Peerless Taoist

At the center of the countless stars stood a shining, enormous city.    

It was so huge that it could almost be compared with the stars surrounding it. Anyone who stood in front of it would feel tiny.    

This was the center of the entire primeval universe, the Imperial Capital.    

At this time, in the depths of the Emperor Capital's inner palace, a compass rotated a few times and suddenly broke into two.    

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Court has calculated three times in a row, but still can't determine the cause of the matter. It's only because of the abnormal signs of the heavenly phenomena that we managed to use the Heaven's Secrets to barely calculate that this might have something to do with a star from the lower realms. "    

Beside the compass, a few white robed figures spoke in a low voice.    

"Hmm?"    

A cold snort came from behind the pearl curtain, and the few people in white immediately felt a terrifying pressure fall on their heads.    

The few people in white suddenly felt the pressure on their heads increase several times, and hurriedly prostrated on the ground.    

"Zhen already knows about this matter. Let the Divine Might Marquis come in." A woman's voice sounded.    

Everyone did not dare to be careless and hurriedly withdrew.    

Not long after, the ground in the deep palace suddenly shook, and then a general wearing golden armor walked in with his head held high.    

The golden-armored general wore a Mingguang Armor, and every piece of armor was inscribed with dense dragon marks. He didn't wear a helmet, but a golden crown on his head. Behind him, there was a shining wheel of light rotating. He raised his foot and walked past, his entire body seemed to be enveloped by a dignified and solemn golden light.    

Under this sacred golden light, a cold and noble face faintly appeared.    

This was a handsome man, and his expression was calm as he walked through the inner court of the inner court like he was taking a stroll in the park.    

"Xu Guizong will participate in His Majesty."    

The golden-armored general came to the pearl curtain. The light wheel behind him gradually disappeared, and he said with a solemn expression.    

"I heard that you want to challenge the Nether Realm's Punishment Lord?" Behind the pearl curtain, the Female Emperor's dignified voice sounded.    

Xu Guizong replied with a sonorous and forceful voice, "This official has just broken through to the World Lord Realm and wants to find a powerful opponent to consolidate my cultivation level. I hope that Your Majesty can fulfill my wish."    

The Female Empress said faintly, "It's up to you who you wish to challenge. However, the Nether Realm had recently become restless. Many people were thinking about their old master. Challenging my authority. Take my Dragon Subduing Sword. This time, when you attack... If you fail, don't come back to see me."    

"Yes."    

"In addition, before you go, help me with something. "    

The Female Empress pointed at the broken compass on the ground and said, "There is a star in the lower realm. Recently, something strange has happened, causing a star phenomenon. Go and take a look. If there is any unusual movement, report it to me at any time."    

"This official obeys the decree."    

Xu Guizong respectfully replied, then walked out of the hall step by step.    

The moment he left the palace, a group of low ranking officials immediately surrounded him, flattering him.    

Countless Spiritual Sense fell down. When they saw the long sword in Xu Guizong's hand, some of the Spiritual Sense immediately trembled.    

"Congratulations to Lord Marquis for coming out of seclusion!"    

Countless officials gathered around Xu Guizong, flattering him.    

Xu Guizong gave a cold snort and glanced at the flattering people around him. He did not take them seriously.    

"I heard that Lord Marquis is going to have a decisive battle with the Zone Lord. Lord Marquis's speed of growth is probably second only to the Nether Daolord of the past." An official sighed.    

En?    

Xu Guizong coldly glanced at him, then suddenly slapped the official's face.    

That person was directly slapped to the ground. His head was buried deep in the earth, and blood flowed like a river.    

"Gather the army and go out!" Xu Guizong said in a deep voice, stepping into the carriage.    

The carriage sped away, leaving behind only a group of people who were mocking the officials who had spoken earlier.    

This... idiot.    

The young talent of the Divine Might Marquis had created many miracles when he appeared out of nowhere, but he had never been able to surpass the record that Nether Daolord had set.    

Everyone knew that what the Divine Might Marquis hated the most was hearing the word below Netherworld Daolord.
