Chapter 772: S-class Blazing Sun Divine Domain
As soon as she thought of it, she acted.
Her bare feet, adorned with vermillion toenails, pressed down on the believer’s chin, sliding upwards. The rounded tips of her toes then pressed against her thin lips. Under the believer’s shocked, contracted black eyes looking up, the woman in the imperial dress’s exquisite feet stepped directly onto the center of the believer’s face!
“?!” Xia Feng was startled, not quite understanding what was happening.
“Don’t move,” a deep voice commanded.
Xia Feng’s hand, which had been reaching to hold the woman in the imperial dress’s ankle, froze.
“This is your punishment for your dull ignorance. I want you to bear it, and you must bear it. Do you have any objections?”
Xia Feng’s eyelids twitched. He had to admit that in their fondness for stepping on people, the Evil Empress and Miss Evil Dragon were truly alike.
And they both thought it was a form of punishment for him.
To be honest, being stepped on the face was nothing new. He’d been stepped on by Miss Evil Dragon before, and it hadn’t fazed him.
Miss Evil Dragon had even stepped on much more sensitive areas and punished him severely for a long time, yet he had remained unfazed.
Seeing Xia Feng endure such humiliation by her foot without reacting, the woman in the imperial dress’s brow furrowed even tighter.
She had to admit, even though this believer was arrogant, lazy, and disrespectful to the Divine Master, his sincerity in willing to abandon his dignity and compromise for his main body was indeed enough to show his true feelings.
But for some reason, the more Xia Feng acted this way, the worse she felt.
Her vertical pupils narrowed slightly, and she pressed the sole of her foot firmly into the believer’s cheek a few more times. The hot breath from her lips and nose was somewhat warm and ticklish. She couldn’t help but tremble slightly on her shoulders, falling silent for a moment.
Suppressing her displeasure, she pursed her lips and said, “Where were we just now?”
“…” Seeing that the woman in the imperial dress had no intention of lifting her foot, Xia Feng’s forehead broke out in black lines. He minimized the movement of his lips as he spoke, “You were saying that the various major powers sent people to participate in the Sumeru War, and their purpose was not only to plunder the Sumeru Throne, but they also had other designs.”
“That’s correct.”
The woman in the imperial dress nodded slightly. “According to the news I received, within the Sumeru Realm, there is an S-class Spirit Paper called ‘Blazing Sun Divine Domain.’ This is what Shang Jue wants to obtain.”
“Blazing Sun Divine Domain?” Xia Feng was startled, feeling the name was somewhat familiar.
“This was originally the S-class Legacy of the Fourth Pillar. But ever since Pillar State Gu Yi died and Shang Jue became the Pillar State of the Fourth Pillar, this Legacy, along with the Sumeru Throne, disappeared without a trace.”
“The so-called Sumeru Throne is actually the divine authority transformed from Gu Yi’s S-class Spirit Artifact. And because of the special nature of the divine authority’s abilities, it did not split into divine relics with greatly weakened effects, maintaining its completeness.
And over these ten thousand years, who knows what happened that caused the Sumeru Throne to give rise to the Sumeru War, leading so many people to contend for it…”
Listening to the woman in the imperial dress’s leisurely narration, Xia Feng was greatly astonished.
The Sumeru Throne was a divine authority transformed from an S-class Spirit Artifact?!
The Blazing Sun Divine Domain was an S-class Spirit Paper?
Hiss— then this Sumeru War is indeed worth the trip. At any rate, even if he couldn’t obtain the Sumeru Throne, he had to obtain the Blazing Sun Divine Domain!
Moreover, the Blazing Sun Divine Domain was a Light attribute Spirit Robe, which was very compatible with him!
“So, Shang Jue wants to send people to retrieve the Blazing Sun Divine Domain, this Legacy Spirit Robe of the Fourth Pillar?” Xia Feng asked doubtfully.
“That is just one of his objectives.”
The woman in the imperial dress’s vertical pupils narrowed, and her tone was cold and eerie. “His true purpose is to use the Blazing Sun Divine Domain against me.”
“Ah?” Xia Feng looked up in surprise.
“Each S-class Spirit Paper, in addition to being a carrier for the S-class Spirit Particle Structure, possesses some special abilities in itself.”
The Empress continued to explain, “For example, the Moon Time Divine Domain Spirit Paper of the Black Moon can be used to activate the Miracle Star River and connect to the Astral Realm.”
“And the Spirit Paper of the Blazing Sun Divine Domain can be used to—store stars.”
“?”
Store what? Xia Feng suspected he had misheard.
“Gu Yi was an eighth-order Star God who existed since the Age of Gods. Later, during the chaotic ancient times, he reincarnated and cultivated, eventually achieving the ninth-order Heavenly God. He was also the first general to follow me in conquering the world.”
“Gu Yi, with his world-opening might, incorporated nine stars into the Spirit Paper of the Blazing Sun Divine Domain for energy conversion, transforming the unstable energies of various stars into usable ‘star energy.’
Later, he placed eight of these stars into the Heavenly Revelation Divine Palace to power the Heavenly Revelation Divine Palace’s ‘Heavenly Revelation Barrier.’
It is precisely this endless energy accumulated from these eight stars that allowed the Heavenly Revelation Barrier to remain unbroken and impregnable for ten thousand years. Neither Shang Jue nor Huang Ye could possibly break through the barrier…”
“Wait…” Xia Feng finally couldn’t help but interrupt, his voice filled with surprise. “Your Majesty Empress, are you saying that the current three Pillar States are not allied with you anymore? And they bear ill will towards you?”
The woman on the imperial seat was silent for a moment, then pursed her lips and nodded. “The attitudes of Fule Shi and Huang Ye are unclear. I have been asleep for too long, and even I cannot discern their purposes now.”
“The only one I can be certain of is Shang Jue. After he obtains the Blazing Sun Divine Domain, as long as he learns its basic principles, he will most likely come to the Heavenly Revelation Divine Palace to retrieve the eight stars, causing the Heavenly Revelation Barrier to collapse.”
Good heavens, the more Xia Feng listened, the more shocked he became, and at the same time, he understood many things.
No wonder Teacher Freya had said before that many people in the empire’s high command did not wish for the Empress to awaken.
It seemed that the Empress’s current situation was not good. After waking up, everything had changed, and her strength had diminished by more than ninety percent.
“That is to say, among the subordinates of the three Pillar States, none can be trusted. What about the Apocalypse Knights?” Xia Feng asked again.
“…” The Empress fell silent again.
“No way, Your Majesty! The Apocalypse Knights are also a problem? Aren’t they your confidants?” Xia Feng was somewhat speechless.
The Empress remained silent, simply staring at this loyal believer.
After a moment’s thought, she pursed her lips and said softly:
“The Apocalypse Knights are still within a controllable scope, but they have split into two factions.
One faction is loyal to me, and the other faction is loyal to the Empire. It’s not that the knights loyal to the Empire have betrayed me, because when I created the Heavenly Revelation, the guiding principle was absolute loyalty to the Empire, prioritizing the Empire’s interests above all else.”
Good heavens, did you hoist yourself by your own petard? Xia Feng was completely convinced and asked his last question:
“So, why does Shang Jue want to deal with you?”
The Empress, however, shook her head. “This matter has been poisoned. If you wish to hear it, you must at least reach the Sacred Realm.”
Fine, another secret poison.
Xia Feng felt that he needed to find an opportunity to have Miss Mu research this thing and create a method to break it.
Xia Feng’s black eyes narrowed. “So, Your Majesty telling me this matter means…”
The woman on the imperial seat’s vertical pupils were stern, and she said in a deep voice, “I command you, you must obtain the Blazing Sun Divine Domain. Do not let this item fall into anyone’s hands but yours.”
Xia Feng chuckled.
The corners of his lips stretched wide.
He slapped away the woman’s dirty feet, stood up leisurely, his chin held high, his black eyes looking down with disdain.
“Beg me.”
“?”
