C424 Forbidden Land of Xuandu
1From the time he appeared to the time he left for 30 to 40 breaths, the high and mighty Emperor had never looked at Su Chen and Wild Bull. He seemed to have no interest in anything around him. His eyes were only filled with beauty. There was only enjoyment. Even when talking to his own brother, he seemed to be very impatient. This made Su Chen sigh and sigh in his heart. He was heartless and incompetent.
"It would be strange if the Gravity Dynasty isn't in chaos if such a person who doesn't have principles became the emperor. It seems that it might be a good thing for the State Preceptor to compete for the throne with Eldest Heavenly King." Su Chen said to Wild Bull Chief Commander via divine sense.
" That's right. I remember that senior granduncle once said that although the current Emperor is greedy for pleasure, he's right. I remember that senior granduncle once said that although the Emperor is lazy, he still has some king skills. This is truly disappointing. " Wild Bull Chief Commander shook his head and sighed as he spoke to Su Chen via divine sense.
While the two of them were conversing in secret, a Commander of Divine Guards walked out from the darkness. His appearance startled Su Chen. Before entering this room, Su Chen had already conducted a strict inspection of this place. However, he didn't discover any living beings. At this moment, this person seemed to have walked out of thin air. This proved that he was hiding something even more profound than Su Chen.
However, when he thought about the Divine Guards that chased after Shadow Fairy at the beginning, his combat strength was unparalleled. He was extremely domineering, and the one with the weakest strength among them... He was also much stronger than the Commander of Divine Guards that he saw later on. It could be seen that the Divine Guards had a different organization. His strength was also very similar.
Although the man in front of him was only wearing a commander's uniform, the cold and terrifying Qi that was emitted from his body made Su Chen secretly raise his vigilance.
"His Majesty has already agreed to your request. I am in charge of sending you all into Forbidden Area of Profound Capital." The commander's voice was as cold as iron, without a trace of emotion.
Under his lead, the group left the palace to show off their abilities. They headed northwest of the Imperial City. As they continued to move forward, the number of buildings around them decreased. Moreover, the style was also somewhat ancient. An ancient feeling began to pour into the minds of everyone present. It caused them to feel a little emotional.
"Be careful of this evil intent. It can erode our wills. Decay our confidence, immediately gather your spirit energy to resist, to avoid getting hit" Su Chen felt dizzy, his confidence was damaged, and he suddenly woke up. He sent a sound transmission to warn Wild Bull, and at the same time, he used the power of the stars to deconstruct the feeling of the vicissitudes of life.
Under the effect of the destructive factor of the star power, the ancient feeling was pushed out of his body and seeped into his bronze body. This made Su Chen's body white and strong, and his mind suddenly became clear.
A hundred mirrors of light appeared on the surface of his body, and the mirrors reflected the history of nearly three hundred years. Those scenes formed an ancient river that flowed away, making people understand the preciousness of the passage of time.
In the vast history, Su Chen seemed to have captured a trace of spirituality in the time element. This made his Elemental Bead shine brightly, and his mind was clear and transparent. Under the benign effect of his body and mind, his soul image also released surging soul aura. It formed an image of a star that blossomed with dazzling rings of energy above his head.
Wild Bull Chief Commander, who was standing by the side, was reminded by Su Chen. He widened his eyes and directly spat out those ancient thoughts that had turned into gray air streams. His method of dispelling them made Su Chen feel uneasy.
That Commander of Divine Guards was a super expert in the palace. He was already used to all the taboos in this place. Naturally, he would not be affected by these negative energies. However, when they saw Su Chen and Wild Bull coming here for the first time, they could easily remove the Qi from those ancient palaces. A hint of surprise flashed across their eyes.
After walking along the desolate ancient path to the end, Su Chen saw a hundred-meter wide building. It was an octagonal shaped palace. A nine-clawed golden dragon was coiled on the roof of the palace, and an octagonal kirin hung on the roof. On the eight pillars that were three meters in diameter, there were snakes all over their bodies, and there were two giant stone lions about five meters tall at the entrance.
The golden dragon was the ruler of the Golden Dragon Mansion, and the qilin was giving out auspicious signs. The spiritual snake was spitting out in all directions, and the stone lion was suppressing the evil!
Apart from that, with the Eight Horn Ancient Palace as the center, the 36 ancient palaces that crisscrossed in the surroundings also formed a Heavenly Astral Formation. In the middle was a small path paved with Evil Warding Stones. If one looked down from the sky, they would be able to see that the entire imperial city was a grand formation. Many of the buildings were the eye of the grand formation. The Eight Horn Ancient Palace was only a part of the grand formation, but even so... But still bursting with endless dominance.
Such a setup turned the entire Imperial City into a devil cage, suppressing the Fierce Beasts and Devils in Profound Capital for all eternity, preventing them from seeping into the ground and harming others. It could be said to be impregnable and unbreakable.
When the commander brought everyone to the entrance of the Eight Horn Ancient Palace, a row of tall steel shadows appeared. Their bodies were flickering with ancient killing intent, causing Su Chen to feel a chill run down his spine. Behind this row of black shadows, there was also a skinny figure wrapped in a black robe.
"Who is it?"
"What do you mean?"
The black-robed man swept his gaze across the crowd and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"This subordinate is under the orders of His Majesty to send the three of you into the Forbidden Area of Profound Capital. I hope that Sir will allow us to enter." The commander bowed and raised a token.
"Another person wants to enter?"
"You have already entered five groups of people. This means that there are more than a thousand cultivator in the Forbidden Area of Profound Capital. Moreover, this is not the season to eliminate devils. You have sent a large number of cultivator to enter in such a grand manner. The black-robed man's voice was as cold as the cold wind.
"This is the will of His Majesty. This subordinate is only passing on the message on behalf of His Majesty. I hope that Your Majesty can forgive me." The commander only slightly bowed when he heard this and spoke in an extremely humble manner.
"Forget it. I really don't know what that little emperor wants to do. Since he has agreed, all of you can go in." The black-robed man sighed and waved away the steel puppets.
"Thank you, Lord!" The commander nodded at the Seven Heavenly Kings before putting down the token and leaving.
"Come with me!" The black-robed man took the command medallion and led the three towards the Eight Horn Ancient Palace.
As they walked up the stairs, Su Chen could feel the killing intent coming from the hall with every step they took. When they reached the door, the ancient feeling that assaulted their faces sent chills down Su Chen's spine. The 36,000 pores all over his body gave birth to a kind of genuine fear.
The entrance of the hall was like a violent gust of wind, giving people an invisible pressure at all times. The black-robed man wasn't affected in the slightest, but Su Chen felt as if a huge mountain had appeared on his body. The pressure made him unable to breathe. On the other hand, Wild Bull Chief Commander's condition was much better. He kept taking deep breaths to strengthen his resistance against external forces.2
As for the Seven Heavenly Kings who did not have any subjective consciousness, they acted as if nothing had happened. They were not affected at all.
