The Great Zhou Country was not far from the Tianqin clan. After several hours of flying, Jian Chen finally arrived in the Great Zhou Country. He flew over the Great Zhou Country's border fortress at an altitude of several thousand meters and flew in the direction of the Great Zhou Country's imperial capital according to the map.
After another four hours of flying, Jianchen had already traveled three thousand kilometers into the Great Zhou Empire. He had finally arrived at the imperial capital. This time, because he had a request for the Great Zhou Empire, Jianchen did not directly fly into the imperial capital out of courtesy and respect. Instead, he slowly descended in front of the gates.
The gates of the imperial capital were guarded day and night. The arrival of a Heaven Saint Master alarmed all the guards. The leader responsible for guarding the gates immediately ran out from the tower and quickly arrived before Jianchen. He politely asked, "Senior, I am the captain of the fifth squad of the imperial guard. May I ask how I can be of service to senior?" As he spoke, the captain curiously studied Jianchen. When he saw Jianchen's youthful appearance, he could not help but reveal a sliver of surprise. However, he soon realized that Jianchen must have used a secret technique to preserve his youthful appearance. This was not his true age at all.
"I am the Imperial Advisor of the Qin Empire. I have specially come to visit your esteemed empire. Please report my arrival," Jianchen said in a very indifferent tone.
The captain was immediately surprised when he heard that the person who had come was the Imperial Advisor of the Qin Empire. He hurriedly replied, "Yes, I will report it immediately. Men, why don't you invite senior in?" The captain ordered someone to invite Jianchen into the imperial palace. He then used a movement technique and quickly disappeared from the gates.
A visit from any Heaven Saint Master was no small matter, especially when the person was the Imperial Advisor of the Qin Empire. This was no small matter. As a result, the captain did not dare to tarry at all. He ran off to notify the king as quickly as he could.
In the Great Zhou Country's royal palace, in a magnificent palace, there were several gorgeously dressed beautiful girls with heavy makeup, wearing clothes that barely covered their bodies. In front of them, there was a table made of pure gold that was filled with fine wine and delicacies. Wearing a golden dragon robe, the king who was around fifty years old was sitting in front of the table in high spirits, enjoying the singing and dancing below.
At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly walked in from outside. He directly arrived beside the king and softly whispered something into his ear.
Afterwards, the king's face filled with shock. He stared at the eunuch in interest and said, "What did you say? An Imperial Advisor of the Qin Empire has come to visit my Great Zhou Empire?"
"Yes, your majesty. This was reported to me by the captain of the imperial guards. It can't be false," the eunuch replied.
The king immediately stood up from his chair and quickly made his way out of the hall. At the same time, he said, "Come with me to receive the guest. Immediately send someone to invite the Imperial Advisors over."
Jianchen was warmly invited to a resplendent hall by the king of the Great Zhou Empire. He was warmly received by the king.
Five white-haired old men walked in from outside. As soon as they entered, their gazes all gathered on Jianchen. They then walked over to a few chairs and sat down.
The king immediately introduced them to Jianchen, "Esteemed Imperial Advisors of the Qin Empire, these five are the Imperial Advisors of my Great Zhou Empire."
Jianchen had a faint smile on his face as he cupped his hands towards the five old men. Jianchen was not unfamiliar with some of these five old men. Last time when he followed the people of the Tianqin Clan to the Great Zhou Empire through the spatial gate to Mercenary City, he had seen them before.
The five Imperial Advisors of the Great Zhou Empire also cupped their hands and greeted Jianchen with a friendly expression. After both sides exchanged a few words, one of the Imperial Advisors opened his mouth and said, "For the Qin Empire's Imperial Advisor to come to my Great Zhou Empire, this is my Great Zhou Empire's honor. However, this is not a small matter. I wonder if your distinguished self has anything that can prove your identity."
Jianchen gave a faint smile. He knew that the other side was doubting his identity. After all, the Qin Empire was too far away from here. For an Imperial Advisor of the Qin Empire to suddenly visit the Great Zhou Empire, it was very suspicious.
Jianchen pulled out a purple jade pendant from his Space Ring and tossed it to the old man who had spoken. He said, "I wonder if this can prove my identity."
The old man caught the jade pendant and studied it. The pendant was extremely exquisite. It was engraved with the flag of the Qin Empire. On the front was a large 'Qin' character, while on the back was a large 'Hu' character.
However, when the old man discovered the material of the pendant, his eyes could not help but flash with light. He cried out, "This is actually an Amethyst Soul."
Hearing this, the other four Imperial Teachers and the king of the Great Zhou Country all revealed looks of shock. They naturally knew what the Purple Crystal Soul Essence was. It was a very rare top grade jade that was priceless and very rare. It was something that couldn't be bought with money. It was said that the Amethyst Soul was condensed from the purple Qi of the world. It was extremely precious and rarely seen on the Tian Yuan Continent.
The Imperial Advisors and the king firmly believed Jianchen's identity when they saw that the identity medallion was actually made from the extremely precious Amethyst Soul. However, they were still secretly amazed. They thought to themselves, "The Qin Empire really is one of the eight great kingdoms of the continent. Even the identity medallion of an Imperial Advisor is completely made from Amethyst Soul."
However, they were not people of the Qin Empire after all. Coupled with the fact that they were very far away from the Qin Empire, they did not have a very good understanding of the situation in the Qin Empire. Little did they know that the identity medallion of the Qin Empire's Imperial Advisors was only a golden medallion made from a rare metal and not a purple jade pendant made from Amethyst Soul. There was also no 'Hu' character on the back. Even in the entire Qin Empire, only five people had the right to wear a medallion that was completely made from Amethyst Soul.
The Imperial Advisor returned the jade pendant to Jianchen and said with a faint smile, "We are very sorry for our rude behavior from before. We hope that the Imperial Advisor will not take it to heart."
After his identity was confirmed, everyone treated Jianchen even more kindly.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Jian Chen shifted the topic to the main topic. He said, "I've come to visit your country today because I want to borrow your country's Space Gate. I wonder if that's possible?"
"Of course, of course it is convenient. We can open the Space Gate for the Imperial Advisor at any time." The king agreed to Jianchen's invitation without any hesitation. Then he hesitated for a moment before adding, "Although our Great Zhou Empire is very far away from the Qin Empire, we also hope to become allies with the Qin Empire. I hope that the Imperial Advisor can pass on our intentions to the Qin Empire's king."
"I will definitely pass on these words." Jianchen also agreed to the Great Zhou Empire's request because in this area, he found that only the Great Zhou Empire had a Space Gate. In the future, he might have to use the Great Zhou Empire's Space Gate to go to the Qin Empire, so naturally their relationship couldn't be too stiff.
After that, Jianchen followed the Great Zhou Empire's king to the palace where the Space Gate was set. The Space Gate was an array carved into the ground. It contained the mysteries of space and was very complicated.
One of the State Preceptors immediately took out a few Class 5 Magic Cores from his ring and threw them into the holes around the Spatial Gate. With the supply of energy, the array diagram immediately lit up and a surge of energy emanated from the array diagram. Finally, it condensed into a three-meter-wide gate. The scenery inside the gate was blurry and nothing could be seen clearly.
"Imperial Advisor, I wonder where you are going." The Great Zhou Empire's Imperial Advisor controlling the Space Gate said to Jianchen.
"The Qin Empire!"
The Great Zhou Empire's Imperial Advisor looked at the map. After finding the location, he quickly controlled the Space Gate. Very soon, the chaotic scenery inside the Space Gate gradually became clear. It was a continuous stretch of mountains.
"Because there are no markings, we can't determine the exact location of the Qin Empire. We can only set the other end of the Space Gate to an approximate location. Even if it isn't within the Qin Empire, it shouldn't be far from the Qin Empire. Imperial Advisor, you can go now." The old man controlling the Space Gate said.
"In the future, I will definitely pay you a visit to thank you." Jianchen said this and then directly walked in. In a short step, he crossed over a million miles.
After Jianchen came out of the Space Gate, the Space Gate behind him slowly disappeared. The space behind him quickly returned to its original state. Jianchen looked around and found that he was standing on a flat mountain peak. All around him were continuous mountains.
Jianchen took out a map and looked at it for a while. He then used the sun in the sky to determine the approximate location before flying away. Half a day later, Jianchen finally arrived at the imperial palace of the Qin Empire. He directly landed in the imperial palace.
As soon as he landed, the surrounding soldiers quickly surrounded him with killing intent. At the same time, several powerful auras appeared from various parts of the imperial palace. Several Heaven Saint Masters flew over from the distance with hostility. They quickly surrounded Jianchen.
However, when they saw the appearance of the person who had come, they were slightly stunned. They then clasped their hands together, "Greetings to sir Imperial Protector."
At this moment, the surrounding soldiers also discovered Jianchen's identity. The killing intent they gave off instantly disappeared. Several hundred people simultaneously knelt on one knee and loudly said, "Greetings to sir Imperial Protector." These were all elite soldiers. Every single one of them possessed extraordinary strength. When several hundred people's voices overlapped, it was like a rumbling thunder. The sound shook the sky and spread throughout the entire imperial palace.
Jianchen made the several hundred soldiers stand up. He then turned his head to look at the several Heaven Saint Masters in front of him in confusion. He asked, "What happened to you all just now? Did something happen in the Qin Empire? Why were you so nervous?"
"State Protector, there is something you do not know. Flying is forbidden within the Qinhuang Kingdom's imperial palace. Even we have to go through the palace gates to enter. When we saw someone flying in from outside, we thought it was a provocation," one of the State Protectors said.
Jianchen came to a sudden realization. He hadn't spent much time in the Qin Empire's imperial palace, so he naturally didn't know about these rules.
"You all can disperse. I still have matters to attend to, so I'll go find the king first." With that, Jianchen directly left.
