Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates
Chapter 181 - 179: Great Emperor Domain

Chapter 181: Chapter 179: Great Emperor Domain

Back then, Liu Yiyi appeared with a Vitality Replenishing Pill, trampling recklessly on his self-esteem. But now, the other party no longer had the qualifications or strength to do so.

Xiao Ye now stood at the peak of the young generation in Black Dragon Country, achieving such stature that Liu Yiyi could only look up to him!

"Brother Wang Lin, it’s actually a Purple Cloud Pill, grab it quickly!" Third Prince Long Yu widened his eyes, extremely excited.

"I’ve seen the record of Purple Cloud Pill in the Royal Family’s Book Collection Pavilion. This elixir can help martial artists at the Postnatal Realm Ninth Layer quickly perfect their Innate True Qi; even our Royal Family does not possess such an elixir. You are really lucky!"

"If you take it, maybe before the Heavenly Pride Battle arrives, your Innate True Qi could be perfected, and becoming one of the Five Young Supreme wouldn’t be a problem!" Long Yu said excitedly.

Hearing the effects of the pill, the Young Talents nearby stared fervently at the treasure box, envious of Xiao Ye.

Many among them had not perfected their Innate True Qi, so the Purple Cloud Pill was fatally tempting for them.

A smile full of intent appeared in Liu Yiyi’s beautiful eyes; she believed that Xiao Ye would definitely not refuse the Purple Cloud Pill.

Xiao Ye, however, silently looked at Liu Yiyi but did not take the treasure box.

"The position among the Five Young Supreme definitely belongs to me; I disdain to take such an elixir!" Xiao Ye coldly stated, then turned and sat down.

Now, his Primordial Energy split into two halves, he practiced at the speed comparable to a genius with Twenty Acupoints; where would he need a Purple Cloud Pill?

Hiss!

The Young Talents around took a sharp intake of breath, their faces full of shock.

Refusing even the Purple Cloud Pill, what extent of audacity did Xiao Ye reach?

Liu Yiyi’s smile solidified, her delicate body tensed in the center of the arena, feeling as if she was pricked by needles from the surrounding gazes.

"This disdain to use... These words sound so familiar." Liu Yiyi bitterly put away the treasure box, her eyes lingering on Xiao Ye’s departing figure.

That figure bore an arrogance strikingly similar to the unbending young man from back then.

"Sigh." Liu Yiyi walked back.

"To be turned down like that," Zhao Qian clenched his fists in anger, yet felt powerless.

Inevitably, someone like Wang Lin, a Young Talent, possessed terrifying power and was also wooed by the Royal Family; there was absolutely nothing Zhao Qian could do.

"Hmph, when I, Zhao Qian, ascend to Mystic Martial, I must make these arrogant guys kneel before me!" A cold gleam flickered in Zhao Qian’s eyes.

Xiao Ye’s actions pushed the atmosphere of this Young Talents banquet to the peak.

Numerous Young Talents came to greet him, lowering their status, eager to make his acquaintance.

At this moment, all eyes converged on Xiao Ye, truly the center of attention.

"Brother Wang Lin, it seems you and Chongyang Sect have quite a deep grudge," Long Yu remarked meaningfully.

"Long Yu, it seems your identity as the Third Prince isn’t too effective either. Even the top three Young Talents on the Hidden Dragon List didn’t show up," Xiao Ye said, shifting the topic with a smile.

Long Yu’s behavior made Xiao Ye treat him as a friend.

Long Yu gave a bitter smile: "Don’t tease me, those three are unparalleled monsters, destined to reach Mystic Martial, it’s normal for them not to give me face."

Once reaching Mystic Martial, with overwhelming martial power, one can establish a school and dominate a territory in Black Dragon Country; even the Royal Family would need to treat them with courtesy, not giving face to Long Yu was normal.

"How strong are those three? Have they reached the First-class Innate Limit?" Xiao Ye asked seriously, that being his primary concern.

The more he knew about his opponents, the greater his chances of becoming one of the Five Young Supreme.

"Reaching the strength of First-class Innate Limit is not so easy."

Xiao Ye nodded at those words.

According to his speculation, Chongyang Sect’s Great Elder, should be at the First-class Innate Limit, very close to the Mystic Martial Realm.

Such characters were very rare in all powers, having even one was considered good.

Knowing that Xiao Ye was inquiring about the strength of Young Talents, Long Yu naturally would not refuse.

"The third-ranked Young Talent has, like you, comprehended seventy percent of Martial Arts True Intent, has perfected Innate True Qi and cultivated Fifth Grade Combat Techniques."

"The second-ranked Young Talent has comprehended seventy-five percent of Martial Arts True Intent, reportedly he is the personal son of the Sun and Moon Sect Leader; previously he traveled externally and returned to Black Dragon Country a year ago," Long Yu revealed.

"What!" Xiao Ye’s body shook, his entire body’s hair stood on end.

"Son of the Sun and Moon Sect? Wasn’t He Wufa killed by me?" Xiao Ye was a bit confused.

"Right, the one Long Yu mentioned, must be another son of the Sun and Moon Sect Leader," Xiao Ye gave a bitter smile.

Confused by his concerns, he hadn’t even fully listened to Long Yu’s words before starting to guess wrongly.

It seems that in the Heavenly Pride Battle, he couldn’t avoid a confrontation with him.

"Brother Wang Lin, are you alright?" Long Yu asked, puzzled.

"I’m fine." Xiao Ye shook his head, shifting the topic, "Who is the first one?"

Mentioning the top-ranked Young Talent, Long Yu’s expression turned very unnatural, and he said: "Brother Wang Lin, I advise you to not take him as your opponent."

"Why is that?" Xiao Ye asked curiously.

"Because he is too strong. Even if the top ten Young Talents on the Hidden Dragon List join forces, they wouldn’t be his match. That person has already become the Young Supreme, able to look down on everyone on the Hidden Dragon List."

Xiao Ye was stunned. The top ten Young Talents on the Hidden Dragon List joining forces still weren’t his match? That’s too exaggerated!

"Don’t think it’s exaggerated. This person is not far from reaching the Xuanwu Realm," said Long Yu. "So, if you encounter him during the Heavenly Pride Battle, you better concede proactively."

Xiao Ye was again at a loss for words.

What exactly is a Young Talent?

Only martial artists under the age of thirty who also possess strong cultivation are called Young Talents!

Under thirty and almost approaching the Xuanwu Realm, how defying of Heaven was this?

"Has his strength reached the Superior Innate Limit?" Xiao Ye inquired.

Feeling his blood boil, Xiao Ye thought perhaps this person could be an opponent worthy of his full effort.

"Superior Innate Limit?" Long Yu looked at him with a weird expression.

"Brother Wang Lin, you’re too uninformed. The Superior Innate Limit is the domain of the Great Emperor. Throughout history, only Great Emperors at the Innate Realm were capable of standing at that level, while other martial artists could only reach at most the First-class Innate Limit," Long Yu explained.

"The Great Emperor’s Domain!" A glint flashed in Xiao Ye’s eyes.

Compared to Long Yu, he felt like a country bumpkin. Even the fact that the Innate Limit was divided into four levels was something he had only learned about by chance.

"It’s said that once Innate Martial Artists stand within the Great Emperor’s Domain, their strength can increase tenfold, comparable to Half-step Xuanwu Realm, and even induce anomalies in Heaven and Earth. I really hope to witness it with my own eyes," Long Yu said wistfully.

"I wonder if my Innate True Qi becomes perfect, could I stand within the Great Emperor’s Domain," Xiao Ye thought to himself. Hearing Long Yu’s explanation, he began to feel unsure.

The Human Race Four Emperors, each was a peerless genius, unrivaled throughout history, not something later generations could imitate.

"Since the Supreme Empress left behind the Four Tripod Heavenly Technique, once my Qi Refinement and Body Refinement reach the Peak Level, my strength will definitely not be comparable to a regular Innate Martial Artist. Perhaps I really could stand within the Great Emperor’s Domain."

Xiao Ye became very hopeful about his future.

This banquet lasted until late at night, with many Young Talents taking leave one after another.

At this gathering, Long Yu and many Young Talents drew closer to each other, achieving his purpose.

As for Zhao Qian and Liu Yiyi of the Chongyang Sect, because of Xiao Ye, Long Yu was very cold towards them, leaving them disappointed and departing.

Under Long Yu’s enthusiastic retention, Xiao Ye stayed at his residence, avoiding the need to find an inn.

"With 27 days left until the Heavenly Pride Battle, let’s see if I can perfect my Innate True Qi." In a room, Xiao Ye took out a Primordial Stone and began cultivating.

Xiao Ye was very aware that the stronger his strength, the more treasures he could grab at the Emperor’s Hard Cultivation Land.

Comparable to having the Emperor’s Stature and Twenty Acupoints, the cultivation speed of a genius is terrifyingly fast.

The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within a Primordial Stone was absorbed in the blink of an eye.

After continuously absorbing the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from twenty Primordial Stones, Xiao Ye’s Innate True Qi still showed no signs of completion. Seemingly, a mysterious force was preventing Xiao Ye’s breakthrough.

"It’s too strange; according to my cultivation speed, my Innate True Qi should have been perfect," Xiao Ye puzzledly muttered to himself.

After pondering for a long time, a sudden thought struck him like lightning: "Could it be because of the Great Emperor’s Domain?"

According to his estimate, once his Innate True Qi is complete, he would possess the power of the Superior Innate Limit and stand within the Great Emperor’s Domain.

However, ordinary Innate Martial Artists are not eligible to enter this Domain, hence his cultivation was being suppressed by Heaven and Earth.

This was a causality relationship, with a prior cause leading to the subsequent effect.

"Damn it, heaven, are you playing with me?" Xiao Ye wanted to cry but had no tears. If this really was the reason, then wouldn’t his Innate True Qi never be completed in this lifetime?

How would he then challenge the Xuanwu Realm? Completing the Innate True Qi is a necessary condition for that challenge.

"Damn it, I don’t believe it!" Xiao Ye impulsively took out all his Primordial Stones and began absorbing them one by one.

Every attempt to perfect his Innate True Qi was thwarted by a mysterious force, keeping Xiao Ye locked in the Late Stage of the Innate Realm Ninth Layer.

The number of Primordial Stones in his hands continued to decrease, finally, he even asked Long Yu for more Primordial Stones to continue his impact towards perfecting his Innate True Qi.

While Xiao Ye was secluded and striving towards the Innate Limit, the Imperial City had already become turbulent, each Young Talent radiating intense light, fully preparing for the Heavenly Pride Battle.

The strength Xiao Ye displayed at the Young Talent gathering quickly spread throughout the entire Imperial City.

Although the Innate True Qi was not yet complete, possessing the strength of a Second-class Innate Limit showcased terrifying potential; many believed that once Xiao Ye’s Innate True Qi was perfected, he would definitely be ranked among the top three on the Hidden Dragon List.

Time flew by, and only two days remained until the Heavenly Pride Battle.

On this day, from the grand and majestic Imperial Palace, a golden and blazing imperial edict emerged, as radiant as the sun, with a majestic voice spreading throughout the entire Imperial City.
