"Chief Elder, I..."
Chen Shu was shocked, his heart skipped a beat, and he could hardly believe his ears.
"Roll!"
The chief elder glared angrily, like a raging lion, and coldly shouted.
Chen Shu, pale-faced and dejected, lowered his head and fled in a panic.
He knew the chief elder's mind was made up, and that he had chosen the wrong side, so this fate was deserved.
If we don't leave now, we're likely to lose our lives here.
Su Nishang, standing to the side, was startled but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she did not collude with Chen Shu, but instead reported the matter to the elders and followed their advice.
Otherwise, Chen Shu's fate today would be her fate as well.
In everyone's eyes, the Ancient Heavenly Palace's move was undoubtedly an attempt to win over Li Xunyuan in order to depose the two Holy Sons.
Qin Ye, in particular, was caught in a sudden and unexpected disaster.
There's no way around it; sometimes, heaven and hell are separated by just a single thought.
Li Xunyuan pondered this for a moment.
As for becoming some kind of the Ancient Heavenly Palace holy son, he had little interest in it.
He was interested in the Yuanchu Sword Yuanchu Sword, an Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon; if he could bring it home...
On the other hand, going directly to take it seems a bit impolite.
But if you have a certain status, then it's different; everything has to be done with a legitimate reason.
What do you think, young friend?
The chief elder's palms were sweating; he was extremely nervous.
He desperately wanted to curry Li Xunyuan, as this was a decision made collectively by the entire Ancient Heavenly Palace.
Just when the chief elder thought Li Xunyuan disagreed.
The latter nodded and said, " The Heavenly Palace's influence is undeniable; if I, this divine son, were to refuse, it would be rather unreasonable."
"Haha, it is truly an honor for the Ancient Heavenly Palace that you, young friend, are appointed as the Young Palace Master!"
The chief elder threw his head back and laughed loudly, his laughter echoing across the surrounding area, his joy evident in his expression.
This scene filled the assembled cultivators with shame and envy.
If only they were the protagonists today.
The Ancient Heavenly Palace, which many geniuses would fight tooth and nail to enter, is now being described tonight as a humble abode.
This is enough to demonstrate just how amazing and unparalleled Li Xunyuan's talent and combat prowess truly are.
This just proves the old saying.
A mountain is not famous for its height, but for the immortals who dwell there; water is not sacred for its depth, but for the dragons that inhabit it.
"The rise of the Li Lineage is like True Dragon soaring into the heavens; no one can stop it."
Outside the Heavenly Palace, some of the older generation of cultivators were filled with sighs of admiration.
In this Primordial Dao Domain, who else could be a match for the Li Lineage?
Unless several major transcendent forces completely entrust their backs to each other and unite completely.
But this is easier said than done. Each faction harbors its own ulterior motives, and getting them to lower their guard and unite is as difficult as ascending to heaven!
The Chaos Lake Trial has thus come to an end, and the various prodigies have departed one after another.
It's likely that soon, news of Li Xunyuan awakening the mark of the Great Emperor Yuanchu and breaking the taboo of the Chaos Lake will spread throughout the entire Primordial Dao Domain.
After everyone left, the Ancient Heavenly Palace was quite generous and directly gave Li Xunyuan a Young Palace Master token.
With this token, you can enter any part of the Ancient Heavenly Palace, including the Treasure Vault.
However, after Li Xunyuan entered the treasure vault and thoroughly searched it inside and out, he still couldn't find any trace of the Yuanchu Sword.
This matter requires careful consideration; haste makes waste.
If the ancestors of the Ancient Heavenly Palace knew that Li Xunyuan was after the Yuanchu Sword, one wonders what they would think.
After his search proved fruitless, Li Xunyuan did not linger and left the Ancient Heavenly Palace, returning to the Li Lineage.
Meanwhile, news of what happened in the Ancient Heavenly Palace spread like wildfire, quickly becoming known throughout the entire Primordial Dao Domain.
The divine son of the Li Lineage awakened the imprint of the Great Emperor Yuanchu, causing the phantom of an Great Emperor to reappear in the world.
Secondly, the opponent also broke the record of the Great Emperor Yuanchu and reached the eighty-first level of Chaos Lake.
This also indirectly shows that the son of the Li Lineage is destined to become an emperor!
If the Emperor Road opens in the future, who will be his match?
For a time, the matter of Li Xukong defeating the Prince Xuan Tian was suppressed and no one mentioned it anymore.
Right now, Li Xunyuan's legendary deeds are the only true god, attracting countless people to talk about and discuss them.
"That kid is really something, can't he be a little more discreet?"
Although Li Qianqiu said that, the wide smile on his face revealed his state of mind; he couldn't have been happier.
The other elders of the Li Lineage were also excitedly dancing around.
In this golden age, Li Xunyuan and Li Xukong, along with a few others, were enough to uphold the prestige of the Li Lineage and dominate an era.
" Xunyuan, do you know that after the arrival of the golden age, the Heaven's Mandate Emperor Road will be opened?"
Inside the Li Lineage Divine Hall, Li Qianqiu summoned Li Xunyuan and spoke to him earnestly.
" The Heaven's Mandate Emperor Road?"
A glint of light flashed in Li Xunyuan's eyes; of course he had heard of it.
To achieve the ultimate imperial throne, one must first bear the destiny of the world and gain the approval of the Heavenly Dao.
"That's right, the Heaven's Mandate Emperor Road is related to the opportunity to become an emperor, and before the Emperor Road opens, an Ancient Realm will be born, called the Emperor Fall Battle Realm."
Li Qianqiu nodded, and then he explained in detail.
" The Emperor Fall Battle Realm originated in the era of the Fallen Emperors. Legend has it that powerful Great Emperor truly perished there, and their remains later evolved into an Ancient Realm, which is the so-called Emperor Fall Battle Realm."
"Over time, this place has become the guiding symbol of the Emperor Road; with the opening of the Battle Realm, the Emperor Road begins."
"Rumor has it that many of them possess imperial inheritances, which can rapidly enhance combat power, fully preparing them for the future opening of the Emperor Road."
As Li Qianqiu explained in detail, Li Xunyuan gradually understood the significance of the Emperor Fall Battle Realm.
As a preliminary step before the opening of the Emperor Road, this is undoubtedly a platform for comprehensive improvement, allowing the strength of all the geniuses to advance by leaps and bounds.
The Emperor Fall Battle Realm, as the prelude to the opening of the Emperor Road, has seen countless young emperors perish there.
No wonder it's called the Emperor Fall Battle Realm; there's a reason for it.
The matter of Chaos Lake also reached the ears of the higher-ups of the two forces, Xuanming Divine Mountain and Great Void Dragon Court.
The important figures on both sides were furious, expressing doubt and disbelief at the feat accomplished by Li Xunyuan.
The Longevity Li Family, the Immortal Yun Lineage, and the Ancient Heavenly Palace are now forming an alliance.
This is an extremely bad omen, especially for Xuanming Divine Mountain and Great Void Dragon Court.
" Ao Qingying of the Azure Dragon Lineage perished in the Three Lives Emperor Tomb, and this is inextricably linked to the divine son of the Li Lineage."
A powerful figure from the Great Void Dragon Court spoke with a gloomy expression and an icy tone.
"Our clan's dragon son, Ao Xuan, has reverted to his ancestral bloodline, inheriting the Ancestral Dragon Divine Ability. He has established the twelve Life Palace in one fell swoop and can even awaken the power of his ancestors to aid in battle. He will surely be able to annihilate that brat from the Li Lineage."
Another powerful figure from the Great Void Dragon Court said.
" The Emperor Fall Battle Realm will open soon. Just in case, I have sent someone to Xuanming Divine Mountain to form an alliance with it."
"With the fall of Xuan Yi, the first successor of Xuanming Divine Mountain, and the ancient freak also suffering losses at the hands of the Li Lineage, they will definitely not let this go."
"Very well, this is a sincere alliance between the two sides, to suppress the Li Lineage in the Emperor Fall Battle Realm!"
Inside the Great Void Dragon Court, many powerful figures at the ancestral level were exchanging ideas.
On the other side, Xuanming Divine Mountain did the same, sending envoys to Great Void Dragon Court.
This time, the two sides almost reached a consensus, their ideas coinciding without prior consultation.
"We need a comprehensive plan to deal with the Li Lineage, aiming for a decisive blow that leaves them no chance to breathe."
"Prepare for the Longevity War; this war is unavoidable."
The two Primordial Imperial Clan secretly finalized their plan, their tone extremely solemn.
However, before that, they need a flawless plan to ensure their successful withdrawal.
Otherwise, once the Longevity War begins, there will be no chance for regret; it will be a fight to the death.
" The Longevity Li Family won't be around for long!"
