The imperial capital of the Grand Xia was the core of this major world.
Within the imperial capital of the Grand Xia, there was a towering mountain that was over ten thousand kilometers tall. This mountain was also the tallest mountain within the imperial capital. Its name was … Raindragon Godmountain!
This was also the headquarters of the Raindragon Guard.
Halfway up the mountain, there was a series of enormous teleportation arrays. The teleportation array that Zhou Tong's group had used to arrive here was one of them.
Of course, there were other teleportation arrays here as well. These teleportation arrays led to other major worlds. Every day, countless living beings used these teleportation arrays to travel to and from the various major worlds.
After leaving the plaza, Zhou Tong's group was suddenly able to see the entire imperial capital from a high vantage point.
Halfway up the mountain, Raindragon Godmountain was over three thousand kilometers tall. However, there wasn't a single cloud in this place. Everything was incomparably clear, down to the tiniest detail.
Looking down from here, one could see the majestic city below. One couldn't see the end of it. The only thing one could see was an equally enormous Immortal palace on the opposite side. That was the place where the Grand Xia Emperor usually resided – the Skylight Palace.
Raindragon Godmountain was the tallest mountain within the imperial capital, so the Skylight Palace was the second tallest mountain. Raindragon Godmountain was over ten thousand kilometers tall, while the Skylight Palace was over nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine kilometers tall.
These two buildings were the number one and number two buildings in the entire Grand Xia.
Indeed, Raindragon Godmountain wasn't a natural mountain range. It was an enormous construction treasure. Similarly, the Skylight Palace on the opposite side was the same.
"Do you see that? That's the Skylight Palace. His Majesty is waiting for us there!" The leader of the group began to introduce the Skylight Palace to everyone.
This Skylight Palace was a magic treasure as a whole. It emitted all sorts of treasured light. Gold light, silver light, azure light, violet light, scarlet light … all sorts of treasured light illuminated the entire imperial capital, making it seem as bright as day.
There were no clouds below the Skylight Palace, but clouds began to appear from six thousand kilometers away. The most obvious ones were red clouds, and above them were other clouds. There were a total of nine layers.
In terms of power, it was completely comparable to the Cloudy Palace of the Celestial Realm.
"This Skylight Palace and Divine Raindragon Mountain are at least Immortal-ranked magic treasures. They might even be Pure Yang magic treasures." Zhou Tong silently evaluated.
But it didn't take long for them to arrive at a 'pier' near Divine Mountain Ying Long.
That's right, it was the dock.
The Capital City was simply too large, and the distance between the Raindragon Divine Mountain and the Skylight Palace was tens of thousands of kilometers. However, these two places just happened to be very close to each other, and people would often visit each other. If he allowed the immortals to fly over, wouldn't that mean that the people below would watch the immortals as airplanes every day?
Therefore, there were immortal treasures in the capital that were specially used for moving around — ships. Naturally, there was also such a thing as a "dock".
Zhou Tong and the others were on a black ship with a dragon's head.
Soon, everyone entered the ship. The Dharma treasure was activated, and the huge ship began to slowly fly towards the Skylight Palace.
Zhou Tong leaned against the side of the ship and quietly looked at the scenery below. The ship was very fast, and it didn't take long for them to arrive near the Skylight Palace.
Zhou Tong swept his gaze and looked at the entrance of the Skylight Palace. There were several Godfiends that were hundreds of thousands of feet tall guarding the door.
"The Godfiends guarding the door are all at the Return to Void Realm. Tsk tsk, Emperor Xia's extravagance is quite grand!" Zhou Tong thought to himself.
After the black ship approached the Skylight Palace, a brilliant golden light suddenly erupted from the ship. Then, the entire ship seemed to break through the void as it rapidly ascended. In the blink of an eye, it broke through several layers of clouds and directly arrived at the highest cloud layer of the Skylight Palace.
At the same time, everyone also saw the main hall of the Skylight Palace.
The black ship stopped, and Zhou Tong and the others disembarked as well, arriving at the huge plaza outside the main hall.
"All of you wait here. Without orders, you are not allowed to enter!" The three leaders instructed Zhou Tong and the others. Then, the three leaders directly entered the main hall of the Skylight Palace.
The main hall at the highest point of the Skylight Palace.
The Emperor of the Grand Xia was dressed in a pitch-black dragon robe as he sat on the highest throne. His face was simple and unadorned, and his eyes were like lightning. Wherever his gaze passed, the heavens and the earth seemed to split apart.
Just the aura of majesty that he casually revealed was enough to shock and awe Celestial Immortals.
The people below him were divided into two rows, all of them standing. The ones at the very front were naturally the Celestial Immortals and Fiendgods of the imperial clan of the Grand Xia, while behind them were the Celestial Immortals and Fiendgods of the military.
At a glance, one could tell that there were four or five hundred Celestial Immortals and Fiendgods standing below.
"Your Imperial Majesty!"
The three Celestial Immortals who had entered the main hall simultaneously bowed respectfully.
"You may rise!" The Emperor's majestic voice echoed throughout the heavens and the earth.
"How did the mission go?" The Emperor continued to ask.
The three exchanged glances, and then the woman spoke out. "Your Imperial Majesty, half a year ago, our Raindragon Guard selected a total of 6,213 Chosen from the 3600 commanderies of the empire. On this mission, aside from seven who perished due to accidents, the other 6,206 have all come here. "
"Among them, there are 778 Violet Palace Realm Fiendgods, 3,159 Wanxiang Realm geniuses, 1,993 Primordial Soul Realm geniuses, 273 Void-level Earth Immortals, and 3 Void-level Fiendgods!
After hearing the report, all of the military officials and the princes all nodded slightly. The Grand Xia Dynasty was indeed growing more and more prosperous. This trip to the 3600 commanderies of the empire had resulted in more than six thousand Chosen being selected. This truly was incredible, much more than in the past.
The Grand Xia Emperor asked, "Those three Void-level Fiendgods … did they break through within half a year?"
"Your Imperial Majesty, all of them broke through within half a year. One of them trained in the [Thundergod's Body] and broke through to the Void-level, one trained in the [Windfiend Godly Body], while the last trained in the [Chi Ming Diagram of the Nine Heavens] and made a breakthrough. " Minister Shang continued, "The other two aren't particularly special. However, the one who broke through using the [Chi Ming Diagram of the Nine Heavens] was a Xiantian Fiendgod who was born in Stillwater Commandery many years ago. He is not yet ten years old."
"What?!"
"Not yet ten years old?"
"How is that possible?!"
As soon as these words came out, all of the princes and military officials present revealed looks of shock on their faces.
It was very normal for a Xiantian Fiendgod to train to the Void level, because this was something that required supreme talent to begin with. However, to break through using the [Chi Ming Diagram of the Nine Heavens] … this was abnormal, because this meant that he had to destroy his own Xiantian divine body, then use the [Chi Ming Diagram of the Nine Heavens] to reform his own divine body.
If he trained in this manner, then the difficulty of training in the [Chi Ming Diagram of the Nine Heavens] was no lower than that of others. He also had to gain insights into the fusion and collision of Yin and Yang, water, and fire in order to break through.
For someone who wasn't even ten years old to complete this step … this was utterly inconceivable!
Even the Grand Xia Emperor's face changed.
