Second Step Cultivator
"The five strongest people in the Central Mainland? Even stronger than the Nine Nether Demon Lord and the rest? Is it the Nine Tribulation Masters of Creation, or has it surpassed the Nine Tribulation Masters of Creation? "
Ning Qi's eyes moved slightly.
"It should be the peak of the Nine Tribulation Masters of Creation. If there's anyone in the Central Mainland who has surpassed the Nine Tribulation Masters of Creation, it can only be Dao Yan Celestial Emperor …"
Ye Wanjun's tone was also a little uncertain.
"Are there any realms above the Nine Tribulation Masters of Creation?"
Ning Qi was a little curious.
"No, legend has it that once one breaks through the Nine Tribulation Masters of Creation, one can become an Immortal and go to the legendary Immortal World, but …"
"But what?"
"In the past few eras, I've never heard of anyone taking that step. The Central Mainland has a history of the Five Classics, which records the deeds of the ancient almighties, and there's no lack of those who became Immortals. It's just that the era of those almighties is too far away from us, and many of the deeds can't be verified … Those cultivators who took the second step might not have really existed. Otherwise, why wouldn't there be any traces left behind?"
"Is that Dao Yan Celestial Emperor considered a second step cultivator? I remember that when he was born thousands of years ago, he ruled the world. Could it be that you guys didn't resist back then? "
"You don't know?"
Ye Wanjun looked at Ning Qi strangely.
"What should I know?"
Ning Qi was slightly stunned.
"Legend has it that a long, long time ago, the ruler of the Central Mainland was the ancient Heavenly Dragon, and he was called the Dragon Emperor Ancestor. The Dragon Emperor Ancestor ruled this world for an unknown number of years, and at that time, Dao Yan Celestial Emperor already existed. Legend has it that the Dragon Emperor Ancestor picked up a … dragon that was abandoned by his own race …"
"Dao Yan Celestial Emperor was a dragon?"
Ning Qi's eyes were slightly strange. As for the Little Six that Ye Wanjun mentioned, he had never mentioned it, so he didn't know whether it was true or not.
"I don't know what happened after that, but the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor and the Dragon Emperor Ancestor became enemies. In the last epoch, the Dragon Emperor Ancestor disappeared, and the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor was given the title of the Dragon Emperor Ancestor. After that, there were several upheavals in the Central Mainland, and many geniuses appeared and tried to kill the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor. However, no matter how monstrous their aptitudes were, they were never a match for the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor. Many of them had already achieved the cultivation of the five great Yuan Venerates … Recently, the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor seemed to be seriously injured and sealed himself. He only came out a few thousand years ago and was called the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor.
Ye Wanjun said lightly.
"You're saying … There were many geniuses who tried to assassinate the Dao Yan Immortal Emperor?"
Ning Qi's eyes flickered.
"Almost every few million years, one would appear. The last genius almost succeeded, but he still died in the end. However, to be able to make the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor seal himself for such a long time, he can be considered a rare expert in the world."
"But before this, why have I never heard of these things?"
Ning Qi looked at Ye Wanjun suspiciously.
Ye Wanjun said lightly, "There is only one of the five ancient histories in this world, and the real one is in the hands of the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor. My master has a copy, and there are very few cultivators in the world who can see the five ancient histories. Naturally, you have never heard of those things. Just treat it as a story. Even my master doesn't really believe the truth of it, but if the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor can really live for so long, his cultivation base must have already reached the second step …"
The second step …
A trace of fear flashed in Ning Qi's eyes. Because of Little Six, he would have to fight the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor sooner or later. If the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor's cultivation base had already reached the realm of a true Immortal in the Celestial Realm, he would probably be the strongest enemy Ning Qi had ever met in history!
"Those geniuses who tried to assassinate the Dao Yan Celestial Emperor, could it be related to Little Six …"
Ning Qi decided to find a chance to ask Little Six about it.
"This is the Pudu Celestial King Palace. Unauthorized people are not allowed to come near!"
A loud shout was heard.
"I'm Ning Beixuan, and I'm here to see the Pudu Celestial King."
Ning Qi said loudly.
Ye Wanjun stood beside him and did not speak. When the other party heard the name Ning Beixuan, he was stunned at first, then a trace of shock appeared on his face. He carefully looked at Ning Qi and quickly said respectfully, "Sir, please wait for a moment!"
After saying that, he turned around and quickly walked into the Pudu Celestial King Palace. Not long after, the Pudu Celestial King Palace's chief steward, who Ning Qi had met once before, hurried out. He smiled at Ning Qi and Ye Wanjun and said loudly, "So it's the North Mystic Celestial King and Fairy Wanjun. Please come in."
"North Mystic Celestial King …"
Ye Wanjun looked at Ning Qi with a strange expression.
When the Pudu Celestial King Palace's chief steward saw this, he laughed and said, "Although the North Mystic Celestial King's cultivation has not reached the Sixth Tribulation, you are able to kill four Celestial Kings in one fell swoop. Now, your name has spread far and wide. I'm sure it will be easy for you to get the title of Celestial King in the future. I'm just greeting you in advance."
"Sir, you flatter me."
Ning Qi cupped his hands and said with a smile.
"You're too kind. Please come with me."
The chief steward laughed and made a gesture to invite them in.
When they were about to see Immortal King Pudu, Ning Qi glanced at Ye Wanjun. Ye Wanjun was slightly taken aback and stopped walking. "I'll wait for you here."
The chief steward rolled his eyes and quickly reached out to the maidservant standing at the side of the corridor. "Show Fairy Wanjun around the Immortal King Palace."
"Fairy Wanjun, please follow me."
The maidservant walked respectfully to Ye Wanjun and said in a low voice.
Ye Wanjun glanced at Ning Qi indifferently and left with the maidservant. Then, Ning Qi was led by the chief steward to the residence of Immortal King Pudu.
It was a very ordinary study room without too many decorations. There was only a small table and a few rush cushions. There was a picture hanging on the wall, which depicted a fisherman fishing. Many fish in the river poked their heads out and seemed to be observing the fisherman. It was a very strange picture.
The chief steward bowed respectfully to Immortal King Pudu and left, leaving only Ning Qi and Immortal King Pudu in the study room. After looking at each other for a few breaths, Immortal King Pudu smiled and said, "Why have you come to see me today?"
"I'm here today to express my gratitude. If it wasn't for Immortal King Pudu, I would have died in Dao Expansion Immortal City."
Ning Qi cupped his hands and said.
At that time, if Immortal King Heng He did not have scruples about Immortal King Pudu and hardened his heart to kill him, even if Ning Qi did not die, he would at least lose a few layers of skin. Therefore, he was indebted to Immortal King Pudu.
"There's no need to thank me. I just felt that you have an excellent aptitude and will certainly have great achievements in the future. I just didn't expect that in just a few thousand years, your combat strength has reached such a level. I'm afraid even I … am no match for you …"
Immortal King Pudu said with a smile.
Ning Qi had a smile on his face and did not answer. After a moment of silence, Immortal King Pudu said, "Are you here for the two people who traveled with you?"
"Yes. May I know where they are now?"
