67: Chapter 67 Suppressing the Imperial Weapon

"Gosh! The imperial Formation has actually been activated. Can Divine Son Wushang and the others withstand it?" Jiang Zhao and Jiang Lie were terrified.

They raised their heads and struggled to look forward.

"Wushang... Nianyang, Ruoxi..." Jiang Daoran raised his head, looking forward at his grandson and descendants with a face full of worry.

However, try as he might to move, he was completely unable to do so, suppressed to the point where he couldn't control himself.

A mere wisp of the Great Emperor's might could suppress mountains and rivers, something even a Great Saint could not endure.

This was the gap between an Emperor Realm powerhouse and ordinary Cultivators.

"Imperial might... Revered Master, did you successfully activate the Formation?" As the imperial might permeated the air, Jiang Nianyang immediately asked.

"Should be..." The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror raised its head to look.

Before it could say that it should be...

In the high heavens, a round of sunlight bloomed, instantly pouring out terrifying solar light that submerged Jiang Nianyang's body.

Boom!

Jiang Nianyang was suppressed to the point of kneeling on the ground.

"Revered Master... Why do I feel something is wrong! This sun... seems to be suppressing us!" Jiang Nianyang said, gritting his teeth.

He struggled to support his body, but was completely unable to stand up.

"Something's wrong!" The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror was also stunned.

It hadn't even used its Divine Sense to manipulate the Formation yet, so how could imperial might actively press down?

Once its Divine Sense stirred, its pupils constricted.

Yet it saw that on the lotus platform beside them, Xie Wushang stood proudly, completely unaffected by the imperial might in the high heavens.

Even Jiang Ruoxi didn't have a single ripple, not receiving the slightest bit of influence.

"It's Brother Ji... It must be Brother Ji making a move... But how can he control Revered Master's jiuyang emperor array?"

The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror wore a look of astonishment.

This jiuyang emperor array could only be manipulated by Revered Master!

It could only open the passage leading to the emperor array's space; it couldn't control the jiuyang emperor array so easily.

"Bizarre, truly bizarre!" The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror was utterly baffled.

No matter how it thought, the one making a move was not its Brother Ji.

It was its Revered Master.

"Revered Master, take it easy. Nianyang is my son after all; don't hurt him." On the lotus platform, Xie Wushang said.

He glanced at the lotus platform beside him.

At this moment, his son was being pressed down onto one knee, gritting his teeth tightly.

He looked quite miserable and strained.

"This Revered Master is controlling the imperial might, and right now I am taking advantage of the Great Emperor's Profound Truth to cleanse his marrow and wash his tendons." The Great Emperor Jiuyang said.

He glanced at Jiang Nianyang.

"Hmph, I wonder which Emperor Weapon that is, daring to even snatch this Emperor's Opportunity."

"When this Emperor recovers his strength, I will definitely give him a piece of my mind." He wore an indignant expression.

As he spoke, Jiang Jiuyang's Divine Sense moved slightly, weakening the imperial might a bit, making Jiang Nianyang feel slightly relieved.

Yet it still suppressed him to the point where he couldn't move.

"Hehe, it is time to enter this Revered Master's Secret Realm and refine the jiuyang emperor flame left behind back then." Jiang Jiuyang laughed heartily. Xie Wushang guided a hand incantation, causing a flame passage to manifest on the lotus platform beneath his feet. With a flash of his body, he brought Jiang Ruoxi flying right into it.

"Ah, this seat's Opportunity! Brother Ji, withdraw the imperial array and let this little brother have a sip of soup too!"

"Brother Ji..."

The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror directly transmitted its voice, shouting loudly towards Xie Wushang, who was flying into the teleportation passage.

"Brother your grandpa..." Inside Xie Wushang's Sea of Consciousness disaster prison bead, Great Emperor Jiuyang muttered inwardly.

He ignored the spirit and directly plunged into the Secret Realm below.

The next moment, the light patterns on the upper lotus platform converged, the spacetime passage vanished, and everything returned to normal.

In the high heavens, nine suns bloomed, and the permeated might of the Great Emperor suppressed the Cultivators of the entire Secret Realm, making them unable to move.

"Divine Son Wushang is gone?"

"What on earth happened?"

Everyone looked at each other in dismay.

"Wushang seems to have entered the legendary place of Legacy!" Jiang Daoran's gaze flashed.

"It is said that there is an Emperor Realm Opportunity there, but for the past thirty thousand years, no one has obtained it." Great Elder Jiang Yuyang's eyes lit up.

"Wushang... has really struck a huge stroke of luck!" Jiang Daoran and Great Elder Jiang Yuyang exchanged glances.

If he obtained the Emperor Realm Opportunity, it could lay down the Great Emperor Foundation for him, increasing the probability of attaining the Dao and becoming an emperor in the future by a few more points.

"Brother Ji..." The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror cried out loudly. However, there was no response, leaving it on the verge of tears. As soon as it urged a wisp of imperial might to surge into the sky from Jiang Nianyang's body, that round of sunlight in the high heavens bloomed, evolving into a giant seal that suppressed downward.

On the giant seal, a sun was carried on its back, suppressing Jiang Nianyang's body until it bent over.

"Revered Master, you'd better stop wasting your effort; otherwise, this Disciple's frail body won't be able to endure it." Jiang Nianyang said.

"Sigh! Sigh, sigh." The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror sighed repeatedly, its face full of unwillingness.

"This Revered Master's planning for so many years... the Dao is right before my eyes... How could it fall short at the last hurdle, fall short at the last hurdle!"

"Revered Master, do not be anxious. Isn't there still Opportunity in this place? Let's wait a bit longer." Jiang Nianyang said.

"There is indeed still Opportunity... But falling behind by a single step means I'm afraid I will lag behind others at every step!" The spirit of tianyang treasure mirror said.

"This Jiang Wushang... is not only your lifelong enemy, but also this Revered Master's lifelong enemy!" It wore a heartbroken expression.

...

Beneath the lotus platform.

Jiuyang Secret Realm.

This was a boundless and vast space.

Inside, there were nine huge divine pools.

Every single divine pool was as vast as the sea.

Above each divine pool hung a sun high in the air.

The nine suns hung in the sky, their brilliance illuminating heaven and earth.

Xie Wushang and Jiang Ruoxi walked out from the spacetime passage, and as soon as they arrived in this Secret Realm, they felt the blood within their bodies boiling.

Behind them, the Sun Divine Body phenomenon manifested, resonating with this place as one three-legged golden crow after another circled and chirped around their bodies.

"Daddy, where have we arrived? Why do I feel the solar Bloodline in my body boiling... as if it's about to undergo a transformation?" Jiang Ruoxi blinked her eyes, looking with a face full of curiosity at the nine vast fire pools ahead and the nine suns in the high heavens.

"This is the Jiuyang Secret Realm of Jiuyang Emperor Valley..."

Xie Wushang looked forward and said.

"Jiuyang Secret Realm?" Jiang Ruoxi looked over, blinking her eyes.

"This was left behind by Great Emperor Jiuyang... Every divine pool contains the Great Emperor's true fire... and harbors the solar Dao Law."

Xie Wushang touched his daughter's head and said.

"Wow, the jiuyang true fire left behind by Great Emperor Jiuyang?" Hearing this, Jiang Ruoxi's eyes lit up.

"I heard that Great Emperor Jiuyang is the most stunning Great Emperor of the Jiang Clan in three hundred thousand years."

She was eager to try.

"Hehe, the little lass actually has some discernment." Inside Xie Wushang's Sea of Consciousness, Jiang Jiuyang stroked his beard and smiled with quite a bit of satisfaction.

"If you observe here, it can help you comprehend the solar Dao Law... If you gain any enlightenment, you can break through the realm and attain the Dao to become a Saint in one fell swoop."

Xie Wushang said with a doting expression.

"Mm-hmm, hehe, I must become a Saint, so that I can help Daddy beat up bad guys." Jiang Ruoxi said.

The little lass clenched her fists tightly, her face full of excitement.

The Ji Clan also had a Great Emperor Secret Realm.

However, wanting to enter required passing through layers of evaluations, which obviously wasn't something she, who was not yet in the Seventh Realm, could clear.

This time, having actually arrived at the Great Emperor's place of Legacy, she was naturally overjoyed.

She couldn't wait to refine all of that Great Emperor's true fire.

She looked expectantly at Xie Wushang.

However, the little lass was quite well-behaved. Although she really wanted to step forward, she was still waiting for Daddy to speak.

"Let's go!" Xie Wushang brought his daughter and flew toward a Sun Divine Platform located at the center of the nine divine pools ahead.
