Chapter 1683 - 1666: I Will Proclaim Myself Emperor!
"Xingluo City is merely an ancient star in the Blue Demon Star Domain, yet it is already so vast. I truly wonder how immense the Three Thousand Great Realms are."
On the ancient star where Xingluo City is located, Xiao Ye flew through the air, looking down at the mountains and lands below, his face full of awe.
This ancient star beneath his feet is several times larger than the entire True Spirit Continent. Even for him, flying around it requires a considerable amount of time.
On the ancient star, mountain ranges stretch endlessly, lush and vibrant, teeming with life. Some rise like sword blades piercing the clouds, others lie sprawling like Ferocious Beasts, shrouded in mist and grandeur.
There are perilous places here, yet many are guarded by heavily armed government soldiers.
People thrive and multiply on this ancient star, living here for generations. Some powerful Martial Artists choose to enter secluded cultivation in this place...
The boundless mountains and rivers of this ancient star are all under the control of the Star Luo City Lord!
On this ancient star, the Star Luo City Lord is the absolute Emperor!
"The Spirit Rank is divided into three realms. Since that Young City Lord is already an Earth Spirit Realm expert, I fear the Star Luo City Lord is likely a Heavenly Spirit Realm expert."
"Cultivation in the Spirit Rank should have a significant connection with the omnipresent ’Qi,’ thought Xiao Ye to himself."
Upon arriving in the Blue Demon Star Domain, the sparse Qi in the Outer Domain Battlefield became incredibly dense, permeating everywhere.
"This mysterious Qi evidently also relates to Emperor Ascension. Here, I can completely declare myself Emperor!" Xiao Ye found a sparsely populated area, directly splitting a mountain peak and rushing in.
"This time, I, Xiao Ye, will ascend to Emperor!"
"Once I become Emperor, does that Young City Lord still dare to suppress me?" A wild light flickered in Xiao Ye’s eyes.
Back on the True Spirit Continent, he had already forged four Emperor Roads in the aspects of Tao and Law. During his two years on the journey, he made tremendous progress, and now he could already sense the Great Emperor Realm.
Swish!
In an instant, Xiao Ye’s eyes seemed to transform into the eyes of a Divine, with the Hundred Battle Secret Skill operating, making his whole body glow brightly.
Rumbling!
Rumbling!
...
The terrifying Tao and Law burst forth from Xiao Ye’s eyes, surging like an ocean in the void, and astonishingly, figures of overwhelming suppression materialized.
Sword Emperor!
Barbarian Emperor!
Heavenly Emperor!
Cang Clan Patriarch!
Chou Gushen!
Human Race Four Emperors!
...
These figures released torrential waves, surrounding Xiao Ye like stars converging around the moon, their Divine Light piercing through eternity.
Tao and Law erupted on them, achieving extreme sublimation, and rushed together towards Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye maintained a solemn expression, with four Emperor Roads emerging from the void, rolling and surging, shrouded by the Tao and Law of these powerful experts.
As Xiao Ye secluded himself in cultivation, Xingluo City and several surrounding ancient stars were thrown into upheaval!
Because, in Xingluo City, seven talents suddenly appeared who charged into the top ten thousand in the Initial Spirit Test.
Among them was even one who soared to the fifteenth place, absolutely a genius among geniuses!
In the Blue Demon Star Domain, to control an ancient star, besides having the strength to suppress heroes, the power under one’s command must also be substantial; only then can one forge an immortal legacy.
Thus, many ancient stars in the Blue Demon Star Domain spare no effort to recruit talents.
Getting so many talents at once is indeed a monumental joy for Xingluo City.
"The City Lord will hold the Xingluo Banquet in a month, inviting those seven talents. Tsk tsk, this kind of treatment hasn’t been seen in Xingluo City for hundreds of years."
"They say it’s to invite those seven talents, but it’s actually only to invite that Wuji Emperor. If you can charge into the top twenty in the Initial Spirit Test, you’ll surely receive the same treatment."
"Forget it, I don’t have that ability."
"I heard the City Lord also invited the City Lords of several neighboring ancient stars to participate in the Xingluo Banquet?"
"Heh heh, the City Lord suddenly gathered seven talents, naturally intimidating the City Lords of other ancient stars. Those City Lords seeing the Wuji Emperor will surely be frustrated."
"In a month, when heroes gather, it will surely be lively."
...
On the ancient star, many Martial Artists were discussing the Xingluo Banquet.
The significance of the Xingluo City Lord holding the Xingluo Banquet, inviting City Lords of several nearby ancient stars, was clear to everyone.
This news spread, unexpectedly attracting famous Spirit Rank experts from the Blue Demon Domain, all eager to catch a glimpse of that super genius—Wuji Emperor.
As for the news that Wuji Emperor was an Exotic Beast with a master, it was completely sealed off.
The Xingluo City Lord’s Mansion, towering atop the most majestic peak of this ancient star, resembled a giant overlooking the whole star, heavily guarded and the strategic core of the entire Xingluo City.
The Xingluo City Lord’s Mansion is vast, situated on a small floating continent.
"Evil, the master of that Wuji Emperor still refuses to dissolve the Soul Contract?" questioned a middle-aged man with green hair, sitting cross-legged.
This middle-aged man’s entire being exuded authority as if commanding the vast starry sky, his deep voice reverberating like a thunderclap.
"Foster father, I have already sent people out to communicate with the City Lords of the several nearby ancient stars. They absolutely dare not accept the master of the Wuji Emperor."
"Now this guy is still in our Xingluo City. As time goes by, he will surely obediently dissolve the Soul Contract."
"Could a mere Mortal Rank ant still think to overturn the heavens?"
Luo Xie, bearing double horns, spoke respectfully.
"Hmm."
"Well done."
"An Exotic Beast like Wuji Emperor is very special, even I cannot see through which species of Exotic Beasts he is. Besides keeping the news from leaking, you must not let him be ruined by that Mortal Rank ant."
"After all, forcibly erasing an Exotic Beast’s Soul Contract, even Lord Blue Demon can’t do it."
"If you can make Wuji Emperor recognize you as master, it is more significant than gathering ten talents."
The green-haired middle-aged man advised.
"Rest assured foster father, if not for the Wuji Emperor, I would have long since acted to slay that fellow."
Luo Xie grinned, performing a respectful salute before turning to leave.
"To command an ancient star in the Blue Demon Star Domain is truly arduous. Getting these talents this time means the heavens have not abandoned me."
"This time, letting those old fellows from nearby ancient stars come to the Xingluo Banquet is also to intimidate them, making them discard their scheming thoughts."
On this small continent, a smile graced the green-haired middle-aged man’s face.
The stream of people on this ancient star of Xingluo City grew increasingly torrential, the clamorous sounds piercing the heavens, with decorations everywhere, brimming with joy.
The Xingluo Banquet, along with Wuji Emperor, completely became the focus of all Martial Artists on this ancient star.
Yet no one noticed that in the sky to the south of this ancient star, darkness suddenly fell, with dust and sand swirling, lightning flashing, and thunder roaring, Heavenly Might booming.
This was an Emperor Tribulation even more terrifying than the birth of any Great Emperor on the True Spirit Continent!
