Deep within the main hall, on a high platform, stood a majestic throne covered entirely in gold. The throne had intricate patterns, was inlaid with magical treasures, and exuded majesty.
On the throne sat a middle-aged man, whose aura dominated the entire room, and no one dared to look him in the eye.
This person had a stern and cold face, with sword-like eyebrows that reached his temples, and bright and sharp eyes. He exuded an aura of authority without appearing angry. Her long, silky blonde hair flowed over her shoulders, and she was surrounded by a faint golden aura that was the source of her existence. He looked refined and very noble.
He was the master of the Heavenly Palace, a famous leading expert in the Northern Region of the Seventeenth Heaven—the Heavenly Venerable.
A Heavenly Venerate’s cultivation was immeasurable. He had established himself at the third rank of Golden Immortal, with a solid foundation, abundant origins, and profound Daoist techniques.
Compared to the newly promoted Gold Immortals, Venerable Red Flame and Venerable Cold Abyss, he was three tiers higher, a huge difference, and his aura outshone his peers.
His golden pupils were as deep as an abyss, with the light and shadow of stars hidden in their depths.
His gaze swept across us casually, but was as sharp as a divine weapon, with extremely strong penetrating power. Just one glance was enough to make people tense and feel cold in their souls, making them not dare look into her eyes. The atmosphere in the entire room instantly became solemn and heavy.
The Heavenly Venerate spoke slowly, his voice deep and resonant, his steps steady and calm, exuding the calm and dignified aura of a superior: “Chiyan and Hanyuan, I have received reports from my subordinates that you have successfully broken through the Golden Immortal barrier, solidified your Dao foundations, and crossed over to the Seventeenth Heaven.”
“According to the regulations of the Divine Race’s Celestial Realm, newly promoted Gold Immortals must come to my palace to report their assignments, verify their Dao foundation, and register themselves. After that, I will evenly divide the Celestial Realm’s garrison areas and arrange task assignments.”
“However, the two of you have sent a message to the hall beforehand, saying that there is a very important matter regarding your cultivation breakthrough, which requires my personal assistance?”
Red Flame Venerable immediately stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and was very polite, not daring to be disrespectful before a high-ranking Venerable.
He raised his hand and took out an ancient, dark, and dim round bead from his chest. It was the Soul Suppressing Bead that sealed David’s soul. He held it steady in his palm and demonstrated it with both hands.
“Reporting to Palace Master, this matter is indeed related to an extraordinary opportunity. When the opportunity is right, it can help someone powerful to break through their realm and ascend to a higher path.”
Red Flame Venerable spoke sincerely, deliberately exaggerating the value of the treasure to suit Heavenly Venerate’s wishes.
“Inside this Soul Suppressing Pearl, there is a trace of the soul of a True Immortal Realm cultivator. This person’s cultivation is low and he is nothing to be afraid of. He was born as the leader of the Sixteenth Heaven’s Resistance Army. He has no sect, no backing, no help, and is alone without any background.”
“But deep within this person’s soul lies a heaven-transcending treasure, handed down from ancient times. This treasure possesses immense power and is of extremely high quality. Its explosive power far surpasses ordinary Gold Immortal treasures, and cannot be compared with ordinary treasures from the Seventeenth Heaven.”
“My subordinates and Han Yuan joined forces and exerted all our strength to activate the high-level ancient soul refining array, exhausting our initial spiritual power and launching repeated attacks, but we were still unable to break through the treasure’s protective barrier, and unable to refine the soul and seize the treasure.”
“Because there was no other choice, I purposely crossed realms to come here and earnestly begged Palace Master for help.”
If they could work together to refine this divine soul and retrieve its hidden treasure, the Palace Master, empowered by this thing, would definitely see his cultivation rise steadily, breaking through his current limitations and reaching a new cultivation level. He would then become invincible, ruling the Northern Region.
These words were sincere and perfectly aligned with Venerable Tianji’s ambitions. Those words not only highlighted how precious the opportunity was, but also relieved the other party’s worries, thereby successfully capturing their hearts.
The Heavenly Venerable’s eyes flashed slightly, his golden eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze immediately fell on the Soul Suppressing Pearl in the palm of the Red Flame, a glimmer of curiosity and excitement flashed in his eyes.
He casually raised his hand, and a gentle yet powerful golden primal force emerged from the air, shapeless and formless, slowly drawing the Soul Suppressing Pearl from a distance. The pearl floated in the air in front of him, rotating slowly.
Soon after, he concentrated his energy, activated the powerful divine sense of a level five Gold Immortal, and carefully penetrated the barrier of the Soul Suppressing Pearl to explore and probe its interior.
Soon, he could clearly see the stable, purple divine soul light floating within the bead, and even detected a faint, warm, deep, and eternal golden light emanating from the depths of the divine soul core.
With just one glance, the Heavenly Venerate’s pupils suddenly narrowed slightly, and his heart jolted.
The golden rays of light were ancient, majestic, majestic, and profound—an aura that no ordinary spiritual treasure or immortal artifact could emit.
Within that golden light, there was a faint aura of ancient primordial laws that surpassed the Golden Immortal dimension and surpassed the rules of the Celestial Realm. The aura was ancient, majestic, and extremely noble, far surpassing all the treasures he had ever seen in his life.
An incredible opportunity, an unmatched opportunity!
