Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven
#2610 - The Secret of the Shrine
A massive mountain range stretched across the horizon.
This mountain range was extraordinary, its peaks reflecting colorful light, making the clouds in the sky above as beautiful as iridescent rosy clouds.
When Jun Wuxie saw the mountain range, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
Such a sight must be extraordinary.
The Divine Palace should be located within that mountain range.
They continued forward, but did not see any living creatures along the way.
The Divine Palace's reputation in the Land of Disorder was world-shaking, causing countless creatures to tremble in fear.
However, the number of creatures within the Divine Palace didn't seem to be very high.
They didn't see any living creatures until they reached the vicinity of the mountain range.
After entering the mountain range, not long after penetrating deep inside, a range of peaks shrouded in auspicious light came into view.
On those peaks were built jade towers and magnificent palaces, their aura majestic and filled with divinity.
Finally, he saw figures moving between the jade towers and palaces on those peaks.
There weren't many, only a few dozen.
Although the distance was a bit far, he could basically tell that they weren't Chaos King-level creatures, but Chaos-level creatures.
These creatures all looked like humans, and most of them were uniformly dressed in black robes.
Jun Wuxie continued to sneak in, using the Minor Space Art to conceal himself, and wasn't detected along the way, eventually arriving inside the Divine Palace.
He used his divine sense to sense the surroundings, basically figuring out the situation within the Divine Palace.
The Divine Palace indeed didn't have many members, with a total of only a few hundred.
However, although the number was small, the quality was extremely astonishing.
Here, even the weakest in terms of talent and strength were Chaos-level creatures!
"The vast majority are actually humans, and judging from the aura within their bodies, they are all cultivating some kind of profound Taoist techniques.
These Divine Palace people dressed in black robes have a very heavy aura of bloodthirst.
There must be something fishy about this Divine Palace."
Only after truly arriving here did Jun Wuxie realize that the Divine Palace was completely different from what the world imagined.
The entire Divine Palace had a total of seven peaks.
Creatures above the Chaos King level were distributed on the seven peaks.
Among them, the central peak had the most Chaos King-level auras within its jade towers and palaces.
He sneaked into the main peak of the Divine Palace, approached those jade towers and palaces, and locked his divine sense onto two women dressed in palace attire, with noble and dignified demeanors.
The two women appeared to be in their thirties, very mature and charming, with every smile and frown exuding charm.
Especially their eyes, which had a kind of bewitching feeling.
At this time, the two women were discussing the matter of the two protectors who had been sent out.
It had been many days since they were sent out to gather information, and according to the time, they should have returned long ago.
However, until today, the two protectors were still nowhere to be seen, without any news.
"Those two bastards, it's been so many days, and they can't even handle such a small matter!"
One of the women in palace attire spoke with anger in her voice.
"With their strength, they wouldn't encounter any danger just by investigating the news.
Unless they disobeyed orders and exposed their identities."
The two women were the Palace Masters of the Divine Palace, the First Palace Master and the Second Palace Master.
At this time, they were somewhat annoyed by the two protector powerhouses who had been dispatched.
As long as they didn't encounter Shi, with their eighteenth-level peak Chaos King-level strength, it was impossible for them to have an accident, and they should have returned long ago!
From this, it could be seen that they were eager to claim credit and couldn't hold back, so they must have taken action against Shi.
The result was obviously that they were defeated and died at Shi's hands!
Only in this way could it be explained.
The two Palace Masters of the Divine Palace looked frosty because the two had disobeyed orders and acted without authorization.
"Two idiots, stirring up a hornet's nest!"
Their original intention was to find Shi's location in the Land of Disorder, so that they could send a powerhouse to capture him.
They never expected that the two would disobey orders and act on their own.
Fortunately, Shi had appeared in the Hundred Realms City of the Land of Disorder in a high-profile manner, so he probably wouldn't make trouble because of this matter.
The Palace Master of the Divine Palace summoned a person in, an old man, whose aura was much stronger than the two Chaos Kings that Jun Wuxie had killed before.
This person was a nineteenth-level powerhouse, also a Chaos King-level, and his identity was as an Elder of the Divine Palace.
"Greetings, First Palace Master and Second Palace Master, I wonder what you have summoned your subordinate for?"
After the old man came in, he respectfully saluted.
"Those two haven't returned for so many days, they must have had an accident.
This Palace Master orders you to take a few people to the Hundred Realms City to investigate Shi's situation.
It's best to probe his true strength.
Remember, don't take action yourself, you can use those outsiders, or other indigenous creatures of the Land of Disorder!"
"Yes, this subordinate will take people there immediately."
"Remember, your mission is to investigate the situation and test his true strength!
If you disobey orders and act without authorization, this Palace Master will make your life worse than death!"
The Elder trembled upon hearing this, hurriedly responded, and solemnly guaranteed, before leaving.
Jun Wuxie had been hiding in the void outside the hall.
Although his purpose was to settle accounts with the Divine Palace, he didn't intend to take action for the time being.
"Elder sister, do you think that Shi's bloodline source is truly miraculous?
We still can't determine what kind of bloodline he has.
According to the information we have obtained, this person is a Chaos Body, but how can a Chaos Body be so strong?
Doesn't elder sister find it strange?"
"Of course, it's not just as simple as a Chaos Body.
No matter how strong a Chaos Body is, it's impossible to compete with our two Chaos King-level protectors in the same realm, let alone kill them.
This person must also have a second bloodline in his body.
That second bloodline is his strongest bloodline, and it most likely has innate attributes!
Otherwise, with his realm, even with the blessing of an exclusive divine artifact, it would be difficult to achieve that level.
This time, Shi appeared in the Hundred Realms City of the Land of Disorder in a high-profile manner, it seems that his realm has greatly improved during this period, so he has such confidence."
"Elder sister's analysis is reasonable.
If this person does have an innate bloodline, then that innate bloodline is probably not weaker than the Holy Kirin's bloodline power that has not been completely awakened!
Originally, according to our plan, we only needed to wait a few more days to use the Holy Kirin as a sacrifice to achieve transformation.
Who would have thought that she would become suspicious of us and secretly run out.
I don't know when she started to suspect us, or whether she suspects our identities!"
"Therefore, we must capture Shi alive.
In this way, not only can we obtain Shi's bloodline source, but we can also use him as bait to bring the Holy Kirin back!
With the Holy Kirin plus Shi, we will definitely be able to reach a higher level than our original plan."
"Yes, after waiting for so many days, it's time to take action.
Shi's growth rate is too fast, if we continue to delay, there may be variables.
Let's improve our strength a little more now, so that it will be more stable.
In case the people under our command fail, then our sisters will take action ourselves."
The Second Palace Master of the Divine Palace had a smile on her face.
The First Palace Master, upon hearing this, had a hint of coldness and ruthlessness emerge on her charming and beautiful face, "You're right, it's time to improve our strength a bit.
We have obtained quite a few innate Nine-Tailed Fox sources over the years.
In order to keep their lives and continue to provide us with essence blood, we have always been afraid to extract too much.
Now, it's time to let them completely dedicate themselves!"
The two Palace Masters of the Divine Palace said, and left side by side.
Jun Wuxie looked at the backs of the two women and quietly followed them.
From the conversation between the two Palace Masters of the Divine Palace, he obtained a lot of important information.
These two people were actually plotting to steal his bloodline source.
Moreover, there was also a problem with their identities, otherwise they would not have said such things as whether the Holy Kirin suspected their identities.
The fox tail that the Heavenly Evolution Sect Leader gave him came from the body of the previous Palace Master of the Divine Palace.
These two people just mentioned the innate Nine-Tailed Fox again.
It seemed that the previous Palace Master of the Divine Palace should be an innate Nine-Tailed Fox, which matched what the Heavenly Evolution Sect Leader said.
In this way, the previous Palace Master of the Divine Palace was not retired, but was imprisoned, and was very miserable, becoming a blood slave to supply them with essence blood.
Did the higher-ups of the Divine Palace know about this?
The previous Palace Master of the Divine Palace must also be at the twentieth-level or above, a Chaos King-level creature.
With this kind of strength, she was a top powerhouse in the Secret Realm, and normally it would be impossible for her to be imprisoned without anyone knowing.
He followed the two Palace Masters all the way to the secret place of the Divine Palace.
There was a cave here, which was a forbidden area of the Divine Palace, with restrictions in place.
Only the Palace Master could personally come to unlock the restrictions and enter it.
After Jun Wuxie followed them into the cave, he went all the way deep underground along the sloping steps, and then came to the end of the long underground corridor.
The two Palace Masters of the Divine Palace stopped at the end of the corridor, standing in front of a stone door, unlocking the seal on it.
From the forbidden area to here, there were actually two seals, each of which was the top seal in this Secret Realm.
Rumble!
As the seal was unlocked, the stone door was pushed open amidst the rumbling sound.
The two walked in, and Jun Wuxie, Wan, Jingya, and Yan Yu also followed.
The light inside was very dim, with only two ever-burning lamps on the stone pillars, their flames like beans.
This was an underground hall, not very large, about a hundred meters in radius.
At the end of the hall, there were many stone pillars, covered with runes and pasted with a large number of talismans, forming a special cage.
Inside were two women, their heads covered with white hair, obscuring their faces, their white clothes were very old and tattered, their ankles and wrists were locked with divine iron chains, and their pipa bones were pierced with divine iron hooks.
The chains were connected to the surrounding stone pillars, making it impossible for them to break free and trapping them here.
As if sensing someone's arrival, the two locked women slowly raised their heads.
The white hair slid to both sides, revealing two extremely beautiful, yet pale faces, their eyes dim and haggard.
However, the instant they saw the two Palace Lords, a sharp light burst from their dim and lifeless eyes, filled with deep hatred and anger.
“Ten thousand years have passed, and you’ve endured until today. I thought you would have long since worn away the sharpness of your youth.
Indeed, your behavior during this long time has been just that, your edge dulled.
This Palace even thought you had resigned yourselves to your fate.
I didn't expect you to show such angry expressions again today.
Is it because of Saint Lin'er?
Heh heh.”
“Back then, we treated you like our own sisters. Any rare resources we had, we would always share with you.
You repaid kindness with enmity, plotting against us, which we could have accepted, but you even let Lin'er off!
She is the last of the Holy Kirin bloodline!”
“Alas, aren’t we descendants of Demon Suppression Masters? How could you trust us?
Isn't this your own problem?
All demons in this world deserve to die. As descendants of Demon Suppression Masters, when we attack you demons, it is acting on behalf of the heavens, an act of justice. What is wrong with that?
We have already allowed you to live for tens of thousands of years; you should be content.
As for Saint Lin'er, since she is a descendant of the Holy Kirin, isn't she also a demon?
If she is a demon, she deserves to die.
Letting her grow until now is already the greatest benevolence. It is time for her to contribute to us.”
“How dare you call it acting on behalf of the heavens, an act of justice? You are truly shameless to the extreme!
It's a pity that you won't get your wish. Lin'er has already escaped from the Divine Palace.
If you could have caught her, you would have brought her before us long ago.
Today, you came empty-handed, which means you couldn't catch her!”
The two Palace Lords chuckled, “That's right, we haven't caught her during this time.
However, we already have a way to make her walk right into our trap.
If we capture the man who saved her, with Saint Lin'er's personality, do you think she will automatically come to our doorstep?
Oh, I heard that Saint Lin'er calls that man 'brother' and is very attached to him.”
“You are not allowed to hurt Lin'er!!!”
The two locked-up fox women were instantly subjected to intense stimulation. The pupils of their eyes turned blood-red, sharp teeth grew in their mouths, their long white hair danced wildly, and nine snow-white tails, each several yards long, appeared behind them.
The Divine Iron chains, reinforced with special talismans, were pulled taut, clanging loudly.
The hooks piercing their collarbones caused a large amount of blood to flow from the wounds as they struggled and pulled.
“Heh heh heh, look at your helpless rage, it's truly laughable.
Back then, the two Palace Lords were so majestic that the entire Land of Disorder would tremble with every stomp of their feet.
Who would have known that you would be imprisoned here without dignity, continuously having your source essence blood extracted?”
“Don't hurt Lin'er, I beg you, for the sake of us treating you like our own sisters in the past, let her go!
We are willing to offer all of our bloodline essence, as well as all the bloodline inheritance secrets of the Nine-Tailed Fox clan!
You should understand that some inheritance secrets, unless we are willing, even if you drain every last drop of our bloodline essence, you will never be able to obtain!”
The blood color faded from the pupils of the two locked-up Nine-Tailed Fox women, and tears rolled down their cheeks, their faces full of pleading.
The two contemporary Palace Lords couldn't help but be stunned, their faces filled with disbelief, “You're actually shedding tears?
For tens of thousands of years, you have suffered all kinds of torture, and there has never been a trace of tears in your eyes. Besides the initial anger, there has only been indifference over the long years.
Today, you are actually shedding tears for Saint Lin'er. How truly amusing.
However, the tears of demons are not worthy of sympathy, they will only make us feel disgusted.”
“You will not die well, you will suffer retribution!”
“Heh heh, retribution?”
The two contemporary Palace Lords laughed disdainfully.
They walked towards the two Nine-Tailed Fox women, “We have come today to liberate you.
After tens of thousands of years of torment, you should have had enough.
Today, offer all of your bloodline essence.
Helping us become stronger is the only value you have in coming into this world!”
The two contemporary Palace Lords were about to make their move as they spoke.
Behind them, Jun Wu Xie, who was hidden in the shadows, had already understood the truth of the whole matter.
His eyes were incomparably cold at this moment.
Just as the two women were about to attack the Nine-Tailed Foxes, he also moved.
