Chapter 2230: Nine Heaven Hall

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Not long later, Fu Zhuo led Su Mo and arrived before a palace.

This palace was situated in the middle of Deep Thousand Hall and it was about a thousand feet tall with thirteen levels.

Numerous stones lined the bottom of the structure, each of them glowing with a light yellow color that showed its rarity.

“Disciple Fu Zhuo seeks a meeting with Palace Master!”

Once he arrived in front of the palace walls, Fu Zhuo bowed and called.

The Palace Master had instructed that all humans who came from the Lower Plane into Ascending Hall had to see him if they wanted to remain in Great Xia Supreme Being Palace.

As such, Fu Zhuo had brought Su Mo to see the Palace Master.

“Come in!”

A light voice rang out and the doors of the palace silently opened.

“Shangguan Hao, let’s meet the Palace Master.” Fu Zhuo took in a deep breath and informed Su Mo.

Fu Zhuo was feeling rather nervous at the thought of seeing the Palace Master. After all, he was only a Grade 1 True Deity disciple of the Deep Thousand Hall while the Palace Master was a Grade 9 True Deity, the strongest person in Deep Heaven City.

Su Mo nodded his head and followed Fu Zhuo into the palace.

He as prepared for the meeting.

Firstly, he had hidden his Unbeatable Power Primordial Spirit and other Fighting Souls in the Devouring Primordial Spirit, leaving behind only the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit.

He had also split the Chaotic Energy in his body and separated half of it into the Five Elemental Dark Force. This caused his aura to change.

Any suspicion that he was related to the Chaotic Tribe would not be good. Even if had the Immortal Chaotic Body, no one would suspect that he was the Chaotic Tribe if his body was filled with Five Elemental Dark Force.

Su Mo had no choice but to do this in order to stay.

If the Palace Master found out he was the Chaotic Tribe, things might change drastically.

After all, it was not suitable for him to enter Chaotic Holy Court at this point in time.

Di Yihun must have some underlings working for him. He might have even cast a net around Chaotic Holy Court already.

The first floor of the pagoda was a large room that was even bigger than a cinema. The interior was clean but the decorations were old.

However, there was no one in the area.

Buzz~~

Right at that moment, the space shifted slightly and a figure instantly appeared in the main seat of the hall.

This man was an average-looking middle-aged man. Wearing a silver robe, the man appeared stern and fierce.

“Greetings to Palace Master!” Fu Zhuo immediately bowed to the middle-aged man when he appeared.

Su Mo also cupped his fists and bowed towards the man. At the same time, his heart jumped in shock. Although, the man was not surrounded by a strong aura, the deep and unreachable aura around the man was terrifying.

“What is it, Fu Zhuo?” The middle-aged man asked llighty. Although he posed the question to Fu Zhuo, his eyes were focused on Su Mo.

There weren’t a lot of men in Deep Thouasnd Hall and the middle-aged man naturally recognized Fu Zhuo as the man in charge of overseeing Ascending Hall.

In that case, the identity of the young man in the hall could be deduced.

“Palace Master, this is Shangguan Hao. He arrived from the Lower Plane today!” Fu Zhuo respectfully informed the Palace Master.

“Mm!”

The middle-aged man surveyed Su Mo and asked suspiciously, “You are a Rank 3 Empty God. How did you come to Deity Plane?”

“Palace Master, I followed a Half Deity senior and broke the Boundary Space to enter Deity Plane. However, it seemed that we ended up at different places.” Su Mo lied.

“Do you think I am dumb?”

The middle-aged man’s face hardened and he coldly said, “The Boundary Space is unique and mysterious. Without sufficient strength, there is no way you could have reached Deity Plane even if someone had accompanied you.”

The Boundary Space of Deity Plane only allowed strong people to pass through. No one could bring a weak person along. Even if the person was hidden in the most powerful Spatial Device, he would also be killed.

“Palace Master, I am not weak. Although I am only a Rank 3 Empty God, my strength is comparable to a Half Deity in the Lower Plane’s. That is how I was able to come here,” Su Mo said in a serious tone. He knew that the Palace Master was knowledgeable and hence Su Mo remained alert.

Upon hearing the Su Mo’s words, the Palace Master nodded slightly and said, “Anyone who comes to Deity Plane from the Lower Plane is a talented person. If you managed to come to Deity Plane while being only a Rank 3 Empty God, you must be a talent among all talents. Tell me what extraordinary powers you have.”

“Palace Master, I am indeed a talent of the Lower Plane and I possess the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit.” Su Mo said in a low voice. He had to display his talent to convince the Palace Master.

With that, Chaotic Light flashed above Su Mo’s head and the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit rose.

Su Mo had hidden the Devouring Primordial Spirit in his mind. Whether or not the Palace Master could sense it would be up to chance.

“Not bad, it is indeed the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit!”

The Palace Master’s light lit up and he continued suspiciously, “Your Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit is refined by Chaotic Energy. Did you practice the arts of the Chaotic Tribe?”

“Palace Master, I cultivate the Five Elemental Dark Force and not the Chaotic Tribe’s martial arts. However, I happened to have a large amount Chaotic Dawn Stones back then and I used it to refine the Primordial Spirit.” Su Mo dismissed the suspicions and said in a calm and collected tone.

“I see!” The Palace Master nodded his head slightly. The Five Elemental Dark Force was connected to Chaotic Energy. It wasn’t wrong of Su Mo to use the Chaotic Energy to refine his Primordial Spirit.

“However even if you have the Great Rotating Sacred Sword Primordial Spirit, you won’t be able to enter Deity Plane. I can sense that you Blood Force is incredibly strong. What Blood Force do you have?” The Palace Master probed.

Su Mo’s heart sank. He had not expected that the Palace Master would be so thorough in investigating him. Yet, Su Mo complied.

“Palace Master, my Blood Force is strong but I am not sure what Blood Force it is myself.” Su Mo replied.

With that, Su Mo activated his Blood Force slightly and in an instant, a bright light reflected from his body.

The light above him was very impure. It seemed golden, yet white and even jade colored at the same time.

Su Mo’s Blood Force was a result of merging with too many different types of Blood Forces. He did not believe that the Palace Master could be able to tell what the constituents of his Blood Force was.

“This Blood Force... is strong.”

The Palace Master stared closely at Su Mo. He took a long time trying to figure the Blood Force out and in the end, he could only sputter out the words that it was strong.

“Not bad! Your talents are very high. No wonder you could come to Deity Plane from the Lower Plane.” The Palace Master smiled. He was not too sure of the situation at the Lower Plane.

However, it was a fact that Shangguan Hao was incredibly talented.

Although there were about a hundred thousand men in Deep Thousand City, there were only a few thousand disciples for Deep Thousand Hall. Each of them were selected carefully from amongst the population.

Shangguan Hao could be considered one of the most talented among the few thousand disciples of Deep Thousand Hall.

Most importantly, he could tell that Shangguan Hao wasn’t a hundred years old yet. At the very most, Shangguan Hao was seventy to eighty years old.

For someone so young to be a Rank 3 Empty God, his talents must be exceptional. The hopes of him becoming a True Deity by the time he was a hundred years old was high.

With that, the Palace Master raised his hand, gathering Origin Energy in his palm to construct a palm sized badge.

This badge was a light grey color and the word ‘Xia’ and ‘Deep Thousand’ were carved on each side of the badge.

“This is the badge of the Deep Thousand Hall of the Great Xia Supreme Being Palace. Keep this with you. From today onwards, you are a disciple of the Side Palace of Deep Thousand Hall!” The Palace Master threw his hand forward and flung the badge towards Su Mo.

“Thank you, Palace Master!” Su Mo caught the badge and thanked the man sincerely.

“Mm!”

The Palace Master acknowledged Su Mo’s thanks before he instructed Fu Zhuo, “Fu Zhuo, bring Shangguan Hao to “Nine Heaven Hall”. That will be his living quarters in the future. Tell him about the rules of Deep Thousand Hall as well.”

“Nine Heavens Hall!” Fu Zhuo jumped in surprise. He had not expected that the Palace Master would look so highly upon Su Mo.

There were a few thousand disciples in Deep Thousand Hall with three elders and a Palace Master. The living quarters of everyone was based on their ranks.

The Palace Master and three elders lived in Dark Pool Pagoda. Lower-ranked disciples lived in pagodas, yards and palaces.

Typical disciples lived in the pagoda while those talented and highly-ranked disciples would live in their individual yards.

Only disciples whom the Palace Master looked highly upon had the qualifications to live in the palace.

There were only nine palaces in Deep Thousand Hall and eight of them were occupied by eight other top disciples. Only Nine Heavens Hall remained unoccupied.

Fu Zhuo was completely surprised. This was no simple matter of living quarters, it showed the Palace Master’s intentions.

Furthermore, there was an incredible array around Nine Heavens Hall that supported one in his cultivation. To the average person, living in Nine Heavens Hall was a privilege.

“Yes, understood!” Yet, Fu Zhuo did not hesitate to obey the Palace Master’s orders.

Since the Palace Master had instructed him, Fu Zhuo did not dare to voice out his thoughts.

However, there were many talents in Deep Thousand Hall who were looking upon living in Nine Heavens Hall. It was a pity that many of them would be disappointed.

If they knew that Nine Heavens Hall was occupied by Shangguan Hao, many people would be dissatisfied because Shangguan Hao’s cultivation rank was too low.

“Mm, go on!” The Palace Master waved his hand as light flashed across his body and he disappeared.

“So fast!” Su Mo exclaimed in surprised. he could tell that the Palace Master had not used a Space Ultimacy or any other Ultimacies. The Palace Master’s speed was incredibly fast.

“Brother Shangguan, congratulations!”

A bright smile stretched across Fu Zhuo’s face as he cupped his fists towards Su Mo in congratulation. In his opinion, Su Mo had a smooth future if he was looked highly upon by the Palace master and allowed to live in Nine Heavens Hall.

“Hehe, we are fellow sect members already. Please take care of me senior!” Su Mo had no idea what the meaning behind being allocated to the Nine Heavens Hall was.

“No, it is nothing. Brother Shangguan, please take care of me in the future.”

Fu Zhuo wore a smile as he waved his hand over and beckoned, “Go, let me bring you to Nine Heavens Hall.”

By this point, Su Mo was feeling slightly confused. Why had Fu Zhuo suddenly become so polite? However, Su Mo did not think much about him and nodded his head.

With that, Su Mo followed Fu Zhuo to leave the pagoda and head deeper into Deep Thousand Manor.

Deep Thousand Manor was large but there were not many people in it, thus it had a peaceful vibe around it.

“It is a good place to start!” As he walked, Su Mo thought to himself.

Since things were peaceful then, he could rest assured in his cultivation and try his best to become a True Deity within twenty years.

“Supreme Being? What cultivation rank is that?” Su Mo pondered to himself as he made up his mind to ask Fu Zhuo about that later.

Great Xia Supreme Being Palace must have a Supreme Being for its leader. Su Mo wondered how far he was from becoming a Supreme Being!
