Hong Qing Shan smiled and said, "Yu Huang is indeed a sentimental person."
"My bloodline, apart from the 'Yu Huang Gate' on the Nine Provinces continent, another branch is in the far north of the North Sea!" Yu Huang said, "In the vast and boundless northernmost part of the North Sea, there is a vast land, of course, that piece of land is much smaller than the Nine Provinces continent. Equivalent to two provinces. I call it the 'North Sea Continent'."
Hong Qingshan was somewhat surprised.
It's not recorded in any book that north of the North Sea, there is actually a 'North Sea Continent'. Two states' land... it's also quite large.
"It's much colder there than in the Nine Provinces, and most of the Northern Sea Continent is covered in snow all year round... and it's also very sparsely populated. The Nine Provinces have billions of people, but that Northern Sea Continent only has tens of millions. Emperor Yu's face had a hint of a smile, "However, the tribal peoples there are very united, unlike the Nine Provinces where the major tribes are always at each other's throats."
Hong Qingshan was calculating that in the era of Yu Huang, the population of the nine states was only 100 million, and now it is probably close to 3 billion.
Thousands of years have passed, has the North Sea continent become extinct or more prosperous?
But why has this Northern Ocean Continent never been recorded in books?
"I am the descendant of Beihai Continent, and I should live on 'Shenfu Mountain'. " Yu Huang sighed, "Compared to Yuhuang Gate, I worry more about Beihai Continent's 'Shenfu Mountain'... because Beihai Continent has many natural disasters, such as avalanches in Snowy Mountains, and terrifying cold currents attacking... These things, I am unable to change. After all, the core of this world is Jiuzhou Great Land, and even the nine great origins are here. The sea domain and other places will be much more brutal."
Teng Qing Shan nodded silently.
"However, the North Sea Continent is far from the Nine Provinces' land," said Yu Huang. "From the northernmost shore of the Nine Provinces, heading north, it's probably over a million miles away, not to mention the dangers at sea as you go further north. Even demonic beasts can't fly to the northernmost part. Therefore, to get to the North Sea Continent, one can only rely on boats!"
Teng Qing Shan smiled wryly, more than ten million miles?
At sea, it's impossible to compare with on land. If the wind is favorable, maybe you can travel thousands of miles in a day and night. But for a journey of over 100,000 miles, how could it possibly be smooth sailing every day?
Teng Qing Shan thought, "If I really have to go, with my body's adaptability, going to the North Sea Continent wouldn't be a big problem." Teng Qing Shan sailed on a ship, and even if the ship capsized, it would be no big deal. Even in seawater, Teng Qing Shan could breathe through his pores. Moreover, with his physical strength, he was also a fast swimmer.
Neijiaquan practitioners have a strong ability to survive in harsh environments.
Yu Huang continued: "With a pre-heavenly strong person on board, plus some good materials to build a superior ship. It would take about a year and a half to reach the North Sea Continent. When I went to the North Sea Continent back then, I had reached the Virtual Realm."
Teng Qing Shan couldn't help but ask, "Emperor Yu, why did you suddenly run to the North Sea without any reason and leave behind your bloodline?"
"In those years, the nine states were in chaos and I found it difficult to unify the world with my Void Boundary ability. So, I left my tribe and started traveling alone... I went to the southern wilderness, all the way to the end. I also went to the Eastern Sea, touring many islands overseas."
"I also set foot in the desert, west of the nine states, and roamed through those small countries in the desert."
"In the end, I ventured north, crossing the vast grasslands, continuing further north until I reached the northernmost shore. Then I boarded a ship... At that time, I just wanted to see what other wonders this vast world had in store. On the sea, I drifted north alone... The endless ocean, with only me between heaven and earth. On the sea, after nearly half a year, I suddenly realized something. From entering the Void Realm, I transcended into the Hollow Void Realm." Yu Huang said, "Later on, I discovered the North Sea Continent, a place without internal strife. I spent eighteen years there, got married, had children."
"After eighteen years, I broke through the 'Dongxu' boundary and reached the realm of supreme perfection," said Yu Huang. "At that time, the North Sea continent and the nine states of the land, although distant, were nothing to me."
Hong Qing Shan gave a thumbs up in his heart: "That's ruthless. The Beihai mainland and the Jiuzhou continent, each with one family."
"The nine provinces of the mainland, with countless heroes, is a place that makes men's blood boil. While the North Sea continent is very peaceful and serene." Yu Huang sighed, "I have reached the highest level of perfection, using my world to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, refining it into a kind of spiritual liquid I need. This spiritual liquid is called 'North Sea Spirit' in the Yu Huang Sect, while on the North Sea continent's 'Divine Axe Mountain', it is called 'Nine Provinces Spirit'. However, my children do not know... that there is another land existing."
Hong Qingshan was shocked: "The Spirit of North Sea? This Spirit of North Sea is actually Yu Huang's world refined through his cultivation?"
In books recording genius treasures.
In addition to Zhu Guo, Hei Huo Ling Guo, Bu Si Cao, Zhu Jie Ling Guo, Wan Nian Yu Mei and many other spiritual treasures, there is another one -
The Spirit of the North Sea: A single drop of the Spirit of the North Sea can bring a person to the pinnacle of their acquired state, not only filling the dantian with inner energy, but also transforming and evolving the meridians, making them strong and wide. According to legend, this spiritual liquid exists in the depths of the North Sea, however, the 'Spirit of the North Sea' is unique to the Yu Huang Gate.
"What's in the depths of Beihai? Bullshit. This Yu Huang Gate is spreading false information. This 'Spirit of Beihai', it was left behind by Yu Huang." Teng Qing Shan knew the value of the 'Spirit of Beihai'.
A drop of North Sea essence is several times more precious than a crimson fruit.
After all, it can not only reach the peak of acquired skills, but also improve one's meridians. A single drop of North Sea Spirit can create a master with acquired skills at their limit.
"Reaching the realm of the strongest is indeed unimaginable." Teng Qing Shan secretly praised, he also understood why he could build the Tian Hong Water Palace. Reaching the realm of the strongest, having one's own world, what can't be created?
"The nine provinces' great land, the Yu Huang Gate's lineage, and the North Sea Continent's Shen Fu Mountain's lineage... if they fall into trouble, I hope you'll take care of them. If they no longer exist... then that's it." Yu Huang sighed, "I won't let you come in vain. In these nine tripods surrounding us... every year, after passing through the entire Tian Hong Water Palace and Kai Shan Shen Fu transformation, each tripod will produce two or three more drops of 'North Sea Spirit'. The longer the time, the more North Sea Spirit there will be. With so many North Sea Spirits, it's enough to help you build a powerful army."
Hong Qingshan was shocked and looked around at the nine three-legged cauldrons.
"Earlier, I saw the reflection inside, were they the spirits of Beihai? "Teng Qing Shan was stunned. "One or two more drops in each tripod every year, and that's after several thousand years have passed. Each tripod has had tens of thousands of drops, nine tripods, estimated to be over a hundred thousand drops."
Qinghu Island, there are two thousand Golden Scale Guards!
One hundred thousand?
A legion formed by one hundred thousand top martial artists?
Teng Qing Shan didn't dare think about it. Such an army would exhaust even hundreds of innate experts to death.
"Invincible Legion, Invincible Legion." Teng Qing Shan's heart rate accelerated as he immediately reached out to lift the lid of the cauldron.
"Huh? Can't open it?" Teng Qing Shan discovered that there seemed to be a thin layer of golden film on the surface of the cauldron lid.
"Haha, are you excited?" Yu Huang smiled and said, "But don't get too worked up, no matter how powerful the army is, it's just an army... In the nine states, what determines fate is still the ultimate martial power. As long as one reaches the Void Realm! One can ignore thousands of troops and horses, and kill pre-heavenly strong experts."
Hong Qingshan was like being drenched with a basin of cold water, and he calmed down.
"Yes. Now that I've returned to Yuan Zong, with so many Northern Sea spirits... if discovered, it's likely to bring about the downfall of the sect." Teng Qing Shan guessed, "Those who have entered the Void Realm in Yuan Zong are very few in number and rarely take action. It's likely that they're newly entered into the Void Realm and their strength is much weaker than other sects' Void Realm cultivators. They can barely protect themselves, let alone expand Yuan Zong."
Like Ru Moye Temple, Yu Huang Gate, and the Ying family, there must be powerful practitioners of Void Realm.
Kill the strong of Guiyuan Zong's virtual realm and take away the spirit of Beihai. It is entirely possible that this will happen.
"And... how am I supposed to take away these nine tripods?" Teng Qing Shan furrowed his brow, each tripod being half a person tall and roughly the same width as height. With only two hands, it was impossible for him to carry all nine tripods. "And... there are people from various sects surrounding us, what if we get discovered!"
The consequences are unthinkable.
What a pity...
So many North Sea spirits, seemingly good. But in fact, a lot of trouble. First, it's hard to take out, second, taking back to the original sect, the original sect doesn't dare to use it extensively. Just like 'Yu Huang Men'. Yu Huang Men itself has 'North Sea spirits', but Yu Huang Men has never established an extremely powerful army.
Yu Huang Men understood that without sufficient peak strength, if the army was too powerful, Yu Huang Men might become the target of public criticism.
"This North Sea Spirit... the best way to use it is like Yu Huangmen. A steady trickle, allowing the sect to thrive for a long time." Teng Qing Shan understood this point, "For a sect to gain an even higher status, what's important isn't the army, but rather the highest peak of experts."
If there is an almighty person, unifying the world would be very simple.
"Are you disappointed? Haha, the most important thing is one's own strength." Yu Huang smiled and said, "So, my second gift is on Mount Shenfu in the North Sea Continent."
"Divine Axe Mountain?" Teng Qing's eyebrows furrowed.
"Yes, Mount Axe God," said Yu Huang, "you wait a moment, take my axe to open the mountain! Next to the nine tripod cauldrons, there is an axe to open the mountain... You can't even move these nine tripods. Take up the axe to open the mountain, and you can take those nine tripods. At the same time... Bring this axe to Mount Axe God. When you arrive, my axe to open the mountain will combine with the imprint of the 36 styles of opening the mountain that I left on Mount Axe God, and you can deeply understand my strongest unique skill... As long as you understand two or three tenths of it, you can enter the virtual realm! Don't be surprised, this 36 styles of opening the mountain is even stronger than my Nine Tripod Heavenly Book."
Hong Qingshan was taken aback.
"The Nine Tripod Heavenly Book" is one of the four great divine classics. But "The 36 Open Mountain Styles", I've never heard of it myself.
But...
Yu Huang used an axe, but what was passed down is the "Nine Tripod Heavenly Book", which indeed left many people baffled. Teng Qing Shan has now guessed some of it.
"There is the divine axe of opening mountains, paired with the 'Thirty-six Forms of Opening Mountains'. As long as one is a pre-heavenly strong practitioner, no matter how dull-witted they are, within a hundred years they will definitely enter the Void Realm without any issues. Those with high innate talent can achieve it in twenty to thirty years." Yu Huang smiled and said, "The Void Realm... once you reach the Void Realm, isn't this vast world still yours to roam freely?"
Hong Qing Shan smiled, Yu Huang was indeed sinister, designing it this way... It seems that a trip to the North Sea Continent is unavoidable.
What an illusion!
In this world, I'm afraid no one dares to say that they can guarantee you'll enter the virtual realm within a hundred years. But Yu Huang dares to say it! Because he is Yu Huang!
