Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu

Under the night, Li Chonghuan and Feng Yi both received news from the South Gate.

"Is the corpse with the weakest imperial aura the real one?"

The two exchanged glances, bringing the Princes they supported and rushed into the Imperial Palace to search for the true Emperor's Corpse.

Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Destiny Hall, Chen Qing and Ji Shang continued to observe the battles throughout the imperial capital. Whenever they saw an ally about to lose, Chen Qing would intervene personally, transporting them into the hall and annihilating their opponents.

Of course, it wasn't only those who were losing; those who were winning, Chen Qing and Ji Shang didn't interfere much and let them continue to help Ji Shang consolidate the situation.

At dawn, thirty-two Feather Transformation Realm cultivators and King Qing stood within the grand hall.

This was the force supporting Ji Shang from within Da Yan.

It wasn't considered a lot.

Da Yan's situation was extremely unique; it was a realm without True Monarchs and Gods, with only Emperor Donghua reigning supreme.

A normal Emperor Donghua would never leave behind a True Monarch that could cause major disturbances to the succession of the throne, affecting the inheritance.

At this moment, Ji Shang said, "The Eight Extremes Dragon Monarch is gravely injured and dying; it seems it's almost over."

"The loyalty of Eight Extremes Dragon Monarch is indeed admirable; he can be relied upon in the future."

"Prince Wen, it's time to end this!"

Chen Qing nodded, waved his hand and the Void Gate fell; with a wave of his wide sleeve, the Void Gate opened.

Four True Monarchs from Sword Travel Palace appeared together.

The Sword Travel Palace Master, a female cultivator with a graceful figure, emanated Sword Intent so profound it felt like gazing up at a high mountain.

Wearing luxurious long robes, with twelve small swords floating behind her.

Led by the Sword Travel Palace Master, they all bowed together before Chen Qing: "We greet our Lord!"

With these words, the cultivators in the hall felt their legs give way and collapsed to the ground.

The four True Monarchs from Sword Travel Palace calling Prince Wen 'our Lord'...

What this implied was self-evident.

For this succession struggle, Nanli didn't send just any True Monarch, but a God who resided above the Nine Heavens, overlooking all living beings!

Chen Qing nodded, "Things are almost settled. Please call over the three Dragon Lords, and the two True Monarchs from the Immortal Court and Heavenly Master Mansion."

The Sword Travel Palace Master said: "For the three Dragon Lords, Lu Chen will go; I will go to the location of the True Monarch from the Heavenly Master Mansion."

"Sword Master of Reincarnation and Three Thousand Sword Master, you two go and invite the True Monarch from the Immortal Court!"

After saying this, the four instantly disappeared from the spot.

On the battlefield of the imperial capital, the Eight Extremes Dragon Monarch coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood, looking distantly toward the capital, "I wonder if Prince Wen has succeeded, this old dragon is truly at his limit now!"

At this moment, Lu Chen, standing atop his sword in the sky, boomed, "My Lord has arrived, please come forward to meet him, the three Dragon Lords!"

As soon as these words fell, the three Dragon Lords were startled; Hua Yang Dragon Monarch was about to question when he saw the entire imperial capital within a ten-thousand-mile radius covered in a purple radiance, with purple vines sprouting from nowhere and blooming with Void Flowers.

Above in the sky, it was no longer the light of the sun and moon, but Infinite Light illuminating the land, and the Void had descended!

Moreover, thick Divine Power permeated the air, the three Dragon Lords' gazes sharpened, and the Eight Extremes Dragon Monarch rejoiced, "By command, I'll head there now!"

Hua Yang Dragon Monarch and Shijia Dragon Monarch sensed trouble, yet they did not dare act rashly, "Please lead the way, Palace Master!"

With the stars shifted and changed, this place had become Chen Qing's Country in the Palm; they couldn't escape or fight, they could only obey.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, the Sword Travel Palace Master landed on a small boat, "Earth Master Zhang, please come with me."

An old man with gray hair and beard stepped out of the cabin, looked around, and seeing the Void filled with purple qi and the Infinite Light illuminating the vast lands, he instantly understood, "Since the Palace Master has come personally, I dare not act rashly."

"Regardless, I never expected the one from Sword Travel Palace had already returned."

"This time, the Heavenly Master Mansion admits defeat."

"Please, Palace Master, lead the way."

Elsewhere, the Sword Master of Reincarnation and the Three Thousand Sword Master landed before a desolate mountain, the Three Thousand Sword Master, a robust middle-aged man said, "Zhao Huangming, my Lord has arrived, why hesitate any longer?"

The Sword Master of Reincarnation chuckled, "Three Thousand Sword Master, don't be too harsh; after all, he is still a True Monarch, we should give him some respect."

The Three Thousand Sword Master said, "If he refuses to come, I will slay him right here, and even the Immortal Court wouldn't dare utter a word of protest!"

On the stone, Zhao Huangming, holding a purple gourd swirling with Yin and Yang energies, stood up, "Three Thousand Sword Master, calmly,settle down. Since both of you have personally come to invite, I shall duly obey."

Within moments, Lu Chen led the three Dragon Lords to the grand hall, and before Chen Qing, he announced, "My Lord, the three Dragon Lords have been brought here, awaiting your instructions!"

Chen Qing waved his hand, "Let them stand aside for now."

Half a moment later, the Sword Travel Palace Master and the two Sword Masters also arrived with Zhang Earth Master and Zhao Huangming.

Zhang Earth Master and Zhao Huangming upon seeing Chen Qing were equally astounded.

Zhang Earth Master smiled, "I didn't expect Prince Wen to be the returning Void Master."

Chen Qing paid no heed, merely stating, "Remove the golden hoops_quiz_messagease from Hua Yang Dragon Monarch and Shijia Dragon Monarch; I still have use for these three. You have no standing to negotiate terms with me, just comply and as for the consequences, 그cctions are a matter for Miao God, Heavenly Venerable, and Heavenly Master."

Zhang Earth Master and Zhao Huangming knew, with Chen Qing present, this place was entirely out of their control. With a God before them, all they could do was obey.
