Chapter 208: Chapter 186: The Proud Bai Yuan_1
In the Heavenly Realm,
the Immortal War had drawn to a close.
Before departing, the Immortal King Ming Luo eradicated all fluctuations within the Void Sea Domain.
Within the Heavenly Realm, the World Tree reemerged, and the blood of the eighteen Daluo Golden Immortals who had died was absorbed by the entire Heavenly Realm, making the Immortal Spiritual Qi even more dense.
Many of the impacts caused by that war also dissipated.
The common people, who had their memories severed, forgot everything and soon resumed their normal lives.
The only things that caused some ripples were two incidents.
The first was that the terrifying Yin Ghosts of the Southwest Domain and the Dongbei Domain had been subdued, to the cheers of all beings within those domains.
The second was that the battles of the twenty-five Daluo Golden Immortal-level powerhouses became a favorite topic of discussion among the people, with various speculations spreading.
“Ever since the Convergence of Myriad Realms, our connection with the Immortal Domain had been completely severed, and now, we can finally get in touch with the Elder Ancestor again!”
In Diming State, within the Chen Imperial Dynasty, an Emperor spoke excitedly:
“Contact the Elder Sovereign immediately, inform him of everything that has occurred here. Such a major event must be reported!”
The Elder Sovereign of their Chen Imperial Dynasty had disappeared on his way to attack the Heavenly Realm, but later they could not contact the Immortal Domain, and so the matter had been delayed until now!
“A new great world integration is complete, and the rank of this realm has almost surpassed all other Earth Character Realms. We must report to the Immortal Domain immediately!”
An elder Sect Master from Dihuang State also spoke up:
“Contact the Immortal Domain, inform them of everything that has happened here!”
In Dibing State, the Ice Snow Empress Bing Yanran also spoke immediately:
Since Senluo Immortal Monarch began promoting the convergence of Myriad Realms, the whole of the Myriad Realms had been completely sealed off.
Now, with the departure of the Immortal King, this place could finally reestablish contact with the Immortal Domain.
Thus, countless ancient forces and Sect Gates began sending messages to ancestors and other figures in the Immortal Domain!
At this moment,
in the Diyuan State of the Heavenly Realm!
Within a mountain range,
fierce tiger roars could be faintly heard.
These roars shook the heavens, making this a place where no one dared to approach on ordinary days.
This was the ancestral land of the Diyuan State White Tiger Lineage, the Beast Emperor Mountain Range.
Diyuan State was originally part of the Earth Yuan Realm and was absorbed by the Heavenly Realm as one of its states during the “Hundred Worlds Integration.”
At that time, the Diyuan State formed an alliance prepared to attack Xuan Tianzhou, with the Tiger Emperor Bai Zhentian of the White Tiger Clan as one of the three Golden Immortals of the alliance!
Inside a grand White Tiger Hall, a terrifying White Tiger Statue was enshrined!
The entire statue, carved out of white jade, looked majestic and extraordinarily divine!
An elderly man with white hair sat respectfully before the statue.
He was the “Trustworthy Person.”
This White Tiger Statue allowed the White Tiger Clan of Diyuan State to contact the Main Ancestral Hall!
Of course, normally when they took the initiative to contact, there would be no response from the other side unless there were commands from the Main Ancestral Hall to be handed down.
“Ao hou——”
Just today,
the White Tiger Statue suddenly let out a faint tiger’s roar!
In an instant, the Trustworthy Person stood up, his eyes revealing a look of surprise!
“The communication channel to the Immortal Domain has been opened!”
He exclaimed, and then additionally sent out three loud tiger roars that shook the entire mountain range!
Before long, all powerhouses from the Diyuan State White Tiger Lineage assembled!
Leading them was a man who was none other than one of the former leaders of the Earth Element Alliance, the Tiger Emperor Bai Zhentian!
And behind him, a young man with a proud demeanor and a formidable presence strode forward, his hands clasped behind him.
He exuded a wild nature and now, an air of invincibility that as if he alone was peerless between heaven and earth.
In the hall,
“Communicate with the Immortal Domain!”
Bai Zhentian commanded.
The Trustworthy Person immediately lit the tribute incense.
At that moment, the White Tiger Statue suddenly emitted a beam of light from its mouth.
The light swiftly formed a screen before them.
In the screen, a middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back, looking down from above, and said:
“By command, it is announced to the Earth Yuan Realm branches that the True Monarch’s Blessing Ceremony will be held in the ‘Xu Geng Realm’ in three days’ time!”
Upon hearing this, the Diyuan State White Tiger Lineage was overjoyed!
The True Monarch’s Blessing Ceremony!
This was a grand event, whereby all the White Tiger Clans from every world would send their most elite talents to participate.
At that time, True Monarch-level figures of the White Tiger Clan would bestow blessings, and if one were fortunate enough to catch their favor, soaring to the skies would not be far off!
“I beseech the Superior Immortal!”
At this moment, Bai Zhentian stepped forward and said:
“I have two matters to report!”
“Several days ago, a million Lower Realms converged. Now, the Earth Yuan Realm is no longer a realm unto itself, but has become one of the states of the new ‘Heavenly Realm’!”
Upon hearing this, the figure in the screen was also taken aback.
“What? A convergence of a million Lower Realms?!”
“Why wasn’t this major event reported earlier?!”
The figure on the other side was furious.
“I beseech the Superior Immortal, previously this realm was constrained by some mysterious force, and we were unable to communicate with the Immortal Domain!”
Bai Zhentian explained in haste.
The emissary on the other side seemed somewhat agitated and immediately said:
“And the second matter?”
Bai Zhentian continued:
“Please convey to Elder Bai Qi that my son Bai Yuan has reached the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm!”
“Moreover, his bloodline kept enhancing, and a trace of White Tiger True Blood has emerged!”
In his words, there was a thick sense of pride!
——His son, Bai Yuan, was fortunate enough to join Lu Rang and others to enter the Immortal Dao Palace in Huangtian State upon its emergence and obtained a legacy!
Therefore, during this period, his son had made rapid progress.
His cultivation level had even surpassed his own.
Of course, he dared not disclose the inheritance from the Immortal Dao Palace, for fear of covetous glances within his clan!
But such a major breakthrough in his bloodline must be reported. After reporting it, with True Monarch’s blessings at the conferment ceremony, he would receive preferential treatment!
Upon hearing this, the envoy on the other side was even more astounded and said:
“He has broken through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm and possesses a trace of White Tiger True Blood?!”
“Bai Zhentian, do you think that, separated by a domain barrier, I can’t kill you?”
The envoy exclaimed angrily.
He simply didn’t believe it.
Because even within the Immortal Domain, reaching the Taiyi Golden Immortal at such an age was considered good talent, and the emergence of the White Tiger True Blood… would be regarded as a prodigy in the Main Ancestral Hall!
“Reporting to the Superior Immortal, Zhentian would never dare to deceive!”
Bai Zhentian’s face changed immediately, and he called out, “Yuan’er!”
At once, Bai Yuan who was behind him stepped forward.
He was haughtily composed, and with a casual gesture of his hand, a drop of essence blood appeared!
“Superior Immortal, whether Zhentian is lying or not, you can verify for yourself!”
Bai Zhentian respectfully submitted the drop of fresh blood into the light screen!
“What? It truly contains a trace of White Tiger True Blood?”
The envoy on the other side was immediately astonished.
“Wait!”
He disappeared from before the light screen.
Soon after, he reappeared.
“Elder Bai Qi is already aware of this matter. He instructed me to tell you, make haste in arranging your son’s union with Bai Xiaoqing of the White Tiger Lineage from Xuantian Realm, as it can make his White Tiger True Blood even richer!”
“When the conferment ceremony begins, Elder Bai will personally request an opportunity for your son!”
“Furthermore, Elder Bai Qi said, if your son can enter the Immortal Domain in the future, he will take him as his disciple.”
“To protect your son’s growth, Elder Bai Qi has bestowed a puppet body. This body has been enshrined before the White Tiger True Monarch for over a thousand years and possesses a wisp of immortal aura. It must not be used unless it’s absolutely necessary!”
Upon hearing this, everyone in the grand hall was ecstatic!
Even Elder Bai Qi valued him so greatly!
He had already predestined Bai Yuan as a future disciple.
And he even bestowed a puppet body!
“Many thanks, Superior Immortal, many thanks!”
Bai Zhentian was profoundly grateful!
The light screen then disappeared, and a white jade pendant was left in its place.
“Yuan’er, did you hear that? Elder Bai Qi values you deeply this time!”
Filled with excitement, Bai Zhentian said, “Our Diyuan State Lineage is very likely to be qualified for entering the Immortal Domain because of you!”
“Enter the Immortal Domain?”
Yet Bai Yuan just sneered and said, “Father, I, Bai Yuan, am destined to become an Immortal!”
His confidence was boundless!
Now, he looked down upon the entire younger generation of the Heavenly Realm.
“However, as Elder Bai Qi said, your true blood still needs to be strengthened. I should also start arranging a marriage for you… Now that the Convergence of Myriad Realms has taken place, both the Xuantian Realm and our Earth Yuan Realm have become two states within the Heavenly Realm, which is quite convenient!”
He pondered as he spoke.
“Marriage?”
But Bai Yuan coldly retorted, “Father, surely you don’t really think that Bai Xiaoqing is still worthy of me?”
“My wife can only be the White Tiger Saintess from the Immortal Domain!”
“Bai Xiaoqing? She was nothing more than a lowly girl from a minor White Tiger branch in the Mysterious Character Realm, and she dared to become my Dao companion?”
He showed extreme disdain.
“But, you two are betrothed, and moreover, Elder Bai Qi also said, union with her can strengthen your White Tiger True Blood…”
Bai Zhentian hesitated.
“Betrothal? From today onwards, it’s annulled!”
“As for Bai Xiaoqing? Being with me, graced by my presence, is her honor!”
“She’s nothing but a tool for me, Bai Yuan, to enhance my bloodline, like a piece of grass by the roadside to be tossed away after use. What is there to fear?”
He looked at Bai Zhentian indifferently and said:
“Father Emperor, their family is not as strong as ours, right?”
“Currently, I alone can annihilate their whole clan!”
Bai Zhentian was shocked to hear his son’s thoughts…
He intended not only to break the marriage engagement…
But also to dominate Bai Xiaoqing of Xuan Tianzhou!
And to discard her after using her!
He inhaled sharply… What a brilliant idea indeed!!
After all, who was his son? A future Immortal Monarch, an Immortal!
He might enter the Immortal Domain and establish his own Immortal City!
Bai Xiaoqing?
As lowly as “Three Lives Soil”!
“You’re right! That Bai Xiaoqing doesn’t deserve you at all. Our lineage could claim her anytime, her father Bai Xiaofeng wouldn’t dare refuse!”
“Let’s go to Xuan Tianzhou and demand the girl!”
He declared on the spot!
