1478 Mysterious Faction (1/2)
Chapter 1478 - Mysterious Faction
”You've returned.” Moments after entering the hall, an ethereal voice rang out.
”Mm!” The Divine Emissary grunted.
Bzzzz!
Suddenly, white ripples appeared in front of him, slowly forming a circular passage. The Divine Emissary brought Zhao Feng, God Lord Tyrant Dragon, and God Lord Heavenly Solitude into the palace.
The palace was dimly lit, and there was only a black-robed elder within who seemed rather ordinary.
”Honored Divine Emissary!” God Lord Tyrant Dragon and God Lord Heavenly Solitude respectfully called out.
As it turned out, this black-robed elder was also a Divine Emissary.
But the elder didn't even glance at the pair, seemingly ignoring their existence.
”It seems like Brother Beiming succeeded in capturing the Ninth God Eye!” The black-robed elder smiled.
The person who had captured Zhao Feng was called Beiming Hui. Divine Emissary was only a title.
”A mere First Heaven. With this god taking action, it was only natural that he was captured,” Beiming Hui flatly replied. In reality, however, he was rather unhappy. While capturing Zhao Feng, he had actually lost a powerful subordinate. ”Let me take a look at this Ninth God Eye!” The elder's eyes focused on the dark sphere next to Beiming Hui.
Bzzzz!
With a thought from Beiming Hui, the seal around Zhao Feng gradually dispersed. Zhao Feng appeared in the pitch- black palace.
Although Beiming Hui had just removed the seal, Zhao Feng had no intention of escaping. He was deep in the enemy base. On the way in, he had sensed no less than ten God Lord auras. In addition, this black-robed elder was even more unfathomable to Zhao Feng than Beiming Hui.
In front of these two ”Divine Emissaries,” he did not struggle or resist. He squinted as he tried to remember every possible detail. Since he was inside the tiger's cave, he naturally needed to find out the true face of this mysterious faction.
“Heheh, there's no need to be afraid. You're safe for now.” The elder smiled as he affectionately said.
Zhao Feng was instantly astonished. This was not how one treated a prisoner. It felt to him like this elder was treating him like an acquaintance that he had already met a few times. If he didn't know that this man was after the Ninth God Eye, Zhao Feng might have indeed felt like he was completely safe.
After saying those words, the black-robed elder stared with his deep eyes at Zhao Feng's left eye as if trying to see its secrets.
Zhao Feng was also observing the elder. Through his Dream God Eye's see-through ability, Zhao Feng discovered that there was an extremely terrifying energy hidden within the black-robed elder's body. Moreover, this energy was extremely complex; even when seeing through it, Zhao Feng still couldn't make any sense of it.
The black-robed elder seemed to sense that Zhao Feng had discovered something about him.
”As expected of the Ninth God Eye!” The elder profoundly smiled before turning to leave.
Bzzzz!
Beiming Hui immediately took action, unleashing dark and chaotic energy that sealed Zhao Feng once more.
”Let's wait for now. The other Palace Kings, Divine Emissaries, and even the Protector are coming.” The black-robed elder looked at Beiming Hui and his subordinates.
”Other Divine Emissaries?” Zhao Feng was shocked. From the elder's words just now, there were still more Divine Emissaries besides these two.
One had to realize that Divine Emissaries were top-class Third Heaven God Lords. There were several such individuals here?
Half a day later, a person shrouded in red light arrived in the hall. More and more members gradually began to come in. ”So many experts!” Zhao Feng was stunned.
At this time, fifteen God Lords had arrived at this palace. And besides the black-robed elder, there were four others at Beiming Hui's level!
Almost all of these people had asked Beiming Hui if they could see the Ninth God Eye, but they were all refused. From this, one could see that the black-robed elder had a somewhat special status.
In this period of time, Zhao Feng was able to listen in on the conversations carried out between the experts inside the palace.
He discovered that individuals like God Lord Tyrant Dragon and God Lord Heavenly Solitude were the Palace Kings the black-robed elder had spoken of. These Palace Kings resided in factions known as Defying Palaces. There were nine of these factions, with the Demon-Defying Palace of God Lord Tyrant Dragon being one of them.
Further down were the Heaven Halls, of which there were eighteen. The Heavenly Demon Hall that Zhao Feng had gone to before was one of these.
The more he understood, the more shocked Zhao Feng was. ”Just how big is this faction?”
If his guess was correct, the eighteen Heaven Halls were probably distributed across the eighteen zones of the Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods!
He had never imagined that there would be a faction that had spread across the entire Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods. This was simply too terrifying. The eighteen Heaven Halls were equivalent to eighteen peak four-star factions while the nine Defying Palaces were like nine five-star factions!
Suddenly, all the members in the palace stood up and looked outward.
Swish!
A large and imposing elder suddenly appeared in the palace. He was bowed and hunchbacked, his skin as rough as the bark of a thousand-year tree and covered in strange and simple tattoos. Although it was hard to make them out, one glance was enough to be entranced, and it felt like one could see all kinds of strange and mystical things within them. The elder had deep and boundless eyes, and his white beard extended to the ground.
”Respectfully welcoming the Lord Protector!” All the God Lord experts in the palace bowed.
Zhao Feng could tell that the vast majority of the people in the palace felt sincere respect for this Protector.
”Protector?” Zhao Feng was startled. It was apparent that this Protector had an even higher status than the Divine Emissaries.
