Chapter 1317: Chapter 528: An Unexpected Gain (Double-Length)
The Left Protector, along with two eighth-tier elders and thirty elites, stepped onto the Huweng Giant Bird, which rose into the sky with a roar from Blood Moon City.
The seventh-tier Huweng Giant Bird was indeed extraordinary, with a back as wide as a grand hall. Seating over thirty people was still sparse.
Xu Jin estimated that it could easily accommodate five hundred people without any issue.
The speed was not slow, comparable to a seventh-tier middle period expert.
With just a glance, Xu Jin, Qi Shanye, and Mo Ji dispersed, each starting to cultivate within their group.
Four people were selected from the Judicial Hall, but Xu Jin was the only one from the Blood Raven, with no acquaintances nearby. Xu Jin simply began cultivating on the spot with crossed knees.
Two hours later, Xu Jin suddenly sensed movement among the cult members beside him. In an instant, he opened his eyes to see many members standing up, gazing into the distance.
At the end of the view, a giant city with a style starkly different from Blood Moon City appeared in everyone’s sight.
Most striking was a golden arched horn-like structure that seemed to pierce the sky.
At first glance, it was a pillar that truly held up the heavens.
The golden horn constantly magnified in Xu Jin’s eyes. At its center, circles of architecture rippling outward like waves.
Each circle’s style and features varied distinctly, differing in color and shape.
It felt as if Xu Jin had entered an underwater world.
This was the ancestral city of the Eight Factions Royal Court.
Whether out of formality or intimidation, everyone landed outside the city and walked into the city to visit King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang.
From a distance, Xu Jin sensed a terrifying aura far stronger than an eighth-tier peak. The aura was restrained yet incredibly powerful.
Especially when sensing with the Mingji Star Pattern, the aura felt like a Great Sun hanging in the sky.
Xu Jin instantly understood.
The terrifying aura he sensed a few days ago after assassinating the Special Envoy and Purple Wing King in the wild must belong to the figure before him.
Ninth-tier aura.
Xu Jin knew who it was - the King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang.
When the Left Protector took Xu Jin and the others to meet the King of Eight Desolates Ju Zhang, Xu Jin fully activated the Guicang Star Pattern.
He’d met Ju Zhang twice before, although each time separated by the Altar Sky Road. He worried Ju Zhang would remember his aura, recognize him, and become suspicious.
If that happened, it would surely become chaotic.
Here, everything might turn upside down.
Xu Jin only felt a sharp gaze sweep over him without stopping, which slightly eased his mind.
But Xu Jin already regretted.
He regretted not having deduced the Guicang Star Pattern and Concealing Star Pattern that could hide and suppress his aura these years.
Currently, both Star Patterns were at the middle of the fifth tier.
His previous thought was that the Invisibility Star Skill was usable as long as it could be activated.
Even in daylight, staying within shadows at the corner could utilize it.
But now, Xu Jin suddenly realized the value of deducing these two Star Patterns.
The voice of King of Eight Desolates Ju Zhang suddenly rang out.
"You are all the elites of my Eight Factions Royal Court. This time we open the Limit Breaking Secret Realm to help you break through and swiftly elevate your cultivation level.
Remember, anyone serving the Eight Factions Royal Court will not be disadvantaged by us. We can solve all troubles for you!
This is the promise of this king!"
Although Ju Zhang’s words were general, they carried implications. Listening to this, Left Protector Fan Kai furrowed his brows. After Ju Zhang ordered to take those entering the Secret Realm to the entrance, Left Protector Fan Kai stepped forward to offer advice.
"King, before my departure, my sect hierarch specifically instructed one matter. I ask the king to grant it."
"Your sect hierarch’s instruction? Let me hear it," Ju Zhang smiled.
"King, my sect hierarch said he trusts the king, but in Blood God Sect’s rise, we’ve made many enemies within the Eight Desolate Clan. The elites entering the Secret Realm are all key members of our Divine Sect, and losing any would be a significant loss.
So, the hierarch instructed us to keep watch at the Secret Realm entrance to prevent any eighth-tier figures from sneaking in to commit atrocities while the king is absent. We ask the king to grant this." Fan Kai spoke.
"This... does anyone dare defy the orders of this king?" Ju Zhang’s expression suddenly turned cold.
Left Protector Fan Kai remained silent, pursing his lips in insistence.
Elder Ju Song of Eight Factions laughed, "Protector Fan is unaware that our clan prohibits eighth-tier entries into the Limit Breaking Secret Realm!
This Secret Realm helps sixth-tier and seventh-tier elites break through and elevate their realm. However, allowing eighth-tier entries would damage its essence, even destroy it.
So Protector Fan can rest assured, no eighth-tier will be allowed in.
The danger comes only from oneself!
And our king intends to boost the strength of the Eight Desolate Continent for the impending war."
"Subordinate understands."
After saying only four words, Protector Fan still pursed his lips, insisting.
Clearly, he wouldn’t relent without agreement.
After a while, the King of Eight Desolates Ju Zhang coldly smiled, "Your sect hierarch is quite cautious.
If you wish to keep watch, then keep watch at the entrance."
"Thank you, King."

Xu Jin and his group were brought before the towering golden horn structure. Sixty alien race members awaited there, and with Mingji Star Pattern scanning over them, Xu Jin understood the situation of these alien races.
Among them, twenty-five were peak of the ninth layer of the seventh tier, twenty were middle to late period of the seventh tier, and only fifteen were peak of the ninth layer of the sixth tier.
