Chapter 755 - The Gifts of Advancement was A Two (1/2)
…
On Ye Xiao’s side, he returned to the Xuan Yuan immortal territory to cultivate. Very quickly, he refined most of the energy substances, law energy, and sacred blood that had not been refined in his body.
Just as he thought, those things were very dense. They had greatly increased his cultivation, allowing his cultivation to advance to the late-stage peak of the Sacred Sovereign with 11 apertures. He was just a little bit away from successfully advancing to the Sacred Sovereign with 12 apertures.
Feeling the 11 huge apertures in his body continuously rotating, Ye Xiao let out a long breath. The power in his body seemed to be endless, inexhaustible, and eternal.
Under that situation, he even felt that he could almost unleash the power of the Void celestial art without any restrictions.
As a celestial art, the Void celestial art should be a power that could only be used by powerhouses in the Celestial Sovereign realm.
As a Sacred Sovereign, Ye Xiao was not suitable to control that power in the beginning.
That was because he did not have enough origin source reserves that he could output.
After his cultivation had increased, he could output even more origin sources, so he could naturally control that power easily.
He clenched his fists, and the stars in the sky could not help but tremble.
‘What a powerful strength. I feel that even without using any cultivation techniques, I can easily destroy a star area with just my physical strength!
‘I’ve only cultivated to the Sacred Sovereign with 11 apertures, and I haven’t even obtained the 12 apertures, yet I’m already so powerful. I really don’t know how powerful I’ll be after I advance to the Sacred Sovereign with 12 apertures.
‘Not to mention, there’s still the existence of a Celestial Sovereign after the Sacred Sovereign with 12 apertures! What kind of scene will that be?’
After that, Ye Xiao summoned Sacred Sovereign Shang over.
“Shang, I’ve already investigated it clearly. There’s indeed not just one of them, but a group of people. In fact, the number of members in this organization far exceeds our imaginations.
“In the short period of time I’ve been out, I’ve already killed a series of archaic Sacred Sovereigns!
“If my guess is correct, even if I’ve already killed many people, they still have some companions that exist in this universe.”
A cold glint flashed through Sacred Sovereign Shang’s eyes.
“I only know that there are a few of them, but I didn’t expect there to be so many. These people are simply shameless. In order to raise their cultivation, they actually went all out and risk destroying the entire universe.
“One must know that once the World Creation fragment is exhausted to a certain extent, the entire universe might fall apart.”
Ye Xiao nodded.
“The problem I’m thinking about now isn’t this, but the person behind them. Someone who can set up such a thing is definitely not an ordinary person. His strength might even be above the Sacred Sovereign realm and has already reached the level of a Celestial Sovereign.
“Currently, I’ve already killed quite a number of his subordinates. It’s very likely that he has already sensed something and suspects that he might send even stronger subordinates over. He might even come over personally to deal with me.”
Sacred Sovereign Shang’s expression was extremely solemn when he heard that.
One reason was that after he was subdued by Ye Xiao and refined into a puppet, he would gradually become more inclined to think for Ye Xiao.
Another reason was that in his primordial soul, there was a deep-rooted feeling towards the universe.
He knew better than anyone that right then, in the universe, there was only one person who could kill those traitors and save the entire universe, and that was Ye Xiao himself.
Therefore, Ye Xiao absolutely could not have any mishaps. Otherwise, the universe would be completely finished.
Sacred Sovereign Shang pondered for a moment before continuing,
“This matter requires special attention. If the other party might send an even stronger existence, then you must raise your strength to an even stronger level in the shortest amount of time possible.
“Otherwise, if you die, all the living beings in this universe, including this universe itself, would become food for others.
“Moreover, there was an extremely important matter.
“Originally, I didn’t think that they would have so many people, so I didn’t pay too much attention to it back then. Now that I know that they have so many people, they should have already swept across this universe and walked away with many World Creation fragments.
“If that’s the case, then we’ll be in big trouble.”
Ye Xiao raised his eyebrows as if he did not quite understand what he meant.
Sacred Sovereign Shang looked at him and explained in the end,
“If a Sacred Sovereign wants to successfully advance to the level of a Celestial Sovereign, not only do they have to rely on the energy and substance of the world but they also have to rely on the complete source energy of the universe. To put it another way, it is the vast majority of the source energy that is close to complete.
“Just like how if a woman wants to give birth, her body must be healthy. If her body is already broken and incomplete, it will be very difficult for her to continue giving birth.
“At this moment, I don’t know what level the origin energy of this universe has been destroyed to.
“If the destruction is too intense, there’s no way for you to become a Celestial Sovereign!
“At that time, how can you possibly beat the other party?”
When Ye Xiao heard those words, his heart instantly sank!
He had never thought of that problem before. That day, when he suddenly heard Sacred Sovereign Shang mention it, he suddenly realized the seriousness of the entire matter.
If he could not advance to the Celestial Sovereign realm, then there was naturally no possibility of advancing in the future.
That was fatal to both his and the Ancestral Dragon’s plan!
“Is there any way to help me increase my strength faster now?”
Ye Xiao asked.
Although the speed at which he increased his cultivation was already very fast, that was because of the credit of the Golden Book divine soul. On the path of martial arts, his improvement speed was too fast, and he lacked experience in many areas. Compared to a super genius like Sacred Sovereign Shang who was a native, he was far inferior.
It was also good to learn from others.
Sacred Sovereign Shang pondered for a moment and immediately said,
“If I told you that this matter requires a certain price, what would you choose?”
Ye Xiao was startled and immediately asked,
“You mean to let you go?”
Sacred Sovereign Shang had yet to be completely assimilated, and so had the other Sacred Sovereigns. It was impossible for the puppets to completely change their minds in an instant. Otherwise, they would not be worthy of being called Sacred Sovereigns.
It was a circular and gradual process, and they had yet to reach the peak.
Sacred Sovereign Shang did not speak. His eyes were staring straight at Ye Xiao as if he was looking at what choice he wanted to make.
Although he did not speak, Ye Xiao already understood that what he said was right.
After taking a deep breath, he said seriously,
“If that’s the case, I’m willing to let you go.”
Sacred Sovereign Shang was no longer that much of a threat to him. Right then, his main enemy was a high-level cultivator from the second universe.
Compared to Sacred Sovereign Shang, that puppet, the other party was an existence that could truly make him die.
Ye Xiao was not stupid. He could tell the difference.
Right after he said that Sacred Sovereign Shang smiled, very happily.
“That’s right. As expected of someone who could defeat me. Very bold.”
After laughing, he continued to speak,
“I’m not asking you to let us go. More accurately speaking, I want you to make us all become members of the Xuan Yuan immortal sect. We have the same bloodline power as you, and we also have the pure origin blood.”
Ye Xiao’s brows twitched.
“What do you mean by this idea of yours?”
“Do you feel that every time you advance, you will be able to raise the entire Xuan Yuan immortal sect and bring them gifts? That your relationship with the Xuan Yuan immortal sect is one of mere give and take?
“If that’s what you think, then you are gravely mistaken.
“When you achieved success in your cultivation, not choosing to leave your immortal sect was a very correct choice.
“The reason was that, according to the world’s origin laws, although your ascension brought them great gifts. However, when their cultivation base rose, they would also give you a portion of their gifts!
“The world’s origin laws were not heartless. They were more like a bond of mutual help.
“There were so many people in the Xuan Yuan immortal sect who advances every day.
“However, because of one person’s advancement, the gifts would be distributed to the entire immortal sect. In addition, one’s cultivation base was stronger than all of them. Therefore, there were many times when one could hardly feel this gift.
“However, it was real. Moreover, it was also one of the reasons why one could maintain a rapid advancement when one’s cultivation base was at such a high level.
“The gift will not only bring about an improvement in the aspect of repair, but also an all-around improvement in aptitude, bloodline power, and other aspects.”
Hearing those words, Ye Xiao nodded.
As expected, it was right not to abandon his clansmen. If he had really abandoned them, perhaps he would not have been able to advance to this cultivation level so quickly, right?
This thing was not like money. If it was distributed to other people, they would not receive any feedback. Things like bloodline gifts were a good thing that went both ways.
Even if their clansmen received their gifts, they would still give back a portion of their gifts.
It was probably an existence that was allowed in the universe’s origin laws.
It was like a bonus in a game!
Sacred Sovereign Shang continued to speak.
