Zhao Cheng, serving as a chess piece, has been planted within the Golden Maiden Sect to keep a constant watch on their movents for the Great Xia Dynasty.
Inside the Hanyuan Hall
Zhang Jian summoned Zhao Cheng.
Upon the lofty Emperor's Throne, behind Zhang Jian appeared a hazy purple and yellow radiance, the Divine Dao Authority manifesting majestically like the blazing sun high above the vault of heaven.
Zhao Cheng took just one look, and imdiately felt his Primordial Spirit was under imnse impact. Gazing any longer would likely distort and shatter his Yin God Divine Sense.
Without delay, he relayed the information he had gathered.
"Emperor, recently, our Golden Maiden Sect held another routine eting. A cultivator skilled in observing celestial phenona and Qi found over a dozen Celestial Demon Altars in the depths of an ancient city, predicting that the demonic Qi is faintly appearing in the sky, and it won't be long before the Celestial Demon Star descends!"
"The Celestial Demon Star descends?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian's eyes showed a hint of peculiarity.
He had heard of the ominous phenonon of the Celestial Demon Star descending, which had occurred several tis since ancient tis. Each successful descent would trigger great calamities, especially for cultivators in the Cultivation Realm.
The Celestial Demon Star, in essence, is an external manifestation of a Demon God beyond the realm condensing an anomaly above the sky.
The descent of the Celestial Demon Star involves the Outer Demon God projecting part of its power into the depths of the great realm, birthing a natural demon embryo.
Once born, it would cause devastation, and if unable to be eradicated in advance, it would quickly grow by absorbing the power of the Celestial Demon Star, acquiring the strength of an Outer Demon God.
This is quite similar in nature to the Asura Gate.
Both are invasions.
"Where is the location, and the exact ti?"
With a respectful expression and clasped hands, Zhao Cheng answered, "The Emperor is benevolent, this location is in Jiutanzhou of the Two Realms Region, and the ti, according to the inference by that Great True Master, is likely one to two months away!"
Zhang Jian nodded with a smile.
"Well done, if you truly serve my Great Xia, I will not treat you unfairly!"
Zhao Cheng nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
A few days later, news also ca from the direction of the Tongshan Dao Lineage about the imminent ergence of the Celestial Demon Star, and they had already decided on who would take action.
Once he heard the news, Zhang Jian imdiately sent a ssage to True Monarch Zhanmo, expressing his own interest in the matter and requesting the Tongshan Dao Lineage to send detailed information so he could personally intervene.
Zhang Jian also intended to use this opportunity to boost his public prestige.
Since he embarked on the Dao of the Ancient Saint King, it was naturally necessary to undertake so grand and upright deeds in line with the emperor's path.
And needless to say, after completing such deeds, he could continue to reap benefits within the Ancestral Hall.
Zhang Jian was certainly not one to miss such an opportunity.
...
A month later.
In the Yellow Court Blessed Land Dharma Realm, the majestic depths of the Yellow Court Blessed Land Dharma Realm at this mont flowed with purple and yellow light.
With Zhang Jian cultivating the Yellow Court Blessed Land Technique to the Creation Realm, it seed to penetrate the Nine Netherworld and the subspace deep within the firmant, continuously gathering turbid ground Qi and clear celestial Qi, the Yin and Yang of the universe intertwined.
Although this blessed land space, compared to Zhang Jian's Lifebound Primordial Immortal Technique of the Map of Mountains and Rivers and the World, does not co close to its grandeur and vastness.
Yet this technique has its advantage; it can evolve into various spaces with the earth's profound mysteries, greatly aiding Zhang Jian in perfecting these heavenly and earth authorities.
Standing at the center of the blessed land, as the Dragon Qi surged around him, a blazingly intense light was born at the center of his brow.
Imperial Qi faintly erged, and extrely purple brilliance flowed.
This was the condensation of the ninth Emperor's Fate based on the Sutra of the Human King.
Which is the Human Emperor's Fate.
His foundation was deep and substantial.
The previous eight Emperor's Fates had already congealed into form.
Congealing the ninth special Emperor's Fate was a matter of course.
In fact, the Human Emperor temperant before him could actually go two ways: either the Nine Dragon Fate or the Human Emperor's Fate.
Previously, he had congealed the Nine-Five Fate Grid, which was the precursor to the Nine Dragon Fate; upon assimilating the other seven and re-establishing a new Emperor's Fate, it could directly advance to the Nine Dragon Fate.
Yet facing a choice between the Nine Dragon Fate and the Human Emperor's Fate, Zhang Jian chose the 'Human Emperor's Fate' in the end.
The Sutra of the Human King records that while the Nine Dragon Fate is indeed Nine Nine Venerable, once ford, it can suppress the Central Palace, governing the Heaven and Earth Dragon Qi, and Imperial Qi, but it leans towards the Emperor Dao, the Divine Dao.
Whereas the Human Emperor's Fate is sowhat more balanced.
The Human Emperor's Fate leans towards the Emperor Dao, the Path of Ten Thousand Spirits.
The Sutra of the Human King also compares the two fates, stating that possessing the Human Emperor's Fate has more advantages when facing an Ancient Saint King with a similar fate.
For instance, King Jun had once held the advantage when contending against Ancestor Master Xia Yu of the Tongshan Dao Lineage.
If not for Ancestor Master Xia Yu gathering a second Emperor's Authority at a crucial mont, relying on the dual Emperor's Authority to suppress, he might not have won.
At this mont, the Human Emperor's Position absorbed the existing eight Emperor's Fates, emitting a layer of practically tangible purple Qi.
This layer of purple Qi was generated, quickly stabilizing several Primordial Spirit Heart thods that were about to collapse due to the disappearance of the Emperor's Fates.
Including the Nine Revolutions of Heaven and Earth Cauldron Casting Technique centered on the Tripod Calms Heaven and Earth.
And the Lifebound Primordial Immortal Technique of the Map of Mountains and Rivers and the World.
Every cultivator walking the Dao of the Ancient Saint King has their own characteristic in the Human Emperor's Fate.
Currently, Zhang Jian's Human Emperor's Fate, rging with the powers of the other eight Emperor's Fates, clearly possessed relevant Divine Dao Authorities.
Including suppression, Heaven and Earth, Sheji, Red Virtue, Ziwei, Mountains and Rivers, and others.
As each authority was integrated, the majestic Dragon Qi and Imperial Qi around him increased, and a magnificent purple Qi circulated around him, transford into blazing chapters, nearly suppressing heaven and earth.
The mountains and rivers were radiant.
Zhang Jian felt that his Human Emperor's Fate at this mont had transford into sothing akin to an Emperor's Position of the Divine Dao.
It surpassed the realm of mundane Emperor's Fates.
It similarly held corresponding authoritative powers.
At the mont the Human Emperor's Fate was achieved, he simultaneously felt that he had beco the master of the billions of miles of Imperial Qi and Dragon Qi of the Great Xia Dynasty, rather than rely integrating into it, borrowing its power.
"To so extent, this Human Emperor's Fate seems inclined towards a control-type fate; when the Human Emperor travels, all paths yield!"
Zhang Jian mused silently.
Just as Zhang Jian successfully congealed the Human Emperor's Fate.
And almost simultaneously, across the Eastern Continent Fertile Land, the Two Realms Region, even in the Profound Mystery Divine Continent, and many other regions, nurous human emperors' temples suddenly resonated and vibrated, streaks of purple Qi soared into the sky.
Amidst the flowing purple clouds, many sacrificial vessels enshrined within Human Emperor and Saint King temples emitted resonant sounds of excitent at this mont.
This spectacle also drew the attention of many powerful practitioners of the Immortal Dao.
Such anomalies seldom occur in this great realm.
This vision began suddenly and quickly subsided.
Zhang Jian, in a mont of inspiration, also vaguely sensed this change, but paid it no mind.
After cultivating the Human Emperor's Fate, to so extent, he had taken a most solid step on the Dao of the Ancient Saint King, though he had yet to achieve the full attainnt of the Ancient Saint King.
True attainnt of the Ancient Saint King absolutely requires more than a single Human Emperor's Fate.
Possessing the Human Emperor's Position and the Human Emperor's Fate are two different matters!
However, owning a Human Emperor's Fate certainly holds promise for achieving the Human Emperor's Position, or rather, an Ancient Saint King Position!
