117: Seven Principles

For a month, the entire Hundred Domains Land was plunged into panic. The Xu Family had an irreversible Royal Sealing expert, which immediately shattered the existing power structure of the Hundred Domains Land. Most of the local Sect forces quickly pledged allegiance to the Xu Family.

However, those top-tier forces, backed by various Emperor Domain powers from the Nanming Divine Continent, were unwilling to submit from the bottom of their hearts. Yet, they feared the Xu Family might go mad and slaughter them all, leaving them nowhere to cry.

Under these circumstances, some forces, adhering to the idea that a wise man doesn't suffer immediate losses, headed to the Guquan Great Territory. But there were also some stubborn ones who believed the Xu Family wouldn't act.

Among them were those from Huale Palace.

The final outcome was predictable: three days later, the seven foreign forces, led by Huale Palace, were all massacred. Even their branches in the Land of Thousand Domains were completely wiped out.

As soon as this happened, the two Great Domains were shaken. The Xu Family's dominance instilled fear in them, and forces from various Great Domains took action, helping to build the Profound Yellow Prefecture and other structures.

Even those foreign forces with ulterior motives ceased their activities. Of course, they weren't submitting to the Xu Family, but rather waiting for their backing powers to send strong experts.

The might of a Royal Sealing expert was not something they could contend with. Those seven families all possessed Royal Sealing expert decrees, but they were utterly useless.

Ancient Time Land!

Xu Qing woke up. He had been comprehending here for nearly a month, which was equivalent to cultivating for about ten months in the outside world. Xu Qing had mastered thirteen Daos.

He wielded Chaos, Space, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Destruction, Life, Myriad Thunder, Wind, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

In the previous month, he had successfully comprehended twelve Laws, excluding the Space Law, to Perfection, and successfully constructed his Divine Venerable Domain.

He used Chaos as the primary, supplemented by the twelve Law powers of Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Destruction, Life, Myriad Thunder, Wind, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

That's right, others constructed their Divine Venerable Domain with nine Laws, while Xu Qing used twelve. Although it was already saturated, Xu Qing had a premonition that he seemed to have forged a path different from other Martial Artists.

And these twelve Law powers were not used arbitrarily by him.

Chaos, also known as Taiji, as the saying goes, Taiji gives birth to two polarities, two polarities give birth to four phenomena, and four phenomena give birth to eight trigrams.

The two polarities are Yin and Yang, the four phenomena are greater yang, greater yin, lesser yang, and lesser yin, and the four phenomena are further divided into eight trigrams, namely heaven, earth, thunder, wind, water, mountain, fire, and lake.

Yin and Yang include Five Elements, and Five Elements contain Yin and Yang. This is why Five Elements must be combined with Yin and Yang.

And Chaos also contains creation and destruction. Life and destruction are also branches of the Chaos Great Dao.

Therefore, the arrangement of Xu Qing's Divine Venerable Domain was primarily Chaos, from which Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Destruction, and Life branched out. Below Yin and Yang were the two Daos of Thunder and Wind, and below Five Elements were Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

A Divine Venerable Domain constructed by twelve Law powers was not just a little bit stronger. Xu Qing's cultivation did not increase, but his combat power increased by dozens of times.

Of course, starting from the King Realm, Xu Qing's advancement difficulty also greatly increased.

The Royal Sealing Realm is a level higher than Venerable Realm beings. Like the King Realm, if anyone in the Family breaks through to the Royal Sealing Realm, the entire Family's Royal Sealing bloodline will be activated.

Royal Sealing mighty figures, every move they make can attract immense Heavenly and Earthly power. A single breath can draw in all the surrounding Origin Qi. At this Realm, it is almost impossible for their Divine Power to be depleted.

To achieve a Breakthrough to the Royal Sealing Realm, the first step is to temper the Physical Body into a Royal Sealing Physique, and one Law power evolves into a Law; the second step is to condense the Divine Venerable Domain within the body into a small world, which requires the heart of space. After the small world is successfully condensed, the Royal Sealing Great Tribulation will arrive. Surviving it allows one to become a Royal Sealing expert.

The first Realm of a Royal Sealing expert is the Royal Sealing Realm. Their Lifespan is a full ten epochs (one epoch is 129,600 years). In this Realm, three Law powers need to evolve into Laws. Many Royal Sealing experts with insufficient Comprehension Ability are trapped at this step for their entire lives.

The second Realm is the Mystic Sovereign Realm. In this Realm, the remaining six Law powers need to evolve into Laws. The Lifespan is twenty epochs.

It is extremely difficult to evolve so many Law powers into Laws. This is why many Royal Sealing experts throughout history stopped at the Mystic Sovereign Realm.

But who told Xu Qing to have a cheat?

Over the next six months or so, Xu Qing was comprehending Laws. In six months, he successively comprehended the seven Laws of Five Elements, Myriad Thunder, Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, and reached the Perfection level.

The Myriad Thunder Law was due to his complete absorption of the rewarded Myriad Thunder Law at Perfection, while the five Laws of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth benefited from the Five-Needle Pine fruit.

Being able to comprehend the Five Elements Law, one of the Ten Supreme Daos, was also thanks to the Five Elements power formed by the Five-Needle Pine fruit, which helped Xu Qing completely absorb the Five Elements Law bestowed by the Heavenly Dao when he broke through to the Marquis Realm.

Therefore, in terms of Law comprehension, Xu Qing had already surpassed many Mystic Sovereigns. Coupled with the Eight Nine Arcane Art having been cultivated to the Middle Stage of the third turn, not inferior to a Mystic Sovereign Physique, Xu Qing's strength was enough to counter Mystic Sovereigns. As for Heavenly Sovereigns, he couldn't do that yet.

The third Realm of a Royal Sealing expert is the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. In this Realm, nine Laws need to be branded onto the small world. For each brand, the small world will receive the blessing of the Eternal Continent's Origin Law of the same type. The Lifespan is thirty epochs.

The difference in Realm between the Royal Sealing Realm and the Mystic Sovereign Realm is not that great, but the Heavenly Sovereign Realm is different. Even with just the blessing of one Origin Law, its strength is not comparable to the Mystic Sovereign Realm.

The two words 'Heavenly Sovereign' evoke majestic heavenly might, suppressing heaven and earth. Without a Divine Sovereign, the Royal Sealing expert is heaven—this is a Heavenly Sovereign, showing their immense strength.

The fourth Realm, Divine Sovereign, is where one's own Laws, essence, Qi, and spirit are condensed together to form a Divine Sovereign mark, which is then branded onto the Heavenly Dao. Experts who reach this Realm can reflect all heavens, their great power reaching the sky. A single thought can influence the Heavenly Dao and bring down divine punishment to attack enemies.

Their Lifespan even reaches fifty epochs!

"By my calculations, the family points should have arrived, right!"

"System, transfer the money!"

Xu Qing shouted arrogantly.

System: Sometimes, it's quite helpless!

[Host: Xu Qing]

[Age: Eighteen]

[Identity: Young Master of the Xu Family]

[Cultivation: Divine Venerable Perfection]

[Aptitude: Eternal]

[Physique: Chaos Dao Body]

[Luck: Golden]

[Power: Royal Sealing Family]

[Family Mall: Royal Sealing Level]

[family points: 156440]

[Clan Luck Spirit: Five-Clawed Golden Dragon (330,000 zhang)]

[Talent: Investment Return, Plunder Luck, Heavenly Secret Obscuration, Heavenly Venerable Pressure, Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains!]

"Tsk~, 145,270 family points increased. It seems the Hundred Domains Land and the Land of Thousand Domains have been unified; the Clan Luck Golden Dragon has reached 330,000 zhang, generating 33,000 family points, not bad!"

Over 150,000 family points, theoretically enough for Xu Qing to exchange for Divine Sovereign cultivation, but his combat power wouldn't meet the expected standard because he lacked Laws, couldn't brand the Heavenly Dao, and couldn't condense a Divine Sovereign mark. He would just be a pseudo-Divine Sovereign with empty cultivation.

One must eat one bite at a time. With the Ancient Time Land, Breakthrough is only a matter of time.

Now, Xu Qing was only one step away from condensing a small world to achieve a Breakthrough to the Royal Sealing Realm.

But there was no rush; he should go out and attend the Clan Chief's grand ceremony.

After leaving the Ancient Time Land, Xu Qing came to the Taiji Hall and summoned Qian Duoduo, asking if anything had happened recently.

Unexpectedly, something truly had happened. Besides the various Great Domains establishing one hundred and three Profound Yellow Prefectures under Wang Changfeng's supervision, the Guardian of No. 1 Zhenguan City had come to visit, wishing to see Xu Qing.

However, since Xu Qing was in seclusion, he was arranged in the Profound Yellow Palace. Although called a palace, it had now become a thousand-mile-wide city. While it couldn't compare to the giant cities outside, it was sufficient in Cloud Mist Mountain.

Xu Qing pondered briefly and understood the other party's intention. It just so happened that he also wanted to ask the other party some things.

He always felt that the Domain where he was located was somewhat unusual, so he asked Qian Duoduo to invite the other party.
