Chapter 7: Robbing the Ninth Divinity
Far to the west, there was a continent called the Sword Continent, a continent where all cultivators walked the path of the sword.
Any race can live on this continent, all get equal rights as long as they use the sword.
Those who don't wield a sword, on the other hand, will be expelled from this continent.
This kind of rule was indeed an exaggeration, but no one dared to protest because it was made by the Sword-Hearted Great Emperor, an Emperor with ten Divinities.
He is a supreme swordsman, no one is better at wielding a sword than him. It is said that he can use all sword techniques with just one glance.
In the east of this continent, right beside a white beach, there were countless swords stuck in the ground, some small, and some large enough to pierce the clouds.
On the bodies of the large swords, there were pavilions with people practicing swordsmanship.
This is the Holy Sword Sect.
On the top of one of the tallest swords sat four men. They drank wine while chatting happily, discussing the various events happening in the Divine World.
"Holy Sword, your granddaughter is truly extraordinary, not only is her sword technique unmatched among the younger generation, her temperament is also sharp as a sword," said an old man smoking a cigar to a handsome young man with the word Sword written on his forehead.
The word wasn't something natural like the God and Devil Clans had, it was something he wrote himself in ink that was said to be indelible.
The youth who was the Holy Sword Emperor smiled at the old man's praise.
"But anyway, we know that you don't have a wife and children, how do you suddenly have a granddaughter?" asked a middle-aged man with scales under his ears.
"Holy Sword, please don't hide it if you have a lover," another young man added.
His head was bald with black spots on it and he wore the robes of a monk.
Surprisingly enough because he even drank wine and didn't speak as politely as the other monks.
"I just don't have a wife here," the Holy Sword Emperor replied.
"Back when I was in the Lower Realm, I had a wife and child, after so many years, my descendants filled that realm... And yeah, one finally ascended to the Divine World, I sensed her aura, so I picked her up. I also didn't expect her talent to be so extraordinary."
"Ohhh, then that means she's a granddaughter after thousands of generations," said the cigar-smoking old man with a smile.
"The talent is what matters," the Holy Sword Emperor replied.
When he was about to smile, he suddenly froze while his eyes narrowed.
"What is wrong?" The old man quickly asked.
The Holy Sword Emperor snapped his fingers, causing three lights to appear that each entered the heads of the three man.
Immediately after that their expressions became serious.
"Eternal Star Ancestor stopped sealing his body, what exactly happened?" They started to wonder.
The old man looked at the Holy Sword Emperor again and asked, "Are you going to pay to save your granddaughter and generals?"
"I want to see him personally first," the Holy Sword Emperor replied.
He stood up before stepping to the west of the continent.
The three men looked at each other.
"Looks like he will be challenging the Eternal Star Ancestor again," the middle-aged man said.
"He's really stubborn." The monk shook his head.
"But let's help him if he really wants to attack," he added.
"It's not a bad thing to fight an Eternal Saint Ancestor to sharpen my old bones." The old man agreed without any consideration.
The middle-aged man also nodded. "I need something extremely stressful if I want my dragon blood to break through to the ninth stage."
...
In the restaurant, Qin Yuan couldn't help but praise the dishes he ate.
He thought he would eat like crazy if not for the existence of the two women in front of him.
To be honest, he wished they would leave soon so he could act freely.
Meanwhile, the rabbit eared maid left the restaurant with hasty steps, she went to an academy area.
She entered one of the classes at the academy and then came out with a boy who looked to be 13 years old. The boy also has rabbit ears and tail, probably her younger brother.
Qin Yuan watched them from afar and listened to their conversation.
As it turned out, they wanted to move to a certain region of the continent that was inhabited by a lot of Human Beasts because only there could they thrive without experiencing discrimination.
Thinking of their struggle made him sigh again.
He could go anywhere on the continent by traversing time and space, but a Sage like that maid would spend years traveling from region to region. And it also costs a lot.
Feeling sorry for her, he ended up using a bit of his strength to create a shield on his body and the boy's body.
Although he could have sent them straight to their destination, letting them go alone was better to hone them.
"Father." Qin Wuxin suddenly called out to him.
"Mm?" Qin Yuan turned his gaze to her.
"Actually we were planning to rob the Ninth Divinity in this generation if nothing bad happened."
"Are you sure?" Qin Yuan was shocked as he looked at his daughter and disciple.
They had already possessed eight Divinities since their own generation, and dozens of generations had passed until now.
Such is the cultivation of the Heaven's Path.
In their generation, Divine Emperors had mostly reached their highest limit.
Of course, with the accumulation of practice, that highest limit could still be breached.
However, unlike Saint Ancestors breaking through limits meant breaking through cultivation, Divine Emperors had a hard time breaking through because robbing Divinity in the next generation was extremely difficult and the risk of death was also enormous.
"Our limit cannot increase anymore, robbing the Ninth Divinity is the only solution we believe in," Yi Xue replied.
Qin Yuan was silent for a while before finally nodding. "Since that's what you guys believe, I can only support you..."
Ding
[Help your daughter to rob the Ninth Divinity, you will get 5000 Karma Points and 2500 Charm Points.]
[Help your disciple to rob the Ninth Divinity, you will get 5000 Karma Points and 2,500 Charm Points.]
The two missions did not make Qin Yuan blink, he drank a cup of wine and enjoyed it.
After he finished, his daughter suddenly furrowed her brows, she was also slightly pouting.
For a cold woman like her to show such an expression, something must have really bothered her.
"Husband, I thought where did you go, it turns out that you met your daughter and disciple..." A charming voice echoed before a red-haired figure appeared.
Who else but Su Mei.
She had changed clothes, now wearing a very glamorous red dress.
"Why are you here?" Qin Wuxin immediately looked at her with cold eyes.
The enmity of a daughter and her stepmother.
Qin Yuan couldn't help but feel dizzy again.
