Chapter 126: The Return of Jing Tian (3/3)

  Nangong Yuehong briefly explained, and the crowd was extremely shocked to learn that there was still a mysterious world hidden within the Daxuan Sect.

  They easily linked this mysterious world with the sudden collapse of Taiyi Sect.

  That peerless expert destroyed the Taiyi Sect and opened up a new space; it had to be that way!

  The process of cultivation is to create an inner world, and when this world becomes vast and real to a certain extent, it can actually merge with the real world? Probably only the state of fetal formation can achieve this, and gradually produce divine things in the body!

  Limited by their level, people can't even imagine what kind of abilities a strong being above the Open Heaven stage could possess, and can only make wild guesses based on legends, nor do they know how far off from reality these speculations are.

  For a moment, everyone didn't know whether to be sad about the death of their own sect's excellent successor or excited about the mysterious world hidden within the Taiyi Sect.

  It's possible that it was left behind by that extraordinary strongman, passing on his earth-shaking and gold-startling ultimate skills.

  It's a pity that none of them have the ability to break through the protective array of the Daxuan Sect, and they can't even pass the first hurdle. How can they qualify to enter the inner world set up by the suspected strong practitioners?

  Nangong Yuexiang cast a subtle glance at Zhou Heng, then her figure rose and she floated away.

  She was no longer a match for Zhou Heng at this time, and she couldn't ask someone to take action against Zhou Heng because it required a reason. Even the disciples of Tianxing Sect couldn't kill people arbitrarily, which would cause public outrage!

  Should she be forced to tell the truth?

  It's even more impossible now, Princess Shuǐ Yuè was humiliated, such a scandal would not be washed away even if Zhōu Héng were killed, it will follow her for the rest of her life! Therefore, she can only use other means to deal with Zhōu Héng.

  For example, mobilize the imperial high-ranking officials to assassinate Zhou Heng. Or, provoke people to compete with each other and give birth to jealousy, and then kill Zhou Heng. However, in order to obtain the secrets on Zhou Heng's body, she is more inclined to mobilize high-ranking officials to capture him alive.

  Zhou Heng and the three others returned to the inn, where the Grandmaster of the Temple was deeply grieved by the deaths of Liu Shengjie and Jing Tian. One was the son of the Third Master, and the other was his beloved disciple. The loss of these two men was a huge blow to the Black Water Temple.

  Liu Shengjie's death is still not good to report to the Third Master, after all, he was brought out by him. And Jing Tian is his beloved disciple, not only has he been entrusted with boundless love, but also truly is the hope of Heishui Temple, a ten-star earth spirit!

  I should have known better than to let Jing Tian come to this grand gathering!

  After staying in the inn for two days to settle some trivial matters, everyone was ready to return on their own. Although the mysterious world of Daxuan Sect is tempting, one must be qualified to enter and try their luck to obtain the Inverse Heaven Legacy.

  However, Zhou Heng and others who came out of the Taiyi Sect immediately received a notice from the imperial family, asking them to enter the palace to carefully report the details of this trip, especially Zhou Heng who was still alive after entering the mysterious world.

  Actually, Zhou Heng knew almost as much as Nangong Yue Rong, so why did he still want them to enter the palace? Was it another one of Nangong Yue Rong's tricks?

  Zhou Heng thought for a moment and decided to take this path.

  After all, if he openly defied orders, he would become a national enemy, and the Nan Gong clan could naturally command the various sects to deal with him. He was fearless, but he wasn't alone; he had family, especially his father.

  Loved ones are his reverse scales, this is something he absolutely will not allow to happen.

  Even going to the imperial palace for a walk is not afraid, he has nine Xuan trials tower, has swift cloud flow light step, and also has shadow escape symbol, safety aspect absolutely no problem, as long as Nan Gong Yue does not say that kind of thing, Nan Gong family also has no reason to take action.

  Will Nan Gong Yue Rong speak out? Definitely not, first it's a loss of face, secondly this is not the responsibility of Zhou Heng alone, who made Nan Gong Yue Rong use her secret technique on him, that's what made things irretrievable.

  To deal with Zhou Heng, we must frame him for some other crime, the imperial family cannot afford to lose face like this.

  When the Chinese lanterns were first lit, Zhou Heng brought An Yumei and Lin Fuxiang, who were dressed up, to the imperial palace. Of course, there was also the master of the main hall, and Gu Zi naturally came with the people from Gou Yuefeng.

  They didn't arrive late, but they absolutely weren't early either. Most of the guests who had been summoned had already arrived, with only a few still not having come. This wasn't an invitation, it was an order from the Southern Palace imperial family. If anyone dared to not show up, that would be openly defying the imperial decree, which is a grave crime!

  Zhou Heng and An Yumei sat together, while the master of the main hall went to chat with other powerful sects. The Black Water Temple was only qualified to sit at the lower seats in Tianhang Jiufeng, and could be kicked out at any time.

  It's best to find some powerful backing, even if it's just a personal relationship. That's why the master of the Grand Primordial Palace personally escorted him this time, for diplomatic purposes.

  This has nothing to do with Zhou Heng. He chatted and laughed with An Yumei and Lin Fuxiang, eating the fruit desserts on the table, and didn't feel that time was passing slowly.

  It wasn't until 8 pm that everyone finally arrived, and the emperor of the dynasty, Nan Gong Hong, also wore a dragon robe, walking in with a majestic gait, followed by his three favorite concubines, each one elegant and refined, plump and fair-skinned, with large breasts and round buttocks, making people's eyes burn.

  It's not that there aren't other women who can rival them in terms of figure and looks, but the identity of an emperor's woman is so noble, just like a cup of wine filled with deadly poison, it makes people fearful yet unable to help but want to take a sip, even if it means death.

  Following the emperor and three empresses, the princes and princesses of the current dynasty appeared, among whom the Princess Shuiguo was naturally the most famous, standing out from her brothers and sisters like a crane among chickens, with a beautiful and ethereal appearance.

  Zhou Heng's gaze swept over her beautiful face, but in his heart, there was only deep disgust. Nan Gong Yue Rong was indeed a beauty, but he couldn't muster up even a thread of affection or pity for her.

  "Sit down!" After Nan Gong Hong sat on the throne, he casually waved his hand. Here were all high-ranking warriors of Hansheng Country and young heroes. His identity here was more representative of Hansxing Sect than the emperor in the secular world, so he wouldn't put on too much airs.

  "Gentlemen, what are your views on the mysterious world within the Taiyi Sect?" he asked, as this was the very reason he had invited everyone to the palace.

  Everyone expressed their own views, and most of them guessed that at the time there was an extraordinary person who arrived, killed all the people in the Great Expansion Sect with a wave of his hand, and then set up his own world below, waiting for someone with fate to arrive.

  Only a few people guessed that this mysterious world might be even older, far beyond the existence of the Taiyi Sect. It already existed before the establishment of the Taiyi Sect, and then thousands of years ago, something might have changed, triggering the terrible power inside, instantly killing everyone in the Taiyi Sect. And now this change may be getting stronger and stronger, so that outsiders can enter it.

  Neither of the two guesses can get an answer, even if the old monsters in the Tianxing Sect who opened the sky boundary came out in person, it would be impossible to break through, is the formation of the Shanhe Boundary just for fun?

  Nan Gong Hong asked Zhou Heng again, he and Nan Gong Yue Rong were the only two people who entered the mysterious world and came out alive - of course, no one knew that Lin Feng Xiang and An Yu Mei were hiding in the Jiuxuan Trial Tower, but they couldn't see the outside world, it was as if they had never entered.

  Zhou Heng basically answered truthfully, of course, compressing his own combat power a bit, and didn't mention throwing Jiang Xuanling and others out of the cave, after all, there were still elders of those people here.

  Many people have already heard Nan Gong Yue say it once, but hearing that the mysterious world has so many initial boundary demon beasts is still a bit shocking. This is just the tip of the iceberg, and it's only the demon beasts at the entrance. What about deeper inside? Are there even more terrifying existences?

  The inheritance of the fetal realm is indeed enviable, but one also needs the fate to obtain it!

  For the sake of strength, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, most warriors are willing to take risks. But if there's only one dead end, then continuing to struggle isn't bravery but stupidity!

  Who else can push their cultivation to the realm of splitting the earth except a fool?

  "It seems that we have to report this matter to Lang Yue Country!" Nan Gong Hong let out a soft sigh, he naturally hoped to keep this opportunity within Tian Xing Sect and leave it for the Nan Gong Clan, but the current situation was no longer something that could be controlled at the level of Opening Heaven Boundary.

  What if the mysterious world opens?

  There may be mountain and river boundaries, spiritual sea boundaries of demon beasts inside. Once entering the Han Cang country, what kind of terrible consequences will it cause? No one can stop it, even if all the sects are added together, they will also be instantly destroyed!

  Transcending a certain boundary, it's no longer something that can be compensated for by quantity, this is absolute crushing.

  Everyone was sighing, but fortunately, in this mysterious world, no matter what, they were all in the Cold and Desolate Country. When the unparalleled strongman from Langyue Country broke through the protective array of the Daxian Sect and led them into the mysterious world, they would at least be able to get some soup.

  The things left behind by the strong ones in the fetal realm, even if they are only insignificant small things, are also treasures for warriors in the cracking earth and opening sky realms! Moreover, the fetal realm is just the lowest judgment, what if it's the divine infant realm or even the transformation of gods realm?

  For a moment, everyone was discussing it enthusiastically, with some feeling disappointed and others excitedly anticipating.

  "Report!" A guard suddenly rushed in, his face full of shock, as if he had seen a ghost.

  "What's going on?" Nan Gonghong's face was filled with displeasure, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he had actually lost his composure to such an extent, losing face for the imperial family!

  "The well, Young Master Jing has returned!" The guard panted for a few breaths before finally getting the words out.

  "What?!"

  It wasn't just Nan Gong Hong who was shocked, the others also stood up one after another. These powerful warriors of the Splitting Heaven Realm were not weaker than Nan Gong Hong in terms of strength, and they didn't have any reverence for him either. They immediately rushed to ask the guard questions.

  "The true master is waiting outside the palace, what's the point of asking someone unrelated!" Nan Gong Hong shouted, after all, he was the nominal emperor of Hansang country, the lord of the world!

  The crowd finally quieted down, but their eyes were all fixed tightly on the entrance of the palace, waiting for Jing Tian's entry.
