Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao c1-1294

Pu , Ling Han instantly burst out with blood; his body even crackled explosively as his bones groaned, and even broke. The physique that he was so proud of actually couldn’t withstand the old woman’s stare!
As expected of a divine being—a divine being that could ignore even the small world’s rules!
Yi Shuang Shuang was numb all across the face. She muttered, “What sort of powerful being is this? Even breaking the small world’s rules, could it be a Genesis Tier powerhouse? God, this lady was fortunate enough to see a Genesis Tier powerhouse!”
This was truly invincible power—not to mention Ma Duo Bao personally arriving, even if the five great sects all descended and unleashed their strongest might, they would all probably be annihilated by a single move of this old woman.
“Won’t allow you to hurt Ling Han!” Hu Niu stepped forward in a rush, spreading her small hands to guard in front of Ling Han. She stared angrily at the old woman and emitted a shocking killing intent as a divine light glowed from her chest, emitting a supreme presence.
“The legacy’s power!” All the female generals looked sincerely devoted, and knelt down one after another, muttering something and looking at Hu Niu with a feverish gaze.
… Except for the old woman in cyan clothing. Smiling, she said, “As expected, Yi Yun’s legacy’s power was handed to you! Little girl, you’re the Milady of our Roc Palace, a supreme ruler in the future, how could you be restrained by a man? Allow me to eliminate this future trouble!”
“Don’t you dare!” Hu Niu turned and hugged Ling Han. “Ling Han is Niu’s, if you dare touch a single hair of his, Niu will, Niu will, Niu will kill herself!” She seemed to be aware that she couldn’t do anything about the old woman’s power, so she could only use her own life as a threat.
Ling Han snorted, put Hu Niu down, and said, “I have no enmity nor hatred with you, Senior, yet Senior insists on killing me. What sort of principle is that?”
“You’re crazy, this being is too powerful! Unless I completely recover, I won’t be her match at all!” Small Tower shouted inside his mind, its tone sounding terrified for the first time.
Being able to make Small Tower lose its calm, the power of this old woman could be imagined.
The old woman sneered, and said, “Brat, you’re quite daring. You do know that if I want to kill you, no one can stop it?”
“Won’t allow you to hurt Ling Han!” Hu Niu gesticulated with her hands and feet angrily.
“Senior’s strength is indeed far above this junior’s, but this junior’s strength being inferior doesn’t mean that he has no pride!” Ling Han was unyielding. “Senior can kill me, but can’t silence me!”
“Hahaha!” The old woman in cyan clothing laughed heartily.
“Supreme Elder, this brat has a very strong influence on Milady, it’s better to kill him,” a female general suggested.
“Yes, Milady is young, and doesn’t know any better, being most easily enchanted.”
“This person should be killed for his intentions!”
The old woman in cyan clothing waved her hand, and said, “It’s fine. When we return, we’ll never see this brat again anyway. Seeing that he has some backbone, we’ll spare his life.”
“Yes, Supreme Elder!” all the female generals replied sternly.
The old woman in cyan clothing looked at Hu Niu smilingly, and said, “Little girl, follow me back.”
“Not going, not going!” Hu Niu shook her head anxiously.
The old woman in cyan clothing sighed, and said, “Then the old woman can only kill that Ling Han or whatever!”
“No!” Hu Niu was anxious, pointing at the old woman’s nose, and said, “Didn’t you say that you won’t hurt Ling Han?”
“But you don’t listen, this old woman has no other way,” the old woman in cyan clothing said with a smile.
Hu Niu pouted, and after thinking over and over again, she finally nodded, and said, “Okay, Niu will comply with you!”
“Now that’s a good girl!” The old woman said with a smile. She’d lived for countless of years, so could she not handle a little girl?
Hu Niu’s gaze turned, and she said, “But Niu wants to bring Ling Han with her!”
Pu!
The old woman in cyan clothing instantly choked, almost coughing. Why was this little girl so hard to deal with? She said sternly, “No, this boy definitely cannot return with us!”
Hu Niu bawled and started to cause a fuss, but the old woman was unfazed.
“Don’t worry, you go back with them first, I’ll definitely find you!” Ling Han said. So what if it was a divine realm powerhouse? He would eventually cultivate to that level one day.
“You promise?” Hu Niu said miserably.
Ling Han nodded, and said extremely discreetly, “I promise!”
All the female generals looked at Ling Han with contempt. The brat didn’t know how powerful the force they belonged to was at all. Even if you cultivate till you’re a corpse, it’ll still be vastly above you.
It was impossible for him to tread in their territory in this lifetime. Don’t even imagine it!
“Fine!” Hu Niu agreed reluctantly, walking slowly towards the old woman in cyan clothing, and said with her head tilted, “Niu wants to bring some people, or else Niu will definitely be very disobedient!”
The old woman in cyan clothing laughed loudly, and said, “As long as it’s not this brat, anyone’s fine!”
Hu Niu was finally delighted, pointed at Helian Xun Xue and said, “Take this woman with no chest.” She paused momentarily, and pointed at the Lunar King, and said, “And this big charming girl, Niu would be worried!” Then she pointed at Yi Shuang Shuang, “And this small charming girl, Niu’s also worried about!”
Her jealousy erupted. Even Liu Yu Tong, Li Si Chan, and Zhu Xuan Er were called… including even Ling Jian Xue.
Ling Han’s expression was strange. Hu Niu truly planned on making him utterly alone! However, this force was definitely also a supreme existence in the divine realm, and being able to ascend into the divine realm and having Hu Niu’s care, it was actually a great opportunity for them all.
“Lord Niu Niu, bring Uncle Rabbit! Bring Uncle Rabbit!” The rabbit was extremely proactive. Now that Hu Niu became some Milady of the divine realm, her future prospects were amazing, so Uncle Rabbit obviously wanted to board this tailwind ship.
Hu Niu, however, snorted, and said, “You keep Ling Han company. Take good care of Ling Han, don’t let him get bored, much less get hurt, or else Niu will eat you!”
The rabbit bemoaned heaven and earth. What sort of sin did it commit for it to be abandoned…
Ling Han didn’t plan on convincing Hu Niu to change her mind. It wasn’t a bad idea to have the people by his side follow Hu Niu. FIrst, they could receive better cultivation resources and environment, and second, it was safer than being by his side.
… Except for the great enemy of Roc Palace that resulted in the original Milady’s death. However, seeing the old woman in cyan clothing and the others, Roc Palace should be an extremely powerful force with deep roots, or else even with their Milady dead, how could they not have been extinguished?
Ling Han nodded, letting out the people inside the Black Tower, and had them board the ship.
Chapter 855 - Departure

Hu Niu’s jealousy was extremely intense, for the women beside Ling Han were all taken away, and only a bunch of men was left with him—for example, the Rain Emperor, Mu Rong Qing, Feng Po Yun, the Rabbit, Rock Spirit. There was no fear of them turning him the other way.
The Young Milady’s words very effective—no matter whether they were willing or not, they had to board the ship!
Some people didn’t really mind, and were even delighted, but some people were reluctant to part, especially Ling Han’s parents, who had always had more partings than gatherings with their son, and now that they were leaving again, the
y were heartbroken.
Fortunately, their grandson was by their side, giving them something to place their hopes in, or else they would definitely think about their son constantly, their hair turning gray.
Zhu Xuan Er, Li Si Chan, and Liu Yu Tong were filled with tears. Helian Xun Xue was headstrong, but still revealed her reluctance.
The Lunar King shouted, “Why bring This King away too?! This King has nothing that’s unclear going on with this brat?”
“Yeah, yeah, this lady is as clear as ice and jade, having completely nothing to do with that brat!” Yi Shuang Shuang also protested. Although she wanted to return to the immortal realm, she wasn’t willing to do it in this way.
Hu Niu, however, snorted, and said, “Big fairy, little fairy, big and small fairy, Niu’s worried about all of them. Take them all away!”
After everyone boarded the ship, the divine ship flew up slowly.
“Ling Han, you definitely have to find Niu!” At the bow, Hu Niu waved her hand with all her strength.
“Definitely!” Ling Han said in a low voice. Soon, he’d charge into the immortal realm and definitely gather everyone, and he’d also make the people of Roc Palace have a whole new respect for him.
Hong , the divine ship blasted open a spatial fissure, and zoomed right in. After the ship’s stern also disappeared, the spatial fissure immediately disappeared as if the divine ship had never appeared at all.
A terrifying oppressive force surged as the Eye of Heavenly Dao appeared and blinked in the sky, blood dripping from it. The world also rained down blood as if lamenting for the Eye of Heavenly Dao.
The massive eye that represented the heaven and earth’s will stared at Ling Han as if wanting to kill him.
Ling Han stood with his hands behind his back, no inferior in his imposing manner.
The Eye of Heavenly Dao was indeed powerful. It was enough to kill him, but heaven and earth had its own rules—so as long as one didn’t defy the natural order, heaven and earth wouldn’t touch him. It was a rule that the Eye of Heavenly Dao also had to obey, or else, without rules, heaven and earth would also lose the meaning of its existence.
He worked for humanity and lived up to his conscience and the people of the world, so why should he fear the Eye of Heavenly Dao?
The Eye of Heavenly Dao blinked, and finally disappeared again.
“Damn, Seventh Sister’s been kidnapped, how do we explain to the boss?” The remaining seven Kings finally caught their breath, and complained incessantly.
Ling Han smiled at them, and said, “Thanks to everyone for rushing to the rescue. However, the Lunar King entering the divine realm 1 in advance might not be a bad thing. If you guys don’t try hard, maybe when you guys meet again, the Lunar King will hang you guys up and beat you!”
The seven Kings’ expression changed drastically—the Lunar King definitely would do such a thing!
No, no, they had to try hard to cultivate and increase the power of their divine sense, which was the main direction of cultivation at their level. Their cultivation couldn’t improve, but their divine sense could, so once they entered the divine realm and broke through to the God Tier, they’d welcome a period of improving by leaps and bounds.
The seven Kings took their leave. The Lunar King being brought to the divine realm was a great matter, and obviously had to be reported to Ma Duo Bao immediately.
After Ling Han sent them off, he returned to the imperial palace with Feng Po Yun and the Rain Emperor. Although the demon servants were completely annihilated, cleaning up the demonic Qi and rebuilding the desolate north was a very problematic matter.
Feng Po Yun was very bold and generous. Seeing that Ling Han didn’t know whom to call big brother 2 , so he simply decided to have the four of them become sworn brothers. The Rain Emperor and Mu Rong Qing gladly agreed, and now Feng Po Yun was obviously still the eldest, the Rain Emperor the second eldest, and Mu Rong Qing the third eldest, while Ling Han dropped a grade from 3rd to 4th, and became the youngest brother.
This made him quite gloomy—being the third had already been pitiful enough, but now he was reduced to being the fourth!
With nothing to do, he could only cultivate.
Ling Han and his brothers strived to become stronger. They’d seen great power—even the Eye of Heavenly Dao could only yield in front of it, deeply moving them and arousing a fierce fighting spirit within them.
They wanted to dictate their own destiny, and to do so, they needed the support of powerful strength.
Time went by quietly. Strangely, the Sea Race made no movements, and it was unknown whether they turned their nose up at the land or were waiting for something. Besides, although Ao Jian was powerful, he wasn’t powerful enough to rival Ma Duo Bao, not to mention the latter still had power of the nation’s blessing, which made him even more terrifying.
After half a year, Ling Han finally broke through to the Shattering Void Tier.
Hong, long, long , heaven and earth immediately reacted, with thunder clouds crowding together. Dazzling white lightning was flickering within as it was in the process of brewing a terrifying danger.
Treading into the Shattering Void Tier, one needed to pass the heavenly tribulation.
Such beings truly possessed the strength to threaten heaven and earth, so the latter would impose restrictions, and only when they pulled through the heavenly tribulation would they truly be able to become Shattering Void Tier existences. Otherwise, there was only one word for what would await them—death!
This also proved the bearing of the Shattering Void Tier—even heaven and earth would interfere.
Ling Han stood proudly between heaven and earth, enduring the strikes of the heavenly tribulation. The heavenly tribulation became ninth heaven’s divine thunder, separate from the five elements, its power infinite.
Hong, long, long , the divine thunder was extremely terrifying; its power reached Shattering Void Tier twenty stars!
Usually, what battle prowess could one have, having just broken through to the Shattering Void Tier? Barely having one star was already praiseworthy, and obviously one couldn’t rival Shattering Void Tier two stars. Fortunately, the heavenly tribulation continued for a limited amount of time—half a day. Otherwise, if the heavenly tribulation had to be defeated to pass it, there’d probably only be 1 in 10,000 of the Shattering Void Tiers remaining in the world.
Pa, pa, pa, pa, the divine thunder struck Ling Han’s body, yet it was like small rain sweeping by, having no effect at all.
The instant Ling Han set foot in the Shattering Void Tier, his physique also surpassed tenth-tier rare metal, reaching the level of divine metal. So, what threat could the bombardment of such divine thunder possibly pose to him?
Ling Han instead relaxed his body and mind, absorbing the power of the heavenly tribulation to improve his body of lightning.
His body of lightning was only at the level of a novice, and to attain great mastery, the power of lightning needed not only had to be stronger, but also purer, so it definitely wasn’t achievable by refining normal lightning.
The heavenly tribulation definitely could be used—it was known as divine thunder, after all.
Invigorating.
Ling Han absorbed the power of thunder while the Thunderclap Ninth Heaven circulated within his body, changing his body and advancing towards great mastery.
“Truly envious, our youngest brother is the first to advance to the Shattering Void Tier, yet I’m still a sliver away from Heaven Tier!” Mu Rong Qing said and shook his head, feeling happy for Ling Han, and at the same time feeling immense pressure.
His cultivation speed was not slow already, but it definitely couldn’t compare with Ling Han’s.
The Rain Emperor smiled, and said, “Our youngest brother is a true genius, not only having exceptional martial arts talent, but even being a master at alchemy and formations. You don’t have to be envious, just cultivate diligently.”
Feng Po Yun also nodded repeatedly, and
said, “Our youngest brother’s physique is truly terrifying, not only remaining unharmed under the bombardment of divine thunder, but also transforming it for his use!”
“Report!” A soldier ran over, knelt down, and said, “Report to the three kings, the special ambassador of Purple Moon Emperor’s Court requests a meeting!”
Chapter 856 - Good News and Bad News

Ling Han showered in the divine thunder, his lanky figure emitting divine light as if he were a divine being.
To him, the heavenly tribulation was simply going through the motions, for his formidable physique allowed him to ignore such bombardments—it was more like giving him a massage.
His lightning body was advancing into great mastery, approaching great perfection, at least in the range of humanity. Perhaps, after arriving at the divine realm, an upper limit would be opened, who knew?
After half a day, he easily passed the heavenly tribulation, and his lightning body also reached great mastery.
“Congrats, congrats, finally advancing to the Shattering Void Tier, barely breaking away from the level of mortals,” Small Tower said within his consciousness.
Ling Han was shocked, and said, “You actually know how to say congrats? Your character changed?”
Small Tower snorted, and said, “Should I sent out a divine wave to exterminate you?”
Ling Han laughed loudly, and said, “That’s more like you, I believe it!”
Small Tower couldn’t help but be gloomy. Did it speak that harshly usually?
“However, the Shattering Void Tier is only breaking away from the mortal level? And barely? Ling Han asked thoughtlessly. Wasn’t the Flower Blossom Tier surpassing the level of mortals?
Small Tower snorted, acting arrogant before saying, “Under normal circumstances, Shattering Void Tier can shatter the void and set foot in the divine realm. This is the boundary between divine and mortal, so only having walked to this step could one qualify to claim to have broken away from being mortal.”
Ling Han gave an oh—he finally crossed into a new tier. It surpassed his experience in the previous life, and he had to fathom the road ahead on his own from now, no longer having any experience to draw from.
