The palace gates were already sealed, but this presented no problem to Su Rui, who had mastered the Five Elements Escape Technique. He skillfully executed the technique, easily passing through the thick palace walls and successfully infiltrating the palace. However, upon entering the forbidden area, he was stunned by the sight before him.
Within the palace, whether it was the magnificent palace buildings, the fertile land, the lush vegetation, or the various living things, including humans, fish, and birds, all of them exuded a faint divine light. Although this divine light was faint, it gave people a sense of sacredness and solemnity.
What surprised Su Rui even more was the surge of a powerful divine force sweeping in all directions. This force was refining everything within the palace at an astonishing speed, as if to purify it completely. Even an outsider like Su Rui could not escape its influence.
Faced with such a formidable force, Su Rui dared not afford to be careless. He quickly summoned the Greater and Lesser Sandalwood Buddha Lights, constructing a solid layer of defense around his body. This layer of light formed a barrier, stubbornly resisting the pervasive divine light. Despite this, Su Rui could still feel the overwhelming pressure, forcing him to exert his full strength.
He raised his head, his gaze piercing through layers of obstruction, gazing at the very center of the palace's central axis. There, a golden sun hung, obscuring the heavens and radiating a dazzling light. This sun was so enormous, practically occupying the entire sky, it was truly awe-inspiring.
Through his clairvoyance, Su Rui's sharp vision revealed the scene behind the golden sun. He had initially thought there was only a golden sun, but in reality, it concealed a divine being, its back facing the palace gates! This divine being was tall and mighty, standing a hundred feet tall, towering like a towering mountain. Even just from behind, it exuded an unparalleled majesty and solemnity.
That golden sun was actually the Dharma Wheel behind the divine being's head. It continuously released a brilliant radiance, illuminating the entire palace and suffusing it with a golden hue. The light was so dazzling that it was difficult to look directly at. Su Rui realized that this was likely the Emperor's divine body, revealed as a divine king. He alone possessed such a commanding majesty. And the all-pervasive, all-refining divine light was perhaps simply the unconscious emanation of the Dharma Wheel behind him.
Su Rui was somewhat concerned about Su Qingshan's safety, so he casually reached out and grabbed a passing eunuch, hoping that he would lead him to the Shangshu Province's office. However, when he tightly grasped the eunuch's arm, he was surprised to find that the eunuch's state was very strange, as if he was in a state of half-human, half-god, gradually transforming from human to ghost.
Seeing the young eunuch's face reveal an expression of great fortune, Su Rui did not interrupt his wonderful transformation. Instead, he was very curious about what kind of existence the young eunuch would eventually become, and decided to observe quietly.
This mysterious transformation did not affect the young eunuch's consciousness. Despite being held tightly by Su Rui, he did not resist, perhaps fearing that Su Rui would suddenly kill him. When he learned that Su Rui simply wanted to go to the Shangshu Province office, the young eunuch pointed in the direction of the divine figure and signaled that Su Rui could pull him along to fly there.
As they approached the divine being, the divine light surrounding them grew thicker and denser. The powerful pressure emanating from the divine being also grew stronger, creating an indescribable sense of oppression.
Fortunately, Su Rui did not gain much on his journey north, but he accumulated a lot of sandalwood Buddha lights. Although they were consumed quickly in order to resist the erosion of the divine light, they were just a drop in the bucket for Su Rui.
Soon, Su Rui, led by the young eunuch, sneaked into the office of the Shangshu Province and found Su Qingshan, who was still busy writing despite being severely eroded by the divine light.
At this time, Su Qingshan's face was full of fatigue, and his eyes were bloodshot, but he exuded a powerful aura.
"Brother!" Su Rui shouted anxiously.
However, Su Qingshan seemed not to hear Su Rui's call and was still busy writing.
Seeing this scene, Su Rui's heart sank. He knew that the current situation was very critical. If it was not handled in time, Su Qingshan would probably be eroded even more severely by the divine light.
He hurriedly pulled Su Qingshan up and used his great magic power to seal the divine light that had invaded his body and soul, preventing it from continuing to erode Su Qingshan's body and soul.
Afterwards, he threw Su Qingshan into the thunder space contained in the Black God's Seal, and adjusted the rules of the thunder space with his own will, causing the thunder in the sky to continue falling and strike Su Qingshan.
Su Rui watched Su Qingshan, screaming and fleeing in the Thunder Dimension, struck by lightning. He watched as the divine light within him gradually dissipated as the lightning continued to strike. He secretly estimated that it would take three days and three nights of continuous lightning strikes to completely eliminate the divine light within him. So, he asked the little fox demon he had left in the Thunder Dimension to watch over Su Qingshan for a while, and then he withdrew from the Thunder Dimension.
After dealing with Su Qingshan, Su Rui leisurely strolled through the palace. He was curious about what the divine being actually looked like and wanted to see their true form with his own eyes. However, after circling the mountain-like divine being, he was surprised to find that no matter which angle he looked at it, he could only see its back. He knew that the divine being must have used some magical spell to deliberately obscure its true appearance from the outside world.
