80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled - Chapter 228

Chapter 228: Lord Nine

Looking at the majestic imperial city walls…

Lin Jiufeng saw that the common people, merchants, and cultivators coming and going had smiles on their faces. Their faces were rosy. Under the management of the Yuhua God Dynasty, they could eat their fill and have a chance to stand out and develop their talents. They could see hope for a better life, so everyone walked with confidence.

Lin Jiufeng looked at them and his mood improved.

This was the reason why he had always been silently protecting the Yuhua God Dynasty.

Now, he was already standing at the peak of the mortal realm. Next, he could still protect the Yuhua God Dynasty.

“Even the common people have started cultivating now.” The white cat laid on Lin Jiufeng’s shoulder and watched in surprise.

Although these commoners were old and had no future in cultivation, they still began to practice some martial arts to strengthen their bodies.

Lin Jiufeng walked into the imperial capital and walked along the streets. What he heard and saw made him understand why.

“The Martial Temple compiled a martial arts manual. The martial arts recorded inside are all ordinary, but they are cultivation techniques that trace back to the source and can establish a solid foundation. It consists of the fist and leg techniques. It’s printed for free and all the common people could read it.”

“Every place with a martial temple will have such free martial arts manuals. As long as the common people come, they can read this manual and cultivate through it. After developing the wisdom of the people, Emperor De opened the path of cultivation for the people of the world.”

“Not bad.” Lin Jiufeng was very satisfied with Emperor De. Emperor De had always followed the ideals of Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming without stopping.

Let the people become richer, let the people cultivate, and let the people stand up.

Only then would the Yuhua God Dynasty forever exist in their hearts. Even if the Yuhua God Dynasty was really destroyed in the future, this period of time would still be a brilliant piece of history.

“Emperor De did well,” the white cat praised.

Lin Jiufeng smiled and walked happily in the imperial capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty. He was like an ordinary person. No one noticed him, not even when he walked past others. This was because Lin Jiufeng isolated himself from the world.

Lin Jiufeng didn’t want the people of the world to know about him. All the people of the world needed to know was that the Yuhua God Dynasty’s glory today was founded by Emperor Yuan, Emperor Ming, and Emperor De after three generations of emperors working hard and building their foundation step by step, withstanding the difficulties and dangers.

As for Lin Jiufeng, he was just an insignificant outsider.

Walking around the imperial capital, Lin Jiufeng arrived at the Cold Palace.

In the constantly expanding imperial capital, amidst the imperial capital with its constant renovations, and the imperial capital with its high-level construction, such a crumbling palace unreasonably occupied a huge area.

The common people walked past it, but they didn’t even look at it. All of this was thanks to the [Light of the Homes].

In a corner of the Cold Palace’s door hung the [Light of the Homes]. It flickered slightly. After all these years, it had never extinguished and was hiding the Cold Palace with its power.

Lin Jiufeng walked to the door of the Cold Palace and looked up at the [Light of the Homes] with a calm expression.

[Light of the Homes] swayed slightly. The flames danced as they welcomed Lin Jiufeng’s return.

“Over the years, how many human ideals and the scent of life from the common people have you absorbed?” Lin Jiufeng asked.

The jumping flames of [Light of the Homes] suddenly became larger. The raging flames burned, actually burning the space until it broke, revealing an extremely terrifying black hole.

[Light of the Homes] was in the black hole, still burning leisurely.

Its might was immeasurable and unpredictable.

Even Lin Jiufeng couldn’t control it.

In short, it was very powerful.

“The Yuhua God Dynasty is becoming more and more prosperous, so you are absorbing these ideals and scent of life faster and faster. The scent of the Mortal Realm is the best nutrients for you,” Lin Jiufeng said with a smile.

[Light of the Homes] converged all the light and returned to its original state, hanging in a corner of the eaves of the Cold Palace’s main door.

As for the space that was burnt by it, it healed with difficulty. The black hole wanted to surge out, but it was afraid of the [Light of the Homes] and didn’t dare to appear.

Creak!

Lin Jiufeng pushed open the door of the Cold Palace that had been sealed for a long time, letting out a decaying sound.

This was once the most prestigious gate of the Cold Palace, but it became extremely fragile in front of the passing of time.

Pushing the door open, the Cold Palace was already overgrown with weeds. Vines entangled the houses, and the houses that hadn’t collapsed were fixed in place by the vines.

In a big city like the imperial capital, this place was like a small forest with plants growing frantically.

Fortunately, with the [Light of the Homes] guarding them, they didn’t spread outside.

“It has a different sense of wildness to it!” The white cat jumped down and stepped on a green poisonous snake to death as she said slowly.

“Let’s clean up a room and stay here,” Lin Jiufeng said.

“Not going out anymore?” The white cat looked at Lin Jiufeng in surprise.

She thought that they would only come back to take a look.

After that, Lin Jiufeng would still be leaving this place and go travel the world.

But she didn’t expect Lin Jiufeng to actually want to stay here.

“I’ve only just broken through, so let’s stay for a period of time. I need to stabilize for a few months. In the next six months to a year, we will stay here,” Lin Jiufeng said.

“The forgotten world that appeared in the monster race that Miss Hong mentioned, aren’t you going to take a look?” The white cat asked.

“I won’t go for now. I’ll go after I’ve stabilized my realm,” Lin Jiufeng said.

He looked towards the direction of the Hundred Thousand Mountains where the monster race was. His gaze was faint. “In the short term, there won’t be any major problems in that forgotten world.”

“I’ll listen to you.” The white cat didn’t care. As long as she followed Lin Jiufeng, it didn’t matter where she lived.

Moreover, she was familiar with this Cold Palace. She had lived here for hundreds of years.

Lin Jiufeng swiftly tidied up a courtyard that looked relatively sturdy. He cleaned it thoroughly and invited some of the ‘guests’ inside out. Then, he and the little white cat stayed here.

Returning to the familiar Cold Palace, Lin Jiufeng closed his eyes and began to stabilize his cultivation base.

Lying on the bed, his glabella flickered. A small person jumped out. It was Lin Jiufeng’s Primordial Spirit. It looked at the sky with a heavy heart.

“The False Immortal Realm. Cultivating in this realm seems to be a little difficult. I constantly feel like both the heaven and earth are about to strike me down,” Lin Jiufeng muttered.

This was also the reason why Lin Jiufeng needed to settle down and stop pursuing signing in.

His Primordial Spirit was constantly being threatened by the heavens.

It felt like a blade was hanging above his head, ready to strike at any moment.

“I have to find out how a False Immortal cultivator cultivates.” Lin Jiufeng pondered.

After he stabilized his cultivation and Primordial Spirit, he would go and look for more information.

…

In the imperial capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty, in the imperial palace.

Emperor De, who was at his peak, was dealing with state affairs.

Over the years, although he had been busy with state affairs, his cultivation had been steadily improving. It was mainly because he was the emperor and had no lack of resources. Just by stacking resources on himself, he could also improve steadily.

Hence, he was energetic and managed the Yuhua God Dynasty well.

But recently, he encountered a lot of trouble.

“Your Majesty, we won a great victory in the war at the borders. The world should be stable for some time. Why are you so troubled every day?” The Empress, who had shared a bed with him for decades, asked softly.

Emperor De had never had a concubine all these years. He only had the Empress. This was also one of the reasons why he was praised by all the women in the world.

The Empress’s position was stable, and she didn’t have to worry about the plotting and scheming in a typical royal harem. Her cultivation level was also quite high, and she was skilled in preserving her looks. Even though decades had passed, she was still as beautiful as she was back then, and was favored by Emperor De.

“Empress, although we won the battle at the borders, huge changes are happening every moment in this world. In the past few months, the speed of recovery of the spiritual energy has increased by more than ten times, maybe even a hundred times. A new challenge has appeared.” Emperor De put down the memorial and laid on the Empress’s plump thigh, enjoying a moment of peace in his heart.

To Emperor De, the Empress was his mental harbor.

“I also felt it. Why did the spiritual energy suddenly expand so much?” The Empress asked curiously.

Previously, when people said that the spiritual energy increased increase by a few times, tens, or even hundreds of times, Emperor De didn’t take it seriously.

Because in the past, there was very little spiritual energy in the world. Even if one expanded it by a few hundred times, the increase was based on a very small amount.

But now, after hundreds of years of recovery, the spiritual energy in the air was already extremely vast. If it were to expand by more than ten times now, this was more terrifying than expanding by hundreds or even thousands of times in the past.

“I don’t know the specific reason, but the cultivation level of the King Realm isn’t enough anymore. The might of the war machine has been raised to the Spirit Platform Realm, but it’s still continuing to improve. The war machine’s improving method is the most direct. The more the spiritual energy, the faster its recovery speed to its peak,” Emperor De said with his eyes closed.

The Empress looked at her man with loving eyes. This man who had the greatest authority in the world was now unguarded in front of her. He was like a child, saying the most intimate words to her.

“Isn’t that good?” The Empress massaged Emperor De gently.

“No, the war machine is improving, which means that more powerful powerhouses will appear. Recently, I’ve been feeling stifled, as if someone is targeting me,” Emperor De said.

The Empress was shocked. She immediately said, “Then get someone to investigate. The defense of the palace must be strengthened too.”

“I’ve already gotten Yulin to investigate, but this feeling is still so terrifying.” Emperor De frowned.

The Empress wanted to say something, but in the very next moment, a voice sounded.

“I didn’t expect that a Human Emperor with such a low cultivation base would have such a high spiritual perception? This is really incredible.”

At this moment, an old man’s voice sounded with disdain. It reverberated in this chamber.

“Insolent!” The Empress shouted. Her beautiful face was filled with shock and anger. She hurriedly shouted, “Protect the Emperor, there’s an assassin!”

“There’s no need to shout. These weak guards can’t withstand the pressure of my divine soul at all. All of them have fainted. There’s only the two of you here.” An old man with a head of white hair walked out of the darkness. His hooked nose made him look very mean, but his aura was thick and oppressive. It was very terrifying.

The Empress was worried. She wanted to say something, but Emperor De stood up and looked at the old man calmly.

“It seems that the pressure that I’ve been feeling all this time was caused by you. Who are you?” Emperor De asked coldly.

“You can still question me so calmly in front of me. How courageous. You’ve managed this glorious world well, but it’s time for you to return it to us.” The old man looked at Emperor De with confidence.

“Return it to you?” Emperor De raised his brows.

“Who are you guys?” Emperor De asked.

“Let me introduce myself. I’m Lord Nine of the Taichu God Dynasty from the previous era. I’m at the Void Returning Realm, a realm stronger than your war machine,” Lord Nine smiled proudly and said.

“I’ve been awake for a month. During this month, I’ve been observing this world. You’ve done well as an emperor, it’s just that some of your policies are too idealistic and are too good for the common people. You don’t know that the common people don’t have to do too well. If they do, then they will become too greedy!”

“Now, return the Yuhua God Dynasty to my Taichu God Dynasty and I will spare your life!”

“There’s no need to doubt this. In the current world, no one can defeat me yet. At this current stage in the world, I am the King!”

The old man spread his arms, filled with a strong sense of superiority.
