Huwang Xiao nodded slightly at the end of their report. Despite the high number of deaths overall, it was still within Huwang Xiao’s range of acceptance.
Although the ocean Tribe, Green Devil Tribe, Skeleton Tribe, and six other tribes colluded with Deities Templar, it was illogical for Huwang Xiao to kill all of their Saint realm experts. That would greatly weaken the overall strength of his makes after unifying the Ten Directions Continent.
From your tabulations, Huwang Xiao had exterminated near to one-third of the nine colluding tribes’ Saint realm experts. Whereas the thirty-seven tribes and clans which were induced to rebel lost two-tenths under Huwang Xiao’s hands.
This right time, among the three hundred high-level Saint realm experts from Deities Templar, Cosmos God Cult, and LAS VEGAS, including Li Lu, only a small number escaped, no more than thirty people. In short, that they had lost more than 2 hundred and seventy top experts to Huwang Xiao!
In this expedition, Deities Templar, Cosmos God Cult, and Sin City suffered insurmountable damage!
Consequently, Huwang Xiao discussed with Ao Kun, Lei Ge, and Chuck about the laws and regulations for the newly unified Ten Directions Continent. Of course, ‘discussion’ designed Huwang Xiao’s decisions.
After defining the foundation of law, Huwang Xiao elected new Patriarchs for the Sea Tribe, Green Devil Tribe, and the others whose patriarch had fallen. It had been to be announced the next day.
In the long run, Huwang Xiao suddenly asked a question, “Which of you know of any cultivation techniques that can control a person’s soul?” Huwang Xiao did not conceal his suspicions about Li Lu’s condition to the 3 of them.
The three exchanged a quiet glance amongst themselves.
“Liege Lord, to the one’s knowledge, in the old days there was a technique called Soul Seize Red Dirt Reversal where one would implant a soul seize seed inside someone’s soul to control them. Moreover, this system could erase area of the seeded person’s memory space.” Chuck spoke after spending a short while searching his brain.
“Wicked ancient cultivation technique, Soul Seize Red Dust Reversal Technique!” A gleam flickered in his eye, “How do you break this technique?”
“The only way to break this technique is to kill the person who cast it, then the soul seize seed controlling the victim’s mind will normally vanish. However, the lost storage would not return.” Chuck respectfully answered.
This made the frown on Huwang Xiao’s brows deepened.
Kill Deities Templar’s Preceptor Ying Tian? Deities Templar Preceptor Ying Tian was most likely someone who had broken to God Realm, eliminating him was easier said than done!
Furthermore, if Li Lu’s lost memories couldn't be recovered, would they forever be strangers then?
Even though Ancient Puppetry Art and Soul Mandate he practiced could also erase part of other people’s memories, there was no mention of having the ability to restore them.
“Also, from what I understand, after practicing this Spirit Seize Red Dust Reversal Technique, it is taboo for the cultivator to have any intimate relationship with women.” Chuck added, “If they break the taboo, then their accumulated Soul Seize Red Dirt Reversal qi would dissipate, greatly damaging their cultivation, so much that it would be difficult for them to have any cultivation discovery in the future!”
Huwang Xiao was dazed for an instant.
‘What’s this? If what Chuck said is true, then that Temple Preceptor Ying Tian is not much different from an eunuch! Even if he has a good package below, it cannot be used.’
“Do you men know if there’s any technique that can restore someone’s remembrances?” Recovering from his momentary gaffe, Huwang Xiao asked.
This time, all three of them shook their heads and were excused a moment later, leaving Huwang Xiao alone in contemplation.
Admittedly, he previously thought himself unrivaled below God Realm, but today after fighting Li Lu, he realized that his own strength was weak in comparison.
If he spirit transformed with both black and blue dragon, he was confident in defeating Li Lu. However, below the God World there would only be more powerful geniuses even more powerful than Li Lu.
Therefore, Huwang Xiao must still strive to enhance his strength. If he could break through to Tenth Order Saint world, he could easily beat experts on Li Lu’s level.
“Tenth Order Saint realm…” Huwang Xiao muttered the words to himself.
At the moment, there have been still seven primordial divine dragons inside the Xumi Temple. But… there is no more Dragon God Grass!
In the coming days, regardless of the methods, he had to find enough Dragon God Grass in order to break to Tenth Order Saint realm in the shortest time possible.
Just as Huwang Xiao was thinking about finding more Dragon God Lawn, the Dragon Pearl on his forehead shook slightly, a warm circulation of energy pass on throughout Huwang Xiao’s body.
Surprised, Huwang Xiao quickly directed his spiritual force internally to get the hazy dragon shadow inside the Dragon Pearl glimmering with a smooth golden light, as if it was about to come alive. But it didn't show any response when he tried to talk to it through his consciousness.
Since Huwang Xiao advanced to Ninth Order Saint realm, the Dragon Pearl had stopped spewing true dragon fact into his body, as though all the real dragon essence had been absorbed by him.
Staring at the dragon shadow which experienced produced more solid over the years, his instincts told him that it would revive very soon, and that would be enough time when he and the Dragon Pearl fully assimilate as you.
The night passed slowly.
Light gradually slice through the blanket of darkness as sunlight rose steadily on the horizon.
Early morning, Huwang Xiao summoned all tribes and clans’ experts to the Nine Dragons Temple. Ao Kun recited the new laws as well as the names of the new patriarchs of the ocean Tribe, Green Devil Tribe, and others.
When Huwang Xiao stood up to announce the 10 Directions Continent as one unified entity, all professionals knelt down, lauding, “Liege Lord Beast God’s supreme glory! Ruling Ten Directions Continent for thousands of autumns in decades to come!”
“Good. Now, all of you prepare to depart to Starcloud Continent with me!” Huwang Xiao announced.
Depart to Starcloud Continent!
Return to Asura’s Gate!
Initially, Huwang Xiao prepared to use 8 weeks time for you to reorganize the countless tribes and tasks in Ten Directions Continent. However, he suddenly got a change of brain last night!
The matter about him unifying the Ten Directions Continent would spread out very quickly in the Martial Spirit World. Amidst the unrest and chaos, it was very likely that the Cosmos God Cult would be up to their tricks once more, wanting to provoke the Distinct Void Door, White Phoenix House, and the other twelve super pushes to confront him!
Which was why Huwang Xiao wanted to return to the Asura’s Gate before he Cosmos God Cult, Distinct Void Door, White Phoenix House, as well as others reached an alliance, clearing these obstacles one by one and subjugate them!
If he waited for these forces to get together before taking action, it might be a hundred times more difficult.

To Starcloud Continent?!
All the tribes and clans’ experts were taken by surprise by Huwang Xiao’s order, but non-e of these acquired the courage to object, only complying with obedience.
In the next second, Huwang Xiao presented the Godly Mt. Xumi, transferring everyone inside. Making this trip back to the Asura’s Gate, Huwang Xiao preferred to have his motions unnoticed.
With his current strength, going non-stop at his quickest speed, he only needed thirty days at most to attain the Asura
’s Gate headquarters. For this journey, apart from Saint world experts, he did not include some other disciples. Just these Saint realm experts easily exceeded three thousand in number.
More than three thousand Saint world experts!
This horrifying force was enough to flatten the complete Starcloud Continent!
One day later, the news headlines about Huwang Xiao unifying the Ten Directions Continent spread like wildfire through the whole Martial Spirit World. Once again, the Martial Soul World was shaken to the primary.
“Huwang Xiao actually succeeded in unifying the Ten Directions Continent?!”
“I heard that Deities Templar, Cosmos God Cult, and LAS VEGAS colluded to avoid the merging wedding ceremony, sending out 3 hundred high-level Saint realm experts in total. They even were able to persuade the ocean tribe and Green Devil Tribe, even employing low despicable means, using the rare ancient poison One Day Scatter. Still, Deities Templar’s Holy Maiden was beaten back again by Huwang Xiao, being forced to flee miserably! You know, only thirty people managed to escape!”
“Given that Huwang Xiao has unified the 10 Directions Continent, Deities Templar’s days are going to come to an end!”
…
Starcloud Continent, Cosmos God Cult’s headquarters. Within the Cosmos God City, Xie Hui’s face was extremely grim. Never before had he bore such an ugly expression on his face.
A group of Cosmos God Cult experts stood silently in front of Xie Hui, heads right down to their chests. No-one dared to utter a word.
In the last expedition to Ten Directions Continent, Cosmos God Cult sent a hundred high-level Saint realm experts, together with Deities Templar and Sin City. In the end, not only experienced they didn't stop Huwang Xiao, instead, all the experts they delivered passed away in Huwang Xiao’s hand!
Three factions’ three hundred high-level Saint realm experts went, but only a handful of Deities Templar and Sin City’s experts escaped. Not a single one of their Cosmos God Cult experts survived.
When he first heard the news, Xie Hui as the Young Lord of Cosmos God Cult, fainted on the spot! Fainted into total oblivion!
Now he was conscious. But every second, the thought of those one hundred high-level Saint world experts made his center feel like it had been sliced with a frigid frosty knife.
One hundred high-level Saint realm experts, ah!
Regardless of the Cosmos God Cult being the first sect among the twelve super forces on Starcloud Continent, taking almost all their headquarters and branches’ Saint realm experts into calculation, it merely had slightly over 3 hundred!
Amongst them, a hundred and ten were high-level Saint realm experts!
“Have the Distinct Void Door, White Phoenix House, Nine Yang Valley, and the other invited super forces arrived?” A moment later, Xie Hui spoke, breaking the heavy silence.
Law Enforcer Chen Xiaofeng took a step of progress, “Replying to Young Lord, the Distinct Void Door and White Phoenix House experts are estimated to arrive in Cosmos God City late in the afternoon. But Nine Yang Valley can only make it here tomorrow!”
Xie Hui nodded with a muted manifestation. Fortunately, he made contingency arrangements in case of the worst end result, while on the other hands cooperating with Deities Templar and LAS VEGAS to hinder Huwang Xiao’s plan of unifying the Ten Directions Continent. When he sent out the one hundred high-level experts, he also delivered invitations to Distinct Void Door, White Phoenix House, and six other very causes’ experts to discuss developing an alliance to cope with Huwang Xiao.
“Huwang-Xiao-Long!” Xie Hui’s frenzy murderous aura increased sky high.
“Young Lord, now that Huwang Xiao has unified the Ten Directions Continent, everyone in the Martial Spirit World is wary and feels threatened. The Distinct Void Door, White Phoenix House, and the other eight super makes definitely will agree to ally with our Cosmos God Cult.” Legislation Enforcer Hu Chen reassured. “But, are we really going to annihilate the Asura’s Gate following the alliance comes to be?!”
Xie Hui confirmed, “That’s right. With us nine very pushes allied collectively, the first thing we must do before Huwang Xiao rushes back is to annihilate the Asura’s Gate like crushing dried out weed and smashing rotten wood, weakening Huwang Xiao’s forces!”
“Then, what should we do about this Huwang Family?” Regulation Enforcer Chen Xiaofeng asked.
“The Huwang Family?” A cruel light gleamed in Xie Hui’s eyes, “Don’t kill them first, capture them alive. I have a million ways to make sure they are hover between life and loss of life until Huwang Xiao makes it back again to the Asura’s Gate. It will be my pleasure to torture the Huwang Family before Huwang Xiao!”
After all, he and Huwang Xiao already formed a grudge, one of them must die for the other to live, thus he cared not for any consequences that could further enrage Huwang Xiao.
Rules Enforcer Hu Chen laughed wickedly and said, “Young Lord, I heard that Huwang Xialong’s mother and sister are both beauties, after we’ve caught them, I am hoping Young Lord could pass them to this subordinate. This subordinate will ensure that the three thousand Enforcement Hall disciples take turns to treat them both very well every single day!”
Xie Hui understood the underlying meaning of Hu Chen’s words and his disposition lightened, “Fine, at that time I’ll allow your three thousand Enforcement Hall disciples to take good care of them! But, watch it! They cannot perish early!”
Hu Chen chuckled, “Rest assured, Young Lord! Even though the Enforcement Hall’s three thousand disciples are all robust and energetic, they know how to control themselves. What’s more, our Enforcement Hall has a special secret drug that’s guaranteed to make them torn between heaven and hell, and will not die no matter what!”
Xie Hui laughed agreeably, “Very good then. Huwang Xiao has just unified the Ten Directions Continent, to organize everything properly would require a while, and hurrying back to Starcloud Continent will take at least one month’s time. Us nine super causes should come to an alliance contract tomorrow, and strike the Asura’s Gate the day after. In five days time, we will stand upon the ruins of the Asura’s Gate headquarters!”
While Xie Hui and the Cosmos God Cult experts were conspiring on how to attack the Asura’s Gate headquarters and catch the Huwang Family, Huwang Xiao was rushing back again to the Asura’s Gate headquarters with the beastmen tribes and demonic beasts clans’ experts.
Time flowed by, and 3 times passed soon enough.
When the sky darkened, Huwang Xiao ceased to rest on a random mountain peak. The real essence energy in his dantian was churning as he breathed out a mouth of foul qi. Relating to his rate, he would probably be coming to the Asura’s Gate headquarters by the morrow at noon.
After resting for a while, Huwang Xiao flew up again, continuing his journey such as a bright shooting star in the night sky, disappearing without a trace.
Slowly, the dark veil receded, welcoming the dawn of a new day.
Under the morning hours sunlight, the planet earth began to warm up.
“Dali City.” Huwang Xiao landed not far away from the entrance into a city. This Dali City was one of the cities under Distinct Void Door’s governance. Passing three oblasts after this Dali City was the Asura’s Gate place.
“They say that time the Cosmos God Cult has already made an alliance with Distinct Void Door, White Phoenix House, and six other super forces to attack the Asura’s Gate in another two days. They’re seeking to wrap everything up before Huwang Xiao rushes back!”
“Nine super makes allied jointly, the Asura’s Gate is going to be up in smokes for sure!”
“Although Huwang Xiao has conquered and unified the 10 Directions Continent, with the Cosmos God Cult and the nine super forces’ might mixed, it’s more than enough to oppose Huwang Xiao!”
“Who knows if the Bedlam Lands’ Sin City would blend in at the last minute as well. The Snow Dragon City, Imperial Saber City, Green Ghost City might also sign up for the alli
ance with the Cosmos God Cult to besiege Huwang Xiao!”
Stopping here, Huwang Xiao had planned to rest in Dali City for some time before hurrying again, however, hearing these discussions in passing from the band of young family disciples, a feeling of urgency emerged, as well as anger. Inside a flicker, his number disappeared from the spot without anyone noticing.
Half of a day later, when sunlight was positioned at highest during noon.
Above the Asura’s Gate headquarters, there was a noticeable spatial fluctuation as a figure surfaced from the void. This person was Huwang Xiao who just made it back again.
The moment the spatial fluctuations appeared, Zhao Shu and Zhang Fu both felt it. They both dashed out from where they were, and seeing that it was Huwang Xiao, pleasure made an appearance on their faces as they quickly stepped up in salute, “Sovereign, you’ve returned!”
Huwang Xiao couldn’t resist showing a smile after seeing Zhao Shu and Zhang Fu: “I’ve returned.”
At this time, the Huwang Family and the Heaven Devouring Beast, Lil’ Tian, all ran right out of the hall. Upon viewing Huwang Xiao, each of them broke out into a wide smile.
“Xiao!”
“Your government!”
Ch.501
“Father, Mother!” Seeing his parents, Huwang Xiao walked up to them. A warm feeling packed his heart.
“It’s good you’ve returned safely, it’s good!” His Dad Huwang Peng gave Huwang Xiao’s shoulder a squeeze, repeating in a glad tone of voice. In the blink of an attention, it had been four and a half years since Huwang Xiao went to the Ten Directions Continent.
Huwang Xiao looked at his parents, Huwang Peng and Su Yan. Even though there weren’t any obvious differences to their appearances compared to the time he left, Huwang Xiao could clearly feel that their vitality had dwindled significantly.
In fact, counting the years, his parents were almost sixty in age.
