Xia Tianming gritted his teeth, and when he thought of that figure, his eyes almost spewed fire.

Xia Donghai looked at him coldly, gesturing him to continue speaking.

"Seven days later, the ancestors will compete for the Void Cauldron. Once it's taken away, I will challenge him again. Without the Void Cauldron, I can easily kill him!"

"Not bad, you are not hopelessly stupid." Xia Donghai nodded, then waved his hand, and three black spheres imbued with terrifying power appeared in front of Xia Tianming.

On these three spheres, Xia Tianming felt an extreme terror, a terror that could even threaten his life.

He widened his eyes in horror, looking at Xia Donghai.

"These are Celestial Thunder Bombs; it took me five thousand years to condense just three of them." Xia Donghai said, expressionless.

"Each one's power is no less than my full-force strike. To prevent any mishaps, keep these safe."

"Thank you, Father! I will not disappoint you and will surely reclaim the position of Emperor Xia!"

Getting the Celestial Thunder Bombs made Xia Tianming burst with joy. With these, Xia Tianming was surely doomed!

Xia Tianming understood his father's intention and quickly stored away the three Celestial Thunder Bombs, then bowed deeply three times before Xia Donghai.

"Go now and don't let me down again." Xia Donghai massaged his temples, then waved his hand dismissively.

Xia Tianming nodded quickly, then darted off, vanishing from sight.

"Twice he retraced the emperor's path, breakthrough from a mortal body to Earth Tier Martial Sovereign in fifty years, and also obtained a Divine Artifact... Could it be that my choice was wrong?"

After Xia Tianming left, Xia Donghai stared into the distance, speaking softly.

In the Dragon Hall, the past Xia Emperors of the Xia Family were also quietly preparing for the battle in seven days.

During this time, they chose not to enhance their strength but actively studied the combat traits of other Xia Emperors, seeking ways to counter them.

The appearance of Xia Tianming and the Void Cauldron suddenly energized the deathly dull Great Xia Empire.

Everyone had their own plans, advancing towards their goals.

...

With a top-grade talent, in a Dynasty or Sacred Land, you would be the focus of cultivation.

But before the Empire, a top-grade talent was merely ordinary.

They witnessed Lingxiao Pavilion's eleven Martial Sovereigns besieging Xia Tianming, saw the life-and-death battle between Xia Tianming and Xia Tianming, and even the world-shaking power of the Divine Artifact Void Cauldron.

Yet these did not allow Xia Feng to break through to Martial Sovereign within two to three million years.

The Great Dao Rules became profoundly mysterious before him, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't grasp them.

In contrast, with the help of the Void Domain, Xia Tianming's realm advanced rapidly in two million years, breaking through to Earth Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign!

Although Xia Feng was envious, he knew that artifacts could not be envied, and it was all a matter of personal fortune and destiny.

With a helpless sigh, he still kept his head down, continuing to condense Great Dao Rules at a snail's pace.

In the fortieth thousand year, Xia Feng's eyes lit up, as he finally comprehended all the rules of the Thunder Element Great Dao.

After daybreak, giant and awe-inspiring lightning gathered above Mist Beast Mountain, striking for a whole day and night.

Some Tier Nine Sacred Beasts in Mist Beast Mountain, seeing the giant lightning in the sky, couldn't help but kneel and tremble.

In their view, a Sacred Beast must have broken through to the realm of Emperor Beast. Such an existence would undoubtedly be the overlord of Mist Beast Mountain.

The spiritual wisdom of these Sacred Beasts allowed them to immediately choose submission, hoping this being wouldn't slaughter them.

But Xia Feng ignored them and continued his cultivation.

Finally, seventy thousand years passed by.

On the early morning of the seventh day, Xia Tianming and Xia Feng woke up.

At this time, all the gloom in Xia Tianming's eyes had dissipated, and he exuded a peerless confidence and arrogance!

Everything he lost in the past had now returned.

Xia Tianming took a deep breath, releasing the aura of a Celestial Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign, causing constant buzzing among the Sacred Beasts of Mist Mountain, making them kneel and tremble in fear.

They didn't understand what happened in Mist Beast Mountain that, after one Emperor Beast's breakthrough, there's now another Tier Nine Emperor Beast!

Some timid Sacred Beasts trembled so much they nearly lost control of themselves.

In contrast, Xia Feng's talent in the Martial Sovereign Realm was indeed too mediocre. In seventy thousand years, he had only broken through to the Yellow Tier Second Layer Martial Sovereign.

Looking at the aura on his grandfather, then at himself, Xia Feng couldn't stop sighing.

"Is there really a need to be so disappointed? You've broken through to Martial Sovereign, far stronger than before." Xia Tianming comforted him.

"That depends on whom you compare to. Normally, I think my cultivation speed is quite fast, but Grandpa, you went from Earth Tier First Layer Martial Sovereign to Celestial Tier Ninth Layer in seventy thousand years, while I'm still at Yellow Tier Second Layer..."

Xia Feng was teary-eyed, truly realizing there's no harm without comparison. After obtaining the Dream Realm Pearl, he never felt so inadequate.

"You rascal." Xia Tianming couldn't help but laugh and cry, lightly slapping the back of Xia Feng's head.

"Everyone has their own fortune. The reason your grandpa broke through so quickly is mainly due to the Void Cauldron's domain and your Dream Realm Cultivation. Without you, what could I have broken through in seven days?"

"Don't just look at the seventy thousand years in the Dream Realm. Only seven days passed in the real world. Breaking from Half-Emperor to Yellow Tier Second Layer Martial Sovereign in seven days... I dare say even those with Innate Divine Bodies in the Divine Domain would be alarmed upon meeting you!"

Mentioning Dream Realm Cultivation, Xia Tianming couldn't help but show a stunned expression.

Seven days equaling seventy thousand years—it was truly terrifying.

"Grandpa, should we quit while we're ahead? If you keep praising, I'll get embarrassed."

Seeing his grandpa blowing his whiskers and glaring, Xia Feng chuckled awkwardly.

Yeah, he only compared his cultivation speed with his grandpa's, but the Dream Realm Pearl's cultivation was truly his greatest stroke of Heaven-defying luck.

"Time is about up, we should get going." Xia Tianming took a deep breath, clenching both fists with absolute confidence on his face.

As a Celestial Tier Ninth Layer Martial Sovereign, plus the Void Cauldron, even if the Ten Great Xia Emperors all attacked together, he was confident he could emerge unscathed!

The two exchanged no further words, turning into meteors and rising from Mist Beast Mountain.

The Sacred Beasts of Mist Longevity Mountain only dared to lift their heads after feeling the disappearance of these two auras, first confused, then sighing in relief.

It seemed they were just passing Emperor Beasts—as long as it had nothing to do with them, it was fine. Who would dare provoke such beings?
