Chapter 171: Yao Chi Empress! Master, Please Accept This Disciple’s Bow

The Dao Tree reached the heavens, piercing the clouds.
An aura that suppressed everything spread out, filling the space between heaven and earth.

Purple Qi came from the east, dyeing the sky a noble purple.

Golden lotuses and celestial flowers surged, growing from the void, transforming the entire Qian Du into a golden ocean.

Dazzling gold and purple filled the world, dividing the sky evenly into two colors, resembling a Taiji diagram of purple and gold.

Zhou Chen stood at the center of the Taiji diagram, the phantom of the Dao Tree behind him reaching from the heavens to the earth.

Countless people stared blankly at the sky, their expressions dazed, their minds swaying.

The interplay of light and shadow in the world intertwined and changed before their eyes, making it impossible to distinguish between reality and illusion, as if they were still in a dream.

Suddenly.

A wisp of Qi broke the harmony between heaven and earth. Even those who didn’t understand what it was felt a tremor, sensing a supreme and terrifying pressure.

“The aura of Immortal Qi!”

“Emperor’s Might!”

Zi Dian Huang, Hei Tian Huang, and other Martial Kings’ expressions changed abruptly. Even though they were usually high and mighty, their King’s Might shaking the four seas,

compared to an invincible Great Emperor or Great Vehicle Half Immortal, they were still insignificant.

A figure appeared in everyone’s sight.

No one knew when he had appeared, as if he had always been there, never leaving.

He wore black, his physique tall and sturdy, even more imposing than the 1.2 Zhang tall Zhao Long Xiang that Zhou Chen had met. He was probably two Zhang tall.

Standing there, he was like an insurmountable mountain.

“A Great Emperor expert!”

Zi Dian Huang and the other Kings’ pupils constricted. Even though the other party was just standing there, it gave them a feeling of trepidation.

A Great Emperor!

The pinnacle of mortal martial arts!
The ultimate of mortals!
Invincible in the mortal world!

Beyond that was the legendary Martial God!
That was the realm of Immortals and Gods.

Truly transcending mortals, their very essence reaching another level.

This “God” wasn’t some trash god like the Mountain Gods, Earth Deities, or City Gods from movies, but a true God from the realm of Gods and Demons.

For a Great Emperor expert to progress further, they needed to break through their acquired limitations, reverse their innate nature, and become an Innate God or Demon, possessing immeasurable divine power.

“It’s Tian Huang Great Emperor!”

Some experts recognized the newcomer. It was the Great Emperor expert from the Divine Wasteland Sect, one of the three Great Holy Lands of the Eastern Wilderness.

With brilliant light and majestic aura, Tian Huang Great Emperor stood there as if he had merged with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, forming an invincible aura that made all living beings bow in worship.

The Great Emperor’s aura permeated the world, shaking the nine heavens above and the nine serenities below. All things with spirits had to submit.

It was as if he controlled the will of this world. The sky rained down boundless brilliance, strands and wisps hanging like waterfalls from the heavens, surrounding his radiant body.

Silence reigned in all directions, countless living beings prostrating themselves in this direction, offering their pious worship.

“Even a Great Emperor has been alerted!”

Zi Dian Huang sighed inwardly, knowing that he had no chance with Zhou Chen.

He couldn’t possibly compete with a Great Emperor.

“Newly achieved Divine Ability Realm, yet possessing a 100,000 Zhang Dao Tree. Truly a once-in-an-eternity sight, unheard of!”

Tian Huang Great Emperor’s eyes, as majestic and brilliant as the sun, moon, and stars, gazed upon Zhou Chen, a complex and emotional voice emanating from his mouth.

As a Great Emperor of the present age, an ancient figure who had lived for countless years, his experience was naturally extraordinary. But the Tian Yuan Continent had never seen a prodigy with a 100,000 Zhang Dao Tree upon entering the Divine Ability Realm.

This was definitely a reincarnated Immortal or God.

And this Immortal or God was most likely a powerful figure in the Immortal Realm. Even ordinary Immortals and Gods probably couldn’t achieve this.

He was able to become a Great Emperor because of his natural talent and his Great Wilderness Divine Body, nurtured by the full support of the Holy Land.

He started cultivating at the age of three, reached the peak of the Ninth Level of Body Refinement at six, then diligently cultivated for fifty years, finally achieving complete mastery of Body Refinement.

He broke through at the age of fifty-six, entering the peak of the Divine Sea Realm.

At fifty-seven, he condensed his Great Dao Nascent Soul.

At sixty-five, he advanced to the Divine Seed Realm.

At eighty, he entered the Divine Ability Realm.

But Zhou Chen?

In an instant, he had comprehended the thoughts of countless weak cultivators in Qian Du, understanding Zhou Chen’s life.

He started cultivating at eighteen, condensed his Great Dao Nascent Soul in two and a half years, and now, at only twenty-five, he had already advanced to the Divine Ability Realm.

His talent paled in comparison to Zhou Chen’s, like an ordinary person!

And when he advanced to the Divine Ability Realm, his Dao Tree was only eight thousand Zhang.

Compared to one hundred thousand Zhang, it was a world of difference.

Terrifying!
“With your talent and foundation, Young Friend, becoming an Immortal or God, ascending to the heavens, is just around the corner!”

Saying this, Tian Huang Great Emperor’s eyes were filled with envy.

Although he was already a Great Emperor, at the peak of the mortal world, he was still a world away from the realm of Martial God, the realm of Gods and Demons.

A fine line separated them, but it was a world of difference.

Without a heaven-defying opportunity in this life, he would probably be stuck at the Great Emperor Realm forever.

“You flatter me, Senior!”

Facing a living Great Emperor, the pinnacle of power in the mortal world, Zhou Chen also felt immense pressure. The terrifying power emanating from the other party made him tremble.

Even though he had advanced to the Divine Ability Realm and his strength had soared, compared to this existence, he was still a world away.

As they spoke, Zhou Chen saw two figures standing beside Tian Huang Great Emperor, appearing out of thin air.

The three of them stood together, like three insurmountable mountains, their divine power immeasurable.

However, compared to Tian Huang Great Emperor’s colossal and powerful physique, resembling a giant, this man and woman were much more normal.

The man wore a Daoist robe, his hair tied with a golden crown, his body enveloped in immortal light, emanating an air of immortality and wisdom. His eyes were cold, as if piercing through everything, detached and emotionless.

It was the Great Vehicle Half Immortal from the Supreme Dao.

The woman was shrouded in mist, her true appearance unseen, which made her even more alluring, making people yearn to catch a glimpse of her beauty.

Her skin was like jade, her figure perfectly proportioned, undeniably beautiful. But what was most captivating was the mystery, the inability to see clearly, which made her even more alluring.

“Young Friend, your talent and potential are unparalleled in history. Becoming an Immortal or God is a certainty. However, the path of Immortals and Gods is arduous, and there will inevitably be villains coveting your treasures along the way.”

Her voice was calm, as beautiful as celestial music, like a warm breeze blowing into one’s heart, stirring the soul, possessing a strange magic.

“This Palace is Yao Chi Empress of the Purple Firmament Holy Land, and I am willing to guide and protect you.”

Hearing these words, Tian Huang Great Emperor and Ji Yue Xian Ren, the Great Vehicle Half Immortal from the Supreme Dao, narrowed their eyes.

At this moment.

The clouds in all directions surged, the heavens and earth trembled, as if three Gods and Demons had awakened, their figures towering, reaching the heavens and standing on the earth, their world-shaking divine power reaching the heavens.

“This Emperor is Tian Huang Great Emperor of the Divine Wasteland Sect, and I am willing to guide and protect you, Young Friend!”

“This Immortal is Ji Yue Xian Ren of the Supreme Dao, and I am willing to guide and protect you, Young Friend!”

The voices of the two resounded through the heavens and earth, leaving countless people dumbfounded.

These were the peak figures of the three Great Holy Lands of the Eastern Wilderness.

Two Great Emperors and a Great Vehicle Half Immortal!
They were actually vying to guide and protect Zhou Chen!

“This display is simply…”

“Terrifying!”

Zi Dian Huang, Hei Tian Huang, and the other Kings sighed inwardly, feeling a sense of inexplicable melancholy. Zhou Chen’s display was even more impressive than theirs.

They couldn’t help but notice that Tian Huang Great Emperor, Yao Chi Empress, and Ji Yue Xian Ren hadn’t even glanced at them, as if they were air!

Looking at the three big shots in front of him, Zhou Chen was a little conflicted.

Who should he choose?
“It would be even better if Young Friend is willing to become my disciple!”

Yao Chi Empress suddenly took a step forward. Mist swirled around her, her white clothes fluttered, her long black hair cascaded down like water, smooth and glossy, shimmering with a faint glow.

Around her, a shower of flowers danced in the air, beautiful petals and pistils, jade leaves and golden lotuses, sparkling and shining, fragrant like orchids and musk.

Enveloped in the rain of flowers, she appeared hazy and magnificent, making hearts flutter.

Her skin was like mutton-fat jade, whiter than frost and snow, smooth and delicate, rosy and radiant.

Her graceful figure, slender and voluptuous, swayed gently, her waist twisting like a beautiful snake, alluring and captivating.

Her long legs were straight and slender, seemingly a masterpiece meticulously crafted by heaven. As she moved, her breathtaking figure was accentuated, making all flowers pale in comparison.

With every graceful step, a halo of light appeared beneath her feet, transforming into celestial flowers that supported her jade-like feet. Each step exuded a unique charm, her grace boundless.

Her beauty was peerless, reaching the pinnacle of perfection.

Tian Huang Great Emperor and Ji Yue Xian Ren’s expressions changed, cursing inwardly, “Unfair play!
Using beauty tactics!
And wanting to directly accept him as a disciple!”

They had also considered taking Zhou Chen as a disciple, but they regarded him as a reincarnated Immortal.

They believed that for Zhou Chen to cultivate so quickly, he must have awakened his past life memories. Rashly proposing discipleship might offend him.

That’s why they opted for the suggestion of guidance and protection.

Anyway, once they got Zhou Chen back, they could observe him for a while before deciding whether to accept him as a disciple.

They didn’t expect Yao Chi Empress to make a direct move. They knew Zhou Chen was a bit of a pervert, or you could say, a lecherous person.

With Yao Chi Empress’s beauty, even if Zhou Chen didn’t want to become her disciple, he wouldn’t blame her. Besides, Zhou Chen had previously taken a beautiful woman as his master.

As for Li Chang Feng?
Zhou Chen probably hadn’t awakened his memories at that time, at most, he had awakened some insights into cultivation techniques, enabling him to progress rapidly.

Most reincarnated Immortals could only awaken most of their past life memories at the Divine Ability Realm or Deification Realm.

Their cultivation level wasn’t strong enough to bear it before that.

Before that, they only awakened some insights into cultivation techniques, solidifying their foundation and making it more stable.

“So beautiful!”

Zhou Chen was slightly lost in thought. Not to mention her flawless beauty that seemed out of this world, just her extraordinary aura as a Great Emperor was unparalleled.

Even though Zhou Chen was well-informed and had been playing in the high-stakes game lately, casually playing with, even wantonly playing with, goddesses at the peak of the Law Manifestation Realm,

all of them combined couldn’t compare to a single finger of Yao Chi Empress.

Zhou Chen didn’t hesitate. An Empress’s thigh, he had to grab it first.

There was no good ending for being a traitor.

He bowed deeply to Yao Chi Empress, saying,
“Empress Master, please accept this disciple’s bow!”

Seeing this, Tian Huang Great Emperor and Ji Yue Xian Ren sighed inwardly, filled with envy.

They knew that they had lost their chance with Zhou Chen.

As expected.

Beautiful women did have an advantage they couldn’t match.

Zhou Chen: I love their strengths and make up for their shortcomings.

“Good! Good! Good!”

Yao Chi Empress smiled, as if a hundred flowers were blooming. Her delighted voice was as beautiful as celestial music. She walked over gracefully, like a sparkling celestial flower swaying in the wind.

Her long black hair cascaded down, her skin radiant, emanating a holy glow, like a flawless goddess descending upon the mortal world.

She arrived before Zhou Chen, her soft and fair jade-like hand gently lifting him up.

It was the first time Zhou Chen had been so close to an Empress. A faint fragrance drifted from her, intoxicating and captivating. He couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

This subtle action naturally didn’t escape Yao Chi Empress’s notice. She couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Zhou Chen. What a little pervert.

“Congratulations to Empress Yao Chi for gaining such an outstanding disciple. It is a joyous occasion!”

Tian Huang Great Emperor walked over. Although he felt regret, the matter was settled, and he didn’t dwell on it.

As for destroying what he couldn’t obtain?

What a joke.

Did they really think everyone was that foolish?

Let’s not talk about whether he could destroy Zhou Chen or not. How much benefit could he gain from destroying him? And how great was the risk?

Before reincarnating, Immortals would definitely leave behind safeguards for their future selves.

Some powerful figures even reincarnated just for experience. When faced with a life-or-death crisis, they would directly awaken and return to their original powerful selves.

Such things had happened before in the countless years of the Tian Yuan Continent.

Eight million years ago, there was a Great Emperor from a Holy Land who, unable to break through, wanted to refine the body of a reincarnated Immortal to achieve a breakthrough.

But just as he was about to succeed, the Immortal abandoned that life, prematurely awakened his original self, recovered his cultivation, and with a single finger, killed the Great Emperor and destroyed the Holy Land with a single palm strike.

Of course.

There were also many reincarnated Immortals who died prematurely.

But someone as heaven-defying as Zhou Chen was probably a remarkable Immortal or God. Tian Huang Great Emperor had no grudge against Zhou Chen, so there was no need to take the risk.

“Congratulations, Empress Yao Chi.”

Ji Yue Xian Ren also walked over, his voice calm. Although he couldn’t take Zhou Chen back, he couldn’t offend him either.

After a brief congratulation.

Tian Huang Great Emperor and Ji Yue Xian Ren disappeared.

However, as Tian Huang Great Emperor left, he glanced at Huangfu Yue Yao on Dust Sword Peak, a teasing voice transmitting into Yao Chi Empress’s mind:
“This little fellow is quite adept at betraying his master and ancestors. Empress, be careful!”

“Don’t get backstabbed!”

Yao Chi Empress’s fair cheeks flushed slightly. She understood what he meant.

Huangfu Yue Yao was Zhou Chen’s master.

Although outsiders didn’t know their true relationship, they could naturally see that Huangfu Yue Yao and Zhou Chen’s relationship was extraordinary, not just master and disciple.

Moreover, Zhou Chen’s lifestyle was well-known.

They also knew that Zhou Chen could help others awaken their King’s Bloodline, but for them, King’s Bloodline wasn’t anything special.

Great Emperor Bloodline was what attracted them.

“You’re just envious and jealous. If he can really betray his master and ancestors, that’s his ability!”

Yao Chi Empress transmitted her voice, sneering.

Want to backstab her?

Zhou Chen was still far from capable.

A single drop of her blood could crush him!
Let alone penetrate her body!
“A breakthrough shakes the world!”

Zi Qing Xian Zi’s eyes flickered, her beauty unparalleled, emotions surging within her.

The little fellow from before had advanced to the Divine Ability Realm in the blink of an eye, and even became the disciple of Yao Chi Empress of the Purple Firmament Holy Land, soaring to great heights.

“Amazing!”

Li Chang Feng’s jaw dropped, his heart filled with shock. He didn’t know whether to say he was amazing, or Zhou Chen was amazing, or perhaps both.

He hadn’t expected that the little fellow he had brought out from the brothel in Qing He County would become the disciple of a Great Emperor in the blink of an eye.

Previously, becoming a disciple of the Unbounded Sword Sect had already exceeded his imagination.

This time it was even more terrifying.

He, the master, had only reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Truly, the student surpasses the master!

“Empress Master…”

Huangfu Yue Yao’s hair was dark and glossy, her skin whiter than snow, her eyes lively, her eyelashes long, her red lips sexy and vibrant.

She stood tall and graceful, her beauty breathtaking, her curves astonishingly perfect.

Looking at Yao Chi Empress’s unparalleled beauty, she thought of her own beautiful master and suddenly felt a strange sensation.

She felt…

Empress Master, you’re in danger!
Yao Chi Empress stood in front of Zhou Chen and suddenly looked beyond Qian Du.

“Not good!”

Xin Mo Wang, who was both shocked and terrified by Zhou Chen’s 100,000 Zhang Dao Tree and his becoming the disciple of a Great Emperor, trembled, her body stiffening.

She wanted to flee.

But her body was out of control, unable to move.

The next moment.

She was captured by Yao Chi Empress and brought before Zhou Chen.

With Yao Chi Empress’s cultivation level, a single glance at Yu Huan Xian Zi on Dust Sword Peak was enough for her to realize that Yu Huan Xian Zi had been possessed by a wisp of someone else’s soul.

However, that wisp of soul was imprisoned within the body and couldn’t escape.

And the owner of that wisp of soul, Xin Mo Wang, was outside Qian Du.

To Yao Chi Empress, Xin Mo Wang’s existence was like the morning star in the night sky, impossible to miss.

“Hmm?”

Zhou Chen looked at the woman captured by his Empress Master.

This woman had a slender and graceful figure, beautiful black hair, skin like congealed fat and jade, fair cheeks, a bright and smooth forehead, and eyes filled with intelligence and elegance, like a fairy from a painting.

But at this moment, her eyes held fear. She hurriedly bowed and said,

“This junior, Yu Wu Xin, greets Empress Yao Chi.”

Although she was afraid, her beauty remained, her every move graceful and captivating, her pearly white teeth gleaming.

Especially her voluptuous figure, her full and perky breasts, pushing her robes into several perfect and stunning curves.

He wanted to eat her!

Her slender waist was barely a handful, but her legs were long, fair, and shapely, like a pair of ivory pillars, making him…

Want to play with her!

Yao Chi Empress’s majestic phoenix eyes looked over, Yu Wu Xin’s delicate jade-like body trembling uncontrollably, filled with fear and unease.

“It would be a waste to kill her.”

Looking at Zhou Chen, Yao Chi Empress smiled sweetly:
“I’ll give her to you as a welcome gift!”
