“Madness!”

The cultivators looked up at Ji Wudao. What did it mean when he said he did not want to defeat Donghuang Diyuan?

It was as if he was saying that he would defeat Donghuang Diyuan in battle as long as he was willing.

Did the heir of the Heavenly Emperor of the Heaven Realm possess such heaven-defying abilities?

Donghuang Diyuan’s expression did not change; she would not be swayed by his words. The Seal of Thousand Arms continued its ferocious onslaught on the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor until tens of millions of arms descended simultaneously. Immediately, a crack appeared on the “emperor” character on the seal, as well as on the giant scroll of the word “emperor.”

Suddenly, the Void shook violently, and with a loud bang, both the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor and Seal of Thousand Arms broke into pieces.

The two looked at each other. Both these heirs of emperor figures had remarkable dispositions. Donghuang Diyuan had the Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix on both sides, guarding her, while Ji Wudao was like the reincarnation of the Heavenly Emperor.

Just then, a saintly Light of Buddha surrounded Donghuang Diyuan. The light was soft and gentle and held no murderous intent. It headed toward Ji Wudao, who showed surprise upon receiving it. A faint mark that glowed with divine line seemed to appear between his eyebrows.

“The Buddhist Six Superpowers,” Ji Wudao remarked to himself. He then looked at Donghuang Diyuan and said, “Whatever Princess Diyuan desires to see, please go ahead.”

Within the Light of the Buddha, countless scenes appeared in front of Donghuang Diyuan. The scenes were showing the life story of Ji Wudao.

She stared ahead of her, and countless images appeared within her eyes. She learned about Ji Wudao’s cultivation journey, where he had started as an ordinary person without any extraordinary talent in the Heaven Realm and made his way up from the bottom. He had been through numerous life-threatening crises and close fights. The images were brutal and violent as if he had walked out from a battlefield with skeletons all around his feet.

He underwent exceptionally harsh trials during selections in the Heaven Realm. He killed all his opponents and became the heir of the Heaven Realm. At that time, he had already developed unparalleled talent then and was a new being.

Through scene after scene, Donghuang Diyuan watched Ji Wudao train in the Divine Prefecture, in the forbidden places in the Demon Realm, in the Buddhist realm anonymously, and even in the Empty Divine Realm, the Human Realm, Dark World, and Original Realm. It was as if he had left his footprints on every single place on earth.

“Has Princess Diyuan found it yet?” Ji Wudao asked while looking at Donghuang Diyuan. His pupils were bright, and divine light flowed around his body. He was one with heaven and earth and seemed to be a perfect and flawless person without any weak points.

Yet, in the experiences he had gone through, Ji Wudao most certainly could not be said to be a perfect person; one might even say he was cruel and bloodthirsty. He went through many life-and-death situations and made it out safely each time. He was exceptionally clever and knew when to endure things to survive. Although he had been to all the fantastic realms, no one from those realms had ever heard of his name, and very few remembered him.

Furthermore, he seemed to have guessed what Donghuang Diyuan wanted to find from him.

Donghuang Diyuan stared fixedly at Ji Wudao. The things she had seen seemed to be only what Ji Wudao allowed her to see. It was missing the most important item that she was looking for.

How did Ji Wudao achieve his metamorphosis and become who he was today?

Looking at the experiences, he had gone through, although they were fraught with danger, it was not enough to cause a metamorphosis. There was still something crucial missing, for example, the most acceptable inheritance or something else!

Donghuang Diyuan was not able to find these things or any weak points; it was as if he was impeccable.

Boom! Donghuang Diyuan moved her will, and suddenly, the Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix that were above the sky started to move as if they had been resurrected as the actual Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix. An otherworldly divine power descended and enveloped the entire space.

Right then, all who were present felt an overwhelming sense of pressure coming upon and looked up to see the two divine beasts in the upper skies circling over the heads of Donghuang Diyuan and Ji Wudao. At the same time, a great rush of power was released from Donghuang Diyuan.

Donghuang Diyuan soared up to stand in between the Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix. At that moment, she looked like a goddess, high and mighty.

“She is drawing on the powers of the Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix.” The cultivators’ hearts raced again. Donghuang Diyuan had always been blessed by the Ancestral Phoenix and was even regarded as a representation of the Divine Phoenix. After inheriting the Naga Relics, she was also blessed by the Ancestral Dragon and inherited the dragon’s spirit.

With the powers of the Dragon and the Phoenix regenerating in her body, Donghuang Diyuan had surpassed her original level.

If Ji Wudao did not have some other tricks up his sleeve, he would indeed be defeated.

The current Donghuang Diyuan was at the demigod level.

“Why must you be so persistent, Your Highness?” Ji Wudao asked Donghuang Diyuan. “I’m agreeable if you insist on having the Heaven Relics. Come and cultivate with me in the Heavenly Imperial Palace, and in the future, you and I will be the rulers of the Heaven Court.” His words shocked the cultivators in the lower skies.

How could Ji Wudao make this kind of request?

Donghuang Diyuan scanned the lower skies but did not say a thing. The Ancestral Dragon roared, and all at once, the sky trembled. The Dragon’s roar caused shocks to pass through many of the cultivators in the lower skies, and they felt as if they were going to disintegrate. Quite a few cultivators groaned and spat out blood. There was some blood in the corners of their mouths. Their faces were ghastly pale.

This roar was not even directed at them but Ji Wudao.

Even so, they could not handle the blow.

As for Ji Wudao, a dazzling divine splendor lit up his body, and he floated up to the upper skies on the sky stairwell. A supremely powerful force descended upon the Old Heaven Court, and divine light shrouded Ji Wudao’s body. A saintly light appeared above the sky.

Ji Wudao was bathed in the divine light. It was as if the Ruler of the Old Heaven Court had descended upon earth himself.

“The Old Heaven Court!”

Numerous people raised their heads to look at the sky, where above the sky stairwell, a court had appeared. It was possibly the Old Heaven Court Relics.

Countless years ago, the leader of Deva, which was the first of the Eight Legions, had ruled over the Old Heaven Court. Was he given the title of Heavenly Emperor as well?

The ruler of the Old Heaven Court could be the leader of the Eight Legions and the first of the Heavenly Path.

Had Ji Wudao inherited the Will of the Old Heaven Court?

The Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix glided down, and in a flash, shadowy figures of the Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix dashed toward Ji Wudao. Unimaginable power was contained in the Ancestral Dragon while the Ancestral Phoenix was bathed in a divine flame that set fire to the Void and burned everything to ashes as it charged at Ji Wudao.

At the sight of such a terrifying strike, even the demigods could not stop their hearts racing.

“The power of this strike is on my level already,” remarked Supreme Swordlord as he arched his head to see the battle taking place above the skies. The attack of Donghuang Diyuan, boosted by the powers drawn from the Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix, had already reached the demigod level.

She was already just outside the perimeter, with just one more step needed to become a demigod. With the addition of the powers of the Ancestral Dragon and Phoenix, one could only imagine how terrifying that strike was.

Would Ji Wudao be able to withstand it?

Ji Wudao was bathed in the divine light from the Old Heaven Court, and an impressive power permeated from within his body. At his back, the figure of the Heavenly Emperor seemed to have solidified. Standing in front of the Heavenly Emperor, he raised his arms, and suddenly, a divine light sprinkled down from above the skies. A divine sword appeared in Ji Wudao’s hands, and the figure behind him also held a divine sword with both hands.

With the appearance of the divine sword, many of the cultivators’ swords started to clatter loudly, desiring to bow their heads.

The sword of Supreme Swordlord also showed the same reaction, and he was stunned as he realized his swordsmanship was inferior.

“The Sword of the Heavenly Emperor!”

Supreme Swordlord looked up at the sky. The divine sword was more than just a sword—it contained the Will of Heaven and was the Sword of the Heavenly Emperor. Its high status meant that everything in the world had to listen to its commands.

Sure enough, on the divine sword was written the word “emperor.” It glistened with divine light and exuded such a mighty power that made all beings grovel.

Donghuang Diyuan had inherited the Will of the Ancestral Dragon, but Ji Wudao had inherited the Will of the Old Heaven Court. People could not help but be amazed. Before this, no one had heard of the heir of the Heaven Realm, Ji Wudao before. Who knew that he would be so impressive and remarkable?

“This place is under the Old Heaven Court, and Ji Wudao directly drawing power from the Old Heaven Court puts him at an advantage. I think Donghuang Diyuan is going to lose,” Supreme Swordlord said with his eyes on the battle. The divine sword in Ji Wudao’s hand clashed with the Ancestral Dragon and Divine Phoenix, causing the sky to be on the verge of collapse. As divine light shone down, many of the cultivators in the lower skies simultaneously released a shield of defense.

The humongous Ancestral Dragon and Divine Phoenix were still clashing with the Heavenly Emperor Sword, with divine light bursting out at every contact. However, they both subsequently got split open. They were no match for the power of the Heavenly Emperor Sword.

Right then, an intimidating aura burst out from behind Donghuang Diyuan. A top warrior from the Divine Prefecture had stepped out, and he was bursting with incredible might and power.

At the same time, White Almighty on the sky stairwell grunted and also stepped out. He landed on the battlefield beside Ji Wudao. They both were keen to protect their young masters.

Donghuang Diyuan was the only daughter of Donghuang the Great. Her background alone ensured that she would be of a high status. With her talents, her high status in Donghuang Imperial Palace went without saying.

Ji Wudao, on the other hand, earned the support of those in the Heavenly Imperial Palace through his efforts. All the strongmen in the Heaven Realm willingly listened to and assisted him, including the Great Skylords Black and White Almighty. It was obvious that Wu Jidao was alluring.

The terrifying sounds of the clashes caused the sky to crumble and the ground to shatter, causing the cultivators’ hearts to beat furiously. They had hardly made sense of what was happening when strongmen started stepping out from different quarters in the direction of the sky stairwell. Many of their pupils were constricted as they stared at the site of the battle. It turned out that those who stepped out were all emperor-level cultivators.

These emperor-level cultivators had been patiently watching the battle but were now not able to control themselves any longer.. They marched toward the sky stairwell. Evidently, they, too, strongly desired the Old Heaven Court Relics!
