Chapter 96 - 95: All Have Arrived

Chapter 96: Chapter 95: All Have Arrived"As soon as the crisis at the Emperor Immortal Sect was resolved, you, the Sect Master, rushed back, truly a grand entrance," the Emperor said indifferently as he looked at Zhou Zihuang, speaking slowly and deliberately. Zhou Zihuang cornered a faint smile, a Divine Sword floating behind him, and replied unhurriedly, "That is hardly comparable to you, the Emperor, who condemns and accuses our Emperor Immortal Sect." The Emperor’s face remained obscured, but Zhou Zihuang’s words clearly caused the Emperor’s aura to gradually ascend. "I actually want to see what you have been up to in the last half year since you left the Emperor Immortal Sect." During this conversation, the Emperor’s aura had already climbed to its peak, his imperial presence dominating and astonishing, compelling involuntarily submission and worship. Boom———— Nine golden pillars of light burst forth from behind the Emperor, soaring into the sky like nine flying golden dragons, performing a dance in the air, creating an extraordinary spectacle. This scene caused everyone within the Imperial City to widen their eyes, shouting praises of the Emperor’s lofty imperial might! "Oh? A Saintly Technique born from the Emperor Dao." Ye Xuan remarked with slight surprise upon witnessing the Emperor unleash his power. "Emperor Dao?" Youwei, standing nearby, was mildly shaken upon hearing this technique’s name. Emperor Dao was the Cultivation Technique originally practiced by Lie Tian Great Emperor, the founding ancestor of the Emperor Immortal Sect, renowned for ages. Unfortunately, the Emperor Dao had disappeared into the annals of history along with the decline of the Emperor Immortal Sect. It was indeed surprising that the Emperor of the Lie Tian Heavenly Country practiced a technique derived from the Emperor Dao. Could it be that the Emperor possessed such terrifying imperiousness? The Emperor Dao specialized in dominance, cultivating an immensely powerful aura, overwhelming enemies purely with its presence. There were rumors that at the peak of Lie Tian Great Emperor’s power, merely releasing traces of the Emperor’s Might during combat could make his opponents concede defeat. Although the technique practiced by the Emperor was only a branch of the Emperor Dao, it also possessed that kind of overpowering nature, its sheer release of pressure being almost unbearable. "The Emperor Dao of the Emperor Immortal Sect has been lost for many years, and unexpectedly, it seems that within this Lie Tian Heavenly Country, there remains a derivative technique of the Emperor Dao. It makes one wonder if the origin script of the Emperor Dao still exists." Ye Xuan stroked his chin, pondering aloud. Youwei tilted her head, suspicion rising in her beautiful eyes, and asked, "Husband, are you considering targeting the Lie Tian Heavenly Country?" For some reason, Youwei always felt that ever since her husband had regained his consciousness, he sometimes acted with exceptional boldness, daring to do what others would not even consider. This style of doing things had its pros and cons; should they provoke an invincible entity, the consequences could be unimaginable. However, challenges like the Heaven Suppressing Ancient Sect’s oppression of the Emperor Immortal Sect had been resolved by Ye Xuan, proving that often his seemingly reckless actions were well-calculated in advance. There’s a phrase, "well-prepared," that describes this perfectly. Ye Xuan chuckled slightly and said, "To be honest, I don’t really have much interest in the Emperor Dao, but I do think it suits my father-in-law for cultivation. After all, this technique originally belongs to the Emperor Immortal Sect, and if the Lie Tian Heavenly Country indeed possesses it, it would only be right to take it back." Indeed, he had little interest in the Emperor Dao. In fact, he knew the original script of the Emperor Dao, but he would not be foolish enough to directly reveal it. If he did, it would only bring trouble to the Emperor Immortal Sect. His current strength was still far from sufficient to protect the Emperor Immortal Sect. Before that time comes, certain things must not be revealed, otherwise, it could attract the attention of some entities. Youwei refocused her eyes on the Emperor, whispering softly, "The Lie Tian Heavenly Country probably doesn’t possess the Emperor Dao either, or else the Lie Tian Academy would not have become the most powerful Cultivation Sacred Land in Lie Tian Heavenly Country, but rather it would have been the Royal Sacred Academy." Within the Lie Tian Heavenly Country, aside from the Lie Tian Academy, there were many other Cultivation Sacred Lands. The Royal Sacred Academy was one of them, once capable of overshadowing the Lie Tian Academy and even rivaling the Emperor Immortal Sect. Back then, cultivators took great pride in being admitted to the Royal Sacred Academy. Unfortunately, with the decline of the Lie Tian Heavenly Country, the Royal Sacred Academy gradually lost its luster, making the Lie Tian Academy the premier Cultivation Sacred Land of the Lie Tian Heavenly Country, capable of matching the Emperor Immortal Sect itself. The Emperor Immortal Sect and the Lie Tian Academy hold an exchange meeting annually, primarily allowing the younger generation from both sides to spar and compete subtly, to see who is truly the strongest Cultivation Sacred Land. Based on past records, the only notable young cultivators from the Emperor Immortal Sect were the Chief Disciple Leng Yifan and Holy Daughter Youwei. Beyond these two, the students of the Lie Tian Academy clearly held an edge. However, with the recent secession of the Lie Tian Heavenly Country from the Emperor Immortal Sect, the Lie Tian Academy rightfully became the foremost Sacred Land of the Lie Tian Heavenly Country. "Does this mean that within the current Lie Tian Heavenly Country, the Imperial Family possesses less Daoist Magic and Divine Skills compared to the Lie Tian Academy?" Ye Xuan stroked his chin, somewhat surprised. "That’s one way to put it," Zhou Youwei nodded calmly. "Then let’s just leave it at that." Ye Xuan felt somewhat disinterested. The Lie Tian Academy was hardly worth his effort. Zhou Youwei couldn’t help but feel frustrated. Was her husband actually considering taking down the Lie Tian Academy? At that moment, the Emperor unleashed his power, and his aura shook the heavens. Opposite him, Zhou Zihuang appeared calm and somewhat indolent. A Divine Sword was constantly suspended behind him; facing the Emperor’s terrifying pressure, he showed no trace of panic, even wearing a slight smile. "It seems you want to make a move?" Zhou Zihuang said lightly. "The Emperor Immortal Sect has allowed its disciples to wreak havoc in the Imperial City. I’ve said it—they deserve to die!" The Emperor slowly spoke, each word thundering tremendously, terrifying in its intensity. "And I have also said, you’re not qualified to judge the disciples of my Emperor Immortal Sect," Zhou Zihuang responded just as coolly. His tone was mild, yet it was in no way inferior to the Emperor’s! The dialogues between these two top overlords could significantly influence the situation.

Boom———— The two were like the tip of a needle against wheat; neither would yield to the other. Their fearsome auras collided in the sky, unleashing horrifying power that seemed to even split the sky dome. Above the sky dome, the enormous dark hand that blotted out the sun had disappeared at some point, unnoticed by anyone. Boom crack———— Their auras clashed wildly. Although neither made a move, they had already crossed blows countless times in secret. At this moment, the experts within the Imperial City all showed signs of vigilance, including the Thunder King, who, along with many other experts of the Imperial City, took to the sky, looking uneasily in a certain direction. There, a series of rapidly approaching auras was incoming. While not as astonishing as Zhou Zihuang’s, they too demonstrated immense power that one could not ignore. "Mu Baicheng." Within the Lie Tian Academy, a voice sounded, followed by a red-robed white-haired elderly man rising to the heavens, looking in that direction. "Principal Hong." Seeing this red-robed white-haired elderly man, the Thunder King and other powerhouses bowed in respect. This white-haired elder in red robes was none other than the current Principal of Lie Tian Academy—Hong Yunlie. This man was also appointed as the State Preceptor by the Emperor himself, holding a status in the whole Lie Tian Heavenly Country that was second to none. Hong Yunlie’s appearance was unexpected, and the name Mu Baicheng he mentioned also caused a stir among them. Mu Baicheng. The Supreme Elder of the Emperor Immortal Sect! This man’s strength was second only to the Sect Master, Emperor Zhou. Whoosh whoosh whoosh———— Sometime later, a white rainbow tore through the sky from afar, and a black-robed white-haired imposing elder stood in the air, clutching a black spear, like an old War God, his formidable aura radiating fiercely. The newcomer was Mu Baicheng! "Who is it that wants to kill the people of my Emperor Immortal Sect?" Mu Baicheng stood with one hand behind his back and the other holding the spear, his eyes fierce and domineering, unmatched in his aura! And following Mu Baicheng’s arrival, several more auras swiftly approached. Qiu Wenhan, Wu Jingshan, Jiang Jing, Lu Chengde. The four current Great Elders of the Emperor Immortal Sect. All were present.
