“This is to be distributed to the soldiers and contributing ministers according to their needs.”
Zhao Huai took out several bottles of pills from the black ring and handed them to the other party.
“Understood. ”
Song Zhishu nodded solemnly, taking the porcelain bottle with both hands.
Given the cultivation talent of the Crown Prince, it is certain that he will be aiming for the Golden Core Realm in his next seclusion.
For Yan Country, this is undoubtedly a great boon.
“Then, this subordinate will take his leave.”
After watching him go, Zhao Huai looked at the plum blossoms slowly blossoming in the courtyard.
Seeing an object and thinking of a person, he couldn’t help but sigh softly.
Everyone in Yan Country considered him the Lord of Yan, showing him utmost respect. The new year was approaching and yet, he had not a single close friend here.
Was this what it felt like to be lonely at the top?
The road to Immortal Cultivation is long and destined to be lonely.
Using eight times the time acceleration of the Ancestral Artifact, the reincarnation treasured mirror.
He needed to breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm as quickly as possible. freewebn(o)vel
Thousands of miles away, the Limitless Immortal Sect.
The spiritual mountains shrouded in immortality were also covered by pure white snow.
However, the sky occasionally resonated with the rumble of thunder.
An elder clad in a plain robe, his aura unfathomably profound, looked towards the snowy peak of the mountain, coughing from time to time.
“Hierarch, your time is running short.”
An elder in a white robe sighed next to him.
No matter what, the elder of the Limitless Immortal Sect had at least reached the Rebirth Realm. But looking at him, there was a lot of worry in his demeanor.
The Hierarch of the Limitless Immortal Sect waved his hand, indicating that he was unharmed. He smiled faintly and said:
“Don’t be too pessimistic. I have lived for thousands of years and have seen all the sights I wanted to see. There’s nothing I really regret leaving behind.”
“Regarding the affairs of the human world, there’s no need to worry too much. The Red Dragon Transforms into Phoenix, the national fortune of the Xia is stabilizing. I have calculated what comes next – there are no significant issues. Two people with the same fate, but from different origins. They are both rare individuals, and they know their limits.”
“Hierarch, if you get involved with karma like this, your impending thunder tribulation might be…”
The elder in a white robe understood clearly; the Hierarch’s cultivation had long broken through to the Metamorphosis Stage and had reached the newest level, but he had suppressed it all this while.
Above the Metamorphosis Stage was the Refining Emptiness phase.
Above the Refining Emptiness was the Superior Realm, also known as the semi-immortal.
But Refining Emptiness is merely a transitional phase, and cultivators will not linger in it for too long.
Refining Emptiness is a realm that requires crossing a tribulation.
Thunder tribulation, Mind Tribulation, Taoist Tribulation…
The type of tribulation the cultivator fears most is the one to appear.
This tribulation is not just a single thunderbolt that dissipates once it strikes but a period in which the cultivator must survive the tribulation.
Surviving it would make one Mighty, failing to survive it would mean the dissolution of their Tao and death, all their centuries of hard work destroyed in an instant.
The realm after breaking through was the Superior Realm.
The Superior Realm was also known as the semi-immortal, capable of bodily renewal, forming immortal bones, and exhaling and inhaling immortal qi. They were capable of direct ascension.
They can also choose to face the Immortal Tribulation after their ascension. However, only after surviving the Immortal Tribulation can one claim to have proven themselves as an Immortal and succeeded on the path of Immortality.
Only after the Immortal Tribulation, you can be considered a true immortal. But ever since the Immortal Path collapsed eight hundred years ago, no one has been able to ascend.
The Superior Realm, being a semi-immortal, if one does not ascend for a long time and remains in the earth realm without nourishment from immortal qi, the vitality within them starts to decay, and their realm will regress.
So, in the centuries following the collapse of the Immortal Path, many Mighty beings have knocked on death’s door.
Simultaneously, spiritual qi gradually dwindled, and the strength of each generation of cultivators started to wane.
Thus, even the Mighty beings in the Metamorphosis realm dared not break through.
Because, essentially, it was akin to entering the realm of death.
As cultivators, they had to bear the risk of the breakthrough, and even if they broke through to the Refining Emptiness or Superior Realm, their lifespan would not extend; rather, the risk would only have increased.
After breaking through to the Metamorphosis Stage, cultivators have an unspoken understanding not to cultivate further and to live in seclusion in forests and mountains, staying out of sight and out of trouble, in order to avoid a tribulation and entanglement in karma.
Since the collapse of the Immortal Path, this rule has been unbroken except by Ancestor Yan Zu.
And so, everyone in the Immortal Cultivation World believed that Yan Zu descended as an immortal, rather than ascended.
Now, the Hierarch of the Limitless Immortal Sect was facing this predicament.
His cultivation had been suppressed for too long. He had broken through to the Metamorphosis Stage a long time ago but had not crossed the tribulation. He had merely used a secret method to suppress it, maintaining a delicate balance.
However, he had meddled in too much karma recently, and this balance could no longer be maintained.
He was still embroiled in the heavenly such that fate had still locked onto him.
“Hierarch, without you, I’m afraid the Devil Sect will cause chaos again.”
“The disciples travelling in the Northern State have not yet returned. I fear the odds are against them.”
The elder in a white robe voiced his worries.
The world of Immortal Cultivation is not as calm as it seems on the surface.
The current peace is maintained by the Immortal Sect, or rather, it is maintained through the suppression by Yan Zu five hundred years ago.
Now that Yan Zu has been gone for a long time, some things can no longer be suppressed.
The Hierarch’s strength was the strongest among all the elders of the Immortal Sect.
Only he was capable of holding down the fort in the Spiritual Mountains.
The Hierarch of the Limitless Immortal Sect said, “The Devil Lord was seriously injured by Yan Zu. He won’t be reemerging within the next hundred years at least. Let the sect’s geniuses grow quickly. That is the best way to deal with the Devil Sect.”
“Elder Hai has been stationed in the Illusory Southern Sea, fishing for Spiritual Objects for five hundred years. If I’m no longer here, let him take over my position.”
The Xia’s Capital.
On the Imperial Court, civil and military officials were arrayed on both sides, contrasting the decadent demeanor of the young lord who was presently reigning.
Many of the young ministers were full of vigour, looking at the Empress on the Dragon Chair with longing.
Of course, there were also ministers with hidden malice who thought a woman wielding imperial power was inappropriate. But due to the Empress’s prestige, they did not dare to voice these thoughts.
“The old ministers have returned to court, and the issue of military reforms has been decided. If we don’t make radical changes, we could very well face extinction.”
“Your Majesty, the policy of civil governance was established by the previous emperor.. Isn’t altering it overnight damaging your prestige?”
