~Three Years Later~
On the Central Continent within the Imperial Palace of the Xingyun Royal Family, both the crown prince and the Emperor was seen within the large throne room.
“Father, can you explain to me why I still have to suppress my cultivation at the peak of the Foundation Building Realm? I have since reached that realm six years ago!”The Emperor stared at his son as he paced back and forth below the stairs leading up to the throne he sat on. He didn’t mind his son’s tone of voice since he could understand his frustrations. He himself couldn’t imagine being forced to stay at a bottleneck when it was possible to break through it, as well as watch others younger than him surpass his cultivation realm.The Emperor got up from his throne and approacheAfter thinking for a moment, Long Wei wanted to know more so he asked again, "You said it was a Planetary event, does that mean our Daiyu planet is not the only planet that will experience it?"Longmin nodded his head after hearing his brother's question.He then said, "I'm sure father and grand uncle told you this but it will be very beneficial for yours and the other's Legendary Physiques, as all the Qi between heaven and earth, such as the extreme Yang and Yin Qi as well as the Six Qi Elements, will be erupting together. This mixture of Qi can lead to the unlocking of Legendary Physiques."Hearing that explanation, everything finally clicked in Long Wei's mind as to why his father and grand-uncle were so serious about this event. However, he couldn't help but frown as he thought about something else."Why do I have to suppress my cultivation
“It’s my Soaring Cloud Steps.” Hearing that, Long Wei’s suddenly felt his stomach churn as he thought to himself, ‘Why did it have to be his Soaring Cloud Steps? He’s already fast as it is, if his Soaring Cloud Steps reaches the Mastery realm, then I’ll have a hard time keeping up with his movements like before. Dammit! Maybe I should have learned a movement technique after all, instead of focusing on my Heavenly Sword Scripture and forsaking everything else for attacking power.’ Long Wei began regretting his past decision. ‘Stupid old man, how can you call yourself my master if you went ahead and allow me to make such an unwise decision. Weren’t you supposed to be guiding me and ensuring that such things didn’t happen?! I thought you were some combat expert for father to have appointed you as the Battle Division’s Head Elder, but your nothing more than a crazy old man that likes torturing little kids.’ &nb
With a loud swoosh, a magic vessel that was nearly a hundred meters large, pierced through the air while causing massive wind friction as it flew above the massive ocean between the Wu Continent and the Central Continent.On the bow of the boat, Longmin and Long Wei, who was in his disguise, was seated a meter apart while being surrounded by eight black-robed bodyguards who each gave off an eerie feeling.These eight bodyguards were some of the elites from the Wu Clan’s Battle Division, who were hardened warriors that had gone through hellish tempering.Just looking at their stone-cold expression as they stood guard silently with an aura of slaughter surrounding their bodies, anyone who was weak mentally would have soiled themselves if they were to face these men in battle.Long Wei, who was still feeling bad about before, turn to his right to look at his brother, who had been ignoring him sinc
In one of the eight states of the Central Continent, was a small almost remote town with a population of several thousand people. Both mortals and low-level cultivators live here, with the cultivators following the Emperors orders of not involving the common mortals on the surface, but would go against them in the shadows. The Emperor’s power might be great, but his influence would stretch too thin if he had to deal with the small-time cultivators in these semi-large and small towns. So there were cultivators that would do despicable things to the common folks in dark, not fearing any consequences. There was a four-story Inn somewhere on the outskirts of the town’s center. In one of the rooms on its third floor, Li Shen could be seen sitting cross-legged in a meditative state. Suddenly, a knock came from the front door that echoed throughout the room. Li Shen swiftly opened his eyes and stare
After staring for a moment in surprise, Long Wei walked up to the girl on the floor and said, “I’m sorry..um..” Long Wei paused for a moment, but then he saw strands of the girl’s white hair and he continued and said, “..miss, or you okay?”Just as Long Wei reached out to lift the girl, she suddenly flinched backwards before she pulled the cover over her head, hiding her hair.After standing up, she bowed to Long Wei, who take it as an apology, before quickly turning around and hurrying off.“Huh?… that’s not strange at all.”As Long Wei said, Longmin eyes narrowed as he looked at the girl who just quickly turned a corner.“Elder brother, that girl isn’t human.”“What?!” Long Wei turned around surprised at his brother’s words.“Then, if
Within the Imperial Palace of the Xingyun Dynasty, Bao was within the training grounds attached to his courtyard.Sitting in a cross-legged position, he had his eyes closed as he took deep breaths before releasing them slowly.Each time he did, the Fire Qi in the surroundings would dance around erratically as if they were in a crazed state.Suddenly, a figure in red robes appeared a distance away. He was the head of the crown prince’s army.Since Bao was the Crown Prince and would eventually take the throne, the Emperor had entrusted a sizable army for him to rule over and manage. This was to develop his leadership skills, as well as make him get familiar with having command over his subjects.After the red-robed man appeared Bao did not open his eyes and only said, “Unit Commander Zhang, what would warrant you interrupting my meditation session?”<
Within an open area in Bao’s courtyard, Long Wei and Longmin along with Bao were seated at a table.Suddenly a servant came up to the table with a tray and place down three cups of tea and a small pot for them. After that, he bowed and left the area.Picking up the tea in front of him and after blowing on it for a moment, Bao took a casual sip, before speaking up and said, “So you're saying that a Rank 5 demonic beast was acting like a bodyguard for a girl, who was supposedly a demonic beast as well?”After Bao summarize what he had been told by Long Wei, he stared at him wanting confirmation.Long Wei nodded at him and said, “Yeah that’s the gist of it.”Thinking for a moment, Bao’s expression turn serious, which was immediately noticed by Long Wei.Bao then turn to Long Wei, and with a serious expression he asked, &
“The shocking events that played out at the wedding went something like this…”“Who everyone thought to be Wuzhou was actually his elder brother that had used a special ability of the Fire Phoenix Beast Clan’s quasi Divine treasure, to disguise as him. During the wedding, he was close enough to Dongmei to take her hostage and threaten the Ice Phoenix Clan. In order to save her daughter, the Ice Phoenix Beast King proposed to take her own life but have the Fire Phoenix Beast King swear a blood oath to not raise a hand at the Ice Phoenix Beast Clan until another Saint Realm cultivator appears in their ranks. And just like that, the Ice Phoenix Beast king killed herself after the Fire Phoenix made the oath. But as you can imagine, the Fire Phoenix Beast King broke the blood oath and started exterminating the Ice Phoenix Bloodline with their main target being the daughter of Dongmei and Wuzhou. Even though Wuzhou was not liked by his f
