Imperial God Emperor

Lotus Peak was situated within the North of Clear River Domain.

One thousand miles east of the Fragrance Plains, the terrain gradually began to rise and fall. The hilly terrain spread eastwards. After another thousand miles, one could see towering mountains, seeing the mountain range forming into peaks of all different sizes and shapes.

This piece of mountain range had beautiful and elegant scenery, with plentiful spiritual qi. On the ground, the river was surrounding it like a jade belt. There was lines of Spirit qi converging on it from the heavens and the earth, with many treasures of the world in this mountain range. There were countless Spirit birds, and was home to many Spirit beasts. This was one of the famous lands of fortune of Clear River Domain.

Lotus Peak was where the Greater One Sect was located. It was at the highest peak of this mountain range. There was a poem praising it: A peak as if planted by the Heavens, towering above the clouds, the eight shadows creating fortune, the heroes of all the world entering into the sect!

This mountain peak was famed for being vast and beautiful. One could rarely find a mountain peak that split apart like a lotus blossoming tens of thousands of meters above the ground. It split into eight, turning into eight different peaks of different shapes and height. From far away, clouds encircled it, letting off an extremely miraculous feeling.

The Lotus Peak was originally a miracle of nature.

According to the rumours, all the spirit veins within hundreds of thousands of miles from there converged here. The spirit qi shot to the clouds, causing the terrain of the earth to suddenly rise. After the passing of millions of years, only then did the Lotus Peak form. Because the Spirit qi and baleful qi clashed and opposed each other, there was the miracle of the Lotus Peak splitting into eight.

After the cultivation and care of the Greater One Sect for thousands of years, the Lotus Peak seemed even more vast, it’s aura even more imposing.

The first moment that Ye Qingyu saw that strange peak covered by a sea of clouds, he could not help but be completely fiercely shaken.

Everywhere he looked, there were mountain peak after mountain peak amidst the sea of clouds. They were connected by steel cables, with bridges spanning between them. There were many pavilions, waterfalls at the side, mountain corridors, jade green steps, ancient pine trees, and cranes striving for splendour. It was not a simple scene of beauty at all.

The Youyan Pass and Snow Capital of Heaven Wasteland Domain, were also not simple ordinary huge cities. It could be called great achievements of human architecture. Many people could not help but be astounded after looking at them.

But such large cities would after all let out an imposing and authorative aura.

The Greater One Sect was an entirely different style. It was filled with imagination and a sense of beauty, like an immortal scene from the legends.

Ye Qingyu and the others rode on the back of a massive white bird, entering into the sect.

Previously, when they were between life and death, the huge deity-like hand had appeared. It tore through space, and brought them from the training area of heaven’s pass. When they came to appear above the Fragrance Plains, the huge deity-like hand had also disappeared.

The Fragrance Plains was originally an area that the Greater One Sect controlled, so the problem of safety was entirely resolved.

Experts of the Greater One Sect had long been waiting for them there. They received Han Qi, Lin Yi, Ye Qingyu and the others. Riding a huge white bird, they headed towards the sect.

The wingspan of this white bird exceeded a hundred meters. It’s scale was massive, but it was incomparably nimble, and it’s speed like lightning. The distance of thousands of miles was covered by it in less than half an incense stick of time.

”No wonder those Greater One Sect disciples act so badly that they are prouder than heavenly birds. They have the requirements to be proud. Just from the layout of this sect, this Greater One Sect could absolutely be called a great ancient sect.

Ye Qingyu sighed in admiration hiddenly in his heart.

Yu Xiaoxing’s eyes brightened with light. She also could not help but sigh in admiration, ”This really is far too beautiful. This definitely is the residence of immortals. Oh, look, that floating peak is really far too astounding, I really want to live here for the rest of my life.”

Young girls were creatures that were easily moved.

Yu Xiaoxing could be said to have seen and experienced many things. But from an early age, what she saw was the brilliant white snow cover of Youyan Pass and its vast and cruel environment that was like steel. The beautiful, fantastic scenery before her eyes could not help but make her drunk with admiration.

”That floating peak is known as Heavenly Pavilion. It namely is my pavilion and residence. If Miss Xing’er likes to, then you naturally can stay there forever,” Xiao Yunlong said with a smile.

On the way, he had already found several opportunities to speak with Xing’er.

But they were all artfully dodged by Xing’er.

Evidently, this talent of the Greater One Sect was very interested in the Xing’er who had an Imperial aura around her body.

”In front of us is the main peak. The Elders of the Elder’s Residence has already been notified. They should be coming to meet you right now. When we ascend the main peak, you must account for what you have experienced and seen in detail.“

The white haired Han Qi said with a smile.

Lin Yi and the others rushed to reply.

In a flash

The huge white bird descended on the main Lotus Peak.

This main peak was extremely vast. The huge white bird landed on a gigantic, seemingly endless plain and everyone descended. There were people that quickly brought the white bird away. There were Greater One Sect disciples that long waited there, and brought Lin Yi and the others to the Heavenly Monarch Pavilion.

Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing were temporarily forced to wait at one of the guest residences at the boundaries of the courtyard.

”Please wait here briefly. After we see the elders of the sects, we’ll come find you,” before leaving, Lin Yi said very passionately and courteously.

The person that accompanied Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing was namely the white-haired Han Qi.

After two hours passed, they still could not see Lin Yi and the others returning.

Han Qi was not impatient. He ordered disciples to bring food and cold beverages, and received Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing very passionately. He told people to bring Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing to wash and clean up, swapping on clean clothes.

”Brother Ye is really a dragon among men.”

Han Qi sighed in admiration.

He complimented in his heart. A people really depended on his clothing and a horse his saddle. Previously, Ye Qingyu was like a wild brute that drunk blood and ate feathers. Who could have guessed that after he wore a clean set of clothing, he was heroic and handsome. His aura was not ordinary, and he instantly transformed to a rarely seen handsome youth.

It was only a pity that his strength was too low.

Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing could not help but be somewhat impatient while conversing with Han Qi.

The Greater One Sect were not amiable fellows. They could not truly be said to be completely safe by coming here.

Four hours later.

There were Greater One Sect disciples that came here to report that the Elder’s Residence invites the two noble guests from other domains to come visit.

Han Qi brought Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing to the Heavenly Monarch Pavilion.

Heavenly Monarch Pavilion was the main pavilion of the Lotus Peak. It’s aura was imposing, like a dragon or tiger coiling up.

It was normal, if there was any important matters within Greater One Sect or some event, the Greater One Zhenren as well as the elders of the Elder’s Residence, as well as the Peak Masters of the other seven peaks, to congregate in this area. They would gather within the Heavenly Monarch Pavilion to make a joint decision, and it was an important governing area of the Greater One Sect.

There were countless formation arrays around the great pavilion of all sorts of manifestation, and it’s tight security did not need to be mentioned.

Under the lead of Han Qi, Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing entered into the pavilion.

In the middle of the pavilion, there was a lotus pond with clear water running through it. It was so transparent that one could see the bottom, where fire red Spirit fishes swam there comfortably. Every ten steps, there was a lotus plant, the fragrance of the lotus assaulting the nose.

In the middle of the lotus pond, there was an avenue of stone steps.

As they followed this avenue, they came to the inside of the main pavilion. A scarlet carpet covered the pall of the Great Pavilion completely. In front of them were nine steps, and above it were eight main Lotus seats. But the main Lotus seat as well as the four Lotus seats by the sides were empty.

Only the two seats slightly to the right and the one at the far left were occupied. There sat three middle-aged men with an imposing aura.

There were tens of people below on the two sides of the stone steps.

There were some people that were standing. There was an old man with his hair as white as snow and there was a middle-aged man that seemed to look on disdainfully. All of them were of different appearances, but all of them were experts of the Greater One Sect. The yuan qi fluctuation around everybody far exceeded the peak of the Bitter Sea stage. Standing there, they were like starry fireballs with a frightening aura about them.

After the reminder of Han Qi, Ye Qingyu did not need to guess anymore. On the three main Lotus seats on the steps, namely sat three of the Peak Masters of the eight main Peaks. The people below with vast and frightening auras must be the elders of the Elder’s Residence.

Apart from these people, the other Greater One Sect disciples like Lin Yi that had been fortunately brought back could not be seen.

”I pay my respects to the three Shishu, I pay my respects to all the Elders.”

Han Qi gave a minor greeting.

Within the Greater One Sect, the Eight Main Peak Masters, were all known as Patriarchs. And the Peak Master of the the Greater One Peak were also known as the leaders of the entire Greater One Sect, with the highest power and authority.

”Are you two the humans of Heaven Wasteland Domain?”

The person sitting at the far left seat opened his mouth and asked. His voice was great, as if it resounded from the edges of Heaven. There was an endless authority contained within that completely sounded out throughout the entire Heavenly Monarch Pavilion, as if there was an echo. it caused those that heard it to have respect born in their hearts.

”Ye Qingyu, Yu Xiaoxing, of Heaven Wasteland Domain, pays their respects to the elders of the Greater One Sect.”

Ye Qingyu clasped his hands together, paying a perfunctory greeting.

”Impudence!” Within the crowd of elders, there was someone that loudly shouted, his voice like thunder, ”Commoners of a lower realm, you see the three Patriarchs but you don’t bow down to pay your respects. How dare you be so disrespectful?”

Ye Qingyu’s eyebrows moved up.

”No matter.” On the right side of the Lotus Platform, another Patriarch opened his mouth, ”These two are not the disciples of our Greater One Sect, so they do not need to follow the rules of the sect.” As he said this, he smiled towards Yu Xiaoxing and Ye Qingyu. ”I only knew today, that there was a domain like Heaven Wasteland Domain, within the endless domains of this Universe. It is a comparatively young domain, and also ruled by humans. This is the fortune of our race.”

”That’s right, us humans walk with difficulty. Who would have thought that in a newly born domain, there would be one where it was ruled over by the Human Race. ” The other Peak Master by the side nodded his head, but then frowned after that, ”But in a newly born domain, the laws are not complete, and yuan qi will also be at an ebb. Once news of its existence is known, it will very dangerous.”

Ye Qingyu and Yu Xiaoxing both did not say anything.

“Lin Yi has already recounted his previous experiences to all the elders here. But the time he remained within Heaven Wasteland Domain was too short. Young man, are you willing to describe the situation of Heaven Wasteland Domain in detail? ” The Magnificent Peak Master who opened his mouth first directly asked.

Ye Qingyu frowned.

He hesitated for a brief moment, before giving a perfunctory explanation, not giving a detailed explanation.

Yu Xiaoxing was also very cautious. On the way, through her understanding of the Greater One Sect disciples, she discovered that this sect was not something that they could truly trust and rely on. Before they were clear about the objectives of these people, she did not want to expose too many things regarding Heaven Wasteland Domain.

”Hmph, this is completely half-hearted,” within the crowd of elders, there was someone who snorted, evidently extremely dissatisfied.

”Fine, having caution is normal.” The Peak Master of Bright Moon Peak smiled, ”Previously, Lin Yi asked me to receive two youths from another domain under my wing. Previously, senior brother, you said we must look at the talent of these two youths, before we decide on whether to let them in the sect. Have you come to a decision at this time?”

“The talent of this girl is not bad, and her foundations are passable. However she is not that young anymore, and has passed by the golden period of cultivation. But she could perhaps enter into the sect. It’s only that this boy...”
