Chapter 5351 Female Staff
Three-meter-tall perennial grasses dot the plains, their leaves shimmering with a brilliant spiritual light. Some even bear crimson fruit, radiating an alluring spiritual energy.
Green veins occasionally protruded from the ground, revealing those eternal veins. A faint golden spiritual energy could be seen flowing between them, like the blood of the earth itself.
“Is this the Gods’ Plain of Collapse?”
David was silently shocked.
He had seen many spiritual veins in the Fifth Heaven, but had never seen a cluster as dense and pure as this.
The resources of this plain alone are likely equivalent to half the combined power of Fifth Heaven.
With such valuable land, it’s no wonder the Divine Kingdom has become the highest power in the Sixth Heaven.
The bound-handed Princess of the Divine Kingdom sensed a familiar presence, and her expression darkened. She turned away from the scene below, clearly filled with hatred and disgust for the land that nurtured the gods.
“Further ahead is the capital of the Divine Kingdom,”
The princess’s voice was cold. “Three barriers surround the capital of the Divine Kingdom. Only those with a Divine Kingdom token or divine blood can enter. If you try to break through, you will be torn apart by the divine power of the barriers.”
David didn’t answer, his gaze fixed straight ahead.
Sure enough, at the edge of the plain, the outline of a large city slowly came into view.
The walls of the Divine Kingdom, built of pale golden divine stone, towered hundreds of feet high and were carved with intricate golden divine patterns. As the patterns flowed, an invisible barrier enveloped the city, exuding a terrifying pressure.
Dozens of Divine Guards clad in silver armor stood at the city gates. Each of them possessed the aura of a seventh-stage Earthly Immortal or higher. The winged divine patterns on their spears glinted, and their guards were on high alert.
David and the princess slowly landed at the city gate. As soon as they landed, two divine guards stepped forward, their spears aimed directly at David. “Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Divine Capital! Release the princess!”
The princess raised her head and said coldly, “I came with him of my own free will. I told you to bring your commander out to meet me.”
The god’s guards exchanged glances, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
Their orders were to bring the princess back at all costs. The princess had been brought here by a human cultivator, who claimed to have come of his own free will. They were at a loss for an answer.
One of the god’s guards did not hesitate and immediately turned and ran towards the city, apparently to report.
The other god’s guards, still holding their spears, didn’t act rashly. Instead, they cautiously surrounded David and the princess, their eyes fixed on David, afraid that he would harm her.
About a stick of incense passed before the loud sound of bells and pendants echoed from within the city.
A woman slowly approached. She wore a lavender palace gown, the hem intricately embroidered with phoenix patterns. Her long, jet-black hair was tied into a flying bun, adorned with a jeweled red-gold hairpin. Her skin was as white as jade, and her features exuded both charm and serenity.
He looked no more than in his early twenties, but his aura had the peak power of a level eight Earth Immortal.
He approached David, his gaze first scanning the bound princess before finally settling on David. His tone was calm yet sharp, “Fellow Daoist, thank you for returning Her Highness to the Divine Capital.
I am Zi Yuan, an aide to the king. May I know your name? Is there anything I can do to help bring back the princess?”
David stared at Zi Yuan, pondering inwardly.
The aide of the king of the Divine Kingdom turned out to be young, beautiful, and very talented.
Reaching this level of rank would require centuries of cultivation for ordinary cultivators, but Zi Yuan, who looked so young, must have extraordinary talent or special connections.
Looking at the palace dress she was wearing, although it was not the style worn by queens and concubines, it was made of high-quality materials and was completely different from the clothes of ordinary officials.
