Although they were both Inspectors of the Profound Nether Mansion, Bihai Ming Feng's seniority was lower than Qi Tian Ming's. After all, Qi Tian Ming was of the same seniority as Bihai Ming Feng's seniors in the Coupling Celestial Sect.
For this reason, Bihai Ming Feng had addressed Qi Tian Ming as senior uncle when they were in the Profound Nether Mansion.
Moreover, Qi Tian Ming's strength was ranked in the top three among the ten Inspectors of the Profound Nether Mansion.
Thus, Bihai Mingfeng was very willing to address him as martial uncle. It was not only because of seniority.
"Yes."
Qi Tian Ming nodded at Bihai Ming Feng. Then, he turned to Duan Lingtian and said, "This is the Third Sect Leader of the Coupling Celestial Sect. He's also one of the ten Inspectors of the Profound Nether Mansion. He's not even 1,000 years old, but he's already a peak Celestial King. He has the highest chance of becoming a Celestial Lord in the Profound Nether Mansion.
He was the one who led the way to the Coupling Celestial Sect when the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm opened. You must have met him before, right? "
Qi Tian Ming asked.
"Yes, Old Qi. I've met the Blue Sea Inspector at the entrance of the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm."
Duan Lingtian nodded. Then, he looked at Bihai Ming Feng and nodded with a smile as a form of greeting.
"That's why I thought you looked familiar. You're Duan Ling Tian who ranked second during the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm."
Bihai Ming Feng looked at Duan Lingtian in surprise. It was clear he recognized Duan Lingtian.
"That's me."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"Since you're old acquaintances, I won't introduce myself. Inspector, I still have some matters to attend to with Duan Lingtian, so I won't chat with you any longer. If you have time, come over to my place for a drink. "
After bidding farewell to Bihai Ming Feng, Qi Tian Ming left with Duan Lingtian.
Although Bihai Ming Feng was his junior and was weaker than him, Bihai Ming Feng was much younger than him. Moreover, Bihai Ming Feng's innate talent and comprehension ability far surpassed him. It was only a matter of time before Bihai Ming Feng surpassed him.
Thus, before Bihai Mingfeng, he did not dare to flaunt his seniority, and completely treated Bihai Mingfeng as an equal.
"Alright."
A frown appeared on Bihai Ming Feng's face as he looked at Duan Ling Tian and Qi Tian Ming. 'Why did Inspector Qi bring Duan Ling Tian to the Profound Nether Mansion? Could it be that he has taken a fancy to Duan Lingtian's talent and perception, and wants to take him in as his personal disciple? "
"However, isn't this a little against the rules?"
Although the Profound Nether Mansion did not restrict the inspectors from accepting direct disciples, they were not allowed to bring them back to the Profound Nether Mansion unless the direct disciple passed the test and joined the Profound Nether Mansion.
Every once in a while, the Profound Nether Mansion would recruit disciples from the Three Sects and Two Clans. If an inspector recruited a direct disciple from outside the mansion, he or she would be allowed to join the Three Sects and Two Clans in the assessment.
As long as one passed the test, one would be able to join the Profound Nether Mansion.
'There's still some time until the next round of recruitment for the Three Sects and Two Clans, right? Why did Inspector Qi bring Duan Lingtian to the Profound Nether Mansion now? '
Bihai Mingfeng could not come up with an answer even after thinking about it for a long time. In the end, he decided not to dwell on it and left to tend to his own matters.
He was unaware that Duan Lingtian would bring Duan Lingtian to the Profound Nether Mansion.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was being led by Qi Tian Ming to a secluded palace in the Profound Nether Mansion's estate. It was the Imperial Tutor Pavilion, a place that had been forgotten by many.
Not many of the younger generation in the Profound Nether Mansion knew about the Imperial Tutor Pavilion.
Even the elites among the younger generation would not be able to join the Imperial Tutor Pavilion due to their current age. For this reason, none of the seniors in the Profound Nether Mansion had mentioned the Imperial Tutor Pavilion to them.
The Imperial Tutor Pavilion was an unknown existence to the younger generation in the Profound Nether Mansion.
Even among the older generation in the Profound Nether Mansion, not all of them knew about the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. Some of them had never heard of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion since they were young, so they were unaware of its existence.
The Profound Nether Mansion's estate was made up of floating islands. There were many floating islands in the outer perimeter of the estate. They were located at a lower level and surrounded by a few floating islands at a higher level.
There were three layers of floating islands in the Profound Nether Mansion's estate.
There were three floating islands in the innermost layer. It was the main island of the Profound Nether Mansion's estate.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was led by Qi Tian Ming to one of the three floating islands in the innermost layer. This was also Duan Lingtian's first time entering one of the floating islands in the Profound Nether Mansion's estate.
Previously, he had been looking from the outside, and all he could see was a patch of greenery. He couldn't see the scene inside clearly because above the greenery were patches of fog-like clouds and mist, completely blocking his line of sight.
Naturally, he could use his Divine Consciousness to investigate, but where was he?
How could he use his Divine Consciousness to probe the Profound Nether Mansion's estate?
He was afraid the patrolling elders and disciples of the Profound Nether Mansion would retaliate with their Divine Consciousness as soon as he sent his Divine Consciousness out.
Duan Ling Tian followed Qi Tian Ming and entered the floating island. After passing through the clouds, majestic palaces entered Duan Ling Tian's eyes. Some of the palaces did not seem tall, but they looked like prehistoric beasts. They exuded a dangerous aura.
"Old Qi, some of the palaces look majestic at first glance, but why do they seem so dangerous when I take a closer look? Am I imagining things? "
Duan Lingtian asked Qi Tian Ming.
"It's not your imagination. It's normal for you to feel this way. Let alone you, even I feel the same way."
Qi Tian Ming shook his head and said, "There are ancient Formations in the palaces that have been passed down since ancient times in the Profound Nether Mansion. Most of them are Killing Formations. Once the Killing Formations are activated, anyone below the level of a Celestial Lord will die!
In other words, even I would die if I'm targeted by the Killing Formations! "
Qi Tian Ming gasped when he reached the end of his sentence.
"So powerful?"
Duan Ling Tian was surprised, and then he asked, "Since those Killing Formations are so terrifying, who's in control of them?"
"The Palace Masters of the various palaces," Qi Tian Ming replied.
Qi Tian Ming said, "Of course, there are only ten palaces with such terrifying Killing Formations in the Profound Nether Mansion's estate. There are four palaces here and three palaces on the other two main islands."
The extra palace here is the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. The ten palaces with Killing Formations that can kill me are known as the Profound Nether Ten Saint Palaces in the Profound Nether Mansion. Naturally, most people think the Profound Nether Mansion only has nine Saint Palaces and the Imperial Tutor Pavilion is excluded.
This is because the Imperial Tutor Pavilion is shrouded by a Fog Formation. Unless one knows where the Imperial Tutor Pavilion is, it's impossible for anyone below the level of a Celestial Lord to find the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. Among the palaces you see, only three of them gave you that sense of danger, right? "
Qi Tian Ming asked as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian studied the palaces carefully. Indeed, only three of them gave him that feeling. "That's right."
"Let's go. I'll bring you to the Imperial Tutor Pavilion now."
Qi Tian Ming brought Duan Ling Tian with him as they flew toward the depths of the main island.
"Old Qi, as far as I know, the Mansion Master has the highest position in the Profound Nether Mansion, followed by the Vice Mansion Masters. After them are the inspectors. Although the Palace Masters of the Profound Nether Ten Saint Palaces control ten palaces with terrifying Killing Formations, they shouldn't be as strong as all of you, right? "
Duan Lingtian asked as they made their way there.
"That's where you're wrong. There's no doubt that the Mansion Master has the highest position in the Profound Nether Mansion. However, the Vice Mansion Master is just a title. Their strength is, at most, on par with the ten inspectors. They're only Vice Mansion Masters because they're direct descendants of the Profound Nether Mansion. "
Qi Tian Ming shook his head. "As for the Palace Masters of the Profound Nether Mansion, they're basically Lord Mansion Master's seniors. The weakest among them is a One Basic Celestial Lord. Do you think they're weaker than us?"
Duan Lingtian inhaled sharply upon hearing Qi Tian Ming's words.
The weakest among the Palace Masters of the Profound Nether Mansion's Ten Saint Palaces was a One Basic Celestial Lord?
"Of course, although the ten great Sacred Palaces' Palace Masters are Lord Mansion Master's seniors, there are only a handful of them who can compare to Lord Mansion Master in terms of strength … As for someone stronger than Lord Mansion Master, there is only one person."
Qi Tian Ming paused for a moment before he looked at Duan Lingtian meaningfully. "Who do you think that person is?"
"Don't tell me it's the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion?"
Since Qi Tian Ming had asked Duan Lingtian to make a guess, Duan Lingtian could only come up with a guess. Naturally, Duan Lingtian was not certain if he was right.
"That's right! It's the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion! "
Qi Tian Ming nodded. "Rumor has it that the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion is the longest-living person in the Profound Nether Mansion. Nobody has seen him fight before, but even Lord Mansion Master treats him with respect.
Someone once asked Lord Mansion Master if he would win if he fought the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. Do you know what Lord Mansion Master said?
Lord Mansion Master said he wouldn't dare to fight the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. Even if the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion wanted to kill him, he would only be able to do nothing! "
Qi Tian Ming paused for a moment as a hint of respect flashed in his eyes. "For this reason, even though the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion has never shown himself before, those who know of his existence still respect him."
"Old Qi, you've never seen the Palace Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion?"
Duan Lingtian was surprised.
"No."
