The seven venerables of the Supreme Ocean Palace, the five divine envoys of the Sun and Moon Palace, the three sword servants of the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain, and the twelve true masters of the Royal Holy Domain… those who are superior to the elders in the four holy places!
“…Back in Shenhuang City, I heard that many people called Senior Gu ‘True Man’, and I thought it was a special title for people in the Imperial Holy Land. So, Senior Gu is also one of the twelve True Men of the Imperial Holy Land?” Yun Che asked, his heart was deeply moved. Back in Shenhuang City, he realized that Gu Cang’s status in the Imperial Holy Land was definitely not low. First, because of the attitude of Feng Hengkong and others, even the arrogant and arrogant Ye Xinghan and the weird Ji Qianrou were respectful in front of him and did not dare to act rashly. Secondly, the Imperial Holy Land attached great importance to Xia Yuanba, who had the Overlord Divine Vein, and even had the sign of making him the next Lord of the Holy Land. However, it was Gu Cang who always guided him in his cultivation, which showed his strength and status.
Now it seems that the word "Zhenren" in Gu Cang Zhenren is such an astonishing title!
“Yes, yes!” Xia Yuanba nodded quickly: “My master is one of the Twelve True Immortals, and ranks fifth among them.”
“I see.” Yun Che nodded slowly. Not only was he a True Person from the Holy Land, but he was also ranked fifth…
In other words, in the entire Royal Saint Domain, Master Gu Cang's overall status was ranked sixth! It was far more terrifying than he had expected.
Yun Che glanced at Master Gu Cang who was following behind him from a distance, and whispered, “Yuan Ba, I have never asked you, what is your master’s profound strength cultivation?”
“Junxuan Realm Level Nine.” Xia Yuanba said without hesitation, and then patted his chest again: “I used to think that Master was super powerful, but, if you give me another ten years, I will definitely be able to surpass him, hehehe.”
Master Gu Cang shook his head slightly in the back, with a faint smile mixed with sigh and a little pride on his face.
For a master, it would be a great comfort and even pride if his disciple could surpass him. But he was a thousand years old, and his profound strength was unrivaled. How difficult it would be to surpass him... But Xia Yuanba, this freak, climbed from the weak and miserable Elementary Profound Realm to the current Sovereign Profound Realm in just a few years. Even now, he still maintained a growth speed that shocked the Saint Emperor.
It would take him ten years to surpass himself. By then, he might not even be thirty years old.
How could he not sigh when his disciple, who was less than thirty years old, surpassed his master, who was a thousand years old?
“So your master is so powerful. Are all the twelve true masters as powerful as your master?” Yun Che continued to ask.
The internal affairs of the forces, especially the power structure of the top, are very taboo to be asked about... let alone the Royal Holy Land, the first of the Four Holy Lands. But for Yun Che, Xia Yuanba would not have the slightest scruple. Without even a second thought, he said directly: "The Twelve True Immortals are strictly ranked according to their strength. The strongest True Immortals of Pain, Nine Sighs, and Absolute Heart are all the most powerful Tenth Level Emperors!"
“Level 10 Emperor?” Yun Che’s heart condensed… Level 10 Emperor, the pinnacle of the Sovereign Profound Realm, was also the pinnacle of strength that the humans of the Profound Sky Continent could achieve!
In today's Fantasy Demon Realm, apart from the Little Demon Queen, the only one who can reach this realm is Ming Wang!
And there are actually three of them in one Huangji Holy Land!
No, including the Holy Emperor, there are four in total!!
“Among the nine immortals that followed, five were at the ninth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm, and four were at the late eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm. And among the elders, the strongest was also at the eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm.” Xia Yuanba continued.
“…” Frankly speaking, the strength of the Imperial Sacred Domain far exceeded Yun Che’s expectations, causing great waves in his heart. Such terrifying strength was definitely not known by ordinary people. If it weren’t for Xia Yuanba, even he would not have known so easily that the Imperial Sacred Domain was so powerful. He thought about it and said, “So, to be able to surpass the elders, one must be at least at the late eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm. There are twelve such peerless strongmen in your Imperial Sacred Domain, seven in the Supreme Ocean Palace, five in the Sun and Moon Divine Palace, and three in the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain… At this level of strength, the Imperial Sacred Domain is far superior to the other three holy places, and is worthy of being the leader of the four holy places.”
"Not really?" The voice of Master Gu Cang came from behind. He said calmly, "Masters, Venerables, Divine Envoys, and Sword Servant are the twelve, seven, five, and three strongest people in the Four Sacred Grounds respectively. However, these are four independent existences, and their strength standards are not the same."
"Among the seven venerables of the Supreme Ocean Palace, two are at the tenth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm, and the remaining five are all at the ninth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm. The Ocean Palace's Great Elder Mo Chenfeng mentioned earlier is at the late eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm, and is the strongest among the forty-eight elders of the Ocean Palace."
"Of the five divine envoys of the Sun Moon Temple, the first two are level 10 monarchs, and the last three are level 9 monarchs. The most powerful elder is about as powerful as Mo Chenfeng. In terms of top-level power, he is slightly weaker than the Supreme Ocean Palace."
“As for the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region… Although the number of high-level emperors and the total number of emperors in the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region are the fewest among the four sacred places, the ‘Three Sword Servant’ are all level ten emperors. The number exceeds that of the Supreme Ocean Palace and the Sun and Moon Divine Palace, and is on par with our sacred place.”
“…I see. Thank you, Senior Gu, for your unreserved guidance.” Yun Che turned around and said.
“Haha,” Master Gu Cang shook his head slowly and sighed, “With the strength of our respected master that is said to have seized the fortune of heaven and earth, I’m afraid that we are nothing but meaningless clouds.”
“That’s not right, Senior Gu.” Yun Che responded casually, but his heart felt heavy.
It seems that among the four holy places, there are as many as fourteen strong men who have reached the top level of the tenth level of the emperor! And the four holy masters among them are probably already in the late tenth level of the monarch realm! They are definitely not weaker than the Ming King... and may even be much better.
And there are nearly twenty people at the ninth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm!
As the top power in the continent, among the twelve guardian families in the Illusory Demon Realm, no one has achieved the tenth level emperor! There are only three ninth level emperors. The Yun family and the Mu family he is most familiar with... The strongest person in the Mu family, his grandfather Mu Feiyan, is an eighth level emperor, while the strongest elder of the Yun family, which has been in decline for a hundred years, is only at the seventh level of the Sovereign Realm.
He knew very early that the level of profound power in the Profound Sky Continent was superior to that in the Illusory Demon Realm. This was also why the Four Sacred Grounds were able to suppress the twelve guardian families in the Illusory Demon Realm, and the guardian families did not dare to step into the Profound Sky Continent for a full hundred years.
These four huge forces, which have been prosperous for thousands of years and are known as "holy places" in the world, are truly extremely terrifying existences.
As the Floating Sea Palace got closer, Yun Che asked Gu Cang, “Senior Gu, do you know anything about the ‘Moon Slaughter Devil Cave’?”
“The Moon-Slaying Devil’s Cave? What is that place?” Xia Yuanba turned sideways, his face full of curiosity.
"..." Master Ancient Cang showed a moment of surprise on his face, obviously surprised that Yun Che, who had never been to the Supreme Ocean Palace, actually knew this name. He carefully looked at Yun Che's expression and slowly said: "Since you know about the 'Moon Slaughter Devil Cave', you should know why the Supreme Ocean Palace has been located above the vast sea all year round. As for the Moon Slaughter Devil Cave, even I know very little. That place is an extremely taboo existence for the world, and you must not be curious about it."
“Why?” Yun Che frowned.
"Because the mystery of its existence has not been solved for ten thousand years." Master Gu Cang's voice was a little heavy: "Unknown things are often full of unknown dangers. And the longer this unknown mystery remains unsolved, the greater the possible danger. You can treat the name 'Moon Killing Devil Cave' as a vague legend. Don't delve into it... and don't get close to it, lest you be doomed."
After Master Gu Cang finished speaking, the Supreme Ocean Palace was already in sight. He flicked his whisk, and suddenly, a gentle breeze rushed in from below, carrying the four people quickly into the air: "We're here... let's go up."
His body passed through a layer of light blue mysterious light, and Yun Che brought Feng Xue'er with him and gently landed on the floating island above the vast ocean.
The moment I stepped into the Supreme Ocean Palace, the atmosphere around me changed completely. I could no longer smell the slightest trace of the ocean's scent, nor could I feel the caress of the ocean breeze on my face... It was as if I had suddenly entered a completely independent world from the world of the ocean.
Under his feet were black jades that emitted a faint cold light, each piece of which was priceless. At a glance, the sight was filled with tall and short buildings, palaces, courtyards, ancient trees, flowers and plants, full of vitality. And several times richer than the vitality was a mysterious aura that enveloped the entire Sea Palace, which was so thick that it was unbelievable.
This place doesn’t look like an island at all, nor a “palace”, but rather a luxurious, majestic city in the sky!
“Such a heavy profound energy.” Jasmine’s voice came from Yun Che’s heart: “It seems that almost all the emperors in the entire Profound Sky Continent have gathered here. It’s really interesting.”
Yun Che: “…”
As everyone was looking at the city in the sky in amazement, a figure appeared in the sky and in a flash, he was in front of them.
This was a white-haired, solemn-looking, short and fat old man. His speed was so fast that even Yun Che could not see clearly how he got so close to him.
The white-haired old man bowed to Master Gu Cang, with a faint smile on his face: "So it's Master Gu, I'm sorry Chen Feng was too busy to come and greet you."
"Brother Mo, long time no see." Master Gu Cang smiled faintly and nodded.
“This person should be the Grand Elder of Ocean Palace, Mo Chenfeng.” Xia Yuanba whispered in Yun Che’s ear.
Mo Chenfeng turned his gaze towards Xia Yuanba, with a look of amazement on his face: "I guess this is the Xia Yuanba who is now feared by the world and possesses the Overlord Divine Vein? At such an age and with such a high level of cultivation, it is truly a miracle that no one can match. The Overlord Divine Vein has been recorded several times in my Profound Sky Continent, but none of them can match your disciple. It is truly enviable that the Royal Saint Domain can have such a prodigy."
"Hehe." Master Gu Cang smiled faintly and did not comment.
Mo Chenfeng turned his gaze to Feng Xue'er and was about to speak when his whole body suddenly shook and his pupils contracted violently.
Even Master Gu Cang, who had a thousand-year-old state of mind, was terribly shocked when he saw Feng Xue'er before, let alone Mo Chenfeng.
Mo Chenfeng had just exclaimed that Xia Yuanba was "a miracle that no one could match." But when his spiritual sense touched Feng Xue'er, he was shocked to find that although she was younger than Xia Yuanba, her profound strength had actually reached the eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm.
On par with him, the Great Elder of the Sea Palace! !
"This girl... could it be Princess Snow of the Phoenix Sect?" Mo Chenfeng's voice changed significantly, and when he spoke to Feng Xue'er, he subconsciously raised his hands... As the Grand Elder of the Ocean Palace, he was an existence of transcendent status even in the Four Sacred Lands. Those who were qualified for him to perform the salute were rare in the entire Profound Sky Continent, but at this moment, facing Feng Xue'er, he subconsciously showed respect.
This is the respect that a profound practitioner has for a strong person. Although in terms of profound strength, both of them are at the eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm. But their ages differ by more than fifty times! In this regard, his eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm is not worthy of being compared with Feng Xue'er's eighth level of the Sovereign Profound Realm. There is simply a world of difference.
“I am Feng Xue’er, a junior. Nice to meet you, Elder Mo.” Feng Xue’er bowed gracefully.
Mo Chenfeng opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment. He suddenly thought, since this extremely powerful girl is Feng Xue'er, then the person next to her could be...
"Then... this young friend, could it be Yun Che, the master of Bingyun Palace of Cangfeng Nation?" Mo Chenfeng turned to Yun Che and asked. When the four people arrived, he only noticed the aura of Master Gu Cang, and never thought that Yun Che, whom he had been waiting for for a long time, would come with Master Gu Cang.
“I am Yun Che, nice to meet you, Great Elder Mo.” Yun Che nodded slightly.
"..." Mo Chenfeng took a deep breath and sighed, "Palace Master Bingyun of Cangfeng Nation, Princess Xue of Phoenix Sect, and Xia Yuanba of Huangji Holy Land, three of the most amazing figures of the younger generation, actually arrived at the same time. It really caught me off guard."
"I was so rude just now, please come in!"
Led by Mo Chenfeng himself, the four of them walked towards the interior of the Sea Palace. Mo Chenfeng kept scanning Yun Che and the other two, and sighed in his heart: "Of these three, one belongs to the Blue Wind Nation, and one belongs to the Divine Phoenix Nation. Even Xia Yuanba is not from the Royal Extreme Holy Land."
“Is the era of the Four Holy Lands really coming to an end?”
The thoughts that flashed through his mind were almost exactly the same as those that flashed through Gu Cang's mind when he saw these three people at the same time.
Mo Chenfeng took out a piece of light blue jade and moved his lips slightly, apparently trying to convey a message to someone in the distance.
“Brother Mo, the profound energy in the Ocean Palace is unprecedented in history. It seems that although the Demon Sword Conference will be held in a few days, the number of people invited should have reached 80% by now.” said Master Gu Cang.
Mo Chenfeng nodded slowly: "Yes. It seems that all the mystics in the world are fascinated by the secret of the 'Devil Sword'."
Yun Che curled his lips lightly… You, the Four Sacred Grounds, are the most fascinated! As for other forces… Oh, who has the guts to refuse the “invitation” from the Four Sacred Grounds.
Mo Chenfeng said to Feng Xue'er, "Princess Xue, the Phoenix Sect has been led here by your father a few days ago, and is currently living in the Flame Heart Palace. I wonder... hehe, Princess Xue would like to live in the Flame Heart Palace, or would you like to live in the same palace with little friend Yun?"
“Of course I live with Brother Yun.” Feng Xue’er said without any hesitation… and she didn’t realize there was anything wrong. Because she had no interest in the Devil Sword Conference at all, the most important purpose of coming with Yun Che this time was to protect him, so naturally she had to live in the same place.
“Then, I will follow Princess Xue’s wish.” Mo Chenfeng nodded. At this moment, the blue gem in his hand flashed slightly. Mo Chenfeng stopped and turned to Yun Che and said, “My little friend Yun, the Sea Emperor told me a few days ago that if you come, you must inform her as soon as possible. Just now, when the Sea Emperor heard that you have arrived at the Sea Palace, he put aside all the important matters at hand and asked me to take you to see her immediately no matter what.”
"The Sea King is waiting in the Sea King Palace ahead. Before going to his residence, please follow me to meet the Sea King first."
“It’s my honor.” Yun Che naturally had no reason to refuse.
To enter the Moon-Slaying Demon Cave, one must first obtain the consent of the Sea Emperor of the Supreme Ocean Palace.
