YM778.TV Chapter 384 - The Invasion
Upon hearing the commanding voice of the Palace Lord, Supreme Elder Han immediately stopped. At the same time, he kept on staring at Ling Chen with his eyes filled with battle intent.
Even though he didn\'t believe the Palace Lord\'s claim about him not being able to defeat that little brat, he didn\'t dare to make a move or disregard the Palace Lord\'s order.
Not only Supreme Elder Han, but even the other Supreme Elders were surprised as well upon hearing the Palace Lord\'s words.
"I would also ask all of you to leave. I have something to discuss with the little friend alone."The Palace Lord added. Even though his voice wasn\'t loud, there was a will within them that allowed no dispute, no disobedience.
As if receiving a God\'s decree, the Supreme Elders got up from their seats and left the main hall one by one, including Supreme Elder Han.
Soon, it was only Ling Chen and the Palace Lord in the main hall. As for the Dark Primordial Shura Gods, Ling Chen had asked them to wait outside as well.
"Sorry for the misunderstanding little friend. It seems like this old man\'s senses are getting worst with the passing years."Said the Palace Lord with an amiable smile on his face as he was looking at Ling Chen.
The old man was the famous Leviathan Palace Lord, the highest existence in the Nova Galaxy.
If the Supreme Elders were still here to hear this, they would have been completely dumbfounded and thought that they must have misheard. A character like that was apologizing to a nameless little brat.
However, the Palace Lord didn\'t just apologize to Ling Chen on a whim, he saw something terrifying during the fight between Ling Chen and Supreme Elder Han that made him instantly changed his attitude towards Ling Chen.
The others might have missed it, but not him. He was able to see and sense everything. He might be stronger than Ling Chen but the Palace Lord didn\'t believe that he could kill Ling Chen or stopped him if he wanted to leave this place.
As such, he decided to treat Ling Chen like an equal rather than just a little brat.
Looking at the sudden change of attitude of the Palace Lord, Ling Chen couldn\'t help but smile. This old man was truly a calculating old fox.
He knew when to retreat and when to advance. He also knew how to swallow his pride when he needed to diffuse a situation.
"Don\'t worry about it, it\'s all in the past now so let\'s not dwell on it. Since you wanted to talk to me, let us not waste time walking in circles and get straight to the point."Ling Chen said with a slight smile on his face.
"Well, If the little friend said so, I guess I won\'t mince for words. Does the little friend have any connection with the Great Luo Empire?" The Palace Lord suddenly asked in a solemn tone.
This was the most important question for the Palace Lord at the moment. And depending on the answer, the Palace would choose whether to cooperate with Ling Chen or use all of his power to destroy him on the spot.
"I don\'t have any connection with the Great Luo Empire and as for how I was able to acquire the shard of the Dimensional Spatial Gateway\'s Key, I just killed the crown prince of the Great Luo Empire and took his spatial ring."
"I didn\'t even know that little thing was important until some of your people were trying to kill me for it." Answered Ling Chen truthfully.
Ling Chen already knew why the Palace Lord was asking him that question. As such, he didn\'t lie to him and put him at ease.
Also, he didn\'t do that because he was afraid of the Palace Lord but because he wanted to know about the shard of the Dimensional Spatial Gateway\'s Key.
He knew that even if he were to kill them and absorbed their memories, he might not get the information he wanted as they all have a ban on their soul. As such, he decided to play nice with them until he no longer needed to.
"I see. Thank you for clearing this old man\'s doubt and again sorry about our previous actions." Said the Palace Lord with a sigh of relief.
He truly didn\'t want to make an enemy out of Ling Chen. However, if Ling Chen was somehow connected to the Great Luo Empire, he would have no choice but to try to eliminate him.
"Anyway, now that we get this out of the way. It\'s time to get into business."Said the Palace Lord.
At the same time, his expression suddenly changed as he said in a solemn tone." Little Friend, what I am about to tell you is only known by the True God-Kings experts in the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe."
Upon heating the Palace Lord\'s words, Ling Chen\'s expression also changed as he suddenly became serious as well.
"I am sure that the little friend knows about the existence of the 6th Ring of the Chaos Universe."The Palace Lord suddenly asked to which Ling Chen nodded his head in acknowledgment.
"As you know, every time a God-king expert like me reach the Peak of the Early-stage God King realm, we will immediately be kicked out the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe to the 6th Ring of the Chaos Universe by this Realm\'s Will as we have reached the limit of power that this realm could handle."
"However, since ten thousand years ago, this was no longer possible. We\'re all stuck in the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe like a prisoner with no way out."
"That\'s even worse for peak early-stage God-King realms expert like me who could only watch as his lifespan and blood energy withering with every passing year and couldn\'t do anything to increase it or stopped it."
"Even though we have a long lifespan, it\'s still not easy knowing your predestined death and not be able to prevent it." Said the Palace Lord.
"Then why don\'t you guys use the 7th Extreme Void Belt to enter the 6th Ring of the Chaos Universe instead of the waiting for death here."Ling Chen asked with a puzzled expression on his face as he was looking at the Palace Lord. He couldn\'t believe a powerful expert like the Palace Lord couldn\'t think of that.
Listening to Ling Chen\'s words, the Palace Lord smiled wryly. It was as if he knew that Ling Chen was going to ask him that.
"The main reason we can\'t ascend to the 6th Ring of the Chaos Universe is because of the endless void of darkness that you call Extreme Void Belt." Said the Palace Lord.
"What do you mean?"Asked Ling Chen with a confused expression on his face.
"The creatures from that place have invaded the 6th Ring of the Chaos Universe and the others. There\'s a great war going on and only the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe and below haven\'t been affected yet."
