68: Chapter 68 Heavenly Emperor Scripture

The blood qi of the man and the monkey was recovering at high speed.

Only half an hour passed, and they were once again full of vigor.

"Are you two ready?"

Xing Mu looked at Ye Xiu and Hou Liubai, asking a question identical to the one before.

Hou Liubai's furry face darkened.

Ye Xiu's expression didn't look much better either.

He looked at the increasingly saintly Xing Mu and asked with a grave expression, "What is inside?"

"The Legacy you desire. However, whether you have the qualifications to obtain it depends on yourselves. After all, how could just anyone who comes by comprehend such a sutra?"

Hou Liubai also wanted to ask a question.

But he was stopped by a look from Xing Mu. She continued, "I do not remember much about the memories inside; I can only vaguely determine the storage locations of some important items."

As she spoke, she pushed open the palace doors.

In the main hall, the fragrance of pills overflowed, and the purity of the Spiritual Qi was even significantly higher than the rewards in the Imperial Court Secret Realm.

What surprised Ye Xiu even more were those spirits of rules that resembled elves.

Flames, ice crystals, water mists, and the like—these little things resembling elves were all condensed from rules.

If a Cultivator could absorb them, they would definitely be able to comprehend the corresponding Dao of rules.

"These are all good things..."

Hou Liubai couldn't help but swallow his saliva, looking like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.

"The good things are in the back."

Xing Mu chuckled softly and walked in first.

Following her arrival, a slightly larger fire spirit in the main hall immediately flew to their side.

"Eh, who are you all?"

The fire spirit spoke in human language, somewhat puzzled as to why these outsiders were here.

"A good thing indeed."

Hou Liubai looked at the fire spirit that had delivered itself to his doorstep. With a grab of his furry hand, he caught the head-sized fire spirit.

He glanced at Xing Mu and asked, "Um, can I catch a few more of these things in your home?"

"As you wish."

Xing Mu acted like a wealthy tycoon, not caring about these things at all.

Her feet didn't stop as she walked toward the rear hall.

Ye Xiu was also somewhat tempted. Although he couldn't use these rule spirits, they were absolute treasures; they would make for a great gift when doing favors in the future.

But seeing Xing Mu gradually walking away, he had to give up the idea of catching them and followed.

"Hey, wait for me."

Hou Liubai caught another ice spirit and hurriedly chased after them just as they were about to leave the main hall.

In the rear hall, seven spatial barriers represented seven Secret Realms.

Xing Mu forced two drops of blood from her fingertips, splashing them separately onto two of the barriers.

Sizzle... The barriers fluctuated, slowly forming an entrance.

"The Heavenly Emperor Sutra is in the third entrance, and the Sacred Emperor Sutra is in the fifth. Hurry up; there seems to be some commotion at the external passageway."

Xing Mu frowned slightly, as if she sensed something unpleasant.

Ye Xiu and Hou Liubai said nothing and, with a whoosh, disappeared into the barrier entrances.

"There are always some ants who like to disturb this palace."

In Xing Mu's eyes, the image of the Main World appeared.

In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, at the passageway, many eerie figures were pulling toward the phoenix feather brush.

Black mist, like some kind of rule, transformed into a pitch-black giant hand, resisting the golden light on the phoenix feather brush.

She watched for a while, shook her head slightly, ignored it, and walked into the first barrier on her own.

Ye Xiu passed through the barrier and appeared directly in a small palace hall. It was empty on all sides, and except for a wooden box, there was nothing else.

"Is the Heavenly Emperor Sutra inside here?"

He was somewhat excited and expectant, walking slowly toward the wooden box.

Can't open it? He didn't know what kind of Materials the wooden box was made of; no matter how much strength Ye Xiu used, he couldn't shake it in the slightest.

"Could it be that I'm opening it the wrong way?"

Ye Xiu recalled Xing Mu's previous action of dripping blood. That girl would never do anything pointless. Was it a test? How truly boring.

A drop of blood was forced from his fingertip and dripped onto the wooden box. Thud... The wooden box was stained with a trace of blood color, and there was actually a trembling sound of something inside.

"Still can't open it?"

Ye Xiu exerted force again, still unable to open the wooden box, but the previous trembling meant it should have had an effect.

He was somewhat suspicious and uncertain, and blood dripped from his fingertips again. Thud, thud... This time, the trembling inside the wooden box was clearer, sounding several times in a row.

Ye Xiu tried again, but the wooden box still didn't have any changes.

"Interesting."

Blood flowed like water. Within a few minutes, Ye Xiu had forced out at least a hundred drops of blood, and the wooden box was completely dyed red.

But even so, this wooden box still wouldn't open.

"The method should be correct. Am I being stingy?"

Ye Xiu frowned slightly and pressed his hand on the wooden box. His blood qi erupted, and he poured his blood qi directly into it.

Boom... The wooden box vibrated, showing traces of cracking. Ten minutes later, with a bang, the wooden box shattered, and a sutra dyed red by blood instantly appeared in the main hall.

The Heavenly Emperor Sutra? Ye Xiu couldn't be sure.

Just as he prepared to grab it, the sutra, with a whoosh, flew directly into his Sea of Consciousness, rushing toward the suspended [purple qi] to devour it.

"Damn, so it had its eyes on the [purple qi]."

Furious in his heart, his consciousness took form and appeared directly in his Sea of Consciousness.

He controlled the [purple qi], hiding it within his condensed consciousness, and reached out to grab the sutra again.

The sutra didn't dodge and was grabbed directly by Ye Xiu.

Boom! In an instant, countless obscure and difficult ancient characters immediately surged into his mind.

The [purple qi] was being consumed, parsing one ancient character after another.

In the main hall, Ye Xiu sat cross-legged on the ground. His physical strength was increasing at high speed, and the terrifying sound of his heartbeat made the main hall tremble.

Cultivation has no passage of time. When the [purple qi] in his consciousness was completely consumed, the cultivation of the Heavenly Emperor Sutra also ended completely.

The first level. At this moment, although Ye Xiu's Realm was still at the [Shengui Realm], his physical strength, under the blessing of the [Heavenly Emperor Sutra], had more than doubled.

Reaching a staggering four hundred thousand.

Besides that, the Dao technique he had been looking forward to was also comprehended, thanks to the [purple qi].

The Heavenly Emperor Fist!

A Dao technique no weaker than the [Zhu Xian Style].

This type of fist technique is not restricted by the Karma of the world and can be used as a trump card.

It is just a pity that he had only cultivated the [Heavenly Emperor Sutra] to the first level.

And the power of this [Heavenly Emperor Fist] would vary with the level of cultivation of the [Heavenly Emperor Sutra].

But even so, this [Heavenly Emperor Fist] was probably several times stronger than the second stage of [Pride of the World].

"Is this the great power of the ancient heavenly technique?"

No wonder the past incarnation of Xing Mu, although only at the [Shengui Realm], was still able to pin him and Hou Liubai down and beat them.
