"Lan Zi, Lan Xin, take the two distinguished guests from the Holy Land to the Divine Sea Palace, and you two will serve them personally. You must not neglect them."
Following Mo Chenfeng's call, the two female disciples of the Sea Palace quickly approached and bowed deeply: "Yes, it's the Great Elder... Please come in, two distinguished guests."
“Why does the Sea King want to see my brother-in-law?” Xia Yuanba was curious but also worried… The Sea King was one of the four great saints of Tianxuan, and was as famous as the Saint Emperor!
“Since the Sea Emperor has summoned you personally, don’t ask any more questions.” Master Gu Cang pulled Xia Yuanba’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, it won’t be a bad thing, let alone dangerous.” He turned his head and looked at Yun Che deeply: “The person who can make the Sea Emperor so eager to meet him… is a junior, and the first person in the history of the Sea Palace.”
"Brother-in-law, then... I will go to the Holy Emperor first. You must pay attention to your safety. If anything happens, you must send me a message as soon as possible."
Xia Yuanba was basically half-dragged away by Master Gu Cang.
“Haha, I’ve heard that Palace Master Yun and Xia Yuanba have a very good relationship. They are not close relatives, but they are far better than close relatives. It seems that the rumors are true.” Mo Chenfeng said with a faint smile, but his heart was suddenly in turmoil… These two people who will definitely stir up the world in the future have a relationship as close as brothers. This is definitely not a good thing for the holy land that has dominated the world for thousands of years.
"Princess Xue, the Sea Emperor's Palace is the most sacred place in our Sea Palace. No one is allowed to enter without the Sea Emperor's personal order. Just now, the Sea Emperor only allowed me to take Palace Master Yun with me. How about I arrange for my disciples to take Princess Xue to her residence first? If Princess Xue is willing, she can also go to the Flame Heart Palace to meet her family first."
Mo Chenfeng had calmed down, but when facing Feng Xue'er, he still showed a completely subconscious respect. It was because Feng Xue'er's profound strength was too shocking.
“No.” Feng Xue’er shook her head, holding Yun Che’s arms with both hands without any intention of loosening: “If I can’t go in, then I will wait for Brother Yun outside.”
"Okay." Mo Chenfeng nodded, but his heart suddenly tightened.
Who on earth is this Yun Che… He has an extremely terrifying talent, and behind him is a master with extraordinary abilities. He has two of the most talented young people in the world, one of whom treats him as a close relative, and the other has a deep love for him…
The three of them are only around twenty years old, but they are already shocking. Give them another hundred years... No, with their growth rate, it won't take a hundred years at all. By then, I'm afraid the four holy places will have to bow down before him.
Mo Chenfeng took a deep breath and walked ahead: "Follow me."
The deeper you go into the Supreme Ocean Palace, the thicker the profound energy becomes. At this moment, the Supreme Ocean Palace has gathered almost all the strongest people at the highest level of the Profound Sky Continent, but the entire Ocean Palace is quiet, without any chaotic sounds. In fact, along the way, except for the Ocean Palace disciples stationed there, no other profound people can be seen.
Yun Che was not surprised at all. In the past, whether it was the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament or the Seven Kingdoms Ranking Tournament, all the heroes gathered together and it was very lively. But this place is different... This is the Supreme Ocean Palace! It is the supreme holy place in the hearts of all the profound practitioners in the world! Except for the other three holy places, all the other forces that received the invitation were flattered and terrified. When they arrived at this legendary holy place, they must be nervous and uneasy. No matter how brave they are, they will only stay in the arranged residence peacefully and steadily, and will never dare to make noise and walk around at will.
All the mysterious people who were invited here were powerful and overlords who were famous in all directions. But when they arrived at the Supreme Ocean Palace, they were like common people entering the palace, and they dared not even breathe.
Mo Chenfeng did not speak to Yun Che along the way, but walked faster and faster, and Yun Che and Feng Xue'er followed effortlessly. At this moment, a short and stocky figure appeared in Yun Che's sight.
The man was only about three feet tall, wearing a pitch-black, extremely tattered cloak. The cloak was too big, with the upper edge covering his entire face, and the lower edge reaching down to his feet, dragging on the ground.
This was the first profound practitioner outside the Sea Palace that Yun Che saw after entering the Supreme Sea Palace. Because the aura on him was completely different from the Sea Palace disciples he had passed by before. Moreover, his profound energy aura was only at the third level of the King Profound Realm.
He walked slowly on the ground with a faint blue light. Looking from the side or back, it was not even possible to immediately identify that it was a person walking. In the quiet, empty, and heavy sea palace, his presence was particularly dazzling... Even from a distance, one could sense a very strange aura from him.
Upon seeing this person, Yun Che’s steps paused slightly, and his brows furrowed.
Such a strong poisonous smell! Under his black clothes, there are at least two hundred kinds of poisons!
And that aura... could it be the Gu Emperor!?
Noticing Yun Che’s reaction, Mo Chenfeng turned around and asked, “Has Palace Master Yun seen this person before?”
“No.” Yun Che shook his head, his eyes moving away from the black-clothed dwarf. “I’m just a little curious. I heard that the people invited to this Devil Sword Conference are all profound practitioners at the level of Overlord and Emperor, and this person’s profound strength should only be the third level of the King Profound Realm, but he was invited here. And judging from his appearance, he is not restrained in this Supreme Ocean Palace… I think he must be an extraordinary person.”
"This person is indeed extraordinary." Mo Chenfeng said calmly, "He is from the Black Evil Country. Although his profound strength is only at the King Profound Realm, even if he is as strong as a Tyrant Emperor or even an Emperor, if he knows that he is in front of him, he will retreat. In the Black Evil Country, everyone is terrified and fears him like a snake or scorpion. Palace Master Yun may have heard of his name."
"Ghostly Poison Immortal!"
“Oh…” Yun Che responded, but it was the first time he heard this name.
“I’ve heard of this name from my father.” Feng Xue’er said, “When my father told me about the most terrifying people in the Profound Sky Continent, he mentioned the ‘Ghostly Poison Immortal’ and said that he was the most powerful person in the Profound Sky Continent in using poison… Especially the Gu poison, which, once planted, no one can cure it.”
"Yes." Mo Chenfeng nodded. As the great elder of the Ocean Palace, even he knew this person, which showed how terrifying he was: "He has countless enemies in his life, including many Overlords and Emperors, but he is still alive today, which shows that compared to his profound strength, his poison power is by no means insignificant. However, this person was not invited by my Ocean Palace."
“Oh?” Yun Che asked with a questioning look on his face.
"He was invited by Tianwei Sword Region. They probably want to borrow his abilities for something. Perhaps we can find out at the Devil Sword Conference."
"We have arrived at the Sea King Palace." Mo Chenfeng stopped and turned around: "Princess Xue, please wait here. Palace Master Yun, please follow me."
“Brother Yun, I’ll be waiting for you here… Be careful.” Feng Xue’er stopped and called softly.
"Don't worry, I'll be out soon."
The Sea Emperor Palace, located in the very center of the Supreme Sea Palace, is the core palace of the entire Supreme Sea Palace, embodying the majesty and glory of the Sea Palace for ten thousand years.
Its appearance was not much different from the other palaces that Yun Che had seen along the way, but the moment he stepped into the Sea Emperor Palace area, his five senses and six consciousnesses were all shaken… At that moment, it was as if he had stepped from the ordinary world into the palace of heaven. A deep sense of awe emerged from the bottom of his heart, and he suddenly had an urge to kneel down and worship. His originally extremely sharp spiritual perception became blurred, and even his vision became increasingly hazy.
Yun Che was distracted for a short time, but he quickly regained consciousness and immediately focused his mind. He possessed the soul of the Dragon God, and the level of his soul power was so high that in just a moment, his five senses had recovered.
“There is a peculiar profound formation set up beneath this Sea King Palace. If one does not have enough profound strength and soul power, one will have to walk in and kneel out.” Jasmine suddenly said coldly.
Arriving at the entrance of the Sea Emperor Palace, Mo Chenfeng turned around and looked at Yun Che, only to find that Yun Che had clear eyes, a composed demeanor, and steady steps. Not only was there no trace of fear or uneasiness on his face, but he was instead leisurely appreciating the surrounding scenery.
A deep look of surprise flashed across Mo Chenfeng's pupils. The entire Sea God Temple was shrouded in a huge mysterious formation, and this huge mysterious formation was also the strongest mysterious formation of the Supreme Sea Temple, named "Sea God Covering the Sky Formation". Once you step into this formation, you will be under supreme pressure, just like facing the true God. Those below the Emperor will be weak and trembling in this formation. Those below the Overlord will kneel directly to the ground, their will will collapse, and they will not even have the strength to walk.
Even as an eighth-level emperor, he would feel panic and fear every time he entered the Sea King Palace.
He originally thought that even though Yun Che was extremely talented, he was still completely defenseless when entering this “Sea God Covering the Sky Formation” for the first time, and at the very least his steps would be unsteady, his face would be pale, and his body would be covered in cold sweat… He absolutely did not expect that Yun Che would actually have a face full of leisure and contentment, and he seemed to be completely unaffected by the “Sea God Covering the Sky Formation”.
This...what's going on? Could it be that his mental strength is even better than mine?
Mo Chenfeng thought in shock in his heart.
The door opened and the two entered. Mo Chenfeng lowered his head as he entered the door. After taking only three steps, he bowed his head and said, "Report to the Sea Emperor, Yun Che, the master of the Bingyun Palace of Cangfeng Nation, has been brought here."
After Mo Chenfeng entered the Sea King Palace, he never raised his head. Yun Che immediately looked at the figure standing in the center of the palace.
The Sea King stood with his back to them. He was extremely slender, wearing a long palace gown that shimmered in blue light, with a high collar that reached all the way to his hair...
This back view made Yun Che stunned.
female?
The Sea Emperor is actually... a woman?
"You should leave now."
The Sea King spoke, and it was the voice of a middle-aged woman. The voice was very soft, but every word was like a bell that shook the sky, majestic and awe-inspiring.
"Yes." Mo Chenfeng stepped back and closed the door of the Sea Emperor Palace.
“Junior Yun Che greets Senior Hai Huang.” Yun Che took a step forward and saluted respectfully, his mind was quite solemn. Because the person in front of him was the Lord of the Holy Land who had dominated Tianxuan for ten thousand years! He was an unrivaled strong man who was the best in Tianxuan, and also the first Lord of the Holy Land he had ever met!
But he never imagined that the Sea Emperor, one of the Four Sacred Lords, was actually a woman!
The Sea King slowly turned around, and his true appearance appeared before Yun Che's eyes. This was the face of a middle-aged woman, but there was almost no feminine tenderness. Instead, every corner and every line carried an incomparably heavy majesty and sharpness.
She looked at Yun Che, her eyes were as deep as the ocean, without a trace of emotion. After ten breaths of extremely oppressive silence, she finally spoke and nodded slowly: "It is true that seeing is believing. In front of me, and in the Sea God Covering Heaven Formation, you are as clear as a mirror and as firm as a rock. I have always thought that the rumors about you were mostly exaggerated, but now it seems that you are far better than the rumors! No wonder 'that person' thinks so highly of you."
Yun Che did not ask who the “that person” in her words was. He smiled and said, “I am ashamed to receive the high praise from the Sea Emperor. I came to the Supreme Ocean Palace for two reasons: first, to participate in the Devil Sword Conference, and second, to enter the Moon-Slaying Devil Cave. I hope Senior Sea Emperor will help me.”
“Palace Master Yun is really straightforward.” The Sea Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly and walked forward slowly. With every step he took, the pressure that enveloped Yun Che’s entire body increased exponentially: “This Emperor originally wanted to chat with you a little more, but it seems that Palace Master Yun is not interested in this.”
“It is the honor of my life to meet Senior Sea Emperor. As the emperor of the Ocean Palace and the overlord of the world, every moment of your time is worth a million gold. How dare I delay you any longer?” Yun Che said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
“Is that so?” The Sea Emperor stood three steps in front of Yun Che. His figure was surprisingly taller than Yun Che by half a head. “I already know that you want to enter the Moon Slaughter Devil Cave. But I am very curious, why do you want to get a Netherworld Udumbara Flower at such a high price? As far as I know, the Netherworld Udumbara Flower is a very evil thing. Even if the Emperor gets close, at best his soul will be damaged, and at worst he will die. Apart from killing people without being seen, I have never heard of any other use for it.”
Yun Che did not hesitate, his eyes sincere, “The Netherworld Udumbara Flower is what my master needs. This matter should not be told to others, but since you have a request to Senior Sea Emperor, I naturally have to tell you the truth.”
The Netherworld Udumbara Flower is what Jasmine needs, and Jasmine is his master, so he said this with integrity, and the Sea King would never be able to find any trace of him lying.
"Your master?" The Sea Emperor's eyes tilted slightly. "This emperor has heard that the master has the ability to reach the sky and penetrate the earth. He can turn an emperor into nothingness in the blink of an eye. Since it is what your master needs, why doesn't he go and get it himself? I believe that with the master's ability, there is no place in this world that he cannot go."
“Because obtaining a Netherworld Udumbara Flower is a test given to me by my master.” Yun Che smiled faintly and said, “Since it is my master’s order, I will naturally do my best to complete it at all costs. I have been trying to find out about the Netherworld Udumbara Flower over the years, and finally got the news that the Netherworld Udumbara Flower had appeared in the Moon Slaughter Demon Cave, so I must go in and take a look no matter what... I hope Senior Sea Emperor will help me.”
"I see." The Sea King nodded slowly, his eyes remained calm, and it was unclear whether he believed it or not: "Speaking of which, where is the Master now? I wonder if I can have the honor to meet him?"
“My master has long been a recluse, and has almost never set foot in the secular world, nor has he ever wanted to be bound by anything. So although I am his disciple, I have never known where my master is or where he wants to go. Only when I have no choice but to ask for help from my master will he show up.” Yun Che repeated what he had said to Master Gu Cang exactly.
His fictitious master, "Old Man Duotian", had apparently been believed by the four holy places and had posed a great threat to them. Since this "master" was so useful, of course he had to do his best to maintain him.
"That's a pity." The Sea Emperor responded casually, and suddenly changed his tone and said: "The Moon-Slaying Demon Cave is the biggest taboo of our Sea Palace. Outsiders must not be allowed to enter. However, the barrier of the Moon-Slaying Demon Cave has not been opened for 1,300 years. It is time for this emperor to send people in to investigate whether there are any changes. In addition, our Sea Palace has already received ten 'Six Flavor Emperor Pills' from you. If we refuse you, wouldn't it seem that our Supreme Sea Palace is untrustworthy?"
Yun Che’s eyes widened… Hmm? Six Flavor Emperor Pills? What the hell!?
Could it be referring to... Overlord Pill?
Damn! What kind of a name did Ziji come up with?
Moreover...what the Sea Emperor said was completely his own initiative to acknowledge his relationship with the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce!
“Thank you, Senior Sea Emperor, for your help!” Yun Che said happily.
"You don't have to be happy too soon." The Sea Emperor said coldly, "The seal of the Moon Slaughter Demon Cave can only be opened once every five hundred years, and each time it is opened for only a hundred breaths! After a hundred breaths, the barrier will be forcibly closed. Even if it is my Supreme Ocean Palace, there is no way to force it open within five hundred years. This is to prevent the Yin Qi inside from leaking out and causing trouble for the continent. And the Netherworld Udumbara Flower is said to bloom once every twenty-four years, and will wither after three days. It is almost a fool's dream for you to encounter a blooming Netherworld Udumbara Flower in just a hundred breaths. What's more, it is unknown whether there are still Netherworld Udumbara Flowers!"
"So, even if you enter the Moon Slaughter Devil Cave, it's basically a wasted trip."
“I know all of this. But even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I must give it a try.” Yun Che said without hesitation.
“Since you are so persistent…if I agree to let you explore the Moon-Slaying Demon Cave, when would you like to enter?” asked the Sea Emperor.
“The sooner the better!” Yun Che thought for a moment and said, “If possible, I would like to go today.”
“Okay!” The Sea Emperor nodded slowly: “In that case, I will grant your wish! Now, I can send someone to take you to the Moon-Slaying Demon Cave!”
