Chapter 560 - 443: Who Is Chosen by Fate

For Ji Qingyue, her willingness to choose the obviously disadvantaged Star Sea Continent was naturally not for any nostalgic feelings for her homeland.

Perhaps there was a trace of it, but certainly not all of it.

The most important reason was, of course, that under Qi Ping’s rule, the Star Sea Continent had the opportunity to break through the Integration Stage, and even aspire to higher levels.

How long has it been, and Meng Tianqi, who was once inferior to her, now seems to have reached a level where the outcome between them is hard to determine.

The most outrageous, however, is Baili Yun, someone she could barely challenge with one hand in the past, who has now achieved Integration. That nearly shocks her for ten thousand years; after all, this is a realm she pursued for countless ages, and he just achieved it!

The growth rate of the Star Sea Continent under Qi Ping’s rule is simply absurdly fast.

What impressed her was that she could see Qi Ping was genuinely committed to developing the Star Sea Continent.

Yet, that wasn’t the most impressive thing. What impressed her the most was Qi Ping’s methods of developing the Star Sea Continent, mobilizing almost everyone’s enthusiasm and wisdom to propel the world’s advancement, and with her perspective as the once strongest on the Star Sea Continent, she had never seen such an excellent ruler.

A current historical evaluation of the Star Sea Continent:

"Rising from insignificance, wielding the sword to question the living; slaying demons, sweeping away fierce foes, a single sword cuts through chaos, eradicates familial ailments, creates an unparalleled golden age, venerated by all under the heavens, the eight desolations submit, this is the unparalleled Emperor through the ages..."

For this evaluation, she felt it was not exaggerated at all. In fact, from her perspective, it wasn’t comprehensive enough.

Otherwise, with her former glory and pride, why would she risk coming back to plead for forgiveness?

Wasn’t it because of Qi Ping’s character, which was worth following?

And with Qi Ping, it was truly possible to pursue the realm she yearned for, maybe even reaching higher wasn’t impossible.

Besides, in this realm war, as long as she kills enough of the Demon Race, there’s a chance to obtain the worldly fortune unseen ordinarily. Such things are comparable to any spiritual medicine treasure, and even a Void Refining Stage cultivator hardly gets such a Supreme Treasure.

So just for this point alone, it was worth her taking the risk once.

But everything still boiled down to Qi Ping indeed being worth pursuing; otherwise, her coming back was almost akin to seeking death.

Given Qi Ping’s current monstrous strength, just thinking about it made her legs tremble slightly.

Especially the recently displayed Great Dao Domain, which even Integration Stage cultivators can only possess, and now thinking about it still makes her scalp tingle.

Moreover, Ji Qingyue always felt that this Great Dao Domain might even be more terrifying than Baili Yun’s True Demon Realm. After all, that is an incredibly rare True Demon Realm cultivator!

"I hope this time I won’t make the wrong bet again!"

"What was once the number one of the Star Sea Continent was all vanity, but there’s no way I can let those juniors, Meng Tianqi and Baili Yun, surpass me, or I’ll have no place to put my face..."

Upon entering the Realm Battlefield, Ji Qingyue decided to unleash her full power for once. She couldn’t remember how many years it had been since she fought so desperately, to the point where she wasn’t even sure how strong her full blast would be!

...

Baili Yun and Meng Tianqi watched Ji Qingyue’s departing figure, their eyes still filled with profound meaning.

"Old Meng, how do you feel Ji Qingyue’s strength compares to yours now, who is stronger or weaker? I’m too strong now, can’t really tell..."

Baili Yun’s words seemed both curious and a bit like showing off.

Meng Tianqi couldn’t help but roll his eyes at Baili Yun again, realizing how he never noticed this guy was so irritating before?

However, he still answered honestly:

"She’s very strong! Initially, I thought I could steadily suppress her after my recent improvements, but just seeing her now, she gives me a very dangerous feeling, and I can’t determine the outcome..."

"Is she that strong?" Baili Yun said in surprise, "It seems we were able to drive her away back then because of the Star Emperor, otherwise, relying on us alone wouldn’t have been enough to make her back down..."

"Indeed!" Meng Tianqi nodded in agreement.

For this former strongest of the Star Sea Continent, he still held a trace of respect in his heart.

Ji Qingyue’s reputation was actually quite good, except for the last experience of agreeing to collude with the Celestial Dragon Continent. Before that, she indeed never bullied other cultivators due to her strength.

"Did you just plant the Demon Seed Restriction on her and find out what her physique is?" Meng Tianqi continued to ask.

"Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Body..." Baili Yun replied, his expression somewhat serious.

"What? Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Body?" Meng Tianqi’s eyes were instantly filled with shock, "No wonder, no wonder..."

No wonder Ji Qingyue’s influence was so strong, and no wonder Ji Qingyue had never been able to fully break through to the Integration Stage, all reasons lay in this Ten Thousand Laws Body.

Among the various powerful special physiques in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Body is definitely ranked highly.

This physique is naturally attuned to various Great Daos, and its comprehension in magic progresses swiftly.

However, it also has a drawback, that the overall strength is greatly limited by the world it resides in.

If the world it resides in is relatively weak, with insufficient Law strength, the difficulty of improving strength will increase significantly.

But conversely, if in a strong world, it’s truly the darling of nature, no wonder Fu Tuzi from the Celestial Dragon Continent promised Ji Qingyue she could join the Celestial Dragon Continent and completely integrate into that world, even she was tempted, let alone any ordinary person.

And the only mistake Fu Tuzi made this time was not genuinely willing to help her, because his ultimate goal was merely a dog-eat-dog scenario, which is why he didn’t want to make such a severe Heavenly Dao Oath, relying on the inevitable destruction of the Star Sea Continent as a result, hoping to pay less in the aftermath, otherwise, Ji Qingyue might have really fought desperately.
