Chapter 188 – Martial Palace
Guo Shan immediately fixed his gaze on the pill floating in Jiang Chen’s palm. He could sense the pure energy radiating from the pill, and all the mystical symbols that covered the pill gave it a sense of divinity.
The energy that overflowed from the pill would make anyone who breathed it in feel refreshed, and give him an unparalleled comfortable feeling.
Two bright beams shout out from Big Yellow’s eyes, he kept staring at the pill as he drooled nonstop.
“Damn it, this pill looks so delicious! It would be best if daddy could take it as an appetizer with this wine!”
Big Yellow said in a heartless manner. But, before he could finish his words, Jiang Chen’s foot slammed into his face, leaving a huge footmark on it.
“Damned dog, don’t even think about it! You’re just looking for a hard beating!”
Jiang Chen glared at Big Yellow. Big Yellow knew he was in the wrong, thus, for the first time, he didn’t retort.
“I’m sure Sect Chief is here for a reason.”
Jiang Chen said as he cupped his fist towards Daoist Black.
“Indeed, I’m here to inform you about something, it will give you a sense of crisis.”
Daoist Black said as he looked at Jiang Chen.
“Sense of crisis? I suppose it is related to Nanbei Chao?”
Jiang Chen was a brilliant man, something that could attract Daoist Black’s attention and was related to Jiang Chen, it must be something related to Nanbei Chao.
“That’s right. I just got some news saying Nanbei Chao has broken through to the Divine Core realm. This isn’t what’s special, the important part is that he has been chosen by the Martial Palace, and is now a disciple of the Martial Palace.”
When mentioning the Martial Palace, Daoist Black couldn’t help but express a slight hint of respect on his face.
“What? Nanbei Chao was chosen by the Martial Palace?!”
Guo Shan exclaimed as if he had just heard something really shocking.
With a puzzled expression, Jiang Chen asked, “Martial Palace, what’s that?”
“Jiang Chen, it looks like you don’t have much knowledge about the distribution of powers in the Eastern Continent. Do you know anything about the Martial Saint Dynasty?”
Daoist Black asked.
Jiang Chen shook his head. He had never heard about the Martial Saint Dynasty before. Since he ventured from Red City, through Origin Mountain, and into the Qi Province, he hadn’t made any other stops. There were a total of 28 provinces in the Eastern Continent, and there were many powerful sects and clans with complicated relationships. He was not familiar with any of them at all.
“Younger brother, the Martial Saint Dynasty is the giant of the Eastern Continent. You could say that they’re the power who rules the entire Eastern Continent. The Martial Palace was established by the Martial Saint Dynasty, and its purpose is to cultivate all geniuses amongst every single province in the Eastern Continent.
Guo Shan explained.
“I see. With Nanbei Chao’s talent and potential, it’s only natural for him to be chosen by the Martial Palace. Oh right, since this Martial Saint Dynasty rules the entire Eastern Continent, I suppose the Qi Province is ruled by it as well… But why has nobody mentioned it before?”
Jiang Chen asked.
“It’s a shame, actually. The Qi Province is one of the weakest provinces in the Eastern Continent, and the Martial Saint Dynasty has never taken us seriously. In fact, none of the big sects in the Qi Province are even qualified to be ruled by the Martial Saint Dynasty. There are quite a few geniuses from the four big sects, and all of them broke through to the Divine Core realm before they became 30 years old and became core disciples, but none of them ever attracted the Martial Saint Dynasty’s attention. Therefore, they could only journey into more powerful provinces to train themselves further. It’s the first time in history that the Martial Saint Dynasty came to the Qi Province to invite Nanbei Chao to become their disciple; this really proves how incredible Nanbei Chao’s potential is. Right now, Nanbei Chao has broken through to the Divine Core realm, and the pressure on you has become larger.”
Daoist Black said with a worried tone. Nanbei Chao was the first man from the Qi Province to become a disciple of the Martial Saint Dynasty. His existence was not only a threat to Jiang Chen, he also posed a threat to all the other 3 big sects in the Qi Province. It would just take him a few years before the current situation in the Qi Province changed completely.
