Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 692: The Tenth King

Is Meng Tian strong?

Strong!

Among all the people Shi Hao had seen and battled after entering the Ancient World, Meng Tian was second only to Nangong Zheng.

However, faced with an Immortal Technique like the Sky-Flipping Seal, and with the added cheating of Immortal Abode and Time Liquid, Meng Tian couldn’t oppose Shi Hao at all.

Actually, when it comes down to it, he could be proud as well.

——After all, Shi Hao had used two things related to the Immortal Realm.

He didn’t lose unfairly.

But Meng Tian didn’t know this; he gritted his teeth, filled with humiliation.

It seemed that Shi Hao was so weak that a flick of a finger could knock him down, yet he just couldn’t make that step.

Hmph, I don’t believe your Time Liquid is unlimited! Plus, this is the Ancient World. You can be so extravagant here, but what about after you leave? Can you still use the Time Liquid then?

Aren’t you afraid of being targeted by the Heaven and Earth, and being directly blasted into dust?

Besides, you’ve used a Secret Technique to forever seal your cultivation at the Founding King Court, but what about me? I can step into the Great Sacrificial Heaven.

So, in the end, the victor will definitely be me.

He gritted his teeth, yet without hesitation, he turned and left.

There are more opportunities in this place. I refuse to believe I’ll run into Shi Hao a third time.

And once out of the Ancient World, I will not hesitate to blast Shi Hao away.

——If Shi Hao knew what he was thinking, he would definitely say that it’s not your turn to kill me; there is at least an Imperial Prince waiting for me on the outside.

Shi Hao smiled and turned back.

He and the Purple Gold Rat gathered the River of Time into the Immortal Abode, and then began to cultivate.

To refine the Star Core and uplift his cultivation.

Shi Hao had already reached the Peak of the Ninth King, but the Tenth King... was incredibly difficult to break through.

This was truly a limit, so hard to break through.

To speak frankly, Shi Hao was freakishly talented. Look, even when he was at the Ninth King’s level, he could easily dominate those geniuses who ignited the Incense Flame. With this might entering the Supplementing Divine Temple, he could completely sweep through this realm.

Meng Tian, Nangong Zheng—all they could do was be subordinates, the difference being how many moves they could take.

But Shi Hao was determined to achieve Perfection.

Without knowing, it was fine, but when he clearly could become the strongest, why not pursue it?

The Immortal Realm... there are so many more and stronger talents there, he couldn’t be content with being the strongest in the Mortal Realm.

Let’s not even mention the owner of the Heavenly Palace.

Who could clearly understand the essence of the world, leaving behind the Primordial Scripture. What sort of awesome being was that?

If I cannot be the strongest in the absolute sense, then I definitely cannot compare with such Almighties.

Shi Hao used Yuan Chengmie’s martial arts realm, along with the Primordial Scripture’s knowledge of the Heaven and Earth Rules. He felt he could do it.

He began constructing the tenth layer of the Royal Court.

It was very difficult, just as he had stacked a bit, the power released from the nine layers below would immediately shake it down, making it impossible to build.

However, amid the repeated failures, Shi Hao also saw the hope of success.

"Pff!"

"Pff!"

"Pff!"

He kept spitting out blood; each failed assault took a huge toll on his body, and after too many times, even his robust frame was struggling to hold up.

If it had been someone else, they would have long since killed themselves by mistake.

But Shi Hao had no intention of stopping, continuing on his path of assault.

A faint smile played on his lips.

I’m going to succeed!

He burst into an ecstatic expression, as above the nine layers of Royal Court, he finally forged the tenth layer!

The Tenth Kings.

He rose to his full height, laughing heartily.

"What madness is this, you’re about to deafen me with that racket," the Purple Gold Rat grumbled, but it couldn’t help being moved by Shi Hao’s persistence.

If it had been in his place, it surely would have given up by now.

Anything related to courting death was something it would definitely steer clear of.

Impressive, constructing ten layers of the Royal Court.

You have to know, these were ten stacked layers of the Royal Court, far more challenging than building ten Royal Courts on ten separate Soul Islands.

Truly impressive.

Shi Hao sat down again, beginning to stabilize his condition.

He inspected his Soul Sea, looking at his ten-layer Royal Court.

Built from the Little Star Universe, each layer was terrifyingly powerful. What kind of immense power would be unleashed if all ten layers were used to crush someone?

Ten layers.

Shi Hao felt a small sense of pride; he should have cultivated the strongest Founding King Court.

Just as he was planning to continue and fully cultivate the tenth layer of the Royal Court to lay the groundwork for attacking the Supplementing Divine Temple, he suddenly paused, the smile fading from his face.

Ten layers of the Royal Court represented ten Little Star Universes.

Not right!

If he wanted to form his own small world, it was destined to be only one.

— Could he really be so powerful as to form ten?

Maybe after forming the first world, he might possibly form a second or third in the future, but to create ten all at once, wasn’t that a fantasy?

Even a prodigy shouldn’t misuse their talents like that!

He had strayed off the path.

If he continued to progress like this, he would be very powerful for a very long time, but he would likely never form his own small world. On the other hand, if he had only cultivated a single layer of the Royal Court, his combat power would definitely be much weaker. However, he would actually have the possibility of forming his own small world.

More doesn’t always mean better; sometimes it can become a burden.

So, should he destroy nine layers of the Royal Court and keep only one?

Shi Hao shook his head. He could be stronger—why settle for less?

His eyes suddenly brightened with a bold idea.

— If Soul Islands could merge into one, why couldn’t the Royal Courts?

And how does one attack the Supplementing Divine Temple, anyway?

After reaching the peak of Founding King Court construction, select one Soul Island, one Royal Court to serve as the Divine Temple. All other Soul Islands and Royal Courts are just backups. In case the Divine Temple is destroyed and can’t be used for cultivation, others can replace it to reform.

A person can only have one Divine Temple. This is a rule set by Heaven and Earth, unbreakable by anyone.

Indeed, there were people who, after forming one Divine Temple, wanted to create another, and without exception, they all met with violent ends.

The authority of Heaven and Earth is not to be defied.

For Shi Hao, this actually turned out to be a good thing. freewёbnoνel.com

He only had one Soul Island, one Royal Court, but it was the combination of ten. How incredibly powerful would the resulting Divine Temple be?

Moreover, after cultivating the Primordial Scripture, he realized that the Royal Court he constructed had many imperfections.

These imperfections indeed resulted from errors in his understanding of martial arts and in grasping the rules of Heaven and Earth.

So, if these were not corrected now, they would certainly cause problems in the future.

A dyke of a thousand miles is collapsed by an ant hole.

One must never underestimate these minor flaws; someday, they might become a fatal blow.

Shi Hao had already made his decision. He would first perfect the tenth layer of the Royal Court and then demolish and rebuild, merging the ten layers into a single entity. During this process, he would correct all his shortcomings.

The arrival of the Primordial Scripture truly couldn’t have been more timely.

Under the combined effects of the Star Core and the River of Time, Shi Hao’s progress was astonishingly fast. Only two hours had passed in the outside world, and he had already completed the entire process, from constructing the tenth layer of the Royal Court to bringing it to perfection.

Now, to demolish and start anew!
