The Undying Heavenly Lord departed, and Ye Xuan was montarily stunned, but then instantly understood.
It was not that the Undying Heavenly Lord didn’t want to kill him, but rather, the Undying Heavenly Lord knew that Ye Xuan possessed the Forbidden Escape Technique, the Heavenly Tribulation Transformation. Even if he intended to kill him, Ye Xuan could rely on the Heavenly Tribulation Transformation to escape.
Moreover, Ye Xuan had the Revival Technique, so even if he were killed, what would it matter? Ye Xuan would still rely on his Secret Technique to resurrect.
In fact, from the very beginning, Ye Xuan had been plotting against the Undying Heavenly Lord, hoping to use the Life-taking Technique to open the Tenth Heavenly Gate.
Conversely, the Undying Heavenly Lord was also plotting against Ye Xuan, rely confirming whether Ye Xuan was still alive.
He was also extracting all of Ye Xuan’s trump cards, intending to know the enemy. Only then could he truly annihilate Ye Xuan.
The Undying Heavenly Lord had already understood Ye Xuan’s protection thods, whether it was the Forbidden Escape Technique or Ye Xuan’s Life-taking Technique, he already knew Ye Xuan’s trump cards.
The rest was simple. As long as he targeted Ye Xuan’s two trump cards, he could definitely annihilate Ye Xuan for real, and it was only a matter of ti.
At this mont.
Watching the Undying Heavenly Lord gradually fade away, Ye Xuan’s expression turned increasingly grave.
Because the one who knows you best is certainly the one who hates you the most.
Although the Undying Heavenly Lord was gone, his trump cards had been exposed, which posed a significant crisis for Ye Xuan.
For the Undying Heavenly Lord would surely target his trump cards to devise a real plan to destroy him.
"No, I must quickly open the Tenth Heavenly Gate, otherwise when this old thief finds a way to crack the Life-taking Technique, I’ll inevitably fall into his hands." Ye Xuan muttered heavily.
Boom!
Ye Xuan took a step forward and disappeared directly into the starry sky.
...
Central Domain, Northern Territory Heavenly Court.
Over the years, the Northern Territory Heavenly Court had been continuously growing and expanding, with Huang and Gu Beichen both stepping into the Immortal Realm.
Gu Beichen had already opened the Third Heavenly Gate, and though Huang’s aptitude was a bit lacking, he too managed to open the First Heavenly Gate.
However, with the arrival of Li Taichu and Jun Wushuang, the strength of the Northern Territory Heavenly Court saw a significant boost, ranking it among the top Great Sects in the entire Central Domain.
However, Huang and others adhered to Ye Xuan’s orders, always guarding a secluded area in the north, seldom venturing into the Central Domain, therefore remaining relatively unknown.
On this day, Ye Xuan finally returned.
As soon as he arrived at the Northern Territory Heavenly Court, Huang and Gu Beichen quickly ca to et him, with Li Taichu and Jun Wushuang following swiftly.
The fact that Ye Xuan could return alive from the hands of a Supre left Li Taichu and Jun Wushuang internally shaken, but for Huang and Gu Beichen, miracles by Ye Xuan were a norm they had grown accustod to.
Having not seen Huang and Gu Beichen for years, Ye Xuan briefly caught up with them, as they reported the developnt of the Northern Territory Heavenly Court over the years.
Huang and Gu Beichen had been by his side since the Human World, and their bond was unmatched by others.
This was also why Ye Xuan entrusted the Northern Territory Heavenly Court to them with peace of mind.
After a brief chat for half a day, Ye Xuan entered into seclusion, as the threat posed by the Undying Heavenly Lord was becoming increasingly severe.
Ye Xuan could resolutely affirm that it wouldn’t be long before the Undying Heavenly Lord returned, and he must open the Tenth Heavenly Gate with the utmost speed to face the Supre lethal intent.
Heavenly Emperor Palace!
This was a palace personally overseen and built by Huang and Gu Beichen, also established as a dojo for Ye Xuan. It was nad Heavenly Emperor Palace because back in the Primordial World, Ye Xuan was the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court.
In the eyes of the two, the title of Heavenly Emperor was the most fitting for Ye Xuan.
Inside the Heavenly Emperor Palace.
The halls were without a roof, the stars filled the sky.
Ye Xuan sat cross-legged in the void, with the light of Heavenly Burial Reincarnation swirling around him. The Nine Heavenly Gates behind him buzzed and spun as he examined his own cultivation.
One step!
Just one last step!
Ye Xuan was only one step away from opening the Tenth Heavenly Gate, but this final step genuinely troubled him.
Sigh!
Ye Xuan slowly exhaled a breath of impure air, and he gradually opened his eyes, the Nine Heavenly Gates behind him slowly dissipating, his eyes filled with heaviness.
Resources!
Cultivation Resources!
To advance this last step and open the Tenth Heavenly Gate, the required cultivation resources were unimaginably vast.
"Damn it!"
Ye Xuan’s gaze was grim, and a long sigh escaped his lips; if the Life-taking Technique had succeeded, he wouldn’t be in such a quandary.
Yet, Ye Xuan also clearly understood that he was neither the chosen one of heaven nor a person with extraordinary fortune.
The Life-taking Technique only had a fifty-percent success rate, so failure was naturally within reason; if it weren’t for his clone taking the fall for him, perhaps he would have died long ago.
What to do?
This final step left Ye Xuan extrely troubled; the cultivation resources he required were simply beyond imagination, and even exhausting the entire strength of a Great Sect wouldn’t be enough for him to break through.
"No other choice, it has to be done like this." Ye Xuan murmured, a trace of brutality flashing through his eyes.
Since the Life-taking Technique failed, the only way for him to quickly open the Tenth Heavenly Gate was to plunder, to pillage recklessly.
He needed to open the Tenth Heavenly Gate before the Undying Heavenly Lord returned, so that he could truly face the invincible forces through the ages.
On this day, Gu Beichen and Huang were summoned into the Heavenly Emperor Palace, along with Li Taichu and Jun Wushuang by Ye Xuan.
Half a day passed.
The four of them exited the Heavenly Emperor Palace simultaneously, with orders issuing from their mouths in unison.
First!
The first order was for all cultivation resources of the Northern Territory Heavenly Court to be delivered to the Heavenly Emperor Palace.
Second order, all cultivators above the Wendao Three Realm in the Northern Territory Heavenly Court would transform into eight forces, led by eight Immortal Realm leaders, to proceed out of the Northern Territory Heavenly Court for the purpose of sect extermination and looting madly the cultivation resources of these sects and Great Sects.
Third order, Huang personally to the Jiqing Heavenly Palace to deliver Ye Xuan’s handwritten letter.
The final order, Li Taichu and Jun Wushuang leading teams, each with four Immortals, setting off in two directions towards so top Great Sects in the Central Domain.
Instantly, the entire Northern Territory Heavenly Court was set in motion, and the movent of the Northern Territory Heavenly Court imdiately destabilized the entire Central Domain.
Slaughter!
Massacre!
Extermination!
The movent of the Northern Territory Heavenly Court caused surrounding sects and Great Sects to be completely slaughtered, with the Northern Territory Heavenly Court’s people frantically looting their cultivation resources and continuously sending them back to the Northern Territory Heavenly Court.
Ye Xuan’s idea was simple; since the Life-taking Technique failed, he needed to quickly open the Tenth Heavenly Gate, only by accumulating endless cultivation resources.
The cultivation resources accumulated over the years by the Northern Territory Heavenly Court were simply insufficient, leaving him with no choice but to command people to exterminate sects and loot these sects’ cultivation resources for his own use.
Inside the Heavenly Emperor Palace!
The Northern Territory Heavenly Court’s accumulated cultivation resources over the years piled up like a mountain in front of Ye Xuan, with the vast amount of Spiritual Objects transforming into abundant Spiritual Energy, which Ye Xuan devoured.
Ye Xuan’s cultivation gradually increased, step by step advancing towards the Tenth Heavenly Gate.
