Divine King of Honour-Chapter 1492: Heart of a Strong One

"After Sister Yanran ascended, she joined a small sect in the Immortal Realm called the Hanhai Divine Sect. Although this sect is small, it is well-resourced, and Sister Yanran has always worked hard on her cultivation, demonstrating exceptional talent."

Zhao Yanyun said.

Xu Nian nodded.

He had heard a bit about the Hanhai Divine Sect; this sect is quite mysterious. Although not large in power, it is indeed a formidable sect.

"What happened afterward?" Xu Nian hurriedly asked.

"After displaying her exceptional talent, Sister Yanran received the sect’s attention and was nurtured as a key disciple. There’s a legend in the Hanhai Divine Sect, and it was because of this legend that Sister Yanran’s fate changed." Zhao Yanyun said.

"What legend?" Xu Nian asked.

"The legend is about the Netherworld God. It’s rumored that the Hanhai Divine Sect was founded by the Netherworld God, also known as the Netherworld Empress. It is said that every hundred thousand years, the Netherworld Empress changes her body, and the purpose of the Hanhai Divine Sect is to select a suitable body for the Netherworld God." Zhao Yanyun said.

"The Netherworld God? Is she truly a Divine-level expert?" Xu Nian asked.

"Yes, a true Divine-level expert. She is different from a Demigod. The Netherworld is a special place, and even upon reaching the Divine level, if you don’t wish to ascend, you can remain. Therefore, the Netherworld God stayed and became the Netherworld Lord, ruling the entire Netherworld with unfathomable strength." Zhao Yanyun said.

"So, you mean she chose Yanran?" Xu Nian immediately asked.

"Yes, this time, the Netherworld Lord selected Leng Yanran. If Leng Yanran doesn’t agree, the Netherworld Lord will kill you. Leng Yanran, for your sake, had to agree. She could never stand by and watch you die." Zhao Yanyun said.

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian’s head buzzed.

Could the Netherworld Lord really threaten Yanran with his life?

Such a Divine-level expert!

"The Netherworld Lord is unable to leave the Netherworld and enter the Immortal Realm, right?" Xu Nian asked.

"Yes, but the Netherworld Lord’s body separation can." Zhao Yanyun said.

Indeed, if the Netherworld Lord truly wanted to kill him, he wouldn’t have the slightest power to resist, even against a mere body separation.

Even with the Chaos Divine Palace, the opponent could still kill him before he entered it.

Divine-level experts are beyond what he can currently contend with.

Not to mention Divine-level, he couldn’t even resist an Immortal Emperor.

Thinking of this, a strong surge of hostility rose in Xu Nian’s heart.

"So Yanran refused to absorb the Divine Core because she was afraid that after absorbing it, the Netherworld Lord would feel threatened and directly come for me?" Xu Nian said angrily.

"Yes, I think that’s her reasoning. The Netherworld Lord has a hundred years before she needs to change bodies again and has requested Sister Yanran to go to the Netherworld within a hundred years." Zhao Yanyun said.

"A hundred years?"

Xu Nian clenched his fists.

In a hundred years, could he match the Netherworld Lord?

With that thought, Xu Nian immediately disappeared from where he stood.

"Master, do you know how powerful the Netherworld Lord is?" Xu Nian immediately asked.

"The Netherworld Lord? Why do you bring her up?" Emperor Ye Tian showed a trace of surprise.

"Is she very strong? Can I defeat her within a hundred years?" Xu Nian asked hastily.

"A hundred years? You must be dreaming. I’ve heard of her. At my peak, I could easily wipe her out, but for you, she’s an unfathomable existence because she is at the Daluo God Peak Level." Emperor Ye Tian said.

"Daluo God Peak?" Xu Nian instantly felt a tremendous powerlessness.

He had assumed the Netherworld Lord was merely at the Divine Level.

But he never thought she was actually at the Daluo God Peak.

What level is Daluo God Peak?

Above the Divine Realm is the God, and only above the God is the Daluo God Peak.

Currently, he is far from reaching the Divine Realm, let alone the Daluo God Peak. How could he possibly be her match?

"Is there really no way at all?"

Xu Nian despaired silently to himself.

Does he really have to watch Leng Yanran give her body to the Netherworld Lord?

"What has happened?" Emperor Ye Tian asked in surprise, looking at Xu Nian.

Xu Nian then recounted the entire incident to Emperor Ye Tian.

After hearing this, Emperor Ye Tian frowned slightly: "Indeed, because the Netherworld Lord is cultivated from a strand of Innate Yin Spirit in the Netherworld. Her physical body was not innately born, so she cannot achieve the God King level. Every hundred thousand years, she changes bodies to attempt to break through to the God King Realm."

Xu Nian clenched his fists.

He did not care what the purpose of the Netherworld Lord was.

Seizing Leng Yanran’s body was unacceptable.

"Leng Yanran’s actions aren’t wrong. If she doesn’t agree, the Netherworld Lord might really kill you. If she truly intended to kill you, not even I could stop her in my current state. The only thing to blame is your weakness." Emperor Ye Tian said.

Xu Nian clenched his fists, his eyes filled with intense unwillingness.

"Must I really just watch Yanran sacrifice herself for me?" Xu Nian thought unwillingly.

"All the Netherworld Lord wants is Leng Yanran’s body. Leng Yanran’s soul can still live and continue to cultivate the Yin Spirit. If she reaches Great Perfection, she can also achieve the Daluo God Peak." Emperor Ye Tian said.

"That’s not acceptable!" Xu Nian shouted angrily.

"Then you should work hard in your cultivation. In a hundred years, even if you may not be able to defeat the Netherworld Lord, at least you must ensure you won’t be killed by her. The Netherworld Lord cannot leave the Netherworld, and even if her body separation reaches the Immortal Realm, it will be limited by the rules there, at most reaching the Demigod Level. As long as you can survive against a Demigod, she won’t be able to threaten Leng Yanran with you." Emperor Ye Tian said.

"Right, as long as she cannot kill me, Yanran will not be threatened." Xu Nian’s eyes lit up.

A brilliant light of determination shone in his eyes.

He had been caught in a dead-end, thinking he had to defeat the Netherworld Lord.

But with Emperor Ye Tian’s guidance, he realized that point.

Defeating the Netherworld Lord might be difficult, but there are definitely more ways to survive against her than to defeat her.

"Thank you for your guidance, Master!" Xu Nian immediately said.

"No need to thank me. Train well. Only with strong personal strength can you resist any threat. If you ever reach the Divine World, you’ll face threats far greater than the Netherworld Lord." Emperor Ye Tian said.

In Xu Nian’s eyes, a fierce fighting spirit erupted.

Yes!

The Netherworld Lord, being merely a Daluo God, already gave him a great sense of powerlessness.

And above the Daluo God, there are still the Divine King, Divine Emperor, and even Divine Sovereign.

"Strength, I must become stronger. Whether it’s Murong Xue or Leng Yanran, without sufficient strength, I can only watch my loved ones disappear." Xu Nian’s eyes were extraordinarily firm.

Xu Nian’s heart as a strong-willed protagonist surged intensely at this moment.
