Library of Heaven's Path 2: Eternal Fate of the Heavens-Chapter 459 - 94 Law Heavenly Capital
Chapter 459 -94 Law Heavenly Capital
Hearing his name directly called out, Elder Gu You had no choice but to stop.
“Elder Gu, please use the channels of your Wanxiang Sect to spread two messages!”
Prince Yuanqing folded his hands behind his back, his face indifferent.
“Your Highness, please speak!” Elder Gu You bowed deeply.
Prince Yuanqing stated, “First, to the entire Source World, including everyone present—whoever can capture Zhang Xuan and deliver him intact to me, even if they don’t want the title of Duke or the Tribulation Sharing Pill, I can also provide the Peerless Divine Pill formula!”
“What?”
“Is it truly the formula for the Peerless Divine Pill?”
“This… this is too precious!”
A wave of astonishment erupted from the crowd. The ones who originally planned to leave all held their breaths.
They had come rushing here to forcefully demand a glance at the Peerless Divine Pill with hopes of deducing its method of creation, but they hadn’t expected Yuanqing to offer the formula outright, simply for capturing Zhang Xuan!
Such audacity, beyond measure!
Once everyone had digested the news, Prince Yuanqing continued, “Second, the inheritor of the Heavenly Destiny of Ceremony has defied royal authority and moral teachings. I will publicly execute them ten days from now! As for the location—[Law Heavenly Capital]!”
“Law Heavenly Capital? The Tianli Empire’s place of execution for grave offenders?”
“Powerful beings executed there—even minor missteps could result in the formation of a Heaven Mandate Domain. To prevent such phenomena, the Tianli Empire specifically established Law Heavenly Capital. Everyone who enters, regardless of their cultivation, must submit to royal authority and respect moral teachings!”
“Indeed, in that location, royal authority reigns supreme, and no one can defy it. Beyond that, within Law Heavenly Capital, His Highness’s power could amplify infinitely, potentially surpassing the Peak of Life Sea Realm and even reaching the Heavenly Destiny Realm.”
“The inheritor of the Heavenly Destiny of Ceremony… We just heard about them refining Zhilan Valley the other day, and now they’ve already been captured!”
Although Prince Yuanqing’s second revelation caused some intrigue, it did not shock the crowd as much as the first.
“Alright, I’ll return soon and spread the news!”
Bowing his fists, Elder Gu You turned and left.
Just then, Elder Jiang Li suddenly stepped forward and declared, “As for my case, you’ve all seen it—prolonged recovery is necessary. If anyone wishes for me to refine the Peerless Divine Pill, they should prepare the formula and materials well in advance. Otherwise, I won’t meet anyone! Spare yourselves unnecessary trouble and keep things cordial.”
“This…”
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
“Understood!”
“Elder Jiang, take good care of yourself…”
The crowd expressed their support in unison.
No matter who obtained the formula, they would ultimately have to rely on him for refinement. If Elder Jiang died, their efforts would amount to nothing.
“Farewell!”
One by one, they flew out, and within a dozen breaths, the grand hall stood empty but for the Crown Prince and his ministers.
“Chen Zheqing, Floating Life Year 317, embezzled two liang of tribute [Cloud Peak Mist Tea], disrespecting royal authority. Floating Life Year 322… From this day onward, revoke his position and imprison him.”
“Han Yutong, Floating Life Year 226, delayed shipments of Jade Spirit Essence during a relay station mishap and solicited bribes…”
Prince Yuanqing turned to the ministers who had taken the opportunity to stir trouble earlier. With a flick of his hand, detailed accusations materialized and dropped before them.
Having defeated the Third Prince in public, he seized upon the momentum to eliminate his faction’s allies.
“Your Highness, I was wrong…”
“Please spare me, Your Highness—I have a 380-year-old mother and a one-year-old younger brother…”
The ministers’ faces turned pale, and they collapsed trembling to the ground in fear.
Although public imprisonment was nominally an act of discipline, being sent to prison under Prince Yuanqing’s authority almost certainly spelled death.
“Dismiss court!”
Disregarding their pleas, Prince Yuanqing waved grandly before turning to leave, vanishing from sight within moments.
“Pfft!”
However, the invincible Crown Prince who had just cowed everyone into silence collapsed upon returning to the Eastern Palace, spitting a mouthful of fresh blood before fainting onto his bed.
…
Beside a pond.
“One insignificant pill formula, and it settled everyone! One announcement of executing the inheritor of the Heavenly Destiny of Ceremony in ten days, and it’s enough to bait Zhang Xuan… No wonder you appointed this guy as Crown Prince; my brain wouldn’t keep up otherwise.”
The Perfect Middle-Aged Man cracked seeds between his teeth as he spoke.
“This matter was indeed well-handled, but it’s also thanks to your blood essence! Without your bloodline, how could he unleash the Eternal Heart’s deterrence? Without that, none of these plans would carry any weight.”
Emperor Fusheng nodded in apparent satisfaction.
Although the Eternal Heart hadn’t been fully utilized before, this time it had proven advantageous.
So many forces came here to apply pressure, yet instead of humiliating royalty, the situation had eliminated hidden dangers and established prestige.
“It’s no big deal! He prepared this Heaven and Earth Chessboard and sentient chess pieces for me. Not to mention three drops of blood essence—if he asked for two more, how could I refuse?”
The Perfect Middle-Aged Man sighed before adding, “But you must know, every drop of my blood essence carries immense weight. While he managed to simulate Eternal Heart’s deterrence, it took a severe toll on his body. If you care about your son, perhaps provide some tonic to restore his vitality; otherwise, I fear he might not recover and continue fainting.”
“Rest assured—I sent medicine to the Eastern Palace yesterday!”
Emperor Fusheng waved dismissively.
“Alright, then consider it unmentioned…” The Perfect Middle-Aged Man shrugged and pulled out the chessboard once again. “Come, another round!”
“You lousy chess player—you only enjoy playing because you lose… Very well—allow me to defeat you once more!”
Emperor Fusheng chuckled lightly, picking up a chess piece and placing it slowly onto the board.
…
“Without breaking through Love Destiny to the sixth level, it seems impossible to reach the Life Sea Realm…”
Inside a quiet room within Wanxiang Sect, Zhang Xuan rose slowly from his seat.
After spreading the news, he had come here to cultivate, though he understood that pushing to higher realms now would lead nowhere—he had reached a bottleneck.
To break into the Life Sea Realm, he first needed to fully comprehend the Heavenly Destiny to the sixth level.
Currently, he had barely reached the Peak of Fifth Level, leaving still some distance from breakthrough.
Recognizing that cultivation in the short term would yield no results, he pushed open the door to leave.
By now, the disseminated messages should bear fruit, shouldn’t they?
The news of the Eternal Heart was far too tempting—no one could resist its allure. As long as these individuals sought out Prince Yuanqing, he would undoubtedly be plunged into chaos.
And Zhang Xuan, seizing the opportunity, could locate Empyrean Kong shi and rescue him.
As for whether Yuanqing might reveal that he had already consumed the Divine Pill—there wasn’t even a need to worry. Certainly not!
Although Power Destiny hadn’t yet formed within the Library of Heaven’s Path, Zhang Xuan had linked the corresponding currents and fathomed its principles.
If Yuanqing dared disclose such a resounding defeat, the damage he sustained would far outweigh Zhang Xuan’s. To protect himself, Yuanqing would inevitably conceal the information at all costs.
“I’d like to purchase a copy of today’s Wanxiang Sect announcements!”
Striding toward the reception area, Zhang Xuan tossed out his Destiny Plate and spoke coolly.
