Chapter 266 Peerless King, I was wrong!

The four major powers' encirclement and assassination of Li Xuanfeng all ended in failure. Combined with Li Xuanfeng's past deeds, the Spirit Emperor increasingly felt that Li Xuanfeng was blessed with great Luck.

Such a person is sure to rise against the odds, and the Spirit Emperor still hoped that the Ice Feather Emperor could also seize this Opportunity to change her destiny.

However, the Ice Feather Emperor's personality destined her to be unable to grasp it. Perhaps it was fated that she had no such Opportunity, and the Spirit Emperor completely gave up on the idea of persuading her.

"The Ancient Yao Palace has already shown its projection, and its complete manifestation is imminent. Many strong Cultivators have gathered towards the Ancient Mountain. After settling his women, I will depart."

"Will you come with me, or return to the Ice Cold Valley?"

The Spirit Emperor looked at the Ice Feather Emperor.

Li Xuanfeng entrusted his three women to her, and she would naturally arrange everything properly for Li Xuanfeng.

Before Elder Ba of the Mingyue family left, she refused his request to take Mingyue Qing and Mingyue Xue back to the main branch.

This action initially caused Elder Ba to misunderstand, but after some explanation and the trust Mingyue Yao and Mingyue Jin placed in Li Xuanfeng, convincing Elder Ba to trust Li Xuanfeng's choice, a potential conflict was averted.

"I'll go with you."

The Ice Feather Emperor's choice this time was quite decisive, as it was a decision she had made long ago.

After emerging from seclusion, she came to find the Spirit Emperor. Besides representing the Ice Cold Valley at the Artifact Refining Grand Competition, there was an even more important reason: to travel with the Spirit Emperor to the Ancient Yao Palace.

Legend has it that the Ancient Yao Palace was once a powerful force of the Yao Race, comparable to a Holy Land at its Peak. Unfortunately, it vanished without a trace in a war that swept across the entire Tianluo Continent, and even its ruins could not be found.

It was originally thought to have been annihilated into dust in that war. Many years later, the Yao Race accidentally discovered an anomaly in the space where the old site of the Yao Palace was located, revealing a magnificent corner of the Yao Palace to the world.

Forces from all sides arrived upon hearing the news.

If the ruins of the Ancient Yao Palace truly still existed, it would be a great Opportunity not to be missed for any power.

When a whale falls, all things grow. A power that could rival a Holy Land at its Peak, even a tiny bit of its remnants would be enough to gorge many forces.

However, when various forces gathered, they discovered that only a projection of the Yao Palace was revealed; the true Yao Palace was floating somewhere in multiple layers of space.

The higher the Realm of a Cultivator, the greater their control over space.

For example, King Realm Cultivators can draw upon the power of space to condense a Domain equivalent to a real world.

However, more terrifying powerful Cultivators can create layers upon layers of multiple spaces.

Even King Realm Cultivators who can easily traverse the Void Realm cannot move freely within those multiple spaces.

Forcibly traversing multiple spaces could easily lead to getting lost within them, trapped in a cycle for life, never to escape.

The ruins of the Ancient Yao Palace were located deep within multiple spaces. At that time, some strong Cultivators ventured deep into it and have not returned since.

However, their adventure also allowed other strong Cultivators to observe that the Ancient Yao Palace was in a wandering state within multiple spaces.

Given enough time, it might wander into real space.

To obtain the Opportunity of the Ancient Yao Palace, one could only wait for this opportune moment to appear.

Hundreds of years ago, Cultivators skilled in divination and deduction predicted that the Ancient Yao Palace would frequently show anomalies in these years and then completely manifest.

As the space of the Ancient Yao Palace vibrated more frequently, coupled with the manifestation of its complete projection, the former prophecy was gradually confirmed. The complete manifestation of the Ancient Yao Palace should be in this period.

"If the Ancient Yao Palace truly manifests, its danger level might not be inferior to publicly stating support for Li Xuanfeng."

The Spirit Emperor suddenly smiled and looked at the Ice Feather Emperor.

The Ancient Yao Palace is quite ancient, and existing Cultivators know almost nothing about it. Over the years, many Cultivators secretly collected intelligence in anticipation of its manifestation.

Eventually, from word-of-mouth among Cultivators and records in ancient texts, they obtained some information about the Ancient Yao Palace.

Legend has it that the Ancient Yao Palace once had a powerful Artifact Refining Great Master who possessed a powerful Innate Spiritual Fire. That Innate Spiritual Fire is very likely still in the ruins of the Ancient Yao Palace.

At the same time, the Ancient Yao Palace is also very likely to hide a High Grade spiritual medicine!

This medicine can not only bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh on bones, but also extend a Cultivator's Lifespan and help Cultivators break through their Bottleneck!

Regardless of whether the news is true or false, even if there is only a faint, ethereal possibility, it will attract many strong Cultivators.

Those old monsters who were in seclusion have been coming out one after another recently, and faces that were almost forgotten have reappeared. They all came specifically for that High Grade spiritual medicine.

Therefore, this trip to the Ancient Yao Palace is bound to be fraught with danger.

Coupled with the inherent dangers that might exist within the Ancient Yao Palace itself, saying its danger level is not inferior to publicly stating support for Li Xuanfeng is not wrong.

"The danger levels are definitely not the same. If I encounter danger while competing for Opportunity in the Ancient Yao Palace, I can preserve myself by giving up."

"But publicly standing with Li Xuanfeng means there's no turning back."

The Ice Feather Emperor looked at the Spirit Emperor, shook her head, and said.

"What you said makes a lot of sense."

The Spirit Emperor nodded and said no more.

With a movement of her figure, she appeared before Mingyue Qing and the two others.

"Li Xuanfeng entrusted you to me. Now, come with me."

The Spirit Emperor smiled at the three.

"Thank you, Senior Spirit Emperor!"

The three bowed to the Spirit Emperor. They hated themselves for not being strong enough; they wanted to help Li Xuanfeng but couldn't.

After all, Li Xuanfeng's abnormal speed of strength improvement was something no one else could match.

So, the best they could do was not to be a burden to him. Since he had arranged for the Spirit Emperor to protect them, they could only obey. When the time came for them to Cultivate the Yin and Yang Profound Refining Art with Li Xuanfeng, they would serve him diligently.

"No problem."

The Spirit Emperor did not know what the three were thinking. She smiled casually, then with a wave of her sleeve, an invisible force enveloped the three, and they disappeared.

The Ice Feather Emperor moved her figure and followed the Spirit Emperor.

As the Spirit Emperor left, the Cultivators who were still lingering in Artifact Refining City gradually dispersed.

Many people came hoping to catch a glimpse of the Spirit Emperor's beauty. They didn't expect to not only succeed in glimpsing the Spirit Emperor's immortal countenance but also witness the peerless demeanor of the First King Realm of all ages. This trip was truly a huge gain.

Just witnessing with their own eyes the peerless King Li Xuanfeng fighting four Cultivators from the top ten of the King Ranking and defeating a Royal Realm Cultivator was enough for them to boast about for a lifetime.

Now that both the Peerless King and the Spirit Emperor had left, there was no point in staying in Artifact Refining City.

Time flowed, and in the blink of an eye, another half a month passed.

The conflict between Li Xuanfeng and the four major powers continued, and the anomalies of the Ancient Yao Palace became increasingly obvious.

The strong Cultivators who were originally elusive became more and more frequent in their appearances.

Although they were mainly heading towards the Ancient Yao Palace, there were also many who came for Li Xuanfeng.

His secret of rapidly becoming stronger, for some strong Cultivators, was as attractive as the High Grade spiritual medicine in the Ancient Yao Palace.

Whether the High Grade spiritual medicine existed was still debatable, but the fact that Li Xuanfeng could rapidly improve his strength was true!

Therefore, during this period, many old monsters who had just emerged from long seclusion participated in the encirclement and ambush of Li Xuanfeng.

The result was obvious; no one could catch him.

Somewhere in the Black Fire Domain.

In the Void Realm.

"Peerless King, I was wrong. My mind was clouded, I didn't know my place, and I foolishly attacked you."

"Please spare my wretched life, given that my Lifespan is running out, and let me cling to life for a few more days!"

As his Domain was forcibly severed and his Physical Body was annihilated into dust, an old man who looked on the verge of death humbly begged Li Xuanfeng.

"Let me go, and I'll tell you a secret."

"So many people from the four major powers couldn't successfully encircle and ambush you. You must be skilled in the Dao of deduction and divination, right?"

"I know a person who is also skilled in the Dao of deduction and divination, and he might be planning to conspire with the four major powers against you!"

"Just let me go, and I'll tell you everything about him!"
