Year 90 of the Great Mystic Calendar, spring.
Northern County, capital of the Divine Dynasty.
A pillar of spiritual Qi swept across the sky. The terrifying aura of the Yang God realm enveloped it, causing all the citizens of the capital to tremble.
On the long street paved with limestone in the capital, soldiers clad in silver armor were running at high speed. The clanging sounds produced by their armor as they ran shook their eardrums.
Yin gods wrapped in black robes floated in the air, their black robes fluttering in the wind.
The sky was gloomy, and cold rain fell.
The crown prince had rebelled.
The entire imperial capital was sealed off. All these years, the power that the crown prince had secretly nurtured rapidly emerged from every corner of the imperial capital and took over everything in the Great Xuan Imperial Palace.
He was not the only one standing behind the crown prince. What kind of existence was the human emperor? He had established the Divine dynasty for ninety years and reigned for ninety years. The world was managed in an orderly manner, with order and stability, and society was harmonious.
Who would be disrespectful to such a human emperor?
However, there would be benefits for others. Moreover… in ninety years, the human emperor was old.
The human emperor could not cultivate, so he was different from cultivators. His lifespan was constantly being used up, and he was already very old.
Back then, Tantai Xuan, who was full of energy and had swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger, was like a lion that was approaching the end of its life.
This was perhaps the tragedy that existed when mortals were compared to cultivators.
The crown prince could not wait any longer. He waited year after year. He did not dare to cultivate because if he wanted to become the human emperor, he could not cultivate. This was a rule. It was a rule set by the white jade capital. He did not dare to break it.
Although the white jade capital had been reclusive ever since the establishment of the Great Xuan Dynasty and the Crown Prince had only heard of the White Jade Capital when he was born, it did not stop him from being respectful to the White Jade Capital.
He had heard too many myths about the white jade capital.
Although there were only a few people in the first Holy Land of the five phoenixes, even the great Xuan dynasty could not withstand a single blow in front of the white jade capital.
Therefore, the crown prince did not cultivate, and he, who did not cultivate, was also old.
Year after year, he waited from the age of 20 to 30, and from 30 to 50.
And now that he was sixty-eight, he could not wait any longer.
The crown prince wore a black imperial robe and a jade crown on his head. This was what he had worn during the grand ceremony of the Tantai Xuanli dynasty.
His expression was serious as he walked step by step.
Behind him, ten Yin Gods and one Yang God realm expert landed on the ground.
They were about to meet the human emperor. Even if it was an old human emperor, they did not dare to fly.
They walked all the way to the palace.
There was an old scholar standing on the stone stairs with an angry expression, scolding the crown prince.
Treason was a heinous crime, and the Crown Prince’s treason was even more heinous.
However, the crown prince did not care.
In the Great Xuan dynasty, not all ministers were cultivators. After all, cultivation depended on talent. Some ministers could not enter the body snatching realm in their entire lives, so their lifespan was limited.
The requirements of the human emperor for the officials were mainly based on ability, ability to govern, and ability to administer. Strength was not important to him.
The crown prince waved his hand.
The Yin God realm expert shot out and stretched out his hand to capture. Spiritual Energy turned into a palm and grabbed at the scholar.
“Filthy bastard! Don’t Touch Me!”
The scholar shouted, and his spiritual energy palm exploded!
However, he was still powerless and was pulled down by the Yin God realm expert.
The crown prince did not dare to kill these great scholars because these great scholars were from the Haoran sect..
Mo Ju went into seclusion and the river seeped into the ancient tomb..
Back then, the human emperor’s right-hand man, Xue Tao, was also heard to have died. The Human Emperor relied on his own dragon qi and did not pay much attention to the arrangements of the guards around him. The strongest guards were only at the nascent soul realm.
The crown prince was very confident this time.
Rumble!
The tightly shut door of the palace slowly opened.
The Yang God expert stood quietly beside the crown prince while the Ten Yin God realm experts charged in.
The palace was bleeding and the corpses of the guards were all over the ground. The pure white stone stairs seemed to have been painted with a layer of blood-colored ink.
Finally, they reached the deep palace.
The last palace, the palace where the human emperor had shut the door.
The crown prince walked and waved his sleeves as he bowed.
“Father, you’re old. It’s time for you to rest.”
The crown prince said in a clear voice.
However, there was a slight tremble in his voice.
How many years had it been..
He was finally able to sit in that position.
The Lord of the dynasty, what an alluring position!
His voice reverberated in the surroundings. There was a sense of gloom in the silence.
Then, there was a slight cough coming from the deep palace.
Creak.
It was the sound of a wooden door painted red being opened.
Gao Kan walked past, his hair unkempt and disheveled. Tantai Xuan, who was only wearing a casual robe, walked out from within.
Tantai Xuan was old and his face was full of wrinkles. His entire person had also become a little thin and weak. He had lost his former valiance.
However, he was very calm. He had his hands behind his back, and there was a hint of depth in his aged eyes.
He looked in the direction of the Eastern Sea. Then, he slowly retracted his gaze and slowly sighed.
“The passing of time.”
“This king is also old. The people around me… have mostly disappeared.”
Tantai Xuan shook his head.
When one was old, there would always be some nostalgia. The last radiance of the Great Zhou emperor, Yuwen Xiu, suddenly appeared in his mind.
However, he was different from Yu Wenxiu. He worked diligently and diligently. He believed himself to be a good emperor.
On the other hand, Yu Wenxiu practiced tyranny. He fed human lives to the black dragon. He might not be a good emperor.
However, Tantai Xuan actually felt that in his later years, his fate was somewhat similar to Yu Wenxiu’s.
“Your Majesty!”
In the crowd, great scholars covered in blood rushed out. Tears flowed down their faces as they knelt on the ground.
These scholars were filled with grief. Some of them even glared at the crown prince.
Their fingers pointed at the crown prince as they trembled in fear.
They were actually very disappointed because they had a part to play in electing the Crown Prince back then.
However, the Crown Prince’s actions today had struck deep into their hearts.
“Pull him down!”
The crown prince’s expression turned cold as he ordered.
A light flashed.
The Yin God expert rushed out like a gust of wind, wanting to take all of these scholars away.
These scholars were furious. “Don’t touch this old man!”
The strong old men continued to struggle, some even wanting to crash to death on the spot.
Tantai Xuan looked at these old ministers who were supporting him and couldn’t help but smile.
It was different.
He was still different from Yuwen Xiu. In his life, he might not have gotten any decent immortal fate, but compared to those who cultivated in seclusion, he had lived a much more vigorous life.
His gaze looked at the old ministers with some gentleness.
He raised his head and could vaguely hear the chanting of the people kneeling on the Long Street.
Many of the old people knelt on the long street with the help of their families, scolding the crown prince angrily.
Tantai Xuan smiled.
The crown prince was a little angry.
Because, from the moment Tantai Xuan walked out of the palace until now, he did not even look at him.
“Father!”
The crown prince raised his voice.
“How Can You Face His Majesty!”
An old minister cursed at the Crown Prince. His spittle was about to spray onto the crown prince’s face.
“Shut up!”
The crown prince was furious and his face was red.
“Kill him!”
The crown prince waved his hand and said coldly.
“Whoever is obstructing and cursing, kill them all!”
The crown prince shouted.
The Yin gods behind him all flashed with afterimages and raised their hands to clasp the necks of these old officials.
Tantai Xuan finally set his gaze on the crown prince.
“You have disappointed me too much.”
Tantai Xuan said.
He shook his head regretfully.
“Are you really prepared to be an emperor?”
“Are you really prepared to take over a divine dynasty?”
Tantai Xuan asked.
The crown prince’s breathing quickened.
However, Tantai Xuan did not give the crown prince a chance to speak.
His gaze swept over and landed on the Yang God expert wrapped in a black robe, as well as the many Yin God realm experts.
“You are not young master Lu. Who gave you the courage to meddle in the affairs of the Divine Dynasty as cultivators…”
Tantai Xuan smiled and said.
His hoarse voice lingered in the air, causing the expressions of many cultivators to change.
“Let go of these old fellows.”
Tantai Xuan said.
In the next moment, Tantai Xuan took a step forward.
Boom!
Majestic Dragon Qi surged from his body.
However, the human emperor’s Dragon Qi had already declined. It no longer had the terrifying might that had exceeded a thousand feet.
“Father… Your Dragon Qi is no longer the same as before. You are really old!”
The crown prince said.
He turned his head and spoke to the Yang God realm expert behind him.
“Your Majesty, I have offended you.”
The Yang God realm expert wrapped in a black robe bowed to Tantai Xuan.
In the next moment, his body suddenly shot out. Powerful spiritual sense fluctuations and spiritual qi fluctuations caused the entire imperial capital to stir up a terrifying vortex of spiritual qi.
This yang God realm expert transformed into a streak of light and rapidly charged towards Tantai Xuan.
Tantai Xuan laughed out loud.
He took a big step forward, glared at him and shouted.
It was like Rolling Thunder.
This yang God realm expert coughed up blood and stepped on several bricks.
He was extremely shocked. He didn’t expect that the old human emperor could still make him bleed.
After Tantai Xuan shouted, his Dragon Qi was withdrawn and he was like a piece of rotten wood. He looked at the Yang God realm expert who was bleeding and shook his head.
“Sigh, I’m still old…”
“If it was back then, a mouthful of spit and nails would have been enough to turn you into ashes.”
Tantai Xuan smiled and looked at the Crown Prince.
“Do you know why there are fewer and fewer people around me? I’m the one who sent them away…”
“I originally wanted to attract that evil cult Liu Yuanhao to make a move and clear the obstacles in my later years to give you a stable throne. I didn’t expect that the one who made a move was the crown prince of the Divine Dynasty…”
“Using cultivators to deal with me. You’re so stupid. Why would I make you the crown prince in the first place?”
“You could have at least chosen to persuade many of the ministers to come and persuade me… I’m already tired. It’s your ability to persuade many of the ministers. I might have given up the throne.”
Tantai Xuan said a lot of things.
Perhaps it was because he was getting old that he became more and more naggy.
However, the crown prince’s expression changed slightly.
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but there was no turning back.
“Do… Do It!”
The crown prince hurriedly shouted.
His heart started to feel an inexplicable fear.
Tantai Xuan sat down on the stone steps.
What kind of scene was this? He didn’t care at all.
When he was young, what great storms had he not seen?
Boom!
That Yang God realm’s expression froze, and he instantly moved.
He turned into a streak of light, and several Yin God realm cultivators quickly attacked as well.
Another yang God realm cultivator who was hiding in the imperial capital was summoned by the crown prince, and he also quickly took action.
He was the trump card left behind by the crown prince, but he did not expect to be used so early.
In the entire imperial capital, the sky seemed to change color. A yang God realm cultivator flew into the sky and burrowed into the ground, and he was incomparably powerful!
Rolling spiritual energy surged like a tidal wave.
It swept toward the thin and old human emperor who was sitting on the stone stairs.
The human emperor watched calmly. He fell into deep thought as he watched these cultivators who were attacking.
Countless attacks descended from the sky, as well as the crown prince’s sharp eyes.
However, Tantai Xuan’s heart was as calm as water.
Bang!
A figure appeared beside Tantai Xuan. The crown prince was shocked. wasn’t that Tantai Xuan’s personal guard, Xue Tao?
He was also a Yang God realm expert, Xue Tao!
This person was actually faking his death!
The current Xue Tao had already taken four to five steps in the Yang God realm and was extremely powerful.
However, what was even more shocking was that at some point in time, there was a figure floating in front of Tantai Xuan.
Tall and sturdy, valiant and valiant, his strong hair fluttered in the wind, and his eyes were as deep as the Sea of stars.
This person carried an axe and shield on his back, and the muscles on his upper body were bulging. His feet left the ground and floated silently.
The two Yang God realm experts who were attacking were shocked.
Looking at this person, they actually had an inexplicable sense of familiarity!
For the first time, Tantai Xuan was stunned. He was surprised and surprised. Looking at that familiar yet strange figure, a smile appeared on his old face.
Puff! Puff!
The figure raised his hand without turning his head.
He flicked his finger.
Instantly, a vast power rose and fell like a vast ocean, and everything was collapsing.
“This is… the great power of Primordial Spirit Unity!”
“Damn it! How can there be a great power? !”
“Overlord! This person is overlord Xiliang!”
The two Yang God realm experts who had just taken a step changed their expressions, wanting to escape.
However, before they could turn around.
They were beaten into a bloody mist by the terrifying power.
Their spiritual sense flew out.
The Overlord’s primordial spirit fluctuated, and his spiritual sense was instantly destroyed.
As for those Yin Gods, they were all reduced to dust before they could turn around.
The crown prince did not recognize the overlord. When he was born, the Overlord had been in hiding for a long time.
However, he had heard of the overlord of Xiliang. When he was young, he contended with the human emperor and even suppressed the terrifying existence that the human emperor was fighting.
Ninety years had passed, but the Overlord had not changed in the slightest. In fact, he was even younger, and his aura was more terrifying and powerful.
Plop.
The crown prince fell to the ground, and all the strength in his body was sucked dry.
Almighty..
It turned out that the human emperor’s confidence was in the Almighty.
The overlord looked at Tantai Xuan calmly.
“You are getting old.”
The Overlord spoke.
“You haven’t changed at all.”Tantai Xuan laughed as well.
Back then, the two of them had fought to rule the world. Later on, the Overlord chose to cultivate, but Tantai Xuan still chose the human emperor.
If the Overlord had chosen to be the emperor of the human world back then, he, Tantai Xuan, would not have been involved.
“Do you regret it?”
“If you had chosen to walk the path of cultivation, the current you… would still have a very long lifespan.”
The Overlord looked at the old Tantai Xuan with a complicated expression. The conversation between the two of them was like a casual conversation between friends.
“Regret? Xiang Shaoyun, my life is much more exciting than yours. You brought your little wife and cultivated bitterly for decades. How could it be more interesting than this king ruling over the entire world?”
“I definitely don’t regret it. I just have some regrets.”
Tantai Xuan laughed.
“Regret what?”
The Overlord was stunned.
“I’ve never experienced the taste of immortal destiny ever since the immortal palace in Wolong Ridge… It’s all the fault of this damn immortal destiny insulator. It’s a pity that I can’t experience the taste of immortal destiny in this life.”
Tantai Xuan slapped his knees and scolded jokingly.
Even the unsmiling overlord couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth.
“Actually, you don’t have to come. This is a small problem that I can solve.”
Tantai Xuan looked at the Overlord and smiled.
“I’m just here to see an old friend,”the Overlord said.
Then, he turned around and glanced at the crown prince. The crown prince was filled with fear.
Powerful cultivators were terrifying existences that gave birth to the primordial spirit and could destroy an army with a single thought.
The overlord raised his hand and gently pressed down.
Boom!
The army that the crown prince brought into the capital all coughed up blood and fell to the ground, their expressions filled with shock.
The expressions of the many cultivation families outside the city changed in fear as they frantically fled.
Outside the city, the sound of horse hooves exploded.
The black tortoise guards flew over and rushed into the imperial capital like a flood.
Mo Ju’s feather clothes and feather fan fluttered as he floated over.
One by one, the Great Xuan Academy’s cultivation students stepped onto the imperial capital’s Long Street and headed for the palace.
Mo Beike and Tang Xiansheng arrived in a flying carriage.
On the official road, there were sloppy scholars drinking and laughing as they walked.
In the imperial capital, a young man dressed in a lotus robe appeared. Behind him was a slim and graceful young lady.
On this day, the entire great xuan imperial capital shone brightly and great cultivators arrived one after another.
Everyone was stunned. Many aristocratic families and cultivation powers seemed to be in a dream. It was as if the Great Xuan dynasty had been established once again.
The crown prince’s entire body went cold. Only now did he realize that his rebellion was a joke.
When it came to the power of cultivators, the human emperor was far superior to him.
The Crown Prince’s rebellion failed. However, anyone who did not immediately give the order to kill the Crown Prince only abolished his position and exiled him to the Western Desert.
Although the human emperor was old, he was still alive.
After another five years, the Dragon Qi of the human emperor gradually dimmed as if it had been extinguished.
The human emperor began to compile the Great Xuan Law, which stated that cultivators were not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Great Xuan Dynasty. All the officials of the Great Xuan dynasty were not allowed to exceed their cultivation levels.
When this news was released, the entire world was in an uproar. The people were happy, and many officials were indignant.
However, the human emperor began to implement this law vigorously. Other than those great scholars and officials who specialized in cultivating the Great Spirit, all the officials with strong cultivation levels were replaced. From the feet of the emperor to the villages, all the officials were replaced.
When this law was fully implemented, the Dragon Qi of the human emperor disappeared, and a human emperor fell.
Great Xuan calendar year 95, winter.
The emperor appointed the fifth Prince as the crown prince.
In the dark and cold inner courtyard of the palace.
Mo Ju’s feather fan swayed gently as he stood quietly at the head of the bed.
Tantai Xuan lay on the bed. He was old, weak, and his gaze was unfocused.
The Dragon Qi that was once a thousand feet long was now extremely thin.
He looked at the snow fluttering outside the window, and his face trembled slightly.
“Oh, the law, how is it?”
Tantai Xuan asked.
“Your Majesty, everything has been arranged according to your instructions.”
Mo Ju said.
Tantai Xuan smiled.
In the next moment, his gaze actually burst out with brilliance and sharpness.
“Spreading a thousand Zhang of Dragon Qi to protect the divine dynasty, half to protect the people of the world, and the other half to protect the officials. If cultivators violate the officials, they will be transformed by dragon qi into karmic fire, burning their spiritual sense, regressing their cultivation, and even… dying.”
Tantai Xuan stared at the void and said solemnly, word by word.
“I implore young master Lu… to allow it.”
Suddenly.
Outside the window, the wind and snow stopped.
The world seemed to have become silent.
A gentle voice sounded in Tantai Xuan’s ears.
“As you wish.”
Roar!
Tantai Xuan’s body, which was lying on the bed, trembled. In the next moment, Golden Dragon Qi soared into the sky. All the Dragon Qi was stripped from his body, and he could no longer maintain his vitality.
The Dragon Qi roared and meandered into the sky.
Mo Ju’s body trembled, and his eyes fluctuated violently. The feather fan in his hand was actually broken by him.
On this day, someone saw the sky of the imperial capital. The Dragon Qi soared into the sky and dispersed in the nine heavens, protecting the world.
On this day.
The Human Emperor slept forever.
..
He slowly closed his eyes. When he opened them again, it was only for a moment.
Tantai Xuan, who thought that he was already dead, found that he was actually floating in the sky, floating above the vast sea. In the distance, the immortal island carried by the giant whale appeared before his eyes.
On the island.
A white-clothed youth placed a chess piece on the board and nodded slightly at him.
