Chapter 4220: The Imperial Scroll appears
Editor: Henyee Translations
The Imperial Clan was arrogant. They were the descendants of Great Emperors, and they also had the Imperial Weapon keeping watch. Basically, there were also Saints in their clan. This was the basis for their pride.
Meanwhile, the Imperial Son was especially proud. If nothing unexpected happened, they had a very high chance of becoming Saints. In an era when there was no Emperor in the world, Saints were the representatives of the strongest battle prowess.
The Golden Generation, one of the strongest among the Imperial Sons, or possibly the strongest generation in history. They looked down on everyone, including the Imperial Sons that came after them.
Thus, what was Ling Han, the Buddha Son of the West Heavenly Realm, worth in the eyes of the Golden Generation?
An ant!
Ling Han, the large black dog, and the little azure dragon looked at each other. They all hid their anger deeply. There was too much of a gap between their cultivation levels, so what did it matter if they were angered?
“These b@stards, just wait and see. Grandpa Dog will eventually make all of you kneel down and proclaim your conquest,” the large black dog communicated through divine sense.
Ling Han and the little azure dragon didn’t speak, but in their hearts, they obviously said the same thing.
All the Imperial Sons did not speak further. Some were impatient, and flew out of the lotus platform, to search once more in the vast sea. Some chatted with that terrified young man, trying to get some information, while others continued to sit cross-legged, appearing to be in no hurry at all.
After Ling Han and the others waited for two days, they left quietly. Then, they immediately used the Void Beast hide to cover themselves.
Xiu, xiu! Immediately, three figures followed them.
Imperial Son Yuan, Imperial Son Yuan and another that Ling Han and the others did not recognize, but he was naturally another member of the Golden Generation.
“They have treasures that can hide their tracks,” Lin Xuan said calmly. Previously, he had wanted to kill Ling Han and the others, but when he arrived, he had lost track of those three people.
“Let me take a look,” the unknown Imperial Son said. His forehead split open, and a slit eye appeared. It suddenly exploded with divine light that shot out in all directions.
“Brother Ming’s Void Eye can see through all falsehoods, and is comparable to Saint Tier. I am sure that in front of you, those three ants would have nowhere to hide.” Imperial Son Yuan clapped his hands, smiling.
The Imperial Son smiled faintly, appearing to be completely unconcerned, but there was an expression of pride on his face.
However, after scanning the surroundings, he didn’t discover anything.
This was a little awkward.
Killing intent instantly rose up in the Imperial Son Ming’s heart. At first, he was completely unconcerned about taking the lives of three ants. He had only chased after them for the sake of obtaining the token of the Descending Heaven Holy Emperor. However, when he swept his gaze over the surroundings, he did not find Ling Han and the others. This caused him to fly into a humiliated rage. Naturally, killing intent overflowed from him.
A mere ant actually dared to embarrass him?
However, where were they?
The Imperial Son Ming looked towards the depths of the great ocean again, but with this look, he gave a muffled humph, and the light that had shot out from his slitted eye instantly dimmed.
“Brother Ming!” Imperial Son Xuan and Imperial Son Yuan both called out at the same time. They were not really concerned about Imperial Son Ming, but rather that Imperial Son Ming was the best candidate to find Ling Han and the others.
The Imperial Son shook his head, saying, “The Holy Emperor’s mind can’t be offended. My soul light was almost destroyed!”
When these words fell, both Imperial Son Xuan and Imperial Son Yuan were solemn. They were inside the corpse of a Great Emperor, so who cared if they were members of the Golden Generation or not? In front of Imperial Might, they were like ants.
They were unwilling to give up, and after searching a few more times, they could only reluctantly return.
At this moment, Ling Han and the others were in the sea.
They did not dive into the deep sea, and merely allowed the ocean waters to submerge them.
“As expected, the seawater can conceal our tracks,” Ling Han said with a smile.
“The Great Emperor’s mind has great power even after death!” The large black dog nodded as well. Then, he suddenly said, “Little Han, that mysterious sea of blood that contains the corpses of countless Saints… could it also be the Great Emperor’s mind?”
Ling Han pondered for a moment. That was an unsolved mystery. Even if the Saint brought the Imperial Weapon with him, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
Could it be the Great Emperor’s mind?
But what Great Emperor would be so bloodthirsty, and have killed so many Saints? Furthermore, it was definitely impossible that there would be so many Saints in a single era. It should be the accumulation of several dozen generations.
The problem was, could even a Great Emperor be able to live for such a long time?
Thus, no one could solve this mystery, unless a new Emperor appeared, and he could charge in alone. Only then would he be able to understand its secrets.
Ling Han did not speak further. He entered into the world of the tortoise shell, and began to play out the last emotion of the Seven Emotions.
Shock.
To him, panicking was an extremely rare thing. Thus, he mulled over it for a very, very long time before he finally found the feeling.
Instantly, several pillars of light attacked.
Pa, Ling Han instantly fell out of the world of the tortoise shell. Then, he suddenly discovered that this tortoise shell was moving on its own. Multiple patterns were changing, as if it was relating some supremely mysterious principle.
The little azure dragon and the large black dog approached at the same time, staring at each other closely.
“Imperial Scroll!”
After a long while, they called out at the same time.
As it turned out, the Imperial Scroll was actually with them all this while, but the divine item kept itself hidden, and would not manifest at all. Only when the Emperor’s corpse appeared, and they played out the seven emotions, did the Imperial Scroll finally appear.
It was also possible that the Imperial Scroll should be inside the Great Emperor’s corpse. The tortoise shell was only a vessel, and one had to pass seven stages before it would appear through the tortoise shell.
En, the latter deduction should be more logical.
Ling Han thought to himself. Then, he hurriedly suppressed these distracting thoughts, focusing his full attention on the Imperial Scroll.
The Imperial Scroll was the true effort of a Great Emperor, and was a summary of the path that he had taken. Thus, if one cultivated the Imperial Scroll, the chances of becoming a Saint was much higher than cultivating the cultivation technique of a Saint.
However, if one was completely immersed in the Imperial Scroll, they definitely could not possibly become an Emperor.
—If one had walked before them, that would only be an imitation. The heaven and earth would not favour this kind of imitator.
Thus, for those who had ambitions to become Emperor, Imperial Scrolls could only be used as reference.
Ling Han only used the Imperial Scroll as a means to stimulate the Imperial Technique, and it was only for the sake of increasing his battle prowess.
Obtaining the Imperial Scroll would make up for the last shortcoming in his battle prowess.
After a whole three days, the tortoise shell finally managed to fully perform the Imperial Scroll. Next, it began to perform something new.
This time, it was the Imperial Technique.
The Descending Heaven Holy Emperor had suppressed the darkness all those years ago, and his battle prowess was publicly acknowledged as one of the top three or even the strongest in history. Just how powerful was the Imperial Technique that he had created?
“Ice Moon Saber!”
This was the first Imperial Technique Technique, but it wasn’t a saber technique. After reaching the cultivation level of Great Emperor, one no longer needed to rely on external items. They themselves were the strongest.
Thus, this Ice Moon Saber was a technique that could be displayed through fist techniques, palm techniques, and so on. When it was delivered, it would turn into a divine saber that could destroy everything.
After the Ice Moon Saber, the tortoise shell began to evolve into the Imperial Scroll again.
“You only have one Imperial Technique?” the large black dog asked in slight defiance.
Ling Han smiled, “If it is considered an ultimate move, one would be enough.”
“Haha, let’s see who can grasp the Imperial Scroll first,” the little azure dragon immediately said.
“All right!”
The three of them sat down in cross-legged positions, and began to comprehend.
However, the Imperial Scroll was really too hard to understand. This was the Imperial Scroll in which a Great Emperor had condensed the path he had walked, and used a method of simplification to teach this kind of comprehension to others.
