Chapter 771 771 See how much he can endure
Chapter 772 772. S-grade · Blazing Sun Divine Domain
Action followed thought.
Clean red feet stepped on the believer’s chin, then slid up, the tip of the toes pressing against thin lips. Under the believer’s astonished, tightly contracted black eyes looking up, the woman in imperial dress’s snow-white feet directly stepped onto the center of the believer’s face!
“?!” Xia Feng was startled, not quite reacting.
“Don’t move,” a cold command rang out.
Xia Feng’s hand, which had begun to grip the woman in imperial dress’s ankle, froze.
“This is the punishment for your dull ignorance. I want you to endure it, and you must endure it. Do you have a problem with that?”
Xia Feng’s eyelids twitched. He had to admit that, from the way they liked to step on people with their feet, the Evil Empress and Miss Evil Dragon were truly alike.
And they both felt it was a form of punishment for him.
To be honest, being stepped on the face was nothing. He hadn’t been stepped on by Miss Evil Dragon before. Xia Feng’s heart was unperturbed.
Miss Evil Dragon had even stepped on him there, punishing him severely for a long time, and he had also been completely unperturbed.
Seeing Xia Feng so humiliated by her foot yet still able to suppress his anger, the woman in imperial dress couldn’t help but furrow her brows even tighter.
She had to admit that although this believer was arrogant, lazy, and disrespectful to the Divine Master, his willingness to abandon his dignity and compromise for the sake of his main body was indeed enough to show his sincerity.
But for some reason, the more Xia Feng was like this, the worse her mood became.
The Empress’s vertical pupils narrowed slightly. She used the sole of her foot to grind against the believer’s cheeks a few more times. The hot breath from her lips and nose felt warm and itchy. She couldn’t help but tremble on her shoulders and fall silent for a moment.
She suppressed her displeasure, pursed her lips, and said, “Where were we?”
“…” Seeing that the Empress had no intention of removing her foot, Xia Feng’s forehead broke out in black lines. He minimized the movement of his thin lips as he spoke, “You were saying that the major powers sent people to participate in the Sumeru War, and their purpose was not only to plunder the Sumeru Throne, but also to achieve other goals.”
“That’s correct.”
The woman in imperial dress nodded faintly. “According to the news I received, there is an S-grade spirit paper called ‘Blazing Sun Divine Domain’ within the Sumeru Realm. This is what Shang Jue wants to obtain.”
“Blazing Sun Divine Domain?” Xia Feng was startled. The name sounded somewhat familiar.
“This was originally the S-grade legacy of the Fourth Pillar. But after Pillar State Gu Yi died and Shang Jue became the Pillar State of the Fourth Pillar, this legacy, along with the Sumeru Throne, disappeared.”
“The so-called Sumeru Throne is actually the divine authority formed from Gu Yi’s S-grade spirit artifact. Due to the special nature of the divine authority’s abilities, it did not split into weakened divine relics, and maintained its integrity.”
“And in these 10,000 years, who knows what happened, causing the Sumeru Throne to give rise to the Sumeru War, leading so many people to fight for it…”
Listening to the Empress’s leisurely narration, Xia Feng was greatly shocked.
The Sumeru Throne was a divine authority formed from an S-grade spirit artifact?!
The Blazing Sun Divine Domain was an S-grade spirit paper?
Hiss– Then this Sumeru War was indeed worth going to. After all, even if he couldn’t get the Sumeru Throne, he had to get the Blazing Sun Divine Domain!
Moreover, the Blazing Sun Divine Domain was a spirit robe with the light attribute, which was a perfect fit for him!
“So, Shang Jue wants to send people to reclaim the Blazing Sun Divine Domain, this legacy spirit robe of the Fourth Pillar?” Xia Feng asked doubtfully.
“It is merely one of his objectives.”
The woman in imperial dress’s vertical pupils narrowed, her tone cold and eerie. “His true purpose is to use the Blazing Sun Divine Domain to deal with me.”
“Ah?” Xia Feng raised his eyes in surprise.
“Every S-grade spirit paper, besides being a carrier for S-grade spirit particle structures, possesses some special abilities of its own.”
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 during the Age of Gods. Later, during the chaotic Middle Ages, he reincarnated and cultivated again, 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-creating power, incorporated nine stars into the spirit paper of the Blazing Sun Divine Domain for energy conversion, transforming the unstable energies of various stars into ‘stellar energy’ that could be wielded. Later, he placed eight of these stars into the Heavenly Revelation Divine Palace to power the [Heavenly Revelation Barrier].”
“It is precisely because of the converged endless energy of these eight stars that the Heavenly Revelation Barrier has stood for 10,000 years, unbreached and unbreakable. Neither Shang Jue nor Huang Ye could possibly break through the barrier…”
“Wait…” Xia Feng finally couldn’t help but interrupt, astonished. “Your Majesty Empress, are you saying that the three current Pillar States are not on your side? And they have ill intentions towards you?”
The woman on the Imperial Seat remained silent for a moment, then pursed her lips and nodded. “The attitudes of Fule Shi and Huang Ye are unclear. I have been in slumber for too long. Even I cannot ascertain their purposes now.”
“The only one that can be confirmed is Shang Jue. Once he obtains the Blazing Sun Divine Domain and learns its basic principles, he will very likely come to the Heavenly Revelation Divine Palace to reclaim 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 actually didn’t wish for the Empress to awaken.
It seemed the Empress’s current situation was not good. After waking up from a slumber, everything had changed, and her strength had diminished to less than a tenth of its former power.
“That is to say, none of the subordinate forces of the three Pillar States can be trusted. What about the Apocalypse Knights?” Xia Feng asked again.
“…” The Empress fell silent again.
“No way, Your Majesty Empress, the Apocalypse Knights are also a problem? Aren’t they your confidant troops?” Xia Feng was somewhat speechless.
The Empress remained silent, merely staring silently at this loyal believer.
After a moment’s thought, she pursed her lips and said faintly:
“The Apocalypse Knights are still within controllable limits. However, they have split into two factions. One faction is loyal to me, and the other faction is loyal to the Empire. It cannot be said that the knights loyal to the Empire have betrayed me, because when I founded the Heavenly Revelation, the guiding principle I established was absolute loyalty to the Empire, prioritizing the Empire’s interests above all else.”
“Good heavens, are you lifting a rock only to drop it on your own feet?” Xia Feng was completely convinced and asked the final question:
“So, why does Shang Jue want to deal with you?”
The Empress, however, shook her head. “This matter is poisoned. If you wish to hear it, you must at least be in the Sacred Realm.”
Fine, another secret poison.
Xia Feng felt he needed to find an opportunity to have Miss Mu research this thing and create a method to counteract it.
Xia Feng’s black eyes narrowed slightly. “So, Your Majesty is telling me about this matter because…”
The woman on the Imperial Seat’s vertical pupils were stern, and she said in a deep voice, “I order you to obtain the Blazing Sun Divine Domain. Do not let this item fall into anyone’s hands but yours.”
Xia Feng smiled.
The corners of his lips spread into a wide grin.
With a flick, he slapped away the woman’s dirty foot, stood up gracefully, his chin held high in arrogance, his black eyes looking down condescendingly:
“Beg me.”
“?”
