"Let them send the spirit crystals over, and you all retreat!" Yu Kai waved away a few people.
Several people respectfully exited the hall, their hearts brimming with excitement. They had never dreamed they would actually be able to face the legendary Thirteen Ancient Heirs head-on. This honor made their hearts beat violently in their chests. Emperor Qingwu couldn't help but mutter, "What great luck..."
Yu Kai remained alone in the main hall, a cold glint in his eyes. His heart was roiling with turbulent waves, yet his exterior remained calm. He whispered to himself, "It seems Zhang Qiming is the Thirteenth Ancient Descendant, Ancient Taichu! Did he come to Earth just to find the pseudo-god seed within me? He must be! His status within the Ancient Relics is so high, how could ordinary treasures hold a candle to him? Besides the pseudo-god seed, what else could possibly interest him so much!" His eyes grew colder, murderous intent spreading within him. "Whether for my own sake or to protect the Primordial Immortal Realm from being infested by the Ancient Relics, I must eliminate him. I cannot allow him to recover to his peak strength, nor can I allow him to summon the Ancient Relics!"
As he pondered this, a rumbling sound echoed from afar. The Three Emperors had already sent their men to deliver a vast amount of spirit crystals, which filled the hall like a mountain. Looking at these spirit crystals, Yu Kai was shocked. He sighed to himself, "Damn it! Having a background makes all the difference! If I could absorb all these spirit crystals, could I possibly break through to the peak of the Great Emperor realm? Alas! Unfortunately, I don't have much time. If the ancient descendants weren't arriving in a year, I'd be so afraid of being exposed. I'd definitely reach the peak of the Great Emperor realm!"
He finally made up his mind: "Never mind. I'll just practice for this year. As many breakthroughs as I can achieve! Get out before the ancient descendants arrive!" Yu Kai immediately began to practice. His Chaos Divine Body fully activated, and the spirit crystals dissipated at a visible rate, transforming into the purest spiritual energy that converged on him. As he rapidly absorbed them, the amount of spirit crystals in the hall gradually dwindled. The Three Emperors dared not neglect their duties, fearing that it would affect his practice, and desperately urged their subordinates to quickly deliver the spirit crystals.
During Yu Kai's year of retreat and cultivation, the happiest people were undoubtedly the enslaved humans. They had finally bid farewell to their days of mining, and they rejoiced, as if they had been reborn. A sense of liberation permeated the entire vast immortal realm.
Spirit crystals were continuously delivered throughout the year. With these crystals, Yu Kai raised his cultivation to the middle stage of the Great Emperor. His strength grew steadily, but he knew in his heart that it was far from enough.
Today, Yu Kai, carrying a vast amount of spirit crystals, left the Eastern Region under the gaze of the Three Emperors and the crowd, flying towards the Holy Ying Dynasty. He emanated a powerful aura, as if the entire world was making way for him.
The three emperors wanted to follow, but were stopped by him: "I don't need your help to deal with a Ying Tianna! After I subdue them, I will leave across time and space. You must guard the vast fairyland for me! I am of great use, and this is crucial to that treasure!" His words were filled with unquestionable majesty.
Emperor Qingwu and the other two could only obey the order respectfully! Under their gaze, Yu Kai condensed a huge Dharma image of the ancient descendants and rushed into the capital of the Shengying Dynasty. Then, a loud rumbling sound was heard. The battle was extremely fierce, and the entire earth was shaking violently.
The smoke of war finally cleared, and silence returned to the world. The three emperors exchanged glances, turned in unison, and hurried to their respective palaces. That year, they had walked on thin ice, fearing even the slightest misstep in the reception, to the point of neglecting even their own injuries. Yu Kai's ruthless attack had been intended to severely injure them, buying Xuan'er time to grow.
At this moment, Yu Kai had already injected all of the spirit crystals he had brought back into the underground spiritual veins, which was the reason for the earth's trembling. Now, the spiritual energy of the entire imperial capital, and even the Holy Ying Dynasty, had become extremely rich, almost condensed into substance. Every inch of the imperial capital seemed to be glowing with new vitality, and all things were flourishing.
Xuan'er rushed to the imperial capital as soon as she saw Yu Kai. She quickly threw herself into his arms, her tone full of concern: "What took you so long? I was almost worried sick. If I didn't know that the human race over there had stopped mining, I would have gone to find you myself!"
"I was waiting for them to deliver the spirit crystals over there, and I was also improving my strength." Yu Kai touched her head, looking a little embarrassed. "I didn't expect they mined so many spirit crystals!"
"So what are your plans next?" Xuan'er saw that Li Dong and others were there, so she got up from Yu Kai's arms and asked.
"Wait for the ancient descendants to arrive and see if there is any change. If nothing happens, prepare to leave." Yu Kai's eyes showed reluctance.
Xuan'er seemed to sense something. She bit her lower lip lightly, a flicker of uneasiness in her eyes. Her hands unconsciously twisted the corners of her clothes, and this subtle movement revealed her inner anxiety.
At this moment, Zixiao's voice sounded in Yu Kai's mind: "Young Master, Lord Beast sent a message through the Dingkong Bell, saying that the ancient descendants are patrolling the reincarnation channel, and it may not be safe for us to go back now!" Her voice was full of worry.
"What's wrong?" Xuan'er asked softly when she saw Yu Kai was distracted.
"I may have to go into seclusion for a while to prepare for returning to the prehistoric world." Yu Kai looked at Xuan'er with a serious expression.
"Oh." Xuan'er responded softly, her tone unable to hide the disappointment, and the uneasiness in her eyes was even greater.
"Your Majesty! Let's go to the palace. All the civil and military officials want to see you." Li Dong stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Okay." Yu Kai flashed, put on the bronze mask again, put on the emperor's robe, took Xuan'er's hand, and flew towards the palace.
At the palace gate, the five War Kings, along with Luo Shunli, Han Fangchuan, and others, were already waiting with civil and military officials. Upon seeing Yu Kai, Li Dong, and the others arrive, they immediately knelt and kowtowed, shouting in unison, "We respectfully welcome Your Majesty back to the palace!"
