Su Xiuyi's sword strike slayed the Heavenly Dao, momentarily intimidating many beings.
Even the Immortal King Zhantian, who was in seclusion, couldn't hold back for a moment. He was supposed to reach the Immortal Emperor realm soon, but at this moment, the Immortal King Zhantian chose to come out of seclusion without any hesitation.
The elders, who were consolidating their cultivation, were also gathered in the main hall, and all their gazes fell on Immortal King Zhantian.
"Greetings, Sect Master."
The Immortal King Zhantian did not speak immediately, but instead swept his gaze across all those present in the hall with a complex expression.
"Friends, time waits for no one. We don't have much time to wait. If we wait any longer, we may all become worthless."
" Su Xiuyi's methods are heaven-defying. I got some Yiyi information from Yi Yi that before long, the Great Zhou Imperial Clan will give birth to countless Immortal King. At that time, you Immortal King will have no status whatsoever."
"Moreover, we are not part of the direct line of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan, and therefore will not be valued or given important positions by them."
"Originally, I wanted to consider joining the Great Zhou Imperial Clan after reaching the Immortal Emperor, but today, after Su Xiu slayed the Heavenly Dao Consciousness, I truly felt its power."
Even if I were to reach the realm of Immortal Emperor, I wouldn't have a significant role in this era or in the Great Zhou. After all, with Su Xiuyi's strength, she alone could stabilize the world.
"Few among the Immortal Emperor could withstand that sword strike."
"How much time has passed since it appeared?"
"We are running out of time. We don't know what the elders' decision is."
"I learned some things from the royal family before. We can choose to join the Great Zhou Imperial Clan, but then the Battle Heaven Sect will cease to exist, and we will all be completely disrupted and integrated into the Great Zhou Imperial Clan's government. But we also have another option, which is to establish a sect within the Great Zhou Imperial Clan family's power and maintain the inheritance of my Battle Heaven Sect."
"Of course, if we want the protection of the Great Zhou, then we must also obey the Great Zhou's commands."
After Immortal King Zhantian finished speaking, he fell silent, his expression incredibly complex.
Indeed, from the moment Su Xiuyi appeared and displayed her talent until now, not even a year has passed. In the eyes of these powerful figures, a year is but a fleeting moment.
And now they are witnessing the complete birth of a regional overlord.
Having just sensed Su Xiuyi's sword strike, Immortal King Zhantian now fully understands that even if he breaks through to the Immortal Emperor realm, he won't be taken too seriously.
If there had been no catastrophe, the Immortal Emperor realm would still have been able to stand firm on this earth, protecting the entire Battle Heaven Sect.
However, the calamity is imminent. When the Haotian World opens, there will be countless Immortal Emperor, rampant Immortal Emperor, and Immortal King as numerous as dogs. Under such a great calamity, the Battle Heaven Sect will be nothing more than a tiny speck.
Of course, the Battle Heaven Sect Battle Heaven Sect is not his alone. Although everyone obeys his orders, some elders are older than him and have witnessed the rise of the Battle Heaven Sect. Perhaps some of them are reluctant to give up the legacy of the Battle Heaven Sect.
Therefore, the Immortal King Zhantian wanted to see everyone's opinions. If they were divided into two factions, one faction would join the Great Zhou Imperial Clan, and the other faction would establish the Battle Heaven Sect Battle Heaven Sect and maintain its lineage.
In the main hall, a cacophony of sounds erupted, and the elders wore expressions of profound complexity and solemnity.
In particular, all of the Immortal King among these elders were created by Su Xiuyi; without Su Xiuyi, it could be said that none of them would exist.
Seeing the chaotic scene in the main hall, the Immortal King Zhantian remained silent for a moment.
Not long after, a senior elder emerged with a complicated expression.
"Sect Master, we have decided to fully join the Great Zhou. Although maintaining the traditions of the Battle Heaven Sect will garner the support of the Great Zhou, we believe that the Great Zhou has boundless potential. Only by following the Great Zhou can our Battle Heaven Sect have a true future."
"Moreover, the Holy Maiden has long followed Su Xiuyi. With the Holy Maiden's existence, even if we completely integrate into the Great Zhou, we will still receive some favors, perhaps even being granted titles and positions of power."
"Preserving the legacy of the Battle Heaven Sect is indeed commendable, but whether it can be preserved under this great calamity remains to be seen."
"However, as for the outcome, I leave it to the Sect Master to decide."
"Please make the decision, Sect Master."
One by one, the figures hurriedly bowed, their gazes falling upon the Immortal King Zhantian.
Hearing the result of the discussion, Immortal King Zhantian was not too surprised. He had guessed this choice, since the elders who had entered the Immortal King Zhantian Immortal King realm were in charge.
These elders also witnessed Su Xiuyi's extraordinary and unpredictable abilities.
And actually, this is the best choice.
After all, Battle Heaven Sect had once joined Sword Gate, but now the alliance has been completely shattered, and some of Sword Gate's sword immortals have directly integrated into Great Zhou and become part of Great Zhou. If Battle Heaven Sect chooses to become independent now, it can ensure the continuation of its lineage, but it will also create a distinction between close and distant relatives.
"In that case, let's join the Great Zhou Imperial Clan!"
"We can't wait any longer; if we wait any longer, we won't be well-liked."
"Someone, immediately send a letter to the royal palace, stating the decision of our Battle Heaven Sect."
Upon hearing Immortal King Zhantian's words, those present frowned slightly, their faces showing confusion.
"Sect Master, aren't you going yourself?"
Everyone was puzzled as to why the Immortal King Zhantian didn't personally attend such an important event, as that would have added to its significance.
"No need. The current powerhouses of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan are almost all deeply immersed in enlightenment. Even if I went there in person now, I wouldn't be granted an audience."
"Perhaps we will witness an incredible scene today."
The Immortal King Zhantian, recalling Su Xiuyi's slaying of the Heavenly Dao today and the fact that all the direct descendants of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan were in seclusion, naturally had his own guesses.
From Su Xiuyi's domineering sword Immortal King Zhantian understood that it was highly likely that Su Xiuyi would step into the realm of Immortal Emperor today.
Those people seem to have received Su Xiuyi's help, and there is a high possibility that countless Immortal King will be born. This is also why Immortal King Zhantian hurriedly came out of seclusion to discuss whether to integrate into the Great Zhou.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, their expressions becoming even more complicated, and they all went into seclusion once again.
Above the Gods and Devils Battlefield, in that instant, Su Xiuyi sat cross-legged, her entire body seemingly transformed into a black vortex, with terrifying Power of Heaven and Earth and Spiritual Qi pouring into her body.
Even though the Gods and Devils Battlefield is a shattered world, it would be very easy for several Immortal Emperor to be born. However, Su Xiuyi's foundation was too terrifying, making it extremely difficult for her to break through to the next realm.
As the terrifying power of the laws surged into her body, Su Xiuyi's body and its terrifying speed underwent a transformation in that instant.
Within Su Xiuyi's physical body, in that instant, ten thousand dragons roared, and streams of law power were transformed into dragon shadows by Su Xiuyi.
Now, having cultivated the evolved version of the Ancestral Dragon Formula, Su Xiuyi's Dragon Power has become even purer and more domineering.
At first, only the roar of a divine dragon could be heard emanating from within its body.
Gradually, dragon shadows appeared around Su Xiuyi's body.
In that instant, Su Xiuyi seemed to transform into the progenitor of the Dragon Race.
At the same time, Su Xiuyi suddenly opened her eyes, instantly breaking through the bottleneck and stepping into the realm of Immortal Emperor.
An overwhelmingly domineering aura erupted from Su Xiuyi's body.
A colossal dragon shadow, brimming with an ancient aura, appeared in the void of the Gods and Devils Battlefield.
The dragon's shadow stretched for tens of thousands of miles, suppressing heaven and earth. Its terrifying and unparalleled dragon might made all the cultivators on the Gods and Devils Battlefield tremble. That incomparably terrifying pressure intimidated everything.
"A breakthrough has been achieved."
"Today I have indeed stepped into the realm of the Immortal Emperor!"
"And just as I suspected, Su Xiuyi is indeed of extraordinary birth. The illusory image of the Ancestral Dragon suppresses heaven and earth; this bloodline is terrifying."
Even if Su Xiuyi is not currently included in the Imperial Su Clan's genealogy, with such extraordinary bloodline power, she is very likely to attract the attention of the Su Clan's patriarch once again.
"His bloodline is regressing to its ancestral form."
The Immortal King Zhantian suddenly stood up, staring in shock at the illusory image of the Ancestral Dragon in the void.
As the sect leader of the Battle Heaven Sect, Immortal King Zhantian had long suspected Su Xiuyi's identity.
The moment Su Xiuyi stepped into the Immortal Emperor realm, the shocked Immortal King Zhantian turned his gaze sharply toward the royal palace.
In that instant, all the experts of the Battle Heaven Sect widened their eyes, because at that moment, they sensed an incomparably domineering aura emanating from the royal palace.
Originally, the royal family wasn't particularly strong, but in an instant, to their astonishment, more than a dozen powerful figures at the Immortal King level appeared.
Those who had previously reached the Immortal King realm have all experienced a significant increase in strength, with some even reaching the Late-stage Immortal King in the blink of an eye.
In particular, the bloodline of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan is undergoing a bizarre transformation.
The aura was terrifyingly powerful.
"Just as I thought."
"What terrifying bloodline power! What terrifying Su Xiuyi!"
"No wonder that on this Southern Heaven Land, instead of establishing sects, they established a royal family."
"It seems they truly desire to unify the Southern Heaven Land and allow the Great Zhou Imperial Clan to rule the entire world."
At that moment, the Immortal King Zhantian Immortal King Zhantian was filled with excitement. He knew that his choice was right; only by following such a terrifying being could he go further.
Even though the Dark Moon Cult and the Sword Gate Sect have incredibly powerful foundations, their potential is far inferior to that of the Great Zhou Imperial Clan.
Such a power is most likely to rise completely before such a great calamity. Of course, Su Xiuyi has now chosen to locate the Great Zhou outside the Gods and Devils Battlefield, and Immortal King Zhantian does not know what the future holds.
Because once the Haotian World opens, the Great Zhou Imperial Clan will directly face the military might of the Haotian World.
Gods and Devils Battlefield.
A five-colored divine light descended from the void.
A terrifying imperial figure streaked across the sky.
In that instant, the terrifying and boundless imperial figure transformed into a Imperial Dao aura and entered Su Xiuyi's brow.
Su Xiuyi suddenly opened her eyes. Su Xiuyi had not yet absorbed the blessing bestowed by the Ancient Human Emperor.
Su Xiuyi used her skills to Capture and Seize and imprison this Imperial Dao power. The next moment, Su Xiuyi directly integrated this Ancient Human Emperor's aura into Su Yun's body, who had just broken through to a higher realm.
Su Yun, who had just entered the Mid-stage Immortal King, underwent a terrifying transformation in an instant, reaching the peak of the Immortal King realm in the blink of an eye.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Su Yun sensed his own transformation and immediately bowed to Su Xiuyi.
Su Xiuyi had already appeared above the Great Zhou Emperor Palace. Hearing Su Yun's words, Su Xiuyi smiled and said, "I am not good at governing the world. From now on, Su Yun will be the Emperor of my Great Zhou, leading the royal family and protecting all living beings."
Su Xiuyi directly chose to bestow power upon Su Yun, which was the key to Su Xiuyi's promotion of Su Yun, since Su Yun's strength was too weak and he was unable to suppress the officials.
Moreover, Su Xiuyi had just sensed a sense of responsibility within that Imperial Dao aura; if she were to refine it, she would be completely bound to the Human Race.
This could very likely create unimaginable consequences, so Su Xiuyi directly chose Su Yun with that Imperial Dao aura.
Su Yun indeed possesses the spirit of a king who dedicates himself to great things and strives for excellence.
As for Su Xiuyi, she has always been a hands-off manager and is used to it.
Su Xiuyi was more concerned with cultivation and improving her own strength than with becoming a high and mighty king.
We pay our respects to His Majesty the Zhou Emperor.
In that instant, all the figures in the hall turned their gazes to Su Yun and hurriedly bowed.
These people already knew Su Xiuyi's choice. After all, Su Yun had always been Su Xiuyi's spokesperson, and choosing Su Yun to Great Zhou Emperor was an indisputable fact.
"Seven days later, he will ascend the throne as emperor."
In that instant, Su Xiuyi's voice rang out again in the void.
After Su Xiuyi finished speaking, she took a deep breath and spoke softly. The words were not loud, but they strangely spread in all directions.
"Seven days from now, my Great Zhou the throne. I hope all forces will come to offer their congratulations."
Upon hearing this, the Immortal King Zhantian's expression changed slightly, and the elders of the Battle Heaven Sect gasped in shock. They had not expected Su Xiuyi to be so domineering.
The request for all forces to come and offer their congratulations appears to be an invitation, but it is actually a choice: if they do not participate in the coronation of the Great Zhou Emperor, then they are choosing to be hostile or neutral towards the Great Zhou Emperor.
From Su Xiuyi's words, they understood perfectly that Su Xiuyi would never allow a neutral party to exist.
" Your Human Emperor, aren't you being a little too hasty?"
All eyes were now on Su Xiuyi.
After all, the Great Zhou had just been established, and Su Yun felt that now was not the time to make enemies.
"Those who obey me prosper, those who oppose me perish; in chaotic times, harsh punishments are necessary."
"We don't have much time left. Catastrophe is imminent. We must unify the Southern Heaven."
"To repel external aggression, we must first pacify internal strife."
"I want to unify the world in the shortest possible time."
Everyone in the capital city changed their expressions slightly upon hearing Su Xiuyi's words, "Those who obey me prosper, those who oppose me perish."
But the next moment, their eyes lit up; in their eyes, Su Xiuyi was an invincible Heavenly God.
"Those who obey me prosper, those who defy me perish."
Those who obey me will prosper, those who defy me will perish!
In that instant, a series of sounds resounded through the sky.
