Chapter 477: Brother, you must believe me! I really am from the Heavenly Time Faction!

The fifth level only has nine floating islands. The Marquis Transformation technique deployed by Venerable Bai Han in this layer of the Dharma Realm is several times more powerful than the forty-nine islands on the fourth level.

As Palace Master Jixia and Zhao Xing landed together on the edge of Crescent Island, they immediately felt the pressure.

"Sss, sss, sss~" The black soil of Crescent Island crystallized on a massive scale, then shattered into gravel; a layer of the ground suddenly vanished, turning into a gaseous state that rose and merged into the clouds.

"Click, click, click~" Zhao Xing had originally been using the Heart Dragon Transformation, but now, cracks were appearing even on the crystal scales.

Even if he covered himself with a layer of Azure Flower, the Azure Flower magic power consumption was immense. Assuming he walked in the form of the Heart Emperor Dragon, he could last at most a dozen days.

As for the Primordial Avatar? The Marquis Transformation affected the entire floating island, not just living beings; non-living objects were subjected to the same pressure. Only the ten strongest avatars could withstand it; the rest cracked the moment they were released from ordinary storage rings.

"Ju Dragon Transformation!" Zhao Xing immediately switched forms, executing the Group Dragon Transformation. The dragon scales flipped and shifted like flowing water, turning an earthy yellow.

His physique also rapidly shrank, the scales became more tightly packed, a touch of azure light covered them, and a bead appeared on his forehead.

The Ju Dragon excelled in defense. This defense was passive; even every inch of flesh inside his body was incomparably tough, and his bodily structure was incredibly stable. After switching, he immediately no longer feared the Marquis Transformation pressure of the fifth level.

"Hmm? What race is this?" Palace Master Jixia watched Zhao Xing's transformation with interest. "Integrating the origin of the two Great Daos of Earth and Wood into the flesh—to actually resist the fifth-level Marquis Transformation with the physical body alone without needing to activate any innate talents."

Palace Master Jixia was still in the form of a Moon Spirit Cat, but he was currently burning a layer of flames to resist the fifth-level Marquis Transformation; he could not rely on his physical body alone.

"The Dragon race of my Great Zhou," Zhao Xing explained.

"The Dragon race?" Palace Master Jixia nodded slightly. "I must go take a look at your home dynasty when we get out."

"If you come, Palace Master, I shall naturally sweep the bed and welcome you."

The two adjusted themselves and soon adapted to the Marquis Transformation environment of the fifth level.

Palace Master Jixia spoke: "The Marquis Transformation power on Crescent Island has a total of five layers, mainly utilizing the origins of the Water and Fire Daos. Two layers of Fire Transformation, two layers of Water Transformation, and one layer of random change."

"Not counting that unknown and random fifth change, my magic power, using the Myriad Spirit Marquis Transformation technique, can allow me to hold out on this island for about seven years."

"If I have to fight, the duration will be even shorter."

He was laying his cards on the table for Zhao Xing; since they were traveling together, they naturally needed a rough concept of each other's strength.

Although Zhao Xing's Marquis Transformation technique had infinite variations, it was fundamentally the 【Myriad Spirit Marquis Transformation】 of the Four Seasons Palace, just with numerous templates.

Demon Ape Transformation, Divine Feather Transformation, Rock God Transformation, Group Dragon Transformation... all were derived from the changes in the solar terms of the cosmic Great Four Seasons.

The advantage was that it was very easy and fast to change back; one only needed to rectify the Five Elements and Four Seasons Qi positions of the human body to switch quickly without injury.

Palace Master Jixia had assumed Zhao Xing would last shorter than him, but he did not expect Zhao Xing's answer to exceed his expectations:

"Without fighting, my magic power can maintain the Marquis Transformation state on the fifth level for about thirty years."

"Thirty years?" Palace Master Jixia was stunned. That was more than four times his own!

In reality, Zhao Xing was still being modest; he hadn't factored in the amplification of the Azure Flower magic power and the Red Lotus magic power. Assuming he didn't fight, he could maintain the Marquis Transformation technique by cycling the two magic powers, allowing him to survive on the fifth-level floating island for three hundred years. Only after three hundred years would he exhaust his magic power.

Just in terms of cultivation of the Marquis Transformation technique, Zhao Xing, who had comprehended over a hundred thousand Life Dao Diagrams in the lower four levels, had already surpassed Palace Master Jixia.

Of course, Palace Master Jixia was not the strongest in the Marquis Transformation technique within the Four Seasons Palace; the strongest should be Palace Master Myriad Spirit.

"Whoosh, whoosh~"

Just as they were speaking, one dragon and one cat quickly crossed mountains and ridges, arriving at the edge of the floating island's core area.

They kept their flight altitude as low as possible because the clouds in the sky, the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning of the four seasons changed constantly; the higher one went, the stronger the Marquis Transformation pressure.

"It seems to be here." The Moon Spirit Cat suddenly stopped on a hill, his fluffy head looking in all directions.

"There seems to be an abnormal fluctuation, different from the current Marquis Transformation laws, but it is very faint."

Zhao Xing felt it too; the emergence of an ancient cultivation magic treasure could interfere with the Marquis Transformation of the fifth-level floating island.

It was just very difficult to sense this trace of abnormality amidst the violent Marquis Transformation of the fifth-level floating island.

On the fifth-level floating island, the Marquis Transformation power was already comparable to the late stage of the Emperor level; anyone who came up here was equivalent to constantly fighting a powerhouse at the late Emperor level.

In such high-intensity combat, having to divide one's attention to sense that slight abnormal fluctuation was something even Palace Master Jixia wasn't sure about.

Zhao Xing closed his eyes to sense it, then said: "Please, Palace Master, block the Marquis Transformation for me for a moment."

"Good." The Moon Spirit Cat waved his claws, and a beam of moonlight spilled down; accompanied by the rising moonlight, a spring breeze brushed his face, rotating and surrounding Zhao Xing's dragon body.

Zhao Xing immediately switched to the Heart Emperor Dragon form, and then his heart power spread across the entire floating island.

The Marquis Transformation fluctuations of the entire floating island were boiling like the sea, and beneath the sea, a point of light was emitting fluctuations, constantly spreading.

"It's in there!" Zhao Xing pointed to a green gas barrier to the south of the floating island, less than ten thousand miles away.

"Go!"

One dragon and one cat quickly rushed into the miasma.

The miasma swamp was a toxic barrier formed by the mixing of the Qi of heaven, earth, and living beings on the floating island under the fluctuations of the heaven and earth Marquis Transformation.

Entering the toxic barrier, both Zhao Xing and Palace Master Jixia slowed down because they also had to resist the invasion of the toxic barrier, just like the elixir rain in the first trial.

After advancing for half a day, Palace Master Jixia became excited.

"Found it!"

Even without Zhao Xing pointing the way, Palace Master Jixia himself had discovered the existence of the ancient cultivation magic treasure, because golden light was leaking out from the fog ahead, and the outline of the magic treasure could be seen with the naked eye!

"Meow!" Palace Master Jixia excitedly wanted to rush forward, but Zhao Xing pressed him down with a dragon claw. "Palace Master, there are still experts here; don't be impulsive."

In Zhao Xing's heart perception, eight figures appeared in the golden fog, all closer to the treasure than they were.

Further away, there seemed to be others lurking, harboring the intention of reaping the benefits.

"Zhao Xing, who is there?"

"I don't recognize them." Zhao Xing activated Heart Watch, allowing Palace Master Jixia to share his heart vision.

"I recognize two." After obtaining the vision, Palace Master Jixia immediately saw the eight figures in the fog clearly. "It's Hu An and Bo Qiu inside... we're a step late."

The golden light appearing in the toxic barrier was emitted by a small bronze tripod; it cleared a portion of the toxic gas area, making the vision clearer.

However, around the small bronze tripod, there were eight existences.

Hu An of the Carlos family, Bo Qiu the Horned Abyss Snake, and six others he didn't recognize, but they were traveling together, all with late-stage Emperor-level fluctuations.

The three groups seemed to have arrived at the same time, and facing the small bronze tripod, none dared to be the first to make a move to snatch it.

"I'm afraid there's no hope of getting the magic treasure." Palace Master Jixia shook his head.

Although the Horned Abyss Snake was at the late Emperor level, he was innately gifted, and his Heart Abyss could be

considered an ability at the peak of the Emperor level.

The six late-stage Emperors had a very well-rounded team composition, and their strength could not be underestimated.

Hu An Carlos was a martial artist at the peak of the Emperor level; he ignored the fifth-level Marquis Transformation and the toxic barrier with his physical body alone. He was one of the four strongest people, living on the fifth level for a long time.

Palace Master Jixia was only at the late Emperor level, and even with Zhao Xing, it was impossible to defeat these people.

Even if some were from the Imperial camp, when faced with benefits, where was there any talk of camps? If they really clashed, they would likely die even faster.

"Yes, there's no hope." Zhao Xing also said.

But saying that, neither of them left immediately.

If they didn't snatch it, keeping a safe distance to watch the battle was still possible.

What if there was a chance? That was a magic treasure stronger than a top-grade Reincarnation Dao Weapon; who wouldn't want it?

"Hu An! You already have three magic treasures!" Bo Qiu, still shrouded in a black robe, stared at Hu An. "You are a Qi Sect martial artist; why bother competing for these external objects? Better to let me have it; I owe you a favor."

Hu An had a crew cut and wore very ordinary hemp clothes, looking completely harmless, but because he was here, no one dared to act rashly.

Hearing Bo Qiu's words, Hu An glanced at him indifferently: "You aren't even human; where would a favor come from? I don't lack it, but I won't let you have it either."

"You!" Bo Qiu was immediately furious; in the present company, only Hu An could see through his true form at a glance.

Because of this, he was very wary and didn't dare to be the first to make a move to snatch it.

"Brother Hu An." One of the six-person group to the south of the tripod, a medical Dao Emperor, spoke up. "I am Zhong Qi of the Tai Su Palace. Since you don't lack it, we are willing to pay one million Profound Spirit Ancient Coins to ask you to withdraw from the competition, and we will give you another fifty thousand Profound Spirit Ancient Coins after we get out."

"The Tai Su Palace is a top-tier medical Dao force, and their reputation is quite significant. Offering such a high price, it seems this is a top-grade magic treasure." Palace Master Jixia was somewhat excited.

Top-grade Reincarnation Dao Weapons that could sell for a million Profound Spirit Ancient Coins were rare, but Zhong Qi of the Tai Su Palace was willing to pay so much, clearly seeing the value of the bronze tripod.

"Could this magic treasure be the one I've seen before?" Zhao Xing's gaze penetrated the fog, trying to see it clearly.

In his previous life, the Primordial Hill had handled a batch of ancient cultivation magic treasures at an auction held by his own family; Zhao Xing's cultivation base wasn't high at the time, but he had joined in the fun to see them.

This bronze tripod now looked very much like the one he had seen.

"Transform!"

Zhao Xing switched forms again, becoming an Emperor Dragon with a thousand compound eyes, finally seeing through the heavy fog and Dao barriers to see the appearance of the bronze tripod clearly.

He saw that inside the bronze tripod, there was a faint layer of pure yellow gas.

"It really is it, the Two Instruments Tripod that nurtures the Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth!"

Zhao Xing immediately understood its value.

As a demigod of the Heavenly Time Faction, Venerable Bai Han excelled in the Marquis Transformation technique and also excelled in using the Marquis Transformation technique to collect the essence of heaven and earth.

He was a Farming Official after all; as a demigod Farming Official on a cross-domain ship, he also knew how to farm.

The bronze tripod magic treasure wasn't important, but the Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth inside the bronze tripod was extremely precious!

That was the essence formed by collecting the Six Qi of Heaven and Earth for countless years; absorbing it was enough to cause a huge transformation in one's True Spirit, and one's Daoist cultivation realm could also rise to a higher level.

The point was, absorbing it could skip a True Spirit Tribulation!

Assuming Bo Qiu the Horned Abyss Snake, who had passed three True Spirit Tribulations, absorbed it, he would be equivalent to having passed the fourth True Spirit Tribulation, and his innate secret techniques could also be further perfected.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xing was also tempted.

The Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth currently contained in the Two Instruments Tripod was more than when it was auctioned; there were at least three portions!

Enough for him and Palace Master Jixia to take the risk.

"Palace Master Jixia, let's pull off a job."

"Hmm? Zhao Xing, this is no joking matter..."

"There are three portions of Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth in the tripod."

"What? How are you sure..."

"I'm sure, Senior Gu Luohe once..."

As an Emperor of the Heavenly Time Faction, Palace Master Jixia naturally knew there was Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth in the tripod, and his eyes immediately went straight.

"Good, if Hu An really withdraws, then I'll do it!"

Hu An Carlos was at the peak of the Emperor level, having steadily passed five True Spirit Tribulations.

The others, including Palace Master Jixia, had only passed three True Spirit Tribulations.

Zhong Qi had passed the fourth True Spirit Tribulation and could also be called an Emperor at the peak, but he was a physician, and his combat power was not even as strong as the innately powerful three-tribulation Emperor Bo Qiu.

Assuming Hu An withdrew, Zhao Xing and Palace Master Jixia had a chance to compete.

"Whoosh~"

A ring flew toward Hu An; he took a look and nodded: "Good, Zhong Qi, I'll sell you a favor."

After saying that, Hu An rushed straight into the sky and actually left Crescent Island.

"He really left. Why didn't the people from the Tai Su Palace ask Hu An to fight the Horned Abyss Snake? Could it be a trap?" Zhao Xing was somewhat suspicious.

"Asking Hu An to make a move—if it's about money, they can't afford the price; selling a favor? Zhong Qi doesn't have that much face." Palace Master Jixia was very excited.

"Zhao Xing, you go and pin down the Horned Abyss Snake; I'll snatch the tripod!"

There was no time for further thought, and the two immediately took action.

"Boom~~"

The moment he saw Hu An retreat, Bo Qiu immediately burst his Dharma robe, revealing his true form, and activated his Heart Abyss to shroud the six Emperors, including Zhong Qi.

This caused the six-person group, who had moved closer due to the transaction with Hu An, to be stunned in place for a moment, while the Horned Abyss Snake spat out a mouthful of black gas, sweeping toward the Two Instruments Tripod.

"Awakening Spirit Needle!"

Six golden divine needles immediately flew out of Zhong Qi's blue bag, piercing into his own head and those of his teammates.

The influence brought by the Heart Abyss was immediately weakened by more than half.

"World of Swords!"

"Five-Flower Boundary-Breaking!"

A mechanical engineer and a sword Dao martial artist in the team immediately made their moves.

The World of Swords shrouded the Horned Abyss Snake, while the mechanical engineer threw out five Dao Weapons that looked like chrysanthemums with spikes, covering the bronze tripod.

The five spatial Dao Weapons immediately blocked the black gas, twisting and overlapping the space, as if it were wrapped up.

The Horned Abyss Snake had traveled over a hundred thousand miles, but was now treading water in place.

"Bastard!"

Bo Qiu was furious; ever since he revealed his true form, he always felt he was being targeted; these people were clearly prepared.

"Big, big, big!" More of Bo Qiu's snake body emerged from the Heart Abyss, coiling up, his pupils turning completely pitch black.

He focused his heart power to attack the sword Dao Emperor and the mechanical Emperor.

"Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo!" The World of Swords showed a flaw, and only one percent of the sword Qi landed on Bo Qiu.

"Click, click, click, sss~" The five operating mechanical Dao Weapons ultimately did not close,

leaving a small opening.

As both sides wrestled, the balance of victory tilted back toward the Horned Abyss Snake.

"Roar!!"

However, just at this moment, Bo Qiu discovered that a familiar roar had suddenly sounded in his Heart Abyss domain.

Immediately following that, a beam of moonlight rushed out from the toxic barrier, sweeping across the battlefield at extreme speed.

Palace Master Jixia, in his transformed Moon Spirit Cat form, used extreme speed to arrive first after starting late, swallowed the bronze tripod in one gulp, and then left dashingly.

Palace Master Jixia was most skilled in speed after transforming; it could be said he was the fastest among everyone present.

"Bastard! Stop him!" Zhong Qi was shocked.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Divine needles pursued, and mechanical Dao Weapons quickly formed a pocket array in front of the Moon Spirit Cat, wanting to swallow him.

"Clang!"

The Moon Spirit Cat kicked flexibly, seized this gap, and immediately turned back at a speed faster than when he came.

"Bang~"

A cloud of mist exploded, the Moon Spirit Cat's figure vanished instantly, jumping out of the encirclement again.

"Such flexible movement!" Zhao Xing stood in the fog, not directly participating in the battle, but seeing Palace Master Jixia's operation, he also felt it was truly stunning.

As a Moon Spirit Cat bloodline, Palace Master Jixia could still use the Heavenly Time Cloud Method to traverse space; he was worthy of being an old senior who had cultivated for countless years.

Like Zhao Xing transforming into a Heart Emperor Dragon, he couldn't use the spells of his human form unless he transformed into a Demon Ape.

But the Demon Ape's bloodline and form were closer to the human race after all; the life structure of the Moon Spirit Cat and the human race was worlds apart.

"What are you still stunned for? Run!"

The Moon Spirit Cat darted onto the top of the dragon horns, his claws grabbing Zhao Xing's dragon horns, a mist permeating his whole body, traversing again.

"Whoosh!"

Before the attacks of the Horned Abyss Snake and Zhong Qi and the others arrived, one cat and one dragon vanished from the spot.

"Rumble~~"

The instant the two vanished, the ground was suddenly blasted with magma.

"Ah, ah, ah, you idiots!" Bo Qiu roared angrily, chasing in the direction of Zhao Xing and Palace Master Jixia.

On the south side of Crescent Island, on a mountain peak.

"Hum~"

Cloud Qi suddenly emerged from the void, and then one dragon and one cat were ejected like cannonballs, smashing into the ground.

"Ugh~"

The Moon Spirit Cat spat out the small tripod from the pit, his whole body steaming: "My god, this tripod is too heavy; it almost exhausted me to death... Zhao Xing, my, my magic power is at the bottom; the rest is up to you..."

The Moon Spirit Cat retreated to his human form and fell asleep with a bang.

Exquisite operation came at the cost of severe overdraft. Palace Master Jixia was already unable to maintain the Marquis Transformation and fell directly into a coma.

Zhao Xing quickly protected Palace Master Jixia.

"The rest is up to me."

He quickly put away the bronze tripod and then prepared to leave with Palace Master Jixia on his back.

"Swish, swish~~"

Just at this moment, a figure in hemp clothes suddenly appeared in the sky.

It was Hu An, who had returned!

"Palace Master Jixia of the Four Seasons Palace."

"Then you must be Zhao Xing of the Primordial World."

"This appearance is quite fresh."

Zhao Xing wanted to take to the air, but Hu An's military boots just stepped down casually, and the space seemed to solidify, making it difficult for him to move.

"Don't struggle. For the sake of Gu Luohe, I won't kill you; hand over the magic treasure and valuable things."

The Carlos family really knew how to do business; they wanted the money, and they wanted the goods too. Eating from Zhong Qi's side, then eating from Zhao Xing's side.

"Senior, I am willing to hand them over." Zhao Xing immediately spat out the Two Instruments Tripod and also took out a top-grade Reincarnation Dao Weapon from an ordinary storage ring.

"Senior also knows that due to the Dharma Realm operation rules of the Polar Star floating island, I cannot open my internal world and world ring; what I have is all here."

Hu An had no intention of moving aside: "Too little. You are very rich; this doesn't match your net worth."

"Boom!"

Zhao Xing didn't waste words, immediately throwing the Two Instruments Tripod and the Reincarnation Dao Weapon into the distance, while simultaneously switching to human form and activating non-distance teleportation.

Hu An Carlos reached out one hand toward the thrown Two Instruments Tripod and top-grade Reincarnation Dao Weapon, and the other hand toward Zhao Xing.

"Bang!"

Zhao Xing was squeezed into an explosion, and materials scattered all over the ground.

"Non-distance teleportation of the Primordial Avatar..."

Hu An understood that Zhao Xing had run away.

There were over a hundred thousand lower-level floating islands, and he didn't know where Zhao Xing had teleported to, so he could only give up.

Of course, this was also because Zhao Xing had thrown the Two Instruments Tripod, distracting Hu An.

"So be it." The Primordial Avatar was already difficult to capture and kill; seeing the treasure in hand, Hu An didn't haggle further; if he ran, he ran.

He glanced at the small tripod; it was empty inside, so he casually threw the Two Instruments Tripod into his storage ring.

On Tooth Stone Island, Zhao Xing's figure appeared.

However, just as he stood firm, he immediately activated a second non-distance teleportation, appearing on Sea Star Island.

"The people of the Carlos family are indeed insidious; he didn't leave at all, but was watching everyone."

"Fortunately, I also predicted his prediction."

In Zhao Xing's dantian, there were currently four very heavy dark yellow essence Qi.

The four strands of Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth had been taken away by him in advance.

"Palace Master Jixia."

Zhao Xing infused Azure Flower magic power into Palace Master Jixia's body to help him recover.

"W-what was the result?"

After Palace Master Jixia woke up, he was still panting like a dog, but he was still concerned about the result.

"The plan succeeded; Hu An did indeed snatch it, but he didn't kill us immediately; we got the Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth."

"Good, good, good! Cough, cough..." Palace Master Jixia laughed heartily, but his Dharma body soon trembled violently, and various parts showed different degrees of disintegration.

"Palace Master, you should rest for a while." Zhao Xing continued to channel Azure Flower magic power to him for recovery.

"Good, I'll rest first..." Palace Master Jixia didn't try to be brave anymore; coming to the Polar Star floating island, he had never been healthy. He was either injured or on the way to being injured.

"Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth."

Zhao Xing was examining the Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth in his body; it was incomparably heavy, as if condensed from countless types of heaven and earth essence over countless ages. Looking at it, he felt his True Spirit stirred by it.

"I haven't passed a True Spirit Tribulation yet; absorbing it now is too wasteful," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

The Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth seized the creation of the heaven and earth origin and could allow one to skip a True Spirit Tribulation.

Nine tribulations of the Emperor become a demigod.

Except for the True Spirit Tribulation of becoming a demigod, the Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth could take effect at any tribulation.

"True Spirit Tribulations get stronger each time; if I use it here, it's not cost-effective; it should be used to pass the seventh and eighth tribulations to maximize the benefits."

Its value was immeasurable; if sold, a seven-tribulation Emperor would be willing to offer his entire net worth. Because it was truly capable of saving a life, allowing one to live another life!

In the following time, Zhao Xing and Palace Master Jixia rested quietly on Sea Star Island.

After Palace Master Jixia recovered, he didn't mention the Mother Qi of Heaven and Earth to Emperor Black Sea and Emperor Xu Star.

Wealth moves people's hearts; he couldn't be sure these two wouldn't harbor crooked thoughts.

But he trusted Zhao Xing, healing right under Zhao Xing's nose; this was the effect brought by reputation.

Time passed, and the competition on Crescent Island soon ended.

Three years later, Zhao Xing was watching the movements of the fifth-level floating island.

"Wanting to ascend to the fifth level and go to other floating islands to comprehend is very dangerous; only Emperor Chi Xiao might have hope."

Of the nine floating islands, four had owners, and another one had the monster version of Emperor Tian Wu on it.

The other four were also difficult to comprehend in peace because people came to the island from time to time, and one might be killed while comprehending.

"When I was in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, I once called on Emperor Chi Xiao; now I don't know if he will agree to let me go and comprehend..."

With the lesson of Wei Tianchen, Zhao Xing was now much more honest.

"Still have to make contact; I have the Primordial Avatar; I can't beat Emperor Chi Xiao, but I should be able to escape."

"If I don't ascend to the fifth-level floating island to comprehend the Dao Diagrams, I cannot compete with other Emperor-level powerhouses, let alone ascend to the sixth level to clear the stage."

One day, three years later, Zhao Xing left Sea Star Island and took the risk to ascend to Chi Xiao Island, one of the nine floating islands on the fifth level.

"Rumble~~"

Chi Xiao Island was shrouded in golden clouds; it was entirely a cloud island, and even the lower half of the island was wrapped in golden clouds; it didn't look like an island, but more like a sphere.

On the surface of the clouds, lightning and void winds constructed mysterious patterns, and the terrifying fluctuations made people afraid to approach easily; one look and it was clear the owner of this island was not to be trifled with.

"According to Emperor Black Sea and Emperor Xu Star, apart from Hu An, Sword Monarch Ye Liuxin, and the mysterious person, no one else dares to come to the fifth-level Chi Xiao Island to explore."

"Emperor Chi Xiao hasn't been to other islands either, focusing solely on comprehending on this island; he hasn't even participated in the competition for the emergence of magic treasures."

Clearly, Emperor Chi Xiao had great ambitions; he disdained taking any magic treasures, and his goal was only the three floating islands on the sixth level.

"An old friend has come to visit; I ask Emperor Chi Xiao to see me."

Zhao Xing blew out a gust of wind, which landed on the surface of the clouds on Chi Xiao Island, calling out softly and constantly.

Inside the island, in an elegant and noble pavilion, Emperor Chi Xiao sat cross-legged, facing a stone tablet in front of him.

After hearing the movement from the outside, Emperor Chi Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of lightning passing through them, and memories quickly surfaced in his mind.

The final image froze on a scene in the Time Hut of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom ten thousand years ago.

【Scene】

"Tian Ningzi..."

Emperor Chi Xiao pointed a finger, and a hole suddenly appeared in the clouds, golden light falling down to guide Zhao Xing to land.

"Since an old friend has come to visit, please enter the Cloud Pavilion for a chat."

Zhao Xing didn't hesitate, immediately following the cloud path to land inside the island.

Outside, there were bursts of lightning and howling winds, but inside, it was a scene of tranquility.

Zhao Xing looked around; the island was sunny and pleasant, with flowers, grass, and trees in groups, and even many pavilions standing tall; there was absolutely no sign of Marquis Transformation.

"Emperor Chi Xiao has completely conquered the fifth level?" Zhao Xing was shocked. During the Yuanhai Dharma Assembly, among the nine Emperors, Zhao Xing thought Emperor Chi Xiao's strength was inferior to Meng Wu, Wei Tianchen, and even Hong Shan.

But seeing him again today, Emperor Chi Xiao's strength seemed to have greatly improved.

When he met Emperor Chi Xiao himself, he discovered that the other party had already passed six True Spirit Tribulations, stronger than Hu An, who had only passed five.

"Should I call you Zhao Xing, or Tian Ningzi?" Emperor Chi Xiao watched Zhao Xing land.

"If Brother Chi Xiao is happy, you can call me whatever you like."

"Hmph, you still dare to come and see me." With a cold snort from Emperor Chi Xiao, the heaven and earth suddenly changed color, howling winds and surging thunder creating a scene of world destruction.

Nine bolts of lightning headed straight for Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xing stood motionless, as if ignoring these attacks.

Seeing this, Emperor Chi Xiao suddenly retracted the lightning just as the tongues of lightning were about to touch Zhao Xing.

"Are you not afraid of death?"

"Brother has no murderous intent; what do I have to fear." Zhao Xing was panicking inside, but on the surface, he remained calm and relaxed, slowly walking into the Cloud Pavilion and sitting down in front of Emperor Chi Xiao.

"Not only am I not afraid of the Emperor, but I also have to ask Brother for a favor."

"Hahaha? What a huge joke!" Emperor Chi Xiao laughed loudly. "You tricked me once last time, and you actually want me to help you?"

"Tell me, how do you want me to help you?"

Why was Zhao Xing so certain? Mainly because he saw on Emperor Chi Xiao's panel that he had several spells from the Annihilation Star Six Qi Theory.

In other words, Emperor Chi Xiao had not only read his Dharma theory but also cultivated the spells.

The Annihilation Star Dharma theory still had many hooks left; since Emperor Chi Xiao was so interested, not only studying the scriptures but also cultivating the spells, he wouldn't kill him immediately no matter what.

And as long as there was a chance to speak, Zhao Xing believed there was no Farming Official he couldn't handle.

"I just want to borrow Brother Chi Xiao's precious land to cultivate for some years."

"You and I have a common pursuit."

Emperor Chi Xiao snorted coldly: "Are you talking about the sixth level of the floating island? Then I should kill you even more; how could I let you become my competitor?"

Zhao Xing shook his head: "No, the common pursuit I speak of is not the small inheritance of the Bai Han Realm, but promoting the Heavenly Time Faction and pursuing the Heavenly Time Dao."

"Does Brother know that the Annihilation Star Theory is not a Dharma theory of the Earthly Benefit Faction or the Self Faction; its roots should be in the Heavenly Time Faction!"

Emperor Chi Xiao remained cold: "You didn't say that when you held the Dharma Assembly; the Six Qi Theory has an Earthly Benefit chapter and a Self chapter, but it has no Heavenly Time chapter!"

Zhao Xing said helplessly: "In the current Profound Spirit Star Domain, the Earthly Benefit Faction and the Self Faction have the Primordial Hill and the Primordial World; even if I wanted to promote the Heavenly Time Dao, I am weak and alone, and with these two big mountains pressing down, what can I do?"

Emperor Chi Xiao's expression softened slightly: "So, you also believe from the bottom of your heart that the Heavenly Time Dao is the mainstream and the ultimate Dao to save the world?"

"Of course!" Zhao Xing rummaged through his storage ring and took out an ancient book, slapping it on the table. "All my life, I have been searching for the existence of the Polar Star; joining the Primordial World to cultivate the Self Faction's spells, and even the Earthly Benefit Faction's spells, was just to seek the Dao in a roundabout way."

【Scene】

"Brother, this is the Heavenly Time chapter of the Annihilation Star Six Qi Theory; this is the true essence. You are the first to see it; doesn't that prove that you and I are like-minded? Doesn't it prove my philosophy?"

Emperor Chi Xiao really wanted to blast Zhao Xing away and didn't want to listen to his nonsense, but the words changed when they reached his lips; he subconsciously picked up the ancient book to flip through it, while asking: "Am I really the first to see it?"

"Brother, you must believe me; if there is any falsehood, let me be struck by lightning!" Zhao Xing said solemnly!
