"Let's go, Jian Wushuang. Tell us where you've been for the past thousand years. Even I can't tell how strong you are now." The Greenpeak Divine Marquis pulled Jian Wushuang into the palace.
Over the past thousand years, the Greenpeak Divine Marquis had been filled with guilt toward Jian Wushuang. He believed that he had been a burden to Jian Wushuang, causing Jian Wushuang to be unable to escape Qing Xuzi's pursuit.
Although Blood Wave Sovereign had sent a message to inform them that Jian Wushuang was still alive, the guilt in his heart had not lessened in the slightest.
Now, he finally saw Jian Wushuang come back safe and sound, and seemed to be stronger than before. His heart, which had been hanging in his throat, was filled with guilt, finally calmed down.
"Aren't you going to continue selecting experts?" Jian Wushuang asked, tilting his head.
The Greenpeak Divine Marquis did not reply, but the Nine Tribulations King shook his head and snorted disdainfully. "If anyone has the strength to take that palm of mine, they would have done so long ago. Those who are still here and don't dare to try are nothing but rotten fish and shrimps. Even if there are those who can take that palm of mine, they are just cowards. What's the point of keeping them?"
"That's a good point." Jian Wushuang nodded in agreement.
Soon, the three of them entered the palace.
The Spear Creek Sovereign and a few others who had passed the Nine Tribulations King's test followed closely behind.
The palace gates slowly closed.
The many ultimate Sovereigns present couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this.
"What's going on? Are they not going to compete? "
"It looks like we won't be able to enter the Nine Tribulations King's camp."
The ultimate Sovereigns who had yet to give it a try all shook their heads with wry smiles.
However, they had already expected this outcome, and it was their own choice. Therefore, they weren't too disheartened.
Compared to this, they were more concerned about the identity of the fourth-level Sovereign who had appeared at the end and destroyed the Nine Tribulations King's palm with a single strike.
"Everyone, based on the situation just now, this extremely terrifying fourth-level dominator seems to be acquainted with the Nine Tribulations King and the others?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Just look at the expressions of the Nine Tribulations King and the Green Peak Divine Marquis. When have they ever been so friendly to us?"
"With that fourth level dominator's power, he should be famous in the universe. How come I've never heard of such a person in the universe?
Just as everyone was confused and whispering to each other, one of the Ultimate Sovereigns suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "I know who that person was!"
"Hmm? Who is he? "
Everyone turned to look at the Ultimate Sovereign.
The Ultimate Dominator took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I believe everyone is familiar with the Battle of Wind Sun Canyon a thousand years ago, right?"
Everyone nodded. A thousand years ago, in the Wind Sun Canyon, for the sake of a divine herb that could increase the chances of breaking through to the Supreme-Being realm, the various top forces fought each other to the death. Naturally, they were very familiar with this.
"Do you still remember that in the Nine Tribulations King's squad, there was a fourth-stage Hegemon?" The Ultimate Hegemon continued.
"Hmm … I remember now. I think there was such a person back then."
"That's right. I remember that this person fought with Qing Xuzi head-on for a period of time and was not at a disadvantage at all. I was there at that time and was shocked for quite a while."
"That black-robed swordsman just now was the person who fought with Qing Xuzi a thousand years ago?"
A thousand years ago, Jian Wushuang fought with Qing Xuzi head-on as a fourth-stage Hegemon. That was a dazzling battle, and news of it spread. Now that someone had pointed it out, everyone immediately recalled it.
At the same time, everyone immediately recalled that after the Battle of Wind Sun Canyon, Qing Xuzi went after this person at all costs.
"Then this person is in big trouble. A thousand years ago, Qing Xuzi went after this person, but in the end, his whereabouts were unknown. For the past thousand years, the people from the Great Void Temple have been looking for Qing Xuzi all the time."
"That's right. Back then, Qing Xuzi went missing because he was chasing after this person. Now that this person has returned safely, the people from the Great Void Temple will definitely come looking for him."
"Tsk tsk, that Qing Xuzi is the current Divine Son of the Great Void Temple. He could be said to be the most outstanding genius in the past thousand or so chaos cycles. In the end, he disappeared in the Tai Luo Ruins because he was chasing after this person. That's fine, but now that this person has returned safely, the people from the Great Void Temple will definitely be furious and vent their anger on this person."
"Let's wait and see. Once the people from the Great Void Temple hear about this, it won't be long before they come looking for this person."
Many Ultimate Hegemons shook their heads and discussed. They were not optimistic about Jian Wushuang's future and fate.
Even though Jian Wushuang's performance was very strong, one should know that the Great Void Temple was an immortal force that shook the entire universe!
…
In the main hall, Jian Wushuang, the Nine Tribulations King, and the Qingfeng Divinity Marquis sat cross-legged. In front of the three of them were three short tables and a tea table. On the tea table were several jugs of spirit wine.
"Jian Wushuang, now can you tell me where you've been for the past thousand years?" the Qingfeng Divinity Marquis asked with a smile.
The Nine Tribulations King stood to one side and did not speak. His eyes inadvertently glanced at Jian Wushuang. It was obvious that he was also curious about where Jian Wushuang had been for the past thousand years and why his aura had changed so much upon his return.
Jian Wushuang raised his wine cup and took a sip. He said, "It's a long story. Back then, Qing Xuzi was chasing after me and I had no choice but to keep running. In the end, I escaped to a special place at the edge of the Tai Luo Ruins. There, I got rid of Qing Xuzi and obtained some special opportunities, which increased my strength. As for my aura, it's just that I used some means to conceal it."
Jian Wushuang only gave a simple explanation.
He did not plan to tell anyone about the second level of the Tai Luo Ruins. After all, it was a matter of great importance. The things inside were enough to make a Supremacy go crazy. Speaking of which, the Qingfeng Divinity Marquis and the Nine Tribulations King had gone through life and death with him. However, people's hearts were unpredictable. No one knew if the two of them would have any ill intentions after learning that Jian Wushuang had obtained the greatest opportunity in the second level of the Tai Luo Ruins.
Even if the two of them did nothing, once the news got out, Jian Wushuang knew without a doubt that everyone in the universe would come after him. Even the Divine Palace of Life would not be able to protect him.
After all, that was the inheritance of Tai Luo Supreme!
Just the various treasures and universe source stones inside were enough to make many experts in the universe go crazy. Not to mention the Tai Luo Sword Codex, a peerless Abhijna that shocked the ages, and the Tai Luo Divine Sword that shook the universe.
