Chapter 462 - 462 471 Three Things

462: Chapter 471: Three Things 462: Chapter 471: Three Things Upon entering Chaotian Palace, Ye Xuan parted ways with Qing Song Daoist and secluded himself in a pavilion and tower complex.

This behavior only made Qing Song Daoist feel increasingly strange about Ye Xuan, yet he had no choice but to seek other friends.

Standing in the pavilion, Ye Xuan watched the receding figure of Qing Song Daoist, a hint of murderous intent flickering in his eyes.

Although he had transformed into Qing Huo, a less conspicuous Immortal in the Heavenly Court,

Qing Huo, widely befriended among the Immortals, often attracted groups of low-level Immortals.

Ye Xuan feared that not only Qing Song Daoist but also other low-level Immortals would visit before the Peach Festival began, causing him slight annoyance.

If not for his desire to avoid drawing attention, Ye Xuan would have killed Qing Song Daoist long ago to enjoy some peace.

Days and nights passed, and stars shifted across the sky.

When the Taiyin Star rose, the myriad stars twinkled intensely in the vast sky, and the moonlight that poured down made the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven exceptionally magnificent.

Occasionally, Immortals would gather in Chaotian Palace to drink merrily with friends, appreciating the grand beauty of the Heavenly Court.

Heaven and Earth are limitless, All Laws Traceless.

Ye Xuan stepped out and vanished quietly within Chaotian Palace, heading towards the sanctuary of Shen Gongbao.

…

Black Hill Palace!

Seated in the void, Shen Gongbao’s Immortal Extinguishing Sword lay across his knees.

Three thousand years had passed with little change in him, yet his Cultivation had significantly improved.

He remained in the Daluo Second Layer Heaven Realm, but judging by his aura, it was likely that he would ascend to the Daluo Third Layer Heaven within a thousand years.

As time passed, the absence of any news from Ye Xuan greatly troubled Shen Gongbao, leaving him clueless about what had happened to Ye Xuan and why he hadn’t manifested in the world yet.

Not only Shen Gongbao but also the Demon Kings from the Lower Realm, who had once followed Ye Xuan, covertly communicated with Shen Gongbao, incessantly inquiring about news of Ye Xuan.

However, how could Shen Gongbao know Ye Xuan’s whereabouts?

With thoughts toward the Peach Festival happening in three years, Shen Gongbao felt tempted.

For it was the rule in every such event that every Daluo Golden Immortal could partake of a nine-thousand-year-old peach.

Suddenly!

Time and space distorted, ripples emerged, and a mysterious fluctuation blossomed in the void.

Before Shen Gongbao could react, Ye Xuan silently appeared beside him, causing Shen Gongbao’s expression to drastically change.

The Immortal Extinguishing Sword instantly radiated a fierce aura as he looked up at Ye Xuan.

“Emperor…

Emperor?”

Upon seeing Ye Xuan’s face, Shen Gongbao stuttered, seemingly in disbelief.

But within just a few breaths, he regained his composure, his expression becoming extremely excited.

“It’s been three thousand years, Daoist friend.

I trust you’ve been well,” Ye Xuan said with a slight smile.

“Greetings, Emperor.”

Shen Gongbao quickly bowed deeply to Ye Xuan and then scrutinized him, his eyes filled with astonishment.

“Emperor…

Emperor…

Have you…

Have you ascended to Daluo?”

Shen Gongbao’s moan trembled because after sensing the aura emanating from Ye Xuan, he felt an extremely bizarre and oppressive sensation.

He clearly had the cultivation of Daluo Second Layer Heaven, yet he couldn’t see through Ye Xuan’s realm at this moment, which he found hard to believe.

What shocked him most was that the Ye Xuan in front of him exerted a subtle, yet undeniable pressure, which prompted Shen Gongbao to voice his inner doubts.

Looking at Shen Gongbao’s puzzled and slightly excited eyes, Ye Xuan gently nodded, causing Shen Gongbao’s fists to clench tightly and his face to begin turning red.

“Having stepped into Daluo, Emperor has finally stepped into Daluo, and my Jie Sect will finally begin to flourish,” Shen Gongbao murmured tremblingly, his body quivering slightly.

It was no wonder Shen Gongbao was so excited, for since the Sealing God Tribulation in ancient times, when the Chan Sect flourished and the Jie Sect declined, he had endured an endless time until the Heavenly Sect Master bestowed the Immortal Extinguishing Sword upon him to protect Ye Xuan’s path, rekindling his fighting spirit.

Thousands of years had passed, and Shen Gongbao had witnessed Ye Xuan climbing the pinnacle step by step, further believing that Ye Xuan was the one who could lead the Jie Sect to a great revival.

Three thousand years later, today, Ye Xuan had reappeared and truly stepped into the Daluo Realm, finally able to lead the Jie Sect to rise within the Three Realms.

Excitement and agitation were insufficient to describe Shen Gongbao’s feelings at this moment; it took him several dozen moments to calm his emotions.

“Emperor, now that you have stepped into Daluo, just a call to arms from you is enough for those ancient Great Immortals of my Jie Sect who are hidden from the world to flock to you.

My Jie Sect is also willing to follow you to rebel against the Heavenly Court and to establish a Daoist lineage in the Earth Immortal Realm.

In under one hundred thousand years, even seizing the position of Heavenly Emperor would be an easy task.”

Shen Gongbao was agitated, as he was aware of Ye Xuan’s feud with the Jade Emperor and was aware of Ye Xuan’s ambition, which prompted him to make this suggestion.

“One hundred thousand years?”

Ye Xuan muttered to himself, a strange smile curling the corner of his lips before he shook his head at Shen Gongbao, “I cannot wait that long.

Today, returning to the Heavenly Court is to slaughter that Jade Emperor and henceforth take the highest place of honor.”

“Huh?”

“Emperor…

Emperor…

what…

what did you say?”

Shen Gongbao looked at Ye Xuan with an extremely horrified expression, seemingly unable to believe his own ears.

He could never have imagined that Ye Xuan, who had just stepped into Daluo, would already think about killing the Jade Emperor and seizing the position of Heavenly Emperor; this was simply unimaginable.

“Emperor, please do not be impulsive.

The Peach Banquet is about to begin, not only will the Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect be present but also the Western Buddha Bodhisattvas will be there, who see you as a thorn in their eyes.

We should still make a long-term plan.”

Shen Gongbao advised earnestly, deeply afraid that Ye Xuan might act impulsively.

Although it was joyous that Ye Xuan had stepped into Daluo, the Peach Banquet included many powerful figures from the Three Realms.

Moreover, the Jade Emperor was a terrifying figure at the second watershed of the Daluo Realm, equipped with the Four Directions Dragon Seal and the Investiture of the Gods in hand.

How Ye Xuan could defeat the Jade Emperor was simply a fantasy.

Although Shen Gongbao did not explicitly mention this—fearing it might affect Ye Xuan’s confidence—this was indeed the situation, and he strongly advised Ye Xuan.

Regrettably, Shen Gongbao did not know that Ye Xuan had been enduring for thousands of years.

Now, armed with overwhelming Daluo Cultivation, he naturally harbored an invincible belief; how could he possibly retreat?

Of course, Ye Xuan was a profoundly scheming figure.

Without needing Shen Gongbao to explicitly mention it, he could see what the other was thinking, yet he offered no explanation.

Should Ye Xuan tell Shen Gongbao that he was not just an ordinary Daluo Golden Immortal, but one who had embarked on the unprecedented path of Proving Dao with Power?

Although he appeared to have the cultivation of the Daluo First Layer Heaven, his actual combat power was comparable to a combatant of the Daluo’s second watershed.

Moreover, this was just his own cultivation, not to mention he possessed the Tribulation Immortal Transformation, the Heavenly Punishment Halberd, and the Reverse Immortal Array Map.

He was completely capable of sweeping away formidable enemies in all directions, suppressing them with his singular power.
