When Zheng Tian opened his eyes and woke up, he was stunned by his surroundings for a moment. He was lying on a bed in what looked like the room of a scion of a wealthy family.

His name was Zheng Tian, the Immortal Emperor of the Tian Di Realm. He was the strongest being and after a battle with the Demon King that led to the disappearance of his wife, he planned to leave Tian Di Realm to search for her in the more advanced Ninth Heaven Realm.

According to his understanding, ten thousand years ago, the Tian Di Realm and the Ninth Heaven Realm were linked as one. However, a tenth was forcefully separated and it became the Tian Di Realm.

In order to find his wife, he and his mount, the Sacred Dragon Emperor Xuan Cang, endured countless attacks from sea creatures, suffering severe injuries in the process.

Upon reaching the Ninth Heaven Realm, he unexpectedly encountered its strongest being, Martial God Emperor, whose power had already reached the summit of Buddha's Veneration and was half a step away from domination. In order to break through this barrier, he and many of his followers arrived in the Ninth Heaven Forest and stumbled upon Immortal Emperor Zheng Tian.

The Martial God Emperor wanted Xuan Cang's beast core for his breakthrough. As a result, he experienced a desperate struggle against a man and a dragon. In the end, Xuan Cang tore open a spatial rift and disappeared, leaving Immortal Emperor Zheng Tian to place five seals on himself, interrupting his aura, and ensuring the Martial God Emperor could not find him.

In this battle, the Martial God Emperor also suffered heavy injuries. His group of Buddha's Veneration followers suffered massive losses and had no choice but to retreat.

A full ten years have since passed, during which the broken spirit of the Immortal Emperor slept. Awoken today, the world is bound to tremble under his divine might!

Thus, his head is currently throbbing due to these memories. The owner of this body was called Xu Sheng, a young master of the Xu family, and the first genius in the whole of Li City. He broke through to the Heavenly Realm at the age of twelve, however, during one of his experiences, he was attacked by a spiritual beast and was heavily injured, almost dying. Though he survived, his meridians were damaged and his strength didn't improve, it even dropped to the realm of humans. He was now fifteen years old.

Due to his decreased strength, his treatment at home was vastly different and his fiancee had even canceled their engagement. His fiancee, Lin Feng, was the daughter of one of the four largest families in Li City, the Lin family.

The four families in Li City were: Xu, Lin, Lei, and Fu

Yesterday, when he and his younger sister Qing'er were shopping, they were harassed by members of the Lin family who wanted to harass Qing'er. In order to protect her, Xu Sheng was beaten to death. But just as he took his last breath, Zheng Tian entered his body, becoming Xu Sheng.

"Wait a minute, the Holy Eye and Godfire, the Angel Holy Flame are reborn with me!" Xu Sheng said, a bit surprised as he had lost both his Dragon Pattern Sword and Xuan Dragon Holy Armor during the initial battle.

"This is not surprising. They all merged with my soul, naturally they won't be lost."

"However, Martial God Emperor, I've neither offended nor harbored any ill-will against you, yet you tried to kill me. Very well, just wait, in twenty years, I'll have your head!"

Thinking about this, Xu Sheng couldn't help but get angry. He was just here to find a wife, not stirring trouble, yet they treated him as a pushover. Now, Xuan Cang was nowhere to be found. If anything happened to him...

"This Emperor will have your entire family buried with you!"

"Brother, you're awake!" A young girl walked in with a charming smile on her small face. She was quite beautiful, her skin was very pale, and her eyes were bright and lively. You could tell she was very happy.

"I'm awake." Xu Sheng gave a subtle nod. Facing such a little girl, he didn't feel much emotional fluctuation. Qing'er looked at him, wondering why her brother seemed a bit different. Ever since his powers regressed, she hadn't seen such confidence in his eyes.

"Brother, you... are you alright?"

Xu Sheng looked at her, reminded of his sister in another realm. It felt like ages since someone called him brother.

"I'm fine, just wanted to get some fresh air."

"I'll accompany you."

As soon as Xu Sheng appeared, he was met with laughter from the crowd.

"This waste, seriously injured by an Earth-class opponent, he really makes me laugh."

"Don't say it so loud, he is the first genius of the Xu family after all."

"First genius? Hahaha." All sorts of mockery came his way. If this happened before, Xu Sheng would have left in a huff, but this time, he paid no attention to them.

These were all young people, in his view, just a bunch of brats. It was unnecessary to stoop to their level. He just wanted to know where he was now.

"Brother, you... you're not angry anymore?" Qing'er was a bit surprised, tightly holding onto his arm.

"Why should I bother with these people?" Xu Sheng shrugged. However, his words were overheard by the crowd.

"Oh, quite the brave words, Xu Sheng. All these years, you've been hiding behind Qing'er. It's shameful for a brother to rely on his sister for protection."

"Exactly, what's your worth? Fifteen years old, only a human-class, tsk tsk tsk, it's disgraceful."

"For your sake, your tribal chieftain father went to the Misty Forest and has not returned yet. Can't you make an effort to uphold his name?"

Xu Sheng lifted his head and looked at them. In an instant, a force of the soul forced them to slightly bend their bodies.

That's the power of the Divine Eye, his soul's principal divine artifact.

In this world, treasures also have levels: quasi-spiritual tools, primary, intermediate, advanced spiritual tools; quasi-sacred artifacts, minor sacred artifacts, major sacred artifacts, divine objects, and godly artifacts.

"This... How did this kid become so terrifying?"

"Damn it, why are my legs constantly trembling?"

As a lord, even without the Divine Eye, these men couldn't look at him straight without being affected.

"Qing'er, let's go," Xu Sheng talked. This outing was merely to understand the situation. Looking at things now, Xu Sheng's previous treatment was indeed not good.

Returning to his room, Xu Sheng came up with an excuse to send Qing'er out, and then began examining his body. He finds that this Xu Sheng has a good physique and talent. Unfortunately, due to damaged meridians, he cannot refine his spiritual energy, making it impossible to practice cultivation. Instead, his cultivation level drops because he cannot preserve the spiritual energy.

However, healing the meridians is an easy task for someone of his strength. In the World of Heaven and Earth, he just needs a slightly powerful individual for help, and the meridians can be repaired. This small world is too underdeveloped, making meridian damage seem all the more serious.

"Let's put it this way. Regardless, I've used your body. Allowing your family to rule one side in the future can be considered as repaying you," Zheng Tian shook his head. The remnant soul within his body seems to have heard his voice and merged completely with the Celestial Emperor soul. Now that the problem has been resolved, it's time to start cultivating.

From today on, the Immortal Emperor is Xu Sheng, and Xu Sheng is the Immortal Emperor!

Looking back on the issue of cultivation, he is not afraid. Owing to his powerful soul, the damaged meridians won't pose a problem until he reaches emperor-level cultivation. As for the cultivation method, fortunately, all the Worthies of Heaven and Earth's techniques are in his mind. With enough cultivation, he can practice at will.

The cultivation methods are divided into one to nine stars, nine levels in total. Beyond the nine stars, there's a breakthrough to the infinite, becoming the ultimate technique, known as the Pole Star Technique!

"In this small place, the strongest technique is of three stars. Well, I guess I'll start practicing the four-star Explosive Flame Fist," Xu Sheng contemplated and said. Offence is the best defense, but if he cultivates too powerful a technique at present, it would draw undue attention, and his rank isn't high enough to practice more advanced techniques.

A night passed by, and Xu Sheng opened his eyes, stretching and yawning, white steam oozing from his body. A mere four-star technique took him a whole night to master, it seemed he needed to find ways to increase his strength.

Looking at the faint seal that goes on and off his arm, he gave a bitter smile. In order to escape from the martial god emperor in the past, he had to seal his power and aura. Now, the seal has five stages, and he needs to think of a way to unlock the first one; otherwise, wouldn't it take hundreds of years of hard cultivation? Moreover, the natural talent of his current body is not as strong as before.

Somewhat resigned, Xu Sheng left the room.

"Brother, you're awake." Early in the morning, Qing'er appeared before Xu Sheng. Her lively figure was very pleasant.

"Qing'er, come with me to the market, I need to buy some things," Xu Sheng looked up at the sky. As for now, he needs a large amount of elixirs to break through to the holy class. Otherwise, he is simply too weak.
