C78 It Caused a Sensation
"Inform your Imperial Emperor and have him identify him. Is he one of your men?" Red Armored Army ordered.
When the guards heard this man call their respected Imperial Emperor over, they showed no respect at all. They could not help but feel angry in their hearts, but when faced with these people... Not to mention him, even some of the Martial Cultivator in the empire had to be respected.
Hearing the order, the guard angrily left. However, he didn't dare to reveal a trace of dissatisfaction on his face.
The guard left. However, the tens of millions of people below the stairs were still slowly walking towards the sky stairwell. They did not have the slightest intention of stopping.
Facing one or two people, perhaps the newly established Dynasty Guards could still deal with them. But this was tens of thousands of people, advancing towards the supreme authority together. They couldn't just arrest all of them, right? But they were completely lacking manpower.
Furthermore, after ascending the ten thousand zhang stairs, they would become the students of the Empire's academy. This was the first order that the Empire had announced. If he were to be crippled just like that... What was the dignity of the Empire? How could the Empire still rule the people after that?
It was as if all of this would become a joke!
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Chuhuang Nanxuan was also shocked when he heard the report of the situation on the Stairway to Heaven. He had never thought that there would be so many people stepping onto the Stairway to Heaven. This seemed to be very different from what his master had told him.
He clearly remembered that this ten thousand feet tall Martial Cultivator could easily reach the top. However, it was a huge test for ordinary people. The 'Qi' that his master, Old Ancestor Hei Mu, had set up was specially used to select people with the potential of the Martial Cultivator.
But now, with so many people climbing the stairs, could it be that the 'Qi' had been broken?
Thinking of this, Chuhuang Nanxuan shook his head. This was impossible. There was no longer anyone who could surpass his master's strength. At least, there was no one else in this continent.
If it existed, it would have appeared in that war a long time ago. There was no need to wait until now!
"Should we report it to His Majesty?" A guard beside him said.
"No need, His Majesty is currently recuperating. He will only show himself once during this grand ceremony. If there is nothing important, do not disturb him!" Chuhuang Nanxuan sternly ordered.
"Yes, my king!"
"Then what did he say just now? What did he look like?" Suddenly, Chuhuang Nanxuan seemed to recall something and asked urgently.
The guard was stunned and then said, "That person is wearing a mask. We can't see his face clearly."
"Mask... Mask..." Chuhuang Nanxuan muttered to himself, "Could it be him?"
"Is the mask black?" Chuhuang Nanxuan asked immediately.
"This subordinate did not take a closer look. It seems to be black, but it does not seem to be particularly black." The guard was a little uncertain.
"Let's go. Lead me to take a look." Chuhuang Nanxuan thought to himself. Could it really be him? In that huge battle... The disappearance of the masked man had caused them to lose a great help. But why had he come here for no reason?
Furthermore, it sounded like his strength had become even stronger. He could even break the 'Qi' of Old Ancestor Hei Mu. It was simply inconceivable.
Chuhuang Nanxuan and the others walked out at high speed.
At this moment, the masked man had already brought everyone to the 900th step. There were still 1,000 steps left before they could reach the top of the Stairway to Heaven and become a disciple of the Empire Academy. At that time, he would be able to make a name for himself.
When they thought of this, everyone was excited. They quietly followed behind the masked man, not daring to breathe loudly. They were afraid that the mysterious man in front of them would suddenly not leave.
The masked man had long seen through the thoughts of this group of people. However, it was exactly what he wanted. This was the effect he wanted.
However, to be honest, with his current strength, it was indeed somewhat troublesome to crack this "Qi." If not for the fact that his master had given him some cultivation techniques, not to mention the 10,000 steps "Qi," even if he could crack the 100 steps, it would be a great fortune for him.
"Interesting. I never thought that I would meet such an interesting person here today!" The masked man who was also at the Martial Cultivator passageway muttered to himself.
He had come here to find out some things. He knew that Chuhuang Batian had yet to recover after that great battle. As for the rest of the Martial Cultivator, they couldn't bear to see the outcome of the battle, so they left the Chuhuang family one after another. It was also the current empire.
As for the so-called Immortals, it was even more impossible for them to make a move on them in this kind of situation. They would leave a weakness for the people of the world, and how tyrannical and unreasonable the new empire was.
However, he never would have thought that there would be a person who looked exactly the same as him here today. However, this person seemed to be slightly stronger than him.
He suddenly began to be interested in this person.
There were two people drinking tea and playing chess in the palace of Chuhuang family. One of them was wearing a purple-gold dragon robe, looking mighty and extraordinary. The other man was wearing a simple red robe, but it was difficult to conceal his noble identity.
Suddenly, the man in red trembled and his hand trembled. He threw a chess piece on the chessboard.
"I say, Great Immortal Hei Mu, you are deliberately letting me win, right? You are about to win, but you insist on letting me win. How can I have the face to do that?" The man in the purple-golden dragon robe said with a smile.
"No...! No...!" red-clothed man said it twice in a row.
" Of course not. If my son goes down, you will lose. How can you be right? " The financial man said with a bitter smile.
"No, Brother Batian, I suddenly feel a burst of anger. But this is impossible, the one who can break my Qi in this world with a smile. It doesn't exist at all. Then, who is it?" red-clothed man was puzzled.
"Brother Hei Mu, anger? Are you talking about the energy you set up on the Stairway to Heaven?" Chuhuang Batian asked curiously.
"That's right. After that great battle, I don't think there will be any more experts. It seems like I have underestimated your continent." Hei Mu's tone was heavy.
"The person who can break my Qi must be at the same level as me, or perhaps even stronger. But why is he here?" He couldn't understand why this continent had given him more and more surprises.
"You mean the Qi of the Ten Thousand Zhang Stairs was broken by someone?" Chuhuang Batian said in surprise, "Doesn't that mean that everyone can enter the Imperial College?"
"That's right." Hei Mu nodded heavily.
"Setting up these 10,000 steps has used up almost 20% of my strength. Adding the previous battle, I have also used up a lot of my True Yuan. Right now, I only have half of my strength."
"What? Your injuries haven't healed yet?" Chuhuang Batian asked in shock. Logically speaking, World Sea shouldn't lack healing Immortal Pills, but why hadn't Hei Mu fully recovered yet?
"Once the Qi is damaged, the best way is to slowly heal it. Although there is an Immortal Pill that can be consumed, it will be a hindrance to my future cultivation." Hei Mu said solemnly.
"Then let's hurry over and see what exactly happened!"
After saying that, the two of them walked out of the hall.
