Chapter 818 - The Sacred Prince
The Doctrine Palace was one of the most ancient locations in the Nine Realms, and, even after rummaging through all the history books, one couldn’t find any clues about it. It could be said that it was even more mysterious than the Title Palace.
When the Doctrine Palace was first discovered, it alarmed even the Three Upper Realms. All the Three Upper Realms’ sacred lands, schools, and influential families sent specialists to plunder all the Doctrine Palace’s treasures. Moreover, then they all fought almost daily over the discovered treasures. It was a tremendous and shocking battle. It was then that the Three Middle Realms’ Spirit Clans became aware of how powerful the Three Upper Realms’ humans were. After that, they all behaved well for more than 1,000 years.
By this age, the Doctrine Palace was completely empty; not even a piece of hair was left in it. What was left were just the defense mechanisms against treasure hunters.
There wasn’t just a single Doctrine Palace; there was one present in every one of the Nine Territories. Ning Haotian came to the Three Emperors Territory to barge into the Doctrine Palace, but when he got news that Jiang Chen would participate in an Elixir Contest, he went to Heaven Divine City just for him.
“Let me see how powerful the Fourth Palace’s geniuses are.”
After four days had passed, Jiang Chen reached the Doctrine Palace’s location. He was now in the sky before a great mountain. The Doctrine Palace was set on the mountain, and many buildings stretched as far as the eye could see around the mountain. However, he couldn’t see any city walls, and the buildings were scattered around in a slipshod pattern. It couldn’t be considered a real city!
The Great Mountain possessed a mystical power, and no one was able to fly above it to get there. Thus, Jiang Chen landed at the foot of the mountain. He had already heard that the Doctrine Palace wasn’t open all the time, but followed a weekly cycle. This restriction wasn’t inherent in the Doctrine Palace but was set by the Three Upper Realms’ people to prevent the Nine Territories’ people from getting into it. They knew that the Doctrine Palace was extraordinary and were worried that it would be wrecked by others.
On the second floor, Jiang Chen put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth slowly, before he asked for water to wash his hands.
In any case, I’m just idling for now, Jiang Chen muttered to himself, while his gaze flickered.
