There were two men and one woman from the Eight Star Force, Mountain River Palace. All of them were at the peak of the Ninth Level of the Transcendent Realm. As for their strength, it was hard to tell without fighting.
After all, from what Chen Zong had learned, the cultivators in the True Martial Upper Territory had a higher level of attainment in martial arts. They were able to unleash their power through martial arts more thoroughly and with more power.
There was a saying that when comparing the strength of the cultivators of the True Martial Upper Region and the Sky Pillar Upper Region, the cultivators of the True Martial Upper Region would usually be stronger if they cultivated the same cultivation method and cultivation level.
This was because of martial arts!
The function of martial arts was to unleash one's potential and even communicate with the world to draw in the world's Yuan Qi. In turn, the power of the world would be stronger.
The handsome young man who greeted Chen Zong was Xu Zhanlong. The man who ignored Chen Zong was Xu Li. The woman was Ouyang Ting.
"The three of us plan to challenge the True Martial Battle Tablet in the True Martial Giant City," Xu Zhanlong said to Chen Zong with a smile, "Brother Chen Zong, are you going as well?"
Chen Zong nodded.
"May I know which force you are from?" Xu Li's voice was a little sharp.
"I'm not from the True Martial Upper Region," Chen Zong replied. The three of them were surprised.
"Brother Chen, are you from the Sky Pillar Upper Region?" Xu Zhanlong asked.
"That's right," Chen Zong said, not avoiding the topic.
"The Sky Pillar Upper Region and our True Martial Upper Region are separated by the Sky Pillar River. You can travel back and forth by crossing the river. Geniuses from the Sky Pillar Upper Region often come to our True Martial Upper Region to train," Xu Zhanlong said with a smile.
"Hmph, only those from the Sky Pillar Upper Region would take the initiative to train in our True Martial Upper Region. Geniuses from our True Martial Upper Region won't go there unless it's necessary. If they want to go, they'll go to the Eternal Upper Region." No one knew if Xu Li had a problem with the Sky Pillar Upper Region or if he was interested in Chen Zong.
"Senior Brother Xu, everyone knows that the Sky Pillar Upper Region's overall martial arts level is balanced," Ouyang Ting glanced at Chen Zong and said with a faint smile. She didn't look down on him, but she didn't care either.
"The Dao of Cultivation is always about going to the higher Region............................. Brother Chen................. l..............
To put it simply, they were looking down on the Heaven Pillar Upper Province's martial skills and deliberately belittling them. At the same time, they were also belittling the cultivators of the Heaven Pillar Upper Province.
"Junior Brother Xu, nothing is absolute." Before Chen Zong could say anything, Xu Zhanlong interrupted, "The cultivation of the Sky Pillar Upper Region is more balanced, so there won't be any shortcomings. Moreover, there are many geniuses in the Sky Pillar Upper Region who are comparable to our True Martial Upper Region."
. "Chen Zong could feel that Xu Zhanlong didn't look down on him or the Sky Pillar Upper Region. His words were appropriate.
Xu Li's words were full of disdain. Ouyang Ting's attitude was a little frivolous. She didn't look down on Chen Zong, but she didn't care.
Chen Zong didn't get angry because Xu Zhanlong's attitude was good. Of course, he didn't pay attention to Xu Li and Ouyang Ting. Instead, he ignored them and chatted with Xu Zhanlong.
The topic of their conversation was naturally related to the True Martial Battle Tablet.
What Chen Zong learned in the restaurant in River Martial City was, after all, one-sided.
The Zhen Wu Battle Tablet was said to have existed since the ancient times. As for its origin, no one knew for sure.
The True Martial Colossal City was where many people came to watch and challenge the True Martial Battle Tablet. It gradually became a gathering place. As time passed, it evolved into a city and then a colossal city.
The True Martial Colossal City was the most ancient colossal city in the True Martial Upper Region. It was also one of the three most powerful colossal cities in the True Martial Upper Region.
The True Martial Battle Tablet opened once every ten years. Every time it opened, it would attract geniuses from all over the world.
Challenging the True Martial Battle Tablet was challenging oneself and also challenging others.
Who wouldn't be tempted by such a grand occasion and invisible confrontation between geniuses of the same generation as well as geniuses of the previous generation?
One should be hot-blooded at a young age. If one's heart was already past its prime, how could one cultivate? One should just dig a hole and bury oneself in it.
After learning that Chen Zong had just come from the Sky Pillar Upper Region to gain experience, Xu Zhanlong seemed to want Chen Zong to know more about the True Martial Upper Region. He started talking non-stop as soon as the topic was brought up. Chen Zong realized that Xu Zhanlong seemed to be a chatterbox.
However, Chen Zong didn't feel annoyed because the content of Xu Zhanlong's words were quite interesting. Allowing Chen Zong to gain a deeper understanding of the True Martial Upper Region would also be helpful for his training.
The rain stopped for the entire night. The first rays of the morning sun rose from the east, illuminating the world and dispelling the darkness and chill.
"Brother Chen, since you're also going to challenge the True Martial Battle Tablet, why don't you come with us?" Xu Zhanlong invited with a smile.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Xu, but I'm used to being alone." Chen Zong politely refused. After saying that, he cupped his fists at Xu Zhanlong before turning around and walking out of the stone house. He quickly left with a movement technique.
"Ignorant!" Xu Li coldly shouted.
"Maybe he thinks that his strength is outstanding and doesn't want to be with us." Ouyang Ting smiled with a hint of ridicule.
"Outstanding strength?" Xu Li coldly snorted and smiled disdainfully. "When we reach the True Martial Colossal City, I'll fight him with only one hand. Let's see if he dares."
"Senior Brother Xu, maybe he won't be able to reach the True Martial Colossal City." Ouyang Ting smiled.
Xu Zhanlong helplessly shook his head, but he couldn't say anything because he knew Xu Li's temperament. If he ignored him, it would be fine, but if he did, it would only make Xu Li even angrier.
…..
With Xu Zhanlong's explanation, Chen Zong's route became more efficient, but also more dangerous.
During this period, Chen Zong encountered a Monster Beast riot. Fortunately, it was only a small scale one, and they were all General Grade Monster Beasts, equivalent to Transcendent Realm cultivators. They posed no threat to Chen Zong at all and he killed them all.
They also encountered bandits, and although they weren't weak, they were still killed by Chen Zong.
After all, Saint Realm masters generally didn't become bandits, and even if they did, they wouldn't attack Transcendents. Doing so would only lower their status, unless there was a huge benefit.
There were dangers, but Chen Zong managed to overcome them all.
The closer he got to the True Martial Colossal City, the more people Chen Zong encountered. There were men, women, old, and young, all of them either alone or in groups, each of them exuding a strong aura. The purpose of these people was naturally to go to the True Martial Colossal City, either to challenge the True Martial Battle Tablet or to observe it. It could be regarded as a participation in this once-in-a-decade event.
With so many people, it was inevitable that there would be friction and conflict.
About two days before reaching the True Martial Colossal City, Chen Zong passed through a mountain valley and felt an astonishing aura fluctuation. Obviously, someone was fighting.
Chen Zong also took a few glances as he passed by. Both sides of the battle were young men, one using a long sabre and the other a long spear. Sabre Qi filled the air and filled the air with an extremely cold aura. The Sabre Qi was sharp and unparalleled.
On the other hand, the golden long spear was a combination of dexterity and dominance. It was as agile as a snake and as domineering as a python. It pierced through thousands of Sabre Qi and turned into a dazzling golden light, piercing through the air and shooting toward Chen Zong.
Chen Zong stopped and narrowed his eyes slightly. When he fought with those bandits before, although they were easily killed by him, it was because the gap between their levels was too big. Chen Zong also felt that their martial arts attainments were quite extraordinary.
Now, the martial arts attainments displayed by the two sides in front of him were also extraordinary.
On the surface, nothing could be seen. Only those who had reached a high enough realm could understand it.
Sabre Qi and Sabre Qi were everywhere, blocking the surroundings in an ingenious way. They were directly enveloped by the sabre and attacked.
As for the thrust of the spear, it seemed ordinary, but the body of the spear was rotating. It contained several changes and blending of forces and finally gathered at the tip of the spear. It pierced through the layers of Sabre Qi and Sabre Qi with a dexterous and domineering force.
Chen Zong's martial arts attainments were very high, and his realm was also very high. Therefore, he could see the profundity of the two men's moves. There was indeed something unique about them.
The True Martial Upper Province was best at martial arts. It was richer and more brilliant than the Sky Pillar Upper Province. However, it was not outstanding in terms of cultivation techniques.
After watching for a quarter of an hour, Chen Zong withdrew his gaze and continued on his way. From the two men's exchange, Chen Zong had already determined their strength levels.
They were equivalent to Fu Yunxiao's level, but their martial arts were more exquisite than Fu Yunxiao's.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Zong passed through a forest and saw the outline of a wide and tall city wall in front of him. As he got closer, he could feel the ancient aura of vicissitudes. The city wall seemed dim and dull, but at the same time, it was majestic and simple. It was covered with mottled traces of time.
Figures in Dark Iron Battle Armor stood on the tall city wall. Their backs were straight like long spears that pointed to the sky. Their bodies were filled with an astonishing aura that seemed to have merged with the long spears in their hands. It was as if they were going to pierce through the clouds.
On the left and right sides of the huge city gate, there were five Dark Iron Battle Armor Guards with Dark Iron Spears standing guard.
The True Martial Battle Tablet opened once every ten years. Every time it opened, it would attract cultivators from all over. These cultivators had different personalities, so it was inevitable that some unnecessary conflicts would occur, resulting in chaos and casualties.
Therefore, every time the True Martial Battle Tablet opened, the True Martial Battle Guards of the True Martial Colossal City would be dispatched to guard various parts of the city to prevent people from causing trouble.
Every True Martial Battle Guard was very strong. They had reached the level of semi-sage realm. They were at least low-level semi-sage realm. Moreover, they had gone through hundreds of battles. So, their strength was much stronger than ordinary low-level semi-sage realm experts.
In addition, not only were the True Martial Battle Guards outstanding individually, but they also had a tacit understanding of teamwork. The more people there were, the more terrifying their combined strength was.
It was rumored that the Commander of the True Martial Battle Guards was a powerhouse in the Saint Realm, while the City Lord of the True Martial Colossal City was a powerhouse at the peak of the Saint Realm.
Strength was the foundation of prestige. With such great strength, they weren't any weaker than an eight-star force. They could even contend with a nine-star force. Naturally, no one would dare to cause trouble here, especially under the watchful eyes of the True Martial Battle Guards.
