In ancient times, the Trade Star of the Central Territory actually referred to an entire galaxy. It was also the only rare pure land that didn't have any power disputes. Cultivators from the forces of the four major territories could use their own methods to conduct free trade here.
There were all kinds of people from all walks of life, and it had always been a bustling area.
There were one hundred and eight stars in the entire Trade Star System, and the upcoming gathering of the four emperors would focus on the "Central Trade Star."
Logically speaking, an emperor's trip would be extremely ostentatious, and a divine beast carriage made up of twelve carefully selected divine beasts was almost the standard for an emperor's trip.
But this time, perhaps because East Great Emperor wanted to cater to Wang Ling's usual style, he went the opposite way.
He was only dressed in casual clothes.
The only people he brought with him were the three people who had been in the main hall earlier.
It looked like there were four people going, but in fact there were eight … After all, there was one living in each person's body.
In East Great Emperor's view, it didn't matter whether the others went or not, as long as the "Great God" in his body didn't leave.
So even though he was going out incognito, East Great Emperor was especially confident because he had "invited a god to possess him."
In previous Four Emperors Gatherings, East Great Emperor would send out a lot of people to serve them, and there was no lack of all kinds of heaven-gifted geniuses who had been sent by the East Great Emperor's royal family to the palace to gain experience.
In such a bustling place, it was common for the four territories to poach each other.
Thus, after a Four Emperors Gathering, the number of participants and the number of people they brought would often be different, and even the people who came back would be different.
The four territories usually looked peaceful, but in private, they were always fighting for talent.
For example, the rare battle between East and West Great Emperor this time was also based on this battle for talent.
If Goddess Jiao Yang hadn't turned to West Great Emperor and willingly become his pawn, East Great Emperor probably wouldn't have been so passive in the early stages of the battle.
Actually, Wang Ling could tell.
Currently, the four emperors of the four territories were still in a situation of mutual checks and balances.
Take the battle between East and West Great Emperor for example.
Although West Great Emperor had bestowed Goddess Jiao Yang with power, in fact, he hadn't personally fought on the battlefield in the end.
Furthermore, his goal was only to help the Blazing Sun Goddess ascend to the throne, not to directly annex the Eastern Territory and attempt to become the Great Emperor of the Eastern and Western Territories.
It just so happened that these Great Emperors were very sensitive to the battle between Great Emperors.
When the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits.
Given the current situation, it was necessary for any of the domains to exist. Once this balance was broken, it would lead to a war between the cultivators of the four domains.
The Central Trade Star was full of ancient cities built from ancient bricks, just like what Wang Ling had imagined.
If these buildings had been placed in modern times, they would have been an exceptionally magnificent relic of ancient cultivators. It was just that it was very rare for Wang Ling to see something of this scale in modern cultivation life.
Even the Holy Beast King Luosha King's remains that he had visited before was just a drop in the bucket compared to the Eternal World.
After entering the Central Trade Star, Lotus Sun saw some silver-armored guards of the ancient city flying in the air with all kinds of magic weapons in their hands. They looked alert and had sharp gazes, and as they flew in the air, they gave off a great sense of dignity and oppression.
"Isn't it said that the Central Region doesn't belong to any force?" Lotus Sun couldn't help asking curiously.
"Miss Sun, you might not know, but these ancient city guards were selected by the Great Emperors of the four domains to guard this place. They are present in all the galaxies of the Central Region. Furthermore, every ancient city guard is of royal blood. "
Zhang Zizi explained, "According to the Four Domains Trade Agreement, every ten years, the four Great Emperors of the four domains will personally select the elites of the royal families in the Central Region to be on duty here.
"This is also a kind of experience. Once they return from their shifts, the members of the royal family will be rewarded by the Great Emperors. It's a benefit that's hard to describe with words. "
Great Emperor East laughed on the spot at these words. "It looks like you've visited the homes of these royal families before."
"Of course," Zhang Zizi admitted generously without any hesitation.
"You're so generous." Wang Ying couldn't help laughing.
"It's all in the past, what's there to talk about? Besides, I, Zhang Zizi, have always only taken money, and have never relied on my realm to murder people for money. "
Zhang Zizi said, "The Central Region may be peaceful, but that's only because of these ancient city guards. If you obtain some supreme treasure in the Central Region, you'll be in danger after you leave, and you might be targeted. "
"You mean killing people and robbing them?" Wang Ying asked.
"That's right." Zhang Zizi nodded. "Unlike the modern cultivation world, the Primordial Era didn't have such sound laws, and there were too many unruly people. One Earth can be governed, but the galaxies are so big that there are bound to be places that can't be controlled. And these lawless places are places where all kinds of evil thrives. "
They used the "Team Voice Spell" to discuss this.
In fact, after hearing what Zhang Zizi said, Wang Ling was suddenly very curious about one thing.
Would they directly run into Zhang Zizi and Li Xian from the Primordial Era while attending the Four Emperors Gathering this time …
After all, Dao Ancestor Wang hadn't locked them up in the corpse picture at this time.
The Four Emperors Gathering was a big event, and many cultivators from all walks of life would come to watch. At the same time, it would greatly increase the overall trade volume of the trading galaxy.
Once the overall trade volume increased, it meant that there would be more cultivators who would be able to find supreme treasures.
These were all Zhang Zizi's targets.
Thus, he thought it would be very interesting to run into the Zhang Zizi from before.
Wang Ling and the others settled down in a restaurant. To Wang Ling's disappointment, the chef didn't know how to make crispy noodle snacks.
But Wang Ling took this opportunity to hear some other secrets.
"Did you hear? The Emperor of the East Region displayed the supreme Light Peacock Wisdom King Dharma Form … it's simply terrifying!"
"This shows that the Great Emperors all have trump cards. It's better not to provoke them; those who covet the throne are simply courting death. "
"But the Emperor of the West Region doesn't seem convinced, and plans to sell some of the spoils of war he won in his fight with the Emperor of the East Region at this auction. Those are immortal objects from the East Region Imperial Palace, and are priceless! "
"Hahaha, the Emperor of the West Region himself never thought that the Great Emperor of the East would hide such a trump card. He's definitely flustered and exasperated, so he can only look for a supplement here."
"But from what I see, it's not certain that this supplement will work."
"Brother, what do you mean?"
"I heard that the famous Godly Thief Zhang Zizi is about to make a move. He says he wants to steal something that the Emperor of the West Region is planning to auction. "
"Is … is this true?"
"It's true. The Central Auction House has already received a notice from Zhang Zizi."
"…"
Hearing this, Wang Ling and the others were all shocked.
They could already see that Zhang Zizi, who was playing the role of Ye Ren, was already holding his forehead with his head lowered; it was obvious that he also didn't want to face this part of history.
Wang Ling was astonished. So it turned out that in ancient times, there was a bad habit of sending notice of theft?
Deliberately notifying others first before stealing something … this was too chuunibyou!
