Chapter 704: Realm Monarch, Arrived!

“How should I improve this skill?” asked Zhong Yue humbly.

“Making it slightly smaller will do.” said Demon Empress Bi Er.

“Slightly smaller?” murmured Zhong Yue as he tried to figure it out and suddenly, he felt that the mist of unknown surrounding him cleared away.

…

“The Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud had broad and deep knowledge in the path of cultivation. I’ve gained a lot from them and I wish that everyone can train with them before the competition.” Zhong Yue said to the experts of Prison Realm who he gathered in his courtyard.

The experts frowned immediately upon hearing him, and Shu Ye instantly rejected this suggestion, “If I show my skills in front of them, all of my secrets will be known. Forgive me for not being able to agree with you and even if I agreed, my teacher, Heavenly King Shang will also not allow that.”

As soon as he finished talking, he turned around and left.

Zhong Yue shook his head upon this and when he looked at everyone else ones, he said, “What do you guys think?”

“I may have a teacher on top of me but the skills I used are all self-created. I would really like to see the weakness in myself,” said Li Tianxing right before Jun Wudao was about to say something.

Bi and An exchanged glances upon Zhong Yue’s suggestion and they said, “We would like to be advised and given guidance, but we are afraid that none of you could.”

Heavenly King Lu frowned right away and he asked, “And you are?”

“I am Bi, and he is An.” Bi answered.

The expressions of the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud changed right away after Bi introduced themselves and they quickly greeted, “Sorry for the impudence, seniors. With your ability, we really can’t provide anything useful.”

Bi and An said humbly, “Don’t mind that. Our previous lives have nothing to do with our current life. Drop the politeness.”

Li Tianxing, Jun Wudao and the others were all in shock and confused but as someone who knew the previous life and the legacy of Bi an An, Zhong Yue was not surprised at all.

Bi an An were both celestial emperors in their previous lives and they had greater seniority than even the Eighteen Emperors of the Heavenly Cloud. With the power they once possessed, the techniques they created were out of the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud’s league.

Jun Wudao glanced at Zhong Yue and she thought, He taught me two techniques back then without holding back and if I dare not show my techniques now, it means that I admit that I am inferior to him and I will be humiliated as well!

She stood out right without any hesitation and she said, “Please teach me, seniors.”

Yu Bochuan also joined in and he said, “I admire the courage and loyalty of the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud all the while. It is my gain if I could be taught by you.”

Zhong Yue then looked at the last two Qi Practitioners, Ye Zhengming and Shen Qi, who were also one of the top ten in Prison Realm but they were slightly weaker than Zhong Yue and the others.

Ye Zhengming considered the suggestion for a moment and while he was still thinking about it, Shen Qi walked away without hesitation and said, “I do not dare to risk leaking the techniques of my teacher.”

Under Shen Qi’s influence, Ye Zhenging looked up and said hesitantly, “Evil God Zhong, please forgive me for rejecting your kind offer. I’ll see you next time!”

Zhong Yue let them go and said, “So be it, everyone has their own thoughts. Now, shall we begin the lesson? Shall we welcome Senior Martial Brother Li to demonstrate his skills first and have Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud refine his skills while we excuse ourselves?”

Then, they all dismissed themselves and left the palace with only Li Tianxing staying inside.

Li Tianxing then got up and the greeted Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud and he started to demonstrate his moves. Upon his first move, Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud identified about eight hundred flaws in it and the same thing happened when he demonstrated his second move.

He became extremely despondent and at the next second, he asked, “How about Evil God Zhong? How many flaws did he have in his techniques?”

To the pleasant of Li Tianxing, Heavenly King Lu replied, “There were a total of 1244 flaws in it.”

The relieved Li Tianxing then asked again, “Then how many flaws were there in his second move?”

“Only one,” answered Heavenly King Lu.

Li Tianxing was stunned by the answer and he did not know what to say anymore.

“There was only one flaw as well in his third move.” added Heavenly King Lu.

“Again!” Li Tianxing shouted as he was about to challenge himself again.

Time passed slowly and after quite some time, Heavenly King Lu could be heard saying, “Next.”

Jun Wudao then walked into the palace and when she entered the palace, Li Tianxing was sitting on the side sweating heavily, seemingly oblivious to the lady’s entrance.

“Don’t worry, he just needs some time to gather his thoughts.”

Demon Empress Bi Er laughed and said, “Little boy Li, go through what we told you, amend the flaws in your techniques and return after you think you can pass.”

Li Tianxing nodded mindlessly and when he exited the palace with an empty mind, Yu Bochuan quickly walked up to him and asked, “Senior Martial Brother Li, so how was it?”

However, Yu Bochuan received a cold shoulder from Li Tianxing as he said impatiently, “Leave me alone. I need some time alone.”

Yu Bochuan was stunned and after being ignored, he continued to wait at side patiently.

Not long later, Jun Wudao walked out from the palace full of sweat and she looked like she had received quite a heavy blow to her confidence as well. Upon seeing her, Yu Bochuan immediately walked up and asked, “So what did you gain from them, Senior Martial Sister Wudao.”

“Leave me alone for a moment,” replied Jun Wudao as she walked away with an empty mind just like Li Tianxing.

“What happened?” murmured Yu Bochuan.

“Next,” there came the voice of Heavenly King Lu when Yu Bochuan was very puzzled and curious.

Yu Bochuan calmed himself down and when he walked into the palace, he was greeted by a question from Demon Empress Bi Er, “Do you know what happened to them?”

“No, I don’t.” replied Yu Bochuan as he scratched his head in puzzlement.

“Then you will know it in no time!” said the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud at the same time.

Then, after quite some time, Yu Bochuan walked out from the palace without saying a word.

“King Zhong, are there anymore?” Heaenly King Lu and the others asked as their interests were piqued.

Zhong Yue’s eyes lit up right away and he quickly answered, “There are still a few more. Brother Bai, big lion, Sanweng and Sansou, come.”

Not long later, Bai Canghai and the others gathered around him and after Zhong Yue sent them into the palace, he smiled and said, “This will be good for you.”

“Strange, there are actually two heterogeneous Qi Practitioners.”

Heavenly King Lu sniffed and his face expression changed as he said, “Friend, you must be careful. The fragrance of your fruit will bring disaster to you. If I can pick up the fragrance, then it will not be able to escape the senses of those on the same level as me. If they notice of your existence, they will wipe your sentience away and have you planted in their secret realms.”

Right away, Old Man Six Paths stood up straight and he thanked the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud for their warning.

“There is nothing we can teach you due to your unique cultivation path. Hmmm… a very dark aura and the presence of curse. Could it be… an Innate Curse Spirit Body?”

Heavenly King Lu’s expression changed right away again and he said, “The Innate Curse Spirit Body is definitely something to be terrified of. Similar to those two, there is nothing we can teach you. But worry not for I know someone of the same kind. I can introduce this little friend of mine to you one day.”

Bai Canghai was struck with intense happiness and at the same time, he felt very relieved and he exclaimed, “There is really someone with the same innate spirit body as me? Where is he?”

However, to Bai Canghai’s disappointment, Heavenly King Lu shook his head and said, “I cannot bring you now. We are following King Zhong under the order of King Geng and with the competition around the corner, we must stay King Zhong’s side. We can only bring you to that little friend of ours after bringingKing Geng out of the Abyss. You may leave now with the others while those two over there can stay.”

Zhong Yue then led Bai Canghai, Old Man Six Paths and Hu Sanweng out of the palace, leaving Shi Buyi and Ma Sansou behind. But it did not take long until those two stayed left the palace mindlessly and shut themselves in to cultivate.

Yu Bochuan, Li Tianxing and the others did not possess any top tier calculation art and unlike the others, Jun Wudao was a descendant of the Tian Suo Celestial Race who had been taught the calculation art of her race ever since she was born. Thus, she was the first to return for more teachings, but the outcome was still the same. She was once again shut down by the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud.

The second to return was Yu Bochuan, but similarly to Jun Wudao, he too, received quite a heavy blow.

Though the results were very harsh to all of them, the power of Yu Bochuan, Li Tianxing, Jun Wudao and the others experienced a rapid growth and whatever they gained far surpassed whatever they would have gained if they were to cultivate alone. As they entered the palace time and time again, the flaws in their techniques slowly vanished.

After all, the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud were all celestial emperors and Heavenly King Lu was even almost on the level of a Creator; with their knowledge and their experience, it would be hard if Yu Bochuan and the others failed to learn anything when they were taught by the Eighteen Emperors of Heavenly Cloud.

Finally, the day that greatly affected everyone had come. Crimson red godly rays fell from the skies, merging together and turning into a long path. Ships then appeared in the air after breaking through the dimension; on top of these ships stood numerous gods and flying around the ships were all sorts of colourful clouds and phoenixes.

On top of these clouds stood one after another godly Qi Practitioners came from every part of the Six Path Worlds and they line up along the crimson red path.

Then, the Realm Monarch descended from the skies and he was greeted by the many people gathered along the path as he walked past them.

The battle had begun!
