The news of Tombkeeper Village shocked the Eastern State and spread throughout the Nine States.
Ye Futian, the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State, opened the Nether Sword Matrix that had been sealed for many years in the Nether Sword Mound, killed the Chess Saint, and obtained the inheritance of the Sword Saint of the Void.
Since then, Tombkeeper Village had surrendered, and the Village Chief was a saint. He entered the Holy Zhi Palace and was made a holy elder. From then on, the Barren State had a saint.
Ye Futian, the young leader of the Barren State, had left the Barren State for a year and made the people of the Nine States remember his name. He had made a saint appear in the Barren State. It was no wonder that the old Palace Lord had sacrificed himself to protect him and inherit the position of Palace Lord.
There was another piece of news that shook the Nine States. Ye Futian had confronted the Great Zhou Sacred King and killed his subordinates for the sake of two ordinary people in front of him.
For this, the Great Zhou Sacred King would launch a sacred war.
Some people said that after the Great Zhou Sacred King returned, he ordered people to set off for the Summer State, where Emperor Xia's people were.
The real sacred war between the two holy lands needed to be reported to Emperor Xia.
After all, Emperor Xia was the ruler of the Nine States, and all the holy lands of the Nine States were where his orthodoxy was located.
Now that the Barren State had a saint and caused such a stir, it was no longer the Barren State of the past. Even the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty could not directly lead people to destroy the Holy Zhi Palace.
At the same time, the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty began to reorganize the army, and an invisible storm was brewing.
There had not been a sacred war in the Nine States for many years. How tragic would it be this time?
After everyone had left Tombkeeper Village, some tried to enter the Nether Sword Mound, but found that the formation of the Nether Sword Mound had changed. Their lives were in danger, and they were unable to enter. The entire Tombkeeper Village had also migrated away, which seemed to mean that the Nether Sword Mound no longer had any meaning to exist. Under such circumstances, everyone naturally left as well. There was no need to risk their lives.
…
In the Qi State, where Jixia Holy Palace was located, the news had naturally spread as well. The battles of the Nine State Forum had already shocked them to the core. Jixia Holy Palace had produced a once-in-a-century genius, Zhuge Yi, who was born with the Sacred Body of Five Elements.
But even so, Zhuge Yi was second only to two people in the Nine State Forum, and one of them had already been proven to be a Spiritual Body. It was no wonder that he was so monstrous at the age of 15. Ling Ren, on the other hand, was Yu Sheng. He had even defeated a Spiritual Body, so one could imagine how powerful he was.
At this time, in a manor not far from Jixia Holy Palace, a young man in white sat quietly drinking tea. Around him were a few good friends who were also discussing this matter.
"Ye Futian and Yu Sheng of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State are really rare geniuses. At such a young age, their names are known throughout the Nine States. Perhaps when Ye Futian inherited the position of Palace Lord of a holy land, many people were waiting to see him make a fool of himself. I did not expect that in just two years, the Barren State would have absorbed saints and cultivators ranked on the Sage Ranking. If Ye Futian had not shown off too much and offended the Great Zhou Sacred King, the rise of the Barren State would have been unstoppable."
"Indeed, Zhou Ya, known as the heir to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's Sacred King, challenged Ye Futian after the Nine State Forum. Ye Futian claimed that he was the Palace Lord who gave him pointers. How arrogant. However, the outcome of the battle was indeed pointers. Zhou Ya was unable to fight back. If he had not entered the Sage Plane and also participated in the Nine State Forum, I am afraid that it would have been him and Yu Sheng fighting each other. I don't know who is more outstanding between the two."
Many people praised. Now, the reputation of Ye Futian and Yu Sheng had begun to spread throughout the Nine States.
"Brother Bai, I heard that you came from the Barren State to train in the Nine States. Do you know Ye Futian and Yu Sheng?" Someone stared at the white-robed young man and asked. This young man had an extraordinary demeanor. He sat there quietly, exuding a scholarly aura.
"I do." The young man nodded.
"Oh?" Everyone became interested and asked, "What do you think of their talents, Brother Bai?"
"Didn't the Nine State Forum already prove that it is rare to meet in the Nine States?" The young man looked very calm, but there were some ripples in his heart.
In just two short years, he had already reached such a level.
The decision made by the Palace Lord and the Master before they died was indeed correct.
He remembered that not long ago, he was known as the number one genius of the Barren State, the future saint of the Barren State, and the heir to the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace.
"That's true." Everyone laughed. Beside the young man, a beautiful woman leaned forward and poured tea for him. This woman was extremely beautiful, and in this area, she was also an extremely famous beauty. She smiled faintly and said, "You are also extremely talented. In time, the people of the Nine States will also know your name."
"That's right, Brother Bai is the most talented person I have ever seen." The person beside him smiled and said, "What plans do you have in the future, Brother Bai? Will you continue to train in the Nine States?"
The young man shook his head slightly and said, "I plan to enter Jixia Holy Palace to train."
Walking in the Nine States and understanding everything in the world, his state of mind was different from before.
Back then, he was the Heaven's Chosen One, the focus of the eyes of everyone in the Barren State. His every move was magnified. He was trained as a saint, and no mistakes were allowed. He also worked hard to fulfill the hopes of his elders. He wanted to be a good heir of a holy land, to make himself as perfect as possible and be loved by the world.
But as he said, there was no perfect person in this world. Looking at everything in the world from a different perspective, one would find a different scenery, so he went out and experienced the ordinary of the world.
Now, he had understood some things, and he should pursue other things, to train with those who were truly at the top.
"I congratulate Brother Bai in advance." Everyone smiled and cupped their hands. If ordinary people said they wanted to enter Jixia Holy Palace to train, they would probably be ridiculed, but since it was him who said it, there was no problem. With his talent, it would not be difficult to enter Jixia Holy Palace.
"I want to go with you," the beautiful girl beside him said softly. The beautiful girl at the side said softly. Everyone smiled when they saw this scene. They cupped their hands and bid farewell.
The young man naturally sensed the woman's gaze. He gazed into the distance, and his thoughts seemed to have been pulled back to the past. He had once fallen for a woman, but she had a different personality from him. She was a bright and beautiful woman who dared to challenge the rules.
"I once had feelings for a woman. She was engaged to me when she was young, but she ran away, but I didn't care. Later, the elders set the engagement for us, but on the day of the engagement, the man she loved came, and they appeared in front of me hand in hand." The young man recalled the past and smiled.
The woman's eyes froze, and she said, "You still haven't let it go?"
"I've let it go a long time ago, but in my heart, I'm afraid I won't easily have feelings between a man and a woman again," the young man looked at the woman and said.
"It doesn't matter, I can always be with you." The woman smiled gently.
"I will hold you back," the young man said.
"I don't mind." The woman shook her head.
The young man smiled bitterly.
…
Summer State, Xia clan.
The once prosperous Xia clan was known by many as the most powerful force in the Nine States. Its clan stretched across endless areas, like an imperial palace standing in the city of Summer State.
The Xia clan itself was like a city.
No one dared to offend this ancient clan. All the holy lands of the Nine States maintained enough respect for the Xia clan.
Because the Xia clan was surnamed Xia.
However, at this time, in the sky above the vast mansion of the Xia clan, there was a group of figures walking in the air. There was a carriage in the middle, and there were people on the carriage.
A group of figures rose into the air, wanting to stop them, but they saw the person in front of the carriage take out a token. Suddenly, everyone retreated and respectfully stood on both sides to greet them.
The carriage moved all the way, heading towards the heart of the Xia clan.
At this time, in the Xia clan, a group of figures rose into the air, majestically. The person in the lead had a transcendent bearing. He was a Saint, the master of the Xia clan. He stood there quietly with everyone, waiting for the arrival of the carriage.
Soon, the carriage landed in front of them, and everyone's eyes looked at the figure in the carriage. The invigilator had appeared, but they didn't know who it was this time.
Emperor Xia had set up the Nine State Guard in the Summer State to monitor the Nine States.
But even if the commander of the Nine State Guard came, Saint Xia, as the master of the Xia clan, did not need to salute, so he just stood there quietly and watched.
At this time, a figure walked out of the carriage and stepped forward.
It was an extremely handsome young man, who looked to be in his twenties. He was dressed as a man, but his skin was smooth and smooth, and his skin was even better than that of a woman's. He looked even more beautiful than a woman.
If he were to dress as a woman, he would certainly be a beauty.
"A woman dressed as a man." What kind of person was Saint Xia? As a cultivator of the Saint Plane, how could such a disguise be hidden from his eyes?
There didn't seem to be such a person among the invigilators, right?
Who was she?
"I wonder why the invigilator has come?" Saint Xia asked. The woman did not speak, but she took out a token and held it out.
Saint Xia looked at the token, and suddenly his heart trembled violently. His mind worked quickly, and soon, he guessed the identity of the person.
"Kneel and salute," Saint Xia said to the people behind him, and then he also bowed and saluted.
Seeing this scene, the people of the Xia clan were extremely shocked. What was the identity of the person that their master needed to salute?
What exactly did that token mean?
One by one, the figures knelt on one knee and bowed to the figure of the young man.
"No need, get up." The young man said, "The Great Zhou Sacred King sent someone to report that he wants to start a Sacred War. Let the people who experienced it explain in detail what happened between the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the Holy Zhi Palace."
"Yes." Saint Xia nodded and looked back at one person. It was the cultivator of the Xia clan who went to the Nine State Forum and the Nether Sword Mound. He stepped forward and briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter.
After listening, the young man's expression was still calm, without the slightest ripple, but he had already made a decision in his heart.
"Send someone to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State to announce the rules of the Sacred War," the young man ordered the people behind him.
"Yes." Someone nodded, and suddenly a group of cultivators directly rose into the air and left.
The young man returned to the carriage and did not say another word, and the group left in a grandiose manner.
Saint Xia looked at the departing figure, and his heart was slightly shaken. Emperor Xia had actually let her come to the Nine States to train. He did not know what kind of storm would be stirred up!
