Chapter 878: Chapter 863 Divine Marquis Five Departments Ready to Go!

Divine Marquis Palace Small World.

In the Withered Wood Palace, Xiao Chen and Luo Mu Divine Marquis sat opposite each other, and on the wooden table in front of them, there was crystal-clear blood wine like amber in the jade flask, emitting a rich fragrance.

"Supreme Overlord, the Divine Marquis Palace Small World is divided into five major parts," echoed the voice of Luo Mu Divine Marquis.

The taste of the blood wine was intoxicating, sweet and refreshingly aromatic. Setting down the flask, Luo Mu Divine Marquis smacked his lips as if savoring the wine and then continued, "Apart from the Great Hall where the Supreme Overlord imprint of the Divine Marquis Seal exists, there is also the Merit Hall."

"Those worthy of the title ’Divine Marquis’ are sealed as Marquises due to their great meritorious service to the Human Clan; thus, the Merit Hall is where the meritorious deeds of the Human Clan are recorded. However, in recent years, there have been few Divine Marquises advancing, making the Merit Hall quite desolate nowadays."

"God King Stage, also known as the Enlightenment Stage, it is rumored to be the place where the first Human Clan powerhouse who obtained the fate-sealed title of God King attained enlightenment. Connected to the primal fate of the Human Clan, it aids warriors in their enlightenment and further allows for the probing of one’s talents and aptitude."

Xiao Chen, while sipping the blood wine, kept nodding uninterruptedly. He was quite curious about everything within the Divine Marquis Palace, and even the fate-sealed title of Divine Marquis derived from these mysteries seemed a secret beyond his comprehension.

He inquired about the first person of the Human Ancestors to be bestowed the title ’Divine King,’ and Luo Mu Divine Marquis informed him that the first Divine King was named Divine Sky God King.

He was also the first to counterattack the forbidden emperors with the realm of the supreme sovereign, perfecting the path from Divine Marquis to Divine King. As for the details that followed, those were beyond what Xiao Chen could presently discern.

Moreover, this God King Stage was not the original land of enlightenment but was split into five pieces by the later generations, each placed within the Divine Marquis Palace of the Human Realm’s Eastern Wasteland, Southern Li, Western Border, Northern Seas, and Central Lands, as a gift to the Divine Marquises among the Human Warriors.

"Ghost Valley, where the Demon-slaying Divine King led the Human Clan’s Strongest to obliterate the Netherworld Clan, burying all the remaining corpses of the Netherworld Clan in a canyon within the Small World. The Netherworld Clan is cold and dark, and now this canyon has become a forbidden area in the Small World, icy cold as the Nine Nether, even harboring ghosts formed from the gathered remnants of Netherworld souls. Even the supreme sovereigns dare not venture deep into it now."

Hearing Luo Mu Divine Marquis’s words, Xiao Chen could not help but think of the crystals from the icy cold world of the Blood Clan, although from the Blood Clan’s cold lands, the true origin of this icy crystal was inextricably linked to the Netherworld.

Lifting his flask, Luo Mu Divine Marquis downed it in one gulp, with some blood wine spilling at the corners of his mouth. He paused before continuing, "The last location is truly the core of the Divine Marquis Palace."

"Sky Prison!"

Xiao Chen was focused and eventually muttered, "Could it be that this Small World is actually a prison?"

"In fact, the entire Divine Marquis Palace Small World itself serves as a Sky Prison, suppressing the many strong ones from the Hundred Clans of Heaven. Some warriors are hard to annihilate, thus they are detained within the Sky Prison," continued Luo Mu Divine Marquis without minding Xiao Chen’s reaction.

"The God King oversees the Netherworld, suppressing these otherworldly strong ones. Even this marquis does not know how many otherworldly strong ones have been suppressed in the Sky Prison over these years."

Shock appeared in Xiao Chen’s eyes. Suppressing otherworldly beings seemed almost inconceivable to him; in his understanding, the Human Clan and the otherworldly beings were sworn enemies, either battling to the death or fleeing upon encounter. Why then use imprisonment?

In fact, among the Hundred Clans of Heaven, even the warriors from the Human Clan, reaching a certain level of strength, made it very difficult to kill them. With abilities like Blood Rebirth and even real death followed by reincarnation, the reincarnated individual, unless detected by special means, would remain undiscovered. It seemed better to imprison them, slowly eroding their spirit and flesh over time.

"Rumors say that the oldest imprisoned otherworldly strong one in the Sky Prison now is a Saint King from the Saint Clan, with unfathomable strength, already an existence difficult to eradicate. That’s why our Human Race has detained him in the deepest part of the Sky Prison, allowing time to wear him down," Xiao Chen’s eyes flashed again with awe and wonder.

Blood Rebirth and immortality were also his pursuits, but did true eternal life really exist in this world?

Rumors suggested that even emperors faced twilight, so whenever a Human Emperor grew old, if no new emperor emerged among the Human Clan, it was a moment of great crisis.

A single emperor could sway the entire Human Clan.

Xiao Chen fell silent, realizing the taboos of the Human Clan were too numerous. In the past, his strength wasn’t strong enough to uncover such secrets. The Entire Border Wilderness Domain, relative to the entire Human World and against the Hundred Clans of Heaven, was merely shallow waters. Only by stepping out of the Border Wasteland could he truly witness this vast land, the endless starry sky.

...

Border Wasteland Region.

Despite the ravages of otherworldly beings, these past days had once again plunged the region into a bustling state.

With the Border Wasteland City’s new Supreme Overlord, the War God Temple of the Gu Yuan Marquis Division opened once again, a major event for the entire region that even diluted the panic of otherworldly ravaging.

Now in Border Wasteland City, some Food Pavilion houses are bursting at the seams, thanks in large part to the opening of the War God Temple. The testing has not yet started, yet many warriors have already gathered; naturally, warriors from the tribes would not deign to stay outside the ancient Bronze City.

Of course, some rangers or those from smaller tribes who could not establish themselves in Border Wasteland City had no choice but to reside outside the ancient Bronze City, waiting for the opening of the War God Temple.

Inside the Bronze Hall.

With Xiao Chen now absent, the tribe’s affairs were naturally managed by several of the hall masters of the tribe.

"Gentlemen, with the War God Temple opening once again, we truly did not anticipate such a turnout. Our previous arrangements may prove inadequate," the voice of the War God Temple’s master, Luo Yun Mountain, echoed in the hall.

The Gu Yuan Tribe had won the battle for destiny, Xiao Chen had been granted the title of Divine Marquis by the Human Emperor, and the Gu Yuan Tribe had been given distant command over the Border Wasteland as their fief. The tribe’s strength had been recognized by all the warriors of the Entire Border Wilderness Domain—an influence comparable to that of legendary strong ones, naturally drawing countless warriors in a frenzy.

"Elder Luo, please rest assured. Before our chief departed, he had already issued an imperial command, delegating the full responsibility for the reopening of the War God Temple to Elder Luo. Whatever you need, the other halls of the tribe will naturally provide full support."

The Grand Elder, with a large smile on his face, said knowing well the bustling scenes outside of the Gu Yuan Tribe, he had even personally visited the Border Wasteland City, listening to all the warriors there discussing the Gu Yuan Clan; yet, in his heart he was happier than if he had broken through his martial arts realm.

In these years, the Gu Yuan Tribe had risen abruptly, controlling a region, and now its fame finally spread throughout the entire Border Wasteland.

"The five veins and five pavilions that the War God Temple is set to pass on have already been framed, and I have already ordered all warriors in the War God Temple to be responsible for the defense in these past days. However, the young warriors in the War God Temple still lack maturity in strength and need warriors from our clan to patrol and maintain security."

"That’s not a problem. I will dispatch two Thousand Men War Masters from the War Master Hall, who will follow Elder Luo’s commands and collaborate with the War God Temple to maintain order," Ding Shan immediately responded to Luo Yun Mountain.

"I think my Dark Guard Hall should take it, the War Master Hall has not yet fully recovered its Primal Energy, and the strength of the War Soldiers is uneven, even the major Ten-Thousand Men Leaders and commanders are not at full strength," quickly followed by Huang Liang from the Dark Guard Hall speaking up as well.

"Haha, my War Master Hall has hundreds of thousands of war masters, with commanders and Ten-Thousand Men Leaders amounting to over a hundred in total, taking out two Thousand Men War Masters would still be easy," Ding Shan retorted unabashedly, with both men harboring their own cunning plans at this moment.

The other few hall masters in the hall merely smiled and remained silent; for the past few days, to dispute over the talented warriors in the War God Temple, the two hall masters had been locking horns often. Now with this advantageous opportunity close at hand, how could they let it slip?

"Alright, now our Gu Yuan Tribe is famed across the Border Wasteland and throughout the surrounding regions; warriors who dare to be reckless before our Gu Yuan Tribe are fewer, indeed, even the legendary Battle Divisions do not dare to behave recklessly here," Luo Yun Mountain said with a laugh, pausing before continuing, "However, necessary deterrence is still needed. The actions of those young warriors of our War God Temple are still a bit immature, and I need the war soldiers from both hall masters to help a lot."

Luo Yun Mountain naturally did not want to easily provoke displeasure between the two factions, thus he had both halls dispatch War Masters to maintain order together, deterring other clans.

"Also, the reopening of the War God Temple this time has also attracted warriors from other surrounding regions, especially some from the legendary Marquis Divisions, and the tribe needs to host them," the voice of Luo Yun Mountain rang once again.

The deterrence and appeal of the Legendary Marquis Division were finally showing, and although the Gu Yuan Tribe had not been promoted to a Legendary Marquis Division, with legendary strong ones in the tribe and Xiao Chen having been conferred as a Divine Marquis, it was enough to let the Gu Yuan Tribe stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Legendary Marquis Divisions of the Great Wasteland.

With this, the appeal of the Gu Yuan Tribe was enough to draw the other grade’s battle divisions in a frenzy—the difference in grades also represented a difference in battle strength, equally requiring reverence.

"Of course, the tribe will dispatch warriors of matching status to host them," the Grand Elder immediately responded.

"Pavilion Lords Tian Fang, Xiong Sheng, Mu Qianhuo, and Tiehua, this time the War God Temple’s various veins will open to accept young warriors, and the chief has ordered not to limit the number admitted; as long as they can pass the assessment, they’ll all be taken into the War God Temple for unified training, so the burden on you is not light this time."

"We will do our utmost," the several responded in unison.

Tiehua, who was the Craftsman of the Divine Weapon Hall, had been appointed as the pavilion lord of the Casting Device Pavilion of the War God Temple. But the main Dao of martial arts cultivation within the War God Temple was personally overseen by the master Luo Yun Mountain. After all, the training of Combat Qi is the mainstream of cultivation in the whole Great Wasteland Martial Path.

"Good, now that everything is ready, we just wait for the day the War God Temple opens and young warriors join. All the major halls of the clan will fully support you,"

the Grand Elder finally declared, ending the brief clan council, and soon everyone hurriedly left.
