Chapter 404 - Into the Floating Palace
Chapter 404: Into the Floating Palace
30,000 meters in the sky of Silvermoon.
There was a tree swaying in the air.
However, if one were to observe closely, the one floating 30,000 meters in the sky was not a tree.
It was a tree on an island.
The branches and soil the gigantic tree, that was around three hundred meters tall, was growing on had formed an island.
Near its trunk was a palace. It was called the Floating Palace.
The Floating Palace architecture was very simple, but it radiated a majestic aura.
The gigantic stone doors of the Floating Palace were locked tightly. In the middle of the two doors was a long, horizontal slot. As if it was a place to slot in a key.
At this time, two people were standing in front of the Floating Palace, by the island’s edge.
One was the ruler of Silvermoon, King Zhou. The other was his follower, Shi Long.
Shi Long stood behind King Zhou with shock as he stared at him.
He did not expect that the skills of the Greater Sacred Masters would be so powerful. King Zhou had directly teleported them onto the Floating Island from Tianzi City.
If he were fighting King Zhou, no one could stop him if King Zhou wanted to escape.
Only now did he realize the distance between King Zhou and himself.
“Hm? I felt that the Shifter Emperor was somewhere nearby just now, but why can I no longer feel his presence?”
King Zhou took out a pearl and held it in his hand, and mumbled to himself with a frown.
Shi Long said, “Did he notice us?”
King Zhou shook his head. “The Pearl of Senses in my hand is a Post-Creation Treasure. Even a Greater Sacred Master would have difficulty noticing us. The Shifter Emperor is but an Immortal Beast, it would be impossible for him to notice us. Then, there are two possibilities. The first one is that he had dived into the water. The second one is that he is no longer within the range of the Pearl of Senses.”
The Pearl of Senses could not detect anyone or anything underwater, and perhaps its only one weakness.
“Hm? The Shifter Emperor has appeared again and is heading here quickly. Looks like he was hiding in the water just now!” At this time, King Zhou could once again feel Jiang Feng’s aura by holding the Pearl of Senses in his hand.

Jiang Feng stood on the Somersault Cloud and looked toward the Floating Island in the air.
Suddenly, he remembered something and sent a message to Ling Feiyu. “Feiyu, ask Bobo how to quickly open and close the Floating Island.”
Very quickly, Ling Feiyu replied to him, “On the Floating Island, there is a Floating Palace. There is a slot on the stone doors into the Floating Palace. Place the Floating Palace Schema into the door to open it. Take the Schema away to close it immediately.”
Seeing Ling Feiyu’s message, Jiang Feng took a deep breath with his left hand holding the Immortality Talisman and quickly headed toward the Floating Island that was on top of him.
However, this time he would not be facing King Zhou’s duplicate as he did on the Divine Dominion Continent. But the real King Zhou. A Greater Sacred Master. He was under immense pressure.
Several minutes later, he had arrived at the edge of the Floating Island.
As soon as got up and before he could observe the Floating Island, he then saw that King Zhou and Shi Long were standing on the edge of the island with their hands behind their back.
“Long time no see, Shifter Emperor!” King Zhou smiled coldly at Jiang Feng.
“Loser! You have no right to speak to me!” He replied proudly. Despite King Zhou giving him enormous pressure, he also had his pride as the Shifter Emperor.
“Hehe, Loser? You?” King Zhou sneered at Jiang Feng.
“Scram!”
Jiang Feng did not want to waste his breath on King Zhou. He took out and used the Immortality Talisman, and a golden light covered all over him. He instantly teleported toward the Floating Palace.
“Entering the Floating Palace, is it? But, do you think that is possible?”
Boom!
King Zhou waved his hand, and Jiang Feng’s teleportation was instantly disrupted and his body violently slammed into the ground.
“Gah!”
Even with the Immortality Talisman, though his Sacred Health did not decrease, the powerful crash caused all of his internal organs to shake. He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood on the ground.
“Dimension Door!”
Jiang Feng did not care what King Zhou was going to do, and he teleported away once again.
“Kneel before me!” King Zhou snorted, and a white light immediately scattered around him, creating a domain.
This was King Zhou’s Sacred Domain, and it was very powerful.
Jiang Feng’s teleportation was once again interrupted and he fell to the ground.
‘Damn it! A Greater Sacred Master’s power is so terrifying!’
He spat another mouthful of blood and stood up from the ground with great difficulty. Then, he used Dimension Door again.
“I did not expect that you would have items that grant you immortality. But all such items have their time limits. Let me see how long you can endure this!” King Zhou took out his Nine Dragons Sword and slowly strolled toward Jiang Feng, who kept on falling.
When King Zhou was next to Jiang Feng, he swiped the Nine Dragon Sword in his hand and slashed through Jiang Feng’s back.
Shred…
And a sword wound appeared on Jiang Feng’s back, fresh blood kept on dripping. Very quickly, the clothes on him were all soaked in red.
“Roar!”
He looked at the Floating Palace that was 500 meters away, and he transformed into a hundred-meter long dragon. With a roar, he resisted King Zhou’s domain and headed straight toward the palace.
But as soon as its gigantic dragon body flew, he once again fell onto the ground.
“Roar! Requiem!”
The moment he fell onto the ground, he used his crowd-control skill.
A bell rang and Shi Long began to sway, but King Zhou felt nothing at all, as If the Requiem skill had little effect on him.
“This skill of this level is useless against me. You should simply give up!” King Zhou said.
“Damn you!” Jiang Feng cursed and quickly used his Time Stop skill.
King Zhou, who had been cursed at, was just going to slash Jiang Feng with his sword. His body was stopped for a single moment.
“Dimension Door.”
The moment that King Zhou’s body was stopped, his domain would also lose effect. Jiang Feng used this chance to teleport and appear in front of the Floating Palace’s stone door. He took out the Floating Island Schema and pressed it into the slot of the stone door.
The moment that the Floating Island Schema was inserted into the slot, the stone door opened. He grabbed the Floating Island Schema and immediately entered the Floating Island with a teleport.
Boom!
The moment that he entered the stone doors, the stone doors were once again closed. And it was at this time that King Zhou had escaped from the bindings of time stop. The Nine Dragon Swords in hand violently slashed toward the stone doors that had only left behind a small gap before closing completely with a boom.
Unfortunately, the Floating Island was built on Dragonquarry by Bobo. Its materials were not something that could be broken by the Nine Dragon Sword.
King Zhou arrived in front of the stone door in the blink of an eye. He was furious, and the Nine Dragon Sword in his hand once again sliced violently on the stone doors.
He had never dreamed that Jiang Feng would have skills that allowed him to control time.
While normal crowd control skills were useless against him, time-based crowd control skills would still have some effect on him. Of course, the effect was minor, and would only affect him for about 1 second.
But Jiang Feng was able to quickly enter the palace with that 1 second.
***
“Huff… Huff… That was so dangerous!”
After entering the stone door, the Immortality Talisman’s duration had also run out. Jiang Feng, who was soaked in blood, sat down against the stone door as he panted.
If his Time Stop skill did not have any effect on King Zhou, he would already be killed, and the Floating Island Schema would be dropped.
If the Floating Island Schema fell into King Zhou’s hands, he could not even begin to imagine the consequences of that.
