The back garden was very big, but after walking for a while, they saw a big tree.
The tree was more than ten feet tall and was covered in leaves. It was like a big umbrella, towering there and looking particularly spectacular. This tree was a famous ancient tree, called the Sky-Shrouding Tree.
The Sky Shrouding Tree might not even be able to be described as precious, but rare was still lacking. This was because the branches of this tree could burn for thousands of years without turning into ashes. It was difficult for magic tools below the Heaven Level to leave the slightest mark on it. King Wu's cultivators below the Seventh Level could hardly move it.
If the trunk was used as a defensive tool, its grade would be at least above the Heaven Level. It was indestructible.
The Sky-Shrouding Tree could be said to be full of treasures. They all had their uses. It was just that they varied in size. Looking at the age of this tree, Xiao Yang felt that he could not move this tree even if he tried.
This Sky-Shrouding Tree was considered a precious item even in the Three Thousand Great Worlds. In this small world, it was easy to imagine how rare it was. Even Xiao Yang had only seen it in this place.
Under the tree, two people were playing chess. They seemed to have entered the most tense moment. Now, everyone was very nervous and focused.
Every time they placed a piece, they were extraordinarily cautious. It was obvious that they had reached a critical moment. Every step was extra careful. They were constantly thinking about the result. It was as if they would lose the game if they were the slightest bit careless.
"Brother Xiao, we won't continue with you." After Guard Li said that, he smiled and made a gesture of invitation.
Xiao Yang nodded slightly and walked forward. Every step he took was very steady and there was not a trace of fear or excitement on his face.
Guard Li immediately turned and walked outside with Yang Xun. After all, there were some things that they could not hear. Moreover, there were many situations where even if they knew, it was meaningless.
After getting closer, Xiao Yang also saw the appearance of the two people.
One of them was De Wang. Now, he was in a difficult situation. It was as if he had completely fallen into a desperate situation and could not make a comeback.
On the other hand, the other person looked calm and steady. He seemed to be in a leisurely mood, as if he was waiting for his opponent to make his move. He was not in a hurry at all.
Although no one said anything, the man's natural majesty and the fact that he did not reveal any aura at all, making him look like an ordinary person, was most likely due to him being reserved. The current ruler of the God Realm, the God Emperor!
The Divine Emperor did not wear a dragon robe. Instead, he wore a green robe. He looked like a middle-aged scholar. However, the wisp of heroic spirit between his brows caused people to inevitably feel reverence and admiration from the bottom of their hearts.
Right now, Xiao Yang was constantly calculating in his heart. He was unable to determine the Emperor God's current strength from the other party's aura.
"Little Brother Yan, I asked you to investigate who invaded my Ten Directions Eight Wastelands Map. Do you have any clues?" The God Emperor acted as if he did not see anyone coming and asked with a smile.
It was as if he was talking about a very ordinary matter. However, these words made the young man's heart sink.
Seeing that the distance was suitable, Xiao Yang did not continue forward. He stopped in his tracks and stood respectfully without saying anything.
After all, the other party was in the middle of a chess game. It would be rude to speak and disturb them. Moreover, a true gentleman would not speak while observing a chess game.
De Wang Shen Qiyan sighed and shook his head. "That person is really cunning. The Prime Minister and I have been paying close attention to the change in direction, but we did not find any suspicious signs. Speaking of which, I am really ashamed. We did not even know that we were tricked by someone. In fact, we did not even manage to find a single trace of him even after we investigated one by one. "
This made Shen Qiyan feel very helpless in his heart.
"I feel that the arrogant person suffered a blow from Royal Brother. I'm afraid that his body and soul have been destroyed. As for why we did not find any clues, I'm afraid that someone snuck in. Speaking of which, I have neglected my duty. "Shen Qiyan said helplessly.
This negligence made Shen Qiyan feel very helpless in his heart. He was presiding over this year's Grand Competition of the God Realm, and such a huge mistake had occurred. How could he not blame himself?
Moreover, this was the God Emperor's personal order. That arrogant person hid very well and could not be found at all. It was really a headache, and they did not know where to start.
Therefore, after many guesses, Shen Qiyan felt that unless that person was completely annihilated and his soul was destroyed, how could he have escaped from under his and Jiang Zhangqing's eyes?
After suffering a blow from the God Emperor, with King Wu's Level Eight ability, it was impossible for him to survive. Even if he was lucky enough to survive and not be discovered, was that possible?
When the God Emperor heard this, he placed down a chess piece and said, "You are just too confident. Why, do you think that no one can play tricks under the eyes of the three of us? Since he has the ability to enter my treasure, he naturally has a way to protect himself. "
When the God Emperor said this, Shen Qiyan frowned slightly. The chess piece in his hand was also hesitant, not knowing where to place it.
"Although it's just a feeling and we have not seen him face to face, we can tell that the opponent's soul is powerful. I'm afraid it can't be measured by King Wu's Level Eight ability. After all, although the strength of the soul is very important to ordinary people, there are some monsters who focus on cultivating the soul. Will there be a difference? "The God Emperor said with a smile.
The God Emperor did not seem to be as arrogant as imagined. He seemed like a chatterbox.
However, these words made Xiao Yang slightly surprised. Soon after, a calm smile appeared on his face.
Originally, he thought that he could play some tricks and cross the sea without showing off. It would be fine if he did not show off in the assessment. However, with his current reputation, it was difficult to hide.
The God Emperor seemed to feel the smile on the young man's face, and he smiled as well.
At this moment, Shen Qiyan placed down a chess piece. However, his brows did not relax at all. Instead, he became even more worried.
"Do you know that even the imprint I left behind was erased by that person using some sort of method? From this, you can see how profound his cultivation of the Spirit is." As the Divine Emperor spoke, he calmly placed down a piece.
Shen Qiyan's expression turned extremely ugly. Perhaps it was because he had completely fallen into a disadvantageous position and there was no way to salvage the situation.
Of course, what shocked Shen Qiyan even more was that that person was actually able to erase the mark left behind by the God Emperor. How terrifying was that person's ability?
