CHAPTER 709: 162, WILL OF THE LORD OF THE OLD DAYS

Qingdu’s sky, the towering warship floated silently in midair.

Inside the depths of the warship’s hall.

"Prince Xia, was that just now the Ultimate Path?"

The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official, wearing a golden mask, looked at Lin Yue with interest, "Truly unbelievable, although that Demon Saint wasn’t at a defying level, their power was still considerable. Most princes and princesses would have to fight seriously to suppress him, yet Your Highness hasn’t even Harmonized, and your sheer strength alone is this astonishing. What if you Harmonize?"

"The prerequisite is being able to Harmonize."

Lin Yue sat in front of the desk, slowly turning the pages of a tome, sensing its profound meaning as he spoke casually, "The Crown Prince has you Heavenly Transmission Officials protect us princes and princesses, which implies you’re stronger than us. Most of you are only Great Cultivators, can it be that you’re all with the Ultimate Path too?"

"How could that be?" The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official chuckled, saying, "It’s completely different. We can only protect His Highness within the borders of the Great Yong Kingdom, but in Eternal Night, it’s beyond our capabilities."

Lin Yue raised an eyebrow slightly, casting a discerning glance at her without saying more.

He only asked, "During this month’s patrol in Liangzhou, have you found any signs of people from Liangwang City?"

"I only found three."

The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official shook her head slightly, "Moreover, they were just ordinary Four Symbols Practitioners. The people of Liangwang City are now in hiding, we can only search slowly."

"Aren’t the people from Liangwang City part of the Human Clan too? How can you tell them apart?" Lin Yue asked doubtfully.

"Of course, I can tell." The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official laughed, saying, "These people may also be Human Clan, but they weren’t born in Great Yong, never underwent Great Yong’s reincarnation, I can tell at a glance."

She chuckled softly, saying, "Just like Your Highness."

Lin Yue raised an eyebrow slightly.

Not only did he not undergo reincarnation in Great Yong, but he didn’t undergo reincarnation in Eternal Night either; he was reborn from the Other Shore’s reincarnation.

It was rumored that the Crown Prince could monitor reincarnation with Heavenly Dao.

And these Heavenly Transmission Officials, worthy of the Crown Prince’s esteem, also possessed similar abilities?

"This patrol seems to have no set time limit, when will it end?" Lin Yue asked casually without lifting his head.

"Winning over people’s hearts, it can only be approached slowly."

The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official smiled, saying, "As long as we suppress Liangwang City’s influence and prevent the Demon Clan from causing calamity, we can preserve Great Yong’s national fortune. Your Highness needn’t worry about these things, just focus on practicing peacefully. I will protect Your Highness, there will be no danger."

Lin Yue nodded slightly, then scrutinized her with a glance, saying, "Quite confident, aren’t you? Shall we have a match?"

"I’m no match for Your Highness, I can’t even withstand a single move."

The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official shook her head, "If Your Highness wants to compete, I can only admit defeat."

"Can’t withstand a single move?" Lin Yue was taken aback, "Didn’t you just say you can protect me and let me be at ease?"

"That’s a different matter."

The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official said, "Your Highness is also someone whose celestial influence is difficult to measure, the Dao’s Power couldn’t touch you, as though you don’t exist."

"Oh?" Lin Yue couldn’t help but give her a look.

He knew that while the Dao’s Power was invincible, for those whose celestial influence was hard to fathom, it was as though it didn’t exist.

This was the primordial’s favor towards the Ancient Human Clan; the Dao would retreat spontaneously before the Ancient Human Clan.

Otherwise, even if the Crown Prince couldn’t see those whose celestial influence was unpredictable, just by locking onto an approximate area and directly bestowing annihilating Heavenly Punishment, they could easily be eradicated.

When the Crown Prince invoked the annihilating Heavenly Punishment to break through the World Tree Heaven and Earth to save him, Duanmu Yan didn’t care about that punishment at all, only needing to ward off the mass extinction caused by the World Tree Heaven and Earth.

Perhaps this was why the Crown Prince was pursuing those whose celestial influence was beyond measure.

It appeared now that though these Heavenly Transmission Officials were weak in power, they seemed capable of utilizing the power of the Dao?

"We Heavenly Transmission Officials, except for the first Heavenly Transmission Official, are not a match for Your Highness."

The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official shook her head slightly, saying, "However, as long as they’re not of immeasurable celestial influence, we have nothing to fear."

Lin Yue roughly understood the unique nature of the Heavenly Transmission Officials, naturally grasping her point.

"No wonder they’re called Heavenly Transmission Officials..." Lin Yue couldn’t help but whisper.

"In a certain sense, we Heavenly Transmission Officials equate to the avatar of the Crown Prince."

The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official smiled slightly, "So Your Highness, just cultivate diligently, and leave the other matters to me."

Lin Yue nodded and continued flipping through the tome in his hand.

Suddenly—

"Hmm?"

Just then, Lin Yue’s pupils contracted sharply as he abruptly stood up.

"What happened to Your Highness?" The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official was slightly startled.

Lin Yue’s face turned deathly pale, his body trembled uncontrollably, his scalp tingling, with an icy chill surging in his heart.

In that moment, he felt a gaze upon him, as if he saw a crimson eye filled with madness and indifference, staring intently at him from afar.

"What’s going on?" The ninth Heavenly Transmission Official’s face changed slightly.

This prince, whose Dao Heart was Perfect and had even grasped the nascent form of the Ultimate Path, was actually trembling?

There was only one possibility—

The immense fear brought by life’s instinct rendered him uncontrollable.

Yet...

Even a Proving expert who transcended Heaven and Earth, even if a Demon God truly assaulted him, couldn’t achieve this!

Moreover, the form Lin Yue grasped was the nascent form of the Ultimate Path, and he was someone whose celestial influence was immeasurable, not even the Crown Prince could inflict instinctive fear upon Lin Yue!

"Could it be..."

A thought flashed through the ninth Heavenly Transmission Official’s mind, immediately looking at Lin Yue, raising an index finger and pointing it towards Lin Yue.
