Dominating Martial King

Chapter 2022: Chapter 659: Heaven’s Blessing (2)

Chu Xisheng then remained motionless, staring at the light sphere before him, a look of contemplation appearing in his eyes.

Previously unaware of what the ’Void Core’ truly was, he now had a bold idea after learning about it.

The ’Heavenly Path’ replicated by the Eight Heavenly Emperors was incomplete; could he possibly use the Ruyi Heavenly Rule to complete it?

Naturally, Chu Xisheng’s own strength could not accomplish this.

He was truly far from reaching that level of power.

However, he currently held the Divine Pact Stele and possessed the East Sovereign Essence.

Why not give it a try?

Chu Xisheng’s right hand suddenly emitted a cluster of seven-colored spirit light.

Now he didn’t need to rely on his Lifebound Divine Artifact to perceive its existence; he could control it with his hand.

As Chu Xisheng’s Ruyi Heavenly Rule, along with the Imitated Heavenly Rules, activated, the dazzling spirit light gradually released a brilliant radiance, resonating with the manifested ’Void Core’ phantom in the hall.

Chu Xisheng no longer intended to exchange for the item called ’Simulating Divine Yin’ in his Martial Arts Treasure Vault.

He had thought it through clearly.

His Lifebound Divine Artifact could not be controlled by others, but this did not mean that its Artifact Spirit could not be ’deceived’.

His opponent was the Lord of Deceit, so he must speculate about this person with the utmost malice!

Chu Xisheng now felt extremely fortunate that he hadn’t taken a shortcut.

He relied on his own strength to break through all eighteen layers of sealing and had not missed even one of the eighteen secret medicines.

Only in his early years did he rely on the power of a divine artifact to rapidly enhance his True Yuan reserves, but he later supplemented and rebuilt this foundation with the power of the Pangu Blood Pool and the Heaven and Earth Root.

No matter what tricks the Lord of Deceit played with his divine artifact, it would not affect his own cultivation.

As for the Heavenly Rule and Martial Arts, what he truly mastered and learned, no one could take from him!

A moment later, Chu Xisheng took a deep breath and put away the East Sovereign Essence.

A difficult-to-conceal excitement and joy appeared in his eyes.

——This is the blessing of Heaven upon the Human Clan!

No! It should be said that the East Emperor and Tai Emperor, the two Heavenly Emperors, plotted far ahead, leaving the key for the Human Clan to rise again before their fall.

However, he still lacked a powerful Heavenly Rule—at least above the sixty-fourth layer—to truly complete this step of a robust Heavenly Rule. The current strength of the Divine Pact Stele still couldn’t forcefully borrow the Heavenly Rule from those Emperors and Ancestor God ranked deities from thousands of miles away.

For now, the plan was to slowly lay out the chips. His Primordial Spirit Power also needed strengthening, or he would follow the fate of the Eight Heavenly Emperors, having his primordial spirit overwhelmed by the Power of Heaven.

Moreover, through the True Spirit left by the Eight Heavenly Emperors, Chu Xisheng could sense some abnormalities with the Void Core.

Truly, searching high and low without finding—

Chu Xisheng then withdrew his thoughts and exited the Dream World.

When he opened his eyes, two light cocoons blossomed like flowers, revealing two figures, a man and a woman.

The woman was naturally the Drought, her face like spring blossoms, vibrant and dripping with beauty; her figure exceptionally graceful, like feathers dancing in the sky.

The man was Hou Qing, clad in black war armor, his body robust, with handsome and heroic features, surrounded by an aura of hostility.

This pair, the man handsome, the woman exquisite, did not resemble the grotesque corpses they were said to be.

Yet Chu Xisheng discerned the true situation of these two.

Not that they were ugly, but their current presentation did not entirely match their reality.

Though they had reached the phase of extreme yin generating yang, they had paid a price for it.

Yet it’s better not to expose the hardships; these two purposefully used illusion techniques to conceal their true appearances, obviously taking pride in it, so exposing them was unnecessary.

Among them, Hou Qing was directly looking at Chu Xisheng: "We have invited Your Majesty here to inquire when Your Majesty plans to fulfill the promise?"

His tone was very polite.

Upon learning of Chu Xisheng’s promotion to First Grade, they knew this future Human Clan’s Saint Emperor was beyond their power to control.

"Impossible in the short term."

Chu Xisheng slightly shook his head, replied firmly without hesitation: "Leaving aside the fact that I have yet to annihilate Daning and unify the Divine Continent, even if I were to reach that step, I wouldn’t waste the National Fortune for you. The price must match the reward, and your contributions are not worth such an act from me."

Hou Qing and the Drought’s breath instantly changed.

Yet afterward, Chu Xisheng continued: "Using Dalv Dynasty’s dragon energy and national fortune to invert yin and yang is impossible, but you can find a substitute for the national fortune, and I will do my utmost to facilitate it. Besides, you have another path—"

Chu Xisheng pointed at Chu Ming beside him: "You’ve seen my subordinate. Although her condition isn’t much better than yours, it’s ultimately a path. Your conditions are better than hers; you can use this to complete extreme yang turning into yin and further perfect your Inner Heaven and Earth.

Although it’s not true resurrection, you’ll no longer appear as mere shadows of your former selves, but there is a price. You two will briefly be under my control."

As he spoke, he deliberately observed Hou Qing and the Drought’s emotions.

Unfortunately, these two were entities with over thirty thousand years of experience as old corpses, showing nothing beyond anger and disappointment.

The Drought furrowed her brows: "Does Your Majesty intend to break the promise? The True Spirit of the Primordial Emperor Xuan Huang and the first generation of the Heavenly Dog are jointly suppressed in Ji Yang’s Tomb; their yin-yang reversal impacts the restoration of the Primordial Emperor Xuan Huang."

Chu Xisheng laughed silently: "It’s precisely because I’m committed to keeping promises that I stand here now. As for the Primordial Emperor Xuan Huang, there are solutions beyond converting the Heavenly Dog."

One of the two avatars of the Primordial Emperor Xuan Huang’s ’True Sovereign Master’ is still in the hands of the Lord of Deceit.

Chu Xisheng reckoned the continued suppression of the Primordial Emperor Xuan Huang’s True Spirit carried a slim hope of recovery.

But if he were to emerge now, it would be certain death.

There might be a tremendous pitfall in this, and Chu Xisheng acknowledged his strength was not yet sufficient, unwilling to step into it.

Chu Xisheng then brought out a Great Sun Divine Core: "Even though I’m guiding you two, the slots are limited. I currently only possess one of these, which could help one of you complete the transformation; first come, first served.

By the way, Si Chen Star Lord has three more in possession, but so far, I’ve been unable to find the trace of his True Soul Embodiment."

He genuinely only had one left.

One of the three Great Sun Divine Cores had been used on Chu Ming.

As for the other, used on the earlier deity.

As the conversation ended, he finally sensed a slight wave of thought from the Drought and Hou Qing.

Nevertheless, the two quickly eased their emotions.

Hou Qing asked with a blank expression: "If national fortune cannot work, can Your Majesty substitute with the Primordial Qi of the Creation Mother Tree?"

"Impossible."

Chu Xisheng shook his head: "The Creation Mother Tree is the World Tree, its Primordial Qi determines the fate of the Antarctic, vital to both the Northern Giant Spirit and the Human Clan.

But if you decide to follow Chu Ming’s path, when you have enough merit under my command, and the circumstances of the Human Clan stabilize, I can invite the Yin Queen and the Emperor of Nanji Changsheng to reverse life and death for you."

Chu Ming remained expressionless.

Yet upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes.

If these two Corpse Ancestors could achieve a reversal of life and death, what about herself?

Chu Ming gripped her blade more tightly.

Hou Qing and the Drought, their eyes flickered between shadow and light, remaining silent for a long time.

Finally, Hou Qing sighed: "Can Your Majesty wait for half a day? We need time to weigh the pros and cons."

Chu Xisheng nodded slightly, unsurprised: "I can await your response outside the Returning Ruins. I have other matters to attend to now and cannot stay here long, farewell."

He paused, a faint smile in his voice; "Note that dragon energy and national fortune are not exclusive to the Dalv Dynasty; please consider carefully."

Chu Xisheng then decisively rode the Bathing Sun Divine Ship,

primarily intending to connect with the True Spirit of the Eight Heavenly Emperors today, and by the way, show these two Corpse Ancestors Chu Ming’s example, offering them a glimpse of future possibilities.

And as the Bathing Sun Divine Ship transformed into a golden tunneling light, exiting the sea mouth.

Number One Bai Lingxi pensively asked: "Does Your Majesty suspect they pose a problem?"

Number Two Bai Lingxi thought Chu Xisheng was not only wary? It was as if he planned to fell four scholars with one peach.

However, those four Corpse Ancestors were such beings, unless they found themselves cornered, they would never let Chu Xisheng have his way.

"I cannot judge their reliability and must therefore be quite wary. Besides—"

Chu Xisheng looked below again: "The True Soul Embodiment of Si Chen Star Lord is currently hidden within the Void Core inside the Returning Ruins."

Those around him trembled slightly upon hearing this.
