Monarch Of Time

Chapter 719: Inside the palace

The Elders of the Holy sect all nodded their heads, as each of them carried an outer court and inner court disciple with them before they followed after the Grand Elder.

As for the early rank 7 Darkness Eagle, the Grand Elder had ordered it to stay behind and not approach any closer to the King's Palace.

BOOOM

BOOOM

BOOOM

The sound of the purple bolts of lightning descending from the sky entered everyone's ears, as the group of Elders from the Holy sect approached closer and closer to the entrance of the King's Palace.

It was only at this moment that the outer court disciples of the sect understood, why Dao Emperors were the only ones who could approach the black palace in front of them.

The closer they got to the entrance of the palace, the more concentrated the purple lightning bolts around them seemed to become.

The moment that the Grand Elder had arrived just 100 meters away from the entrance of the King's Palace, Shun Long and the others all saw more than a dozen of purple lightning bolts striking down towards them from every direction.

Whether one wanted to advance or retreat, the purple lightning bolts seemed to have blocked off every direction.

The group of inner court Elders behind the Grand Elder were already struggling to protect the 2 outer court and inner court disciples that they were carrying with them, as they did their best to hurriedly dodge the purple lightning bolts that were coming in their direction while slowly advancing forward.

However, the Grand Elder didn't seem to be having too much trouble as he easily protected Shun Long's group of 5, and a few moments later, he had already arrived in front of the gates of the dilapidated black palace.

The entrance of the King's Palace had clearly been bombarded by the purple lightning bolts for countless years and had already been destroyed, allowing anyone to enter inside as they pleased.

A few moments later, once they entered inside the palace, stunned looks appeared on the faces of the 10 outer court disciples who were carried by the 10 inner court Elders, while even Shun Long and the rest were all rooted in place as they stared at their surroundings in complete silence.

The interior of the King's Palace was in an even worse situation than its exterior as the walls of the palace looked to be on the verge of collapse, and yet, nobody paid any attention to this.

The moment that the Grand Elder had carried them past the entrance of the King's Palace, Shun Long and the rest could sense as if they had entered a completely new world.

Shun Long could feel that his surroundings were completely different from the outside world, and without even meditating, he could still sense the countless Daos that were present everywhere around him.

This was a natural feeling that he had never felt before, one that filled his heart with excitement.

The Grand Elder nodded his head with a smile on his face when he saw Shun Long's and the others' reactions, before he said in a calm voice a moment later

''This place can be considered the outermost region of the King's Palace. Whether you want to stay and cultivate here or head deeper inside the palace, that's up to you.''

As the Grand Elder finished speaking, he threw one last look at the outer court and inner court disciples in front of him, before his body turned into a blur as he headed deeper inside the King's Palace.

The inner court Elders looked at each other and nodded their heads before they followed after the Grand Elder, leaving the outer court and the inner court disciples behind.

The truth was that in this outermost region of the King's Palace, the purple lightning bolts that could be seen everywhere previously were now almost nonexistent.? Aside from a few sparse lightning bolts that would rain down from the sky every now and then, this area was indeed much safer than the area outside of the King's Palace.

The inner court disciples nodded their heads soon after the Elders had left, before they too headed deeper inside the King's Palace.

This wasn't the first time for these inner court disciples inside the King's Palace as each of them already knew their way around the place.

These inner court disciples clearly understood, that staying in the outer region of the King's Palace wouldn't be enough for them if they wanted to breakthrough to the Dao Emperor realm!

Soon, only Shun Long's group of 5, as well as the rest of the outer court disciples of the Holy sect were left behind.

And yet, even though the Elders and the inner court disciples had already left, Shun Long wasn't in a hurry to make a move just yet, as he observed his surroundings calmly without speaking.

Just like the Elders of the Holy sect, there were many other Dao Emperors from the various powers of the central region who had left their descendants or disciples in the outer region of the King's Palace, while they themselves headed deeper inside.

After a few moments of silence, Shun Long turned his gaze towards Liu Mei and the rest and said with a smile on his face

''Let's go. Since we are already here, we should have a look at the inner region of the King's Palace as well.''

As soon as he finished speaking, Shun Long immediately circulated his 'Monarch's Hourglass' without any hesitation, causing his eyes to instantly turn golden.

This action startled the few outer court disciples around him who had yet to leave, but Shun Long didn't pay any attention to them, as he led Liu Mei and the others deeper inside the King's Palace.

Although most other Nascent Soul cultivators and even Dao King realm experts wouldn't be able to react to the bolts of purple lightning that would attack them from the sky in time, sneak attacks like that were the last thing that Shun Long feared.

With his golden eyes, Shun Long had enough confidence to walk inside the King's Palace unhindered, almost as if he was taking a stroll in his own garden.
