Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jing Ya looked at Jun Wu Xie, unable to speak for a long time.

She had been following him for so many years, believing she knew him well enough.

Unexpectedly, he possessed such astonishing secrets that she was unaware of.

For some reason, Jing Ya felt a strange pang of sorrow in her heart.

She knew very well that this was Jun Wu Xie's greatest secret, one that even his empress might not know.

Yet, she couldn't suppress a sense of loss in her heart.

It is said that the eyes are the window to the soul, and the emotional changes within her caused a flash of dimness in her eyes.

Although it was only fleeting, it was keenly captured by Jun Wu Xie.

"Well, what's wrong with my Aunt Jing?"

Jun Wu Xie asked knowingly, a faint smile on his lips.

"You're still laughing, always bullying Aunt Jing, you little rascal, you're so bad!"

Jing Ya's resentful expression was tinged with a bit of shyness and annoyance.

"Alright, alright, don't be resentful, my good Aunt Jing. After all, it concerns the Heavenly Emperor, so I haven't mentioned it to anyone. It has nothing to do with trust."

"You… you said Heavenly Emperor?"

Jing Ya was dumbfounded, staring blankly at him, this was simply too shocking to her mind.

She thought it was the Universe Emperor, but unexpectedly, it was the legendary Heavenly Emperor!

The Great Emperor Realm was already an incredibly powerful existence, let alone the Universe Emperor, who was even higher.

As for the Heavenly Emperor, that was the highest realm that cultivators had been able to reach since ancient times!

It was said that there were realms above the Heavenly Emperor, but she didn't know what those realms were.

No one had ever been heard of breaking through to that unknown realm since ancient times, so the Heavenly Emperor Realm was already supreme!

Who would have thought that Wu Xie would have a Heavenly Emperor backing him? The strength of such a background was beyond words.

Even the Heavenly Emperor valued him and supported him, which showed how heaven-defying his potential was.

Thinking of this, Jing Ya felt immense pride and satisfaction in her heart.

Soon, she remembered learning about Jun Wu Xie's growth history when she was in the Lower Realm.

During those years, a very important and mysterious figure appeared many times, backing him up and giving him strong support.

That person was the Military Saint, and he was also known as the Military Saint's disciple!

"Wu Xie, the Heavenly Emperor you mentioned… could she be… the Military Saint?"

Connecting the dots, she felt that it was possible.

Jun Wu Xie smiled slightly upon hearing this, and said, "It is her, the Ancestor of Military Dao."

Jing Ya was somewhat dazed for a moment.

This meant that since Jun Wu Xie's body recovered at the age of fifteen and he embarked on the path of cultivation again, he had been cultivating the Heavenly Emperor's techniques and using the Heavenly Emperor's divine powers.

However, over the years, that Heavenly Emperor had only appeared during certain special periods to deter certain forces and prevent older powerhouses from obliterating him, and had not taken action at other times.

"If you encounter difficulties and need that Heavenly Emperor to take action, can you summon her?"

Jing Ya wanted to know if that Heavenly Emperor could be summoned by him. If that Heavenly Emperor only appeared when she wanted to help, it didn't seem very reliable.

"Of course, at any time, if I request it, the Heavenly Emperor will definitely appear."

Jun Wu Xie responded in this way. The Heavenly Emperor he referred to was not only Ye Qingxue, but also Zhuque.

"Mm ~"

Hearing such an answer, Jing Ya felt completely at ease. She gently nestled her whole body in his arms, hugging him even tighter.

"So, Aunt Jing must obediently listen to me, and you are not allowed to act on your own in anything. If you do that again, I will really be angry!"

Jun Wu Xie's voice and tone became a little heavier when he said the last sentence.

"I know ~"

Jing Ya snuggled her head into his arms, clinging tightly to him, feeling the warmth emanating from his body, and listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat, she only felt very at ease in her heart.

"Now, quickly regulate your breathing. Your essence, energy, and spirit are severely depleted. I will purify the Saint Ancestor-level energy of that Red Dust Desire and send it into your body."

"No, there's no need at all, it would be too wasteful."

Jing Ya stopped him, saying that it would be a waste of high-quality energy. Although she was very weak now, she could fully recover on her own, and with the passage of time, the recovery speed would become faster and faster.

Now that the Exquisite is guarding the dynasty, there is no fear of strong enemies attacking. During this period, she can safely recuperate.

"Since that's the case, so be it, just recuperate slowly. However, I won't allow you to take action again in the future. Even if there are strong enemies, you don't need to come. The sleeping Heavenly Dao has already awakened once because of your Dao Fruit. It seems that even if she continues to sleep, she won't sleep as deeply as before, and her perception of your Dao Fruit's aura will be much more acute than before. If you release the power of the Dao Fruit again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape her perception."

"Mm, Aunt Jing will listen to you."

"Then rest well, get some sleep, and recover slowly, there's no rush."

Jun Wu Xie hugged her and pulled the quilt over her.

Jing Ya quietly nestled in his arms. Before long, her breathing became even, and a slight sound escaped from her nose.

Jun Wu Xie lowered his head and stared at her face. She actually fell asleep so quickly, her sensual lips slightly pursed, as if she had thought of something happy in her dream.

He maintained this posture, not moving at all, for fear of waking her.

At the same time, he used his blood energy to cover the inner layer of his body's skin, forming an inner barrier, and then began to devour the Saint Emperor Realm powerhouse, purifying energy, transforming life essence, deriving blood energy, expanding the Star Sea, and strengthening his physical body.

All the momentum within his body was isolated by his inner barrier, and there was no sound or movement outside.

Of course, this method only applies to situations where the speed of devouring and transformation is deliberately reduced, otherwise the blood energy within the body would surge too violently, and the inner barrier would not be able to effectively isolate it.

While cultivating his realm, Jun Wu Xie did not forget to improve the Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Star Sea.

Since he had this idea and put it into action, the completion of the Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Star Sea is already very high today.

It can be said that the Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Star Sea has completed most of it, and only the details remain to be carved.

Once completed, Jun Wu Xie believes that his Star Sea amplification will greatly increase, far more than the previous three times.

In addition to this, the characteristics of the Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Star Sea will also allow him to open up a Star Sea Cave Heaven, in which case he can truly achieve the simultaneous cultivation of martial arts and other ways, without interference or influence!

By then, his strength will be improved again!

… …

At the same time, in the most fertile area of the Central Realm, an endless distance away from Qingzhou in the Eastern Realm—Heavenly Dao State, there is an extremely large force, not to mention in Canglan Ancient Star, even in the starry sky it is one of the behemoths, stepping into the ranks of top forces.

This force is the Heavenly Dao Academy.

The Heavenly Dao Academy is located in Heavenly Dao City, Heavenly Dao State, Central Realm.

This city is very huge. The entire city is ruled and managed by the Heavenly Dao Academy. The academy is the most sacred place in the world for the people of this city.

Heavenly Dao City is very lively, with busy streets, a constant stream of people and horses, and a prosperous scene.

On both sides of the tall city gate, there are many guards holding long weapons, wearing armor.

These are the Heavenly Soldiers who maintain the order of Heavenly Dao City, each with a cold expression.

Heavenly Soldiers can also be seen patrolling back and forth on the street.

The area south of this city belongs to the sacred area.

There, there are towering mountains, and the Heavenly Dao Academy is built in those mountains.

The highest main peak is where the Heavenly Dao Academy is located. You can see four huge characters, which sometimes appear in the clouds on the top of the mountain—Heavenly Dao Academy!

The heaven and earth vitality here is too rich. It is already extremely rich in the city, and when you reach the mountain area, it is so rich that it is almost impossible to dissolve it.

It is said that there is a top-level ninth-grade dragon vein under this city, as well as several eighth-grade intermediate dragon veins, so that the environment of this giant city has evolved like a cultivating fairyland.

On both sides of the streets in the city, those ordinary trees are full of holy spirit energy, and even the weeds on the roadside contain holy spirit vitality.

In such a city, even a pig can cultivate to a realm over time.

Therefore, there are countless cultivators in this Heavenly Dao City, and the number of high-realm powerhouses is also amazing.

This does not include the Heavenly Dao Academy in that mountain.

The Heavenly Dao Academy is built deep in the clouds, looking very mysterious and ethereal, like a fairy palace, looming in the smoke and clouds.

The Heavenly Dao Academy is very quiet and harmonious. There are many students inside, but they either quietly listen to the teachers teaching cultivation knowledge, or silently comprehend and cultivate in their own cave.

Heavenly Dao Temple, the place where the high-level officials of the Heavenly Dao Academy deliberate and gather.

At this time, the Dean of the Heavenly Dao Academy and the elders of the Heavenly Dao Academy are all gathered here.

"Since we have all sensed it, it cannot be anyone's illusion! The Heavenly Dao may have really awakened, but there was no sign beforehand, and there may be something strange about it."

Someone made such a sound in the temple.

"Everyone, elders, don't be impatient. The Elder Kings are already communicating with the Heavenly Dao on the Tongtian Altar, and they will soon know the truth."

The Dean of the Heavenly Dao Academy sat upright, gently stroking his gray beard, and his plain eyes concealed a palpitating sharpness.
