Chapter 1330: God King Realm (1/2)

”Although Li Lu's soul is unstable due to the evil spirit in her body, her cultivation has also risen significantly because of it. This can be considered as a blessing in disguise.” Blood Knife Ancestor sighed.

”Li Lu has advanced to Seventh Order Ancestor God Realm; I wonder how that brat Xiaolong is progressing? Mid-Eighth Order Ancient God Realm? Perhaps late-Eighth Order, or even Ninth Order Ancient God Realm?!” Golden Brow Ancestor mused.

Blood Knife Ancestor chuckled as he said, ”It has been more than a decade. An average genius would probably break through to mid-Eighth Order Ancient God Realm in this amount of time, therefore, I estimate that Xiaolong could have broken through to Ninth Order Ancient God Realm by now!”

Golden Brow Ancestor was comforted as he thought the same.

“I’ve received news that the Black Region World’s Fortune Gate Chief Liu Mengyuan had gone to the headquarters.” Blood Knife Ancestor suddenly changed the subject.

At the mention of this, creases wrinkled Golden Brow Ancestor’s brows. He too had learned that Liu Mengyuan had gone to the Fortune Gate’s headquarters. It was highly likely that Liu Mengyuan had gone to complain about Huang Xiaolong’s ruthless killing of his disciple Jiang Feng as well as report about Wang Yu, who was also severely injured by Huang Xiaolong; so that the headquarter’s Punishment Hall would send someone to punish Huang Xiaolong.

”The headquarters mostly ignores the competition between branches' disciples.” Golden Brow Ancestor said, and added, “Let him jump around.” But inwardly, he wasn’t confident as he said this. Generally, the headquarters didn’t pay attention to the disputes between branches’ disciples, but Liu Mengyuan had a backing in the Fortune Gate’s headquarters Punishment Hall.

Liu Mengyuan’s backing was an Elder called Wu Zongpeng of the Punishment Hall. Wu Zongpeng has a high status in the Fortune Gate’s headquarters. If he lobbied to punish Huang Xiaolong, forget about Golden Brow or Blood Knife , even their venerable Master, who had been missing for a long time, won’t be able to save Huang Xiaolong.

“But, I have heard that the headquarters might be interested in nurturing a batch of genius disciples with emperor rank godhead from several world surfaces’ branches! I wonder if this is true.” Blood Knife Ancestor added, “If Xiaolong can pass the assessment, and gets selected, then would we need to pay attention to a mere Liu Mengyuan?”

Worry crept up Golden Brow Ancestor’s eyes. He said, “Recently, various Divine World’s top forces are recruiting emperor rank godhead geniuses, therefore, there might be great changes in the near future.”

“Great changes?!” Blood Knife Ancestor was shocked.

Golden Brow Ancestor nodded, “Yes. This is my gut feeling. However, even if the headquarters selects emperor rank godhead disciples, they would select those that had broken through to Ancestor God Realm. Xiaolong’s cultivation is still too low. Regardless of his potential, he still needs to reach Ancestor God Realm cultivation.’

Blood Knife Ancestor sighed weakly, “It’s as you’ve said ah…”

This was really something that made them feel helpless. But they could understand the reasons for the headquarters’ actions.

The Ancestor God Realm was an important ceiling. In the Divine World, the Ancestor God Realm was a benchmark to gauge a disciple’s overall potential. Some important factors that were taken into consideration were how many cultivation years it had taken the disciple to breakthrough to Ancestor God Realm, and what level were their avatars. The avatar’s talent formed upon advancing to Ancestor God Realm affected future cultivation progress.

Some monstrous geniuses were fortuitous while forming their avatars, that there were occasions where an avatar’s talent was higher than the main body. Whereas, other geniuses would rush to breakthrough to Ancestor God Realm, hence, resulting in an avatar with an average talent. This would affect their progress in the future.

……

At this time, Huang Xiaolong’s group was flying towards the Soulless Star to find one of the herb ingredients for refining the Brilliant Black Soul Divine Pill.

The Soulless Star was located in the middle-belt of the Extraterritorial Devil Battlefield. Even though the evil spirits and magic beasts living there were not as powerful as those in the deeper region, they were definitely much stronger than the ones in the outer peripheral region.

The weakest magical beasts in the middle-belt had the minimum strength of low-level First Order Ancestor God Realm, while there were quite a few mid-level and high-level Ancestor God Realm level beasts.

Then again, against void devil beast Xu Baisheng, Feng Er, Gui Yi, and Gui Er, these magical beasts and evil spirits were of no concern for Huang Xiaolong. However, apart from these beasts, their journey was laden with remnants of ancient formations as well as devil’s curses. Even high-level Ancestor God Realm masters would pale at the mention of these remnants of ancient formations and devil’s curses, therefore, Huang Xiaolong and his group acted with caution.

Along the way, Huang Xiaolong did not stop the surrounding devil qi.
