Chapter 882: Chapter 867 Turtle Head Chamber of Commerce Terrifying Strength!

Although crossing through the Void, Xiao Chen’s Pegasus could not fully unleash its speed, as the number of Exotic Beasts in mid-air was simply too numerous, including several of its own kind, Pegasi, which Xiao Chen likewise identified.

Upon seeing its kin, the little Pegasus was extremely excited, incessantly letting out dragon-chant-like whistles.

The Outer City of Eastern Emperor City is a gathering place for many tribes from the Eastern Desolate Land, but the truly flourishing area is the Inner City, as well as the Floating Islands in the Void. As for the innermost Palace City, it is not a place where Warriors can freely enter, for it is the residence of an ancient aristocratic family from the Eastern Emperor Domain.

The Taihao Clan!

Human Emperor of the Taihao Clan, whose might shook All Heavens and Myriads of Realms, was seated in the Eastern Wasteland for hundreds of thousands of years. Although the Taihao Human Emperor had perished, the legacy left behind by the Taihao Clan still stood shoulder to shoulder with the top monarchial families of the human race.

The most renowned of the Taihao Clan’s Human Emperor lineage was born twenty years ago. At the time of birth, a divine dragon of destiny descended divine light, enveloping tens of thousands of li around Eastern Emperor City!

Now, it’s rumored that this direct descendant of the Taihao Human Emperor, though only twenty years old, had already reached the peak of the Near Monarch Expert level, spawning true laws and, wielding the hereditary king’s weapon of the Taihao Clan, had successively slain thirteen half-king level Exotic Beasts outside the Deep Void and escaped with ease from the hands of an Exotic Beast monarch, achieving formidable renown.

He was also regarded by many Warriors of the Eastern Wasteland as the next Human Emperor of the Eastern Wasteland, or rather, the second ruler of the Eastern Desolate Land in the present era!

These pieces of news were also discerned by Xiao Chen, who was seated on the little Pegasus, even though he did not deploy his psychic power, as amidst the noisy surroundings, these rumors reached his ears.

The bloodline of the human monarch itself was a forbidden bloodline. Its miraculous nature is imaginable!

Facing such a monstrous figure, even Xiao Chen could only sigh at his own inferiority. However, over the years, he had steadily climbed from insignificance to his current level; his mindset had long become extremely firm. Once a struggling ant in the Great Wasteland, today he had arrived in the Eastern Desolate Land’s most ancient city.

Having endured through the years of the ant, he had come to understand the expanse of the Dragon Sky. Rising from insignificance, he was stepping closer to ascension at every turn!

The nearer he approached the Eastern Emperor Inner City, the more the Heaven and Earth’s Vital Energy around him surged; this was due to the many Exotic Beasts that had rushed into it, stirring the surrounding Heaven and Earth’s Vital Energy into upheaval.

There were even tornadoes forming, and even Great Honored Level Warriors found it difficult to steady their forms amidst these violent air currents, having to walk on the ground below instead.

Beyond that, in the Sky Vault above, the Void continued tearing apart, with Giant Dragons directly ripping through the Deep Void.

Each Exotic Beast had a long flame tail ignited upon tearing through the Void Barrier, due to the friction with the Space Wall Barrier.

And through the ripped Void Barrier, within the endless depths of the Void, there were hundreds of massive creatures bearing cities large and small, along with magnificent palaces, breaking through the Boundless Void Turbulence towards the ground below.

After traversing tens of thousands of li, Xiao Chen finally saw the Floating Island of Eastern Emperor City. Various-sized lands like islands were suspended in mid-air, neatly arranged, large ones spanning thousands of li, and small ones only a li wide.

Above these Void Floating Islands were Stone Que towers and palatial buildings densely packed together, and even towering palaces reaching into the Void, not to mention the bustling crowds intermingling without exception.

This is the oldest city of the Eastern Desolate Land, where all warriors of the entire Eastern Desolate Land aspired to be.

Even Xiao Chen held his breath, greedily admiring the surroundings, only now realizing that he was truly a country bumpkin.

The human civilization propagated since ancient times; only here did he truly comprehend the grandeur and prosperity of human civilization.

Xiao Chen’s demeanor naturally attracted the gaze of many surrounding warriors. Concerning the surprised looks from the warriors around, even the little Pegasus felt somewhat embarrassed and sneezed, swiftly carrying Xiao Chen away; it was truly too shameful for a Five-Star Runner.

At this moment, Xiao Chen arrived at the Array Platform of the Void Array and saw that the Starry Sky Giant Tortoise had come to a halt on an island massive enough to span thousands of li wide, with innumerable Warriors descending from its city.

Turtle Head!

The name of this island was Turtle Head Floating Island, the home of the supreme Turtle Head King Division in Eastern Emperor City, and it was also Xiao Chen’s destination.

As understood from many warriors, this was the Turtle Head King Division’s external Chamber of Commerce, naturally involving trading, and he had just heard that this Starry Sky Giant Tortoise had returned from the Central Land of the Human Realm.

If Eastern Emperor City was the heartland of the Eastern Wasteland, then the Central Land was the core of the entire Human Realm.

Step!

Xiao Chen stepped onto this Floating Island while the little Pegasus transformed back to the size of half a zhang and followed beside him, its golden eyes continuously scanning the surroundings.

Although the Warriors were curious about the Pegasus under Xiao Chen, Eastern Emperor City was teeming with various Exotic Beasts—Phoenixes, Dapengs, transforming snakes, and many other descendants of legendary creatures—it was truly countless.

On this Turtle Head King Division’s Floating Island were crisscrossing roads with dense rows of houses and Food Pavilions on either side, and various places for trade.

Of course, not all of these trading places belonged to the Turtle Head King Division but rather to other tribes or warriors who rented from them. However, to rent a courtyard above the floating island was immensely expensive.

Various vital energies mingled; the next moment, Xiao Chen merged into the crowd with Little Pegasus.

His destination was the central location of this floating island, the trading conference site of the Turtle Head King Division. Although the entire Eastern Emperor City hosted numerous conferences of the Supreme King Tribes, it just so happened that he arrived when the giant tortoise from the Central Lands of the Turtle Head King Division had returned.

Although he was unclear about what kind of identity was required to participate in the internal trade conference of the Turtle Head, the Divine Marquis Order he possessed was certainly sufficient. He also wanted to see for himself what kinds of treasures existed in the Central Lands of the Human Realm.

The center of the Turtle Head Floating Island was indeed the site of the Turtle Head Conference—a vast palace. As for the starry sky giant tortoise, it had disappeared, leading Xiao Chen to guess that it had entered a secret realm.

However, Xiao Chen found that, although he had followed this giant tortoise, the front of the Turtle Head Conference was already packed with warriors.

These were warriors who had received the news of the starry sky giant tortoise’s return today and had come early. After all, the resources the giant starry sky tortoise brought from the Central Lands were bound to be a terrifying amount.

Along with many others, Xiao Chen entered a great hall. This hall was naturally vast, as space enhancing formation methods allowed it to span several miles, and at this moment, it was filled with noisy voices.

Through the noise, Xiao Chen easily understood everything; the many warriors in the hall were mostly elders from various tribes who had come to exchange resources.

The real trade conference, however, required verification of identity deeper within the palace and would not start for several days.

Soon, having passed through the great hall, Xiao Chen headed deeper into the palace complex.

This was a broad corridor, its surroundings as smooth as a mirror, lined with crystal stones that emitted a soft glow—not dazzling, yet bright enough to illuminate the corridor.

Unlike the bustling outer hall, the warriors entering this corridor were extremely few, and Xiao Chen noticed, casting his gaze around, that his strength was among the lowest there.

There were even a few hurried elders whose vital energies were covert; even he found it difficult to discern their depths, which also caused him a twinge of apprehension, as their strength was clearly beyond his imagination.

As Xiao Chen stepped into the corridor, it naturally caused surprise among the warriors there. Although they wondered why someone of his strength had entered, they merely glanced over and continued on their way, as the appropriate warriors of the Turtle Head Conference would verify whether Xiao Chen qualified.

And if Xiao Chen had come to cause trouble, offending the powerful taste of a Supreme King Division would certainly be interesting.

What appeared to be a corridor of several miles took Xiao Chen a quarter of an hour to walk, clearly enhanced by a Void Formation Method.

In fact, as soon as Xiao Chen stepped into the corridor, within one of the palaces of the palace complex, a guard-like warrior hurriedly entered.

"Reporting to the lord, the identity of the newcomer has been clarified," said the guard to an elder in the hall, bowing. "He is a Divine Marquis recently decreed by the Eastern Emperor Crown a few days ago, and he likely came to have the Divine Marquis Seal imprinted at the Divine Marquis Palace."

"Oh!" The elder who was seated on a jade bed immediately opened his eyes, showing a hint of interest, and then continued, "It has been a long time since a new Divine Marquis emerged in Eastern Desolate Land."

"Lord, the new Divine Marquis comes from the Border Wasteland Region. However, this region is extremely barren, and the tribe has paid little attention to this desolate place. Although I have tried my best to gather information, there isn’t much available about this newly minted Divine Marquis."

The next moment, the guard handed a Jade Slip to the elder.

Hum!

A fluctuation emanated from the elder’s brow, and in the blink of an eye, the Jade Slip turned to powder, but by then the information it contained was already known.

"Divine Marquis of Wild, with Dry Earth as his title, coming from the Border Wasteland Region, interesting," murmured the elder, then asked, "Do other tribes have any knowledge of the news regarding the new Divine Marquis?"

"They do not know; it seems the Divine Marquis Palace intends to keep it covered."

"Go, gather recent data from the Border Wasteland Region over the last hundred years," the elder’s eyes twinkled with excitement, but suddenly his expression sharpened, and he shouted, "Also, once you leave this hall, keep the news regarding the new Divine Marquis to yourself."

"Yes!"

Soon, the guard left the great hall.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen had also stepped out of the corridor. However, he was unaware that during the brief quarter of an hour he had crossed the corridor, his identity had already been discerned by those behind the Turtle Head Conference.
