"You actually found such a place to gather without inviting me!"
The young master of the Tao family arrived on his mount, his words laced with a hint of accusation.
"You are the young master of the Ancient Tao Family now. How dare we disturb such a busy person!"
Lu Fan chuckled, "After all, your family still has many matters to attend to!"
"Don't be sarcastic with me. I don't want to be the family head!"
The young master of the Tao family said helplessly, "It's a pity that after so many years, I still haven't broken through, unlike you, kid!"
"Cultivation is a gradual process. One day, you will succeed!"
Lu Fan smiled, "When that time comes, we will go to the Heavenly Realm together!"
"Go to the Heavenly Realm together?"
The young master of the Tao family gave a wry smile, "I don't know if I'll have such an opportunity, unlike you!"
"You definitely will!"
Hu Xian'er chuckled, "One day, we definitely will. We'll explore the Heavenly Realm together then!"
The others also burst into laughter. Perhaps, in their eyes, this idea was ultimately too far-fetched.
"Let's go, I'll take you to a great place today!"
The young master of the Tao family smiled and soared into the air. Lu Fan and the others did not hesitate, following the young master of the Tao family.
"What great place is it, that you're being so mysterious about it?"
Lu Fan asked in surprise, "Are you trying to fool us!"
"Martial Emperor City!"
The young master of the Tao family stated directly, "In Martial Emperor City, you can feel the true intent of the Martial Emperor. Wouldn't you say that's a great place!"
Not long after, they arrived at Martial Emperor City. Surrounding Martial Emperor City was a natural aura that ordinary people couldn't enter.
"This is Martial Emperor City?"
Hu Yu exclaimed, "It truly possesses the true intent of the Martial Emperor. How could I not have known about such a place within the Human Realm before!"
"It was discovered not long ago!"
The young master of the Tao family explained, "And if ordinary people wanted to enter Martial Emperor City, they wouldn't have the ability. It's only because our strength is formidable that we can withstand the aura of Martial Emperor City!"
After speaking, the group entered Martial Emperor City. Inside, it appeared ancient and rustic. Everyone could clearly sense an aura emanating from the center of Martial Emperor City, an aura that inspired longing.
Soon after, they entered the Martial Emperor City mansion. Within this mansion, numerous calligraphy and paintings were displayed. Hu Yu, upon merely glancing at them, felt his entire being resonate with profound dao.
However, this dao was too terrifying, and he only dared to steal a glance. If he were to continue observing, he might explode.
"As expected of a Martial Emperor, to possess such profound dao!"
Hu Xian'er marveled, "To reach such a level, they must have been peak individuals in their lifetime!"
"That is only natural. How could one who becomes a Martial Emperor be an ordinary person!"
The young master of the Tao family nodded, his eyes filled with longing. He held Martial Emperor City in extremely high regard.
"These calligraphy and paintings are all extraordinary. They must have been written by him as he was about to ascend!"
Lu Fan remarked, "A Martial Emperor must have already ascended to the Heavenly Realm!"
"That is only natural. I heard that the Martial Emperor Xing Tian had been suppressing his aura, unwilling to ascend to the Heavenly Realm, but ultimately, he couldn't suppress it and could only ascend reluctantly." Su Dan Novel Network
The young master of the Tao family continued, "I see you, Brother Lu, are also in a similar situation. You have the opportunity to ascend, but you don't seem willing. Why is that!"
"You brought me to Martial Emperor City today just to discuss this?" Lu Fan smiled faintly, "If I say that I'm unwilling to ascend because I want to wait for you, what would you say then?"
"If that were truly the case, it would be my greatest fortune!" The young master of the Tao family laughed, "However, as your sworn brother, I still hope you can ascend soon. The Heavenly Realm is where you belong, as it offers a better stage and the opportunity to become an immortal."
"Rest assured, I have my own plans!" Lu Fan smiled faintly, "This Martial Emperor City is excellent. From now on, I will reside in Martial Emperor City and wait for you all to ascend together!"
"Ascend together, is that truly possible?"
Hu Xian'er stood stunned, her eyes filled with seriousness. Such a matter was beyond her wildest dreams, and she didn't know if she could ascend. More importantly, if Lu Fan waited indefinitely, he might be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao.
"Of course, it's possible!" Lu Fan nodded, "Let's make a pact. We will ascend together from Martial Emperor City to the Heavenly Realm!"
Hu Xian'er was slightly taken aback. This was perhaps what she yearned for most. However, she knew that successfully ascending was by no means an easy feat.
After so many years, the Human Race had only produced two Great Sages, and even these two Great Sages did not have the qualification to ascend. It was evident how difficult it was to reach the bottleneck of ascension.
Hu Yu, however, did not dare to be negligent. He immediately sat down cross-legged, feeling the true intent of Martial Emperor City, and his aura continuously climbed.
Suddenly, everyone noticed a change in Hu Yu's aura, as if he had reached a breakthrough bottleneck.
"Is he about to become a Saint King?"
Hu Xian'er exclaimed, her face filled with joy. If this were the case, it would be a great boon to their Hu family.
After all, as an ancient aristocratic family, the Hu family would greatly benefit from the emergence of powerful combatants.
Among everyone, only Hu Yu remained in the Saint realm. If he could reach the Saint King realm, he would also become a powerful figure.
"This Martial Emperor City is indeed extraordinary. Just by looking at a few characters, it can forcefully help someone break through!" the young master of the Tao family chuckled, "Let's cultivate the dao here together, and perhaps we can also touch the bottleneck of the Great Sage!"
Hu Xian'er also nodded slightly. Even she felt that this place was an excellent location. If they stayed in Martial Emperor City for a few years, they might truly reach the level they desired.
Several hundred years passed in the blink of an eye. During these centuries, countless powerful individuals emerged among the Human Race. The entire Spirit Realm was like a golden age for humanity, with waves of experts pouring in, marking a period of immense prosperity for the entire Human Race.
Within Martial Emperor City, a beam of spiritual light shot into the sky. A woman's figure leaped up, receiving a baptism in mid-air. The Human Race onlookers watched, their hearts filled with joy.
"Another Great Sage has emerged! The Human Race has another Great Sage!"
A cry of joy erupted. Everyone looked on with envy. Fifty years ago, the Human Race had produced a peerless prodigy who broke through to the Great Sage realm. It was unexpected that after fifty years, another person had broken through, and both in Martial Emperor City.
Feeling the powerful force surging through her body, Hu Xian'er felt a profound sense of gratitude. Her breakthrough to the Great Sage realm was indeed due to fortunate circumstances. Without the assistance of Martial Emperor City, her talent would not have manifested to this extent.
