Chapter 314: Saint King’s Junior Brother?
Invincible!
To the point of immortality!
Hearing Sun Haoran’s excessive praise of the Ghost King Sutra, Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help smiling inwardly, that year when he got the Asura Tactics, his Master Ren Wokuang also wrote on the first page of the manualーAsura Tactics, Invincible Throughout!
Through many years of cultivation, Huang Xiaolong understood one thing, the cultivation technique wasn’t the most important aspect, but the person themselves.
“Then, do you know what stage the Ghost King managed to reach in his lifetime?” Huang Xiaolong asked.
Sun Haoran explained, “It was said, that year, Senior Ghost King reached the seventh stage of the Ghost King Sutra. Although it was only the seventh stage, amongst the six kings, Senior Ghost King’s strength was ranked second, even the third-ranked Senior Herculean King was once defeated by the Ghost King. If Senior Ghost King reached the eighth stage, perhaps even Senior Saint King wouldn’t have been his opponent!”
Saint King! The number one master of the ancient era!
Huang Xiaolong was secretly shocked, he didn’t expect this so-called Ghost King Sutra to be so amazing, merely at the seventh stage, the Ghost King secured the second position amongst the six famous kings during that time.
“Have you heard about an Eminent Holiness during that time?” Suddenly a thought struck Huang Xiaolong, he asked Sun Haoran.
“Eminent Holiness!” Sun Haoran had an astonished expression on his face looking at Huang Xiaolong, “I didn’t expect that Brother would know about Eminent Holiness. In fact, this Eminent Holiness was the Saint King’s Junior Brother.”
“Saint King’s Junior Brother?!” It was Huang Xiaolong’s turn to be surprised. The leader of the six kings, Saint King’s Junior Brother! Huang Xiaolong did guess the Eminent Holiness would be a famous master in his own right, but the Eminent Holiness being the Saint King’s Junior Brother seemed beyond his imagination.
Sun Haoran nodded, “That’s right, the Eminent Holiness was indeed the Saint King’s Junior Brother. It was by coincidence that I found this information, flipping through an old ancient record, because Eminent Holiness preferred to stay hidden in the mountains, rarely showing up in public, thus during the ancient time, not many people knew about him.”
Huang Xiaolong nodded, so it was like this.
“Still, as the Junior Brother of the Saint King, his strength should be quite strong as well.” Sun Haoran added.
Both conversed as they flew. However, Sun Haoran knew very little about Eminent Holiness and had no other information to offer to Huang Xiaolong.
Along the way, both of them came across many scenes of sect disciples fighting for treasures, but they neither stop nor interfere in these battles. Inside the Ghost King Palace, killings and slaughters were everywhere, even if they had the heart to care, it was an endless burden.
Huang Xiaolong looked at the corpses littered on the streets along the way, shaking his head; everyone in this world knew that life was more important than anything, yet in this world, how many people could actually really see and understand?
Birds die for food and humans die for wealth.
Sun Haoran and Huang Xiaolong flew for two hours, but despite that their speed, they didn’t even cover a tenth of the vast Ghost King Palace.
At one point, Sun Haoran stopped, taking out a piece of map from his sleeves. Checking the aged yellow map, a finger pointed to a spot on the map, “In front should be the Ghost Temple, one of the places the Ghost King used as a cultivation place. Brother Huang, should we go and take a look there?”
