Eastern Royal Domain.
The center of the entire Eastern Wasteland of the Mortal Realm was also the most prosperous place for martial arts. In the Eastern Royal Domain, the Human Emperor sat in the center. His soul merged with the earth and observed the entire Eastern Royal Domain. The remnants of the Hundred Races did not dare to cause trouble.
In fact, the area of the East Royal Region was the largest region of the Human Clan in the East Wilderness. Its territory was vast and boundless. Even if a Venerable Almighty wanted to cross the entire East Royal Region, it would take him hundreds of years.
The Eastern Royal Domain was named after the Human Emperor. No one knew which era it was, but the Human Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness was respectfully called Eastern Emperor.
Perhaps there were experts of the older generation who had obtained the relevant records from those ancient and decaying letters. However, due to the passage of time, the records had become blurred and indistinct.
Now, the only thing that people could remember was that, from generation to generation, every Emperor was crowned with the title of Eastern Emperor.
The Hollow Void Grand Array, which covered an area of a thousand feet, emitted a silvery-white spatial energy that rippled like water. Wherever the silver light broke, there would be dense array patterns sparkling. Every array pattern was intertwined with each other, making it impossible to distinguish the beginning and the end of the array patterns.
In the silver divine light, Xiao Chen nodded to Marquis Ziyang and the other experts of the Ancestral Court of the Border Region.
Soon, dozens of illusory silver pieces entered the formation platform in Marquis Ziyang's hands. There was a faint fluctuation of space that merged into the silver light curtain. Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes. He naturally recognized that what Marquis Ziyang shot out were dozens of Void Spars.
Each Void Spar was of the Medium Grade. Although it was only at the Medium Grade, it was comparable to a Medium Grade Spiritual Crystal. Only an expert like Marquis Ziyang, who came from Emperor Dong's Palace, could take out so many of them.
If Xiao Chen was allowed to cross many human domains and go from the Border Region to the Eastern Emperor, it would take a long time. It could be said that the price of this Space Transfer was very high. However, these Void Spars were enough to make this Void Formation work normally for a year.
Buzz!
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen was already enveloped by the boundless silver radiance. His body became distorted and elongated. This was the power of space pulling at his body. If it was an ordinary cultivator, they would be torn to shreds by this power of space the moment they entered.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's figure disappeared from the platform, leaving behind Marquis Ziyang and a group of cultivators.
Emperor Dong's Palace.
It was located in the center of the Eastern Royal Domain. As for the area of the Eastern Royal Palace, it was comparable to the entire Desolate Land. It was a vast land with undulating mountains and mist.
Tens of thousands of mountains stacked on top of each other, stretching for tens of thousands of miles. Each of the ancient peaks was several thousand zhang high, like sharp swords, piercing through the clouds.
The lakes were like stars, densely packed together. They were like azure jade embedded in the ground.
On the ancient mountains, there were pavilions, terraces, and stone watchtowers. From time to time, various colors of spiritual light shone. The sea of clouds rolled on the mountain peak, but one would find that this was not an ordinary cloud, but a spiritual mist full of Spiritual Qi.
Above the lake, water vapor filled the air, sparkling like a spirit. There were pavilions and waterside pavilions, winding and twisting, and ripples surging in the sparkling lake water.
In the middle of the endless mountains and lakes, there was a piece of land that spanned thousands of miles. On this piece of land, there were close to a thousand Void Formation Platforms.
Each formation platform occupied an area of ten miles, and there were several golden-armored Battle Soldiers standing guard in front of each formation platform. Furthermore, each formation platform was engraved with ancient characters.
After Xiao Chen stepped into the Void Teleportation Formation, he seemed to have fallen into a trance. He saw space-time flowing, and he saw the dense sparkling on the barrier of the Void. There were even Dao Rhymes being born. That was the true mystery of the Great Dao of Space.
At this moment, Xiao Chen felt as if he had fallen into an endless space-time continuum. Time and space flowed rapidly before his eyes, but it gave him the feeling that everything had stopped. After a quarter of an hour, a ball of silver light finally entered his eyes.
The exit.
Although the silver-white exit was right in front of him, it still took more than ten breaths of time for Xiao Chen's Battle Body to collide with the silver-white halo.
Buzz!
At this moment, a dazzling silver light suddenly erupted from one of the Void Formation Platforms at the edge of the thousands of Void Formation Platforms.
And on this Void Formation Platform, there were ancient seal characters imprinted with the words "Desolate Border".
Before this wave of silver light scattered, in front of the Void Formation Platform with the two words "Desolate Border" engraved on it, several figures appeared. They held golden spears in their hands, their eyes like lightning as they shot towards the Void Formation Platform.
"This is …"
When he felt the space around him solidify, Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. It took him a full three breaths of time to adapt.
"Sir, may I ask if you are the Marquis that His Majesty the Human Emperor conferred not long ago?"
Soon, a voice sounded. Xiao Chen stepped out of the Void Formation Platform, and in front of him were four warriors who exuded a strong aura of iron and blood like mountains.
"Yes."
After recovering from his shock, Xiao Chen replied softly.
"Greetings, Lord Marquis!"
In the next moment, the four warriors bowed to Xiao Chen with spears in their hands, showing their respect to Xiao Chen.
"I dare not!"
This abrupt action startled Xiao Chen. Each of these warriors who bowed to him had cultivation above the Seventh Heaven of the Heavenly Building Realm.
With his Spiritual Will, he could see that there were no less than 10,000 people on this land, and all of them had such cultivation.
Every single one of them exuded a thick murderous aura. This meant that all these cultivators had been bathed in blood countless times and had fought for the safety of the Human Race.
"You can't do that, you can't do that. I don't dare to accept such a big bow."
But no matter what Xiao Chen said, all four of them bowed to him respectfully.
It would be a lie to say that Xiao Chen was not excited to come to Emperor Dong's Palace. He had even fantasized about the scene when he arrived here, but he did not expect it to be like this.
There was no arrogance as he had imagined, and there were no other mistakes that he had imagined. Moreover, his arrival had been known by the warriors guarding here.
"Marquis, only those who have accumulated billions of human merit can be conferred the title of Marquis. They have made great contributions to our Human Clan, so why can't they accept a bow?"
Just at this moment, a clear and bright voice rang out. Xiao Chen's pupils immediately constricted. This was because the owner of the voice was in the mountains a thousand kilometers away.
Howl!
At the top of the mountains, in the rolling spiritual mist, a huge dragon swept toward Xiao Chen. The violent airflow swept over and hit the huge dragon's body, causing sparks the size of a millstone to fly everywhere.
Legendary expert, Titled Marquis, Five-star Dragon!
He had only arrived at Emperor Dong's Palace for a moment, but the shock he brought to Xiao Chen was endless. The Titled Mist between his eyebrows could sense that this warrior was also a Marquis like him.
"Greetings, Elder!"
Suddenly, the Heavenly Soldier in front of Xiao Chen bowed to the figure on the dragon. It was the figure of a middle-aged man.
"No need to be so polite!"
The dragon swept across the sky, but the middle-aged man was not arrogant. Instead, he descended from the dragon and came to Xiao Chen's side. He kept looking at Xiao Chen, as if he wanted to see what was so special about him.
"He has not become a Legendary expert, yet he has been conferred the title of Marquis, and he even has a fief. How strange."
However, the words that the middle-aged man muttered next gave Xiao Chen a favorable impression of him. Only after the middle-aged man muttered to himself did he meet Xiao Chen's gaze.
"Marquis's Title is Luo Mu. I have been ordered to bring you to Marquis Palace."
"Greetings, Elder." Xiao Chen gestured to the middle-aged Marquis.
"No need to be so polite. You and I are both Marquis, so we should be closer in the future. You don't know, but everyone in Marquis Palace knows that there is a warrior who is less than 50 years old and has not reached the Legendary realm who has been conferred the title of Marquis. Marquis has been ordered to bring you here."
Speaking of this, Marquis Luo Mu paused and continued, "But you came a little later than I expected, so Marquis was visiting a friend elsewhere and told these Heavenly Soldiers about your arrival. Please don't blame me."
"Thank you, Elder."
Xiao Chen bowed again. He had come to Marquis Palace alone, so he naturally did not dare to be careless. Moreover, this place made him feel a deep sense of fear.
"Let's go. Marquis will take you to Marquis Palace first."
Then Marquis Luo Mu once again stepped on the five-star flood dragon in the void and gestured to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen also stepped on the flood dragon.
Roar!
The flood dragon let out a long roar and swept into the depths of the earth. It was the first time that he had seen a five-star flood dragon as a battle beast. Thinking of the Venerable Green Dragon in his tribe, Xiao Chen smiled bitterly.
Looking down at the entire Emperor Dong's Palace, although he had heard about it from Marquis Ziyang, the shock in his heart at this moment was simply indescribable.
Above the Ninth Heaven, there was a shadow passing by from time to time. It was also a flood dragon with dragon armor. On the dragon's body, there were warriors of the Human Clan wearing battle armor and holding dragon spears. They were overlooking and patrolling the land.
There were endless mountains and lakes, and he could not see the end of it. There were even many places that emitted an aura that made him feel extremely fearful. However, these auras were very restrained, so Xiao Chen naturally did not dare to peep, lest he caused unnecessary trouble.
What shocked Xiao Chen the most was that above the Ninth Heaven, where the spiritual fog was rolling, there was even a place where purple lightning danced wildly. There was an ancient Heavenly Palace, and every palace in the Heavenly Palace was shining with divine light. The Heavenly Palace located in the depths of the Ninth Heaven was surrounded by Zhou Tian wind and purple lightning.
Emperor Dong's Palace!
The place where the Human Clan Emperor lived.
However, Xiao Chen's destination was not the palace above the Ninth Heaven. That was the place where the Human Clan Emperor lived.
Under the leadership of Luo Mu Marquis, the flood dragon crossed the endless ancient mountains and swept toward the depths of the central ancient mountain of this land.
