The Post Sky Tipping Era-Chapter 1206 - 968: Three Divine Emperors

"Taiyi Heavenly King, the five challengers have been chosen, and your clash will take place on the Heavenly God Platform in three days. Several Divine Emperors will personally observe the battle, so please prepare yourself."

"If you win, the Divine Emperors have deliberated and decided to multiply your benefits tenfold, and grant you three layers of Emperor Light as protection, along with an opportunity to enter the Heavenly Venerate Secret Realm."

"If defeated, you must relinquish the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon."

On this day, a Royal Family Heavenly King arrived, carrying the Emperor’s Order, to convey the time and place of the duel, the rewards, and the consequences.

Awakened, Li Yi arrived treading on Yin Yang Qi and accepted the Emperor’s Order: "Three days later? I understand, I will be there on time."

The Heavenly King who conveyed the message departed.

Subsequently, Cold Mountain Heavenly King and several other Heavenly Kings arrived, she spoke: "Taiyi, I followed your instructions to recruit Guardian Heavenly Kings, and these ten Heavenly Kings are willing to become your Guardian Heavenly Kings."

"They are respectively, Black Ice Heavenly King, Seven Emotions Heavenly King, Frost-shocking Heavenly King, and Tiger Guardian Heavenly King."

She took the opportunity to introduce the Heavenly Kings.

"Greetings, Taiyi Heavenly King," the four Heavenly Kings respectfully bowed.

Li Yi glanced at them and said, "No need for formality, we are all family now, and it’s not easy for everyone to come and assist me during this crisis. Taiyi is deeply grateful."

"As this is our first meeting, I have nothing to gift, so I’ll give each of you fifty pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water. May it aid the Divine Kings."

Knowing the Heavenly God Clan is wealthy beyond measure, Li Yi was not stingy, gifting fifty pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water per person.

Bear in mind that when Li Yi returned to the Heavenly God Clan as a direct lineage of the Royal Family, he only received a hundred pounds, but he took ten thousand pounds from Huaqing Emperor Palace, and personally acquired five thousand pounds, so two hundred pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water is nothing to him now.

However, fifty pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water is a considerable fortune for a Heavenly God Clan Heavenly King.

Imagine that one Heavenly King Soldier is only worth two pounds of Nine Heavens Divine Water, fifty pounds are enough to acquire over twenty Heavenly King Soldiers, how is it not a substantial fortune.

Yet, the cost of Cultivator Armor is not significant; the major expenditure is the Nine Heavens Divine Water itself, always valuable for wealth, cultivation, healing, and many strong individuals use it as sustenance long-term because it can refine the body, increase potential, providing a chance to continue growing stronger.

"Thank you, Taiyi," the four Heavenly Kings rejoiced inwardly, their perception of Taiyi immediately improved significantly.

This treatment rivals even the Royal Family Heavenly Kings.

However, what they truly value is not the Nine Heavens Divine Water, but Taiyi’s direct lineage bloodline, which can change the circumstances for their tribes only if obtained.

But having just pledged allegiance, it’s naturally impossible to make such excessive demands right now.

Nonetheless, the future is long, and with prolonged interaction, opportunities are bound to arise.

"Please bear with me and reside in my Taiyi Heavenly King Palace for now, once this contest ends, I will prepare a Heavenly King Palace for each of you," Li Yi continued.

As long as he defeats his opponents this time, his benefits will increase tenfold, then various resources from the Royal Family Treasure Vault will be at his disposal, a few palaces will be trivial.

After all, it won’t be his own money being spent.

The four Heavenly Kings expressed gratitude once again, pleasantly surprised that the treatment was unexpectedly high, even surpassing the Royal Family Heavenly Kings.’

"All future affairs will be arranged by Cold Mountain Heavenly King, and the Divine Generals will be managed by you," Li Yi then assigned Cold Mountain Heavenly King to oversee everything.

After all, with more people now, certain rules must be established.

"Yes, Taiyi," Cold Mountain Heavenly King agreed.

The other four Heavenly Kings had no objections, considering Cold Mountain Heavenly King was the earliest Guardian Heavenly King beside Taiyi, it was natural for her status to rise accordingly.

After Li Yi briefly addressed these matters, he turned back.

The Time Emperor Furnace was refining Heavenly Venerate Blood, now is the time to harvest the final portion of Power of Creation for preparation for the battle in three days.

The three days passed quickly.

On this day.

Within the Royal Family territory lies a special Secret Realm, resembling a starry sky, boundless, and within the silent empty cosmos floats a colossal stone platform.

The platform appears simple but is actually transformed from a Chaos Stone. This Chaos Stone has little practical use, its sole feature is its hardness, indestructible.

Even with a Divine Emperor’s intervention, it is difficult to shatter the Chaos Stone.

Such a massive Chaos Stone, the Heavenly Venerate of the Heavenly God Clan unknown where it came from, was directly placed in the Heavenly God Country, later named the Heavenly God Platform for the Heavenly God Clan’s strong ones to duel and spar.

Because only in this way, the aftermath of the battle won’t cause destruction to the clan’s land.

However, today.

Many Flying Boats suddenly appeared in this Secret Realm, and many palaces were situated in the nearby starry sky. Numerous powerful figures of the Heavenly God Clan chose to come early to watch the battle.

Even the Divine Emperors chose to personally witness the event.

And there were three of them.

They were Emperor Haoguang, Divine Emperor Zhenyue, and Nine Heavens Divine Emperor.

The three Divine Emperors were located at three positions in this starry sky. Their appearance was both to awe the entire scene and to control the situation. Of course, they also wanted to see the few Divine Emperor Seeds of the future Heavenly God Clan.

"This time, Taiyi is wanting to challenge the entire foundation of the Heavenly God Clan single-handedly. It’s indeed a bit overconfident, but it’s also good to take this opportunity to see who among the five people obtaining quotas this time has the most potential to become a Divine Emperor."

The Nine Heavens Divine Emperor was smiling as he spoke. Although he stood casually in the starry sky, his Emperor Light was brilliant, seemingly illuminating the heavens, with His mighty power incalculable.

"The foundation of our Heavenly God Clan still exists. I paid a little attention to the struggle for quotas this time. If not for that Taiyi insisting on only fighting five battles, we could have found ten Divine Emperor Seeds. Besides, the timing of this competition was too rushed, and many powerful Heavenly Kings haven’t had time to return." Divine Emperor Zhenyue calmly stated.

"Divine Emperor Zhenyue, you have raised a fine son quietly, with a bloodline returning to the ancestor, possessing a portion of Heavenly Venerate Blood. It’s extraordinary. If not for this affair of the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon, you would probably still be hiding it. It’s not simple." The Nine Heavens Divine Emperor laughed.

Divine Emperor Zhenyue said, "Though the bloodline returns to the ancestor, it’s still unknown whether he can become a Divine Emperor. Holding him too high now is not good for him. Let’s wait until he truly becomes a Divine Emperor. Throughout history, how many outstanding talents have emerged within the Heavenly God Clan? Yet, how many have truly become Divine Emperors?"

"We have all been through this, and we all understand this point in our hearts."

He wasn’t because his young son’s strong potential was happy. Becoming a Heavenly Emperor is not just about having potential. Even strong potential only proves that you have the opportunity to claim the title of emperor.

But whether the seed can sprout and eventually grow into a towering tree, no one knows.

So the Divine Emperor Seed, after all, is just a seed.

"Haoguang, why don’t you speak? This Taiyi is a genius you personally discovered, and he is a brand-new direct royal family bloodline. Moreover, he held a Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon while still in the Heavenly General Realm and directly advanced to Heavenly King within two years of holding the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon. Now, he is opposing all our clan’s Heavenly Kings alone. Such courage and talent are truly frightening," the Nine Heavens Divine Emperor said, "But don’t worry, regardless of the outcome of this battle, I will ensure his safety."

Emperor Haoguang looked displeased, merely snorting heavily: "If not being forced, why would Taiyi choose to do so? It’s just a Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon. Is it shameful for a direct royal family member to hold it? As the Human Clan says, fat water doesn’t flow to outsiders’ fields. Taiyi is one of our clan members. Why do you all fight internally over a Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon?"

"The Heavenly Kings within the clan desire the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon too much, even I can hardly suppress it," Divine Emperor Zhenyue said blandly.

"It’s just an excuse. There’s no need to say it out loud, as it makes you sound like a scheming villain, which doesn’t align with our Heavenly God Clan’s style," Emperor Haoguang said, "I examined the Time Emperor Furnace. It’s a Heavenly Emperor Weapon for auxiliary cultivation and almost useless for Divine Emperors. Taiyi’s swift advancement to a Heavenly King is mostly due to the Time Emperor Furnace. Letting him continue to cultivate with it is beneficial."

"If the Royal Family wanted to borrow it, they could negotiate. Why go through it this way? I heard from my subordinates that the Royal Family’s Heavenly Kings rushed onto the World Boat to seize it."

"Since when has the Royal Family also started to bully the weak? If they are so fond of the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon, why don’t they come to snatch mine? If Taiyi hadn’t advanced to a Heavenly King and suppressed those three Royal Family Heavenly Kings, the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon would indeed have been taken."

Upon saying this, Emperor Haoguang coldly swept his eyes around: "If this had happened, and a direct royal family member was forced to leave, how would you explain?"

"The bloodline power of the True Dragon Clan is coveted by all clans in the Heavenly Realm, especially our direct royal family members. If Taiyi defected to other races, the Heavenly Realm might see the emergence of another Heavenly God Clan."

"If this matter reaches the Heavenly Venerate’s ears, who knows what will happen when the Heavenly Venerate becomes angry?"

"I think some people in the clan have been living comfortably for too long and don’t fully understand how fierce the competition between the various clans in the Heavenly Realm is. They shouldn’t just focus on immediate benefits. If the Heavenly God Clan declines, we Divine Emperors will be the first to suffer."

"Haoguang, don’t speak so sharply," Divine Emperor Zhenyue said.

Haoguang snorted heavily: "You all understand these principles. It’s just that some people are selfish and want to pave the way for their Divine Emperor Seeds in the clan, so they are willing to sacrifice the interests of the entire Heavenly God Clan."

"A whole new direct royal family bloodline returning, how important is that to the entire Heavenly God Clan? Do I need to keep repeating it?"

Zhenyue Heavenly King frowned deeply, understanding that Haoguang was hinting at him.

Because his younger son’s bloodline returned to the ancestor, possessing Heavenly Venerate potential, becoming a Divine Emperor in the future was inevitable. If he could take the Time Emperor Furnace, it wouldn’t only shorten the time to becoming a Divine Emperor but also make the path of the Divine Emperor’s power more stable.

Of course.

No one ever thought of taking Taiyi’s life.

They may all have their selfish motives, but they could never be so short-sighted. Taiyi’s bloodline is indeed precious, and without it, it would be a huge blow to the Heavenly God Clan.

"Regardless of the outcome of this battle, I will give him a spot in the next Heavenly Venerate Secret Realm. How about that? The hidden benefits will also be increased several times." Divine Emperor Zhenyue finally spoke.

Emperor Haoguang glanced at him and said no more, considered to give tacit approval.

The matter had already happened, and both sides were merely playing a game and making a compromise, which was the compensation he could fight for Taiyi.

"Alright, everyone, say no more. The time has come, and the clansmen have all arrived. Let’s take a good look at this competition. If he truly is a Divine Emperor Seed, we will naturally increase the benefits and cultivate him well," the Nine Heavens Divine Emperor, seeing both sides had reached an agreement, came forward to ease the atmosphere immediately.
