Martial Lord

The Dragon Clan's Demon Prison had now been emptied, with not a trace of demonic aura left behind. After learning of this, Qing Zhi let out a breath of relief.

A great number of Yimo had been suppressed beneath the Dragon Clan; in the end, they had always been a hidden danger. If an accident occurred, the Dragon Clan would be in danger of being overturned. Now that it had been resolved, nothing could be better.

After a brief exchange, Mu Zi and the others' figures merged into the void. In the next instant, they had already left the Dragon Clan.

"Ancestor Palace Tower."

Where he stood, Qing Zhi gazed at the space where the group had vanished, ripples surfacing in his eyes.

Chaotic Demon Sea, Heavenly Xuan Sea Region.

This was an extremely vast sea region. Even a Life Profound Realm expert traveling at full speed would need several months to cross it.

The Heavenly Xuan Sea Region lay at the center of the Chaotic Demon Sea, and at the same time, it was also the center of the Tianxuan Continent. Thus, it had earned its name.

The fact that it could bear the name "Heavenly Xuan" showed just how special it was.

This sea region was the hub of the Chaotic Demon Sea, gathering experts from all over and presenting a scene of great prosperity.

Unlike other large sea regions, no single faction in the Heavenly Xuan Sea Region could unify it. The situation there was tangled and complex. Because of its special nature, some overlord factions of the Chaotic Demon Sea had all established branch strongholds in the Heavenly Xuan Sea Region.

Recently, however, the number of experts gathered in the Heavenly Xuan Sea Region had surpassed the past and reached a terrifying degree.

Not only factions from the Chaotic Demon Sea, but even experts from the Four Great Profound Domains and even the Demon Domain had rushed over.

In ordinary times, Samsara Stage experts who were rarely seen from head to tail could now be found everywhere, and even Reincarnation Stage figures had appeared, stirring shock.

Some joked that if there were a supreme power capable of wiping the Heavenly Xuan Sea Region away at this moment, more than half of the peak experts on the Tianxuan Continent would be wiped out in one fell swoop.

These experts had all heard some rumors to varying degrees about the "Ancestor Palace Tower" that the Ancient Lords intended to open.

The Ancestor Palace Tower was a secret realm left behind by the legendary Symbol Ancestor. It contained countless opportunities, and it was said that Samsara Stage experts who entered it had a thirty percent chance of advancing into Reincarnation.

This point alone was enough to drive people mad.

Many experts had deliberately come from all parts of the Tianxuan Continent. Even if they could not enter the Ancestor Palace Tower to cultivate, it would still be excellent to behold the bearing of the Ancient Lords.

The Ancient Eight Lords, disciples of the Symbol Ancestor, peak experts within the Reincarnation Stage, the first generation Ancestral Symbol controllers, ancient beings who had guarded all living things during the world-ending calamity.

Every one of these titles filled people with awe.

Amid the crowd that surged like mountains and seas, the atmosphere had already been pushed to its peak.

At last, under the eager gazes of experts from all sides, on this day, five figures appeared in the sky above the Heavenly Xuan Sea Region.

Although no powerful aura spread from them, as they stood there, they seemed to be the center of heaven and earth, drawing every eye.

"It really is lively."

The silver-haired Space Lord took in the scene below and sighed with emotion. The last time he had seen so many experts gathered together was probably ten thousand years ago.

Thunder Lord's brilliant silver eyes looked toward the many experts present, his gaze profound.

"I wonder how many Reincarnation Stage experts will be born this time."

Beside him, Flame Master remained silent. Lord of Darkness was entirely wrapped in black armor and looked somewhat aloof.

Below, there were quite a few experts from factions with long inheritances who recognized several Ancient Lords. At once, they cast over gazes filled with reverence.

As the news spread, everyone's mind shook. Legendary figures had appeared before their eyes, sending waves surging through their hearts.

"Five Ancient Lords."

While sighing in amazement, everyone noticed the white-clad figure standing at the head of the five. When they saw her breathtaking face and peerless bearing, they were all stunned, their eyes filling with blank confusion.

"Which Ancient Lord is that?"

"I don't know."

Some people looked at that vibrant, peerless beauty with astonishment in their eyes. She truly looked far too young, not like some old monster. If she had not been standing together with the Ancient Lords, they would have thought she was of the younger generation!

Moreover, quite a few sharp-eyed people discovered that the several Ancient Lords actually seemed to be faintly taking her as their leader. This discovery left countless people dumbstruck.

Among the crowd, those who had once witnessed the battle at Flame God Hall now had hesitation flickering in their eyes. Although they had already recognized Mu Zi, they still did not dare believe it. It was simply too inconceivable.

"Is it her?"

Tang Xinlian, dressed in a red skirt, looked at that familiar figure in the sky, her eyes filled with disbelief.

They had not met for two years, and Mu Zi had actually transformed and become a legendary figure!

"If Master knew, I'm afraid he'd be hit hard again." Tang Xinlian's beautiful eyes moved as she thought of something interesting.

Not long ago, Mo Luo had finally seized his opportunity and broken through to the Reincarnation Stage in one stroke, stepping into the ranks of the top figures between heaven and earth. At present, he was in seclusion consolidating his realm and had not come to witness this scene.

When he rushed over and saw that Mu Zi, who had once been "evenly matched" with him, had already reached such an exaggerated height, he would probably start doubting his life.

As for Tang Xinlian herself, she had long since given up any thought of comparing herself to Mu Zi. Why make things hard for herself?

Among those present, there were also some experts from the Eastern Xuan Region. When they saw Mu Zi appear together with the Ancient Lords, they were not surprised. Instead, they felt it was only natural.

In the Eastern Xuan Region, Mu Zi was known to almost everyone. Whether it was the world-shaking battle from several months ago or the Martial World that had become part of everyday life, her name had long since spread.

"That is Lord Martial Lord!"

Someone from the Eastern Xuan Region began to proclaim her deeds, his expression excited, unconsciously revealing heartfelt reverence.

Mu Zi had opened the "Martial World" and was the lord of the Martial World. Many people spontaneously called her "Martial Lord."

After the experts from the Chaotic Demon Sea and other regions learned some information from the people of the Eastern Xuan Region, they were all so shocked that words failed them.

That person was actually a figure who had risen in the present age, a legend who could stand shoulder to shoulder with ancient beings, and even surpass them!

The deeds of the Martial Lord were simply too fantastical. If not for so many voices saying the same thing, they would not have dared believe that such an unimaginable existence could exist in the world!

The discussions of the crowd below entered the ears of the people in the sky, giving them a strange feeling.

"Martial Lord, now you're an Ancient Lord too." The corners of Lord of Darkness's lips lifted slightly as she teased.

As everyone knew, the Ancient Eight Lords actually numbered nine.

Reasonable enough.

Mu Zi did not say much. As for the title of Martial Lord, it did not really matter.

At least this time, she had not been mistaken for the Lord of Ice. That was worth taking comfort in.

In fact, Ying Huanhuan was also present at this moment. With the Ancestor Palace Tower opening, no matter the reason, she would not miss it.

If she wished, she could naturally stand together with them.

But Ying Huanhuan had not chosen to do so. Compared to the identity of the Lord of Ice, she preferred things as they were now.

In the sky, Mu Zi looked toward the crowd below and saw Ying Huanhuan gently wink at her, her manner playful.

With a faint smile, Mu Zi withdrew her gaze and said softly,

"Open the Ancestor Palace Tower."
