Monarch of Time

The Northern Sovereign's words made everyone around her descend into silence.

''Senior...''

The Grand Elder looked at the Northern Sovereign with a somewhat troubled gaze, but the Northern Sovereign simply waved her hand and said dismissingly

''I won't say anything more. Whether these kids really want to enter the City of Immortals or not is up to them. I will naturally not hinder them if they want to die.

This was merely a warning due to my relationship with your Holy sect. What you choose to do from now on is none of my business.

However, Kang Wen, you should also have a certain degree of understanding over the dangers inside that place. Anyone below the late-stage Dao King realm is simply an ant there, while only peak-stage Dao Kings will have a chance of surviving in the depths of the City of Immortals!''

The Grand Elder nodded his head solemnly without speaking.

Just like the Northern Sovereign had just said, the Grand Elder indeed knew a few things about the dangers inside the City of Immortals.

However, he wasn't planning on saying anything to Shun Long and the others about it, before they finished their breakthroughs to reach the Dao King realm.

Besides, the Grand Elder himself was also a bit scared in his heart whether Shun Long could really succeed in his breakthrough.

Having comprehended 2 supreme Daos was indeed enough to allow Shun Long to be called a monster, but the Grand Elder knew that the Heavens were always fair.

The higher one's talent was, the harsher the Heavens would be on them!

Every single one of those monsters who had appeared throughout the central region and had comprehended 2 supreme Daos in the past, were said to have faced terrifying Heavenly Tribulations.

The Grand Elder only knew of a single genius who had comprehended 2 supreme Daos and had survived his Heavenly Tribulation!

Whether Shun Long could really achieve the same feat... was actually uncertain!

The Northern Sovereign threw one last look at Shun Long and the others, before she waved her hand and said

''I have other matters to attend so I will leave you to it.

Kang Wen, I will see you inside the King's Palace!''

The Northern Sovereign's silver robes fluttered with the wind, and without another word, her figure suddenly disappeared from the spot she was standing on, almost as if she had never been there in the first place.

After a few moments of silence, the Grand Elder finally regained his senses, as he stared at the Northern Sovereign's figure that had already disappeared and said in a low voice

''Perhaps she is right. Perhaps the City of Immortals is indeed too dangerous.''

Shaking his head, the Grand Elder turned his eyes towards Shun Long and the rest, and his expression quickly returned to normal as he said to himself

''It doesn't matter. Let's focus on the King's Palace for now. The matters of the City of Immortals will come later! Although it is a good opportunity, it is not worth dying for it.''

Waving his hand, the Grand Elder then took out a small meditative cushion from his spatial ring and said on it, before he said to Shun Long and the rest

''You brats! Sit down! I will explain to you how the King's Palace works.''

After Shun Long and the others all sat down on their meditative cushions, the Grand Elder took a deep breath and said

''Just like I told you the last time, the King's Palace is a miraculous place that allows one to sense the existence of the Daos even clearer compared to the outside world.

Forget about Nascent Soul stage cultivators like you, even Dao Kings and Dao Emperors, and even Sovereign realm experts can benefit after training inside this place.

Once you enter the palace, you will immediately be able to sense the existence of the countless Daos around you.

Additionally, the deeper inside the palace you manage to get, you will be able to sense the existence of the Daos around you even more clearly than before.

However, no matter what you do, don't get too close to the depths of the King's Palace!

The closer you get to the core of the palace, the more concentrated the purple lightning bolts will become in that place.

It's not uncommon for even Dao Emperors to die after being struck by those lightning bolts, and have their souls disperse!

Additionally... there is one more important thing that you have to take note of.

This time, a few powerful geniuses from the central part of the central region will also enter the King's Palace along with everyone else.

Among them is a certain young lady, whose status even exceeds that of the Northern Sovereign's.

In the past few hours, I saw that even the Northern Sovereign herself was acting respectful to that young woman and didn't want to displease her.

After asking senior Northern Sovereign, she told me that that young lady is the personal disciple of an old monster who has exceeded the Sovereign realm, and is only a step away from becoming a true immortal!

That person is a true expert who stands at the peak of the central region and the cultivation world.

Even the Northern Sovereign is wary of that senior and doesn't want to offend his personal disciples!

No matter what you do, you must not offend that young lady or even I will be unable to protect you!''

The look inside the Grand Elder's eyes was extremely grave as he said the last sentence, almost as if he was cautioning and pleading Shun Long at the same time.

After a few moments of silence, Shun Long cupped his hands and bowed slightly towards the Grand Elder, as he said in a sincere voice

''Thank you, senior!''

No matter what, Shun Long had an extremely favorable impression of the Grand Elder.

The Grand Elder had done everything he could to keep Shun Long and the rest safe.

Nodding his head, the Grand Elder didn't say anything else, as he sat down cross-legged with his eyes closed, as he waited next to Shun Long and the rest for the King's Palace to open.

Finally, 5 days later, the lightning around the palace's entrance seemed to have thinned out so much, that the King's palace could finally be seen clearly.
