Divine King of Honour-Chapter 704 - Tianhen Ancestor

"Zifu Cultivator?"

Xu Nian, upon hearing the words of Xuan Hong beside him, also showed a surprised expression on his face.

If it were merely a Zifu Cultivator, Xuan Hong wouldn't have been so surprised.

The only possibility that could have evoked such a shocked exclamation from him must have been that the Zifu Cultivator he mentioned was a true one, not one whose realm was suppressed.

Then there was this fluctuation.

This purple fluctuation was very powerful, powerful enough to permeate the entire Imperial Capital.

However, this fluctuation was different from that of Spiritual Energy.

The energy within this fluctuation was clearly more domineering and powerful than Spiritual Energy.

"Could this really be the legendary True Essence? But hasn't this world already been suppressed? How could there still be a true Zifu Cultivator?" Xu Nian wondered in his heart, puzzled.

"Ha ha, I've broken through, I've finally broken through."

However, at that moment, a hearty laugh came from deep within the Emperor Palace.

Then, everyone saw the buildings of the Emperor Palace directly explode.

An aged figure burst out from the blasted buildings.

The fluctuations radiating from his body directly crushed all the surrounding buildings into dust.

A terrifying aura burst forth from his body like waves.

Sweeping across the entire Imperial Capital.

"Congratulations to the Ancestor for breaking through to the Zifu Realm!"

The figure of Emperor Tianhen also appeared in the air.

He immediately knelt down in midair.

His voice was loud and clear, echoing throughout the entire Imperial Capital.

At this moment, everyone in the Imperial Capital was startled by this voice.

They all looked towards the old man.

When they saw the figure of this elder, they all showed surprised expressions.

Looking at the kneeling Emperor Tianhen beside him, their hearts were even more staggeringly shocked.

They immediately guessed the identity of this elder.

The founding emperor of the Tianhen Empire, the Ancestor of the Tianhen Imperial Family, Xia Tianhen.

It had long been rumored that he was still alive.

Unexpectedly, he really was still alive in this world.

Not only that, his Cultivation had truly broken through the constraints of heaven and earth and reached the Zifu Realm.

It had to be known that breaking through to Zifu and not breaking through were completely different matters.

A cultivator who truly reached the Zifu Realm was far more formidable than Xuan Hong, whose Cultivation was suppressed.

After all, he was a cultivator who could truly utilize True Essence.

And the quality of True Essence far surpassed that of Spiritual Energy.

"Kid, it looks like you're in big trouble now," Xuan Hong said to Xu Nian.

Xu Nian smiled.

Although he didn't speak, the hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth was self-evident.

But soon, that bit of bitterness was dispelled by Xu Nian, replaced by a kind of unyielding determination.

So what if you are powerful?

Even if I die fighting today, I must shake your thousand-year dynasty.

"Buzz!"

At the same time, the elder in the distance also looked towards Xu Nian.

The moment his gaze landed on Xu Nian.

Xu Nian distinctly felt an intense oppressive force coming from the heavens and earth.

This oppressive feeling, though slightly weaker than the aura brought by Xuan Hong, was much more real.

Like a colossal mountain pressing down on Xu Nian.

"Buzz!"

Xu Nian released the power of his Spiritual Sense from the Zifu Realm, which made him feel much relieved.

"Ah!"

A distant elder emitted a light exclamation.

Clearly, he hadn't expected that the imposing aura he had gathered with his cultivation would be so easily dissolved by Xu Nian.

"Hum!"

The elder took a step forward.

The space beneath his feet suddenly rippled like waves.

His figure, resembling instant teleportation, appeared directly a hundred yards in front of Xu Nian.

"What terrifying speed, is this the true Zifu Realm?"

Xu Nian exclaimed in shock.

The speed demonstrated by the Tianhen Ancestor was indeed frightening.

To think that just a second ago, the Tianhen Ancestor was still more than ten miles away from him.

In merely the blink of an eye, he had appeared a hundred yards in front.

Such terrifying speed was indeed shocking.

"Are you Xu Nian?"

After sizing up Xu Nian, the Tianhen Ancestor asked.

His tone carried a condescending air.

"Are you the Tianhen Ancestor?"

Xu Nian, not to be outdone, mimicked the Tianhen Ancestor's tone.

The onlookers from the Imperial Capital were all surprised.

This Xu Nian truly was a fearless newbie.

To speak so arrogantly in front of the Tianhen Ancestor.

However, the Tianhen Ancestor just smiled and said, "Young man, I have lived for a thousand years. Logically, I am your senior. Isn't your tone a bit disrespectful?"

"Respect?" Xu Nian smiled, his smile cooling a few degrees, "Standing here, talking to you calmly, I consider that quite respectful. Tianhen Ancestor, have you lived a thousand years just for today's breakthrough?"

"Well spoken, sharp-tongued lad. You're right, I have indeed lived a thousand years for today. Don't you know what stepping into the Zifu Realm means?"

"What does it mean?" Xu Nian asked coldly.

"It means rebirth. Once you step into the Zifu, you gain three thousand years of life, qualified to pursue immortality. What so-called Battle Emperor, Supreme Battle Emperor, without entering Zifu, they are but ants," the Tianhen Ancestor explained, becoming more enthusiastic as he spoke.

Xu Nian smiled.

It seemed that this breakthrough made the Tianhen Ancestor a bit too self-congratulatory.

However, it was indeed baffling for Xu Nian that someone could achieve a breakthrough to the Zifu Realm in this confined space.

"Boy, are you wondering how I managed to break into the Zifu Realm?" the Tianhen Ancestor asked with a smile.

"Oh? Are you willing to tell?" Xu Nian asked with a cold laugh.

The Tianhen Ancestor, detecting Xu Nian's tone, his face flickered with a hint of mockery as he coldly laughed, "Actually, to break through the Zifu Realm in this confined space depends on nothing else but Fortune."

"Fortune?" Xu Nian asked, puzzled.

"That's right, Fortune. Though this space is confined by a powerful Immortal, he's strong but still just an Immortal, not the real Heavenly Dao. So when your Fortune is strong enough, it can break his restraints, freeing you from his confinement. And this Fortune relies on the dragon veins," the Tianhen Ancestor explained with a light laugh.

"Dragon veins?" Xu Nian's face immediately showed an even more astonished expression.

"Dragon veins?" Xu Nian repeated, still confused.

Weren't the dragon veins supposed to be with him?

Where did the Tianhen Ancestor get dragon veins for a breakthrough?

Could it be...

"Haha, you guessed it right. I have waited a thousand years for the Great Formation of dragon veins, which you didn't expect. Through the Fortune of Emperor Tianhen, I have condensed a new dragon vein, which I used to achieve my breakthrough to the Zifu Realm," the Tianhen Ancestor laughed heartily.

After he finished speaking, a massive purple dragon soared up behind him.

The huge dragon shape hovered in the air.

A pair of enormous dragon eyes looked down on Xu Nian.

"Is it really the dragon veins?"

The surrounding people all showed surprised expressions.

They had not expected the Tianhen Ancestor to really condense a new dragon vein.
