Dominator Emperor

"Divine Being Ji Kong Wudi!" Hearing this name, no matter how arrogant or self-important, any genius would turn pale with shock.

Ji Kong Wudi—what an overbearing name. To dare call oneself "Invincible," how utterly peerless!

Ji Kong Wudi, the successor of Takong Mountain and the sixth-generation descendant of Immortal Emperor Ta Kong! With his Three Saints aptitude, it was hard to find anyone who could compare to him in the entire Human Emperor Realm.

Someone once said that if there was anyone in this world who could contend with Mei Suyao’s Immortal Bone, it would only be Ji Kong Wudi, the successor of Takong Mountain with his Three Saints aptitude!

Although Ji Kong Wudi had not made his debut long ago, all his opponents submitted wherever he went. Outsiders called him the Divine Being!

It was also said that Ji Kong Wudi was the only person who could contend with Mei Suyao, the only one who could stand shoulder to shoulder with her!

The Divine Being’s arrival was accompanied by celestial phenomena, causing all the students registering for enrollment to suck in a cold breath. Many geniuses were extraordinarily conceited, but upon seeing the Divine Being’s bearing, their expressions changed. No matter how arrogant, none would dare to compete with him.

Fairy Mei Suyao had arrived, and Divine Being Ji Kong Wudi had arrived too. For a time, this news sent the Celestial Dao Academy into an uproar, and it blew up across the entire East Hundred Cities.

"This... this is too insane! Does the worldly successor of the Long River Sect even need to enter the Celestial Dao Academy? At her current level, she could already establish her own sect and teach the Dao!" Hearing this news, many Emperors and Sect Leaders in the East Hundred Cities were dumbfounded.

Another Emperor murmured, "Divine Being Ji Kong Wudi doesn’t need to come to the Celestial Dao Academy either. Immortal Emperor Ta Kong only departed thirty thousand years ago. The old ministers he left behind are more than capable of cultivating Divine Being Ji Kong Wudi into an Immortal Emperor in this era! Why would he need to enter the Celestial Dao Academy?"

As the last Immortal Emperor of the Age of Emperors, Ta Kong Immortal Emperor was the closest to the current era. His influence in this age was far greater than that of other Immortal Emperors who had long since faded into the past.

Although Takong Mountain had only been established for a few tens of thousands of years, in the current era, not a single Ancient Country dared to underestimate it. As the newest Emperor Immortal Gate, the Emperor Essence it possessed was absolutely terrifying enough to make one tremble.

And yet, today, Fairy Mei Suyao had entered the Celestial Dao Academy, and Divine Being Ji Kong Wudi had also entered the Celestial Dao Academy. This was simply too shocking.

"A grand occasion like this seems to have only occurred in two eras. First, the era when Immortal Emperor Hao Hai enrolled in the Celestial Dao Academy; second, the era when Sub-Saint Wang Yuan was in charge of the Celestial Dao Academy. Both times they opened their gates, they recruited the most breathtakingly talented geniuses in the world. Could it be that the opening of the Celestial Dao Academy’s gates in this generation can compare to the previous two?" an older-generation Ancient Saint murmured.

The Celestial Dao Academy had suddenly recruited so many geniuses. The countless lineages and Jiang Countrys of the East Hundred Cities were stunned. This was simply unbelievable.

"When they opened their gates to accept disciples a thousand years ago, it was nothing like this grand occasion," someone else murmured. This time, with the Celestial Dao Academy opening its gates, geniuses had come from the Northern Ocean, the Southern Red Land, the Western Wilderness, and the Middle Grand Realm, unafraid of the hundreds of millions of miles.

"Something’s not right!" When Mei Suyao and Ji Kong Wudi enrolled in the Celestial Dao Academy, some Old Undyings from the Great Teachings and Strong Countries realized something. One said, "The Celestial Dao Academy opening its gates to recruit students is a major event, but it’s not enough to shake the heavens. And this news spread far too quickly, didn’t it? In just half a year, even behemoths from the ends of the earth like Wolong Cliff in the Northern Ocean, Cross Heaven Divine Mountain in the Western Wilderness, and the Qinglian Sect in the Southern Red Land have sent their successors to join the Celestial Dao Academy. Is this really just for the sake of studying at the academy?"

"Could it be that the Celestial Dao Academy’s portal is about to open again?" Some old geezers, who had sealed their blood and halted their lifespans, immediately woke up from within their Time Blood Stones after hearing the reports from their descendants, sucking in a cold breath as they spoke.

With the Celestial Dao Academy opening its gates wide to recruit students this time, perhaps only behemoths like the Long River Sect and the Yao Guang Ancient Country knew a thing or two about the real inside story at first. But very quickly, many Old Undyings from the Great Teachings and Strong Countries began to realize that something was amiss.

At this moment, these Old Undyings, who had been buried for countless eras, all became aware of some inside information. They all unanimously thought of one thing—the legendary portal of the Celestial Dao Academy!

In a very ancient era, there was a legend about the Celestial Dao Academy. It was said that the academy was built upon the Heaven and Earth Vein of the Void Gate. The Void Gate was one of the Nine Great Heavenly Treasures. For eons, people had only heard its name but never seen it. Therefore, everyone had always believed it to be nothing more than a legend. They thought that things like the Nine Great Heavenly Treasures and the Nine Great Celestial Books didn’t exist and were just fabrications of their predecessors, that such things were not real at all.

Despite this, the legends about the Celestial Dao Academy’s portal never ceased. In a very ancient era, it was rumored that the Celestial Dao Academy could open a portal leading to the Void Gate. However, many other ancient legends claimed that the so-called portal of the Celestial Dao Academy had no connection to the Void Gate at all. They said it was a portal to a Divine Realm, a portal to a Divine Treasure. It was a gateway left behind from the legendary Mythical Era, one that could lead to the ancient lost lands of that time!

’Is the Celestial Dao Academy really going to open the Void Gate in this generation?’ Upon guessing this possibility, countless reclusive grand figures and buried Old Undyings could no longer sit still. Their hearts pounded with excitement.

"There’s no such thing as a Void Gate in this world!" one Old Undying, who had lived for countless eras and been buried time and again, murmured after being disturbed. "For eons, how many Elder Sages have explored the Celestial Dao Academy’s portal? Immortal Emperor Feiyang, Immortal Emperor Hao Hai, the Sub-Saint—generation after generation of peerless, invincible figures have explored this portal. It is not the so-called Void Gate at all!"

Regardless of whether the Celestial Dao Academy’s portal was related to the Void Gate, at this moment, many reclusive experts and dust-sealed Old Undyings in the East Hundred Cities could no longer remain calm. They all instantly began paying close attention to this matter.

To these experts and Old Undyings, it didn’t even matter if the Celestial Dao Academy’s portal had nothing to do with the Void Gate, because this portal held immense opportunities! Figures like Immortal Emperor Feiyang, Immortal Emperor Hao Hai, and Wang Yuan—these peerless and invincible beings had all studied at the Celestial Dao Academy in their youth and obtained significant fortunes from this very portal. Many in later generations believed that the ability of Immortal Emperor Feiyang and Immortal Emperor Hao Hai to carry the Celestial Mandate and command the world, and Wang Yuan’s ability to become a peerless, invincible Sub-Saint, were all deeply related to the opportunities they received from this portal.

A portal leading to a Divine Treasure, to a peerless opportunity—how could the Old Undyings who had guessed this secret not have their hearts pound with excitement?

"Not bad, a River Venerable Fish King. Amazing. A creature that has gained spirituality. It’s a rare sight even within the Celestial Dao Academy’s territory." One day, as Chi Xiaodie was dissecting a Fish King that Li Qiye had captured, Elder Daoist Peng of the Longevity Academy suddenly popped up, drooling as he spoke.

During this period, Li Qiye had captured far too many ferocious beasts, including Longevity Celestial Beasts and Fierce Bird Insect Kings. Under this period of training, Chi Xiaodie’s progress in the Art of Commanding Soldiers was remarkable. It could be said that she had been completely focused, fully immersed in her cultivation. Now, wielding the Golden Divine Saber, she was as masterful as a butcher carving an ox, moving with effortless grace. In the blink of an eye, a River Venerable Fish King was dismembered, with each cut being nothing short of perfect.

"Heh, let me cook a full fish banquet for you all." Elder Daoist Peng was practically drooling. He immediately gathered the ingredients on the spot and actually started preparing a fish banquet right there in the Ancestral God Temple.

"Smells so good, so good!" After Elder Daoist Peng finished preparing the full fish banquet, Xiao Niqiu appeared out of nowhere, also drooling, and jumped right onto the table.

"Heh, Sire, come and try this old Daoist’s cooking," Elder Daoist Peng said with a grin after Li Qiye came out.

Elder Daoist Peng said this, but he was already fighting over the food with Xiao Niqiu. The two of them devoured the food like a whirlwind sweeping away clouds, looking as if they wanted to swallow the entire banquet whole.

Elder Daoist Peng was a foodie, and his cooking skills were top-notch. Chi Xiaodie didn’t hold back either and joined the great food snatching war. Only Li Qiye sampled a little. ’For eons, what kind of immortal banquets and divine delicacies have I not tasted? I’ve attended far too many banquets hosted by Immortal Emperors.’

"The Celestial Dao Academy’s portal will definitely appear in this era," Elder Daoist Peng said to Li Qiye after they had eaten and drunk their fill.

Xiao Niqiu patted its stomach, looking as if it hadn’t had enough. It shook its head and said, "Wrong, you smelly Daoist. I, your great grandpa, can guarantee that your portal will open in half a year at the soonest, or one to two years at the latest. Just you watch."

In the past few days, Xiao Niqiu had followed Li Qiye all over the Celestial Dao Academy’s territory, exploring its Heaven and Earth Vein. It understood the changes within it better than anyone.

"The fluctuations in your Heaven and Earth Vein are too intense. I dare say, there’s definitely something wrong," Xiao Niqiu said with the air of an expert.

Li Qiye remained as tranquil as a still well, calm and composed. One of the reasons he had come here this time was for the Celestial Dao Academy’s portal. ’I want to explore the Void Gate once more!’

Li Qiye glanced at Elder Daoist Peng and said, "The Celestial Dao Academy has opened its gates to recruit students again?" He had been traveling across the Celestial Dao Academy’s lands these past few days and had heard the news long ago.

"Yes, we had no choice. The truth is, you can’t wrap fire in paper. The Celestial Dao Academy’s portal has opened several times before. If it opens again in this era, those Old Undyings will surely be eyeing it like hungry tigers. We figured we might as well just let their juniors in," Elder Daoist Peng said with a grin.

Li Qiye didn’t even bat an eyelid. "The Celestial Dao Academy has never been one to fear trouble," he said.

"That may be so, but if my junior brothers and those other old men were to climb out of their coffins, they could indeed suppress all those demons and monsters," Elder Daoist Peng said with a grin. "Let those few handle such matters."

"Then what is your Celestial Dao Academy afraid of?" Only then did Li Qiye raise his head and look Elder Daoist Peng straight in the eye.

"Well—" Elder Daoist Peng’s heart skipped a beat; he knew he couldn’t hide it from Li Qiye. He dropped his flippant demeanor, took a deep breath, and said with solemn gravity, "It has to do with our Celestial Dao Academy’s Guardian Divine Beast."

"Mm," Li Qiye nodded. "Your Celestial Dao Academy’s Guardian Divine Beast has lived long enough. If not for this Heaven and Earth Vein, it would have turned to dust long ago. Is it finally going to find its final rest in this era?"
