21: Chapter 21 Xuan Tian Holy Land

Someone might say.

The Imperial Family has had many Celestial Realm experts in the past.

Not to mention anything else.

Just look at the current three Imperial Dynasty Old Ancestors; they are Celestial Realm experts.

Then why can they not sense the Luck of the Imperial Dynasty?

Actually, the reason is very simple.

They are not the Emperor!

To sense the Luck of the Imperial Dynasty, or even to control the Luck of the Imperial Dynasty, one must meet three conditions.

First, one must be the Emperor.

Second, one's strength must reach the Celestial Realm.

Third, and this is the most important point, one must obtain the recognition of the Imperial Dynasty's Luck!

Like those who usurp the throne through treason.

Even if they can become Emperor, they will never obtain the recognition of the Imperial Dynasty's Luck.

Why can Wang Chen do it?

Because although his behavior was somewhat extreme and appeared similar to treason and usurpation.

But in essence, there is a difference.

Because he was originally the Emperor's own son, he had the qualifications to inherit the throne.

As long as he competed against his brothers, he would be able to successfully ascend the throne; he merely accelerated the process.

Therefore.

There is no problem with him inheriting the throne.

Even the Luck of the Imperial Dynasty recognized his legitimacy immediately...

As time passed.

Ji Gang and the others had already crossed an endless distance, getting closer and closer to Xuantian Holy Land.

However.

Wang Chen, sitting in the imperial palace, frowned slightly.

He could clearly feel that as Ji Gang and the others moved further away from the imperial city, his control over the Luck of the Imperial Dynasty began to drop significantly.

"It seems I need to speed up. Once I have the entire Imperial Dynasty under my control, I estimate I will be able to achieve a Breakthrough to the Land Immortal Realm."

Since ascending the throne.

Wang Chen could clearly feel that his strength was gradually improving under the influence of the Imperial Dynasty's Luck.

However.

His Aptitude was too poor, and coupled with the limited Luck of the Imperial Dynasty.

This resulted in his improvement not being particularly significant.

Of course.

This is because the Imperial Dynasty had already entered its final stages, and many places were no longer under the control of the Imperial Dynasty.

If it were the Peak period of the Imperial Dynasty.

Relying on that massive Power of Imperial Fortune, he estimated that at the moment he ascended the throne, he would have been able to directly achieve a Breakthrough to the Land Immortal Realm.

Even if his Aptitude was very poor.

As long as the Power of Imperial Fortune was strong enough, he would still be able to achieve a Breakthrough to a very high Realm!

Thinking of this, Wang Chen's gaze turned cold.

During this period.

Whoever dared to stand in the way of him becoming stronger.

He would execute them...

"Xuantian Holy Land..."

"My imperial hegemony, my path of becoming a strong expert, shall begin with you..."

On the other side.

Ji Gang and the others, with the help of Wang Chen utilizing the Power of Imperial Fortune, transformed into a black torrent, directly tearing through the Void Realm and speeding toward the south!

They were not simply flying; it was more like they were being pushed forward by an invisible, massive, and majestic force.

Everywhere they passed.

Whether it was ordinary residents of cities or various Sect forces, everyone fell into panic!

"Boom!!!"

A low sonic boom rolled across the sky like muffled thunder.

Immediately after.

A terrifying pressure mixed with cold-bloodedness, killing intent, and the Aura of Celestial Realm experts swept across the sky like an invisible tsunami!

"What... what is that?!"

"Such... such a terrifying Aura! Although it only flashed by, I feel like my heart is about to jump out!"

"The pressure of Celestial Realm experts? And... and there is more than one!"

"It looks like they came from the direction of the imperial city? Could they be people from the Imperial Dynasty?"

"Impossible, how could the Imperial Dynasty still have such powerful strength! This... this is absolutely impossible!"

"Quick! Send people to investigate immediately! Which force is this? Why did we not receive any news at all?!"

"Trash! A bunch of trash! Such a terrifying team, and we did not receive any information beforehand? What is their intelligence department doing?!"

...

However.

This time, they really wronged those intelligence personnel.

When Ji Gang and the others had just rushed out of the imperial city, the spies from various sides lurking in the imperial city had sent out intelligence at the highest level immediately.

However.

How could the speed at which they transmitted messages compare to the speed of Ji Gang and the others?

Often, just as the spies' secret reports left the imperial city.

Ji Gang and the others had already driven the black torrent and appeared thousands of kilometers away.

The speed of information transmission.

For the first time, in the face of absolute power, it appeared so pale and lagging!

This fear of the unknown.

Made the leaders of countless forces along the way restless, and cast a thick shadow over their hearts.

They vaguely sensed that.

It was likely.

That something big was about to happen...

And inside Xuantian Holy Land.

At this moment, they did not know what was happening outside; inside and outside the mountain gate, it was still a scene of celebration.

Because today.

Was exactly the day for their Xuantian Holy Land to select a Saint!

The Saint of the School.

Represented the future master of the Holy Land and was the next generation's core leader of the Sect; the selection concerned the rise and fall of the Holy Land.

Therefore.

Not only were all the Elders, True Disciples, and Inner Sect Disciples within the Holy Land present, but many Core Disciples who were traveling outside or in secluded cultivation had also rushed back.

What was even more noteworthy was.

Even that Celestial Realm Old Ancestor, who lived in seclusion deep within the Holy Land all year round and was rarely seen, had appeared.

At this moment.

On the core square of Xuantian Holy Land, the atmosphere had reached its Peak.

Everyone's gaze was fixed on the center of the square, on that huge competition stage.

Because on that stage.

Two young men were fiercely clashing!

Both of them were the most outstanding Disciples of this generation in the Holy Land; young as they were, they had already Cultivated to the Peak of the Innate Realm, and at this moment, for the position of Saint, they had already fought for over a hundred rounds.

The two fought with all their might.

Drawing gasps of amazement from the audience below, pushing the atmosphere to its highest climax!

"Senior Brother Lin's 'Clear Breeze Willow-Brushing Sword' has become increasingly exquisite!"

"Senior Brother Shi's 'Mountain-Crushing Strength' is truly domineering! One force overcomes ten techniques!"

"The two are evenly matched! I wonder who will have the last laugh?"

"Look! Shi Poshan is about to use his ultimate move!"

...

Following the last clash between the two on the stage.

The audience below instantly erupted into earth-shattering cheers!

One of the men, surnamed Shi, relying on his superior foundation, ultimately won this Peak duel!

On the high platform.

After a few Elders exchanged glances, they all nodded slightly, their eyes filled with satisfaction.

The presiding Elder of the ceremony saw this.

Stood up and cleared his throat, preparing to announce this historic result.

"After the final competition, True Disciple Shi Poshan of the Tianshu Peak has shown superior skill! Now I announce, the position of Saint for this session goes to Shi Po..."

"Boom!!"

Before the word "shan" could be uttered, it was interrupted by a roaring sound.

Without any warning.

A low yet incredibly clear humming sound seemed to come from very far away, and also seemed to ring directly in the depths of everyone's Soul!

Immediately after.

An indescribable and massive pressure, like a ten-thousand-foot-tall mountain, crashed down upon them.

In just an instant.

That terrifying pressure shrouded the entire Xuantian Holy Land!

The originally clear sky.

Did not know when it had darkened!

That was not dark clouds.

But a thick, impenetrable blackness, spreading from the northern sky at a terrifying speed!

Within that blackness, it contained a heart-palpitating killing intent, coldness, and... unmasked will of destruction!

"What is going on?"

"What is that?"

"Such... such a terrifying Aura!!"

"Could it be an enemy attack? But who would dare to come to my Xuantian Holy Land to act wildly..."
