...
After planting these heavenly materials and earthly treasures, Ye Xiao scanned through the star beasts that he had just obtained. He extracted new imperial techniques from their star cores to complete the requirements of the Golden Book.
In the end, he found four imperial techniques that could be recorded into the Golden Book divine soul from those star beasts.
There was nothing he could do. Most of the attacks of those star beasts were mainly sword, claw, fist, and saber techniques.
Most of them were repetitive.
The Golden Book only needed three god techniques to synthesize with his soul. He already had several god techniques so there were not many he needed to synthesize.
However, even so, it was still a huge gain.
One of the four imperial techniques was the saber art, Triple Asura Slash! A saber art that increased in size and was very domineering. It was intimidating and bloodthirsty, and it had a more murderous aura than the Overpowering Saber!
As well as the alchemy art, Raging Thunder Pill!
That alchemy art was faster than the Ten Thousand to One, and it was even more violent. However, the requirements for cultivation were also higher. After all, the consumption was very high.
Leg technique, Mountain and River Traversing Emperor!
To Ye Xiao's surprise, that leg technique was different from the two leg techniques he knew previously.
The Valkyrie's Forceful Kick and the Heaven-splitting Strike were both able to cause tremendous destructive damage.
On the other hand, Mountain and River Traversing Emperor was actually a control-type cultivation technique similar to the Star-plucking Hand. It used supreme pressure to intimidate the enemy, making them unable to move.
Ye Xiao felt that it was not very useful. After all, when you were fighting in a group, it was impossible to step on one of them with one foot, and the others would not fight, right?
However, Ye Xiao did not need that move either, because he had already gathered three leg techniques and could once again combine them.
The fourth imperial technique was an array, the imperial array, Ming Luo Imperial Array!
It allowed the entire array to have a certain degree of self-awareness, and it could move according to its own conditions.
It felt amazing.
Under normal circumstances, the array could not move. In other words, if the enemy escaped the array, it could automatically remove the suppression of the array.
Other than that, the array could move. Could it chase after the enemy and make it impossible for the enemy to escape?
Moreover, it also possessed a certain level of consciousness. That was an even more terrifying existence.
An array that possessed its own consciousness was no different from having a clone of itself go out.
That was the fourth array that Ye Xiao possessed. The array from before was the heaven amplification destiny grand array that focused on killing hallucinations, the dutian vast origin grand array that focused on spirit-gathering effects, and the Earth-shattering Celestial Dipper Array that focused on defense and sealing.
However, the synthesis of arrays was different from the synthesis of cultivation techniques.
It required more arrays to fuse, and four was not enough. It seemed like he would have to think of a way to find another imperial array of different attributes in the future before he could synthesize them together.
Even so, he did not waste his efforts tonight.
Not only did he manage to settle the matters at the star beast farm, he also obtained a few extremely good cultivation techniques.
He could even take the opportunity to synthesize a god-level leg technique.
Perfect!
Early the next morning, when Ye Xiao was busy the entire night and came out from the jade seal, he coincidentally bumped into Ning Yuhen and You Wei at the door.
"Morning, Supervisor."
Ye Xiao nodded.
"Morning. I happen to have something I want to talk to you about."
"Please speak, Supervisor."
"The human race has already gathered the few great god races behind them. When the time comes, with you here, it's inconvenient for me to protect you. You'd better return to Silver Fox Valley first."
Ning Yuhen's heart skipped a beat.
"Supervisor, don't. I want to follow by your side."
"Don't act like a child. This matter is troublesome. The god race is about to descend. No one knows what will happen.".
"Go back and inform Silver Fox Valley first. Have the Silver Fox clan hide for a while.
"Also, do me a favor and tell Silver Fox Valley not to reveal my identity. Otherwise, it might cause a lot of trouble for me."
When Ning Yuhen heard that, his eyes turned cold and he immediately said seriously,
"Supervisor, don't worry. With me around, I will definitely not let your identity be revealed."
Ye Xiao nodded and immediately passed some heavenly and earthly treasures to Ning Yuhen.
Those things were some of the extras he had picked out when he planted them last night. Ning Yuhen had come all the way here, so he could not let him go back empty-handed.
"Since you're back this time, I don't have time to accompany you for a stroll or a meal. Take these things and go back to help you cultivate."
Ning Yuhen was just about to decline when Ye Xiao opened his mouth again,
"You don't have to be in a hurry to decline. If your cultivation can improve, what difficulties will I face in the future? Perhaps you can even help me."
After hearing those words, Ning Yuhen, who originally wanted to refute a little, did not open his mouth. Instead, he nodded and agreed,
"Don't worry, Supervisor. If you need me in the future, send someone over to inform me at any time. I will be at Supervisor's service at any time."
Ye Xiao nodded.
"Let's go quickly! The earlier we set off, the earlier we can return to Silver Fox Valley to make arrangements."
"Yes!"
After sending Ning Yuhen off, Ye Xiao returned to the library to continue reading.
...
In the starry sky, a massive aura began to gradually appear.
Countless star beasts could not help but tremble at its presence.
"What a powerful strength! Can you all feel it?"
"It's him who refined the divine blood! It's too terrifying! I can even feel that with his current strength, he can kill me with a single punch."
"The divine blood of tens of billions of humans is indeed extraordinary. His aura can be said to be the strongest in the entire history of the starry sky in the past few hundred years!"
"The current him can no longer be considered to be second on the star ranking, but a true first on the star ranking! Even human Emperor Jing would not be able to defeat him in a one-on-one fight."
"It's stable! It's definitely stable this time. The star beast army has been set up. As long as he defeats that human, all the star beast armies will rush forward and take down the Nine Provinces' human race. Before the various god race forces descend, they will take away the Xuan Yuan descendants. At that time, they will go to see the young master. It will definitely be a great merit."
As he spoke, that figure had already begun to fly towards the ground.
At that moment, the defensive barrier that the human world had built for thousands of years was already in tatters. That aura directly descended, and there was still an intact barrier protecting it in front of him.
However, he did not descend from the gap at the side. Instead, he directly struck the barrier.
Boom!
Following an earth-shattering loud sound, a huge hole exploded on the barrier. Lightning ran amuck within it, and smoke and dust filled the air. That figure, on the other hand, descended towards the ground with a crushing posture.
On the other side, Ye Xiao was reading in the library when Emperor Jing flew over to look for him.
"Ye Xiao, you have the leisure and elegance to read here."
Ye Xiao shrugged.
"What else can I do if I don't read?"
The way he cultivated to become stronger was to constantly read books and extract powerful cultivation techniques from them. Then, he would absorb it into his Golden Book and synthesize them together before advancing again.
"Don't read books in a hurry. I have something to tell you."
"Senior, please say it."
Emperor Jing took a deep breath and said with a slightly solemn expression,
"You know, none of us know what the situation is like when the Xuan Yuan god clan descends this time.
"However, I can confirm one thing. After they arrive, they will definitely send high-level officials to take over the Nine Provinces.
"We, the descendants of the Xuan Yuan god clan, are originally a branch of their clan, so we will inevitably be under their control.
"I have already decided that the Azure Dragon and I will be the leaders, representing the entire Nine Provinces' human race to complete the handover.
"But even so, we have never come into contact with the Xuan Yuan god clan, so we don't know what kind of character they have, whether they are cruel, arrogant, or some other kind of character.
"So, I want to ask you, if, I mean if.
"If the Xuan Yuan god clan is not friendly to the human race, you can take a portion of the Nine Provinces' geniuses and leave this place, leaving behind a bit of bloodline for the Xuan Yuan descendants of our lineage."
Ye Xiao nodded.
"But what should I use to bring it?"
"The jade seal! Isn't the jade seal a spatial storage treasure? The space inside is especially large, enough for you to take away many people."
"..."
"What's wrong? Did something happen to the jade seal?"
"Uh... That's not it. It's just that I raised a few things inside."
"Oh, that's not a problem. It's just raising a few things. The space there is so big, so it won't affect it. Oh right, what kind of things are you raising?"
"It's those divine-level star beasts, divine beasts, and supreme divine beasts that I caught previously."
"...
"Does your mother know that you're so powerful?"
"If she was still alive, she would have known."
Emperor Jing rubbed the space between his brows.
"Only you are so insane! To be able to rear those things. But it doesn't matter. When the time comes, you might not need to bring people to escape. It's just a backup plan.
"If such a thing really happens, bring as many as you can."
Ye Xiao nodded.
"Speaking of which, do we not know anything about the situation of the god race here?"
Emperor Jing shook his head.
"We don't know! It has been thousands of years since our ancestors died. A few thousand years is enough to grind down many things. Even the handwritten notes left behind by our ancestors are nowhere to be found."
"Then have you not contacted the outside world and tried to understand the matters related to the god race?"
Emperor Jing shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"How can it be that easy? The starry sky is really too big. With our current level and methods, we still haven't been able to advance to a very far place.
"Danger lurked everywhere in the starry sky, and it wasn't necessarily safer than here. However...
"..."
"However what?"
Ye Xiao could hear the unusual tone in his voice. There were some changes, and he became a little more solemn.
"However, in history, there was a person who once led a group to break through the star beast's blockade line and enter the starry sky.
"He was once the person who was thought to have the most hope of taking on the ancestor's mission before you.
"However, he said that the ancestor was just a speck of dust in the Xuan Yuan god clan. The ancestor's vision was too small, so he guarded this small world.
"He didn't go to the Emperor Spirit Stele. He only relied on his own closed-door cultivation to comprehend the god techniques in the Xuan Yuan divine blood!
He is the fastest, strongest, most mysterious, and most arrogant person in the history of the Nine Provinces."
"Who?"
"Ancestral Dragon!"
