"This is my only request," Xu Zii shook his head and said, "How about we set a ti limit?
Once I carry the destiny and ascend to the Upper Realm, I will let you leave, grant you freedom.
Then you can choose your own path."
Hearing Xu Zii’s words, the Divine Emperor fell silent once again.
"You should think it over; this is a fair trade.
Just serve for a few hundred years on Yuan Central Continent, and once I ascend, you will be free.
If you are unwilling, the chance of finding the Red Lotus is less than one in ten, and gathering the Destiny is even more remote."
"I can compete for the Destiny of this era," the Divine Emperor suddenly lifted his head, eyes deep as he stared at Xu Zii, speaking indifferently.
"Then there’s nothing to talk about. See you at the summit of the Firmant," Xu Zii smiled and walked straight out of the grand hall.
Halfway out, he suddenly turned around and said with a smile, "Oh right, I forgot to remind you of sothing.
Do you want to kill to silence ?
Otherwise, once I leave the Old Land, the news of the Divine Emperor’s resurrection will spread across the entire Yuan Central Continent.
By then, the three Great Emperors who attacked you before, the Immortal Gates they founded, won’t let you go.
After all, you are no longer the Great Emperor you were back then."
Hearing Xu Zii’s words, the Divine Emperor snorted coldly and replied, "A bunch of chickens and dogs, if they dare to co to the Old Land.
I can just take the opportunity to avenge the past and bury them all here."
As one of the Ten Great Forbidden Lands, the Old Land’s dangers are naturally unspeakable.
The Divine Emperor also has confidence; those from the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect would dare to co to the Old Land, perhaps not even finding the Divine Gate before being annihilated here.
"You might not fear those from the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect, but what if the Divine Gate becos the common enemy of the entire continent?" Xu Zii asked with a smile.
"What do you an?" the Divine Emperor frowned slightly.
"Dao Vein Crystal Mine," Xu Zii said word by word.
As Xu Zii’s voice fell, the entire aura of the Divine Emperor changed.
Imperial might enveloped the entire palace, and waves of divine power surged around him.
anwhile, Bai ng let out a cold snort, demonic Qi also enveloping the grand hall, staring intently at the Divine Emperor.
"I’ve really underestimated you," the Divine Emperor’s expression fluctuated, looking at Xu Zii with so disbelief.
"As one of the Ten Great Forbidden Lands, you unexpectedly built the Divine Gate here against everyone’s expectations," Xu Zii stated composedly: "Wasn’t it for the Dao Vein Crystal Mine beneath?"
Taoist Vein Crystal is a very peculiar crystal stone, containing the power of Taoist Charm within.
This power cannot directly enhance a person’s cultivation, but it can help martial artists open the Vein Gates within their bodies.
It is well-known that there are twelve Vein Gates within the human body which can be said to be the foundation of human cultivation.
The further one progresses, the harder these Vein Gates beco to unlock.
Especially for martial artists in the Saint Vein Realm, or even the Divine Vein Realm, if they want to unlock Vein Gates, they can’t just rely on their own strength; the resources consud are unimaginably great.
This is also why it is difficult for Loose Cultivators to cultivate.
Xu Zii previously took a Ten-Vein Fruit, which has similar effects to the Taoist Vein Crystals.
However, the Ten-Vein Fruit, being a Cosmos Tier Mysterious dicine, only blooms and bears fruit once every three or four thousand years, and is extrely rare.
As for the Dao Vein Crystal Mine deep beneath the Old Land, the extent of it is still unknown.
If it weren’t for these Dao Vein Crystal Mines, the Divine Gate would just be an ordinary Imperial Rule Immortal Sect.
They have only ever produced one Great Emperor throughout their history—the Divine Emperor, so how co they now have five Immortal Ascension Boundary powerhouses?
It can be said that once the news of the Dao Vein Crystal Mine is revealed, it will cause a storm throughout the continent.
In a previous life, the exposure of the Dao Vein Crystal Mine in the Old Land still occurred a few hundred years later.
Back then, it was led by innurable Immortal Gates, with almost all Loose Cultivators on the continent uniting.
One could say that at a great cost, the entire Old Land had been turned upside down, and this so-called Forbidden Land was ultimately destroyed.
Of course, the reason people dared to attack the Old Land in the past life was also that a particularly dangerous thing inside the Old Land was gone.
...…
"You’ve got in a tight spot," the Divine Emperor said with a slight squint, "Even if I didn’t co looking for you, you would have co looking for ."
"Consider my proposal, actually it’s advantageous for both of us," Xu Zii said, "If we must go that far, it’s harmless for .
But for your Divine Gate, it would be a devastating blow."
The Divine Emperor pondered, casting a glance at Bai ng beside him.
Actually, his inner desire was to rise up and kill Xu Zii right then and there, but with Bai ng present, he knew it wasn’t possible.
Even if he called over all five of the Immortal Ascension Boundary experts from the Divine Gate, they probably wouldn’t be a match for Bai ng.
That was the difference between Entering the Taoism and Stepping into Immortality.
The Great Emperor was unrivaled in his era.
It was already a difference in both quality and quantity.
Unless there could be a few more people in this world like the Sword Immortal.
...…
After pondering for a long ti, the Divine Emperor eventually shook his head and let out a light chuckle.
His smile was mixed with bitterness and helplessness.
"Fine, I agree," he said.
He slightly turned his head away, his gaze profoundly fixed on the distance.
He too had once been high-spirited, standing above the firmant, receiving worship from countless people.
He was not lacking the courage to start over.
But if the Divine Gate were destroyed, reducing him to a Loose Cultivator, then having to compete with the Talented Disciples of the whole world for Destiny,
to be honest, he wasn’t confident inside.
The path of a Great Emperor was filled with too many hardships and obstacles.
Because he had walked it, he knew its difficulties.
This path was filled with too many uncertainties.
Previously, he had no choice but to follow one path to the dark end.
But now, there was obviously a better option.
As long as he could serve soone else for a few hundred years, he could regather Destiny and ascend to Great Emperor again.
This seed to be a more advantageous choice.
But the Divine Emperor knew that at this mont, what he was compromising was not just a deal, but also his pride and self-respect.
...
"If you’ve thought it through, let Bai ng plant a Demon Seal in your True Fate," Xu Zii said, "On the day we go to the Upper Realm, I will release the Demon Seal for you."
"Co on," the Divine Emperor said with a carefree and helpless smile.
As Bai ng planted the Demon Seal in the Divine Emperor with the chaos of the void whispering in confusion to Xu Zii, "Master, did you also coax like this before?"
"Can it be called coaxing when both parties are willing?" Xu Zii retorted.
"Besides, with your intelligence, how could you possibly be easily coaxed."
"That’s true," Chaos agreed, nodding its head.
With the Demon Seal planted, Bai ng said, "You should serve our lord well.
This Demon Seal can only be undone by ; unless your cultivation surpasses mine, there’s no other way."
