Without exception, they all showed deep awe when they saw the stars on the throne.
The space within the main hall distorted continuously, and the light from the divine kingdom's teleportation flickered. Soon, hundreds of immortal kings gathered together, arranged on both sides according to their strength, and knelt on one knee in unison.
"Meet the master!"
The sound was like thunder, causing the dome of the main hall to tremble slightly.
Xingchen's gaze swept over the crowd, and she nodded slightly.
The final teleportation beam lit up, and a king clad in silver armor appeared with a woman in a purple dress.
"Master, Miss Elena has arrived."
The silver-armored king respectfully said.
Elena stepped forward gracefully, her long purple dress flowing like water. She gently touched her left breast with her right hand and gave a slight bow: "Palace Mistress."
A gentle light flashed in Xingchen's eyes: "Elena, it's been a long time."
Three thousand years have passed, and Elena's aura has become more restrained, clearly indicating that her strength has also improved. She looked up at the stars, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
"Palace Master, you've broken through?"
Although Xingchen deliberately concealed his aura, the overwhelming pressure still made Elena feel a slight unease.
Xingchen did not answer directly, but looked at the kings in the hall and said, "Rise, all of you."
"Thank you, Master!"
Hundreds of kings responded in unison and rose in unison. Their gazes towards the stars held not only their original awe, but also a newfound sense of awe.
As immortal kings, they could sense the changes in Xingchen even more than Elena. That subtle yet powerful pressure reminded them of the feeling they had when facing a cosmic sovereign.
"I have gathered you all here today to announce an important matter."
The stars' voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.
"First, I have broken through to immortality."
Although they had suspected it beforehand, a collective gasp still rippled through the hall when Xingchen confirmed it himself.
They had personally witnessed their master's feat of suppressing a king with the body of a realm lord.
Now that he has broken through to immortality, how terrifying must his strength be?
"Secondly, I am about to head to the battlefield outside the region."
Xingchen continued, "We need to select ten kings to accompany us."
As soon as the words were spoken, all the kings in the hall stepped forward, their eyes gleaming with fervent light. To be able to follow their master into battle on the outer battlefields was an immense honor for them.
"King of Flame Prison, King of Illusion Dream, King of Sword River..."
Xingchen began calling out names, and without exception, all of them were either high-level or even at the limit of the King rank.
"Ten of you will follow me to the outer battlefield. As for the rest, continue to assist Elena in managing the Star Palace."
"Yes!"
Xingchen's gaze fell upon the remaining King Limit.
"King Shaji, take these precious treasures."
Xingchen casually tossed out several valuable treasures.
Attack type, defense type, domain type, palace type, origin type.
There are five precious treasures in total.
"After I leave, the Star Palace will be entrusted to your protection. With these five treasures, you can face even the most powerful and invincible king."
King Shaji respectfully accepted it.
"Yes, Master."
Chapter 80 The Treasure Arrives
Xingchen's gaze turned to Elena.
"Elena".
The woman in the purple dress bowed slightly: "Please give your orders, Palace Master."
"During my absence, you will still be in charge of handling matters related to the Star Palace. If anything happens, please notify me directly through the virtual universe."
The stars' voice was gentle yet undeniable.
"But one thing is certain: you must focus more on your own self-cultivation."
Elena looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in her purple eyes.
"As for resources, I have ordered people to prepare enough treasures."
Xingchen raised his hand and waved, and an exquisite spatial ring floated to Elena's front.
"This contains Origin Pearls, crystallized insights into laws, and numerous secret techniques."
The ring floated in front of Elena.
"Don't let worldly affairs interfere with your cultivation."
Xingchen's voice carried a hint of sternness.
"I hope you can break through to immortality soon."
Elena accepted the ring.
"Palace Master."
A determined look appeared in her eyes.
"Elena will certainly live up to your expectations."
Xingchen nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the other kings: "You must also do your best to assist Elena in her cultivation."
To be honest, he had ulterior motives towards Elena. Elena's talent was actually quite average. If she hadn't followed him, it would have been a question whether she could have broken through to the Domain Lord or World Lord level.
However, things are naturally different with the help of the stars.
Even if you pile them up, the stars will pile them up to immortality for her.
After all, he was his first subordinate.
"My subordinate understands!"
All the kings responded in unison.
Xingchen withdrew his oppressive aura and swept his gaze over the crowd: "Remember, the foundation of Xingchen Palace lies not in its industries, but in its strength. Only the strong can stand firm in this universe."
He stood up, his silver-white robe fluttering even without wind: "We'll be departing in two months. Get ready."
"Yes!"
The other kings respectfully withdrew, and soon only Xingchen and Elena remained in the hall.
Elena hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Palace Master, you are going to the outer battlefield this time."
"worry about me?"
Elena nodded.
“Our Star Palace is currently at the height of its power, so there is absolutely no need for you to go to the outer battlefield to obtain resources.”
Xingchen shook his head.
"I'm not after resources; I don't even care about those poor wretches in the extraterritorial battlefield."
Xingchen's lips curled into a slight smile.
"I'm going to fight. Don't worry, even a cosmic master might not be able to do anything to me."
He raised his hand and tapped lightly, and a ray of starlight entered Elena's brow: "This is a crystallization of laws I purchased; it should be of some help to you."
Elena felt as if countless profound laws and information had suddenly flooded her mind, leaving her momentarily dazed.
By the time she came to her senses, Xingchen's figure had already disappeared from the hall, leaving only a faint ripple in space.
"You must come back safely."
Elena gripped the spatial ring in her hand, her purple eyes flashing with determination.
She knew that she had to break through to immortality as soon as possible in order to live up to the Palace Master's expectations, keep up with the Palace Master's pace, and follow her forever.
Half a month flies by in a blink of an eye.
Xingchen sat cross-legged in the cultivation room, his body radiating a faint starlight. He was familiarizing himself with every ounce of the power of the Immortal Divine Body, gaining complete control over the vast divine power spanning billions of kilometers.
"drop--"
Suddenly, the intelligent computer emitted a notification sound.
Xingchen opened his eyes, a sharp glint in them. He raised his hand and tapped the virtual screen; the Chaos City Lord's email was prominently displayed in the chat:
The treasure is ready; proceed to the City Lord's Mansion immediately.
Concise and clear, this is exactly the style of the Chaos City Lord.
"It's finally here."
Xingchen rose, his silver-white robes fluttering even without wind. He took a step, and the space rippled like water; the next moment, he appeared outside the city lord's mansion.
"teacher."
Standing outside the hall, Xingchen respectfully bowed.
"come in."
The voice of the Chaos City Lord came from inside the hall, and the door opened silently.
As Xingchen stepped inside, he saw three treasures radiating terrifying energy floating in the center of the hall, each causing the surrounding space to distort slightly.
"These are the three most precious treasures I have chosen for you."
The Lord of Chaos pointed to the first item, a longsword that was entirely crystalline, with what appeared to be a flowing river within its blade: "The Luo River Sword, a high-grade offensive treasure."
He then pointed to the second item, a silver battle armor with countless law-based runes flowing across its surface: "Silver Ruins Armor, a high-grade defensive treasure."
