Imperial God Emperor 1179 - Rest assured Elder

Chapter 1179, Rest assured Elder
After careful consideration, Ye Qingyu in the end did not try to break through to the Martial Emperor realmin the Immortal Domain.
He gave up the temptation of becoming Emperor.
Because this place was, after all a fragment of the Immortal world, and not the real world, while he was a person of the real world. Thus he was unsure whether he would drop back to the Quasi-emperor realm once he returns to the real world if he were to break through to the Martial Emperor realm here because of different laws. That would be even more troublesome.
“It's almost been two months, the battle on Azure Cloud Platform is near. I can only stay here for less than ten days.”
Ye Qingyu calculated the time.
Each person trains at the Immortal Domain for different lengths of time, and because Ye Qingyu entered through the referral of the sovereign of the Sun clan, he could stay in the Immortal Domain for up to three months. There wasn't much time left now.
“Although it’s not possible to break directly into the real Emperor realm, I could in this space explore the true power of the [Cloud Top Cauldron], [Blood Drinker Sword], and other weapons. Through further refining and strengthening, their power can be increased several times.”
Ye Qingyu summoned the [Cloud Top Cauldron].
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
As though it sensed the profound meaning of heaven and earth in the Immortal Domain, the cauldron began to shake, and eventually emitted a glimmer of thought, before it turned into a stream of light and flew off into the distance.
Ye Qingyu immediately understood its will.
The [Cloud Top Cauldron] had long developed its consciousness, but it was just that it was extremely obscure before. However, the will that was released during that moment was very clear, it intended to absorb the power of heaven and earth in the Immortal Domain to evolve.
This saved Ye Qingyu a lot of effort.
Shortly after, Ye Qingyu found a place where the underground fire was exceptionally strong. With the help of the underground fire of the Immortal Domain, he continued to refine the [Blood Drinker Sword]. Ye Qingyu was ready to take this sword as his Emperor life weapon, after all, it was a weapon that he created himself, unlike the [Cloud Top Cauldron] and [Formless Armor of Shifting Clouds], which although marvelous, were not built by his own hands and were difficult to work with his own ways.
Especially since Ye Qingyu had now reached the critical moment to take that important step. Every Martial Emperor, once they achieved the Dao, would have their own Emperor life weapon.
Ye Qingyu intended to make [Blood Drinker Sword]] his Emperor life weapon.
The underground fire in the Immortal Domain was the flame of the Immortal world, which was several times more powerful than that in the Vast Thousand Domains and Dark Realm, almost if composed of the law of flame and not fire elements.
Ye Qingyu took out the [Blood Drinker Sword Pill], which was still an incomparably huge sword body as before, and directly threw it into the raging flames.
The law of fire blazed, curling around the body of the sword.
Ye Qingyu observed for a moment, until he was certain that the body of the [Blood Drinker Sword] was able to bear the law of fire in the Immortal Domain. At the same time, he gained a little more confidence in the [Blood Drinker Sword] becoming refined and strengthened into an Emperor life weapon.
He drew a deep breath, and then sat cross-legged in the void.
In his eyes, divine light sharply increased, as he performed the hand seal of the fire control technique of the one hundred eight ancient characters, controlling the flame law to constantly refined the [Blood Drinker Sword].
This process looked as though it had been practiced hundreds and thousands of times already.
Today, not only did Ye Qingyu's cultivation base increased significantly and was only one step away from achieving the position of Martial Emperor, in alchemy, fire control, weapon casting, he could also be called a great master of the world. Even though he had not casted or refined an ultimate Emperor weapon before, the whole process was skillful and without much hesitation, like flowing water.
Approximately one day later.
The [Blood Drinker Sword], whose sword body was originally as large as a door, had its various impurities constantly eliminated by the fire, despite the composition of the [Blood Drinker Sword] being divine materials of the present age. Eventually the entire sword body was only two meters long and half a meter wide, almost reduced in size by one-tenth.
Ye Qingyu, while refining the [Blood Drinker Sword], constantly inserted formation markings into the sword body.
These formation marks were the result of his many enlightenments. The transformation into formations and constantly hammered into the sword body of the [Blood Drinker Sword] was an integration process between the human and the weapon. This was the reason why it was called an Emperor life weapon.
Each and every one of the hand seals and formation markings, at the beginning were the secret technique of the one hundred eight ancient characters, but later were completely different. Each hand seal and formation symbol was developed from Ye Qingyu's understanding and experience and born out of the one hundred eight ancient characters, pill mantra and other secret techniques.
At the end, Ye Qingyu's imposing manner was sublimated, and as he continued to form hand seals, his state was also adjusted to the peak.
Weapon refining was originally a kind of martial arts cultivation.
Time passed by.
Layers of imperial mist were flowing out from Ye Qingyu's body.
Even the [Formless Armor of Shifting Clouds] couldn’t cover the true face of Ye Qingyu. Zhang Longcheng's appearance had faded, revealing Ye Qingyu's true face, his sword-like brows, bright eyes, plump cheeks, heroic spirit and muscular and sharp facial structure, like a jade statue. His young face was full of a charm that could overturn the world.
A number of strange formation markings, which were completely different from the world, were flowing out from the hands of Ye Qingyu, constantly inserted into the body of [Blood Drinker Sword] that was floating above the underground fire of the Immortal Domain.
Clang!
It looked as though an invisible hammer was constantly beating the [Blood Drinker Sword], producing a melodious clattering sound, and accompanied by sputtering of sparks. There were impurities in the [Blood Drinker Sword] which were being constantly removed.
The sword body of the [Blood Drinker Sword] was also constantly shrinking.
The material was increasingly sparkling and bright, strikingly scarlet red, like the most dazzling red between heaven and earth. This was its truest colour, flawlessly pure, resembling the blood of god flowing around.
Such a process continued in a constant manner.
During this, Ye Qingyu paused a few times, repeatedly analyzing and observing the state of the [Blood Drinker Sword]. He was very careful. In the process of refinement, there were a few times when Ye Qingyu almost touched the last barrier of becoming Emperor, almost advanced into the Martial Emperor realm, and had to stop.
The process of weapon refinement continued for several days.
The body of the [Blood Drinker Sword] became smaller and smaller.
In the end, it became similar size to a normal sabre.
Ye Qingyu still did not stop, and continued to inject countless formation markings into the sword.
By the time the [Blood Drinker Sword] was truly completed, it will contain Ye Qingyu's understanding of formation martial arts, contain the will and understanding of the Dao of Ye Qingyu. This was equivalent to casting all of Ye Qingyu's knowledge and what he had learned in his life into the body of the [Blood Drinker Sword]. It was only in this way that an object and a human could integrate perfectly, and for it to become an Emperor life treasure.
In the blink of an eye, time flew by.
This day, Ye Qingyu suddenly snapped open his eyes.
He felt a repelling force between heaven and earth, which meant that the deadline for this training was over, and it was time to leave.
He gave a wave of his hand.
The long sword that was four fingers wide and 1.6 meters long including the hilt fell into his hands.
At this moment, the [Blood Drinker Sword] was still in an incomplete state. Ye Qingyu vaguely realized that a real Emperor weapon cannot be created through just refinement. There was the need for an opportunity. As the [Blood Drinker Sword] fell into his hand, there was a very strange feeling as though it was fusing with his body. The sword was emitting a bright brilliance, and with a casual slash, the void was split before the blade, like cutting butter with a hot knife.
Based on the sharpness, one slash of the sword was enough to break the defense of a Quasi-emperor.
After this refinement, the [Blood Drinker Sword] had been completely elevated to a new level.
“It's time to leave.”
Ye Qingyu tried to summon back the [Cloud Top Cauldron].
A stream of light streaked across the air.
The [Cloud Top Cauldron] emerged, shrouded in mysterious bronze mist and light. It had also undergone great changes. The ancestor patterns had become incredibly clear, vivid and lifelike, and were no longer as blurry as before.
As expected, the [Cloud Top Cauldron] had also undergone great changes.
It released a wisp of consciousness, and Ye Qingyu was immediately well aware of its changes.
“At this point, even when facing King Zhenyuan, I can kill him with just a sword.”
Ye Qingyu was full of confidence.
Since, under the Martial Emperor, there was absolutely no one that could win against him.
The repelling force in the Immortal Domain was becoming more and more intense.
Ye Qingyu did not resist, but set foot on the road he came from and directly headed out of the Immortal Domain. The opportunity here had come to an end. He cannot absorb all the power in this world, but to leave it for the fateful people of future generations.
The aura of the [Formless Armor of Shifting Clouds] surged, wrapping around Ye Qingyu fully. His facial muscles and bones were moving like flowing water as it took on the appearance of Zhang Longcheng again. Given Ye Qingyu's present cultivation base, he no longer needed any secret technique to change his face, and even Martial Emperors would no longer be able to perceive his true identity.
……
……
Guardian Royal City.
During this period of time there were all kinds of rumours.
Everyone knew that it has been a full two months since [Military Judge of the Nine Swords] Zhang Longcheng went into training in the Immortal Domain. Seeing that the deadline was almost up, they all wanted to understand what sort of opportunity Zhang Longcheng obtained in the Immortal Domain, and whether he had the capital to battle against King Zhengyuan.
And regarding the Sun clan's big gamble, the great aristocratic forces in the city all had mixed opinions. However, the majority believed that the final struggle of the Sun clan before sunset was doomed to fail. They had placed all hope on an outsider with no foundation. Even if Zhang Longcheng were to defeat King Zhenyuan, it was still impossible for him to become the backbone of the Sun clan.
Rumble!
The sky gate opened.
Thunder and lightning of chaos curled up as a figure came out of the sky gate.
It was Ye Qingyu.
Waiting outside the sky gate, the aristocrats of the Sun clan, led by Chief Commander Sun Yi, turned their heads toward Ye Qingyu right away. They wanted to know whether this outsider, who they have placed all of their hopes on, has transformed from a cocoon into a butterfly in the Immortal Domain to the extent they expect.
The lightning and thunder of chaos dissipated.
The immortal gate closed again.
Ye Qingyu came to stand before the crowd.
“Chief Commander Sun Yi, everyone, thank you for your trouble.” Ye Qingyu gave a cupped fist salute.
The Sun clan this time had really invested a lot. It appeared as though they were here to welcome Ye Qingyu, but in fact came to protect the safety of Ye Qingyu, afraid that the super forces in the city would attack and kill Ye Qingyu the moment he stepped out of the Immortal Domain, thereby destroying the Sun clan’s hope.
Ye Qingyu could even clearly perceive the presence of the Sun clan's sovereign. It was clear that they were worried that the sovereign-level existences in the city had the intention to kill Ye Qingyu.
“Military Judge Zhang Longcheng, Old ancestor asks you to please come to the Sun clan's ancestral house until the Azure Cloud Platform opens.” Chief Commander Sun Yi found that he could no longer see the depths of Ye Qingyu, because it appeared that the aura of Zhang Longcheng was about the same as it was before he entered the Immortal Domain. There was no apparent significant growth; however, he dared not to speculate too much and immediately came forward to invite him with a smile on his face.
Ye Qingyu nodded, “Okay.”
He did not refuse.
Because in addition to the aura of the Sun clan's sovereign, he also sensed a number of sovereign-level martial arts aura sweeping past the sky gate and over his position. It was evident that powerful and influential people were secretly observing his state in order to determine whether he had made a real harvest in the Immortal Domain. Among these, there was also the aura of the sovereign of the Sky Fox clan.
Without the slightest doubt, Ye Qingyu knew that if these high and mighty sovereigns felt a threat, they might attack right away and kill him here without waiting until the battle on the Azure Cloud Platform.
Fortunately, Ye Qingyu had long been prepared for this. Before he came out, he had used the power of the [Formless Armor of Shifting Clouds] and [Cloud Top Cauldron] to suppress his aura. As a result, the cultivation base he showed was almost no different to what it was before entering the Immortal Domain. Therefore, the several different auras also, after a brief observation, all vanished.
“A total of six different auras... in other words, there are at least six sovereigns in Royal City, which means that there are six Martial Emperors... but their aura is very bizarre, erratic and not at their peak.”
Ye Qingyu sensed some information.
In the end, under the escort of the Sun clan, he returned safely to the ancestral house of the Sun clan.
“How's the harvest?” the ancient voice of the sovereign of the Sun clan sounded.
He stared at Ye Qingyu and took the initiative to ask. In truth, the first moment he saw Ye Qingyu, there was an icy cold feeling that came to his heart, because he found that despite two months of training in the Immortal Domain, Ye Qingyu's cultivation base and aura showed limited growth from what it was before.
Even for someone with his status and experience, at this time he also couldn’t help but feel a little apprehensive. After all, such a huge gamble was related to the future fate of the entire clan.
“Rest assured, elder.”
Ye Qingyu's answer was very simple.
The sovereign was taken aback for a moment, and immediately realized the meaning of these words. A relieved smile spread across his old face, and then his face lit up with joy.
He realized that it was because Ye Qingyu was deliberately suppressing his aura that he misunderstood. Moreover, since Ye Qingyu was able to affect his perception ability it was enough to show that he had made great terrifying harvest in the Immortal Domain, and very likely to have stepped into that realm.
At the same time, there were very different news circulating in the outside world.
“Zhang Longcheng has gained nothing in the Immortal Domain, and it can be ascertained that the Sun clan has wasted their place...” A great aristocrat of the Sky Fox clan directly and clearly released these words out, “In the battle on the Azure Cloud Platform Zhang Longcheng will die no doubt.”
