Xiao Mu straightened his argument and bowed to the Divine Phoenix with his hands clasped, respectfully saying, "Senior, three months ago during the Great War at Five-Finger Buddha Mountain against Changming Thunder God, you gave Elder Zhu Bingshen the Human Emperor Authority Fu…"

"You still have the nerve to mention the Human Emperor Authority Fu?"

Before Xiao Mu could finish speaking, the Divine Phoenix interrupted him angrily, "Last time I lent the Human Emperor's Might to the Great Tang Ruins, what on earth did you do that summoned the Illusion of the Human Emperor? Do you realize I was the one providing power behind the Seal of the Human Emperor, and the appearance of the Illusion of the Human Emperor almost caused me to faint to death from exhaustion?"

"..."

Xiao Mu's eyes suddenly widened, his expression becoming extremely awkward, having not anticipated that by using the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor to activate the Human Emperor's Authority Fu, he had made such a big mistake, almost leading to the death of the Divine Phoenix from exhaustion, the number one expert in the human world.

"Senior, at that moment the situation was critical, and I was only using my life's treasure to control the Seal of the Human Emperor; I had not foreseen that it would summon the Human Emperor's Illusion."

Xiao Mu hastily defended himself, though his confidence seemed insufficient.

"If I hadn't known that it was an unintentional mistake, do you think you'd still be standing here safe and sound today?" The Divine Phoenix huffed, the dissatisfaction in her tone still not completely dispersed.

"Tell me, what do you want to do this time? It can't be that you want to borrow the Human Emperor's Authority Fu again? If so, I'm afraid I can't grant your wish this time, as my injuries have not yet healed, and I cannot easily activate the Seal of the Human Emperor in a short time."

Lucky! Fortunately, I didn't tell the Divine Phoenix the news of Huang Yuan being trapped in the shattered space, much less seek her help. Otherwise, it would probably be more than just a scolding right now.

Xiao Mu, feeling a sense of relief, responded, "Senior, I possess a Giant Seal, whose might is somewhat similar to that of the Human Emperor's Seal. Therefore, I wish to consult with you, senior, about a method similar to that used to create the Human Emperor Authority Fu, to facilitate lending out this Giant Seal when necessary."

"The Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, huh? You think I don't know the name of your treasure. Stealing the Emperor's Might, I wonder where you got the courage."

Mentioning the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, the Divine Phoenix casually teased Xiao Mu but was also surprised that Xiao Mu succeeded in stealing the Emperor's Might, "I really don't know how you managed to steal it successfully. Anyway, these aren't the things I should worry about."

"If you want a method similar to the Human Emperor's Authority Fu to control your Seal of the Heavenly Emperor and lend out its authority, it's not impossible."

"The method to create the Human Emperor's Authority Fu is incredibly precious and cannot be given to you for free. Trade it for a True God Merit. Lord Merit, Guobao Merit, Life and Death Merit, Blessing and Virtue Merit, Reincarnation Merit, any category of Merit would do."

Xiao Mu's eyelids twitched wildly and he nearly fell flat on the ground as he heard this, "Senior, please don't make such an outrageous demand. Lord Merit, Guobao Merit, True God Merit in exchange for the method to create the Human Emperor's Authority Fu, is it really that valuable? Moreover, do you truly believe that a mid-stage Divine Spirit realm being like me could get a True God Merit?"

"The Seal of the Human Emperor is the Treasure for Governing the World of the Human Emperor; even if it's just borrowing the method for creating its authority's Fu Zhuan, its value absolutely matches that of a True God Merit. This trade would only be a gain for you."

The Divine Phoenix responded earnestly, then chuckled, her expression showing lively changes, "What's the matter? Scared? Not long ago, you brought back a Half Cursed Stone, obtaining half a curse Merit. Why are you acting humble now?"

"Alright, let's assume that the method to create the Human Emperor's Authority Fu could compare with True God Merit."

Full of helplessness, Xiao Mu looked at the Divine Phoenix and argued, "But the reason I was able to bring back the Half Cursed Stone last time was entirely down to luck, as I didn't encounter a battle with a True God. It was almost as if I stumbled upon it."

"Now you're asking me for True God Merit, where am I supposed to find that? Do you expect me to battle with true gods and take their Merit? Let alone whether I have the power to take True God Merit, even if I could, do you honestly think I, being a mid-stage Divine Spirit realm being, could be an opponent for a True God?"

"You don't need to be so modest; I have quite a trust in your strength."

The Divine Phoenix showed a smile, "Nevertheless, you're right. You are not a match for a True God right now, and it would be too difficult to ask you to provide True God Merit in exchange for the method to create the Human Emperor's Authority Fu at this moment."

"How about this, I'll allow you to owe the True God Merit. Whenever you manage to obtain it in the future, you can give it to me then, and I can provide you the method similar to the Human Emperor's Authority Fu right now."

"Think it over carefully and see if it's worth the trade. Don't feel like you're at a loss; the Human Emperor Authority Fu is a Heavenly God Treasure, and the value of using this method to control a Heavenly Emperor Treasure far exceeds that of True God Merit."

"Let me think about it, senior."

Xiao Mu was full of helplessness, feeling that the deal was too big as it involved True God Merit, yet he also found the Divine Phoenix's words quite reasonable.

The rank of a Heavenly God is above that of True Gods, and the value of a Heavenly God Treasure is certainly far greater than True God Merit, which was without question.

Xiao Mu had to consider whether he could obtain True God Merit and when that could be possible.

True Gods seemed distant, but for the current Xiao Mu, they were not entirely out of reach. He already possessed half a True God Merit, and once he found the other half of the Yama Command to fuse into the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor, he could have a complete True God Merit—Lord Merit.
