As the resonant voice echoed throughout the region, everyone looked at the silhouette within the pillar and a starry radiance was circulating around him. It was as if there were mountains and rivers engraved on his robes and pupils as deep as the abyss. Standing there alone, he permeated a towering pressure that made everyone feel revere for him.

“The Great Thousand Palace, Demon Slayer King - Qin Tian...”

When everyone saw that figure, their countenances changed as they exclaimed.

Everyone in the Great Thousand World knew that only the Great Thousand Palace could be known as the strongest force. That’s because that force embraced all lifeforms in the Great Thousand World.

The Great Thousand Palace was akin to an alliance of the Great Thousand World.

The founder of it was the Immortal Emperor.

When the Great Thousand Palace first appeared in ancient times, it united all the forces in the Great Thousand World. Everyone put down their differences and stood together to fight the invasion of the Fiend Clans.

In that war, the Great Thousand Palace’s efforts couldn’t go unnoticed for being able to repel the Fiend Clans. Even today, everyone held respect for the Great Thousand Palace.

Even someone as powerful as the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor had joined the Great Thousand Palace as Elders.

In the Great Thousand Palace, one would require Demon Slayer Points to rise in position, and only by slaughtering a Sky Monarch can they obtain the title of Demon Slayer King. Perhaps it might not be rare in ancient times, but trying to kill a Sky Monarch would mean that one had to invade the territory of the Fiend Clans.

It was something that not even Saint Heavenly Sovereigns would dare to try.

In the past few thousand years, there was only a Demon Slayer King that appeared in the Great Thousand Palace. It was someone who had once stepped into the Fiend Clan’s territories and returned with a kill.

That person was this man, Qin Tian.

Compared to Mu Chen’s status as a Demon Slayer King, Qin Tian’s was genuine, since he obtained his kill after diving into the Fiend Clan’s territory.

And so, when this person appeared, even Maha Tian’s countenance couldn’t help changing with fear in his eyes.

“Brother Qin Tian, this matter is something regarding my Ancient Maha Clan. I believe that your Great Thousand Palace shouldn’t interfere in this matter, right?” Maha Tian took in a breath and asked.

As Qin Tian’s robes fluttered in the wind, he faced Maha Tian and smiled. “Why are you so stubbornly attached to the Primordial Immortal Body? Your clan has not obtained its acknowledgment after so many years, so we can infer from that that you’re not fated with it.”

Hearing those words, Maha Tian’s countenance was unsightly. If someone else said that to him, he would definitely send them flying with a slap. But he couldn’t do that to this figure before him, since Qin Tian was long into the Late Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm. He was someone that ranked amongst the top 10 of the Great Thousand World, someone who’s on the same level as the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor.

If Maha Tian had the Yin-Yang Maha Gourd, he might be able to fight with Qin Tian. However, it was being suppressed in the pagoda, and he would definitely suffer if he fought with a Late Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign.

Naturally, it was mainly because of the Great Thousand Palace standing behind Qin Tian. Although the Great Thousand Palace usually didn’t get involved in the matters on the Great Thousand World, their strength itself was a truth that even made the Ancient Maha Clan have to give face to them.

However, how could he be willing to allow Mu Chen to take the Primordial Immortal Body away?

“Brother Qin Tian, my Ancient Maha Clan has safeguarded the Primordial Immortal Body for so many years. Even without any contribution, we’re entitled to our labor. So how can we allow Mu Chen to take it away?”

Taking a deep breath, Maha Tian’s eyes flickered, “Furthermore, I have already taken a step back and asked him to leave the Primordial Immortal Body at the Ancient Maha Clan for a hundred years. After that, we will not obstruct him from retrieving it.”

Hearing those words, Qin Tian smiled. “Patriarch Maha, I won’t talk meaningless stuff with you. My trip today is due to the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor’s request.”

Maha Tian’s face froze. The Elders of the Ancient Maha Clan also had their faces changed with fear flashing in their eyes.

Facing the Ancient Buddha Clan and Ancient Spirit Clan, their Ancient Maha Clan might be able to grit their teeth and fight. But if the Endless Fire Territory and Martial Realm were dragged into this matter, then not even their Ancient Maha Clan could take it.

Not to mention that their Ancient Maha Clan had once waged war with the Endless Fire Territory. In the end, it ended with Maha Tian’s defeat. If it wasn’t for the Yin-Yang Maha Gourd, their Ancient Maha Clan would have lost their reputation.

But the Flame Emperor was no longer an Initial Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign like before. He has even exceeded Maha Tian and stepped into the Late Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm, becoming one of the supreme powerhouses in the Great Thousand World.

In terms of foundation, the Endless Fire Territory was comparable to their Ancient Maha Clan.

Not to mention that there was also a Martial Ancestor and Martial Realm that weren’t any weaker than the Flame Emperor and the Endless Fire Territory.

Outside the Primordial Immortal City, everyone smacked their lips. They never expected that this incident today would blow up to this level...

Maha Tian’s face was pale, but he was extremely furious in his heart. He initially wanted to make use of their force to suppress Mu Chen, but he never expected to smash himself in the face instead.

The Endless Fire Territory, Martial Realm, Great Thousand Palace, Ancient Buddha Clan, and the Ancient Spirit Clan...

With the five forces joining together, even the entire Great Thousand World would tremble. Not even their Ancient Maha Clan could face such a huge force.

“Brother Qin Tian, are you trying to suppress my Ancient Maha Clan?” Maha Tian’s face paled.

Looking at Maha Tian, Qin Tian’s face turned solemn as he replied, “Patriarch Maha, the Great Thousand World is now facing danger from the Fiend Clans. It’s a piece of good news for our Great Thousand World that the Primordial Immortal Body could find an owner, so I hope that you can consider the bigger picture.”

Hearing those words, Mu Chen’s heart trembled. After thinking about how the Flame Emperor and Martial Realm were trapped within their territories, he felt uneasy in his heart. ‘Are the Fiend Clans going to stage a comeback?’

Maha Tian felt hesitation. At this moment, he knew that it was impossible to retrieve the Primordial Immortal Body. So why not give the other party a stage to descend? If he persevered, only their Ancient Maha Clan would be suffering.

“Since the Great Thousand Palace is involved in this matter, then my Ancient Maha Clan will naturally give you face.”

Finally, Maha Tian opened his mouth and the powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuation around him retracted, before he looked at Mu Chen. “But he has to return the Yin-Yang Maha Gourd.”

Looking at Mu Chen, Qin Tian smiled. “King Mu, it’s better to squash enmity rather than keeping it alive. Since Patriarch Maha has taken a step back, why don’t you do so as well?”

Since Qin Tian has spoken, Mu Chen would naturally give him face and nodded his head. After all, he also did not want to wage war with the Ancient Maha Clan. Although he had the support of the Ancient Buddha Clan and Ancient Spirit Clan, it was too risky, and Heavenly Sovereigns would inevitably fall from the battle. It would surely be a great price for both sides.

Hence, it was naturally good for Mu Chen to take a step back.

Mu Chen turned around and cupped his hands towards the Primordial Immortal Pagoda. “Since this matter has already been resolved, I hope that Senior can make a move again.”

Along with his voice, the Primordial Immortal Pagoda trembled and burst out with a radiance. A black beam flew out and formed into a black and white jade gourd.

Maha Tian immediately summoned it over and he carefully examined it. After seeing that there were no damages on it, only then did he feel heavily relieved.

“It is truly the power that was left by the Immortal Emperor for it to be so powerful, even after so many years.” Looking at the pagoda, Qin Tian sighed. Even with his strength in the Late Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign, he felt revere at the remnant ancient strength coming from the pagoda.

However, after releasing the gourd, the power left in the pagoda started to disappear. It was so much so that there were cracks on the surface of the pagoda.

Looking at this scene, Mu Chen bowed towards the Primordial Immortal Pagoda once again.

Seeing the tense atmosphere being released, everyone inwardly sighed , since it would have been earth-shattering if a fight broke out. The range would be something that not even Heavenly Sovereigns would dare to participate in.

So it was best that the conflict could be resolved.

“Brother Qin Tian, I should welcome you properly for coming to my Ancient Maha Clan. But I can only apologise, since it was a mess today.” Maha Tian felt a fit of anger in his heart, looking at the ruined Primordial Immortal City. He also did not wish to remain any longer, so he cupped his fists towards Qin Tian before disappearing into the horizon.

The Elders of the Ancient Maha Clan also followed.

Facing Maha Tian’s departure, Qin Tian wasn’t bothered. After all, it was natural that the Ancient Maha Clan would feel grievance after being forced to give up on the Primordial Immortal Body.

Furthermore, his trip wasn’t purely for the Ancient Maha Clan.

Waving his hand, Qin Tian looked at Mu Chen before taking a step forth. He instantly appeared before the latter and smiled. “I’ve long heard that the Great Thousand Palace has a new Demon Slayer King, and I’ve finally seen you now.”

Facing a genuine Demon Slayer King like Qin Tian, Mu Chen could only retain his respect. “Senior Qin Tian is speaking too highly of me. You should know the weight of my status as a Demon Slayer King.”

Qin Tian laughed before he responded, “Regardless of the method, it’s your fortune to obtain it. Furthermore, you’re also now qualified to become a Demon Slayer King.”

In the past, it might be impossible for Mu Chen to kill a Sky Monarch. But with the Saint Physique and Primordial Immortal Body, he was comparable to a pinnacle Middle Phase Saint Heavenly Sovereign, and he was capable of slaughtering ordinary Sky Monarchs.

With a smile on his lips, Mu Chen cupped his hands. “No matter what, I have to thank Senior. Otherwise, this incident wouldn’t have been easy to handle.”

Although he wasn’t afraid of Maha Tian, he did not want to drag the Ancient Buddha Clan and Ancient Spirit Clan into this matter.

Waving his hand, Qin Tian sighed, “The moment a battle begins, it would have great implications. So it’s not the time to be fighting amongst ourselves.”

After a brief pause, he continued, “But aside from stopping the war, I have another matter to handle in my trip.”

When he finished, he waved his hand and several golden beans shot towards Qing Yanjing, Futu Xuan, and the Great Underworld Ancestor. There were even three that flew in the direction of the Ancient Maha Clan.

When Qing Yanjing and company received the golden beams, their expressions suddenly turned stern.

“This is...?” Mu Chen’s gaze flickered and he was somewhat astonished. He could sense that it seemed to be a golden invitation...

With a smile, Qin Tian said, “The current you is also qualified to receive one.”

As he spoke, another golden light flew towards Mu Chen from his sleeve.

Stretching out his hand, the golden light fell onto his hand and turned into a golden invitation that laid on his palm.

Looking at it, he saw three ancient words that imprinted themselves into his eyes.
