Chapter 418 - Center God Province. Ascender Examination. (2/2)

After entering the palace, the gates shut with a loud bang.

Zhou Xuanji looked over and saw three golden statues standing before the main wall. The entire palace was radiant and luxurious.

A man was standing before the three statues, his back facing Zhou Xuanji.

He had an average height and wore a black robe. At the back of the robe was an embroidery of a hideous and eccentric monster. His long and white hair hung loosely at his back.

Seeing from the back view, Zhou Xuanji could sense an enormous aura.

This must be the most powerful person he had ever encountered in his life.

“People call me Han Xuzi. I’m the 16th Cliff Lord of the Divine Cliff,” the Divine Cliff Lord turned and said. He had a handsome face with a look of a little more than 40 years old. His pupils were golden in color, which were very peculiar.

“I’m grateful for your sect’s hospitality toward me instead of hostility,” Zhou Xuanji nodded and replied.

Along the way, he had thought about many problems.

He decided to stay in the Divine Cliff.

Since the Divine Cliff was willing to protect him, there was no need to take risks outside.

For him, the top priority was to become more powerful.

He must become powerful enough to not fear True Gods before the True Gods found the Northern Wilderness Region.

“Your sect?” Han Xuzi said with a smile, “From today onwards, you will be a Core Disciple of the Divine Cliff and will receive the same treatment as my personal disciples. You don’t have to draw the line so clearly. ”

Zhou Xuanji was a little stunned and immediately cupped his fist to show respect.

Han Xuzi waved his hand and said, “You don’t have to show these empty formalities. You have the talent of a First Class Great Emperor and the potential to surpass me in the future. I hope you can acknowledge the Divine CLiff and become part of it. Of course, if you have other ambitions in the future, don’t forsake the Divine Cliff but continue to protect it.”

Although the Divine Cliff was powerful, they had only one First Class Great Emperor in all its history. That person was its previous Cliff Lord.

Zhou Xuanji said, “I will repay the grace shown to me. This is my principle.”

Han Xuzi looked at him intently before waving his hand to ask Zhou Xuanji to come over.

After that, Han Xuzi began telling Zhou Xuanji the Divine Cliff’s long history.

The Divine Cliff had existed for 500,000 years, which was much longer than the Northern Wilderness humans. They had given birth to countless geniuses, and a few dozen of them were listed on the Great Emperor Stele.

Zhou Xuanji also got to know from Han Xuzi that he was ranked 12th on the Great Emperor Stele.

In the recent 10,000 years, there were no new Great Emperors to be ranked in the top 20 places, which was enough to see how devilish Zhou Xuanji was.

However, Zhou Xuanji was not satisfied with this.

Which meant to say that there were 11 people more talented than him?

Han Xuzi also told him about the situation of the Great Thousand World.

The Great Thousand World, which was also the Upper Realm, was boundlessly vast. Even adding all the mortal realms, they were not as vast as it. Similarly, there were countless beings and races in this world.

The Central God Province, in which the Divine Cliff was located, was at the center of the Great Thousand World. There were more than ten factions that were on par with the Divine Cliff in the Central God Province, while the Heavenly Hall was merely a second-grade faction in this region.

Having heard this, Zhou Xuanji was shocked.

The Upper Realm was more vast and spectacular than he had imagined. There was always something bigger, indeed.

According to Han Xuzi, the other God Provinces outside the Center God Province were also very powerful. However, the relationship between these Provinces was tense and hostile. He advised Zhou Xuanji not to leave the Centre God Province in the future to prevent him from endangering himself.

The Central God Province belonged to the land, while there were other factions in the sky.

There were 33 levels of heaven, and each heaven was equal to a Great Thousand World. The Great Emperor Stele was above the 33 levels of heaven.

Above the 33 levels of heaven were the residences of those powerhouses who were on par with the Heavenly Law.

Han Xuzi only let Zhou Xuanji go after an hour.

Before leaving, he gave Zhou Xuanji a golden token, which had the three statues’ image. At the back of the token, there was an extremely delicate carving of the mountain cliffs.

Han Xuzi gave his last advice, “Stay here for three months. I will send someone to serve you. If you have any doubts, you can ask him for help. Half a year later, there is an Ascender Examination in the Center God Province. At that time, give glory to the Divine Cliff, and if you become the victor, there will be abundant rewards. These rewards will help you to reach 10th Revolution Golden Immortal within ten years. You must not miss that.”

“From today onwards, you will be called Ji Xuan.”
