I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

Xuantian Sect, Xiaoyao Peak.

Half a month has passed since the Battle of Baidi City, and the Northern Region can be said to be peaceful and prosperous.

The ancient tribes slaughtered the population of the Northern Region, reducing it by one-third, and many long-established forces were also destroyed.

With the revival of heaven and earth, everywhere is a blessed land, full of rare and precious materials.

The human race, fighting side by side, ushered in an unprecedented period of harmony.

The Xuantian Alliance rewarded those who had contributed to the cause, establishing a new order and power.

It is worth mentioning that the Jiang family was not very enthusiastic about migrating to the Central Region.

Because the Northern Region is now no worse than the Central Region, and has even more opportunities.

Finally, the First Ancestor led his branch to Xingheng Mountain in the Central Region, intending to occupy the area first and then discuss other matters.

On this day, the sky above the inner domain of the Xuantian Sect suddenly changed.

The once clear blue sky was suddenly covered by layers of dark clouds.

The dark clouds seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, carrying an oppressive and suffocating feeling, as if the entire world had become a giant furnace about to erupt.

Just as everyone looked up in astonishment, a message spread to every corner of the sect.

The Xuan Tian Sect Leader is finally about to undergo his tribulation!

In an instant, everyone put down what they were doing and watched from a distance.

Within the tribulation clouds, lightning flashed, like ferocious silver snakes weaving and slithering through them, and from time to time, deep rumbling sounds emanated, as if they were roars from the heavens above.

This is King Cheng's tribulation of lightning, and it is extraordinary.

The figure of Liang Mingxi, the leader of Xuantian Sect, slowly emerged, his elegance unparalleled, as upright as a pine tree.

His face was calm and resolute, and the aura emanating from him clearly revealed his profound cultivation.

Shen Ming was a little nervous. The tribulation lightning was the natural enemy of every cultivator, and there was a risk of failure. No one could help him.

Liang Mingxi raised her head slightly, looking at the imminent tribulation clouds, her eyes showing no fear.

Suddenly, a bolt of purple lightning as thick as a bucket struck down towards Liang Mingxi like a blade that split the heavens and the earth, its dazzling light instantly illuminating the inner domain.

A layer of pale golden sword light suddenly appeared in front of Liang Mingxi. The sword light seemed thin, but it contained powerful spiritual energy fluctuations.

The purple lightning struck the sword light fiercely, bursting forth with dazzling light. The powerful impact caused ripples to spread through the surrounding air.

Immediately afterwards, the second, the third... one after another, bolts of lightning struck down, each carrying a world-destroying power.

Liang Mingxi remained calm, using his exquisite swordsmanship and profound magical power to deal with wave after wave of attacks.

Finally, under everyone's anxious gaze, the last lightning bolt struck, colliding with the spiritual power released by Liang Mingxi to create the most dazzling light, and then everything returned to calm.

The clouds of calamity slowly dissipated, and sunlight once again shone on the back mountain. Liang Mingxi exuded an even more magnificent and powerful aura.

A new king is born!

In an instant, the entire Xuantian Sect erupted in thunderous cheers, with disciples shouting excitedly.

Their Xuantian Sect possesses two kings, something they never dared to believe in their wildest dreams before.

“Your world is truly extraordinary, or are you simply different from everyone else? If he were in the Upper Realm, his achievements would be even more remarkable,” Jian Li said.

“That kind of thinking is wrong. No matter where we are, we must do our best,” Shen Ming said.

This is the lesson he learned after our last conversation.

Beings in the lower realm are inferior to beings in the upper realm from birth.

It is indeed unfair and infuriating, but it is not something an individual can control.

What we need to do is focus on controlling the present moment.

Have the confidence to become a king in the lower realm and the determination to dominate a region in the upper realm.

"..."

Jian Li didn't know what to say, but she hoped that Shen Ming could maintain this mindset even after witnessing the gap between himself and the cultivators of the Upper Realm in the Endless Divine Domain.

"Ancient Venerable! Come and fight!"

Suddenly, Liang Mingxi looked towards the direction of Baidi City and shouted loudly.

He was highly motivated and resolute in his beliefs.

"..."

The Xuan Tian Sect fell silent. After realizing what had happened, they couldn't help but chuckle.

As soon as they took to the sky, Xuan Yuan, who was about to offer his congratulations, suddenly looked embarrassed.

Liang Mingxi was unaware of the destruction of the ancient clans; he only knew that he was the leader of the Xuantian Alliance.

With the persistence of the Xuan Tian Alliance, he finally reached the King level.

He had to repay the Northern Region.

Ok?

Soon, Liang Mingxi noticed that something was off about the atmosphere at Xuantian Sect.

The atmosphere was joyful and peaceful, and the protective mountain formations had all been deactivated, as if we had returned to the time before the great battle.

"Sect Leader, the ancient clans have been wiped out." Xuan Yuan stepped forward, his face showing reluctance. He knew that the Sect Leader disliked crowds and being the center of attention.

Liang Mingxi was taken aback. After hearing the whole story from Xuan Yuan, he panicked.

His voice came from the Xuantian Sect and traveled all the way to Baidi City.

"Ancient Venerable! Come and fight!"

Liang Mingxi could imagine that all sides could hear his high-spirited shouts.

He was bewildered in the wind, his toes clenched tightly together.

Then, he came to Xiaoyao Peak, his eyes filled with resentment.

Shen Ming pressed his thumb and forefinger to his mouth and said in a muffled voice, "Sect Leader, I was just thinking of something funny, not laughing at you."

"Laugh if you want to," Liang Mingxi said helplessly.

Hahahahaha!

Shen Ming laughed heartily, in a great mood.

"You're not really laughing!" Liang Mingxi thought that if he weren't outmatched, he would punish Gao in the name of the sect leader.

A few seconds later, he was infected by Shen Ming's laughter and laughed out loud as well.

“You always surprise me. I originally just hoped you could reach the Dominator Realm,” Liang Mingxi said.

In his plan, after becoming a king, he would burn his own essence and blood to give the ancient venerable one a few more years to buy the Northern Region a few more years and pass on the hope to Shen Ming.

Now it's all good, there's no need for that, and I don't have to say what's on my mind, lest people say I'm deliberately being sentimental.

"Now that the sect leader has successfully emerged from seclusion, I am relieved," Shen Ming said.

"Where are you going? Back to Eternal Academy?"

"No, the outer battlefields don't welcome me now. I'm going to the Endless Divine Realm."

"The Endless Divine Realm?"

Liang Mingxi frowned, clearly having never heard of it.

Shen Ming recounted what he knew about the Endless Divine Realm.

"There are such magical places? Staying at home, no, staying at home, one's spirit can enter the divine realm to compete with humans, and travel to the heavens?"

Liang Mingxi's eyes lit up as she listened, her face full of longing.

Shen Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked Jian Li if the sect leader could go along.

“It’s possible, but entering the outer battlefield from the lower realm is uncertain, so you should scout ahead yourself,” Jian Li said.

Before Shen Ming could explain, Liang Mingxi said, "Your spiritual body entered the Endless Divine Realm, but your physical body is still on Xiaoyao Peak? Well, then it's the same old rule: you announce to the outside world that you're in seclusion, and I'll guard the Xuantian Sect to ensure that no one can disturb you."

Once he calmed down, all he could think about was that Shen Ming's physical body needed protection.

He needs to ensure that Xuantian Sect is the safest place.

Because he is the leader of the Xuantian Sect.
