On the eighth floor, a man and two women walked toward the ninth floor, their clothes fluttering in the wind. Their black and white hair intertwined as they looked back.
After Ye Qinghan left, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
In the past few years, such a scene had never happened on the ninth floor except when the gods descended. Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye had suppressed the eighth floor with their auras alone. This was the first time in hundreds of thousands of years that something like this had happened! The old monsters who had lived for countless years could only look at their backs from afar as they watched them leave.
On the ninth floor, the Feather Emperor led a large group of Venerable Sovereigns to wait outside the city for Ye Qinghan's arrival. His face was full of smiles, and his killing intent was gone.
Ye Qinghan was very fast. With Emperor Ye on his shoulder and Li Shang in his hand, he appeared on the ninth floor with a Stellar Transposition.
The huge main city towered into the clouds. It was majestic and grand, and all kinds of laws coexisted. Ye Qinghan suddenly appeared outside the city. He saw so many Venerable Sovereigns. Most of them were middle-aged and vigorous. The old master of the Lie family couldn't be compared to them.
"Hahaha, Brother Ye has created a miracle. You fought on the first floor alone and suppressed the eighth floor until they didn't dare to speak. This old man admires you." The Feather Emperor cupped his fists and laughed.
Ye Qinghan wore a faint smile. The Nine Underworlds was the Nine Underworlds. Killing people wasn't a crime. Strength was everything. No matter how many people he killed, as long as they were afraid, he would be the king!
Ye Qinghan stared at the Feather Emperor. He knew that he was the strongest on the ninth floor, so he asked, "Greetings, Brother Ye. What's the mission on the ninth floor?"
The Feather Emperor's mouth twitched. Ye Qinghan could already be conferred a title. Wouldn't he be looking for trouble if he continued to make things difficult for him?
"Brother, you've already completed the conferment mission. Now you're just waiting to see if the almighty behind you will personally confer you the title of War Emperor." The Feather Emperor smiled. "Please come in. Whether you can be conferred the title of War Emperor will depend on tomorrow."
Ye Qinghan nodded and followed the Feather Emperor and the others into the city.
The Feather Emperor had arranged for a palace and even held a celebratory feast for Ye Qinghan and the others. This could be considered as an expression of goodwill. Ye Qinghan's fist had won him respect.
Countless forces came to visit and presented a large number of supreme treasures. Most of them were divine medicines that had been cultivated for tens of thousands of years. There were also some who presented divine weapon refinement materials. After all, Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye had just proven their dao and lacked monarch weapons.
Ye Qinghan did not stand on ceremony. These people were despicable. If he did not accept their gifts, they would think that he was looking down on them!
This meal lasted for an entire day. Ye Qinghan greeted everyone and introduced them to each other. In the future, if they offended each other in any way, they could be on friendly terms.
Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye returned to the palace and began to recuperate from their fatigue. They comprehended their own secret techniques and comprehended the origin of the Five Elements Dao Physique.
Until the second day, a figure descended. It was the Asura Overlord, the terrifying Medium God Priest. The moment he arrived on the ninth level, he alarmed everyone. The entire ninth level was under his control.
The God Priest was so powerful. His hair was as black as ink and he did not look old. He was at most forty years old. He had the vicissitudes of life and was awe-inspiring.
The Feather Emperor and all the other experts knelt down and bowed respectfully. The God Priest was a rare sight. The Medium God Priest was one of the three overlords of the Nine Underworlds. Many Venerable Sovereigns could not even be summoned in their entire lives!
Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye did not kneel. Instead, they bowed ninety degrees. This was the most respectful greeting.
Li Shang did not dare to disobey. She prostrated herself on the ground and waited for the God Priest to speak.
The Asura Overlord was not angry because Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye did not kneel. Instead, he was even more satisfied. No one knew if Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye's status would surpass that of the three overlords. The Asura and the Nine Underworlds were only outer disciples of the Nine Underworlds Master. They could not even be considered disciples. If Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye were accepted as inner disciples and received the true teachings of the Nine Underworlds Master, the three overlords would have to bow to them!
"Rise," the Asura Overlord said indifferently.
The experts slowly stood up and retreated to the side. They looked at Ye Qinghan with envy. It was only a Battle Monarch title, but it actually alarmed one of the three overlords. Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye's fortune would surpass everything!
"Ye Qinghan, Emperor Ye, the two of you have completed the Battle of Titles. After discussing with the other two overlords, this old man will bestow upon Ye Qinghan the title of 'Mad Martial', a Battle Monarch title, and Emperor Ye the title of 'Zither Empress', also a Battle Monarch title! I will bestow upon you two Lesser Godhoods, the Water Godhood and the Heavenly Soul Godhood. I will also pardon you for not kneeling before the gods, "the Asura Overlord said in a low voice.
The ninth floor was in an uproar. Bestowing a Godhood upon a Battle Monarch title was simply unprecedented. Especially the Heavenly Soul Godhood, which could strengthen one's soul by ten times. Emperor Ye walked the path of the soul. With the Godhood, no one below the Priesthood could match him!
The Feather Emperor's eyes were filled with shock and envy. He didn't even dare to show any hatred. He had worked so hard for the Godhood, but to no avail. Now, Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye had just become Great Emperors, but they had already received two Godhoods. It was simply infuriating!
Suddenly, two items that looked like top-grade God Crystals appeared in the Asura Overlord's hand. They were completely transparent! They contained an endless amount of energy. Once they self-destructed, they could definitely destroy any floor below the ninth floor!
The Godhood shone brightly and automatically appeared in front of Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye. Even if it was a reward, it wasn't up to them to choose. The Heavenly Soul Godhood appeared in front of Emperor Ye. This was her opportunity.
Ye Qinghan received the Water Godhood. It was rich in water elements and was almost completely compatible with Ye Qinghan's Five Elemental Dao Body. As long as his cultivation reached the peak of the Emperor Realm, he could instantly become a Priesthood God, the Water God Priesthood.
Everyone stared at the Godhoods in Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye's hands. They couldn't wait to snatch them. As long as they had the Godhood, they would have the opportunity to become a Priesthood God and enjoy endless years! Their status would also rise along with it.
"Put them away. The supreme Nine Remoteness Lord wants to see you. Follow me to the eighteenth floor." The Asura Overlord's eyes were full of reverence when he mentioned the Nine Remoteness Lord. They weren't on the same level.
Becoming a Priesthood God was like ascending to the heavens. Direct conflicts between Priesthoods were especially serious, but it was only limited to those of the same level. Lesser Priesthoods wouldn't dare to offend an Intermediate Priesthood God even if they had ten times the courage. Even the strongest Lesser Priesthood God would be like a mouse in front of a cat in front of the Asura Overlord!
Ye Qinghan finally showed some emotion. He had risked his life to see the Nine Remoteness Lord, and he finally got his reward!
Everyone was stunned. A Battle Emperor title had appeared in the past, but not even the Overlord had been alarmed, let alone the Nine Remoteness Lord!
Before anyone could react, the Asura Overlord reached out and grabbed Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye. Even Li Shang was taken away.
The Star Twining Vine wrapped around the Asura Overlord, but even if he didn't defend himself, the Star Twining Vine couldn't break through his defenses.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh — — —
The Asura Overlord was so fast that he could break through a level in an instant. Everywhere he passed, all living beings bowed down. Large numbers of Priesthoods knelt down, not daring to blaspheme the God's might.
…
On the eighteenth level, in a deep palace.
A white-haired old man opened his eyes slightly. His deep eyes ignored the confinement of time and space and saw the Asura Overlord speeding towards him. He glanced at Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye, then sighed and muttered to himself, "I wonder if the upper planes really exist, and if immortals really exist. The people of the past have long decayed. If we still can't find the profound meaning of immortality, will we, the remaining Upper Priesthoods, return to chaos?"
The eighteenth level was full of vitality, and the spiritual energy was extremely dense. Even the water was formed from spiritual liquid. However, other than plants and low-level creatures, there wasn't even a ghost.
The old man had cultivated here alone for a million years. In his lifetime, he had only taken in three Outer Sect disciples. They couldn't even be considered Outer Sect disciples. They were just menial servants. They were the three Overlords. He only gave them a few pointers, and they became Middle Priesthoods.
However, their talents couldn't catch the old man's eye. What the old man wanted was someone who could break through the shackles and create their own Great Dao. Ye Qinghan's Five Elemental Dao Body and even developed into the Chaos Dao Body were slightly acceptable to him. However, Emperor Ye's pure heart was unique in this world!
This desolate Mythological Era was filled with murderous and vicious aura. There were not many who had a pure heart. The moment the elder saw Renhuang Ye appear, she was filled with anticipation. As expected, after going through nine levels, Renhuang Ye's performance did not disappoint her.
One day later, Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye appeared at the intersection of the eighteenth and seventeenth levels. The Asura Overlord respectfully looked into the depths and said in a low voice, "The eighteenth level isn't somewhere I can enter. When you see Teacher, you must be respectful. Don't be casual. Do you hear me?"
Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye nodded at the same time. The Lord of the Abyss was one of the strongest people in the entire universe. He had lived for countless years and was worthy of respect.
"Leave this divine herb with me for now. When you come out, I'll give it to you." The Asura Overlord reached out and took Li Shang away. He said calmly, "Teacher didn't summon her. She can't enter the eighteenth level."
Li Shang panicked. Even a Lesser Sky God made her feel helpless, let alone an Intermediate God in front of her, the Lord of the Abyss!
Ye Qinghan stared at Li Shang and said in a low voice, "Stay here for now. When we're done with our business, we'll definitely come back to get you. Even if we don't have time to come back, I'm sure Senior will take good care of you. It's much better than staying by our side."
"Don't worry about that. As long as I'm here, this fellow Daoist won't be bullied," the Asura Overlord said calmly.
Ye Qinghan took the Star-twining Vine and Divine Bird, then led Emperor Ye into the eighteenth level. The transparent barrier outside the eighteenth level didn't stop them. The moment they entered the eighteenth level, a terrifying amount of Spiritual Qi entered Ye Qinghan and Emperor Ye's bodies. It turned into Emperor's power and strengthened their souls. The speed of their improvement was more than ten thousand times faster than the outside world!
The Star-twining Vine, Spirit-devouring Godly Hawk, the Multi-Colored Snake, and the God-Slaying Hawk in Emperor Ye's body all rushed out of their bodies and absorbed the Spiritual Qi with all their might. The God-Slaying Hawk especially, its body covered the sky as it flipped in the air. Its black feathers shone brightly and emitted an Emperor's aura. It could break free at any time and become a Rank-9 Divine Beast!
Ye Qinghan didn't fly. Instead, he walked forward. He had to show some respect to the supreme Lord of the Abyss.
