Chapter 446: Chapter 442: Each Belonging to Their Own Place

"Is the Taiyi Pill related to a great opportunity?" Xiao Ye’s eyes flickered with curiosity as he looked at the elder from Taiyi Sacred Palace.

Actually, Xiao Ye had felt it himself.

Since he took the Taiyi Pill, there had been significant changes in his body, not only had his Martial Arts foundation become more profound, but the Blood Qi in his body became incredibly full and rich. With just a slight motion of his consciousness, he felt his Blood Qi surge like a relentless river, as if he was at the peak of his life.

He even had the illusion that he was the strongest Young Talent in the world.

Could all this really be related to the Taiyi Pill he consumed?

The elder from Taiyi Sacred Palace, seeing Xiao Ye’s curiosity piqued, couldn’t help but smile proudly and said: "You might not know this, but our Taiyi Sacred Palace has a very ancient heritage on the True Spirit Continent, already one of the top forces during the era of the Unrivaled Emperor."

Xiao Ye was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. So, had Taiyi Sacred Palace been passed down for over ten thousand years? That was rather exaggerated.

Moreover, for Taiyi Sacred Palace to have stood for so many years, they must possess considerable heritage. It seems that what the elder mentioned is credible.

Immediately, Xiao Ye’s interest was greatly piqued, and he continued to listen.

"There are too many strong practitioners that emerged from our Taiyi Sacred Palace, I won’t list them all, but what captivates people the most, is that the Undefeated Emperor hailed from our ranks," the elder from Taiyi Sacred Palace said with a secretive smile, a look of pride on his face.

"What! The Undefeated Emperor, the one with the most terrifying talent among the Four Emperors, was actually from Taiyi Sacred Palace?"

This statement struck Xiao Ye like a thunderbolt, rendering him speechless and astounded. The news was extremely shocking.

Just with this fact, the status of Taiyi Sacred Palace in the True Spirit Continent was absolutely terrifying, and definitely revered by countless people.

The elder from Taiyi Sacred Palace, very satisfied with Xiao Ye’s reaction, continued: "After the Undefeated Emperor ascended the throne, although he established the Invincible Emperor Domain, he still left many treasures in our Taiyi Sacred Palace."

"To put it immodestly, our Taiyi Sacred Palace might be considered the strongest force under the Four Great Emperor Domains."

"Although the Four Great Emperor Domains have more emperor treasures, only the core figures in these domains have the access and enjoyment of them. If you were to join them, you definitely won’t have that opportunity."

"But if you join our Taiyi Sacred Palace, it’s different," the elder from Taiyi Sacred Palace said, grinning.

Xiao Ye’s eyes flickered; he was moved.

What the other party said made sense, perhaps joining the Taiyi Sacred Palace was his best choice at the moment.

"Senior, according to what you said before, is it only after consuming the Taiyi Pill that one qualifies to enjoy the treasures left by the emperor?" Xiao Ye suddenly asked curiously.

The elder from Taiyi Sacred Palace nodded and said: "Correct. Although the Great Emperor is no longer here, the treasures he left are extremely terrifying, and even ordinary Emperor Martial Realm practitioners can’t get close."

"The Taiyi Pill from our Taiyi Sacred Palace was brewed according to the Elixir Recipe left by the Undefeated Emperor. It contains a trace of Emperor’s Energy, allowing the Heaven’s Pride who take this pill to enjoy the emperor’s treasures."

"I see." Xiao Ye’s mind cleared, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Then I will join the Taiyi Sacred Palace."

For him, with the Four Emperor Skills in his possession, he didn’t lack Cultivation Techniques anymore, as for Combat Techniques, he believed Taiyi Sacred Palace had many, so it was unnecessary to be stubborn about joining the Four Great Emperor Domains.

Moreover, carrying the Time Tower, he believed that as long as he had sufficient resources, he surely wouldn’t lose to the geniuses of the Four Great Emperor Domains.

"Haha, very good, I am called Tian Jiu, an Elder of the Tianyi Sacred Palace, welcome to join the Taiyi Sacred Palace," the elder laughed heartily, very pleased.

He highly valued the potential and talent displayed by Xiao Ye, believing that with the nurture from Taiyi Sacred Palace, Xiao Ye could definitely grow into a figure that could contend with the talents of the Four Great Emperor Domains.

"Greetings to Elder Tian Jiu. However, there’s something I need to inform you in advance," Xiao Ye said with some difficulty.

"Oh? If there’s something that’s difficult for you to speak of, it mustn’t be a trivial matter, let’s hear it," Tian Jiu said with a smiling stroke of his beard.

Thereupon, Xiao Ye mentioned that he killed the South Emperor’s Prince in the Talent Cemetery, which might incite the South Emperor’s fury.

"I thought it was something serious, just a South Emperor?"

"Now that you are a Disciple of our Taiyi Sacred Palace, if he dares to move against you or your family, that’s courting death. Although he is also an Emperor Martial Realm powerhouse, he is the weakest among them. If needed, I can easily eliminate him with a move," Tian Jiu said indifferently.

Xiao Ye gave a wry smile.

You think the South Emperor is weak, but for me now, he’s overwhelmingly strong.

"Elder Tian Jiu, let’s not bother you to take action against the South Emperor. As long as he doesn’t threaten me, that’s enough," Xiao Ye stated with neither servility nor overbearance.

Xiao Ye has never been a fan of using others to eliminate enemies. Just having the identity of a disciple from Taiyi Sacred Palace to make the adversary too fearful to act was enough.

"You really have a personality, kiddo. Well, whatever you want. Come with me now; it’s time to reject the Four Emperors’ Envoys," said Elder Tian Jiu, giving Xiao Ye a deep look.

Xiao Ye nodded and followed Tian Jiu out.

When the Four Emperor’s Envoys learned that Xiao Ye had ultimately chosen the Taiyi Sacred Palace, their faces darkened immediately.

They came here after seeing Xiao Ye’s performance and believed he had met the minimum criteria to enter the Emperor Domain, which is why they invited him face to face.

Confident in the prestige of the Four Great Emperor Domains, they believed he would never refuse.

Yet, unexpectedly, Xiao Ye outright rejected their offer and chose the Taiyi Sacred Palace instead, virtually slapping their faces in public.

What was more crucial was that if it had been any other power, they might have vented their anger, but it happened to be the Taiyi Sacred Palace, the maternal sect of the Undefeated Emperor, intricately linked with the Invincible Emperor Domain, not even they could easily provoke a conflict.

"Hmph!"

Among the Four Great Emperor Domains, three of the Emperor’s Envoys swept their sleeves and left. Only the envoy from the Invincible Emperor Domain gave Elder Tian Jiu a profound look before departing with him.

With the departure of the Four Emperor’s Envoys, the Four Great State Talents, who were in a stupor, finally came to their senses, looking at Xiao Ye as though they were seeing an idiot.

It seemed even they hadn’t considered the existence of someone who would reject an invitation from the Four Great Emperor Domains; it was too unconventional.

The envoys of the other nine powers of the Central State, seemingly having anticipated this scene, began picking their preferred geniuses among the Four Great State Talents.

Over ten thousand of the Four Great State Talents participated in the Dynasty Battle, but now only a little more than two hundred remained. Many had fallen, showing just how brutal the Dynasty Battle was.

Xiao Ye felt sentimental, watching the Nine Major Forces’ envoys in Central State picking their disciples and even witnessed scenes of them glaring at each other over competing for a talent.

Tian Jiu of the Taiyi Sacred Palace, having chosen Xiao Ye, seemed to lose interest in others. He stood with Xiao Ye, occasionally introducing him to various aspects of the Taiyi Sacred Palace.

Half an hour later, more than two hundred Young Talents had successfully joined forces in Central State, shouting excitedly; their long efforts and persistence finally paying off.

As for Nangong Xingyu, who suddenly reappeared with Prince Donghuang and left, they only returned after a stick of incense’s time, by which the Prince Donghuang had successfully joined the Unrivaled Emperor Domain, pulling Xiao Ye aside and excitedly chatting nonstop.

Xiao Ye shook his head speechlessly.

Just as Tian Jiu had said, there were simply too many geniuses and monsters in the Four Great Emperor Domains, and not having a background might not be a good thing.

However, everyone has their own path to choose, and since Prince Donghuang had made his choice, all Xiao Ye could do was give him his blessings.

"Xiao Ye, you said you wanted to go back to the Endless Sea. I’ll give you two years. Two years from now, I will personally go to East State to welcome you to the Taiyi Sacred Palace. I hope by then, you will have broken through to the King Martial Realm," Elder Tian Jiu’s gaze fell on Xiao Ye as he spoke.

In fact, it was the first time he had seen such a willful disciple.

Others who joined the Central State Powers couldn’t wait to set off immediately, but Xiao Ye was even asking for leave.

"Thank you, Elder Tian Jiu," Xiao Ye said joyfully upon hearing this.

He had planned to return to Yulan Domain after participating in the Dynasty Battle, though he was desperate to go to Central State and see Bing Ya.

But he knew that the difficulties he and Bing Ya would face together were far from trivial and couldn’t be resolved in a hurry, so there was no need to rush.

The curtain had finally fallen on the Dynasty Battle, and every talent who had made it to the end successfully earned their eligibility for Central State.

Xiao Ye, the Taiyi Sacred Palace.

Prince Donghuang, the Unrivaled Emperor Domain.

East Emperor’s Princess, the Taixu Sect.

...

When the Four Great Imperial Martial Artists urgently waiting outside the Talent Cemetery received the news, they were overjoyed, especially the East Emperor, as his own son had joined the Unrivaled Emperor Domain, and he was naturally very pleased.

The most desolate figure in the arena was undoubtedly South Emperor. The Young Talents under his command had perished, and even the South Emperor’s Prince had been killed by Xiao Ye.

Yet, seemingly warned by Tian Jiu, he didn’t utter a word, gave Xiao Ye a deep look, and then led his people away from the Ancient Battlefield.

The talents of the Four Great States began their return journey. Xiao Ye stood on the Rainbow Bridge, face flushed with excitement. Once he left the Ancient Battlefield and made preparations, he would set off to return to Yulan Domain.

It had been almost nine years since he left Yulan Domain to come to the True Spirit Continent. Now, having achieved some success, he wondered how the Ye Alliance had developed, especially Little Xiao Fan, who should be nine years old by now.

"Dad, Mom, your child is coming home soon!" Xiao Ye clenched his fists.
