Immortal God Emperor

Chapter 862 - A Plan

Chapter 862 - A Plan

In this vast and boundless Void that was as big as the universe, Ye Qingyu sat on a floating circular stone platform and unleashed his consciousness power. He constantly caught the stars and read the jade slips. He was like a sponge that frantically absorbed the surrounding water droplets.

The process of catching a star seemed like an easy task, but in fact, it greatly depleted his consciousness power. He needed to rely on his consciousness power to catch the stars, and also required it to read the jade slips, so it placed a ma.s.sive strain on his consciousness power.

Time ticked by slowly.

Ye Qingyu had already finished reading through a section of the stars that were closest to him.

Over the past two hours, he had moved together with his divine sense to constantly try to cover an even greater area.

However, this was the [Infinite a.r.s.enal] that had no end, so he could not sense its limits at all.

He could not hold back an exclamation of surprise.

It seemed as though no matter how many stars he plucked, an infinite number of stars continued to twinkle at him in the Void.

As he continued to catch and read through the jade slips, Ye Qingyu also discovered many facts about the races and their techniques that were previously unheard of.

This was the best representation of the insignificance of these living organisms" lives compared to the boundlessness of the myriad domains.

One day quickly flew by.

Ye Qingyu"s face finally showed signs of fatigue.

He retracted his divine sense and sat on the floating round stone platform. He breathed slowly as he activated his nameless breathing technique to replenish his divine sense.

The only way to read as many of these treasured manuals of martial techniques as possible was to constantly replenish his divine sense as soon as it was depleted.

Fortunately, the nameless breathing technique he cultivated since childhood had this effect and his divine sense had undergone refinement since it entered the[Cloud Top Cauldron], which made it extremely powerful. He had continued to diligently cultivate it and now his divine sense was comparable to a Peak Saint realm expert.

Another two hours or so pa.s.sed.

Ye Qingyu let out a long exhalation.

He sensed that he was almost back to his peak condition. He then used qi to unleashed his divine sense once again and headed toward the faraway stars and jade slips in the Void.

He repeated the entire process again.

Without any distractions in this Void, Ye Qingyu completely immersed himself in this endless cycle of catching the stars, reading, and then resting.

In Heaven Connect City—

In the representative station of the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect—

The Ancient Sky Dragon Sect had been on the decline for many years but it had a rich foundation with a long history and was still recognized as one of the ancient sects in the myriad domains. Therefore, it still had a representative station within Heaven Connect City.

However, in contrast to the super forces, its representative station was located in a very remote area and it was not very big. It looked like a simple and unsophisticated courtyard.

Within the meeting hall—

Elder Mingjue sat on the highest seat and his expression was serious as he engaged several young disciples in a discussion.

"Elder, what should we do now? We"ve heard that the person who stood up on behalf of Qin Hui, that lowly maid was none of other than Ye Qingyu of the Heaven Wasteland Domain. This [Ice Sword Killing G.o.d] was someone who did not even take the Black Moon Immortal Palace seriously." One of the disciples looked a little nervous. He looked completely different from the posturing and arrogant person earlier.

Everything seemed to have gone very smoothly. After they completely eradicated the nominal successor Tian Ning, they would be considered the new generation of heroes, rather than the rebel disciples that they were. Prestige and fortune were almost within their reach.

n.o.body expected that just as they were about to capture Qin Hui and her son, a random stranger would suddenly appear and publicly protect them. Not only did they fail to escape safely after committing murder at the congress divine temple, none of the disciples present, including Elder Mingjue, were his match.

After they left the divine temple congress hall, these disciples immediately spread out across the city to collect more information about Ye Qingyu. They did not expect the news they heard to cause a chill to run down their spines.

It turned out that the Ye Qingyu they encountered in the congress divine temple was the very same Ye Qingyu that had made a name for himself on the Road of Chaos over the past month. He was the talented young genius of the Human Race who was known as the [Ice Sword Killing G.o.d] and also the Bloodthirsty Maniac Ye!

He dared to single-handedly challenge the Black Moon Immortal Palace, which was supported by many super forces, and killed many Saints and nefarious characters. Above all, he was even powerful enough to cause the Great Saint, an elder of the Black Moon Immortal Palace, to flee in terror.

These disciples were merely at the beginner"s Immortal Step realm and even Elder Mingjue himself could barely count as one in the higher Immortal Step realm . To a killing G.o.d such as Ye Qingyu, they were just like ants that he could crush easily.

As they discovered more about that random stranger, a cold sweat broke out all over their bodies.

It looked as though what he said in the congress divine temple was true after all and that he did not want to kill others because he was in good spirits. Otherwise, they would have faced the same fate as the disciple who was frozen into an ice block.

The thought of that struck fear into their hearts, then they could not hold back a s.h.i.+ver.

However, there were several others in the representative station who were not too bothered.

"Although Ye Qingyu has risen to fame recently, he is nothing but a n.o.body from a new domain. Furthermore, by interfering in our sect"s affairs, he has flouted the rules."

A disciple who had not seen Ye Qingyu but only heard a few rumors about him piped up defiantly.

"Exactly. Elder, are we going to let that mother and son off just like that? If our sect leader finds out, we will not be able to bear responsibility for it. We can"t give up at this stage.”

"Yes, how could we let the matter go so easily? We were so close to succeeding, and if we let that idiot Tian Ning escape with his life..."

"What else can we do? We will not be able to go against that Maniac Ye with our current strength. We"d definitely lose, furthermore..."

The rebel disciples of the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect started arguing amongst themselves, unable to come up with a concrete plan.

"Shut up! What are you arguing about? You are all spouting nonsense! This matter has become a little tricky..." Elder Mingjue suddenly interrupted them and broke his silence. "Ye Qingyu is an accomplished young man who has special amnesty. We can"t afford to have him as our enemy because he is far too powerful. However, we definitely can"t let Qin Hui and her son off either. Since Ye Qingyu has already declared that he will visit our sect, we should first make our way back and report this incident to our sect leader and Elder Cang Li to send out letters of invitation to our allies requesting their support. Then, we should set up a killing formation, so in the event that he truly dares to come, the Ancient Sky Dragon Domain shall be his burial place.”

Elder Mingjue eked out the last part through gritted teeth.

He decided to retreat for now.

In fact, since he had witnessed Ye Qingyu"s power and saw the special amnesty that he was granted after he killed someone in the divine temple, Elder Mingjue knew that the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect was in a tricky situation. Qin Hui and her son must have garnered the support of an ancient divine mountain and he naturally would not search for them to engage in senseless arguments.

Furthermore, Elder Mingjue knew that even if they gathered all the top experts of the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect, they might not be able to handle the bloodthirsty killing G.o.d.

At the moment, he felt that only if several elders of the Ancient Sky Dragon Sect joined forces to deploy the right forces, then invited their allies to join forces on their land, would they then be able to stand a chance against Ye Qingyu.

The evening had arrived and the sky of Heaven Connect City was faintly tinted pink by the clouds.

However, there was no interchange of day or night in the [Infinite a.r.s.enal].

There were only the dark night sky and the stars.

Ye Qingyu remained standing on the stone platform, as though he was meditating.

Up in the Void that was thousands of meters from where he was—

His divine sense continued to pluck at those starry jade slips in a frenzy as he made use of every second he had to read secret technique manuals.

Another two or three days pa.s.sed.

In the eastern meeting hall of the Green Xuan Hall—

Empress Yu Xiaoxing slowly rose to her feet and let out a long exhale as she stretched her body.

She had been kept extremely busy over the past few days.

She did not even remember being that busy during the period after her ascension to the throne of the Heaven Wasteland Dynasty. Countless sects, forces, chambers of commerce, distinguished families, and financial groups had all visited and requested to work with the Heaven Wasteland Domain. They all had their own set of conditions and Yu Xiaoxing had to deal with them one at a time. She did not keep anyone waiting too long which resulted in her not having time to rest at all.

Nor did she want to rest.

She was well-aware of the price they paid to get this far.

They had paid the price with brother Ye Qingyu"s blood and bones. Everything they had now was the result of brother Ye Qingyu"s hard-fought battles where his life was on the line each time. No one knew how much pressure he faced, or how many times he was injured, or how much blood he shed, or the sacrifices he made… The prestige they enjoyed was all due to brother Ye Qingyu.

All she had to do was properly manage the resources that brother Ye Qingyu had left her. She could not be by his side as he carved out a b.l.o.o.d.y path for them, but she could help him stabilize the area and allay his concerns.

After she stretched, she returned to her table and picked up a bright-yellow silk book. There were many names recorded on it and this was the first batch of the envoy mission members she selected to return to the Heaven Wasteland Domain after discussions with several core members of the envoy mission.

The domain grading had come to an end and they would need to make further progress on their tasks ahead. After yesterday"s discussion, it was decided that the first batch of members to return to the Heaven Wasteland Domain would depart seven days later.

Yu Xiaoxing would return along with them.

She was the Empress and the country could not go too long without its ruler.

She had already spent more than a month outside the Heaven Wasteland Domain, so she wanted to make haste back to the Heaven Wasteland Dynasty to stabilize the overall situation.
