Chapter 70: Lying to Win

Senior, can you take me along?

Liu Yiming, hoping for a chance, sent a mental transmission to that Back Blade Emperor.

That Emperor merely stood there, and a domineering, exceedingly sharp blade aura naturally erupted from his whole body!

That air of looking down on the world, that vast breath like the sea!

Even with Liu Yiming's current divine sense, he could not discern his exact cultivation level.

But the feeling he gave Liu Yiming was far stronger than that of an ordinary Emperor!!

Thigh!

If I follow him, in this swamp, moving would surely be much smoother.

I just don't know if he minds taking me along.

Liu Yiming secretly thought.

In this swamp, casually there are tens of thousands of Quasi-Emperor-level skeleton monsters; relying solely on Liu Yiming's strength, it's obviously impossible to move an inch!

Although he has life-saving measures given by Li Zhangsheng, and can even directly summon Li Zhangsheng to sweep away all obstacles!

But he doesn't want to use these measures so early, after all, that would make him look too incapable.

So he could only first try to choose this thigh-hugging approach.

Training aside, being able to hug a thigh is also a skill, right?

Of course, he didn't hold much hope that this Emperor could take him along; he was just asking hopefully.

Unexpectedly for Liu Yiming, upon hearing Liu Yiming's mental transmission, that Back Blade Emperor took a single step over and instantly appeared before Liu Yiming!

Liu Yiming instantly found himself within the range of his blade aura.

However, his surrounding blade aura held no hostility toward Liu Yiming, so Liu Yiming was not harmed by his blade aura.

Seeing that the Back Blade Emperor had no hostility toward him, Liu Yiming secretly loosened the hard character talisman in his palm.

Just earlier, when skeleton monsters kept emerging from the swamp, he had already taken out that hard character talisman as a precaution.

"I didn't expect to see a person in this swamp." The Back Blade Emperor sized up Liu Yiming, smiling slightly in surprise.

He too had been wandering in this swamp for half a day; no matter how fast he flew, he couldn't fly out of this swamp.

This swamp seemed boundless and empty, with not a single person.

Thus, the Back Blade Emperor flying alone in this swamp inevitably felt a bit lonely; now seeing the vigorous Liu Yiming, he also felt somewhat astonished!

In this barren land, being able to see a person is also not easy!

"Junior Liu Yiming pays respects to Senior."

Seeing that the Back Blade Emperor didn't look like a bad person, Liu Yiming bowed and greeted him.

"Seven Apertures Linglong Body, double pupil, supreme bone?" The Back Blade Emperor sized up Liu Yiming, a flash of surprise crossing his face: "Little guy, your talent and fortune are not bad!"

That Back Blade Emperor immediately saw Liu Yiming's condition.

The innate Linglong Body, double pupil, and supreme bone were all installed later by others!

However, the Seven Apertures Linglong Body is usually awakened only in women, so how could it appear in a man's body?

The cultivation world truly has everything!

"Huh? What is a Linglong Body?" Liu Yiming asked doubtfully.

"Didn't your elders tell you?" the Back Blade Emperor asked.

Liu Yiming shook his head: "No!"

"Then just regard the Linglong Body as one of your cultivation talents." the Back Blade Emperor smiled, not wanting to tell him that the Linglong Body is a female-exclusive physique.

"Oh!"

"How does this Linglong Body sound like something for a young lady?"

Liu Yiming secretly thought, then he again bowed and asked: "May I ask your esteemed name, Senior?"

"Fang Duanhe." the Back Blade Emperor said casually.

If Liu Yiming had trained in the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds, or had contact with people of the Heavenly Court, he would surely know that the Emperor standing before him is the Second Palace Master of the Heavenly Court, the dominant power of the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds!

However, Liu Yiming has only trained in the Nine Provinces Continent or nearby lands his whole life, and does not know the title of the Heavenly Court's Second Palace Master!

Fang Duanhe has already cultivated a wisp of immortal qi, a top-tier Emperor powerhouse!

"So it's Senior Fang!" Liu Yiming said.

"You brat, are you from the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds?" Fang Duanhe asked.

"Huh? Aren't all those who enter the Immortal Path cultivators from the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds?" Liu Yiming wondered, not knowing that besides the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds, the lower realms also have other domains.

"Under the Immortal Realm, there are three great realms: the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and the Three Thousand Dao Realms, collectively called the lower realms."

"However, the three great realms are separated by the Grand Void, with no contact between them."

"This time the Immortal Path opens, simultaneously opening to the three great realms of the lower realms; besides cultivators of the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds, cultivators from other realms also enter this Immortal Path."

Fang Duanhe, after all, is the Second Palace Master of the Heavenly Court, and the information stored in the Heavenly Court is immeasurably vast, so he naturally knows much more!!

"Oh oh, I didn't expect the lower realms to have such a division!" Liu Yiming looked enlightened, then said: "Senior Fang, after I entered the Immortal Path I was transmitted to this place; this place is extremely dangerous at night; I don't know if I can follow by your side, Senior."

"I, junior, only seek self-preservation and will absolutely not burden the senior!"

Fang Duanhe also didn't refuse, after all he was rather bored alone in this swamp, and he said bluntly:

"It's rare to meet a rising star from the same realm; anyway, I'm bored stiff alone, so what's the harm in bringing one along?"

"From now on, you'll follow this old man!"

"Thank you, Senior!" Liu Yiming's face lit with joy, and he hastily bowed in thanks.

Afterward, Liu Yiming followed at Fang Duanhe's side.

Having a big shot accompany him really makes a difference!

Liu Yiming simply followed behind Fang Duanhe; within a thousand li radius, it was a safe zone, and those Quasi-Emperor-level skeleton monsters could not even step half a pace beyond the Thunder Pool!

Liu Yiming felt joyful in his heart...

The next night, Liu Yiming and Fang Duanhe encountered a Emperor Realm-level skeleton monster!

However, this skeleton monster only had a fifth-level Emperor Realm cultivation, posing no threat to Fang Duanhe, who casually swept it away with a single swipe!!

Watching Fang Duanhe split that Emperor Realm skeleton monster in half with a casual swipe, Liu Yiming also felt somewhat astonished in his heart.

"Instant kill Emperor!"

"This Fang senior is probably the most formidable Emperor Realm I have ever seen besides the Sect Master."

Liu Yiming murmured inwardly.

Meanwhile, the Emperor Realm skeleton monster that Fang Duanhe had split in half, its massive body splitting open, a dazzling cluster of green light slowly floated up from its ruptured form.

"Huh?" Liu Yiming's eyes lit up upon seeing this: "Is this dropped equipment?"

Fang Duanhe casually gestured, and the dazzling cluster flew into his hand—a palm-sized bone, entirely bluish-green, feeling icy cold to the touch.

"This is Emperor Jade Bone; it seems this skeleton spirit could reach the Emperor Realm precisely because it swallowed this piece of Emperor Jade Bone." Fang Duanhe said with a smile.

"Senior, what is Emperor Jade Bone?" Liu Yiming asked curiously.

"It is a rare heaven-and-earth spiritual object that can help a peak Quasi-Emperor prove the Dao and become Emperor." As he spoke, Fang Duanhe casually tossed the bone to Liu Yiming, forming a good karmic connection: "This bone is useless to me, so I'll give it to you."

"Thank you, senior!" Liu Yiming hastily thanked him, holding the bluish-green bone with an eager gaze.

"The heaven-and-earth spiritual object for proving the Dao and becoming Emperor is now in hand!"

"What a good senior this is!"

"The feeling of effortless victory is truly great!"

Liu Yiming sighed with emotion inwardly.
