Zero To Hero In The Martial Arts Library Novel - Chapter 491

Hearing that the four great supreme-ruler clans had also discovered the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb, Ye Xiao could not help but feel a little stunned.

He did not expect that the other party had actually discovered the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb. How did they discover it?

The location of the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb was very concealed. Even if it was a supreme-rulerly Emperor, it was impossible to easily discover it without a special marking.

After all, the supreme-rulerly Emperors of the immemorial era were much stronger than the current supreme-rulerly Emperors. They also had many more tricks up their sleeves.

If they could not even defend against some supreme-rulerly Emperors, why would they still set up the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb for themselves?

All the supreme-rulerly Emperors of the immemorial era had probably been dug out long ago. “How did they discover it?” “I heard that they caught two Sacred Beasts and learned about it from their mouths.” Hearing Xia Xinyi’s explanation, Ye Xiao instantly understood.

If that was the case, he could more or less understand it.

Back then, when he killed those Sacred Beasts, due to the problem of time, he did not kill all of them.

After that, there would definitely be some Sacred Beasts that escaped from there.

It was not that Ye Xiao did not think of it, but that he had no way to stop them easily.

The highest level of the array was only the nine-star supreme array. It was clearly impossible to suppress the star beasts that were comparable to the late-middle-stage supreme-rulerly Kings. The method used in those supreme-rulerly Kings’ tombs was to sacrifice a certain amount of law energy by fusing it into the array.

That way, the array had the goal of suppressing even more powerful existences. It could even resist supreme-rulerly Emperors.

However, that method was only suitable for those supreme-rulerly Emperors who had died, not Ye Xiao.

It was just like how two people had 10,000 dollars.

A person who was on the verge of death would definitely not care about that 10,000 dollars. Even if he had to throw it all away, he would not hesitate.

As for a living person, asking him to throw away 10,000 dollars, would be out of the question.

If Ye Xiao used up the law energy in his body, it would cause a series of serious chain reactions.

The scariest thing was that it would affect his cultivation. If it was not done properly, it would even cause his cultivation to drop.

A drop in cultivation was not a simple drop. After that, he would use the law energy to make up for it.

That kind of injury would harm one’s talent.

It was just like how a woman would normally get sick while pregnant.

If she got sick, she would take some medicine, eat some nutrients, and replenish her body. She would recover very quickly.

II

If she were to get pregnant and give birth to a child, her physical fitness would definitely drop by 100 percent!

No matter how much he replenished himself in the future, he would not be able to make up for

it.

Therefore, Ye Xiao would not sacrifice the law energy in his body to create some array that could seal a Sacred Beast.

However, that was not necessarily a bad thing.

That was because, in reality, one of the requirements to enter the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb was to reach 9,999 existences above the fifth level of the supreme-rulerslayer realm.

It was not enough to rely on the Xuan Yuan clan and the Netherworld clan alone. The two supreme-ruler clans had not brought the entire supreme-ruler clan there, but only a small part of them. In such a situation, they had to find a way to gather more people from other places in order to break through the tomb.

“Have they entered the tomb yet?”

“A portion of them have already entered, but there aren’t many of them. There are only a few supreme-rulerly Kings. The rest are guarding outside.”

Ye Xiao could not help but ask in surprise,

“Did the supreme-rulerly Emperors not enter?”

“No.”

Xia Xinyi shook her head.

“The supreme-rulerly Emperors can not enter easily. A long time ago, there was such a case. The supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb was tested to a certain extent.

“If a supreme-rulerly Emperor enters, it will most likely cause a reaction from the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb’s setup, resulting in an explosion.

“If things go wrong, not only will all the resources in the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb be destroyed, it might even cause the supreme-rulerly Emperor to fall.”

The corner of Ye Xiao’s mouth could not help but twitch violently.

Too ruthless!

Those supreme-rulerly Emperors from the immemorial era were simply more ruthless than the last. However, thinking about it carefully, it was quite normal.

After all, no one wanted their grave to be dug up by someone else after they died. Perhaps the other party would even take out their own body and do some strange things.

For example, cutting off some important places.

No one would want to accept it, right?

Since they did not want to accept it, they would have to set up some traps.

That was because, if the supreme-rulerly Emperor went in, there was a high chance that he would open the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb and enter it. However, if the supreme-rulerly King went in, he might not be able to open the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb.

That was the key reason why existences below the supreme-rulerly Emperor could enter the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb.

“Did you get any results from the investigation?”

“I did. It’s said that it requires 9,999 existences above the fifth level of the supreme-rulerslayer realm to be able to open and enter the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb.”

Ye Xiao nodded.

He knew that information long ago, but he did not say it in the beginning.

That was because if he said everything in too much detail, the Xuan Yuan clan would definitely suspect him. What was his motive?

If he only mentioned the existence of the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb, the Xuan Yuan clan could still understand that he was thinking from the Xuan Yuan clan’s point of view.

Sometimes, it was like that. If you explained something too clearly, others would not believe you.

It was good that he did not go too far.

“Are both sides recruiting people now?”

Xia Xinyi answered.

“Yes. Although 9,999 existences above the fifth level of the supreme-rulerslayer realm weren’t many, not all of the six great supreme-ruler clans were there. The number of people they could bring was limited. They couldn’t meet this requirement altogether.

“Therefore, after a short discussion, they would recruit some low-level supreme-ruler clans from the nearby star areas.

“As long as they are above the fifth level of the supreme-rulerslayer realm, they can come and join the exploration of the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb. Moreover, no matter who it is, the resources they plunder will be split 50-50.

“Currently, the response outside is very enthusiastic. I reckon that it won’t be long before we can gather enough people.”

Ye Xiao could not help but sigh.

As expected, it was easy to get things done by people with great influence. Look at their efficiency, directly recruiting from the nearby star areas.

Domineering!

Of course, the six supreme-ruler clans could also find enough manpower from their own supreme-ruler clans.

However, it would take at least a month to open the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb.

Besides that, they might lose more manpower. At the same time, they might put their supreme-ruler clan into a safe cordon because of the lack of manpower.

Many of the martial arts masters above the fifth level of the supreme-rulerslayer realm that were recruited from nearby were recruited to be cannon fodder.

If they died, so be it. Even if they did not die, the resources they obtained would be shared equally with them. They would not lose much. Most importantly, the martial arts masters that were recruited were the strongest. It was probably impossible for them to surpass the fifth level of the supreme-rulerly King realm. Meanwhile, the six great supreme-ruler clans all had ninth-level supreme-rulerly Kings.

Facing ninth-level supreme-rulerly Kings, even if they entered the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb and encountered something good, they would not be able to snatch it away from them.

“How about this, you think of a way to arrange a spot for me. When the time comes, you can bring me along.”

Xia Xinyi nodded.

“I’ll create an identity for you as a martial arts master of the Xia family. When the time comes, you can follow me in. I’ll pass the other party’s appearance map to you. You can use the disguise technique and it should be easy for you to pass the test.

“I’ll report the quota later. After passing, we just have to wait for the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb to open.”

Ye Xiao nodded. Then, as if he had thought of something, he spoke again, “How many supreme-rulerly Emperors have come from the four great supreme-ruler clans?” “Four have come!”

“As expected!”

Ye Xiao’s eyes revealed a hint of vigilance.

It seemed like he still had to be on guard.

From the seventh level of the supreme-rulerly King realm onwards, the difference between each level was like the difference between heaven and earth. The past cross-realm battle data was not suitable to be applied to the supreme-rulerly Emperor.

He did not know to what extent he could fight with the supreme-rulerly Emperor at the moment.

How many moves could he exchange? Could it be only one move? Perhaps… He could not even survive one move?

After all, when he used his Primordial Pupil to peep at the sky previously, the supreme-rulerly Emperor of the Xuan Yuan clan and the supreme-rulerly Emperor of the Netherworld clan could clearly sense it.

Therefore, he was really not sure how strong the supreme-rulerly Emperor was.

If the two supreme-rulerly Emperors here could resist the other two supreme-rulerly Emperors, would he be able to advance to the ninth level of the supreme-rulerly King realm in the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb? If he could advance, he might be able to resist a supreme-rulerly Emperor with the help of so many methods.

Even so, there was still one supreme-rulerly Emperor that no one could resist.

At the end of the day, the other party was still too strong. The suppression in numbers was a pain in the ass.

‘Forget it, I’ll just take it one step at a time.’

At this point, he did not have any good ideas.

He had to go to the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb because, after the supreme-rulerly Emperor’s tomb was infiltrated, the secret of the Divine Kingdom’s treasury might be exposed. He had to think of a way to make another advancement before the Divine Kingdom’s treasury was exposed.

Only then would he have the chance to see if he could advance to the supreme-rulerly Emperor realm before the other party discovered the Divine Kingdom’s treasury.

Only by advancing to that level would he be able to absorb all the power of laws into his body.

Even if he could not refine them all at once, he could at least absorb them into his body to prevent others from snatching them away.

The supreme crystal mines below were almost dug out.

Under the arduous efforts of Huan Liuli and the others, even he did not know how many supreme crystals he had in his hands.

Those supreme crystals could help him use the Minor Destiny technique.

The speed at which the Minor Destiny technique burned spiritual energy was too fast. Even if he had the Creation masterpiece technique in his body, which allowed him to absorb spiritual energy without limits, it could not make up for the consumption of the Minor Destiny technique. Especially in the future, he might have to cross ranks to deal with prodigies in the supreme-rulerly Emperor realm.

Under such circumstances, the supreme crystal had become a very good consumable that could allow him to quickly recover his spiritual energy.

At the moment, he should create some top-grade armor and Treasured Artifacts in advance.

His previous armor was not of sufficient level. It was no longer able to match his current cultivation at the eighth level of the supreme-rulerly King realm.

If he could create better armor, he would have a higher chance of winning against the supreme-rulerly Emperor in the future!
