Chapter 1524: Heroic Spirit (Second update, requesting everything)

At this moment, Li Zhangsheng's strength surged; his Demon Emperor Level demon pets could unleash their full power, and his Secret Realm, Mental Power, and physical strength all skyrocketed by a significant margin, which was quite despairing for his enemies.

After Li Zhangsheng ascended to the Imperial Throne, the order of the Nine Imperial Thrones on the highest tier changed, consisting of Li Zhangsheng, the Human Emperor, the Blood Emperor, the Martial Emperor, the Civil Emperor, the Thunder Emperor, the Azure Emperor, the Source Emperor (sealed), and Huonu Wang.

Soon, the title on Li Zhangsheng's Imperial Throne began to change; the character "Ten Thousand" in "Ten Thousand Sages" quickly vanished, and in the end, only the character "Sage" remained.

Sage Emperor!

Without a doubt, this was also an imperial title that had never appeared before.

In this way, the Heavenly Court officially possessed five emperors; in terms of quantity, momentum, and strength, it surpassed the Ancient Heavenly Court. After all, the Ancient Heavenly Court only occupied the Heavenly Realm, unlike Li Zhangsheng, who had almost unified the Heavenly Realm and the human world, and had even planted pieces in the Underworld in advance.

Before long, Ning Bizhen would also inevitably step onto the Mingtu; with her strength, unless the entire Underworld banded together, but how could that be easy?

The Underworld had always been known for its chaos, mired in war year-round, and was essentially a loose pile of sand; it was impossible for them to put aside their grudges. As long as Ning Bizhen was fast enough, she would definitely be able to defeat them one by one.

Once the Underworld was unified, Li Zhangsheng would officially become the Sovereign of the Three Realms, and it was unknown what kind of changes would occur then.

Li Zhangsheng's consciousness did not enter the Hall of Ten Thousand Kings. After successfully breaking through to the Imperial Throne, he carefully sensed his state; his Mental Power had, unsurprisingly, become more condensed and Pure, with a quantity several times greater than before the breakthrough. Furthermore, because it was more pure, the consumption of the same Secret Technique was also less than before.

At the same time, the recovery speed of his Mental Power had risen accordingly; this aspect had likely improved by more than tenfold. No wonder he felt as if an Emperor's Mental Power was inexhaustible.

This was merely the change in his Mental Power; Li Zhangsheng's physical strength had also increased by a notch, though because his body was already extremely strong, the magnitude was not very large.

After sensing the changes of an Emperor, Li Zhangsheng appeared in the Secret Realm, preparing to assist his demon pets in their breakthrough.

The difficulty coefficient for minor realm breakthroughs for Demon Emperor Level demon pets was even greater than before, which resulted in most of Li Zhangsheng's main demon pets being at the Demon Emperor 4th–5th Tier, still a good distance away from attempting to reach the Emperor Rank.

Under normal circumstances, it would take at least half a year for the demon pets to reach the Demon Emperor 9th Tier.

However, Li Zhangsheng had his own methods; to put it simply, it was Nine Heavens Clear Qi essence.

As the name suggests, Nine Heavens Clear Qi essence was an advanced version of Nine Heavens Clear Qi, specifically targeting Demon Emperor Level demon pets.

Like the Nine Heavens Clear Qi, the Nine Heavens Clear Qi essence was also considered a "chicken rib" in the Ancient Heavenly Court; therefore, even though the production was small, there were still quite a few stocks in the rings of the Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Empress.

Without hesitation, Li Zhangsheng summoned all 13 of his main demon pets and gave them appropriate amounts of Nine Heavens Clear Qi essence according to their realms, avoiding overfeeding them and causing negative effects.

Not long after, the demon pets were all on the verge of the Demon Emperor 9th Tier, and they then looked at Li Zhangsheng with expectant eyes, for they knew the main event was about to begin.

"Kailan, catch!"

Immediately, Li Zhangsheng handed the Innate Yi Wood Essence to Kailan to absorb.

The Innate Yi Wood Essence could not only allow Kailan's Elemental Power to reach perfection but also slightly increase the probability of breaking through to the Emperor Rank.

Kailan took the Innate Yi Wood Essence and couldn't wait to start absorbing it; ever since Li Zhangsheng obtained the Innate Yi Wood Essence, she had been looking forward to this day.

"Innate Wutu Essence, Superior Quality Chema Mushroom, Adai, it's up to you!"

Li Zhangsheng then handed the Innate Wutu Essence to Adai. Although Adai was not an elemental spirit, the Innate Wutu Essence could not only slightly increase the probability of breaking through to the Emperor Rank but also make the energy properties of Earth Element demon pets more pure, and provide a chance to comprehend the property changes of the Earth Element.

Not to mention the Superior Quality Chema Mushroom, which could cure illnesses, strengthen the body, prolong life, allow for Cloud-Treading, and slightly increase the probability of breaking through to the Emperor Rank.

With these two auxiliary breakthrough treasures, Adai's breakthrough probability was extremely high.

"Ginseng Fruit, Baitian!"

With the freakish nature of the Light-Dark Twin Symbiote, one Ginseng Fruit could be used as two; the two kittens could almost steadily step into the Emperor Rank, and their intelligence, comprehension, and Mental Power would surely skyrocket.

"Secondary Thunder Dao Crystal, Purple Firmament Qilin!"

"Secondary Metal Great Dao Crystal, Eight-Clawed Golden Dragon!"

"Secondary Wind Dao Crystal, Datou!"

"Secondary Ice Great Dao Crystal, Round-and-Round!"

"Water Great Dao Crystal, Four-Clawed Silver Dragon!"

Following the two kittens, Li Zhangsheng distributed the remaining Dao Crystals in one go.

As for why the only genuine Water Great Dao Crystal was given to the Four-Clawed Silver Dragon instead of the Eight-Clawed Golden Dragon, Datou, or the Four-Clawed Yellow Dragon, it was mainly because once the Four-Clawed Silver Dragon broke through to the Emperor Rank, combat power was one thing, but it could also significantly strengthen the effect of the Time Delay Forbidden Array.

By that time, Ning Bizhen's cultivation speed would skyrocket several times over, and it probably wouldn't be long before she could attempt a breakthrough.

In this way, only the Secondary Light Dao Crystal, Secondary Dark Dao Crystal, one Nine-Turn Golden Pill, and one Ginseng Fruit remained.

Among them, Li Zhangsheng decided to use only the Nine-Turn Golden Pill, leaving everything else for Ning Bizhen.

Before Ning Bizhen became an Emperor, Li Zhangsheng would also try his best to collect treasures that assisted in breaking through to the Emperor Rank during this period; he believed that with the rich assets of the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan's Sea Eye, there should be some gains.

As his Life-Bound Demon Pet, the Nine-Turn Golden Pill was naturally given to Aixi to absorb.

A total of ten demon pets were attempting to break through; the only ones left were the Phoenix, the Five-Colored Dragon God, and the Four-Clawed Yellow Dragon, who looked at Li Zhangsheng pitifully.

"I'll give them to you when there are resources; you should try to break through on your own for now."

Li Zhangsheng shrugged, indicating he was unable to help; the resources were only so much in total, and it was already quite exaggerated, but in the end, he still couldn't take care of all the demon pets.

The three demon pets looked at each other, and one could see the helplessness in each other's eyes; they had no choice but to prepare to attempt the breakthrough with a sense of luck.

While the main demon pets were breaking through, Li Zhangsheng summoned the Myriad Manifestation Spirit-Devouring Rat, the Chongming Bird, and the Hundred-Headed Dragon; they were also Demon Emperor Level demon pets.

Just like before, the three Temporary Spirit Pets absorbed the Nine Heavens Clear Qi essence to reach the Demon Emperor 9th Tier.

However, before the breakthrough, Li Zhangsheng placed fifteen jars of Spirit Essence in front of the Myriad Manifestation Spirit-Devouring Rat.

These were all Heaven-Devouring Rat Spirit Essence, enough to allow the Myriad Manifestation Spirit-Devouring Rat to complete its evolution, which could more or less increase the probability of breaking through to the Emperor Rank by a little bit.

However, Li Zhangsheng still held a pessimistic attitude toward the Myriad Manifestation Spirit-Devouring Rat and the Chongming Bird; after all, neither was of Legendary Quality, so the breakthrough probability was negligible.

On the contrary, one could place high hopes on the Hundred-Headed Dragon; it was a Unique Divine Beast after all, and even if it had an extra "Pseudo" prefix, it would still have some effect, not to mention that the Hundred-Headed Dragon was of Legendary Quality.

PS: Versatile book friends, are there any missed breakthrough resources?
