Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

If the gate behind Chen Yu opened, Chen Yu wouldn't be so surprised, because it was not long since he had entered, and it was not surprising that Mo Shu and Mo Jia had come to the square by the expressway.    

    

However, at this moment, the palace door that was wide open was another door that belonged to another region.    

    

If Chen Yu's estimations weren't wrong, the area over there should be the teleportation circle that connects to the Zhenhai City!    

    

"Someone from the Zhenhai City has actually passed through so quickly!" Chen Yu felt a chill in his heart.    

    

Chen Yu knew about his own affairs. It could be said that the Stellar Sand was the only reason why he was able to reach this place so quickly. Before Mo Shu and Mo Jia, who also benefited from the Stellar Sand, arrived, the people from Zhenhai City had already arrived!    

    

As for Lin Zefong and Yuen Cheng, they were stuck in a quagmire while travelling, and Chen Yu's memory of the difficult situation was still fresh in his mind. From this point of view, the strength of the practitioners in Zhenhai City far exceeded the strength of the practitioners in Donwu City by quite a bit.    

    

Not long after, Chen Yu saw the shadow behind the door move and walked into the palace.    

    

Without the protection of the palace gate, Chen Yu could clearly see the face of this person.    

    

The person was about 25 or 26 years old with slanted brows and starry eyes. He had a handsome face with a trace of a domineering aura. He was slender and wore a uniform. The uniform was embroidered with the sun, moon, and stars, exactly like the one Chen Yu was wearing.    

    

Due to the barrier of the invisible wall, Chen Yu was unable to sense the strength of the person who came. However, judging from his bearing, he was clearly no mediocre person.    

    

Chen Yu reckoned that this person had probably reached the peak of the cultivation restricted by the teleportation formation, which was only the peak of the sixth level of Heavenly Astral Stage. His strength may even surpass Mo Jia's.    

    

As that person walked in, the door behind him quickly and soundlessly closed. The person turned around and took a look, but he was not surprised. However, he still did the same action as Chen Yu and threw a punch towards the door.    

    

The black condensed Astral Qi was like a spear, thrusting straight towards the palace gate.    

    

The door burst open, and Chen Yu was surprised to find that he had heard the man's attack!    

    

Unsurprisingly, the palace door was completely unaffected and not a single trace was left behind.    

    

Then, the man gave up trying, frowning as he looked at his surroundings.    

    

Not long after, the man's gaze swept past Chen Yu. His expression changed slightly, and his sharp gaze fell on Chen Yu's face.    

    

Chen Yu wasn't surprised by this at all. The invisible wall blocked his senses, but it couldn't obstruct his vision. It was just a matter of time before he would be found by this man.    

    

"Who is it?" In the next moment, the man leaped up, as if he had turned into a falcon spreading its wings, and rushed towards Chen Yuqian.    

    

Indeed, this invisible wall had not isolated itself from the sound! After Chen Yu understood this, he stood there without moving and a hint of ridicule flashed across his eyes.    

    

Just as he was about to fall, the man threw out a punch. The black boxing aura was like a boundless night sky, falling towards Chen Yu!    

    

PENG    

    

Accompanied by a muffled sound, the black aura from the fist filled the air with the outline of an invisible wall. The black aura exploded outwards, unable to shake the invisible wall in the slightest.    

    

Chen Yu grinned.    

    

The man's expression suddenly changed. Seeing that the aura he had unleashed along with the fist strike hit the invisible wall, he suddenly twisted his body in midair and pressed his fist down on the wall. He used the force of the punch to dissipate the force and fell awkwardly against the wall.    

    

Chen Yu shrugged and said in a mocking tone, "This Brother Qiao is really interested!"    

    

"You!" The man's expression was filled with anger. He pressed his palm against the invisible wall and stared coldly at Chen Yu.    

    

Chen Yu chuckled.    

    

The man withdrew his anger and shifted his gaze from Chen Yu. He looked at the invisible wall and asked, "What the hell is this?"    

    

Chen Yu was too lazy to answer and looked at the man with interest.    

    

Now, Chen Yu was sure that the strength of the man was stronger than Mo Jia.    

    

In fact, Chen Yu had already speculated that the Zhenhai City's martial arts level was a level higher than the Donwu City's. Otherwise, the Donwu City wouldn't have suffered so much in the previous exploration of the secret realm, to the point where it didn't dare to send geniuses!    

    

Mo Jia's strength could be considered not bad, but his age was still too old. Obviously, he could no longer be called a genius. As for Lin Zefong and Yuen Cheng, the way Chen Yu saw it, the two of them should be side disciples with Lin Family s and side branches. They had some innate talent, but they couldn't be considered to be top geniuses.    

    

On the other hand, Mo Shu, who had the weakest cultivation, was only 21 or 22 years old.    

    

"You are from the Donwu City?" Perhaps having confirmed that he was unable to break through the invisible wall, the man looked coldly at Chen Yu and asked.    

    

Chen Yu came back to his senses, smiled at the man and said: "Brother Qiao, please, Donwu City Chen Yu!"    

    

"Isn't Donwu City the three families of Mo Lin? You're not a member of these three families? " The man was slightly surprised as he said.    

    

Chen Yu smiled and did not answer.    

    

Chen Yu did not have any irreconcilable enmity with Zhenhai City practitioners, so he did not mind speaking a few words with them. If he could exchange some information about this secret realm, it would be a type of harvest.    

    

Although Chen Yu had killed Qiao Zhilin before, Chen Yu wouldn't immediately fight to the death with a Qiao Family Ranker because of this.    

    

"Zhenhai City, Qiao Zhiyan!" When the man saw that Chen Yu did not reply, although he looked displeased, he did not ask any further. Instead, he reported his name and asked, "How long have you been here?"    

    

When Chen Yu heard this, he smiled and said, "I just arrived!"    

    

"Oh!" Qiao Zhiyan nodded and didn't say anything else. He turned around and walked down the tower to observe the environment.    

    

This was a smart person. After Qiao Zhiyan reported his name, Chen Yu understood that the other party had seen through his intention to exchange information and opinions about this place.    

    

Sure enough, after three minutes, Qiao Zhiyan, who had walked in a circle, arrived in front of Chen Yu. He asked through the invisible wall, "What do you think?"    

    

Chen Yu smiled and said, "This tower is not that easy to get into. What do you think, Brother Qiao?"    

    

"Of course!" Qiao Zhilin glanced over to Chen Yu's side. He didn't notice the corpse on the tower and immediately retracted his gaze. He then asked with a serious expression: "Will anyone come in after you?"    

    

Chen Yu nodded.    

    

"On my side, if the people at the back can all cross the road, there are still five people, the weakest is at the fourth level of Heavenly Astral Stage, the strongest is the same as me, the sixth level of Heavenly Astral Stage!" Qiao Zhiyan said.    

    

"I still have four people here, and their cultivation bases are about the same as yours!" Chen Yu gave a simple answer, which could be considered as completing the simplest exchange of information.    

    

With the invisible wall blocking their way, this intelligence report didn't have much meaning to either side. It could only be described as a test.    

    

Chen Yu didn't know how much Qiao Zhiyan knew about this secret realm, so he didn't want to ask. After all, he had to answer every question that was asked, it was a tacit understanding between both sides.    

    

Otherwise, in terms of the hostile positions of the two sides, it would be difficult to continue the exchange of such information.    

    

The strength of his Zhenhai City had increased by quite a bit, perhaps he might even have some special understanding towards this secret realm. This point, was what Chen Yu was concerned about.    

    

"Did you try to go up?" Qiao Zhiyan asked.    

    

Chen Yu shook his head.    

    

"For his Ninth Layer of Qi Condensation to reach such a level, he truly is no ordinary person!" Qiao Zhiyan said lightly, "Any guesses?"    

    

"What about you?" Chen Yu said with a faint smile.    

    

"This must be the core zone of this secret realm. The object on top that is emitting starlight should be a Spiritual Soul!" Qiao Zhiyan showed a hint of hesitation on his face. He pointed to the top of the tower and said: "It's very possible, it's a Star Soul!"    

    

"Star Soul?" Chen Yu looked at the top of the pagoda with a surprised expression.    

    

Although he had Bloodfire Emperor's memories, Chen Yu never expected this point. He only thought that the top of the tower was a precious treasure that could emit starlight, but he never expected that it would be a Star Soul.    

    

Receiving Qiao Zhiyan's reminder, Chen Yu looked at the lump of starlight again and felt a difference. Although he could not clearly see what was inside the lump of starlight, but he could still faintly feel a Qi that belonged solely to the Spiritual Soul.    

    

Star Soul were a type of Spiritual Soul, and amongst many types of Spiritual Soul, their medium level was not low. Even the worst kind could be considered an Earth Stage Star Soul.    

    

To a warrior who was taking a risk in this secret realm, just for the sake of this Star Soul, he could pay any price.    

    

"How did you know?" Chen Yu was naturally aware of the value of Star Soul, even if it was the Profound Heaven Sect in his memories, the warriors who fused with Star Soul were few in number. Even Bloodfire Emperor was unable to obtain a Star Soul when he advanced into the Spirit Accumulation Stage.    

    

He did not expect that there would be a Star Soul here.    

    

However, Chen Yu had yet to lose his mind after knowing about the Star Soul on the top of the tower. He looked at Qiao Zhiyan and asked curiously.    

    

Looking at Chen Yu's still calm face, Qiao Zhiyan's face twitched. He was secretly surprised at Chen Yu's temperament and said: "I'm not unfamiliar with the aura of Spiritual Soul, and also, before entering this place, I have a rough estimate of the level of danger and possible lucky chances this secret realm might have. The probability of the existence of a Spiritual Soul here is very high!"    

    

Pausing for a moment, Qiao Zhiyan continued: "On the journey, the existence of the astral light inside the humanoid aura is the real reason why the humanoid aura is so difficult to deal with. So, it's reasonable to judge that the star light coming from the top of the pagoda is from a Star Soul, isn't it?"    

    

What Qiao Zhiyan said was more detailed. Chen Yu knew that Qiao Zhiyan was showing his worth so that he could exchange information with him further.    

    

Seeing Qiao Zhiyan's look of anticipation, Chen Yu knew it was his turn. He smiled and pointed at the body of the tower in his area. He was pointing at the corpse that was sitting 200 feet away from the White Tower.    

    

Looking over to where Chen Yu was pointing at, Qiao Zhiyan's expression changed and he exclaimed: "Qiao Zhiyu, he actually died here?"    

    

Then, Qiao Zhiyan's gaze fell on the other two corpses. Because he could not see their faces, he did not recognize who the two Qiao Family Warriors were.    

    

"How did they die?" Qiao Zhiyan retracted his gaze after a long while. His expression became calm as he stared at Chen Yu and asked.    

    

Chen Yu shook his head, "It's not like I went to check, but I have no way of knowing how they died. However, there are no injuries on their bodies! "    

    

With that, Chen Yu looked at Qiao Zhiyan and made a gesture of "please".    

    

Qiao Zhiyan said coldly, "You are not going to suffer any loss at all. I guess the expert who arranged this secret realm is looking for the inheritor. At the top of the tower, there might be a cultivation technique that can change your fate! "
