I am a loser, but I defeated countless geniuses with the Soul-Calming Tower.

Chapter 2388

Wu Zhaoxue's gaze turned stern once again.

"Hehe... Compared to Wu Zhaoshan's clone, do you think he's... good enough to be the future leader of the Divine Dynasty?"

Lin Xuan chuckled and adopted a business-like posture.

Wu Zhaoxue frowned: "Shenxiao... lives up to its name!"

The sternness in her eyes faded, and she murmured these words before falling into deep thought.

After a long silence, she spoke again: "I can allow you to enter Wuzhao Mountain ahead of time, to be the first to complete the felling of trees on the plains and the picking of flowers in the deep valleys. Furthermore, you can condense the Dao Foundation of Sun and Moon with Shenyue in Sun and Moon Valley. By the time Wuzhao Mountain opens tomorrow, you will have already accomplished much more."

"Of course, you need to hurry. After all, there are many dark forces suppressed in Wuzhao Mountain. Wuzhao Mountain will lift the suppression after you enter, and the dark forces will become your obstacles. This is something I cannot control."

After speaking, Wu Zhaoxue looked at Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan smiled and shook his head, softly uttering two words: "Not enough."

"Ah……"

Wu Zhaoxue smiled, as if she had expected this, and continued, "If you are the first to complete the planting of trees and the grafting of flowers, you can travel in all directions on the Imperial Road. Mingquan's people will enter from the north."

At this point, Wu Zhaoxue paused, and only after Lin Xuan gestured for her to continue did she say, "My dynasty cannot bear the consequences of the three great lineages for you, and I hope you understand that."

Lin Xuan nodded, then looked at Wu Zhaoxue: "Besides that, I also need the Shenzhao Scripture, and I need it now."

“Lin Xuan…” Prince Yan spoke for the first time, but was interrupted by Wu Zhaoxue as soon as he finished speaking.

Wu Zhaoxue raised her hand in a gesture, and then with a wave of her hand, a scroll of silk flew directly towards Lin Xuan.

“Madam…” Prince Yan was taken aback. The silk scroll was the Divine Zhao Scripture, the foundation of the Sun and Moon Divine Dynasty, and it had been given away just like that.

When Wu Zhaoxue first asked her to bring Lin Xuan over, it seems she didn't mention this part of the process.

Prince Yan's words were once again interrupted by Wu Zhaoxue shaking her head.

Lin Xuan raised his hand to take the silk scroll, and after confirming that it was the Shenzhao Scripture, he put it away.

Then, Lin Xuan continued, "I also need near-Dao level scriptures, regardless of whether they can be used to condense a Dao foundation, the more the better."

Prince Yan frowned deeply, and the amiable expression on his face had vanished.

Lin Xuan is pushing his luck.

He was about to speak again, but this time Wu Zhaoxue glared at him and shut him up.

"There are five near-Dao level scriptures in the national treasury, which can be used to condense the Dao foundation, but cannot reach the Eternal Realm. There are also several great families in our dynasty that have collections of these scriptures. I will try my best to retrieve them for you."

Wu Zhaoxue's words caused Prince Yan's expression to change drastically, and his pretty face turned ashen.

"Your Majesty has such great courage!"

Lin Xuan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

With the addition of the Divine Scripture, he now has 19 near-Dao level scriptures that have not yet been integrated into the Undying Heavenly Scripture. In addition, there are 5 scriptures in the national treasury, which is enough for him to advance to the Undying Dao Body again and reach the realm of the original Dao Source.

As for the realm beyond the initial source of the Dao, that will take time, and it's currently uncertain whether it even exists. However, collecting as many near-Dao level scriptures as possible is definitely the right thing to do.

"It's not over yet, is it? You still have demands, right?"

Wu Zhaoxue did not show much change in expression because of Lin Xuan's praise, but continued to ask questions.

"Your Majesty's insight is truly remarkable!"

Lin Xuan responded with a smile.

Prince Yan glared at Lin Xuan, giving him a warning look.

Lin Xuan ignored him and slowly said, "I want the Sun Moon Divine Dynasty to help me keep Wu Qi, or better yet, kill him directly!"

"Kid, are you trying to drag my Sun Moon Divine Dynasty into this mess?"

This time, Prince Yan ignored all attempts to stop him, his voice filled with anger, and he lost the composure expected of a scholar.

"This is impossible!"

This time, Wu Zhaoxue refused: "Do you think these imperial seeds are left unattended? There are Immortal Emperor-level beings secretly watching over them."

“The three from Lingshan, the Yunzhou imperial family, and the Five Elements Palace will lose their connection to Wuzhao Mountain after they enter. At most, they will cause some trouble after they die.”

"But Wu Qi is a celestial being and cannot enter Wuzhao Mountain, where the struggle for the imperial heir has begun. If we leave him outside, the four top-tier Daoist lineages may take this opportunity to unite, and our Sun Moon Divine Dynasty will be in danger."

Wu Zhaoxue's figure materialized again in front of Lin Xuan: "The entity behind you may come to your aid, but I will not gamble. It's not worth it for a mere Wu Qi."

"That's such a shame!"

Lin Xuan shrugged. In fact, he had already considered these possibilities and was planning to give up after hearing this.

However, at this moment, Wu Zhaoxue said again: "But if Wu Qi cuts off his immortal soul clone and enters Wu Zhao Mountain, as long as you capture him, I can help you once. Although I can't kill him, it's still no problem to damage his foundation."

"it is good!"

Lin Xuan's eyes lit up.

"In that case, is the deal closed?"

Wu Zhaoxue asked calmly.

"Naturally!"

Lin Xuan nodded, and then said, "But before that, please take me to Chunyang Heaven first, I need to make some preparations."

"Oh?"

"Do you want the Heavenly Maiden's pure Yang core? Or do you want the Heavenly Maiden's assistance?"

For the first time, Wu Zhaoxue's gaze turned teasing, full of amusement.

"As expected, women, even an empress, are extremely gossipy!"

While thinking this to himself, Lin Xuan said aloud, "To be on the safe side, it would be best if Ling Pianran could come with me. If she can't, I can use the Pure Yang Core. Who knows what kind of monsters and demons might be in Wuzhao Mountain?"

"You don't need to worry too much. If you don't go to attack the three imperial races, you already have enough people around you."

Lin Xuan gave only a brief response to Wu Zhaoxue's last words.

"Those three must die!"

Lin Xuan's words were firm. These three had been targeting him since he was in the Feather Transformation Realm, and now they had to be killed.

Wu Zhaoxue nodded slightly upon hearing this, then looked at Prince Yan and said, "It's up to you!"

Prince Yan nodded helplessly, waved his hand, and led Lin Xuan away from the gilded hall...
