"Your Majesty Yi Huang, the curse mark on your body... it's gone! Could it be... you've already broken the curse?"
Qing Yunzi had been keeping a close eye on Yi Tianxing throughout. No one knew what would happen when the curse exploded, so he had remained vigilant. But now, the Eye Mark that had once gleamed on Yi Tianxing's brow had completely vanished in a burst of divine light. Even the aura of the curse had dissipated. That could only mean one thing — the curse had been broken.
"Indeed, the curse has been broken. And... I've also gained quite a bit from it."Yi Tianxing nodded with a faint smile.
This was something that couldn't be hidden. Even if it was revealed, it didn't matter.
"Daoist Qing Yunzi, Mister Jiang will remain here at your sect to assist in breaking the Dragon-Suppressing Nails. As for your sect's affairs, your sect master should make proper arrangements. Any disciple who wishes may join the Great Yi Dynasty, register with the Celestial Register Card, and gain the same rights as all other citizens. So long as they obey our laws, your sect will be officially recognized. But if they violate the law... punishment will be just as severe. It's a matter that requires careful consideration."
Now that the entire Snow Continent had fallen under Great Yi's domain, the Green Mountain Immortal Sect had no choice but to choose a side. Of course, they would receive special privileges — like a special administrative zone — but they couldn't act lawlessly. The Great Yi Dynasty reserved the right to intervene if necessary.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. Once our spirit veins are restored, I shall personally lead my disciples to the Great Yi Immortal City, register with the Celestial Register, and accept the law of the Great Yi Dynasty. Any disciple who violates the law will be handed over for punishment by the court."Qing Yunzi replied firmly.
His tone was noticeably humble — a direct result of the overwhelming show of strength in the previous battle.
This was the true authority of a Destiny Dynasty — forged in blood, through one war after another. This battle had destroyed the Ice Crystal Royal Court, an alien Dynasty. Compared to them, Qing Yunzi knew the Green Mountain Sect was even less capable of resistance. If Great Yi had decided to obliterate them, they wouldn't have survived.
In the end, it all came down to one truth:Power is everything.
Whoever has the bigger fist, makes the rules.
A brilliant beam of multicolored light descended from the sky.
The Nine-Dragon War Chariot appeared in the void, and Yi Tianxing boarded it with his consorts. Amid the respectful farewells of the Green Mountain Sect, the chariot soared into the skies along the Rainbow Bridge of Divine Light, vanishing into the horizon.
"Dear husband, we've only been out a few days. Why are you in such a hurry to return to the palace? Did something change with the curse?"Cai Yan asked with concern.
They had all been affected when the curse flared up, but the diluted curse had not harmed them. In fact, it had even improved their physical constitution — a blessing in disguise. But clearly, Yi Tianxing had endured something far more intense.
"It's not that the curse changed — it has already been completely eradicated. But more importantly, I've obtained a great fortune.The accumulated curse energy in my body has fused into my bloodline. I've condensed a source bloodline, and from it, the Origin True Blood.From this moment on, my physique and divine abilities will be able to be passed on through bloodline inheritance."Yi Tianxing said with a smile.
This was a tremendous fortune — not just for him, but for the entire Yi clan.
It meant they now possessed the foundations of an eternally thriving royal bloodline, destined to endure through the ages. No longer just a symbolic term, the phrase "royal bloodline" was now entirely literal.
"That's wonderful! If your bloodline can be passed on, the royal family's roots will run deep, and in time, it'll only strengthen Your Majesty's foundation."Yao Yue said with a pleased expression. She was now fully committed to the prosperity of the Great Yi Dynasty.
"Too bad An Ning and the others were born too early. If they'd been born later, maybe they could have inherited Your Majesty's new bloodline."Nie Xiaoqian sighed with a hint of regret.
"Heh, don't worry. I am the originator of this bloodline, the ancestor. An Ning and the others are my daughters — the moment my bloodline evolved, theirs also began to transform. There's a kind of spiritual resonance. Even without direct transfer, they will awaken the bloodline on their own."Yi Tianxing chuckled — this was what pleased him most.
"Really? Will An Ning and the others awaken their bloodlines? Will there be any dangers during awakening?"Lian Xing asked worriedly.
"I'm not sure what exactly will happen. But bloodline inheritance varies in strength — some will receive more, some less. How much they awaken depends entirely on their own luck."
Yi Tianxing nodded solemnly. That was also why, once he condensed the Origin True Blood, he had immediately rushed back. He feared something might happen to his daughters during awakening — and now that he had transformed, their awakening was all but guaranteed.
"Then we must hurry!"Cai Yan and the others grew increasingly anxious.
"Speaking of which... I still haven't named my Origin Bloodline yet. Since this is a one-of-a-kind bloodline, it deserves a name just as unique.Why don't you all help me think of one?"
There was still some time before they reached the palace, and it was as good a time as any to settle on a name. That way, he could proudly tell An Ning and the others when the time came.
"Your physique fuses your innate divine abilities and the Solar essence from the curse. The sun represents nobility and supremacy — what about calling it the Solar Divine Physique or the Solar Sacred Body?"Snake Ji suggested after some thought.
Indeed, the bloodline had a natural affinity with solar energy. Simply basking in sunlight would now replenish his true essence and strengthen his body, even without cultivation.
"But that only reflects part of it. Your bloodline also includes the Gourmet Physique, where tasting delicacies strengthens you. Besides, I've heard there are already Solar Physiques in the world. That name wouldn't stand out."Yao Yue shook her head.
"Since my husband walks the path of an imperial dynasty — the path of the emperor, ruler of all — why not call it the Celestial Emperor Sacred Body?"Cao Jie proposed.
"Sage Sovereign Tyrant Body!"Lian Xing chimed in with a glimmer in her eyes.
"What about the Human Emperor Body? You're the emperor of the human race. I heard it's one of the highest physiques, only accessible to rulers."Nie Xiaoqian added.
After listening to everyone, Cai Yan pondered a moment, then said:
"Why not combine them all and call it...The Celestial Emperor Divine Sovereign Physique (天帝神皇体).Emperor of the Heavens, Sovereign of Humanity."
"Emperor of the Heavens... Sovereign of Humanity..."Yi Tianxing repeated the words aloud, letting them roll off his tongue.A flash of approval lit his eyes. He nodded.
"Yes. That's the name. From this day forth, my bloodline shall be known as the Celestial Emperor Divine Sovereign Physique. I may not yet fully deserve the title, but with time and effort, I shall evolve it into its true form — one that will command all races, dominate all realms, and reign invincible across the heavens."
His voice rang with ambition, echoing with boundless aspiration.
Though it was still far away, the path ahead was clear.
And soon enough, the Rainbow Bridge delivered them back to Xuanhuang City, to the imperial palace.
"Quick! Call the imperial physicians! If anything happens to the princesses, you'll all pay for it!"
"Send word to the Tower of Heaven — summon all Grand Elders! Find out what's happening! Even the Golden Crow Curse wouldn't cause this!"
Within the palace, chaos reigned.
Palace maids ran about in panic. Chief Eunuch Cao Zhengchun barked orders, his face grim.
In the Hundred Flowers Hot Springs, Princess An Ning and her sisters lay unconscious, enveloped in mist and steam.
Their bodies glowed a fiery red, radiating intense heat.
On their delicate skin — flames danced. Their temperatures were soaring beyond what an ordinary person could survive.
Something had clearly begun…
Something unstoppable.
