Qin Wentian's perception floated about in this boundlessly vast starry space. As he stared at the resplendent constellations, terrifying waves rose up in his heart.
Many of the constellations here were different from those in the lower 6th Heavenly Layer. Not only was the aura exuded by these constellations stronger, it was also because of the uniqueness of these constellations. With a single glance, these constellations gave Qin Wentian an intense visual impact.
"Is that a gigantic tortoise?" Qin Wentian stared at a constellation not far away from him. This was a demonic beast-type constellation. It had the shape of a gigantic tortoise, blotting out the skies and blotting out the sun. It was unknown how vast it was. This gigantic tortoise also had the body of a serpent, exuding an incomparably demonic aura. It was as though there was a pair of eyes staring at him.
"This isn't a gigantic tortoise, it's a Xuanwu Beast." Qin Wentian's heart trembled. If he could form an innate connection with this constellation, he would be able to summon a Xuanwu Beast, possessing a terrifying defense.
An intense piercing pain shot through his body, causing Qin Wentian's heart to clench. The 7th Heavenly Layer was a huge leap compared to the 6th Heavenly Layer. The astral souls condensed from the astral souls would no longer be golden in color, but the pressure here was also extremely strong. Although his perception could allow him to step into the 7th Heavenly Layer, he couldn't stay here for too long. He had to find the constellation he wanted to form an innate connection with as soon as possible.
His perception sped through the starry space. Qin Wentian saw an extremely powerful constellation. This constellation was like a gigantic mountain that spanned across the sky, resembling an ancient divine mountain. It was unknown how heavy it was, but just by sensing it from afar, Qin Wentian felt as though he was about to be crushed by the weight of the divine mountain.
Qin Wentian's heart pounded violently, he had an impulse to send his perception over.
However, he still managed to restrain himself. His perception moved through the astral river, staring at the incomparably bizarre constellations. He even saw a terrifying vortex that resembled a black hole. Within that vortex, there seemed to be a pair of eyes that could devour everything. There were no other constellations in the surroundings. It was as though in this domain, no other constellations were allowed to exist. If not, the vortex would devour them all into the vortex.
"Every single constellation contains a terrifying amount of power within." Qin Wentian's heart trembled, but he still continued his search. He hoped that the Astral Soul he condensed from the Astral Soul he condensed this time around would be compatible with the cultivation art he cultivated. Only then would he be able to unleash the full potential of his Astral Soul and cultivation art.
Qin Wentian mainly cultivated two great immortal arts, the Fiendgod Suppression Art and the Fiendgod Body Refinement Art.
There was no need to doubt the power of these two Immortal Arts. Their offensive power was extremely terrifying, and the Immortal Devil Body Refining Art could even create a real Immortal Devil body. Using one's physical body to fight against Immortal Devils, how terrifying was that?
Astral Souls could amplify a stellar martial cultivator's attacks, but ultimately, it was for the sake of a stellar martial cultivator's cultivation. Qin Wentian naturally understood what choice he should make.
The pressure on his perception grew stronger and stronger. Qin Wentian was still attempting to ascend upwards. Every time a constellation appeared in his vision, it would be so powerful that it caused Qin Wentian's heart to palpitate. However, he endured it all. His perception was on the verge of collapsing.
If he failed this time around, he could only wait for the next chance to ascend to the Nine Heavenly Layers. However, he still didn't give up. In a place extremely far away from him, a beam of dazzling Astral Light cascaded downwards. Faintly, a terrifying might permeated the air, causing Qin Wentian's perception to grow even more illusory.
However at this moment, the illusory figure formed from his perception was actually staring in a certain direction.
Boundless astral light cascaded down onto the illusory perception. That was a heaven-suppressing silhouette that stood towering in the skies. This constellation actually faintly interweaved into the shape of a human, standing in the air, suppressing the heavens. Every part of its body flickered with a dazzling runic light, as though it was fluttering unceasingly, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.
The surroundings of this human-shaped constellation were boundlessly vast, as though it didn't permit the existence of others of the same kind. Just by being there, it would be an existence that could suppress the starry space.
"Heaven-Suppressing Fiendgod Art, Suppression, Fiendgod Body Refinement, Supremely Strong Physique. This constellation should be suitable for me." Qin Wentian forcibly suppressed the urge to disperse his perception as he drifted towards the constellation. The closer he got, the stronger the suppression energy radiating from the constellation. This continued until Qin Wentian's perception also sensed a similar aura. At this instant, his perception directly vanished from its original location, traversing a boundless distance, directly landing on the constellation.
At this instant, in the 7th Heavenly Layer of the Nine Heavenly Layers, numerous beams of astral light traversed a boundless distance, cascading downwards onto the silhouette in the Royal Palace of Grand Xia. That silhouette trembled violently, but he still maintained his clarity of mind, borrowing the astral light to condense his astral soul.
… …
Something major happened in the Royal Sacred Region.
This matter was caused by a piece of news. This news soon shocked the entire world, causing a huge commotion in the Royal Sacred Region.
This news originated from the hegemon of the Royal Sacred Region, the Royal Sacred Sect. The Royal Sacred Sect announced to the world that Qin Wentian had repeatedly offended their prestige. Hence, the Royal Sacred Sect decided to issue a kill order, wanting to kill Qin Wentian.
As a character of the Royal Sacred Region, the top ranker of the Immortal Martial Realm, Qin Wentian, the Royal Sacred Sect actually issued a kill order against him. One could very well imagine how intense the commotion would be.
That was the hegemon of the Royal Sacred Region, the Royal Sacred Sect. They actually issued a kill order against a junior of the younger generation? This was simply an unimaginable matter. In these tens of thousands of years, only Qin Wentian had enjoyed such treatment.
"Finally, the Royal Sacred Sect still wants to act against Qin Wentian. Back then when Quinn died, Qin Wentian had already formed a grudge with the Royal Sacred Sect. That fellow is truly arrogant and powerful enough, causing the Royal Sacred Sect to go to war for him. However, if the hegemon of the world wants to kill him, how can Qin Wentian survive?"
Many mused in their hearts. Most probably, this era-suppressing genius of the Royal Sacred Region was about to fall.
This time around, the Royal Sacred Sect had truly made up their minds. They announced to the world that if there was a young man below a hundred years of age who could kill Qin Wentian, he or she would be able to directly enter the Royal Sacred Sect and become a disciple of the Core Faction.
As for the others who managed to kill Qin Wentian, they would also be rewarded with a peak-tier Celestial Phenomenon cultivation art and a high-grade fifth-ranked divine weapon.
At the same time, the Royal Sacred Sect also announced the location of Qin Wentian's current location. Qin Wentian was currently residing in Grand Xia, the desolate land of the Royal Sacred Region.
How could such news not cause shock and frenzy?
Naturally, there were also people who speculated. Since the Royal Sacred Sect knew the location of Qin Wentian, why didn't they directly kill their way over to kill Qin Wentian but chose to announce this to the world instead?
What was the Royal Sacred Sect doing this for?
The Royal Sacred Sect's decision to kill Qin Wentian was a command given by the Sacred Emperor himself. Now that they knew the Medicine Sovereign had broken through to the Sacred Emperor realm, they knew that there was another layer of meaning behind their decision to kill Qin Wentian. They wanted to see the Medicine Sovereign's determination when facing the Sacred Emperor and see if he would still disobey the Sacred Emperor's order and protect Qin Wentian.
They wanted to tell the world who the hegemon of this region was. They wanted to see the attitude of the Medicine Sovereign, what would he do?
If the Medicine Sovereign really wanted to protect Qin Wentian, it was fine as well. The Sacred Emperor was their backing and rather than suffering the revenge of the Medicine Sovereign after killing Qin Wentian, they would rather choose to see the Medicine Sovereign's attitude and determination first. By doing so, they could reduce unnecessary losses.
A terrifying tempest was currently gushing towards Grand Xia from the Royal Sacred Region. Many experts of the Royal Sacred Region were heading towards Grand Xia, preparing to kill Qin Wentian.
And among these powers heading to Grand Xia, the Grand Shang Empire, the Violet Thunder Sect and the Di Clan were the most active. Undoubtedly, they were the ones who wanted Qin Wentian's life the most.
Those from the Battle Sword Sect were all worried for Qin Wentian. In fact, when the Emperor of Ye, Ye Qingyun, received the order to kill Qin Wentian, he immediately headed towards Grand Xia.
Qin Wentian of Grand Xia was immersed in his cultivation until one day, he received a letter from the Royal Sacred Region. This letter was written by the Chief Hall Lord of the Star River Association, and the contents of the letter caused Qin Wentian to feel fear in his heart.
He had already guessed that the power of the Star River Association wasn't limited to Grand Xia. However, he didn't expect that the power of the Star River Association didn't only originate from the Royal Sacred Region. Its history was even longer compared to the Royal Sacred Sect. Not only that, it originated from outside the Royal Sacred Region. The Star River Association in the Royal Sacred Region was merely the tip of the iceberg.
The content of the letter was to invite him to join the Star River Association. As long as he nodded his head in agreement, the Star River Association would be willing to send him out of the Royal Sacred Region and nurture him in the outside world. If that was the case, they would naturally let bygones be bygones. But if he wasn't willing to accept, he would have to make a public apology and release the restrictions placed on the Star River Association in Grand Xia.
However, regardless of which condition it was, Qin Wentian wasn't willing to accept it. He also replied with a simple sentence: This matter ends here!
He would expel the Star River Association from Grand Xia and forget about this matter. All grudges of the past would be written off with a single stroke.
However, Qin Wentian felt that the other party most probably wouldn't accept it.
Not long after the letter was sent out, the Battle Sword Sect sent news to the world. The Royal Sacred Sect had issued a kill order, wanting to kill Qin Wentian.
After which, Ye Qingyun arrived at Grand Xia.
In the royal palace, Qin Wentian and Ye Qingyun were strolling on the stone steps when Ye Qingyun spoke, "Wentian, it's better for you to leave the Royal Sacred Region. This time around, the Royal Sacred Sect came with such a domineering aura, they're determined to kill you. I can contact the Immortal Martial Realm and as long as you agree, I can get the envoys to send you out."
Qin Wentian's eyes stared straight ahead, he didn't reply immediately. Leaving the Royal Sacred Region was something that would happen sooner or later. He wanted to pursue the strongest cultivation realm and pursue his origins. He had to leave this place no matter what. But was he really going to abandon everything and flee with his tail between his legs?
"The Royal Sacred Sect has finally issued a kill order for me. Seems like the Sacred Emperor has already agreed to it." Qin Wentian mumbled. Back then at his wedding in Chu, the experts from the Royal Sacred Sect had all been killed. The Royal Sacred Sect would definitely report this matter to the Royal Sacred Sect. If they wanted to kill him again, they would have to obtain the approval of the Sacred Emperor first.
