Hearing the cold snort, Qin Yu turned around to look at the source of the snort. The person who let out the cold snort was a cold and indifferent middle-aged man. His pair of ice-cold eyes contained viciousness and savagery.
"What a ruthless person." Qin Yu still had a tranquil smile on his face.
The strength of the person before him could be considered to be pretty good. He was a seventeen star Emperor. Merely in terms of body cultivation, he was on par with Chu Feng. Unfortunately … if they were to truly fight, Qin Yu was confident that he would be able to take care of his opponent in a single round.
"Liu Xing, this is Vice Sect Master Liu Lan. Vice Sect Master Liu Lan has reached seventeen star Emperor level. He is the number two expert in our Gold Punishment Sect." Great Elder Fu Lan immediately said. "The person beside Vice Sect Master Liu Lan is Vice Sect Master Bao Yu. Of the three great Vice Sect Masters, you should know the last one. He is Vice Sect Master Kou Feng. As for this person, he is our Gold Punishment Sect's highly respected Guardian Elder. "
In the main hall, the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan was seated on the main seat.
On the right hand side of the Gold Punishment Lord were three seats. The two great Vice Sect Masters, Liu Lan and Bao Yu, were seated on them. There was also an empty seat. Qin Yu guessed that it was Vice Sect Master Kou Feng's seat.
On the left hand side of the Gold Punishment Lord were four seats. They were occupied by the Guardian Elder. As for the other three seats, they were all empty. Qin Yu knew that those ought to be the seats for Wen Feng, the Great Elder and himself.
Qin Yu merely bowed slightly and said indifferently. "Liu Xing pays his respects to Vice Sect Master Liu Lan, Vice Sect Master Bao Yu and Guardian Elder."
Immediately after, Qin Yu no longer looked at Liu Lan. Instead, he looked to the Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan. He bowed slightly and said. "Liu Xing pays his respects to Your Majesty." Qin Yu's expression and words all displayed his proud and aloof personality.
When ordinary people saw the Gold Punishment Lord, they would all bow and say 'Your Majesty.' However, Qin Yu merely bowed slightly and said 'My Majesty.' The difference between the two words was enormous.
"Consecrated Liu Xing is truly too arrogant." Vice Sect Master Liu Lan said with a sneer.
However, Qin Yu completely ignored this Vice Sect Master Liu Lan.
Vice Sect Master Liu Lan's face immediately changed. This Liu Xing was actually ignoring his existence. How could he not be furious? Back then, Liu Lan had wanted to become the Gold Punishment Lord. Unfortunately, he was a level weaker than Xing Yuan. That was why he became the Vice Sect Master. Other than Xing Yuan, he had never thought highly of anyone else.
"Liu Lan, Liu Xing's temper might be a bit arrogant. You shouldn't take it to heart." The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan spoke.
Liu Lan shot a cold glance at Qin Yu and said no more.
Qin Yu didn't care about the blue sulfur at all. He knew … that the blue sulfur didn't affect him at all.
"Liu Xing, I am very happy to hear that you have come to the Sacred Mountain. I originally thought that you would continue to work hard on your cultivation and not care about this position," Xing Yuan said with a faint smile.
Xing Yuan's face was very angular. Even though he was sitting there, he gave off a feeling of being as heavy as Mount Tai. Thus, no one dared to look down on him in the slightest.
"Your Majesty, Liu Xing has come to the Sacred Mountain to accept the position of Consecration. However, the true reason why he has come here is not the position of Consecration," Wen Feng said with a smile. At the same time, he looked to Qin Yu. Qin Yu took over the conversation, nodded and said. "Your Majesty, the reason why I have come to the Sacred Mountain is because I hope that Your Majesty can bestow upon me a passage title plate to enter the Bewitching God Temple."
"Bewitching God Temple!"
Liu Lan, Bao Yu, Kou Feng and the others, including the Gold Punishment Lord, were all shocked. Even the Guard Elder who had been resting with his eyes closed the entire time opened his turbid eyes and took a glance at Qin Yu. Then, he continued to close his eyes.
"Bewitching God Temple. Although there are Divine artifacts there, with your strength, Liu Xing, you shouldn't need any Divine artifacts. As for High Grade Divine artifacts, the possibility of obtaining them is very low. "Vice Sect Master Bao Yu said.
Qin Yu remained silent.
How could these people possibly know what Qin Yu was relying on?
"Liu Xing, the Three Great Sovereigns of our Dark Star Realm have already made a rule that the Bewitching God Temple would normally be closed. Only once every hundred thousand years will the Bewitching God Temple be opened." Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan explained with a frown.
Qin Yu frowned.
"How long until the next opening of the Bewitching God Temple's entrance?" Qin Yu asked.
"The last time it opened was over sixty thousand years ago. There are still over thirty thousand years until the next opening." Great Elder Fu Lan replied.
Over thirty thousand years?
Qin Yu was simply unable to wait that long. Qin Yu immediately said. "Your Majesty, it is said that the entrance to the Bewitching God Temple was sealed by the Three Great Sovereigns using their Inherited Treasures. Only the passage title plates refined by the Three Great Sovereigns can be opened. I wish to request Your Majesty to help me open it once. May I know what sort of request Your Majesty needs in order for me to agree? "
Qin Yu's question had clearly displayed his determination to enter the Bewitching God Temple.
"It is not that I am unwilling. As you are a Consecrated of our Gold Punishment Sect, I am naturally able to agree to your request. Merely … the two Great Sovereigns of the Black Flame Sect and the White Profound Sect might not necessarily agree to it. The reason why they made this rule, sealed it and allowed everyone to enter the Bewitching God Temple every hundred thousand years is because of two reasons. Firstly, it is to prevent people who are not from our Dark Star Realm from forcibly entering the Dark Star Realm. Secondly, it is to ensure that the Divine Artifacts in the Dark Star Realm are still under the control of our three factions. "
Qin Yu's heart relaxed slightly.
"Since Your Majesty has agreed to it, why don't you invite the Black Flame Lord and the White Profound Lord over to discuss it?" Qin Yu said sincerely.
Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan lightly smiled and nodded. "Very well, I will invite the two of them. Merely, the possibility of them agreeing is very low. The Black Flame Sect and the White Profound Sect have been competing with us the entire time."
"Liu Xing is already extremely grateful that Your Majesty is able to invite the other two Great Sovereigns over. If we are unable to reach an agreement, then Liu Xing will have no choice but to give up on entering. "Qin Yu said with a smile.
"Since you are prepared to fail, then this matter will be easy to handle." The Gold Punishment Lord's impression of the Liu Xing in front of him became a lot better.
The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan was a person with a very good temper. Everyone who had interacted with Xing Yuan knew that. Even though he had become a Great Sovereign, Xing Yuan still did not have the airs of a Great Sovereign.
"Very well, let's not waste any more time. I will now officially bestow upon you the position of Consecration." The Gold Punishment Lord suddenly stood up. Immediately, the several people who were still seated also stood up. At this moment, Qin Yu also bowed in a very well-mannered manner.
The same sort of etiquette as the cultivators of the Dark Star Realm.
He placed his left fist on his right chest and bowed!
"Accept it." The Gold Punishment Lord Xing Yuan placed two items before Qin Yu.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qin Yu received the two items.
These two items, one was an imperial decree and the other was the title plate of Consecration. That imperial decree was a piece of cloth made of special silk. At the very least, its toughness was comparable to that of a top quality Immortal artifact.
"Wen Feng, bring Liu Xing to the Ancient Ancestor Palace and the Inheritance Palace to have a look." Said the Gold Punishment Lord with a light smile.
Wen Feng stood up. "Yes, Your Majesty."
*****
The Front Palace, the Main Palace and a series of other palaces were constructed on the main peak of the Sacred Mountain. At the same time, there were also many residences for cultivators. As for the seventeen mountains surrounding the main peak, seven of them were private residences. As for the other eight, they were residences of the previous generations of Gold Punishment Lords. The remaining two were the most important palaces of the Gold Punishment Sect.
These two places were respectively the Ancient Ancestor Palace and the Inheritance Palace.
The Ancient Ancestor Palace occupied an extremely vast area. It occupied nearly seventy percent of the entire mountain. As for Qin Yu and Wen Feng, they were currently outside the entrance of the Ancient Ancestor Palace.
"Stop. Lord Wen Feng, please show your title plate." The guard of the Ancient Ancestor Palace shouted coldly.
Qin Yu looked to Wen Feng. Wen Feng explained. "The Ancient Ancestor Palace and the Inheritance Palace are both important places of the Gold Punishment Sect. The number of people in the entire Gold Punishment Sect that possess the qualifications to enter them does not exceed ten. As for you, the new Consecrated, you naturally possess the qualifications to enter them."
Qin Yu immediately displayed his Consecrated title plate.
After the guard saw the title plate, he immediately bowed respectfully. "Lord Consecrated, please enter."
Qin Yu and Wen Feng stepped over the doorway and entered the enormous Ancient Ancestor Palace. The Ancient Ancestor Palace was separated into a front hall and a rear hall. A large number of plaques were hung in the front hall.
Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from looking over.
"The third Gold Punishment Lord's original name was Tong Tian. He was born on the Cypress Lotus Star. He spent seventy two years to reach the level of a one star King. After that, he left the Cypress Lotus Star and began to wander the interstellar space …"
"The eighth Gold Punishment Lord's original name was' Hong. 'Place of birth is unknown. Time of cultivation is unknown. He killed the sixteen star Emperor level expert, the King of Massacre,' Flourishing Blood '…"
… …
On each and every plaque was the biography of a Gold Punishment Lord.
There were a lot of plaques hanging in the front hall. With a glance, Qin Yu saw that there were a lot of plaques hanging in the front hall. There were definitely no less than ten thousand plaques hanging there. The plaques hanging in front were the early Gold Punishment Lords. When Qin Yu and Wen Feng walked to the back hall, they saw even more plaques.
"Wen Feng, how many Gold Punishment Lords are there in total?" Qin Yu looked to Wen Feng.
Wen Feng smiled and said. "Could it be that your soul's power is unable to distinguish them?"
Qin Yu shook his head and smiled. "It is not that I am unable to count them. Rather, it is precisely because I am able to count them that I do not dare to believe it. There are a total of seventy thousand plaques here. In other words … from the Ancient Era until now, there have been over seventy thousand Gold Punishment Lords? "
"That's right. The current His Majesty Xing Yuan is indeed over seventy thousand Gold Punishment Lords." Wen Feng nodded.
Qin Yu continued to ask. "However, how long would each Gold Punishment Lord hold the position for?"
Wen Feng smiled and shook his head. "That is very hard to say. Some Gold Punishment Lords held the position when they were only fifteen star Emperors. They might hold the position for several million years or even several tens of millions of years before ascending. Some … for example, the current His Majesty is already an eighteen star Emperor. Even if he were to hold the position of Gold Punishment Lord, he would likely ascend within several tens of thousands of years. It might even be earlier than that. "
Qin Yu nodded his head.
It was very hard to say how long each Gold Punishment Lord had held the position. Some were long, some were even tens of millions of years. Some were short, some were even less than ten thousand years. However, for over seventy thousand Gold Punishment Lords, even if they were to hold the position for an average of a million years, they would still have a history of over seventy billion years.
Furthermore, Qin Yu estimated that … the average time they held the position should be more than a million years.
"Wen Feng, exactly how long is the history of our Dark Star Realm?" Qin Yu asked.
Wen Feng muttered to himself and shook his head. "I'm afraid no one knows. As far as I know, the history of the Dark Star Realm is separated into two stages. The first stage is the period when there were no Inherited Treasures. At that time, the Dark Star Realm was incomparably chaotic. It was only later on when the three Inherited Treasures appeared that the Dark Star Realm entered the stage of peaceful development. "
Qin Yu was astonished.
Heavens, the time that these seventy thousand Gold Punishment Lords represented was only the time after the three Inherited Treasures appeared. As for the chaotic period before, who knew how long it was?
The history of the Dark Star Realm was truly long.
Wen Feng sighed and said. "The people of our Dark Star Realm were warlike. Without sufficient strength, who would submit to them? Later on, the three Inherited Treasures appeared. Only then did all the people of the Dark Star Realm submit to the person who possessed the Inherited Treasures. "
Qin Yu turned his gaze to the back. After passing through the front hall, one would arrive at the rear hall. The rear hall was much larger than the front hall. There were many statues in the rear hall.
"Those are the statues of every generation's Gold Punishment Lord. Do you want to go and pay your respects?" Wen Feng said with a smile.
"Forget about it. They're not real people. What's there to pay respects to?" As Qin Yu said that, he turned around. "Wen Feng, let's go to the Inherited Palace. Oh, that's right, what is that Inherited Palace? "
As Wen Feng and Qin Yu walked, they chatted with one another.
"The Inherited Palace is the place where every generation's Gold Punishment Lord fuses with their Inherited Treasures. For example, after the previous Gold Punishment Lord ascended to the Divine Realm, the Inherited Treasure had been placed in the Inherited Palace the entire time. It was only later when His Majesty Xing Yuan appeared that the Inherited Treasure fused with it. The person in charge of the Inherited Palace is the Guard Elder. "Wen Feng explained in detail.
After Wen Feng finished explaining, the two of them arrived outside the Inherited Palace.
The Inherited Palace was very simple and unadorned. It was completely black in color and emitted an ancient aura. Merely by standing outside the Inherited Palace, one would feel a sense of oppression.
"Liu Xing, Wen Feng, come in." A voice sounded from within the Inherited Palace.
Qin Yu looked over. A dark and thin old man was sitting cross-legged at the corner of the Inherited Palace. It was the Guard Elder. At this moment, the Guard Elder had already stood up and walked toward the two of them.
"What are the drawings on the walls?" Qin Yu looked at the walls of the Inherited Palace with a puzzled expression.
There were carvings and pictures on the walls. Qin Yu swept his gaze over the walls and discovered that there were over ten thousand carvings and pictures on the walls of the Inherited Palace.
"On the walls are scenes of battles between the people of our Dark Star Realm before we obtained our Inherited Treasures." The Guard Elder's voice sounded.
Qin Yu suddenly looked at one of the pictures.
That picture was actually an interstellar map of the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm. Merely, this interstellar map had a lot of markings on it. It was as if the entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was occupied by the people of the Dark Star Realm.
"What's going on here? What about the people of the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realms? "Qin Yu asked curiously.
The Guard Elder sighed. "After countless years, even the majority of the disciples of our Dark Star Realm have forgotten …. This Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was originally called the Dark Star Realm."
Hearing this, Qin Yu was shocked.
What? The entire Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm was originally called the Dark Star Realm?
The Guard Elder narrowed his eyes and slowly said. "The people of our Dark Star Realm are the original inhabitants of this Cosmic Space. As for the Immortals. The people of the Devil and Demon Realms are merely people that ascended from the lower realms …. Merely, there are too many of them that ascended. Furthermore, their reproductive abilities are too strong, far surpassing our Dark Star Realm's people. "
