Right now, the many experts in the square were also astonished by how strong Fang Xingjian’s subordinates were.
At a different side, a figure shot out toward the highest stone platform like a missile with a bang . It smashed onto the stone platform, sending up smoke and dust.
Looking at the figure in the smoke and dust, the Fourth Prince smiled. “Lilia, you’ve finally returned from the plains. Hmmm? You’ve already reached tier five of the Divine level? Not bad, not bad.”
The person amidst the smoke and dust was Lilia. At this moment, there was an additional expression of determination on her face that had not been there previously. Clearly, her experience on the plains had tempered her martial will.
Looking at the Fourth Prince and the others, Lilia bowed slightly and said, “Sirs, has my teacher arrived? Why is it that he is holding this Divine Treasures Meeting?
“The implication of this meet is too great. Even the Mage Association and Church of Universal Truth will be sending people here. The moment a conflict breaks out, the situation will turn into a mess and will be hard to settle.”
Hearing Lilia’s question, the Fourth Prince sighed. Shaking his head, he said, “To be honest, I’m not for the holding of this Divine Treasures Meeting either. Although our strength has improved tremendously, we’re still a far cry from the 12 Mage Kings of the Mage Association and the many Guardian Kings and the three Saints of the Church of Universal Truth.
“But your Master insisted, thus it’s being held. He should have his own considerations as well.”
The Fourth Prince sighed and continued, “A few days ago, Xingjian called back all of his clones’ powers and proceeded with the last stage of his training in seclusion. However, he’ll definitely return today.”
Just as the few of them were speaking, a majesty aura descended from the sky. Two light pillars—one gold and one black—landed like meteors. Seething martial will radiated out in all directions, as if they were brazenly announcing their existence.
After seeing the two person who walked out slowly from the light pillars, countless people gasped once again.
“It’s the Gold Mage King and the Black Mage King.”
“The people from the Mage Association have come as well?”
“They were involved in the calamity that broke out in the Imperial Capital previously, right? To think that they would still dare to come…”
Looking at the two legends who were both top notch tier five Divine level experts, all the other Divine level experts present wore grim countenances. If they were to find out that both of them had joined Fang Xingjian, they would probably be even more astonished.
However, although the Black Mage King appeared to emit an extraordinary disposition, he was secretly very nervous.
‘Sigh… This is poor timing for the Divine Treasures Meeting to be held. The Red Mage King died in battle and traces of both the Gray Mage King and the Purple Mage King are nowhere to be found. Silver is still guarding the barren land in the north…
‘As for the Chaos Witch, it’ll be good if she doesn’t go against us.
‘Almost all of the remaining Mage Kings have headed to the Western Land…’
At this moment, there was a hint of sorrow in the Black Mage King’s heart. To think that the only battle prowess the magnificent Mage Association was left with consisted of the Gold Mage King and himself…
If the Church of Universal Truth were to know of this, they would probably attack them immediately.
The Gold Mage King’s gaze was complicated as he glanced at everyone present.
‘This time around, Fang Xingjian will be at the forefront. We shall see if he’ll be able to handle the people from the Church of Universal Truth.’
The two Mage Kings did not make another sound after they landed on the stone platform. It was as if they were unwilling to interact with the other people present.
More and more experts appeared. Even the barbaric tribe in the barren lands situated in the north sent representatives to the meeting. They were warriors who wore beast hides, had strong muscles, and had eyes that were filled with ferity. The person in the lead was clearly also an expert at tier three or four of the Divine level.
The many countries under the Church of Universal Truth’s rule had also sent representatives. Many experts from the royal families in the north each stood on different stone platforms.
Time passed by, and even when evening came, there was still no reduction in the number of people in the square. On the contrary, the place became more and more lively with activity as the crowds of people were densely-packed together like sardines in a can.
However, as time passed by, more and more people started to make a clamor, clearly feeling impatient from such a long wait.
Just then, Tyrant and the others raised their heads abruptly and looked toward the sky.
The Black Mage King’s and Gold Mage King’s eyes also lit up as they looked upward.
An unprecedented sense of danger surged in their hearts. It was a threat that could not be concealed in the world, leaving no space to escape despite how big the mortal world was.
The name of an influence flashed in their minds at the same time.
“They’re here!”
At the next moment, hymns rang out, and the sky had unknowingly become covered up by endless stretches of white.
It was as if there were countless female saints or holy spirits singing in the sky. Many magical clouds joined together to form a vast country, and it appeared as if the divine country in the heavens had appeared in the mortal world.
Amidst the myriad of white light, ten figures walked out slowly from this divine country. Overwhelming waves of sacred powers that were vast and boundless like the mountains and seas emitted from their bodies.
The powers of the God of Universal Truth seemed to have instantly filled up every inch of space in the entire Imperial Capital.
Everyone felt as if they had been enveloped by a pure and warm gush of power.
Following this, another wave of overwhelming power was emitted from the ten figures, wrapping around the entire Imperial Capital like a tsunami.
Almost all of the elites in the land had gathered in this place. However, before this boundless power that seemed to cover up the entire sky, the rest of the people—aside from tier five Divine level experts—seemed to be unable to control their bodies.
With the eruption of the ten people’s powers, white glow burst forth from their bodies. They turned into ten gigantic white light figures, surrounding the entire Imperial Capital as if they were watching from the sides.
Light trails that were several tens of kilometers long extended out from their back, floating in midair like pairs of wings.
“Guardian… Guardian… Guardian Kings… A total of ten Guardian Kings?” The Sacred Fire Order’s Patriarch looked at this scene in great astonishment. He could not believe his eyes as he looked at the ten giant light figures that were standing in front of him.
The Fourth Prince’s countenance had also turned pale. “How did things turn out like this? Aren’t the three great Saints of the Church of Universal Truth having an internal strife? Why is it that half the Guardian Kings are all here?”
The Guardian Kings were representatives of the Church of Universal Truth’s ultimate powers after the Pope and the Saints. Each Guardian King had the power to easily wipe out an entire country. They possessed the strongest divine arts and were a nightmare for all countries.
Right now, a total of ten Guardian Kings had appeared in the sky above the Imperial Capital. The effect they brought were astonishing.
It could be said that the many experts who had entered the Imperial Capital in the day appeared extremely weak and helpless before the ten Guardian Kings, regardless if it was Tyrant and the group, the Sea Monarch, the many representatives of the northern barbaric tribes, the members of the royal families in the north, or even the Mage Association.
However, at the next moment, an even more astonishing glow was emitted from the center of the divine country. It was as if the entire world had been turned into a pure white state.
Three faint figures walked out in succession from a light door, and majestic powers seemed to be like the center of the entire universe.
At the sight of the three figures, Tyrant was almost gasping as he said, “The… three…great… Saints…”
