Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 509: Chapter 225: The Struggle of Humanity_1

As Xia Yunqiu’s voice fell, Shen Yuan could clearly see that the human fate on Xia Yunqiu had undergone earth-shattering changes.

If the sliver of human fate on Xia Yunqiu was barely detectable when he first saw her, now Shen Yuan could feel substantive changes, as if she were the sacred human flame that dispersed darkness and drove away demons in ancient times.

Those who possess human fate fear not the common demons and malevolent spirits; their actions are naturally protected by the momentum of human fate.

Entering the Imperial Court, they may be appointed as ministers and high generals, whereas walking in the mortal world, they could become great scholars and left over sages.

In today’s Great Xia’s Imperial Court, those who carry human fate are without exception high-ranking officials, controlling a part of the Imperial politics.

To some extent, these officials with human fate are the foundation of the entire Great Xia’s Imperial Court.

...

Even Emperor Xia, to dismiss a high official with human fate, must bear the risk of instability in the court and the shaking of the dynasty’s fate.

Among the many who bear the human fate, the only exception lies with the Princes of the Great Xia Imperial Family.

Every Prince of the Great Xia Imperial Family is qualified to become the future Mortal Emperor, and their human fate must be evident, as it is the foundation for their future ascension to the Mortal Emperor’s throne.

To a certain degree, every Prince has the potential to threaten the Mortal Emperor.

Thus, since ancient times, in order to prevent the rebellion of their offspring, the Mortal Emperors have bestowed the title of Prince through blood ties.

The title of Prince is a recognition of legitimate royal bloodline by the human Imperial Dynasty, which can to some extent borrow the dynasty’s fate to strengthen itself.

Before the position of the heir to the throne is finalized, the power of each Prince to mobilize the dynasty’s fate is comparable to that of the various Dukes.

The Mortal Emperor thus firmly binds the position of the Prince to the human fate.

Once the Mortal Emperor removes the title of Prince, the human fate will be peeled away from the Prince, thereby completely toppling him into the dust.

This is a suppression at the level of Mortal Emperor’s bloodline and dynasty’s rules; it is also an important support for the Mortal Emperor to control the human fate alone.

Normally, only the Princes are qualified to challenge the Mortal Emperor, yet the Princes are also restricted by the title bestowed by the Mortal Emperor; it’s completely a deadlock.

However, Shen Yuan saw a slight change outside the situation on Xia Yunqiu.

Xia Yunqiu has the legitimate direct bloodline of Emperor Xia and should, by rights, be a Great Xia Princess, possessing the qualifications to bear the human fate, but that’s just qualifications. @@novelbin@@

Normally, a Princess cannot inherit the position of Mortal Emperor, and their human fate is too weak to even manifest, leading others to disregard them entirely.

Additionally, like the Princes, Princesses are also conferred by the Mortal Emperor, so once the foundation of their title bearing human fate is stripped away, it will also dissipate.

However, Xia Yunqiu’s situation cannot be explained by common sense.

She inherited a branch of the ancient Star Inn Dao and the Tianyun Sect methods, used the Enlightenment Pavilion to disseminate teachings to the world thereby gathering momentum, her Mortal Emperor’s bloodline to a certain extent also accumulated a bit of human fate.

This bit of human fate brought her a breakthrough from nothing to something, gradually making her favored by the human fate.

And although she is a member of the Great Xia Imperial Family, she has not been conferred the title of Princess; theoretically she does not belong to the Mortal Emperor’s dominion.

The Mortal Emperor cannot use the method of stripping away the title of Princess to topple the human fate on her.

Last and most importantly, Xia Yunqiu, who masters the Tianyun Sect methods, has come to understand her own destiny.

She proactively showed goodwill to Shen Yuan, willing to present herself as a child to ask Shen Yuan to take control of the game.

Although it seems that she has given up the revered position of Princess to be used by Shen Yuan, on another level, is she not borrowing fortune from Shen Yuan in such manner?

Shen Yuan is the Supreme Taoist, the Fengdu Emperor, comprehending several Heavenly General and Earthly Destroyer Divine Skills, presiding over the balance of Yin and Yang, life and death in the Primal Chaos Realm.

Within the entire Primal Chaos Realm, many powerful experts can surpass Shen Yuan in strength, but none can match him in terms of momentum.

Even the current Emperor Xia is no exception.

Emperor Xia is but an incomplete Mortal Emperor, and he doesn’t even hold power over the entire Human Clan territory—controlling only the land of Great Xia while the southwestern vassal states and overseas countries are not within Great Xia’s rule.

In terms of momentum, Emperor Xia is not on the same level as Shen Yuan.

This leads to the moment Xia Yunqiu resolves to become Shen Yuan’s chess piece, her own fate has already soared.

Under the influence of fate, the human fate is also actively moving towards Xia Yunqiu, which is an essential step for her to complete the transformation of human fate.

Xia Yunqiu’s cultivation level, which was initially at the Qi Training Early Stage, began to grow at a visible speed, breaking through barriers without hindrance.

Qi Training Middle Stage, Qi Training Late Stage, Qi Refining Peak… a Yin God bathed in human fate is nurtured within the Spiritual Platform.

Surging with vitality, a Yin God nearly identical to Xia Yunqiu steps out from within the Spiritual Platform, appearing within Enlightenment Pavilion.

The Yin God respectfully bows to Shen Yuan and then returns to its place.

At this moment, Xia Yunqiu’s cultivation level has stabilized at the Spirit Transmutation Early Stage.

In just a few breaths, she crossed a major realm that troubled countless cultivators, a realm illustrative of the profound mystery of the Tianyun Sect’s Fortune Borrowing Methods.

Should one be able to borrow from heaven’s fate, even ascending in broad daylight after a moment of enlightenment would not be out of the question.

Xia Yunqiu slowly opened her eyes, feeling the marvelous changes happening within her body.

At this moment, her heart was already filled with joy.

After seeing Gong Buyu take action to suppress the many prodigies, even startling away Capital Governor Du Yuan, Xia Yunqiu had already begun to speculate about Shen Yuan’s identity.
