Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

232: Your Majesty, let’s talk for a whileSun Xingzhe, who was about to speak, froze on the spot, staring blankly at the retreating figure of the Imperial Tutor descending onto Black Wind Ridge. The Imperial Tutor’s voice still echoed in his ears.

What is going on? Asking for forgiveness? Asking forgiveness for what? Asking forgiveness from whom?

He turned his head to look, and the Million Heavenly Soldiers displayed their awe-inspiring Divine Might.

Wait, they brought a Million Heavenly Soldiers; doesn’t that mean they intend to start a war?

He turned back, his eyes darting around, and silently put away the heavenly immortal staff in his hand.

Below, Zhu Bajie was also somewhat surprised. When did Master become so kind and gentle?

Back then, Master was the sharpest Spirit-Slaying Sword of the Emperor Ancestor Dynasty!

Were there not more than ten or eight Immortal Sects destroyed by Master’s sword?

He looked toward the figure in front of Black Wind Cave, slightly lowered his head, and decided it must be because of Elder Qin.

Immortal Lord Level combat strength demanded attention, even from the Emperor Ancestor Dynasty, forcing them to make concessions.

In front of Black Wind Cave, white light descended, and the figure of the Imperial Tutor appeared, a smile on his face.

He cupped his hands toward Qin Jiang, ”Greetings, Immortal Lord Qin.”

The moment he lowered his eyes while cupping his hands, his heart involuntarily trembled.

The powerful Aura that hadn’t completely dissipated on Black Wind Ridge was still above his own —it was definitely power at the Immortal Lord level!

As expected of someone hailed as the Young Immortal King, his reputation was truly deserved!

Is he showing off some power just to intimidate me?

”Senior is too polite. May I ask what business brings you to my Black Wind Ridge?” Qin Jiang asked with a smile.

The Imperial Tutor smiled upon hearing this, ”Given the Immortal Lord’s intelligence, how could you not guess why this old man has come?

On this trip, Your Majesty has brought gifts: ten Breaking Dao Pills, five Sacred Path Pills, and tens of thousands of various Heaven And Earth Treasures, to congratulate the Immortal Lord on breaking through the Realm.

Besides that, Your Majesty also wishes to speak with you.”

No matter what, an existence at the Immortal Lord level needed to be befriended whenever possible.

The fact that the other party blocked Black Wind Ridge this time was actually a good thing, as it provided the Emperor Ancestor Dynasty with an opportunity to establish contact.

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow upon hearing the gifts. He had heard of both types of Medicinal Pills.

The Breaking Dao Pill could allow a True God level being to advance one minor Realm without any side effects.

If consumed during an Immortal Tribulation, it could transform into a Dao Light, sufficient to repair any damage caused by the Immortal Tribulation, essentially counting as an extra life.

The effect of the Sacred Path Pill was equally impressive; it could reshape the Foundation, allowing the consumer to forge a Saint Foundation.

Even a Trash with no Aptitude could become a Saint level existence suppressing numerous Prodigies after consuming a Sacred Path Pill.

It could be said that this was the hope for a declining Immortal Sect to rise again.

However, this type of Medicinal Pill was extremely troublesome to refine, and the Heaven And Earth Treasure required were very rare.

Furthermore, one of the auxiliary materials, called Heavenly Dao Heart, could only be condensed in small amounts by experts at the peak of the Immortal Lord Realm.

Therefore, the Sacred Path Pill was extremely rare; even in the Emperor Ancestor Dynasty, there were probably no more than twenty of them.

”I agree,” Qin Jiang said. He also wanted to see what kind of person this Emperor Ancestor Sovereign truly was.

The Imperial Tutor felt relieved upon hearing this. Thankfully, this person was not a battle maniac, and they wouldn’t have to fight.

Otherwise, fighting an Immortal Lord level existence —even if he could gather the power of the Million Heavenly Soldiers —would ultimately be incomparable to facing an Immortal Lord.

Unless several Saint Lord Level experts attacked together and formed a battle formation, only then could a Saint Lord suppress an Immortal Lord.

But that was unrealistic. The Emperor Ancestor Dynasty only had so many Saint Lord Level experts, and each held an important position and could not be moved lightly.

Being able to resolve the matter just by sending out some Heaven And Earth Treasure, as they were doing now, was already excellent.

After all, although these treasures were precious, they were nothing significant to the Emperor Ancestor Dynasty.

Only those three Sacred Path Pills were relatively valuable, but for an Immortal Dynasty like the Emperor Ancestor Dynasty, which had stood on the continent for millions of years, Saint level Prodigies were nothing special.

On the current Imperial Court, which Saint Lord Level, or even Half-step Saint Lord Level, existence wasn’t a Saint level Prodigy in their youth?

Only individuals at the Dao Child level were worthy of the Dynasty’s full cultivation effort, and the Dao Child level could not be achieved by relying on Medicinal Pills.

He took something out of his robes: a pale golden translucent great seal.

The inscriptions on the great seal glowed, revealing a golden vortex from which majestic and dignified power surged forth.

The sky above Black Wind Ridge was also affected by this power, gathering into a vortex of cloud Qi that enveloped the entire Black Wind Ridge and continued to spread outward.

This was the power of the Immortal Lord Level; even if it was just a projection, if the power wasn’t controlled, it would be enough to affect the celestial phenomena within ten thousand miles.

Bang!

The great seal shattered, turning into specks of light that gradually gathered into a humanoid light phantom.

The moment the humanoid light phantom appeared, the cloud Qi vortex above Black Wind Ridge instantly dissipated, and the Million Heavenly Soldiers knelt on one knee, shouting, ”Your Majesty!”

The sound rumbled, several times more powerful than the might of a typical Immortal Ascension Tribulation.

The golden light faded, and the projection of the Emperor Ancestor Sovereign revealed his form, dressed in a Black Water Profound Robe.

He looked at Qin Jiang, ”Fellow Daoist, I can allow you to view the Immortal King Scripture. Please allow Tang Sanzang and his three disciples to pass.”

Qin Jiang looked at him, a thoughtful expression on his face.

While he pondered, all surrounding sounds fell silent; even the chirping of insects ceased.

Sweat beaded lightly on the Imperial Tutor’s forehead. If Qin Jiang refused, they would still have to fight a round.

Compared to him, Sun Xingzhe and the True Immortals in the sky were far more nervous.

If a fight broke out, they didn’t know what fate awaited Immortal Lord Qin.

But they knew that they, ordinary True Immortals, were nothing more than consumables in a confrontation of this level.

They were slightly better off than the Heavenly Soldiers, but not by much.

Below, Zhu Bajie pulled Sha Wujing and quietly retreated, but as soon as he took a step, he was locked onto by an invisible Qi mechanism, as if moving even slightly more would result in him being torn to shreds.

Swallowing hard, he secretly looked toward Black Wind Cave. Qin Jiang and the Emperor Ancestor Sovereign stood opposite each other, and a faint film existed between them, separating their golden and platinum Auras.

Inside Black Wind Cave, Tang Sanzang was still diligently flipping the roasted fish. He casually wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a bit depressed.

He didn’t know where this broken cave got so many fish. How long —until the Year of the Monkey and Horse —would it take to finish roasting them all?

His power was still sealed by Qin Jiang; he couldn’t even breathe out Heavenly Fire to increase the heat.

Looking at Qin Jiang standing outside the cave, he couldn’t help but pout. He thought, why must a great Elder of an Immortal Sect like you come and make things difficult for me?

Standing at the cave entrance like a block of wood, are you going to eat this roasted fish or not? If you don’t, I’ll eat it all!

Outside the cave, Qin Jiang looked at the Emperor Ancestor Sovereign’s projection and sighed inwardly. It was a pity it wasn’t the true body.

Otherwise, he truly wanted to gauge exactly how powerful this existence, who had reached the peak of the Immortal Lord Realm, really was.

But it was fine. Since the other party promised a viewing of the Immortal King Scripture, it wouldn’t be too late to visit the Emperor Ancestor Dynasty after going to Lingxuan Holy Land.

He slightly extended his hand toward the cave, ”Imperial Venerable, let us play a game of Go.”
