Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 876: Mission Enters Imperial Capital
Chapter 876: Chapter 876: Mission Enters Imperial Capital
The Anti-Stone Alliance quickly issued a notice, deciding to send an emissary delegation into the Imperial Capital of Stone Country to meet the new Stone Emperor and engage in some exchanges.
Shi Hao thought for a moment, is this an attempt to undermine my authority?
It can be imagined that when this delegation meets me, they will definitely propose a challenge.
The Stone Emperor rules the country by martial arts, representing the highest combat power of a nation, how could he refuse a battle?
If he refuses, it would be a huge blow to Shi Hao’s prestige, still thinking of walking down the Emperor’s Road?
That’s really laughable.
The so-called Emperor’s Road is to make the entire nation’s populace feel awe and worship towards Shi Hao, like a deity!
Therefore, whether Shi Hao refuses to fight or loses, walking the Emperor’s Road would become empty words. ƒгeewebnovёl_com
However, haha, how could these people know how terrifying my combat power is?
Shi Hao immediately issued a decree, agreeing for the alliance’s emissary group to come over.
Thus, when the war was on the verge of breaking out, a massive emissary group from the Anti-Stone Alliance quietly entered the Imperial Capital.
Shi Hao held a banquet in Guanghua Palace to receive this emissary group.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!" The emissary group, totaling 326 people, all present, first bowed in salute to Shi Hao.
Even though Shi Hao is just at the Great Sacrificial Heaven level, as the master of a Ten Stars force like Stone Country, everyone must give him the necessary respect.
Of course, only personally targeting Shi Hao, although the Great Sacrificial Heaven level is strong anywhere, it isn’t truly powerful for a Ten Stars force.
——Such masters, which faction doesn’t have a handful of them?
Both sides assumed the guest and host positions, Shi Hao sitting high on the throne, with Weng Nanqing by his side. Su Manman was still in the Immortal Realm, so naturally, Sister Weng became the Western Palace Lady, while the position of Eastern Palace Lady was reserved for Witch Su.
Besides, the Weng Family fully supported Shi Hao, not only voluntarily merging their power into Stone Country, but also actively enlisting their family members, setting a good example.
The atmosphere of the banquet was tense and awkward, with both sides eating silently, without any intention to speak.
However, after several rounds of drinks, the Anti-Stone Alliance finally couldn’t hold back.
——They were here to challenge Shi Hao.
"Junior Brother Shi, we were all part of Ling Tian Academy back then, who would’ve thought that in just a few years, Junior Brother Shi would become an emperor, making me also have to pay homage!" A young man spoke towards Shi Hao.
This was very disrespectful, as Shi Hao now represents Stone Country, he is the Stone Emperor!
"How audacious!" Weng Nanqing immediately stood up from her seat and rebuked the man sternly.
"Junior Sister Weng, am I not telling the truth?" The young man also didn’t take Weng Nanqing seriously, saying nonchalantly.
Who was this person?
The disciple of cultivation from the Nine Dragons Abyss, Yan Tianyi.
In terms of age, he was over eighty years older than Shi Hao. Calculating based on a century per generation, he could barely be considered of the same era.
However, he had entered the Great Sacrificial Heaven early on, and now he had cultivated to the height of Four Sacrifices, with the potential to ascend the Heaven Building Ladder in the future.
In the Universe, geniuses at the level of Four Sacrifices are innumerable, but on Yunding Star, such geniuses are scarce.
Therefore, Yan Tianyi certainly had the right to be proud.
He had also spent time at Ling Tian Academy, but adding up all the time, it might not even be a month, because he was already at the Great Sacrificial Heaven level back then, and Ling Tian Academy couldn’t provide him with any help.
Thus, although he had heard of Shi Hao’s reputation, he hadn’t personally witnessed Shi Hao in action.
In his view, Shi Hao’s strength must have been exaggerated.
Moreover, he was at Four Sacrifices, while Shi Hao was still so young, what could his cultivation level be?
At most just One Sacrifice.
"Yan Tianyi, come out and fight!" Weng Nanqing said coldly, "If you lose to me, kneel and apologize to my husband."
"Sure, if you have such capability!" Yan Tianyi was completely fearless.
This emissary group was here to display muscle, to diminish Shi Hao’s prestige, so both sides were well aware, and no one was surprised by the sudden conflict.
"A battle in the heavens!" Weng Nanqing shouted crisply, already soaring into the sky.
"Why should I fear you?" Yan Tianyi smiled faintly, also breaking into the air.
Boom!
The two sides immediately launched a fierce battle.
To everyone’s shock, Weng Nanqing was also at Four Sacrifices!
But it must be noted, when Weng Nanqing was at Ling Tian Academy, her strength and martial arts talent ranked at most in the top twenty, otherwise, she wouldn’t have needed to be a top student at Heavenly Palace Academy.
Can the top twenty all reach Four Sacrifices?
Isn’t it possible that this generation has at least twenty people qualified to challenge the Heaven Building Ladder?
Of course not!
In this top twenty, only those in the top three might reach Four Sacrifices, others could at most reach Three Sacrifices, with future prospects ending at the Heaven Connecting Road.
So, it’s frightening that Weng Nanqing, previously barely in the race, stepped into Four Sacrifices.
——They certainly wouldn’t know that Weng Nanqing entered the Universe and gained immense benefits, incomparable to the past.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Weng Nanqing and Yan Tianyi fought intensely, unable to determine a victor for a while.
"Your Majesty, I recently ignited the Incense Flame, may I know if your country has any talent to spar with me?" Another young man stood up, bowing to Shi Hao with cupped fists.
Seemingly respectful, but with a condescending air, full of confidence.
At the Supplementing Divine Temple, I am invincible.
"Xiao Hei," Shi Hao said calmly.
"Yes," Xiao Hei responded, Bamboo Sword in hand, walking towards the man.
——After Shi Hao’s return, he summoned back Xiao Hei and Yue Feifei.
On the outside square, another battle erupted.
The young man was indeed strong, but Xiao Hei was even stronger.
Why?
Simple, he ignited the Incense Flame with the essence of the World Tree, in this aspect, he was even more formidable than Weng Nanqing.
The decayed branches of the World Tree were referred to as Holy Branches, so what about its essence?
In short, igniting the Incense Flame with the essence of the World Tree absolutely crushes all—unless it’s a monster like Shi Hao, who, even without the good fortune of the World Tree essence, could ignite the Incense Flame with mere strength of limbs, not inferior in the slightest.
But the multitude of mediocrities, how could they be matched to Xiao Hei?
With just one sword strike, Xiao Hei pierced through the man’s throat, securing an initial victory.
The man perished, his face still showing disbelief, as if completely unable to accept that he wasn’t even a match for a single strike from Xiao Hei.
A life was lost, causing the emissary group to fall silent instantly, but their battle intent was aroused.
"I am Huangfu Yun, I request a move from the Stone Emperor!" A man appearing just over twenty stood up.
Huangfu Yun, a disciple of cultivation from the fourth-tier sect of a Nine Stars force.
Despite his Nine Stars origin, his talent was extraordinary, reaching the Great Sacrificial Heaven at forty, completing a sacrificial offering every decade or so since, now just over eighty, yet already achieving Four Sacrifices.
In this aspect, he is more talented than Yan Tianyi.
Therefore, despite his Nine Stars origin, in the future, there might be a chance for him to become an almighty on the Heaven Building Ladder!
