The fiery red sun hung high in the sky, emitting intense rays of light. The terrifyingly high temperature sprinkled down, scorching the earth below.
In the boundless desert, a faint figure streaked across the sky with lightning-like speed, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Jianchen flew in the air as he looked at the golden desert below him. He murmured, "According to the distance marked on the map, I'll be able to cross this desert in two hours. After that, I'll be able to reach the Holy Emperor's Empire in two days." The Holy Emperor's Empire was extremely far away from both the Qin Empire and the Kingdom of Gesun. With Jianchen's current speed, it would take him more than ten days to travel from the Kingdom of Gesun to the Holy Emperor's Empire.
Although Jianchen could use the Space Gate of the Qin Empire to reach the Holy Emperor's Empire several million kilometers away, he did not do so. This was because he had already gained some understanding of the Holy Emperor's Empire from Bi Hai and the four Imperial Protector of the Qin Empire, including the matter of how a Class 6 Radiant Saint Master could reach the Class 7 Radiant Saint Master.
If a Radiant Saint Master wanted to reach the Class 7 Radiant Saint Master, they would need the assistance of the Holy Emperor's Saint Artifact. However, the Saint Artifact could not be activated at any time. It would only be activated for a fixed amount of time each time. There was still a year and a half until the next activation.
As a result, Jianchen had plenty of time. As a result, he chose to travel to the Holy Emperor's Empire in this manner. As he traveled, he admired the scenery around him. He was like Xiaoyao.
Jianchen flew past countless mountains, rivers, and bustling cities before finally entering the Holy Emperor's Empire.
As one of the three most powerful empires on the continent, the Holy Emperor's Empire was extremely vast. It was over a hundred times the size of the Kingdom of Gesun. Its population had reached an astonishing number as well, numbering in the tens of billions. Compared to the hundreds of millions of people in the Kingdom of Gesun, it was like an elephant compared to an ant.
The Holy Emperor's Empire had three capital cities. The three capital cities were controlled by three great clans. Each clan controlled a city. The imperial city was one of the three capital cities in the center of the empire, the City of God. the Holy Emperor's Empire's Imperial City.
Near the border of the Holy Empire, there was a bustling and bustling first class city. At this moment, outside this first class city, there was a young man in a light blue robe riding a Class 4 Magical Beast, heading towards the city at a steady pace.
The young man was Jianchen. After entering the Holy Emperor's Empire, he was in no hurry to travel. Instead, he planned to enter the city and learn more about the locals first. After all, the Holy Emperor's Empire was just too unfamiliar to Jianchen. He needed more detailed information.
Jianchen slowly entered the city on his Class 4 Magical Beast. After circling around the wide streets, he arrived before a rather large restaurant. He tied up his mount before striding in.
"Sir, welcome to our Ke Lai Xiang Restaurant. Our Ke Lai Xiang Restaurant has the best chef in the entire city, as well as the most beautiful waitresses in the entire city. We can guarantee that you'll be satisfied. Please come in," a waiter immediately welcomed Jianchen and invited him in with a smile.
Jianchen entered the restaurant and glanced around. He planned on finding a quieter spot, but soon after, his eyes locked onto an old man sitting in a corner. His eyes immediately widened as disbelief flooded his face.
The old man wore a grey robe. His white hair was tied up with a rope and fell behind his back. He was sitting alone in front of a table filled with food, drinking and eating leisurely. The old man looked very ordinary and did not attract any attention. However, Jianchen who had just entered the restaurant was greatly shocked.
Jianchen stared at the old man in shock. At this moment, he simply doubted whether his eyes were playing tricks on him. He immediately rubbed his eyes with both hands. When he looked again, his eyes were filled with uncertainty.
At this moment, the old man suddenly turned his head and stared at Jianchen. His expression was calm and his gaze was deep. He said in a flat tone, "Jianchen, come and sit!"
The soft "Jianchen" made Jianchen tremble all over when he heard it. He softly cried out, "Uncle Xiu, it really is you!" Jianchen's heart churned. He had never thought that he would actually encounter uncle Xiu from Longevity Valley in the Holy Emperor's Empire.
Uncle Xiu did not say anything. He sat there by himself, drinking and eating. He no longer paid any attention to Jianchen.
Jianchen sucked in a deep breath and forcefully suppressed his shock and excitement. He arrived before uncle Xiu and sat down. Afterwards, he immediately asked in doubt, "Uncle Xiu, why have you appeared here?"
Uncle Xiu looked at Jianchen and said, "This time, I've specially come for you!"
"For me?" A sliver of doubt appeared in Jianchen's eyes.
"Jianchen, I know that you've come to the Holy Emperor's Empire this time to break through the 6th Class and become a Class 7 Radiant Saint Master," uncle Xiu said indifferently.
However, the indifferent tone made Jianchen's face change drastically. He stared at uncle Xiu in shock as his heart churned. His identity as a Radiant Saint Master had always been Jianchen's greatest secret. There were not a lot of people who knew about his identity in this world, but Jianchen found it hard to believe when uncle Xiu had found out about it.
A transparent barrier had appeared around the table where Jianchen and uncle Xiu sat. Uncle Xiu's indifferent voice rang out once again, "Jianchen, I cultivate darkness-attributed Saint Force, so I'm extremely sensitive to Radiant Saint Force. I've been secretly paying attention to you recently, so I know about your identity as a Radiant Saint Master. I think I'm not the only one who knows about it. The grand elder of Mercenary City probably knows about it as well."
Jianchen's thoughts raced. He said, "Uncle Xiu, are you the sect master of the Bloodsword sect, Houston? Were you secretly controlling the four Saint Rulers of the Bloodsword sect to help my Changyang Prefecture survive the danger? "
Uncle Xiu nodded, which was equivalent to admitting to this matter. He stopped talking about it with Jianchen and changed the topic, "Jianchen, what identity do you plan on using to break through to the 6th Class?"
Jianchen had thought of this question long ago, so he answered without any hesitation, "It's said that the opportunity to break through to the 6th Class is extremely rare. The Holy Emperor's Empire will never give outsiders this opportunity, so I plan on using my identity as the Imperial Protector of the Qin Empire to obtain this right."
