Within the secret realm of the True King, there is an exclusive space.
This space is surrounded by dragon shapes on the outside and has seven dragon patterns in total. It is the residence of the Seventh Prince Ji Chen.
This is the exclusive space for the royal family. In a magnificent palace, Shen Zhui appears out of thin air.
"Marquis Champion, His Highness is already waiting inside." A true god guard came up to greet him.
"Lead the way." Shen Zhui nodded lightly.
"Please." The guard welcomed Shen Zhui inside.
There are endless splendid palaces. As a prince, it is customary to build a palace.
Speaking of which, this was the first time Shen Zhui came to the Seventh Prince's exclusive space. In the past, when they met, they always chose some common occasions.
Along the way, the guards were all at the peak of the Venerable, with every post at ten steps and a sentry at five steps. The true god could be seen everywhere, and in the dark, there was even an aura that surprised Shen Zhui. He didn't know if it was due to the formation or because of the formation. The strong reveal it unintentionally.
"This is the magnificence of a prince of a country. As a candidate for crown prince, countless people want to have the power of following the dragon."
"Help the Seventh Prince ascend to the throne and gain the blessing of the great Zhou Dynasty's luck, and then he can rise to great heights. Even those who originally lacked potential will be transformed by luck and break through the shackles of their original talents." Shen Zhui was secretly shocked.
As his cultivation level increased and the more he came into contact, he gained a deeper understanding of destiny and the power system of the imperial court.
Why is the Seventh Prince Ji Chen just a peak venerable person with such power?
Why can he command the invincible true god and even ask the god king to dispatch?
Because he is Ji Chen, the legal heir to the great unification of the country!
If he becomes the Human Emperor, his cultivation will naturally skyrocket, and he can command the gods. A person who could only reach the level of a true god in his entire life may be able to aspire to be the God King. This is power!
"The Champion is here." The guard led Shen Zhui to a study room, "Your Highness is waiting inside, the Champion can just go in."
"I know." Shen Zhui adjusted his clothes, then stepped up the steps and entered the study.
As soon as he entered the door, Shen Zhui saw the Seventh Prince Ji Chen sitting on the throne. He was wearing casual clothes. He was no longer as royal as last time, but a little more kind.
And below him, there are three figures sitting.
When Shen Zhui walked in, the eyes of these three people all fell on Shen Zhui.
An invisible pressure shrouded Shen Zhui, which was purely due to the scrutiny of a strong man who had experienced the battlefield for many years. If he was timid, he might not even be able to say anything.
But Shen Zhui looked as usual, without squinting, he cupped his hands towards Ji Chen and said, "Shen Zhui, see you, Your Highness."
"Haha, brother Shen, you don't have to be polite." Ji Chen stood up, walked around the table, lifted up his clothes, walked down the steps quickly, and helped Shen Zhui up. "Come, take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Shen Zhui cupped his hands and sat on the seat on the right.
After Shen Zhui took his seat, Ji Chen also returned to his seat and then said: "Shen Zhui, let me introduce you."
Ji Chen pointed at the first person. He was a bald man with a tall build and a very kind face. Although he was wearing armor, he looked more like a merchant than a general. Only the occasional glint in his eyes made people feel this. The true strength of a strong man is not simple.
"This is the commander of the Tianquan Army, the invincible true god 'King Aiye'."
"I've seen King Ai Ye." Shen Zhui was slightly shocked. There was actually an invincible true god sitting here, but on the surface he remained calm and held his hand towards him.
"You are so polite, Lord Champion. I have long heard His Highness mention that Lord Champion is extremely talented. Now that I see him, he is indeed extraordinary." King Aiye smiled, and he was also very considerate.
Ji Chen then introduced the second person: "This is the commander-in-chief of the Tianshu Army, King Chang Guang, the invincible true god."
Another invincible true god!
Shen Zhui's eyelids twitched, but he still raised his hands very politely and said: "I have met King Chang Guang."
King Chang Guang has a thin figure and slightly white temples. He looks like an old man. However, Shen Zhui knows that a person who looks like this usually wants to lower the opponent's defense and should be a person who is good at calculation.
King Chang Guang also smiled and nodded: "I congratulate the champion Hou for winning four out of four games and entering the True King's Secret Realm. In a few years, I'm afraid I won't be able to match him."
"How dare you rule the roost in front of the commander-in-chief? I'm just lucky." Shen Zhuilian said.
Immediately after introducing the third person, Ji Chen's voice paused slightly: "This is the deputy commander-in-chief of Xiaoyao Legion, Nangong Zhiyuan, the invincible true god."
Shen Zhui's gaze shifted and met Nangong Zhiyuan's gaze.
There wasn't much expression on that dull face, and he just nodded slightly: "The Champion."
Apart from that, he seemed unwilling to say even a single word.
Shen Zhui felt strange in his heart.
First of all, the first two people called him "king", but Ji Chen called this one by his first name.
Secondly, Nangong Zhiyuan's attitude cannot be called enthusiastic. It can even be called cold. Compared with the previous two, it is a bit strange.
However, Shen Zhui didn't think much about it and still returned the greeting with his hands raised: "I have met the True God Nangong."
In fact, as long as you reach the top true god, you can be called a certain king, because the standard of combat power for kingship is the top true god.
It's just that the king doesn't give it lightly, and many people just have the strength but don't have the opportunity.
Of course, some people don't want to be bound by the prince and like freedom.
After the introduction, Ji Chen chatted with the three true gods and ignored Shen Zhui.
Shen Zhui didn't speak, but just listened. He knew that Ji Chen asked him to come here just to listen.
Sometimes, listening may give you greater information.
About half an hour later, Shen Zhui learned a lot of information that he had never come across before from Ji Chen's chat with the three invincible true gods.
King Chang Guang, King Ai Ye, and Nangong Zhiyuan are all commanders of the legions on the Tianwai battlefield, with high positions of authority.
Among them, Tianquan and Tianshu are the Great Zhou legions established very early, and they are all composed of the lowest level of venerables!
As famous as the two ancient legions, there are Tianxuan, Tianji, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang!
These seven legions are collectively called the Beidou Legion and are led by the Beidou God King!
As for the Xiaoyao Legion, although it was a later legion, its status is not low either. It was established by King Xiaoyao.
The difference from the Big Dipper Legion is that it only recruits strong human beings from all over the world.
The Beidou Legion is a mixture of foreign and human races.
In addition, God King Xiaoyao is the martial arts teacher of the seventh prince Ji Chen!
After hearing this, Shen Zhui seemed to get a hint of the meaning.
But he didn't say much.
It wasn't until the three invincible true gods left, and only Ji Chen and Shen Zhui were left in the study, that the Seventh Prince asked: "Shen Zhui, do you know why I asked you to come here."
"Your Highness wants me to join these three legions?" Shen pursued.
Ji Chen nodded and said: "You have now entered the True King's Secret Realm, become a core member, and have obtained the right to permanently reside in the Secret Realm."
"According to the usual practice, after the seven-year period has expired, you will be released and sealed."
"But, I don't want you to wait so long."
Shen Zhui nodded, thinking carefully, it had been ten years since he entered the secret realm, but only one year had passed in the capital.
He rose quickly, which gave Ji Chen new ideas.
All along, the Seventh Prince Ji Chen only gave and did not ask for anything in return.
But this time, Shen Zhui also understood that it was time for him to contribute.
The outer territory is the focus of Ji Dan’s management!
"I have gained a reputation as a virtuous person among the civil servants in the world, and my fourth brother has gained the support of all major legions and holds military power."
"I use martial arts to control others. This is my father's way of governing."
"In normal times, I would not and would not dare to have any other thoughts, but you also know what happened a few years ago. If I don't change, my fourth brother will grow bigger without limit!" Ji Chen stared at Shen closely. Chai: "I cannot sit still and wait for death!"
Shen Zhui was shocked. Of course he knew that Ji Chen was alluding to the unusual movement in the Virtual God Realm.
So, is there really a big problem in the Virtual God Realm?
In other words, the Human Emperor who created the Virtual God Realm...had a problem!
This guess was too shocking, but Shen Zhui suppressed the surprise in his heart.
"What do you want me to do, Your Highness?"
"If you want to control the legions on the outer battlefield, within two hundred years, you must control at least the Xiaoyao legion, plus one of the Beidou legions!"
"Even, replace the Beidou God King with the Xiaoyao God King!" Ji Chen's words were astonishing.
"Replace the God King!" Shen Zhui's heart trembled. Even though he was determined, he couldn't help but be frightened by Ji Chen's ambition.
But, this is exactly a good thing.
As early as the very beginning, Ji Chen made no secret of his thoughts about seizing the throne and told Shen Zhui frankly.
Everyone has ambitions, let alone a prince?
"Two hundred years... this happens to be the period when the crown prince's position is established." Shen Zhui suddenly realized that this was probably the peak period when the conflict between the two princes broke out.
The lifespan of the mortal world is limited, and some people have painstakingly planned their plans for decades. However, it is normal for princes from the divine dynasty like Ji Chen and Ji Dan to plan hundreds of years in advance.
Shen Zhui took a deep breath and repeated what he said before: "What do you want me to do, Your Highness?"
What was mentioned before was only a long-term mission, but now he is still just a venerable person. It seems that Ji Chen would not just give him such an ambitious goal, but also have other missions.
When Ji Chen heard this, he couldn't help but smile. He didn't make any excuses. He didn't talk about the difficulties beforehand and only asked how to do it. This attitude satisfied him very much.
As long as you have this attitude, the next step is how to do things, and the solemn atmosphere will relax a lot.
"You have now entered the True King's Secret Realm, with optional tasks and more permissions." Ji Chen said slowly.
"First of all, of course, the main thing is to improve your strength. I will not delay your promotion. On the contrary, the higher your level of strength, the more confident we will be in our great cause."
"But from now until sixty years later, the missions you choose to take should be placed in the outer territory of the sky, Pingdingtian, Zengguangtian, Lieyangtian... wait for thirty-six days."
Ji Chen waved his hand, and a starry sky image suddenly appeared above the table.
Silk threads connected the stars. Ji Chen's eyes had a hint of longing: "These thirty-six days are the territory that my Great Zhou has spread out. It is twice as big as the Eastern Continent and is known as the tenth continent outside the sky. !”
"The tenth continent outside the world?!" Shen Zhui was slightly shocked.
Unexpectedly, the Great Zhou Dynasty actually opened up such a broad territory. Just from the name of "Tenth Continent Beyond the World", its importance is enough to see!
In the history of the land of Kyushu, there have been many people who occupied a continent and proclaimed themselves emperors. Such a large territory, with its nourishing luck, may be able to support the birth of a great emperor!
"In the past sixty years, you have to become familiar with the territory of this tenth continent. It is best to choose a place where you fight against the Holy Land of Heaven. That will help you understand the customs, power distribution, and enemy locations of each place more quickly."
"It's best to make a great name!"
Ji Chen withdrew his gaze with some reluctance, stared at Shen Zhui and said with a smile, "Sixty years later, according to Father's original will, that is when you and Zixuan will get married."
"I will lobby the various ministries to assign your fiefdom to the tenth continent."
"As for whether it is a feudal land or a kingdom..." Ji Chen grinned and said, "Brother-in-law, it all depends on you."
…………
After returning from Ji Chen's mansion, Shen Zhui's heart could not be calm for a long time.
The seventh prince, Ji Chen, drew a big cake for him, and it was very close to him. I have to say, it was very heartwarming.
But the difficulty can be imagined.
The tenth continent outside the world has been run by the fourth prince Ji Dan for a long time and is filled with a large number of strong aliens. Now he is labeled as a member of the seventh prince's lineage. It is very difficult for him to make a difference.
"The Seventh Prince asked me to choose Xiaoyaotian, where the Xiaoyao Legion is located, because the human race is the majority here and the mutual hatred is not that serious."
"However, I'm afraid this has another meaning." Shen Zhui said secretly.
That is, in the pure human race, loyalty is guaranteed!
As for the Beidou Legion, aliens and humans are mixed together. Even under the deliberate guidance of the fourth prince, in order to win people's hearts, in some continents, the status and convenience of the strong aliens are higher than those of the humans!
This conflicts with Ji Chen's philosophy and also conflicts with his Shen Zhui's philosophy.
As the saying goes, those who are not of my race must have different minds!
Do alien races receive more preferential treatment than humans?
Shen Zhui couldn't understand.
Therefore, he can never stand on Ji Dan's side.
Even if Ji Dan came out first to greet and make friends with him when he first entered the capital, the subsequent results might not be satisfactory.
"Let's not think about it so much for now. Facing the mighty trend, if you don't have enough strength, you can only be coerced by the situation."
"Only with strong strength can we not be influenced by the situation and even reverse the situation!"
Shen Zhui immediately left Longteng Palace with a whoosh.
Outside the door, the chariot carried by the four king beasts had been waiting for a long time. This was the chariot that came to welcome him to the secret realm of the True King.
"Master Hou." Noah watched Shen Zhui come out with some emotion, "Congratulations to Master Hou for being promoted to a member of the True King Secret Realm. Noah sincerely wishes Master Hou a long life and immortality!"
"Noah." Shen Zhui also looked at the leader of his escort team. Although they didn't get along with each other for a long time, Shen Zhui was still reluctant to let go of the people and things around him. "I hope you can also break through the shackles of life. Take good care of yourself." Alive."
After a pause, Shen added: "If you encounter anything that cannot be solved in the future, you can come to the True King's Secret Realm to find me."
"Master Marquis..." Noah was a little touched. This was a serious promise.
Shen Zhui is now a member of the True King Secret Realm, and his combat prowess is so incredible that he is as famous as Tuo Sen. Even the ultimate true god must give Shen Zhui three points of honor.
A guard leader like them is not just a guard all the time. He may also go out on adventures in the future and encounter any difficulties... With the connections of such a strong person, I am afraid that many things can be solved.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis." Noah bowed again.
"Let's go." Shen Zhui smiled and waved, and immediately got on the king beast's chariot.
"Farewell, Lord Marquis!" Noah and others all shouted in unison, watching Shen Zhui's chariot leave.
…………
The secret realm of the true king, combined with the dojo.
In a spacious box in a tavern, three true gods were leaning casually on soft mattresses.
"Crazy Zhao, you haven't made an appointment with us for a long time." A burly man with golden lightning between his eyebrows held a huge crystal cup in his hand. He was twenty meters tall. The crystal cup in his hand was too big for others. It's already considered a 'bucket'.
"Gulong~" After finishing the wine in the glass, the burly true god with golden lightning between his eyebrows and wearing silver-white armor slammed the wine glass on the table with a clang, "The last time Lant and I saw you, we were two. A hundred years ago."
"Djinn, you remembered wrongly, it was two hundred and nineteen and seven months." A blond man sitting on the other side said calmly.
Lant's face was extremely handsome, but there was a black hole in his right eye. The edge of the hole was rotten like a new wound. This hideous and terrifying scar on his right eye completely destroyed the handsomeness of his entire face.
Compared with the giant 'djinn', his figure is extremely weak, but his momentum is faintly stronger than him.
"Lant, you have to compete with me!" The giant spirit growled. "I said two hundred years ago, what's the difference?"
"You're not rigorous enough." Lant glanced at the other party lightly.
"You are an ugly monster!" the giant spirit mocked.
Boom~ A violent aura suddenly arose in the box.
However, before the storm fully unfolded, a voice sounded.
"Okay." Zhao Xing leaned forward, "I am contacting you this time for an important matter."
The storm was extinguished, and both of them looked at Zhao Xing.
"Borrow your hundred years of time!" Zhao Xing said solemnly.
"Borrowing a hundred years?" Both Djinn and Lant were slightly stunned.
"What are you doing?" Lant asked.
"Guarding the way of a respected person for a hundred years." Zhao Xing said.
"Your Majesty, please ask the Invincible True God to protect the way. How about a hundred years?" The giant spirit said with some doubts. "Crazy Zhao, who is so important? I never heard that you gave birth to a son."
"Is it a big deal?" Lant also asked.
"Don't ask any more questions about this," Zhao Xing said.
"Then who of us are you going to invite..." The giant spirit drank the wine and put the crystal wine barrel halfway, but suddenly paused.
"You mean to invite the two of us?!"
"What kind of venerable being, one invincible true god is not enough!"
Zhao Xing shook his head and said: "The way he is going, you alone cannot protect him."
There was silence, and time seemed to have stopped in the box.
"Then can you change someone else?" The giant spirit put the barrel down and glanced at Lant beside him. "I don't want to cooperate with this ugly monster."
"Bastard, you think I want to cooperate with you, an idiot!" Lant finally couldn't help but yelled.
"..." Zhao Xing smiled silently and quietly left the box.
