Top Emperor of Martial Arts

A faint fragrance was emitted from the dense forest in the early morning. Near the river, Fatty was carrying a sleeping young man on his back as he walked. Behind Fatty was a young man holding a long halberd. He walked steadily and followed him.    

The three of them looked young, but they were in a sorry state now. They were Chu Yan and the other two. After living in the dense forest for three months, their hair was as dry as dry grass. Their clothes were ragged and dirty, like barbarians in the mountains.    

"Let me do it." Hua Zhixu sped up behind them.    

"Ok!" The fat man nodded his head as he panted heavily. After putting Chu Yan down, he could not help but say: "It has been more than a month. Why hasn't Mr Chu woken up yet?"    

Hua Zhixu sighed as well. The current Chu Yan was very strange. His injuries had already recovered, and his life force was flourishing. However, he still didn't wake up. He gave people the feeling that he had lost his soul, as if he only had a body. As for the Nascent Divinity, it seemed like it had been sealed somewhere in his body.    

Time flew by like a flash of light, and it slipped through the gaps of his fingers. More than a month had passed, and in this month, Fatty had broken through to the eighth level of the Sovereign realm. Hua Zhixu had also officially stepped into the Peak of Emperor, and was only a step away from the Venerable One. He was the strongest existence below the Sovereign realm.    

The Venerable One was different from the Third, King, and Sovereign realms. Because it was difficult to become a Sovereign, whether it was in the Dust or the Six Domains Star River, Venerable One was the center of strength. There were many talented people who had reached the Venerable One at the age of thirty, but even after a hundred years or a thousand years, they still couldn't become a Sovereign, which caused their path of cultivation to come to an end.    

This was also the reason why the Sovereign aura was inviolable to those below the Sovereign realm, Emperor. It was a realm that transcended, a qualitative change, and the Venerable One was still at the level of the Primordial Energy.    

On this day, Chu Yan finally woke up. He opened his eyes in pain. There was a faint golden light flashing in his eyes, but it only lasted for a brief moment. Then, he felt a sharp pain all over his body, as if every joint in his body was not his, and his mouth was burning.    

"Water!" Chu Yan let out a moan.    

"Mr Chu!" Fatty immediately ran over in surprise. He helped Chu Yan up and gave him a mouthful of spring water.    

"You finally woke up!" Hua Zhixu also revealed a brilliant smile. His hanging heart finally relaxed.    

"What is going on? Where is this place?" Chu Yan had recovered a lot. He felt that his entire body was very heavy. He looked around at the unfamiliar environment and couldn't help but ask.    

"Have you really forgotten?" Fatty and Hua Zhixu were speechless. This time, Chu Yan had shocked the heavens and the earth. One Emperor had killed two Great Sovereigns and destroyed Semen Sarcandrae's divine sense, but Chu Yan didn't remember it at all.    

Chu Yan had a blank look on his face. His memory was still stuck in the dream of the Divine Palace. In the dream, he had witnessed the changes of the Divine Palace in three hundred years, as well as the extraordinary demeanor of Qin Ruomeng and Chu Hanfeng. His words were like the power of the law in the world, and he had the courage to fight and kill gods and devils, but as for what happened after that, he had no recollection of it at all.    

Hua Zhixu recalled Ancestor Tiandao's words and shook his head helplessly. "Forget it. You were unconscious earlier. Fatty and I had a conflict with someone, so I took you away. You have been unconscious for a month and a half, but you have finally woken up. If you don't wake up soon, we are going to leave you in this dense forest."    

"I slept for so long?" Chu Yan was slightly shocked. A month and a half was definitely not a short period of time for him, especially at this critical juncture. There were simply too many people in the Ancient Demon Star Domain who wanted to kill him.    

"Take a look at your body. Do you feel any discomfort?" Hua Zhixu asked from the side.    

Chu Yan nodded and sat up cross-legged. He wanted to circulate the Primordial Energy, but then his eyes froze. He found that there was no Primordial Energy in his body. He couldn't even circulate his Qi, let alone circulate his Qi.    

This sudden change shocked Chu Yan. The last time he had this feeling was when he first entered the Lau family to propose marriage... The Life body was one star, the first layer of the mortal world, the mortal body. But at that time, he still had at least one foundation. But it was different now. He couldn't even be considered to be at the first level of the mortal realm, so he could only be called a mortal.    

And now, turning into a mortal was definitely a huge disaster for him. After all, Old Yao had accompanied him back then, and he was now in the Wilderness. It was enough to deter some people, but he was now in the Ancient Fey. Becoming a mortal was equivalent to putting himself in an irrecoverable state. Jiang family, Demon Mountain Gate, Celestial Demon Peak... No one would let him go.    

"Father... Mother, you two have caused your son's death... Look at how you two have been loving each other for three hundred years. In the end, your son has turned into a trash. Are you playing with me?" Chu Yan had a bitter expression on his face.    

"What's wrong? Look at you, you don't look like you're injured." Hua Zhixu asked curiously.    

"No injuries. It's just that your cultivation base has been crippled, and you have become a mortal." Chu Yan said plainly. The next moment, Hua Zhixu and Fatty were shocked. Chu Yan had become a mortal?    

"Don't joke with me!"    

"Damn you! Do you think I would joke with this kind of thing?!" Chu Yan was also speechless. Hua Zhixu frowned again, and then he took a step forward. Yuan Qi turned into astral energy and enveloped him. He looked into Chu Yan's body for a while. In the next moment, his eyes were filled with shock. He saw that Chu Yan's Dantian was empty. Without any Primordial Energy, he looked like an ordinary mortal.    

"Are you really crippled?" Hua Zhixu asked in a serious tone.    

"You are the one who is crippled! I only lost my Primordial Energy, not my origin vein. I can still repair it. " Chu Yan sighed. What Chu Yan said was right. His current condition was different from being crippled. Normally, he would be crippled by someone. It was referring to the shattering of the Dantian and the rupturing of his origin vein. He would never be able to step into the Martial Path, but he was not... If his body was in good condition, then the Primordial Energy would disappear. Therefore, he could still cultivate.    

However, in Hua Zhixu's opinion, Chu Yan was like a cripple now. The people that the Ancient Demon Star Domain wanted to kill could line up in a long street. Now, he had become a mortal, and was cultivating once again? Who would give him this chance?    

However, seeing that Chu Yan was still calm, Hua Zhixu sighed. He also knew that... Chu Yan was not the kind of person who would write everything on his face. He must be in even more pain right now. He did not say anything else. "Then you can start cultivating again. I will protect you."    

"I don't think you need to cultivate again." Chu Yan hesitated and said, "My Primordial Energy doesn't seem to have disappeared. I feel that they are still in my body, but they seem to be hidden somewhere. If I can find them, I should be able to recover my strength."    

"Really?" Hua Zhixu said excitedly. Chu Yan also nodded his head with uncertainty. His current body was too special. He didn't know what he had experienced before, but there must be a reason why the Emperor would not scatter the Primordial Energy for no reason.    

"Try it yourself." Hua Zhixu sighed. This was the only thing he could do now. Chu Yan couldn't be crippled. He was the backbone of their group. Fortunately, Hua Zhixu was invincible under the heavens. As long as he didn't encounter a Venerable One, he would be able to protect Chu Yan.    

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. During this half month, Chu Yan had been meditating in the secluded forest. He looked into his body, and there were a few times when he came to the Nine Heaven Profound Pagoda. He wanted to find out the reason behind it, as well as the scattered Primordial Energy.    

In the end, there was no other way. Chu Yan's Nascent Divinity slowly walked forward, directly arriving at the Nine Heaven Profound Pagoda. He stood in front of the door to the sixth floor of the Nine Heaven Profound Pagoda and took a deep breath, wanting to try and enter.    

"Maybe I can find some reason for entering the sixth floor?" Chu Yan thought. He slowly placed his hand on the stone door. Unfortunately, in the next moment, there was a strong repelling force that pushed him back, and it was accompanied by a dignified voice.    

"You can't enter this place yet!" The Nine Heaven Profound Pagoda rumbled like thunder.    

"My Primordial Energy is gone. I have to enter and find a way!" Chu Yan let out a low roar.    

"Extreme strength. Looks like you have not truly comprehended it! The heavens and earth are nothing more than Yin and Yang. When Yin and Yang combine together, there will only be Heaven and Earth. There will be men and women, and Yin and Yang. If you comprehend the Dao within it, disperse the Primordial Energy and return to your original state! " The Nine Heaven Profound Pagoda's voice continued to resound.    

Chu Yan frowned. Was it Yin and Yang again? Extreme strength?    

Chu Yan looked at the sixth level of the Nine Heaven Profound Pagoda. He knew that he definitely wouldn't be able to step onto it now, so he gave up. The Primordial Energy returned to the extreme strength of the first level, preparing to thoroughly study this so-called extreme strength.    

Also, he wanted to find out what had happened between Qin Ruomeng and Chu Hanfeng that year. Qin Ruomeng was the master of the Divine Palace and the god of all living beings. Why was she forced to hide in the Dust in the end? More than ten years ago, who was able to take Qin Ruomeng away? Who was it? Who was his true enemy?    

Unfortunately, Chu Yan didn't gain anything. He couldn't comprehend the fourth bloodline in his body, so he could only give up in the end.    

Chu Yan had been observing the Yin and Yang. What was Yin and Yang? There were two sides to everything in the world. One side was Yin and the other side was Yang. He kept looking into the secrets of the heavens. Finally, half a month later, Chu Yan opened his eyes. There was a bright light flashing in his eyes.    

"One Yin and one Yang, I understand! Break and stand, don't break and don't stand! Is this yin and yang? " Chu Yan was pleasantly surprised. He now understood that his Primordial Energy had not collapsed. Instead, it had turned into Yin and Yang within his body. Right now, all he needed to do was to return the Primordial Energy to his body.    

"You've found a way?" Hua Zhixu walked over in pleasant surprise.    

"Yes! I should be able to recover in half a month!" Chu Yan said confidently. This time, he couldn't help but recover his Yuan Qi. He felt that there was still a force pushing him in his body. It was very likely that he could make another breakthrough, or even become a respected figure.    

Hua Zhixu heaved a sigh of relief. In the beginning, he was still worried that Chu Yan would be crippled. However, since Chu Yan said that he could recover his Yuan Qi, everything wouldn't be a problem anymore.    

"You might not be able to wait for half a month!" However, at this moment, an evil voice came from the dense forest. Chu Yan and Hua Zhixu squinted their eyes and saw a few figures walking towards them from afar. In front of them was a huge willow word.    

"Lau family!" Hua Zhixu's eyes narrowed. He saw a young man from the Lau family leading the group. He looked at Hua Zhixu coldly and said, "Let me introduce myself. The eldest son of the Liu family, Lau Feng. You are the one who killed Lau Jingtian? I should thank you. You have one less person to compete with me for the inheritance. But he is still a member of the Liu family. Since you killed him... Then pay with your life for him! "
