  He Zhiwu, He Fei, and Zhang Yijia all backed away to a corner of the hall. They watched the distorted Wang Na screaming hysterically, not knowing what to say to pacify her.

  Wang Na vented her anger for a good while before she calmed down and stopped destroying things in the hall.

  “What else did you found out?” After Wang Na took a deep breath, she turned around and asked the three, who were almost huddling in a corner of the hall.

  He Fei pondered if he should say anything further, but in the end he took a small step forward, “The rumors flying around outside say that some ancestors tried to threaten Huwang Xiao, demanding the divine grade spirit stone treasure, but all of them were already killed by Huwang Xiao!”

  “Some?” Wang Na’s eyes were round as fists, “Are you sure it was Huwang Xiao who killed them? He alone?”

  “That is what the rumors say, that Huwang Xiao killed them himself.” He Fei replied.

  Wang Na sucked in a breath of cold air, urging, “Which ancestors?”

  “There is Evil Ghost Ancestor, Unscrupulous Old Monster, Green Devil, …” He Fei listed out a total of thirteen names.

  Every name caused Wang Na’s eyes to widen a fraction with disbelief, confoundment, and terror; terror birthed from the very core of her soul.

  Each of these ancestors and old monsters mentioned were existences whose names sent a shiver down the spine all the four galaxies!

  Her own strength could only occupy the bottom place amongst the thirteen people. And the strongest one among the thirteen, the Evil Ghost Ancestor, was an existence that she dreaded.

  Yet, even he died? Killed by Huwang Xiao’s hands?!

  “Impossible, absolutely impossible!!” When He Fei finished, Wang Na was hysterical again, shrieking sharply, “Huwang Xiao that rotten bastard, how is it possible? He cannot possibly have this strength. Right, that must be it, it must be those ancestors that signed blood contracts with him who acted, it’s them who killed those thirteen ancestors, definitely not Huwang Xiao!”

  He Zhiwu, He Fei, and Zhang Yijia secretly exchanged a look in silence. In truth, the three of them also found it hard to believe that it was Huwang Xiao who killed those infamous masters.

  As strong as Huwang Xiao could be, he was still a measly God Realm cultivator. Would a mere God Realm cultivator have the ability to kill a Highgod Realm master? One couldn’t help but feel ridiculous hearing such rumors.

  Not to mention the fact that those thirteen ancestors weren’t people who had broken through to Highgod Realm for a mere day or two, each person’s name had shaken the four galaxies at one point. The weakest of them was a peak mid-First Order Highgod Realm master. Also, the Evil Ghost Ancestor was an existence comparable to an early Second Order Highgod Realm.

  A God Realm cultivator killing an early Second Order Highgod Realm master? It was really the biggest joke ever.

  …

  The Azure Dragon Institute’s main hall.

  All the institute’s Grand Elders were gathered, talking in low, cautious whispers into the ear next to them. The main hall buzzed, the topic of their discussions being Huwang Xiao.

  The Azure Dragon Institute Principal Qin Yi sat on the main host seat, expressionless. No one could tell what he was thinking.

  A while later, Qin Yi made a waving motion in the air.

  The main hall immediately quieted down.

  “Everyone, what are your thoughts on the matter?” Qin Yi spoke.

  Grand Elder Pan Li stood up saying, “Saying that Huwang Xiao alone killed the Evil Ghost Ancestor, Unscrupulous Ancestor, and the other masters can be nothing but fabrication. Huwang Xiao deliberately made an uproar in order to a create a favorable situation for himself before the Highgod Advancement Tournament begins!”

  “That’s it, his intentions are to create an unseen pressure for the various talented disciples that will be participating in the Highgod Advancement Tournament. This way, no one would dare to compete with him for the first place.” Grand Elder Tang Qian also stood up to state his opinion.

  Following that, more and more Azure Dragon Institute Grand Elders chimed in. Without exception, all of them were adamant that Huwang Xiao was making things up.

  Qin Yi pressed his hand down on the air again to stop everyone from clamoring, “Even if this matter is Huwang Xiao’s fabrication, the matter of Red Robed Supreme and the other eight Highgod Realm masters serving Huwang Xiao, signing blood contract with him is probably true.”

  Everyone had no answer.

  “Institute Principal, letting things as they are now is detrimental to us, there will be more and more Highgod Realm masters going to Huwang Xiao’s side.” Another Grand Elder solemnly stated, “We should immediately gather other super families’ masters together and kill Huwang Xiao.”

  “I second that, things will only grow worse if they're allowed to continue in this direction. Perhaps, one day, our Azure Dragon Institute will be destroyed by him!”

  “Kill Huwang Xiao!”

  Other Grand Elders stood up in support.

  Qin Yi sighed softly and said, “Even if we want to kill Huwang Xiao now, it is easier said than done. With what excuse are we to gather other masters to kill Huwang Xiao? Also, don’t you all forget, behind Huwang Xiao are Feng Yang and the Ascending Moon Old Man.”

  The hall fell into silence.

  “But, I've just received news from the forbidden land, Mingzhi has succeeded in obtaining the Old Ancestor Yang Gang’s heritage. Moreover, he has formed his godhead, breaking into the Highgod Realm!” Just as the hall fell into a heavy silence, Qin Yi’s voice resonated.

  All the present Grand Elders were stunned, then exclaimed.

  “Congratulations, Institute Principal! Mingzhi obtained the Old Ancestor Yang Gang’s inheritance and broke into the Highgod Realm. Adding his Azure Dragon Divine Fire on top of that, in this term’s Highgod Advancement Tournament, he’ll easily suppress all others, winning the first place!”

  “That’s right, as strong as that Huwang Xiao is, he’s not a match for Mingzhi!”

  In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere in the hall turned from somber to full of cheers, congratulatory voices resounding non-stop.

  Old Ancestor Yang Gang that Qin Yi spoke of was none other than the Azure Dragon Institute’s first Principal.

  Xiang Mingzhi successfully obtaining the heritage of the first Azure Dragon Institute Principal, Yang Gang, was truly a pleasant surprise to them at this point in time.

  “Also, Mingzhi’s godhead is a top rank ten godhead!” Qin Yi added. As he said this, the depth of his eyes shone, revealing his happiness.

  “What? Top rank ten godhead?!!”

  The buzzing hall now boiled with excitement, all the Azure Dragon Institute Grand Elders were ecstatic.

  The legendary top rank ten godhead!

  In the four galaxies, in so many tens of thousands of years, the highest ranked godhead ever condensed was a rank nine godhead!

  No one had ever succeeded in condensing a rank ten godhead!

  And now, Xiang Mingzhi, their Azure Dragon Institute Principal’s personal disciple, actually condensed a rank ten godhead. Furthermore, it was even a top rank ten godhead!

  “Therefore, even if more Highgod Realm masters are willing to serve Huwang Xiao, it is irrelevant. When the Highgod Advancement Tournament begins, Huwang Xiao will be dead for sure, and when he dies, his divine grade spirit stone treasure will fall into our Azure Dragon Institute’s hands!” Qin Yi snickered.

  “Right, with Mingzhi’s top rank ten godhead and his talent, killing Huwang Xiao will be as easy as turning over his palm!” Grand Elder Pan Li laughed loudly.

  “When that divine grade spirit stone treasure falls in
to our Azure Dragon Institute’s hands, we’ll imitate Huwang Xiao and recruit some Highgod Realm masters, conquering the four galaxies!” Another Grand Elder suggested in laughter.

  …

  With the Azure Dragon Institute intentionally leaking the news of Xiang Mingzhi obtaining their first Institute Principal Yang Gang’s heritage, breaking into the Highgod Realm and condensing a top rank ten godhead, the news spread over the four galaxies like wildfire. The four galaxies were in an uproar.

  From then on, it seemed like the four galaxies only had two topics of conversation, Huwang Xiao and Xiang Mingzhi.

  Hence, it didn’t take long for the news to reach Huwang Xiao’s ears.

  “Top rank ten godhead…” Huwang Xiao merely snickered in contempt.

  Ch.802

  Hearing that Xiang Mingzhi’s cultivation had advanced to the Highgod Realm and successfully condensed a top rank ten godhead that had never before appeared in the four galaxies’ history, Huwang Xiao was delighted instead.

  Perhaps in other’s eyes, a top rank ten godhead was something that one could only fantasize about and not realize, already the greatest genius alive, but it wasn't worth much in Huwang Xiao’s eyes.

  Based on Huwang Xiao’s current cultivation and talent, had he wanted to break through to Highgod Realm, there was a ninety percent chance he could succeed. Not to mention, with Huwang Xiao’s soul clarity level, his godhead would definitely be king rank or above. Chances were that it could even be emperor rank.

  However, neither the king rank nor the emperor rank was what he desired.

  What he desired and aimed for was the supreme rank godhead!

  The lord of all godheads!

  Therefore, before the eleventh hour of the Highgod Advancement Tournament began, Huwang Xiao would not attempt his breakthrough to the Highgod Realm.

  Now that Xiang Mingzhi had broken through to Highgod Realm, and with him possessing the Azure Dragon Divine Fire, it made it that much harder for Huwang Xiao to kill him during the tournament.

  ‘Looks like I must speed up the search for the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s remaining parts, then onward to the White Tiger Divine Fire.’ Huwang Xiao inwardly thought.

  Having decided, Huwang Xiao summoned the Phoenix Clan Ancestor Huwang Yixiao, telling him to announce to the outside world that he would continue recruiting Highgod Realm masters after half a year.

  If other Highgod Realm masters wanted serve the Huwang Clan Manor, they must do it within this half a year period. Huwang Xiao wasn’t one to wait indefinitely for them.

  For him, the most important task on his to-do list had always been to improve his own strength in preparation for the upcoming Highgod Advancement Tournament.

  At the moment, Huwang Xiao had twenty-three Highgod Realm masters guarding over the Huwang Clan Manor. Adding to that the Huwang Clan Manor’s own defensive formations he had arranged prior, it could be said that the Huwang Clan Manor was like an impenetrable fort; even if the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, and White Tiger Institute Principals personally came to attack the Huwang Clan Manor, Huwang Xiao would have no worries. Double the attack power and it still wouldn't be able to breach the Huwang Clan Manor’s defenses.

  Hence, whether there would be more Highgod Realm masters coming was already negligible to the Huwang Clan Manor’s safety.

  At Huwang Xiao’s announcement, that half a year later he would no longer be recruiting Highgod Realm masters, the upper echelon of the Azure Dragon Institute, Jiang Family, and other hostile forces breathed in relief.

  Time flowed, half a year quickly passed by.

  In this half a year, Huwang Xiao’s days were spent refining Amethyst Water Droplet Divine Pills in daytime and cultivating at night.

  In half a year, Huwang Xiao’s body continued to be tempered by the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird star force, further strengthening his True Dragon Physique on a daily basis. Internally, his god battle qi and the true immortal essence force in his dantian had increased, whereas the number of the time and space law threads in his soul sea had exceeded ten million!

  As far as he knew, in tens of thousands of years, there had yet to appear a cultivator at perfection stage Tenth Order God Realm who could reach this number of time and space law threads in the four galaxies.

  In this half a year, another five Highgod Realm masters joined the Huwang Clan Manor.

  This batch of masters dared not have ill intentions, conducting themselves with sincerity. After signing blood contracts with these five ancestors, the number of Highgod Realm masters guarding the Huwang Clan Manor increased to twenty-eight!

  Huwang Xiao had the fourteen masters who signed blood contracts with him make a defense line outside the Huwang Clan Manor, whereas Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi, the Phoenix Clan Ancestor, and the others remained within the manor.

  If it wasn’t a big problem, the outer defense line would be enough to deal with it.

  Half a year later, above a certain mountain range in the Sea of Flowers World, soft ripples appeared in the air as a figure emerged from the void. It was Huwang Xiao, who had left the Huwang Clan Manor in search of the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s sealed body parts.

  This Sea of Flowers World was located in the southern part of the Black Tortoise Galaxy and could be considered a medium-sized world surface, similar to Martial Spirit World.

  From the memories of the Piercing Sky Beast King’s son, Liang Guang, one of the locations where a part of the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s body was sealed was precisely this Sea of Flowers World.

  The Sea of Flowers World was a unique world surface in the Black Tortoise Galaxy. On this world surface, almost every land area was composed of plains, and on these endless plains grew a kind of large flower blooming with a pale red named Sunflower Orchid.

  The mountain range below Huwang Xiao was the only mountain range in the Sea of Flower World, called Beast Mountain Range.

  This Beast Mountain Range spans six to seven thousand li from one end to the other was and bigger than one could imagine. It was also a heaven for demonic beasts.

  In this Sea of Flowers World, the family disciples often venture into the Beast Mountain Range to hunt demonic beasts, either to sell them or as alchemy materials.

  According to Huwang Xiao’s judgment, the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s body must be sealed here, somewhere in this mountain range.

  Arriving above the Beast Mountain Range, Huwang Xiao spread his divine sense over the area, then he headed eastward. As far as he knows, there was a place called Death God Lake on the east side of the mountain range.

  It was known that, occasionally, there would be a strange demonic qi spreading out from the lake that could befuddle one’s heart, covering an area of several thousand li. If any human expert ran into this strange demonic qi, they would be turned into a monster that was neither human nor beast.

  According to rumors, a late-First Order Highgod Realm master once ventured down to the bottom of the Death God Lake to investigate the reason for the strange demonic qi. Shortly after that, he fled from the lake, terrified. In the next moment, his body mutated into a half human, half beast form. At the same time, he seemed to have lost his sanity, turning into a madman.

  From then on, this Death God Lake was labeled as the Sea of Flowers World’s terrifying forbidden land.

  Huwang Xiao reckoned that this strange demonic qi came from the Hundred Spirits Beast King body.

  It didn’t take long for him to reach Death God Lake.

  The lake wasn’t very big, with calm waters of deep emerald. Above the lake and its surroundings floated a grayish fog. Although faint, Huwang Xiao was able to recognize it at a glance. As expected, it was the hundred spirits demonic qi!

  This was proof that beneath this Death God Lake was sealed a part of the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s body.

  However, Huwang Xiao was baffled how the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s demonic qi had seeped out from the sealed space when its body part was still on the altar.r />
  Then a possibility occurred to him and his facial muscles tensed. ‘Could it be…?’

  Huwang Xiao swiftly summoned the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird Divine Fires, forming a protective barrier around his body. Not wasting time, he split the surface of the lake and dove to the bottom.

  If Huwang Xiao guessed it right, the reason why this demonic qi was able to seep out to the surface could only be due to the seal having loosened. That was the only logical explanation.

  The more Huwang Xiao pondered on the matter, the more convinced he was of this possibility, growing slightly anxious. In quick motions, Huwang Xiao pricked his finger for a drop of blood essence, offering the drop of blood as a sacrifice to perform the Blood Sacrifice Law.

  Just as the drop of blood disappeared below, powerful fluctuations came from underneath.

  Huwang Xiao’s eyes narrowed grimly.

  Different from the previous two times, the fluctuations this time were way more powerful, confirming his conjecture that the altar seal had loosened.

  Huwang Xiao sped as fast as he could toward the source of the energy fluctuations.

  One thousand zhang below the lake surface, Huwang Xiao reached the lakebed. Then, he drilled deep into the earth.

  Another thousand zhang deep, Huwang Xiao finally arrived at the gray space.

  The moment he stepped into the gray space, giant waves of gray demonic qi swirled violently from all directions. It was chaos.

  Watching this, the ominous feeling in Huwang Xiao’s heart increased. He hesitated for a moment before flying toward the source of the gray demonic qi.

  Although the seal had loosened and things had become even more dangerous, Huwang Xiao didn't have the liberty to think too much. He had the Black Tortoise and Vermilion Bird Divine Fires, he should be fine… right?

  Ch.803

  ‘Hopefully the seal hasn’t loosened too much.’ Huwang Xiao inwardly thought. If the seal had loosened too much, despite having two divine fires, he would most likely have to flee.

  The closer Huwang Xiao got to the source of the demonic qi, the denser and more violent it became. At one point, the demonic qi was so dense that it actually formed groups of gray clouds.
