Chapter 1001 - 985: Cultivation Rises Again
The inner world left by the Invincible Emperor Domain is divided into six regions, and the Snow Plain is perpetually covered by snowstorms, with snowfall all year round. It seems like a frozen world with countless secrets waiting to be explored by future generations.
The cave named Ice and Snow Cave Heaven is extremely spacious, with a large internal space as if the entire stone mountain has been hollowed out, even the inside of the cave is covered with a layer of snow frost.
Countless treasures are inside, emitting rays of glow, as if a treasure trove had been opened.
The stone platform in front of Xiao Ye looks like it is made of white jade, and placed on it are nine extremely precious Emperor Martial Pills that an Emperor Martial Realm expert can only conjure one of in their lifetime. At this moment, his eyes are fervently fixed on a certain item atop the stone platform.
It’s an azure Imperial Sword!
Emitting an unmatched sharp Sword Qi, the cold glow seems like it can cut through the void, with a small and exquisite design, half of its blade is embedded in the gap of the white jade stone platform.
This Imperial Sword is similar in design to the Li Huo Sword Xiao Ye acquired from the Windless Forest basin. Even though he doesn’t understand the crafting of weapons, he can see at a glance that this Imperial Sword and Li Huo Sword were made by the same craftsman and have a mysterious connection.
On the hilt of this Imperial Sword, two ancient characters are inscribed: Tian Qian!
"A second Imperial Sword similar to Li Huo Sword? Could there be a third or fourth?" Xiao Ye reached out and pulled out the Tian Qian Sword, eyes filled with excitement.
For example, when he took the Li Huo Sword from the basin in the Windless Forest, Chi Yao was eager to trade with him, which signaled that this sword was definitely not ordinary.
He speculates that perhaps the true value of the Li Huo Sword exceeds the Imperial Weapon itself and is related to other Treasure Lands, or possibly a great treasure within the inner worlds.
Otherwise, why would Chi Yao have offered so many treasures to trade for the Li Huo Sword?
Now, having found another Imperial Sword similar to the Li Huo Sword, if this is indeed the case, he truly has a huge harvest this time.
"It’s a pity I don’t yet know the connection and use of these two swords." Xiao Ye flipped his hand, and from the Space Ring, he took out the Li Huo Sword. When both swords lay flat in his hands, they generated a resonance, and the blades gently trembled.
Clang!
Clang!
Xiao Ye wielded both swords, waving them casually in the void, feeling that the sharp Sword Qi erupted could indeed cut through the void.
After researching the two swords for a long time, Xiao Ye still found no special traits, so he put them together into the Space Ring, eyes then fixating greedily on the nine Emperor Martial Pills.
"With these nine Emperor Martial Pills, my cultivation should improve significantly." Xiao Ye’s eyes gleamed with joy.
When he joined Wu Ming Sect, Wu Ming wanted to find him Emperor Martial Pills to help Xiao Ye boost his cultivation, hence increasing his competitiveness in the inner world.
But alas, how rare are Emperor Martial Pills?
Each Emperor Martial Pill represents an Emperor Martial Realm expert’s life, thus the Emperor Martial Pills circulating the True Spirit Continent have always been very rare. They are only condensed at the brink of death by Emperor Martial Realm experts, hence even Wu Ming couldn’t obtain them.
Back then, Wu Ming mentioned it to Xiao Ye once, and Xiao Ye secretly remembered it, never expecting to discover them here.
"Because the Snow Plain is covered in ice and snow, treasures here are rarely accessed by people, which is why such precious treasures are left untouched," Xiao Ye thought silently, picking up the nine Emperor Martial Pills and sitting cross-legged atop the white jade stone platform.
Xiao Ye plans to enhance his cultivation within the Ice and Snow Cave Heaven first. This will give him more strength to compete for other treasures, because the biggest difference between him and the Young Supremes in the Invincible Emperor Domain is a gap in cultivation.
If he can catch up, even the Emperor’s son won’t be his match with his abnormal strength.
The Ice and Snow Cave Heaven is truly a natural place for cultivation, without fear of interruption.
Consuming Emperor Martial Pills is straightforward; just swallow and operate a cultivation technique to absorb them.
Boom!
The first Emperor Martial Pill entered his mouth, and Xiao Ye immediately felt as if it transformed into a sun, emitting unparalleled divine light, illuminating every part of his body. A torrent-like pure energy flowed out of the Emperor Martial Pill, rushing into his limbs and bones.
When an Emperor Martial Realm expert falls, their powerful Emperor Martial Power cannot be completely preserved, and it disperses into the ether, leaving nothing for future generations.
But Origin Energy can be extracted to make Emperor Martial Pills, containing energy that allows Emperor Martial Realm experts to absorb unimpeded, leaving no side effects, with incredible effects.
After all, every Emperor Martial Realm expert’s Emperor Martial Power has different attributes, even if preserved, it cannot be absorbed by another Emperor Martial Realm expert, which otherwise would cause rejection and impact cultivation. Origin Energy is the essence with no attributes, so when taken by martial artists, their cultivation won’t increase overly dramatically, but steadily.
Rumble!
Xiao Ye quickly formed a seal technique, driving the Four Emperor Skills’ Emperor Martial Scroll.
In the months of arduous training before the opening of the realm, besides cultivating a Domineering Body and Emperor-level Combat Skills and secret techniques, Xiao Ye hadn’t slacked in his cultivation. With the added time from the Time Tower, he finally grasped the cultivation method of the Four Emperor Skills’ Emperor Martial Scroll.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Xiao Ye appeared solemn, every muscle of his glowing, with four different Emperor Realms simultaneously manifesting, sweeping across the Nine Heavens, opening up four different worlds, melting the frost within Ice and Snow Cave Heaven, steaming with heat.
At the same time, the pure energy released from the Emperor Martial Pills within him was continuously absorbed into the four Emperor Realms, accelerating their establishment.
The Emperor Realm is essentially another world.
When cultivation reaches the peak of the Emperor Martial, the Emperor Realm already resembles the real world, allowing life to exist within it, much like the inner world, likely the Emperor Realm of the Undefeated Emperor during his Emperor Martial Realm.
"Emperor Martial Level 1 Mid Stage already, so fast!"
After an hour, Xiao Ye felt refreshed. Although his cultivation hadn’t excessively increased, the four kinds of Emperor Martial Power had become more exuberant, vastly different than before.
If his Emperor Martial Power used to be like water in a small river, then now it’s like the waters of the Yangtze River.
One must know that the difference between every small realm within the Emperor Martial is vast, and the advancement is more challenging.
"Continue!"
Xiao Ye consumed the second Emperor Martial Pill.
In a blink, a day had passed, and by this time, Xiao Ye had already absorbed all the pure energy contained in the nine Emperor Martial Pills.
