Translation:
"Have you all seized the inheritance?"
Upon the Ark of the Law in the beginning, Yin Hong looked at those damaged cave heavens and geniuses, unable to resist asking.
To this, everyone shook their heads calmly.
Hearing this, Yin Hong nodded as well, "So it seems that the biggest winner in entering the sacred realm this time is the Hongwu Dynasty."
"The newly risen Emperor's power is indeed strong. However, it's not easy for the Hongwu Dynasty to produce another emperor in this world."
It was quite normal for the Tai Chu Cave Heaven not to obtain the inheritance of the sage.
After all, the Hongwu Dynasty's actions this time were arrogant, killing geniuses from various cave heavens and seizing their sacred treasures, with only the Tai Chu Cave Heaven spared.
For the Tai Chu Cave Heaven, obtaining the inheritance of the sage was not important.
This time entering the realm was only to let everyone experience some trials and appreciate the dangers of the hegemony of the heavens.
As long as Zhang Ming, the Saint of Battle, remained intact, everything would be fine.
Zhang Ming listened to Yin Hong's words in silence.
Since the Hongwu Dynasty was willing to take the blame, he naturally agreed.
With the overbearing style of the Hongwu Dynasty, even if they knew they were being blamed, they probably wouldn't publicize it widely.
Otherwise, wouldn't it contradict the actions of Jiang Qingyong earlier, like hitting their own face?
On the other side, Yin Hong found that Zhang Ming had made a breakthrough in his cultivation, already advancing to the late stage of the True Human realm, showing great satisfaction on his face.
Obviously, although the Tai Chu Cave Heaven did not obtain the inheritance of the sage, they also benefited greatly from it.
When Zhang Ming entered the realm, he was only in the early stage of the True Human realm. Now he had come out as a late-stage practitioner. Even for the Saint of Battle, reaching this realm would require at least ten years of hard work.
Ten years might not mean much to ordinary True Humans, but for top geniuses, it could change a lot.
...
In the golden war chariot, Jiang Qingyong's smile remained undiminished, but the prince's face darkened.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Qingyong curiously asked, "I saw that the prince got the inheritance of the Sage of Shenxiao and killed the geniuses of various cave heavens to seize their sacred treasures. Why does it seem that you are not very happy?"
The prince's face became even more unsightly, and it was a long time before he slowly said, "General, you misunderstood. I did not obtain the inheritance of the Sage of Shenxiao, nor did the sacred treasures fall into my hands."
At these words, Jiang Qingyong's smile froze instantly. What does this mean? The prince himself got nothing?
Jiang Qingyong found it difficult to accept such a situation.
The prince took a deep breath and recounted what happened in the realm.
After listening, Jiang Qingyong immediately sorted out his thoughts and roughly understood what had happened.
"Tai Chu Cave Heaven is really good. I thought it was declining, but I didn't expect it to hide so deeply."
"It seems that these old forces that can survive from ancient times to the present are not simple characters. This matter, our Hongwu Dynasty has been calculated."
Jiang Qingyong's face looked ugly, but soon returned to normal.
"Hehe... This is interesting. The golden age is about to begin, and who will dominate the world? The prince is the pride of our Hongwu Dynasty and will prove to be the emperor in this life."
"Since ancient times, no cave heaven, including the Sacred Land Dynasty, has been able to produce two emperors in succession, but our Hongwu Dynasty wants to do what predecessors could not."
"Even if we temporarily lose to Tai Chu Cave Heaven, one day the prince will go to Tai Chu Cave Heaven to regain face."
The struggle of the Dao has both winning and losing. Jiang Qingyong thought that losing once was not a big deal.
Since he was willing to take the blame for Tai Chu Cave Heaven, he would naturally find a way to regain face from Tai Chu Cave Heaven in the future.
As for whether the inheritance of the sage was possibly not obtained by Tai Chu Cave Heaven, and whether the sacred treasures of other cave heavens and sacred places fell into the hands of others, Jiang Qingyong believed that these were completely impossible.
"We still need to investigate which other geniuses allied with Tai Chu Cave Heaven."
After saying this, he added.
Upon hearing this, the prince's complexion eased slightly, but the gloom in his eyes did not dissipate.
"When the day comes, I will go to Tai Chu Cave Heaven myself to settle today's cause and effect."
As a prince of the dynasty, holding the items of the quasi-emperor and being chased and escaped by a few people, this was a great humiliation to him.
As Jiang Qingyong said, when he had the opportunity in the future, he must find a way to regain this situation.
...
The competition for the secret realm of the Sage came to an end, and Lu Qingyang also simultaneously obtained the inheritance of the Sage of Shenxiao.
A seventh-order superior technique, which even Lu Qingyang had never possessed.
Now, among the techniques that came from the offering, apart from the techniques of the Sage, the strongest was only at the level of the fifth-order True Human.
Not even a technique at the sixth-order True Monarch level.
When truly comprehending the True Technique of Shenxiao, Lu Qingyang understood the subtleties of the sage's technique.
The Sage has ten turns! The first three turns are equivalent to the early stage of the seventh order.
The middle three turns are equivalent to the middle stage of the seventh order.
The latter three turns are the late stage of the seventh order.
As for the final tenth turn of the Sage, it can already reach the complete stage of the seventh order.
Although the Sage of Shenxiao is only a ninth-order Sage, his creation of the superior True Technique of Shenxiao is enough to show that he is only one step away from the tenth turn of the Sage.
In other words, this is a top genius who can prove to be a quasi-emperor.
"To create the True Technique of Shenxiao by one's own comprehension, and to step by step reach the ninth-order Sage as a mortal body, this Sage of Shenxiao is truly talented. If he had not fallen into the hands of the Hongwu Emperor, he might not have lost hope of achieving enlightenment."
From the True Technique of Shenxiao, Lu Qingyang glimpsed the power of the Sage of Shenxiao.
However, achieving enlightenment is not an easy task.
Even if the Sage of Shenxiao cannot achieve enlightenment, proving to be a quasi-emperor is an ironclad matter.
In the current situation where the peak is the ninth order, being able to step into the eighth-order quasi-emperor level is enough to prove his potential talent.
Unfortunately, the genius who fell still does not count as a true genius.
Compared with the Hongwu Emperor, the Sage of Shenxiao lacked a chance, otherwise he would not have fallen into the ninth-order Sage when he was nine.
After a long time of comprehending the True Technique of Shenxiao, Lu Qingyang also had some different insights in his heart.
The gathering of spiritual energy of heaven and earth, looking at the data panel again, the evolution value has quietly increased.
"It seems that comprehending the superior technique is also somewhat useful for my own cultivation, although the effect is not great, it's better than nothing."
