Chapter 578 - 479: The Second Stage of the Power Seal (First Update)
"In that case, let's enter the Celestial Demon Domain!"
Wu Zetian said earnestly.
For more than a thousand years, Emperor Gaozong of Tang has always used his body to seal the Celestial Demon Eye.
Wu Zetian has also been thinking about whether she could enter the Celestial Demon Domain to research the celestial demons, finding their weaknesses, which might allow Emperor Gaozong to regain his freedom.
However, for over a thousand years, there has been no way to enter the Celestial Demon Domain.
Now, Yang Tian used a strand of his soul to adhere to Wu Yue, perhaps allowing him to follow Wu Yue into the Celestial Demon Domain.
"Hmm."
Yang Tian nodded.
Wu Tiandu wants to wash away Wu Yue's humanity with her life; they must act quickly to save Wu Yue.
At this moment, Yang Tian and Wu Zetian, taking Wu Daba with them, returned to the imperial palace.
"What? You want to enter the Celestial Demon Domain?"
The Third Prince, Li Xian, was shocked when he heard Yang Tian and Wu Zetian intended to enter the Celestial Demon Domain.
"My child, during the period while I and Yang Tian are in the Celestial Demon Domain, all affairs in the Great Tang will be managed by you. If anything happens to us, you will ascend the throne and find a way to seal the Celestial Demon Eye."
Wu Zetian said calmly.
"But Mother, this is absolutely unacceptable! The Celestial Demon Domain is extremely dangerous and unpredictable. Once you enter, you might either die or be transformed into a celestial demon. Let me handle such matters."
Li Xian knelt down in the palace with a snap.
Wu Zetian glanced at Yang Tian, saying calmly, "This matter concerns the future of the Great Tang, so I will naturally handle it myself. Your father instructed me when he passed that I should protect the people of the Great Tang. Now, with the rare opportunity to enter the Celestial Demon Domain, I must take this responsibility. We will talk about it when I return!"
Afterward, Wu Zetian waved her hand, signaling Li Xian to withdraw.
"Brother Yang, please, no matter what, protect my mother!"
Seeing Wu Zetian's determination, Li Xian had to say something to Yang Tian.
"Rest assured, Brother Li, with me, Yang Tian, there, nothing will happen to Mistress!"
Yang Tian said earnestly.
"That's good, that's good..."
Although Li Xian said this, his face was still filled with worry.
But under Wu Zetian's authoritative gaze, Li Xian obediently withdrew.
"Mistress, wait a moment..."
Yang Tian said and then left the palace, heading straight for his residence. Upon seeing Ling Ying, he directly said, "Ling Ying, I am going into the Celestial Demon Domain with Wu Zetian, stay here and cultivate well."
"You're going into the Celestial Demon Domain? Then I must go with you!"
Ling Ying quickly said.
"No, it's too dangerous inside!"
Yang Tian shook his head.
"No, I must follow you. Your current identity is my consort. If something happens to you, I have no reason to live anymore. Leaving me here is definitely not safe, I will follow you no matter what!"
Ling Ying said resolutely.
Yang Tian couldn't convince Ling Ying at the moment and, upon thinking it over, found her reasoning valid.
He nodded, "Alright, you come with me."
"Great!"
Ling Ying felt a wave of relief in her heart.
She was determined to follow Yang Tian for another reason, which was her fear that something might happen between Yang Tian and Wu Zetian in the Celestial Demon Domain.
After all, Yang Tian was young and passionate, and Wu Zetian was lonely.
"Let's go find Wu Zetian now."
At this moment, Yang Tian took Ling Ying to find Wu Zetian.
"She wants to come too?"
Wu Zetian frowned slightly, showing some displeasure in her eyes, but she didn't say anything, just urged Yang Tian to enter the Celestial Demon Domain.
Soon, accompanied by Li Xian, Yang Tian and his group arrived at that wooden house.
Opening the Celestial Demon Eye, the three of them leaped into the void.
Bang!
A flame ignited in Yang Tian's hand.
He pushed the flame three feet above his head, forming a Soul Lamp.
Long before Wu Yue was absorbed, Yang Tian had adhered a part of his soul to her. At this moment, using his Divine Sense, he could sense the thought waves coming from that soul part.
"Follow me!"
Yang Tian waved his hand.
A flame enveloped him.
Then, he led Wu Zetian and Ling Ying into the void.
On this flight, it was extremely silent, and the three of them could only hear each other's heartbeat, nothing else.
Not knowing how long they had flown, Ling Ying suddenly spoke weakly, "Brother Yang, I feel dizzy..."
Yang Tian turned back, his expression darkening.
He saw Ling Ying's face was pale, covered in cold sweat.
Not only Ling Ying, but even Wu Zetian beside her was also deathly pale, her body shaking unsteadily.
"Let's rest here for a while!"
Yang Tian stopped and, using his Divine Sense, opened the Weed Ring, taking out some Gu Spring Water for the two women to drink. He then used his Spiritual Space to create a narrow cave in the void.
With that, it wasn't so deathly silent.
After doing all this, Yang Tian hurriedly checked on Ling Ying and Wu Zetian, finding that they were merely exhausted.
"Brother Yang, I am very tired, let me rest for a bit..."
Ling Ying said and then fell into a deep sleep.
Meanwhile, Wu Zetian sat there, simultaneously cultivating and resting.
All around was utterly silent.
Yang Tian seized the time to continue cultivating the Power Seal.
The first level of the Power Seal had been mastered, and all the Nine Rings of Years on it had been unlocked. Yang Tian pondered whether he could cultivate the second level of the Power Seal.
So Yang Tian opened the Jade Slip left for him by Emperor Gaozong.
Whoosh!
As he opened the Jade Slip, streams of knowledge rushed into Yang Tian's mind.
There was a lot of content inside, but at that moment, Yang Tian couldn't find anything related to the second level of the Power Seal.
Not knowing how long had passed, suddenly, an excited voice came from the front where Wu Zetian was: "Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty? Is Master back?"
Yang Tian immediately opened his eyes, only to see Wu Zetian staring passionately at him.
He searched around but found no trace of Emperor Gaozong.
While he was puzzled, Wu Zetian suddenly dashed into his arms, hugging him tightly, making Yang Tian frown: "Could it be, Mistress thinks I am Master?"
"Your Majesty, I miss you so much!"
Wu Zetian said with a tender voice.
Yang Tian knew what was about to happen.
His heart grew more anxious; he wanted to tell Wu Zetian that he was not the Emperor, but he found himself unable to move or speak.
At this moment, Wu Zetian mistook Yang Tian for Emperor Gaozong.
Bang!
A strong Spiritual Breath burst out from Yang Tian's body, transforming into a Power Seal that tightly bound both Yang Tian and Wu Zetian.
At this moment, Wu Zetian in his arms had stopped.
In an instant, Yang Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty..."
A tender voice came once more, and Wu Zetian kissed Yang Tian's lips. Quickly, a vigorous Spiritual Breath surged from Wu Zetian's mouth into him.
The next second, the Power Seal pressed a seal onto his body.
Seeing this seal, Yang Tian's face was astounded: "Wait a minute, is this the second level of the Power Seal?"
Nobody answered Yang Tian.
At this moment, Wu Zetian suddenly fainted, startling Yang Tian. He wanted to check on Wu Zetian, but just then, Emperor Gaozong's voice came from the Jade Slip: "Disciple, I believe you have already cultivated the second level of the Power Seal, right? I am an awareness your Master left before his passing, intended to guide you and Wu Mei to cultivate the Power Seal together. Now that you have cultivated the second level of the Power Seal with Wu Mei, it won't be long before I guide you to cultivate the third level of the Seal. At that time, you must engage in a genuine romantic relationship with Wu Mei..."
"What?! To cultivate the third level of the Power Seal, I have to engage in a genuine romantic relationship?"
