Upon hearing the news that Li Qing had emerged from seclusion in the stone room, Marquis Golden Lion hurriedly rushed over and asked, “How was it? Did you get anything?”

After pondering for a moment, Li Qing said, “There are some gains. I can barely be considered to have learned a portion of the Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist.”

“What? You’re actually able to learn a portion of the Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist?” The Golden Lion Marquis was shocked.

“What, is this amazing? Could it be that none of you have comprehended a part of it?” Li Qing was puzzled.

“I wonder if you can display the Emperor’s Extreme Fist that you have learned?” The Golden Lion Marquis had a strange expression on his face.

Li Qing was puzzled in his heart, but now that he had said it, he could only nod his head and say, “Of course!”

He gently punched out, and a peerless power appeared. It was the fist intent of the Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist, causing the Marquis of Golden Lion to be dumbfounded.

“It really is the Emperor Extreme Peerless Fist! Although it is only a part of it, this kind of fist intent is the most authentic. I will definitely not admit my mistake!” Marquis Golden Lion said softly.

Li Qing had already tried his best to retain his strength, but he didn’t expect that it would still have such a great effect. He couldn’t help but ask, “This stone tablet was originally meant for us to comprehend the Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist. Since I have comprehended a portion of it, what’s so strange about it?”

The Marquis of Golden Lion shook his head, “That’s not the case. There is only one fist mark on these stone steles. There are no words or patterns on them. It is difficult to comprehend the Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist. Its main function is to raise our realm through the Great Dao Concept embodied in it.”

“Only Wei Longcheng can learn a portion of the Extreme Emperor Fist, or even enter the palace. As for the others, they are basically able to comprehend the Grand Dao Laws hidden within it, fuse them into their own martial arts, raise their cultivation realms, or even create a new martial art.”

“My father once comprehended the Tombstone of Meritorious Officials and created the Heavenly Divine Fist. His strength has greatly improved, but he was unable to enter the Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist.”

“That’s why!” Li Qing instantly understood that he had inadvertently displayed what Wei Longcheng had done back then.

He had already tried his best to hide his strength, but he didn’t expect that it would still exceed other people’s expectations. Actually, it makes sense to think about it. If you can comprehend the Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist with just a single fist mark, wouldn’t that be too easy?

This was the ultimate technique of the Extreme Emperor, unparalleled in the world, how could he learn it so easily?

Li Qing also relied on the Bodhi Pearl to barely comprehend some of the mysteries. Later on, he relied on the legacy left behind by the Polarity Emperor in the Mortal Emperor Seal to completely learn it.

No one else could have such an opportunity. This was why Wei Longcheng was so powerful. No wonder the Zhou Emperor wanted to take this person as his disciple.

“Since you have comprehended a portion of the Emperor’s Extreme Fist, wouldn’t it be possible for His Majesty to accept you as his personal disciple?” Marquis Golden Lion suddenly thought of this question.

“Isn’t this too far? I don’t even want to stay in the Central Region for long. After traveling for a while, I will return to seek revenge. How can I be a disciple of the Zhou Emperor?” Li Qing shook his head.

“Are you stupid? You’re willing to give up such a good thing. If you can become the personal disciple of the emperor last week, then wouldn’t revenge be a matter of minutes?” Marquis Golden Lion hurriedly said.

Li Qing’s heart skipped a beat. What he said really made sense. If he could become the personal disciple of the emperor last week, it would be like ascending to the heavens in a single step. Revenge would definitely be much easier.

However, after thinking about it carefully, he still refused, because there were too many secrets on his body. The Demon Ancestor’s inheritance was simply fatal, let alone other precious treasures.

“My current cultivation has already reached the tenth level of the Xiantian realm, and my path has already been settled. I’m afraid it’s hard for me to withstand the inheritance of the Zhou Emperor.”

The Golden Lion Marquis was speechless. “Do you know what His Majesty’s personal disciple means?”

Li Qing said, “Of course I know, but it is indeed inappropriate. Moreover, it is hard to say whether I can meet the requirements of the Zhou Emperor. Wei Longcheng is a young genius, and he is already extremely talented at such a young age. I’m not young anymore, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to enter the eyes of the Zhou Emperor.”

“Alright, everyone has their own aspirations, so I won’t try to persuade you any further.” Marquis Golden Lion shook his head and sighed.

…

After returning to Little Building by the lake, Li Qing temporarily stayed here. In any case, he wasn’t in a hurry to go anywhere else, so he decided to digest the fruits here and master the Imperial Extreme Peerless Fist.

Unknowingly, half a year passed like this. Li Qing and Liu Ke’er cultivated twice a day. The Yin Yang Profound Demon Grand Technique did not disappoint anyone, and their cultivation had made gratifying progress.

Originally, Liu Ke’er had just broken through to the eighth level of the Xiantian realm not long ago, but now it was already at the middle stage of the eighth level. Moreover, this dual cultivation had no negative effects. Her true essence was pure and rich, and she also had a high-grade Xiantian foundation. Her foundation was firmly established.

Li Qing also completely consolidated his cultivation to the Xiantian Great Perfection Stage, waiting for him to comprehend the unity of heaven and man. However, the difficulty of this trial was too great, and it was impossible for him to make a breakthrough in a short period of time.

Even if Li Qing possessed the Jade True Pill and the Good Fortune Fruit, it was not something that could be accomplished just by eating it. He had to have some enlightenment before he could maximize the effects.

However, he thought of another question. If he consumed the Jade True Pill and the Good Fortune Fruit, what would happen to Liu Ke’er?

He looked at the two precious items in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Eat or not?

“Forget it, I’ll leave it to Ke’er. I’m already at the peak of the Xiantian realm. I have plenty of time to comprehend the unity of heaven and man. There’s no need to be so anxious.”

“But Ke’er is different. Her cultivation is slower and her aptitude is not as outstanding as mine. When she reaches the Xiantian Great Perfection, it will probably be ten years later.”

“Perhaps I will have comprehended the unity of heaven and man by then. It would be a waste to eat it now.”

He quickly made up his mind to keep these two items and give them to Liu Ke’er in the future.

On this day, he was practicing his fist martial arts by the lake as usual. During this period of time, he had been practicing the Emperor Extreme Peerless Fist, and it was only now that he had completely mastered it.

“The Emperor’s Extreme Peerless Fist has finally been completely mastered. With the addition of the Emperor’s Extreme Splitting Heaven Palm, how about testing its power?” Li Qing’s face was filled with eagerness.

Of course, it was not appropriate to make too much noise in this palace. Therefore, Li Qing only used a little bit of strength. He punched out with his left hand and punched out with his right. At the same time, he struck out two supreme techniques and headed towards the center of the lake.

With the combination of the two styles, Li Qing could faintly feel that the power of the two styles had multiplied, turning into an unparalleled power that could pierce through everything in the world.

Regardless of whether it was real or illusory, when one’s strength reached its peak, everything that stood in front of them would be annihilated in front of this power.

Boom!

A dull voice rang out. This movement wasn’t too loud. The piece of water in the middle of the lake instantly disappeared, completely disappearing from the human world.

“I only used a little bit of strength to display such power!” Li Qing was shocked.

“Looks like the combination of the two moves will be able to unleash the maximum power. As expected of the two supreme techniques of the Extreme Emperor, they can be said to be extremely powerful and worthy of their reputation!”
