Chapter 147: Chapter 97: The Dominant Palace of Light_1

"In the beginning, our clan was exterminated and I barely managed to survive in the Grand Commerce.

Eventually, under a serendipitous opportunity, I joined the Divine Light Sect."

Master of the Withered Wood spoke in a plain tone as if he was an outsider observing the situation.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan assumed that the ’serendipitous opportunity’ meant that Master of the Withered Wood was captured by the Desire Deviant Door and sent into the Divine Light Sect as a spy.

"My clan was destroyed and one of its treasures ended up lost, becoming a prize for the top hundred in the Eastern Soil Prodigy List.

It will be four years until the ranking of the Eastern Soil Prodigy List is determined.

I need you to enter the top hundred and retrieve this treasure of my clan."

Master of the Withered Wood provided more details to Qi Yuan.

For the top hundred of the Eastern Soil Prodigy List, the rewards were exceedingly rich, even including the opportunity to step into the Purple Mansion realm.

A higher rank would allow the first choice of the treasures.

The treasure from Master of the Withered Wood’s clan was quite special. Outsiders who found it didn’t realize its value and treated it as a regular precious treasure, including it among the rewards for the Eastern Soil Prodigy List.

"Top hundred, no problem, Sect Master. What is the great opportunity you mentioned?" Qi Yuan was obsessed with the great opportunity.

Upon hearing this, a touch of affection appeared in Master of the Withered Wood’s calm eyes: "This item is called the Netherlight Soul Wood. Those below the Purple Mansion realm can consume it to increase one minor layer of spiritual soul strength."

This was undoubtedly a true treasure.

Its greatest use was to be consumed at the late stage of the Divine Infant realm to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.

In this way, the chances of surpassing the tribulation of the Purple Mansion would increase.

Master of the Withered Wood never used it, preserving it for the breakthrough into the Purple Mansion realm.

Now, he gave this Netherlight Soul Wood to Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan opened the small gourd and saw a stick-shaped, jelly-like substance inside immediately.

After a swift glance at it and confirmed its identity, his eyes lit up with joy, "Sect Master, you are really a great person. Even if you are a spy for the Desire Deviant Door, I accept you."

At this point, what he lacked most was an item like the Netherlight Soul Wood that could enhance his spiritual strength.

"This item is extraordinarily precious. Hold onto it for now and use it when breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm," Master of the Withered Wood reminded upon hearing Qi Yuan’s words, despite the twitch at the corner of his mouth.

This was because below the Purple Mansion realm, it can elevate by one minor layer spiritual strength.

The later it was used, the better the effect.

"Is it also better to use Heavenly Foundation Building later on?" Qi Yuan asked.

Master of the Withered Wood was taken aback: "It should be."

He hadn’t seen the Heavenly Foundation Building, how would he know?

Qi Yuan took note of this to heart.

No matter how precious this item was, he would first swallow it and raise his strength.

"During this period, focus on enhancing your cultivation. When the Eastern Soil Prodigy Battle begins, I will instruct you further." After saying this, Master of the Withered Wood wanted to leave.

At this moment, Qi Yuan stopped Master of the Withered Wood: "Sect Master, may I make a small request?"

Master of the Withered Wood looked at Qi Yuan: "Don’t push it too far!"

"No, it’s not too far. Sect Master, my wife has a hobby, she likes to eat some snacks." Qi Yuan pulled Xiao Jia into the conversation.

"Get to the point." Master of the Withered Wood looked at Qi Yuan, clearly not pleased.

"The Blood Crystal Mine in Bloodless City, I want the sect to buy it. All the Blood Crystals should be brought to me."

Master of the Withered Wood gave Qi Yuan a cold look. "Is this what you call a small request?"

The Blood Crystal Mine in Bloodless City was very well-known among independent cultivators.

A lot of independent cultivators relied on it to improve their abilities.

If Master of the Withered Wood monopolized the Blood Crystal Mine without handling the situation properly, it could invite hostility from independent cultivators.

Such hostility is nothing to Divine Light Sect.

As the Sect Master, he had to consider the overall situation and make the decisions that would maximize benefits.

"Give me five days." Once Master of the Withered Wood finished speaking, he turned and left.

In the humble wooden house, only Qi Yuan and Xiao Jia remained.

Inside the wooden house, Qi Yuan looked at the Netherlight Soul Wood in his gourd with a greedy expression.

"I hope it can help my divine soul advance to the late stage of Foundation Establishment!"

Only in this way could he officially start the second game and truly descend into the game world rather than being trapped in the Windy World.

Qi Yuan held the Netherlight Soul Wood and began to swallow and digest it.

...

The Grand Commerce Kingdom, Imperial Palace.

Thousands of civil and military officials knelt, creating a grand scene.

"First we pay homage to the heavens!"

"Second we pay homage to all the celestial gods!"

"Third we pay homage to our ancestors!"

The voices were loud and resonant, reverberating through the ears of all present, leading them to pay their respects.

Colorful banners fluttered, and deep drum sounds reverberated, followed by the majestic and resounding music.

Dong Xian slowly ascended the steps. The ministers held jade scepters to express their loyalty and obedience; eunuchs held a mammoth signifying the supreme dignity of the royal family.

Under the gaze of all, Dong Xian ascended the throne.

"The new emperor ascends..."

All civil and military officials knelt once more.

Dong Xian, dressed in dragon robes, had an air of authority in his eyes.

At this moment, his heart was filled with excitement and a sense of surrealism.

Without going through countless hardships and thrilling experiences, he had simply become the Emperor of the Grand Commerce.

This is an emperor’s throne he had once dreamed of.

"Qi Lao, is all this a dream of mine?" Dong Xian couldn’t help but ask Qi Lao.

Qi Lao’s voice echoed in his mind: "Humph, you little guy just lacks experience. What does being an Emperor of a mere Grand Commerce amount to?

Across the Hundred Nations, there are hundreds of emperors.

But not a single one in the Purple Mansion realm.

You, young one, better concentrate on cultivating and strive to step into the Purple Mansion realm in a few thousand years. That’s for the purpose of reconstructing my body."

The words of Qi Lao shattered Dong Xian’s previous joy.

Yes, what does being an emperor amount to?

Didn’t his late father also reign as the Emperor of the Grand Commerce?

The outcome is obvious.

Dong Xian regained his composure, his previous giddiness vanishing.
