"Sigh, Jianchen has only just reached the level of Divine King, yet he's already on par with the supreme Divine King. If he's given enough time and reaches late Divine King, who in the Divine King realm would be his opponent …"
"Yeah. If Jianchen had the cultivation of a peak Divine King, he would probably be able to directly become the strongest Divine King. Killing Primordial realm experts would be a piece of cake for him …"
"Jianchen is just too powerful. Including Gong Zheng, there were a total of eight Divine Kings. In the end, two of them were heavily injured, while the remaining six were injured to varying degrees …"
"A Divine King who had yet to truly rise up has died just like that. What a pity. What a pity …"
.....
Although the battle had ended on the eighth floor of the Azure Poseidon Palace, the Divine Kings gathered there refused to leave. They all gazed at where Jianchen had fallen into the lava as they shook their heads and sighed.
Jianchen was already dead. This was an indisputable fact in everyone's eyes. Even though they had not seen his corpse, and no one had personally witnessed Jianchen's soul being wiped out, he had fallen into the lava, so there was no chance of him surviving.
Nearby, the fifth prince of the Sky Empire was overjoyed. He finally felt like a burden had been lifted from his heart.
Yunxin, who stood behind the fifth prince, sank into a long period of silence. She was in low spirits.
The Divine Kings of the Yun family all stared at where Jianchen had fallen as well. They were filled with sighs and pity.
Jianchen had only just become a Divine King, yet he was already able to fight against a supreme Divine King to such an extent. With his unrivalled battle prowess, he should have become renowned throughout the Saints' World and become a resplendent star that shook up the entire world. He should have enjoyed a supreme status, yet he had experienced a battle where his cultivation was completely unequal, dying here in the end. They all felt pity over this.
Before long, another Divine King arrived on the eighth floor. When they learnt about what had happened, many of them sighed. They felt pity over the death of a prodigy like Jianchen.
.....
The Azure Poseidon Palace had a total of twelve floors. As the highest floor, the twelfth floor was the most important place in the entire Poseidon Palace.
This was because the legacies of the four Primordial realm experts of the Daoist Sect of Neptunea were all placed on the twelfth floor.
The twelfth floor was a place that everyone yearned for, yet it was also a place that countless people feared. Even a few supreme Divine Kings feared the twelfth floor very deeply. They were unwilling to set foot there so easily.
It was not because the twelfth floor was filled with terrifying traps of death. Instead, it was because terrifying Divine Kings would enter the twelfth floor whenever the Azure Poseidon Palace opened.
Before these Divine Kings, even Infinite Primes faced the danger of dying. Even supreme Divine Kings felt tremendous pressure before people like them. They did not want to face them.
The twelfth floor of the Azure Poseidon Palace was a world of mountains and rivers. However, the entire world was gloomy now. Only a huge moon hung high in the sky, shining down with pure and gentle moonlight.
Four stone statues stood there. Every single one of them represented a Grand Prime of the Daoist Sect of Neptunea in the past. The four statues represented the four Grand Primes of the Daoist Sect of Neptunea, as well as the four great legacies.
Over the countless years, one of the four legacies had already chosen a master, so one of the statues was dim and did not give off any pulses of energy at all. It was unlike the other three statues, which were enveloped by a hazy glow and gave off powerful pulses of energy.
Over a hundred Divine Kings sat around the three statues. They all had their eyes closed, meditating like monks. They attempted to connect with the statues and obtain their recognition to obtain the Grand Prime's legacy.
Not all of these people were supreme Divine Kings. There were a few regular Divine Kings who took the risk and ascended to the twelfth floor under great mental pressure. They attempted to obtain the favour of the heavens and the favour of the Grand Primes of the Daoist Sect of Neptunea so that they could obtain their legacies and rise up.
"I've just received news that a girl has appeared on the ninth floor. She's not powerful, only at the Mortal realm, but she seems to be protected by the power of the world. Even the Divine King failed to injure her …"
At this moment, a piece of news appeared on the twelfth floor, causing many Divine Kings to open their eyes.
"The Old Man has never heard of anyone being protected by the world after entering the Poseidon Palace …"
"Something has just happened to the Poseidon Palace. The Neptunean Moon that has vanished for a very long time has reappeared, and now, a girl has been protected by the world. Is there a connection between the two …"
"Countless years ago, a supreme expert predicted that when the Neptunean Moon reappeared, something great would happen to the Poseidon Palace. However, even those supreme experts were unable to predict whether the change would be good or bad, or what it would be. Now that something has happened to the Poseidon Palace, there's news of a girl being protected by the world. Is the change in the Poseidon Palace connected to the girl … "
A series of discussions rang out on the twelfth floor. Many Divine Kings made various guesses, coming to many different conclusions.
However, this kind of news was clearly not enough to attract the attention of everyone present. There were still a dozen or so people who remained unmoved after hearing the news of the little girl. They sat there cross-legged, unmoving like mountains.
Among them was a Divine King in silver-white armor that covered his entire body, only revealing his eyes.
Although no one could see her true appearance, it was not difficult to tell that she was a woman from her curvaceous figure.
Although the woman did not give off any pressure, the icy aura she gave off caused everyone nearby to feel chills all over their bodies. No one dared to approach her.
As a result, the area several dozen metres around the woman was empty. No one dared to stay there.
"It's said that an extremely impressive prodigy has appeared on the ninth floor. Not only has he taken away a quarter of the heavenly resources in the Divine Medicinal Garden, but he's also taken away the girl protected by the world. Moreover, he's only just reached the Divine King's level, but his battle prowess is on par with the Divine King below the Divine King. Even the Divine King below the Divine King was injured by him … "
When this news spread, it immediately caused an uproar on the twelfth floor. Many people were filled with disbelief. Even some of the Divine King below the Divine King were doubtful.
Being able to fight against a Divine King after just reaching the Divine King's level was just too shocking. It could even be described as shocking. Naturally, many people did not believe it.
