Chapter 939: Heavenly Emperor Weapon
Heavenly Emperor Weapon
"Hua Lü, look, my guess about your situation was right. Now your concubine has remarried and even had children with someone else. Now the child has grown to the Heavenly Soldier level. As for your wife, well... she took away ninety of your Imperial Palaces. I don't know where she ran off to."
After Li Yi left the Cyan-Gold Heaven-Reaching Tower, he couldn't help but start chatting.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! My wife has always loved me deeply; she would never do such a thing. She must have had limited ability, was unable to protect the Imperial City, sensed the crisis in advance, and therefore took away ninety Imperial Palaces to preserve the foundation and plan for a comeback in the future."
Hua Qing denied it flatly, saying it with certainty.
"The Celestial Realm is so big. Your wife took away ninety Imperial Palaces; can you even find her? Even if it's to preserve the foundation, it's probably not for you; it must be for herself." Li Yi said: "You are dead. Your wife has the resources you left behind; of course, she's going to go and squander them. But don't be too sad; such things happen often on our Earth."
"I remember on the TV news before, someone said that a man was working hard abroad, and after not returning for a period of time, his wife took the money and ran abroad to live, and could never be found again."
"Hua Lü, your current situation is very similar to the situation on the news before."
Li Yi couldn't help but laugh as he finished speaking.
"Enough! You evil Earthling, don't call this old man Hua Lü! And don't you try to bewitch me; my wife is definitely not the kind of person you imagine." Hua Qing cursed loudly.
"And this old man doesn't believe that among so many subordinates, not one is still loyal to me. The time since I fell is not long; there must still be loyal subjects. That slut Qing Lan betrayed me, so be it. When this old man, the Emperor, returns, I will definitely settle the score with all of them."
Li Yi nodded: "Then keep it up. I believe you can do it. But be quick, otherwise your concubine's second child will be born."
"Shut up!" Hua Qing shouted.
But after venting, Hua Qing calmed down very quickly. He knew that in his current state, he couldn't do anything, and there was no need to return to this Imperial City.
Now that he appeared in this state, those traitors would wish they could tear him into a thousand pieces; no one wanted to see the return of the former Great Emperor Hua Qing.
"Li Yi, do you know why my Empress only took away ninety Imperial Palaces and left the last nine?" Hua Qing suddenly took a deep breath and began to get serious.
"Tell me. This is also what I want to know. What secret does the last Imperial Palace have?" Li Yi asked.
Hua Qing said: "Because the remaining nine Imperial Palaces are my private forbidden grounds. Except for me, no one else has ever entered them. Usually, I would refine elixirs, refine weapons, and study divine abilities and techniques within those nine Imperial Palaces."
"Now, eight of the remaining nine Imperial Palaces are gone. The last one left must be the Ziwei Palace. I set up many great arrays to protect that Imperial Palace, and inside, I stored some of my private collections from when I was a Heavenly Emperor. Every single item is worth a fortune."
"If you can enter the Ziwei Imperial Palace and take the things inside, it would be equivalent to obtaining sixty percent of a Heavenly Emperor's net worth, enough for you to break through the Heavenly General Realm and enter the Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Realm."
"The most precious thing inside is a special Heavenly Emperor Weapon named the 'Years Imperial Furnace.' That Imperial Furnace has the power of time added to it. Under the flow of time, it can assist your cultivation. At the same time, it also contains Yin and Yang Qi, which can refine the physical body, Primordial Spirit, magic power, and bloodline. It is a tremendous help to any cultivator."
"You have cultivated the Zhou Tian Divine Demon Mysterious Method; you should know the wonderful uses of Yin and Yang Qi. And you have also entered strange places on Earth and felt the benefits of time being added to your body."
Li Yi heard this, and his expression shifted slightly: "A Heavenly Emperor Weapon? That sounds very tempting. You actually put such a valuable thing at home and didn't carry it with you?"
"That Heavenly Emperor Weapon also has flaws; it can neither attack nor defend. And at that time, I was already at the Heavenly Emperor level, so that thing was useless to me, so I left it in the Ziwei Imperial Palace to treasure it." Hua Qing said.
"Understood. That Imperial Furnace is useless to a Heavenly Emperor, but of great use to those below the Heavenly Emperor." Li Yi laughed: "It is indeed a bit of a 'chicken rib' 【useless but a pity to discard】. Besides this thing, what other good treasures are there?"
Hua Qing said: "There should be a bottle of Nine Heavens Divine Water, with a quantity of 100,000 catties. There are also some materials for Imperial Weapons, and some Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang puppets, etc. Wait, I remember now, the most precious thing is a Heavenly Venerable Token."
"That was something I risked my life to snatch before. As long as you hold the Heavenly Venerable Token, you can enter the Heavenly Venerable Secret Realm. It is said to be a special place formed at the intersection of chaos at the beginning of the birth of the Celestial Realm. It possesses the most incredible fortune in the world. After a Heavenly Emperor enters it, they have a chance to obtain the opportunity to break through to the Heavenly Venerable level."
Hua Qing originally didn't want to reveal so many secrets, but his Ziwei Imperial Palace would open in twenty days. If he didn't use Li Yi's power, these things would fall into the hands of outsiders.
Rather than benefiting others, it was better to benefit Li Yi.
After all, when Li Yi becomes successful in the future, he himself could also receive a generous reward.
Having spent these years together, Hua Qing still trusted Li Yi's character quite a bit.
"A Heavenly Venerable Token? If this thing is taken out, it will probably cause Heavenly Emperors to fight for it." Li Yi gasped upon hearing this. He immediately judged that this item was the most precious thing in the Ziwei Imperial Palace.
A Heavenly Venerable opportunity.
Who could withstand this? "Perhaps it is because the previous eight Imperial Palaces didn't have anything too valuable, so the matter of the Imperial City didn't attract the attention of other Heavenly Emperors." Hua Qing said: "At most, they only obtained Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Weapons in the previous eight Imperial Palaces. These things are not enough to make Heavenly Emperors get involved."
"But if the things in the last Ziwei Imperial Palace are exposed, that might not be the case. Once the news spreads, the entire Imperial City will suffer a disaster, and everyone here will die because of it."
Speaking of this, Hua Qing changed the subject: "Now, only you can control the things in the Ziwei Imperial Palace. Use your status as a member of the Celestial God Royal Clan. In this remote, desolate place, even a Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang wouldn't dare to do anything to you. Plus, with my secret guidance, you can take everything there without any effort."
Li Yi thought for a while, then said: "However, even brothers must settle accounts clearly. How do you want to divide the things after they are obtained? If I take them all, you probably won't be happy; after all, that is your lifelong collection. If I don't get any benefits, I won't risk competing with Heavenly Kings."
Hua Qing said: "After the matter is accomplished, this old man only wants 50,000 catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water, and to borrow the Years Imperial Furnace for a period of time. After I cultivate to the Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang level, I will leave. How about that?"
He knew he didn't have the qualifications to negotiate, so he only asked to take away 50,000 catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water. With this money, he could quickly build a force and restore his strength. Although he might not be able to return to the Imperial Throne, returning to the Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Realm was not a problem at all.
As for the Years Imperial Furnace and the Heavenly Venerable Token, it didn't matter if he gave them to Li Yi.
He didn't have much need for these two things, and after he restored part of his strength, he could go find his wife. She took away ninety Imperial Palaces, which was also a huge fortune.
Therefore, there was no need to fight with Li Yi for things at this critical juncture.
"You are really generous. You are worthy of being an Emperor; you have great spirit and great breadth of mind." Li Yi said: "Good, then it's a deal. I'll start preparing to act."
He and Hua Qing reached an agreement.
However, this matter was of great importance, and Li Yi couldn't handle it alone.
"Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Han Shan, I have an important matter to discuss with you." Li Yi said.
"What is it?" Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Han Shan heard this and arrived in one step. She looked at Li Yi with a bit of curiosity.
Li Yi pointed in the direction of the Imperial Palace and said: "You should have heard the words of Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Qing Lan earlier. There is the last Imperial Palace left by the former Great Emperor Hua Qing, named Ziwei Imperial Palace. Inside that Imperial Palace, there are some treasures, and among them is a Years Imperial Furnace."
"A Heavenly Emperor Weapon?" Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Han Shan trembled, her gaze filled with shock: "Tai Yi, is the information reliable?"
She didn't ask where Li Yi got this intelligence, because in the Celestial Realm, everyone has their own secrets, and it is normal not to want others to know them.
Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Han Shan only needed to know if this news was true and reliable.
"It can't be wrong. And besides the Heavenly Emperor Weapon, there are many other treasures inside, all worth a fortune, enough to make even Heavenly Emperors tempted." Li Yi said: "However, in this Imperial City, there are probably quite a few Heavenly Kings, and the news of the Imperial Palace opening has already spread. It is estimated that in twenty days, the forces within a radius of a million miles will hear the news and arrive."
"Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Han Shan, look, with our current strength, can we take this Imperial Palace?"
Although he had Hua Qing's secret guidance, without solid strength, wanting to take the treasures away calmly was probably not an easy thing.
The status of the Celestial God Royal Clan was intimidating, but that was only in normal times.
If they obtained a heavy treasure, Heavenly Kings would probably go crazy. At that time, they wouldn't care about your status; they would strike first.
Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Han Shan's gaze shifted slightly, obviously thinking as well. She looked out at the Imperial City, and several rays of starlight bloomed on her tall figure. She was using divine abilities and mysterious methods to sense this world, determining the approximate number of Heavenly Kings in this Imperial City.
Soon.
Han Shan said: "Tai Yi, with our strength, the risk of wanting to swallow that Imperial Palace alone is very high. But if we want to get a share, there is no problem at all, because quite a few Heavenly Kings have already gathered in this Imperial City."
"If we try to swallow it alone aggressively, we will definitely be besieged, and at that time, we will definitely fall into danger."
Li Yi narrowed his eyes: "What if we use the power of a Heavenly Emperor to wipe out this place?"
He still had a strand of Heavenly Emperor power sealed within his Celestial God arm ring. If he was pushed to the limit, he would just use his trump card.
"For the sake of a Heavenly Emperor Weapon, using a trump card is worth it. It's just that once the power of a Heavenly Emperor appears, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of other Heavenly Emperors. Once a Heavenly Emperor arrives in person, or if it arouses the interest of a Heavenly Emperor, and they descend with a strand of great power to investigate, I fear there will be variables." Han Shan said.
Li Yi felt a chill in his heart immediately.
If the Heavenly Venerable Token were discovered by other Heavenly Emperors, they would definitely kill to silence them. Han Shan said: "However, a Heavenly Emperor Weapon shouldn't be enough to make a Heavenly Emperor get involved personally. But in this remote, desolate place, if we encounter a poor Heavenly Emperor, it's not impossible."
"Tai Yi, the safest method is to ask the Celestial God Clan for help. Within twenty days, some Heavenly Kings should be able to arrive. The World Ship hasn't gone far; at the very least, Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Shen Wei will definitely come."
