My Cultivation Prowess Peaks after I Buried the Great Emperor's Corpse

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xuanyuan Great World was a low-level great world under the Penglai celestial race. Due to its rich world origin, there had been Heavenly Emperor-level creatures produced in this great world.

Whoosh!

After passing through the world barrier, Xiao Baiyi used his powerful strength to teleport through the void, crossing hundreds of millions of miles.

A moment later, he came to a remote town in the northernmost part of the Xuanyuan Great World and stopped at a place called Qingshan Academy.

In the Academy, a tall and elegant middle-aged man in green was teaching a group of seven or eight-year-old children.

The sound of reading slowly sounded from the ancient academy. Everything in the surroundings was simple.

It was just a mortal city.

Standing outside the Academy, Xiao Baiyi immersed himself in the sound of children reading and the aura of the human world. A light of reminiscence flashed in his eyes.

Not long ago, he had been like this too.

“Zhao Wushen, come out and meet me!”

He moved his lips slightly.

Hmm?

Suddenly hearing this, the green-robed man in the Academy instantly looked out of the window.

When he saw Xiao Baiyi’s figure, he could not help but be stunned.

After that, he frowned and pondered for a while. Then, he held an ancient book and pushed the door open.

“How did you find me here?” Zhao Wushen said indifferently.

His expression was calm and his words were emotionless. It was as if he had no interest in the human world.

“Zhao Wushen, we haven’t seen each other for 800 years, right? Back then, you were the number one prodigy in the Lingxiao Great World. If you were around, I’m afraid you would have long completed your celestial ascension. All the opportunities that I have now should have been yours.”

Xiao Baiyi reminisced. Between his words were sighs.

Hearing his words, Zhao Wushen shook his head.

“What number one prodigy of the Lingxiao Great World? Everything that happened in the past is already a fleeting cloud to me. Right now, I’m just a mortal. Ever since Qingyi died, my heart died too,” He replied indifferently. Xiao Qingyi?

Hearing this name, Xiao Baiyi sighed in his heart.

“Zhao Wushen, back then you and Qingyi met, got to know each other, and fell in love. It was a pity that the difference in status between the two of you was too great, and you could not be together. Qingyi is the precious pearl of the Lingxiao Great World’s Lord. She is also the Goddess of the Penglai celestial race and has the potential to become a Quasi-Immortal Lord. Back then, I didn’t think the two of you would end well, and the final outcome was indeed as I had expected. Qingyi was taken away, while all of your cultivation was sealed by the Lord. If you had listened to my advice back then…”

“Xiao Baiyi, are you here today to open my wound and sprinkle salt on it?”

Zhao Wushen’s expression turned cold.

Hearing this, Xiao Baiyi pursed his lips.

“If I have nothing better to do, why would I come from the Tiancang Great World to the Xuanyuan Great World just to sprinkle salt on your wound?” Tiancang Great World?

Zhao Wushen was clearly stunned when he heard this.

“It’s been eight hundred years since we last met, and you’ve actually obtained the right to go to the Tiancang Great World?”

The Tiancang Great World was the origin great world controlled by the Penglai celestial race. Only the most orthodox and most talented members of the race could go there.

Once upon a time, that was also the place that Zhao Wushen yearned for. He didn’t expect Xiao Baiyi to achieve something he couldn’t even imagine after not seeing the latter for 800 years.

“Hehe, I was just lucky. I was lucky enough to gain Celestial Lord Qinglan’s favor.”

Celestial Lord Qinglan?

Zhao Wushen’s heart trembled.

That person was a powerful existence that could almost become an Immortal Emperor.

Was Xiao Baiyi affiliated with him?

“So… Are you here to show off to me this time?”

“No. Actually, 1 came to find you this time mainly because 1 have a huge opportunity to give to you. If you can grasp it, then you will definitely be favored by Celestial Lord Qinglan and rise to the top in one step,” Xiao Baiyi said solemnly.

Hearing this, Zhao Wushen immediately revealed a bewildered expression.

“What opportunity?”

“Oh, it’s like this. Celestial Lord Qing Lan is looking for an invincible Divine King, one who can kill Sages. Right now, the Lords of the ten higher great worlds and the origin great world are frantically searching for such a person. 1 remember that you have the Heavenly Dao God-Demon Body. Back then, you killed three Sages with your level 10 Divine King-realm cultivation and did not lose. As long as you catch the eye of Celestial Lord Qinglan, you will surely reach the heavens in one step and your name will shake the entire Penglai celestial race. This is an opportunity that countless people can’t even dream of. You have to cherish it,” Xiao Baiyi said in a deep voice.

Back then, Zhao Wushen was known as the number one Divine King in the Lingxiao Great World. When he was still a level 8 Divine King, he could suppress all Divine Kings. He killed those level 10 Divine Kings until their corpses littered the ground.

Later on, when he reached level 10 of the Divine King realm, he even managed to kill three Sages without losing just by relying on his physical strength.

Such a glorious battle record was incomparably dazzling even in the entire history of the Penglai celestial race.

Therefore, when Xiao Baiyi heard that Lin Wudao was looking for an invincible Divine King, he immediately thought of Zhao Wushen.

If the other party were to make a move, he would definitely be able to defeat all the Divine King.

“Zhao Wushen, pack up immediately and follow me. Use your strength to write your glory to your heart’s content. Perhaps one day, even I will look up to you,” Xiao Baiyi said with a smile.

However, after hearing his words, Zhao Wushen was unmoved. His expression was as calm as ever.

“My heart is already dead. Right now, I just want to teach here quietly and wait until the end of my life before going to accompany Qingyi.”

After saying that, Zhao Wushen ignored the shocked Xiao Baiyi, turned around, and walked toward the Academy.

“Wait! Zhao Wushen, Miss Qingyi is not dead. She is still alive!”

Suddenly, Xiao Baiyi revealed a shocking piece of news.

What? Qingyi was still alive?

As soon as he said this, Zhao Wushen’s body suddenly trembled and he instantly turned around, staring intently at Xiao Baiyi.

“Xiao Baiyi, what did you say?”

“I said, Miss Qingyi is not dead. She has been living well in this world. All these years, she has been cultivating in the Tiancang Great World and has become a disciple of a Celestial Lord. She has never left.”

“But, I clearly witnessed Qingyi’s death back then…”

“That was just to make you give up. The Lord used a smokescreen. The truth back then was that the Lord used a secret technique to refine a Dharmakaya for Miss Qingyi to replace her original body. The Lord is Quasi-Immortal Emperor, after all, so how could a puny Divine King like you see through a technique at that level? Therefore, Miss Qingyi has always been living well. However, her memories of you have been sealed by the Lord. I personally went to the Tiancang Great World and heard about all of this through Celestial Lord Qinglan. It’s absolutely true.”

“Let me tell you another secret. Celestial Lord Qinglan is searching for a Divine King to help a benefactor kill a Sage. As long as you do this well, you will definitely be praised and favored by Celestial Lord Qing Lan. You may even gain the favor of that benefactor! Once you succeed, the matter between you and Miss Qingyi will not be a problem anymore,” Xiao Baiyi said in a deep voice. What? Was Qingyi really not dead?

Listening to Xiao Baiyi’s narration, Zhao Wushen’s flame of hope that had been extinguished for 800 years was rekindled. The blood in his body boiled at this moment.

“Xiao Baiyi, you are not lying to me, right?” manhua

“Absolutely not. I believe in your strength. As long as you make a move, you will definitely be able to suppress all Divine Kings and even kill Sages. At that time, it will be a great merit. Such an opportunity might not even be encountered in an era. You’ve hit the jackpot!”

At this point, Xiao Baiyi cast an envious look.

If it weren’t for Zhao Wushen, he would have severed his Great Emperor-realm cultivation to join the Divine King competition.

“However, my current cultivation has already been sealed by the Lord. There’s nothing 1 can do,” Zhao Wushen sighed.

He knew that this was a rare opportunity, but unfortunately, he was just an ordinary cripple now that his cultivation was sealed. Even if he had the heart, he didn’t have the strength.

Regarding this, Xiao Baiyi had a mysterious look on his face.

“Do you dare to come with me to the Tiancang Great World?”

“You want me to…”

“To meet Celestial Lord Qinglan, of course. The seal on your body was placed by the Lord. Other than the Lord, only an existence stronger than him can undo it. In the entire Penglai celestial race, other than the Immortal Lord, there is only Celestial Lord Qinglan who can do so. It’s just nice that I can take this opportunity to introduce you to the Celestial Lord. The Celestial Lord has sharp eyes and will definitely be able to see the endless potential in you. At that time, your opportunity will come.”

Xiao Baiyi’s eyes were burning.

Once Zhao Wushen caught Xiao Qinglan’s eye, he would be remembered for his merit in recommending the former.

In the future, whether with his relationship with Zhao Wushen or Celestial Lord Qinglan’s appreciation, he would have a bright future.

That was why Xiao Baiyi did his best to facilitate this matter.

“Do you dare to go?”

“Why not?”

Zhao Wushen’s eyes were firm. At this moment, he seemed to have changed into a different person.

“Good. Let’s leave now, it’s best if we can get there before the other Lords.”

Boom!

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Baiyi swept up Zhao Wushen and left the Xuanyuan Great World as quickly as possible.

Buzz!

As they left, a ripple suddenly appeared in the void behind them.

Immediately after, two mysterious figures walked out. Their deep eyes looked at the backs of Xiao Baiyi and Zhao Wushen thoughtfully..
