Emperor’s Domination

Immortal.“Its a shame that Lucidity didnt completely understand.” Li Qiye said.

“How many can truly understand Nine Secrets?” The old man murmured: “Comprehending is one thing, but to actually grasp them? Easier said than done. So many wise sages and progenitors have experimented but failed across the ages. Luciditys ambition was only a pipe dream.”

“That old man was ambitious indeed. Unfortunately, throwing people in there is the same as throwing a meat bun at a dog.” Li Qiye smiled and shook his head.

Lucidity threw several powerful enemies and ferocious characters into the prison across a long period of time. However, he had no choice but to give up eventually.

“Lucidity was only testing the water but throwing more and more still didnt yield any feedback.” The old man said.

“Because they werent strong enough, thats all.” Li Qiye smiled.

The old man paused for a bit before replying: “There were many powerful foes during his reign, mainly Eternals and five stood out the most with one easily occupying the first place.”

He then stared at the entrance and said: “These five, whether it be power or influence, werent inferior to Lucidity. The top person was exceedingly strong.”

“To what extent?” Li Qiye smiled.

The old man stared deeply into the cave and said: “A big shot that had lorded over Imperial. Lucidity back then wasnt his match and had lost too. If it wasnt for True Emperor Jiu Ning, the capital would have been gone. Later on, several clans worked together with Nine Secrets System and managed to capture him alive. Lucidity then threw him into the prison. Unfortunately, this guy didnt come back out either. The guy was one of the strongest Eternals in Imperial, famous at the same time as Yugu Yifei. Very few could match him.” The old man said sentimentally.

An outsider would be stunned right now. Remember, Lucidity King reigned for three generations. His power was immense and unquestionable, not just in Nine Secrets but all of Imperial. Some even said that he could be placed among the top three of masters.

But this powerful foe overwhelmed Lucidity King. Virtually every power in Imperial joined in the coalition just to capture him alive, just how powerful was this guy?

Yet, an existence of this level still disappeared after entering the prison, seemingly dead without a grave. The prison was a frightening location.

“Still too weak.” Li Qiye said flatly: “Maybe throwing in a progenitor can be effective, the rest are only going there to die.”

The old man had no response after hearing this.

In this world, how many people can throw a progenitor into this prison? Only another being at the progenitorial level. Anyone inferior would find this harder than reaching the sky.

The old man puffed out smoke rings and said: “Its understandable. Nine Secrets Ancestor failed too, so everyone else is just being overly optimistic.”

Back in the ancient era, this progenitor also researched the prison but didnt dare to go in. Perhaps a progenitor could come back out alive, but the cost must have been unimaginable.

“Nothing is certain in this world.” Li Qiye smiled and left for his peak.

The old man knocked his pipe to get out the ashes before putting it away. He placed his axe on his waist since he had finished collecting his wood and began to leave.

This process would repeat every day. He would gather wood then sell it in the city outside in exchange for food.

“A mortal like me shouldnt go to the immortal garret…” His song would always echo in these parts, becoming eternal. It would still be there a hundred years from now.
