Chapter 249: Chapter 240: Great Emperor Candidate List!

"After tens of thousands of years, my Piaomiao Palace has finally produced a Saint Heir!"

The voice of Piaomiao Saint Venerable echoed, with a great laughter shaking the heavens and the earth, as if too excited to contain his own aura, the majestic pressure of a Saint Venerable was uncontrollably released.

Feeling that terrifying presence descend, everyone’s faces instantly paled, their gazes filled with shock. They had thought the old man was just an ordinary Elder of Piaomiao Palace, at best possessing the cultivation of the Creation Realm.

But now it seemed that even experts of the Creation Realm were as weak as ants before this Elder!

This was a grand existence, a mighty figure of this era!

The Heavenly Ladder gradually faded and eventually vanished. Mo Wangchen floated down from the sky, slowly arriving in front of Yaoyao and the Piaomiao Saint Venerable.

"Good, good, good!"

Piaomiao Saint Venerable said ’good’ three times in a row, his gaze fiercely passionate as he looked at Mo Wangchen, "From now on, you are the Saint Heir of my Piaomiao Palace!"

"Saint Heir!"

"After tens of thousands of years, a Saint Heir of Piaomiao Palace has appeared once more in the world, and this person was able to draw the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow. He must possess the potential to become an Emperor. It seems that soon, the list of candidates for Great Emperor will have another name added!"

Around them, everyone’s hearts trembled, their gazes filled with envy as they looked at Mo Wangchen.

"Follow me back to the Piaomiao Palace!"

Piaomiao Saint Venerable laughed heartily, and with a sweep of his sleeves, he disappeared on the spot with Mo Wangchen and Yaoyao.

The crowd looked at each other, eventually all letting out a sigh and left helplessly.

...

Ten days later, the emergence of the Piaomiao Saint sent ripples throughout the Beiming Land!

"It’s been ten thousand years since someone from Piaomiao Palace has emerged, and it has been only six thousand years since the last emergence. Unexpectedly, it has come four thousand years early this time, and a Saint Heir has been chosen!"

"It is said that during the day of the trials, the Piaomiao Palace Saint Heir ascended the nine layers of the Heavenly Ladder as if entering a realm devoid of others, and drew the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow inherited from ancient times to full moon, invoking Heavenly Might!"

"Records state that throughout the eons, only three individuals have ever climbed the ninth step of the Piaomiao Palace’s nine-layered Heavenly Ladder. Each one of them were the strongest of their era. In a certain sense, those who can ascend the Heavenly Ladder are deemed to possess the qualifications to become a Great Emperor!"

"By the way, who is the one chosen as the Saint Heir?"

"His name is unknown; it is only known that he is a youth in white clothes, and his cultivation is not high..."

Within these ten days, the news of Mo Wangchen becoming the Saint Heir of Piaomiao Palace swept across the entire Beiming Land, causing a stir in all directions. Although Piaomiao Palace seemed to have fallen into decline, it is still a Sect with an Ancient Inheritance from a Hidden Sect, so the person who became their Saint Heir was inevitably not someone simple.

The only regret was that the people did not know the name of Mo Wangchen.

"Extra, extra!"

"There are two new names on the list of Great Emperor candidates!"

After several more days, another astonishing piece of news broke out. The Great Emperor candidate list, originally featuring only four names, suddenly had two more.

Looking through the long history of Beiming, in each grand era, the list of candidates typically featured only two or three individuals, but in this era, various forces and peerless geniuses were emerging one after another, resulting in a Great Emperor list with six names!

One could imagine that this was truly a grand era. Such an occasion, where many possessed the qualifications to become Great Emperors within the same epoch, had never been seen throughout the ages!

"The Piaomiao Saint Heir ascended the nine-layered Heavenly Ladder, the Divine Bow drew to full moon, and became one of the candidates on the Great Emperor list!"

"Not long ago, the Ancient Kunpeng emerged and was slain by the Yaochi Saint Venerable. It is rumored that the Yaochi Saint Venerable obtained a drop of Kunpeng Essence Blood. Moreover, since the disappearance of the Yaochi Immortal Palace’s Saintess a hundred thousand years ago, there had been no more Saintesses until a few days ago, when news came out that the Yaochi Immortal Palace’s Saintess had been chosen, for the first time in a hundred thousand years!"

"What? The Yaochi Immortal Palace also has a Saintess emerging?!"

"Rumors claim that this generation’s Yaochi Saintess possesses the Taiyin Body, the same physique as the Saintess of a hundred thousand years ago, and the Yaochi Saint Venerable intends to use that drop of Kunpeng Essence Blood on the Saintess!"

"After the Piaomiao Palace Saint, the sixth prodigy to ascend the Great Emperor candidate list is this generation’s Yaochi Saintess!"

For a time, Beiming Land was shaken, and a succession of astonishing news came one after the other.

...

Meanwhile, at this moment, inside the Piaomiao Palace, Mo Wangchen sat alone, cross-legged, atop a mountain peak.

The entire mountain gate of the Piaomiao Palace constituted its own realm, erected upon a solitary peak, surrounded by an unending range of mountains teeming with countless Spiritual Beasts soaring between them while the peak itself supported only a few simple structures, which, despite the passage of years, still stood firm and upright.

Surrounding the mountain ranges lay a vast lake, with the lone peak cradled within, transforming it into an island!

"Huff!"

Mo Wangchen slowly exhaled, his gaze traveling down the mountainside, watching the Bright Sun sprinkle down upon the lake, creating patches of dragon scales.

Now, his body had fully absorbed the medicinal power of the Holy Fruit, his Cultivation reaching the very peak of the nine layers of the Returning Ruins Realm, just one step shy of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

"Stop! Stop it now!"

While sitting in solitude, a scream suddenly came from behind. Mo Wangchen didn’t need to look back to know that Yaoyao and the Piaomiao Saint Venerable had likely arrived.

A Divine Rainbow flashed by, descending behind Mo Wangchen, as the form of the Piaomiao Saint Venerable manifested, with Yaoyao at this moment, sprawled on his back, her hands wrapped around his neck, tugging at the Piaomiao Saint Venerable’s white beard.

"Yaoyao, you’re about to pluck out all my beard, let go quickly."

The Piaomiao Saint Venerable grimaced. He, a formidable Saint Venerable, had been tormented by such a little girl for over ten days, his brows nearly plucked bare, and now Yaoyao had set her sights on his beard.

"Who made you not let me go find big brother? I’m going to pluck out all of your beard!" Yaoyao’s little face was flushed red, trying hard to make her expression appear angry, but the more she did so, the cuter she looked.

"Your big brother needs to cultivate, you coming would only disturb him," said the Piaomiao Saint Venerable.

"I don’t care!" Yaoyao declared, about to pluck out a handful of the beard.

"Yaoyao, if you do that, you won’t be a good child," Mo Wangchen stood up, quickly intervening with a smile.

"Hmph! I’ll let you off just for today!" Yaoyao huffed, then hopped down from the Piaomiao Saint Venerable’s back and ran towards Mo Wangchen, her little face filled with excitement.

Mo Wangchen lifted her up in one motion, as Yaoyao was really clingy towards him.

"How about it? Have you thought about what kind of Primordial Spirit you want to inscribe?" The Piaomiao Saint Venerable smoothed his beard and walked over, asking Mo Wangchen.

Mo Wangchen shook his head, "Inscribing the Primordial Spirit affects my future achievements, it cannot be taken lightly. I have thought much these past days, yet I am unable to decide."

Currently, he stood at the peak of the nine layers of the Returning Ruins Realm and was on the verge of entering the Primordial Spirit Realm, where experts of this realm will condense their own Primordial Spirit Dao Embryo within the Spirit Sea, each differing from the next.

As far as Mo Wangchen was aware, Qin Yue’s Primordial Spirit Dao Embryo was a Divine Phoenix Image, a gift of a drop of Essence Blood she received upon obtaining the recognition of the Nine Heavens Phoenix.

Wu Lingfeng, known as Divine Body, had a Primordial Spirit Dao Embryo rumored to be a cauldron, the cauldron being the sovereign of all artifacts, subduing a hundred weapons!

And the Little Peng King Zhou Tong, inheritor of Ancient Kunpeng Essence Blood lineage, his Primordial Spirit Dao Embryo was undeniably a Kunpeng Image.

"Since you have yet to decide, let’s set this matter aside for now. There’s plenty of time after all. I came today because there’s something I need you for," continued the Piaomiao Saint Venerable.

Mo Wangchen paused, silent, waiting for the other to continue.

"The Yaochi Immortal Palace has a new Saintess with the Taiyin Body; she has been bestowed the title by the Yaochi Saint Venerable, who calls for a gathering of forces from all directions. As one of the Hidden Sects, our Piaomiao Palace naturally cannot refuse. Now that you are the Piaomiao Palace Saint, it is, of course, up to you to attend..."
