to fly. This requires one to possess a comprehension of the spatial laws of the Low Level Heavenly Deity level.” Qin Yu gasped in his heart.Soon after, Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu entered into a mine cave.Dark and cold. Qin Yu and his brothers felt a strange sensation after entering the mine cave. This Divine Spiritual Stone Mine was extremely vast. It possessed an circumference of no less than a hundred miles. There were mine caves on the ground which were extremely criss-crossed. After turning left and right, Qin Yu and his brothers had managed to reach the deepest place of the mine cave.“Big brother, what should we do now?” Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked at Qin Yu.Qin Yu lightly smiled and said. “Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, the two of you have also heard what those people said earlier. I also know a bit more that I have yet to tell you two. Come, I’ll have Uncle Fu tell you two.”With an intention from Qin Yu, the three brothers disappeared.Inside Jiang Lan’s Realm’s second layer space.Qin Yu and his brothers appeared on a piece of meadows. Qin Yu pointed to the ground and then a stone table and four stone chairs appeared on the meadows. Qin Yu and his brothers casually sat down on the chairs. As for Uncle Fu, he had also came here following Qin Yu’s intention.“Uncle Fu.” Qin Yu lightly smiled.Uncle Fu saluted respectfully. “Master, is there something you need me for?”“Come sit down, tell these two brothers of mine the cruelness of the Divine Realm.” Said Qin Yu with a light smile.Uncle Fu nodded. He sat down following the orders. Qin Yu and his brothers had even toasted cups of wine and started drinking carefreely.“The cruelness of the Divine Realm, first the environment is cruel. At locations far from the cities, the Divine Spiritual Energy is extremely violent and simply cannot be absorbed to train. Furthermore, in those uninhabited regions, the demon beasts of the Divine Realm would run amok. Although the demon beasts of the Divine Realm possess weak soul cultivation which is inferior to even Low Level Deities, their attack power is relatively strong. For example, Wu Lan!” Said Uncle Fu with a smile.With an intention from Qin Yu, Wu Lan appeared.Wu Lan had a face filled with confusion.Uncle Fu pointed to Wu Lan and said. “Wu Lan, his true form is that of the ruler within the Divine Realm’s Ant Clan, ‘Blackstain Ant.’ If master were to not use the Divine Spear Waning Snow, then it would be very hard for you to defeat Wu Lan.”“Blackstain Ant?” Qin Yu looked to Wu Lan with shock.Wu Lan looked to Uncle Fu with a confused expression. “Who are you? How come you know my true form? I have seen you before in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm but was unable to recognize who you are.”“You’ve already become unable to recognize me after I merely changed my appearance a bit?” Uncle Fu smiled lightly.Uncle Fu’s appearance slightly changed. His back became a bit straighter. At the same time, the clothes on his body had also changed. It turned into a jade colored gown with golden borders. On the gown was the word ‘Bewitching.’“Bewitching God Temple’s housekeeper?” Wu Lan’s eyes were wide open. Only now did he manage to recognize with shock that the man before him was the housekeeper of the bewitching God Temple. Wu Lan was unable to refrain from looking at Qin Yu with an unbelieving expression.Qin Yu merely smiled.Qin Yu had only told Hou Fei and Hei Yu of the matter of him becoming the master of the Bewitching God Temple. He had not told anyone else.“The Blackstain Ant’s defense is extremely exceptional. Its strength is also very powerful. Once they pass the tribulation and took on a human form, their strength is comparable to that of a High Level Deity.” Said Uncle Fu frankly with assurance. “The Blackstain Ant is the ruler of the Ant Clan. Their strongest aspect is… their ability to control the innumerable amount of Divine Realm’s ant beasts. To offend a Blackstain Ant is an extremely frightening thing. That is because he is capable of creating an Ant Swarm!”Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu all looked at Wu Lan in shock.Wu Lan smiled bitterly, shook his head and said. “What ruler of ants. Completely useless. For Low Level Heavenly Deity, I am able to control a large number of my subordinates to attack. However, when I encountered a Mid Level Heavenly Deity, I was still obediently captured and then gifted to the master of the Bewitching God Temple.”Uncle Fu smiled. He then continued. “Wu Lan is classified as a powerful Divine Realm’s demon beast. The demon beasts of the Divine Realm are also separated into those that are strong and those that are weak. For the weak demon beasts, a Low Level Deity would be able to easily exterminate them. For the strong demon beasts, even a Low Level Heavenly Deity would have to spend a large amount of energy to exterminate them. However, even the strongest demon beast is only capable of fighting against a Low Level Heavenly Deity. After all, when relying merely on strength and numbers, they are useless against the Heavenly Deities who could control the spatial laws.”Qin Yu and his brothers nodded.Uncle Fu continued. “Hou Fei, Hei Yu, the two of you ought to be able to understand the dangers of the uninhabited areas of the Divine Realm. In those uninhabited areas, other than the dangers from the demon beasts, there are also those vicious and merciless Deities who love to kill others to rob their belongings.”Uncle Fu lightly smiled. “The Divine Realm is a world of extremely cruel competition. In this world, if you do not have strength and power, then you’ll be at the lowest rung of the society. If you possess strength and power, then you’ll be able to safely live inside the city. If you have even more strength and power and become a Heavenly Deity level expert… Haha, at that time, regardless of whichever city you arrive at, you would not require to show your Identity Title Plate or pay any taxes.”“In the Divine Realm, the Deity stage is the stage of the weak whereas the Heavenly Deity stage is the stage of the strong. Only after one becomes a Heavenly Deity would one be qualified to wander the dangerous and uninhabited regions of the Divine Realm to search for Grandmist Spiritual Treasures or precious medicinal herbs and materials.”Said Uncle Fu as he smiled.“Back then, the old master would travel tens of millions of miles and cross mountains in order to find all kinds of precious materials. He then created the numerous exceptional Heavenly Divine Artifacts and even Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. His accomplishment and fame spread throughout the Divine Realm. Even the Godkings would have to personally come and request my old master to help them create artifacts… in the entire Divine Realm, other than the legendary Exalted Celestial, even Godkings could forget about making my old master bow to them.”Said Uncle Fu confidently.Qin Yu’s eyes shined.“Good! Traveling tens of millions of miles in order to wander the uninhabited and chaotic regions.” Qin Yu’s fighting spirit was burning. “However, in order to travel the tens of millions of miles long journey, I must still take the first step.”“Uncle Fu, are you certain that your speculation of Li’er and Uncle Lan from back then was correct?” Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu.Uncle Fu said confidently. “Seeing this Jiang Lan’s Realm that is even able to control the proportions of time, that person who created the Jiang Lan’s Realm was definitely a Godking. Furthermore, he also has a certain level of comprehension toward the temporal laws. These sort of people, there are only that many in the Divine Realm…. thus, master’s Uncle Lan was a person of revered status was something that’s completely obvious. For even him to be unable to settle the things for you and Jiang Li, it clearly showed that Li’er’s family is extremely powerful. Thus, her family ought to be one of the Eight Great Families.”Qin Yu lightly nodded his head. He agreed with Uncle Fu’s speculation.“Master, you can rest assured. As long as you reach the level of artifact craftsmanship at the old master’s level and become the number one artifact craftsman in the entire Divine Realm, even the Eight Great Sage Emperors would also rush to you to insist on marrying their daughters off to you.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile. “Back then, quite many Godkings have gifted their daughters to the old master. Unfortunately, old master was infatuated with only artifact refinement and creation. His lifelong goal was to create a Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure. Other than that, he simply did not have the mindset to be placed in love and whatnot.”Qin Yu slightly nodded.“It is also extremely difficult to become an artifact craftsman expert. However, the more difficult it is, the more enthusiasm I have for it. Back then, I was merely a kid that was unable to even train in the Internal Techniques. Yet, even that kid was able to reach this current stage. What else would be impossible?” Qin Yu’s eyes shined.Hou Fei, Hei Yu and Wu Lan all looked at Qin Yu.“In order to become an expert artifact craftsman, the most important aspect was knowing formation techniques and barriers. Good… in the thousand years that I will be in this mine, I shall be in the Jiang Lan’s Realm’s second layer space and train in the ‘Array Path.’ A thousand years outside means that I would have a hundred thousand years in the Jiang Lan’s Realm.” Said Qin Yu.“Uncle Fu.” Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu. “Do you have any Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones? Every thousand years, we must hand over three thousand six hundred Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. If you can help me with that, I would not need to waste time on digging them in the outside world.”Uncle Fu was startled. “Low Quality? Low Quality?”Uncle Fu said that twice.“What’s wrong?” Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu in confusion. “Could it be that there aren’t any in the Bewitching God Temple?” As he said that, Qin Yu proceed to use his awareness to search the entire Bewitching God Temple. As the master of the Bewitching God Temple, it was extremely easy for him to inspect the Bewitching God Temple.Suddenly, Qin Yu’s eyes were open wide and round like a ball.In the Artifacts Palace where the Divine Spiritual Stones are kept, there were a lot of Divine Spiritual Crystal Essence, an extremely large amount of Top Quality Elemental Spirit Stones and some High Level Divine Spiritual Stones. However, there was not a single Mid Level Divine Spiritual Stone. Much less a Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stone.Qin Yu suddenly realized.“Senior Chehou has truly neglected me.” Qin Yu smiled bitterly. “He possessed too many treasures that he actually didn’t even bother to store the most basic Low Quality and Mid Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. Could it be that I am to bring the High Quality Divine Spiritual Stones to pay the obligation? While it might be fine once, but if I were to do it twice or three times, how would other not suspect me?”As long as the person has half a brain, they would grow suspicious.The Divine Elemental Stones that were mined from this mine were mostly Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. Only occasionally would a Mid Quality Divine Spiritual Stone appear. For a High Quality Divine Spiritual Stone to appear was extremely unlikely. As for Top Quality Divine Spiritual Stone? From the entire time of the existence of this mine, only a single Top Quality Divine Spiritual Stone has appeared.If Qin Yu were to use Top Quality Divine Spiritual Stones to pay his dues every single time, how would others possibly not be suspicious?“Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stone, Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stone… “ Uncle Fu mumbled a couple times. Suddenly, Uncle Fu patted his head and said. “Ah, I remember now.”Uncle Fu waved his sleeve. Suddenly a mountain appeared on the meadows before Qin Yu and them. It was a mountain of things gathered together in a mess.“That is?…” Qin Yu and them looked to that ‘mountain’ in surprise.Uncle Fu laughed and said. “When I am bored, I would usually research formation arrays and barriers. When researching formation arrays and barriers, I am required to use crystal stones to set up the formation arrays and barriers to conduct experiments. I didn’t wish to use High Quality Divine Spiritual Stones to set up formation arrays and barriers due to their expensiveness. As I am merely conducting experiments, why should I go and use the good Divine Spiritual Stones? Thus, back then, I had exchanged for a large amount of Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. Using Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones to set up formation arrays and barriers to experiment with, that I do not feel pained when doing.”“In this pile of stuff, other than Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones, there are also many common crystal stones of all different kinds of attributes. These are merely a portion of them. There are a lot more in my Storage Divine Artifact Ring.” Uncle Fu rubbed his ring as he smiled and said those words.Qin Yu looked to Uncle Fu’s ring. The more he looked to it the more happy be became.“Haha… good, Uncle Fu, from today on, I shall wholeheartedly research those nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’ Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, the two of you can concentrate on training. Uncle Fu, please remind us every time a hundred years have passed so that we can go and deliver those three thousand six hundred pieces of Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones.” Qin Yu ordered.Mining in the mine for a thousand years. However, Qin Yu and his brothers had instead decided to train in the second layer of the Jiang Lan’s Realm for a hundred thousand years.
Chapter 495 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 4 – God Sealing PagodaTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip“Yes, master.” Uncle Fu bowed and accepted the order.Qin Yu lightly nodded. He then looked to Hou Fei and Hei Yu. “Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, your weapons. Other than the Cloud Piercing Spear and the Black Stick, do you two want more powerful weapons?”“Big brother, you have more powerful weapons?” Hou Fei’s eyes shined.With a flip of Qin Yu’s hand, a little boat appeared and started to float in the air. At the same time, a pair of transparent gloves and a very tall stone pagoda also appeared. Seeing this scene, Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu with a shocked expression. “Master, these are the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures that the old master had left for you!”“Grandmist Spiritual Treasures? The legendary Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?” Wu Lan who stood to the side said with an unbelieving expression. “Furthermore, three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?”“As they are left for me, they’re mine now. Thus, I have the authority to distribute them as I see fit.” Said Qin Yu with a smile.Ever since he obtained these three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, Qin Yu had never planned to refine all three of them himself. If he were to refine all three of them, how would his brothers be able to move about unhindered in the Divine Realm?Let alone, Qin Yu possessed the Jiang Lan’s Realm as well as Chehou Yuan’s most prided High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact Divine Spear Waning Snow. Qin Yu was not lacking in any powerful treasures.Furthermore, if one were to compare the battle power.“If one were to compare the battle power, then if one does not possess the strength of a Godking, then even if one possessed powerful treasures, it would still be impossible to be recognized by the Eight Great Sage Emperors and become Li’er husband.” Qin Yu was very certain of this.To experts at the level of Godkings, only other people that are also at the Godking level or the legendary Exalted Celestial would cause them to see them face to face.Thus, Qin Yu must focus his strength on two aspects. The first was training and the second was researching the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ and strive to reach the level of the ‘Craftsman God.’“Big brother, we cannot accept those treasures.” Said Hei Yu solemnly. Hou Fei also wanted to say something but he was instead interrupted by Qin Yu.“Do not decline so fast. Let me first introduce these three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures to you two. The first one is the Divine Craft Flying Yamen. It is a flying type Spiritual Treasure. Its speed was extremely and matchlessly fast. Once you possess it… it could be said that if you wish to flee for your life in the Divine Realm, there would not be many people that would be capable of capturing you.”Immediately, Hei Yu and Hou Fei looked to the Divine Craft Flying Yamen with blazing gazes.The Divine Spiritual Energy of the Divine Realm was extremely violent. Furthermore, the space was so stable and tenacious. Teleportation was simply an impossible to do thing in the Divine Realm. One could only teleport after reaching the Godking level and achieve complete comprehensions of the Spatial Laws.For experts of the Heavenly Deity level, all they could do was fly and not teleport.Thus, it was evident how precious a flying type Grandmist Spiritual Treasure like the Divine Craft Flying Yamen was.“The second Grandmist Spiritual Treasure is called the Snowthread Gloves. The Snowthread Gloves possesses the strongest attack power among the three. Once one manage to refine it, one’s hands would become extremely tough and durable. One would then be able to fight against others with empty hands. Furthermore, the Snowthread Gloves also possess many additional functions. One of which was its ability to increase the attack power. There are some other special abilities… it possesses the strongest attack power among the three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.”Hou Fei and Hei Yu glanced at each other. They both determined that this attack type Grandmist Spiritual Treasure was too precious.“The third Grandmist Spiritual Treasure is called the God Sealing Pagoda. The God Sealing Pagoda could be said to be… a higher level Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas! The Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas could only be considered as a toy in the Divine Realm because it could only at the most subdue Demon Emperors. However, the God Sealing Pagoda is different. Regardless of men or demon beasts, as long as they have yet to reach the Godking level then once they become unable to resist the God Sealing Pagoda and are absorbed into it, they will become the slave of the master of the God Sealing Pagoda!”Qin Yu looked at his two brothers.“These three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, the Snowthread Gloves and the Divine Craft Flying Yamen could be considered as second-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. As for this God Sealing Pagoda, it could only be considered as third-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasure… that was because it could only seal others when they are completely unable to resist the attractive force of the God Sealing Pagoda. Thus, its true usefulness was not very large. For people that are stronger than yourself, it would be extremely hard to use the God Sealing Pagoda on them.” Qin Yu explained.There was not a single thing within the God Sealing Pagoda.It was unlike the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas that Qin Yu obtained back then where there are powerful Demon Emperors and Demon Kings right after he obtained it. That was the reason why the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas seemed powerful. Had there not been a single demon beast within it and he would have to capture them all himself, how would the Ten Thousand Beasts Atlas be powerful?As for the God Sealing Pagoda, in order to imprison people or demons into it, he must at the very least defeat or seriously injure those people or demons so that they would be unable to resist the attractive force of the God Sealing Pagoda. After all, the attractive force of the God Sealing Pagoda was not very strong.The might of the attractive force of the God Sealing Pagoda was determined by how refined it was and the strength of its master.“Big brother, you keep the Snowthread Gloves.” Hou Fei and Hei Yu said.Qin Yu smiled and shook his head. “The Snowthread Gloves could be considered as a second-rated Spiritual Treasure. As for the High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact, the Divine Spear Waning Snow that I possessed, its strength was also about that of a second-rated Spiritual Treasure. You must remember that Waning Snow is His Lordship the Craftsman God’s most prided High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact.”If something does not contain Grandmist Spiritual Energy, then it is not a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.Originally, a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts would possess the strength of a third-rated Spiritual Treasure. However, Qin Yu’s Waning Snow was a tier stronger than ordinary High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifacts. However, Heavenly Divine Artifacts are only separated into three tiers. Thus, it could only be summarized as being a High Quality Heavenly Divine Artifact.Without using Grandmist Spiritual Energy yet was able to refine and create such a powerful weapon that was comparable to a second-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, that was also the reason why Chehou Yuan had determined the Divine Spear Waning Snow as his most prided weapon.“Master…” Uncle Fu grew impatient.“Uncle Fu.” Qin Yu frowned. Uncle Fu could only resist himself.Qin Yu also knew about what Uncle Fu wanted to tell him.This Snowthread Gloves was actually extremely compatible with the Divine Spear Waning Snow. Wearing the Snowthread Gloves and then using the Divine Spear Waning Snow to attack, one’s attack strength would increase by several times. If using the two together, then their might would not be far away from a first-rated Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.However, Qin Yu didn’t want to say it or let his brothers know about it.“Mn, in that case big brother you should take the Divine Craft Flying Yamen.” Said Hei Yu.Among the three Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, the Snowthread Gloves and the Divine Craft Flying Yamen was comparatively better whereas the God Sealing Pagoda was relatively useless. After all, there was not a single thing inside the God Sealing Pagoda. If one wanted experts, one must personally go defeat and capture them.“Divine Craft Flying Yamen? I possess the Jiang Lan’s Realm, it’s even easier for me to use that to flee.” Said Qin Yu with a smile.Hei Yu was startled.Compared to the Jiang Lan’s Realm, the Divine Craft Flying Yamen’s ability to save one’s life was indeed inferior.“Haha, it’s better that I tell you all myself. This God Sealing Pagoda shall be mine. Fei Fei’s agility and speed is inferior to Xiao Hei. Fei Fei, this Divine Craft Flying Yamen shall be yours. Xiao Hei, this remaining Snowthread Gloves shall be yours.”After Qin Yu finished saying that, he pointed to the God Sealing Pagoda. A trace of his blood dripped onto the God Sealing Pagoda.That enormous stone pagoda immediately started to rapidly reduce in size. At the same time, it started to assimilate into Qin Yu’s body.“Remember, first drip your blood on it to become its master. Then absorb it into your body and slowly refine it. The two of you do not possess a high level soul, I reckon it’ll take you two at least ten thousand years to refine those Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Do not make haste.” Entrusted Qin Yu.Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked at the ‘Divine Craft Flying Yamen’ and the ‘Snowthread Gloves’ not far away. Then they looked at Qin Yu. The two of them were unable to say anything for a long time.“Well then, the two of you can casually find a place and start training. I will also go and start my training.” Qin Yu slightly smiled. He then disappeared.“Big brother…” Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked as Qin Yu left. They were still unable to say anything.With a thought, a house appeared on the ground. Outside the house was a short and thick osmanthus flower tree. Qin Yu walked into the house and sat down in a cross-legged position. As for Uncle Fu, he was right next to Qin Yu.“Sigh… strange.” Qin Yu sighed.He had originally wanted to get a trace of ‘flour paste energy’ from the Stellar Space for his brothers so that they would be able to refine the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures faster. However, a strange thing occurred.Regardless of how hard Qin Yu tried to control the ‘flour paste energy,’ it would at the very most move about in the Stellar Space. It was simply unable for the flour paste energy to pass through the Black Hole Channel and come out.“Master, is there something?” Seeing Qin Yu’s expression, Uncle Fu asked,Qin Yu woke back up. He smiled and shook his head. “Uncle Fu, for the time being you can stay outside. Wake me up after a hundred years.” After Qin Yu finished saying that, Uncle Fu left the house.Inside the house.Qin Yu started to refine the God Sealing Pagoda.Inside the Stellar Space. It was the same as before, densely packed traces of flour paste energy were gathering toward the Origin in the middle of the Stellar Space. That dark gold colored bead would absorb a shocking amount of flour paste energy at every moment. Merely, the change on the dark gold colored bead was extremely slim.An enormous stone pagoda appeared in the Stellar Space. At the same time, a trace of flour paste energy had already landed and covered the peak of the pagoda.The God Sealing Pagoda was currently absorbing the flour paste energy with an extremely extremely slow speed.Qin Yu clearly sensed that as the God Sealing Pagoda absorbed the flour paste energy, it was being refined unceasingly with a sensible level of change. This sort of refinement did not require him to spend a lot of effort. Thus caused Qin Yu to have the leisure to think about other things.“It would seem that I had thought myself to be too infallible before. I had thought that my body would be comparable to the toughness of a High Quality Divine Artifact. However, it would appear that only a Divine Artifact that has been instilled with Divine Energy would be able to display its true might. The method in which the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm used Divine Artifacts were truly….” Qin Yu can’t help himself from sighing.If one was viewing the sky from the bottom of a well, how would one be able to tell the vastness of the sky?His current body’s toughness was merely that of a Mid Level Deity’s level.“Evidently, the Divine Realm places an immense importance to one’s body. Only through possessing a tough enough body would one be able to bear enough Divine Energy. My soul, with the assistance of the Meteoric Tear, is already close to the Low Level Heavenly Deity level. The reason why I was only able to absorb that small amount of Divine Energy was because my body was not tough enough.”Qin Yu was able to sense that the dark gold colored Divine Energy within his body was slowly permeating into his muscles and bones.His body was slowly and gradually increasing in strength.“My body that was no longer able to level up in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm is actually being easily leveled up here. As expected of the Divine Realm.” Qin Yu gasped in admiration. He then separated his mind to do two tasks. While paying attention to the refinement of the God Sealing Pagoda, he started reading the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’With a flip of his hand, the first scroll of the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ appeared in his hand.After sweeping it with his Divine Awareness, Qin Yu began researching on the ‘Array Path.’ The amount of information contained within each golden scroll was all astonishingly large. As time passed, Qin Yu came to understand more and more about the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’‘Array Path’ was primarily divided into: Killing Array, Trapping Array and Defensive Array.These three different types of arrays were also respectively subdivided into different arrays. For example, the Killing Array could be subdivided into the illusion type which contained the attacking through using Heart’s Devils. There is also the amplification type which uses energy to attack and the overlapping type which overlaps one’s attack power.As for the Trapping Array, it was also divided into numerous different types.The nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ primarily talked about these three major types of formation arrays. What was strange was that this nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path,’ only a bit more than a hundred scrolls talked about ‘Killing Array.’ For ‘Defensive Array,’ there are over two hundred scrolls. The remaining scrolls, over five hundred scrolls, all talked about the ‘Trapping Array.’The information contained within a golden scroll was much more numerous compared to the jade slips of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.Qin Yu originally could not imagine why the ‘Array Path’ would require nine hundred golden scrolls.However, after merely reading three scrolls, Qin Yu came to understand it completely.Of these nine hundred scrolls, it was likely that only one percent of its contents talked about how to set up formation arrays or break through a formation array. As for the rest of its contents, they were all examples and details explanations of numerous different types of formation arrays.It started from the simplest Five Phases Formation Array. It explained how to set up a Five Phases Formation Array, how to break apart a Five Phases Formation Array, what part of the Five Phases Formation Array was its weak point, what part of the Five Phrases Formation Array was important and so on..Like that, the nine hundred scrolls of ‘Array Path’ explained examples of formation arrays one by one.Different types of pairing methods would give birth to different types of formation array examples. It started from the most simple most basic formation array and then continue to go into harder ones. As one proceeded, the formation array examples became more and more complicated.At the beginning, Qin Yu was reading the contents in regard to the ‘Killing Array.’In the entire hundred years, Qin Yu was able to easily understand the principle and essentials of the simple formation arrays that he started with first. However, as he continued to read deeper, when he reached those more complicated formation arrays, it would take him several months or even longer to understand a single formation array.“That’s right. I can coerce others into entering the illusion barrier like that. This I understand. However, how would eighteen overlaying attack formation arrays be able to combine into one?” Qin Yu was still pondering unceasingly. He was using his Divine Awareness to calculate all sort of circumstances with lightning speed.The speed at which a Deity’s Divine Awareness computes was hundreds of thousands of times faster than the Mortal Realm’s science and technology cosmos’s so called supercomputers.“Master, it has already been a hundred years. A year has already passed outside.” Uncle Fu’s voice suddenly sounded.Qin Yu was suddenly woken up by Uncle Fu’s noise.“It’s already been a hundred years?” Qin Yu had a surprised expression on his face. As he was completely emerged in the computations of the formation arrays, he did not even notice the passage of time at all. “Eh, the God Sealing Pagoda also finished refining.”Qin Yu smiled a self-mocking smile.Originally, he had decided to double task and pay attention to the God Sealing Pagoda while studying the ‘Array Path.’ However, as time passed, Qin Yu began to feel that his Divine Awareness’s calculation speed was too slow and started to wholeheartedly emerge himself into the study of the ‘Array Path.’ Thus, he did not pay attention to the God Sealing Pagoda at all.By the time he woke back up, the God Sealing Pagoda had already been finished binding.
Chapter 496 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 5 – Endless DeductionsTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinOnly after he completely refined the ‘God Sealing Pagoda’ did Qin Yu realize its true power. When the ‘God Sealing Pagoda’ absorbs its target, it would both attack the target’s soul and devour its target.If one’s soul were too weak, one would experience a very miserable state after encountering the God Sealing Pagoda.“In the Divine Realm, one’s strength is directly proportional to one’s soul’s level. Those Heavenly Deity level experts, each and every one of them possesses souls that have reached the ‘Embryo’ stage. When attacking with the soul, I am still inadequate by far.”[TL: I have decided to change pre-infant soul stage to Embryo soul stage.]Qin Yu understood in his heart that the so called soul attack was the same as causing the target to be in a muddle headed state and then devour his opponent.“Even though I’ve managed to completely refine it, my soul’s level is too weak. If I were to rely only on the God Sealing Pagoda, I suspect that I would only be able to handle High Level Deities.” Qin Yu estimated in his heart.Attacking with the soul was the same as attacking with one’s Divine Awareness. Under the assistance of the Meteoric Tear, Qin Yu’s Divine Awareness has already reached the Low Level Heavenly Deity level. He was able to completely subdue a High Level Deity.“Big brother.”Hou Fei and Hei Yu’s voices sounded from outside. Uncle Fu’s voice also sounded. “Master, I have already brought Hou Fei and Hei Yu over. The three sets of three thousand six hundred Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones that need to be delivered have also been prepared.”Only then did Qin Yu walk out from his house.“Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, how is the refinement of your Grandmist Spiritual Treasures going?” Said Qin Yu as he smiled. The current Hou Fei and Hei Yu seemed more confident compared to before.Hou Fei smiled and said. “Although I have only refined thirty percent of the Divine Craft Flying Yamen, its speed is already extremely fast. In the Jiang Lan’s Realm, if we aren’t using teleportation or greater teleportation, I am able to throw off Mixed Hair Bird in a blink of an eye.”Hei Yu lightly smiled and said. “Regarding the Snowthread Gloves, I too have refined about thirty percent. However, it has already increased my strength tenfold. Currently, when confronted with me, Monkey is only able to run away.”“That powerful?”Qin Yu was slightly shocked.With merely thirty percent refinement, it had actually increased Hei Yu’s strength by that much. However, once he thought about it, Qin Yu understood why. The reason why it increased Hei Yu’s strength tenfold was because Hei Yu was too weak to begin with. This made it seem as if the amount of strength it had increased with was a lot.“Mixed Hair Bird is too powerful. Those Snowthread Gloves are too crazy! Not only did they increased his attack power by many times, they can also shoot out transparent threads to attack.” Hou Fei sounded helpless.Hei Yu said confidently. “Not only can it shoot out threads to attack, it can also condense those threads into an inescapable net. These Snowthread Gloves indeed possess an amazing level of offensive power. However, I am still unable to execute the true inescapable net. My level of refinement is still not enough.”Hou Fei and Hei Yu’s strength had increased by quite a lot. However, their gap with Qin Yu was still extremely evident.Even if Qin Yu didn’t use his Divine Spear Waning Snow and only used his God Sealing Pagoda, he would still be able to easily seal Hei Yu and Hou Fei, who had just reached the Golden Soul Pellet Stage, into the God Sealing Pagoda. They were simply not at the same level.“Although Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are very important, one’s own cultivation level is even more important. The two of you need to earnestly continue your training.” Entrusted Qin Yu. He then smiled. “Well then, let’s go and deliver those Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones.”Qin Yu first spread out his Divine Awareness from the Jiang Lan’s Realm and inspected the surroundings. Only then did Qin Yu and his brothers appear out from the end of this mine cave.“Let’s go.”Qin Yu and his brothers were all carrying a few Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. They calmly proceeded to walk toward the outside. After all, the three of them couldn’t just carry a large number of Low Quality Divine Spirit Stones out with them.Following the tunnels, Qin Yu continued forward unceasingly. Fortunately, Deities for the most part possessed very good memory. Although they had only been here once, the three of them still remembered the route completely. After passing through a tunnel, Qin Yu noticed a lot of miners.“Hey, big brother, look over there.” Hou Fei said in a low voice. “Each and every one of them has a tool in their hand.”Qin Yu looked over. Sure enough, each and every one of the miners was holding a small pouch. Within the pouch was a tool. Some of the miners were holding that tool. It was a tool with the appearance similar to a shovel.“Is it for mining?” Qin Yu frowned.Qin Yu suddenly remembered. When he first came to the Divine Realm, that little squadron captain Huang Xu had said that ascenders are weak and cannot use their hands to split open the stones of the Divine Realm. At that time, Huang Xu had demonstrated that with a battle blade.“Mining, it cannot be done using hands. There is a need for tools. However, why don’t the three of us have tools?” Thought Qin Yu puzzled.“Big brother, there’s a place that we haven’t been to yet.”Hou Fei flipped his hand and took out a thing. It was the key that they had been given when they arrived here!“Hopefully no one noticed that we have never been to our housing location.” Qin Yu and his brothers immediately sped up. They quickly passed through the subterranean mine tunnel and arrived above ground. They started to proceed directly toward the location of their housing.The housing region was extremely vast. Numerous rooms were densely packed and placed in picturesque disorder. There was a number on the door to each room.Qin Yu and his brothers easily found their rooms. The three of them had rooms right next to each other. In front of their doors was a hexagonal hole. Qin Yu and his brothers all placed their hexagonal keys into their respective hexagonal holes.With a ‘ka!’ sound, the three doors were all opened.In all three rooms was a bed, a praying mat, a large bag, a small pouch and a shovel. Qin Yu and his brothers went into a single room.“This shovel is a Low Quality Divine Artifact.” Qin Yu pointed to the shovel and said. “In the Divine Realm, the status of the Low Quality Divine Artifacts is like that of my hometown Hidden Dragon Continent’s extremely ordinary metal weaponries that are present everywhere. As for Mid Quality Divine Artifacts, they possess the same status as those of Metal Essence Weaponries. They are much more precious. As for the High Quality Divine Artifacts, they are comparable to the Mortal Realm’s Mystic Metal Weaponries.”Once Qin Yu said those, Hei Yu and Hou Fei managed to easily understand the difference between the three levels of Divine Artifacts.All of Qin Yu’s knowledge regarding the Divine Artifacts was obtained from back when he flipped through some of the golden scrolls that gave a rough summary of refinement knowledge, back in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.“Big brother, it would seem that in the Divine Realm, the Low Quality Divine Artifact is the most ordinary one that even ordinary Deities are capable of using. However, in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, they are held in extreme importance.” Gasped Hou Fei.Qin Yu lightly smiled and said. “That’s right. In the Divine Realm, if one knows how to create artifacts, then one could casually create Low Quality Divine Artifacts. If one is a bit proficient in the art of creating artifacts, then one would be able to create Mid Quality Divine Artifacts. Those that are more amazing would be able to create High Quality Divine Artifacts. Only a great master would be able to create a Heavenly Divine Artifact.”“Generally, Deities will use Divine Artifacts. The higher the position the person is, the stronger the Divine Artifact he will be using. As for experts of the Heavenly Deity level, they will generally use Heavenly Divine Artifacts. There might be some Heavenly Deities in dire straits that would use High Quality Divine Artifacts instead.” Said Qin Yu as he smiled.There were also differences between Heavenly Deities. Those poor and low status Low Level Heavenly Deities might not particularly be better off than a High Level Deity that possesses both status and background.For instance, people like Qin Yu. They had only reached the Deity stage but already possessed Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.Qin Yu and his brothers all held mining shovels. After all, they must give off an appearance of doing work. As for that large and small bag, the three of them also knew the reason for those two bags. The small bag was for storing Divine Spiritual Stones when mining and the large bag was used to store the Divine Spiritual Stones when delivering them every year.“Look, there’s a jade slip in this bag.” Hou Fei pointed to the inside of the large bag and said with a surprised expression.Jade slips, they were the major instruments for storing information in lower realms like the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. But in the Divine Realm… jade slips were extremely cheaply-priced goods. As for the golden scrolls that possessed both greater capacity and better construction, they were something that only people with wealth would use.Qin Yu swept through the jade slip with his Divine Awareness. He soon became aware of the contents within the jade slip.It turned out that this jade slip had explained in details the things to take note of when mining in the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine. Furthermore, it had especially mentioned that these two bags, the mining shovel and this jade slip were all items that were lended to the miners and must not be damaged. They were items that were meant to be passed on to the next miner.“Truly frugal.” Qin Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry.Hou Fei also took the jade slip and swept through it with his Divine Awareness. “Hell, they even want us to break up the larger Divine Spiritual Stones into a uniform size. Truly annoying.” Hou Fei looked to the Divine Spiritual Stones in his hand. “Fortunately the ones Uncle Fu gave us are of uniform size.”In the Divine Realm, the Divine Spiritual Stones are counted through ‘pieces.’However, there are large ‘pieces’ and small ‘pieces.’ This Divine Realm has a very definite size regulation for a Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stone. At the same time as they mined, the miners are to break up the Divine Spiritual Stones into the correct sizing. Fortunately, the Divine Spiritual Stones are not very hard and can be easily cut apart using the mining shovels.Three thousand six hundred pieces of Divine Spiritual Stones were placed into the large bag. It filled up over half of the bag.Hou Fei and Hei Yu also returned to their own rooms. They retrieved their large bags and also loaded it with three thousand six hundred pieces of Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. Like this, the three brothers each carried a bag and proceeded to walk toward the ‘payment office.’When they arrived at the payment office, Qin Yu and his brothers encountered some soldiers in charge of this place.“You’re here to deliver the Divine Spiritual Stones? Oh, follow me.” Said a captain like ringleader indifferently.Time passed…As this was the first time for Qin Yu and his brothers to deliver the Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones, they were a bit interested. However, the times after that were boring like routine business.Inside the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.Qin Yu had been wholeheartedly studying the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’ Qin Yu did not casually skim over these nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’ Instead, he had been carefully studying and comprehending each and every formation array example.After about sixty thousand years.Qin Yu had finally finished reading the entire nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ once. He did not read the nine hundred scrolls without thinking. Instead, he had read them and carefully and completely make sure he understood every single formation array example.“Huff!”Qin Yu put away the final golden scroll. He heaved a long sigh of relief.Qin Yu felt as if he had wandered about unhurriedly in a boundless ocean. In this boundless ocean, each and every droplet of water within it was a formation array. In this ocean of formation arrays, Qin Yu continued to study each and every droplet without stopping.However, Qin Yu felt that the numerous examples that were presented in the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ was merely a billionth region of the entire formation array ocean.The Array Path was truly too complicated, too extensive. To completely control it was truly too difficult.“Master.” Uncle Fu appeared outside Qin Yu’s house. “I heard master’s voice. I assume master has finished reading the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path?’”“That’s right.” Qin Yu’s eyes shined. He knew that Uncle Fu had some comprehension regarding the ‘Array Path.’ Immediately, he asked. “Uncle Fu, is there anything that you can teach me regarding the ‘Array Path?’”Uncle Fu smiled and said. “Master, I’ll say some of the stuff that old master told me back then. The ‘Array Path’ is like an ocean of formation arrays. Each and every formation array is nothing more than a droplet of water within the ocean. As for all those examples of formation arrays that are mentioned in the nine hundred scrolls, with all of them combined, they are no more than a small corner of the formation array ocean. According to the old master, in order to comprehend the ‘Formation Array,’ one must push forward from the small corner to reach a larger area. After that, one could arrange the gathered information, sum them up and then comprehend the quintessence of the entire formation array ocean.”Qin Yu nodded in approval.Formation array started from the simple to the complicated.. They become more and more difficult, more and more profound…As for how profound and complicated the formation arrays would become, Qin Yu was unable to imagine it. It was just like the overlaying formation array, the complication of the formation array could overlay each other infinite times. Of course, this was under the premise that one was able to control all those layers of formation arrays in harmony.“The old master had once said that all the examples of formation arrays given in the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ are the easiest and most basic formation arrays to the ones that possessed a slight difficulty. In order to comprehend the first stage of the ‘Array Path,’ one merely needs to use the formation arrays presented by the nine hundred scrolls of ‘Array Path,’ and then extrapolate into more and more complicated formation arrays. The more formation arrays you can extrapolate, the more accurate the first stage of the ‘Array Path’ that you comprehended will be.” Said Uncle Fu solemnly.Qin Yu came to remember.Uncle Fu had once said that the Craftsman God Chehou Yuan had originally spent a million years to comprehend the first stage of the Array Path. He then spent ten million years to comprehend the second stage of the Array Path. However later, he gave up all his knowledge of the array path and began to study it from the beginning again. This time around, he spent a billion years to comprehend the first stage and then merely two hours to comprehend the second stage of the Array Path.“Perhaps I understand the correct method to study the ‘Array Path.’” Qin Yu nodded.The current him had merely taken the first step. As for his next step, it required him to continue to derive and continue to develop the various branches of formation array…“Master, I have another thing to tell you. Another hundred years have passed. Master, you need to deliver the Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile.
Chapter 497 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 6 – Subterranean Cave DragonTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: PhillipOn a certain dark and deep corner tunnel located in the underground mine. Qin Yu and his brothers had secretly appeared out of thin air. After that, the three others all held a mining shovel in one hand and a small pouch on the other. They were even dressed like miners.Hou Fei and Hei Yu both had a confident smile on their faces.After nearly sixty thousand years, the two of them have completely refined their respective Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Had it not been for the fact that Chehou Yuan left these two Grandmist Spiritual Treasures for his successor so they were relatively easy to refine, then it was likely that even if Hou Fei and Hei Yu spent even more time on them, it would still be very unlikely for them to be able to refine them successfully.As for Qin Yu, although he had been researching the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ the entire time, a single Dao (Path) was ten thousand Daos. Chehou Yuan had precisely reached the High Level Heavenly Deity level with researching the ‘Array Path.’As for Qin Yu, when he was researching the ‘Array Path,’ his level had also increased slightly. The current Qin Yu, his soul’s level had already completely reached the High Level Deity level. With the assistance of the Meteoric Tear, his comprehension and control of the spatial laws had also reached the general level of Low Level Heavenly Deities.“The current me is already capable of flying.” Qin Yu had a smile on his face.Flying in the Divine Realm was not merely using one’s energy to resist the gravity of the ground. Instead, it was through using the comprehension of the spatial laws to control the space and eliminate the gravity of the ground. Once one started to fly, one would not have to consume any energy to fly.“This Meteoric Tear is truly peculiar. I am merely at the High Level Deity stage. However, with it, I instead possess the remarkable ability of a Low Level Heavenly Deity.” Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from becoming even more curious of the Meteoric Tear. Who was this person called Zuo Qiumei that had left the Meteoric Tear behind?Qin Yu had also asked Uncle Fu before as to whether he knew of this ‘Zuo Qiumei.’ However, Uncle Fu’s response was instead… “Zuo Qiumei? I’ve never heard of her. Master, the big shots of the Divine Realm all possess titles. Their true names are something only certain upper tier people know of.”The Divine Realm’s Godkings, they mostly possessed some resounding titles.For example, the Utmost East Sage Emperor of the Eight Great Sage Emperors was only called the Utmost East Sage Emperor. As for his true name, there are not many people that know about it.As the three brothers chatted, they had casually walked past a couple underground tunnels and made a couple turns. They had encountered quite many miners. The further they go toward the exit, the more miners they encountered.“Hey, Shi Tian.” Hou Fei saw a man afar. His eyes immediately started to shine and he yelled.Qin Yu also looked over. The man and woman from afar was precisely Shi Tian and Song Hui that had ascended together with them. At this moment, Shi Tian and Song Hui also walked over with smiles on their face.“Brother Qin Yu, Brother Hou Fei, Brother Hei Yu, it’s been about six hundred years now. We have finally meet each other again.” That Shi Tian’s speech was extremely etiquette.To run into each other once in six hundred years, the probability of that was indeed awfully low.Actually, it wasn’t that the probability was low. Instead, it was because Qin Yu and his brothers hardly show themselves inside the mine. Thus, it was naturally hard for people to encounter them.“Do the three of you know which villages you’ll be assigned to in the future?” Song Hui suddenly asked.“Village? What do you mean?” Hou Fei said with a puzzled expression.Shi Tian and Song Hui were startled. They then glanced at each other. It seemed that their eyes were filled with shock and confusion.Shi Tian explained. “Could it be that others have not mentioned it to you when you three were mining? All ascenders, once they finished their thousand years of mining, they would be distributed to villages.”Qin Yu came to a realization.“However, there are also differences between villages. The closer the village is to the city, the more tranquil the Divine Spiritual Energy surrounding it would be. As for the villages that are further from the city, their Divine Spiritual Energy is even more violent.” Shi Tian explained in details. “Thus, for ascenders like us, if we were to be able to be assigned to villages that are closer to the city, then even though the Divine Spiritual Energy is still violent, but their violentness would be relatively low which would allow us to be able to absorb some Divine Spiritual Energy.”Qin Yu and his brothers completely understood now.There are only twenty million people within the Yuchi City. However, there are two hundred million people outside of the city. Some of the villages are closer to the city whereas some of the villages are further away. Of course, everyone wanted to cram into the closest village.“You all still didn’t know about that? Quickly, go and gift some Divine Elemental Stones to that Lord Yan Yu who assigns people to different villages.” Advised Shi Tian with good intentions. “If you were to gift him more Divine Elemental Stones, then Lord Yan Yu would assign you to villages that are closer to the city, Otherwise…. you’ll only be assigned to remote villages far from the city. In those remote villages, it would be impossible for you to even absorb the slightest amount of Divine Spiritual Energy.”Qin Yu and his brothers were all unable to refrain their smiles.Bribery?They who possessed that many Divine Spiritual Stones, was there a need for them to go through all that trouble?“Thank you Brother Shi Tian for informing us.” Said Qin Yu with a smile.Suddenly, at this moment…The ground started to shake. A lot of the Divine Realm’s miners started to sway back and forth. With a rumbling sound, an underground tunnel not far away from where Qin Yu and them stood had started caving in.At the same time, a numerous stones on top of the mine tunnel started falling down. All of the Deities started to rush to dodge the falling rocks. Those that were smashed by the stones, even if they did not die, they would still have to spend a large amount of Divine Energy to restore their bodies.“Ah~~~~” A miserable scream sounded.“Roar~~~” A frightening roar was heard. At the same time, another miserable scream was heard. Shi Tian and Song Hui’s expression had taken a huge change. Shi Tian said hurriedly. “Brother Qin Yu, you all should leave quickly. There seems to be some sort of danger here.”Qin Yu and his brothers did not move. Seeing that Qin Yu and them did not have any reaction, Shi Tian and Song Hui started running away.However, at the direction that Shi Tian and Song Hui rushed out to, the wall on top of the tunnel started cracking. Following the unceasingly sound of wall cracking, numerous stones started crashing down. Following a ‘boom’ sound, this tunnel had also completely caved in.Shi Tian and Song Hui immediately turned around and started running toward the opposite direction. They ran past Qin Yu and his brothers and started running toward the underground tunnel to their right.“Everyone, run, quickly! It’s a Subterranean Cave Dragon!”“Ah~~~” The miserable screams continued unceasingly.The sounds of chaos rose in succession. All of the Deities were rushing toward the safe underground tunnels. A lot of the underground tunnels in their surroundings had already caved in. A lot of the Deities had rushed toward the tunnel to the right of Qin Yu.“Why aren’t you all running? The Subterranean Cave Dragon is an extremely powerful demon beast of the Divine Realm. Even a High Level Deity would find it very hard to deal with it.” Said a youth wearing a soldier’s armor to Qin Yu and his brothers. Once he finished saying these words, he stopped caring about Qin Yu and them and proceeded to escape for his life at a rapid pace.“Roar~~~”The sounds of roars and screams continued to rise and fall in succession. Qin Yu even saw blood splashing in the depths of the tunnel to his left. Qin Yu and his brothers were all looking at that direction. The left tunnel had also started to shake.“Subterranean Cave Dragon?” A smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face.Hou Fei and Hei Yu also displayed an eager expression. The three of them had all finished refining their Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. They all wanted to test out their Grandmist Spiritual Treasures on this demon beast.Within the field of vision of Qin Yu and his brothers, several hundred people were frantically running toward the safe tunnel that Qin Yu and his brothers were in. However, right at this moment, the tunnel wall above these people had suddenly split open.A claw came crashing out from the stone wall.“Bang!” That claw had instantly caught a middle-aged man. With a pitter-patter sound of bones breaking, that middle aged man’s eyes were filled with dismay. However, all the bones in his entire body had been broken apart. In a blink of an eye, that middle-aged man had turned into bits of crushed bones and flesh. His Golden Soul Pellet had also been completely crushed by the claw.At the moment when that claw crushed a person to death, the stone walls above the tunnel actually started to give birth to one claw after another.Each and every claw was a greenish black color. They were all two to three meters tall. Each of the claws possessed ten fingers. At the same time, the ten fingers all had numerous, densely packed, short blade-like barbs.In merely a blink of an eye, seventy to eighty claws had penetrated through the wall and crushed numerous Deities to death. All the people that were captured by the claws and crushed to death have turned into bits of bones and flesh.“Bang!”The stone wall on top of the tunnel had completely shattered. An enormous monster had appeared.Subterranean Cave Dragon!It was several hundred meters long. Its appearance was like an enormous centipede. Merely, it possess a slender tail. This tail that it possessed was at the very least over a hundred meters. The numerous greenish black colored claws underneath its body numbered at least in the several hundreds.That pair of ice-cold eyes were coldly looking at the group of Deities who were losing their heads out of fear. Its claws were rapidly flying over.“Ah~~~” Those Deities have all lost themselves with fear. However, there were also many Deities that had grown angry and took out their battle blades or long swords. However, those battle blades and long swords did not manage to do anything when hacking at the Subterranean Cave Dragon.Just by looking at the Subterranean Cave Dragon’s body, its tortoise shell-like carapace, one would be able to know how powerful its defense was.Although it seemed that a lot of time had passed, the Subterranean Cave Dragon had only just appeared and started attacking. The Deities had also only just started defending themselves. The total amount of time that had passed was merely about ten breath’s time.“Truly powerful enough. Big brother, I’ll go first.”Hei Yu’s hands started to shine. The Snowthread Gloves had already been worn on his hands. After that, Hei Yu grabbed his Cloud Piercing Spear and rushed toward the Subterranean Cave Dragon. A dark golden colored light was flowing on the surface of the Cloud Piercing Spear.Hei Yu violently stepped onto the ground. Like a sharp arrow, his body was shot forward.“Hooh!”Hei Yu’s gaze was like lightning. The muscles in his arms violently bulged. His pair of hands became completely sparkling, translucent and transparent. That Cloud Piercing Spear that he held in his hands had also started to shine.Heaven Startling Single Spear Strike!That black spear silhouette brought with an endless amount of power. It ripped apart the air and produced a sharp whistle as it firmly smashed upon the tortoise shell-like torso. Following a painful roar, that protective carapace had been split open.That Subterranean Cave Dragon’s ice-cold gaze was burning with rage. It stared at Hei Yu. It actually spoke. “You, shall die!”Qin Yu’s expression changed. This Subterranean Cave Dragon’s defense was even more powerful than what Qin Yu had anticipated. Hei Yu had currently refined the Snowthread Gloves and even attacked with the Cloud Piercing Spear. However, the Subterranean Cave Dragon was unexpectedly only injured.Toward the enormous body of the Subterranean Cave Dragon, such a mere amount of injury would only incur its wrath.“Xiao Hei, retreat.”Qin Yu shouted. At at this moment, the Subterranean Cave Dragon that had its concentration fixed on Hei Yu stopped chasing the other Deities to kill. Those Deities immediately ran for their lives. Not a single one of them remained here to help Qin Yu and his brothers.“Big brother, this guy’s defense is too strong.” Hei Yu rapidly retreated back. As for the Subterranean Cave Dragon, with the movement of its several hundred claws, it had instantly reached Qin Yu and his brothers.Qin Yu’s eyes shined.So fast!At the same time, Qin Yu grabbed Hou Fei and Hei Yu. With a lightning like speed, he flew toward the air.“Big brother, you can fly?” Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked to Qin Yu with shocked expressions.“The two of you, step aside first.” Qin Yu released his hands. Hou Fei and Hei Yu landed on the ground. As for Qin Yu, he looked to that Subterranean Cave Dragon with a smile on his face. That Subterranean Cave Dragon also stared at Qin Yu.Divine Realm’s demon beast. Although it had yet to undergo the tribulation, it still possessed the soul level of a level nine Demon Emperor. Thus, it naturally also possessed wisdom.The person before him could fly! He was a Heavenly Deity! Danger!That was the response from the Subterranean Cave Dragon.As Qin Yu continued to float, he flipped his hand and took out a miniature stone pagoda. Qin Yu lightly smiled to the Subterranean Cave Dragon. “Subterranean Cave Dragon? You shall be the first servant of the God Sealing Pagoda.”An invisible ripple shot out from the God Sealing Pagoda to the Subterranean Cave Dragon.“Humph, although this God Sealing Pagoda cannot take care of a Heavenly Deities, but it is extremely easy for it to take care the demon beasts of the Divine Realm that possess extremely low soul level.” A smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face.A simple soul attack from the God Sealing Pagoda had instantly brought the Subterranean Cave Dragon to a muddleheaded state. After that, without any resistance, it was easily absorbed into the God Sealing Pagoda.Hou Fei and Hei Yu were dumbstruck as they saw the Subterranean Cave Dragon disappear into thin air before them.“It’s gone?” Hou Fei and Hei Yu looked to Qin Yu with shocked expressions. They then looked at the God Sealing Pagoda in Qin Yu’s hand.Qin Yu landed on the ground. He glanced at the tunnel behind him where majority of the people had fled toward. “They are truly slow in coming.” Qin Yu did not wish to create trouble. He directly absorbed the God Sealing Pagoda into his body.Hou Fei and Hei Yu immediately walked to Qin Yu’s side.“Big brother, did the God Sealing Pagoda absorb it?” Asked Hou Fei excitedly.“What do you think?” Said Qin Yu as he smiled. “Well then, the army of the mine is coming. Let’s leave quickly. Mn…. seems like we can’t leave.” Qin Yu lightly smiled as he looked to the depths of the tunnel behind him.A figure had turned into a blur. In an instant, it had passed through a distance of several miles. Like lightning, it had arrived before Qin Yu and his brothers.Qin Yu and his brothers all managed to recognize the person that appeared before them. It was precisely that Heavenly Deity that they had seen before, the person in charge of the mine…. Heavenly Deity Yuchi Yang.Yuchi Yang wore a black gown and had a very stern and indifferent appearance.Yuchi Yang looked at the ground in the distance that was filled with bits of bones and flesh. He then coldly looked at Qin Yu and his brothers. His brows frowned. He said. “Did the three of you manage to see the Subterranean Cave Dragon?”Qin Yu nodded and said. “Your Lordship, that Subterranean Cave Dragon had massacred along its path. It then ran away with a lightning like speed.”“Oh? Those people that had managed to flee said that there was a person welding a spear fighting with the Subterranean Cave Dragon here. Did you all manage to see it?” Yuchi Yang looked to Qin Yu and his brothers coldly.
Chapter 498 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 7 – Three Golden ScrollsTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinA person holding a spear was fighting against the Subterranean Cave Dragon?Qin Yu wanted to curse out in rage. How could those people that they saved be such blabbermouths? And right when Qin Yu and his brothers were looking at each other, a rumbling sound could be heard.It was the sound of a large number of troops.Qin Yu and his brothers looked to the depths of the tunnel. They saw numerous Divine Realm’s soldiers running towards them at a high speed. That closely packed army gave off an oppressive sensation.“Your Lordship, the one thousand soldiers of the Third Great Army are all present.” Said a tall and robust man respectfully.Yuchi Yang nodded indifferently. His gaze was however still on Qin Yu and his brothers. “Speak, where is that person who held a spear and fought against the Subterranean Cave Dragon?”“Your Lordship, we did not see him.” Qin Yu said with a light bow. As for Hou Fei and Hei Yu, the two of them merely stood behind Qin Yu without saying anything.Yuchi Yang closely examined the three with his gaze. He then turned around and looked at the battlefield, filled with bits of bones and flesh. He then looked at the stone walls of the tunnels that had collapsed through the Subterranean Cave Dragon’s claws.“Where were you three at earlier? How come you didn’t see it?” Yuchi Yang asked with a frown.Qin Yu pointed to a tunnel that had already collapsed. He said. “Your Lordship, earlier when that Subterranean Cave Dragon came killing everyone, I knew that it was merely a demon beast, so although its attack strength was strong, its soul’s level was much inferior to that of a Deities’. Thus, the three of us hid ourselves within that pile of collapsed and crushed rocks and stones. Only when the Subterranean Cave Dragon left did we come back out.”“Mn, you’re pretty intelligent.” Yuchi Yang nodded.With the way Qin Yu explained himself, it was very easy for him to explain about why they didn’t see who it was that battled against the Subterranean Cave Dragon. Hiding within the piles of fallen rocks and stones, how would they be able to see the battle?Using Divine Awareness to search?That pile of crushed rocks and stones was located several hundred meters from the battlefield. To allow one’s Divine Awareness to spread out several hundred meters from one’s body was something only a Low Level Heavenly Deity could do.“The Subterranean Cave Dragon has hidden itself again?”That Yuchi Yang stared at the surrounding collapsed tunnels. His brows deeply creased. Even if the Subterranean Cave Dragon were to be killed, it should at the very least remain a carcass. Even if it were a Heavenly Deity level expert, it would still not be that easy for him to kill a Subterranean Cave Dragon.As for Qin Yu and his brothers, from Yuchi Yang’s inspections, only the leader among them, Qin Yu, possessed a soul at the High Level Deity level. The other two were merely Low Level Deities. They were practically not people that can handle a Subterranean Cave Dragon.“You all can leave now.”Said Yuchi Yang indifferently.“Yes, Your Lordship.” Said Qin Yu with a humble yet courteous tone. After that, the three brothers followed the non collapsed tunnel and quickly left the mine.After Qin Yu and his brothers paid their three thousand six hundred pieces of Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones, they entered a new tunnel of the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine. The three of them continued to walk to the deepest part of the region and then entered the Jiang Lan’s Realm.In the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.“Big brother, I was so anxious when that Heavenly Deity was questioning us to see if we managed to see someone battle against the Subterranean Cave Dragon. Who knew that big brother is capable of figuring out an answer to that so quickly.” Laughed Hou Fei with a gaga sound.Hei Yu also nodded with a grave and stern expression. “That Yuchi Yang, his strength is indeed powerful.”“He’s a Heavenly Deity.” Qin Yu understood in his heart that although he can fly now, it was only because of the Meteoric Tear. The energy within his body… was still just Divine Energy and not Heavenly Divine Energy.“The Deities that possess Heavenly Divine Energy are still stronger than me, unless I use the Divine Spear Waning Snow.” Said Qin Yu with a light smile.Once he used the Divine Spear Waning Snow, it would not be that hard for Qin Yu to kill a Low Level Heavenly Deity.“Well then, let’s not waste any more time. Let’s continue training. How far along are you two in the training of the Divine Realm’s body cultivation martial technique that Uncle Fu gave you?” Asked Qin Yu with a smile.The Divine Realm’s body cultivation martial techniques were something that was relatively precious. However, there was a vast collection of such body cultivation martial techniques in the Bewitching God Temple.Qin Yu was instead fretting over the fact that there was not enough time. He had practically spent all his time on researching the ‘Array Path.’ Thus, he had temporarily not trained in the body cultivation martial techniques and could only allow his body to increase in strength through absorbing Divine Spiritual Energy. Only, such a primitive method was truly too slow.Hou Fei shook his head and said. “I haven’t started training in it yet.”“Neither have I.” Hei Yu also shook his head.“What’s going on? I ordered Uncle Fu to give those body cultivation martial techniques to the two of you, so why aren’t you training in them? In the Divine Realm, especially at the Deity stage, it is still extremely important to train your body.” Qin Yu said with a confused expression.The different types of energy in the Divine Realm were primarily separated into Divine Energy and Heavenly Divine Energy.Among them, Divine Energy was a more violent and savage energy. When training in Divine Energy, the burden on the body was extremely large. One could only attain a higher level Divine Energy through obtaining a stronger body.However, Heavenly Divine Energy was different. Heavenly Divine Energy was extremely pure and gentle.Thus, when training one’s body, one merely needs to train to a level where one would be capable of shouldering the Divine Energy of a High Level Deity. That would be sufficient. Of course, there were some Heavenly Deities that would search for an even more valiant body. However, those are extremely few in number.To Heavenly Deities, the best method for them to increase their strength was through better comprehension of the spatial laws.“Big brother.” A smile appeared on Hei Yu’s face. “During these nearly sixty thousand years, Monkey and I did not train in the body cultivation martial techniques, but the two of us have been quietly training to increase our soul’s level at a faster speed.”Hou Fei added. “The bodies of Mixed Hair Bird and I are still relatively good. At the very least, we have not yet reached a level where we would become unable to shoulder the Divine Energy. Thus, we wanted to increase our souls’ level and then train our bodies.”“Increasing the soul level, that’s good too.” Qin Yu thought about it and then nodded.From Qin Yu’s point of view, it was a lot easier to train the body than to increase one’s soul’s level. When training the body, one merely needs sufficient amounts of Divine Energy and some time. However, training the soul was much harder.Usually, it would require several tens of millions of years for a Deity to reach the Mid Level Deity stage.Although Hou Fei and Hei Yu might be faster because they possessed the Cloud Piercing Spear and the Black Stick, it would still likely take them several hundred thousand years.Since his brothers wanted to wholeheartedly increase their soul’s level, Qin Yu also did not bother to force them. Qin Yu then returned back to his house and started his comprehension of the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’ Hou Fei and Hei Yu also went to do their respective trainings.The nine hundred scrolls of ‘Array Path.’ Killing Array, Trapping Array, and Defensive Array; the three main types.After spending sixty thousand years, Qin Yu managed to carefully read through the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ once. And now, Qin Yu did not hurry to analyze some higher level and more complicated formation arrays. Instead, he started to re-study the formation array examples presented by the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’In the past sixty thousand years, Qin Yu had merely managed to achieve a basic understanding of the ‘Array Path.’And now, Qin Yu wished to used the examples presented in the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’ to achieve complete understanding and then deduce many things from one case. He wanted to completely understand those examples.Time passed. Qin Yu continued to unceasingly study the most basic, the most fundamental and some of the slightly difficult formation arrays. They were the foundation of the formation array pyramid. Qin Yu was studying them one by one.After about thirty thousand years.Qin Yu put away the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path.’ His closed eyes had also opened. An excited expression was in his eyes.“Uncle Fu.” Qin Yu shouted.Hearing Qin Yu’s voice, Uncle Fu immediately walked into Qin Yu’s room. Respectfully, Uncle Fu said. “Master, is there something you need me to do?”“Uncle Fu, let me ask you, is the first stage of the ‘Array Path,’ the comprehension of the foundation of the formation arrays so that one could be able to figure out any formation arrays in an instant regardless of whether it’s simple or complicated?”Qin Yu was somewhat excited.That was because Qin Yu sensed that he seemed to have reached the stage of complete comprehension for the first stage of the ‘Array Path.’ At this moment, Qin Yu had a feeling that all of the different kinds of formation arrays’ arrangements were in his mind. When he closed his eyes, he was able to clearly see thousands upon thousands of formation arrays in his mind. At the same time, he was capable of figuring out the strong points, weak points and the way to break the formation arrays in an instant.This sensation of everything being within his control gave Qin Yu an extremely delighted feeling.Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu with a smile on his face. “Master, as far as I know, among all the experts that have comprehended the first stage of the ‘Array Path,’ the fastest one spent about a hundred thousand years. Even the old master spent a million years before he managed to comprehend the first stage of the ‘Array Path’. However, master has comprehended it in merely ninety thousand years. It would appear that master’s aptitude in the field of ‘Array Path’ is indeed exceptional.”Qin Yu was unable to refrain from smiling.“The old master once said, that if when one closes his eyes, he is able to envision millions upon millions of formation arrays in his mind, with all these arrays being arrays that he has studied till perfection, and at the same time have a feeling that he would easily be able to figure out even more complicated formation arrays, then, and only then, would he be able to declare that he has comprehended the first stage of the ‘Array Path’ . Master, is that how you are feeling?”“That’s right, that’s exactly it. I also even have a kind of sensation that if you were to give me enough time, I would be able to deduce formation arrays that are tens of millions of times more complicated.” Qin Yu said in succession.That was the sort of sensation that he had.“The first stage of the ‘Array Path’ is the foundation of the ‘Array Path.’ However, the foundation of the ‘Array Path’ that everyone manages to comprehend is different. Master, do you feel as if you can easily decipher and break any formation array?” Said Uncle Fu with a smile.Qin Yu was startled.Qin Yu wanted to nod because that was precisely the sensation that he had at the moment. After comprehending the foundation of formation arrays, Qin Yu felt as if he would be able to use the basis of the formation arrays to decipher and break any formation array. After all, all formation arrays were developed through the basic formation arrays.However, Qin Yu’s wisdom was telling him that it was simply impossible for him to achieve a state where he could decipher and break any formation array in merely ninety thousand years.“Master, I do not possess a soul and am incapable of comprehending the first stage of the ‘Array Path.’ All I can do is analyze more and more complicated formation arrays through using the simplest and most basic formation arrays.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile.QIn Yu looked to Uncle Fu with a confused expression. He does not understand what Uncle Fu meant by that.Uncle Fu continued. “Master, I followed the old master for an extremely long period of time. The amount of time I have spent analyzing formation arrays is extremely long. Back then when I first started, I was capable of analyzing formation arrays in my brain. However, as the formation arrays became more and more complicated, I started having to utilize the golden scrolls to analyze a single formation array.”Qin Yu nodded.This was something that was easily explained.For example, the mathematical problems that mortals have. They are capable of calculating the simple mathematical problems in their mind. However, when the mathematical problems became complicated, they needed paper to calculate on.“After researching all these years, I have recorded some of the more complicated formation arrays onto some golden scrolls. Master… during the time I have spent in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, plus the ninety thousand years we have spent here, I have recently just designed a Killing Array. Master, please have a look at it.”Uncle Fu flipped his hand and took out three golden scrolls. He then handed them over to Qin Yu.“Uncle Fu, don’t tell me that a single formation array required three golden scrolls to record?” Qin Yu was overwhelmed with shock.Even the most complicated formation array within the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path’, would only occupy one ten thousandth of a golden scroll.Uncle Fu nodded respectfully. “Master, this is one of the strongest killing array formations that I have designed. It has precisely required three entire golden scrolls to record. Master, please appraise the formation array.”
Chapter 499 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 8 – The Change in the Stellar SpaceTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: PhillipQin Yu looked at Uncle Fu for a long time. Only then did he take the three golden scrolls.To ordinary Deities, the golden scrolls are precious goods. However, to the Bewitching God Temple… items like the golden scrolls which are used to record information numbered in the tens of millions.Qin Yu immediately used his Divine Awareness to carefully inspect the three golden scrolls.Exactly how large was the capacity of three golden scrolls? Even if he wasn’t studying them and was only skimming through the three golden scrolls, it still took Qin Yu four entire years to finish reading these four golden scrolls.“Killing Array?”Qin Yu closed his eyes. All the contents that he had read in the past four years emerged in his mind. Instantly, an enormous formation array appeared before Qin Yu’s mind. That formation array was so complicated that Qin Yu was unable to tell how it was formed at all.“I have completely understood the fundamentals. So why is it that I am unable to see through this formation array?” Qin Yu was somewhat anxious.Qin Yu tried to analyze and break the formation array. However, it immediately started to change. Flames filled the sky. In the middle of the flames was a large amount of lightning violently crashing down.Qin Yu immediately discarded all the contents in his mind.After opening his eyes, Qin Yu who had a pale complexion looked to Uncle Fu before him. With a confused expression on his eyes, Qin Yu said. “Uncle Fu, why is it that even though I had originally not discovered any fire element or lightning element attacks, i was still attacked by both of those elements when I touched it?”If one did not have any understanding of formation array, one would not know exactly how powerful this formation array was.However, Qin Yu could still be considered someone who had stepped into the palace of formation arrays. Although he could not understand the true might of this killing array, the moment the formation array activated, the malevolent killing intent that was displayed was something that Qin Yu could still sense and understand.“Master, I once asked the old master regarding an issue. I asked the old master why he ended up restarting his research of formation arrays and spent a billion years to re-comprehend the first stage of the ‘Array Path’ when he had already comprehended the first stage and even the second stage of the ‘Array Path.’” Uncle Fu looked to Qin Yu with a smile on his face. “Master, do you know how the old master answered that question of mine?”Qin Yu shook his head.Uncle Fu continued. “The old master said that when one learned only how to write a single strike called ‘one,’ two strikes called ‘two,’ and then three strikes called ‘three’ yet already declared oneself to know all the writing of numbers, isn’t that truly ridiculous?”[Philip: Right, that fable of that boy who tried to write the character for ten thousand (万)when he thought he knew how to write numbers after learning one two and three. XD]Qin Yu nodded.“The old master also said that the ocean of formation arrays is boundless. Many people had merely researched a portion of the boundless ocean of formation arrays and then comprehended their foundation of the formation arrays from that small portion. Is that a true foundation then?”Qin Yu somewhat understood it now.As he had only learned the nine hundred scrolls of the ‘Array Path,’ it was likely that what he had comprehended was incorrect.“A lot of people had determined by themselves that they had comprehended the first stage of the ‘Array Path’ and thought themselves to be amazing…however, it would be extremely extremely hard for those people to comprehend the second stage of the ‘Array Path.’ That is because a mistaken first stage of the ‘Array Path’ is insufficient in helping them comprehend the second stage of the ‘Array Path.’” Uncle Fu seemed to have recalled the words that Chehou Yuan had said back then.Qin Yu carefully listened.At this moment, it was like Chehou Yuan was borrowing Uncle Fu’s mouth to tell Qin Yu some of the essential points of the ‘Array Path.’“Old master once said, that as an expert of formation arrays’ level of comprehension increases, he will also slowly understand how incredibly vast the ocean of formation arrays is. The old master had managed to comprehend the third stage of the ‘Array Path’. This allowed him to become the number one formation array expert in the Divine Realm, and also the number one artifacts craftsman in the Divine Realm. Yet even after he comprehended the unprecedented third stage, he still told me that he only felt as if the ocean of formation arrays had gotten even larger, he even said that the third stage definitely wasn’t the final destination of the ‘Array Path’.”A sea of learning without any horizon!Qin Yu had a strong shock in his mind. He also felt ashamed.He was shocked because the number one ‘Array Path’ expert of the Divine Realm that had managed to comprehend the third stage of the ‘Array Path’ had said that the third stage was not the final destination.He was ashamed because he had merely researched for ninety thousand years yet believed that he had managed to comprehend the true foundation of the ‘Array Path.’“A full bottle does not sway whereas a half-full bottle rocks.” Said Uncle Fu with a smile. “My old master told me that there are a lot of experts in the Divine Realm that research the ‘Array Path.’ There are many people in the Divine Realm that had researched the ‘Array Path’ for an even longer period of time compared to the old master. However, because of the fact that they had taken the wrong path when they first started comprehending the first stage of the ‘Array Path,’ they had spent numerous resources and time to comprehend the second stage of the ‘Array Path.’ Yet, the third stage was something that was completely impossible for them to comprehend.”Qin Yu slightly nodded.“My older master had continued to research. However, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to achieve a comprehension for the fourth stage of the ‘Array Path.’ Yet, my old master was extremely certain that he was able to feel the existence of the fourth stage of the ‘Array Path.’ Unfortunately, he was unable to reach it.” Sighed Uncle Fu.Chehou Yuan did not have any relatives. He merely had Uncle Fu as his servant. Usually, the only person he could talk about the helplessness that he experienced was Uncle Fu.All Qin Yu could do was sigh.The fourth stage of the ‘Array Path,’ what sort of stage was that?“I understand now. The more formation arrays I manage to analyze, the larger the portion of the ocean of formation arrays I’ll manage to comprehend which would in turn allow for an even more accurate comprehension of the foundation of formation arrays. Isn’t that right?” Qin Yu completely understood now.He had merely finished understanding the contents of the nine hundred scrolls of ‘Array Path.’ The foundation of the ‘Array Path’ that Qin Yu managed to comprehend was already incorrect. It was mostly because the number of formation array examples that he knew was too few.Uncle Fu nodded.“In that case, I’ll start analyzing numerous profound and complicated formation arrays. I believe that the more formation arrays I manage to analyze, the more accurate the first stage of the ‘Array Path’ that I end up comprehending in the future will be.” Qin Yu had directly cast away the foundation of the ‘Array Path’ that he had just managed to comprehend a while ago. With a peace of mind, Qin Yu had stepped onto the path of analyzing even more formation arrays.Upon seeing this scene, Uncle Fu smiled.When Qin Yu began analyzing, he suddenly thought of a question. “The Craftsman God Chehou Yuan said that there was a fourth stage to the ‘Array Path.’ However, he was still unable to reach that fourth stage. Could it be that the one billion years he spent comprehending the first stage of the ‘Array Path’ the second time were still not enough?”Upon thinking of this, Qin Yu was unable to keep his heart from shivering.A billion years was still not enough?Qin Yu felt as if he didn’t dare to continue thinking. If it was truly like that, then how much time would he have to spend analyzing more complicated formation arrays? After discarding all of his diverted thoughts, Qin Yu started to wholeheartedly calmly analyze more formation arrays.The time they had for mining was merely a thousand years. That was merely a hundred thousand years in the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm. When Qin Yu was called awake by Uncle Fu, he even sighed and said. “Why is mining merely a short thousand years?”Researching the formation arrays was indeed a thing that required a lot of time.After analyzing more formation arrays for another ten thousand years, Qin Yu became more and more aware of the vastness of the ocean of formation arrays. At the same time, he felt even more ashamed of the so called foundation of the formation arrays that he had previously comprehended.Only by standing at a higher place would one be able to better realize the vastness of the world.This was precisely how Qin Yu was feeling. The more he managed to comprehend, the more boundless he felt that the ocean of formation arrays was.Inside the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm. Hou Fei and Hei Yu were waiting outside the house. As for Qin Yu, he was still inside the house and had yet to come out.“Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, wait for me a while outside.” This was what Qin Yu had told Hou Fei and Hei Yu when they arrived outside of his house. After that, the two of them started waiting outside.However, a long period of time had already passed now.“What is big brother doing inside the house?” Puzzled, Hou Fei said.Hei Yu shook his head to show that he didn’t know either.After a hundred thousand years, Hou Fei and Hei Yu’s souls had reached the Mid Level Deity stage. To be exact, they had spent ninety thousand years to reach the Mid Level Deity stage. When Qin Yu first discovered that, he was even shocked for a long period of time.Although the Cloud Piercing Spear and the Black Stick allowed Hou Fei and Hei Yu to comprehend the spatial laws easier, to reach the Mid Level Deity stage in merely a hundred thousand years still surpassed Qin Yu’s expectations.He only realised after asking the two of them.The method which Hou Fei and Hei Yu used to comprehend the spatial laws these hundred thousand years was…. fighting!The two of them battled each other frantically. They comprehended the Dao through battles. They had originally comprehended the Heaven Startling Single Stick Strike through battles. And now, for the two of them to comprehend the spatial laws through battles with each other, their speed was extremely fast.Hou Fei and Hei Yu were outside the house. Qin Yu was still sitting cross-legged on the praying mat inside the house. At the moment when the allotted time of a hundred thousand years was reached, Qin Yu stopped his derivation of the formation arrays. After that… Qin Yu decided to go to the Stellar Space to check it out.After a hundred thousand years, how exactly had the ‘Stellar Space’ changed?Inside the Stellar Space.The current Stellar Space was composed of an extremely vast area. Numerous traces of ‘flour paste energy’ were flowing in from all directions. They flowed through the separation membrane between the Stellar Space and the flour paste space and gathered to the Origin in the middle.Currently, the core of Qin Yu’s cultivation, the Origin, had instead decreased in size. In the past, it was the size of a fist. However now, it was only the size of an egg. Furthermore, it was no longer dark gold colored. Instead, it was completely gray in color.That was to say… it had turned to a color similar to the ‘flour paste’ of the ‘flour paste space.’“I had already reached the Late stage Origin Stage twenty thousand years ago. In these twenty thousand years, its size has merely decreased by a bit.” Qin Yu’s awareness was observing the Origin with confusion.Qin Yu did not bother to prevent the evolution of the Origin. Instead, he allowed it to develop on its own.Qin Yu had observed the Origin twenty thousand years ago. At that time, the Origin had already reached the Late Stage. However, what sort of change had occurred in the twenty thousand years?“Its size had decreased slightly. Furthermore, its color had turned closer to that of the ‘flour paste.’ Eh?” Qin Yu was suddenly shocked. Surprised, Qin Yu discovered a peculiar matter.A very small space surrounding the egg sized gray sphere was actually distorted.“A rotating distorted space?” Qin Yu completely realized that this was a distorted space. That was because the limitless amount of flour paste energy was being absorbed with a rotation to them. Qin Yu did not discover this distorted space in the beginning.Qin Yu carefully observed the distorted space. Gradually… Qin Yu’s Awareness had completely fused with the Stellar Space.The Stellar Space was created by Qin Yu, thus it was not hard for Qin Yu to completely fuse his Awareness with the Stellar Space.Upon fusing himself with the Stellar Space, Qin Yu managed to more clearly sense the change that had occurred to the entire Stellar Space. With the Origin as the center, that tiny revolving distorted space was gradually expanding its range with a hard-to-detect speed.Qin Yu only managed to sense this change after fusing his Awareness with the Stellar Space.“Could it be that… this sort of revolving distorted space would at the end occupy the entire Stellar Space?” Thought Qin Yu in his heart.The current Qin Yu did not possess a high comprehension of the spatial laws. However, he still had a vague understanding. This vague understanding was telling Qin Yu that the current change of the Stellar Space ought to be following the greatest path to perfection. If he were to forcibly change it, it would only cause the Stellar Space to develop following an incorrect route.Qin Yu’s Awareness returned to his body. He opened his eyes and stood up.After opening the doors to his house, Qin Yu walked out with a smile on his face. He immediately saw the green meadows outside his house that were brimming with life as well as the clear-like-mirror lake. His mood was extremely good.“Fei Fei, Xiao Hei, sorry that I’ve made you two wait.” Said Qin Yu with a smile on his face.Hou Fei laughed out loud. He said. “It’s fine. Big brother, let’s go. We can finally leave the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine now. C’mon, let’s go quickly.”Qin Yu and his brothers did not wish to overstep the bounds too much. According to their plan, before they reach Heavenly Deity level, the three of them would only follow the rules inflexibly like everyone else. And in this short period of time, Qin Yu and his brothers had used the Jiang Lan’s Realm’s second layer to greatly increase their strength.Qin Yu and his brothers all delivered their respective three thousand six hundred Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. After that, a woman led them to an elegant building. There were a couple beautiful women in this elegant building.“Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu, right?” A purple clothed woman among them took out a jade slip. She read the jade slip with his Divine Awareness. She then raised her head and looked at Qin Yu and then. Then she said indifferently. “Mn, you all have delivered enough Divine Spiritual Stones in this past thousand years. From today on, you all are official members of the Divine Realm. Wait a moment, our people had already left to pick up your identity title plates.”After she finished saying that, that purple clothed woman stopped paying attention to Qin Yu and his brothers.Qin Yu and his brothers could only glance at each other and smile helplessly. In all these years, they had delivered the Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones numerous times and had already grown accustomed to the coldness of the staff.“Sis Li, I’ve heard that the Mid Captain Wang of the mine wanted to marry you? Mid Captain Wang is pretty good. At the very least, he’s a Mid Captain with a very high salary. He also owns a house in the Yuchi City for training.” Said a white clothed woman that was currently arranging the jade slips with a smile on her face.The purple clothed woman from earlier said indifferently. “I currently do not have any interest in that.”“Sis Li, stop always training to become a Heavenly Deity. Among all those High Level Deities, how many are capable of becoming a Heavenly Deity? The probability of becoming a Heavenly Deity is definitely too low. You can’t possibly spend all your time alone, right? It’s not bad for you to accept Mid Captain Wang’s proposal, no? Didn’t Mid Captain Wang ascend here from the same cosmic space as you? He has already chased after you for several hundred millions of years now.” Advised that white clothed woman.The purple clothed woman said indifferently. “Marriage? It is not impossible for me to marry him either.”“What must he do to make it possible?” That white clothed woman’s eyes immediately started shining.The purple clothed woman’s face still had an indifferent expression. “Only if he became a Heavenly Deity!” Immediately, that white clothed woman grew silent. If one becomes a Heavenly Deity, then there would be many people that would want to become his wife.That was because when a couple trains together, their souls would harmonize with each other allowing the other person to borrow the comprehension of the person with a higher soul to reach the Heavenly Deity level faster. Of course, borrowing the comprehension of others would merely reduce the troubles of becoming a Heavenly Deity, it was not a hundred percent successful.Qin Yu and his brothers glanced at each other. They could only remain silent.At this moment, a woman walked in from the outside. This woman handed the purple clothed woman three title plates. “Sis Li, here are three identity title plates. The village the three of them will be arranged to is also determined. It’s the Sealfeel Village!”The purple clothed woman received the three title plates. She then looked to the woman who handed her the title plate with a puzzled and surprised expression. “What did you say? They’re arranged to the Sealfeel Village? Are you certain?”
Chapter 500 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 9 – The Former Acquaintance in the Sealfeel VillageTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and Robin“That’s right, it’s the Sealfeel Village.” Said the woman who came to deliver the title plates with absolute certainty.The purple clothed woman nodded. She handed over the three title plates to Qin Yu and his brothers. “You all need to drip your blood on these three title plates in order to become their masters. Furthermore, by all means, do not lose them. As for you three going to the Sealfeel Village…”The purple clothed woman frowned as she glanced at Qin Yu and his brothers. “Did the three of you not give the person who allocates others to villages any Divine Spiritual Stones?”Qin Yu was startled.He still remembered the time when he met Song Hui and Shi Tian. That couple had even told Qin Yu and his brothers to bribe the person who allocate the people to the villages. However, Qin Yu and his brothers did not care about it. However, from what it appears now, it would seem that this Sealfeel Village ought to be an extremely lacking village.“That’s right. Why? Is this village located very far away from the Yuchi City where the Divine Spiritual Energy is extremely violent and incapable of being absorbed?” Qin Yu asked with a smile.“You knew.” This purple clothed woman looked to Qin Yu with a shocked expression. “You knew yet you still deliberately did that?”Seeing the youth before him still smiling even in such a situation, the purple clothed woman was instead shocked. Immediately after that, the purple clothed woman resumed her indifferent appearance. “Sealfeel Village, not only is it located far from the city where one cannot absorb the Divine Spiritual Energy, there is something even more important.”Qin Yu and his brothers were unable to help themselves from raising their brows in surprise.Seeing the three of them acting like this, the purple clothed woman instead felt a burst of comfortable sensation. Without giving Qin Yu and his brothers a chance to question her, she said. “Gao Xiaqi, come in quickly. Here are three newly promoted ascenders that are set to go to the Sealfeel Village. This mission shall be left to you.”A blond haired youth wearing a battle armor walked in. He frowned as he looked at the purple clothed woman. “You said the Sealfeel Village?”“That’s right. What? You don’t want to do the task?” The purple clothed woman looked at this Gao Xiaqi.Gao Xiaqi humped coldly. “I am not that afraid.”“If you have the skills, then change that General’s Army’s standardized battle armor.” Laughed that woman who was arranging the jade slips. This Gao Xiaqi however did not respond. Instead, he looked at Qin Yu and his brothers. “The three of you, follow me.”Qin Yu and his brothers followed this Gao Xiaqi. Right when they left the range of the mine, they saw a scene that surprised them… The standardized battle armor that Gao Xiaqi wore had changed. It turned into a robe.Qin Yu and his brothers all recalled the words that white clothed woman said when they were leaving… ‘If you have the skills, then change that General’s Army’s standardized battle armor.’“Brother Gao, why did you remove the standardized battle armor?” Qin Yu asked.This Gao Xiaqi glanced at Qin Yu. Instead of answering, he asked. “Are the three of you new recruits that have just ascended a thousand years ago?”“That’s right, what about it?” Qin Yu asked in confusion.Hou Fei and Hei Yu also stared at this Gao Xiaqi. Gao Xiaqi however looked to Qin Yu for a long time with an unbelieving expression. “Nothing. It’s just, in a mere thousand years, these two people have reached the Mid Level Deity level. And you… I am unable to even see through you. I reckon you’ve reached the High Level Deity level, right? How is that possible? It’s only been a thousand years. Could it be… that the three of you have ascended from the Heaven’s Will Realm?”“Ascended from the Heaven’s Will Realm?” Qin Yu and his brothers were all puzzled.Gao Xiaqi however, sighed without a concern for the confused Qin Yu and them. “The same level cosmic spaces in the lower realm still possesses some differences. In the weaker ones, for example the Green Devil Realm, there would only be one that ascends in several hundred millions of years. As for the stronger ones like the Heaven’s Will Realm, one would ascend here every couple hundred years.”Qin Yu and his brothers glanced at each other.In the cosmic spaces, the Mortal Realms were all of the same level. The Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, the Dinosaur Realm and other cosmic spaces were also of the same level. Then the Divine Realm was another level. The number of cosmic spaces of the same level as the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was very large indeed. However, even though they were of the same level, there was still the difference of weak and strong.For there to be an ascender every couple hundred years, the frequency was indeed very high.The Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, in normal circumstances, including even the Dark Star Realm, would only have an ascender in several millions of years.“Some of the powerful experts of the Heaven’s Will Realm, they would reach the Mid Level Deity in a mere thousand years after ascending to the Divine Realm… I saw that the three of you were all this powerful. That’s why I thought you were from the Heaven’s Will Realm.” Said Gao Xiaqi with a smile.Qin Yu lightly smiled and said. “There are numerous lower realm cosmic spaces. For the people that cultivate very fast, they are not necessarily all from the Heaven’s Will Realm.”“Hey, Brother Gao, why did you change the appearance of the battle armor that you wore?” Hou Fei asked. Qin Yu and Hei Yu also looked to Gao Xiaqi. This was something they were all confused about.Gao Xiaqi looked to Qin Yu and his brothers. He said helplessly. “Could it be that the three of you do not know about it? Allocating ascenders to the villages at the beginning was an extremely important matter. You all ought to have given some appreciation fee. If you did, then you would not be arranged to some remote village far from the city like this Sealfeel Village.”“What’s wrong with the Sealfeel Village? What does that have to do with you changing the appearance of your battle armor?” Hou Fei continued to ask.Gao Xiaqi gulped a mouthful of saliva and said. “You all need to be a bit more careful. For such a remote village like the Sealfeel Village, not only must villagers pay taxes to the City Governor once every thousand years, they also have to pay taxes to some powerful influential bosses!”“Powerful influential bosses?” Qin Yu and his brothers glanced at each other.“That is to say, the Mountain Rulers!” Said Gao Xiaqi explicitly. “Think about it, only twenty million people can live in the Yuchi City. The remaining two hundred million people are all living outside. The people living outside all live a much more difficult life. Furthermore, those that have ascended here, who among them was not a formidable person in their original cosmic space before they ascended? Thus, a lot of them decided to go to remote regions and occupy a mountain and claim themselves the ruler!”Hei Yu frowned. Hou Fei instead blurted out. “Motherfucker, aren’t they just becoming bandits?”Qin Yu however understood it very well.For all those experts that had ascended to the Divine Realm, if they were to be at the lowest level the entire time, it was extremely normal for people to revolt.“The City Governor doesn’t care about that?” Qin Yu asked.Gao Xiaqi laughed grimly and said. “City Governor? The City Governor would only occasionally put up an appearance. As long as those powers do not affect the rule of the City Governor, the City Governor would not bother dealing with them. Furthermore, the number of cities in the Divine Realm is fixed. There are too many people in the Divine Realm, if those people were to kill each other, the City Governor could care less about them.”“It is not easy to occupy a mountain and claim oneself as a ruler as all the villages are filled with Deities. If those Mountain Bandit Rulers force the village residents too hard, won’t the residents also rebel against them?” Qin Yu said.Gao Xiaqi sighed and said. “You’re mistaken. While there are many that have occupied mountains and claim themselves rulers, only the large powers would dare to ask the villages to pay taxes. Most of the small powers would not dare to do such a thing.”“Large powers? How large are they?” Qin Yu frowned.Gao Xiaqi sighed and said. “There are three large powers outside of Yuchi City. If the City Governor wanted to, he would indeed be able to eliminate these three large powers. However, the City Governor doesn’t want to do that. That is because if he wants to eliminate these three large powers, at the very least several tens of Heavenly Deities would die. Tell me, for the City Governor who possesses a total of over a hundred Heavenly Deities underneath him, would he be willing to spend such a large price to eliminate them?”Qin Yu and his brothers were shocked.It would actually require the death of several tens of Heavenly Deities to eliminate these three powers?“As far as I know, the Sealfeel Village is within the territory of one of the three large powers, the Black Dragon Pool. And the leader of the Black Dragon Pool is one of the top five super experts within the territory of Yuchi City!” Gasped Gao Xiaqi.Qin Yu and his brothers immediately removed all thoughts of resisting.A super expert that was one of the top five super experts among the territory of the Yuchi City, why would he be a boss of bandits?“I suspect you all understood the reason why I changed the appearance of the standardized battle armor now, right? Although that Black Dragon Pool would not truly become enemies with the City Governor, but for nobodies like us, we are their favorite target to bully. As for ordinary people like you three, they would at the very most rob you and would not take your lives.” Said Gao Xiaqi helplessly.After leaving the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine, under the guidance of Gao Xiaqi, Qin Yu and his brothers walked for three entire days and night before they arrived at the remote Sealfeel Village. At the same time, Qin Yu had also came to learn a bit about the territory under the Yuchi City.The closer one was to the Yuchi City, the safer one would be. For remote regions further away from the Yuchi City, they are territories that belonged to different large bandit groups. The status of these mountain bandits were all different too.For example, the three large bandits powers like the ‘Black Dragon Pool’ dared to collect taxes from all the major villages of the remote region. They naturally were the ones that lived the most comfortably. As for some of the small bandit powers, they instead relied on robbing and killing.For remote villages like the Sealfeel Village, they were the unlucky ones. Not only must they pay taxes to the City Governor, they must also pay taxes to the Black Dragon Pool.The Sealfeel Village occupied an extremely vast area. From a single glance, one can see at the very least several thousands of houses. Qin Yu and his brothers nodded in their hearts. At least this Sealfeel Village was not too desolate.“There are over ten thousand people living in the Sealfeel Village. It classifies as a small scale village. Large scale villages all have populations of several hundred thousands.” Gao Xiaqi said.Qin Yu nodded in agreement. There were two hundred million people outside of the Yuchi City. For two hundred million people, a village of over ten thousand being considered a small village was extremely normal.“This is the house of the Village Chief. The Village Chief will tell you three all you need to know.” Gao Xiaqi walked to a courtyard manor in a very familiar sense. The doors to this courtyard manor were wide open. There were currently three middle aged men chatting and laughing within the courtyard manor.Gao Xiaqi walked over. He went to the tallest middle aged man among the three and said. “Village Chief Fan Xu, you ought to have received the notification already. These are three new ascenders that have been appointed to this village. From today on, they will be members of your Sealfeel Village.”Fan Xu was at least two meters tall. Although his size was extremely huge, his appearance was that of a gentle and quiet person.Holding a feathered fan, Fan Xu walked over to Qin Yu and his brothers with a smile on his face. “I am the Village Chief of the Sealfeel Village, Fan Xu. You three ought to be Qin Yu, Hei Yu and Hou Fei, right? These are the things that you all must pay attention to in the village. I’ve already prepared them for you.” As he said that, Fan Xu handed Qin Yu and them a jade slip.Qin Yu received the jade slip. “Village Chief Fan Xu, I am Qin Yu. This is my second brother Hou Fei. This is my third brother Hei Yu.”Qin Yu swept through this jade slip with his Divine Awareness. He then cupped his hands respectfully and said. “Village Chief, in that case us three brothers shall not disturb you anymore. Goodbye. Brother Gao Xiaqi, thank you for bringing us here. Goodbye.” Qin Yu and his brothers straightforwardly left.“Eh? Seeing what I had written on my jade slip about paying taxes twice, he was actually not shocked in the slightest and left so straightforwardly. Truly strange.” Said Fan Xu with a confused expression as he flipped his feathered fan. He then looked to Gao Xiaqi.“That’s right, I’ve told them about it on the road.” Said Gao Xiaqi with a smile on his face. “Village Chief Fan Xu, I shall also take my leave, goodbye.”Fan Xu nodded. He then turned around and proceed to walk back to his two friends. He was still muttering. “Three brothers? Three brothers ascending together? That’s truly rare.”After seeing the information in that jade slip, Qin Yu came to know about some important things.The taxes were to be paid once every thousand years. For the City Governor, they were to pay a thousand Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones once every thousand years. As for the Black Dragon Pool, they were to pay a thousand and five hundred Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones once every thousand years.There are primarily three methods for an average person to earn Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones. The first was to be like the ascenders and mine in the Divine Spiritual Stone Mine. After a thousand years, other than the Divine Spiritual Stones being paid for fees and taxes, one would usually have quite many remaining. The second was to weed out Divine Spiritual Stones from exhausted mines. If one were lucky, one would also be able to find them from those mines. As for the third method, it was… working.One could work for the City Governor. One could work for those that are rich and powerful. There were many different kinds of work. As for the salary, they’d be paid in Divine Spiritual Stones.Of course, other than these three methods, there were also other ways. For example, going to the wilderness and searching for rare materials or precious medicinal herbs, ores and such. One could find those and then bring it to the city and sell them.Merely, jobs like that were relatively dangerous. One must also possess a great eyesight in order to find rare materials or precious medicinal herbs. It was not a task that ordinary people could do.Qin Yu and his brothers thus began living peacefully in the Sealfeel Village. The three of them casually build a courtyard manor. There would usually also be a lot of villagers coming over to greet them. For the majority of the time, Qin Yu and his brothers spent their time in the Jiang Lan’s Realm. However, they would still occasionally come out from the Jiang Lan’s Realm and their courtyard manor once everyday. Thus, they had also become familiar with quite many villagers.Soon, three hundred years have passed.Qin Yu and his brothers had spent their days very peacefully. And today, it was the date of the tax payment. This time around, they are to pay taxes to the Black Dragon Pool. The date of the tax payment for the Black Dragon Pool was different from the date of the tax payment for the City Governor.All of the villagers of Sealfeel Village had gathered in front of the entrance of the Village Chief’s house. Not a single person dared to not pay the taxes for the Black Dragon Pool. If they were to not pay taxes to the City Governor, they would only be punished. However, the people of the Black Dragon Pool would instead directly kill those who refused to pay taxes.“Brother Li Liao, how is it?” Two men who were walking next to each other started talking.“Xing Yuan, I am truly at a loss. Zi Yun’s parents are truly too stubborn. Although you and Zi Yun love each other, her parents are determined that they will only marry their daughter to you if you manage to purchase a house in the Yuchi City.” Said Li Liao helplessly.Xing Yuan took a deep sigh.This Xing Yuan was precisely the previous Gold Punishment Lord of the Dark Star Realm. When the Gold Punishment Lords of the Dark Star Realm ascend to the Divine Realm, they too would become only an ordinary person. He did not bribe the people who allocate others to the villages and was thus allocated to this location.Back in the mine, Qin Yu and his brothers had come out too infrequently. Thus, they did not manage to encounter Xing Yuan.“Two million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones, I won’t be able to pull out that amount even if you threatened to kill me.” Xing Yuan clenched his fists. He was filled with anger.All those years in the Dark Star Realm, he had never fallen in love. After arriving to the Divine Realm, he had never thought about falling in love either. He merely wanted to train. However, after meeting Zi Yun, the two of them, male and female, both started feeling hot in their heads and became frantically in love with each other.Zi Yun had grown up in the Divine Realm. Zi Yun’s parents were extremely and completely determined that they wanted their daughter to live a better life and not worry about everyday life in the Sealfeel Village. They were determined that they wanted Xing Yuan to purchase a house in Yuchi City before coming to them to ask for their daughter’s hand in marriage.“Xing Yuan, don’t be too heartbroken. As men, we merely need to continue training. Once we reach the Heavenly Deity level one day, won’t there be so many women who will wish to marry you that they’ll cram your doorsteps apart.” Li Liao consoled. However, Li Liao himself also knew how hard it was to become a Heavenly Deity.Xing Yuan sighed. “Brother Li Liao, you don’t understand my frame of mind.”Once one had fallen in love, it is impossible for one to climb back out.Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded.“Eh? Brother Xing Yuan?”Xing Yuan turned his head around to look at the voice. He saw three youths walking over together. The smile as well as the manner of the youth who lead the three, Xing Yuan immediately recognized who he was. With astonishment, he said. “Liu Xing, it’s you. You’ve also ascended to the Divine Realm?”
Chapter 501 - Book 15
Volume 15 – Splitting the Heaven and Earth Apart – Chapter 10 – Lending a HandTranslated by: PumpkinEdited by: Phillip and RobinThe moment when Qin Yu saw Xing Yuan, he was completely surprised.There was a vast number of villages outside of Yuchi City, never had he expected that they would actually be allocated to the same village. Furthermore, he had actually never run into Xing Yuan in the past three hundred years in the village. Qin Yu understood that this was mostly because he had come out too infrequently as he had spent the majority of his time researching the ‘Array Path’ in the second layer space of the Jiang Lan’s Realm.“Xing Yuan, you also know Qin Yu and his brothers?” Li Liao said in surprise.Qin Yu and his brothers all knew Li Liao as Li Liao was the sort of person that one becomes familiar with right away as he would be able to chat a whole lot with anyone.“Qin Yu?” Xing Yuan was slightly surprised.Qin Yu smiled and said. “Brother Xing Yuan, I actually have two names. In the Immortal Realm, Devil Realm and Demon Realm, I was called Qin Yu. When I was in the Dark Star Realm, I was called Liu Xing. You can just call me Qin Yu in the future.”“So that was the case.” Xing Yuan nodded.Even now, Xing Yuan did not suspect Qin Yu’s identity. He had thought that Qin Yu created the name Qin Yu because he had frequently wandered the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm.“Brother Xing Yuan, let me introduce you to them. This is my second brother Hou Fei. This is my third brother Hei Yu.” Seeing Xing Yuan, Qin Yu’s mood had become extremely good. Hou Fei and Hei Yu both greeted Xing Yuan with a smile.Xing Yuan also squeezed out a smile and greeted them.Qin Yu had already felt that Xing Yuan had some sort of difficulty when he first saw him. And now, he was even more perceptive of that. Immediately, he asked. “Brother Xing Yuan, I see that you have something you’re worried about?”“Xing Yuan, look.” Li Liao suddenly said as he pointed to a distant place.They saw a middle aged couple bringing a purple clothed woman walking over to the Village Chief’s house. Xing Yuan’s gaze immediately fixed onto that purple clothed woman. His gaze was fixed onto her for a very long time, not leaving her for a second.“Big brother, this Xing Yuan has fallen for that girl.” Hou Fei giggled and said beside Qin Yu in a low voice.Qin Yu and Hei Yu also had smiles on their faces.“Brother Xing Yuan, never had I expected that in such a short period of time after your ascension to the Divine Realm, our Dark Star Realm’s Gold Punishment Lord would’ve found a woman that he loves. This is truly something that I must congratulate you for. Haha…” Said Qin Yu in a jokingly tone.Contrary to Qin Yu’s expectations, Xing Yuan instead gave a long sigh. “Gold Punishment Lord? In the Divine Realm, regardless of what position one had in the lower realm, it is all useless.”Qin Yu nodded in understanding. “For the experts of the Divine Realm, there are those that have grown up in the Divine Realm, as well as those that have ascended from a lower realm. There are tens of thousands of cosmic spaces like the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. In the Divine Realm, the status one had in the lower realm is indeed of no use.”“However, Brother Xing Yuan, if you like that woman, why are you sighing?” Qin Yu asked in curiosity.Li Liao who stood to the side also shook his head. Xing Yuan shook his head, sighed and said. “I am ashamed. Regarding this, it was during the first day that I arrived on this Sealfeel Village. At that time, I ran into…”“Zi Yun and I are both interested in each other. However, her parents’ demands. You must know of my difficulty.” Xing Yuan had a face filled with bitterness.Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Hei Yu glanced at each other.The magnificent Dark Star Realm’s Gold Punishment Lord was actually vexed to such an extent because of two million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones.“Xing Yuan, leave this matter to me.” Said Qin Yu directly with his Divine Awareness Voice Transmission.Hearing the voice in his mind, Xing Yuan was unable to refrain himself from looking at Qin Yu in shock. In the Divine Realm, if one wanted to send a voice transmission via Divine Awareness, one must at the very least be able to extend one’s Divine Awareness past one’s body. However, in order to accomplish extending one’s Divine Awareness past one’s body, one must at the very least reach the Mid Level Deity stage.Qin Yu had ascended later than him. In merely over a thousand years, how was it possible that Qin Yu had reached the Mid Level Deity?What Xing Yuan didn’t know, was that Qin Yu’s soul’s level was not that of a Mid Level Deity but instead that of a High Level Deity.“Xing Yuan, do not be surprised. A house in the Yuchi City. Good. After we finish paying the taxes, I’ll go to the Yuchi City with you and purchase a house. What do you think?” Qin Yu continued to talk to Xing Yuan via Divine Awareness Voice Transmission.Xing Yuan was unable to do Divine Awareness Voice Transmission. Thus, all he could do was nod his head thankfully.Merely, Xing Yuan was puzzled in his heart as to how Qin Yu was able to take out a large amount like two million Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones?Outside the courtyard manor of the Sealfeel Village’s Village Chief. At this moment, more than ten thousand people were gathered. Who would dare not to come to the tax collection from the people of the Black Dragon Pool?When Qin Yu and them arrived, they discovered that there were thirty men wearing battle armors standing at the frontmost location. The leader of those thirty men, a youth, was looking at everyone present with a chilly gaze.“Everyone, like before, everyone that has managed to pass the Divine Tribulation will have to pay a tax of a thousand five hundred Low Quality Divine Spiritual Stones every thousand years. Come one at a time.” That youth said in a clear voice.Immediately, the villagers of Sealfeel Village walked forward one by one. Once a person paid their taxes, that youth accepted the Divine Spiritual Stones with a flip of his hand.“Storage Divine Artifact.” Seeing this scene before him, Qin Yu was unable to refrain his shock. “A mere subordinate of the Black Dragon Pool actually also possesses a Storage Divine Artifact. This Black Dragon Pool is indeed amazing.”What Qin Yu didn’t know, was that although the Black Dragon Pool was a very enormous power, they still did not possess that many Storage Divine Artifacts. Only during the moments when collecting taxes would the group that goes to collect taxes be entitled to use them for the time being. After they had finished using it, they were to return it back to the higher authorities.“Big brother, look.” Hou Fei pulled Qin Yu’s shoulder. Qin Yu looked to the location where Hou Fei pointed to. Qin Yu saw that Zi Yun and Xing Yuan were currently being extremely intimate with each other. Qin Yu was unable to refrain from smiling.One by one, the villagers went up to pay their taxes.Zi Yun and Xing Yuan also walked up one after the other.“Little sister Zi Yun.” Upon seeing Zi Yun, that youth immediately started smiling. “You haven’t forgotten your big brother Qiyan right?”Zi Yan wore a purple gauze jacket. Her long ink-colored fine black hair poured down her shoulder like torrents. She was indeed a very classy beautiful woman. Zi Yun lightly smiled and said. “How could I possibly forget about big brother Qiyan? Never had I expected that in just a million years, big brother Qiyan would manage to reach such a level in the Black Dragon Pool.”“Little Yun, you do not have to pay taxes.” Liu Qiyan laughed and said.Xing Yuan who stood beside Zi Yan frowned. That Liu Qiyan glanced at Xing Yuan and laughed. “Little Yun, who is this Low Level Deity? Is he a new servant that your family has hired?”Servant?Xing Yuan and Zi Yun’s expressions both slightly changed.“Little Yun, I have personally come to the Sealfeel Village this time around for two things. First is to collect taxes and the second is to purpose for your hand in marriage from your parents. The two of us are childhood sweethearts who have grown up together in the Divine Realm. And now, I could also be considered as having achieved some success. I presume you’ll surely not refuse that, right?”Liu Qiyan completely ignored the existence of Xing Yuan as he spoke.Zi Yun’s parents from behind them walked forward. A smile was on their faces. They seemed to be extremely easy to get close to. The gazes they looked at their daughter Zi Yan with were also extremely loving.“Qiyan, we cannot allow our Zi Yun to go to the Black Dragon Pool and suffer hardships with you.” Zi Yun’s mother said.Liu Qiyan immediately said. “Aunty, you are someone who have watched me grow up. You also know of my feelings for Little Yun. Tell me, do you think I would let Little Yun suffer hardships? After all these years of being in the Black Dragon Pool, I can be considered to have attained a position for myself. In the East City District of the Yuchi City, I have just recently purchased a house. In the future, Little Yun could just go and live comfortably there.”Zi Yun’s mother’s eyes immediately shined. Zi Yun’s father also nodded his head lightly.Liu Qiyan immediately turned his gaze to Zi Yun.“I cannot.” Zi Yun immediately said.Liu Qiyan did not say anything in response. Instead, he looked to Zi Yun’s mother. Sure enough… Zi Yun’s mother frowned. She reprimanded her. “Little Yun, your big brother Qiyan has grown up together with you. Could it be that all the years of feelings that you two have for each other is inferior to the one that you have together with this Xing Yuan who has just ascended from the lower realm? Instead of training hard, he decided to pursue love and affection. What sort of accomplishment would such a person attain in the future?”Xing Yuan was stunned by her speech.“Aunty, Little Yun might just be momentarily deceived by that man’s graceful words and flowery speech. For such a person that have just ascended to swindle Little Yun like so, this man who lives off a woman, his sweet speech and honeyed words skill is truly too amazing. You cannot blame Little Yun for falling for this man’s lies.” Liu Qiyan had a set of sincere expression as he said those words.Zi Yun was so angry that her complexion had turned deathly white. As for Xing Yuan, he was looking at Liu Qiyan coldly.“Little Yun, this man is merely a Low Level Deity, how would he be able to protect you? Anyone in the Divine Realm is capable of easily ravaging him. This sort of man is unworthy of you to act like so.” Liu Qiyan persuaded.“Not long ago, I reached the High Level Deity stage. Although a High Level Deity cannot be considered as anything much in the Divine Realm, at the very least I have the ability to defend myself. Furthermore, standing behind me are the Heavenly Deity level experts of the Black Dragon Pool. At the very least, in the range of the Yuchi City, no one would dare to humiliate any one of us from the Black Dragon Pool.”Liu Qiyan’s tone was extremely gentle. However, everyone could sense the disdain he had for Xing Yuan in his speech.The residents of the Sealfeel Village also started discussing among themselves. An overwhelming majority of the people were in favor of Liu Qiyan. They believed that Zi Yun should go with Liu Qiyan. As for the number of people that supported Xing Yuan, they were extremely few. As for Qin Yu and his brothers, they were standing on the side watching.Xing Yuan clenched his fists tightly. His finger joints had turned pale.However, could he resist? His opponent was a High Level Deity. Furthermore, he had a small squadron beneath him composed of mostly Mid Level Deities. What could a Low Level Deity like him who had just ascended be able to do?“A bandit from the Black Dragon Pool actually dares to talk so big like so. It seemed that being a bandit is a glorious thing.”“Who is it?!” Liu Qiyan’s expression immediately changed. He immediately looked to the direction where the voice came from.Qin Yu was smiling. Hou Fei and Hei Yu were beside Qin Yu. The three of them walked over like so. “What? Could it be that what I said was wrong? A little Black Dragon Pool’s bandit underling like you actually dares to act so arrogant, truly…” As Qin Yu said that, he even shook his head and sighed a couple times.Liu Qiyan frowned as he looked at Qin Yu. “Who are you? I have grown up in the Sealfeel Village, I know almost everyone from the Sealfeel Village, where did you come from?”Liu Qiyan was able to sense that Qin Yu possessed strength no weaker than his. Thus, he had grown a bit cautious and did not talk to him with the disdain that he possessed when talking with Xing Yuan.“Ascender.” Qin Yu smiled and said. “A Deity that has ascended a bit over a thousand years ago. What about it?”“Little Yun, follow me home.” Zi Yun’s mother suddenly frowned and said.Qin Yu immediately turned to Zi Yun’s mother, he slightly bowed and said. “Aunty, I am a good friend of Xing Yuan. Brother Xing Yuan had managed to find a precious medicinal herb in the wilderness a while ago. The name of it was ‘White Feeler Grass.’ I also possess some connections in the Yuchi City and have just sold this White Feeler Grass and obtained three million Low Level Divine Spiritual Stones for it. I have yet to give these three million Low Level Divine Spiritual Stones to Brother Xing Yuan yet.”Qin Yu flipped his hand and a bag appeared out from thin air into Qin Yu’s hand.“Storage Divine Artifact?” Upon seeing this scene, Zi Yun’s parents, Liu Qiyan and a large number of people all opened their eyes wide in shock.Liu Qiyan was extremely shocked. “A High Level Deity after ascending over a bit over a thousand years? Storage Divine Artifact? Furthermore, having the means to sell medicinal herbs in the Yuchi City? What sort of background does this guy have exactly?”Liu Qiyan was merely a low level underling in the Black Dragon Pool. He knew that the Black Dragon Pool’s Lord Black Dragon would not take care of someone with power for a mere underling like him.“Brother Xing Yuan, what are you standing there for? Since you’ve given me the White Feeler Grass, I naturally have to pay you after I sold it. Here are a total of three hundred High Level Divine Spiritual Stones, you’d best count them properly.” Qin Yu urged.Xing Yuan woke back up. He immediately said. “Brother Qin Yu, you truly have my thanks. I am merely shocked that this White Feeler Grass actually sold for such a high price.” As he said that, Xing Yuan outstretched his hand and received that bag of Divine Spiritual Stones. He opened the bag and looked at it slightly. No matter how calm Xing Yuan was, he was still unable to refrain his hands from shaking.“Big brother Xing Yuan, let me see.” Contrary to expectations, Zi Yun was extremely excited. She promptly opened the bag to see. The only reason why her parents didn’t agree to her being together with Xing Yuan was because he possessed no house.Somewhat emotional, Xing Yuan raised his head and looked to Qin Yu and his brothers. What he saw was Qin Yu and his brothers winking at him.
