World's Strongest Martial Warrior

1"No..." The man with the fierce demeanor was a portrait of despair and fear. But as the word 'no' left his lips, a flash of sword light impaled him, leaving a gaping, bloody cavity in his chest. The formidable man's Great Luo Immortal Crystals and immortal soul were obliterated by Peter Parker's blade, reducing him to nothing more than a lifeless body in a crimson pool.    

    

With the ferocious man dispatched effortlessly, Peter Parker's gaze swept over the onlookers. "Does anyone else have an issue?" The crowd could only stare back at Peter, gripped by fear, silent and still. They had not anticipated the staggering power of the young man in black. The slain adversary had been a peak Great Luo Immortal Venerable, a force to be reckoned with, and save for the Hao Family's Taiyi Immortal Venerable, no one present would have dared claim the ability to defeat him with ease. Yet, here stood this youth, who had extinguished such a life with a mere flick of his sword.    

    

"Immortal Force constrains both heaven and earth!" Elder Xuan, standing beside Hao Ning, regarded Peter with a newfound gravity. To the untrained, the subtleties were imperceptible, but as a Primordial Immortal Venerable, Elder Xuan could discern that Peter had wielded the Immortal Dao Law at a level akin to their own. In essence, even if the young man in black had not fully ascended to the rank of Primordial Immortal Venerable, he had mastered the Primordial Law and was on the cusp of such a breakthrough.    

    

"Since there are no objections, let's proceed," Hao Ning declared, casting a meaningful glance at Peter before addressing the short-haired youth beside him, "Senior Brother, you've been here before. Please, lead the way." The young man with the cropped hair nodded and set the pace for the group.    

    

Trailing at the rear, Peter Parker followed, his keen eyes absorbing the surroundings. A flicker of surprise crossed his expression. "Isn't this a branch palace of the Sky Emperor Palace?" He had previously visited the Heavenly Profound Hall, one of the thirty-six halls of the Heavenly Emperor Palace. He had assumed that this branch palace would bear resemblance to the Heavenly Profound Hall, but the reality before him was starkly different.    

    

The Northern Chill Immortal King had previously explored this area. Moreover, the Hao Family of the Demon Suppression Immortal Region claimed these ruins belonged to the Ancient Heavenly Emperor Palace. Even if this site wasn't one of the 36 branch palaces, it undoubtedly had a significant connection to the Heavenly Emperor Palace.    

    

Given this, Peter Parker felt compelled to conduct his own investigation.    

    

The expansive Immortal Land was tranquil, and Peter Parker's party encountered no dangers on their journey. Guided by a short-haired youth, they swiftly reached a colossal ancient palace.    

    

Perched atop an immortal mountain that soared 100,000 meters high, the palace was enshrouded in clouds and mist, revealing only the silhouette of a grand structure reminiscent of a celestial abode.    

    

From afar, they could sense the presence of the supreme Laws of the Immortal Dao emanating from the palace. Merely gazing upon it stirred a profound desire for enlightenment within them.    

    

"Truly, this is a magnificent Immortal destiny!" they exclaimed, their eyes alight with fervor as they beheld the Heavenly Palace.    

    

The Dao runes radiating from the palace were extraordinary, prompting them to wonder about the potential opportunities that lay within.    

    

"This is it, young master," the short-haired youth announced, gazing at the heavenly palace crowning the Myriad Immortal Mountain. On his previous visit, he had been fortunate enough to harness the palace's Dao aura, allowing him to master the control of heaven and earth and ascend to the Zenith Heaven Immortal Venerable realm.    

    

He had attempted to enter the immortal palace to uncover its secrets, but despite employing every technique at his disposal, he couldn't approach it. Reluctantly, he had to abandon his efforts.    

    

"Let's take a closer look," suggested Hao Ning, taking a deep breath to calm his excitement before soaring skyward toward the Heavenly Palace.    

    

Seeing this, the others followed suit without hesitation, each taking to the air and heading for the palace.    

    

In no time, they reached a point three thousand meters from the Heavenly Palace.    

    

"Young master, we can't advance any further," the youth informed him. "The Heaven Palace Sect has a boundary of three thousand meters. A mysterious force seems to seal everything within it. If we cross into this perimeter, our cultivation will be completely suppressed, reducing us to mere mortals, incapable of even maintaining our position in the sky."    

    

At that moment, the short-haired young man spoke up suddenly.    

    

"Is it really that extreme?"    

    

One of the Great Luo Immortal Venerables, skeptical of the young man's claim, stepped forward to see for himself.    

    

But in an instant...    

    

The Great Luo Immortal Venerable faltered, struggling to maintain his balance as he nearly plummeted into the seemingly endless abyss.    

    

Had it not been for the swift intervention of a fellow Great Luo Immortal Venerable, who bore a striking resemblance to him, catching him in time, he would have tumbled into the void.    

    

"Goodness... Such a formidable force!"    

    

The Great Luo Immortal Venerable exclaimed, his voice tinged with residual fear.    

    

With just one step, his cultivation base appeared to be drained by some mysterious force, leaving him powerless to resist.    

    

He suspected that not even the Primordial Immortal Venerables or Primordial Chaos Immortal Venerables could approach this Heavenly Palace.    

    

Witnessing this, Hao Ning turned to the elder beside him. "Elder Xuan, have you discovered anything?"    

    

Elder Xuan, a seasoned Primordial Immortal Venerable from the Hao Family, was rich in experience and wisdom. Hao Ning now pinned his hopes on him.    

    

"This appears to be an Immortal Dao Law," Elder Xuan responded thoughtfully. "If I'm not mistaken, there are Immortal Dao Laws established by Immortal Kings surrounding the Heavenly Palace. I'm at a loss as well. The only option is to study the Immortal Dao Laws before us. Perhaps we'll uncover something valuable."    

    

After considering for a moment, Hao Ning looked up at the group and announced, "Everyone, our entry into the Heavenly Palace is currently barred. I urge you all to study the Laws of the Immortal Dao within the Heavenly Palace."    

    

The group remained silent, each person distancing themselves to focus on understanding the Immortal Dao laws emanating from the Heavenly Palace.    

    

Although access to the Heavenly Palace was denied for now, no one expressed frustration.    

    

After all, the opportunity to study the Laws of the Immortal Dao within the Heavenly Palace was in itself a tremendous boon. Gleaning even a fraction of understanding could yield significant rewards.    

    

As the group engaged in their contemplation of the Immortal Dao Laws, Peter Parker stood motionless, hands clasped behind his back.    

    

Despite the extraordinary nature of the Immortal Dao Laws within the Heavenly Palace, Peter Parker felt no rush to grasp their essence. His keen eyes cut through the clouds before him, settling on the majestic plaque hanging over the main entrance of the Heavenly Palace.    

    

Heavenly Astral Palace!    

    

As Peter Parker took in the three ancient characters inscribed on the plaque, he came to understand the origins of the Heavenly Palace. The grand edifice before him was one of the 36 branch palaces, housing the esteemed Heavenly Astral Hall.
