Under the dark earth, there was a shocking crack. This was something that ordinary people living on the earth of the human world could never imagine!
The more powerful one was, the higher one's status was, and the greater one's responsibility was!
Emperors ruled over eras, kings ruled over mountains and rivers, and divine kings presided over the netherworld!
At this moment, Xiao Chen's understanding of this became clearer. It turned out that these words circulating in the Desolate Land were not rumors that were randomly spread, but had a real source!
It was the actions of the human race's warriors for generations to fulfill their promises!
Kings ruled over mountains and rivers and protected their tribes. However, there was a boundless crack deep in the earth, a hidden danger that could cause the Desolate Land to completely collapse at any moment.
"The reproduction and cultivation of all living beings naturally requires the extraction of spiritual energy from the Desolate Land. When the blood and bones of living beings return to the depths of the earth, they decay and wither, and naturally return the spiritual energy to the earth. This is a kind of reincarnation of power."
Divine King Sun Punishing King said softly, as if he was explaining to Xiao Chen.
"And when the earth is injured, it naturally needs spiritual energy to nourish it. However, there are so many living beings in the Hundred Heavens, and too much spiritual energy is consumed. Therefore, the damage to the earth cannot repair itself. We can only repair it passively."
Hearing Divine King Sun Punishing King's words, Xiao Chen nodded.
Suddenly, Divine King Sun Punishing King paused and looked at Xiao Chen. Then, he continued, "His Highness Donghuang has conferred you the title of Son. This should have spread throughout the Eastern Wilderness by now."
"Yes!"
When Xiao Chen heard this, he could not help but nod. Although the Eastern Emperor had not officially conferred him the title of Holy Son to the entire Eastern Desolate Land, it was a fact that his name as the Holy Son had spread throughout the Eastern Desolate Land.
Not only him, but the names of the other three Sons had also spread throughout the Eastern Wilderness.
Not only that, but Xiao Chen also sensed a trace of the Son's aura from the Purple Dragon Holy Son's clone.
One had to know that Donghuang was the spokesperson of the Human Race's providence in the Eastern Wilderness. His edict had not been officially issued, but the providence belonging to the Son had already begun to gather. This was what Xiao Chen could not understand!
"Forbidden Saint Son."
Hearing Sun Punisher Divine King's words, Xiao Chen became a little embarrassed. Among the four saints of Eastern Wilderness, he could be said to be ranked at the bottom.
"It's just a compliment from the martial artists of the Desolate Land. It can't be taken seriously!"
"Why can't it be real?"
However, the smiling Divine King Sun Punishing King narrowed his eyes and shouted.
"Could it be that I, the Godking of Marquis Palace, am not worthy of a taboo title? Are you not talented enough, or do you not have the qualifications?!"
Seeing the sudden outburst of Sun Punishing God King, Xiao Chen was stunned. He didn't know what was going on. Sun Punishing God King's words changed too quickly!
"Of course not!" Xiao Chen said.
"That's good. How can a person from the Marquis Palace not have any confidence!"
Seeing Xiao Chen's expression, Sun Punisher King nodded in satisfaction.
"Xiao Chen, This King will tell you why Emperor Donghuang hasn't conferred a title on you yet. It's because you haven't met his standards!"
"Emperor Donghuang's standards?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen was stunned. What was the standard of an emperor? Was it to become a Great Emperor, or a Nine Heavens Myriad Dao World Expert!
Wait!
In an instant, Xiao Chen reacted. Sun Punisher King said 'you', which meant that it wasn't just him, but also the other Eastern Wasteland Holy Sons!
The other Holy Sons were stronger than him, but they still didn't meet the standards in Emperor Donghuang's heart. Then it shouldn't be because of their cultivation!
"Could it be the Holy Son Fruit Position?!" In the next moment, Xiao Chen reacted and shouted.
"It seems that your reaction isn't slow." Sun Punisher King said with a smile!
Sure enough.
Xiao Chen relaxed. All this while, he had been trying to comprehend the Holy Scion position, trying to form this kind of Luck. However, it was to no avail every time.
He was unable to condense it into a tangible form at all, as if something was missing. The Karmic Immortal Orb was different from his Conferred God King's. It was more like a direct manipulation of one's destiny rather than a Conferred God King's.
Previously, he had sensed this kind of qi from Purple Dragon Holy Son's clone, but now Sun Punisher King said that the other Holy Sons hadn't completed it.
"Among the Eastern Wasteland Holy Sons, your starting point is the lowest, so it's normal that you don't know some things."
Seeing Xiao Chen's expression, Sun Punisher King said aloud.
"In fact, your body has already begun to condense the qi belonging to the Holy Son Fruit Position. It's just that it's too thin to manifest. The other Holy Sons should also gradually condense their Holy Son Fruit Position. It's just a matter of how much, but it shouldn't be completely condensed!"
"In order to solidify the Dao Seat belonging to the Son of God, it's not just about luck. You also need actual merits, merits for the entire human race!"
Xiao Chen listened very seriously. Obviously, Sun Punisher King was reminding him.
"Last time in the God Race Small World, you saw Purple Dragon Holy Son's clone. What do you think he went there for?"
Sun Punisher King asked.
"Merits!"
There was no need to think at all. Obviously, Purple Dragon Holy Son went to the God Race Small World to earn merits for himself!
However, Xiao Chen became puzzled again. The last time was such a good opportunity to kill into the God Race Small World, why did Purple Dragon Holy Son only send his clone into the God Race Small World?
"You know too little about those hidden great clans and the powerful King Clans. The God Race has only sent a clone from the small world. This means that there is an even greater merit waiting for him at the location of his main body!"
Hmm.
Xiao Chen came to his senses. Sun Punisher King's words woke him up. These hidden ancient clans and monarchs' forces were absolutely beyond his imagination!
"Palace Lord, you mean that Purple Dragon Holy Son's main body, under the arrangement of the Purple Dragon King Tribe, is earning merits to completely condense the Holy Son Position!"
"That's right!"
At this moment, Xiao Chen realized how important it was to have a powerful force behind one's back. They could even help one cheat. Of course, this was not cheating. The force behind one's back was also a kind of martial artist's strength.
If the Purple Dragon King Tribe was like this, then how terrifying would the Tai Hao Royal Bloodline Clan with a long history be!
Under the arrangement of the tribe, Purple Dragon Holy Son was frantically earning merits. Then, where would Tai Hao Holy Son be?
However, the next moment, Xiao Chen shuddered and raised his head to look at Sun Punisher King.
"Junior thanks Palace Lord for your great kindness."
At this moment, he suddenly realized why Sun Punisher King wanted him to be in charge of the big crack. The big crack was related to the safety of the Mortal World. As long as he prevented the big crack from spreading, the peace of the Mortal World would be the greatest merit!
Becoming the Holy Son would be a piece of cake!
"Haha, you are the Divine King of my Marquis Palace. Marquis Palace is your support. In terms of merits, there is no clan that dares to stand shoulder to shoulder with my Marquis Palace!"
Seeing that Xiao Chen understood, Sun Punisher King laughed loudly.
"Divine King Xiu Mu was originally in charge of the big crack. Now that you are about to advance to the Seventh Heavenly Layer, it is enough for you to guard the big crack. You will replace Xiu Mu when the time comes."
"Junior understands. I will take over with Divine King Xiu Mu then." Xiao Chen bowed again.
Soon, Xiao Chen followed Sun Punisher King back to Marquis Palace. Looking at the dark scene in the depths of the palace, Xiao Chen couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Only then did he suppress the excitement in his heart.
"Alright, this King has told you everything that needs to be said. The rest is up to you!"
Similarly, Sun Punisher King said to Xiao Chen sternly after walking out of the big crack.
"Remember, you are the ruler of my Marquis Palace. Every generation of Marquis Palace has shaken the world. You must not tarnish the name of the human Divine King!"
"Junior will remember!"
Sun Punisher King disappeared from Marquis Palace with Xiao Chen's words.
Xiao Chen then headed for his Marquis Palace in the Nether Miniature World.
"Greetings, Divine King."
Seeing Xiao Chen's return, two figures outside the Divine Marquis Residence showed a trace of excitement and knelt on the ground. They were the two followers who submitted to Xiao Chen when he first became a Divine Marquis.
Over the past 100 years, although Xiao Chen had not had the opportunity to live in Marquis Palace, these two followers had been guarding Xiao Chen's residence dutifully.
"Get up. This time, you will return to the Gu Yuan Tribe with me. It has been too difficult for you two to guard Marquis Palace!"
"Thank you, Divine King! Thank you, Divine King!"
The two of them shouted in unison. After more than 100 years of guarding, they even thought that Xiao Chen had forgotten about them.
After all, even when they first came to submit, they had never imagined that in a short hundred years, Xiao Chen would actually advance from a Deity Overlord to a Deity Monarch. Now, his name even spread throughout the hundred realms!
This made many powerhouses who had been hesitant and wanted to submit to Xiao Chen regret it.
Now that Xiao Chen had allowed them to follow him instead of guarding the lonely Marquis Palace, the 100 years of suffering had been worth it!
Xiao Chen felt a little embarrassed when he saw their excited expressions. In fact, he had really forgotten about them!
"Greetings, Master." The voice outside the palace summoned the three disciples who were deep in the palace.
They appeared outside the palace and bowed respectfully to Xiao Chen.
"Get up."
Xiao Chen waved his hand and stepped into the main hall.
The three disciples had not built a new Marquis Palace after they had been promoted to Marquis Palace. Instead, they lived in his original Marquis Palace. Furthermore, the Marquis Palace was very large. Even a hundred times more people could live there, let alone three.
In the main hall of the palace.
Xiao Chen sized up the three disciples standing in front of him.
After not seeing them for a short period of time, he realized that his three disciples had changed a little. Their originally sharp bodies had become more mellow.
Of course, this evaluation did not apply to his fifth disciple, Huang Xiaotian. This fellow had always been very mellow and slippery.
