Chapter 1078: Chapter 1074: First Entry

He had once thought about vying for that position, but never thought he could truly become the Emperor.

He felt that Li Hongzhao had just ascended the throne, so it would take at least decades before the imperial throne would be passed on.

He never expected Li Hongzhao to ascend so soon.

When he heard that the throne was to be inherited by him, he felt both ecstatic and incredulous.

Now he finally sobered up, but Li Hongzhao was about to ascend immediately.

The throne came to him too hastily, and too unexpectedly.

He had never imagined it, let alone others, none had time to react, and the transfer of the throne was already accomplished.

Just like when Li Hongzhao suddenly became Emperor by accepting the imperial edict halfway through.

He was no different.

But compared to Li Hongzhao, he was even less prepared, with a lesser aptitude than Li Hongzhao, and less experience than Li Hongzhao.

His character was far inferior as well.

At this moment, he felt somewhat lost and at a loss, not knowing how to handle the current situation.

A middle-aged man beside him said softly, ”First let the Emperor’s Sword recognize its master.”

Li Biyang suddenly realized, quickly nodding, ”Right, right, first let the Emperor’s Sword recognize its master.”

He made a strange gesture with his hands, then initiated the mental method.

This was the Sword Summoning Technique, to summon the Emperor’s Sword, to have the Emperor’s Sword recognize its master.

The others all watched him attentively.

Although they were limited by their original impressions, thinking Li Biyang’s temperament was too gentle and unsuitable for a grand role.

But after all, he was personally selected by Li Hongzhao as the successor.

Now let’s see if he can be recognized by the Emperor’s Sword.

If the Emperor’s Sword does not recognize him, then he cannot become the Emperor, and someone else would have to be chosen.

At that time, among them, except for those too old, everyone would have a chance.

Under their scorching gaze, a stream of light suddenly appeared above his head.

After stopping, it turned into a simple antique longsword.

The patterns on the sword began to come to life, slowly flowing.

A golden light gradually expanded, wrapping Li Biyang.

They sighed and shook their heads.

This was the Emperor’s Sword recognizing its master, meaning the throne was secured.

Of course, whether he could be a good Emperor was another matter.

They believed in Li Hongzhao’s unique insight.

If she chose Li Biyang, it meant that Li Biyang had potential.

A quarter of an hour later, the golden light on Li Biyang suddenly contracted, drilling into his body.

He opened his eyes, golden light flickering, slowly contracting back into his pupils.

His pupils became increasingly bright and piercing, firm and steady.

They all felt that Li Biyang had undergone some indescribable change, no longer the original Li Biyang.

Li Biyang slowly said, ”Uncles and brothers, from today, I am the Da Meng Emperor. Please lend me your support, so our Li family’s kingdom remains stable and the nation prospers endlessly.”

”Congratulations, Your Majesty,” said the middle-aged man who had spoken earlier, clasping his hands in salute.

Li Biyang smiled, ”Thank you, Uncle Five.”

His gaze turned to the other members of the Imperial Family, gradually becoming bright and compelling.

At this moment, the Emperor’s Sword was already nowhere in sight, but they knew it must be hovering above.

With the Emperor’s Sword recognizing its master, the overall situation was settled, without further changes.

Whether they were willing to accept it or not, Li Biyang had become the new Da Meng Emperor.

——

On a mountain peak outside Tianjing City, Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

This Li Biyang, despite his soft character, was recognized by the Emperor’s Sword, making him the true Emperor.

From now on, even if he acted improperly, no one could shake his throne.

Unless the Emperor’s Sword abandoned him.

Chu Zhiyuan knew the root of this matter still lay with himself.

Back when he had taken Li Biyang to eliminate the Evil Sect, allowing Li Biyang to gain enough merit.

This was the fundamental reason the Emperor’s Sword recognized him as the master.

Without such merit, with his current cultivation, it would have been impossible for him to gain the recognition of the Emperor’s Sword.

Li Hongzhao clearly had long made up her mind to ascend early.

So she made Li Biyang assist him, and in turn let Li Biyang share in the glory and gain merit.

Thinking this, he raised his head to look at the sky again, trying to penetrate the obstacle to see the Heavenly Sword Sect.

He wanted to see how Li Hongzhao was doing, whether she had already settled down.

Suppressing his eagerness, he closed his eyes and began to focus on the heavenly blue within his Lao Gong Acupoint.

The raging wind had ceased, and the blue sea and sky inside were restored to tranquility and harmony.

The small island remained stable, as if the previous onslaught was just an illusion.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded in satisfaction.

This Human Element Skill was more robust than imagined, so the Heavenly Yuan Technique must be mastered.

Thinking of this, the halo in the void of his mind flashed, transforming into a clear light spreading in his mind.

This clear light disappeared into his mind, like fine rain seeping into the earth.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

Not knowing how much merit and faith power would be needed to master the Heavenly Yuan Technique.

The previously gathered merit and faith power were already considerable, but showed almost no progress for the Heavenly Yuan Technique.

Continuing like this, it seemed nearly impossible to open the ancestral acupoint, never mastering the Heavenly Yuan Technique.

The clones of Chu Liezhao and Leng Tieya gathered for him not much merit and faith power.

From now on, to gain more faith power, they needed to stand out.

They could no longer develop silently like this; they needed to gain fame throughout the Three Realms to gain faith power or merit.

Besides these two clones, he also needed to find ways to gain faith power and merit himself.

In Little Outer Heaven, it was almost reaching its limit. After the Evil Sect was wiped out, the faith power and merit of the world’s people were at their peak.

From then on, it would only trickle slowly, with little help to the Heavenly Yuan Technique.

New sources were needed, and Biyuan Heaven would be an excellent candidate.

Now it was up to Li Hongzhao.

...

Li Hongzhao stood solemnly before a small courtyard, examining the simple courtyard before her.

From the supreme Emperor, after ascending, she became an ordinary Inner Sect Disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

In a short time, the difference was too great, making her somewhat unable to react.

The simple courtyard before her, compared to the vast and magnificent Imperial Palace of Da Meng, was as different as clouds and mud.

Though the air around was fresh and filled with spiritual energy, breathing in felt like her lungs expanded, her body felt light and ready to fly.

But it still made her feel quite uncomfortable.

More importantly, the Heavenly Sword Sect was so indifferent to Inner Sect Disciples.

She was not an ordinary disciple but an Emperor who ascended with the Emperor’s Sword; shouldn’t she be given more importance? Why such perfunctory treatment?

Only a single white crane led her into the main hall of the Heavenly Sword Sect, where she met the Sect Leader, and then was given a token, a set of clothes, and a courtyard.

Anything else, she just needed to arrive at the halls on time.

To practice skills, she had to go to the Martial Arts Hall and find the appropriate Instructor Elders.

For spirit pills, she had to go to the Treasure Hall and exchange them for merits.

As for obtaining merit, it was to descend from the mountain to slay evil demons, and the token would naturally record merit.

But with insufficient cultivation, it was wise not to descend the mountain.

Biyuan Heaven was thriving with evil demons, each strange and unpredictable, difficult to guard against, and too many disciples recklessly went down the mountain and perished.

The current location of the Heavenly Sword Sect was in Qinglian Sea, a sacred place for gathering evil demons.

The Heavenly Sword Peak where the Heavenly Sword Sect was located could move.

Moving once every ten years, it often moved to the strongest place of the evil demons to eliminate them.

This was also the fundamental reason for the high reputation of the Heavenly Sword Sect in Biyuan Heaven.

This time, the Heavenly Sword Sect moved to Qinglian Sea.

And Qinglian Sea was an expanse of islands, over a hundred small islands, all filled with evil demons.

Each small island was a sacred place for demon cultivation, with countless experts emerging one after another.

The Heavenly Sword Sect has been here for six years, yet has not been able to eradicate Qinglian Sea.

The situation was quite severe, and the entire Heavenly Sword Sect had a solemn atmosphere.

Li Hongzhao thought of this, shook her head, and was about to push the door open.

She suddenly heard a charming laugh not far away.

Turning her head, she saw a young girl standing outside the adjacent courtyard, smiling at her.

The two small courtyards were about a hundred meters apart.
