Chapter 268: The Appearance of an Emperor
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
To be honest, a feast of that level…
It was impossible for all kings in the world to eat it every day.
Perhaps only Emperor realm martial artists in the space battlefield would have the chance to taste it, but he might not be able to eat it every day.
In terms of eating, Ye Xiao was truly the number one person in the world!
He knew how to eat too well, and he ate too well.
Eating so many good things every day, even a pig could become a grandmaster!
Of course, Beitang Ce knew that a large part of the reason why Ye Xiao became so strong was that his talent was too strong.
Talent, cultivation techniques, and martial arts resources were all the basic reasons for becoming stronger.
However, all success was built on talent.
If his talent was not enough, even if he were to eat a divine-level star beast every day, he would not be able to reach Ye Xiao’s current level.
“Aren’t you going to eat?”
Seeing that he had not moved his chopsticks, Ye Xiao could not help but ask.
Beitang Ce hurriedly picked up his chopsticks.
“Eat! Of course, I’m going to eat.”
After saying that, he took out a bottle of wine from his storage ring as he ate.
“This bottle of spirit wine has been in my collection for many years. I’ve never been willing to open my mouth. Today, let the two of us drink until we’re drunk.”
He poured out the spirit wine and also poured a cup for Huan Liuli.
Huan Liuli took a sniff and took a small sip. Then, she said with disdain,
“Your spirit wine is too bad, isn’t it? It’s not even half as good as master’s wine. Whether it’s the taste or the taste, it’s too far off.”
Beitang Ce was stunned and immediately slapped his head.
“Look at me, I’m embarrassing myself, aren’t I? Mr. Ye has so many delicious things, how can it be lacking in good wine? I’m really showing off in front of a martial arts expert.”
Ye Xiao smiled.
“It’s not that exaggerated. Liuli, take out the wine.”
“Alright.”
Huan Liuli quickly took out a bottle of wine. It was refined by Ye Xiao using honey, deer blood, and deer antler.
Although it was not long, the taste was already very good after being buried in the rockery by Ye Xiao and accelerated the absorption of the sun and moon essence and heaven and earth spiritual energy.
When Huan Liuli poured a glass for Beitang Ce, Beitang Ce took a sniff and his eyes immediately lit up.
“Good wine! Just by sniffing it, this old man can already feel that it’s extraordinary.”
He took a sip and praised it again and again.
“Good wine! It’s a delicacy in the world! Mr. Ye, your daily standard of living is really too high.
“With the best star beast meat served and the best spirit wine tasted, isn’t your cultivation still increasing every day?”
Ye Xiao still smiled indifferently.
“Oh right, speaking of which, why are you free to pass by my place this time? From the looks of it, you should have just gone to kill three Xiantian seventh-grade star beasts. If I’m not wrong, there shouldn’t be any Xiantian seventh grade star beasts nearby.”
Ye Xiao was already a King realm martial arts expert. If there were any Xiantian seventh-grade divine sect star beasts nearby, they definitely would not be able to escape his scanning, nor would they be able to escape his demonic claws. They would definitely be captured by him and sent to the star Beast Farm.
Beitang Ce let out a faint sigh.
“You guessed correctly. I came from the north.
“Originally, I should have returned directly to Zhong city. However, my heart was filled with frustration. For a moment, I couldn’t find anyone to talk to. Thus, I took a detour to Jianghai city and came to have a chat with Mr. Ye.”
Ye Xiao ate some vegetables and chatted as he ate.
“What’s going on? What’s troubling you so much?”
“I wonder if Mr. Ye has heard about the destruction of the dragon vein in the west recently?”
Ye Xiao nodded.
“I’ve heard a little.”
“What do you think, Mr. Ye?”
Ye Xiao shook his head again.
“I can’t tell either, but it’s ultimately not a good thing.”
Beitang Ce smiled helplessly.
“Not only is it not a good thing, but it’s also simply a terrible thing. What Mr. Ye knows should only be that a small province has been destroyed.
“But in reality, other than the provinces, there are several other provinces. Although they haven’t been destroyed, the dragon veins have been snatched away.”
Ye Xiao’s eyes moved slightly.
“So many dragon veins have been snatched away?”
Beitang Ce nodded.
“If my estimations are correct, there should be more dragon veins being snatched away. This is clearly a scheme by the star beasts. Their goal is to destroy the western human race.
“As long as the dragon veins in the west are gone, they are not far from being finished.
“Because only the dragon veins can absorb a large amount of spiritual energy, allowing a region to have a reasonable supply of spiritual energy.
“Once the dragon veins are destroyed, the martial arts of a region will gradually decline.”
“But I heard that the dragon veins of the Nine Provinces were also destroyed by a king. Why can the Nine Provinces continue to prosper?”
“This is different. The dragon vein of the Nine Provinces was actually destroyed. These dragon veins were robbed of their dragon energy, but they were not completely destroyed. They could still continue to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
“It was just that they would not have the self-consciousness of the dragon vein itself.
“However, even so, they would not continue to grow without the dragon energy. This meant that the supply of their spiritual energy would continue to stay in the same place.
“However, the number of warriors in the Nine Provinces would continue to increase.
“This is also why we are building so many spirit-gathering arrays now. Because the power of the dragon vein can no longer satisfy the needs of the martial artists.”
Beitang Ce drank a mouthful of wine.
“I don’t like the west. It’s just that once they die, the Nine Provinces will also be in trouble. And now, the beast calamity is imminent. On the ground of the Nine Provinces, there isn’t a strong enough martial arts expert who can turn the tide of the battle.
“In this way, once the west dies, the Nine Provinces will be next. If the human race on the ground is gone, the space battlefield will definitely not be able to hold on.
“In the end, the entire human race will be annihilated.
“Unfortunately, Mr. Ye is a genius. Unfortunately, he was born too late. If he had been born a few years earlier, his current cultivation should have already reached the King realm.
“If Mr. Ye is already at the King realm, I will think of all ways to let Mr. Ye break through the last barrier and reach the legendary Emperor realm!
“With Mister Ye around, the Nine Provinces can be saved. The situation in the space battlefield will also be greatly alleviated.”
Ye Xiao was slightly surprised.
He did not expect that Beitang Ce would dare to say such a thing.
Since he said so, it meant that he had a way to further increase his strength.
Although he did not know what it was.
Ye Xiao did not want to give up either.
The beast calamity was imminent. With his current cultivation speed, he really had no way to ensure that he would advance to the Emperor realm when the beast calamity arrived.
That was because advancing to the Emperor realm required more than just cultivation. Other than cultivation, he also needed dragon energy to temper his body.
Only by tempering the blood of mortals into divine blood would he be able to advance successfully.
Previously, he wanted to allow himself to advance to the Emperor realm within a year. That was on the basis that he had sufficient dragon energy.
Without dragon energy, he could forget about anything.
Even if he thought about it, it would be in vain.
Now that Beitang Ce said that he had a way, perhaps he should seize this opportunity.
“What method are you talking about?”
Beitang Ce waved his hand.
“It’s useless to talk about this now. Mr. Ye’s cultivation isn’t high enough. Even if I know the method, others might not agree…”
However, just as he finished speaking, an extremely imposing aura suddenly erupted from Ye Xiao’s body.
Beitang Ce’s body suddenly trembled. His eyes widened as he looked at Ye Xiao who was sitting opposite him in disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.
“Mr. Ye… You… You… You… When did you advance to the King realm?”
Ye Xiao smiled indifferently.
“Before I came back, I went to the Heavenly Devil Cliff and advanced by luck.”
Beitang Ce’s head seemed to explode with a bang.
Ye Xiao had just advanced past the lesser King realm!
He had only advanced to the lesser King realm a few days ago!
It had only been a few days?
Adding it all up, it had not even been a month, right?
He had advanced?
He had advanced just like that?
A 21-year-old King realm martial artist!
21 years old!
Since ancient times, how many people had been able to achieve that?
Even those existences that had been famous throughout the ages were not as brave as Ye Xiao, right?
That had completely shattered Beitang Ce’s worldview.
However, it had also allowed him to see hope, the hope of the entire Nine Provinces, and even of the entire human race!
One had to know that before that, he had already been deeply worried about the future of the human race. There was no hope at all.
At that point, he felt as if he had come from hell to heaven.
In an instant, he completed the transition from despair to full of hope!
Two lines of clear tears slid down from the corner of Beitang Ce’s eyes.
It was exciting!
At that moment, he could no longer control his emotions.
“The bearing of an emperor! It’s really the bearing of an emperor! I didn’t expect that I would actually be able to meet such an existence in my lifetime!
“Mr. Ye, you shall be reborn as the human emperor!”
Beitang Ce did not know if he was a little drunk or too excited. He shouted loudly and worshipped Ye Xiao as an idol.
No, to be more precise, at that moment, Ye Xiao was no longer just an idol in Beitang Ce’s heart. He was practically a god-like existence!
‘Beautiful. As expected of her master. Only her master could reach this step.
‘I’ve decided that I must give birth to a few kittens for my master to express my supreme respect and reverence for him!
‘Master is the greatest!’
Beitang Ce lost his composure for a short moment before wiping his tears.
“Mr. Ye, I’m sorry. I was too excited and made a fool of myself.”
“It’s alright.”
Ye Xiao shook his head. Perhaps it was because that was his own cultivation, so he was not as touched as Beitang Ce.
However, he still had a rough idea in his heart. His talent had already reached an extremely heaven-defying level in the surface world.
Therefore, he could understand Beitang Ce’s feelings at that moment.
There was nothing he could do. The Golden Book divine soul was too powerful and too monstrous!
At the same time, he felt fortunate that the Golden Book divine soul was his. If it was someone else’s, he would feel terrible.
“Oh right, you said earlier that if I’m already in the King realm, you have a way to help me advance in a short period of time! Is that true?”
