Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

The large group seemed to be moving slowly, but in reality, their speed was not slow.    

After leaving the capital's northern city, one would have to travel a hundred miles of Luo River to reach the Northern Mang Mountain Range.    

The mountain range stretched for seven to eight hundred miles. The vegetation was pale and the ravines were deep.    

In the North Mang Mountain's Dragon Gate Gorge, a palace took up an open space with a grand atmosphere. There was already a banquet set up within the palace.    

All the guests, under the guidance of the etiquette officer and the court officials, entered the palace for the feast.    

Halfway through the banquet, the Duke of Qin rose from his throne and raised his glass. "This prince's birthday is to thank all of you for coming to congratulate me. This king will remember all of you." Drink this cup to express This King's gratitude! "    

With that, the Duke of Qin raised his goblet and drained it in one gulp.    

All the guests stood and drank together.    

"If it's just a banquet, it would be rather boring. As a result, this king's birthday is going to be Northern Mang Mountain with everyone. Any guest under the level of Deity Entering Stage can participate in the examination. Three days later, inspect the harvest, and all those who have made it into the top ten will be rewarded. Let this king witness the glory of all of you! "    

Finished speaking, the Head Supervisor of the Qin Dynasty, Nan Huaichen, gestured.    

Nan Huaichen got up and said, "This time, the royal guards will patrol the area and bring back the bodies of the hunted. Warriors that participated in the hunt only needed to take out the Demon Crystal s from their prey as proof. After the end of the hunt, based on the rank of the Demon Crystal, the first prize would be one of the royal Supernatural Martial Arts, one of the Darkgold Mystic Armor, one of the Heavenly Heart Soul-Shaping Pellet, five bottles of the Mysterious Soul-Nourishing Pill, one of the Tai Wei Divine Punisher Sword, one hundred gold taels of the Ancient Glorious Divine Gold, and one hundred thousand purple crystals. The second result, Supernatural Martial Arts s, one Heavenly Heart Soul-Sculpting Pill, one Dark Gold Mysterious Armor, three bottles of Profound Spirit Pill, and fifty thousand purple crystals. Ranked third: Black Gold Armored One, Martial Arts Power One, Profound Spirit Rejuvenation Pill Three bottles, and Purple Crystal Thirty Thousand Yuan. From the fourth to the tenth, each piece of the Dark Gold Mysterious Armor, a bottle of the Mysterious Soul-Nourishing Pill, and from thirty to ten thousand purple crystals, will be available! "    

Pausing for a moment, Nan Huichen continued, "The prey obtained from this hunt belongs to the hunters. During the hunt, harmony was the most important thing, and participants should not fight over it. In addition, the hunters who participate in the hunt will send out fireworks. If there is a danger then the imperial guards will go to rescue them. Now, everyone can go hunting! "    

Nan Huichen's words had still attracted the excitement of many of the guests.    

This reward wasn't too bad. It wasn't particularly generous, but it wasn't cheap either. The most important thing was that all the rewards from the hunt would go to the hunters. This was a very attractive spirit beast level Demonic Beast, with treasures all over its body, a spirit beast corpse was worth tens of thousands of purple crystals.    

Immediately, the guests all stood up and walked out.    

Chen Yu didn't immediately get up. Instead, he thought about the rules that Nan Huichen had mentioned. It was obvious that it was difficult to get the top ten in the hunt.    

According to the Demon Crystal s of the killed spirit beasts, the final result was obviously to allow them to find help. This would be very beneficial to the powerful guests.    

In other words, as long as someone was willing to help, the final result could be compiled into a certain person's name. To those martial artists that didn't have a strong background and were alone amongst the guests, there was no possibility of competing for the top 10.    

Of course, this was very normal. This kind of hunting was just a show that made the guests happy, not a selection.    

There were also many guests who did not participate in the hunt and continued to sit peacefully without moving.    

"Stay here!" Chen Yu said to Gongsun Zhiwei and Ling Yuxuan, "I will do my best to obtain a place in the top ten!"    

"It's too difficult for you to be alone!" Ling Yuxuan shook his head and said, "Why don't we all join? This way we can reap more rewards!"    

Chen Yu said, "No need!"    

With that, Chen Yu got up and walked outside.    

When Chen Yu walked out of the palace, Gongsun Zhiwei also stood up and walked out with big steps.    

Ling Yuxuan revealed a look of helplessness as he stood up to follow. Qin Jiming also followed with a look of helplessness.    

Walking out of the palace, Chen Yu found a booklet that recorded the names and ranks of the various Demonic Beast that had been thrown into Northern Mang Mountain, as well as their characteristics and weaknesses.    

Flipping the first page, Chen Yu saw a strange beast with black scales covering its body, sharp claws, and a single horn on its head.    

The single-horned crow beast, a sixth grade spirit beast, and a prehistoric beast's bloodline. Its claws were as sharp as a divine weapon, and its defensive power was unfathomable. It didn't have any obvious weaknesses. Being able to control the thunder spirit, one could not fight alone with Profound Dark Stage if they encountered one, and had to be extremely careful if they met one.    

This Du Jue Wu Beast was similar to the Black Scale Fox that Chen Yu met in Divine Meteorite Mountain Range, but its level was much higher.    

In theory, the strength of a sixth stage Spirit Beast should be equivalent to that of a practitioner at the early stage of the Mixed Origin Stage. Of course, that was only in theory, but even so, it was definitely not something a Profound Dark Stage practitioner could kill alone.    

It had to be known that in the Black Dragon Pool of Mingyue County, Profound Python were only Rank Four spirit beasts, and it took a full month for the experts in the Huangfu Family to surround and kill them. And this single-horned beast was far more powerful than the Profound Python.    

The fact that Qin Country was able to capture such a spirit beast and use it as a hunting prey showed how powerful the nation of Qin Country was.    

On the second page, there was a drawing of a White Ape.    

The Heavenly White Ape, Rank 6 Spirit Beast, descendant of the prehistoric Vicious Beast, possessed immense strength and was able to control the Gengjin Goblin Qi. Its running speed was extremely fast, and it did not have any obvious weakness.    

On the third page was a completely red Giant Wolf.    

Red haired Wolf King, a Rank 6 Spirit Beast with a primordial bloodline. Its entire body was like metal and contained a scorching sun and demonic energy. It was extremely violent. One had to be extremely careful when encountering someone!    

Chen Yu was amazed. Three Rank 6 Spirit Beasts were enough to make a warrior of the Hunting Party drink a pot of water. If they wanted to kill a Spirit Beast of this level, then the Hunter must work together to do it.    

"Boss!" While he was looking through the Demonic Beast picture book, a voice came out.    

Chen Yu turned around and saw Fatty Leng.    

"Boss, I'll follow you!" The fat guy had a straight face, with two Ninth Layer of the Profound Dark Stage warriors following behind him.    

"Don't!" Chen Yu waved his hand and said, "What can you gain from following me? You have two experts to help you, so your harvest will not be small! "    

"Not enough!" But the fatty said: "How many people from our Leng Family will be participating in the hunt? Compared to the Shangguan Family on Lo Family? In any case, it's impossible for me to get a placing, so I might as well go with boss! "    

When Chen Yu heard this, he smiled. This fatty could see it clearly. After thinking for a while, he said in a low voice, "Third Prince might cause trouble for me. You will be implicated along with me!"    

Fatty Leng said, "Afraid of f * * king? Could it be that Ying Pang still dares to touch this fatty? Furthermore, he will only recruit a few more Ninth Layer of the Profound Dark Stage warriors by his side at most. What is there to worry about? "    

Chen Yu did not think that it would be that simple, but Fatty was right. Even if Third Prince and Wu Steel were given a hundred guts, he would not dare to touch Fatty. Fatty was the only son of the Leng Family Patriarch, so he did not need to worry about Fatty's safety.    

"Alright then!" Chen Yu nodded and said, "Let's take a look first!"    

"Alright!" Fatty said excitedly, "With boss's protection, this Loser Hunt will be more fun!"    

Obviously, Fatty had a blind admiration for Chen Yu, which made Chen Yu speechless.    

Outside the palace, many of the guests had already moved out, heading towards the depths of Northern Mang Mountain.    

"Meng Yang, you really didn't disappoint this prince!" At this moment, an eerie voice sounded.    

Turning his head, it was Third Prince. Surrounded by seven or eight martial artists, the majority of them were at the peak of the Profound Dark Stage.    

Many of the warriors surrounding him were Patriarchs or Great Elders of the first level Martial Tao Aristocratic Family. During the birthday feast, Third Prince became Third Prince's hanger-on.    

He had to admit that Third Prince was quite capable in recruiting people.    

"Is that so? I thought that Third Prince would be disappointed by my performance in the Martial Arts Competition in front of the palace! " Chen Yu laughed.    

Third Prince said, "On the contrary, this prince is looking forward to it more and more. If you don't participate in the hunt, you will let me down!"    

Saying that, a trace of cold killing intent flashed across Third Prince's eyes.    

Chen Yu smiled and said, "I'm afraid that His Highness Third Prince will eventually be disappointed!"    

"Disappointed about what?" At this time, a clear and bright voice sounded out. A middle-aged man wearing a python robe with a jade belt at his waist strode over. Behind him were a dozen or so powerful martial artists.    

"His Royal Highness the first prince!"    

"Greetings to His Royal Highness, the first prince!"    

"…"    

Everyone bowed and greeted one after another.    

Chen Yu sized up the first prince Ying Sheng, only to see that the first prince had a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a calm demeanor. And his strength was the same as Third Prince's, the peak of the Profound Dark Stage.    

"His Royal Highness the first prince!" Chen Yu greeted.    

"Chairman Meng, I've heard a lot about you!" First Prince Ying Sheng smiled as he stretched out his hand and said, "I have always wanted to meet Chairman Meng. Yesterday, Chairman Meng's performance surprised me. Oh right, I heard that Chairman Meng is from Langya Sword Sect, is your noble sect's sect master Zuo Hsingzhou good? "    

Chen Yu was surprised. He stretched out his hand to shake Ying Sheng's hand and said, "His Royal Highness actually knows our Sect's Leader?"    

"Not only do we know each other, we're also friends!" His Royal Highness the First Prince said: "The Sword Sect is filled with talents. If Chairman Meng goes back, the next Sect Master will definitely be you!"    

Chen Yu smiled and said, "His Royal Highness, the Muse!"    

At the side, Third Prince's expression turned gloomy as he watched Chen Yu and the First Prince happily chatting with each other.    

Releasing his hands, the First Prince asked again: "Is Chairman Meng going to hunt? Why not come with me? "Yes, there's also Leng Dong. Together, we will distribute the prey we obtain according to how much effort we put in!"    

Third Prince's eyes narrowed when he heard this.    

Chen Yu said, "Thank you for the high regard, Your Highness. But it's fine. We might have a chance to cooperate!"    

"Alright then!" The First Prince didn't insist and said, "Then let's go first. "Oh, right. Third brother, I chose to head northwest, so you don't have to choose the same direction as me. Otherwise, you might lose to me when fighting for prey!"    

"Don't worry Big Brother, I'm not interested in stealing Big Brother's prey. "I'm just afraid that big brother will steal my prey!"    

"Ha ha!" The first prince laughed loudly and said, "That will depend on whether third brother's prey is worth it for me to fight over!"    

With that, the first prince left with his men.    

When the first prince left, Third Prince seemed to lose interest and left in big strides, leaving behind a sentence, "Chairman Meng, any prey that this prince has set his eyes on will never escape from my grasp. You just wait and see!"    

The corner of Chen Yu's mouth was lifted into a cold smile as he watched Third Prince and the rest leave.
