With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World-Chapter 201 - 198: The Withered Tomb in the Mountains
The young emperor felt as if he could hardly breathe.
His hand instinctively pressed onto the imperial decree.
From this moment on, it represented the will of the current Emperor Monarch.
The Hongg Dynasty had numerous cultivators, and generations ago, an Emperor had cooperated with a great cultivator to manifest the Emperor’s Qi of the dynasty.
From then on, subsequent emperors could use the Emperor’s Qi to protect themselves.
The entire Imperial Court machine only recognized decrees with Emperor’s Qi; otherwise, the Centipede Demon wouldn’t have needed to go through all this trouble.
"You... you..." The young emperor could not utter a complete word anymore.
At this moment, he regretted not submitting to the Sword Mountain River.
The centipede monster’s form began to grow massive as the decree was being disseminated. The citizens of the Imperial Capital all began to move, not knowing why, but under the urging of officials at all levels, they obediently followed the decree.
"I, Yu Qianzhu, today will break through this Demon Pill barrier and condense the true form of the Demon Race! Hahaha!"
The centipede monster, no, Yu Qianzhu, laughed wildly, joy sparkling in the three pairs of eyes on his massive head.
The Demon Pill Realm of demon cultivators is equivalent to the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Realm of cultivators, and the Demon Body Realm is breaking through the Foundation Establishment to reach the Golden Core.
With the strength of the Golden Core, the vastness of the world is his to roam, as long as he doesn’t crash into the sword tips of those sword cultivators from Sword Mountain River.
Out of Yu Qianzhu’s countless legs, one transformed into a hand, pressing onto the young emperor’s head.
A look of enjoyment and delight appeared on Yu Qianzhu’s grotesque face.
He was absorbing the Emperor’s Qi from the young emperor.
Legend has it that there are Dragon Race beings, the most powerful within the Demon Race, and all demons have the hope of transforming into a dragon. Even creatures like him have a chance to transform, one way being to absorb the Emperor’s Qi from a dynasty’s ruler. Of course, to truly achieve the status of a Dragon Race, this method would at least require the target to be from a huge dynasty like Sword Mountain River.
However, absorbing the Emperor’s Qi at the moment was greatly beneficial to Qianzhu.
"Demon Body... Hahaha..."
"Boom———————"
A white rainbow pierced through the sky, akin to the wrath of a Celestial God, turning the grand palace into dust in an instant, and countless demon cultivators vanished under the white light.
Yu Qianzhu’s incredibly tough demon body was split in half, flying backward.
The young emperor stared blankly, lifting his head.
The intricately carved palace ceiling had disappeared. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Through the opening in the ceiling, he could see the entire sky gray, except for a massive cloud hole at the center through which warm sunlight shone.
The sunlight illuminated a figure in white carrying a sword.
The sword at his waist was unsheathed.
From above, Pei Min looked down at the chaos below, his expression unwavering.
In a very short time, all the demon cultivators were either dead or in hiding.
Even the centipede monster with the most formidable aura was no exception, hiding its form, making it difficult even for Pei Min’s White Rainbow Sword Eye to detect its presence.
"Scum of the Broken Cocoon Alliance..."
Pei Min pressed one finger onto the sword tip, and in the next second, a river of violet Qi descended from the sky, coalescing into sword light. The light shone throughout the palace hall, revealing all the evil.
Pei Min’s figure flashed; the white light paused.
Sword light scattered, and that centipede demon’s body was chopped into several pieces, scattered on the ground.
"Ah?" The young emperor sat down on the ground in disbelief.
That was almost a Great Demon breakthrough, even Xiao Changfeng, the legendary general who had killed thousands and was undefeated, was no match for it...
"You... you are..."
"Pei Min, Inner Courtyard disciple of the Battle Absolute Sword Institute in the Wood Element Ding Domain of Sword Mountain River."
The sword returned to its sheath; the audience was silent.
[You swiftly arrived at the Hongg Dynasty Palace and with one sword, slew the demon cultivator controlling the court.]
[The Emperor of the Hongg Dynasty is willing to submit to Sword Mountain River, renaming the dynasty as Hongjian Dynasty.]
[You are pleased, subduing or establishing a new Sword Dynasty is a great achievement. Many disciples unable to enter the Inner Courtyard will gain merits by supporting Sword Dynasties; most Sword Dynasties under Sword Mountain River are due to this, affording you considerable merit. You casually imparted a set of swordsmanship to the young emperor.]
[The young emperor is willing to treat you as the State Preceptor, offering countless treasures, which you gladly accept, discovering among them a damaged sword talisman and several major pills. You plan to refine some auxiliary pills to enhance your foundation in preparation for a Golden Core breakthrough...]
Sword Mountain River’s sword cultivators are exceptionally fierce, with minimal need for pills, often improving cultivation purely through absorbing spiritual Qi.
However, Pei Min was aware of the gap between Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm and Sword Mountain River, where the arrays were exceptionally unique, greatly enhancing sword cultivation techniques. Ingesting pills would interfere with this enhancement.
Moreover, sword cultivators are highly encouraged to break through to the Golden Core using sheer strength instead of pills. That said, this stage would be more difficult, and the proportion using pills to break through has increased significantly.
Nevertheless, Pei Min knows many Fourth-grade Pill formulas, some of which greatly benefit Essence, Qi, and Spirit, enhancing the foundation.
[You have some doubts about this broken sword talisman but merely store it in your storage bag.]
[With the summons from the center, the forces loyal to the court finally withstand the Imperial Capital. At the young emperor’s command, they follow you to eradicate the forces of the Broken Cocoon Alliance within the Imperial Capital.]
[One day later, a black-clad assassin tried to sneak attack you, but you slew him with one sword...]
[Seven days later, you, alone with a sword, entered South Mountain Forest, annihilated thousands of demon cultivators, and slew three Great Demons at the limit of the Demon Pill on par with Foundation Establishment Peak, destroying the South Mountain Forest’s Broken Cocoon Alliance Headquarters...]
[Sixteen days later, you slew an old Daoist blocking your way with one sword.]
[A month later, you had a pleasant conversation with Mr. Tianyan, who asked why you did not kill him. You simply pointed to his aura, indicating a trace of sharpness in the profound aura. While influencing you, you unknowingly taught Mr. Tianyan an enhanced version of the Yangwu Sword Technique.]
[Mr. Tianyan sighed without refusing. You were overjoyed; with the help of Mr. Tianyan, this Great Scholar, the Yangwu Sword Technique might achieve a breakthrough.]
[Residing in the Hongg Dynasty for three months, you with one sword slew demons, ghosts, and demon Dao practitioners, eliminating all monsters and goblins within the Hongg Dynasty, erasing traces of the Broken Cocoon Alliance from the dynasty.]
[In the Celestial Sword Calendar’s 97,947th year of September, you submitted the submission letter, and Sword Mountain River sent someone, officially accepting the Hongg Dynasty under their name, renaming it the Hongjian Dynasty, granting you significant merit.]
[In the Celestial Sword Calendar’s 97,948th year, you deciphered the sword talisman and, following its indication, entered a deep mountain.]
[In the same year, while exploring the deep mountain, you discovered a desolate burial mound and received a legacy as powerful as the White Rainbow Sword Manual from it.]
[And within, the soul attempted to possess you. You, holding righteousness in your mouth, transformed your tongue into a sharp sword, shouted furiously, and the soul dissipated.]
[Within the desolate mound, you unexpectedly found a jade talisman...]
