Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

Various influences from all over the world started taking action after Fang Xingjian released the news. Aside from Claudia, there were also other Divine level experts who snooped into the palace at night, hoping to find out the secrets of the Divine Sun Emperor’s treasures.

However, even though Claudia’s clone was killed by Fang Xingjian, she managed to hide from his Sudden Inspiration senses with the help of her Divine Country.

Other Divine level experts, who had yet to reached tier five of the Divine level, not only had to suffer a fate of having their clones killed, but their actual bodies were also unable to escape.

However, there were still people who relied on secret arts that concealed their bodies and auras, hoping to infiltrate into the palace.

Within a mere ten days, a total of three Divine level experts were either captured or killed. One of them attempted to turn into countless pieces and integrate into normal people’s consciousness, but they were picked out and crushed by Fang Xingjian’s sword attack.

Another person concealed his cultivation and turned into a flying bird, nesting in the palace. He was seized by Fang Xingjian and slashed into a mist of blood by a single sword attack.

The last person even turned into a plant, slowly growing his way from underground. However, he was uprooted by Fang Xingjian, had his cultivation crippled, and was now made to teach in the Royal Academy.

By taking down three Divine level experts in succession, Fang Xingjian once again displayed his abilities to rule in addition to deterring other Divine level experts from laying a hand on the Imperial Capital’s palace. His Sword Overlord reputation took the land by storm once again.

In the days that followed, Fang Xingjian studied martial arts together with Ulpian and the Immortality Saint while concurrently helping his subordinates in their Divine level cultivation. He also did a purge of the court, especially in the East Military Execution Order that was under Tyrant.

...

In the blink of an eye, almost three months had passed.

Today was the day that Fang Xingjian had called for the Divine Treasures Meeting. Right now, both the inside and outside of the Imperial Capital were filled with people. Countless experts from various places in the world had gathered here.

The respective city gates and passess were assigned with Conferred Knights as well as guards from the East Military Execution Order. There was also a long queue outside the city gate.

Maria was in the queue as well. She looked at the Imperial Capital’s city walls, and a hint of yearning flashed on her face.

At this moment, there was a hubbub amongst the queue, with everyone discussing about the Divine Treasures Meeting.

“Most of the Divine level experts in the land have probably all come.”

“Look! That’s the Zhenyi ¹ Sect’s Old Man Ruyi ² from the north. It’s said that he attained a breakthrough to tier three of the Divine level two months ago! To think that he also came to take part in the Divine Treasures Meeting this time around...”

“And that person over there is the patriarch of the Dragon King Cult from the northern barbaric tribe, the World Salutation Dragon King. He was a Divine level expert amongst the northern barbaric tribe to begin with and has become even stronger now.”

Maria looked at the many experts in the crowd and a hint of solemnity gradually lit up in her eyes.

Three months ago, she had met Fang Xingjian in the forbidden grounds located in the Eastern Sand Region. After being saved by him, Fang Xingjian imparted her with the Prodigious Demolition Sword Physique and told her to look for him in the Imperial Capital if she managed to reached the maximum level for this technique within three months’ time.

She had initially thought that it would be impossible for her to reach the maximum level for the Prodigious Demolition Sword Physique within three months given her aptitude. However, her understanding and aptitude toward martial arts seemed to improve in leaps and bounds during these three months. One month ago, she had even reached stepped into the second transition.

Her understanding of the Prodigious Demolition Sword Physique also advanced at a tremendous pace. She really managed to reached the maximum level for this technique within three months.

Naturally, she came to the Imperial Capital, wanting to look for Fang Xingjian. However, she had also coincidentally encountered the Divine Treasures Meeting that was a rare occurrence even in a hundred years.

This was also the first time that Maria had met so many experts. She had never realized there were so many second transition Knights and Divine level experts in the world.

‘The world’s metamorphosis has caused the number of experts to keep on increasing. The number of Divine level experts, which was a rare sight previously, has also become more than before,’ Maria thought. Looking at the scene before her, Maria sighed and continued thinking, ‘Right now, Conferred Knights are probably just ant-like existences in the Imperial Capital. Even the Divine level experts merely have some abilities to protect themselves. Only those tier four or even tier five Divine level experts would be able to see through things with their wills.’

Just then, an overwhelming power descended from the sky. A martial will that was like a volcanic eruption cut across the sky, wanting to cross the walls and then land in the city.

Countless people gasped, “It’s a Divine level expert!”

Maria thought, ‘This person doesn’t want to queue up and wishes to enter the city directly?’

Just as this gush of power was about to cross the city walls and barge into the city, there was a cold snort, and a blue moon gradually rose up from the ground. It emitted a series of chillness. Wherever it passed by, it seemed as if even air was going to be frozen up. The Divine level expert was blocked outside.

With an explosive rumble , the winds and clouds in the sky seethed as the two Divine level experts’ powers clashed together. That expert whose martial will was like a volcano was forced to reveal himself, showing the appearance of an old man with crimson hair and brows.

“It’s Old Man Earthfire!”

“That’s the number one expert in the Earthfire Country, a small country overseas.”

“Hmph, a small country from overseas doesn’t know the right etiquette. Does he think that he can do as he likes in the Imperial Capital just like he does in other places?”

Old Man Earthfire’s eyes narrowed, and a hint of cold gleam flashed as he said coldly, “Who is stopping me?”

With a flash, Lan Yue appeared before Old Man Earthfire. Her fair face now appeared even more beautiful. After the past three months of cultivation, her martial will was now emitting a deep and unfathomable disposition.

“It’s Fairy Lan Yue!”

“The Fairy has become even more beautiful!”

“I’d even be willing to give up ten years of my life if I can exchange just a word with Fairy Lan Yue!”

Looking at Lan Yue who was wearing blue robes and standing in midair like a fairy, Maria’s gaze lit up. “It’s one of the five experts under the Lord.”

By relying on the nine levels of mystical prints over the past three months, the Fourth Prince, Lan Yue, the Astral Ancestor, the Blue Sacred Moonlight, Third Prince, and Prince Philip had formed pairs to strive to advance their Divine levels. They had even relied on the Church’s method to pick the worlds they traveled to as well as to proliferate their time spent there. The capabilities of all six of them had improved tremendously.

However, the Fourth Prince had not really made a move. The other five people were the ones helping to suppress the various factions, sweeping through the plains and establishing great reputations for themselves.

A series of gasps rang out on the ground. After hearing Old Man Earthfire’s question, Lan Yue—who was in the sky—said indifferently, “Other than experts who are at tier five of the Divine level of higher, no one can fly freely in the Imperial Capital.”

After saying this, blue moon gradually rose up behind Old Man Earthfire’s back. The blue moon got increasingly close to Old Man Earthfire’s position, to the extent that it seemed to be rapidly magnifying in size. It was as if the many mountain ranges and valleys in the moon could be seen clearly.

Old Man Earthfire’s brows raised, and he said extremely solemnly, “Divine Country.”

At tier one of the Divine level, one could borrow the powers from the heavens and earth to interfere with the world with their martial wills. However, at tier two of the Divine level, they would be able to move at light speed, completely suppressing over a tier one Divine level expert.

At tier three of the Divine level, one would be able to create clones from their wills, possessing a survival ability that was even stronger than light speed movements. After gaining possession of Sudden Inspiration at tier four of the Divine level, the individual would be able to establish their own standing, and it would be hard for them to be killed. They could even use their Sudden Inspiration to locate their opponents’ clones and chase them.

Tier five Divine level experts could create their own Divine Country. With the increase in their battle prowess, as long as they were within a Divine Country that was broken away from the world’s timeline, they would be able to avoid Sudden Inspiration sense. This would allow them to live carefreely in the world, forever keeping away an extra life.

Although Old Man Earthfire did not believe that Lan Yue’s Divine Country could stand independent from the world’s timeline, a Divine Country was still a Divine Country after all. Right now, he was only at tier four of the Divine level.

Therefore, he landed compliantly and cupped his hands together before Lan Yue. Then, with a flash, he darted into the crowd and disappeared. It was as if he felt ashamed, so he did not even say a single word.

Lan Yue nodded and turned to leave. Her cold and arrogant appearance caused a series of sighs to ring out amongst the crowd.

With Old Man Earthfire showing compliance, no one else present dared to create trouble. Maria followed the crowd and entered the city. Very soon after, she arrived at the location the Divine Treasures Meeting would be conducted. It was at a huge square.
