Dominator Emperor

The news that Hao Hai Immortal Emperor had once climbed the World Tree made everyone’s hearts race. The quickest to react immediately rushed forward, wanting to be the first to seize this great fortune. However, climbing the World Tree was not so simple. He slammed into the sphere of light and was instantly repelled.

"This is only a projection of the entrance," Fairy Mei Suyao said. "This portal is an entrance to a temporal shift, and an unparalleled power has gathered upon it. Without a Secret Treasure, it’s impossible to enter during the spatiotemporal transformation!"

"Open—" Someone refused to believe it. With a great shout, they brandished a Great Sage’s Soldier and immediately struck. BANG! The person let out a miserable scream and was sent flying.

"Open for me—" For a moment, many people were eager to try. One after another, they attacked, attempting to break open the sphere of light and rush in. But, needless to say, they were all sent flying.

In contrast, figures like Li Qiye, Mei Suyao, and Ji Kong Wudi were not in a hurry. They simply stood there, quietly admiring the World Tree within the sphere of light.

After many people tried and failed, their expressions soured. The talented disciples from the Great Teaching Territories immediately turned and left.

They weren’t giving up by turning and leaving; they were rushing back to retrieve their Ancestral Weapons. After seeing so many failures, they all understood that this sphere of light could not be opened with brute force. Just as Mei Suyao had said, a Secret Treasure was necessary to enter during the spatiotemporal transformation.

The World Tree—no one was willing to miss this. No matter which Great Teaching Territory it was, upon hearing of the World Tree, none would pass up such an opportunity. They would immediately go back to bring out their Clan Guardian Treasures, Treasure-Suppressing Soldiers, and Treasure-Suppressing Artifacts!

For many Great Teaching Territories, they would not easily bring out their Clan Guardian Treasure unless faced with a crisis. But with the appearance of the World Tree, they threw all caution to the wind.

Back then, Hao Hai Immortal Emperor had climbed the World Tree. Everyone knew what happened next: Sea-Washing Immortal Emperor later shouldered the Celestial Mandate, became an Immortal Emperor, and founded the Thousand Emperors Sect, a miracle for the ages!

Who wouldn’t want to become the next Hao Hai Immortal Emperor? And which sect’s elders wouldn’t hope for their own sect to become a legendary lineage like the Thousand Emperors Sect, a miracle for the ages?

After so many had failed, no one else tried. The vast majority turned and left, intending to retrieve their Ancestral Artifacts. Those without Ancestral Artifacts hurriedly sought others to discuss the possibility of joining forces...

"Girl, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. I’m taking the two of you to climb the World Tree, so now it’s your time to shine." Li Qiye stood there quietly, shooting a sidelong glance at Bing Yuxia.

The World Tree was an immense opportunity, one that no one would willingly share. Li Qiye himself had the ability to open this portal. He brought Bing Yuxia along not because she carried the Bingyu Palace’s Palace Guardian Treasure, but because he appreciated her. Every time he saw her, he couldn’t help but be reminded of the Bingyu Immortal Emperor of old.

The usually flippant Bing Yuxia became serious. She took a deep breath, slowly took out an object, and pressed it against the sphere of light, shouting deeply, "Open—"

The treasure Bing Yuxia pressed against the sphere was an ancient gateway. The gateway was small, only the size of a palm. As she pressed it against the sphere, Bing Yuxia’s Blood Qi flared like a rainbow, and her Nine Great Life Palaces appeared. As the Life Palaces opened, endless Dao Patterns cascaded down. The Dao Patterns were like a vast sea, instantly submerging the palm-sized gateway.

"The Heaven-Cutting Gate! The Bingyu Palace’s Palace Guardian Treasure," Mei Suyao, who was from the Long River Sect, exclaimed with emotion upon seeing the palm-sized gateway.

"The Heaven-Cutting Gate!" Divine Being Ji Kong Wudi’s eyes also grew profound as he stared at the palm-sized gateway.

Those who didn’t know of this item were confused. ’Shouldn’t the Bingyu Palace’s Palace Guardian Treasure be the Bingyu Immortal Emperor’s Lifebound True Artifact? Why is it this unheard-of "Heaven-Cutting Gate"?’

At the Bingyu Palace, the Palace Guardian Treasure was indeed not the Bingyu Immortal Emperor’s Lifebound True Artifact, but the Heaven-Cutting Gate. The origin of the Heaven-Cutting Gate was extremely mysterious. Even the Elders of the Bingyu Palace probably couldn’t explain the treasure’s history. The descendants of the Bingyu Palace only knew that the Bingyu Immortal Emperor had obtained this treasure from an outer domain. As for how it was obtained, later generations had no way of knowing.

BUZZ— At that moment, Bing Yuxia’s massive volume of Dao Patterns transformed into Laws that locked onto the gateway’s frame. It actually began to slowly pry open, and finally, an entrance the size of a normal doorway appeared on the sphere of light.

By now, Bing Yuxia’s face had turned pale. Opening such a portal had consumed a great deal of her Blood Qi. Even a Nine Palaces Supreme Saint like her could not easily bear such a loss.

"Let’s go—" With a flick of his sleeve, Li Qiye pulled Bing Yuxia and the others through. The moment they rushed in, the portal vanished instantly. Even if others wanted to follow, there was no way for them to do so.

The moment they stepped through the portal, Li Qiye and his group felt an endless, surging Life Force. Everyone felt as if they were submerged in an ocean of life, experiencing a sensation of rebirth.

At this point, Chi Xiaodie and the others realized they were standing before a sheer cliff. This cliff face blocked everything, and they could see nothing else before them.

But when they looked up, they understood. What blocked their path was not a cliff, but a tree trunk so massive it was immeasurable.

Everyone looked up, opening their Celestial Eyes. As far as their sight could reach, enormous mountain ranges crisscrossed the sky in the Celestial Vault. Each range was unimaginably thick, stretching for hundreds of millions of miles...

"Those are the branches—" Li Qiye said slowly while the others were still dazed. ’Standing beneath the World Tree at this moment feels like a dream. The World Tree had appeared in that era as well, but unfortunately, I was in a hurry and failed to climb it, missing a great opportunity.’

The World Tree. At this moment, Chi Xiaodie and the others understood why it was called the World Tree. There was no tree in existence larger than this one; it was so colossal as to be immeasurable!

This tree supported a world, or rather, it was large enough to support the Three Thousand Great Worlds. Its height was unimaginable; even if the Nine Heavens still existed, this tree would be taller. The tree was immense. Its trunk was immeasurable, and its branches were unimaginably large. A single twig could form its own world, and a single leaf could be a continent!

Even more shocking was that the leaves of this giant tree supported stars and nurtured all of creation. A single leaf could form a nation or a realm. Star Rivers coiled around the branches, and the sun and moon passed between the gaps in the leaves...

Seeing the World Tree for the first time, Bing Yuxia, Chi Xiaodie, Li Shuangyan, and the others were all so shaken that they were speechless for a long time.

"How long would it take to fly to the top?" Even Sikong Toutian, who had seen countless wonders, was lost in a daze as he muttered.

Li Qiye chuckled and said, "Why don’t you give it a try and find out?"

Sikong Toutian took a deep breath, gave a loud shout, and instantly transformed into a long rainbow, shooting straight into the sky. His speed was incredible.

"Incredible!" Seeing Sikong Toutian’s Body Technique, even Nan Huairun was moved to praise it.

However, as Sikong Toutian shot upward, a rumbling sound echoed around him. With his speed, he could normally cross thousands of miles in an instant, but now, his flight had slowed immeasurably. He felt an unbearable force pressing down from above, making it feel as if he were flying upward with ten million Divine Mountains on his shoulders.

Compared to the unreachable height of the World Tree, his flight was slower than a snail’s pace. Even if he flew with all his might, he had no idea how many years it would take to reach the first branch closest to the ground.

In the end, Sikong Toutian had no choice but to give up and descend. He couldn’t help but say in amazement, "I’m afraid I couldn’t reach it even if I flew for a thousand years!"

"Fly to the very top? Even a Great Sage in person couldn’t fly to the top." Li Qiye smiled and shook his head. "You need treasures to make the crossing! To rely on pure strength, only a Great Sage would have the qualifications to barely endure the suppressive force and fly up. As for how high they could get, that’s hard to say."

"So where are the fortunes?" Nan Huairun asked, practically drooling.

Li Qiye said, "Every branch and every leaf is a fortune. The size of the fortune is related to how high you fly. The higher you fly, the greater the potential fortune. Of course, that’s not always the case. To find better fortunes, you need a discerning eye and enough luck. If you have a discerning eye and pick the right spot, even if you don’t fly very high, you might find a direct path to a land of mystery and obtain a great fortune."

"Every branch and every leaf is a fortune," the dignified and graceful Ye Chuyun murmured, clearly moved.

Li Qiye smiled. "Every branch and every leaf is a world, a Secret Realm! There are fortunes everywhere. It all depends on whether you can find them!"

"Heh, heh, heh, I’ll definitely find the greatest fortune! Heh, what’s Hao Hai Immortal Emperor’s fortune compared to mine? My fortune will far surpass his!" Xiao Niqiu, who had been unusually quiet, now spoke with excitement and arrogance.

BUZZ. Just then, Mei Suyao entered. As for what treasure she used to get in, no one could tell.

A moment later, Divine Being Ji Kong Wudi also came in. Of course, as the successor of Takong Mountain, he was not short on treasures. He possessed a great many of them; one was bound to be able to open the portal.

When Mei Suyao and Ji Kong Wudi looked up at the Celestial Vault, they too were stunned by the scene before them.

"Up—" In the end, Ji Kong Wudi acted first. He summoned a Divine Object that instantly carried him up into the sky, and he disappeared among the continent-sized leaves in a flash.

"That kid has quite a few treasures. The moment he acts, it’s something extraordinary." Sikong Toutian couldn’t help but drool, already getting ideas about Ji Kong Wudi’s possessions.

"Brother Li, shall we travel together?" At this moment, the peerless Mei Suyao looked at Li Qiye with a smile. Like a fairy who subsisted on nothing but morning dew, her beauty was enough to make one’s Divine Soul turn upside down.
