Chapter 886: Chapter 468: When Chi Yuyxue Envelops the Nine Kingdoms and Royal Blood Is Exhausted, I Shall Become the Emperor

[Twenty-seven Princes embarked on a journey of millions of miles, all heading to the Northern Snowfield Lion Ridge]

[With this journey, no more news was heard]

[Twenty-seven Holy Lands were left leaderless, plunging into chaos]

[Each of the Nine Kingdoms lost three Princes, causing turmoil in the court]

[The remaining people of the Holy Lands were in a state of panic and organized an investigation team to go to Lion Ridge, only to find the snowfield stained red with royal blood, red snow fluttering like drifts, red ice vivid as crystal, and the bodies of the twenty-seven Princes scattered throughout Lion Ridge]

Hoo...

A cold wind blew again.

Bai Mo instinctively gathered his disciples into his arms and rubbed their chubby bellies, though he was inwardly shocked.

"Marquis... she didn’t make this up, did she?

"The King Slaughter Faction wiped out twenty-seven Princes?"

His few fox disciples stood with their triangular ears perked.

"Ying?"

"Ao?"

King Slaughter Faction?

What do they do?

So domineering?

Similar in style to Fox Mountain?

Bai Mo picked up the next stone slab and continued to read.

[The message spread, shocking the Nine Kingdoms]

[All the Princes of the Holy Lands took action, heading to the Celestial Palaces of all countries, seeking an audience with the nine Emperors]

[This was a plea for help as well as an inquiry!]

[Who in this world possesses the strongest Immortal Technique? Who could silently and unnoticedly annihilate twenty-seven Princes?]

[None other than the Celestial Palace, none other than the Emperors!]

[In the past, when I was Sequence Five, I was at the Law Enforcement Hall of the Dan Country Celestial Palace and witnessed that day when fierce winds howled across the Celestial Palace, dark clouds pressing down, Princes gathering, bowing before the Palace, each face like bronzed iron, dark and hard]

[Only then did I understand, the Emperors and the Princes never truly got along]

[Historically, every nation, every Emperor, came from humble beginnings, rose from obscurity, first becoming false kings before proving the way of the Emperor]

[Relying on royal blood, Sequence Two is the limit of one’s life]

[Only with Immortal Techniques can one become an Emperor]

Ah?

There is such a saying?

Bai Mo frowned, feeling the reality and complexity of the Ancient Immortal Dynasty.

The Ancient Immortal Dynasty he saw in the ruins was only a fragment of that mysterious civilization.

[In the nation, Princes and an Emperor are like stars circling the moon, reflecting and watching each other, but also suspecting and balancing each other]

[Everyone believed, perhaps this so-called King Slaughter Faction was truly a charade orchestrated by the Emperors]

[I too believed it]

[Back when the Emperor was Sequence Six, condensing the Pot, he was nearly assassinated by the Holy Lands, hiding the Pot, living anonymously for many years to avoid disaster]

[If I were the Emperor, I would also want to settle the scores after becoming an Emperor!]

[After waiting so long for the crown, why should I be nice to them now?]

[But this time, we seem to have all guessed wrong]

[The nine Emperors ascended to the clouds of the Nine Kingdoms, all taking action, displaying supreme Immortal Techniques, unleashing wild winds, azure clouds like the sea, thunder rolling and rivers surging backward, sun and moon reversing, stars shifting]

[The Emperors’ eyes seemed to see through causality, through reincarnation, through time]

[It was on that day that I realized nothing that happens in this world could be hidden from the Emperors]

[Many matters are not ignored by them due to ignorance, but rather because they are indifferent, unconcerned]

[On that day, the nine Emperors saw many things and made what they saw public, to all the Nine Kingdoms]

[The Ming Ye Emperor of the Immortal Martial Realm told the world that the Prince Bloodline inherently has significant flaws, like castles in the air, unstable at its foundation]

[The Kong Man Emperor of the Talisman Realm told the world that those King Slaughter Talismans actually deviate from the existing Talisman Dao system]

[The Flowing Fire Emperor of the Alchemy Realm told the world that those King Slaughter Elixirs were concocted by chance, but their appearance was inevitable]

[The Thousand Machines Emperor of the Immortal Artifact Realm told the world that for thousands of years, royal blood had not changed, and much of the causality and information regarding royal blood had already been exposed]

[The Hong Shuang Emperor of the Sword Immortal Realm told the world that the royal blood inheritance has not evolved over millennia, yet the Holy Lands occupy vast resources and are already hindering the development of the Immortal Dao]

Upon reading this, Bai Mo clicked his tongue in wonder.

The nine Emperors truly had no qualms about speaking frankly, not sparing the Princes any face at all!

The later lines were already blurred, indistinct.

But the last two lines were still clear.

[The Crying Emperor of the Divination Realm tells the world that these king-slaying immortal techniques were all calculated using the divination technique!]

Huh?

Bai Mo read the sentence again.

"Did I... did I misunderstand?"

Can divination techniques achieve such a degree?

If you want a pill formula targeted at the Dragon Hook King’s Blood, you don’t need research, you don’t need experiments, just calculate and divine the formula out?

"It shouldn’t be possible to divine a pill formula directly to such an extent.

"But while exploring king-slaying immortal techniques, perhaps it can determine key development directions? Key development nodes?"

So, those king-slaying immortal techniques, those immortal artifacts, those talismans, those pill formulas Bai Mo found strange...

"The pill formulas in the Dry Well Treasure Vault, could they have involved divination in the research process? Divined and calculated?"

Bai Mo furrowed his brows.

This divination path has always felt eerie to him, yet he never feared it.

He once easily killed two divination masters from the Dark World.

Spring Mountain’s Dong Yunhui, a Sequence Seven Divination Master, wasn’t particularly powerful either.

Until today, after reading this document, he finally felt the terror of divination masters.

"Maybe... it’s not the divination path that’s strong, but the divination master behind the King Slaughter Faction?"

He looked at the final line.

[The Meng Die Emperor of the Immortal Array Realm tells the world the truth of the King Slaughter Faction lies within the twenty-seven prince corpses on Lion Ridge. By examining the corpses again, the final answer can be found]

[The twenty-seven prince corpses have been reclaimed by their respective Holy Lands, either buried or lying in the hall]

[Amidst stormy weather, under the scrutiny of thousands watching, and the tearful pleas of Holy Land heirs... princes form an investigation team, journey to the twenty-seven Holy Lands, exhume, open coffins, and reexamine these dead princes]

[Alas! Twenty-seven princes died to eliminate the King Slaughter Faction and protect all princes]

[Yet now, their Holy Lands without princes have no choice but allowing the investigation team to storm the gates, other princes to exhume and inspect]

[Hmph, what irony]

[The investigation team splits into nine groups, one per kingdom, inspecting one corpse per day]

[Prince Yuncao, Prince Guiyu, Prince Xianjue, Prince Shefu... each prince is examined one by one]

[They all died suddenly, victims of the defects from the triggered Prince Bloodline]

[Each corpse fully examined, the dead princes insulted, the living princes terrified]

[On the third day, the team arrives at the Divination Realm, led by Prince Ling Xue to Shu Xue Holy Land]

[Prince Ling Xue’s body is exhumed from the earth]

[His wife and descendants are tearful, unable to speak from grief]

[The coffin of Prince Ling Xue is opened, his long hair draping over shoulders, his garments whiter than snow, his visage like that of a youth]

[But the investigation team of princes is enraged]

[Because among the twenty-seven prince corpses, the corpse of Prince Ling Xue who once led the investigation of the King Slaughter Faction and was supposed to die at Northern Snowfield Lion Ridge...]

[His corpse is fake!]

Huh?

Bai Mo furrowed his brows.

Fake?

"Could it be...?

"The organizer of the King Slaughter Faction is Prince Ling Xue?

"The one divining king-slaying immortal techniques, medicine, artifacts is also Prince Ling Xue?

"The leader of the twenty-seven prince investigation team is also Prince Ling Xue?

"It’s Prince Ling Xue who killed the other twenty-six princes at Snowfield Lion Ridge?

"It’s Prince Ling Xue who faked death, leaving behind this corpse?"

[This is a fake corpse crafted by immortal techniques, wrapped in snake hide, packed with Shi Grass, drenched in Prince Ling Xue’s blood]

[Peel away the snake hide to see on its inner side, there are bloody letters as a message to the world’s princes]

[Ling Xue was born in the Holy Land, grew up in the Holy Land, relying on the True King Bloodline, skipped ascension ceremonies and awakened as the knowledge container, living a smooth life, ascended the throne at six hundred years old, leading the Holy Land]

[Yet all my life, diligently working, striving hard, waking at dawn, returning by moonlight, enduring winter’s cold, summer’s heat, vomiting blood from exhaustion, pondering deeply, cultivating Counting Snow Immortal Technique]

[The world knows me as possessing True King Bloodline, but not as also being a Great Immortal Mage]

[The world knows I enjoy countless offerings and endless prestige, but not that I’ve calculated the years, the world, counted countless elites and immortals of ambition outside the Holy Land]

[Now Ling Xue wishes to forsake his bloodline and the foundation of the Holy Land, carrying only his immortal techniques, to return to the world]

[Now Ling Xue promises a grand ambition to use Counting Snow Immortal Technique to slay all True Kings, cleanse prince bloodlines, restore the order of the Immortal Dao]

[When mountains cry together, rivers turn red, and Chi Yuyxue covers the Nine Kingdoms, with seven thousand two hundred Holy Lands fallen, and Royal Blood Stream exhausted, then I shall become Emperor]
