Chapter 1813 - 1796: Overbearing Choice
Gazed upon by the deep eyes of the Blue Demon, Xiao Ye felt a sense of vigilance, momentarily unclear of the other’s intentions.
"You cultivate the Taichu Ancient Scripture, yet have not completely broken through to the Heavenly Spirit Realm, and you were able to kill Isen."
"If you break the curse and completely break through, even I may not be able to deal with you."
"Given this, why should I punish you, creating an enemy for the future out of thin air? After all, the possibility of you breaking the curse and fully advancing to the Heavenly Spirit Realm is high."
"Moreover, you’ve also caused significant losses to both the Wancang Star Domain and the Sirius Star Domain, thus balancing things out."
The Blue Demon seemed to perceive Xiao Ye’s confusion, speaking again, casually resolving the punishment that the various forces in the Spirit Capital speculated about, making it disappear.
He is an Invincible Spirit Rank expert, long accustomed to such slaughters, and his Law Enforcement Envoys have been changed many times.
"Then, Lord Blue Demon, why did you summon me?" Xiao Ye let out a breath of relief, curiously asking.
Since Blue Demon had planned not to punish him, why wait until today to announce it and summon him?
"Xiao Ye, do you know what it means to be an Invincible Spirit Rank expert?" The Blue Demon set down tools and walked to the stone table, leisurely brewed tea, beckoning Xiao Ye to come and drink.
"An Invincible Spirit Rank expert should refer to those possessing invincible strength within the Spirit Rank, correct?" Xiao Ye walked over and sat down.
"It seems your understanding is still quite shallow." The Blue Demon smiled slightly.
"The so-called Invincible Spirit Rank experts are merely titles used by ignorant Spirit Rank martial artists from Star Domain forces to refer to us."
"After all, our strength within the Star Domain forces indeed counts as invincible, but in the Void Great Realm, it is far from being the case."
The tea boiled, a refreshing fragrance wafting through the air, and the Blue Demon poured tea for Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye tasted it while listening intently.
"It is rumored that among the Three Thousand Great Realms, there exists the Saint List, a ranking list of Saint Rank experts, including powerful Saint Rank experts from various clans."
"And within the Void Great Realm, there is also the Realm Spirit List, recording a thousand peak Spirit Rank experts from the Void Great Realm."
"For instance, people like myself and Xu Wancang are all listed on the Realm Spirit List, around the nine hundredth rank."
"In your eyes, an Invincible Spirit Rank expert ranked at the bottom of the Realm Spirit List, isn’t that quite ironic?" The Blue Demon said with a face full of emotion.
Hiss!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye gasped sharply.
The Realm Spirit List that recorded a thousand Spirit Rank experts from the Void Great Realm?
Even the Blue Demon was merely ranked at the bottom of the Realm Spirit List, the weight of this list was truly intimidating.
Despite his current strength allowing him to slaughter Law Enforcement Envoys, he probably couldn’t even touch the edge of this Realm Spirit List.
"Nine hundredth rank, that’s already the limit for me, because our realms are all at the Late Stage of Heavenly Spirit Realm; moving forward means Saint Transformation, so we don’t even qualify to serve the Taixu Great Saint, but can only create our own Star Domain force within the Void Great Realm, misunderstood as Invincible Spirit Rank experts."
"To serve the Taixu Great Saint, one must either shine brightly on the Realm Spirit List or cultivate the Primordial Law Ancient Scripture."
"For instance, those in the top hundred of the Realm Spirit List are all martial artists who cultivated the Primordial Law Ancient Scripture," the Blue Demon continued.
"So, the Blue Demon did not cultivate the Primordial Law Ancient Scripture!"
Inside, Xiao Ye was overwhelmed by a tumult of waves.
The Blue Demon’s words seemed to open a door, showing him a new world.
But why did the Blue Demon tell him all this?
"Ten thousand years ago, when I established the Blue Demon Star Domain, the current Human Clan Quasi-New Saint Jiang Kong came to my Blue Demon Star Domain, showcasing extraordinary combat power, startling the Void Great Realm."
"The Taixu Great Saint dispatched an envoy to bring Jiang Kong into the ’Holy Realm’ created by the Taixu Great Saint, as a genius cultivating the Primordial Law Ancient Scripture remaining in a Star Domain force was a waste."
"Indeed, Jiang Kong is now a Human Clan Quasi-New Saint." The Blue Demon gave Xiao Ye a deep glance.
"Lord Blue Demon, do you mean... my circumstances have also caught the attention of the Taixu Great Saint?" A sudden light flashed in Xiao Ye’s mind, prompting him to ask without hesitation.
"It seems you are not too dense."
"In fact, when you participated in the Initial Spirit Test at Star Luo Ancient City, achieving the second best historical result, second only to Jiang Kong, you had already attracted attention in the Void Great Realm."
"Back then, however, you were cultivating the Taichu Ancient Scripture, so no one had expectations."
"But now, having progressed to such a realm in such a short time, even killing eight Law Enforcement Envoys, you’ve garnered enough attention from the Taixu Great Saint."
"I’ve received news that two years from now, a Great Realm Envoy will descend upon the Spirit Capital," the Blue Demon spoke.
"The Holy Realm of the Taixu Great Saint!"
Xiao Ye took a deep breath, immensely excited.
Undoubtedly, a Holy Realm created by a Saint Rank expert offers immense benefits to Spirit Rank martial artists like them.
His fervent building of war merits was to become a Law Enforcement Envoy, to connect with the Void Great Realm. Now, with a Great Realm Envoy descending to bring him, this is absolutely a Step into the Sky!
"So these years, my performance has always been under the watch of powerful figures from the Void Great Realm?" Xiao Ye swiftly calmed down.
"Don’t celebrate too early."
"The past glory of the Taichu Ancient Scripture, you must have heard about it, even the Forbidden Ancient Clan vanished, this matter involves significant complexities."
"Even the Taixu Great Saint is unwilling to become entangled in such cause and effect, making your existence quite sensitive."
"To walk the path of Jiang Kong, you can only defeat the Great Realm Envoy descending in two years, showcasing your value; if you fail, you’ll be killed by the Great Realm Envoy, completely eradicating all future threats."
With a deep voice, the Blue Demon’s words were like cold water splashing, causing Xiao Ye’s body to tremble, a chilling sensation piercing his mind.
Either defeat the Great Realm Envoy?
Or be killed?
This choice was too domineering, without any room for negotiation.
"Hehe, Taixu, this fellow, despite my guidance back then, I didn’t expect him to treat cultivators of the Taichu Ancient Scripture like this now!"
From within the Time Rain Stone, a surge of angry emotion emanated, startling Xiao Ye.
Could it be that the Taixu Great Saint once received guidance from the Time Great Saint?
"Lord Blue Demon, do the other two Time Rain Stones exist within the Taixu Holy Realm?" Xiao Ye took a deep breath, suppressing all emotions, and suddenly asked.
"That Time Rain Stone was indeed obtained along my journey to the Taixu Holy Realm, during my visit to the Taixu Great Saint."
"The other two should also be there."
Seemingly surprised by Xiao Ye’s question, the Blue Demon paused before responding.
"Very well!"
"Two years from now, I am certain I can defeat that Great Realm Envoy!" Xiao Ye’s eyes burst with fiery brilliance, his war intent soaring to the heavens.
This domineering choice, since there’s no way to avoid it, then Xiao Ye will rise to the challenge, to create a new glory!
