The reason Zhuo Bufan wanted to make a trip to the Great Ocean Dynasty was because he had a deep relationship with the dynasty.
The ancestor of the Great Ocean Dynasty, Hai Long, was once a follower of Ji Hyun Ho.
Ji Hyun Ho had left his Sky Sealing Imprint in the ancestral land of the Hai Family, which was the current imperial tomb of the Great Ocean Dynasty.
The most important purpose of this trip to the Great Ocean Dynasty was to retrieve the Sky Sealing Imprint.
Although Zhuo Bufan already had a divine weapon like the Compassion Sword, the Sky Sealing Imprint was still very important to Zhuo Bufan.
Zhuo Bufan brought Zhuo Bufan to the capital of the Great Ocean Dynasty, Vast City!
Vast City was located on an inland sea. The Great Ocean Dynasty used Vast City as its foundation to establish a powerful empire.
There were three super empires in the Pan Huang Territory: the Great Ocean Dynasty, the Great Qi Dynasty, and the Great Xu Dynasty.
These three empires were like three pillars of a tripartite balance of power that controlled the entire Pan Huang Territory.
Among them, the Great Ocean Dynasty was the oldest and had the deepest foundation.
After all, it had existed for more than two hundred thousand years. The fact that a dynasty could exist for hundreds of thousands of years showed how powerful it was.
Of course, this was mainly due to the dynasty's orderly inheritance.
Since the founding of the Great Ocean Dynasty, it had a national treasure, which was the family genealogy that Zhuo Bufan had helped find.
This genealogy had been passed down since the first emperor, Hai Long. It was already a supreme treasure of the Great Ocean Dynasty.
The one who obtained the genealogy would obtain the world. This was a maxim that had been passed down in the Hai Family by Vangu.
Of course, Zhuo Bufan didn't know this secret.
He had come to Vast City mainly to find the Purple Marquis, who was also known as Hai Xiaoyun.
When Zhuo Bufan had given the genealogy to Hai Xiaoyun, Hai Xiaoyun had promised Zhuo Bufan that he could look for him at his residence when he came to the Sea Dynasty.
However, when Zhuo Bufan arrived at Vast City, he realized that things weren't as simple as he had thought.
This was because Zhuo Bufan had seen a warrant for the arrest of the Purple Marquis Hai Xiaoyun on the street.
That's right, Purple Marquis Hai Xiaoyun had become a wanted criminal. His residence had been sealed, and his whereabouts were unknown.
After Zhuo Bufan inquired, he roughly knew what had happened in the Vast City in the past month.
It turned out that just a month ago, the situation in the Ocean Dynasty had already changed.
Emperor Hagrid had to abdicate because of the Mandate of Heaven.
The Crown Prince, Hai Tu, smoothly waited for his position under the support of various forces.
However, on the day of the ascension ceremony, Hai Xiaoyun came back with the genealogy.
Originally, he thought that this was a good opportunity to strike back. But who would have thought that the Crown Prince would use such a brilliant method to frame Hai Xiaoyun for stealing the genealogy book and convict her of stealing the country?
Under the protection of the bodyguards, Hai Xiaoyun managed to break out of the encirclement.
On that day, the Imperial Family's courtyard was bathed in blood. In the end, Hai Xiaoyun was rescued by a Primordial Spirit Realm expert and disappeared from the Oceanic Dynasty.
Since then, the entire Oceanic Dynasty had Hai Xiaoyun's arrest warrant.
After learning the whole story, Zhuo Bufan realized the importance of the genealogy in the Great Sea Dynasty.
"So it's a genealogy book for the throne."
"What a pity. This Hai Xiaoyun actually lost even though she had a King Bomb."
In Zhuo Bufan's view, Hai Xiaoyun had lost miserably.
He had a treasure for the throne, but he still couldn't rightfully ascend to the throne.
"Maybe he doesn't have the ability to become the Emperor! An Emperor has to be brave and resourceful. "
"Forget it. My goal is the Heaven-Sealing Seal. The struggle for the throne has nothing to do with me."
Zhuo Bufan didn't want to interfere with the Hai family's struggle for the throne.
Although the Hai family had some relationship with him from his previous life, that didn't mean that Zhuo Bufan would care too much about them.
"Zhuo Yue, let's go to the palace!"
After saying that, Zhuo Bufan brought Zhuo Yue outside the palace.
However, he wasn't a minister or a relative of the Imperial Family. Therefore, he couldn't enter the Imperial City as he wished.
Zhuo Bufan thought about barging in, but doing so would cause too much of a commotion. He might even attract the attention of the heavens.
"Halt. The Imperial City is an important place. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter."
As expected, Zhuo Bufan and the others were stopped outside the palace.
Zhuo Bufan smiled when he saw this.
"I am Zhuo Bufan, a black-robed disciple who just returned from the Severing Sky Mountain. I have come to the Sea Dynasty to meet the Emperor and ask for a job."
Zhuo Bufan thought for a moment. Since he couldn't barge in, he could only use the secular method.
Zhuo Bufan was also a black-robed disciple. Since ancient times, black-robed disciples had been fought over by various countries.
After all, they had been chosen by Pan Huang. They were born noble and had the right to enter the Severing Sky Mountain.
Now that a black-robed disciple had come in person, the guards of the Imperial City didn't dare show any neglect.
"May I ask if you have the academy's official seal?"
The guard asked cautiously, afraid that Zhuo Bufan would be displeased.
After Zhuo Bufan heard this, he flipped his palm and a jade token appeared in his hand.
This was Zhuo Bufan's official seal, which was equivalent to a student's identity card. The people of the Imperial Palace could use this official seal to check if Zhuo Bufan was really a black-robed disciple.
The guard took the official seal and spoke to Zhuo Bufan.
"Please wait here for a moment. I will submit the official seal to the higher-ups for verification. Once it is verified that you are a black-robed disciple, we will not dare to neglect you."
"Go on!"
Zhuo Bufan knew that there was a red tape to follow, so he didn't make things difficult for the guard.
The guard took Zhuo Bufan's official seal and entered the Imperial Palace.
…
The official seal naturally wouldn't be handed directly to the Emperor. After all, the guard didn't have the qualifications to meet the Emperor.
He passed the information to his superior, who then passed it to the Commander of the Imperial Army guarding the Imperial Palace. After the Commander of the Imperial Army looked through it, he passed it to the Prime Minister of the Imperial Palace.
The Prime Minister of the Imperial Palace was called Jin Ziweng. He used to be the First Prince's number one advisor. Now that the First Prince had become the Emperor, he naturally became the Prime Minister.
Jin Ziweng was a little excited when he saw Zhuo Bufan's official seal.
After all, a black-robed disciple taking the initiative to seek a position would be of great help to the Ocean Dynasty's new policies. It was simply sending charcoal in the snow.
However, when Jin Ziweng took Zhuo Bufan's official seal to the Grand Council, he found out that Zhuo Bufan also came from Kaitian City's Pan Huang Academy. Jin Ziweng frowned.
Jin Ziweng took Zhuo Bufan's official seal and found Emperor Hai Tu.
Hai Tu smiled calmly when he saw Zhuo Bufan's official seal.
"It seems that lord was right. What should come will come in the end."
"Prime Minister, let him in. We'll catch him like a turtle in a jar."
Jin Ziweng hesitated.
"Your Majesty, this is a black-robed disciple who just returned from Mount Severing. If we do this, won't we …"
"What are you afraid of? We have that lord backing us. Why should we be afraid of a black-robed disciple? "
"Don't worry about it. This is also the lord's intention. If something happens, that lord will be there! "
"Is that lord really reliable?" Jin Ziweng asked.
The Emperor said angrily.
"Prime Minister, do you doubt that lord's identity?"
"This old subject doesn't dare. This old subject will go and prepare."
Jin Ziweng knew that he was asking for a rebuff, so he didn't say anything else and left the palace.
… …
Outside the city, Zhuo Bufan was already getting impatient from waiting.
At this moment, a gorgeous sedan chair came out of the palace. The guards at the gate immediately knelt.
"Brother, it seems that an important figure has arrived. Should we kneel?"
Zhuo Yue saw everyone kneel and thought that he should kneel as well.
But Zhuo Bufan said, "Don't.
Little Yue, remember this. No one in this world is worthy of your kneeling. Not even the heavens. "
"Then Zhuo Yue will only kneel to you from now on!" Zhuo Yue said obediently.
"Silly child, you don't need to kneel to me, do you understand?"
Zhuo Bufan knew that Zhuo Yue had just become a human and had many human rules to learn.
This matter couldn't be rushed. He had to take it one step at a time.
While Zhuo Bufan and Zhuo Yue were talking, an elder stepped out of the sedan chair.
His white beard touched the ground and he looked like the embodiment of wisdom.
He walked up to Zhuo Bufan and bowed with both hands.
"This old man is the Prime Minister of the Hai Dynasty, Jin Ziweng. I have verified that you are indeed a black-robed disciple. His Majesty has ordered me to personally welcome you. Please follow me into the palace. "
After Jin Ziweng finished speaking, Zhuo Bufan calmly nodded and said.
"Then please lead the way."
Zhuo Bufan then followed Prime Minister Jin Ziweng into the main hall of the imperial palace.
The hall was resplendent and dazzling. Emperor Hai Tu was sitting on the throne.
Zhuo Bufan glanced at him but didn't kneel. Instead, he bowed with both hands. "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Seeing that Zhuo Bufan did not kneel, Hai Tu, who was sitting on the throne, was obviously dissatisfied.
"Why don't you kneel when you see me?"
Hai Tu was the emperor. Although he didn't have the right to be emperor, that was exactly why he needed the approval of others.
Therefore, everyone in the hall had to kneel down to him. Only then would he be able to feel at ease.
After all, he had been painstakingly working for the throne for a long time.
However, Zhuo Bufan bowed and replied.
"I'm sorry. I've only ever knelt to my parents and teachers. I don't kneel to anyone else."
Zhuo Bufan rejected him decisively.
His words immediately angered the person on the throne.
"How dare you! Don't think that you can ignore the laws of our dynasty just because you are a black-robed disciple."
"You are only a black-robed disciple and not Pan Huang's disciple. I have the right to make you kneel. "
As soon as Emperor Haitu's voice fell, a group of imperial guards wearing golden armor rushed in from outside the main hall and surrounded Zhuo Bufan.
Zhuo Bufan shook his head helplessly when he saw this scene.
"Is this how the Ocean Dynasty treats its guests? I am a black-robed disciple personally appointed by Pan Huang. Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that the Ocean Dynasty won't be able to recruit any black-robed disciples in the future? "
Black-robed disciples were highly valued in the secular world, especially in the various great empires. Basically, black-robed disciples would eventually become pillars of the empires.
Therefore, Emperor Hai Tu's current treatment of Zhuo Bufan was clearly because he was rejecting black-robed disciples.
However, Emperor Hai Tu snorted when he heard this.
"Hmph! Zhuo Bufan, you're really something. Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you are a black-robed disciple.
It is true that you are a black-robed disciple, but are you really here to seek refuge with the Ocean Dynasty?
Don't think that I don't know that you are from the same academy as that traitor. I now suspect that you are in cahoots with that traitor.
It was that traitor who asked you to hide by my side and wait for an opportunity to make a move! "
Emperor Hai Tu thought that Zhuo Bufan was in cahoots with the Purple Marquis, Hai Xiaoyun.
Zhuo Bufan finally understood the meaning of Emperor Hai Tu's words. In the end, Zhuo Bufan couldn't help but laugh.
"How foolish!"
"I originally thought that Hai Xiaoyun was a fool, but I didn't expect you to be even more foolish."
Zhuo Bufan originally didn't want to cause trouble, but now that this foolish emperor had taken the initiative to find fault with him, Zhuo Bufan didn't want to waste his time here.
"Audacious, you dare to insult this emperor. Men, execute him on the spot and kill him!"
As soon as Emperor Hai Tu's voice fell, the surrounding golden-armored guards rushed towards Zhuo Bufan.
However, as soon as they got close to Zhuo Bufan, they were sent flying by Zhuo Bufan.
For a moment, the armors fell to the ground with a crackling sound.
"Audacious madman, you dare to use force in the Golden Imperial Hall, hand over your life!"
Seeing that the ordinary guards were powerless to fight, the commander of the Imperial Guard flew out.
This Imperial Guard commander was a Yuan Dan expert. His eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. He slashed his blade towards Zhuo Bufan.
However, what he received in return was only a glance from Zhuo Bufan.
Zhuo Bufan glared at him. In the next second, the Imperial Guard commander stood in place indifferently. Then, blood flowed out from his seven orifices and his body exploded.
"Damn it, how can a black-robed disciple be so powerful?"
Obviously, this emperor didn't expect that a black-robed disciple like Zhuo Bufan would be so powerful.
One should know that an ordinary black-robed disciple was at most in the Heavenly Origin Realm.
Given the strength of the Imperial Guard commander, he could easily take down an ordinary black-robed disciple.
Zhuo Bufan wasn't an ordinary black-robed disciple.
"Where is the Shadow Army? Come out and save the emperor!"
Emperor Hai Tu shouted in fear.
At this moment, four black-robed men flew out from the shadows of the Golden Imperial Hall.
They were the emperor's last line of defense, the Shadow Army.
When the four of them joined forces, their strength was comparable to that of an Essence Soul Realm expert.
Seeing the Shadow Army flying out, the emperor calmed down.
Obviously, he was very confident that his Yinjun army could easily kill Zhuo Bufan.
However, at the moment when the Shadow Army joined forces to attack Zhuo Bufan, Zhuo Bufan raised his hand and waved it. Saber light and sword shadows flashed and sparks flew.
No one saw what happened. They only saw the four black-robed men turn into ashes and disappear from the Golden Imperial Hall.
Bang!
In the end, Zhuo Bufan jumped and landed on the throne. He then stepped on the armrest of the Dragon Throne.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a cold smile as he looked at the emperor who was completely stunned.
"You won't listen to me when I talk to you nicely. Do you want to fight with me?"
"I used to look down on that idiot Hai Xiaoyun, but now it seems that you are even more stupid than that guy."
"In that case, you should quit being the emperor, lest you destroy the foundation of the Hai Family in Vangu."
After Zhuo Bufan finished speaking, he was about to reach out and attack Hai Tu.
However, at this moment …
Bang!
Suddenly, there was a loud boom in the Golden Imperial Hall. It was the sound of a sonic boom.
A black figure flew into the Golden Imperial Hall at a speed faster than the speed of sound.
Zhuo Bufan reacted almost immediately. As he turned around, he raised his hand and caught the other party's fist.
Rumble!
Powerful energy poured out crazily, like the sea breaking through a dam, and flattened the entire Golden Imperial Hall.
At this moment, the most sacred and solemn Golden Imperial Hall of the Great Ocean Dynasty was completely destroyed.
Zhuo Bufan frowned slightly, looking at the person who attacked him. He could not help but widen his eyes.
"It's you?"
