Chapter 163 A Gift from an Extreme Path Force (4k)

The moment Huo Lin'er uttered the second point, the atmosphere immediately changed.

The previously harmonious atmosphere instantly turned into an icy abyss. Apart from Huo Lin'er, who seemed completely unaware, and Jian Chen, who was waiting patiently, everyone unconsciously tensed up.

Jiang Hengzhou looked at Huo Lin'er and Yan Lin Dasheng with a strange expression, his eyes filled with disbelief.

No, brother, is this how you act as a protector?

Is this how you teach your own imperial son?

How could someone ask such a question in front of so many people, in their capacity?

Didn't you collect any information? Don't you know that this guy in front of you has already surpassed ordinary imperial sons and entered the circle of Great Sage Fellow Daoists by a wide margin?

"Ha, is this the attitude of the ancient race? Do you still think we're in the ancient era?"

Jiang Hengzhou snorted coldly, placed his hand on the Hengyu Furnace, and exuded the aura of an emperor, as if he was ready to start a war at the slightest provocation.

Himeko remained silent, but the Void Mirror above her head appeared and disappeared in the void.

Stimulated by the two extreme auras, the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd of Blood Phoenix Mountain also began to recover on its own.

The Great Sage Xuanhuang of Blood Phoenix Mountain glanced at Sha Xiao, who remained motionless, and nervously reassured the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd. He also immediately communicated with the Great Sage Yanlin through divine sense: "Yanlin! What's going on? Didn't we agree before we came to win this person over?"

"Secondly, the exchange was supposed to be for the Imperial Scriptures. Why the sudden change? Was this the idea of ​​your Fire Kirin Cave?"

"How could you let her act so recklessly? This isn't the Primordial Era anymore; can't you see the Emperor-level weapons in the hands of the human race?"

The Great Sage Yanlin's face stiffened, and he turned his head slightly without replying to his ally.

He desperately wanted to yell at the Great Sage Xuanhuang: "Come on, try managing one of your own imperial princes! What right do I have to instruct an imperial prince on how to do things?"

Huo Qizi stared at Ji Zi and Jiang Yifei without saying a word, but the imperial blood within his body was already flowing faster.

He didn't know why his sister had suddenly changed her second condition, but he knew that no matter what happened, he would support her.

At worst, we can just have a go at it.

So what if your human race has an imperial prince and imperial weapons?

I am the Prince of Qilin, wielding the Qilin Staff, and with my Qilin Sky-Treading Steps, I fear no one in the world.

Jiang Yifei looked at Huo Lin'er strangely, completely puzzled.

I didn't think she was an unintelligent person just from listening to her talk, so how come her IQ suddenly dropped so drastically?

Is it even appropriate to say that?

Throughout history, which power hasn't kept its secret techniques tightly under wraps?

For those who rise to the imperial path, there are almost no secret techniques in this world that they cannot learn.

Even if you can't really learn it, once you get your hands on it, it's easy to imitate a secret technique or countermeasure at a similar level.

If two great emperors were to clash, and one side knew the other's imperial secrets, then they could easily find the other's weakness and defeat him.

For cultivators of the Heaven-Covering Sect, coveting other people's secret techniques is an irreconcilable enmity!

Just like in the original work, one of the main moral high grounds that the Ji family used to hunt down Ye Fan was that he had stolen the Ji family's "Void Scripture".

With this moral high ground in place, even if everyone knew that the Ji family coveted Ye Fan's treasures, they couldn't say anything.

Huang Xudao sensed the tension in the atmosphere and calmly took out a star stone plate from his bosom that could be used to forge a saint's array flag.

Several ancient jade tea sets, engraved with ancient landscapes and imbued with the atmosphere of time, are displayed on it.

Under the tense gaze of everyone, he raised his hand and exhaled a stream of vital energy into the teapot.

Then, without haste, he took out a few slender tea leaves from the teapot. These tea leaves were engraved with images of phoenixes, lotuses, and dragons, which stirred the heavens and earth and were truly extraordinary.

"Enlightenment Tea?"

Jiang Yifei was slightly surprised when he saw the tea leaves that Huang Xudao had taken out.

These are the leaves of the elixir of immortality, capable of helping people attain enlightenment, and even beneficial to ancient emperors.

Throughout the entire Beidou region, very few people can enjoy this kind of tea.

Huang Xudao took out so many things so easily at once, it seems he must have a lot of stock. He truly deserves to be the son of an ancient emperor, he has so many treasures.

"This is excellent tea. This is no ordinary Wudao tea. Wudao ancient tree tea is produced every year, but in ordinary years there are only 108 pieces."

"This is a major outbreak that only occurs once every 3,600 years; only this can be considered a true Enlightenment Tea."

"Tsk, there wasn't enough time back then, and neither Void nor I got to drink it."

After entering without uttering a word, Jian Chen, who had aroused everyone's curiosity, spoke for the first time, and the information in his words shocked everyone.

Does this person mean that he once drank tea with the Void Emperor?

If it's true, how old is he? A living fossil who followed the emperor?

"Haha, please don't take it to heart, Fellow Daoist Sha Xiao and all the seniors. Please have some tea and calm down for now."

"My little sister Lin'er is still young. She just misremembered and made a slip of the tongue."

"What she meant was that we are willing to form an alliance with fellow Daoists. At that time, allies can exchange scriptures and share what they have."

"We do indeed want to see the new path you have opened up, fellow Daoist. Although our cultivation is still insufficient, we have served the Emperor for a long time, and perhaps we can fill in some gaps in your great path."

Huang Xudao smiled gently, showing no trace of the arrogance of the Primordial Clan, nor any of the bloodthirstiness of the Xuanhuang Great Sage beside him.

If the Emperor's Dao marks on his body were so obvious, people would even think that he was a human Taoist who had studied the Dao of Nature for many years.

"Fellow Daoist?"

Sha Xiao looked at Huang Xu with a mischievous grin, and the aura of the Wan Qing Immortal Gu, which could shake one's mind, was revealed.

The aura of the Heavenly Heart Dao, which belongs exclusively to the Great Emperor and cannot be inherited even by Imperial Weapons, was revealed. As a result, the Imperial Weapons of Fire Scale Cave and Blood Phoenix Mountain could not help but revive their divine senses.

"Who is provoking my Fire Kirin Cave?"

"Blood Phoenix Mountain cannot be humiliated!"

"Bomb One"

Two invincible auras surged forth and swept towards Sha Xiao.

Jiang Yifei immediately tugged at his ancestor's Daoist robe, his divine sense tense as he asked, "Ancestor Hengzhou, aren't we going to make a move?"

"Just you wait and see. The laws of the Great Emperor are not something that a single weapon can shake."

Jiang Hengzhou remained completely unhurried, sitting calmly on the sidelines.

Ji Zi asked Jian Chen, who was watching the scene, "Uncle Jian Chen, is he alright?"

Jian Chen chuckled, shifting his gaze to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion, and said with delight, "It was hard to say half a month ago, but now it's definitely no problem. Hey, I don't know how this kid managed to make such a big breakthrough in just half a month."

"Young people these days are truly formidable."

Two powerful auras of imperial weapons, capable of crushing the void, precisely struck Sha Xiao.

Sha Xiao made no move, but simply used the aura of the Myriad Green Immortal Gu to envelop himself.

The traces of the Heavenly Dao from the Immortal Venerable of Paradise and his near-Supreme Grandmaster realm gave him a deeper understanding of the will of Heaven.

Almost subconsciously, he was able to manipulate the dominance of this area of ​​heaven and earth through the Heavenly Heart Aura of the Myriad Green Immortal Gu.

In an instant, everyone had the illusion that Sha Xiao was facing all of them at the same time.

In everyone's eyes, his figure seemed to grow infinitely taller, with one eye reaching above the sun.

A sudden realization dawned on everyone's hearts—at this moment, Sha Xiao stood above all paths.

The imperial aura of the Qilin Staff and the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd was completely suppressed by the aura of the Myriad Green Immortal Canopy.

Before Sha Xiao could even make a move, all the myriad paths of heaven and earth seemed to have been provoked, naturally coalescing to help him suppress the aura of the Emperor's Dao.

When the auras of the two imperial weapons reached Sha Xiao, they had become extremely small, like two insignificant breezes that only stirred the tips of Sha Xiao's hair.

The divine senses of the Qilin Staff and the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd stared at Sha Xiao in astonishment, looking as if they had just witnessed something amazing.

He encountered the Myriad Green Immortal Gu disguised as the Heavenly Heart, whose myriad suppressions were as strong as a monster, and he could not defeat it even with all his strength.

"The Mark of Heaven!"

The Great Sage Yanlin and the Great Sage Xuanhuang stared wide-eyed at Sha Xiao in disbelief, their auras bursting forth and crushing the seats around them, along with the void itself.

"what?"

The divine senses of the Qilin Staff and the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd murmured doubts, looking at Sha Xiao with uncertainty.

After a brief moment of defense, the myriad paths of heaven and earth returned to their original state, and the aura of the Heavenly Heart Mark disappeared.

Sha Xiao sat there calmly and motionless, as if he had not noticed at all that two supreme imperial mights had just attacked him.

They could see at that moment that the aura on Sha Xiao's body was not the genuine Heavenly Heart Mark, but rather a clumsy imitation.

However, in that instant, what dissolved their supreme imperial might was something that only a complete Heavenly Heart Imprint could do so with ease.

Staring intently at Sha Xiao, Princess Wanlong bit her red lips, took a deep breath, her chest heaving, and her resolve hardened.

Even if she saw him again, she would still be amazed by Sha Xiao's extraordinary talent.

"hiss--!"

Yanlin Great Sage rested his hand on the Qilin Staff, his eyes burning with a greedy and intense gaze at Sha Xiao.

"Make a move?"

Xuanhuang Dasheng looked at Sha Xiao with equal excitement, as if he were looking at a super big piece of fat meat.

This is the mark of Heaven!

Once you get your hands on it, you'll instantly become the Emperor's Heavenly Mark!

If we can get this, why can't we become emperors?

When I become emperor...

In an instant, boundless greed enveloped their hearts.

This caused the two Great Sages, who had seen countless things and were designated by the Great Emperor as the foundation of their power, to lose their minds.

In fact, almost no one can remain rational in the face of this temptation.

Jiang Hengzhou had witnessed the entire process of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's rise to power and knew that the Heavenly Heart Mark was merely the final proof.

If one's own foundation is insufficient, consuming the Dao-Merging Flower is merely providing a powerful remedy to the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone.

Gai Jiuyou is proud and arrogant, and he disdains to inherit the Dao fruit of others. He is determined to become an emperor by himself.

Otherwise, given his age, he could have waited until the suppression of the Azure Emperor's Great Dao dissipated before undergoing his tribulation; why would he have ended up with so many injuries?

The Great Sage Qianlun wanted to attack Sha Xiao at that time, but Sha Xiao was at the height of his power, having destroyed the sect with three strikes, and Qianlun was not confident.

"Buzz—!"

The divine senses of the Qilin Staff and the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Halberd instantly detected the wavering state of their Great Sage's mind.

They took the initiative, draining the two Great Sages of their divine power and snapping them out of their madness.

"Hahaha, the rumors are actually true? Is this the pinnacle of the new path you've created? Truly a genius, I am ashamed of my own inferiority."

"However, this makes me even more interested in your new method."

Huang Xudao suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter carrying a hint of admiration, but more so a resolute determination to succeed.

Even the usually composed Ji Zi looked at Huang Xudao with suspicion, wanting to know what his plans were.

Sha Xiao's meaning is already very clear.

So what if he's an imperial prince?

Compared to Sha Xiao's achievements, they are still children until they realize their potential. What right do they have to call each other fellow Daoists with Sha Xiao?

Huang Xudao stared at the puzzled looks of the crowd and generously took out a golden jade disc: "This is the Yuanhuang Nourishing Spirit Technique that my father obtained from the secret realm. The Yuanhuang is recognized as having the strongest divine sense among the ancient emperors. Here is a small gift for you."

Sha Xiao's heart skipped a beat, but she looked at Huang Xu with a blank expression.

How did he know?

Was it just a lucky guess?

Did you figure it out?

Sha Xiao looked at Huang Xu with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

The secret technique that Huang Xudao is now presenting has greatly tempted Sha Xiao.

The primordial spirit is a realm that even many ancient emperors and great emperors rarely explored.

To delve deeper into the study of the primordial spirit, one generally needs to reach the Sendai realm before one can begin.

But by this time, the paths of most young emperors had already been decided, and they would never turn to this direction; at most, they would try to learn something from similar examples.

Emperor Yuan was truly a rare emperor who specialized in cultivating the primordial spirit.

Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise. In the cultivation of the primordial spirit, even the average Great Emperor combined might not be as good as him.

Sha Xiao's biggest problem right now is that his divine sense cannot control too many Dao traces.

If we could obtain a method for cultivating the primordial spirit, it would greatly alleviate Sha Xiao's problem.

Suppressing her excitement, Sha Xiao carefully recalled the description of this prince in the original novel.

But the more he looked, the more confused he became.

Because in the original work, Huang Xudao has almost no plot.

The few descriptions that do exist mostly depict the opponent's vengeful nature and swift retreat, without highlighting any significant achievements.

Of course, this can also be described as being sensible and persevering.

After all, they can change course as quickly as the wind.

Even after his father was killed by Ye Fan, he was still able to suppress his hatred and focus on the Dao.

If one survives through four lifetimes and is still alive and well, how can that not be considered a skill?

Now that she has seen him in person, Sha Xiao's opinion of him has changed drastically.

Regardless of whether he stumbled upon this by sheer luck or genuinely recognized his own shortcomings and was simply trying to please him.

Just look at his previous actions in helping Huo Lin'er out of trouble.

His current lack of arrogance and his humble and courteous actions demonstrate his ability to be flexible and adaptable, as well as his worldly wisdom.

Huang Xudao smiled stiffly, his heart pounding as he carefully observed Sha Xiao's expression, trying to decipher it.

"It shouldn't be wrong. The information from Zhongzhou is very accurate. This person is definitely spreading his teachings intentionally or unintentionally."

"Our actions will certainly not be rejected."

After much deliberation, Sha Xiao did not respond to Huang Xudao's words, but instead looked directly at the two imperial weapons and said, "Since you're no longer pretending to be asleep, let's have an open and honest talk."
