Chapter 2051: Chapter 35: Daoist Brother, You Must Believe Me! I’m Really from the Heavenly Time Sect!

"Emperor Chixiao hasn’t gone to any other island. He’s been wholeheartedly comprehending on this one, and he didn’t even take part in the scramble when Magic Artifacts appeared."

It was obvious Emperor Chixiao had grand designs; he disdained grabbing some random Magic Artifact, his goal lay solely in the three floating islands of the sixth layer.

"An old acquaintance has come to pay a visit, I ask that Emperor Chixiao grant me an audience."

Zhao Xing blew out a gust of wind that fell onto the cloud layer above Chixiao Island, softly calling out over and over.

Inside the island, in an elegant, lofty pavilion, Emperor Chixiao sat cross-legged, facing a stele in front of him.

Upon hearing the commotion outside, Emperor Chixiao suddenly opened his eyes; a strand of Thunder Light flashed within them as memories swiftly surfaced in his mind.

In the end, the scene froze on a moment from ten thousand years ago, inside the Time Hut of the Yuanhai Ancient Country.

"Tian Ningzi..."

Emperor Chixiao extended a finger; a hole instantly opened in the clouds, golden light hanging down to escort Zhao Xing’s descent.

"Since an old acquaintance has come calling, please enter the Cloud Pavilion, that we may converse."

Zhao Xing did not hesitate, and immediately followed the cloud path down into the interior of the island.

Outside, Thunder Light rolled and wild winds howled, yet within it was utterly tranquil.

Zhao Xing looked around. On the island the weather was fine, flowers, grasses, and trees grew in clusters, and there were even many pavilions rising up; there wasn’t the slightest sign of Marquis Transformation.

"Has Emperor Chixiao already completely conquered the fifth layer?" Zhao Xing was inwardly shocked. Back at the Yuanhai Conference, among the nine Emperors, Zhao Xing had judged Emperor Chixiao’s strength to be inferior to Meng Wu and Wei Tianchen, and even weaker than Hongshan.

Yet seeing him again now, Emperor Chixiao’s strength seemed to have advanced greatly.

When he saw Emperor Chixiao in person, he discovered the other had already passed through six True Spirit Tribulations—stronger even than Juan, who had only crossed five.

"Should I call you Zhao Xing, or Tian Ningzi?" Emperor Chixiao watched as Zhao Xing landed.

"If Brother Chixiao is pleased, you may call me whatever you like."

"Hmph, you still dare to come see me." With Emperor Chixiao’s cold snort, heaven and earth suddenly changed color, wild winds roared, thunder surged—a scene of world annihilation.

Nine bolts of thunder streaked straight toward Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xing stood unmoving, as if he completely ignored these attacks.

Seeing this, Emperor Chixiao recalled the thunder tongues just as they were about to touch Zhao Xing.

"Are you not afraid of death?"

"Brother, you bear no killing intent—what is there for me to fear?" Zhao Xing was panicking like mad inside, yet his face remained calm as clouds and light breeze; he slowly walked into the Cloud Pavilion and took a seat before Emperor Chixiao.

"Not only am I unafraid of the Emperor, I in fact wish to ask Brother to lend me a hand."

"Hahahaha? That’s the greatest joke under heaven!" Emperor Chixiao burst out laughing. "You tricked me once before, and now you actually want me to help you?"

"Go on then, tell me how you want me to help you?"

The reason Zhao Xing was so certain was mainly because he saw that on Emperor Chixiao’s status panel there were several Spells from the Annihilation Star Six Qi Theory.

Which meant Emperor Chixiao had not only read his Magic Theory, he had even cultivated the Spells.

The Annihilation Star Magic Theory still had many hidden catches. Since Emperor Chixiao was this interested—studying not just the treatise but actually cultivating the Spells—there was no way he would kill him on the spot.

And as long as there was a chance to talk, Zhao Xing believed there was no Minister of Agriculture he couldn’t handle.

"I only wish to borrow Brother Chixiao’s blessed land, to cultivate here for some years."

"You and I share a common pursuit."

Emperor Chixiao snorted coldly. "You mean the sixth layer of the floating islands? Then all the more reason I should kill you—why would I let you become my competitor?"

Zhao Xing shook his head. "No, the common pursuit I speak of is not this trifling legacy of the Bai Han Realm, but the promotion of the Heavenly Time Sect and the pursuit of the Heavenly Time Dao."

"Brother, do you know that the Annihilation Star Theory is neither an Earth Advantage Sect nor Self Sect Magic Theory? Its roots ought to lie in the Heavenly Time Sect!"

Emperor Chixiao’s attitude remained cold. "That’s not what you said when you held your dharma assembly. The Six Qi Theory has an Earth Advantage Chapter and a Self Chapter, yet lacks only a Heavenly Time Chapter!"

Zhao Xing said helplessly, "In the current Xuanling Star Domain, the Earth Advantage Sect and the Self Sect have the Ancient Hill and the Primordial Realm. Even if I wish to promote the Heavenly Time Dao, I am but one man with shallow strength; with those two great mountains pressing down, what can I do?"

Emperor Chixiao’s expression eased somewhat. "So you, in your heart of hearts, also believe the Heavenly Time Dao is the true mainstream, the Ultimate Dao that can save the world?"

"Of course!" Zhao Xing fished out an ancient text from his Storage Ring and slapped it onto the table. "All my life I have pursued the existence of the Extreme Star. Joining the Primordial Realm to cultivate Self Sect Magic, and even Earth Advantage Sect Magic, was merely a roundabout way to seek the Dao."

"Brother, this is the Heavenly Time Theory within the Annihilation Star Six Qi Theory—this is where the true essence lies. You are the first to see it; does that not prove that you and I are of one mind? Does it not prove my conviction?"

Emperor Chixiao very much wanted to blast Zhao Xing away and not listen to his nonsense, yet the words that reached his lips changed. He subconsciously picked up the ancient text and flipped through it, asking at the same time, "I truly am the first to see this?"

"Brother, you must believe me. If there is any falsehood, may heaven strike me down with thunder!" Zhao Xing vowed solemnly!
