At this moment, the Central Continent, the entire world, and the various past and future were all extremely clear in Fang Xingjian's eyes. The entire world's history also kept on developing at an accelerated rate.
After Tang Xian and Huang Shan received the legacy, they immediately entered seclusion to cultivate. The two of them comprehended the ultimate arts together, and with their tier six Divine level cultivation, their martial arts progressed at a tremendous pace. After discovering the Nine-Tiered Heavens, they immediately attained a breakthrough to tier seven of the Divine level.
However, as they went through different parallel worlds, different experiences, and different cultivation, the two of them gradually had different understandings of Fang Xingjian's martial arts and started to diverge.
As their cultivation increased, this divergence became increasingly deeper and greater. In the end, since they could not reach a conclusion through discussion, they could only fight each other to verify who was better.
However, as top notch tier seven Divine level experts, both of them were prideful people. This was especially after they discovered that the Realm Traversing Gate had disappeared and the connection between the higher and lower realms had been severed. They felt that they were the best in the world and were even more unwilling to lower their heads and admit their mistakes.
This led to repeated battles. The friction between the two of them also grew increasingly greater. Finally, after a great battle, the two of them parted ways.
While Tang Xian and Huang Shan were cultivating in seclusion to strive for tier seven of the Divine level, Zhao Hao and Concubine Shu were also improving at a rapid pace.
Zhao Hao was a rare martial arts genius that was hard to come by even in 1,000 years. He was also able to create a supreme fist technique like the Son of Heaven's Dragon Fist, which condensed Dragon Qi. His martial arts talent was extraordinary.
Having received Fang Xingjian's martial arts legacy, he was like a tiger that had grown wings and a fish that had returned to water. He let go of all the important matters of the imperial court and wholeheartedly started to train in seclusion. It was because the exchange with Concubine Shu this time around had made him understand the importance of power and realize that he was not strong enough.
Moreover, the world was in turmoil now. The disciples of the various higher realm's immortal sects in the Central Continent were stirring up trouble, seizing resources and wealth. Without sufficient power, there was no way for him to suppress these disciples.
Therefore, regardless of whether it was a high-ranking official being killed, the northern herdsmen rebelling, the southern chieftains rebelling, the increasing number of bandits, or the many prestigious clans watching from the sidelines with the support of the immortal sects' disciples, trying their best to extract resources, Zhao Hao did not come out of seclusion.
For three whole months, as chaos broke out everywhere in the world, countless disciples of the Immortal Sects discovered the disappearance of the Inter-Realm Gate. Things took a turn for the worse, and they had less and less apprehension.
From time to time, there would be disciples of the immortal sects killing the officials of the imperial court, or declaring themselves as kings, or slaughtering the rich and powerful. There was even a disciple of the Great Sun Sect killing the governor of a province, looting the Hall of Peculiarity, and taking away half a year's worth of tributes from the entire Western Region.
The world was shaken and the people were terrified, but Zhao Hao stayed in the secret room and cultivated in seclusion.
It had been far, far too long since Zhao Hao had devoted himself to cultivation like this. With his aptitude, he usually had to manage Yin and Yang, govern the country, and hide the entire world in his heart. Even if he only diverted a small portion of his attention to cultivation, his cultivation would still increase with each passing day.
And after concentrating on training, the effect was even more obvious.
In particular, Fang Xingjian's legacy was far too complete and systematic. It almost perfectly guided cultivators on how to strive to reach tier seven of the Divine level from tier one of the Divine level. This was of great help to Zhao Hao.
Therefore, three months later, the world was in chaos, and the disciples of various immortal sects took up territories and established themselves as kings. Zhao Hao finally came out of seclusion. Right now, he had secretly cleared several levels of the Nine-Tiered Nine-Tiered Heavens and reached tier five of the Divine level at one go.
Amongst the many martial arts legacies, Zhao Hao was most fond of and invested in the Royal Heavenly Great Art and the Ascendant Heavenly Seal. He combined them with his Son of Heaven's Dragon Fist and created the Heavenly Emperor's Dragon Fist. From the name of this neo martial art, one could tell Zhao Hao's ambition.
After obtaining Fang Xingjian's martial arts legacy and his whereabouts in the higher realm were unknown, the ambition in Zhao Hao's heart was burning up like flames.
After coming out of seclusion, he swept through the world. With his tier five Divine level cultivation and the Heavenly Emperor's Dragon Fist, ordinary immortal sects' disciples were no match for him. After killing 12 immortal sects' disciples who were between tier two to five of the Divine level, Zhao Hao soon shocked the world and stabilized the situation.
During this process, he obtained many martial arts and resources from the higher realm's immortal sects and started to strive for tier six of the Divine level.
Just as he was wiping out the immortal sects' disciples, the remaining immortal sects' disciples also banded together, planning to kill Zhao Hao and divide the world equally.
Relying on Fang Xingjian's martial arts legacy, Empress Shu went into seclusion for several months and also reached tier five of the Divine level. She became the strongest expert among the immortal sects' disciples and focused on cultivating the Seven Emotions Sword and Heart Sword Path in Fang Xingjian's martial arts legacy.
Relying on her absolute power, as well as the Seven Emotions Sword and Heart Sword Path's power to grasp the hearts of people, Empress Shu performed a series of methods that allowed her to summon clouds and rain with a flip of her palms. Very soon, she gained control over all the immortal sects' disciples. Cheng Li established the Myriad Immortals Association and became their leader, fighting against Zhao Hao.
As the battle progressed, the attacks between the two parties became increasingly intense. Although there were many Divine level experts in the Myriad Immortals Association, none of them, including Empress Shu, were a match for Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao's Heavenly Emperor's Dragon Fist had gathered the Dragon Qi and the people's will from a large part of the Central Continent. Each punch and kick contained a tremendous force that was hard to fend off, and he managed to suppress them single-handedly. However, because the other party had a large number of people, Zhao Hao did not manage to wipe them all out in one go in order to not endanger the commoners.
Half a year later, he attained another breakthrough and reached tier six of the Divine level.
With a single Heavenly Emperor's Dragon Fist, the entire Myriad Immortals Association was annihilated. Several tens of Divine level experts were either killed or subdued. Empress Shu was even captured alive by Zhao Hao and brought back to the palace, where she was personally suppressed.
With this, the world was settled, and all the people were loyal to him. Zhao Hao's Heavenly Emperor's Dragon Fist became increasingly unfathomable. Seething Dragon Qi continued to pour onto his body, connecting his will with all the people in the world. Each and every one of his actions affected the entire world.
It was also at this moment that Tang Xian and Huang Shan parted ways. The former continued to focus on his cultivation while the latter headed straight to the palace, wanting to control Zhao Hao.
Huang Shan had thought that with his cultivation at tier seven of the Divine level, he would be able to crush Zhao Hao and control him easily. After all, tier seven of the Divine level meant that he had the ability to accelerate time.
However, he had not expected that although Zhao Hao's cultivation was only at tier six of the Divine level, he had unified the world and gained the loyalty of all the people. This allowed his Heavenly Emperor's Dragon Fist to reach an unbelievable level. Even when Huang Shan unleashed his full power, he was unable to break through Zhao Hao's Heavenly Palace's defenses.
As the two of them fought, the atmosphere in the entire Imperial Capital's sky was completely vaporized during the battle. Countless people were exposed to the radiation from the starry sky, and the Imperial Capital could be said to have suffered heavy casualties on this day.
Although Huang Shan was unable to break through Zhao Hao's defenses, Zhao Hao was also unable to truly defeat Huang Shan, who could accelerate time.
