God Emperor

Both Lan Sibai and Lu Qian only saw Mu Lingxi. They ignored Zhang Ruochen on the side.

Actually, he didn’t want to return to the Moon Goddess Dojo either. It was only seven days. He could wait.

If he was unable to cultivate in the Truth Godly Palace, he could still go to the Ocean of Truth.

Mu Lingxi obviously knew what Lan Sibai and Lu Qian wanted. She pulled Zhang Ruochen toward the cloud ship, deciding to return to the Moon Goddess Dojo.

But Zhang Ruochen turned his hand and grabbed her. Smiling, he said, “Don’t worry. Did you forget that we have a friend in the Truth Godly Palace?”

Then he inscribed a communication rune and sent it out.

Seeing Zhang Ruochen’s hand tightly wrapped around Mu Lingxi’s wrist, Lan Sibai’s eyes flashed coldly.

He hated that they were in the Truth Heavenly Domain. If this was anywhere else, he’d have 100 ways to forcefully “invite” Mu Lingxi to his cultivation residence. And he had 10,000 ways to make this uppity human disappear soundlessly.

Lan Sibai was about to speak and invite Mu Lingxi again when he suddenly felt an intense weak feeling. He paled instantly and his vision darkened. He swayed as if he was a sick mortal.

“Brother Lan Sibai, what’s wrong?”

Lu Qian hurriedly went to support him.

Lan Sibai didn’t speak. He quickly sat down and moved Holy Qi through him. His entire body shone with brilliant white light.

Mu Lingxi grew curious. “What’s wrong?” she whispered.

Zhang Ruochen naturally wouldn’t tell her that he’d secretly sent a time print onto Lan Sibai. He just chuckled, “That four-winged angel seems to be a bit weak.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t use Spiritual Power to say it. He said it out loud.

Lan Sibai, circulating Holy Qi, grew furious.

Because he was too upset, he almost lost control of his Holy Qi. His face alternated between red and white as if he was about to explode.

A moment later, Lan Sibai finally recovered. His eyes flashing, he shot to his feet. He stopped maintaining his pretty image and glared at Zhang Ruochen.

A mere half-step Saint King human dared to mock him in public and say he was weak. He had to give him a lesson.

Whoosh!

The sound of wind broke out.

In the distance, white light flew over quickly. It landed and turned into a man with three heads and six arms.

Seeing him, Lu Qian’s expression changed. He hurried over and bowed with a smile. “Greetings, Senior Brother Feng.”

It was Feng Yan.

They were both first-level disciples, but Lu Qian couldn’t compare to Feng Yan’s background.

Plus, Feng Yan was already a Saint King. With his terrifying talent, he’d probably become a godly disciple soon.

In the Truth Heavenly Domain, their statuses were miles apart.

Lan Sibai frowned and didn’t attack Zhang Ruochen immediately. After all, Feng Yan wasn’t an ordinary figure. He was 17th on the Saints Merits Record.

Even though Feng Yan had just entered the Saint King Realm, second step Saint King Lan Sibai still might not be his match in a true fight.

Why is Feng Yan here?

Lan Sibai and Lu Qian both grew confused.

Feng Yan just smiled and nodded at Lan Sibai and Lu Qian. Then he studied Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi. Confirming Zhang Ruochen’s identity, he finally walked over and put his hands up in greeting. Smiling, he said, “Brother Zhang, it’s been half a year since our last meeting. You never came to find me at Kongling Island. I thought you forgot me!”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to disturb Brother Feng for a few days in the Truth Heavenly Domain,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Feng Yan chuckled. “Disturb? I’ll have a chance to have a friendly fight with you. Come, let us go to Kongling Island now.”

Soon, a cloud ship came and took Feng Yan, Zhang Ruochen, and Mu Lingxi to Kongling Island.

Lan Sibai and Lu Qian exchanged glances, feeling shocked.

It was understandable if Feng Yan talked to Mu Lingxi.

But how come that half-step Saint King human could be friends with Feng Yan?

Lu Qian felt down. “Brother Lan Siabi,” he asked seriously. “Who exactly is that human?”

Lan Sibai’s eyes were dark as he shook his head.

Lu Qian cried out inwardly. He’d accidentally offended someone who could befriend Feng Yan. This wasn’t good. If he wasn’t careful, he could bring trouble for himself.

“Ah!” he lamented. “Beauties cause trouble. Brother Lan Sibai, let me advise you. Don’t go after that phoenix again. If you offend someone like Feng Yan because of her, it’s not worth it.”

Lan Sibai nodded, but inside, he was still unwilling and resentful.

“Another thing,” Lu Qian said. “Five days from now, the Truth Godly Palace will hold the God-Naming Platform Conference again. With our abilities, we should be able to attend. We should prepare beforehand. Maybe we can receive one or two ancient relics from the platform.”

Lan Sibai’s expression suddenly turned joyful. “The God-Naming Platform Conference that’s once per decade? Really? Is it true?”

“How can it not be true?” Lu Qian said, chuckling. “The reason why the Truth Godly Palace will open again after seven days is mostly to make time for the conference.”

…

Kongling Island

Zhang Ruochen grew confused. “God-Naming Platform Conference?”

“Yes. In five days, it’ll be the God-Naming Platform Conference. This grand event is only held once per decade. Brother Zhang, you can’t miss it.” Feng Yan poured a cup of tea for Zhang Ruochen and then one for Mu Lingxi.

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t interested in some grand event. He’d rather spend his time on cultivation.

Noticing this, Feng Yan smiled mysteriously. “Brother Zhang, you’ll definitely regret it if you don’t attend.”

“Really?”

“From what I know, all godly disciples of the Truth Godly Palace and some first-level disciples will attend,” Feng Yan explained. “The top ten godly disciples will host the conference.”

“The top ten disciples host it together?” Zhang Ruochen was moved.

Feng Yan nodded.

Zhang Ruochen had been in the Truth Heavenly Domain for some time, so he had an understanding of the Truth Godly Palace. He knew what the top ten godly disciples stood for.

They represented the top combat abilities under the Supreme Saint Realm. They could even challenge Supreme Saints. They represented the top talents in the entire universe.

Even the top ten figures of the Saints Merits Rank might not be as excellent as them.

First, the Saints Merits Rank changed often, but the top ten godly disciples of the Truth Godly Palace hadn’t changed in the past 100 years.

Second, it was obviously much harder to become the top figure under the Supreme Saint Realm than the Saint King Realm.

Because of these reasons, the top ten godly disciples of the Truth Godly Palace were famous throughout the entire Heaven World. They were even famous in Hell World.

If the top ten godly disciples hosted a conference at the same time, it was evident how important the Truth Godly Palace viewed it to be.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen was interested, Feng Yan continued, “The Truth Godly Palace will invite the leaders of each world, as well as emperors and empresses of ancient civilizations, gods, godly descendants, and some extraordinary talents and strong cultivators. I heard that even those from the Nine Angels Beauty Scroll will come too. Of course, that’s not the most important.”

“Then, what’s the most important?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Feng Yan chuckled. “Brother Zhang, do you know what the God-Naming Platform is?”

“It’s my first time hearing it,” Zhang Ruochen said.

“Speaking of the God-Naming Platform, I must explain Heaven World’s history. Everyone knows that the Heaven World was established around 100,000 years only. Then what about before it? What was our world like 200,000 years or one million years ago?”

Zhang Ruochen listened quietly.

Feng Yan continued. “According to some ancient records, this world had ten times more Holy Qi in ancient times. Saintly meridians were everywhere and there were even divine meridians. It was even stronger than the four ruling worlds now.

“But for some reason, every being in the world went extinct. Even the gods died and it became a place of death. Only some mysterious and ancient relics were preserved. The God-Naming Platform is one of them.”

The secrets that Feng Yan revealed shocked Zhang Ruochen. He also grew very curious about the God-Naming Platform.

“It’s not just a simple conference, right?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“If you attend, you’ll obviously see what it’s like.” Feng Yan seemed to be purposely tempting him to make him go.

“I don’t think I was invited by the Truth Godly Palace.”

Feng Yan grew excited. “If you go with the identity of Zhang Ruochen, I can help you get an invitation. But you have too many enemies. It might not be a good thing to go with your true identity.

“The second way to attend is with your abilities.”

“What do you mean?”

“There are too many cultivators in the Truth Heavenly Domain but invitations are limited,” Feng Yan explained. “There are always some strong independent cultivators who qualify but are barred. So, the Truth Godly Palace set a qualification exam. Anyone who’s strong enough to pass can enter the venue.

“Brother Zhang, which method do you choose?”

Zhang Ruochen thought for a while. He took a sip of tea and smiled. “There are still five days, so there’s no hurry. I want to use this time to cross the Ocean of Truth again.”

“Really? What a coincidence! I just entered the Saint King Realm and I’d like to try the Ocean of Truth too.” Feng Yan laughed heartily.

He was so excited because he finally had a chance to compete with Zhang Ruochen.
