Chapter 700: The secret behind the King\'s Palace

\'\'The King\'s Palace?\'\' Shun Long was somewhat surprised when he heard this, before a surge of interest sprouted in his heart.

He would actually be lying if he said that he wasn\'t interested in this \'King\'s Palace\'.

He had already heard that the Holy sect would take 10 peak rank 9 Nascent Soul stage outer disciples when the palace opened, and those disciples would have a very high chance of breaking through to the Dao King realm inside the palace.

The Grand Elder nodded his head when he saw Shun Long\'s reaction before he continued

\'\'Of course, you should try to reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage before the King\'s Palace opens a year from now, or it would be pointless for you to go there.\'\'

Shun Long fell silent when he heard this as he pondered seriously over whether he could really reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage in a year.

Although he was already at the middle of rank 7 in the Nascent Soul, and a year in the outside world would mean that 10 years would have gone by if he cultivated inside the foggy space in the \'Stone of Time\', Shun Long knew by now how tough it was to progress in the late stages of the Nascent Soul.

The qi that his qi balls needed was increasing even more than before, and every subsequent ball of qi that Shun Long created was even harder to enter inside his \'Monarch\'s Hourglass\'.

Additionally, Shun Long knew that he would also have to purify all 81 balls of qi after he reached the peak of rank 9 in the Nascent Soul.

The quality of his soul would also need to reach the absolute peak of the Nascent Soul stage by then.

At this point, Shun Long wasn\'t completely certain if he could reach the peak of the Nascent Soul within a year.

After taking a deep breath, Shun Long looked at the Grand Elder and asked

\'\'Senior, what exactly is the King\'s Palace?\'\'

Curious expressions appeared on Liu Mei\'s and the other\'s faces as they looked at the Grand Elder as well.

The Grand Elder had a solemn look on his face as he looked at Shun Long and answered seriously

\'\'This is actually a secret that only Sovereign realm experts are privy to, but I guess there is not much harm in telling you. The King\'s Palace was actually the abode of a powerful peak expert in the past.

That expert had even surpassed the Sovereign realm and was one of the absolute top experts in the entire central region.

He was rumored to be an extreme genius who had even comprehended a supreme Dao, while his strength was unmatched!

Single-handedly, that expert could dominate even the most ancient and powerful clans like the Bai clan and the others, while even the strongest powers in the entire central region wouldn\'t dare to offend him.

That person could even be considered one of the strongest experts in the history of our entire Cultivation world, and he was only a step away from breaking through and becoming a true immortal!\'\'

The Grand Elder\'s eyes seemed to have turned extremely deep and profound as he stared at Shun Long, before he continued

However, the Heavens are always fair, and the more powerful and talented a person is, the more difficult a tribulation he would have to face to become a true immortal and possess an unlimited lifespan.

The day that that person attempted his breakthrough to the immortal realm, the Heavens throughout the entire Cultivation world were said to have dimmed before a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation descended to his abode.

Unfortunately, that expert failed his breakthrough and eventually perished under the Heavenly Tribulation, while his residence turned into a terrifying place that was covered with terrifying lightning all year long.\'\'

The moment the Grand Elder said that such a genius who had comprehended a supreme Dao had failed his Heavenly Tribulation and had perished, everyone could feel waves of shock and even uneasiness in their hearts.

After all, they would all attempt their breakthrough to the Dao King realm soon, and everyone would have to face the Heavenly Tribulation as well.

Even Shun Long was no different.

Shun Long had yet to meet another person who had comprehended a supreme Dao aside from himself and Liu Mei who had comprehended her Dao of Death, but he already understood what it meant for one of the strongest people in the central region to have perished like that.

An expert whom even the strongest powers throughout the central region feared and showed respect to had failed his breakthrough and had died.

For someone who had comprehended a supreme Dao to have died under the Heavenly Tribulation, it obviously showed that that expert wasn\'t lacking in talent but probably luck.

After all, how could someone who had comprehended a supreme Dao be lacking in talent?

At this point, Shun Long was also slightly worried about his own Heavenly Tribulation when he tried to breakthrough to the Dao King realm.

After all, not only had he comprehended 2 supreme Daos, one of which was the Dao of Time, but Shun Long also had the \'Stone of Time\' merged with his soul.

He didn\'t know what his Heavenly Tribulation would be like, but he was certain that even reaching the Dao King realm would probably be terrifying.

After all, the Grand Elder had said just now that \'the Heavens were always fair, and the more talented a person was, the more terrifying their Heavenly Tribulation would also be\'.

The Grand Elder didn\'t seem to have noticed Shun Long\'s and the others\' changes in their expressions, as he continued explaining a moment later

\'\'Although that powerful expert failed in his breakthrough and perished, his palace somehow turned into a holy place for cultivation,? where the existence of Daos could be sensed even better compared to the outside world.

As long as peak Nascent Soul cultivators and even Dao Kings enter the King\'s Palace, their chanced to breakthrough will increase exponentially.

Of course, whether they will succeed in their breakthroughs or not is a completely different story.

However, it is rumored that even experts who have surpassed the Sovereign realm and are only a step away from becoming true immortals can\'t get past the lightning around the King\'s Palace and forcefully enter that expert\'s abode.

It is only once every 5 years that the lightning around it turns weak enough to allow experts at the Dao Emperor realm or above to get past it and enter the palace.

Of course, even ordinary Dao Emperors will have trouble getting past the lightning and entering inside.

At most, a single Dao Emperor can only carry 2 people inside the King\'s Palace.\'\'
