Chapter 590: Monarchs of the Five Places

Translator: Radiant Editor: Radiant

The black-robed woman was likewise puzzled about Xue Ying’s identity because she did not recognize him, and only after listening from the side did she understand that for her and Qiu Bai to be able to be reincarnated from the River of Time, it was all because of this Xue Ying.

Feeling Chi Qiu Bai hugging her from the side, the black-robed woman giggled. She felt sweet. This was something she had desired too.

“Old White Ghost, you should send them away. The exchange is over, so I’ll be leaving first.” Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction said.

“This time, I’ll have to thank Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction.” Xue Ying expressed his gratitude too.

Without the Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction’s participation, Xue Ying did not dare trust White Sovereign King.

“Hahaha…” Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction smirked, glancing at White Sovereign King before turning around, taking a step into the time-space tunnel and disappearing.

White Sovereign King looked at Xue Ying; he was too lazy to speak more.

He knew his own reputation wasn’t too good.

“Let’s go.” White Sovereign King ordered.

“Go.” Xue Ying waved his hand, keeping Chi Qiu Bai and his wife into his Cultivation Eden. Following that, he went along with White Sovereign King into the time-space tunnel, going along the path back home.

With White Sovereign King accompanying him, the path back home was much safer because with Xue Ying’s current combat power, as long as it wasn’t a Paragon who acted, there wasn’t many who could threaten him. Even that ‘King Patrol Devil’ was someone Xue Ying estimated could suppress him at the most.

Hu hu.

Finally, they reached the surface level of the Dark Abyss, traveling through the blurred piece of darkness and following along the time-space tunnel. Xue Ying who had been traveling along felt the higher-up ‘Willpower of the Dark Abyss’ which represented destruction, darkness, and slaughter, finally retreating back.

As he walked out from the time-space tunnel, it was a piece of void already, and also the region within the Deity world.

“Dong Bo Xue Ying.” White Sovereign King walked out of the time-space tunnel, standing on the void. The edge of his lips curled up, “This time, for you to get the original copy of the first half of Blood Demon Scripture from my territory meant that you are quite amazing. But you shouldn’t be too delighted. You better cultivate properly and transcend beyond the River of Time. If you can’t, you will only have a lifespan of 10 billion years. A pathetic brat who can’t transcend and is able to take this original copy of absolute art is a humiliation to me.”

“There is no need for Sovereign King to worry about this point.” Xue Ying indifferently said.

That sir commander from the Destruction Legion was a stage four World Deity, and he had been mentioning to Xue Ying many times that ‘the realm was fundamental’.

Xue Ying personally understood this point. If he could not transcend, everything would turn to emptiness.

“Sovereign King, then we’ll take our leave first.” Xue Ying said. White Sovereign King nodded before returning to the Dark Abyss once again. And ahead of Xue Ying, a Starfield Flying Ship appeared. He stepped on it before beginning his journey through the time-space once again.

Standing on the deck of the Starfield Flying Ship, there were currently Xue Ying, Chi Qiu Bai, and the black-robed woman Wu Xi. The two of them had their bodies reconstructed. To Xue Ying, it was a simple task.

“I truly would not have thought that I, Chi Qiu Bai, will have this day either.” Chi Qiu Bai stood at the deckhead, looking at the surrounding stream of colorful time-space tunnel, “I could actually regain my fleshy body, and arrive in the Deity world. There’s also Little Xi with me.”

“Qiu Bai.” The black-robed woman giggled too.

Xue Ying was happy to see this scene.

Eternal Wind had always been living a life of torture. Near the end of his life, he was incarcerated and tortured by Da Er Hao for many years and had also been used by Howling Devil Cult Leader to cultivate in the Blood Demon Scripture, causing him to be filled with resentment. The previous life… of Eternal Wind was indeed too sullen. Even his true love, ‘Wu Xi’, had been tortured to death by Da Er Hao, and was similarly in a tragic state.

And now, everything changed. Xue Ying felt happy for Chi Qiu Bai too.

“Xue Ying, this gratitude is something I’ll inscribe in my heart.” Chi Qiu Bai said, “It’s just that with your current combat power and status, it’ll be hard for me to return the favor.”

“What are you saying these for? Eternal Wind, where do you and your wife want to travel? Is it to the Xia Clan world? Or the Deity world?” Xue Ying asked, “The Xia Clan world has the Crimson Rock Mountain world too, and it’ll be easy for you all to enter there.”

“Let’s go to the Xia Clan world.” Chi Qiu Bai looked at his wife, “I and Little Xi have been away from home for too long.”

The black-robed woman chuckled too.

“Alright.” Xue Ying nodded.

The speed of the Starfield Flying Ship was relatively fast. As they arrived at their destination, Xue Ying brought them into the material realm, ‘Xia Clan world’.

…

In midair of the Xia Clan world.

The black-robed woman Wu Xi was standing in midair, looking at the rich, vast world. Her eyes were full of brightness, and she looked, “Xia Clan, hometown…”

“We are back.” Chi Qiu Bai revealed a grin too.

“Then I’ll leave first and not disturb both you husband and wife, hahaha, if there’s any matter, just send a message to me.” Xue Ying laughed as he took a step and disappeared.

Only then did Chi Qiu Bai and Wu Xi regained their romantic couple’s world, looking at each other.

“The things I want to do are many.” Chi Qiu Bai said.

“Me too.” Wu Xi said, “Qiu Bai, come with me. I’ll bring you to a place.”

The two turned into streamers and flew along the sky.

Xue Ying brought along the True God weapon Flying Knife, leaving Xia Clan world. At his current combat power, the True God weapon Flying Knife had already been refined, and he naturally could bring it along.

“Hu.”

The Starfield Flying Ship arrived at the Bloodshed God Palace.

Xue Ying’s current mood was excellent. Other than the massive transformation in his combat power, the more important point was that he had completed a vital matter by helping Eternal Wind.

‘With Eternal Wind’s talent, even as his soul was split into two when he was a Transcendent, he was able to grasp hold of the grade two True Meaning. His talent was extremely high, and I wonder how far he could walk to now that he experienced so much hardship.’ Xue Ying was looking forward to it. In the entire history of Xia Clan, if comparing talent, then other than his true body and Jing Qiu who reincarnated as a stage three World Deity, the other person with the highest talent was Chi Qiu Bai. Even though his own children might be outstanding, but they pale in comparison with Chi Qiu Bai. His children had been groomed by him and Jing Qiu, so the cultivation resources they obtained were a few times better than that received by Chi Qiu Bai.

Just landing at the Bloodshed God Palace, Xue Ying rushed over to the Crimson Stone Courtyard.

Suddenly, a message transmission came.

“Xue Ying, come over to my place.” A voice resounded by his ears.

“Teacher?” Xue Ying immediately confirmed before moving towards his teacher.

That was a wooden courtyard.

That wooden courtyard stood a crimson-robed Bloodshed God Emperor alone. The black bird wasn’t there.

Xue Ying had just walked over from outside, moving forward and politely greeting, “Disciple greets teacher.”

“This time, the disturbance you created isn’t small.” Bloodshed God Emperor chuckled, “Fighting one on three and could still kill a powerful existence of the Abyss, and for you to bring the original copy of the first half of Blood Demon Scripture from the Dark Abyss. Haha, those three Rulers from the Abyss must have felt ashamed. I might have always been paying close notice to this, but it isn’t good for me to act either. The moment I act, those three Rulers from the Abyss will definitely act too.”

“Disciple understands.” Xue Ying said.

“This absolute art from the Destruction Legion is very amazing. You could attain this combat power after becoming a stage four World Deity.” Bloodshed God Emperor praised, “Your current combat power could be considered at the apex amongst powerful existences, and close to the Paragon.”

Xue Ying agreed with this point in his heart.

“Since you are stronger now, it is due time for you to accept greater responsibility.” Bloodshed God Emperor chuckled, “You are currently a Bloodshed Tavern Master, so the region you are responsible for will naturally increase.”

Xue Ying immediately received a piece of information. It was information coming from the internal system of the Bloodshed Tavern, telling him the change in the region he was responsible for.

“Yes.” Xue Ying immediately acknowledged.

This little responsibility was something he had to shoulder!

“With your current combat power now, it is time for you to learn of more things too.” Bloodshed God Emperor calmly said, “On the road of cultivation, it is impossible to avoid certain battles. If you don’t fight for opportunity, it will only land in your opponents’ hands. Your opponents will be able to become stronger and trample on you! The moment you fall, the second time you fall behind… it will keep accumulating until you are thrown far away! Thus, on the path of cultivation, you must always fight for it. You have to emphasize your internal strengths, and external resources too.”

“Disciple understands.” Xue Ying nodded.

He had received the three unique treasures left behind by the ice-sealed dead Paragon like the ‘crimson wristband’ and others. The crimson wristband and other treasures had the ‘time-space Dao’ inherent within, allowing him to reduce many obstacles when comprehending the Time-Space Deity Heart. If not for these three treasures, he would have to spend a few hundred thousand years.

Because of the True God weapon Flying Knife too, allowing him to improve his comprehension of the ‘slaughter’ and ‘mirage’s world profound mysteries. That was why he could attain success in cultivating the “Extreme Annihilation Mysterious Body”in a shorter period of time, and for his spear technique secret skill ‘Destruction’s power to increase significantly. Otherwise, when he was fighting one on three that time… and if his spear technique was not powerful enough, it was unlikely for him to escape.

This was resources.

His own cultivation was more critical, but external resources could help to catalyze his improvement.

“All sorts of battle allow the Deity world and Abyss to form into separate superpowers. Many powerful existences decided to rely on us for the sake of survival.” Bloodshed God Emperor said, “But I can only ascertain the safety of their avatars within the God Palace territory. As for going out to fight and kill… I will not participate in the battle between ordinary powerful existences. Pang Yi, Destruction, and Bamboo Mountain are all Paragons, and it isn’t good for me to participate in their matters too.”

Xue Ying nodded.

“The powerful existences under me, other than the scattered idle powerful existences, there is also the ‘Monarchs of the Five Places’.” Bloodshed God Emperor said.

“Monarchs of the Five Places?” Xue Ying was puzzled. He honestly did not know of this.

“The Monarchs of the Five Places require to have power close to Paragons. Only then could they take the position. I’ll also put in all my efforts to groom them. During any external-facing battle, the many powerful existences in my Bloodshed God Palace will also treat them as the commanders.” Bloodshed God Emperor said, “But currently, of the Five Monarchs of the Five Places, there are only two taking up the roles, and they are Gu Zang and North Hu.”

Xue Ying knew these two as well.

Monarch Gu Zang was his own senior disciple brother and had a combat power close to that of a Paragon.

North Hu Palace Master was an extremely ancient powerful existence and had a combat power close to that of a Paragon too.

“The other powerful existences are not strong enough, so they naturally do not have the qualifications to take up the responsibility.” Bloodshed God Emperor looked at Xue Ying, “You might only be a stage four World Deity, but your combat power is strong enough! Thus, I wish for you to become the third Monarch of the Five Places.”

“From today onwards, the many powerful existences in the Bloodshed God Palace will also be under the three of your command. Fighting with other superpowers…” Bloodshed God Emperor said, “The responsibilities you shoulder will be more, but naturally, you will get more benefits too, and it will be of great help to your cultivation.”

Xue Ying immediately answered, “Yes, disciple understands.”
