Chapter 1835 – Igniting Incense

At the Imperial Capital Xianyang in the other Great Qin.

The sun in the sky suddenly plunged into darkness. Countless people raised their heads and their eyes widened with shock as they witnessed this scene. Then, in the pitch-black darkness, a light spot suddenly appeared. One, two, three…then, there were more and more and they appeared at a faster speed. It was as if sun, moon, yin and yang had been reversed and a sea of stars had been moved to this place.

Then, as if connected by an invisible thread, the sea of stars converged to form a bright galaxy. As they sat in the dark sky, the light that they emitted was brilliant, making it look like it was daytime.

Those citizens who were bathed in this light instantly felt at ease. It was almost as if this sea of stars was their pillar of support, a towering mountain that could protect them from anything!

Imperial Palace.

Emperor Qin opened his eyes and looked at the sea of stars in the night sky. He appeared shaken and he stuttered, “National Advisor, this…this is…”

The young Chen She had now become a middle-aged man with a calm and composed demeanor. He looked at the sea of stars and he was also slightly taken aback. He bowed and said, “Congratulations, Your Majesty, it is an auspicious sign for our Great Qin!” He raised his arm, pointed at the skies, and said, “That master…has broken through.”

Back then, before Grandmaster left, he had told Chen She some things. National Advisor Chen She knew from a long time ago that the place outside the Qin Empire was the real world. And from what Grandmaster told him, that master was the future of the Qin Empire. If that master got stronger, then so would the Qin Empire. All of their lives depended on this master alone.

A complicated look flashed past Emperor Qin’s eyes. He was the ruler of this Great Qin Empire. In this world, he held the highest authority and the highest status. However, like the national advisor said, he was not the true ruler of Great Qin. This empire and this world had another owner from the very beginning, and he was more like a custodian. He never held true power.

Suddenly, a screech could be heard. It was the guardian divine beast, the phoenix. It resurrected from its stone state and soared towards the sky. It continued screeching, full of happiness and delight. As the Qin Empire’s guardian divine beast, chicken overlord could clearly feel Qin Yu’s majestic and powerful aura, which seemed to be controlling the sea of stars in the sky. With just a thought, Qin Yu could reverse yin and yang.

Chicken overlord was no longer sure exactly how powerful Qin Yu was, but unquestionably, as one of Qin Yu’s first lackeys, he would become stronger together with Qin Yu. In the future, who would dare to go against him? They would all be suppressed!

As the Divine Nation’s Incense Spirit, Qin Y?’s figure appeared on top of the phoenix. He sat cross-legged and looked down on Xianyang before looking up at the sea of stars again. Then, he sighed softly. The speed at which Qin Yu was advancing was simply terrifying. Other people’s Great Dao journeys were full of obstacles. Usually, the more they advanced, the harder it would be to break through. But for Qin Yu, it was like he had just spread his wings as he flew forward rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he was nearing the peak.

Qin Y?, who was now sitting in the Imperial Palace, felt the indignance in his heart clearly. To be more accurate, he felt this a long time ago. He had to admit that he once thought about collaborating with the other Emperor Qin. There was even a chance that they would succeed in putting Qin Yu down.

Of course, he only had all these thoughts in the past. He did not harbor such thoughts anymore…it was because ever since Qin Yu had ignited his incense power, he was now an extremely powerful individual who walked on the path of Incense Great Dao. Other than the other Emperor Qin, Qin Yu was the second most powerful person in the world.

“Qin Yu, who exactly are you?” Incense Spirit Qin Y? mumbled to himself.

Phoenix screeched and no one understood what it was saying, other than Qin Y?. It was saying, “My master is of course the most awesome and powerful ass-kicker in this world!”

Even though his words were quite rude, Qin Yu was quite deserving of these compliments.

Qin Y? suddenly had a feeling that his name was also his destiny. After all, as the Divine Nation’s Incense Spirit, when Qin Yu became more powerful, he would also increase in strength to a point that he had never imagined before.

When he thought of this, Qin Y? raised his hand and grabbed forward. The roar of a dragon immediately rang out in the air. All of Great Qin Empire’s fortune accumulated in front of him, instantly becoming an enormous dragon. It flew up into the sky, and as it intertwined with the phoenix, countless citizens of the Qin Empire widened their eyes which were now filled with awe.

In the Imperial Palace, Emperor Qin’s body stiffened slightly and his face went a little pale as he slowly lowered his head.

National Advisor Chen She bowed and reminded him, “Your Majesty, no matter what kind of thoughts you had before, I hope that you will get rid of them entirely.”

Emperor Qin took a deep breath and said, “I have taken National Advisor’s words to heart.”

……

Desolate Area’s Great Qin Empire!

Now, apart from the southwest fragmented area, the whole world was under Great Qin’s rule. When Qin Y? summoned the enormous dragon by mobilizing his national fortune, Xianyang City shook.

Roar –

Roar –

The illusion of nine enormous dragons immediately appeared above Xianyang City and they roared, releasing murderous intent in all directions. Everyone’s eyes widened as they witnessed this scene. Now that the world was unified and His Majesty was the ruler of the Desolate Area, who would dare to offend him? Who was qualified enough to cause the Great Qin Empire’s fortune to waver and move into a defensive position?

Imperial Palace.

Whoosh –

Emperor Qin opened his eyes and a brilliance shone in both of them, as if they were piercing through time and space and looking somewhere far away. He was looking at the other side of the Eternal Sea, where the human cultivation system ruled over a vast territory.

Qin Yu had broken through!

As the only person in this world who had walked on the path of Incense Great Dao, Emperor Qin had a strong intuition now. However, very quickly, his face returned to calm and the brilliance in his eyes disappeared. Now, there was only indifference in his eyes.

Emperor Qin had long expected that something like this would happen. Only after Qin Yu ignited his Incense Great Dao could he be qualified enough to fight against Emperor Qin. But that was all there was to it. Emperor Qin was still the emperor, the ruler of the Desolate World – an immortal and invincible person!

Qin Yu was destined to only be a training dummy for Emperor Qin. Emperor Qin had a very strong intuition that as long as he killed Qin Yu, he would be able to uncover the things that were troubling him all along – who exactly was Qin Yu? What kinds of secrets was Qin Yu hiding?

Emperor Qin had been waiting for this day for too long – so long that he was not afraid at all of this upcoming battle. There was only deep anticipation and excitement!

……

At the seventh White Jade Capital.

A Great Sun Illusion appeared above Qin Yu’s head in the great hall, suppressing any kind of aura fluctuation.

A Heaven Crossing Great Dao illusion that soared into the skies with an incomparably dazzling light should have appeared at this moment. However, under the Great Sun Illusion, it only curled up like a withered willow branch.

It looked sad and pathetic.

This made Qin Yu open his eyes and he could not help but sigh, “I’ve managed to ignite my Incense Great Dao, which now makes me qualified enough to fight against the nine Dao Masters. Yet, there is no celebration to this. I can not help feeling downcast.”

The Great Sun Illusion trembled a little bit as the little blue lamp’s voice rang out from within, “If you want to, I can release all of the restraints and help your Incense Great Dao reach to the heavens. Even people from the other side of the Eternal Sea in the Desolate World will be able to see it clearly; what do you think?”

“Cough!” Qin Yu rubbed his chin and said, “I have broken through today to become a powerful cultivator of Incense Great Dao. I can’t show it off to people, but can’t you let me say a few words? Little blue lamp, you’re pretty insensitive.”

“Hmph!” The little blue lamp scoffed, “If you have time to chat, why don’t you take this time to familiarize yourself with your newfound power. The White Jade Capitals’ nine Dao Masters have a limit to their patience. If you continue to drag this out, they will fall out with you.”

Qin Yu nodded, “Got it.”

Eight full months had passed since the nine White Jade Capitals came together to revitalize the Ninerealms. In these eight months, the amount of energy that had gone into this project was simply unimaginable. Even if these nine White Jade Capitals were forcefully suppressing their own worlds, the rapid expenditure of energy in such a short period of time had come at the expense of their wealth of savings as well.

The nine Dao Masters were anxious. If it were not for the fact that Qin Yu had handed over the World Heart last time in exchange for their trust, the nine Dao Masters would have gone and asked him for answers a long time ago. However, even though they trusted Qin Yu, after waiting for eight months, they could not wait anymore.

Qin Yu closed his eyes and with a single thought, the pathetic Great Dao illusion instantly disappeared. He started to carefully examine the power he possessed right now.

The nature of an ignited Incense Great Dao was that it was constantly in a burning state. This in itself would consume some power of faith, so after igniting his Great Dao, it did not mean that he no longer needed to gain the faith of his people. On the contrary, he needed to accumulate more of it. Otherwise, if his power of faith ran out, he would not only become weaker, his Incense Flame might even be extinguished.

Of course, you reap what you sow. As the Incense Flame burned, Qin Yu’s Great Dao could be continuously tempered. This would help him to become stronger and more stable.

Perhaps because he had just ignited his Incense Great Dao that at this moment, Qin Yu could clearly feel his own Great Dao constantly getting stronger with every second, and at an astonishing speed!

Apart from this, there was also an incomparably strong power that came from burning the power of faith, and this power was only effective when applied to Qin Yu, which worked as an amplifier to boost his current strength.

By burning the power of faith, every strand of power released by Qin Yu could be amplified by ten or even a hundred times. How much his power was amplified depended on his proficiency at controlling this mechanism as well as how much power he was able to abruptly release at once. One strand of power could be magnified ten times, and two strands of power could be magnified by another ten times. It was shockingly mighty and impressive!

With all these factors to consider, Qin Yu discovered something that made him frown…exactly how strong was Emperor Qin right now? It had been many, many years since Emperor Qin had ignited his Incense Great Dao, and he would definitely be far superior to Qin Yu in terms of controlling the burning of the power of faith.

Under such circumstances, even if Qin Yu managed to successfully ignite his Incense Great Dao, what were his chances of winning if he really went against Emperor Qin? Suddenly, he felt slightly defeated.

“It’s true, whatever you are thinking of, but the gaps in power can be made up for. At least you are now in the same realm as Emperor Qin, and being in the same realm is the most important thing. Though you are slightly weaker in power, there are other ways to boost it.”

The little blue lamp’s voice suddenly rang out in Qin Yu’s mind.

Qin Yu frowned, “Are you trying to comfort me?”

“Yeah, just a bit.” The little blue lamp continued, “Everything I said is the truth. Perhaps there is still a large gap in power between you and Emperor Qin, but there are ways to make up for it. Furthermore, after igniting your Incense Great Dao, you have another game of chess to play…if you manage to win this game, all of your worries will be solved.”

Qin Yu suddenly understood that the little blue lamp must have known about these circumstances since a long time ago, therefore, he was trying to help Qin Yu scheme against the nine White Jade Capitals’ nine Dao Masters. The whole point was to help Qin Yu boost his power. Nine White Jade Capitals…Qin Yu was taking the long route in order to better prepare himself for the battle against Emperor Qin!

Three days later.

Qin Yu left the place he was staying at. When he arrived at the main hall, he looked at the nine Dao Masters whose faces were filled with anxiety and worry.

Due to excessive power consumption, the seventh White Jade Capital had to reveal itself. A forbidden invisible place now showed itself and those who could vaguely see it were mesmerized.

“Luo Guan, do you have any good news?” First Dao Master asked in a low voice.

Qin Yu bowed, “I’ve finished refining the last two World Hearts.” He raised his hand and the two World Hearts appeared in his hand.

In the great hall, delight formed on all of the Dao Masters’ faces.

Whoosh -

First Dao Master waved his sleeve and the two World Hearts flew towards the Dao Masters and stopped in front of them so that they could ensure there was nothing wrong with the World Hearts. Then, First Dao Master’s gaze swept over everyone and he said, “Everyone, the nine World Hearts have been assembled. We can distribute them now.”

“Okay!”

“Everyone, pick one!”

The nine Dao Masters reached out at the same time to take one World Heart for themselves and their smiles became even wider. However, very quickly, their smiles disappeared and they all looked at Qin Yu.

Fourth Dao Master asked him, “Luo Guan, how is the recovery of the Ninerealms? Our nine White Jade Capitals have contributed a lot of power towards it – when will it end?”

Qin Yu cupped his hands and said, “If Your Honor is willing, I can help all of you to condense World Origin using your World Hearts.”

Fourth Dao Master frowned in confusion, “What do you mean?”

Qin Yu replied, “It’s very simple.” He looked around and continued, “In these past eight months, the Ninerealms have basically undergone a full recovery already. World Origin can be forcefully condensed, but I cannot guarantee what the outcome will be.”

Fourth Dao Master frowned.

Qin Yu’s words were not hard to comprehend – you can choose to have the peach and eat it now, but the peach might not be fully ripe and therefore it might not taste very good.

How could this be tolerated!

Furthermore, Fourth Dao Master was not the only one who wanted to ‘eat the peach’ now.

Think about it – if he was the first one to get World Origin but the outcome was not very effective, he would not be able to evolve his Dao and reach the World realm…then if the other Dao Masters fused with World Origin later, he would become obsolete.

Of course, if he was courageous enough, he could also try to get ahead of the others and be the first to condense World Origin. Even if the outcome was undesirable, his cultivation level would still be greatly enhanced.

Before they fell out with each other, they would play a game of choosing…nonetheless, the possibility of this was very small and the rest of the Dao Masters were not foolish. They would not give anyone a chance now.

The great hall fell silent.

There was a choice to make now – should they eat the peach immediately, or starve for a little longer and wait for the peach to ripen?
