After the selection method was decided, everyone in the hall began to discuss with each other.
"You want to go to the Mountain Sea Palace to obtain the gift bestowed by the Exalted Celestial?" Duanmu Yu lightly smiled as he shook his head. Then, he raised his cup and drank all of the wine in it.
"Brother Duanmu," Qin Yu asked, "do the Celestials often show up in the Mountain Sea Palace?"
Qin Yu didn't know much about the Mountain Sea Palace.
Duanmu Yu smiled, shook his head and said. "No, the Three Great Exalted Celestials are legendary characters. They are extremely difficult to meet. As for the Mountain Sea Palace, it was the only palace that the three Empyreans had made public. Of course, the chances of the three Exalted Celestials appearing in the Mountain Sea Palace are very low. However … once we get there, the three Exalted Celestials will definitely know. "
Qin Yu also understood this point.
The Mountain Sea Palace was equivalent to the residence of the three Celestial Venerables.
Other people had already arrived at the three Empyreans' residences, how could the three Empyreans not know?
"I'm sure the three celestials know everything we do in the Mountain Sea Palace. If we can get a gift from them, then we'll have succeeded." Kuiyin Hou also spoke. Then, he looked at Zhou Xian with a smile. "Brother Zhou, the fight for the first spot is very advantageous to you."
Kuiyin Hou had lived in the Divine World for a very long time. He knew a lot more than Qin Yu. Kuiyin Hou naturally knew of Empyrean Thunder Punishment's identity.
"It's hard to say. Once one becomes an Empyrean, their temperament is not something that we can predict. It is also very difficult to determine whether or not I will be able to obtain a gift," Zhou Xian said modestly.
"Come, let's not talk about that. At any rate, there are a total of three spots. In the future, everyone will just have to work hard to compete for it. Now, let's drink," Kuiyin Hou said with a laugh.
…
In the Floating Cloud Mansion.
The three brothers, Qin Yu, Hou Fei, and Kuroh, were gathered together. After the banquet ended, Qin Yu used his Divine Sense to ask Uncle Lan to send Kuroh back. This allowed Qin Yu and his two brothers to reunite.
"Your rate of cultivation is very fast. I am the slowest one," Kuroh deliberately said with a frown.
At this moment, Qin Yu was a High Level Heavenly Deity. Hou Fei was also a High Level Heavenly Deity. Only Kuroh was a Mid Level Heavenly Deity.
"I know about Xiao Hei's cultivation speed. Xiao Hei, you've stayed in the Wood Mansion for about six thousand years. In the third layer space of the Jiang Lan's Realm, you've only spent six million years. From a Low Level Heavenly Deity to a peak Mid Level Heavenly Deity in six million years, this speed is already very fast. "Qin Yu nodded and said.
"But Faye, your cultivation speed …" Qin Yu looked at Hou Fei.
Kuroh's cultivation method was very unique. He could actually comprehend the laws of time.
Qin Yu's avatar was constantly comprehending the spatial insights left behind by the Godking of Life, so it was normal for his speed to be fast. But what about Hou Fei?
It had only been close to ten thousand years since they parted in Yuchi City. Hou Fei was actually already a High Level Heavenly Deity. His cultivation speed was truly astonishing.
"Haha, speaking of this, I am also a bit confused." Hou Fei rubbed his head. "At the beginning, I was brought away by my Monkey Clan's senior. However, what happened after I arrived at the Asura Sea? In less than a year, that Asura Godking came over and said that he wanted to take me as his disciple. My Monkey Clan's senior was extremely willing to hand me over to the Asura Godking. "
Qin Yu and Kuroh were carefully listening.
As Hou Fei spoke till this point, he blinked his eyes. "Then, then that Asura Godking directly set up a space and accelerated the time within the space by ten thousand times. Ten thousand years inside the space was equivalent to a single year outside. Although I seem to have only cultivated for close to ten thousand years, I have actually cultivated for close to a hundred million years. In these close to a hundred million years, it was the Asura Godking who personally guided me the entire time. "
Qin Yu and Kuroh glanced at each other. They couldn't help but sigh at Hou Fei's good luck.
Qin Yu suddenly grew confused.
"That's not right." Qin Yu frowned and said. "Faye, as far as I know, if one were to set up a space with a difference in time, then that space would be very unstable and easily collapse. It would be very difficult to stabilize that space. The greater the difference in time ratio, the harder it would be to stabilize it. "
Qin Yu looked to Hou Fei. "Earlier, I heard you say that the Asura Godking directly set up a space and did not rely on a Spatial Divine Artifact, right?"
"That's right, he directly set up a space. I'm certain." Hou Fei nodded firmly.
"Maintaining a space with a time ratio of ten thousand times for ten thousand years, this, this is truly unbelievable." Qin Yu was in a bit of disbelief.
Uncle Lan, when he refined the Jiang Lan's Realm, at the very most, he had only increased the time ratio to a thousand times.
"As expected of the number one Godking." Qin Yu sighed in his heart. This Asura Godking was indeed abnormal.
Kuroh suddenly said. "Hey, Monkey? I'm curious, why would that Asura Godking want you to be his disciple for no reason at all? Why would he continue to maintain a space with a time ratio of ten thousand times for ten thousand years? What is he trying to achieve? "
Hearing what Kuroh said, Qin Yu was also confused.
What was this Asura Godking trying to achieve?
"I'm also confused. I've also asked the Asura Godking, that is, my master." Hou Fei seemed to not be used to calling the Asura Godking master.
"Then how did the Asura Godking answer you?" Qin Yu immediately asked.
A trace of confusion appeared in Hou Fei's eyes. "At that time, the Asura Godking did not say much. He merely said … he was entrusted by someone!"
Qin Yu and Kuroh looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with confusion.
Entrusted by someone?
Someone wanted the Asura Godking to help teach Hou Fei?
Who was this person?
In the entire Divine Realm, how many people were qualified to have the Asura Godking help them? Furthermore, the Asura Godking was willing to maintain a space for ten thousand years?
"A person like the Asura Godking should disdain to lie. And who was the person who dragged him along? I reckon that this secret can only be found by Faye himself. "Qin Yu looked at Hou Fei with a smile.
Hou Fei said helplessly, "I also know. The Asura Godking said that when I reach the Godking realm, he will tell me. Sigh, so troublesome. Godking realm, what does he think it is? Is it that easy to reach? "
"Monkey, let's not talk about this anymore. Tomorrow, big brother will be leaving for the Mountain Sea Palace." Kuroh looked at Qin Yu with a smile. "Big brother, only eighteen people are going to the Mountain Sea Palace. We can't accompany you."
Only the eighteen people participating in the groom search were going to the Mountain Sea Palace. No one else was allowed to disturb them.
"Mountain Sea Palace?"
Qin Yu said in a low voice. "This first chosen candidate spot, no matter what, I will do my best to obtain it." In this groom search, Qin Yu was determined to win and not lose.
*****
After passing through the Conveying Array below the Utmost Northern Region's Floating Snow City, Qin Yu and them were directly teleported to the northernmost Conveying Array of the Divine Realm's continent.
A group of people were gathered on the north coast.
Further north was the boundless ocean. Not far away, one could hear the sound of waves lapping against the shore.
The Utmost North Sage Emperor Jiang Fan said to the eighteen competitors in a clear voice. "Everyone, for every round of competition, everyone will be given ten years to prepare. After ten years, I and the other Godkings will be waiting for everyone in the Floating Snow City. If anyone is late, then it would mean that they have forfeited this round of competition. "
There was no Conveying Array from here to the Mountain Sea Palace.
In order to go there, one could only fly.
Merely flying back and forth would take several months. On top of that, trying one's luck in the Mountain Sea Palace would also require a sufficient amount of time. Ten years was not a long period of time.
"Is everyone ready?" The Utmost North Sage Emperor had a smile on his face. "In that case, everyone, we can set off now. Remember this, you must return to the Floating Snow City ten years from today. You can arrive early but you cannot be late! "
"Your Majesty Sage Emperor, farewell."
The group of people all bowed to the Utmost North Sage Emperor. After that, they all stepped onto their weapons and rapidly flew toward the north. As for Qin Yu, he stepped onto the Divine Spear Waning Snow.
The Divine Spear Waning Snow was something that even Godkings would find hard to determine from its appearance how powerful it was.
"Dark and Yellow Energy, I reckon that even Godkings have never seen it before." Qin Yu thought in his heart. If one had never seen the Dark and Yellow Energy before, how would one know the frightening might of the Dark and Yellow Energy after it was infused into a weapon?
Stepping on the Divine Spear Waning Snow, Qin Yu's flying speed was extremely fast.
As for Duanmu Yu, he was the only person who was flying side by side with Qin Yu. The rest of the people were all lagging behind.
Below them was a boundless ocean with surging waves. Qin Yu and Duanmu Yu were chatting and laughing as they rapidly flew toward the Mountain Sea Palace.
In the blink of an eye, nearly two months had passed.
After interacting with each other for nearly two months, the relationship between Qin Yu and Duanmu Yu had improved greatly.
"Brother Qin Yu, you must not have too much hope in this round of competition. That Zhou Xian's superiority is too obvious. The greater your hope, the greater your disappointment, "Duanmu Yu said to Qin Yu with a smile.
Qin Yu kept having the feeling that regardless of what Duanmu Yu said or did, he did not seem to care too much. He did not care about failure. He also did not care about success.
It was as if …
There was nothing that could cause him to be angry or shocked.
"Brother Duanmu, I wish to ask you this. If you were unable to obtain any of the three chosen spots, what would you have done?" Qin Yu looked to Duanmu Yu.
Duanmu Yu smiled indifferently. "Why are you asking this question? If I fail, then I fail. What's so amazing about that? Furthermore, is failure always a failure? To be able to comprehend some experience from failure could also be considered a success. Thus, failure and success are not absolute. "
Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from shaking his head and smiling helplessly.
"Why are you pursuing Li Er?" Qin Yu asked.
Duanmu Yu was silent for a moment. Then, he said. "To seek a breakthrough. I hope that I can reach the Godking level."
Qin Yu felt a burst of depression in his heart.
Sure enough …
Of the participants of the groom search, even this Duanmu Yu that Qin Yu felt to be very good, was only pursuing Li Er for the sake of becoming a Godking.
"Brother Qin Yu, we've arrived at the Mountain Sea Palace," Duanmu Yu suddenly said.
Qin Yu looked ahead. He saw numerous islands gathered together in picturesque disorder. There were a lot of islands surrounding the Mountain Sea Palace. They were known as the 'Thousand Islands.' However, the actual number of islands was over three thousand.
Qin Yu and Duanmu Yu streaked across the sky like two rays of light. They flew directly toward the central island of the three thousand plus islands. The Mountain Sea Palace was located on that island.
