Chapter 229 Little Soul, do you want to advance to Dou Di?
The Soul Emperor's pupils dilated to the extreme, and he even forgot to breathe.
The Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Palace requires eight pieces of ancient jade to open, but this being before us revealed it to everyone with just a flick of his finger!
The plain was so vast that the aura of a Dou Di permeating the heavens and earth was so heavy that even his Emperor Realm soul trembled.
Even with the cultivation level of an Emperor Realm soul, one cannot expand a thousand feet in this vast world.
Even if he flew at full speed with all his might, he might not be able to cross half the territory within ten minutes.
This isn't some kind of "cave dwelling"! It's clearly a real world! A world so vast it rivals the entire Soul Realm!
Although a Battle Saint can create small worlds, most of those worlds are only the size of a town, and they rely on their own battle qi to sustain them like a candle flickering in the wind.
But the ancient imperial palace before us has mountains and rivers, follows the rules of heaven and earth, and is even tens of thousands of miles in size.
This is the true power of a Battle Emperor!
"Using an entire realm as one's residence—is this the vision of a Dou Di?" Yao Lao couldn't help but exclaim in disbelief, his pupils filled with shock. He had imagined the appearance of the ancient emperor's cave countless times, but he never thought that he would see it in such a mind-blowing way.
The Soul Emperor, however, stared intently at the ancient stone palace in the center of the plain, the vast plaza in front of the palace, and rows of stone pillars that were tens of miles high.
It's obvious without even thinking that the stone hall contains the legacy left behind by the ancient emperor Tuoshe.
That's the legacy of a Dou Di! It's an opportunity that every powerful figure on the entire Dou Qi Continent dreams of!
Looking at the stone palace in the distance, even in his desperate situation, the Soul Emperor couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.
However, they dared not act rashly.
Just when everyone thought Xu Qing was about to enter the ancient emperor's palace, an even more shocking scene unfolded.
Xu Qing raised his right hand and slowly extended his palm into the void.
At the same time, a fragrance emanated from the void, and everyone heard waves of Buddhist chants filling the ten directions of heaven and earth.
Xu Qing before them seemed to have transformed into a Buddha, his form containing the universe, and his palms becoming incredibly wide, the world within them seemingly containing the vast universe.
In the blink of an eye, this ordinary palm began to expand, from the size of an ordinary person to the size of the sky in the Soul Realm, and then to the size of a star.
In the end, the lines on his palms resembled flowing stars, and his little finger alone was larger than the entire Soul Realm.
This is precisely the Tathagata's Palm.
This palm easily covered the entire ancient imperial palace world.
Before it, that vast world, as expansive as the Soul Realm, seemed as insignificant as a small pebble!
"No—it's impossible! How could anyone possess such power?!"
The Soul Emperor's heart suddenly stopped, and he could only manage a sound from his throat, but the shock he felt was too great to even utter a cry.
Even if a Dou Di (Battle Emperor) can create a world, no matter how powerful their Dou Di avatar is, it will only be ten thousand feet tall.
Where does such a power to view the world as mere dust come from?
The next second, Xu Qing gently clenched his fist, and then his right hand emerged from the void.
He actually pulled that vast and boundless ancient imperial palace world out of the void as if it were a toy.
Such a massive commotion is almost enough to destroy a world.
However, not a single trace of energy dissipated from the ancient emperor's cave, and the entire world was firmly locked in place by Xu Qing's palm.
The torn void began to close, and Xu Qing slowly opened his palm, then smiled:
"Alright, now we don't need to look for that so-called Tuoshe Ancient Jade."
As Xu Qing smiled, everyone saw an incredibly tiny plain world appear in his palm.
As the ancient emperor's cave world appeared in Xu Qing's palm, everyone present felt a deathly silence; for a moment, even their heartbeats stopped.
At this moment, Xu Qing behaved in an unremarkable manner, just like an ordinary young man.
But this hand in front of me can grasp the world as if it were a toy.
This is beyond their understanding of power.
The old man's sea of consciousness was blank, and even his Emperor-level soul was trembling.
The image of someone holding the sun and moon in their hands and plucking stars from the sky is truly breathtaking.
The old doctor and the Heavenly Emperor of Souls stood there dumbfounded.
Especially the Soul Emperor.
He no longer knows what he has been doing with his life.
He had planned his entire life to seize the Tuoshe Ancient Jade, but the mysterious powerhouse before him had no need for such a thing at all.
The Soul Emperor suddenly felt like a joke. His body swayed, and then he laughed, a laugh that was more like crying.
He spent his entire life scheming for the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor's Palace, plotting for the Tuoshe Ancient Jade of the other races.
But in front of Xu Qing, all his efforts seemed like a joke.
The Dou Di inheritance he sought, the power of the Dou Di that he revered, were utterly insignificant in the eyes of this being.
In the midst of this deathly silence, Xu Qing's gaze fell upon Soul Emperor, a playful smile curving his lips: "Little Soul, you seem quite eager to advance to Dou Di?"
"I can give you the inheritance from this ancient emperor's cave."
The words, though seemingly ordinary, struck the Soul Emperor like a thunderclap.
He looked up abruptly, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Before the Soul Emperor could react, the Medicine Elder suddenly spoke.
"You mustn't, Master!"
The old apothecary took a step forward abruptly, his voice trembling, but he still stared intently at the Soul Emperor, his voice filled with gritted teeth:
"To advance to the Dou Di realm, the Soul Emperor slaughtered countless lives. If he were to obtain the ancient emperor's inheritance, the entire Dou Qi Continent would become a hellish inferno! Such a villain must not be given the chance to advance!"
Although Yao Lao knew that Xu Qing's power far exceeded his own, he still forced himself to speak up, thinking of the souls harmed by the Soul Clan.
Even if it angers the Pavilion Master of the Heavens Pavilion, he cannot allow the Soul Emperor to become a Battle Emperor.
"presumptuous!"
The Soul Emperor abruptly turned his head. Just moments before, he had been terrified of the Medicine Elder, but now he straightened his back and declared righteously:
"With the Pavilion Master here, how dare you, a mere mortal, offer your opinion!"
After he finished speaking, he slammed his knees heavily on the ground, pressed his forehead against the cold stone surface, and kowtowed repeatedly to Xu Qing, his voice full of flattery and ingratiation.
"Lord Pavilion Master, if you can help me advance to the Dou Di realm, I am willing to go through fire and water, even die, for you!"
After he finished speaking, he raised his head, his eyes gleaming with greed as he stared intently at the ancient imperial palace world in Xu Qing's palm.
Seeing their reactions, Xu Qing smiled faintly, then looked at the Soul Emperor and said, "Alright, of course I agree to let you advance to the Dou Di realm."
"boom!"
Upon hearing this, the Soul Emperor suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with wild joy.
The mysterious and powerful figure before them actually agreed.
The path to becoming a Dou Di, which he had always dreamed of, opened up in such an unexpected way!
Unlike the excited Soul Emperor, Yao Lao stood frozen in place, looking at Xu Qing's calm profile, feeling a pang of pain in his heart.
So the Pavilion Master spared the Soul Clan not to punish them, but to give the Soul Emperor a chance to rise to power. So, is the grudge of those billions of wronged souls just going to be left like this?
His fists were clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, but he didn't dare utter a single word in rebuttal.
Just as the Soul Emperor was overjoyed to the extreme, and even his heartbeat began to become erratic, Xu Qing's voice rang out again: "However, before you ascend to the highest level, I have a small request."
"Whatever the request, I will gladly die for it!" Soul Emperor replied without hesitation, his eyes brimming with desire.
"As long as I can advance to the Dou Di realm, whatever your requirements are, Pavilion Master, I will do them!"
"Yes, that's good. I'm relieved to hear that."
Hearing this, Xu Qing nodded.
