[Second Update, August 21st]
The news of Ye Xing challenging the Meng Dynasty spread like wildfire under the intentional spread of the Black Tiger King's men.
Since Ye Xing had full confidence in winning this life-and-death gamble, the Black Tiger King naturally wanted to make a big deal out of it. He wanted everyone in the world to know about this battle and pay attention to it, creating a huge wave of momentum.
Ye Xing, a Three Star Venerable, had challenged ten mid level Venerables of the Meng Dynasty. Such a challenge was suicidal in the eyes of the cultivators. If Ye Xing won in the end, the result could be imagined.
That would definitely shake the entire Star Continent. It would be a huge blow to the Great Yuan Dynasty's power.
At that time, the rumor of the Demonic Star in Chaotic Times would definitely shock every cultivator. Once they believed that the Demonic Star in Chaotic Times would definitely destroy the Great Yuan Dynasty, what confidence would they have in the Great Yuan Dynasty?
When the majority of the cultivators in the Star Continent lost confidence in the Great Yuan Dynasty, then the Great Yuan Dynasty's momentum would gain the upper hand.
What was momentum? What was luck?
The general trend was where the hearts of the people were, and where the hearts of the people were, it was the general trend. Going with the general trend was like the sun in the sky. If one's luck went against the general trend, it would be difficult to do anything. One would be obstructed everywhere. Naturally, one would be extremely unlucky.
Although the rumor of the Demonic Star in chaotic times had already spread throughout the Star Continent, it was only because of the influence of the Dark Star Sect in the East Divine Continent that many factions chose to go against the Great Yuan Dynasty. However, the other three continents still believed in the strength of the Great Yuan Dynasty, and the hearts of the ancient martial art practitioners still leaned towards the Great Yuan Dynasty.
As for the Middle Sky Continent, needless to say, the cultivators had absolute faith in the Great Yuan Dynasty. They did not believe that the Demonic Star in Chaotic Times could destroy the Great Yuan Dynasty.
Therefore, the current momentum of the world was still with the Great Yuan Dynasty. Even though Ye Xing had obtained the destiny of the Star Continent in the Starry Sky Arena, the Great Yuan Dynasty's actions were still like a hot knife through butter. Their luck was rather good.
The Black Biao King's current momentum was to break the Great Yuan Dynasty's momentum and cause it to be plagued with misfortune. When the cultivators from all over the Star Continent lost confidence in the Great Yuan Dynasty, they would naturally turn to the Dark Star Sect. Even if they only remained neutral, it would still be a great loss to the Great Yuan Dynasty.
While the news was rapidly spreading throughout the Star Continent, Ye Xing had already returned to the Dark Star Church.
"Wei Qingxuan had already broken through to the Astral Reaching Realm more than half a year ago. Since then, she has been in closed-door training. You only have less than half a month of training time, so don't disturb her. Focus on training the Dark Star Xuan Body and increase your strength as much as possible."
When Ye Xing asked about Wei Qingxuan, the Black Biao King said as he brought Ye Xing to the Dark Star Pagoda.
"Lord Emissary, the Young Hierarch is inside." The tower guardian, Zhou Kunshan, walked over.
The Black Biao King's gaze landed on the Darkstar Pagoda, and he asked, "How long has he been inside?"
Zhou Kunshan said, "It's been a few hours."
The Black Biao King said, "It should be out soon. Let's wait for a while."
Although Ye Xing was pressed for time, he could afford to wait for two to four hours.
Zhou Kunshan said, "The Young Hierarch's cultivation base has broken through to the seventh level of the Astral Reaching Realm. I estimate that he has been training in the pagoda for quite some time. Lord Emissary, if we wait, we might have to wait for two or three days."
Ye Xing remembered that when he first came to the Dark Star Pagoda, he had just finished participating in the East Divine Continent's Genius Competition and entered the Blood Edge Empire Academy. He was nineteen years old at that time, and just happened to meet the Dark Star Church's Young Hierarch, Zhuo Yupeng. At that time, Zhuo Yupeng was twenty-nine years old, and had just broken through to the sixth star Venerable realm. The Black Biao King said that he had broken the Dark Star Church's record.
At that time, Ye Xing felt that Zhuo Yupeng's cultivation speed was heaven-defying.
Now, two years had passed, and Zhuo Yupeng was already thirty-one years old. He had already broken through to the seventh star Venerable Lord realm, and still maintained the Dark Star Church's cultivation record. Moreover, he had high hopes of becoming a seventh star Venerable Lord before the age of thirty-five. He had high hopes of becoming the first person to become a King before the age of forty.
However, things had changed with the passage of time. Ye Xing was no longer as amazed by Zhuo Yupeng's cultivation speed as he had been two years ago.
Two years ago, Ye Xing had still been fighting against Astral Realm Enlightened Masters. In Ye Xing's eyes, Zhuo Yupeng had been extremely powerful. But now, even though Zhuo Yupeng had become a seventh star Venerable Lord, Ye Xing didn't feel the slightest bit of fear.
In these two years, Ye Xing had grown far too much. He had seen far too much. There was no one in the Star Continent that could make him feel amazed. On the contrary, he had become a person that all the martial artists in the Star Continent would marvel at.
"Old Zhou, tell him to come out!"
The Black Biao King waved his hand when he heard Zhou Kunshan say that he would have to wait for two or three days.
He could wait for two or four hours, or even a few hours, but the Black Biao King couldn't let Ye Xing wait for two or three days no matter what.
The battle had been set for the third day of the third month. Ye Xing's time was very tight. At most, he would only be able to cultivate for ten or so days.
The Black Biao King knew that Ye Xing's physique was special. He could absorb the Dark Star Energy endlessly to strengthen his body. As long as he had enough time, he would be able to cultivate the Dark Star Xuan Body to a very high level.
What Ye Xing needed now was time.
The battle on the third day of the third month was a matter of great importance. The Black Biao King had already sent people to spread the news throughout the entire Star Continent. When the time came, all the martial arts forces of the Star Continent would pay attention to this battle. This battle had to be won, they could not afford to lose.
If they won, they would break the Great Yuan Dynasty's momentum and achieve the Black Biao King's goal.
If they lost, they would instead help the Great Yuan Dynasty. Furthermore, Ye Xing would lose his life, and the Great Yuan Dynasty would be as stable as a mountain.
Zhou Kunshan was in a difficult position. He said, "Lord Emissary, the Young Sect Master is different from Ximen Zhu. Do you want to force him out as well?"
The Black Biao King patted Zhou Kunshan's shoulder and said, "Just do it. When he comes out, I can apologize to him. However, Ye Xing's time is tight. He must obtain the Dark Star Pagoda."
Ye Xing said, "Brother Black Biao, you don't have to force me. I can wait for two or three days."
Ye Xing had his own trump card. Even if he did not cultivate the Dark Star Xuan Body, he was confident that he could win this battle.
However, the Black Biao King was not Ye Xing. The Black Biao King did not know what kind of trump card Ye Xing had. He only knew that Ye Xing's challenge was very risky. Even if Ye Xing said that he was confident, he was still worried.
Therefore, as long as there was a glimmer of hope to make Ye Xing's strength stronger, the Black Biao King would not give up.
The Black Biao King said, "After this period of time, Zhuo Yupeng can cultivate however he wants. He doesn't have anything important to do. If he also has a life and death battle with the Dark Star Sect, I will also eliminate the others and let him cultivate alone in the Dark Star Pagoda. Old Zhou, go! This battle is very important. As the Young Sect Master of our sect, Zhuo Yupeng knows the importance of this matter. He can understand. "
"Alright …!"
Zhou Kunshan nodded and came to the side of the Dark Star Pagoda. He took out a token and pressed it on the formation that enveloped the Dark Star Pagoda.
Soon, a light flashed and a figure appeared, pushed out by the Dark Star Pagoda.
