"Three Martial Saints."
They were the same level as the Four Great Sword Masters and were probably very close to the level of the Nine Realms Lord. They were the strongest in the Martial Emperor Palace, just below the Martial Emperor.
"Every Martial Saint is a character who has been famous for ten thousand years. In the past, they were the absolute geniuses of the True Martial Emperor Palace. They made great contributions to the True Martial Emperor Palace. They are the people that hundreds of millions of cultivators in the True Martial Emperor Palace respect and fear. Every one of them is the pillar of the True Martial Emperor Palace. For example, my clan's ancestor, Wenren Xi, is the legend of my Wenren Clan. His cultivation was heaven-defying since he was young.
Speaking of the three Martial Saints, even Wenren Jingtao, who was of the older generation, was full of awe and admiration.
Long Chen silently remembered these things. It seemed that Wenren Jingtao's position in the Martial God Palace was not bad. At least, he was stronger than Nangong Lie and the others. After all, there were not many late stage Nirvana Tribulation cultivators like Wenren Jingtao in the Martial Emperor Palace. Every one of them was very precious. Otherwise, the Martial Emperor Palace wouldn't have sent Wenren Jingtao to guard the Nine Star Chaos City.
Following Wenren Jingtao, Long Chen walked through the gate formed by the Gold Demon Suppressing Column. In front of him was a vast plain. In the depths of that endless plain, a five-colored pagoda shot up into the sky, piercing through the clouds and into the unreachable void. That was the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda that Wenren Jingtao had mentioned, with a total of ninety-nine levels.
The entire Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda was enveloped in the five-colored clouds of gold, cyan, red, blue, and yellow. Nothing could be seen clearly, but that kind of awe-inspiring aura still made Long Chen feel shocked in his heart. It was as if this Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda was endless, and there was no top level at all.
The top floor was a forbidden area for almost all the Martial God Palace disciples.
All the Martial God Palace disciples lived in the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda according to their level and strength. The Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda had the best cultivation conditions in the entire Martial Emperor Palace. As long as one had a place to live, they would surpass their peers by a lot.
One could say that every Three Thousand Great Hall's martial artists' lifelong wish was to be able to enter the Five Elements Vast Heaven Pagoda to cultivate.
Long Chen raised his head and looked at the towering pagoda that pierced through the colorful clouds. He clicked his tongue inwardly. If this heavy pagoda was a Dao Artifact, the controller could easily smash tens of thousands of living beings into meat paste.
Moreover, although he was still very far away, Long Chen could feel the toughness of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda. He did not even know if the God Slaying Sword could cut through it.
"What you did in Nine-Star Primal Chaos City shook the entire Martial God Palace. If not for the Emperor summoning you, the experts of the three factions would have fought to be your master. After all, everyone knows that you were qualified to enter the Martial God Palace a year ago. You just came back today." Wenren Jingtao sighed.
"They all know me?"
Long Chen was a little surprised. It seemed like he was already very famous in the Martial God Palace. Lingxi's wish was for him to obtain a high position here. Although there were some things that he was willing to do, Long Chen did not want to give up halfway. Perhaps he could really obtain a position that the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace could not underestimate.
"Of course they know you. I guess there are already many people gathered on the first floor of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda, waiting for the arrival of a legendary figure like you. Are you afraid?" Wenren Jingtao mocked.
"What a joke."
Long Chen laughed. He had seen all kinds of fights before, let alone today. He believed that the true experts of the Martial Emperor Palace would not be like the others, watching the show.
The most important thing in their hearts was the disappearance of Han Yunxing.
Long Chen turned his head and glanced at Nangong Lie. Both of them knew what was going on and quickened their pace. Very soon, they arrived in front of the Five Elements Haotian Pagoda. Only after arriving here did Long Chen realize how huge the Five Elements Haotian Pagoda was. It was indeed worthy of being a huge pagoda that could accommodate so many people. The diameter of the first floor was already 300 miles. One could imagine how huge it was inside. At this moment, in front of Long Chen was a boundless wall.
The first floor of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda was fifty meters tall. The entire interior was shrouded in gold and jade. The walls of the pagoda were carved with countless lifelike carvings of humans, demons, and other strange species. A large number of disciples of the Martial God Palace had gathered here.
The entire Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda had ninety-nine floors in total. In the center of the pagoda, there was a passageway that ran from the bottom of the pagoda to the top floor.
This passageway was one mile in diameter. It was the only passageway for the various floors of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda. It was called the True Martial Emperor's Way.
The True Martial Emperor's Way was vertical. Due to the uniqueness of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda, the higher one went, the greater the suppressive force. Only the three Martial Saints and the True Martial Emperor could go up to the top floor. As for the other disciples, the weaker ones could only stay in the first ten floors. The stronger one was, the higher one could go in the True Martial Emperor's Way. The higher one went, the better the cultivation resources. The disciples of the Martial God Palace lived in the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda according to their ranks. It was quite interesting.
At this moment, from the gate of the first floor of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda all the way to the True Martial Emperor's Road, a large number of Martial God Palace disciples surrounded this place. Most of them had not reached the Nirvana Tribulation Realm, but they were talented enough to enter the Martial God Palace, such as Lu Jin and the others. There were even some cultivators in the fifth or sixth layer of the Divine Martial Realm, but they were generally very young.
The Martial God Palace was a place that only geniuses and experts could enter.
As for Long Chen, the name of this genius, he had already spread like wildfire in the Martial God Palace.
Everyone was chattering and discussing among themselves.
"A year ago, he ranked first in the Hidden Dragon Ranking and entered the Martial God Palace. After spending a year in the Nine-Star Primal Chaos City, he has already reached the Nirvana Tribulation Realm."
"Maybe he hid his strength back then. No one has ever heard of him undergoing a tribulation before. That is to say, he has probably reached the Nirvana Tribulation Realm long ago."
"He has been an absolute genius since a long time ago."
Hearing this, everyone could not help but feel envious. Such a heaven-defying existence would definitely soar after entering the Martial God Palace. His entry would definitely cause a huge shock to the new generation of the Martial God Palace.
"I heard that he defeated Senior Brother Huang Yu in the Nine-Star Primal Chaos City. Senior Brother Huang Yu has already admitted this. In addition, he also defeated the number one genius of the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace, Wang Chen, before he passed the Nirvana Tribulation Realm. Wang Chen is a Dragon Martial Artist. With such strength, he must be in the Nirvana Tribulation Realm."
"I heard that he is also a Dragon Martial Artist. Moreover, he is not a weak Scarlet Horned Demonic Dragon. He is stronger than Senior Brother Huang Yu, who has the bloodline of the Ancient Divine Beast, the Jade Qilin. His potential is limitless. Among the new generation, he has become one of the best. I think only those two can compete with him."
"But even those two have not had the opportunity to be summoned by the Emperor Lord …"
Summoned by the Emperor Lord.
Just these four words were enough to make countless people envious. Of course, although they were envious, they still felt at ease in their hearts. After all, the other party had the strength to back it up. From today onwards, the True Martial Emperor Palace would also have a Dragon Martial Expert. This was something they should be proud of. When a genius had already surpassed all of them, they could only revere him.
The True Martial Emperor would not be blind to summon Long Chen for no reason. There must be something special about Long Chen.
Of course, regarding Long Chen, they were most interested in the matter between him and Lingxi.
"This Long Chen isn't a bad guy. He's made our True Martial Palace proud. I heard that the daughter of the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace's Lingwu Sword Master is dead set on him. She abandoned her fiancé and wanted to be with him. Unfortunately, the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace's Lingwu Sword Master and the others objected and took Lady Lingxi away. However, I believe that with Long Chen's character, he won't let it go."
"How do you know his character?" someone asked.
That slightly older martial artist said, "After listening to his deeds and speculating, we will know. What I am looking forward to is what Long Chen will do next. I heard that they are truly in love with each other. It is truly a spectacular love story. I will support him on this point."
"The people from the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace are not easy to deal with. However, with his addition and the sudden rise of those two, the new generation of the True Martial Emperor Palace has completely suppressed the new generation of the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace. They can even compete with the strange Fiend Race of the Desolate Emperor Palace."
A large number of Martial God Palace disciples were waiting for the arrival of the legendary figure in the first floor of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda.
"Those two are from the Slaughter Martial Revered Ye Futu and the Silver Moon Martial Revered Lin Junyao's faction. And this Long Chen followed Senior Wenren Xi in the Nine Star Chaos City. I think he will join Senior Wenren Xi's faction."
"Of course. I heard that he has a good relationship with Senior Huang Yu in the Nine Star Chaos City. Also, he seems to have a good relationship with the two Martial Path Perfection Realm cultivators under Senior Wenren Xi. This time, Senior Wenren Xi brought him to the top floor of the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda. The Emperor summoned him. This glory, tsk tsk …"
Finally, under everyone's envious gazes, Long Chen followed Wenren Jingtao into the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda. Walking into this magnificent world, Long Chen was shocked. In that instant, tens of thousands of eyes were on him. There were many Nirvana Realm experts among them.
The Divine Might created by tens of thousands of gazes was something that ordinary cultivators would find hard to resist.
