Three Realms Assembly to Execute the Human King!

Earth Cave, King Gan, King Xun, King Gen, King Ming, and the others felt a mix of worry and relief.

The conflict and hatred between Human Emperor Ji and the human race were already irreconcilable!

A battle between the two sides was inevitable!

Because of this, even if Human Emperor Ji were to Transcend the Three Realms, he would not abandon his support for them in capturing and killing the Future Human King.

In the Origin Source, Human Emperor Ji looked at the Sky Screen and sneered silently at his exposure.

Since he had already schemed against the human race, he was not afraid of them knowing.

Moreover, many of his schemes had already become obsolete the moment the Sky Screen arrived.

Now, the Heavenly Emperor was dead; the God Emperor, Eastern Emperor, War Heavenly Emperor, Earth Emperor, and Spirit Emperor had all Transcended, and the Northern Emperor had fallen!

The only Emperor the Seed could rely on was him!

"Heavenly Emperor... the Heavenly Emperor is dead, and I shall become the next Heavenly Emperor!"

Ambition burned fiercely in the eyes of Human Emperor Ji.

If the Seed wanted to extinguish martial arts and destroy the powerhouses of the Three Realms who were backlashing against it, it would inevitably have to rely on him, the Emperor of the guardian clan.

If that was the case, he might be able to obtain the Seed's full support just like the Heavenly Emperor did!

Infinite resurrection, combat power exceeding two hundred million!

Human Emperor Ji admitted that even if he were to Transcend the Three Realms right now, his strength would still not compare to the Earth Emperor, let alone the God Emperor and the others.

He dared not leave the Three Realms to flee into the chaos.

But staying in the Three Realms, there were too many people who could kill him!

Even the remnant soul projection of the War Heavenly Emperor might possess the power to annihilate him!

In this sense, not Transcending was actually better.

By not Transcending, he could act as the "dog" of the Seed, borrowing its power to become stronger—incredibly strong!

The Future Human King was the perfect excuse!

The Sky Screen had already exposed the Future Human King, revealing that he and the Grey Cat would devour the Seed in the future.

The Seed would also fear being devoured.

To nip the Future Human King in the bud, the Seed had to rely on him.

Human Emperor Ji sneered, but he would not let the Future Human King die easily.

He wanted the Future Human King to grow, to make the powerhouses of the Three Realms and the Seed feel the immense danger posed by the Future Human King!

Only in this way could he reap the greatest benefits!

Human Emperor Ji gazed at the Sky Screen, his eyes flickering.

He had left chess pieces in the Human Realm.

The current cultivation level of the Future Human King was at lowest Rank One, and at highest no more than Rank Six.

The Future Human King's level was too low.

Right now, the Seed would not feel a great sense of crisis, nor would it give him, the executioner, a very generous reward.

He had to make the Future Human King grow rapidly!

"The human race lacks resources? Then this Emperor shall send you resources and send you heads, allowing you to grow rapidly amidst endless slaughter!"

Human Emperor Ji held a black piece in one hand and placed it on the chessboard.

As the black piece landed on the board, the other white and black pieces were suddenly extinguished!

At this moment, the Sky Screen's exposure of Human Emperor Ji came to a complete end.

[Human Emperor Ji, spokesperson for the Seed, possesses the spirit of a powerhouse, but lacks the bearing of an Emperor.]

[Reward: One Emperor-level Origin Source Body!]

"How can this be!"

Western Emperor was filled with shock and suspicion!

The reward for Human Emperor Ji was actually not to Transcend the Three Realms!

At this moment, Western Emperor felt a chill run down his spine.

What exactly does Ji want to do?!

The rewards given by the Sky Screen were always suited to those on the list, but Human Emperor Ji's reward was not Transcendence.

That meant Human Emperor Ji did not want to Transcend!

Divine Sect, Earth Emperor smiled suddenly: "Does Ji want to replace the Heavenly Emperor and cooperate with the Seed?"

"Are you afraid?"

God Emperor, Eastern Emperor, and Heaven Fighting Emperor were not surprised that the reward for the Human Emperor was not to Transcend the Three Realms.

"Ji has too many schemes; he has likely already reached a cooperation with the Seed," Heaven Fighting Emperor laughed.

Eastern Emperor chuckled softly: "Ji will not easily kill the Future Human King. Pulling chestnuts from the fire, pursuing the maximization of benefits... that is who he is."

God Emperor smiled faintly: "This Emperor is waiting to see the human race flip his chessboard!"

Earth Cave, King Gan, King Xun, and King Gen were overjoyed!

With this, the Human Emperor could manifest an avatar to leave the Origin Source and preside over the overall situation!

Heaven Suppressing King and God Forger would be unable to do anything to them!

Human Realm, Because of the Sky Screen's exposure of the Human Emperor, Zhang Tao immediately found Heaven Suppressing King and God Forger.

The three of them joined forces, preparing to unearth the Human Emperor Sword suppressed within the Human Realm.

Southern Martial University, Zhang Xuan had originally intended to stretch his muscles and personally snap the Human Emperor Sword in two.

But after thinking it over carefully, he decided against it.

However, weakening the power of the Human Emperor Sword was still not a problem.

The Human Emperor Sword had been guarding the Human Realm for eight thousand years, and even Heaven Suppressing King had not found it, but God Forger was different.

God Forger's divine eyes were extremely special!

Zhang Xuan clearly remembered that when God Forger met Fang Ping, he immediately discovered the anomaly about him.

He bluntly pointed out that Fang Ping was not a resurrected martial artist, nor was he a person of this era; he might be a person from the future, and not necessarily someone who grew up in the New Martial Arts era!

He could even sense that Fang Ping was involved with time, space, or illusions!

God Forger could be considered the first non-Emperor to discover that something was wrong with Fang Ping!

Zhang Xuan even felt that if God Forger were to take a stroll through Yang City and see the Yang God disguised as an ordinary person, he would also be able to detect that something was amiss.

"Human Emperor Sword..."

Zhang Xuan whispered, his eyes narrowing slightly. He gently drew his sword and slashed out; the void shattered without a sound!

At the same time, Beneath Mount Tai!

A golden longsword emitted a booming sound!

The surrounding void shattered in an instant!

"The Human Emperor Sword is trying to run!"

Heaven Suppressing King, Zhang Tao, and God Forger all changed expression, instantly tearing through the void and launching a fierce attack to suppress the Human Emperor Sword!

Heaven Suppressing King said: "Zhang Tao, the Human Emperor Sword has absorbed the spiritual energy of the Human Realm for eight thousand years, gathering the essence of humanity. In a moment, once it is weakened, use your Great Dao to claim it!"

"Understood!"

Zhang Tao said in a deep voice.

The three of them bombarded the Human Emperor Sword without mercy!

The void trembled!

Earth Cave, "There is a disturbance in the Human Realm!"

King Gen frowned.

King Gan, King Xun, and Feng exchanged glances and instantly shifted to the Outer Region of the Earth Cave.

A faint mental energy passed through the passage and entered the Human Realm.

"The Human Emperor Sword!"

Feng's expression changed: "Heaven Suppressing King and the others are going to shatter the Human Emperor Sword!"

"Get lost!"

Heaven Suppressing King naturally sensed someone probing and directly struck out, tearing apart the other party's mental energy.

Feng's face turned pale, and he instantly retreated from the Outer Region.

Earth Cave, Inside the Heavenly Fate Royal Court.

Feng, King Xun, King Gen, King Gan, Emperor Venerable Qingjing of the Boundary Land, and other powerhouses of the Three Realms gathered in the Earth Cave!

"Everyone, the Human Emperor Sword is merely a divine artifact, yet the human race vented their rage upon it and shattered it!"

"If we were to accidentally provoke the human race, do you think they would let us off?"

"The Earth Cave and the Human Realm have been at war for a century. The human race has repeatedly sought aid from the Heaven Beyond Heaven and the Boundary Land, yet none of you responded!"

"If the human race becomes truly powerful, do you think they will spare you?"

"The Heaven Beyond Heaven in the Human Realm has already been completely annihilated. The next will be the Boundary Land, and then the Earth Cave!"

"Who among us can escape?!"

"As for defecting to the human race... hah, we have cultivated to this realm after enduring so much hardship!"

"Are we really willing to be ordered around by the human race!"

King Ming scanned the crowd and said coldly:

"Do not forget, the Future Human King is not a human king, but a Human Demon!"

"A Demon King who commits every evil and has no bottom line!"

"The human race lacks resources, and they have numerous martial artists!"

"Sooner or later, they will wage war against us for resources!"

Emperor Venerable Qingjing, Heavenly Emperor Changrong, Heavenly Emperor Wuya of Wuya Mountain, the Beautiful Empress of Wenxian Island... everyone's expression turned grim.

King Ming added fuel to the fire: "The human race is currently led by Martial King Zhang Tao!"

"This man is petty and vengeful, capable of anything, yet he has been lying low and biding his time!"

"For every faction that has harmed the human race, even if they only killed one person, the Martial King remembers it vividly!"

"It is highly likely that this man has already attained the Heavenly King realm! The Sky Screen even claims he possesses an Emperor's Bearing!"

"If we do not kill him, he will eventually slaughter us all!"

King Gan and King Ming first applied pressure to the group before slowly revealing their plan and the backing behind it.

"Everyone, it is not just us who want to capture and kill the two generations of human kings; the Human Emperor and even the Seed want to capture and kill the Future Human King!" King Gan scanned the crowd and said in a deep voice:

"The Human Emperor will send a clone to personally intercept the Heaven Suppressing King and the God Forger! If these two are held back, do you mean to tell me you don't even have the heart to fight?"

The Beautiful Empress said coldly:

"That is easy to say!"

"If we move to capture and kill the current Future Human King, would the War Heavenly Emperor not intervene?"

"Besides, who knows if the War Heavenly Emperor or the Earth Emperor left behind any measures within the body of the Future Human King!"

King Xun said in a deep voice: "Then let us hold the Three Realms Martial Dao Tournament, force the human race to participate, and have their peers slaughter each other to kill the human geniuses!"

"For the sake of our great cause, a few genius martial artists under our command are not worth mourning, even if they die!"

"Even if they cannot kill the Future Human King, the deaths of other geniuses will all be blamed on him. How could the human race not resent him? Once he loses the hearts of the people, he can no longer be a human king!"

"The Three Realms Martial Dao Tournament..."

Everyone's eyes sharpened!

If one dies in a battle between peers, they can only blame their own lack of skill.

They have lived for hundreds or thousands of years; could their disciples possibly be inferior to the weak human race?

"Fine, then we shall hold the Three Realms Martial Dao Tournament, lure them with benefits, and force the human race to participate!"

"If the human race refuses to participate, we will send all factions to gather outside the Earth Cave Outer Region and ambush the human martial artists!"

King Gan, King Gen, and King Xun felt joy in their hearts.

The contemporary human king and the Future Human King must both die!

First kill the Future Human King, then behead the contemporary human king!

The Three Realms conference to execute the human king is about to begin!

That very day, the Earth Cave Hundred Kings Conference was convened, and all factions sent their genius martial artists below the seventh grade to gather at the Heavenly Fate Royal Court!

King Hua and some other Earth Cave True Kings maintained a wait-and-see attitude and did not send their geniuses to compete.

Although King Huai was not invited by King Ming to the Hundred Kings Conference, he still obtained the information and, in a counter-move, sold the intelligence to Zhang Tao.

In the Human Realm, Zhang Tao learned the news, his face turning cold with a hint of self-mockery.

The human race has become a public enemy!

Clearly, the Future Human King stabilizing the origin was a good thing!

Yet those so-called Heavenly Realm Emperor Venerables and the so-called Immortal Race view the Future Human King as a treasure and a mortal enemy!

Greed and resentment!

The human race is clearly just trying to strengthen itself and save itself!

Yet these people cannot see through who the true enemy really is!

Zhang Tao wore a mocking smile, his eyes icy cold!

What a high-sounding Three Realms Martial Arts Exchange Tournament!

In reality, it is a scheme to coerce and lure the human race's prodigies into participating!

Since that is the case, then kill!

The human race is not inferior to anyone!

Zhang Tao immediately relayed the message to Heaven Suppressing King, God Forger, Li Zhen, and Nan Yunyue.

"Three Realms Martial Arts Tournament... they want to wipe out the human race's prodigies!" Heaven Suppressing King's expression turned cold.

He instantly understood the intentions of the Earth Cave and the other factions!

Even if Future Human King did not participate, they could still set up traps in the Earth Cave to slowly slaughter the human prodigies, causing a generational gap in human powerhouses.

They might even intentionally leave some survivors to incite resentment among the surviving human prodigies against Future Human King, stirring up emotions!

If they refused to participate, the subsequent war in the Outer Region would no longer be just a matter between the Earth Cave and the Human Realm.

Prodigy martial artists from the Earth Cave Forbidden Zone and the subordinates of the various Three Realms powerhouses could all appear in the Outer Region!

Li Zhen's expression was frigid: "We must never yield!"

Even if the human prodigies were to win big, they would be completely exposed to the eyes of the Three Realms powerhouses, and it is highly likely they would be specifically targeted by other factions in the future.

"I fear there is an Emperor supporting them behind this," God Forger said in a deep voice.

"If we don't participate, a great war will erupt in the Outer Region instantly. The enemy will ambush and kill the human prodigies one by one."

"If we participate, a portion of the prodigies will inevitably fall and be exposed!"

Heaven Suppressing King fell silent.

If an Emperor is providing support, then he and God Forger cannot act as they please.

Though they are strong, they are not yet strong enough to steamroll the Three Realms.

They are capable of secretly raiding and destroying other factions one by one.

But an Emperor could also wipe out the martial artists and powerhouses of the Human Realm in an instant!

Killing intent roiled in Zhang Tao's eyes.

The human race is still too weak!

So weak that whenever a peerless prodigy appears, others feel it is a monstrous crime!

If Future Human King had been born among the descendants of an Emperor, who would dare to coerce an Emperor?

Heaven Suppressing King said in a deep voice: "If I attain the Dao and become an Emperor, I may not necessarily be inferior to Human Emperor!"

It is not hard to guess which Emperor is supporting the Earth Cave from behind.

God Forger shook his head: "The Seed may have already reached a cooperation with Human Emperor.

Human Emperor might even have secretly become the next Heavenly Emperor!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of Heaven Suppressing King, Zhang Tao, and the others changed drastically!

The next Heavenly Emperor!

Infinite resurrection, a massive surge in combat power!

With the rise of Future Human King, who is the most afraid?

The Seed!

The Seed is also afraid of being completely devoured!

Beyond Human Emperor, the Seed might even contact other Emperors, or perhaps secretly mold an Emperor!

After all, the Seed can even resurrect Emperors; molding an Emperor should not be difficult.

To become an Emperor—who among the Three Realms powerhouses does not want to become an Emperor?!

If the Seed uses the promise of becoming an Emperor to lure the ancient powerhouses, no one could resist its temptation!

"Then we shall participate, kill until they are terrified, and seize the rewards and resources from all sides so that our human prodigies can grow rapidly using their funding!"

Nan Yunyue said coldly: "In battles of the same rank, our human prodigies are equally fearless!"

Who is strong and who is weak is not yet certain!

"They want us to participate, fine, but I want them to bleed!" Zhang Tao said in a grave voice.

Bleeding, and not just a little!

Since there are competitions from rank one to rank six, there should naturally be Heavenly King-level and Emperor-level competitions as well!

It is just that...

Zhang Tao was somewhat conflicted.

Should he let Fang Ping, Wang Jinyang, and the others participate in the tournament as well?

A few days later, undercurrents surged throughout the Three Realms!

King Gan, King Gen, King Xun, Feng, several Saints from the Thirty-Six Saints, as well as factions from the Overseas Immortal Islands, the Boundary Land, and parts of Heaven Beyond Heaven jointly announced that they would host the Three Realms Martial Arts Exchange Tournament in one month!

The battlefield would be divided into domains ranging from Rank One to Rank Six!

Low-rank martial artists who achieved final victory could choose whether to enter the next level of the arena, but high-rank martial artists were forbidden from entering lower levels!

Some neutral factions also received invitations.

Heavenly Emperor Long Bian's eyes were indifferent: "A fine Martial Arts Exchange Tournament indeed!"

They were using the name of martial arts exchange to carry out the slaughter of the Human Realm's prodigies!

Wang Ruobing no longer felt weak at this moment; she was a proper, beautiful, and stunning ten-thousand-year-old maiden.

When the God Emperor returned to the Three Realms, he had secretly acted to resolve the blood qi seed within her body.

Of course, neither she nor Heavenly Emperor Long Bian were aware of this.

Wang Ruobing asked curiously: "Father, will our Long Bian Heaven participate?"

Heavenly Emperor Long Bian shook his head; their Long Bian Brahma Heaven simply did not have such weak disciples.

"This tournament is a crisis aimed at the Human Realm!"

Heavenly Emperor Long Bian's expression grew grave; if the Human Realm participated, a bloodbath would surely be unavoidable!

Anyone with a discerning eye could see what King Gan and the others intended, and who they were targeting!

Even if they could not eliminate the Future Human King and the Human Realm's prodigy martial artists on the battlefield, the Human Realm's prodigies would be completely exposed to the eyes of the Three Realms, and would be even more targeted and feared by all parties afterward!

King Gan and the others did not even bother to hide their intentions, sending some resources directly to Zhang Tao.

If they participated, these resources would be the "rewards" given in advance!

If they did not participate, then they would return the resources.

If they did not return the resources, King Gan and the others could use the excuse of reclaiming their property to carry out a "righteous act."

In the Human Realm, originally, a national exchange tournament was to be held at the end of the year for all major martial arts universities across the country, involving the competition for resources.

But the Human Emperor Sword had been shattered, and the energy in the Human Realm was no longer inferior to the Earth Cave.

Zhang Tao had even wiped out the Heaven Beyond Heaven factions in the Human Realm, leading to a massive increase in resources.

With the Three Realms Martial Arts Exchange Tournament now on the table, the national exchange tournament would no longer be held on a large scale.

However, it would be held privately.

Each university would send five people from Rank One to Rank Six to the Capital to engage in a chaotic battle against military martial artists of the same rank!

Since no martial arts students had reached Rank Six yet, the Rank Six participants would have no age restrictions and would be volunteers!

Ten people would be decided from each rank nationwide to participate in the Three Realms Martial Arts Exchange Tournament!

However, the strongest were not necessarily the ones who would take the stage; it was entirely voluntary.

If the time came to take the stage and one felt timid, they could simply concede.

Losing face was better than losing one's life.

Zhang Tao looked at Fang Ping and Wang Jinyang; he was somewhat reluctant to let Fang Ping participate.

But thinking about it carefully, New Martial Arts practitioners still needed to experience blood to grow.

"Whether you can make it into the top ten depends on your own abilities," Zhang Tao whispered.

Fang Ping did not have a very strong desire to participate.

After all, this competition was too targeted!

He was not stupid; he naturally knew that those with ulterior motives wanted to use this to lock onto the identity of the Future Human King.

But the benefits of participating were also huge!

Zhang Tao and the others would inevitably exhaust everything to arm the selected participants.

These past few days, Fang Ping had already obtained quite a few resources in the Capital, but these resources were not enough.

He could not just open his mouth to Zhang Tao and say he wanted one hundred billion or one trillion in resources.

And Zhang Tao would not give them!

It was absolutely impossible to supply him with the resources of the entire Human Realm!

If he really represented the Human Realm in the competition, as long as he did not appear too special or too prominent, he might not necessarily be targeted.

Compared to him, Old Wang was more suspicious of being the "Future Human King."

He had reached Rank Four in less than two years, and he had improved again these past few days!

Fang Ping even felt that once Wang Jinyang broke through to the peak of Rank Four, he would be invincible at Rank Four!

It would be nearly impossible for a prodigy like that to participate in the Three Realms Martial Arts Competition without being targeted.

Unless Wang Jinyang played it safe and didn't compete for resources.

Wang Jinyang furrowed his brows slightly, lost in thought.

He also didn't want to expose his uniqueness to his enemies.

But once he entered the competition, he would no longer be the master of his own fate.

If he were pushed to a desperate situation, he would inevitably have to reveal his trump cards.

The risks and rewards were both immense!

"You don't need to tell me whether you'll participate; today, I will send you all back to school."

Zhang Tao looked at Fang Ping and Wang Jinyang as he spoke.

Fang Ping and Wang Jinyang exchanged a glance and nodded.

After Zhang Tao left, Fang Ping looked at Wang Jinyang and asked in a low voice, "Brother Wang, do you plan on participating?"

Wang Jinyang said in a deep voice, "I have that intention. It's just that I'm not certain I can make it into the top ten."

After all, he had only recently broken through to the Rank Four, and there were quite a few Rank Four martial artists in Hua Nation, including many at the peak of Rank Four; there were certainly those stronger than him.

If he were still at the peak of Rank Three, he would definitely have been able to secure a spot.

But now, Wang Jinyang wasn't entirely sure he could make it into the top ten.

Fang Ping nodded.

"Wang Jinyang is participating, so should I?"

Fang Ping pondered lightly.

More than half a month later, the Sky Screen, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly shone brightly once again!

"It's happening again, it's finally happening again!"

"Is the Sky Screen going to expose the Three Realms again?"

"What kind of ranking will the Sky Screen reveal this time?"

"I'm so looking forward to it!"

At this very moment, everyone in the Three Realms looked up and stared intently at the Sky Screen.

Golden light flickered, and a line of gilded text slowly emerged upon the Sky Screen!

[Three Realms Heavenly Pride Ranking: Human Realm List!]

(5,000 words, asking for follows and everything else, kneeling in thanks to everyone!)
