In the end, Shi Yuanbai still accepted the edict. Martial arts was not the same as the heartless path.
And to be honest, the royal family had given him enough face. The treatment was not bad. Although the territory was a little small, 30% of Miracle City's taxes was not low.
It could completely make up for the difference in territory. The royal family's intention was to stay at ease and not cause trouble. They also did not overly oppress a Martial Emperor.
An expert who could establish a country in the Tianxuan Continent would definitely have some trump cards. How could a random Martial Emperor make them submit?
Mo Tiankong had no choice. In the blink of an eye, he had reached the Wu Sheng Realm and reached the peak of the continent. Even if he had countermeasures, it would be too late to use them.
After all, who had seen cultivation jump? Today was the Venerable Realm, tomorrow was the Martial Emperor Realm, and the day after was the Wu Sheng Realm.
Although it was not that exaggerated, it was not far off.
Even if Shi Yuanbai's talent was extraordinary, after reaching the Martial Emperor Realm, his cultivation would probably be incomparably slow.
Because the family could no longer provide any help. They could still provide cultivation items for the Venerable Realm, but it was the first time the Shi family had a Martial Emperor Realm expert.
In the future, Shi Yuanbai would have to deal with his own cultivation.
This imperial edict also did not confine Shi Yuanbai. He could also go out and travel in search of opportunities.
It just meant that the family was in Yan Qing's hands and he should not cause trouble.
In addition, the Shi family's roots were in the Aquamarine Empire, so it was not a big deal to accept this edict.
Shi Yuanbai was only afraid that the royal family would target him and disturb his breakthrough. Since they did not do so now, there was no problem.
The video ended here.
Mo Tiankong yawned. It was a little boring. The royal family did not make a move on Shi Yuanbai in the end.
As long as a Martial Emperor did not betray the country, it was still worth roping in.
Of course, all of this was based on the strength of the empire.
If Yan Qing could not easily suppress or even kill Shi Yuanbai, he would not let him break through.
For example, if Yan Qing only had the cultivation of a low-rank Martial Emperor, would he be able to watch Shi Yuanbai break through?
This was an uncontrollable factor. Even if Shi Yuanbai reached Miracle City, as long as he dared to break through, he would be killed immediately.
Even if Mo Tiankong was here, he would still take the risk.
How could she allow others to sleep beside her bed?
It was obvious how difficult it was to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm. The gap between Shi Yuanbai and Yan Qing was average. If Shi Yuanbai cultivated according to the rules, it might take him ten years or decades to catch up.
The main point was that Yan Qing himself was also brimming with talent. Compared to Mo Tiankong, he seemed more ordinary.
But in fact, Yan Qing was only fifty or sixty years old. In terms of talent, he was probably not below Shi Yuanbai.
Moreover, he had the resources of the entire empire. If he still did not have the confidence to suppress Shi Yuanbai, how could he control the power of a country?
There was also another piece of information that Mo Tiankong did not know. During this period of time, Yan Qing had broken through to rank nine Martial Emperor. He had officially stepped into the ranks of peak Martial Emperors. The Divine Path was within reach.
Mo Tiankong wasn't the only one who was improving. The others were improving as well.
It was just that he couldn't compare to Mo Tiankong, who had cheats.
Of course, when he reached Wu Sheng Realm, Mo Tiankong also felt that the speed of his cultivation was getting slower and slower.
This was his personal feeling. Compared to the monthly settlement in the past, the quarterly settlement now was really very slow.
Mo Tiankong could only think about it. If he said it out loud, Mo Tiankong would probably be beaten up.
Although Mo Tiankong was not afraid of peak Wu Sheng experts, it still depended on the number.
If it was just one, Mo Tiankong was even confident in killing him. However, he would have to revive the Nanming Li Fire Sword.
If it was two, Mo Tiankong and the three beasts should be able to contend against one wave. Of course, they would definitely have to run in the end.
If there were more than two peak Wu Sheng experts to surround and kill Mo Tiankong, then it would be fine to run.
Peak Wu Sheng experts were not cabbages. There should not be many of them in the Profound Sky Continent.
Mo Tiankong estimated that there were more than ten of them. If there were more than three, then Mo Tiankong would be in danger.
After all, the Nanming Li Fire Sword was a newly forged divine weapon. Its origin was not strong. Plus, Mo Tiankong had consumed a lot of it. It might not be able to last long in a big battle.
After all, a weapon was only a weapon. It still depended on the strength of the person using it.
Before reaching the Martial God Realm, one would not be able to unleash much power.
It was only at the level of a half divine weapon.
Of course, there was no need to surround and kill him. After all, he was a member of the human race.
Besides, there was no deep hatred. At most, they only coveted the Hollow Shadow Stab.
However, although they wanted it, they would not easily become enemies with him.
This was also the reason why Mo Tiankong could still be free and unfettered during this period of time.
Even Gu Yan and Meng Xian did not mention this matter.
After all, internal strife was not a wise thing to do. If it were not for the fact that the sea beasts could not adapt to living on land, most likely they would not be able to keep much of the Profound Sky Continent.
It was just like how humans did not like living in the sea. Even if they had high power, it would not be a problem for them to live in the sea. However, they could not adapt to it and felt more comfortable on land.
In the Chaotic Sea, not all beasts could live in the sea. There were also beasts that lived on both land and sea.
Some sea beasts might need to go on land due to their different species. There were also some that killed human martial artists to increase their power.
After all, martial artists ate beast meat to replenish their blood and Qi. Human martial artists could also be eaten by sea beasts.
Therefore, when the sea beasts went on a rampage, some powerful sea beasts that harbored evil intentions would also incite a sea beast rampage.
The garrisoned martial artists guarding the coastline were also people who were tempting the sea beasts to attack them like pills of flesh and blood.
Of course, this was not the only explanation. If there were no stationed troops guarding the coastline, the sea beasts would have directly invaded the cities and towns.
Therefore, there was an endless stream of sea beasts coming ashore.
If there were powerful sea beasts, naturally, the stationed experts would take care of them.
Although they were enemies with the sea beasts, they were not completely hostile.
After all, there were countless powerful sea beasts in the endless Chaotic Sea. If they really attacked the Profound Sky Continent, Mo Tiankong doubted that they could hold out for two hours.
Holding out for two hours meant that the continent would be destroyed. Mo Tiankong felt that less than a hundred Saints would be difficult no matter how he looked at it.
As for middle and low-level martial artists, the number of sea beasts would definitely exceed them by a million times.
Two hours was the time that a Saint Realm expert could survive after the continent was destroyed and sunk into the sea.
Forget it, forget it. There was no need to think too much about it.
The sea beasts were not used to living on land. This was the main reason why humans and sea beasts could live in relative peace.
After exiting the video, Mo Tiankong clicked on a random video.
In the video, a green stream of light flashed across the sky.
"This is …"
Mo Tiankong stood up and stared at the video again.
He could not tell what the green light was. However, the place it flew past seemed to be above the floating island.
The angle of the video was just right, so Mo Tiankong watched the video again.
However, he still could not tell. It felt like some kind of weapon or life form.
The main reason was that the green light was too fast. It disappeared in a flash.
Mo Tiankong was not on the floating island, so it was normal that he could not tell.
Who would know what it was if he watched the video up close.
However, it had flown out of the floating island.
Mo Tiankong rested his chin on his hand and thought for a while.
The floating island had been investigated by the Saints many times. It was almost turned upside down. If there really was something, it would be impossible for them not to find it.
Before he left, Mo Tiankong had searched the entire island.
Looking at the trajectory of the green light, it cut through space. Whether it was a life form or a weapon, it was definitely extraordinary.
'Should I go to the floating island again?' Mo Tiankong thought.
However, the auction was approaching. He could not leave now.
The Saint Realm Great Demon would not be at ease leaving it to the Zhang Family.
After all, there would be many experts coming. Without him, they would not be able to hold the fort.
A Saint Realm Great Demon was enough for these martial artists to take the risk.
He temporarily suppressed the thought of going to check it out. After all, since the green light had flown out of the floating island, it was most likely not in the same place.
Even if he went now, he might not be able to find it. Hence, there was no need to rush. However, he still had to go.
Mo Tiankong felt that this thing was definitely something good. It would be best if he could find it when he went to take a look.
It was fine if he could not find it.
.....
Time passed quickly. Three days passed in a flash.
Miracle City had a large number of high level martial artists in these three days.
Even at night, the prosperity did not decrease. The moonstone shone through the night. The street vendors, shops, restaurants, and inns were all open at night.
Of course, this was because of the auction that Mo Tiankong had organized. After all, the items being sold were items from the palace of a Martial God.
These three days were just enough to educate ordinary martial artists. Hence, it was not strange for Miracle City to have such a reputation.
Even if Mo Tiankong would not take out some treasures to sell, just a Saint Realm Great Demon was enough to attract the attention of various experts.
Hence, there were many experts who came to Miracle City in these few days.
Martial King Realm cultivators were at the bottom, but there were many of them.
Martial Emperor Realm and Venerable Realm martial artists were also frequently seen.
Some Martial Emperor Realm experts were more low-key and did not show up.
They were not here to cause trouble, so there was no use in being high-profile.
Many of them were even rulers of countries.
They were all here for the Saint Realm Great Demon's flesh and blood. They were eager to keep a low profile and not attract the attention of competitors.
Since three days ago, Mo Tiankong had been spreading his domain. With so many martial artists, it was inevitable that there would be some friction. Miracle City's ten thousand city guards were clearly not enough.
There were too many high level experts. Even Old Man Zhang could not handle it well.
Hence, the auction was organized in Mo Tiankong's name. Naturally, Mo Tiankong was also responsible for it.
The domain could cover the entire Miracle City. As long as there was trouble, they would be thrown out of the city and not allowed to enter.
Mo Tiankong had also found some entertainment in these three days.
Even in Miracle City, there were still martial artists causing trouble. Mo Tiankong's Divine Soul Projection had been sent out several times.
There were even Venerable Realm martial artists fighting. Mo Tiankong directly beat the two of them up and threw them out of the city.
In these three days, the auction outside the eastern city gate was also operating at high speed.
Occasionally, there would be Zhang Family martial artists going in and out. Although the auction was outside the city, it was still relatively close to the eastern city gate. The domain's power could cover the area.
There was no problem in terms of safety.
The transportation light door at the southwest city gate was used much more frequently than usual. After all, each transportation cost a thousand spirit stones. There were very few low level martial artists who could afford it.
Most of the people in the Profound Sky Continent were low level martial artists. It was a good thing that they could not afford to use the transportation light door. However, they could still use the transportation array. It would just take a bit more time.
Today, Mo Tiankong woke up early. He woke up around eight o 'clock. The auction usually started around ten o' clock.
He had originally planned to sleep in. However, the domain had always been open. With Wu Sheng's expert entering the domain, Mo Tiankong was naturally alerted.
Speaking of which, how to sleep and open the domain at the same time was simple. He just had to use a strand of his Divine Soul to support the domain.
Hence, Mo Tiankong did not sleep in. He took a step forward and tore the space apart. Mo Tiankong disappeared from the shop.
At the southwest city gate, Soaring Dragon Wu Sheng had just stepped out of the transportation light door when he sensed that he had stepped into a Saint's domain.
Was this transportation light door a good tool for sneak attacks? Accidentally stepping into another Saint's domain while the other party had been waiting for a long time was very easy to get injured.
Although a Saint's recovery ability was strong, if he was injured in a battle with someone of the same rank, he could reverse the situation and gain the upper hand.
"So it's Soaring Dragon Wu Sheng."
Mo Tiankong walked out of the space and said with a smile.
He did not expect the Wu Sheng to be Soaring Dragon Wu Sheng. Mo Tiankong had a good impression of him.
Furthermore, Soaring Dragon Wu Sheng was also a high-ranked Wu Sheng. He had the ability to tear his domain apart and leave.
In terms of cultivation, Mo Tiankong was only a second-grade Wu Sheng.
"Wushuang Wu Sheng."
Soaring Dragon Wu Sheng clasped his hands and said. After all, Miracle City was Mo Tiankong's territory. Etiquette was still required. He was not here to cause trouble.
"I wonder why Soaring Dragon Wu Sheng is here."
Without much idle chatter, Mo Tiankong went straight to the point. A high-ranked Wu Sheng was here. Could it be that there was something in the auction that caught his eye?
"Wushuang Wu Sheng, if you don't mind, I'll call you Old Brother Mo. I'm naturally here for that Saint Stage Great Demon to help my grandson cultivate his fleshly body."
Soaring Dragon Wu Sheng was already very old. He was over 700 years old and had many grandchildren. However, one of them had extraordinary talent. He had already reached the Martial Emperor Realm and had hopes of reaching the Wu Sheng Realm.
The flesh of a Saint Stage Great Demon could strengthen one's fleshly body. Therefore, when he heard about the auction, he personally came over.
There were many requirements for breaking through to the Saint Stage. Not only did one need to perfect the five elements and form a domain, there were also requirements for the fleshly body.
The Jade Bone Body was also a requirement. Otherwise, Mo Tiankong had seen many peak Martial Emperors. Their five elements domains were almost perfect, but they were still unable to break through.
It was all to make up for the deficiency in the fleshly body. Since stepping into the martial path, the strength of the fleshly body was naturally not enough.
Wu Sheng Realm could tear through space. Therefore, the requirements for the fleshly body were naturally not low.
However, there were very few things that could strengthen the fleshly body. The higher the cultivation, the rarer the items.
Cultivating the martial path naturally required less resources than cultivating the fleshly body. Otherwise, the mainstream of the martial path would be to strengthen the fleshly body.
It was similar to the path of breaking through the heavens and earth.
