Since things had already come to this point, Qin Shaofeng had no way out. Under such circumstances, he could only make preparations to wait for the arrival of the Lord of the Heavenly Court. If he could improve his three Mysterious Skills and his cultivation before the arrival of the Lord of the Heavenly Court, then he would have a chance to survive. Otherwise, he would really be finished.
If he wanted to fight for this slim chance of survival, he had to find ways to improve his compatibility with the Dimensional Pearl. Therefore, Qin Shaofeng knew that he had to speed up. He had to improve his strength before the Lord of the Heavenly Court found him. However, time was of the essence. After all, with the strength of the Lord of the Heavenly Court, it would be a matter of minutes for him to find Qin Shaofeng. Therefore, Qin Shaofeng could only pray that the Lord of the Heavenly Court would not come too soon.
As Qin Shaofeng prepared for the worst and began to speed up the pace of conquering the Eastern Star Area, in the Central Star Area of the Central Star Area of the Hongkuang Immortal Realm, the largest star in the entire Hongkuang Immortal Realm was shining. It was the Hongkuang Star. There were only two major forces on the Hongkuang Star, the Sacred Body Sect and the Heavenly Court.
The Hongkuang Star was the center of the entire Hongkuang Immortal Realm. Whether it was the Qi of Heaven and Earth or the Origin Energy of Heaven and Earth, it was the most abundant. It was the holy land of cultivation in the Hongkuang Immortal Realm. All the practitioners yearned to cultivate on the Hongkuang Star. However, the practitioners who could cultivate on the Hongkuang Star had to be at least at the Myth Realm. Of course, the descendants of the Sacred Body Sect were exceptions.
The Hongkuang Star had two huge continents separated by an endless ocean. The Sacred Body Sect and the Heavenly Court were located on the two continents respectively. The Heavenly Court was located on the Eastern Continent, which was much larger than the Western Continent. Moreover, the Spiritual Veins and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were much more abundant than the Western Continent.
In the center of the Eastern Continent, there was a Divine City. This Divine City had thirty-three floors, and was made up of countless palaces. This Divine City was located from the north to the south, and at the southernmost point was an extremely large Heavenly Gate, known as the Southern Heavenly Gate. Everyone from the Heavenly Court had to enter the Divine City through the Southern Heavenly Gate, and this was where the Heavenly Court was located.
The lowest level of the Heavenly Court was the residence of the immortal officials, followed by the residences of the immortal generals and immortal officials. Each level was extremely strict and no one was allowed to overstep their boundaries. The thirty-two levels at the top were the palaces of the four great immortal kings. As for the divine palace at the top, it was naturally the residence of the lord of the Heavenly Court. Ordinary people were absolutely not allowed to enter.
The palaces of the Four Great Immortal Kings were the Azure Dragon Palace, Fire God Palace, White Tiger Palace and Black Tortoise Palace. At this time, the Azure Dragon King, White Tiger King and Black Tortoise King were guarding the Four Great Star Regions. Only the Fire God King had returned to the Fire God Palace. Of course, everyone in the Heavenly Court knew the reason. It was just that no one dared to mention it. Because of this, there would be roars from the Fire God Palace every day.
At this moment, in the Fire God Palace, the Fire God King, who had escaped from the battle with Yang Zongshan, was wrapped in a black flame. He was healing his injuries while roaring, "Yang Zongshan, Holy Physique Sect, wait for me. I will definitely annihilate all of you."
At this moment, a servant walked in from the outside and said carefully to the Fire God King who was healing himself, "Lord, the Immortal Lord invites you." The Immortal Lord was naturally the Lord of the Heavenly Court. Hearing the servant's words, the Fire God King frowned. He immediately retracted the flames outside his body, stood up, and walked outside.
The Fire God King had been back for a few months, but the Immortal Lord didn't look for him. This made the Fire God King who was about to be punished didn't know what was going on. Now that a few months had passed, the Immortal Lord suddenly summoned him. This made the Fire God King a little confused. However, he didn't dare to delay and could only fly towards the Divine Palace of the Immortal Lord.
After flying to the Divine Palace of the Immortal Lord, the Fire God King stood in front of the Divine Palace for a while. He was still thinking about why the Immortal Lord was looking for him. However, he didn't know what would happen next. In the end, he could only clench his teeth and walk inside. It was useless to think about anything now. Even if the Immortal Lord wanted to punish him, the Fire God King could only accept it.
After all, the Fire God King was the one who lost the Southern Star Region. Even if he was punished, it was only right. Perhaps the Fire God King would be able to compete with the Immortal Lord if he broke through to the Dao Ancestor Realm. However, with his current situation, it was basically impossible for him to compete with the Immortal Lord. He could only let the Immortal Lord punish him.
Although the Divine Palace of the Immortal Lord looked a little ordinary from the outside, there was a different universe inside. This was a small world opened up by the Immortal Lord. There were high mountains and flowing rivers inside. Clouds and mist lingered around, just like a fairyland. All kinds of immortal birds and strange beasts were resting in various places, free and unrestrained. It looked extremely leisurely, just like a paradise.
The Fire God King didn't pay much attention to the scenery and kept flying forward. At the peak of a mountain in front of him, there was a cluster of golden clouds surrounding it. And in the middle of the golden clouds, there was a figure sitting cross-legged. Seeing this, the Fire God King quickly flew over and prostrated himself on the ground. He said to the figure inside, "Your servant greets the Immortal Lord."
The person in the golden clouds was the Immortal Lord. Ever since the Immortal Lord appeared, he had always been covered by the golden clouds. No one had ever seen his true body, not even the four Immortal Kings. However, the fear of the people of the Heavenly Court towards the Immortal Lord had never lessened because they hadn't seen his true face. This was because the Immortal Lord's character was really temperamental.
Everyone in the Heavenly Court knew the temper of the Immortal Lord. As long as the Immortal Lord was displeased, no matter who it was, they would be very unlucky. Even the four Immortal Kings were the same. There was once when the Fire God King didn't complete the task given by the Immortal Lord. In the end, the Fire God King was almost killed by the Immortal Lord. Hence, he was still afraid of the Immortal Lord from the bottom of his heart.
The Immortal Lord who was shrouded in the golden clouds, after seeing the Fire God King bowing, said with an ethereal voice. It was unknown whether the voice was male or female. "En, get up." However, the Fire God King didn't dare to get up. Instead, he said to the Immortal Lord, "Your servant has let the Immortal Lord down. I have lost the Southern Star Region group. Please punish me." At this time, it was better to admit his mistake first. Otherwise, it would be worse when the Immortal Lord investigated.
After hearing the Fire God King's words, the Immortal Lord smiled and said to the Fire God King, "It doesn't matter. This is just a small matter. You have been loyal to me for so many years. Why would I punish you? Alright, get up. I have something for you to do." The Fire God King was surprised by the Immortal Lord's words. However, he immediately stood up and didn't dare to disobey.
However, the Fire God King was still very nervous. That was the entire Southern Star Region group. Now that it was snatched away by the Holy Physique Sect, this was definitely not a small matter. If it was in front of him, the Immortal Lord would definitely kill him. However, the Immortal Lord didn't punish him at all. This made the Fire God King extremely nervous.
Of course, no matter how nervous the Fire God King was, he didn't dare to ask why. He just stood there and waited. At this moment, a golden light shot out from the clouds and went straight to the Fire God King. This made the Fire God King shiver. However, he didn't dodge because this was the punishment from the Immortal Lord. If he dodged, it would be disrespectful to the Immortal Lord. The following punishment would probably be even more severe. If that was the case, his ending would be even worse.
However, the miserable ending that the Fire God King felt didn't happen. The golden light shot into his body. Not only did it not cause any harm to him, but it also made the Fire God King feel that his injuries were rapidly recovering. This made the Fire God King very surprised. He quickly prostrated himself on the ground and said to the Immortal Lord, "Thank you for your kindness, Immortal Lord."
One must know that the Fire God King's injuries had been there since the battle with Yang Zongshan thousands of years ago. Originally, he was only a step away from recovering. However, he failed at the last step and became even more serious. If he wanted to rely on his own strength to recover, it would take a longer time. But now, there were signs of recovery in a short period of time. This made the Fire God King immediately overjoyed.
Of course, at the same time, the Fire God King was even more fearful of the Immortal Lord's unpredictable strength. He didn't expect that the injuries that he couldn't heal for thousands of years would be so easily healed by the Immortal Lord. When he felt that all the injuries in his body had recovered, the Fire God King's heart shivered. He knew that the gap between him and the Immortal Lord was still huge.
The Immortal Lord listened to the Fire God King's words and said softly, "Alright, get up. You have done so many things for me for so many years. Don't tell me that I can't heal these minor injuries for you?" Hearing the Immortal Lord's words, the Fire God King stood up and respectfully stood there. The Immortal Lord said to the Fire God King, "This time, I've called you here because I want you to do something for me."
"Immortal Lord, please instruct me. I will definitely go through fire and water without hesitation." The Fire God King said to the Immortal Lord. Although he didn't know what it was, the Fire God King who had recovered from his injuries was very confident that he could complete the task given by the Immortal Lord.
After listening to the Fire God King's words, another golden light shot out from the golden clouds. After a while, it condensed into a person. When the Fire God King saw the person condensed by the golden light, his eyes suddenly spat out boundless flames of anger. This was because the person condensed by the golden light was none other than Qin Shaofeng!
