If this was a sect within the Imperial Region, Ming Yu would still believe it to be true. He felt that such a deep and profound foundation within the Imperial Region would greatly broaden his horizons, but the beautiful river mountain that appeared in front of Ming Yu was actually just a royal palace. This made Ming Yu feel that it was useless, but at the same time, the shock in his heart had already reached an unprecedented level.
The spirit energy of the heaven and earth in this place was three to five times denser than any other place in the Imperial Region.
If a person was born in a place like this, because the Elemental Strength of Universe and spirit energy were too abundant, there was no need for them to cultivate. They could just rely on their fur to absorb the spirit energy to nourish their entire body, and at every moment, they would be in a state of cultivation.
Because of this, as long as one had some talent, they would be able to reach the realm of Core Controlling Stage level five and above.
The people who were born here, and what cultivation level did their parents and elders have? So, they were born with extremely high talent.
Talent, in addition to the dense energy of heaven and earth, reaching the pinnacle of Core Controlling Stage before the age of twenty, reaching the peak of the ninth level, was definitely a very normal thing.
Ming Yu was unable to see the stars in this place, but based on the grand and majestic mountain range, it was concluded that the stars here would definitely be bright and resplendent, with even more Power of Star being scattered all over the place, allowing them to be absorbed.
Thus, in this Ji Clan Palace, there was definitely an expert who had reached the Star Swallowing Stage.
And in this kind of place, Star Swallowing Stage cultivation was like fish swimming in water, allowing them to grow faster with the passage of time.
Thinking about this, Ming Yu looked a little dazed.
He himself had embarked on the path of cultivation several years ago. Although he had grown extremely fast along the way, that was only because he had expended an enormous amount of resources within his World of Dynasties, coupled with his unremitting efforts and struggle, as well as some fortuitous encounters, that was the only way for him to reach his current stage.
Only Ming Yu himself knew how many twists and turns his growth had brought him.
So what if he was in the Ji Clan Palace?
The noble descendants of the royal family who grew up here did not need to go through any hardships nor did they need to put in any effort. Just by living here, they would be able to enjoy life every day, and their cultivation would be able to rise without being noticed.
This made Ming Yu sigh.
This was because people's circumstances were truly not the same. Some people were already born to stand at the end of other people's struggle. From the moment they were born, some people were already destined to be superior.
It was precisely the descendant of this Ji Clan, the person who flowed with the royal blood, that kind of person who was born superior!
Otherwise, they wouldn't have stayed here all day for no reason at all, instead of practicing martial arts, they would have gathered servants to serve them.
"I just don't know, just what kind of people are the two young masters of Ji Clan descendants and that princess? What kind of work do we servants have to do after entering the Ji Mansion?"
Ming Yu thought about it in his heart, but just at this moment, the soldier in front of him had already raised his whip, and the eight horses galloped towards Ji Clan's golden door. The door was originally empty and did not have any defenses, but when the horses passed through, a membrane of light shone, and he did not stop the horse, but allowed them to enter.
The carriage had been bestowed by the imperial family, and there were formation patterns within it. Only when the formless light barrier in front of the golden gate sensed this did it relax and enter the carriage.
"Phew …"
As the carriage moved forward, the sound of the wind whistled past the carriage and approached the faces of the fifty martial artists. At this time, every one of them had an extremely excited expression on their face.
Therefore, when they were in the outside world, everyone still did not feel anything that belonged to the Ji Clan Palace, but the moment the carriage entered the door, the fresh air that was assaulting their faces made them feel relaxed and at ease just by inhaling a breath of it.
There were countless strange flowers and herbs here, but they were all growing in an orderly manner on the surrounding mountains. A large amount of vegetation was extremely pleasing to the eyes.
The sky was a blue sky, free clouds, wild cranes, birds chirping, warm winds blowing, and there was barely anyone in sight. It was really like intruding into a paradise, making one want to look forward at the mountain peaks, wondering what exactly was hidden in them.
However, Ming Yu knew that this was only the outskirts of the Ji Clan Palace, and the Ji Clan was still deep inside.
Just like this, an hour later, the front suddenly opened up, and the mountain range spread out to the two sides, forming a tranquil lake. In the center of the lake, there was a thirty meter wide, verdant and neat trees that lined the two sides of the road. The road led straight to the front, and looking into the distance, one could vaguely see a grand building.
"We're almost there, haha!"
At the back of the carriage, Hu Xifeng stretched his neck against the iron railing and looked outside, his eyes shining with excitement.
In their hearts, they felt their heartbeats quicken.
As the horse carriage moved forward, the shadows of the surrounding trees and the lakewater continued to move forward. The building in front of them became more and more distinct.
Only when they got closer did they discover that the building was magnificent, with jade ornaments and purple gems intricately embedded on the bricks and tiles of the pavilion, and under the sunlight, it flickered with a myriad of gorgeous and divine lights. Only at the end of the grand road did it shine with a dazzling light, majestic and heavy, but it also similarly had a stern and dignified noble aura, making others only able to look up at it.
Just like this, while everyone was clucking their tongues and sighing with emotion, the carriage had already stopped in front of the palace gate.
On the signboard on top of the palace gates were several large, scalding words: Ji Clan side hall!
"A palace of this level is only a side palace?" Ming Yu couldn't help muttering to himself.
"Heh."
The soldier in front heard Ming Yu's words and spoke sarcastically: "The Ji Clan Hall is a meeting hall specially set up for the two young masters and the princess, it is your fortune to be able to enter this hall. As for the Ji Clan Hall on a distant mountain, you will not be able to enter for the rest of your lives."
How could these lowly servants even touch such a sacred place like the main hall of the Ji Clan?
Hearing this, Ming Yu frowned as he looked in the direction of the soldiers. Coincidentally, he saw the left rear of the palace, and at the end of the lake, in the distance, there was a continuous mountain range. On top of a mountain peak, there was an extremely small image of a building.
However, Ming Yu didn't stay for long because the five soldiers had already dismounted from their horses and opened the cages. They used ropes to tie up all the handcuffs.
The guards did not stop them as they entered the palace.
On both sides of the red velvet carpet in front of the door, on both sides, there were ten guards holding spears and clad in armor. On top of the red carpet, there were thirty-six steps, and on the steps, there were three black crystal seats. At this moment, there were two people sitting on the seats.
Not only Ming Yu, everyone's attention was instantly attracted by the two people at the top seat.
Rather than saying that they had discovered the two of them, it would be better to say that they were intimidated by their auras.
When they had just entered the palace hall, they had already felt a vast pressure from the stars, so everyone's gazes were all attracted to it!
Ming Yu raised his head and looked at the two of them.
On the left was a short-haired teenager, his eyebrows were sharp, and he was clad in a white suit with a black background. On the left was a short-haired teenager, whose eyebrows were like swords, and he was wearing a white suit with a black background.
The person on the right was also a young man, but from the look in his eyes, it could be seen that he was much older and had much more experience than the former. The young man had long hair, was dressed in an extravagant blue robe, had fair skin, and was also extremely handsome.
With a faint smile, he sat upright on the black crystal chair. He looked more refined, as if he was bathed in spring breeze.
Just from the temperament of these two people, they were different, but their auras were unrelenting. Ming Yu could tell from a preliminary look that these two people, had already reached the realm of the first stage of Star Swallowing Stage!
This shocked Ming Yu.
What was shocked was not only the two of them having a cultivation at the first level of Star Swallowing Stage, but also that the two of them looked to be around sixteen years of age, yet had actually already reached such a level!
He was simply a monster!
Thinking back to when Ming Yu was sixteen years old, he …
He was only a newbie who had just entered the Mortality Transcending Stage and was very confused about the future.
But it was also precisely at this age that there were people of Ji Clan who had already reached such an unimaginable level, and could be considered to be the pinnacle of realms within the World of Dynasties!
However, just like what Ming Yu thought before he entered the palace, there were some people who were born with extreme superiority. When Ming Yu was still a martial artist at the bottom level of World of Dynasties, these people could already dominate World of Dynasties at Ming Yu's age!
No wonder the World of Dynasties was so mediocre in the eyes of the Imperial Region people, and could only become slaves. It was only because the strong preyed on the weak in this world, and the disparity between the two was just too great. If it wasn't for some custom made by the world, then the World of Dynasties would have probably been violated and killed by the Imperial Region people.
However, even if one could preserve World of Dynasties to this day, one could only be considered an ant in the eyes of those with Imperial Region.
"This lowly one pays his respects to the two young masters of Ji Clan. The servants that have been purchased with Ji Clan this time amount to a total of forty-eight people.
The leader of the soldiers half-knelt on the ground, and the other four soldiers followed suit, bowing their heads respectfully with their fists.
Following their kneeling, the forty-eight servants behind them knelt down with a poof. However, they were not on one knee, but on both knees. Their palms were going to touch the ground and their foreheads were going to touch the ground.
That's right, to prostrate oneself on all fours!
On the way here, the soldiers had already emphasized the etiquette that a servant should have. Only when they prostrated themselves in front of the soldiers could they express the humility that a servant should have.
Moreover, this was not the time to play the hero. If he was to stand out in this situation, it was not his personality, and he was aware that in this Ji Clan, any expert that came out could torture him to death tens of thousands of times.
However, Ming Yu was still a bit confused at the moment.
The two young masters at the front were indeed powerful and possessed extraordinary temperament. However, in the middle of the two of them, a crystal chair had been vacated. The person who should be sitting on it, should be the eldest daughter of the Ji Clan.
However, why was that woman not here right now …
Wait!
At this time, Ming Yu heard the bird cry that came from far behind him. In just the blink of an eye, he heard the flapping of wings and the hissing of birds behind him. The wind created when the bird landed swept towards the forty-eight kneeling warriors, causing everyone's clothes to flutter.
Ming Yu could feel that behind him, there was a deep and unfathomable expert walking towards him.
A "Hua" sound could be heard. It was the sound of ten guards kneeling on one knee. They all called out in unison, "Greetings, Princess."
The five soldiers in front of him also turned around and saluted respectfully.
The crowd suddenly became silent. Those prostrate warriors wanted to look up, but none of them dared to. They could only knock their foreheads on the ground, so no one could clearly see the woman's appearance.
Even Ming Yu was the same. He could only hear the light footsteps of a woman passing by, and then he heard the delicate yet pleasant voice of a woman:
"I woke up a little late today and arrived just in time. How are your two brothers' choices?"
"If elder sister doesn't come, how can we choose?"
"Hehe, what are you saying?"
The girl's light laughter was also very pleasant to listen to. However, the topic of the conversation changed as she said, "All of you, raise your heads."
