Within the territory of the Golden Moon Country, outside the Kyoto City.
Spatial Gate, numerous Dao Observation Realm martial artists, each exuding terrifying auras, sat quietly, their breathing steady, their eyes fixed expectantly on the light screen before them.
As time went by, the number of Martial Dao Grandmaster who arrived here has increased from just a few at the beginning to an astonishing dozen or so today.
Such a large number of martial artists at the Dao Observation Realm already constitute a highly threatening existence.
Apart from the hegemonic Federal Nation, no other country on Blue Star can match this.
The Golden Moon Country Kingdom would not normally allow a demigod of this caliber to enter the country.
However, during these past few days, a shocking piece of news broke throughout the Golden Moon Country—
[Huaxia Ye Li, with no inhibitions, single-handedly killed the Immortal Cult Leader of the Divine Dao Sect, as well as five demigod warriors at the Dao Observation Realm!]
Such a record immediately caused a great uproar among the nations!
Countless people were shocked, believing that Ye Li must have entered the Hegemony Realm without anyone knowing, becoming a brand-new Land Immortal.
That's truly incredible!
The people of the Golden Moon Country were terrified, and many even began to march and protest, condemning the brutality of the new Arbiter Huaxia. However, this matter did not resonate with the country's high-ranking officials.
Instead, the entire leadership of the Golden Moon Country was so frightened that they immediately dispatched the country's Martial Dao Grandmaster to suppress the local demonstration overnight.
Although this move made Jin Yue a laughing stock among the nations, as long as Ye Li of Huaxia is not angered, Golden Moon Country can continue to exist.
Under such circumstances, this place naturally became riddled with holes for the demigod warriors.
Given that this place poses no threat whatsoever, it's not hard to understand why their numbers are constantly increasing.
Even the strongest Martial Dao Grandmaster in the Golden Moon Country could not prevent this from happening.
Fortunately, perhaps out of fear of being entangled in the misfortunes of the Golden Moon Country.
Many foreign Martial Dao Grandmaster were well-behaved and sat quietly in this place for several days. They would never go to the Kyoto City before they understood the specific reason why Ye Li took action, just in case.
Even the life of Martial Dao Grandmaster is a matter of fate.
Everyone's cultivation has been arduous, and apart from the demigod warriors of the Federal Nation, no one dares to stand against Huaxia Ye Li now.
"How much longer?"
One of the foreign masters couldn't contain himself and asked someone nearby in a low voice.
The person being questioned scoffed, "What's the rush? The space within a high-level Secret Realm is incredibly vast. Even Land Immortal would need ten to fifteen days to fully explore it, and still wouldn't be able to scavenge even thirty percent of it. It's only been a few days!"
"Tsk, thanks for letting me know."
"It's obvious you haven't been to the Secret Realm often. Instead of worrying about that, you should think about how to strike up a conversation with Huaxia's new Arbiter."
"..."
Amidst the soft murmurs of discussion.
Everyone patiently awaited the appearance of the remaining four representatives from major powers.
The reason there are four representatives is that the Knight King of the Federation Temple rushed out of the Secret Realm two and a half days ago and left without looking back.
Therefore, only the Pope of the Temple and the three representatives of Hanxia Bai Kingdom remained in the secret realm.
"..."
It's not that no one suspected something had happened to the pope.
But the thought had barely crossed the minds of these Martial Dao Grandmaster when they dismissed it, shaking their heads with a chuckle and saying, "How could that be..."
Pope Chris Zhenlin's fame resounded throughout the world.
Even among other Land Immortal, their prestige is far inferior to hers. This is not an empty reputation, but a name earned by the person involved through ruthless means.
Given that martial artists at the Mountain Sea Realm rarely appear in public, it wouldn't be too controversial for this pope to claim invincibility.
That's why.
The possibility of [something happening to the Pope] was not even discussed before it was extinguished from the bottom of everyone's hearts.
Because that's practically impossible!
"... They're out!"
Just then, someone cried out in surprise, stood up excitedly, and looked at the light screen in front of them.
Upon hearing this, many Martial Dao Grandmaster were taken aback. They had originally estimated that it would take at least ten days, so why had it come out so suddenly?
The enormous Spatial Gate trembled, clearly indicating that someone was being teleported!
Many Martial Dao Grandmaster, without even considering the reasons, all stood up and looked expectantly towards the sky.
Alas--
The next moment, amidst the expectant gazes of many, a handsome White-robed Youth appeared from the sky, his black hair flying wildly, as majestic as a god reincarnated!
Huaxia Ye Li!
The Martial Dao Grandmaster present were all excited, looking solemnly at the newcomer. Behind the White-robed Youth, the two representatives of the White Country appeared, but their expressions were unanimously somewhat numb.
They have witnessed far too many magical things these past few days.
So much so that now that he's back in the real world, he unconsciously seems somewhat dazed.
"That's strange..."
Amidst the enthusiastic atmosphere, someone frowned and asked, "Where is the Pope of the Temple?"
"Then it's still to come."
Someone sighed and shook their head, saying with a wry smile, "It seems we'll have to wait a few more days..."
It was rare to see representatives from Huaxia and White Country come out so early, but unexpectedly, they were still delayed by the Pope of the Temple.
Thinking of this, they felt a little dissatisfied, but they dared not curse in their hearts, for fear that the unpredictable Pope would find out.
But just then, the boy's calm voice suddenly rang in their ears:
"The Secret Realm is empty; you may enter now."
As soon as the words were spoken, the dozen or so Martial Dao Grandmaster stood there stunned, their minds going blank for a moment because of this simple sentence.
Is the Secret Realm empty?
What about the Pope of the Temple?
"Well..."
Seeing this, Yevna naturally guessed the doubts in everyone's hearts and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
It's not their fault.
After all, who could have imagined that the powerful Pope of the Temple would die at the hands of Senior Ye?
Yevna quickly composed herself and prepared to explain, "The temple..."
Snap!
The next moment, a crisp snap of fingers broke the daze of the crowd and interrupted Yevna's speech, causing a dozen pairs of eyes to instinctively turn towards a certain spot—
A towering, pitch-black fog burst forth from the sky!
"..."
Ye Li remained calm. Since his Infamy Level urgently needed to be raised, there was no need to hide anything at this moment.
Amidst countless bewildered and helpless gazes, all that could be seen was...
A tall figure swiftly materialized from the dark mist. Her hair was as black as a waterfall, and she had eerie, dragon-like eyes. Her entire being exuded an air of composure.
"Hiss!"
A clear exclamation rang out in the air, and the hearts of many Martial Dao Grandmaster suddenly raced!
It can't be wrong...
The Pope of the Temple! That's the Pope of the Temple!!
Then, amidst countless horrified and stunned gazes...
Chris Zhenlin knelt down before the boy in an incredibly crude manner, her eyes blazing with intense emotion, her soft yet passionate voice resounding throughout the heavens and earth, almost stopping everyone's hearts in their tracks:
"Greetings, my Lord!"
The moment the words left his mouth, the world fell into a deathly silence!
