Chapter 705: Ninth Realm of the Martial Dao (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The establishment of the dynasty was to prevent the next ninth realm of the Martial Dao from appearing. For example, in the ownerless era after the destruction of the Great Wu Empire, there was no limit to the number of ninth realm martial artists. At this moment, everyone had a chance to reach the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.
However, once the first ninth realm appeared, this ninth-stage martial artist would immediately establish a new dynasty and create a new era. From there, he would become the only ninth-stage martial artist in the Tianwu Continent.
It would prevent more ninth realm martial artists from being born. This was because there was only one ninth-stage martial artist on the Tianwu Continent. Only then would he be truly invincible and the true strongest!
“Then how can one reach the ninth realm of the Martial Dao?” Xiao Shi continued to ask.
However, he did not expect the other party to answer this question. This was because this question had already exceeded the exchange of information between him and the other party. It could be considered the third information.
Heavenly King Yao Xi shook her head. “The end of every martial artist is different. Therefore, the way every demigod breaks through to the ninth realm is different. This kind of breakthrough method is not fixed, but depends on each martial artist’s own situation.
“However, even in the ownerless era, there will not be many ninth-level martial artists at the same time. There will only be one ninth-level martial artist. Of course, if this ninth-level martial artist doesn’t establish a new dynasty or start a new era, a second ninth-level martial artist might appear after a period of time.
“However, in the history of the Tianwu Continent, such a situation has never happened before.
Xiao Shi nodded slightly. He knew that Heavenly King Yao Xi had already said a lot of additional information. The other party had basically explained in greater detail all the information he wanted to know.
The reason why she did so was because the other party had the intention to befriend him. After all, with the powerful information that the Heavenly Mystery Palace had, even the Great Wu Empire at its peak was far inferior.
If she could be on good terms with the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, this was definitely a good thing for Heavenly King Yao Xi.
Xiao Shi could also sense the sincerity of Heavenly King Yao Xi. So he told the other party directly. “The current fate of the Great Wu Empire is indeed in the hands of the Sage who controls the Fifth Domain.”
He did not choose to lie to the other party. Because he knew that this kind of deception was meaningless. Even if he told Heavenly King Yao Xi that the fate of the Great Wu Empire was not on him, the other party would still plot against his Fifth Domain and would not let him off.
This kind of deception would instead lower the credibility of his identity as the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. It would be difficult to obtain any information from the other party in the future. In any case, there was no harm in telling the other party the truth.
As long as he continued to stay in his domain, no matter how tempted these demigod Heavenly Kings were to the Great Wu Empire, it was impossible for them to snatch it away from him. Instead, Xiao Shi felt that letting these demigod Heavenly Kings know that he had such a bargaining chip would more or less make them worry about him.
Since Heavenly King Yao Xi had the intention to be on good terms with him, he felt that it would be beneficial to him to be on good terms with her as the palace master. Much information that he could not come into contact with could be obtained from Heavenly King Yao Xi.
It was equivalent to being able to control the enemy’s movements at any time with another identity.
In fact, when he broke through to become a Daolord and opened the last area of the Heavenly Mystery Hall, he could even make some transactions with Heavenly King Yao Xi through the Heavenly Mystery Box.
After Heavenly King Yao Xi received an affirmative answer from Xiao Shi, her exquisite brows immediately furrowed. Although she had expected this beforehand, she could not help but feel troubled after confirming it now.
Facing the Nine-Dragons Heavenly Formation, she was helpless.
“Do you have a way to break the Nine Dragons Heavenly Formation?” Heavenly King Yao Xi could only ask Xiao Shi for help.
“Unless you can reach the ninth realm of martial arts, the Nine Dragons Heavenly Formation is unsolvable!” Xiao Shi said directly.
Heavenly King Yao Xi frowned even more. She was still a little indignant. “Then can you find out what weaknesses this Sage in charge of the Fifth Domain has? For example, who in the Tianwu Continent does he care about? Or is there anything he especially craves?”
She was clearly trying to threaten and tempt him! Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes at this. He could tell that Heavenly King Yao Xi really wanted to obtain the fortune of the Great Wu Empire. “Since you’ve provided me with so much information this time, let me give you a piece of advice. It’s best not to have any ideas about this person.
“I’ve specially investigated this Sage who controls the Fifth Domain. Although this person is only a Sage, he’s unfathomable. Even when I probed it with the power of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, I didn’t obtain any information. This is a situation that won’t happen to demigod Heavenly Kings like you!”
“1 suspect— there might be some ancient mighty figures behind this person. Unless you reach the ninth realm of the Martial Dao, it’s best not to provoke him.”
No matter what, Xiao Shi decided to scare her first. He believed that the words of the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace would definitely be taken seriously.
As expected, after hearing his words, the expression of Heavenly King Yao Xi immediately turned solemn. If it was anyone else who said this, she might not believe it. However, since these words came from the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, then she would have no doubts.
Moreover, from her own feelings, she also felt that Xiao Shi was not as simple as an ordinary Sage.
“That’s all for now. You can come to Heavenly Mystery City anytime in the future.” Xiao Shi pointed at Heavenly King Yao Xi from afar. A black Heavenly Mystery Mask gathered on her face.
He officially let Heavenly King Yao Xi join the Heavenly Mystery Palace and become a member of it. He was not worried that Heavenly King Yao Xi would pose any threat to him after becoming a member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace.
Even if the other party was a demigod, she would be no different from an ordinary person in the Heavenly Mystery City. One of the special things about Heavenly Mystery City was that it allowed everyone who entered Heavenly Mystery City to not have any difference in strength and cultivation.
Even existences at the ninth realm of the Martial Dao would be like everyone else after entering Heavenly Mystery City. They would be unable to bring their strength and cultivation in the real world into Heavenly Mystery City.
Therefore, even if Heavenly King Yao Xi became a member of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, Xiao Shi was not worried about inviting a wolf into his house.
In addition, the other party was only an ordinary member. The core secrets of the Heavenly Mystery Palace were far from what the other party could come into contact with. In Heavenly Mystery City, Xiao Shi could control her at will.
“Thank you!” After Heavenly King Yao Xi thanked him, she was teleported out of the hall with Xiao Shi’s wave.
Xiao Shi was very satisfied with the information he had obtained from Heavenly King Yao Xi. It had to be said that the identity of the Palace Master was extremely useful! This identity could completely speak to the three demigod Heavenly Kings as equals.
Even Heavenly King Yao Xi had slightly lowered her stance this time. And with his status as the fourth Heavenly King, the three demigod Heavenly Kings looked down on him.
Through his identity as the Palace Master of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, not only could Xiao Shi obtain important information from Heavenly King Yao Xi, but he could also guide the other party to a certain extent.
If not for his interaction with Heavenly King Yao Xi, it would have been very difficult for him to obtain such important information. Especially the information about the ninth realm of the Martial Dao.
Xiao Shi believed that in the current Tianwu Continent, only the three demigod Heavenly Kings knew this information. However, this also made him even more puzzled.
According to Heavenly King Yao Xi, since the Martial Emperor was the only ninth realm martial artist in the Great Martial Era, how did he die? Logically speaking, the Martial Emperor was already the strongest in the world. It was impossible for anyone else to threaten him. Yet the Martial Emperor had died.
This was very bizarre.
Moreover, from the years when the Great Wu Empire was established, the Martial Emperor died before he even lived for 10,000 years. Even if his lifespan was exhausted, he would not only have such a short lifespan. After all, the lifespan of a Sage alone could reach more than 100,000 years.
The lifespan of a ninth-level martial artist could not be only a few thousand years.
There was clearly a huge problem!
