"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
Tianhong star field
Hearing what Emperor Tianming said, Yang Qi was obviously stunned for a moment, because the star field in front of him was the Tianhong Star Field, and in the Tianhong Star Field, the most powerful cultivation force was the Tianhong Sect where Emperor Tianming was.
In addition, although there are second-rate cultivation forces, the name of Xuanheng Sect is still not among these cultivation forces.
This means that the Xuanheng Sect is not even considered the top cultivation force in the Tianhong Star Region!
How could Yang Qi not be surprised that a sect that possessed the inheritance of Sword Emperor and Martial Emperor, the third-level peak power, was not even considered the top force in a star field
You know, the Tianhong star field is not particularly powerful. In the current Tianhong Sect, only Emperor Tianming is at the peak of the Martial Emperor level, and he is a newly promoted peak Martial Emperor!
Even in such a star field that is not particularly powerful, the sect that possesses the Sword Emperor but has only seen the inheritance is not considered to be the top strength. This is really unbelievable.
After all, if their strength is too weak, they will not be able to protect the inheritance of Sword Emperor Wu. What is the matter with this cultivation force called Xuanheng Sect
"I know that Xuanheng Sect has only one martial emperor-level practitioner in their generation." Firethorn Emperor paused for a moment before continuing, "Is this Xuanheng Sect really related to the sword emperor-level practitioner?"
It's no wonder that Emperor Huo Ji had such doubts. The strength of Xuan Heng Sect was really surprising. There was only one cultivator at the level of Martial Emperor. Even without the support of the Lord of the Universe, it would be difficult for the cultivation forces to always be victorious. But after all, they were holding the inheritance of a third-level strong man at the peak of Martial Emperor. It was really unbelievable that they had declined to this extent.
There is only one practitioner at the Martial Emperor level
When Yang Qi heard this, a look of disbelief appeared on his face. He obviously did not expect that the Xuanheng Sect was not only not the top cultivation force in the Tianhong Star Region, but also had declined to the point where there was only one Martial Emperor-level cultivator in charge.
“Yes, this generation of Xuanheng Sect does have only one Martial Emperor-level cultivator in charge.” Emperor Tianming nodded slightly.
“Senior Tianming, how did the Xuanheng Sect preserve the inheritance of the Sword Emperor Wu when it had declined to this extent?” Yang Qi said, looking at Emperor Tianming in front of him.
The inheritance of Sword Emperor Wu, even if it is not about swordsmanship, is the inheritance left by a powerful person at the third level of the peak of Martial Emperor. It is enough to make practitioners at the Emperor level and even practitioners at the peak of Martial Emperor level excited.
It should be impossible for a cultivation group consisting of only Martial Emperor-level practitioners to preserve such a heritage.
"Because not many practitioners know about this, few people in the Tianhong Star Region know that Xuanheng Sect holds the inheritance of Sword Emperor Wufei's sword art." Emperor Tianming paused for a moment and continued, "In addition, Xuanheng Sect is also attached to our Tianhong Sect and is protected by our Tianhong Sect, so no one dares to attack Xuanheng Sect."
I see!
Yang Qi nodded slightly and finally understood why the Xuanheng Sect was not strong but was able to be passed down. This was because there were not many practitioners who knew the secrets of the Xuanheng Sect, and with the protection of the Tianhong Sect, their own safety would naturally be no problem.
However, Emperor Tianming's words raised another question in Yang Qi's mind. Thinking of this, Yang Qi immediately looked at Emperor Tianming in front of him.
Emperor Tianming felt Yang Qi's gaze and couldn't help but say, "You want to ask me why Tianhong Sect didn't just destroy Xuanheng Sect and seize the inheritance held by Xuanheng Sect, right?"
"good!"
Yang Qi nodded slightly. There were only interests between the forces of cultivation. Good and evil were not absolute. If the treasure was attractive enough, even brothers in life and death could turn against each other, let alone the forces of cultivation.
The Xuanheng Sect is not strong, but it holds such a precious inheritance. He doesn't believe that the Tianhong Sect will not be tempted, and he doesn't believe that the Tianhong Sect will not have the intention to seize the inheritance.
After all, with the strength of Tianhong Sect, even if it destroyed Xuanheng Sect, it would be easy to do so without leaving any trace.
“In fact, our ancestors of Tianhong Sect have thought about destroying Xuanheng Sect and seizing Sword Emperor Wufei’s sword inheritance. It’s not that they don’t want to, but they can’t.” Emperor Tianming said calmly, and did not hide the fact that his ancestors had the idea of seizing those inheritances.
Yang Qi was a little surprised at Emperor Tianming's frankness, but he quickly recovered. For a top-notch expert, there was no need to be too hypocritical. The cultivation world itself was a world where the strong preyed on the weak and the strong were respected.
In the world of cultivation, it is very common to possess valuable treasures without sufficient strength and to bring about fatal disasters. If one treats other practitioners as saints, he would die without knowing how he died.
"Then why..." Yang Qi looked at Emperor Tianming and asked.
"The ancestors of Xuanheng Sect seemed to have anticipated that Xuanheng Sect would decline, so when they obtained the inheritance, they set up means. Once Xuanheng Sect is destroyed, those inheritances will be directly destroyed." Emperor Tianming paused for a moment and continued, "So destroying Xuanheng Sect and seizing the inheritance will not work at all!"
"In addition, the Xuanheng Sect will rely on the most powerful cultivation force in the Tianhong Star Domain and open up that part of the Sword Emperor's inheritance to the practitioners of this cultivation force in order to seek protection. Under such circumstances, do you think the cultivation force that controls the Tianhong Star Domain will do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit itself?" Emperor Tianming spoke again.
I see!
Hearing this, Yang Qi immediately understood that the Xuan Heng Sect had bought a life-saving talisman for itself with the help of the inheritance of the Sword Emperor Wu. It was not difficult to destroy the Xuan Heng Sect, but destroying the Xuan Heng Sect would not gain anything. On the contrary, protecting the Xuan Heng Sect would gain the inheritance of the Sword Emperor Wu. In this case, no matter who it was, they would know what to choose!
No wonder Xuanheng Sect, although not very strong, still holds the inheritance of Sword Emperor Wu. It is better to say that it is held by Tianhong Sect than Xuanheng Sect. But no matter what, the inheritance is still in the hands of Xuanheng Sect, and the practitioners of Xuanheng Sect can obtain and practice it.
This is not a big loss for the Xuanheng Sect. Instead, it can get the protection of the most powerful cultivation force in the star field, allowing the sect to continue its inheritance.
"The ancestor of Xuanheng Sect who left such restrictions was quite foresighted." Yang Qi said with emotion. He admired the ancestor of Xuanheng Sect for leaving such restrictions.
If the other party had not left such restrictions, given the extent of Xuanheng Sect's decline, it would have been eradicated long ago and disappeared in the long river of history.
A big reason why Xuanheng Sect was able to be passed down is because the ancestors of Xuanheng Sect set such restrictions, which made Yang Qi admire them very much.
