Chapter 730: Chapter 680: Top Divine Weapon, Human Path Treasures
Since the inception of the Divine Dynasty, the rulers have always shown their immense strength, a fact witnessed firsthand by many eminent figures and cultivators of the Spirit Realm Eightfold.
As the pinnacle existence of the Dynasty, they could suppress Heaven and Earth, even elite forces and those standing at the peak of cultivation must avoid conflict with them.
It’s known to many how greatly the Dynasty can empower a cultivator. The extent to which Zhu Houji, under the patronage of the Dynasty, has elevated his power over the years is unknown to anyone but himself.
What’s more, since their recent collaboration with the Witch Deity Teaching, Zhu Houji has received many things including the most suitable divine weapon, making him immeasurably powerful.
“Make your move!” Zhu Houji spoke with indifference.
When he arrived at Shenxiao Mountain, he was merely an avatar. But when he realised a fight was imminent, he had to bring his true self here. Even though he was confident about his strength, he knew that in a battle against a cultivator of Spirit Realm Eightfold, he wouldn’t triumph like Pei Xuanjing.
Boom!
The Vice Leader of the Blood Fiend Sect exploded with power, his dreadful Blood Qi piercing the sky, staining the heavens red.
As the Vice Leader, and one of the dominant forces among Spirit Realm Eightfold cultivators, he seldom had to be this cautious unless he was facing a figure of the highest realm.
However, the person he was up against was none other than the Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty. Despite not yet reaching its peak, this newly ascended Dynasty backed with endless will of Heaven and Earth, imbued with Qi Luck, represented an extremely formidable force.
He had personally experienced the existence of the Tang Dynasty in its prime. Even though the Tang Dynasty was past its peak, the vestiges of its mighty power still left a lifetime mark on him, reminding him to never be complacent.
He was grateful that the Great Ming Divine Dynasty had just ascended and had not reached its most prosperous epoch. Otherwise, even if Emperor Zhu Houji hadn’t stepped into the Strongest Realm, he would hesitate to make a move.
As the Vice Leader of the Blood Fiend Sect showed his might, Zhu Houji likewise didn’t shy away. Initially clad in ordinary imperial attire, when his power arose, his clothes transformed into a formal gown, with Qi Luck encircling him, transforming into countless dragons.
Boom!
At the moment Zhu Houji’s power erupted, an overpowering force manifested. The Vice Leader of the Blood Fiend Sect, standing opposite him, felt an intense sky and earth opposition pressing down, as if he were an irredeemable sinner, despised by Heaven and Earth.
However, the Vice Leader wasn’t surprised and didn’t care about the aversion of Heaven and Earth since he, as a follower of the Demonic Way, was accustomed to the world’s disdain.
His Primordial Qi circulated within him, releasing his boundless Blood Qi which morphed into a massive palm print, seemingly wanting to submerge and cover Zhu Houji.
But Zhu Houji remained calm, activating his Divine Position, and an endless power swept out, purifying everything, including the expansive Blood Qi.
Both of them unleashed formidable powers upon their clash, yet it was clear that Zhu Houji, the Lord of the Divine Dynasty, was on par with the Vice Leader of the Blood Fiend Sect.
However, many of the strongest figures observed that this was just an eruption of power. Zhu Houji, due to his short cultivation duration, could only maintain this terrifying output for a limited time.
Nonetheless, even with this constraint, his aura was still extremely terrifying. Within just a few decades, or more accurately, just fifty years, the Dynasty’s power had elevated Zhu Houji, who was merely a mortal martial artist, to this level — a truly frightening feat.
And in the time to come, as Heaven and Earth revitalise and the Great Ming Divine Dynasty strengthens, the power of its Emperor is bound to grow even mightier.
Moreover, many powerful figures thought that if one day the Sky Wasteland was fully integrated into Ancestral Land, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, favoured by Heaven and Earth, might become even stronger after the land assimilates everything and ascends once more — a highly likely outcome.
Therefore, as they watched the continuous clash and Zhu Houji practising the skills of the Rulers of ancient times, many mighty figures regarded the Witch Deity Sect Leader in a different light. When Zhu Houji seemed to grow weaker and appeared to be on the verge of defeat, they suppressed their discontent, refraining from voicing their objections.
After all, they were not a unified front. Their alliance that day was nothing more than a matter of mutual interest. If these incentives disappeared, the conflicts amongst them would be even greater than with Pei Xuanjing’s side.
However, when Zhu Houji, already showing signs of defeat, pulled out something — or rather, a divine weapon — the rest of these mighty figures could no longer remain calm.
“It’s actually that thing!”
“Witch God Sect Leader, have you gone mad?”
“You dare to hand over such a thing, are you seeking death?”
“…”
When many mighty figures saw this divine weapon, their faces changed drastically and could no longer suppress their discontent. They questioned the Witch Deity Sect Leader.
What could Zhu Houji possibly have brought out that would cause such commotion and make everyone lose their composure?
The Xuanyuan Sword!
Human Path Treasure, a top-tier divine weapon, the Xuanyuan Divine Sword.
No one expected Zhu Houji to pull out such a thing right here and now, in front of everyone, at this occasion.
It was rumoured throughout Heaven and Earth that this divine weapon was in the possession of the Witch Deity Teaching. But without concrete evidence, no one dared to probe any further given the enormous strength of such an top-tier force.
Even if the weapon was indeed in possession of the Witch Deity Teaching, what could they do about it? Surely they wouldn’t unite to seize it?
But the concept of the divine weapon remaining with the Witch Deity Teaching or ending up in the hands of Zhu Houji, the Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, was viewed completely differently by the mighty figures and factions.
