Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. He felt as if his soul had been stirred.

In fact, when Emperor Jing had first mentioned it, he had a vague premonition in his heart.

That person was most likely Zheng.

Although the history of that world was somewhat different from that of his previous life, it was still quite compatible in terms of the character and strength of the characters.

He did not expect that Zheng, who was already at his limits in his previous life, would be so powerful in that world that he was unreasonable.

He looked down on the ancestors of the human race and used his human body to comprehend the god techniques in the divine blood on his own. Then, he led the group to break through the star beast’s defense and entered the starry sky.

It was simply amazing!

There was also that Xia Bingning.

Her aptitude was also very strong.

However, she had said before that the place where she was located was filled with experts and there were many geniuses. She could only be considered to be at the middle-to-upper-class level there, far from being considered to be at the top-class level.

Ye Xiao was already beginning to suspect that she was from a certain god race.

If that was really the case, then it meant that there were still many prodigies with extremely high standards in the starry sky!

Among them, there might even be quite a number of people whose cultivation speed surpassed his. There might even be many people of the same age whose cultivation surpassed his.

Just thinking about it was exciting.

It seemed that he would have to keep a low profile when the god race came in the future.

If he had nothing to do in the early stages, he would try to stay in the library and read books. He would try not to go out recklessly.

This way, it would be less troublesome.

Of course, the most important thing was to make good use of the time to cultivate.

When he first came to this world, he did not have a deep understanding of that world.

He just felt that he did not have the talent, and there was no need to force himself. He just had to cultivate to a certain realm and float through life.

Moreover, that world before was a world with a perfect social law.

Other than the star beasts that were in danger, there was not much danger when he interacted with others.

Even if he was an ordinary person, there would not be too much trouble if he did not cultivate.

However, things were different at the moment.

The arrival of the god race would bring many martial arts experts.

Furthermore, he did not know what the laws of the Xuan Yuan god clan were like.

Ye Xiao remembered that when he read novels in his previous life, in a world that was similar to this kind of high-level martial arts, the law of the strong preying on the weak was enforced.

A single disagreement could result in the annihilation of a whole family!

Especially for those youths who liked to shout strange slogans, they were not even allowed to touch them.

They were like cockroaches that could not be beaten to death. If you beat them to death and they could not be defeated, they would go out to train for a period of time. When they returned, they would be able to slap you to death.

However, Ye Xiao could not remember some of the words clearly because they were rather cringy. Moreover, they had been around for quite a long time.

He only vaguely remembered a very famous saying. What was it called?

Thirty years east of the river… East of the river… River… River what?

He really could not remember the rest.

‘Forget it, let’s not think about it. Let’s think about some serious matters and raise my strength.

‘Right now, I need a huge amount of spiritual energy to refine my protective dragon energy.

‘Only by refining a total of 108 protective dragon energy could I have a way to advance to the God realm.’

However, the speed of using cultivation techniques and star beast meat to cultivate dragon energy was still too slow.

It would be great if an opportunity came to him, allowing him to raise a lot of dragon energy in an instant.

Just as he was thinking about that question, a dragon’s roar was suddenly transmitted into Ye Xiao’s mind.

Ye Xiao’s gaze turned cold, and Emperor Jing’s expression changed drastically as well.

The two of them looked at each other.

“It’s the Great Wall Array. The array was automatically activated.”

“Why is the array suddenly activated at this time? Could it be that the gods of the god race have arrived?”

Ye Xiao shook his head.

“That’s not right. It’s not the gods of the god race. It’s the star beast.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he instantly disappeared from where he was.

“A star beast! Such a huge aura. Could it be…”

Emperor Jing’s expression changed drastically. He had already thought of the reason.

In the next second, he also flew into the air and stood side by side with Ye Xiao.

The Azure Dragon also rushed over from afar.

Looking at the huge black fog in the sky, he could not help but say with a trembling voice,

“What a powerful aura. This aura is so powerful that it has surpassed all the star beasts we’ve ever seen.”

Emperor Jing clenched his fists. The expression on his face was extremely serious.

“It’s Forest God, Lin Qingbei! The former Beast God ranked second on the star rankings! A long time ago, he was actually a beastman. However, due to his monstrous talent, he became a supreme divine beast in just 200 years!

“His strength easily crushed all the supreme divine beasts and became the strongest ace among the star beasts.

“However, looking at his current aura, he’s many times stronger than before.

“If I’m not wrong, he must have absorbed all the divine blood obtained by the other star beasts into his body, allowing his strength to reach a new peak.

“The current him can be said to have completely dominated the star rankings!”

Azure Dragon could not help but feel a chill run down his spine when he heard that.

A chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

“This fellow is so strong. Ye Xiao, I think it’s best if you don’t go out. With the Great Wall Array set up by Emperor Ancestral Dragon, you should be able to hold on.

“No matter how strong he is, it’s impossible for him to break through the Great Wall Array!”

However, Ye Xiao shook his head.

“I want to go!”

At that moment, he was lacking a huge amount of energy to replenish himself.

Meanwhile, in Lin Qingbei’s body, there was the divine blood extracted by tens of billions of people from the Winged God clan, the Thunder God clan, and the Giant Gorilla god clan.

Lin Qingbei’s previous strength was probably inferior to Emperor Jing because Ye Xiao had heard before that Emperor Jing was ranked first on the star rankings.

However, at that point, Lin Qingbei’s strength had actually risen to such a level.

From that, it could be seen just how strong the power in the divine blood was.

If he could absorb all of the divine blood for his own use, how many more strands of dragon energy would he have in his body?

He definitely had a chance of advancing!

If he were to cultivate normally, one strand of dragon energy would take at least a month or so to cultivate.

Therefore, Ye Xiao was extremely eager for the power in Lin Qingbei’s body.

The Azure Dragon raised his eyebrows.

“Ye Xiao, there’s actually no need. A great opportunity comes with a great risk. The opponent’s strength is too strong. It’s very difficult for you to win.”

Ye Xiao stared at the black cloud in the sky with a determined look.

“It’s difficult to win, but it doesn’t mean that you can’t win.”

Emperor Jing had already seen through Ye Xiao’s thoughts.

Ye Xiao was different from them. In their lifetime, it was already pretty good that they could cultivate to the Emperor realm.

It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to advancing to the God realm!

Even so, Ye Xiao was different. He was the chosen one by his ancestors.

In his lifetime, he absolutely could not be just an emperor in the human world.

If that was the case, he would have let down the expectations of too many people.

Therefore, he had to continue to advance.

The divine blood refined by tens of billions of people was a great opportunity.

With that in mind, Emperor Jing patted Ye Xiao’s shoulder.

“Go, Ye Xiao. Do what you want to do!”

Ye Xiao nodded and used the Yin-yang Escape technique. His body instantly passed through the Great Wall Array.

Azure Dragon could not help but ask worriedly,

“Senior Zhu, aren’t you being too rash to let him charge out like this?”

Emperor Jing shook his head.

“In the path of martial arts, one should always press forward and be fearless.

“This child is much stronger than us old men. If we restrict his development here, it will harm him instead.

“He is a real dragon. A dragon should soar in the sky and stand above the clouds!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Jing raised his head and watched Ye Xiao’s departing figure, muttering in his heart,

“Ye Xiao, you must win!”

…

In the sky, Ye Xiao transformed into a streak of golden light. With a lightning-like posture, he charged into the clouds in an instant.

Bang!

The dark clouds directly emitted a thunderous explosion. Lightning exploded in the dark clouds. With a flash of white light, his imposing manner was magnificent.

Ye Xiao came to the cloud layer and did not say a single word of nonsense.

In the case of martial arts experts who were very strong, Ye Xiao’s plan had always been to immediately attack and kill them.

The Star-splitting Fist was activated, and a fist light with boundless power fiercely smashed towards the horizon. Within the cloud layer, a fist that looked like the size of a vegetable dish was also sent out at lightning speed at the same time.

Boom!

The two fists collided, and the shockwaves created a huge gap in the clouds.

Ye Xiao finally saw the other party’s face.

It was an extremely tall and sturdy figure. He was at least 12 to 13 feet tall.

His body was full of tall and sturdy muscles, and under the lightning, they constantly sparkled, like a shining steel mirror.

His body was covered with a thick black bear skin.

It was the skin of a supreme divine beast. He had peeled it off alive to make his own defensive armor.

Ye Xiao had a defensive armor before, but after being attacked by dozens of supreme divine beasts last time, his armor had already been broken. He had not had the time to repair and refine it.

Lin Qingbei’s eyes were very cold. They were bloodthirsty and cold. His teeth were as sharp as a bear’s. They were row by row, as if they could cut through everything.

After the two exchanged a punch, they separated. Ye Xiao had the Mahayana Divine Body, so he did not need to worry about being injured even if he did not have any armor to defend himself.

Lin Qingbei looked at him and said indifferently,

“I did not expect that the plan that young master had planned for three hundred years would actually be destroyed by your hands.

“There is actually such a monstrous genius like you in the human race!

“If I had not seen it with my own eyes, I’m afraid that I would not have dared to believe it so easily even until now.

“If I were to tell it to Young Master, he might not believe it.”

Ye Xiao also calmly opened his mouth to speak,

“The young master that you speak of is the person controlling the star beasts behind the scenes, right? The star beasts have existed for more than a few thousand years. The star beasts had already appeared long before the appearance of the human race in this world.

“I really want to know who that young master is, to be able to control the star beasts that were born thousands of years ago.”

Lin Qingbei’s expression was still cold.

“The vastness of the starry sky is far beyond your imagination. Although the star beasts were born long ago, it doesn’t mean that only this patch of starry sky has star beasts.

“The connections are complicated.

“If you want to know the answer, you have to rely on your own fist to ask.

“Are your fists strong enough?”
