Chapter 1939

Upon learning that Ye Ye Changqing needed Seven-Fragrance Fruits, the middle-aged man replied truthfully.

"This is no problem at all. However, the quantity of Seven-Fragrance Fruits is scarce. The previous batch has already been refined, and only two Seven-Fragrance Fruits remain. If Elder Ye does not mind, you may use these first, and after the next batch is procured, I will reserve some specifically for Elder Ye. How about that?"

The middle-aged man's attitude was respectful, and in his heart, he wanted to take this opportunity to befriend Ye Ye Changqing.

He knew the status of the person before him in the Dao One Holy Land.

Despite his young age, it was no exaggeration to say that Ye Ye Changqing's status in the Dao One Holy Land was definitely not something an ordinary Principal Elder could compare to.

Befriending him not only had no downsides, but could actually bring unexpected benefits to the Heavenly King Pavilion.

Therefore, if he could use the Seven-Fragrance Fruits to build a good relationship with Ye Ye Changqing, it would be entirely beneficial and harmless to the Heavenly King Pavilion.

He believed that even his master would not oppose his decision.

Upon hearing this, Ye Ye Changqing understood the middle-aged man's intention, nodded, and agreed to the proposal.

Soon, the two Seven-Fragrance Fruits were delivered into Ye Ye Changqing's hands; as for the next batch of Seven-Fragrance Fruits, they would have to wait for some time.

"Elder Ye, do you really not want to see Miss Yaoyao?"

As he was leaving, the middle-aged man took the initiative to ask. If Ye Ye Changqing were willing, he could have the top courtesan Yaoyao come over immediately.

But regarding this, Ye Ye Changqing had little interest, shook his head, and refused.

After procuring the required items, Ye Ye Changqing returned to the Dao One Holy Land.

At the same time, above the Dao One Holy Land, thick clouds had been slowly gathering since evening.

At first, everyone didn't react, but until an ancient and extremely oppressive aura continued to strengthen, everyone looked up at the sky.

Before they knew it, the entire Dao One Holy Land was shrouded in thick clouds, giving the feeling that a storm was coming.

Under the shroud of the clouds, everyone felt oppressed and suffocated.

"What is going on?"

"Yeah, I suddenly feel so uncomfortable."

Just from a single aura, many disciples felt as if a large stone had suddenly pressed down on their hearts.

At first it was the disciples, and later even the Elders felt a sense of suffocation.

On the main peak, Shi Song and the others looked up at the sky.

"Is this a Heavenly Tribulation?"

"It's even more terrifying than the Great Saint Realm Heavenly Tribulation."

"Senior Brother..."

The fellow disciples guessed what it was almost immediately. Although these thick clouds had no unusual movements for now,

the hidden pressure was enough to make people fearful; it was hard to imagine what kind of power would be unleashed once it erupted.

The most critical point was that a pressure exceeding the Great Saint Realm Heavenly Tribulation could only be the Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation that occurred when breaking through to the Great Emperor Realm.

And right now, the only person in the Dao One Holy Land who could possibly break through to the Great Emperor Realm was Facing Qi Xiong.

Thinking of this, the fellow disciples flashed to the outside of Facing Qi Xiong's cave dwelling.

Sure enough, spiritual energy was constantly overflowing from the cave.

This spiritual energy was extremely unstable, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, clearly the state one would have while breaking through.

"Is Senior Brother really breaking through?"

Not expecting Facing Qi Xiong to actually succeed, everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Facing Qi Xiong's cultivation had actually always been a hurdle in his own heart.

Although Facing Qi Xiong didn't say it, as fellow disciples, Wu Shou, Shi Song, and the others knew.

Of the three Holy Lands and three Holy Lords, the Yunluo Holy Lord and the Yaochi Holy Lord were both at the Great Emperor cultivation level.

Only Facing Qi Xiong, as the Dao One Holy Lord, was still at the Great Saint cultivation level; this invisibly made him seem a notch lower than the other two.

This had always made Facing Qi Xiong feel very unhappy, so during this period, everyone had seen Facing Qi Xiong's cultivation and efforts.

And all of this was to be able to break through to the Great Emperor Realm sooner.

To truly become a qualified Holy Land Holy Lord.

And now, Facing Qi Xiong was assaulting the Great Emperor Realm and seemed to have succeeded; everyone was naturally happy for him.

However, just as Wu Shou and the others were secretly rejoicing, Yun Sendai, Yu Bo, Wang Man, and Yuan Cang rushed over.

"Master, Uncle..."

Seeing the four, Wu Shou, Shi Song, and the others quickly bowed and taught, while Yun Sendai cursed unhappily from the start.

"Has this rebellious disciple gone mad?"

"Hm??? Master, what is this..."

"The Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation! Is he going to undergo the tribulation in the Holy Land? Can those little brats in the Holy Land withstand it?"

The Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation, let alone the disciples below, even those Elders might not be able to protect themselves.

Moreover, once this Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation fell, the entire Dao One Holy Land would be destroyed in an instant.

Also, since Facing Qi Xiong had broken through, why didn't he notify them in advance so that they old fellows could come to protect him?

Doing it without a word, breaking through just like that—he should have given a heads-up to let people prepare.

Yun Sendai cursed and grumbled, and after finishing, he turned to the others.

"Leave the Holy Land's affairs to you; we are going to protect this rebellious disciple."

"Yes."

Since Facing Qi Xiong had already begun to break through, Yun Sendai and the four naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch; they certainly had to protect him.

After speaking, Yun Sendai and the four entered the cave, while Wu Shou, Shi Song, and the others silently left.

Over the next few days, the Dao One Holy Land became increasingly oppressive; some disciples with shallow cultivation even felt that breathing had become exceptionally difficult.

The air seemed to have become thick, and their hearts felt heavy and extremely oppressed.

However, the disciples also knew the reason for the appearance of these clouds: the Holy Lord was assaulting the Great Emperor Realm, so the Great Emperor Heavenly Tribulation was slowly gathering.

Thinking of Facing Qi Xiong successfully breaking through to the Great Emperor Realm, although the disciples were uncomfortable, they were still exceptionally excited.

After all, if Facing Qi Xiong really succeeded in breaking through to the Great Emperor Realm, the number of Emperor Realm existences in the Dao One Holy Land would directly reach five.

Compared to the other two Holy Lands, the Yunluo Holy Land and the Yaochi Holy Land, they would have one more Great Emperor.

By then, the Dao One Holy Land would be the true number one Holy Land of the human race.

Having one more Great Emperor meant there were too many things they could do, and the consequences of leaving a Great Emperor unchecked were absolutely unimaginable.
