Above the Saint level and below the Great Emperor level, there was a realm known as the Peerless Realm.
In the Deep Blue World, they were peerless experts. In the Land of Exile, they were kings. Above the sea, they were Saint Kings.
From the Solitary Sword Sect to the Saint King Hall, it took the two of them half a day to arrive.
"Senior, that is the Sage King Hall," the Third Sword Throne said as he pointed to a large hall that was suspended in the air and surrounded by white clouds.
The King Sage Hall was a floating palace that was nine hundred and ninety-nine meters above the sea. It was ninety-nine meters tall and was entirely black with golden edges. It had an ancient elegance to it.
The floating hall was a unique treasure. It had a strong defensive power and could withstand the attack of a Saint King.
The Saint King Hall looked big and could easily accommodate thousands of people. However, in the Sky Blue Sea Territory, there were only a dozen Saint Kings.
At the entrance of the Saint King Palace, there were two black clothed people standing there. They didn't move at all, as if they were two statues. However, Chu Mu could feel the weak aura coming from them. These were two human cultivators. Moreover, their cultivation had reached the peak of the Nine Star Saint Rank. Their strength was comparable to a Dark Star Sword Saint. However, their identities were merely Saint King Palace guards.
Most of the time, the guards of the Saint King Hall were comparable to the leaders of the three major forces.
"Sir, I am the Third Sword Throne of the Solitary Sword Sect. I have brought a senior here to ask the Saint Kings." The Third Sword Throne flew over and spoke to the two guards.
Hearing that the other party was the Third Sword Throne of the Solitary Sword Sect, the two guards didn't dare to be negligent. After all, the Solitary Sword Sect was one of the three great powers of the Human Clan in this region of the sea. The Fifth Sword Throne was filled with peak Nine Star experts, and they were extremely powerful. It could be said that they had status and power, and were second only to Saint Kings.
Soon after, they looked at Chu Mu. They felt that Chu Mu was even younger than the Solitary Sword Sect's Third Sword Throne, and were somewhat bewildered. However, the Solitary Sword Sect's Third Sword Throne didn't need to make fun of them.
"Please wait for a moment, I'll go and report this." One of the guards cupped his hands and quickly turned to enter the main hall of the King Sage Hall.
Not long after, the guard appeared again.
"The two of you, the Eighth Saint King invites you in," the guard said. He stepped aside, allowing Chu Mu and the other to enter.
From the entrance to the main hall, there was a corridor that was about a hundred meters long.
Soon, Chu Mu and the Third Sword Throne entered the hall.
As soon as he entered the main hall, he felt his vision darken. It was as if he had gone from day to night. A powerful aura descended from the sky, suppressing him.
The Third Sword Throne's expression suddenly changed. The feeling of suddenly entering the darkness and facing the pressure of a powerful aura made him feel extremely uncomfortable. He could not bear it, and with a grunt, he was about to be crushed.
It wasn't that his willpower wasn't strong enough, but the difference in strength was too obvious. It was like the difference between heaven and earth. No matter how strong one's willpower was, there would always be a limit.
At this time, the Third Sword Throne only felt that he was surrounded by a force. That force helped him resist the terrifying aura descending from the sky, weakening it to the point where he could bear it.
"Oh, so it really is a Saint King level elite." A voice sounded, and the darkness disappeared in an instant. The terrifying aura dissipated as well, as if everything before was just an illusion.
The main hall appeared before Chu Mu and the Third Sword Throne's eyes.
The simple layout of the main hall was very simple, but it contained a unique charm. It was a charm that was close to the Way. It made people feel comfortable and comfortable just by looking at it.
In the main hall, there were a total of 15 seats. With one seat as the center, there were seven seats on each side. Before they came, the Third Sword Throne had already told Chu Mu that there were 15 thrones in the King Sage Hall. These were the 15 thrones.
Among them, on the last throne on the left sat an old man in black. His eyes were dark and deep. It was as if he was the one who created the darkness and released the aura to suppress it. He wanted to test Chu Mu's strength.
The result of the test showed that Chu Mu was also a Saint King level elite. Perhaps, his strength was not below his.
"I am the Eighth Throne of the King Sage Hall. You can call me Eighth Saint King." The old man in black on the Eighth Throne stood up and said with a smile, "How should I address you?"
"Chu Mu." Chu Mu said lightly.
"Sir Chu Mu, are you not a cultivator from the Azure Sea Territory?" Eighth Saint King asked again.
"That's right. I am from the Deep Blue Continent. Due to some reasons, I came to the Azure Sea Territory by accident. I want to go back. I heard that the King Sage of the King Sage Hall might know the route to the Deep Blue Continent. Hence, I came to visit you." Chu Mu explained the purpose of his visit to the King Sage Hall clearly to avoid guessing.
"I see. The King Sage Hall does have a map to the Deep Blue Continent." Eighth Saint King nodded and said, "Although this map is not very valuable, it was left behind by the seniors of the King Sage Hall. Normally, outsiders are not allowed to see it."
"Sir Eighth Saint King, what price do I have to pay?" Chu Mu asked directly.
Normally, outsiders would not be allowed to see it. This was not absolute. However, Chu Mu was prepared before he came. Hence, as long as the other party's request was not excessive, he would agree to it. He would get the map as soon as possible and rush back to the Deep Blue Continent.
"Sir Chu Mu, what do you think of the Human Tribe in the Azure Sea Territory?" Eighth Saint King asked. This question seemed to be irrelevant.
"I have only been here for a short period of time. I do not have much contact with the Human Tribe. Hence, I do not have any opinions." Chu Mu replied. This was the truth.
"That's true. However, no matter what, Sir Chu Mu is still a member of the Human Tribe." Eighth Saint King pondered and said, "When the King Sage Hall was at its peak, we had a total of 15 King Sages. We dominated the Azure Sea Territory. We were on par with the Sea Tribe and the Sea Beast Clan. However, a hundred years ago, two King Sages were assassinated. This caused the strength of the King Sage Hall to decrease. In terms of top combat power, we were pulled apart from the Sea Tribe and the Sea Beast Clan.
"At that time, there was no evidence to prove who did it. However, the spearhead pointed to the Sea Tribe's Ancestor Blood Shark and the Sea Beast Clan's Sea King. However, there was insufficient evidence. The Sea Tribe and the Sea Beast Clan were very strong. The Human Tribe could not seek justice at all." Eighth Saint King's words were filled with anger.
Out of the 15 King Sages, two of them had been assassinated. Their strength had obviously decreased. Most importantly, although they knew who the murderer was, they did not have direct evidence. Without evidence, they could not identify the murderer. The Sea Tribe and the Sea Beast Clan could completely deny it.
"Eighth Saint King, if you have anything to say, just say it." Chu Mu said.
"Alright. Sir Chu Mu, I would like to invite you to join the King Sage Hall." Eighth Saint King took a deep breath and said in a solemn tone.
"Join the King Sage Hall?" Chu Mu did not know that Eighth Saint King had such thoughts. However, he still said, "Thank you, Eighth Saint King, for your attention. However, I am not a cultivator of the Azure Sea Region. I will return to the Azure Continent. I will not stay here."
"I understand. However, Sir Chu Mu is a King Sage elite. If you are willing to become the King Sage of the King Sage Hall, even if it is only in name, you will be able to strengthen the Human Tribe and intimidate the Sea Tribe and the Sea Beast Clan." Eighth Saint King said solemnly.
"If that is the case, then I will join the King Sage Hall." Chu Mu said. Speaking of which, it was just a formality. It was not a bad thing. Moreover, he was also part of the Human Tribe. It was only right for him to contribute to the survival of the Human Tribe.
"Alright. Haha. Our King Sage Hall has a new King Sage elite." Eighth Saint King was overjoyed. "Sir Chu Mu, the two King Sages who died back then were the Eleventh Saint King and the Fifteenth Saint King. Their thrones have been preserved. Which throne would you like to choose?"
As he said that, he seemed to be afraid that Chu Mu did not understand. He explained again, "In the King Sage Hall, other than the First Saint King, the ranking of the other King Sages has nothing to do with their strength. It is basically based on the order in which they entered the King Sage Hall."
"I will choose the Fifteenth Throne." Chu Mu said. This ranking did not mean much to him.
Although Eighth Saint King said that the ranking had nothing to do with one's strength, if he chose the Eleventh Throne, perhaps the King Sages below the Eleventh Throne would not feel good.
"Alright, alright. Now, I will address you as the Fifteenth Saint King." Eighth Saint King laughed and said, "After a hundred years, the King Sage Hall has a new King Sage. It is a blessing for the Human Tribe of the Azure Sea Region. This is a big matter. I will go and inform the other King Sages to come here."
Eighth Saint King did things swiftly and decisively. As soon as he finished speaking, his figure flashed and quickly disappeared. Not long after, he reappeared again. This time, he had already sent out a notice.
"Fifteenth Saint King, please wait for a moment. The other King Sages will be here soon," Eighth Saint King said.
However, just as he finished speaking, a terrifying aura suddenly rushed in from outside. It was the aura of a King Sage, and it was filled with murderous intent.
"They are here so soon?" Eighth Saint King was stunned. He immediately reacted. This aura did not belong to any of the King Sages in the King Sage Hall. It was more like …
"The murderer who dared to kill my descendant, get out here." A shocking roar was heard, and a monstrous murderous intent surged.
"Fifteenth Saint King, I will go and see who dares to cause trouble in the King Sage Hall." As soon as Eighth Saint King finished speaking, his figure flashed and appeared outside the hall. Chu Mu and the Third Sword Throne also left the hall and went outside.
What entered his eyes was a huge blood cloud that covered an area of a hundred miles. Monstrous blood aura surged out from the blood cloud and rushed in all directions. Under the blood cloud, a blood-red figure stood in the air. His aura was incomparably terrifying.
