Chapter 547: Meeting the Ruthless Great Emperor

The process of selecting concubines was complex and long, especially this kind of universe-wide selection.

If it weren't for the Future Lord acting as a proxy for the review, this review alone would have taken who knows how many years.

But even so, after layers of selection, it still took three years.

The four Noble Consorts were the Purple Mansion Saintess, the God Clan Heavenly Maiden Shen Lan, the Ji Family's Ji Ziyue, and the Jiang Family's Jiang Tingting, because they all had special constitutions.

Except for the Purple Mansion Saintess, the other three women were all from royal or imperial clans.

Like the Yaochi Saintess, An Miaoyi, the Ziwei Star's Yi Qingwu, the Nine Li Dynasty's Princess Yue Ling, the Demon Emperor Palace's Qi Qi, and the Eternal Star Domain's Fan Xian were also selected, becoming either Concubines or Fair Ladies.

The Emperor took concubines, and the world celebrated.

Yin Qi also rarely enjoyed himself, lingering in the harem every day.

These women selected into the palace, even the lowest-ranking Selected Women, were all heavenly pride daughters when placed outside; regardless of cultivation, appearance, family background, or character, they were all top-tier choices.

Yin Qi was never stingy with his own women; all kinds of techniques and cultivation resources were available, and he also practiced dual cultivation with them day and night to help increase their cultivation.

Take the Purple Mansion Saintess for example; she was originally an Innate Dao Fetus, a top-tier heavenly pride.

Through dual cultivation with Yin Qi, in less than a year, she broke through from Saint to Great Saint, and her cultivation was very stable.

One must know that Yin Qi was now a Mysterious Immortal plus a peak Great Emperor; if it weren't for the *Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon* being truly too profound, they might have been unable to withstand the nourishment.

At the same time, the expansion speed of the *Immortal Court* was constantly accelerating, because with the refining of Emperor-grade cultivation crystals, the *Immortal Court* gave birth to one peak Quasi-Emperor powerhouse after another, and most of them joined the conquest army.

Looking at the unfamiliar peak Quasi-Emperors, the outside world collectively lost its voice, filled with horror.

They did not know how many trump cards Yin Qi still had.

Consequently, all parties became completely honest and no longer had the slightest bit of ulterior motives.

……

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred years had gone by.

In a hundred years, the *Immortal Court* finally unified the universe, expanding its sphere of influence to the edge of the universe.

In these hundred years, many major events occurred.

For example, Yan Ruyu, the Purple Mansion Saintess, and others successively passed the Great Emperor tribulation, actually walking ahead of the Golden Crow Quasi-Emperor, Gai Jiuyou, Ye Fan, and others, truly making the world drop their jaws.

In Yin Qi's harem, there were seven Empresses.

Although the other women had not yet passed the tribulation, they were all at least Quasi-Emperors, making countless people envious.

Consequently, a sentence circulated on the internet: No matter how good the talent, no matter how hard the cultivation, it is not as good as marrying the Emperor.

The reason why Yan Ruyu and the seven others were able to successively prove the Dao was because Yin Qi obtained the refining method for Tenth-Tier Evolution Liquid through the Fortune Altar, and then gathered the resources of the entire universe to refine seven furnaces.

……

Having been licentious for a hundred years, Yin Qi finally walked out of the Heavenly Palace.

Next, it was time to plan for the whole world to ascend.

He came to the Zhetian world to harvest fortune, so naturally, he had to unify the universe and the Immortal Domain; only then could he harvest the national fortune and the merit of education to the greatest extent.

But this universe and the Immortal Domain were separated, with only an Immortal Road occasionally connecting them, which was definitely not acceptable.

Therefore, he had to forge an Immortal Artifact to serve as a portal between the two worlds.

If he used the Fortune Altar, that would of course be a small matter, but Yin Qi needed to save fortune; anyway, there were still more than two hundred years until the Immortal Road opened, enough for him to forge this portal.

To forge a portal between two worlds, materials were needed first.

Yin Qi, through deduction, found the Bronze Immortal Tripod and the Desolate Tower in the Big Dipper Star Domain, then traveled far into the starry sky to find the Immortal Bell, and finally exchanged for the Immortal Tripod from the Black Emperor with an Emperor-grade flying saucer.

He used the Desolate Tower, the Immortal Bell, the Bronze Immortal Tripod, and the Immortal Tripod as the main materials, supplemented by forty-nine Emperor weapons, and after a hundred years of forging, finally refined a peerless Immortal Artifact—the Immortal Gate.

After the Immortal Gate was refined, there were still more than a hundred years until the Immortal Road opened.

Yin Qi either worked hard in the harem or traveled to various parts of the universe.

He went to the edge of the universe, saw the Undying Heavenly Blade and the stone egg in the desolate land, also discovered the Immortal Road that would soon appear on the Flying Immortal Star, and also saw a group of Pre-Qin Qi practitioners like Rong Chengshi who were self-sealed in chaotic soil, and so on.

This universe, for him, had no secrets left.

Even, he saw that this universe was covered with dense array patterns, which were quietly refining the entire universe in a subtle way; this was the handiwork of the Emperor Venerable.

He wanted to refine the universe for his own use and break through to an unprecedented realm.

In the original work, the Emperor Venerable's layout would not be completely finished until eighty thousand years later.

As for now, it had barely passed the halfway point.

Regarding this, Yin Qi pretended not to notice; now was not the time to force the Emperor Venerable out.

……

Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, another hundred-plus years passed.

Ye Fan, Pang Bo, Yin Tong, Gai Jiuyou, the Emperor Lord, and others successively proved the Dao and became Emperors, but none of them fused with the Heart of Heaven Imprint, so as not to cut off the path for future generations to prove the Dao.

Poor Golden Crow Quasi-Emperor, who originally could have proven the Dao at any time, but now simply did not dare.

Because there was a deep feud between the Golden Crow clan and Yin Qi.

It would be fine if he didn't prove the Dao; Yin Qi wouldn't pay attention to him.

But if he proved the Dao, that would be his death date.

He now hated that Golden Crow Great Saint to death; you were fine, why did you have to provoke Yin Qi, this god of slaughter.

……

It was also in these hundred years that Yin Qi finally had offspring.

Yan Ruyu gave birth to a son first, named Yin Hong, born extraordinary, with purple Qi coming from the east for thirty thousand *li* at birth.

Cultivating at five, Golden Core at ten, peak Nascent Soul at twenty-two, Earth Immortal at thirty, Heavenly Immortal at fifty, and he also passed the Great Emperor tribulation at the same time, proving the Dao and becoming an Emperor.

Such speed was simply cheating, truly interpreting what is called "my son has the qualifications of a Great Emperor."

Following Yin Hong, Yin Qi successively had three sons and five daughters, and each one had extraordinary talent; perhaps they could not compare to Yin Hong, but they were all top-tier heavenly prides, either Saint Bodies or Divine Bodies.

…………

"Is it finally coming?"

Heavenly Palace.

Yin Qi stood with his hands behind his back, looking toward the direction of the Flying Immortal Star, his gaze burning.

His eyes could not only pierce through endless space but also see into the depths of the void of the Flying Immortal Star, where an Immortal Road was extending from the Immortal Domain, and the entire universe was palpitating.

It was just a pity that only he could feel this palpitation.

……

Yin Qi traveled far into the depths of the universe, and on a desolate planet, found the bronze coffin pulled by nine dragons.

He entered the bronze coffin and opened the small coffin inside.

Chaotic mist flowed in this small coffin, immortal light overflowed, and it was extremely peaceful; it was actually a vast Immortal Domain.

This Immortal Domain was evolved by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, who wanted to complete the Immortal Domain.

But unfortunately, the bronze coffin could not enter the Immortal Domain and was left in the human world.

In this piece of Immortal Domain, there was also a Harmony Flower.

The Harmony Flower, one of the three strange flowers of Zhetian, was also the most magical and precious immortal treasure in the world, which could allow people to directly prove the Dao on the spot and achieve the status of Great Emperor.

This was originally prepared by the Ruthless Great Emperor for Ye Fan, but unfortunately, it was not used.

Since that was the case, then return it to the Ruthless Great Emperor.

So Yin Qi returned to the Big Dipper Star Domain, came to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, and found the Ruthless Great Emperor.

This was also his first time facing her directly.

There was no excitement as imagined, nor was there the expectation as imagined; there was only peace. ===== CHAPTER 548 =====
