Su Yu was moved, bowing deeply to the Third Prince.
The Third Prince helped Su Yu up, his eyes still filled with emotion. "You, Su Yu, were willing to sacrifice your life for a benefactor. Why can't I, a dying man, grant you your wish? If you want to thank someone, thank this person. He was the one who truly sacrificed his life. "
Su Yu bowed deeply to the person, extremely sincere.
Without him, the Duke of Xianyu would not have lived to this day.
"Father!" Su Yu reunited with the Duke of Xianyu. Staring at his empty right arm, Su Yu's heart ached. This arm had been sacrificed for him and Xianer.
The Duke of Xianyu's eyes were filled with tears. He caressed Su Yu's head, choking with emotion. "I have let you down …"
Su Yu shook his head. His gaze turned cold as he saw Bai Qixiong and Bodyguard Chen dodge.
"Father, let me deal with these two first!" How could Su Yu forget that the Duke of Xianyu was in trouble and that Bai Qixiong was involved? How could he forget that Bodyguard Chen and Bai Qixiong had chased him for thousands of miles?
Bai Qixiong opened his mouth, but Su Yu mercilessly cut him off. "Now that things have come to this, do you think I will forgive you?"
Even though the two of them had been sent by the Duke of Xianyu, they had given their all to chase after Su Yu.
Bodyguard Chen had a sorrowful expression. He did not want to die, so he bit his teeth and let out a low grunt. He broke all the energy channels in his body, crippling his cultivation level.
"Su Yu!" Bodyguard Chen knelt on the ground. "I have a wife and children, please spare my life. I will cripple my own cultivation level and will never harm the world again. Also, I will confess everything. I was sent by the Duke of Qin to kill you. Also, Miss Jiang is under house arrest in the Duke of Qin's manor."
Actually, Su Yu did not know Bodyguard Chen's identity. He only thought that he was an accomplice of the First Prince.
He did not expect the Duke of Qin to be involved in the assassination of the Holy Seal bearer!
"Hehe … the Duke of Qin is really a malignant tumor!" Su Yu passed by Bodyguard Chen but did not kill him. He coldly stared at Bai Qixiong. "What about you?"
Bai Qixiong's eyes were filled with dissatisfaction. He had painstakingly cultivated to Level Six Peak, how could he be willing to cripple his own cultivation level?
"Su Yu! I will give you a Saint Level technique in exchange for it. Let me go … "He was naturally afraid of Qiu Changjian. A mere Su Yu was nothing in his eyes.
"Forget it, I'll help you cripple your cultivation!" Su Yu interrupted him, stepping forward coldly. He did not believe that Bai Qixiong possessed a Saint Level cultivation technique. Su Yu thought that Bai Qixiong was merely stalling for time.
Bai Qixiong laughed angrily. In the past, Su Yu had been chased by him for a thousand miles. Now, with Qiu Changjian, he was so confident? He dared to threaten to cripple his cultivation?
A bright light flashed across Bai Qixiong's eyes as he said, "What if you can't defeat me?"
Su Yu replied calmly, "I will spare your life."
Bai Qixiong was overjoyed, he laughed and said, "Haha! Good! If you can defeat me, I'll give you a Saint Tier cultivation technique with both hands! "
"You have no chance of defeating me," Su Yu said calmly. He then took a step forward and attacked decisively!
"Purple Star Thunderbolt!"
Boom! Pa!
Purple Thunder Fire burned like raging flames.
It made Su Yu's face look cold and merciless.
Bai Qixiong patted the soft sword on his waist. The cold light emitted from the sword was like a dragon.
"Breeze Sword Song!"
Crack —
A fist and a sword collided with a loud bang!
Thud, thud, thud —
Bai Qixiong's palm felt numb, his eyes filled with shock.
Looking down at the soft sword in his hand, his pupils shrank, "What kind of flame is this?"
When the soft sword came into contact with Su Yu's fists, it actually showed signs of melting.
Su Yu secretly nodded. The Purple Star Thunderbolt was more than enough to seriously injure a Level Six Upper Tier. However, it was not enough to deal with a Level Six Peak. It was possible to fight to a draw, but to win, it would be lacking experience.
Taking a deep breath, Su Yu integrated the mysterious rhythm.
In the eyes of outsiders, Su Yu was like a person from a painting, detached from the mortal world, his temperament completely different.
His purple robe fluttered, his black hair danced, his handsome face added a bit of the temperament of a celestial being from a painting.
At this moment, Su Yu did not imitate the elder in the painting, the Heavenly Finger. Instead, with his eyes in a daze, he gently pushed his palm forward.
Rumble —
Ah —
A strange scene appeared. Bai Qixiong's surroundings also appeared like a painting. It was as if Su Yu had forcefully dragged Bai Qixiong into the painting.
After that, Su Yu calmly struck Bai Qixiong, sending him flying dozens of meters away!
Puff —
Bai Qixiong opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. His internal organs felt excruciating pain!
His chest caved in with a palm print, and several of his ribs were broken. It was a ghastly sight!
"You!!!" Bai Qixiong was horrified. It was the same Holy Decree, but why was its power several times greater than before?
Su Yu awoke from his daze, his mind even more enlightened.
After the soul fusion, Su Yu had faintly felt that his obsession with imitating the Holy Decree of the elder in the painting was a mistake.
Imitation was ultimately a small path.
No matter how successful an imitation was, it was still similar and could not break free from its shackles.
Thus, Su Yu boldly tried to incorporate his own moves while immersed in the Holy Decree, no longer just imitating the elder's Heavenly Finger.
The effect was amazing, and its power increased several times, exceeding Su Yu's imagination!
Su Yu calmed himself and coldly looked at the defeated Bai Qixiong.
In his eyes, Bai Qixiong had once been an unreachable, terrifying strong martial artist.
But now, he had been defeated by Su Yu.
Su Yu did not feel much of a sense of accomplishment. After witnessing Qiu Changjian's terrifying Level Nine abilities, his vision was no longer limited to Level Six Peak!
Su Yu's only regret was that he was not fated to enter the Sanctuary. If he did not have the opportunity, it would be difficult for him to reach a more mysterious level, and it would be difficult for him to cross swords with the top geniuses.
In the secret chamber, Qiu Changjian sat boldly with eight people lined up in front of him.
"Among all of you, according to the ranking of the competition, who is the strongest?" Qiu Changjian asked bluntly.
The eight of them looked at each other. Because of Su Yu's unforeseen event, the competition had not ended, and the rankings had not been revealed.
As if realizing this, Qiu Changjian sighed. "Alright then, each of you use your strongest moves."
"Sir, according to the rules, all eight of us have the right to enter the Sanctuary. What difference does it make to who is stronger and who is weaker?"
"Good question." Qiu Changjian looked at Xia Jingyu, his heart full of praise.
The Fiery Minister's despotic power had intimidated tens of thousands of people, but only this woman had the courage to speak the truth. Although she looked weak on the outside, her heart was strong and tenacious.
Her question had hit the nail on the head. Qiu Changjian replied, "It is true that all of you have the right to enter the Sanctuary, but you may not be qualified to become a Holy Disciple."
Holy Disciple? Just like Qiu Changjian?
"The Sacred Region is split into two parts, the Heavenly Sacred Region and the Mortal Sacred Region. The Mortal Sacred Region takes in all of the geniuses in the world, and is managed by the Nine Great Cabinet Elders, who guide them in raising their cultivation bases. Over the years, there have been thousands of people in the Mortal Sacred Region, and that is what most people know as the Sacred Region.
"As for the Heavenly Sanctuary, they only accept peerless geniuses, who are the nominal disciples of the Holy King. They receive the title of Holy Disciple and enjoy the best resources. Their status is above that of the ordinary disciples of the Heavenly Sanctuary. If the ordinary disciples of the Heavenly Sanctuary do evil, they can kill them with a thought. Do you understand?"
The scene of Qiu Changjian killing the Fiery Minister was engraved in their minds.
The life and death of someone as lofty as the Fiery Minister was in the hands of a disciple from the Heavenly Sanctuary.
The Heavenly Sanctuary was the true Sanctuary. Only by entering the Heavenly Sanctuary could one truly be considered to be above others!
Zheng Yilin's eyes were burning with passion. "Sir, may I ask how many people can enter the Heavenly Sanctuary every year?"
"How many?" Qiu Changjian's lips curled into a mocking smile. "You should ask yourself how many batches it takes for someone to enter the Heavenly Sanctuary."
What? How many years does it take for one person to appear? The requirements to enter the Heavenly Sanctuary were extremely high.
"Alright, let's begin. Use your strongest techniques," Qiu Changjian said.
First, the four demon students from the martial arts training institute displayed their strengths.
Qiu Changjian did not move an inch. His eyes were calm and he did not say a word.
It was only when Dong Lin made his move that Qiu Changjian leisurely commented, "Average. In the Mortal Sanctuary, you are considered below average."
Dong Lin almost vomited blood. In the empire, he was one of the top four, a proud son of heaven. But in the Mortal Sanctuary, he was considered below average!
Without a doubt, Dong Lin was not fated to enter the Heavenly Sanctuary. In fact, he was only considered average in the Mortal Sanctuary.
After that, Chong Nanfei made his move. Qiu Changjian's eyes were still calm. "Average. In the Mortal Sanctuary."
Chong Nanfei was bitter. In the Mortal Sanctuary, he was considered average. Naturally, he was not fated to enter the Heavenly Sanctuary.
Xia Jingyu clenched her teeth. Among them, her cultivation level was the lowest. She was afraid that Qiu Changjian would not take her seriously.
Thinking for a moment, Xia Jingyu suddenly thought of the Holy Decree Su Yu had imparted to her. She might as well try it out.
Taking a light breath, Xia Jingyu's mind sank into the pear blossoms under the moonlight. It was as if she was lying in Su Yu's embrace, serene and peaceful. She displayed the Heavenly Finger to her heart's content.
Creak —
The finger streaked across the sky with a unique rhythm. It made Xia Jingyu look like a fairy from a painting.
Qiu Changjian's eyes brightened. For the first time, a smile formed on his face. "Not bad. The Holy Decree is pure and untainted. It contains the majestic power of the heavens and earth. It is magnificent and wonderful! This trip was not in vain. I have found someone qualified to enter the Heavenly Sanctuary. "
"What is your name?" Qiu Changjian smiled, his tone cordial.
"Xia Jingyu." She was confused. She could enter the Heavenly Sanctuary just like that?
"Alright, Junior Xia. Prepare for a day. After you've dealt with the mundane world, you will follow me back to the Heavenly Sanctuary tomorrow. We will have another companion." Qiu Changjian was beaming with joy.
What? The eight of them were shocked. Xia Jingyu had entered the Heavenly Sanctuary?
All because of Xia Jingyu's Holy Decree?
Zheng Yilin was the only one left. He cupped his fists and laughed. "Congratulations, Jingyu. It looks like you and I will still be in the Heavenly Sanctuary. I hope we can help each other in the future."
Zheng Yilin was elated. It turned out that the Holy Decree was the difference between the heavens and the mortals. He, Zheng Yilin, had also comprehended the Holy Decree and was qualified to enter the Heavenly Sanctuary.
He would be spending a lot of time with Xia Jingyu in the future.
The Heavenly Sanctuary was far away and mysterious. Xia Jingyu was a woman, so she would naturally feel uneasy. He and Xia Jingyu came from the same region. Naturally, she would approach him and seek help from him.
After spending so much time together, Xia Jingyu would eventually fall in love with him and be willing to marry him.
Zheng Yilin was elated. He had never been so excited before.
Su Yu, Su Yu, so what if you beat me? Xia Jingyu is still my woman. You can stay in the mortal world and look up to her!
Xia Jingyu creased her brows and sighed helplessly.
Qiu Changjian was surprised. He could not help but look forward to it. "What? Have you comprehended the Holy Decree? Quick, show me. "
Zheng Yilin's heart was filled with pride. His expression was humble as he solemnly displayed the Holy Decree.
A ball of light distorted his body. He threw out ten punches. Each punch was distorted by the light, making it difficult to distinguish which was real and which was fake.
Zheng Yilin raised his head to look at Qiu Changjian. His expression suddenly froze.
Qiu Changjian's look of anticipation had long disappeared. His eyes were filled with disappointment. "Average, lower than average in the Mortal Sanctuary."
This evaluation was like being struck by lightning. Zheng Yilin could not recover. He stuttered, "But … but I have also comprehended the Holy Decree. Xia Jingyu can enter the Heavenly Sanctuary. Why am I only qualified to enter the Mortal Sanctuary?"
Hearing this, Qiu Changjian's eyes turned cold. "The Holy Decree is divided into three grades: upper, middle, and lower. Junior Xia's Holy Decree is a rare middle grade Holy Decree. With further training, she has a high chance of becoming a Holy King. You cannot be compared to her."
There were grades in the Holy Decree?
Zheng Yilin was dumbfounded. His heart fell from heaven to hell. He bitterly muttered, "So, the Holy Decree I have comprehended is only a lower grade."
Unexpectedly, Qiu Changjian mercilessly rebuked him. "Lower grade? You overestimate your Holy Decree. Your Holy Decree is not even at the level of a lower grade. Anyone who cultivates in the Mortal Sanctuary for a year or two will be able to comprehend it to your current level. "
What? Not even at the level of a lower grade? Zheng Yilin felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him.
Qiu Changjian waved his hand. "Alright, all of you can leave. Junior Xia will follow me to the Heavenly Sanctuary in one day. The rest of you, wait for my orders. Within ten days, someone from the Mortal Sanctuary will bring you away."
With that, Qiu Changjian stood up.
"Senior Qiu, I would like to recommend someone to you. He will definitely satisfy you." Xia Jingyu smiled. Her smile was elegant and refined, like a spring flower in April.
