Chapter 1442 - 1397: The Will of the Human Realm Suppressing Kings!

Chapter 1442: Chapter 1397: The Will of the Human Realm Suppressing Kings!

From the endless depths of the Sky Vault’s zenith, an ancient will seemed to traverse the ancient time-space and descend, lacking the elegant and distinguished aura of the Purple Qi, but it was all the more grand and vast.

The entire heaven and earth seemed to have fallen into an inexplicable dimension, with intangible fluctuations piercing directly through heaven and earth.

"Heavenly Flowers fall, the Earth brings forth Golden Lotuses!"

Suddenly, Zi Yun King bellowed again. Only then did everyone realize that, under the influence of the phantom fluctuations between heaven and earth, illusory Heavenly Flowers were dancing, and at Xiao Chen’s feet, Golden Lotuses kept emerging.

This is a phenomenon unique to the resonance of Heaven and Earth’s Ten Thousand Paths!

Xiao Chen, by consolidating the Saint Child potential, actually triggered the resonance of the Heaven and Earth’s Ten Thousand Paths, spreading across tens of thousands of miles. Everyone under the domain of Gu Yuan Tribe saw illusory Heavenly Flowers dancing at the zenith of the sky vault!

The grand power of the Human Race was simply unfathomable, causing such a phenomenon to manifest over tens of thousands of miles around!

The illusory Serpent-Dragon of the abyss, originally suspended behind Xiao Chen, started to take on a faint shape, extending a Dragon Claw from underneath its belly, with its illusory Dragon Whiskers crystalline. The only pity was that no Dragon Horn had emerged, and though it appeared extremely domineering, it lacked a sense of unrivaled aura.

Roar!

A dragon’s roar that shook heaven and earth exploded forth, accompanied by a terrifying majesty, like Heavenly Thunder bursting, and like a deity in fury. Xiao Chen was instantly encompassed by this fearsome aura.

The illusory Serpent-Dragon performed a dance in the air, coiled above Xiao Chen’s head, its gaze dominating all between heaven and earth. Even in that moment, Xiao Chen and the aura merged into one.

"Is this Serpent-Dragon the manifestation of the Saint Child potential? Such a breathtaking authority that even triggers the resonance of Heaven and Earth’s Ten Thousand Paths!"

"This is the Saint Child being acknowledged by the entirety of the Human Realm!"

A mysterious light glowed in Heavenly Cassia King’s eyes as he spoke with great solemnity.

Upon hearing these words, a flicker of astonishment passed through the eyes of several Kings, who found Heavenly Cassia King’s words somewhat perplexing.

"I was fortunate enough to have seen an ancient Book of Bone, which recorded that, despite the endless years, our Human Race has occupied the Wilderness, prospering and reproducing, even giving birth to the will of our race. But all of this exists atop the Mountains and Rivers, and the Earth is not inanimate, it too possesses spirit; thus, we call this land the Human Realm!"

"And in such a protracted span of time, generations of our Human Race have propagated, passing down through the ages. The bloodline has long since formed an indissoluble bond with this land. What the Book of Bone referred to, the will of the Human Race Group is also known as the Spirit of the Human Realm!"

Hearing Heavenly Cassia King speak thus, everyone came to understand that the Human Race and this Wilderness had become inseparable parts of a whole, having already become an integrated entity.

Consider that if the Human Race merely had its group will manifest independently, why, when the Human Emperor sealed the Mountains and Rivers, could King-level Tribes govern several or dozens of domains of Mountains and Rivers, and even connect with the land they governed!

Over the eras in the Wilderness, the Human Race has nurtured the land, and in turn, gained the land’s acknowledgment, giving rise to a unique Human Qi on the land. The Human Race and the Earth have long become one entity, known as the Human Realm!

And the reason why the Human Emperor can control the entire Human Realm is because he has been recognized by both the Wilderness Earth and the will of the Human Race.

Beneath the coiled Serpent-Dragon, Xiao Chen immersed himself in an inexplicable and grand will. Only when the divine flowers in the sky faded away did he finally come back to his senses.

At that moment, Xiao Chen attained an epiphany regarding the Saint Child potential - fundamentally different from the fortune of War Titles, and the blessings of Divine Marquis.

The blessings of War Titles, Divine Marquis, were nothing more than the descent of the Purple Gold fortune of the Human Race. To gain the fortune’s favor, it required only the slaughter of foreign races, accumulating enough to solidify a fortune’s title.

However, the Saint Child potential was different; it not only contained the fortune of the Human Race but also included the acknowledgment of the entire Earth.

It mattered not how many foreign races Xiao Chen had slain, nor how many Kings he had crushed, because without impacting the vast Wilderness Earth, he could not possibly invoke its favor!

Just like this time, with the Earth shattered, Xiao Chen having contributed to its salvation, naturally gained the acknowledgment of the entire Earth!

"So, this is the Human Realm – everything is a single whole."

With eyes piercing through the void, Xiao Chen murmured, only realizing now his previous understanding of the Human Race will was far too narrow.

This Earth had long since become inseparable from the Human Race; perhaps, this was the greatest treasure left to the descendants by their ancestors!

The Human Realm, just like the realms of the Hundred Clans, the Wilderness Earth is the Human Realm, acknowledged by the entire Earth!

The Saint Child is not only the sovereign of the Human Race but also the steward of Mountains and Rivers!

Having gained the recognition of the entire Human Realm, Xiao Chen now saw the trajectories of the Multitude Paths of the Heaven more clearly, perceiving the Earth profoundly, vast, profound, capable of bearing great virtue!

At this moment, he was recognized as the Human Saint Child by the people of Heaven and Earth!

"Congratulations to the Saint Child, for having received recognition from Heaven and Earth Mountains and Rivers, and blessings from the Human Race Group, ascending to the position of Saint Child!"

Witnessing the grand aura that filled the sky disappear, Zi Yun King and the four great kings gathered around and spoke out in turn.

Suddenly, the Jiao Long that perched atop Xiao Chen’s head vanished into thin air, as if it had never appeared, and the other kings didn’t find anything amiss with this. After all, the Human Saint Child was not for show!

"Fellow kings, in the coming time, please rest well. The Southern Territory will require a hefty hand from all of you!"

Xiao Chen’s gaze turned towards the approaching few, and he responded.

Although he had consolidated the nascent form of a hidden dragon, the fruit of the Saint Child had only just condensed and was still quite tender; a long road lay before him!

To contend for the Human Emperor’s seat, one must traverse the Dragon’s Gate, and transform a Jiao Long into a true dragon. The magnitude of merit required is unimaginable. This is no longer just about slaying numerous foreign race kings; it requires significant contributions to the entire Human Realm!

The seat of the Human Emperor is not easy to claim, hence the merits of each Human Emperor were enough to be engraved in the tribe’s annals!

And he intended to become the Human Emperor!

The trials and tribulations of ascending to the position of Human Emperor need not be elaborated!

"Saint Child, the crisis in our Southern Domain has temporarily subsided, and we are preparing to return to our respective King-level Tribes. After all, as kings of our territories, we need to sit in our domains and suppress troubles!" said the Qiong Lake King after some pleasantries.

Hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded. With only their five great King-level Tribes over the whole Southern Territory, it fell to them to maintain order over each domain. If not for the human race crisis, the four kings would not have left their domains and entered the Beast Underworld.

Fortunately, at least for now, the offensive of the Royal Beast Race could be slowed, and the crisis of the Human Race’s Southern Territory was somewhat sustained. It was very likely that a standoff with the Royal Beast Race was next!

After some discussion, the four great kings left the Gu Yuan Tribe. As for offensive operations against the Royal Beast Race, for the time being, only Gu Yuan and other hidden Ancient Clans were taking action!

There was no choice; the stability of the Southern Territory was naturally the utmost priority!

...

The affairs within the tribe were left to Nianhua, while Mu Qing led the hunt over the tribe’s domains, and all four kings returned to their respective King-level Tribes to oversee them.

In the Beast Underworld, the hidden Ancient Clan kings led their troops to fully occupy the northern region of the Beast Underworld. For a short while, there was no expansion outward, as the sudden loss of more than twenty kings had plunged the Royal Beast Race similarly into a brief calm.

The Human Race, with Qiong Lake King City at the center, began constructing defensive offensives at all the crucial points throughout the territory of the Royal Beast Race’s Northern Region. All War Masters converged, and kings took their seats at strategic locations, beginning to digest the fruits of their war victory.

Xiao Chen, however, retreated into the Mountain River Seal to begin seclusion. Now that he had condensed the fruit of the Saint Child, his strength was still not quite on par with that of a Saint Child, so he planned to try the opportunity mentioned by Luli!

To find out if the Bodhi Ancient Tree truly had the miraculous effects claimed by legends!

Under the Bodhi Ancient Tree, Xiao Chen sat on a withered cushion, while Luli’s graceful figure swayed to and fro in front of him.

"Master, I have thoroughly sealed those few kings you mentioned; they can be suppressed within your Small World. This way, their Blood Qi can be slowly drained, gradually and imperceptibly stabilizing your Small World!" Luli said, waving her jade hand continuously. Following the flash of blue light from her hand, several figures fell to the ground.

They were Elder Zhenhai, a semi-nine heavens king of the Fei Yi Emperor Race, the Fei Yi Emperor’s Son, the three king brothers from the Outer Region, and other three kings above five heavens.

Xiao Chen’s gaze swept over them, and he couldn’t help but laugh; Luli indeed had excellent skills. Although these kings of the Fei Yi Emperor Race were sealed by her, they suffered injuries that seemed beyond recovery, with Blood Qi constantly escaping from their bodies!

Although this Blood Qi didn’t seem strong to him, such a wisp of Blood Qi let loose in the outer world could make a half-king burst. Now being completely sealed, they couldn’t heal their wounds and could only let their own Blood Qi continuously escape.

Having them subdued in his Small World meant absorbing their Blood Qi continuously and imperceptibly.

"Master, about the Tree of Life you mentioned, it’s just that you’re too greedy. To nurture a spirit item to King level quality requires a gradual process. That’s also why, Master, even when you use the bones and blood of kings to stimulate growth, the resulting spirit items not only fail to break through the six heavens limit of kings, but instead fall in rank. Spirit items also require a nurturing process; haste brings no success," Luli explained.

"Was I too greedy?" Hearing this, Xiao Chen replied with a wry smile.

He then wasted no time, collecting the eight now silent Fei Yi Emperor Race kings into his Small World—where their Blood Qi never ceased to diffuse out.

Since he could not obliterate them, then one day, their Blood Qi would run dry, and their lives would come to an end!
