Peerless God Emperor

0The Great Luo Heaven was located at the highest point of the Jiuxuan Galaxy, and it was also the place closest to the stars. Therefore, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth here was extremely dense, and those with powerful cultivations could even directly absorb the power of the Great Dao contained in the stars.    

    

However, not everyone could withstand such a powerful force. Only those who had reached the Heavenly Venerate Realm could draw the Great Dao into their bodies. If their cultivation was not strong enough, it was very likely that they would explode and die.    

    

Apart from the superior cultivation environment, the Great Luo Heaven was also the center of power in the Jiuxuan Galaxy. The reason was that the Divine King Palace was located in the Great Luo Heaven.    

    

In the current knowledge of many people in the Divine World, the major powers were the strongest forces in the Divine World. However, those who had survived since the ancient times were very clear that the Divine King Palace was the strongest force in the Divine World.    

    

Ever since the Divine King had fallen, the Divine King Palace had put down its authority and stopped interfering with the matters of the Thirty-three Heavens. The various palaces also started to govern themselves. Over time, the people of the later generations knew very little about the Divine King Palace, and they had never heard of the Divine King Palace's existence, let alone the glory of the Divine King Palace in the past.    

    

However, the core figures of the top forces vaguely knew some things. The Divine King Palace had not been destroyed, but it had always existed in the Great Luo Heaven. It was just that for some unknown reason, it did not interfere with the matters of the Thirty-three Heaves.    

    

Perhaps one day, the Divine King Palace would appear in front of the world and regain control of the Divine Realm's order.    

    

The Great Luo Heaven.    

    

The majestic and imposing palace towered between the clouds and mist, giving off a hazy feeling. Even so, it still gave people a strong sense of shock, and they wanted to enter and take a look.    

    

At this moment, a golden God Light directly passed through the clouds and mist, and then descended outside a palace.    

    

The God Light dissipated, and a group of people appeared there. It was Qin Xuan, Fen Old Master, and the others.    

    

"Is this the Divine King Palace?"    

    

Qin Xuan sized up the palace in front of him. Even though he had seen many extraordinary palaces, he could not help but feel shocked in his heart.    

    

The Divine King Palace was incomparably vast, and it was impossible to see the end of it. There were at least a thousand palaces inside. Among all the forces he had been to, no force was as grand and magnificent as the Divine King Palace.    

    

Qin Xuan was a little excited. This was the place where the Divine King had cultivated in the past. There should be a lot of extraordinary cultivation grounds inside, right?    

    

Qin Lei, Ximen Guyan, and the others looked at the palace in front of them with a slightly absent mind. They felt that it was a bit unreal. Were they going to live here in the future?    

    

It really felt like a dream.    

    

Just as they were feeling shocked in their hearts, they saw beams of light shoot out from the palace. In the next moment, many figures appeared in front of Qin Xuan and the others. They all had old faces and white hair. They did not release any aura from their bodies, and they looked no different from ordinary old people.    

    

"We greet the Divine King!"    

    

The elders bowed to Qin Xuan in unison, their expressions incomparably respectful. Their bodies trembled slightly, revealing the excitement in their hearts.    

    

Seeing this scene, Qin Xuan's gaze couldn't help but freeze. He then looked at Fen Old Master beside him and asked, "They are?"    

    

"They are the guards of the Divine King Palace." Fen Old Master said, "They survived the ancient war and have been cultivating in the Divine King Palace, waiting for the arrival of the new Divine King."    

    

Qin Xuan's heart trembled. The cultivation of these old men was shockingly strong. Most of them had reached the Third Calamity, and he was unable to see through the cultivation of a few of them. They should have broken through to the Third Calamity. With such powerful strength, they were actually just guards?    

    

How strong was the Divine King Palace back then?    

    

Fen Old Master seemed to have seen the shock in Qin Xuan's heart, and he said, "For a million years, they have been cultivating in the Divine King palace. With the help of the many top cultivation resources in the palace, it is not surprising that they have such a low cultivation."    

    

"Your Excellency is right. Our talent and strength were the weakest in the Divine King Palace back then. After cultivating for a million years, we only have our current cultivation. It has already caused the Divine King Palace to be ashamed." A black-robed old man in the middle said with a bitter smile.    

    

"Your Excellency." A strange light flashed across Qin Xuan's eyes. Fen Old Master's identity was the Venerable Envoy?    

    

"Take them and settle down. I have something to say to the Divine King." Fen Old Master looked at them and said.    

    

"Yes." The old man in the black robe replied respectfully. Then, he looked at Yan Qingyun and the others with a kind smile. "Please come this way."    

    

"Let's go first." Yan Qingyun said to Qin Xuan. Qin Xuan nodded with a smile. "Go."    

    

The guards took Yan Qingyun and the others and left. Fen Old Master looked at Qin Xuan and said, "I'll take you to a place."    

    

"What place?" Qin Xuan asked curiously.    

    

"You'll know later." Fen Old Master kept him in suspense. After saying that, he walked in a certain direction. Qin Xuan suppressed the curiosity in his heart and followed closely behind Fen Old Master.    

    

The Divine King Palace was very vast. Palaces were arranged in a disorderly manner. There were fake mountains and flowing water between the palaces. There were pavilions and towers, as if they were natural paintings. It made people feel happy.    

    

Fen Old Master and Qin Xuan seemed to be strolling in a leisurely manner, but in fact, they were very fast. Each step crossed the void, and they passed through the palaces. However, with Qin Xuan's current strength, he was still able to remember many sceneries in the Divine King Palace. His heart was unable to calm down for a long time.    

    

After an unknown period of time, the two of them finally stopped. In front of them was a palace that was thousands of feet tall. The palace was faintly filled with an ancient aura, as if it had existed for countless years.    

    

Qin Xuan stared at the golden plaque above the palace. There were three vigorous and powerful words carved on it.    

    

Divine Palace.    

    

"Divine, do you mean the experts of the Divine King Palace?" Qin Xuan thought to himself.    

    

"Let's go in and take a look." Fen Old Master said, his voice carrying a sense of sadness, as if he was recalling the past.    

    

Qin Xuan's mood became heavy as he walked step by step towards the palace in front of him.    

    

The moment he entered the palace, Qin Xuan was shocked by the scene in front of him.    

    

One statue after another stood orderly in the hall. There were humans and Demonic Beasts among them. Each statue was lifelike, and their eyes faintly contained a divine charm, as if they were alive.    

    

Qin Xuan swept his gaze across the statues and his heart trembled violently. He saw many familiar statues, the statues of the Demon Clan's eighteen ancestors, the statues of the Sky Devouring Empyrean, the Reincarnation Empyrean, and the Void Empyrean Sovereign.    

    

At this moment, he understood the significance of the Divine Palace.    

    

It was a place to commemorate the gods who had sacrificed themselves for the Divine Realm.    

    

Although they were no longer in the world, they had once sacrificed their lives to protect the Divine Realm. It could be said that they had made eternal contributions. Their names should be engraved on the Virtue Tablet of the Divine Realm, and they should be worshipped by future generations.    

    

Previously, Fen Old Master had told him that there were many people waiting for him in the Divine King Palace. It must be the statues here.    

    

"The Divine Palace was built after the ancient war. There are a total of one hundred and eight statues. Without their sacrifices, the Divine Realm would not have been able to live for a million years." Fen Old Master said slowly, his voice carrying a sense of sadness.    

    

Qin Xuan looked at Fen Old Master and found that there was a hint of tears in his eyes. There should be many statues of Fen Old Master's good friends. It was easy to imagine how sad Fen Old Master was.    

    

In front of him, Fen Old Master had never shown the slightest hint of sadness. He had always been very strict. This made him think that Fen Old Master was cold and ruthless. In order to achieve his goal, he could do anything. Only now did he understand Fen Old Master's good intentions.    

    

In order to give him pressure and force him to keep moving forward.    

    

"Do you know why I brought you here?" Fen Old Master looked at Qin Xuan and asked. His expression was very serious, as if he was asking a very important question.    

    

"Understood." Qin Xuan nodded seriously and said, "The first thing I should do when I take over the position of God King is to pay homage to the ancestors who sacrificed themselves in the God Realm. I will carry out their will and protect the peace of the God Realm."    

    

"That's right." Fen Old Master nodded and said, "The position of God King not only gives you honor, but also responsibility. From the moment you stepped into the Gods Palace, you have carried the will of the gods on your body. In the future, you must bring the will of the gods to strengthen the power of the God Realm. Only then will you not let the gods rest in peace."    

    

Fen Old Master's voice was not loud, but every word was deeply imprinted in Qin Xuan's mind. Qin Xuan's eyes were filled with determination. No matter what, he would not let down the expectations of the gods, and he would not let down the trust of the people of the God Realm.    

    

"Do these statues contain the will of the gods?" Qin Xuan asked.    

    

"No." Fen Old Master shook his head and said, "These statues were forged after the gods fell. Although they were vested with a unique charm, they were in fact just ordinary statues. They do not have the power of the gods."    

    

Qin Xuan was a little disappointed. He thought that the statues contained the will of the gods, so he could still have a chance to talk to them. Unfortunately, the reality was not as good as he had imagined. He could only admire them.    

    

"If you want to talk to them, you can go to their factions. Before they died, they left behind their inheritances in their factions. The inheritances contain the will of the gods." Fen Old Master continued, "However, without a faction, it will be very difficult to find the will of the gods left behind by the gods. We can only depend on fate."    

    

Qin Xuan nodded his head. For experts like the Sky Empyrean, the Reincarnation Empyrean, and the ancestors of the Demon God Palace, their inheritances were all in the factions behind them. For experts like Void Empyrean Sovereign, who did not establish a faction, their inheritance was scattered all over the place, and it was not necessarily possible to find them.    

    

"Did the Divine King Palace send anyone to search for their inheritances?" Qin Xuan suddenly asked.    

    

"Of course they did. However, they only found a part of it. There are still many that they have not found." Fen Old Master sighed softly and said, "The Divine Realm is too vast. Even the Divine King Palace at its peak was not easy to find everyone's inheritance. Now, the Divine King Palace is lacking manpower, so the difficulty is even greater."    

    

Hearing this, Qin Xuan nodded his head lightly. On the way here, he had learned some things about the Divine King Palace from Fen Old Master. During the ancient war, the Divine King Palace suffered a great loss, and then they had never asked about the outside world. Their strength could be said to be worlds apart from their peak.    

    

"Why have they been avoiding the world?" Qin Xuan asked in puzzlement.    

    

The Divine King Palace was originally the most powerful force in the Divine World. Although the Divine King had fallen, the Divine King Palace still had a very high prestige. As long as the Divine King Palace was willing to recruit people, there would definitely be many experts willing to serve them.    

    

"There are many reasons." Fen Old Master's expression was solemn as he said, "Although the Divine King Palace has prestige, the top level combat strength has almost all fallen during the ancient war. Only some of the lower level characters are left. Just by relying on them, they are unable to support the Divine King Palace."    

    

Qin Xuan's heart trembled. The top level combat strength had almost all fallen. This could no longer be described as tragic. Such a heavy blow was practically fatal to the Divine King Palace.    

    

Just as Fen Old Master had said, without top level combat strength, just the bottom level characters were unable to support the Divine King Palace.    

    

Even if the Divine King Palace had a very high prestige, if the people knew the truth about the Divine King Palace, they would no longer be as reverent towards the Divine King Palace as they were before. Instead, they might even be greedy and want to plunder the cultivation resources in the Divine King Palace.    

    

This was the evil of human nature. It was very difficult to change.    

    

Qin Xuan suddenly thought of something and asked again, "The Divine King Palace has always been aloof from the world. Would there be anyone who would suspect it?"    

    

"Naturally, there will be people who will doubt it, but no one dares to investigate the truth." Fen Old Master said indifferently, "The dignity of the Divine King Palace has always been there. Without absolute certainty, no one dares to provoke the Divine King Palace carelessly. Otherwise, the outcome will be very miserable."    

    

Qin Xuan nodded thoughtfully. As long as the Divine King Palace did not make a move, no one would know the truth of the Divine King Palace. Even if they had doubts, they could only think about it in their hearts and did not dare to make a move to probe.    

    

"However, in these years, there are also some people who can't sit still and are ready to make a move." Fen Old Master said. There was a sharp light flashing in his deep eyes, as if he had become a different person.    

    

Qin Xuan's expression suddenly froze. Was there really someone who dared to have ideas about the Divine King Palace?    

    

"Are you sure who it is?" Qin Xuan asked in a deep voice. If someone dared to have ideas about the Divine Palace, he must not be an ordinary person. It was very likely that he was a peak expert. Otherwise, he would not have such courage.    

    

"You have already seen it." Fen Old Master said calmly.    

    

Under the dark night, Qin Xuan stood alone at the top of a lofty mountain, looking at the stars in the distance. His heart was filled with heaviness. His thoughts were like the fog in the night, spreading out and entangling with the theme that made people shudder in fear. This was the evil of human nature, just like the darkness in the abyss, as if it could never be driven away by light.    

    

Qin Xuan sighed deeply, as if he wanted to spit out all the heaviness in his heart. However, as he sighed, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind like a bolt of lightning that pierced through the night sky. He turned his head to look at the old man beside him, his eyes shining with a doubtful light. "Fen Old Master, the Divine King Palace has always been aloof from worldly affairs and has transcended the disputes of the world. Could it be that no one has ever suspected their true intentions?"    

    

Fen Old Master nodded slightly. His gaze was as deep as an ancient well, as if he could see through people's hearts. He slowly opened his mouth and said in a low and powerful voice, "Naturally, there will be people who will doubt it. The mysteriousness and dignity of the Divine King Palace always make people feel reverence and curiosity. However, no one dares to easily probe the truth of the Divine King Palace."    

    

Qin Xuan frowned, as if he was attracted by Fen Old Master's words. He couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He imagined those people who dared to pry into the Divine King Palace's secrets. In the endless darkness, they would lose their way and eventually fall into an irrecoverable situation. That kind of fear and despair seemed to be able to penetrate space and pierce straight into his heart.
