Chapter 879: Chapter 864: Marquis God Mansion, Mountain and Sea War Division!

[No updates today]The endless, vast forests were no different from the Vast Land of the Human Realm outside this world, equally majestic and expansive. It once was the breeding ground of a race, and although not as populous as humans, it still had countless members of its tribe multiplying, which gives one an idea of just how vast this Small World must have been.

However, after the Netherworld Clan in this small world was annihilated, they were dragged to the Human World, turning into the residence of the Marquis God Mansion, and now, ninety-nine percent of the land is desolate and barren.

This was an isolated peak situated somewhere in the vastness of the small world, rising a thousand feet high. Perhaps because this small world had been silent for too long, combined with the richness of the Heaven and Earth’s Vital Energy, medicinal herbs of great age could be found breathing in their prime all over, along with some evil beasts that roamed, yet all possessed a certain intelligence.

Beneath dense and sparkling growths of ancient trees, mixed among them were some rather rare Spirit Grasses, yet these were unattended by anyone, left to grow one clump after another.

However, atop this ancient peak, there was a ruined great hall, decrepit from too many years gone by, already decayed beyond repair.

It was here that Xiao Chen felt a hard-to-describe aura, which was why he chose this spot for his Marquis God Mansion.

Since there was a great hall remaining on this ancient peak, it was clear that a Divine Marquis once built a residence here, and after the marquis’s fall, the palace slowly eroded over time. Just looking at the extent of corrosion at the great hall on the mountain peak, it was clear that it had endured a considerable number of years.

"Let the residence of Luo Mu Divine Marquis be chosen here," spoke Xiao Chen amidst the fierce heavenly winds above the void, even forming the image of a tornado as his voice carried over.

"The Marquis chooses this place as his residence within the Divine Marquis Palace," the gaze of Luo Mu Divine Marquis swept across the surrounding dozens of miles.

In fact, in such a vast small world, there were only one hundred eighty-nine Divine Marquises, and despite the birth of thousands of marquises over the years, as marquises fell, their mansions naturally became unclaimed properties, slowly abandoned once again.

Hence, even if one tried to claim territory, it was simply impossible to encircle all this land. Therefore, most of the Divine Marquises’ residences were not next to each other, and in fact, were quite distant from one another.

The location chosen by Xiao Chen was an isolated peak, not much different from his Withered Wood Peak. Although it was just an ancient mountain, the area it covered was dozens of miles wide. What was special was that Xiao Chen actually chose an ancient peak with relics from a former resident as his mansion’s address.

However, as for a Divine Marquis choosing a place to settle, it all depended on personal preference, so naturally, Luo Mu Divine Marquis would not say much.

"Rest assured, Marquis, within a few days, there will be others to rebuild your palace and the mountain paths for you, and there will also be warriors who come to help you manage the great hall," reassured Luo Mu Divine Marquis.

Xiao Chen nodded slightly, unable to deny that the entire small world was like a treasure land, and becoming a Divine Marquis, the treatment given by the higher echelons of the human race was indeed very generous.

This ancient mountain was the result of a long search by Xiao Chen and Luo Mu Divine Marquis in this small world before they settled on it. Moreover, the closest Divine Marquis mansion was tens of thousands of miles away, truly a place of solitude.

But ten thousand miles is not a long distance for a powerful Divine Marquis and can be traversed in a short time.

"Let’s go. After we rest for a few days at my Withered Wood Palace, your mansion will be built," said Luo Mu Divine Marquis, inviting Xiao Chen after the latter had chosen the address for his residence.

Xiao Chen suppressed the doubts in his heart and followed Luo Mu Divine Marquis. As for the peculiar aura emanating from this ancient mountain, there would naturally be an opportunity to investigate it later.

An hour later.

Having returned to the Withered Wood Palace, Luo Mu Divine Marquis was indeed diligent, abiding by the Imperial Command from the master of the Divine Marquis Palace and taking Xiao Chen to familiarize himself with the Divine Marquis Palace, fulfilling his responsibilities very earnestly.

In a short amount of time, Xiao Chen had gained an intuitive understanding of the Divine Marquis Palace, which was rather casual, because when he roamed the small world with Luo Mu Divine Marquis, he did not encounter any other powerful Divine Marquises.

They were either in seclusion, out adventuring in Dangerous Lands and Secret Realms, or like Xiao Chen, they were the head of their clans, with tribes behind them, unable to stay in the Divine Marquis Palace for long.

"Luo Mu Divine Marquis, coming from the remote Border Wasteland, this is my first visit to the Eastern Emperor Domain. I do not know where there are places for trading in the Eastern Emperor Domain, and how to get there," Xiao Chen quickly asked Luo Mu Divine Marquis for guidance.

Since he arrived at the Eastern Emperor Palace through the teleportation array, he found that this vast land all belonged to the territory of the Eastern Emperor Palace.

"A place for trading?" Luo Mu Divine Marquis chuckled softly, but then continued, "At the Eastern Emperor Palace, there is the Hall of War Merits. You, Marquis, should have a Battle Achievement Token with which you can exchange resources according to your war merits."

Xiao Chen nodded. His Battle Achievement Token had accumulated some battle achievement points over the years, especially after he recently annihilated the Blood Faint Noble Family of the Blood Clan. The conquests and campaigns over the years, coupled with this recent victory, had indeed resulted in a significant accumulation of points.

"Besides, if the marquis does not wish to exchange for items at the Hall of War Merits, outside the territory of the Eastern Emperor Palace lies Eastern Emperor City, one of the most ancient cities in the East Desolate Land. Legend has it that it was built during the era of the ancient Human Emperor and is the gathering place for all warriors of the East Desolate Land."

"In addition, there are warriors from the other four major regions of the Human Realm who come here, and all kinds of treasures are available. If the marquis wishes to trade, he can go to Eastern Emperor City."

"May I ask, Divine Marquis, how to get to Eastern Emperor City?" Xiao Chen asked again. He planned to go to Eastern Emperor City first, but he was having difficulty figuring out how to get there.

It was unrealistic to traverse the entire territory of the Eastern Emperor Palace; he would probably be restrained by the patrolling Jiao Long Celestial Soldiers in the sky as soon as he took flight. Moreover, if he were attacked by those stealthy auras from below, it would definitely be a loss not worth the risk.

"Previously, there was a Void Array platform in the Eastern Emperor Domain where the marquis arrived, which has a dedicated Void Array to Eastern Emperor City. With the Divine Marquis Order bestowed by the lord of the palace, one can naturally use the Void Array," replied Luo Mu Divine Marquis without concealment.

An hour later, Xiao Chen bid farewell to Luo Mu Divine Marquis, left the small world of the Divine Marquis Palace, and flew towards the location of the Void Teleportation Array.

In the void, the winds of heaven were howling. Above the ninth heaven, the Eastern Emperor Palace commanded the world with purple lightning dancing wildly, while the Divine Marquis Palace was hidden among the vast ancient mountains. Xiao Chen was constantly pondering the words Luo Mu Divine Marquis had said earlier.

The Human Emperor ruled over the Great Wasteland, the God King presided over the Netherworld.

It seemed that the path of the Divine Marquis, advancing to a God King, was not only a rise in fate and strength but also involved other sacrifices. The Eastern Emperor Palace and the Divine Marquis Palace, one visible and one hidden, suppressed the entire East Desolate Land.

It appeared that the trials of the Divine Marquis were heavier, and what they had to give up was even more. Ever since he arrived in this land, he had been receiving the respect of many warriors, even now, as the Celestial Soldiers patrolling the void paid their respects to him from afar—they were honoring the title of the Divine Marquis.

Taking out the Divine Marquis Order, Xiao Chen easily stepped onto the Void Array platform heading to Eastern Emperor City. Under the watchful gaze of many Celestial Soldiers, Xiao Chen’s figure disappeared into the Void Array platform.

At the time Xiao Chen was heading to Eastern Emperor City, in the far-off Ten Thousand Mountains Domain, the upper-echelon Mountain and Sea War Division.

"Shan Chuan, how could you possibly... Towering Realm, one ascent per layer of heaven, one tribulation per layer, one life and death per tribulation—within less than three years, you have actually crossed over from the Blood Refining Realm and advanced to the third-layer heaven of the Towering Realm—how is that possible!"

In the Tribal Grand Hall of the Mountain and Sea War Division, an elder let out a roar, his eyes filled with intense shock. In less than three years’ time, a young man from the Blood Refining Realm had actually surpassed him, even if he had only just advanced to that realm.

The elder was the Grand Elder of the Mountain and Sea War Division. At this moment, even with his status and cultivation, he could barely contain his emotions, finding the situation incredibly preposterous, almost beyond belief. Could this be the fortune of entering the Gu Yuan Clan’s Battle God Palace?

Not only was he shocked, but all the warriors in the Great Hall were also filled with astonishment. The legendary Gu Yuan Clan, a powerful marquis clan with legendary strong ones at the helm, indeed possessed such heaven-defying means!

Clothed in Cyan Armor, with an Iron Sword casually wrapped in beast skin on his back, the young warrior stood in the Great Hall, emitting a sharp edge that even some warriors of the Blood Refining Realm found difficult to face directly.

This youth was the one who, three years ago when the Human World was still relatively peaceful, went to the Border Wasteland Region and joined War God Temple. Although he was only at the Blood Refining Realm at that time, he miraculously entered the War God Temple and, being someone who also favored swordsmanship, became a follower of Jian Jinghong, Xiao Chen’s third disciple.

Later, during the crisis in the Border Wasteland, the youth didn’t leave the War God Temple. Instead, he joined the Gu Yuan Clan’s battles in the crisis of fate and underwent bloody combat. And now, miraculously passing three tribulations, he had reached the third-layer heaven of the Towering Realm. He had also transformed from a naive youth into a young prodigy of today.

Meanwhile, Jian Jinghong had been commanded by his master to go to Xuanling City, located at the intersection of Ten Thousand Mountains Domain and two other big regions. Due to not returning for several years, Shan Chuan thus came back to the tribe.

Naturally, this led to the scene just witnessed, the shock of many elders of the entire Mountain and Sea War Division.

The Mountain and Sea War Division, a mediocre one within the top war divisions, had a tribe leader who was a Near Heavy Building Realm five-layer heaven warrior, along with two Supreme Elders of the fourth-layer heaven of the same realm, and there was also the Grand Elder of the third-layer heaven mentioned earlier.

Therefore, the shock brought by Shan Chuan’s return was easily imaginable, and what was key was Shan Chuan’s age.

Feeling the various expressions in the Great Hall, Shan Chuan remained silent, especially a few young warriors seated below the Grand Elder, who had cultivated and practiced Martial Arts with him.

But now, they were no longer on the same level. He was ranked in the Towering Realm, a gap of a whole realm. The strongest among the young warriors in the tribe were only at the perfection of the Blood Refining Realm and had not formed their Heaven Circulation.
