Supreme Divine Book

Han Chen left Xue Xi's room and walked to the center of the courtyard's pavilion, gratitude gushing out from between his brows.    

"It's nothing. I just allowed her to grasp the structure and meaning of all the symbols in the Emperor Palace, as well as the arrangement of the Emperor Seal's array formations. As long as she spends more time, she would be able to complete it by herself."    

Zhongli Yanchang replied.    

Her tone was casual, and she didn't seem to mind.    

But in actuality, Zhongli Yanchang had saved Xue Xi more than just a little bit of time.    

If an ordinary person wanted to completely master those six thousand high-grade Runes, it would even take them several years.    

Not to mention arranging these runes in all sorts of ways to create sealing spells and formations.    

Han Chen knew Zhongli Yanchang's personality.    

No matter how big the matter was, it wouldn't be a big deal if it came from her mouth.    

"Then in your opinion, will Xue Xi be able to stand out in the Holy Maiden of Kaihuang's Great Assembly?" Han Chen casually asked.    

"Difficult, very difficult!"    

"Oh? Didn't you pass down your Emperor Seal to her? "    

"These are two different things." Zhongli Yanchang decisively replied.    

"For example, I have a person who has never learnt any martial arts. One day, he had obtained a peerless Martial Technique. This peerless Martial Technique was all-encompassing and contained all sorts of powerful techniques. After familiarizing himself with it, he will know which techniques can be combined together to unleash a greater power. But do you think that he can become a Grandmaster? "    

"No way!" Han Chen didn't even need to think before shaking his head, "Just knowing that the combination of each move isn't enough, he can't use it, it's still unnecessary."    

"That's right, that's what happened to your little girlfriend. Even if she knew how to create all of the Emperor Seal, it would be in vain if they were not able to rank her. "    

Zhongli Yanchang paused for a while, and continued, "To draw a rune, you need a huge amount of power as the foundation, and perfect control of the rune. After creating this rune, the rune itself also contained an extremely violent energy. Once the control is not good, there will be no success. "    

And all of these, were things that Zhongli Yanchang could not directly teach Xue Xi.    

This was because everyone's innate talent and nurturing after birth would affect their ability to control runes.    

No matter how much a person knew, it didn't mean that he could freely use these runes to create powerful formations and sealing arts.    

Simply put, Zhongli Yanchang had taught Xue Xi how to use runes, but whether or not she could use it in reality would depend on her own abilities.    

On the other hand, Xie Shuang …    

Leaving aside the purity of the Nine Emperor Bloodline for now.    

Just based on the time alone, they had all come to the Sacred Gate over a hundred years ago. Their time in making contact with the Emperor Seal far surpassed Xue Xi's.    

With just Zhongli Yanchang's help, it was still impossible for Xue Xi to fight against them.    

"Although he is qualified to be the Holy Maiden of Kaihuang, there is no hope. But to attract the attention of the sacred door, and to prove that there are still no problems. If that little girlfriend of yours is truly talented enough, she might even be able to break through the holy gate's current structure. This caused the higher echelons of the Sacred Gate to delay selecting a new Holy Maiden, allowing them to continue observing. Of course, I'm just saying that it's possible. "    

Zhongli Yanchang thought about the situation more comprehensively.    

With her understanding of the upper echelons of the Sacred Gate, it would be best if Xue Xi shone his brilliance during this Holy Maiden of Kaihuang Election. It was very likely that the higher ups of the Sacred Gate would continue to observe for a while to see who had the best talent and the most ability.    

Then, Qin Niyou would naturally feel the oppression of this "danger".    

Han Chen laughed. Honestly speaking, he did not particularly wish for Xue Xi to fight for the position of Holy Maiden of Kaihuang.    

In fact, Xue Xi herself also did not want to be some sort of Holy Maiden. The reason she acted this way, was all because of Han Chen. She only wanted to prove that Han Chen's woman was not a 'vase'.    

Although Han Chen never thought that Xue Xi could not compare to Xie Shuang, Qin Niyou and the others.    

However, what the two of them had said at the Star Shifting Pavilion that day had indeed provoked Xue Xi.    

"But Xue Xi has only been at the sacred door for less than a year. If she appears so quickly, wouldn't it arouse suspicion from the holy door?"    

Han Chen voiced out his doubts.    

"It can't be!" In the past, I only used less than nine months to master all of the Imperial Palace's rune. " Zhongli Yanchang casually said.    

"You!"    

The corner of Han Chen's eyes twitched, he was angry and found it funny, "You are the direct disciple of the Holy Sect's master, how many people in the world can be compared to you?"    

"Eh? Are you praising me? "    

"I'm serious!"    

"That's alright!" Maybe your little girlfriend is one of them! Her talent is indeed not bad. According to my previous calculations, she would need an entire day to undo the seal on the 'Memory Spirit Stone'. The result was beyond my expectations. She only used six hours to solve it. "    

Zhongli Yanchang's voice contained a rare hint of praise.    

"Is that so?" Han Chen answered half-confidently.    

"Even if you can't deceive those old fellows from the Saintess Sect, you can just let her hand over that broken stone." According to what you said before, that stone was picked up somewhere during the Hundred Year Grand Ceremony, and no one would doubt it. After all, there are so many experts who have fallen in that place.    

Han Chen nodded his head, this was indeed a viable option.    

Immediately, Han Chen's mood could not help but lighten quite a bit.    

With only 40 more days left, it all depended on Xue Xi's talent. It was unknown how far she would be able to progress.    

"Oh right, Senior Yan Chang, why are you helping Xue Xi?" Han Chen asked.    

"Just treat it as doing a good deed!"    

"Hur hur, alright! I will remember this kindness in my heart. "    

Tch, don't you owe me a lot? Let me tell you, you might not even be able to repay it in your entire life. "    

"Then I'll repay it for the rest of my life."    

"F * ck off, who's willing to stay together with you forever?"    

Time flew by quickly, and the date of the new Holy Maiden of Kaihuang's election drew closer and closer.    

From top to bottom, the Holy Gate had already become chaotic.    

These days, no matter where he went, he would be able to hear the conversation regarding this matter.    

And Xie Shuang, Qin Niyou, these two famous geniuses of the Mighty Emperor Hall, had also once become the object of controversy in the mouths of the people.    

However, during this period.    

Xue Xi still went to the Star Shifting Pavilion all day, and sometimes stayed there for a few days.    

Ever since Han Chen had helped Xue Xi grasp the secrets of the Emperor Seal through the "Soul Transmission Technique", Xue Xi's comprehension and usage of the Emperor Seal had increased by leaps and bounds.    

But to what extent?    

Han Chen and Bai Muxuan, however, were also unclear about what had happened.    

In next to no time, the two months had finally come to an end.    

The date for the new Holy Maiden of Kaihuang election arrived as promised.    

Mizar Peak!    

As the main peak of the Imperial Palace, its aura was majestic and the scene mighty, it was not one bit inferior to the Merak Peak.    

Directly north of the Mt. Kaifeng stood a vast and glorious ancient palace with a majestic aura.    

The palace was located in the north, facing south. On both sides of the palace, rows upon rows of buildings were constructed. It was a grand and imposing secondary hall.    

As for the imperial palace, it was the largest of the many buildings. Its aura shook the heavens, and it was as if it were a god that stood tall and unyielding.    

Directly in front of the Emperor's Audience Hall was a vast dao plaza.    

The square was large enough to accommodate over a hundred thousand people.    

All sorts of grand and imposing buildings were built on this plaza.    

Arch bridges, high platforms, divine towers, etc. all added a unique flavor to the Emperor Opening Hall. In the central area, there was a dao platform that took up more than half of the plaza. Around the dao platform, there were many 50-meter wide arched bridges.    

At the bottom of the bridge, the clear water in the pool was exuding a dense spiritual energy.    

In the water, there were lotus flowers in full bloom. Spirit fishes swam about, giving off an extraordinary and auspicious feeling.    

At this moment, the disciples of the various Temples were constantly walking through the bridge, towards the dao platform in the center area.    

The crowd continued to gather around him in a continuous stream.    

"Finally, this day has come."    

"I've been so worried these past two months."    

"Why are you in such a hurry? The Holy Maiden of Kaihuang's election has nothing to do with you. "    

"Look at what you just said, there's nothing wrong. It's unknown if it's because you're yelling 'Senior Sister Xie Shuang is the best, Senior Sister Xie Shuang is the strongest' everyday. Senior Sister Xie Shuang doesn't even know you!"    

"F * ck your sister-in-law! Didn't you say that you were always talking about 'Senior Nidan'?"    

The opening of the Emperor's Peak caused the voices of the people to boil, and the atmosphere was grand and grand.    

Countless talented experts from the Sacred Gate had come here early, and compared to the Templar's assessment that was held three months ago, the scene here could be said to be completely incomparable.    

Han Chen, Xue Xi, and Bai Muxuan were walking on the bridge together.    

Beside the three of them, Xun Ke, Li Mao, Xie Qufeng, Xie Wuchang and the others followed.    

"Senior Brother Han Chen, are you optimistic about Senior Sister Xie Shuang or Senior Sister Qin Niyou?"    

Xun Ke laughed and casually asked.    

Han Chen raised his eyebrows, laughed, and did not answer the other party's question. He looked at Xue Xi beside his. Compared to two months ago, there was an indescribable change in Xue Xi's demeanor, which was quiet mixed with a bit of queen like elegance.    

Receiving the questioning from Han Chen's eyes, Xue Xi slightly raised his beautiful eyes, but also gave a shallow smile. His eyes were like stars, and his teeth were like the bright moon. Her moving smile was fresh and enchanting.    

"Are you feeling any pressure?" Han Chen said.    

Xue Xi shook her head, saying that she did not, but a faint sense of worry could be seen in her eyes.    

One had to know, her opponents were Xie Shuang, who was ranked fourth in Templar, and Qin Niyou, who was ranked sixth.    

This was simply too difficult for Xue Xi, who had just entered the holy door for a year.    

Han Chen gently held the other party's jade hands and encouraged her, "Don't treat this as a competition, just treat it as joining in the fun. It's fine if you participate.    

"En!"    

Xue Xi obediently nodded her head, a resolute light surging through her gentle eyes.
