Bank of the Universe Novel - Chapter 170
Chapter 170: How Can There Be Someone Who Is Crown Prince For 9,000 Years?
On the Legacy Hall mountain peak, the battle between Li Xiandao and the priest continued.
The priest’s Dao was just too deep such that Li Xiandao was still unable to fully understand him even when he tried for so long.
He definitely believed that the priest came from the Legend Era, unlike War God Zhao Wuji and Sword God whom he understood and saw through right away.
Li Xiandao was able to use the full strength of Slaying the Heavens in just one strike. There was less of the theatrics and more practicality. The nine swords all stabbed toward one area and even if one’s defense was strong, one would still be unable to block nine swords.
But even if Li Xiandao comprehended the technique to such an extent, he still wasn’t the match of the priest.
Li Xiandao’s Slaying the Heavens could be used in an instant, but it was shattered by the priest at the same time.
After the burly priest shattered the sword that Li Xiandao had cultivated, he dispersed all his strength and turned back into that thin old man.
“The Dao from that fist is enough for you to comprehend for three days. Your talent is just too terrifying. You only need three days to comprehend something I took 300 years to comprehend. Go back and rest and come back next time.” The priest waved his hand and chased Li Xiandao away.
Li Xiandao was a little reluctant. Their battle was like a whale swimming in the ocean. He was unrestrained and had nothing to worry about. He was able to absorb everything that he wanted.
Li Xiandao didn’t want to stop.
If he was able to absorb for a full 10 days and nights, Li Xiandao dared to ensure that there would be little to no one in Eternal Land that could defeat him.
Unlike now, when he was stuck at a single point which made him feel really uncomfortable.
Exhaustion appeared on the priest’s face. Since he was just a remnant piece of a soul, Li Xiandao could only leave.
“Goodbye priest.” Li Xiandao retreated slowly.
The priest looked on as Li Xiandao left. After ensuring that Li Xiandao was gone, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Overpowered, overpowered!” The priest cursed.
“It took me 300 years to comprehend that part of the Dao and he did it in 30 minutes. Are the heavens even fair?” The priest was really jealous.
If he didn’t stop just now, then Li Xiandao could really continue to absorb all his knowledge. He would be able to suck him dry.
That was just too terrifying!
“Haiz, this world belongs to the youth. As for us, we should just lay quietly in our graves.” The priest sighed and just stumbled back into his tomb.
….
Li Xiandao walked out of the Legacy Hall and back into his room.
True Qi swelled in his body like he was about to break through.
But Li Xiandao suppressed it and didn’t let himself break through.
“I am still accumulating. Now isn’t the time to break through.” Li Xiandao muttered.
When one breaks through, one had to do so all at once. Breaking through bit by bit was like squeezing toothpaste and Li Xiandao really didn’t like that.
Thus, he suppressed that feeling.
“Seven.” Li Xiandao shouted. He didn’t see her around so he missed her.
Li Xiandao was extremely happy when he kissed her on the forehead but he was also afraid that she would be unhappy.
Luckily, she didn’t. The only thing was that she became cold and stopped caring about him.
Li Xiandao could only head out helplessly when he didn’t get a reply to search for Seven.
Seven lived in another corner of the peak. It was a small grass patch where there was a single flower.
It was just sprouting!
Li Xiandao walked over and saw that Seven was watering it. He asked, “What flower is this?”
“Dog’s tail grass!” Seven said calmly.
Li Xiandao didn’t mind her cold expression and smiled. “Why is there only one such flower?”
Seven looked at Li Xiandao and said helplessly, “When the Bank of the Universe was sealed, my garden was sealed too. All the things that I planted were all gone.”
Li Xiandao was stunned. He said, “Then, let me help you redeem them.”
Seven shook her head and said, “It is extremely expensive. Out of the flowers that I planted, even the weakest one can draw numerous experts from the Nine Skies to fight for them. You are temporarily unable to redeem it.”
Li Xiandao didn’t think that way and asked, “What is the price? Tell me about it.”
“God Spirit Meridian, 300 of them!” Seven said helplessly.
“Let’s just shelve it. Even if we had 300 God Spirit Meridians we would need to redeem the other mountains.” Seven explained. She didn’t want Li Xiandao to work hard towards this matter.
The garden wasn’t as important as the other mountains.
Legacy Hall didn’t say anything and just changed the topic, “Since we unsealed the Legacy Hall, then do we have 100 more watches?”
Seven nodded, “You want to cast them out?”
“Right, we also need new guests and new gains to strengthen the Bank of the Universe.” Li Xiandao nodded his head.
Li Xiandao trusted Seven and she was entrusted with managing all the watches.
Apart from maintaining the big picture, Seven was in charge of everything else. Seven was the helper that Li Xiandao couldn’t allow to have leave his side.
“Okay, I shall do that right away.” Seven nodded.
“Then, you continue to tidy your garden. I shall go cultivate.” Li Xiandao turned around and left.
Seven continued to stare at the garden. The huge garden was so empty, so she would just plant some normal flowers.
Li Xiandao saw how she was staring at it after he turned a corner. He had an idea and maybe he could give her a surprise.
But he had to plan for this matter.
….
Along with the Bank of the Universe casting out 100 watches, a huge storm was rising in Eternal Land.
God Capital!
This was the capital of the Feather Transformation God Dynasty. It was huge and spanned two rivers, raising tens of millions of people.
God Capital was huge but it wasn’t easy to live here!
Many civilians entered and left God Capital. Their lives were extremely busy, and only then were they able to barely survive.
Within the God Capital, there was an unimaginable number of aristocratic families.
One God Capital, 100,000 families!
Someone said that there were a total of 100,000 families here.
100,000 of them would add up to a few million people.
The biggest was the royal family!
The Feather Transformation God Dynasty royal family were the ones in full control of God Capital.
The current emperor was called Emperor Tianqi. Since he took to the throne, he worked hard and had many successes. After 10,000 years he managed the Feather Transformation God Dynasty really well and all its people were able to have decent lives.
This was a huge contribution.
But someone was unhappy!
In the Crown Prince’s manor, an invisible seal spread about which no one could see.
“This is insane. I really want to carry my sword to charge into the palace and ask that old man whether or not he wants me to die like this?” The young man in a robe hollered in rage.
“How many crown princes will there be in 9,000 years?”
“I am already the fourth one. The first one died from old age, the second was chased out, and the third gave up and decided to become a lord. Am I going to be the same?” The Crown Prince carried his sword and paced back and forth in a rage.
