Realms In The Firmament

People looked at Ye Xiao. They couldn’t believe it.

“Don’t be surprised. This is the power of the Monarch’s Hall.” Ye Xiao looked indifferent and said in a calm voice, “No matter who comes to this place, I decide his life and death. If I want him to die, he won’t live. From now on, I will not hide this power from the world!

“The power of a Monarch is used not only to bring grace to the world but also control death!

“This is the Monarch’s Hall!

“I believe nobody else has the power to kill this man and watch him die like we just did.”

Ye Xiao finally smiled. He looked at a man and said, “You all saw it… We are safe.”

The others nodded.

They knew what the Lord Monarch meant. They knew what they had seen, and they knew they were safe.

“I guess you all have learned the landscape of this place. I hope… I hope that we won’t need the array formation to kill the enemy. I hope that you can defeat the enemies with your own hands!”

Ye Xiao inspired the others.

“Yes, we will!” Meng Youjiang stood straight up. His eyes were on fire.

‘It must be the most terrible mistake the seven clans have done and will do to leave Ye Xiao for Ye Yunduan!’

The lotuses should follow the Great Ye Clan, but what a pity! That master was not as good as this!

The purple light that shined upon the Monarch’s Hall was eye-catching. Every cultivator in the City of Chaos had noticed it, but nobody heard anything.

It didn’t make sense. Many people jumped up in the sky and looked over. Some good ones flew over to check what had happened.

Many people realized how abnormal the purple light was!

When they arrived, the purple light was off. What was left was the green color of the trees and plants. Some cultivators who had the marvelous capability of spiritual mind only got to find some purple color on the leaves.

The Hall of Life and Death was silent.

It seemed nothing ever happened. There was no sign of any fights.

The cultivators shook their heads and then left. ‘The purple light… I saw it. It was glaring… There should be some great damage somewhere. I don’t see any trace of destruction here… Was it somewhere else?’

‘Was that an illusion?’

‘What a stroke of bad luck… I must have missed the chance to see that purple energy!’

…

Unlike those who came and found nothing, people of the Monarch’s Hall were thrilled.

They felt so good as if something was giving them a massage from the toes to the head.

For the Monarch’s Hall, a level-six Saint Origin Stage cultivator was a man beyond the clouds. However, people of the Monarch’s Hall actually watched that man die in silence!

He had become ashes scattering in the air.

What a shock!

After that, what Ye Xiao said had thrilled them even more, “Guys, work hard in cultivation. I promise you. In the Hall of Life and Death, the spiritual qi will always be over twenty times denser than the outside world!”

“There will only be more spiritual energy, not less.”

“In other words, cultivating inside this place will bring you as much as twenty years even thirty years worth of cultivation outside! It could even be much more!”

“Don’t be too excited, though. Don’t let your emotions disturb your cultivation. I don’t want you to be too excited now because you will become crazy soon if you are this easy to be excited…”

“The Hall of Life and Death is famous in the City of Chaos for our great dan beads. We will have more than enough dan beads to aid our cultivation. I have prepared three kinds of dan beads for you. One will improve your cultivation power, one will fix the flaws of your soul and mind, and the last will help you get a breakthrough. Qiu Luo, Bai Long, and Old Dark have improved greatly, and you all saw it. Just so you know, they got a lot of dan beads to help them while they work hard.

“With the help of the dan beads and your efforts, stay in the Hall of Life and Death for cultivation, and you will get five hundred years worth of cultivation! I am not lying!

“Within one year, the one thousand seven hundred and eighty-eight men here will all reach the Saint Origin Stage!”

Ye Xiao nodded and took a few steps forward. He then said, “Cultivation level is one thing, a fine weapon is another. You have traveled the martial world, and you have your own weapons. However, your weapons aren’t in good quality. I know that some men left us for the divine weapons that Ye Yunduan promised them… I am impressed that you didn’t go with them for the weapons, but it doesn’t mean we should neglect the importance of your weapons…

“Soon, you will know that Ye Yunduan’s so-called divine weapons mean nothing to me!”

“Qiu Luo!”

Ye Xiao called Qiu Luo.

Qiu Luo stepped out and said, “I am here, Master!”

“Show our brothers your Blade of Protection,” Ye Xiao blandly said.

Qiu Luo drew out the saber, and a splendid light lit up the fortress of trees.

It was like the glow in a dream. People were attracted to the beauty of such an incredible weapon.

They looked at Qiu Luo’s fabulous weapon, and they were jealous. They didn’t know why Ye Xiao showed them the weapon. In fact, some of them had an idea, but gave it up because it seemed to be absurd!

“I think some of you know Qiu Luo pretty well now. His weapon is a short saber, like a knife. It was normal, just a knife left to him by his wife.” Ye Xiao blandly said, “Now, the Blade of Protection has been reforged. I did it. It is the true Blade of Protection now. It is good, and it is the first divine weapon I made for the Monarch’s Hall.”

People were confused.

They couldn’t believe what Ye Xiao had just said. The Blade of Protection looked so good, but it hadn’t been used in any important fights yet. The real divine weapons must look normal, but their true power was hidden underneath. If a weapon looked shiny and bright, it was probably not a divine weapon.

The itinerant cultivators cared about their weapons the most. Whenever they had the chance, they would enhance their weapons first. If their weapons were damaged, they would pay whatever it costs to get them fixed. That was why Bu Xiangfeng would love to spend all the money he had to get the metals while Master Xiao was bidding for it at the same time.

Many people had their own weapons, which were top-class weapons in the world. They didn’t believe Qiu Luo’s Blade of Protection could be better than their own weapons!

“Meng Youjiang!” Ye Xiao said.

“I am here, Master!” Meng Youjiang stepped out.

“Show me your weapon. Hit the Blade of Protection with your saber,” Ye Xiao said.

“What?” Meng Youjiang was shocked.

…
