Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 853 – War Machines

The existence of the underground palace was of unknown value to the commoners. However, to the Saint King, this walace that no one else could understand. The closer An Zheng got to the secret, the more he felt that this place was built for Chen Wunuo alone, and not for the common people of this world.

Back then when he pulled the four Marshal of the Sanctuary out of the four directions and into the Royal Tomb, it might not have been just the beginning, but rather, things had already reached a point of materialization. At the beginning, there was no need to muster up such a large force. Only when the results came out would they be able to strengthen their protection. And now, even the Marshal of the Sanctuary, the pavilion master of the Star Observation Pavilion, and even that Chen Zhongqi who had come back to life, were all present here.

In fact, An Zheng was not very familiar with the four Marshal of the Absolute Monarch Sanctuary. At that level, everyone would be like a god to ordinary people. But in fact, even if they were from Holy See, they had to deliberately keep their distance from other important figures.

Relatively speaking, An Zheng was the one that he was more familiar with. He was half a madman, a madman who could challenge him no less than ten times a year. But exactly because the An Zheng at that time was almost peerlessly powerful, Mu Jianli would not use his mind perception to sense such things, because it was completely meaningless to the An Zheng at that time.

The remaining people could even be said to be of different generation from An Zheng, even if it was the Sima Pingfeng who was considered the youngest, he was still a lot older than An Zheng. However, there were only three people who were familiar with the Great Western Region’s Marshal of the Sanctuary. They were Mu Jianli, Ye Tianlian and Sima Pingfeng. There was one that was even more mysterious, so mysterious that no one knew if this person actually existed or not.

An Zheng couldn’t figure out what Sima Pingfeng meant. Why would he let him in just like that?

Yuwen Wushuang glanced at An Zheng, his eyes revealing a strange expression.

“What do you mean?”

An Zheng asked.

Yuwen Wushuang: “I don’t know him.”

“I don’t know him either.”

“But he didn’t seem to be talking to me.”

“Could it be towards me?”

Yuwen Wushuang did not continue speaking and only walked out. The more An Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. He chased after his and asked, “What exactly do you mean? You … What are you thinking! ”

Yuwen Wushuang still did not speak. An Zheng felt that if he and this woman stayed together for a few more days, they might be able to fight.

When the two of them reached the door, they realised that Sima Pingfeng waeally good person and actually opened it. The two of them stood there hesitating, whether they should go in or not. If he went in and closed the door, he wouldn’t be able to run away even if he wanted to. If you didn’t go in, they would have already discovered you and put on a show of allowing you to go in.

“We seem to have lost.”

An Zheng sighed: “Why did I lose.”

Yuwen Wushuang nodded, “Yes, I noticed it too. Whether we went in or not, we lost. Senior Sima is indeed powerful. He set up a chess game for us. If we go in, we’ll be locked up and beaten. If I don’t go in, I will be laughed at openly. ”

At this time, Sima Pingfeng walked over regretfully, and stood not too far away from the two of them: “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such an outstanding young man, so I wanted to give you two a chance to go in and take a look.

An Zheng: “It’s not fun to play with, you’ve even won.”

“I only won because I’m older than all of you.”

Sima Pingfeng looked very young, just over twenty years old. However, even he could not remember exactly how old this person was. His catchphrase was, “I’m younger than Ye Tianlian.”

Footsteps could be heard in the distance as a group of important figures appeared with calm expressions. They did not show any signs of anger, nor did they show any signs of surprise. On the contrary, under their calmness, they even had a faint appreciation.

“I knew you’d come.”

Mu Jianli glanced at An Zheng: “Daoist Chen, your curiosity is a little too strong.”

An Zheng took off his mask, and said with some regret: “Then it would seem to be extremely boring.”

Mu Jianli smiled and said, “Speaking of which, it’s not that I knew you would come, it’s just that His Majesty knew that you would definitely come. So we’re just curious about how far you can go. When we made the bet, we said that if Chen Liuxi could walk in front of Sima Pingfeng, we would all lose. ”

“Hmm?”

An Zheng frowned slightly.

“The reason is simple.”

Sima Pingfeng said: “There is only one entrance to this place, and I must sit here and not leave. So no matter how outstanding you are, once you reach my place, it will only be the end. Unless your cultivation base is much higher than mine, otherwise, you won’t be able to enter from me. That’s why we said when we made the bet that the limit was mine. If Chen Liuxi is able to walk in front of me and can’t be stopped before him, or perhaps he can’t be discovered, then Chen Liuxi is already outstanding enough.

Ye Tianlian, who was the second ranked among the Four Great Sacred Masters, smiled and said, “Don’t worry, even I can only make it to this step.”

An Zheng shrugged his shoulders. “But I can’t get ahead of myself.”

The pavilion master of the Star Observation Pavilion, Tan Shanse, who had been standing slightly at the back without a word, looked at An Zheng with interest. After being silent until now, he opened his mouth and asked: “Dao Priest Chen, are you interested in entering my Star Observation Pavilion?”

Everyone turned to look at him, and Tan Shanse laughed indifferently: “Your majesty said, Star Observation Pavilion must recruit talent.”

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

Chen Zhongqi didn’t seem to know about An Zheng’s identity at all, and also seemed to have forgotten the enmity and story between him and Fang Zheng that could not be avoided. He seemed likerson who had never appeared in An Zheng’s life before. At this moment, he was inviting An Zheng to the deepest part of the secret underground palace with his identity as a Great Western Prince.

“After reading it, you will all be disappointed.”

Disappointment?

An Zheng’s biggest disappointment was that Chen Zhongqi was still alive. Back then, when Phoenix Stage Chen Zhongqi took the poison and committed suicide, An Zheng never turned his head back. What he was afraid of, or perhaps was not willing to face, was precisely the fact that he knew Chen Zhongqi did not dare to die. In a sense, An Zheng’s revenge was only a farewell to the past.

But now, Chen Zhongqi had appeared in front of An Zheng, making many things clear. But for some reason, when An Zheng looked at Chen Zhongqi, he discovered that the expression in his eyes was extremely pure, and there wasn’t the slightest bit of difference. In other words, it seemed like Chen Zhongqi really did not know An Zheng. Did he lose his memory? Or was there some unforeseen event?

The Chen Zhongqi in front of him was completely different from the Chen Zhongqi who was familiar with him before, and could even be said to have a brotherly relationship with him. That Chen Zhongqi was passionate, rebellious, and extremely eloquent. He could incite too many people to work for him. But now, this Chen Zhongqi looked reserved, calm, and did not have the slightest bit of pretentiousness, as though he was a completely different person.

“Although very boring, but you will come into contact with the most important secret in this world that cannot be told to outsiders.”

Chen Zhongqi said as he walked, “However, Your Majesty had instructed us that the two of you will become the pillars of the Da Xi in the next few decades or even a few hundred years. Yuwen Wushuang, you are from Yuwen Clan, but your future achievements are definitely higher than Yuwen Guanghan’s. However, Daoist Priest Chen, your achievements may be so high that others will look up to you. ”

Chen Zhongqi giving sucigh evaluation, just happened to explain a problem … He was not familiar with An Zheng. It was an amiable reaction, but it was actually as cold as ice and frost. What he had said was all a noble words, flawless but not sincere. His words were probably just to relay Chen Wunuo’s words, so he did not carry any emotion when he said them.

An Zheng suddenly thought of something... When the news of Chen Zhongqi’s death had just reached the capital, the Divine Empress was infuriated. She did not even hesitate to fall out with the Sacred Emperor and sent someone to the northwest to ask for an answer from Yuwen Clan. The person called Fifth Uncle had already left the Jinling. At that time, everyone predicted that the Northwest was going to be a sea of blood. But in reality, the Divine Empress very quickly changed her mind and summoned Fifth Uncle back. Just the death of the Yuwen Clan’s Patriarch, Yu Wende, allowed the matter of a prince dying in Phoenix Stage to be resolved.

This matter had always been something that the great figures in the Jinling could not understand. An Zheng felt that he was slowly approaching the truth.

This Chen Zhongqi, An Zheng felt that he was not Chen Zhongqi. However, there was another terrifying possibility. The Chen Zhongqi that An Zheng was familiar with in the past, was not the real Chen Zhongqi.

Chen Zhongqi gestured with his hand to open the door, then walked in first. He looked noble and elegant, undoubtedly possessing the pride and conceit of a prince. The person beside him is either the Star Observation Pavilion Pavilion’s main disciple or the Grand Marshal of the Sanctuary. However, amongst these people, he still has the temperament of a real leader.

“His Majesty loves talents, and prefers unscrupulous talents. But to not be formal doesn’t mean that there are no rules … His Majesty can let bygones be bygones, and even order me to show you what you want to see. However, I still want to advise you guys … Be it to your majesty or to Da Xi, you have to respect them. ”

Yuwen Wushuang frowned slightly as the corner of his mouth rose.

Chen Zhongqi still did not have any reaction, it was as if he did not care about their reactions.

There was a long passage by the door. The two sides of the passage were not ordinary walls but mirrors. The passage was at leasundred meters long, and the mirrors on both sides were as big as that. Thus, it was hard to understand what material this was made of. It was so smooth, smooth, and huge. People walked down the aisle, and the mirrors made them look more crowded.

Every person, including the original body, seemed to have three of themselves.

“What Da Xi wants is not peace, but the prosperity of immortality. This prosperity is reflected in people living and working in peace, getting richer and more comfortable. However, the stability of the royal family, as well as those at the higher levels of the Da Xi family, all lay in the stability of the royal family. If it wasn’t for the royal family, if there wasn’t the formation of the various levels of Holy See, then this kind of stability wouldn’t have appeared. ”

Chen Zhongqi’s words were firm and official.

“Therefore, in order to continue the peace of Da Xi and creatrosperous future, from three hundred years ago, the Saint King had been living in peace. He began building the underground palace in five places in the east, south, west, and north that could gather the most heaven and earth’s essence. It was also from that time onwards that Star Observation Pavilion began to prepare for a major event. Every family is involved in this matter, even ordinary people, including those demon beasts and even ordinary wild beasts. ”

An Zheng listened quietly, he did not think that the secret would be revealed in such a way in front of him.

“What is the most powerful and stable foundation of a country?”

Chen Zhongqi’s footsteps slightly paused, he turned around and looked at An Zheng: “Dao Friend Chen, do you know?”

An Zheng replied: “People.”

“No.”

Chen Zhongqi continued to walk forward, with disdain in his eyes: “They are war machines, not necessarily armies and machines. This was because the military might was not permanent. As long as Da Xi’s army hadn’t fought foundred years, their fighting strength would only remain as glorious as paper. Battleships, cannons, various equipment, they are all constantly making progress in their own ways of thinking. Whether or not they are still ahead of the rest of the world, no one knows. ”

“There is only one thing that cannot be surpassed, and it will never change.”

Chen Zhongqi pushed open the door at the end of the passage: “That is the person that gathered the strongest bloodlines of every clan and family to create this kind of person who was specially born for the war.

Behind the door, there wauge crystal hall. The stars could be seen from 360 degrees outside. Outside the crystal hall, there was a lush green forest.

“They’re in here.”

Chen Zhongqi turned around and looked at An Zheng: “You will soon understand the value of their existence.”

An Zheng frowned, an ominous premonition emerging in his heart.
