It was a rare peaceful place. Under the circumstances that the Beyond Heaven Palace ruled the Western Regions, the disciples of various sects got along peacefully. It was not an exaggeration to call it a paradise.
As they flew, Xie Tian's group of three encountered cultivators passing by from time to time.
Thanks to the Beyond Heaven Palace, these cultivators couldn't help but look at Xie Tian with surprise and kindness after they bowed respectfully to the Zuoqiu brothers.
Xie Tian's face was cold. Otherwise, why would he wear black clothes?
Not to mention how his dedication would affect black clothes in the future, the three of them never stopped communicating with each other, which was incompatible with this peaceful place.
"Conspiracy?"
"What exactly it is is the top secret of the Beyond Heaven Palace. Only the ancestor of the Zuoqiu Clan knows about it," Zuoqiu Heng said.
Zuoqiu Dan explained from the side, "The ancestor of my clan thinks highly of Brother Heng. If he didn't sign up to participate in this trial, the ancestor wouldn't even tell him about it."
Xie Tian nodded. He recalled Liu Yuanmenzhi's unsightly expression when he returned and thought to himself, Could it be that the two elders heard about this as well? It shouldn't be possible …
He realized that he knew very little and couldn't guess, so he didn't pursue the matter and asked with a smile, "How have you two been these past few decades?"
"Alas, it's a long story."
The two brothers looked at each other, and Zuoqiu Dan spoke first, "We returned from the lower worlds without being verified by the Ascending Celestial Pool. The clan reacted greatly, but don't worry, we absolutely didn't reveal any information about you …"
"Would they let you go?"
Xie Tian let the Zuoqiu brothers go not because he was sure they wouldn't leak the secret, but because he didn't care, so he was slightly curious.
Zuoqiu Heng blushed slightly, "Well, when we returned, it just happened to be the time when the Beyond Heaven Palace recruited disciples once in a thousand years. I challenged along the way, overcame all difficulties, and accidentally became a core disciple, so …"
Zuoqiu Heng seemed to be slightly embarrassed to continue speaking, and he hesitated and remained silent. Zuoqiu Dan continued. "Little Brother Heng amazed the world with a single brilliant feat and directly terrified the Ancestor, so all doubts vanished without a trace. On the other hand, I was barely able to pass the challenge and become an Inner Court Disciple."
Xie Tian said joyfully, "Congratulations then. It seems like your battle prowess has been suppressed a lot in the Lower Realm. Only in the Upper Realm can you perform normally …"
The two of them laughed and cursed in their hearts.
"Damn, is this animal pretending not to know?"
"He definitely did it on purpose. If we hadn't been abused by him for so many years, how could we have shocked the world with a single brilliant feat?"
"Damn it, I really want to fight with him and teach him a lesson!"
…
"Looks like you have the same intention …"
Xie Tian, who was extremely sensitive to killing intent, sensed something. He glanced around and found a good place. While flying, he said, "Let's go and spar …"
"Ai ai ai!"
"No, no, no!"
"Haha, you're completely mistaken!"
"We've broken through recently, so we're unable to completely restrain our battle intent … Xie Tian, look, quickly! That's a Secret Realm within the Orbicular Heavens Domain. It's very interesting. Let me take you to have a look …"
…
The two of them who were terrified to death spouted a bunch of nonsense and finally dispelled Xie Tian's intention to spar, and they brought Xie Tian to a forest.
Xie Tian swept his gaze across the forest. The forest covered an area of 5,000km, and every single tree was perfectly straight like a sword. Even though there were no branches or leaves, it gave off a lush and verdant feeling.
"This is a living Forest of Swords …"
Xie Tian spoke of his first impression, and the Zuoqiu brothers seemed as if they'd seen a ghost.
"What the fuck! He can put on a show just based on his feelings?"
"Do we have to introduce him …"
"What's there to introduce? Even he himself is able to sense that … he's gone in! He … he went in without even asking? Isn't he afraid of dying in there? "
…
The two brothers were in the midst of imagining that if Xie Tian really died in the Forest of Swords, they would have to falsely claim the credit for killing the successor of the Evil Emperor when they saw Xie Tian walking out. They were stunned.
"Y-you …"
"What about me?"
"Y-you came out just like that?"
Xie Tian smiled. "I've seen it, so of course I came out. It's a pretty good Forest of Swords. Shall we continue?"
"Ah? Oh, then, let's continue … "
The two brothers brought Xie Tian on a tour of the Orbicular Heavens Domain, but their hearts were filled with bewilderment.
"Brother Heng, do you think he's really just taking a look?"
"How would I know? But … the Forest of Swords should be an extremely difficult trial for inner disciples, right?"
"I know that. Even Innate Saints would find it difficult to pass, and the current best record for inner disciples should be four hours …"
"Then he's really just taking a look. But he's really beastly. He can enter and leave the trial as he pleases, tsk tsk …"
…
"Since the Ancestor thinks highly of it, then why did the two of you betray me?"
Xie Tian asked the Zuoqiu brothers on the way.
The Zuoqiu brothers sighed bitterly at the same time when they heard this.
"Xie Tian, to tell you the truth, the Zuoqiu Clan is the Zuoqiu Clan, and we're more or less related by blood. But the Outer Heaven Palace is different."
"Yeah." Zuoqiu Heng sighed. "In the eyes of outsiders, the Outer Heaven Palace is unattainable. One with 10% of the Emperor Talent can only barely become an outer court disciple, and someone like me with 20% of the Emperor Talent is usually only able to become an inner court disciple. However, in our eyes, the Outer Heaven Palace is purely a slaughterhouse!"
"The competition is so terrifying?" Xie Tian was slightly shocked.
"It's absolutely more terrifying than you think." Zuoqiu Heng said seriously, "Even though the Zuoqiu Clan has some power in the Outer Heaven Palace, so what if it's a powerful clan? In the Outer Heaven Palace, the Elite Disciples are the true rulers … "
Xie Tian's spirits rose.
The Elite Disciples of the Yin Yang Sect only had 20% of the Emperor Talent, and so did Shan Wenbai of the Yellow Dragon Sect.
In the Outer Heaven Palace, 20% of the Emperor Talent could usually only become an inner court disciple. Those like Zuoqiu Heng who could kill their way into the ranks of the core disciples were all slaughtered by Xie Tian and made great contributions.
"The core disciples of the Outer Heaven Palace should be similar to Chou Ao, then the Elite Disciples …"
As Xie Tian was thinking, Zuoqiu Heng gave the answer.
"To become a Elite Disciple of the Outer Heaven Palace, 40% of the Emperor Talent is only the most basic condition." He looked at Xie Tian and said in a serious voice, "Every Elite Disciple of the Outer Heaven Palace lived in ancient times and is an ancient remnant."
Xie Tian was stunned, then he thought about it and asked, "Is it very powerful?"
The Zuoqiu brothers didn't know what to say, so they could only laugh and pointed to the Secret Realm in front of them. "Look, that's another Secret Realm of the Outer Heaven Palace. It's called the Sanskrit Heart Forging Pool. The longer you stay in there … Alright …"
Seeing that Xie Tian had entered the Sanskrit Heart Forging Pool, the two brothers seized the time to ridicule him.
"Oh my god, isn't the ancient remnant powerful …"
"Only he would dare to say that!"
"Actually, there are ancient remnant species that aren't powerful, but are they still ancient remnant species …"
"Sigh, that group of evildoers. Although they only appeared in this generation, they have never lost their source of god for countless eras. There's also Daozu who sealed heaven and earth to prevent the loss of the aptitude and the disappearance of the Dao body. It's infuriating to compare oneself to others … Eh? That animal is out! "
"He only stayed for six breaths. If I didn't know that the best time in the Sanskrit Heart Forging Pool is 45 minutes, I would be scared out of my wits …"
"Then, should we show him that you're powerful?"
"Do you think he cares?"
