Guanghan Empress’s Conjecture_4 Chapter 637: Chapter 248: Han Li’s Strength!
Taking Turns to be Emperor of Heaven, This Year it Comes to My House!
Heavenly Court!
Guanghan Empress’s Conjecture_4 As for those forces that were influenced by Chengsheng Mountain and consequently declined, Han Li couldn’t concern himself with that.
Competition is always like this, a life-and-death struggle, whether it be in the Cultivation Realm or any other world.
Only the intervention of the most powerful forces, establishing rules and striking at those who don’t follow them, can ensure that the majority of forces obediently abide by the rules.
With a sigh, Han Li’s figure vanished from the summit of Chengdao Peak, entering the ninth level of the Time-Sky Tower, where a figure immediately pounced on him.
Faced with Long Yue’s invitation to discuss the Dao, Han Li naturally wouldn’t refuse and embarked on a hearty and invigorating exchange of Daoist knowledge with her.
In Qianyuan Divine Province, above the nine heavens,
a graceful and peerless figure stood tall, shrouded in endless celestial light that obscured everything, disturbing the celestial designs, causality, time, and destiny here…
“Ambitions are grand,” the flawless, peerless figure suddenly spoke.
Following her gaze, it became clear that she was looking towards Chengsheng Mountain, directly at Han Li at the pinnacle of Chengdao Peak, even clearly hearing Han Li’s mutterings.
If Han Li knew someone was secretly observing him, he would be utterly shocked.
According to Han Li’s speculations, the Yuankun Domain was likely to be a prison, cut off by Immortal Kings or even Immortal Emperors, for some sort of scheme.
Such great beings couldn’t possibly spy on the entire Yuankun Domain all the time; otherwise, there wouldn’t be a calamity breaking out only once every era.
In the Endless Yuankun Domain, the most powerful beings of the Ancient Era were only True Immortals, and in this era the strongest were only at the Heaven Imperial Realm’s utmost summit.
Even with the aid of True Immortal weapons, it wasn’t possible to silently observe him without Han Li noticing anything amiss.
Chengsheng Mountain possessed three True Immortal weapons, one of which was the Humanity Sword, comparable to True Immortal weapons.
Among them, the Emperor Flag was a top-tier True Immortal weapon, particularly adept at concealing celestial designs.
If someone were spying, the Emperor Flag would detect it immediately and notify Han Li.
However, at this moment, the figure above the nine heavens was clearly spying on him, but the Emperor Flag had no inkling of it.
“This Emperor is curious to see if you can achieve it,” she declared.
This flawless, unparalleled figure was the Guanghan Empress.
She spoke again, yet no one could hear her words.
Thirty years ago, the Guanghan Empress was resting within the Guanghan Immortal Palace of Guanghan Heaven when she suddenly sensed a disturbance in her Red-Luan Star.
After divining, she learned of part of the future.
Therefore, the Guanghan Empress sent a strand of her Primordial Spirit down to the Yuankun Domain, born in Lanyu Divine Province, intending to personally observe her future companion and see if he was qualified.
If he was worthy, she would follow the future and lend some help to accelerate his growth so they could advance together; if not, the Guanghan Empress wouldn’t resort to killing him, but would simply leave.
As a fragment of an Immortal Emperor’s spirit, she was born a Heavenly Immortal, and upon reaching adulthood she automatically became a True Immortal; she is now a supreme True Immortal.
In the first year of her birth in the Endless Yuankun Domain, the Guanghan Empress found Han Li and has since been quietly observing him.
Even with True Immortal weapons in his possession, Han Li couldn’t obstruct her scrutiny or sense anything at all.
With just a casual application of a Secret Technique, she could shield herself from Han Li and those True Immortal weapons, rendering herself invisible to them.
Over these thirty years, the Guanghan Empress has seen everything about Han Li.
Indifferent to Han Li’s romantic exploits, the Guanghan Empress remained detached; having lived for countless years and being an Immortal Emperor since the former dynasty, Han Li’s behaviour couldn’t sway her in the slightest.
Yet, the Guanghan Empress was also curious; what was Han Li’s origin?
She could clearly see that in the past thirty years, Han Li rarely cultivated, spending years fighting frequently within the Time-Sky Tower.
Strangely enough, Han Li’s cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds.
As time passed, he gradually mastered more powerful martial techniques and Secret Techniques, and even increased his proficiency in the Four Arts of Cultivation.
The Guanghan Empress also felt that Han Li might truly be the reincarnation of an ancient immortal, with an extremely ancient origin, whose pinnacle was definitely not that of any minor Immortal Lord or Immortal King.
Han Li must have been at least an Emperor of Heaven level powerhouse in the past, and it was even possible that he was a fourth-step powerhouse.
Why did the Guanghan Empress think so?
Because she had divined Han Li’s fate with her Immortal Emperor true self and could only see his past hundred lifetimes, unable to divine anything beyond that, as it was blocked off.
When divining his future, she saw that Han Li’s destiny was closely intertwined with hers, and she was his Dao Companion.
From the farthest future she could divine, Han Li would at least be an unrivaled powerhouse in the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Beyond that, she could no longer divine, not even as an Empress, leading the Guanghan Empress to speculate that it involved the fourth step.
As an Immortal Empress, she could see through the past and future of all beings at a glance, and no secret could be hidden from an Immortal Empress.
The Guanghan Empress had divined that, with her strength, she was actually incapable of slaying Han Li, even though he was merely a Quasi Emperor at the moment.
No matter what method she used, she couldn’t eliminate Han Li.
Even if she erased Han Li from all timelines, he would reappear and then grow to become an unrivaled Immortal Emperor.
This was an unstoppable great trend!
Therefore, the Guanghan Empress felt that Han Li could possibly be a fourth-step being.
Only those who had transcended the Immortal Emperor Realm, transcended the third step, and stepped into the fourth step had such tremendous power.
Thus, the Guanghan Empress made a decision.
Her true self took action, using Great Divine Power and mana to conceal Han Li; from now on, even ordinary Immortal Emperors would not be able to spy on Han Li’s fate.
With her strength, there were very few in the Taichu Realm who could break her isolation, and they would need an important medium.
Moreover, as soon as someone tried to divinate Han Li’s fate, the Guanghan Empress would know instantly.
The Guanghan Empress did this, of course, to step into the fourth step.
From the future scenes, it could be seen that she was Han Li’s true Dao Companion, below whom were all Han Li’s cherished wives and concubines in status.
If Han Li were to return to the fourth step in the future, then it was very likely that she could also break through with Han Li’s help.
Another reason was to guard against other Immortal Emperors, to prevent them from discovering Han Li prematurely and making a move against him.
Even though the Guanghan Empress knew that all methods would not kill Han Li, she was still somewhat worried.
The behind-the-scenes mastermind of the Yuankun Domain was an Immortal Emperor, or rather, an Emperor of Heaven, a former Emperor of the previous court.
The Guanghan Empress had clashed with the former Emperor of Heaven during the battle when the Old Heavenly Court fell, being slightly inferior.
But after so many years, she now believed herself to be no less than the former Emperor of Heaven.
The Guanghan Empress worried that the former Emperor of Heaven’s schemes might involve Han Li.
Even though Han Li could resolve them, there would still be some twists and turns.
As Han Li’s future Dao Companion, she felt it was her duty to assist him.
With her protection, Han Li’s future could be free of worries, and he could grow smoothly and unimpeded.
Even if the former Emperor of Heaven noticed something amiss, without knowing the importance of Han Li, would he dare to battle her?
The former Emperor of Heaven’s secret plotting within the Yuankun Domain could be deemed very covert, yet it could not be concealed from other Immortal Emperors and the current Emperor of Heaven naturally knew as well, but no one acted.
The current situation in the Heavenly Court was also in a state of balance.
The Emperor of Heaven wanted to completely eliminate the former Emperor to eliminate future troubles, but he could not find his whereabouts, even through the Yuankun Domain.
Moreover, there were few Immortal Emperors willing to obey the command of the Emperor of Heaven, who also did not dare to engage in a fight to the death with the former Emperor, otherwise he could very well become the new former Emperor of Heaven.
Of course, the former Emperor of Heaven did not dare to show himself openly, or else many Immortal Emperors would still target him.
If he stayed hidden, everyone would turn a blind eye.
