Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

Chapter 820 Idiot!

Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, Emperor Qing Palace.

"Boom~~~"

The palace gates opened, and Emperor Qing, the most transcendent of the thirteen emperors of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, finally emerged from seclusion. This news immediately reached the ears of the emperors.

Suddenly...

Emperor Fu, Emperor Xuan, Emperor Wu, and others arrived one by one, either in their true forms or in avatars.

"Please be seated, everyone."

Emperor Qing sat high in the main seat, and the ten emperors below him all sat down, their postures relatively humble in front of Emperor Qing.

They all knew very well that although they all appeared to be emperors, they were actually just ultimate-level life forms created by using Hunyuan bloodline and Hunyuan materials.

They weren't even at the ultimate level of comprehending a complete Great Dao, while Di Qing was an existence that surpassed the God King level and was on the same level as the two progenitors.

Moreover, it won't be long before, when the Origin Continent, this source world, is on the verge of destruction, those who failed to reach the Ultimate Realm will all have to leave the Origin Continent to venture out on their own.

At that time, they might all need Di Qing's protection, since their strength is far inferior to Di Qing's; they are not even on the same level.

"Di Qing, you should already know about Di Yan and Di Xi's situation," Di Fu said. "Tell me, what should we do now?"

"Ha ha……"

Di Qing sat there and laughed, "With Di Yan and Di Xi dead, our Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom will have eleven emperors. Very good, this number is auspicious."

Emperor Fu, Emperor Xuan, and the other ten emperors were speechless. The Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom had lost two emperors in succession. After such a thing happened, Emperor Qing was still laughing.

"Are Di Yan and Di Xi reincarnated or completely dead?" Di Qing asked again.

“This… Di Yan is not sure, but Di Xi is probably really dead!” Di Fu said hesitantly.

Di Xi died too quickly, so quickly that she didn't even have time to cry for help. If she hadn't revealed her true form of the Hunyuan bloodline and caused a commotion in Xidu City, they probably wouldn't have known either.

"Di Qing, are we just going to let this go like this?"

"It's just a small matter, why take it so seriously?" Di Qing laughed, treating the fall of the two emperors as nothing more than amusement.

"A trivial matter?" Di Wu couldn't help but ask, "The fact that two of the thirteen emperors have been killed in succession affects the entire royal family of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom."

Di Qing's gaze fell on Di Wu, who trembled involuntarily and dared not speak again.

"idiot!"

Di Qing immediately retorted, "Where did your brain go during your cultivation?"

Yang Wu's astonishing cultivation speed is unheard of, not only in the Origin Continent, but also in the entire Holy Realm of Cultivation where he resides. There is no other genius like him.

Given such a prodigy, even if it were the two progenitors, their first instinct would probably be to win him over rather than openly oppose him.

The reason why the ancestors of both countries held a certain degree of goodwill towards idle cultivators was because there were too many powerful idle cultivators born in the many source worlds.

Those who madly suppressed the strength of idle cultivators were mostly overthrown by rising powerhouses.

not to mention……

Yuan left behind many resources on the Origin Continent, but not all of them were left for the two progenitors. They were also afraid that monopolizing resources would displease Yuan.

Di Qing's gaze swept over the ten emperors present. "I think it's because you've had such a good life on the Origin Continent that you've become so arrogant and ignorant."

Even if Di Yan and Di Xi were still alive, Di Qing would still punish them severely for what they did.

He ventured out into the world, risking his life in the perilous darkness, while these emperors stirred up trouble on the Origin Continent, drawing hatred to the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom everywhere.

In the outside world, at best the clone dies in battle and all the precious treasures accumulated there are lost; at worst, the clone in the source world is implicated and completely annihilated.

Both ancestors ventured out into the world with utmost caution and trepidation. In Di Qing's view, the Origin Continent was too safe, and these emperors were too complacent, to the point that they now truly considered themselves the masters of the Origin Continent.

"Yes!"

Emperor Fu said bitterly, "As the current ruling emperor, whether or not he participated in the plot against Yang Wu, he must bear a small part of the responsibility."

"Compared to venturing out into the world, this matter on the Origin Continent is indeed a small matter, but we still need to have a solution, or rather, a solution to Yang Wu's attitude."

Difu understood perfectly well that the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom would inevitably have to acknowledge Yang Wu's existence from now on, just like the ancestor of the Eastern Extreme Region had to acknowledge his status.

"With the eight of you working together, your power has long since reached the limit of the Origin Continent."

Di Qing said leisurely, "With the Emperor's wife's array treasure, the profoundness of the moves surpasses that of the God King level. Even under such circumstances, they were all suppressed by Yang Wu."

"Whether it's their cultivation level or their physical body, their formation is a cut above yours."

Di Qing shook his head, "Even if I were to take action, I would be roughly equal to him, at most having the upper hand, but I wouldn't be able to defeat him."

"Under the influence of the rules of the Origin Continent, even the Ancestor could not do anything to him."

The ten emperors remained silent. In fact, they had foreseen the current situation when Yang Wu shook the Hunyuan Formation, but they simply did not want to face it.

After all, the royal family of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom was used to being powerful, so it was naturally difficult for them to adapt for a while.

"Don't shout for war or killing."

Di Qing looked at the ten emperors and said, "After you leave the Origin Continent, you will encounter many powerful figures. You must learn to make friends, or at least avoid making too many enemies."

"Yang Wu is already invincible on the Origin Continent, so we have to find a way to adapt to his existence."

"You must learn to adapt, to adapt to his existence, and to adapt to the existence of those who come after him."

"A lose-lose situation is not advisable."

"Yes," all ten emperors replied.

……

Beep~~
Inside the Emperor Qing Palace, the ten emperors had already departed, and Emperor Qing was still sitting there, but a wisp of energy had already crossed a vast distance and descended outside Molin City.

A thought materialized into the figure of Emperor Qing.

Di Qing held great goodwill toward Yang Wu, partly due to Yang Wu's potential, and partly because he longed to have a companion.

In this era, he and the Lord of the Myriad Realms were the only ones on the Origin Continent to comprehend the complete Great Dao.

They are competitors, but also partners.

However, Di Qing's resources were far superior to those of the Lord of the Myriad Realms. He became a God-King first and began to venture out into the outside world, widening the gap between them.

Venturing out into the world is more dangerous, but it also offers more opportunities and experiences.

Unfortunately, when he invited the ruler of the myriad realms to go out and explore together, the other party refused.

Di Qing understood this, after all, the latter was only at the Ultimate Realm. There was a qualitative difference between the Ultimate Realm and the God King Realm, and survival in the outside world was still too difficult for those at the Ultimate Realm.

"I wonder if this fellow Daoist of Reincarnation has truly reached the God Emperor level," Di Qing thought to himself.

The rise of the strong is a process, with the Chaos Realm, the first level of God King, the second level, the ultimate realm... all being achieved step by step.

Logically, there should be clues to follow, but judging from the information he discovered, Yang Wu seems to have transcended the Chaos Realm and directly reached the God King realm in one step.

This is so unreasonable.
