Chapter 310: Peak Of The Martial Saint Realm
In the Holy Beast Continent, Ye Xiao had gotten his hands on the Blood Vermillion Fruit and the Water Spirit Herb. He planted these two herbs on the Second Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda.
There, not only these two medicinal herbs evolved to the next tier, but they also had been multiplied.
Now, there were many Blood Vermillion Fruit and the Water Spirit Herb on the Second Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda.
To Ye Xiao, there was no lack of resources. He can easily cultivate to the peak of the Martial Saint Realm with those Blood Vermillion Fruit and the Water Spirit Herb, and he even has the chance to further make a breakthrough, becoming an immortal.
But becoming an immortal was still far away. He decided to continue cultivating till he reaches the Peak of the Martial Saint Realm before going out.
He also has to meet Zhao Yufei and maybe Zhao Qing'er also.
Inside the destroyed secret realm, when Ye Xiao obtained the inheritance of the True knight Jia Wufeng, he had also gotten his hands on five High-Grade Mystical Rank Weapons. Two of them were given to the Su Family by Ye Xiao. He still has the remaining three mystical weapons.
Ye Xiao decided to give one to Zhao Yufei while another one to Zhao Qing'er. As for the last mystical weapon, he decided to give someone who is worthy to hold a mystical weapon in their hand.
.....
After breaking through to the Fourth Stage of the Martial Saint Realm, Ye Xiao went out, gave a few hundred Middle-Grade Spirit Stones to the inn owner, and extended the time period to stay in the inn. Then he returned to his room and entered seclusion on the first floor of the Nine Story Pagoda.
This time, Ye Xiao took out the half-step immortal grade Blood Vermillion Fruit and swallowed it. He started to cultivate again.
Time continued to pass. Seconds went by and became minutes while minutes went by and became hours. The same happened with hours and just like this, days after days continue to pass.
Soon, six months passed.
Ye Xiao still did not come out from his seclusion. He was still cultivating inside the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda.
Anyway, there was nothing for him to do outside. He was almost invincible not only in the Azure Sky Continent but also in each and every Continent of the Lower Realm.
He felt bored and so he planned to raise his cultivation, become an immortal, and ascend to the Upper Realm. For now, there was nothing for him to do in the Lower Realm.
Another six months passed and on this day, Ye Xiao came out from his seclusion. There was no fluctuation of air surrounding him. Right now, he looked more like an ordinary human without any cultivation base than a cultivator.
Ye Xiao then exited the Heavenly Pearl and appeared inside the room. After one year of cultivation, not only had he advanced to the Ninth Stage of the Martial Saint Realm, he also reached the peak of the Ninth Stage. Now, as long as he evolved his dantian into a small world, he can become an Immortal.
Not only he reached the Peak Ninth Stage of the Martial Saint Realm, but he had also cultivated the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique to the peak.
He just has to merge with the Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon and he can start to cultivate the Fourth Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
After cultivating the Third Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique to its perfection, Ye Xiao gained other abilities of the Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon.
Now, as long as he wants, he can poison anyone without letting them know that they have been poison. What is more, he can not turn his opponent's blood into poisonous blood. He also gained knowledge of thousands of types of poisons. The most shocking thing was that he can create those poisons with only his draconic energy as long as he merges with the Celestial Poison Imperial Dragon.
Ye Xiao spent one year inside the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda while outside, it's only been four months. By cultivating on the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda, Ye Xiao has saved eight months of time.
After coming out of the Heavenly Pearl, Ye Xiao went to take a bath. After that, he walked out of his room, settled his account with the inn owner, and left for the Imperial City of the Grand Xia Empire.
But just as he was about to cross the Azure Dragon Country, he suddenly thought of something and muttered in low voice, "Let's settle the old grudge first before going to the Grand Xia Empire."
"Woosh!"
Ye Xiao vanished from the place he was standing and only ten minutes later, he was standing in front of the Silver moon Sect.
He did not stay there for long. Just after one minute, Ye Xiao left and appeared in front of the Black Blade Sect. This time, he stayed there even less than a minute before leaving.
Not long after, Ye Xiao appeared in front of the Zhang Family of the Lin Star City. Without stopping for long, he once again left.
Only two hours later did people of the Zhang Family found out that their family's elders and patriarch were dead, and the same goes for the people of the Silver Moon Sect and the Black Blade Sect.
Only sometime later did they find out that some of the upper echelons of their corresponding sect died somehow and the cause of their death was unknown. Even after searching and investing for a very long time, they failed to find out who killed them or how they died.
Ye Xiao did not kill innocent people. He only killed those who took part in the murder of Fifth Elder Ye Fan. As for why he killed the Zhang family's patriarch and elders, when he just arrived at the Lin Star City and took part in the auction here, they tried to ambush him for his treasures and spirit stones.
At that time, he swore that one day he will return and the Zhang Family will pay the price for their doings.
.....
After taking his revenge, Ye Xiao once again arrived at the Azure Dragon Country, met with his friends such as Wen Xiang and others. He gave them some of the Fifth Grade Medicinal Herbs and thousands of Middle-Grade Spirit Stones before leaving the Azure Dragon Country, never to come back again.
A few days later, he arrived at the Imperial City of the Grand Xia Empire and went straight to the Imperial Palace.
With his current strength, he could have directly entered the Imperial Palace before ordering them to call Zhao Yufei and Zhao Qing'er but he did not do so.
"Halt!"
Just as he arrived in front of the Imperial Palace, two guards stopped him. One of them shouted at him, telling him to stop.
Ye Xiao stopped and looked at the guards. One of the guards said, "Don't you know this is the Imperial Palace and without permission, no one is allowed to enter the Imperial Palace."
"I know this is the Imperial Palace. I am here to meet Zhao Yufei. I am her friend. Can you inform her that Ye Xiao has come to meet her?" Ye Xiao said.
Both the guards were surprised when they heard Ye Xiao. They looked at him curiously for a few minutes before a disdainful expression appeared on their faces. They did not believe Ye Xiao's words because Ye Xiao looked too simple. He did not even look like a cultivator. How can such a person be their princess' friend?
Ye Xiao sighed when he saw their expression. He knew this was going to happen.
At this time, the guard said, "Hurry up and go. Don't waste our time otherwise..."
Ye Xiao did not say anything. He just exerted his aura and the two guards immediately kneeled down on the ground with a loud 'thud' sound.
Ye Xiao's slightest of aura was enough to force them to kneel, frightening them to the extent where they began to tremble and did not even dare to raise their head in front of Ye Xiao.
When Ye Xiao's aura burst out, the two of them felt as if they were standing in front of a giant dragon. They were as big as an ant in front of that dragon, and the terrifying thing was that the dragon was closing to them while opening its mouth wide as if it wanted to swallow them whole.
Of course, this was just an illusion created by Ye Xiao's aura.
"Now, can you go and inform Zhao Yufei that Ye Xiao has come to meet her?" Seeing the guards trembling non-stop, Ye Xiao asked without any expression on his face.
"Yes, yes! We are going." saying that, one of the guards immediately ran inside the Imperial palace while the other one stood up with the permission of Ye Xiao.
