BXBX NOVEL Chapter 701 The Union Leader!
Ace couldn\'t help but look around and saw he was standing inside a grand hallway, and behind him stood the Sun Lord, who seemed to be now normal as if nothing had happened.
\'I\'m inside a building? Then these gates are inside some massive structure?\' Ace looked at the hundred-meter-tall gates, which were now fully opened.
"Only you are summoned. Just walk inside!" Sun Lord icily uttered.
Ace cocked an eyebrow as he still could feel deep hostility from this guy. Still, he walked inside as he didn\'t have any choice in this matter.
The interior behind those golden doors were awestruck as it seemed to be made with the finest jade and architecture. There were massive pillars with large golden statues of different races, which gave off the vivid feeling of oppression as if they were not just status but asleep monsters.
There were ten such statues, a devil, demon, hunter, elf, and even an extremely handsome human, present within those statues.
But Ace didn\'t have time to investigate those golden statues because his eyes landed on the large golden throne in the middle of the room. An otherworldly man wearing a white crown and white emperor robes was sitting on that throne majestically like a holy emperor who looked down on the world.
\'A human!?\' That thought appeared in Ace\'s mind when he saw the appearance of this crowned person.
He was probably over two meters tall with a masculine build, appeared to be in his early thirties, and had an extremely handsome mature square shape face with inky black hair and bright blue eyes as deep as clear as an ocean but equally deep.
Ace knew this guy was most likely human since he had yet to see a hunter who had different eye color than their hair. But it was also quite absurd since he didn\'t think a human could be behind the terrifying union.
"There\'s no need to be afraid. Come closer." The crowned man said with an amiable smile as if he were talking with a small child. His eyes were shimmering with great interest as he looked at baffled White.
But Ace quickly identified this voice as it was the same voice which made who suppressed that mysterious expert. He didn\'t dare to be careless in front of this man who could make that expert outside like a beaten dog with just his oppressive might.
Ace calmed his nerves as he walked toward the throne and stopped when he was only five meters away from it. He couldn\'t virtually feel this person despite being this close to him as if he didn\'t exist at all, nor did he have any aura.
"G-greeting elder!" White bowed his head in greeting with apprehension.
"Are you wondering if I\'m a human or not?" The crowned man suddenly asked with a faint smile.
Ace was startled by this question as he was really wondering this just a moment ago, and this man saw right through it. So, he replied respectfully, "I am."
"Well, for what it\'s worth, I\'m indeed a human." The crowned man admitted with a grin.
Ace was surprised and didn\'t know what to say anymore; things were going in a strange direction all of a sudden.
"Anyway, I didn\'t summon you here to discuss this trifle topic. I heard you have Dark Meridians with a mysterious, fantastic soul physique. Do you know what it means to have just one of them, not to mention both of them at the same time?" The crowned man asked without any intent behind his words.
Ace clearly has no idea as he only heard a little about these fantastic meridians and physiques from Eva as well as a little bit from the system. But he does know they were extremely rare.
"I\'ve been born in the mortal domain, so I do not know the profound secrets of the immortals." White respectfully replied.
"Immortals? Hahaha!" The crowned man suddenly guffawed, and the entire throne hall rang with his laughter.
But Ace felt a chill to his spine when he felt a very deep antagonism within that laugh.
He suddenly stopped laughing and became expressionless, "Just like mortals called use immortals since we can fly in the sky and use our Qi to do wonder in their eyes, it didn\'t make us immortals.
"We are cultivators, and cultivators persuade immortality, and unless you achieve it, you are nothing but a mortal in the eye of a stronger being than you. Just like mortals to us."
A hint of profoundness flashed past in his eyes as he asked, "Tell me, little fellow, if I give you a chance will you take over my position as the Union Leader of the Sun and Moon Sword Union?"
\'So, he\'s really the mysterious Union Leader of the Union!\' Ace felt his heart race in trepidation since this guy was simply too mysterious, not to mention scary.
Now he was asking this seemingly simple question which clearly wasn\'t.
Ace thought for a moment before he replied, "Is this the highest peak of power?"
The Union Leader\'s eyes shimmered strangely as he asked, "What if it is, and what if it isn\'t?"
"If it is, then I\'ll strive to persuade it, and if it isn\'t, I\'ll strive to surpass it. Lord Union Leader said himself, we should persuade immortality, and my goal is the same!" White\'s eyes shone undying resolved.
The Union Leader\'s eyes narrowed ever so slightly before an invisible aura suddenly released from him and encased Ace.
This time, Ace felt like he was completely naked and was afraid that he might be seen through despite wearing the grade-9 mask.
He was even more afraid that the Union Leader might also try using a soul search on him as the Sun Lord did. He now wasn\'t sure if he could even escape this guy even if the system didn\'t let him probe anything.
Without any doubt, the Union Leader was probably the scariest person he had ever encountered in his life.
The soul wisp of Moon Fiend King was nothing in front of this Union Leader in his prime!
