Chapter 143 - Dinner Tonight (1/2)

"Yes, they are all transcendent and grandmaster-level cultivation techniques.

"After all, a grandmaster-level cultivation technique is enough to raise the cultivation of a talented genius to the divine sect."

"I read from a book that someone said that there are stronger cultivation techniques above grandmaster level cultivation techniques. Is that true?"

Fa Zheng paused for a moment before nodding.

"It's like this. Above grandmaster-level cultivation techniques, there is a cultivation technique called the imperial technique!

"It's rumored that cultivating an imperial technique can allow one's strength to reach the legendary emperor rank.

"This involves another level of cultivation.

"This level isn't known by ordinary people because there are very few existences who can reach that level.

"They are all the top fighting strength of the human race."

"Above the divine sect is the emperor rank? Like the ancient emperor?"

"No, above the divine sect is the king rank! Above the king rank is the emperor rank.

"The emperor rank does not describe the level of cultivation. The emperor refers to a person who is able to activate the great spiritual energy because he is capable of summoning the crisis of the human race.

"How should I put it?

"This penniless monk does not have a clear understanding. All I know is that after the cultivation level of mankind reached the peak of the emperor rank, it would be restricted by a certain power of laws. Either they would break through to a stronger level, or they would fall into ashes.

"The specifics as for what level it was, this penniless monk is not familiar with it. That was already beyond the scope of this penniless monk's understanding.

"However, according to legend, our Buddhist sect's patriarch seemed to have transcended the emperor rank. However, he had already existed for a very long time, so this penniless monk wasn't sure whether it was real or not.

"This penniless monk only knew that the emperor seemed to be an existence that could transcend the shackles of the law. In other words, the emperor's cultivation wouldn't be suppressed by the law after he surpassed the ordinary emperor rank, he would be able to continuously raise his cultivation and unleash greater battle prowess.

"This is also the reason why humans desire the emperor so much."

Ye Xiao's heart trembled. He did not expect that there were two major ranks above the divine sect, the king rank, and the emperor rank.

Above the emperor rank, there was actually an even more powerful mysterious existence.

The imperial technique was already able to allow one to cultivate to the emperor rank. Does that mean that the synthesis of imperial techniques was extremely likely to be a cultivation technique cultivated by existences above the emperor rank?

That caused Ye Xiao's heart to heat up.

It also caused him to have an even deeper desire to chase after that unknown and mysterious realm.

However, very quickly, Ye Xiao reacted.

"That's not right. You said earlier that the peak of the emperor rank would be suppressed by the natural law, but the emperor rank can be broken through. If they advance to a higher level, wouldn't they be free from the restriction of the natural laws?

"Then, wouldn't they be able to display a power stronger than that of an ordinary emperor rank like the emperor? Is it to protect humans?"

"Theoretically, that's true. However, there's a legend that goes like this. After breaking through that layer of restriction, they would disappear from this world as well.

"In fact, there are very few martial arts experts who can cultivate to the emperor rank. Those who can advance to the emperor rank can be counted on one's fingers. Most of them have turned into ashes.

"Perhaps in history, there would be one or two people who could advance to that level. However, there were very few records of the human race even breaking through to the emperor rank, so there was no need to talk about the higher levels.

"Therefore, it was impossible to know what the situation was like above the emperor rank."

"I see."

Ye Xiao vaguely had some thoughts in his heart.

It seemed that advancing to the emperor rank and above was very risky. Moreover, even if he advanced he did not know what would happen in the future.

However, an ordinary emperor rank should only have imperial techniques.

He did not know if his divine soul's Golden Book could synthesize with a cultivation technique of a higher level.

If he could condense a cultivation technique of a higher level, he might be able to break through that layer of restriction.

That emperor title was really tempting.

With the protection of the human race's great luck, he could not be bound by the power of laws and could continue to cultivate to become infinitely stronger. It was simply cheating!

He just did not know if he would be lucky enough to become an emperor!

That was because Ye Xiao did not like to take risks. Compared to the ordinary emperor rank, he needed to advance to the test. He wanted to become an emperor and win once and for all.

Those two days, Ye Xiao had been reading books in the library and had a slight understanding of the knowledge of the emperor.

When the crisis of the human race came, there would be many holy sons and holy maidens born in the world. If even one advanced to the grandmaster rank, the phenomenon of heaven and earth would be revealed.

Such people would receive great efforts from the country to nurture them. They would go through arduous growth and countless dangers. They would also need great luck to have a chance to hold on until the end and become one in ten thousand emperors of the human race.

In the past few hundred years of the human race, there had been many holy sons and holy maidens, but there had never been any emperor.

From that point, Ye Xiao did not have much confidence in himself.

That was because he had already advanced to the divine sect and had yet to show any signs of abnormality.

Not even once.

It was almost impossible for him to become an emperor with that kind of self.

Thinking about it, he felt a little uncomfortable. That meant that his luck was not good enough. He had progrssed so well, yet he did not have the qualifications to open it.

He really wanted to know what kind of stunning figure was someone who could become a holy maiden and a holy son!

To be qualified to become the legendary emperor, their talent had reached an unknown level.

Compared to the holy sons and maidens, was he strong or weak?

Seeing Ye Xiao eating absent-mindedly, Fa Zheng chuckled and consoled him,
