Daqian Night Emperor

Chapter 318 Useful, but not that useful

The next moment, the aura of the Donghua Sword Immortal suddenly burst out, like a divine weapon unsheathed, overwhelming the entire Yangxin Palace.

Even though the Fifth Marquis was a thousand years old, he felt the pressure from this most powerful person. Soon, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his face turned pale.

If he was like this, the rest of the eunuchs in the hall were in even worse condition. Many of them were forced to crawl on the ground, with blood flowing from their ears and noses.

In the entire Yangxin Palace, the only one who was not affected was Emperor Tianwu.

He raised his fat palm, clenched his five fingers and grabbed into the air. The terrifying pressure that swept across the entire hall disappeared without a trace in an instant.

After doing all this, Emperor Tianwu looked at Donghua Sword Immortal: "Donghua, how is it?"

Donghua Sword Immortal closed his eyes and felt his body. When he opened his eyes again after a while, his eyes were full of joy: "It is quite effective. Now the two purple lines in my body have restored the power of Hongmeng, and the zodiac energy in my body has also been wiped out a lot by the heavenly thunder that entered my body."

"If I only had one year to live before, now I can live at least another five years!"

Wu Hou Qiansui immediately congratulated Emperor Tianwu: "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. It's like God's help to obtain this wonderful method!"

But Emperor Tianwu was not happy, and sighed: "It is hard to say whether it is a blessing or a curse. Although this method can extend Donghua's life, this is a good thing, but these extra four years of life are exchanged for the life of a celestial warrior."

Which is more important, the four-year life of a Yang Immortal or the life of a Tianren warrior?
It seems that it is not a loss.

But Emperor Tianwu could foresee that if this method were to be spread, many powerful people who were deeply harmed by the Zodiac's energy would take risks and kill celestial warriors in order to prolong their lives.

This fourth-grade Yuantai is a very special realm. It does not mean that one must have the ultimate nine patterns to break through. After entering this realm, many celestial warriors realize that their talents are limited and are unwilling to spend time pursuing the ultimate nine patterns. They will try to break through the realm of supernatural powers with three or four purple patterns.

For this reason, the number of warriors in the fourth level is not much more than that of warriors in the supernatural power level.

There are probably only a few thousand people in the entire Kyushu continent.

If the method of "Big Jade Hand" is made public and used to suppress the energy of the Zodiac, the disadvantages may not be seen in the short term, but if it continues in the long run, I am afraid that the martial arts of Jiuzhou will be cut off sooner or later.

Emperor Tianwu is worried about the future.

He pointed at the charcoal at the feet of Donghua Sword Immortal and said, "Remember this man. He is Chen Qiaosheng, the deputy commander of the Dragon and Tiger Guards. He has a wife and a son at home, and an old mother to take care of. Now, I have issued an order to kill him here!"

"I can't protect him. I thought it was just a fourth-grade thunder tribulation, and I would be able to keep him safe, but I can't protect him..."

"Every time a bolt of heavenly thunder is intercepted, the thunder tribulation becomes more intense. In the end, even I can't suppress it. It can even hurt me!"

Hearing that Emperor Tianwu had just been injured, Donghua Sword Immortal and the Five Thousand Years Old Marquises were all terrified and hurried forward.

"His Majesty……"

"Your Majesty, where are you injured?"

Emperor Tianwu waved his hand and said, "My injury is not serious. It is just an old injury. I will recover in a few days. What I want to say is that in the end, this thunder tribulation only caused me minor injuries. But what about others? Donghua, if I don't eliminate the power of the last few thunder tribulations for you, can you refine it yourself?"

Donghua Sword Immortal was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head.

Emperor Tianwu sighed and said, "No wonder the first generation of the national teacher created this method, but left it in his secluded place and did not pass it on to the world. Apart from me, who can use this method to capture the heavenly thunder and suppress the energy of the zodiac? If the thunder tribulation backfires, apart from me, who else can ensure that they will not die?"

"Your Majesty." The Fifth Marquis Qiansui said at this time, "If Your Majesty only intercepts the first few thunders to help the Donghua Sword Immortal eliminate the Huangdao Qi in his body, although the effect may be much weaker, Chen Chenshi can survive, and the degree of thunder backlash can also be controlled."

Before Emperor Tianwu opened his mouth to explain, Donghua Sword Immortal at the side shook his head and said, "It's impossible. Once the thunder is introduced into my body, it will immediately cause the zodiac power in my body to riot. Either I suppress it completely, or I will die faster." This... is also the reason why Emperor Tianwu continued to intercept the thunder even though he knew that the thunder was getting stronger and stronger and he was no longer able to save Chen Qiaosheng's life.

The Fifth Marquis also couldn't help but sigh.

Emperor Tianwu saw that the atmosphere in the hall had become heavy, and he cheered up and said, "No matter what, we have now mastered a method to suppress the Zodiac Qi. The Heavenly Warriors of Daqian can stay put if they can. Don't we still have the foreign warriors? There is always an emergency method."

“Your Majesty,” the Five Marquis Qiansui reminded, “The cultivation methods of foreign warriors are very different from those of Central Plains warriors. Most of them have never experienced the thunder tribulation blessed by the Heavenly Dao.”

Emperor Tianwu waved his hand indifferently: "Then let Wuchang go and snatch some talented foreign geniuses and let them practice the Central Plains martial arts!"

"Okay, let's end this matter here. Today's events should not be spread to others. The method of the Great Jade Hand should only be practiced by me."

The last sentence is the most important key.

Emperor Tianwu looked towards the front of the palace and asked, "Where is Zhao Qi'an? Didn't we send someone to look for him? Why hasn't he come yet?"

Just as he finished speaking, an eunuch walked into the hall and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Zhao requests an audience."

Emperor Tianwu couldn't help but smile, and looked at the five marquises beside him: "He really came as soon as he said. Go, invite him in!"

……

"Your Majesty, I am Zhao Qi'an."

In the Yangxin Palace, Zhao Qi'an came to meet the emperor.

His gaze quickly fell on the Donghua Sword Immortal standing nearby, and soon he noticed the charred corpse above the hall.

If my guess is correct, the person who just survived the tribulation is the charred corpse in the hall.

But...why did this person die in the thunder tribulation?

Zhao Qi'an was a little confused. The fourth-grade thunder tribulation was not very strong. As long as the warrior's strength was far from matching his realm, such as those with weak blood and qi, or those who were seriously injured and went through the tribulation, nine out of ten times they would be able to get through it safely.

What's more, there are so many powerful martial arts masters in this hall, even a pig can survive the calamity safely, so how could it die?
"Zhao Qi'an."

Hearing Emperor Tianwu speak, Zhao Qi'an temporarily suppressed his emotions and said respectfully, "I am here."

Emperor Tianwu raised his hand and said, "Don't be so reserved. I summoned you here today because I wanted you to see for yourself whether the technique you presented is effective. However... there is nothing to see now."

There really is nothing to see, it's all burnt.

Zhao Qi'an bowed and said, "I am late."

Emperor Tianwu said indifferently: "It's not that you're not late. How can you calculate the exact time for a breakthrough in battle?"

He looked at Zhao Qian'an again and said, "You have contributed a lot to this method. Although this method still has some shortcomings, its merits outweigh its flaws. I still count this as a great achievement for you!"

Zhao Qi'an couldn't help but look at the Donghua Sword Immortal beside him when he heard this: "Is Senior Donghua fully recovered?"
