Chapter 858

“What the Jade Emperor sought is just what we are seeking for too!!” After hearing w.a.n.g Shang's words, Zhou Bao calmed down .

The pract.i.tioners' goal was to achieve higher levels in practice . The ultimate purpose of practicing was to have a free and eternal life .

What was the purpose of practicing the skills in power and killing?

For self-protection .

In fact, practice was a simple thing . To achieve certain results in practice, everyone would make the same choice, even though it included playing dirty tricks .

To sacrifice a fellow Taoist for one's own survival .

This was true in any world .

“Interesting! Why should I be so indignant? I'm not a good guy . How could I ask for justice for those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds? Perhaps when I encounter such things in the future, I would be even more terrible and greedier!”

With the protection from Zhou Bao's Sword Qi, they moved at a much quicker pace than the other pract.i.tioners and soon left them far behind .

“This is the Central Divine Palace . At that time, the ancient Earthly Immortals, influenced by the ancient deities, started building Divine Palaces in their macro worlds . They enjoyed the feeling of being Creation Deities . ” w.a.n.g Shang explained .

For the pract.i.tioners in the Immortal Realm, it was not difficult to discover the ancient relics . In fact, it was rather simple and effortless . Once they found the right direction, the only thing to do was to keep moving straight towards the center of the macro world .

Even though this broken world had been shattered into numerous pieces, it was still an easy task for Zhou Bao and w.a.n.g Shang to find its center .

In fact, they located the center from the outset . With the Sword Qi as the protector, they reached the destination without much effort .

Looking at the desolation and ruined grounds, Zhou Bao frowned . He never thought the Central Divine Palace would look like such a wasteland .

Huge stones more than one thousand feet high were scattered around . Marks left by unknown forces could be seen everywhere on the ground . They were still there after so many years and were clear evidences of the brutal war in those days .

Ancient spirits lingered around those marks; raging storms roamed between layers of spatial faults .

The Divine Palace had long been destroyed . The majesty of the building was conceivable through the broken pieces left behind, but treasures once inside the palace had completely vanished . There was only traces of a battle field, without any valuables left .

Zhou Bao and w.a.n.g Shang's strong Divine Awareness was greatly interfered within this palace . The battle spirit left by the Ancient Mighty Experts and Earthly Immortals was not easy to break .

“It seems to have been ransacked thoroughly, but we'd better search again!”

The two were a little discouraged by the sight . But they had traveled a long distance and didn't want to return empty handed .

“Taoist w.a.n.g, you are very knowledgeable . This Divine Palace looks worthless . But I believe you must know some of its secrets!”

“You really flatter me . I'm not like what you think . Only that some elders in my school have entered this relic and know something about it . This place looks like ruins without any living creatures . But there're some secrets hidden inside . ”

“Sure enough . I think so too . If there're only ruins, how could it attract so many pract.i.tioners? No one is that foolish . Why would they try so hard to get here if there's nothing for them?”

“The entrance to this relic is linked to another macro world . It belonged to Emperor Wanfeng of the Rock Cliff Sect, who was wors.h.i.+pped in the Central Divine Palace . Emperor Wanfeng was not among the most powerful in the Rock Cliff Sect, but he had a Heavenly Fairy Weapon, the Celestial Treasured Wheel . This wheel was said to be built by an ancient Celestial Immortal and contained numerous secrets about s.p.a.ce . The Rock Cliff Sect was destroyed by Celestial Immortals . But at the last moment, some elders of the sect hid their treasures inside the Celestial Treasured Wheel . Those treasures were regarded as the inheritance of this sect . At last, the wheel disappeared in the Central Divine Palace, which is not a secret in the Immortal Realm . For many years, numerous pract.i.tioners have come here in search of the wheel but without any results . However, every time the relic was opened, the wheel would be stimulated and ejected things like magic weapons, elixirs or fragments of s.p.a.ce . What you can collect totally depends on your luck!”

“Is that true? Are you saying the Celestial Treasured Wheel has not ejected anything yet?”

“No . It already did . The things are probably hidden between the spatial faults . We need to search very carefully!” w.a.n.g Shang was a little upset . He had never dreamed of getting any treasures in the Central Divine Palace . He knew he was just an Independent Pract.i.tioner who had inherited something before . People stronger than him were everywhere in the relic . He just came here to take his chance and get some benefits if possible . He never thought he could reach the palace ahead of all the others . There were countless inhibitions and dangers in this broken world . Other pract.i.tioners, even the strongest ones, could only reach here three days later . Only the guy beside him was unstoppable with his Immortal-killing and Immortal-slaying Sword Qis .

Three days . This was the shortest possible time for pract.i.tioners to reach the Central Divine Palace in the past .

“Alas! Had I known about it, I would have paid big money for some inside information about the Central Divine Palace and the Celestial Treasured Wheel!” w.a.n.g Shang smiled bitterly .

“What do you mean?” Zhou Bao was confused .

“I'm not powerful enough . Also I never dreamed I could get here and so quickly at that! The information I have is something that is shared by everyone . As for any secret details about the palace, I only have a general idea!”

“That is to say you don't know everything?” Zhou Bao also looked frustrated . Did he choose the wrong guy? He thought he met one with a clear mind, but he turned out to be only a rookie .

“Hehe . Well, fellow Taoist Bodhi, I'm so sorry . I didn't know you are so powerful!” w.a.n.g Shang was also depressed . As an Independent Pract.i.tioner, he had his own purpose in searching for this relic . The Central Divine Palace was only a dream to him . But now, he was brought to the palace by Zhou Bao only because of what he had said . Now that they were here, they would certainly spend some time searching . G.o.d knew if he had enough time to look for what he originally wanted .

“Forget about it! Since you don't know, let's search high and low!” Zhou Bao soon recovered from his frustration and was clearly aware of the situation . He had the ability to discover the secrets even without any help . Moreover, w.a.n.g Shang was not completely clueless .

Zhou Bao brought out the Sword Qi again and cleared all the obstacles between the Central Divine Palace and themselves . This time, w.a.n.g Shang didn't hesitate at all . He followed Zhou Bao into the ruins of the Divine Palace .

“This is a real Central Divine Palace . Being targeted by so many attacks, it has become totally lifeless . Yet the strong and freaky Dharma ceaselessly absorbs any life stepping on the land!” Zhou Bao said quietly .

“The Dharma is indeed strong . Pract.i.tioners below Human Immortals will be sucked dry immediately . Even Immortals might not survive!”

“Immortals might not survive . Yet you are safe and sound!”

“So are you!”

They looked at each other and smiled .

The ruins did not cover a large area, no more than five thousand square meters . It would not take too much time and effort to scan the entire wasteland even without any divine thoughts .

“There's something!” They both stopped beside a huge broken stone . The stone was broken, but the breakage looked different from the others . The exquisite pattern was spread out in a design that looked like beautiful flowers . Within these flowers, there were some slight spatial fluctuation, which was almost undetectable .

“This is a hidden spatial fault created during the war . But we don't know what kind of unknown s.p.a.ce it is linked to!” After a moment of telepathic connection, w.a.n.g Shang confirmed the fact . He sounded both expectant and disappointed .

After all, during the war that destroyed the Rock Cliff Sect, the Celestial Immortals' attack contained huge spatial forces . It was not surprising that the places being struck still contained some spatial forces . There were many spatial faults within this wasteland .

“This is different from other spatial faults!” Zhou Bao suddenly said, “There's a slight gravity in the spatial fluctuation!” While speaking, he turned his hand over and a blue bead appeared in his palm . Strange things then happened! As soon as the bead showed up, a stream of light flashed over the crack and shone directly on it . Then, the blue bead disappeared .

“This is the place we are looking for!”
