In the royal palace of Ye, on the Star-Gathering Platform, the rumbling sounds from Qin Wentian's body persisted for a total of three days. The astral light from his Astral Souls grew increasingly dazzling, and his four Astral Novas were all released, emitting a humming sound.
Today, a crisp sound rang out, as though something had just broken out of a shell. The four Yuanfu in Qin Wentian's body grew even larger, as astral light gleamed within. Within his sword-type Yuanfu, sword qi howled and howled, as though it wanted to pierce through the clouds. A beam of light pierced through, it was none other than a king's sword. Qin Wentian's Astral Novas had returned to his Yuanfu, guarding it as he continued to refine his Astral Novas.
At the same time, the other three Yuanfu also did the same. The astral light from Qin Wentian's Astral Novas was completely absorbed into his body. When he opened his eyes, a resplendent light erupted forth, so dazzling that it felt as though it could pierce through the eyes of those who looked at it. However, an instant later, the sharpness of the Astral Novas was completely retracted. Qin Wentian had a smile on his face, giving off the feeling of a spring breeze, exuding an aura of tranquility and elegance.
Such a change in aura happened with a single thought from him. Sometimes, it was as sharp as a sword being unsheathed, and sometimes, it was as calm as the surface of a lake.
His cultivation base had clearly increased by a level, and he had already stepped into the fifth level of Heavenly Dipper. Now that he activated the power of his bloodline, his aura was already comparable to the sixth level of Heavenly Dipper, and he even had the strength to threaten Ye Kongfan. However, he also knew that Ye Kongfan wasn't an ordinary character. Ye Kongfan had the title of Heaven's Chosen from the Violet Thunder Sect, and he had the Tribulation Lightning Bloodline as well as the Heavenly Lightning Physique. His reputation wasn't undeserved, and even Qin Wentian didn't dare to be careless.
Qin Wentian closed his eyes and continued to consolidate his foundation.
In the Royal Tomb of Grand Xia, Di Tian practiced his halberd every single day. Although this seemed extremely dull, Di Tian didn't feel impatient at all. Cultivation wasn't something that could be accomplished in a single day, it was already extremely dry and dull. This was especially so when it came to comprehending insights. Not only that, his innate desire to pursue the Martial Dao was extremely strong. Every improvement he made would cause him to feel excited and his blood to boil.
From his understanding, there were two types of comprehension. The first was instant enlightenment, a flash of inspiration appearing, instantly comprehending and transforming. Such a situation could only be encountered by chance and not sought, and was extremely rare. The second type was to depend on one's own hard work and perseverance. Eventually, constant dripping of water would penetrate the stone, resulting in a transformation, and from there, gaining enlightenment. No matter how high one's talent was, stellar martial cultivators still couldn't do without perseverance and perseverance.
Moreover, Qin Wentian believed that even if it was an epiphany, you might encounter an epiphany only if you had enough accumulation.
In the blink of an eye, there were only three days left to the one-month deadline. Di Tian still hadn't stepped into the next realm, but his halberd arts seemed to have improved once again. At this moment, he put down the ancient halberd in his hands and closed his eyes, directly falling asleep on the ground.
However, even in his dreams, Di Tian was still practicing his halberd arts. From this, one could see how strong his obsession was.
This sleep lasted for an entire day. When Di Tian opened his eyes, a hint of a smile could be seen in them.
He involuntarily thought back to the heroic figure he met in the Dark Forest back then. Who said that dreams were illusory? Back then, wasn't that ancient mountain peak the link between dreams and reality?
Standing up, Di Tian once again practiced his halberd arts. His lips curled up in a smile, and if there was someone here who saw his current halberd arts, they would definitely be stunned.
Finally, Di Tian abandoned his halberd and began to practice his sword arts. Most probably, he understood that it would be extremely difficult for him to make any more breakthroughs in his halberd arts within a short period of time.
...
Right now in the royal palace of Ye, the atmosphere was extremely tense. The various feudal lords and dukes gathered in the Royal Capital, and the various nobility clans frequently held secret meetings. In fact, there were even some major powers from the Royal Sacred Region who came to Ye.
Ever since the Human Emperor ordered Ye Lingshuang to barge into the Qi King Manor, as well as the news of Qin Wentian challenging Ye Kongfan and the disciples of the Violet Thunder Sect, everyone knew that a month later, not only would the battle between Qin Wentian and Ye Kongfan occur, it would also be the final battle of the royal clan of Ye. The Qi King's patience was truly strong. If the Human Emperor didn't make a move, he would rather wait. If it wasn't for his patience, he wouldn't have been able to heavily injure the Human Emperor back then. Such an opportunity was extremely rare.
Ye was an ancient country with a history of over ten thousand years. Its foundation was extremely deep, and its strength was only inferior to the nine great sects. If the Ye Country was going to undergo an upheaval, all the major powers in the Royal Sacred Region would pay attention to it. No wonder the current Ye Country was in a state of turmoil. It was unknown how many experts were rushing over, wanting to witness this historic moment.
Within a manor in the Royal Capital, a group of young experts could be seen, all of them exuding an extraordinary aura. Their faces were clearly etched with pride and self-confidence. Among them, there was a female whose radiance was exceptionally dazzling. She was clad in a fiery phoenix robe and was incomparably beautiful. However, the heroic aura she exuded made people not dare to look directly at her.
This female was none other than Li Hanyou, the personal disciple of the Plum Mountain Sword Sovereigness of the Battle Sword Sect. The young men around her were all from the same sect as her.
"Second Grandpa, why did our clan also send people to Ye?" Li Hanyou stared at a cold-looking middle-aged man as she asked in bewilderment.
"How can we miss the upheaval of the royal clan of Ye? Didn't your Battle Sword Sect send people here as well? Even the Plum Mountain Sword Sovereigness has sent someone over. I'm sure this matter is extremely important to you." The middle-aged man smiled. Although he was already a hundred years old, he looked extremely spirited, like he was in his forties.
"Master has indeed sent a few elders over. It's just that there's something I don't understand. Can Second Grandpa please enlighten me?" Li Hanyou continued.
"Do you really think that the Qi King of Ye would dare to betray the royal clan alone? Which ancient country didn't have countless corpses piled up when they were vying for the position of the Human Emperor? Only by trampling on the corpses of the geniuses of their own clan would they be able to dominate the other kings and unify the ancient country. The Human Emperor of Ye, Ye Qingyun, was extremely glorious back then. At the start, he wasn't looked upon favorably by others, but after a single day, he rose up, radiating boundless radiance. At the Burial Gorge a thousand miles away from the royal capital of Ye, Ye Qingyun killed a path of blood, sending over ten geniuses of the royal clan of Ye to their deaths. After that, Ye Qingyun carried Ye Tianxiang's head into the royal palace. From then on, in order to prevent the royal clan from killing each other, the previous Human Emperor conferred him as the successor. After that, regardless of whether it was the outstanding Qi King or the arrogant Su King, none of them could shake his position as the crown prince until he ascended to the throne."
The middle-aged man slowly spoke, his tone filled with respect. How could the Human Emperor of a generation be simple? Li Hanyou clenched her fists tightly after she heard the story. Her beautiful eyes shone with a brilliant light as she recalled her identity. Right now, although she was extremely dazzling, there were still a few other similarly dazzling existences in the Li Clan.
"The Qi King has been suppressed by the Human Emperor Ye Qingyun for many years. The disparity in strength between the two of them naturally isn't small. If it's only the various kings and kings of Ye, the Qi King would definitely not dare to have any thoughts of rebellion. Ye Qingyun's iron-blooded methods are something they have all experienced before. Who would dare to be so brazen when he brought the head of his own brother into the royal palace? I'm sure the Qi King would never be able to forget that scene."
The middle-aged man coldly laughed as he continued, "However, the Human Emperor Ye Qingyun himself was incomparably arrogant, yet his descendants didn't manage to inherit his glory. Maybe the rumors are true, back then Ye Qingyun had a miraculous encounter that allowed him to rise up in the royal clan. Hence, his talent was ordinary, hence his descendants were also ordinary. However, the son of the Qi King, Ye Kongfan, had outstanding talent and was highly regarded by the Violet Thunder Sect, giving the Qi King an opportunity."
"Second Grandpa, are you saying that the Violet Thunder Sect is the mastermind behind this change in the royal clan?" Li Hanyou felt a chill in her heart. Juniors like them only cared about cultivation and rarely came into contact with such secret matters.
"Naturally. If not, how could the Human Emperor have fallen to such a state? Also, isn't your Battle Sword Sect also involved in this matter? Do you really think that the Battle Sword Sect sent people to escort Ye Lingshuang back to Ye is just to protect her? If I'm not wrong, the change in the royal clan this time around would definitely implicate many major powers."
The eyes of the middle-aged man flashed with a meaningful smile. Upon seeing that Li Hanyou still wanted to ask, he interrupted, "Hanyou, you don't have to care too much about this. You only need to know that as long as you are strong, all schemes and schemes are useless. The reason why the Human Emperor was able to rule Ye for so many years wasn't because he was proficient in governing the country, but because of his unparalleled combat prowess."
"Hanyou understands." Li Hanyou bowed and nodded.
"Since you're in the Battle Sword Sect, are you acquainted with Qin Wentian? It's rumored that this man challenged Ye Kongfan with a cultivation base at the fourth level of Heavenly Dipper. How audacious." The middle-aged man suddenly asked.
Li Hanyou frowned as she recalled the silhouette who rejected the Plum Mountain Sword Sovereigness. After which, she replied, "I don't have much interaction with him, I've only met him once. He's an extremely arrogant fellow, and I'm afraid the odds are against him. He will die in Ye Kongfan's hands."
"Mhm." The middle-aged man surnamed Li casually nodded, he didn't continue speaking. His gaze turned in the direction of the royal palace of Ye, as though his eyes could penetrate through space.
Not only did the Li Clan send their experts, there were also other major powers in the royal palace of Ye, including the royal clans of ancient countries. As for why they were here, everyone was very clear in their hearts. It was just that ordinary people and those of the younger generations didn't know much about it.
Qin Wentian naturally wouldn't know about these secrets. After exiting his seclusion, he and Mo Qingcheng went to pay a visit to the Human Emperor.
The Human Emperor was the same as before, still lying on the bed. However, Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng both knew that the injuries of the Human Emperor should have already healed. As to why he was still lying there, it was undoubtedly because he wanted to lure the snake out of its hole. Just like that day when he ordered Ye Lingshuang to barge into the Qi King Manor, he was certain that the Qi King wouldn't fight to the death.
Finally, the deadline of a month arrived.
The morning sun rose high up in the sky, its rays shining upon the ancient royal palace, causing the entire place to be filled with vitality.
Outside the sleeping quarters of the Human Emperor, on the flight of stairs, everyone inclined their heads, staring at the rising sun. They knew that a storm was about to arrive.
"The War Country, the Grand Martial King and the Crown Prince of the War Country are here to pay a visit to the Human Emperor of Ye." At this moment, a voice thundered through the skies above the royal palace of Ye. Countless people inclined their heads as their hearts pounded violently.
The War Country was the same as Ye, an ancient country with a history of ten thousand years. Their strength was tyrannical, and the Grand Martial King was the strongest nobility in the War Country.
"Princess Tianluan of the Spirit Luan Country is here to pay a visit to the Human Emperor of Ye."
"The Li Clan is here to pay a visit to the Human Emperor of Ye."
"The Barbarian Clan is here to pay a visit to the Human Emperor of Ye."
Numerous voices rang out unceasingly in the skies above the royal palace of Ye. Every single voice that rang out caused the hearts of the people to palpitate violently!
