Chapter 1011: Shaking the Realm

Chapter 1011: Shaking the RealmHe who was once the ninth prince, whom no one looked favorably on—he had accomplished an overwhelming feat that none other had done.

With his rule, the scaleman world would only grow stronger.

The crown prince didn't think that he would have been able to do the same. He hadn't been able to defend against the initial tide of black spirits, and he was even certain that his father, the past emperor, would likewise have failed.

However, his ninth brother had done so. The relationship he had formed with Zhang Lie before his ascension to the throne had, in some sense, guaranteed his success now.

After the black spirits, the former crown prince was completely convinced by the new king's ability as a ruler. For the remainder of his life, he had decided to become the garrison commander, to serve and guard the kingdom that his brother had given so much to build.

The members of the three great clans of the scaleman world, looking at their emperor shrouded in light, gazed at him in a complicated fashion.

No one had expected the former ninth prince to accomplish such an incredible deed.

At this point, few even remembered that he had been the weakest among all the princes, the most powerless, the prince that everyone had ignored.

The three great clans all thought that the former ninth prince was the least likely candidate to become king, that he would most likely have perished in the struggle for succession, that he was so useless he wasn't even a pawn to be taken advantage of.

His status was the only valuable thing about him—if he were to live, he would be able to claim a patch of land from the new emperor, where he could happily live out an ordinary, unassuming life.

All those in power in the capital at the time knew that the ninth prince was a piece of trash, an invisible man, whom everyone could bully. To think that he had ended up emperor, venerated by those around him, on the cusp of evolving the scaleman world to a superior one...!

Under his rule, the scaleman world was reaching the apex of the three thousand worlds of the third realm, a vaunted height that would bring the inhabitants of the world unlimited rewards.

The former ninth prince's road to emperor had been an arduous one, almost as though it belonged to a novel. The orphaned youth, now ruler over millions...

Before the former ninth prince's ascent to strength, only one man stood by his side.

This man, whom the kings and leaders of countless world now venerated as their ruler, had once been nothing more than a weakling, who would have fallen to his death with a single wrong step.

He had danced between life and death quite a few times—but as the princes who were strong competitors to the throne fell one by one, the second prince, protected by the Jian clan; the third prince, who killed himself; the fourth prince...

Of the nine princes, the only two remaining were the crown and ninth princes. The ninth prince, who had successfully traversed countless obstacles in his way, finally took the throne.

Many didn't understand why the ninth prince had ascended over the crown prince, but they had all bowed down and acknowledged the former ninth prince's rule upon the coming of the black tide.

The ninth prince, not the crown prince, had been the one to protect the world in its time of need. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Against the onslaught, all other kings and leaders had fallen—all save the former ninth prince. For his success, he was venerated and given fealty by the other kings, bringing the scaleman world to an unprecedented level of success.

At the altar in the center of the capital, the egg enclosed by the rainbow pillar of light began to crack. As the crack propagated, the king of the scaleman world emerged from his shell, his body still bathed in rainbow light.

As natural law danced around him, as the world's energy condensed, a rainbow-colored corona appeared behind the king. He looked down on all who gathered around him, as though he stood at the peak of the world.

The aliens within and without the capital felt a strong pressure on their backs, the likes of which they had never felt before. They knelt and prostrated themselves, and someone called out, "We congratulate the king of the realm on his successful ascent. May his light bless a thousand worlds, may his might last forevermore!"

All others echoed the chant. "We congratulate the king of the realm on his successful ascent. May his light bless a thousand worlds, may his might last forevermore!"

"We congratulate the king of the realm on his successful ascent. May his light bless a thousand worlds, may his might last forevermore!"

"We congratulate the king of the realm on his successful ascent. May his light bless a thousand worlds, may his might last forevermore!"

The waves of sound echoed through the capital, wave after wave, and spread even beyond that.

"We congratulate the king of the realm on his successful ascent. May his light bless a thousand worlds, may his might last forevermore!"

"We congratulate the king of the realm on his successful ascent. May his light bless a thousand worlds, may his might last forevermore!"

"We congratulate the king of the realm on his successful ascent. May his light bless a thousand worlds, may his might last forevermore!"

The voices of the citizens echoed throughout the world.

Bolstered by the world's energy, the king's strength increased dramatically. He exuded an aura the likes of which couldn't be replicated.

Natural law surrounded him, as blinding as the sun, scorching those who dared to look directly at him.

After the world's evolution, the scaleman king had gained a measure of divinity, one that each superior king possessed, and which couldn't be replicated even by others who were as strong as superior kings.

Those aliens who looked directly at the solar king would find their eyes scorched; those who looked directly at the frost queen would have even their blood and heart freeze; those who looked directly at the king of black fog would themselves be surrounded by fog, and even swallowed up.

Those who looked at the king of evil would melt; those who looked at the decaying king would likewise melt; those who looked at the king of keys would go crazy; those who looked at the king of chaos would become night growlers; those who looked at Li Zongming would feel a stabbing pain in their eyes.

Even the clones of the king of chaos carried traces of that divinity. Those who looked at Nightdemon would feel a sense of fear.

Of course, not everyone would be subject to these consequences. A certain level of strength conferred immunity or drastic weakening of these effects. For instance, someone like Zhang Lie wouldn't be affected.

The ninth prince's voice echoed through the evolved world. "The merger of the worlds is complete. From today onwards, the scaleman world is a superior world!"

Everyone cheered, and their cheers echoed through the air.

Just as the inhabitants of both worlds cheered in joy, the superior worlds were roused to action.

In the world of blazing sun, a humanoid figure leaned against a golden mulberry tree. Beneath its feet was scorching earth and soil, and a hundred suns revolved around the mulberry tree's branches. Ten suns hung in the sky.

"Another superior world—and two of them simultaneously, at that!"

As the solar king felt the disturbance in the world's energy in the third realm, solar flares formed all over his body, and the ten suns behind him glowed with piercing light.

When the solar king sensed the direction from which the two superior worlds came, he gritted his teeth. "Damn it, why are they both within the Zongming world's jurisdiction? Just what's going on over there for superior worlds to be popping up one after the other? The Zongming world's bad enough—but two more, now? Why don't I ever get this lucky?"
