Imperial God Emperor (Web Novel)

Chapter 1176, Immortal gold dropped from the sky

After hundreds of years, there was finally the appearance of a present age Martial Emperor, and not only one. At the same time, the Azure Cloud Platform was about to reopen, and King Zhenyuan would soon step onto the Azure Cloud Platform. When these two pieces of news spread out, the whole Guardian Royal City was almost boiling, like salt sprinkled into a hot pan of oil.

Either of these two news was enough to cause turmoil in the entire Dark Realm, let alone the fact that these two news had appeared at the same time, leaving many of the great aristocrats feeling a little numb after hearing it.

Of course, numbness did not mean that they were unsurprised by the unexpected.

It was just that the consequences of the news was just too great that it had to be digested slowly.

And in this process, the [Military Judge of the Nine Swords] Zhang Longcheng was undoubtedly a core factor. Many important aristocrats and many people looked back at the causes and processes that set off the storm in the Royal City, and were surprised to find that the stormy waves, from beginning to end, were related to the person that the aristocrats call country bumpkin.

To be more precise, everything was actively and intentionally pushed forward and created by that country bumpkin.

And now, it looked like this country bumpkin had gotten carried away and finally brought about his death. No one believed that he would win against King Zhenyuan in the showdown on the Azure Cloud Platform.

Although he had again and again created miracles in Royal City, made the eyeballs of countless people pop out, and made all forces take notice of him and have a whole new level of admiration and respect for him, this time, almost everyone, as they did before the beginning of every incident, thought that he would lose, suffer an utter defeat.

Because this time, Zhang Longcheng's opponent was King Zhenyuan.

He could be said to be the King of martial arts legends in Royal City for thousands of years.

Many people thought that, if King Zhenyuan were willing to let go of things of no value and concentrate fully on cultivation, he would be someone highly likely to enter the boundary of Martial Emperor.

It was no exaggeration to say that Zhang Longcheng was playing with fire every time, and in the end had gone too far.

All sorts of discussions, like wildfire, were burning within Royal City, and with Royal City as the center spread across the major provinces of the Dark Realm.

The current situation was as chaotic as a game of chess.

The world was like wildfire.

……

……

As a person involved, Ye Qingyu evidently was not aware of this.

He was in a very good mood. After returning to the General's residence, he immediately connected to a visual call with the cosmic light brain [The Beginning], and then invited [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] to join in.

The achievements in the civilization of science and technology were very different from formation martial arts. There was not the slightest fluctuation of energy and would not be noticed by the experts in the Royal City. Moreover, there was an immediacy that formation martial arts methods could not achieve. It was incomparably convenient. Regarding the communication aspect, the scientific and technological means also showed great superiority.

Back then, Ye Qingyu had read all ofthe books in the library of the military division, and the books he read were basically all sent to [The Beginning], and with its powerful calculation ability, it was able to obtain a lot of more concrete and specific evaluation.

Adding to this, a few days ago, around the time that King Zhenyuan returned to the capital, Ye Qingyu was incomparably excited to find that he was able to connect to [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei]. It was clear that while Ye Qingyu was arranging his plans, Luoshen Ridge had already established contact with the Fire Province.

Of course, in order to avoid this secret being leaked out from Little Nine’s mouth, for the time being it was only these three people who were connected together. This dog was excluded and did not know the existence of this contact channel.

Ye Qingyu recounted what happened at the east city gate.

“King Zhenyuan is a terrifying opponent. I had perceived his aura before in the Fire Province. He once had the thought of killing me in order to disintegrate the bandit army in the Fire Province. I have clashed with him before, and it was probably because he did not have absolute certainty in winning so he was reluctant to make a move, and ultimately did not do anything.”

[Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] described King Zhenyuan's qi.

Ye Qingyu listened very carefully.

When [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] was in the Vast Thousand Domainsn, he was already almost able to suppress three Quasi-emperors alone, and had reached a very terrifying stage of the Quasi-emperor realm. He disappeared after the battle in the starry sky, and it turned out that he had come to the Dark Realm. Although Ye Qingyu had not seen him in person, he had an intuition that [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei’s] strength must have frantically risen once again.

Since [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei] had personally said that he has clashed with King Zhenyuan, which made King Zhenyuan give up the operation to kill him, then that was enough to show that he most likely had already reached the ninth step of the Quasi-emperor realm.

For existences of their level, even without a battle, they could still perceive their opponent's martial arts and qi from a distance. Therefore, [Quasi-emperor Xiaofei’s] analysis of King Zhenyuan had a huge reference value for Ye Qingyu. The information he gathered must have been much more than what he obtained today during his confrontation with King Zhenyuan above the east city gate.

[The Beginning] was taking notes on one side.

While recording information, it asked the two people a few more questions.

Because it needed to compute and simulate something.

After awakening these days, it had collected countless information on the present age formation martial arts and was currently extrapolating something.

“Although what you have provided is not much, but three months of time should be enough. I will certainly be able to help you demonstrate King Zhenyuan's fighting style and battle strength.” [The Beginning] sounded full of confidence.

If there was enough time, it can even extrapolate the process of birth and extinction of the entire universe.

Ye Qingyu smiled and did not discourage this light brain.

Extrapolations and simulations could not solve everything.

The most peculiar place of formation martial arts lies in that not everything was definite. Even if calculated beforehand, a martial artist can still create miracles. He didn’t think that the most powerful state of King Zhenyuan simulated by [The Beginning] would be able to understand all of his secrets; however Ye Qingyu did not object to [The Beginning] doing so. At least it can provide some regular information and allow Ye Qingyu to understand his enemy to a great degree.

Suddenly, there came a voice outside.

“The Chief Commander Sun’s official residence of the military division asks to see Military Judge Zhang Longcheng.”

The voice was resounding, incomparably clear, and like strands of silk, was upright and frank, without the slightest cover up. It made people feel good when they heard it.

Ye Qingyu ended the video conversation.

Now, the whole General residence was deserted and quiet. Besides Ye Qingyu, there wasn't any other people. The loose leaves danced in the wind, like a withered mound. He walked out of the main hall, along the paved road of fallen leaves, and came to the gate of the official residence.

A youngster in the deputy general’s armour of the Chief Commander residence was waiting patiently outside. Seeing that Ye Qingyu had come out, he bowed respectfully and presented an invitation to him with both hands, “Military Judge Zhang Longcheng, I am Sun Li. My clan's chief commander asks to see you regarding something important. I wonder if it’s convenient for you to come over now?”

Ye Qingyu also recognized this youngster. He was the general who was following behind Chief Commander Sun Yi that day at the King of Zhenyuan’s residence. He was very young, also very talented, and should be the focus of the Sun clan’s cultivation.

“Lord Sun Liis too polite, please lead the way.”

Ye Qingyu did not hesitate to agree.

At the east city gate it was the sovereign of the Sun clan who stood up for him. Moreover, given Chief Commander Sun Yi’s stance during the battle at the King of Zhenyuan’s residence, the Sun clan had already helped Ye Qingyu greatly. This olive branch needs to be picked up.

Moreover, Ye Qingyu wanted to ask why the Quasi-emperor of the Sun clan would help him at all costs.

……

……

Half an hour later.

The Sun clan’s residence, the ancestral mansion.

In the depths of the mansion.

“Training in the Immortal Domain?”

Ye Qingyu was astonished to hear this, “Your Majesty, you mean the Sun clan wants to give the place of training in the Immortal Domain to me at no cost? This...”

Under the guidance of Sun Li, Ye Qingyu came to the Chief Commander’s residence, and was then brought to the Sun clan’s mansion under the leadership of Chief Commander Sun Yi. Then, with no psychological preparation, it was there that he met the sovereign of the Sun clan, a living Martial Emperor.

And, without much concealment, drama and bargaining, the Sovereign of the Sun clan went straight to the point. He said that in three days he would send Ye Qingyu into the legendary Immortal Domain for training to help him enhance his strength to cope with his battle on the Azure Cloud Platform three months later, and did not propose any exchange conditions.

This was a huge surprise to Ye Qingyu.

At the same time he was more puzzled than before.

The Immortal Domain was a place that many people in the Dark Realm hoped to go to. It was rumoured that this was the only remaining world of the Immortals after the Immortal world shattered to pieces and holds the secret of immortality. Since ancient times, the majority of Martial Emperors who were born in the Dark Realm had some sort of link with the Immortal Domain.

This piece of fragment of the Immortal world was acquired by the creator of the Dark Realm, became the most valuable treasure, and was said to contain the secret known only to the heavens. Many real super forces of the Dark Realm were also not qualified to enter the Immortal Domain for training. Since ancient times, there were only two ways to enter the Immortal Domain. One of which was that there has to be a Martial Emperor born within the clan, but if there wasn’t a Martial Emperor among the descendants, then the place would be automatically lost. The second way was to perform exceptionally meritorious service to the camp, such as Nie Tiankong. However, later Ye Qingyu came to know that, although Nie Tiankong was rapidly promoted for killing Wang Jianru, he in fact did not obtain the eligibility to enter the Immortal Domain for training. There were some twists and turns along the way. Between power and the eligibility to enter the Immortal Domain. Nie Tiankong in the end made a choice and gave up this eligibility.

And even the Martial Emperor families that have such eligibility were extremely cautious with such a place, and would select the most outstanding talent of the clan. It was only after such a talent had been through training to a certain extent, passed various assessments, and that they think there is further possibility, that they would consider sending them into the Immortal Domain, to win the opportunity of becoming Emperor.

Such a place could be said to be extremely precious, and was enough to make all of the aristocrats in the Dark Realm envious.

Now, the Sun clan said they were giving up this place for Ye Qingyu.

Ye Qingyu found it a little hard to believe.

Although he was indeed very keen to get this eligibility, he was more aware that Immortal gold would not drop from the sky. It was impossible for the Sun clan to not have any conditions or request.

“What does elder want me to do?” Ye Qingyu also asked bluntly.
