Spirit Vessel-Chapter 1137: Emperor Xuanyuan

The Myriad Race Conference has been around for a long time now. In the beginning, only the four great demon races along with the immemorial races were eligible to participate.

These strongest creatures gathered to discuss the future while vying for their own interest. A contest took place at the same time for them to gauge the opponents’ power.

The strong were respected and gained more benefits. The opposite happened to the losers. Thus, only the best representatives were sent to the conference. It was a matter of honor and pride as well.

Eventually, more races were eligible to enter since they grew stronger. The original participants finally made a rule to let everyone enter and start a new name for the conference - Myriad Race.

It would also be held every ten thousand years or so with a rotating host.

In reality, some of the original participants made this exception in order to satisfy their own pride. After all, few things were better than stomping on the weaker races. They could also blatantly recruit tributaries and followers through this display of superior force.

This was just a natural order - the weak had to rely on the strong in order to survive.

Why did humans form kingdoms and dynasties? Because they needed the protection of stronger cultivators. On a smaller scale, this also applied to family units and villages.

The world was cruel, hence the need for protection and shelter.

During Time Immemorial, humans were weak and had to serve other races in order to survive. They worshipped dragons, phoenixes, qilins, and many others as gods.

This all changed with the appearance of a particular human - Emperor Xuanyuan.

He appeared toward the end of Time Immemorial and managed to compete against the phoenix queens and ancestral dragons, eventually overcoming them.

His leadership started a golden age for humans, allowing them to escape from racial shackles.

His existence and accomplishments gave an easy answer to the biggest contributor to the human race.

Humans were sure that he was a grand saint by the end of Time Immemorial However, the demons disputed this.

In fact, some even questioned Immemorial Divine Phoenix being a grand saint. Thus, this wasn’t an insult in the slightest.

All in all, this didn’t diminish his status among the humans. Many claimed to be the descendants of Emperor Xuanyuan.

However, the emperor was enigmatic and elusive. Some historians didn’t think he had left a lineage or legacy behind.

Nonetheless, some believed that future humans were all descendants of Emperor Xuanyuan. After all, the race only became independent after his ascension.

“We are participants of the Myriad Race Conference thanks to Emperor Xuanyuan.” Ximen Chuixiao sat on top of the dragon and told stories regarding the conference while praising his biggest hero - Emperor Xuanyuan.

The dragon was as large as a red mountain, scaring all the other flying creatures along the way.

Feiyun didn’t care too much about the conference and listened quietly. His next destination was the location for the third portal - Battle Domain.

He was the current domain lord and wanted to expand his reach. Jin and his land in Crimson were too small.

This domain was enough to accommodate his current ambition, whether it be recruitment or building more shrines for Supreme.

Of course, truly taking control of this domain might require decades or even centuries. A domain was simply massive. This one was around the size of ten thousand Jin Dynasties.

Feiyun left Yao Ji as the acting domain lord for administration purposes. She was ambitious and gifted in this aspect. Moreover, she had finished the fifth ghost transformation and could kill paragons now.

This was not enough to maintain absolute safety but since it was within Sacred Territory, the royal clan would offer their support when necessary.

With the portal finished, Feiyun headed for Sacred Court. He wasn’t here to meet the new ruler but rather - Divine Guardian of the guardian tribe.

He found that their royal city has been rebuilt, looking more magnificent than before. He visited a palace meant for the guardian tribe.

He stood inside a great chamber with an avatar of the guardian.

“Battle Domain was given to you by Elder Lin, not an official decree. The lord can take it back.” The guardian still looked vigorous and robust despite his old age.

Feiyun remained calm, not afraid of this pseudo-saint at all.

“Have you forgotten what I’ve done for Sacred Court? There would be a different master here right now if it wasn’t for me.” Feiyun sat down on a jade seat, not caring for permission.

“You have taken a large sum out of the treasury, that was your payment.” The guardian said.

“They were used to activate the pseudo order to deal with Azure Lord. In fact, I had to add in my own.” Feiyun said.

“Fine, if you can block one of my avatar’s attacks, I will personally go ask the lord to give you Battle due to your contributions.” The guardian said.

Blocking one move meant earning one domain - this was a tempting offer.

Of course, its difficulty couldn’t be overstated since he was facing a pseudo-saint. Azure Lord’s avatar alone managed to rule Sacred Court for generations.

“If I can’t block it?” Feiyun became serious.

“If you can’t, then you are not qualified to rule a domain.”

Feiyun understood that this was a test.

“Very well, I accept your challenge.” Feiyun stood up and channeled his inner core, instantly entering his peak battle state.

“Sure, it’s a challenge…” The guardian didn’t know what to say. The little guy made it sound as if he was the challenger.

“Be careful now, those below my realm can’t understand how strong my avatar is. Don’t blame me for being too rough.” He said and activated a barrier around the palace.

Feiyun glanced at the thin barrier and knew he couldn’t break it even after going all out.
