Chapter 5684: The Loss of Vitality

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Before he left, Mie Sheng transformed into the Temple of World Annihilation.

If Mie Sheng truly had no worries, why would he enter the Temple of World Annihilation instead of directly besieging the Qishen Temple?

Perhaps he also had some kind of flaw.

Just like Zhen Ling.

Zhen Ling had the Origin Source Sea, which could sustain vitality indefinitely. Plus, when he left, he helped Zhen Ling restore the flesh of the Qishen.

Just maintaining the vitality of the flesh alone took him a very long time.

If he were truly a scattered Seven Tribulations, he would probably have spent countless epochs.

Thats not something a Six Tribulation realm could compare to.

An Eight Tribulation realm with severe vitality loss.

Jian Wushuang was speechless.

For a moment, in a daze, it was time for the banquet to disperse.

Ten minutes past midnight.

Looking up, the stars in the sky glittered brightly.

These visible lights were not stars, but universes.

Each universe represented a master of the Three Tribulations.

In this Starry Sky, Jian Wushuang saw several dazzling universes, immense and vast.

They should be universes of the Seven Tribulations.

As for the Eight Tribulation Universe Masters, they should still exist in the Moro Spacetime, but they couldnt be seen at all.

Those old guys could either incorporate the universe into their bodies or hide it in the chaos of spacetime, making it impossible for outsiders to find.

Wu Li and Jian Wushuang stood panting, waiting for Muchen in a courtyard of the Wood Kings Mansion.

Wushuang, lost in thought? Wu Li looked at Jian Wushuang staring into the sky, at a loss for words.

Jian Wushuang shook his head and said, Not really, just thinking, will the formation of these universes become a constraint on the Tribulation Realm!

Haha, you have a lot of thoughts, brother, but there is some truth to it. The universes are born above the Ancient Wood Continent and cannot be moved unless they become the Eight Tribulation realm! Wu Li also looked up at the stars, able to see his own universe at a glance, then continued, I once thought the same, but now, at this stage, where is there such lofty ambition? If I can reach the Five Tribulation realm in my lifetime, I will be satisfied!

Yeah!

The stronger one becomes, the clearer their future becomes.

For Wu Li, a Universe Master at the Half-Step Four Tribulation realm, breaking through to this level was already quite commendable.

Ever since he gained control over the universe, Wu Li had accumulated countless epochs, and it wasnt long before he would face his next tribulation. With his current strength and foundation, he had little to worry about.

However, upon reaching the Four Tribulation realm, anxiety started creeping in.

Despite his current combat prowess, advancing through the tribulation earlier was feasible. Yet, once he succeeded in this tribulation and reached the Four Tribulation realm, he had no certainty of overcoming the fifth tribulation.

Rather than rushing to break through, he decided to accumulate more strength and experience.

At least when the opportunity of the fifth tribulation presents itself, he would attempt the fourth tribulation.

Many peak third tribulation experts shared this sentiment.

But in the end, forced tribulations became inevitable. Upon reaching the Four Tribulation realm, lacking any fortuitous encounters, they could only anxiously wait.

Eventually, they would become disheartened, falling into solitary cultivation.

Jian Wushuang sighed inwardly, but he wasnt particularly troubled.

Controlling the universe meant his existence wasnt confined to the Ancient Moon Spacetime; instead, the universe condensed within his own body.

That was the advantage of the Extreme Dao.

He wasnt bound by the Rule Laws of this particular realm.

However, it wasnt as easy for the others who accompanied him to the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

After reaching the Tribulation Realm, they were likely to establish themselves in the Ancient Moon Spacetime. Even if they returned to the Original Universe, they would ultimately find themselves back in the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

Establishing themselves meant becoming part of the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

Jian Wushuang shook his head, pushing these thoughts aside.

What mattered now was securing their spots. Time was running out for them.

The Sacred Assembly would take place in just ten years, as per the recent information Wu Li had received.

Creak!

The door to the courtyard creaked open, revealing Elder Muchen.

However, the current Elder Muchen appeared far from the spirited figure seen in the main hall, instead showing signs of aging.

Muchen, Elder Muchen!

Elder Muchen!

The two hurried forward to greet him.

Elder Muchen waved his hand casually, saying, There are no outsiders here, no need for formalities, sit down and lets talk!

The three of them sat in a pavilion, and Wuli demonstrated his attentiveness by pouring tea for Muchen and Jian Wushuang.

Cough! Elder Muchen didnt hesitate to take a sip of tea.

Jian Wushuang and Wuli waited for Elder Muchen to speak.

With tea drank and everyone gathered, Elder Muchen adjusted his robes and got straight to the point.

Since we are all insiders, I wont hide anything from you. This time, the recruitment of a son-in-law is a last resort!

As Elder Muchen recounted the situation, Jian Wushuang and Wu Li listened in amazement.

It turned out that Princess Jincheng, since childhood, had lived with her grandfather in the Shi Kingdom and only returned to Yue Kingdom after becoming an Immortal talent.

During her mortal years, she had been engaged to a prodigy from Shi Kingdom.

However, with the rise of the Empress, the future imperial throne was likely to be Princess Jinchengs, and the engagement was put on hold.

If it were that simple, there wouldnt have been so many troubling times afterward.

That prodigy from Shi Kingdom was no ordinary person; he was a scion of the royal family, with a background that couldnt be overlooked despite not being a direct heir.

For a scion of Shi Kingdoms royal family to marry into another kingdom would bring shame upon Shi Kingdom.

Yet, both parties were unwilling to let go.

The prodigy had even chased after Princess Jincheng to Yue Kingdom and was currently in the imperial palace.

Furthermore, he had made it clear that he would agree to call off the engagement only if the Emperor who married Princess Jincheng could defeat him.

Jian Wushuang furrowed his brows upon hearing this and remarked, Hes quite persistent!

Unfortunately, the royal family of Yue Kingdom wouldnt allow this marriage.

Whether it was for the dignity of Shi Kingdom or the power of the royal family of Yue Kingdom, Princess Jinchengs marriage to him was impossible.

However, since they had known each other since childhood, forcibly breaking them apart wouldnt be easy.

Indeed! Elder Muchen shook his head, saying, Blame it on our current Emperor. He insisted on sending that little girl to Shi Kingdom for training. Now that shes grown up, he doesnt understand the struggles of the royal family!

One from the royal family of Shi Kingdom, the other a legitimate heir of Yue Kingdoms royal family.

In terms of background and strength, they were a suitable match.

But marriage was out of the question.

Yue Kingdom feared inviting trouble, while Shiguo feared losing face.

The latter could be overcome, but the former was absolutely unacceptable. No matter what, they couldnt allow a scion of Shi Kingdoms royal family to marry into Yue Kingdom.

It was a matter that threatened the imperial power.

Elder, just tell me what needs to be done! Jian Wushuang seemed to understand the implication.

Wu Li also stared at Muchen.

In fact, its simple. Defeat that prodigy from Shi Kingdom and make him give up! Elder Muchen said.

Upon hearing this, Wuli felt a surge of relief.

That sounded too easy.

But Muchen didnt know Jian Wushuangs true strength. He was still worried and couldnt bring himself to discourage Jian Wushuang.
