The Ancient Emperor!

Inside the Tianming Sect.

On the martial arts field.

An old man dressed in a pure white robe quietly stepped forward from the void, surrounded by spiritual energy.

Upon closer inspection, this spiritual energy was fundamentally different from that of other cultivators.

Another old man seemed to have white hair, but his spirit appeared to be much stronger than the former.

Unlike an old man, he was more like a middle-aged man in his prime.

Although no spiritual energy could be seen on his body, every move he made revealed an abundance of immortal intent.

The two slowly descended from the void, only to see that Ji Xin had already struck a pose, sitting upright on the martial arts field.

He slowly opened his eyes only after hearing the sounds of the two, and in an instant, the aura of ancient immortals swept across the entire martial arts field.

If Lin Huaian were here, he probably couldn’t help but lament: My master is so pretentious.

It’s purely good luck that he’s lived to this day.

“I am Ji Xin, the sect leader of the Tianming Sect,” Ji Xin stood up with slow, graceful movements, appearing dignified and courteous, yet not losing his own aura of looking down upon all living beings.

“Long time no see, I have missed you greatly, Senior Wang Qi.”

The old man, who had no spiritual energy on his body, raised his eyes.

Although he was old, his eyes were bright.

He was now fully two hundred years old, but instead of appearing old and weak, his realm was becoming more and more terrifying.

The other one was naturally the Holy Lord of the Lu Xing Holy Land, Nan Tian.

Seeing that there was no one else around, Nan Tian directly got to the point: “Sect Leader Ji Xin, you understand the purpose of Senior Wang Qi and me.

The Myriad Tribulation Lightning Cloud that just now shook all the holy lands.

Could you let us meet this sword immortal?”

Wang Qi did not speak.

His mere presence here was a huge core.

The entire world seemed to be attracted by him.

Even Lin Huaian, who had walked far away, had to turn his head back, lamenting that it was fortunate that he ran fast.

Otherwise, wouldn’t he be kicked out of the sect at the speed of light if he were caught by such a powerful figure?

Faced with the expectant and even somewhat threatening gazes of the two, Ji Xin smiled slightly and said,

“I’m sorry, the newly awakened congenital sword ancestor body of our sect has already been sent back to her family by our Tianming elders to inform them of this good news.”

Wang Qi’s eyes flashed, while Nan Tian frowned.

The former, as possibly the strongest cultivator in the entire Holy Yan Dynasty, had been in seclusion for a hundred years but forcibly broke through his closed-door cultivation for this newly born sword immortal.

The latter was even more so.

As the Holy Lord of the Lu Xing Holy Land, he was busy with countless affairs every day, working with the imperial family to plan and organize.

He was usually high above.

Yet now, these two were willing to put everything aside to seek an audience with the sword immortal, but Ji Xin was telling them they couldn’t?

Nan Tian wanted to flare up, perhaps even using Wang Qi’s name to put down the Tianming Sect.

But at this moment, Ji Xin’s tone suddenly changed: “Because the truth is not as simple as you two think!”

Wang Qi spoke in the silence: “I observe opportunity and found that Tianming has two strands of heavenly destiny.

Now, one strand has erupted without warning, and judging from its intensity, it seems no weaker than a reincarnation of an immortal.

In fact, it is even more ferocious than an immortal.

Perhaps his previous life was a Sword Dao Immortal Venerable.”

This immortal senior looked at Ji Xin and said in a deep voice, “You said that this sword immortal is a congenital sword ancestor body, which means that something impacted her to awaken her.”

“As expected of Senior Wang Qi, knowledgeable and experienced, even able to discern the aura of heavenly destiny,” Ji Xin hummed in his heart, thinking that since there were two strands, one was Si Qingxue, and the other was naturally Lin Huaian?

With Wang Qi’s words as a guarantee, Ji Xin immediately had more confidence in Lin Huaian’s future.

“Then I, Ji, will make a long story short.”

He cleared his throat: “This time, the awakening of the sword body was actually my disciple Huaian…”

“Wait?” Nan Tian was instantly stunned after hearing the name Lin Huaian.

“Lin Huaian? Isn’t he crippled?!”

Ji Xin knew that Nan Tian would care about this.

He was secretly delighted, but he didn’t show it on his face.

Instead, he looked at Nan Tian with a slightly blaming expression, making Nan Tian confused for a moment, as if he was the one who had made a mistake.

“Holy Lord Nan Tian is still too shallow in his cultivation.

Little does he know that Huaian is a person with great heavenly destiny.

What is a calamity?” Ji Xin said sternly, “My Huaian has the posture of a great emperor!”

After hearing this sentence, the first reaction of the Holy Lord Nan Tian was that Ji Xin was fooling him, definitely fooling him.

But upon closer thought, Ji Xin had no reason to fool him, because this kind of thing could definitely be exposed easily.

Not to mention the sect event half a month later, if he really wanted to investigate the truth, he could just call Lin Huaian in front of them on the spot, right?

Thinking of this, Nan Tian’s pupils shrank sharply, because Lin Huaian was actually able to escape from the calamity of heavenly destiny?

This was simply more of a chosen one than the chosen one!

Wang Qi had been in a state of closed-door cultivation before, so he didn’t know who Lin Huaian was, but seeing Nan Tian’s shocked look at this moment, he understood a little.

So he said to Ji Xin, “Continue to speak.”

Ji Xin straightened his body slightly, and the horsetail whisk in his arms danced lightly.

In fact, he didn’t know how to use the horsetail whisk at all.

Holding this thing was just to look more like an immortal, but at this moment, this horsetail whisk did add a lot of temperament to him.

“Huaian, after being brought back to the sect by me, came to the martial arts field and used an ordinary iron sword to draw a sword intent containing his life’s insights, directly helping that disciple awaken the congenital sword ancestor body,” Ji Xin said seriously.

“Therefore, the strong one is not the sword immortal, but Huaian.”

“Impossible, how is it possible!” After hearing this, Nan Tian directly denied it without hesitation.

“Lin Huaian has never been exposed to swordsmanship in his life, and the Heaven-blessed Ancient Holy Body has nothing to do with swordsmanship.

How could he comprehend sword intent!”

Wang Qi did not speak, because he remembered that there were indeed such existences in the world.

They were natural sword immortals, some were reincarnations of immortal venerables, and some were born to become immortals.

But these two were too few, especially the latter, really too few.

There were definitely less than ten who had appeared in the vast history of the human race.

“I won’t lie to you, because all of this was witnessed by tens of thousands of inner disciples of my Tianming Sect!” Ji Xin said in a shocking voice, his awe-inspiring righteousness shaking the heavens and the earth, causing Nan Tian to stop again, “Huaian is a natural sword immortal.

His sword intent is hidden in every corner of his life, waiting to gather and condense.

Unfortunately, in order to make that disciple rise, he forcibly extracted the sword intent he had accumulated for eighteen years.

This kind of selfless feat is really commendable and praiseworthy…”

Nan Tian was also dumbfounded.

Are you sure there’s nothing wrong with your brain, Ji Xin?

Which of these things you said has anything to do with Lin Huaian?

He is clearly a well-known immortal scum of the Ten Holy Lands?

“Huaian has already gone back to rest, and the sword cultivator is also busy returning to her family.

Moreover, I want to give you two something else to experience.” Ji Xin said mysteriously.

Nan Tian quickly reacted: “You want to show us Lin Huaian’s sword intent?”

“Naturally.”

“Where is the sword intent?” Nan Tian became excited all of a sudden.

As the Lord of the Holy Land, he had naturally experienced countless things in his life, but the sword intent that could awaken the congenital sword ancestor body, Nan Tian had never even heard of it in his life.

Ji Xin smiled slightly: “It is right in front of you two.”

Nan Tian and Wang Qi both lowered their heads and then discovered a very inconspicuous three-inch scratch.

“…”

Nan Tian was silent.

He really wanted to convince himself that this thing that looked like the owner didn’t have the strength to hold the sword and just randomly drew it was the sword intent in Ji Xin’s mouth, but he really couldn’t do it.

“Ji Xin, you…”

Just when Nan Tian felt that Ji Xin was playing tricks on him –

“What a strong aura.”

Nan Tian was stunned, because Wang Qi’s eyes were actually extremely bright at this time, as dazzling as the midday sun.

Wang Qi looked at this sword mark, his breathing suddenly became rapid.

He closed his eyes, and in the darkness, a mountain and sea map actually emerged.

The earth cracked in the chaos, the river dried up, the sea surged, all the beasts and the human race died in blood and plague, and a monster that could stand in the clouds with a raised beast claw roared.

The sea water poured back, the sky and the earth tilted, and just as it was about to destroy everything, a wisp of ancient aura slowly penetrated from the void, and in an instant, it covered the entire world!

“I am not a bloodthirsty person,” a golden-eyed man appeared in Wang Qi’s sight with supreme Dao laws.

Although it was just a back view, Wang Qi could already guess the true identity of the other party.

“But, you should not overstep.”

In an instant, the ancient aura swept away the devilish aura.

The man’s body was constantly surrounded by Dao laws and incantations.

With a wave of his hand, the monster’s limbs were broken.

As he advanced, the monster begged for mercy desperately.

As he held the origin law, the monster’s wailing resounded throughout the world.

“I will use the supreme law,” he said softly, “to make you pay for everything.”

Wang Qi was completely shocked, but at the last moment, the man seemed to notice him.

Supreme Dao laws gathered on his body, covering him in the void.

“You must not tell anyone about everything today, otherwise the destiny will be exhausted.”

The picture disappeared.

Wang Qi’s thoughts returned to reality.

He stared at this sword mark, feeling the familiar and terrifying aura on it, and finally couldn’t help but say, “This is… this is…”

He couldn’t say that name, and he couldn’t tell anyone what he had just seen, otherwise the destiny would strangle and retaliate against him.

Only he could know who the man he had just seen was –

That was the invincible man who rose in troubled times and killed all over the world.

That was the true immortal who created the Great Dao and killed this endless cycle.

That was the synonym for the Dao of Heaven and the creator of the Heaven-blessed Ancient Holy Body.

That was…

The Ancient Emperor!
