The more he looked at it, the more it felt like it. If the Heaven Suppressing Palace was just hovering above the skies of the Heaven Suppressing Star Continent, one could easily fly higher above it and simply look down into it.

However, if it were hovering above the whole of Zi Wei Galaxy, in a higher dimension, then it'd be impossible to fly to it, not even the Imperial Emperors would be able to do it!

And the easiest way to verify his conjecture was to just fly up!

Zhong Yue bolted up from the ground toward the monarch palace. One couldn't just tell how quickly he was but even so, after a long time flying, the Heaven Suppressing Palace was still above him, beyond his reach!

Zhong Yue continued pressing forward. He could tell himself getting closer and closer to the Heaven Suppressing Palace but no matter what, he still couldn't reach it. After a dozen days, he looked down and found the Heaven Suppressing Star Continent as well as the star river around it turning just as small as dust in his eyes.

It sure is so. The Heaven Suppressing Palace is just like the transparent jade mountain in the Ancient Land of G.o.d Graves. It looked within reach but it was in fact, in another dimension. However, the one who did this is weaker than G.o.ddess Hou Tu, the Heaven Suppressing Palace wasn't fully brought into The Impossible World.

He soon returned back to the Heaven Suppressing Palace.

This monarch palace is strange just like the jade mountain in the Ancient Land of G.o.d Graves. In the jade mountain, no matter how you try, the only way to scale the mountain is by starting at its bottom. Then, for this Heaven Suppressing Palace, the Heaven Suppressing Star Continent should be the only place that connects to the Heaven Suppressing Palace. Then, where will this entrance be?

From the other places, the Heaven Suppressing Palace was harder than expected to spot. But in this continent, it was as clear as crystal. This suggested that this continent was the only place that was connected to the palace and thus, the only entrance to it.

However, there had been no rumors of anyone succeeding in entering the palace, it seems like this entrance wasn't easy to find.

Chi Song and the rest had successfully forged eight Desolate Lightning Heavenly Furnace, in addition to Zhong Yue's, there were nine of them,

Then, Zhong Yue summoned the nine leaders and taught them how to forge a door, which they would have to forge one each too.

Chi Song, Bing Rong and the others were puzzled, but still executed the order perfectly.

Zhong Yue summoned the old G.o.d and asked, “Is there anything odd in the Heaven Suppressing Palace?”

“Everywhere.” The old G.o.d laughed, “King, you may not know yet, but our Heaven Suppressing Palace is particularly known for the many oddities going on inside of the city. Sometimes, you can even see the scenes and images of the ancient days.”

“Ancient days?” Zhong Yue was puzzled.

The old G.o.d answered, “Yes, scenes from the ancient era, some said it's even longer than the Fire Order Era.” The old G.o.d replied, “It has been hundreds of years since I first I saw it. I was shocked the first time, thinking that the G.o.dly kings of the ancient days had come alive.”

“Before the Fire Order Era?” Zhong Yue was shocked. What was before the Fire Order Era was still unknown to him. His knowledge of the history started only from the Fire Order Era, but now, he was suddenly learning that there was another civilization in the days before the Fire Order Era?

“The happenings were odd and frequent. King, if you stay here long enough, you will surely find something.” The old G.o.d replied.

Zhong Yue nodded. The odd happenings in this stronghold must have some close relations to the Heaven Suppressing Palace. If he was able to find and trace any sign down from the odd happenings, he might just be able to find the path to the Heaven Suppressing Palace!

Suddenly, the G.o.ds standing guard over the city gates reported, “Master, a team of messengers has arrived upon the gates. They proclaim themselves to be messengers of the Fei Yi Celestial Race, here to pay master a visit.”

“So quickly? Please, bring them in.”

Then, Zhong Yue smiled and turned to Yin Fanxuan, he said, “Dear, let's meet these Fei Yi messengers.”

Yin Fanxuan nodded with a smile, “Dear, you've been expecting their arrival?”

Zhong Yue held her hand as they walked toward the King's palace. He laughed, “The Fei Yi Celestial Race is a celestial race serving under Xian Tian Palace. Its sacred land is close to the Heaven Suppressing Palace. Not only them, but all the other races will have to come and visit too. Other than them, races belonging to the other forces will come too. But as for what kind of intention they've all come with, that's another story.”

“Intention?” Yin Fanxuan was puzzled, “Even the races of the Xian Tian Palace will bear ill intent toward us?”

But her question remained unanswered. They sat on the cold thrones and waited in the quiet palace. Just moments later, the Fei Yi messengers have walked into the palace with both of their hands respectfully holding on the various gifts. They were led by a Fei Yi Deity Emperor in the front.

The Fei Yi celestials had the body of humans, head of the snakes, and two snake tails on the back. When they slithered on the ground with the twin tails, they looked as though they were walking with the tails. The Fei Yi Celestial Race was born inherently with the power to manipulate fire, much like the Zhong Li Celestial Race.

The Fei Yi Deity Emperor has glanced around curiously. Clearly, he was surprised by the lack of men in the palace.

“Fei Yi Celestial Race's Yue Weifeng greets the king, greets the queen consort!” The Fei Yi Deity Emperor bowed and greeted with a smile, “King Yi, it's been a long journey to come. I cannot imagine the tediousness you have suffered along the way. The clan master wants to give you a present as a token of good will to the king.”

Zhong Yue smiled, “Sovereign Ba of the Fei Yi Celestial Race is really being over-polite now. Men, receive the gifts and set the seats.”

Two f.u.xi who were waiting outside of the palace quickly came in and received the gifts. The Fei Yi Celestial Race used two surnames, each made a great clan within the race—Yue and Ba. With the two characters combined together, it'd form the word 'Fei'. Thus, they were known as Fei Yi.

Yue Weifeng sat down and looked around, he smiled, “King, you sure are living a modest life. I have heard of your arrival and your lack of men. King Yi, if there is anything that the Fei Yi Celestial Race can help, please do not hesitate to let us know.”

Zhong Yue laughed, “You are quick in intelligence. However, it's just a cover that I've brougth only a million G.o.ds with me. I am doing so to lure the enemies out of their hideous caves. To be honest, I've brought more than 50 millions with me!”

Yin Fanxuan quickly said, “Dear, didn't we just bring a million…”

Zhong Yue glared at her and she quickly stopped.

Yue Weifeng admired King Yi and smiled, “King Yi, you sure is cunning!”

Then, Zhong Yue said, “I will be leaving you to stay for a few days, but it's a shame to say this, I've just arrived and there are many things yet to be handled. I simply can't receive any guests…”

Yue Weifeng immediately understood and has quickly stood up, he said, “Then, Weifeng will not interrupt King Yi and the queen consort. I will excuse myself now.”
Zhong Yue ordered men to send him off.

Not long later, another G.o.d reported, “Master, The Zhu Huai Celestial Race's messengers have requested to visit!”

“Welcome them in.”

Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan sat in the palace and received the Zhu Huai Celestial Race's messengers. He too, was a Deity Emperor and had also brought gifts. He said, “We have troubled King Yi. But with only this million G.o.ds, it is quite difficult to guard over the Heaven Suppressing Palace. Our Zhu Huai Celestial Race has many war-seasoned veterans, we are willing to offer our help in King Yi's mission of safeguarding the Heaven Suppressing Palace!”

Zhong Yue laughed, “Who said I only have a million with? To be frank, I've brought 60 million G.o.ds with me, those million are just a cover!”

Yin Fanxuan quickly whispered, “Dear, didn't we only bring a million…”

Zhong Yue glared at her and she quickly stopped.

Soon after, Zhong Yue ordered men to send off the Zhu Huai messengers before quickly receiving the messengers from the Shan Hun Demon Race.

“A million G.o.ds are just a cover. In fact, I've brought 70 millions!”

“Dear, you just said it was 60 million…”

After the Shan Hun Demon Race, came the Meng Huai Celestial Race.

“I've brought 80 millions!”

“Dear, it was only a million…”

Following by the Chang Cheng Celestial Race, the Zheng Race, the Pao Xiao Demon Race…

One after another, the races came to visit. There were more than thirty of them that came.

Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan kept thew gifts and sent the messengers away. Finally, all of the sacred lands around had paid their visits. Yin Fanxuan smiled, “Dear, who do you think will come first?”

Zhong Yue waved his hand and a web of Karmic Lines have appeared in front of them. He laughed, “No matter who comes first, none will be able to return alive!”

The husband and wife smiled at one another and walked out from the King's palace. They went to look at the million G.o.ds forging the treasures.

There, the burning fires of the furnaces were soaring high up in the sky. In the midst of the furnaces were the doors and surrounding the doors were the million G.o.ds. Their shoulders were exposed to the flames and their hands were holding onto huge hammers that were ramming on the doors continuously.

The doors were already in shapes and there were G.o.ds that were engraving the totem patterns on the doors.

After a week, the eight doors were fully forged. Zhong Yue ordered them to be located at the four city gates and four city corners.

Zhong Yue walked up to the City Gate of Vermillion Bird and with a thought, the door on the city gate was cast at its fullest power. The Metamagnet Divine Rays and starlights in the star river billowed like water into the center of the door, causing it to glimmer.

Then, he walked to the west corner of the city, activating the door there; then, he came to the City Gate of White Tiger, also activating the door. Soon enough, all eight doors were fully activated. The powers of the stars and the Metamagnet Divine Rays were swirling into the eight doors.

Zhong Yue walked into the door situated on the City Gate of Azure Dragon and reappeared in the City Gate of White Tiger just next second. He nods with a smile, “Now, even a million G.o.ds can secure this majestic stronghold. The only question now is whether or not there would be any Imperial Emperors that comes.”

Yin Fanxuan chortled, “What if there are?”

“If an Imperial Emperor comes, we'll abandon the city and leave.” Zhong Yue laughed.

This stronghold has no day and night, it was day all year long. Lights were shone across the city with intervals.

All of a sudden, Zhong Yue's thought was triggered and he looked at the Karmic Lines laughingly, “The Du Gu Demon Race is here! Huh, the Fei Yi Celestial Race is also here, there is also the Xiao Race, Zhu Huai Celestial Race, Zheng Race… Seems like these guys are dying for a merit in war!”

In the deep s.p.a.ce, Fei Yi Celestial Race's Yue Weifeng was smiling at an old man as he said, “Grand ancestor, taking down the Heaven Suppressing Palace is a huge merit in this war! The Heaven Suppressing Palace is now in King Yi's command but he has overestimated himself, bringing only a million G.o.ds with him. With this level of defense, our Fei Yi Celestial Race will be able to take down the Heaven Suppressing Palace in no time! However, betraying Imperial Emperor Xian Tian, this won't end well for us…”

“Nevermind that!” Sovereign Ba, the grand ancestor to the Fei Yi Celestial Race grinned, “Taking down the Heaven Suppressing Palace is huge merit to the inc.u.mbent Heavenly Monarch. As long as we have this merit in hand, Heavenly Monarch will reward us a hundred times more than what Imperial Emperor Xian Tian would! Furthermore, Heavenly Monarch will not allow Imperial Emperor Xian Tian to kill us, he will protect us for we are, meritorious subjects of his! My children, heed to my command, claim the Heaven Suppressing Palace for me!”

The Fei Yi experts whistled and yelled, and rushed for the Heaven Suppressing Palace's City Gate of Black Tortoise.

The City Gate of Black Tortoise was long closed. Outside of the city gate was the star river, and when the Fei Yi experts were crossing it, countless were killed within. Their corpses washed to the sides and none were able to remain intact in one piece.

Sovereign Ba abruptly showed his true form, a one-head, two-bodied snake. Its head gnawed on the city wall and its tails were outside of the star river. The Fei Yi experts climbed on his huge body and rushed for the City Gate of Black Tortoise. Their battle cries were loud and clear!

On the other few gates, there were the other races that came attacking. In an instant, the Heaven Suppressing Palace was besieged and was in danger!

It was at this moment, Zhong Yue stood on the [Innate Celestial Demon Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Art] and rose higher and higher. In the split of a second, he slashed his saber down at Sovereign Ba and the old Creator was beheaded and died!

Immediately, the Fei Yi experts on his back falls into the star river and were also all dead.

Zhong Yue strode forward, he stepped into the door and appeared on the City Gate of White Tiger in the next second. With a swing of his saber, the Zheng Race's grand ancestor was killed and Zhong Yue disappeared again!

He was traveling across the doors, swinging his sabers and beheading the invaders!

“King Yi!”

A loud roar came into his ears as the Zhu Huai Demon Race's grand ancestor reappeared in his true form—with the head of a cow and four horns on his head. His stalwart body was crawled with the Zhu Huai demon experts. As he crossed the star river, he has brought down his trident down right on Zhong Yue!

Dang—

The saber and trident clashed, breaking the trident into pieces and falls to the ground.

“Imperial Emperor-level weapon! Innate treasure?” The Zhu Huai Demon Race's grand ancestor exclaimed in shock while a saber ray flashed across his neck, decapitating his head before it falls into the star river.

After a long time, the cries of war have finally ceased. Zhong Yue kept his saber back and the art beneath his feet dispersed. The one million G.o.ds were seen standing on the Stone Sentinel Maze.

“Stop and rest.” Zhong Yue said solemnly, “In the future, I will bring you all and raid the sacred lands around us!”
