80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 67 - Opportunity for a Breakthrough



Chapter 67: Opportunity for a Breakthrough

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Her duty as a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect was the reason why she gave pointers to the many Martial Sages in the world with sufficient potential to make a breakthrough into the Human God Realm.

In total, she gave pointers to 30 cultivators.

The members of the Heavenly Dao Sect have always had a special position in the world since ancient times. They were able to control a portion of the Heavenly Dao’s might.

Then, they could use the Heavenly Dao either for themselves or to guide others.

30 paper cranes flew out.

In less than half a day, they brought back 30 answers.

Miss Hong opened them one by one.

The first answer was…

“After being banished to the Cold Palace and living such a tough life for decades, his heart must be twisted by now and he must be resentful. The best way to repay him would be to overthrow the current Yuhua God Dynasty and let him ascend to the throne to become the Emperor…”

“Then, he would be able to take his revenge and kill his enemies to end his resentment.”

Miss Hong frowned and muttered, ‘As expected of a demonic cultivator…’

‘If I were to overthrow the current Yuhua God Dynasty, wouldn’t that be akin to rebuilding a new dynasty? The world would be in chaos and I would no longer be able to suppress those people from the previous era. Wouldn’t that be what they want to happen?’

If she really did that, she would become the greatest sinner of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

The second answer was…

“Heal his body and help him ascend to the throne of the Yuhua God Dynasty…”

Miss Hong pondered silently.

‘This was not much different from the first answer.’

The third answer…

The fourth answer…

Miss Hong read through 29 answers in a row.

She received a myriad of answers, but none of them satisfied her.

Until the 30th answer came.

It was written by Monk Qingyun of the Dalin Temple in the Jiangnan area.

‘Overthrowing the Yuhua God Dynasty and helping the dethroned Crown Prince ascend to the throne as the Emperor is unrealistic. He is not the only one inside that cold palace. The Human God of the Yuhua God Dynasty is with him…’

‘His might is boundless and terrifying. If we were to go against him, it would end up in mutual destruction. Because of this, I suggest that we should compromise without lowering the quality of the repayment.’

Miss Hong’s interest was piqued.

In what way could they compromise?

‘The Yuhua God Dynasty is the number one God Dynasty in the contemporary world. One could say that it’s also doing very well nowadays. They even have an army filled with nothing but Martial Sages. There were even some that had already arrived at the Human God Realm…

‘Therefore, overthrowing the Yuhua God Dynasty just isn’t possible.’

‘In that case, why not we choose a small country and shock the world by bringing the dethroned Crown Prince there? Let him ascend to the throne of that small country. Miss Hong shall be his backer and he will be able to fulfill his dreams of overseeing a nation…’

Monk Qingyun’s suggestion rekindled the light within Miss Hong’s eyes.

She was surprised!

The idea was great

The Yuhua God Dynasty’s territory was too vast.

Once war broke out and the world fell into chaos, it would definitely suffer a catastrophe.

But she was the reason why the dethroned Crown Prince was stripped of his position.

If she wanted to return the position of the Emperor to him—she could only use a small country outside of the Yuhua God Dynasty as a compromise.

‘The question is—which country is suitable?’ Miss Hong mumbled.

Thump, thump, thump!

At this moment, a maid hurriedly barged into the room as she said anxiously. “Holy Maiden! His Majesty has issued a decree and he has betrothed you to his Royal Highness, the Crown Prince…”

“The wedding is in three months…”

“His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince is right outside. ”

“He wants to barge in here!”

Miss Hong was stunned.

Her figure froze on the spot.

Seeing this, the maid misunderstood. “Holy Maiden, please don’t be sad. His Majesty is old and muddled. His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, is a good-for-nothing. The people of our Great Yan Dynasty won’t agree to this arrangement…”

Miss Hong smiled.

She held the answer given by Monk Qingyun and replied softly, “Someone’s really giving me a pillow when I was feeling sleepy!”

The maid looked at Miss Hong in confusion. She did not understand what the latter meant.

“Go and ask the Crown Prince to go back. At the same time, ask him to enjoy the small amount of nobility that he has. If he dares to forcefully barge in here, he will die!”

Miss Hong waved her hand.

She was too lazy to pay attention to this Crown Prince who had always coveted her beauty.

The maid immediately retreated.

Miss Hong silently sent out another batch of 30 paper cranes.

Only one sentence was in them.

“Come to the Great Yan Dynasty and do something for me!”

She wanted to use the entire Great Yan Dynasty to repay her debt of gratitude.

Yuhua God Dynasty, Cold Palace.

Lin Jiufeng’s life remained peaceful as ever.

His routine didn’t change that month in the days that passed.

When he woke up from his cultivation in the morning, he would enter the underground palace and undo the seal of that demon’s den. Then, he would awaken the Demon Gods and defeat them one by one.

Afterwards, he would sign in and take the valuable treasures, cultivation techniques, and other items as his reward.

When this was all done and over, he would seal the demon’s den once more and return to the Cold Palace.

Then, he would quietly ponder his own questions in regards to cultivation.

Over this period of time, Lin Jiufeng’s cultivation base advanced by leaps and bounds.

He had already surpassed the Ultimate Human stage and entered the Nirvana stage.

The next step after Nirvana was a breakthrough into the next realm.

This wasn’t difficult for Lin Jiufeng.

As he continued to become even stronger, the pressure he was exerting on the demons in the demon’s den beneath the underground palace also became stronger. Today, Lin Jiufeng visited that demon’s den as usual, but it was unusually quiet.

More than ten demons would usually rush up to him at the same time, but now…

There was no movement inside the bottomless demon’s den at all.

He felt not an ounce of danger.

Such peace was truly ironic when the place was called ‘demon’s den’.

But this also showed the torture that the demons had experienced in these past few months.

They were now less arrogant than when the demon’s den was first discovered.

When the seal was opened today, the demons immediately trembled and hid.

They didn’t dare to make a sound.

They were afraid that Lin Jiufeng would find them.

The faith of those captured by Lin Jiufeng was a guaranteed beating.

Then, when he was done and over with them, he would casually throw them back into the demon’s den like nothing.

Being treated like this—it was too shameful!

They had no idea that Lin Jiufeng could earn rewards by beating them up.

As a result, they all agreed that Lin Jiufeng was purposely doing this to humiliate them.

He would humiliate them once, and the next time he visited, he would choose a different demon so that none of them would miss out on receiving his special ‘treatment’.

He was simply too despicable.

The demons and the Demon Gods alike burned with fury.

Today, Lin Jiufeng stood on top of the demon’s den after opening the seal. He realized that there was no movement whatsoever inside. Raising his arm, he reached out and knocked on the entrance.

“Don’t even try to play dead. One of you shall come out and fight me. Once we’re done, I’ll leave you lot alone as usual,” Lin Jiufeng shouted.

He didn’t want to go down with his real body for now.

It would be too troublesome.

Who knew how many Demon Gods were down there?

It was better to play it safe.

It wouldn’t be too late for him to go down there after his breakthrough into the next realm.

The demon’s den was a location of boundless space.

Hundreds of demons and the few Demon Gods inside were already awake.

Without exception, they were all defeated by Lin Jiufeng.

Then, they were thrown back down, losing all of their faces in the process.

Hearing Lin Jiufeng’s words, they were furious.

“I’ll go up there and see what he’s like. He’s simply going too far. In the previous era, we were the leaders of our own demonic sects. Who in the world dared to humiliate us like this?” A Demon God who had just woken up today was immediately infuriated by what he had heard.

His lungs were about to explode from anger as he flew up.

Boom!

His demonic energy was powerful and vast.

Although he was in a weakened state after being sealed for so long, his strength was still not something that those ordinary demons could compare to.

“Brat, stop being so arrogant. Your Demon God Grandpa shall come and kill you now.”

The Demon God let out a long roar.

His aura surged as he raised his hand and a resplendent blade of light manifested.

He attacked from below, aiming to kill Lin Jiufeng in one blow.

Seeing his arrogant look, Lin Jiufeng shook his head. “You’re still too na?ve.”

He pressed down with one hand.

Surging True Qi, a vast Dao aura, and the four great immortal treasures in his body combined their strength altogether.

Boom!

The Demon Suppression Record erupted.

An extremely terrifying black talisman condensed and smashed onto the Demon God’s body with a bang.

Pu!

In a blink of an eye, the Demon God was sent crashing onto the bottom of the demon’s den.

The other Demon Gods couldn’t help but sympathize with him.

This was also the manner of their defeat.

Lin Jiufeng sealed the demon’s den in satisfaction as he signed in.

[Sign-In successful. Received Divine Grade Grotto-heaven.]

When Lin Jiufeng saw what he received, his eyes lit up.

He couldn’t help but utter in surprise. “The opportunity for my breakthrough is finally here.”
