The game begins with a visit to a holy land, only to discover that one's ancestor was a human e

"Not bad." Feng Yuan nodded slowly, a glint of light flashing in his old eyes. "One is the beginning, nine is the end; everything is predetermined in the dark."

"Huang Xi was the first emperor of the human race, and Nuwa was the first human emperor. They were both special."

His gaze towards Feng Zhi began to waver.

"And you are the ninth Human Emperor Body, the third Human Emperor Body in the Ancient Era, and you happen to correspond to the point in time when the Human Race's Great Emperors reached their zenith! Do you know... what this means?"

"What does that mean?"

"It means you have the potential to become an existence comparable to the progenitor of the Imperial Dawn! It means you might be able to break through the ancient wilderness and usher in a new era!" Feng Yuan suddenly pressed his hands on Feng Zhi's shoulders, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

Feng Zhi felt a slight heaviness under the old man's hands; the topic was too heavy, and he didn't know how to respond.

after awhile.

Feng Yuan slowly regained his composure, released his hands, and patted him with his right hand.

"You are the ninth Human Emperor Body, which is too special. It is no exaggeration to say that you are the destined emperor of our human race! This is also the family's expectation for you. We hope that you can become the extreme number of nine and usher in the next era according to the laws of the era."

After the old man finished speaking, Feng Zhi sighed, somewhat helplessly:

"Sigh, Third Grand Uncle, what you said is putting some pressure on me. What do you mean by a destined emperor? If I really believe in this kind of thing, I might as well just lie down and not cultivate. Anyway, that so-called destiny can make me a great emperor."

Feng Yuan was stunned for a few moments.

The solemn expression on his old face suddenly relaxed considerably; he was amused by Feng Zhi's words.

"You little rascal, I'm talking to you seriously, don't give me this nonsense."

Feng Zhi smiled slightly: "Who told you to say that I, the ninth Human Emperor, am the destined emperor of the human race, the one who will usher in a new era?"

"If anyone heard that, wouldn't they feel so much pressure that they couldn't sleep? If I really believed that, I wouldn't dare to slack off in my cultivation from now on, for fear of letting you down."

Feng Yuan shook his head helplessly, wanting to tap him with his cane, but he lowered his hand halfway through.

"Your personality...who did you take after? Your father is such an honest and simple person, and your mother is also a calm and steady person. How did you end up being such a glib-tongued person?"

The wind stopped and he shrugged.

"You...you..." The old man was both amused and exasperated with him, and then he spoke again: "But what you said isn't wrong either."

"The number nine is the destiny of our human race, and it has indeed come true. Among all the human emperors throughout history, only the first one, Nuwa, can compare with you in terms of combat power and talent."

"But this is not the destiny of all races! Nor is it the destiny of heaven and earth! Only humanity truly loves you. The myriad races and heaven and earth do not recognize this. The idea that one can become an emperor while lying down is naturally impossible. Everything still depends on yourself!"

"Alright, we've strayed from the topic. We still have to take things one step at a time." After saying this, the old man turned his gaze back to Di Yuan in front of him.

"The drop of blood before you is the essence of the previous Human Emperor's physique, left behind during the Great Sage's time. It was specially left for you!"

"It can't make you reach the sky overnight, but it can strengthen your physical constitution."

"It contains his understanding and application of the Human Emperor's Body, which can help you avoid some detours. Let's begin! I will protect you."

Feng Zhi nodded and sat cross-legged in mid-air.

He looked at the drop of golden-red blood, took a slow breath, and then raised his right hand toward the Emperor's Source.

call out!

The blood burst forth, not violently, requiring no suppression or refining, but instead actively rushing towards Feng Zhi's brow, as if this were a long-lost home to him.

After it entered Feng Zhi's body, it began to slowly integrate into his bloodline, clarifying the previously somewhat blurred meridians within him one by one.

Feng Zhi could sense that the understanding and insights into the physique left by the previous generation of the Human Emperor were unfolding towards him layer by layer.

In an instant, his mastery of the Human Emperor Body reached a new level.

Then the power of that drop of blood continued to circulate deep within his body, his physique was changing, and his power was constantly increasing, which was strengthening his foundation.

boom!

With a roar, Feng Zhi's cultivation level broke through to the second level of the Purple Mansion realm on its own.

He opened his eyes, and a flash of golden light passed by.

Seeing that he had opened his eyes, Feng Yuan asked, "How are you feeling? How much has your physical constitution improved?"

Feng Zhi clenched and unclenched his fists, his internal magical power surging, as if confirming the change in his own strength.

After a moment, he replied to the old man: "The combat power has been enhanced by about 10% due to the enhancement of the body's fundamental strength."

"The upper limit of the ability to resist all laws is higher, and the consumption of the ability to make words come true has also decreased. In the past, it would consume a portion of magic power to say a word, but now it can save about a third."

"The improvement in my realm was an unexpected surprise. The power in that drop of blood was mainly used to strengthen my foundation. I didn't expect there would be any left over."

After listening, Feng Yuan stroked his beard and nodded:

"Hmm, one percent? As I expected, that drop of blood was meant to strengthen one's foundation, not to break through to a higher realm."

"You've managed to strengthen your foundation and even advance a small level, which means you've made the most of that drop of blood. Has your current combat power touched upon divine restrictions?"

Feng Zhi shook his head, looking at the old man speechlessly.

"Isn't your expectation too high? How could such a small improvement possibly touch the edge of the divine forbidden zone? That's a domain that only emperors can reside in!"

Even those imperial sons, relying on their fathers' favor, could only barely reach the eighth level of the forbidden realm at this time.

"However... the main reason is that no one has ever made me use my full strength or made me feel any pressure. Sigh."

He let out a sigh.

Being too strong can also be a problem. Without the pressure of being on the verge of life and death, you can only rely on your foundation to slowly accumulate strength.

When Feng Yuan heard his last sigh, his hand, which had been stroking his beard, paused for a moment.

He looked at Feng Zhi's somewhat helpless face, then suddenly laughed, as if he were looking at a young man who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.

"No one can make you use your full strength? Within the Feng family, no one would dare to accept that, but what about outside the Feng family?"

"The Purple Star is about to be revived, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will begin to rise, those secret realms that have been dormant for a long time will open one after another, and the secrets of various races will gradually surface."

"You think you can't find an opponent because those opponents haven't woken up yet! Once they wake up, you'll realize your level isn't high enough."

"You must understand... no one knows exactly how many monsters this world harbors; it's the accumulation of countless eras! Even if you reach the level of a Saint or Quasi-Emperor, you will still have no shortage of opponents!"

"That's absolutely right!" Feng Zhi nodded seriously at first, then his face lit up with anticipation. "It's truly something to look forward to!"

The road to becoming emperor is long and arduous; without powerful enemies, wouldn't it be rather dull?
