Chapter 606 — Foreknowledge of Nothing (Monthly Ticket Bonus +8.5)

"Hahaha, now this is interesting. If the Four Holy Transcendents are that strong, their drop rates must be even higher," Lin Feng laughed heartily from the side. Emperor Kong was meditating in another room—what a pity he was missing such an entertaining conversation.

"Hmph... only you lot would dare to dream it," muttered the Foresight Owl.

Before she was even born, those four old relics had already been overlords of some corner of the Realm King Star. Shi Jin had his work cut out for him.

"By the way, we've been traveling so long—haven't you foreseen where the third Wish Star inheritance is?" The Gem Cat kept constant watch on the outside world, indifferent to matters of bloodshed. With Emperor Shi around, she knew Shi Jue and Guan Huanlang had someone to fall back on, at least.

"It's not that easy to find. We've only explored a tiny corner of the Cosmic Sea, and who knows if the Prayer Star Clan might have tossed the inheritance somewhere even farther..."

"A pity that during my time in the Era Ruins, I didn't major in the power of foresight—otherwise I could have assisted with predictions," said Emperor Shi.

There was another point: he didn't much believe in the power of foresight...

"Hehe, no matter. This is what our Astrologer Clan excels at! Leave it to us!"

"Oh, right—are we still holding off on announcing that the Four Holy Families paid to have you assassinated?" the Owl asked Shi Jin.

"Mm, that too. Let's just keep it stored for now..." Shi Yan chuckled. "As long as we don't announce it first, no one will know who hired the assassin against me, or who the assassin was hired by. When the time comes, besides the Four Holy Families, anyone we don't like can be fitted with the same hat, and then we strike with perfect justification."

"Those who sent the Assassin Star after me could be the Four Holy Families, or other forces allied with them. If we announce everything at once, there won't be much value left to exploit..."

"At the same time, we can pretend to have obtained the Assassin Star's transaction ledger. Plenty of prodigies from Transcendent-level forces have been killed by the Assassin Star, haven't they? Now, flinging mud should be even easier..."

Are you even human?!

The two cats stared at Shi Jin, dumbfounded. You really have no morals at all, do you? Already scheming to use the Assassin Star to sling mud at people???

...

Before long, Shi Jin and the others returned to the Realm King Star.

In the Hovering Realm, an enormous warship descended above Lingxiao City.

Countless Beast Tamers emerged, all of them exhilarated.

Through Shi Jin's recounting of Blue Star's history and Donghuang's history, these Beast Tamers learned for the first time just how formidable their own Realm Master was.

Through this battle, they also learned for the first time just how powerful their homeworld was.

This battle could be said to have greatly boosted the pride of the Beast Tamers loyal to Wang Kong and Lin Feng's direct line.

Although only Shi Jin, the five great God-Clan Transcendents, and Emperor Shi had appeared in this battle—not Emperor Kong or Lin Feng—that did not stop them from joining in the excitement. They were all family, after all.

At this moment, before the warship had even landed, a Transcendent's might swept across the entire Hovering Realm, and the formidable spatial fluctuations left all who felt them shaken. As a blazing sun of Transcendent Origin rose in the sky, a figure was the first to emerge from the warship, his bearing peerless and transcendent.

"The Realm Master???" Seeing his figure, many were stunned.

Realm Master Wang Kong... had gone to the Assassin Star with them this time too??

Wait... behind him...

Countless people could not believe their eyes.

The next moment, Emperor Kong gazed out over the myriad cities, his voice reaching nearly every citizen of the realm.

"From this day forth, I am a Transcendent."

"The Hovering Realm hereby applies for status as a first-tier realm."

As Emperor Kong's words fell, boom—thunder rumbled across the skies of the entire Hovering Realm. Countless Beast Tamers stared at the sky in shock, mouths agape as they looked at their own Realm Master, wondering if they had misheard.

"A Transcendent—a Transcendent???" One after another, the Wang clan's descendants stared blankly at the sky.

Emperor Kong's disciple Zilan also gazed in disbelief at Emperor Kong's figure in the sky, wondering if she was dreaming.

Before long, the news that Wang Kong, Realm Master of the Hovering Realm of Blue Star's Donghuang lineage, had ascended to Transcendent spread throughout the Realm King Star.

The myriad races of the starry sky were shaken, and suddenly understood what had happened.

"Xifaen really is dead. Its Transcendent Origin was drawn out and absorbed by this Wang Kong!"

"This Wang Kong is a powerhouse in his own right—he once had a record of assassinating a Transcendent at the God level, and he is well versed in the space element. His ascension to Transcendent will make him even more terrifying."

"Wait, if that's the case, then Blue Star now has one star and eleven Transcendents?? What kind of joke is this?"

The news of Emperor Kong's ascension to Transcendent also soon reached the Four Holy Families, plunging the Four Holy Transcendents into silence once more, their heads spinning.

"Summon our people," the Four Holy Transcendents called out in unison, issuing their orders:

"Take generous gifts and proceed to the Hovering Realm to congratulate Realm Master Wang Kong on his ascension to Transcendent. See to it that the slander spread by petty men is thoroughly dispelled."

The Four Holy Families, facing the Blue Star lineage in its full glory, were clearly wary as well. They had no wish to tear off the mask of civility right away, nor did they want the Blue Star lineage to do the same to them, so they chose the course of submission, attempting to negotiate a temporary peace.

With the return of Shi Jin and the others, not only the Four Holy Families but countless other powers seized upon the pretext of Emperor Kong's advancement to Transcendent to flock to the Suspended Void Domain, bearing gifts and congratulations, hoping to establish friendly relations with the Blue Star lineage.

Others came to thank the Blue Star lineage for helping them wipe out the Assassin Star.

During this period, all who arrived could see, in the sky above the Suspended Void Domain, another prison city that resembled a jail suspended in midair.

This prison now held tens of thousands of assassins, all enemies captured alive by Shi Jin and the others during the Battle of the Assassin Star.

At present, under Emperor Shi's power, most of their strength had been erased, suppressed to below the God level and held in confinement, awaiting judgment.

Shi Jin, with nothing better to do, enjoyed chatting with the talented folk here; everything they said was simply delightful to hear.

"So you're the one called Iger?" Shi Jin stood outside a cell, looking at the teleporter Iger, bound in chains within, and spoke.

"S-sir! Spare me," the teleporter Iger begged. "My ability is rare, and I too was dragged off to the Assassin Star by that dog Sifaen—I had no choice."

"I never wanted to aid the wicked. Spare me, and I will serve you with all my heart and strength..."

Shi Yan chuckled. "Was it you who used your magnetic-travel skill to teleport that assassin near me?"

The teleporter Iger said bitterly, "It was me, sir, but I knew nothing at all—I was nothing but a tool."

"What level is your magnetic-travel skill now?" Shi Tang asked.

Iger said, "A perfect divine skill. So long as the target is locked within the bounds of the Cosmic Sea, I can teleport them anywhere—but beyond that range, it fails..."

"That useless?" Shi Shuo was stunned.

"Huh??" Iger was dumbfounded. This was useless?
