Chapter 1203: Chapter 1203
"Direct Lineage of the Royal Family, Taiyi? So you’re the newly returned direct descendant? Your status is indeed not in question. I didn’t expect you to become a Heavenly King so quickly."
"Every Direct Lineage Heavenly King has their own Heavenly King Palace. You are no exception. Among these many Heavenly King Palaces, choose one for yourself."
Cold Mountain Heavenly King led Li Yi to a palace meant for the Direct Lineage of the Royal Family. This place, accessible only to the Direct Lineage, was managed by an old Heavenly King. After scrutinizing Li Yi and verifying his identity, he casually waved his hand and brought out several exquisite palaces.
These palaces weren’t large, but had a prominent large door. In reality, they were a King’s Weapon, containing their own space, like a small world.
Li Yi chose a purple palace: "I’ll take this one."
"Take it. Choose one place from these areas to place it, but once you decide, you can’t change it." The old Heavenly King took out a map with several marked points.
Li Yi chose a relatively quiet spot with no one around.
"Direct Lineage Royal Family Taiyi." The old Heavenly King then instructed Li Yi to drop a drop of blood on the map. From now on, he had a place of his own here.
"Is there a Dragon Transformation Pill in the treasure house?" Li Yi asked after dropping a drop of blood.
The old Heavenly King said: "Yes."
Having said that, he retrieved a treasure box from another place, opened it, and inside were numerous Dragon Transformation Pills. He then asked, "How many do you need?"
"Is it free?" Li Yi asked in surprise.
The old Heavenly King said: "No charge. This is the Royal Family Treasure Vault itself. Every direct descendant of the royal family has the right to withdraw items from the treasure vault. However, the privilege level varies with strength."
"What is my privilege level?" Li Yi asked.
The old Heavenly King’s eyes narrowed as he said: "Only the Divine Emperor has the right to see it. Heavenly Kings do not have access."
What is referred to as privilege is an assessment. According to this direct descendant’s potential, combat power, and bloodline concentration, it is evaluated how many resources this Heavenly King is eligible to obtain from the treasure vault. Such an assessment is not subjective either.
Previously, Emperor Haoguang had taken a drop of divine blood from Li Yi, and his potential had already been recorded in the family tree. The privilege had been discreetly marked.
"Then give me nine more Dragon Transformation Pills." Since that was the case, Li Yi saw no reason to hold back.
The old Heavenly King didn’t say much, just handed over nine more Dragon Transformation Pills: "Do you need anything else?"
"The Heavenly King Palaces are nice. I want two more." Li Yi was testing how high his privileges actually were.
The old Heavenly King brought out many more Heavenly King Palaces for Li Yi to choose from.
Li Yi was not shy and directly picked two more Heavenly King Palaces. These objects might not be rare in the Heavenly Realm, but bringing them back to Earth would be extraordinary. They were both a sacred place for cultivation and an impregnable refuge.
Now that he had the chance, he naturally had to look after his homeland.
"Do you need anything else?" the old Heavenly King asked.
"World Boat, can I own one independently?" Li Yi asked.
"That’s no problem, either." The old Heavenly King brought out many different sizes of World Boats for Li Yi to choose from. After all, the Heavenly God Clan was in the World Boat business and certainly knew how to craft them.
Li Yi chose a small World Boat. Content with what he had, although small, it contained three Secret Realms, much better than the one owned by the Divine Might Heavenly King.
Ten Dragon Transformation Pills, two Heavenly King Palaces, one World Boat.
Having acquired these items, it seemed that Li Yi’s privileges weren’t exhausted. He just didn’t know what else he needed, so he finally took ten Star Cores and stopped there.
The reason for wanting Star Cores was that Li Yi wanted to use them to transform a world with scarce Spiritual Energy, a blessing for one place.
After Li Yi walked out of the Heavenly God Treasure House, he immediately flew toward his territory.
The old Heavenly King watched Li Yi depart, a smile appearing on his face. A direct descendant Heavenly King so young naturally enjoyed high privileges. The items he just took were nothing, merely cheap goods.
"Is this the treatment for the direct lineage of the royal family? Truly absurd."
Li Yi, who had never seen the world, was still sighing with emotion.
Beside him, Cold Mountain Heavenly King was also visiting the Heavenly God Treasure House for the first time. As a regular Heavenly King, she wouldn’t have been eligible to enter without Li Yi.
Of course, she wasn’t the only one. The various Divine Generals behind her were in the same boat.
A direct descendant Heavenly King could casually withdraw anything from the Heavenly God Treasure House, and everything outside would be treasures, sparking competition even.
"Yu Shang, here’s a Dragon Transformation Pill for you." Li Yi casually tossed a Dragon Transformation Pill: "This is what I promised you. I hope you cultivate diligently and break through to become a Heavenly King soon."
"Thank you for the Heavenly King’s gift." Yu Shang was filled with gratitude. Following Taiyi, she had truly turned over a new leaf.
A Dragon Transformation Pill would give her the opportunity to transform into a True Dragon and possibly become a Dragon King. Otherwise, she would remain a Heavenly General for life.
"There’s an opportunity to recruit a few more Dragon Girls, then raise your own Dragon Girl Guard." Li Yi had his own reasoning for taking a few extra Dragon Transformation Pills.
He couldn’t rely entirely on members of the Heavenly God Clan. What if one day he parted ways with them, and then who would he have by his side?
After all, he was a half-blood, only purer because his divine blood had been refined by the blood of a Heavenly Venerate.
As an Earthling, he deeply understood the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket.
Training ten Dragon Girls seemed to be his limit. Any more would not be worthwhile or necessary since he could also cultivate other people or even other races.
Of course, all of this would proceed slowly.
Li Yi arrived at his own territory, nestled between mountains and rivers, with picturesque scenery, swirling mist, and abundant auspicious energy, perfect for secluded cultivation.
However, in the place where the direct lineage of the Royal Family resides, every spot is a treasured land; it just depends on personal preference.
Li Yi tossed out his Heavenly King Palace, and with a burst of Mana, it instantly transformed into a giant portal settling upon the earth.
The palace was imposing and majestic, akin to being atop the Cloud Sea Peak, not like the residence of mortals, but like the abode of a Heavenly God.
Li Yi opened the heavy palace door, inside was a world, though primitive, it was only because nobody had attended to it. With a little care, it would become a Cave Heaven Blessed Land.
After all, it is a Heavenly King Hall.
He then thought of Hua Qing’s Imperial Palace, which contained a stretch of starry sky, numerous worlds.
Thinking , it too was a Treasure.
"Very good, from now on this will be the Taiyi Heavenly King Palace," Li Yi decided. If there were no particularly important events, he would cultivate here in seclusion for a long time.
After all, with the identity of a Direct Lineage Heavenly King, he could access the Heavenly God Treasure House for countless resources, there was no need to fight desperately outside.
Moreover, the Heavenly Realm was fraught with crises, he had many secrets, secrets that even a Heavenly King should not casually expose.
Besides, after laboring for so long, it was time to enjoy the Royal Family’s privileges.
"Heavenly King, I have them organize the Heavenly King Palace," Cold Mountain Heavenly King said.
"Good." Li Yi nodded: "And put in some additional items, lest it resembles a primitive world."
Though it was a trivial matter, having someone help was always beneficial.
Soon, four Divine Generals and Dragon Girl Yushang entered the Heavenly King Palace first and began tidying up. They used Divine Power to alter the geographic features, organize ley lines, set up a Grand Array, gather Spiritual Energy, aiming to concentrate the world’s essence for Taiyi’s cultivation.
Li Yi sensed something and looked toward a direction behind him.
Several Heavenly King auras started converging rapidly toward this place, these auras were strong, unlike ordinary Heavenly Kings.
"Trouble has arrived." Li Yi had already guessed the reason.
The three Royal Family Heavenly Kings couldn’t seize the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon before, plus he had already broken through to the Heavenly King Realm, the Royal Family had given up completely and wouldn’t plot against him anymore.
But the Direct Lineage Royal Family wasn’t the same,
"Taiyi, I heard you obtained a Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon outside, shall we have a match? If you lose, hand over the Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon, how about it?"
A resounding voice echoed in the space of the Royal Family Direct Lineage. A towering young man descended from the sky arrogantly, his formidable Heavenly King’s Power surging,
Weaker individuals could hardly stand steady before him.
This young Heavenly King was straightforward, directly stating his purpose.
Li Yi didn’t speak, merely glancing at others behind him, six Heavenly King Guards, every one was extraordinary, all Royal Family Heavenly Kings, none ordinary.
Furthermore, this young Heavenly King’s arm bore a bracelet, the same as Li Yi’s, displaying seven colors.
Three color for Royal Family, seven colors for Direct Lineage Royal Family.
Clearly, this was a Direct Lineage Royal Family Heavenly King, identical in status to Li Yi within the Heavenly God Clan.
"What’s your name?" Li Yi asked.
"I am Divine Flying Heavenly King." The young Heavenly King stared at Li Yi: "How about a battle of the Direct Lineage Heavenly Kings? Only the strong are worthy of possessing a Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel•fire.net
This Direct Lineage Heavenly King named Divine Flying lacked for nothing, except a Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon.
Thus, he always had his six Guardian Heavenly Kings keep an eye on Li Yi, rushing over the moment Li Yi settled down, lest others got here first.
"A duel for my Heavenly Emperor’s Weapon? You’re too confident." Li Yi said.
"Because my strength is strong enough, thus confident." Divine Flying Heavenly King remained arrogant,
Li Yi assessed him again, though this Divine Flying Heavenly King seemed rash, his aura was indeed formidable, estimated to have strong Combat Power.
"You’re no match for me, leave, engaging me isn’t a wise choice, it might even lead to your death. If a Royal Family Heavenly King falls, so be it. But if I killed a Direct Lineage Heavenly King, the consequences would be significant."
"Arrogant." Divine Flying Heavenly King instantly raged: "Are you so sure you can defeat me?"
"Though you’re strong, your combat experience is lacking; in a life-and-death duel, I can kill you within ten moves," Li Yi stated, his judgment precise.
This young Direct Lineage Heavenly King had high realm and great combat power but was too well-protected, even with sparring experience, he likely never faced true life-and-death battles.
Life-and-death battles differ greatly from regular sparring.
Yet as a Direct Lineage, the priority is propagation and inheritance, not fighting and warring outside, for each Direct Lineage is the root of the Heavenly God Clan, to be protected.
Even Li Yi, an outsider Direct Lineage without background, directly owned his Guardian Heavenly Kings, let alone the native-born Direct Lineage within the Heavenly God Country.
