Chapter 1475 - Chat in the Temple
Chapter 1475: Chat in the Temple
Under normal circumstances, the temple was empty. Everyone living in the Central Holy City knew that.
According to Old Ren, a long time ago, when it was most prosperous, the Central Holy City opened to the Thousand Star City once a year. At that time, tens of millions of humans could come to the Central Holy City to worship the king.
Passing the Heavenly River, there was a temple at the center, which looked a bit like the Temple of Heaven. There were a lot of steps in the square, and this circular temple was a bit big, with three floors of buildings.
Han Fei couldn’t help but ask, “Why do they all have three floors?”
Ren Tianfei froze for a moment. “What else has three floors?”
Han Fei shook his head. “Nothing. I mean, is this where I’ll live?”
Ren Tianfei sneered. “You live here? Don’t you know what you’re like? Don’t you feel ashamed to say that?”
Han Fei said contemptuously, “Why should I feel ashamed? This is my mother’s territory after all.”
Ren Tianfei said proudly, “Whether or not you can become a king is not about inheritance but ability. Although others pave the way for you, you have to become a king first. If Tang Yan becomes a king and takes down the Heavenly Palace one step ahead of you, maybe this will be his.”
Han Fei looked at the sky and said, “Isn’t that thing still there… How can Tang Yan become a king?”
Ren Tianfei shrugged. “That’s the reason. If it weren’t for that thing, do you think they will just sit tight and watch you become a king? Besides, since that thing can stop others from becoming a king, it might also be able to stop you. You have to be mentally prepared for this.”
Han Fei said indifferently, “I’m not in a hurry. I haven’t become a Venerable yet. That thing can stay for a while. When I become a Half-King, I’ll find a way to get rid of it.”
In a sense, the Heavenly Dao Dharma Eye bought time for Han Fei. If it weren’t for the existence of the Heavenly Dao Dharma Eye, could Old Chu, Old Han, Patriarch Thug, and Tang Yan really not become kings?
The two entered the temple.
The bottom floor of the temple was nearly a hundred meters high, with only a statue of the Sea God erected inside. However, unlike all the statues of the Sea God that Han Fei had seen, this statue of the Sea God was sitting, looking dignified and majestic.
Besides, in terms of appearance and expression, this was the first time Han Fei saw his mother when she was a king.
The statue’s long hair fell over her shoulders and fluttered behind her back. There was a golden beam of light that resembled a sword between her eyebrows. Her cheeks were thin and had edges. She looked just like an empress who ruled the world.
Han Fei had seen his mother in the Sea Quelling Painting, but she was just a beautiful woman and didn’t look like a king at all back then.
Ren Tianfei said, “Few people can make it here to pay respects.”
Han Fei frowned and said, “Isn’t becoming a king meant to cultivate well? Why does it need people to come to pay respects?”
Ren Tianfei smiled faintly. “You don’t understand! In that era, the creatures of all races didn’t have much confidence. The king is their faith, their hope. They gave all their faith to the king. Can you understand this feeling? If in such a situation, the king could show his divine skills from time to time for everyone to admire, over time, people gained confidence.”
Han Fei asked, “How much Power of Will can be obtained from that?”
Ren Tianfei said, “It’s all mutual. Power of Will can help kings become stronger, and kings can enhance the confidence of all living beings. No one makes a loss here, but everyone makes a profit, but Power of Will also has a limit. Your mother told me this. As for the specific limit, I don’t know. After all, not everyone can become a king.”
Han Fei and Ren Tian flew to the second floor. While walking, Han Fei asked, “Can’t I become a king without the Power of Will? In this vast sea area, there are thousands of races, but only a few kings can appear, right?”
Ren Tianfei said, “Of course not. There are also differences between becoming kings. Some people walk the righteous Dao of the world and walk the grand path.Becoming a king is just the beginning for them, while some people become kings just because their strength reaches the realm and they manage to pass the king tribulation. To go further? Then they still have to continue fighting and find opportunities.”
Han Fei wondered, “What’s the difference?”
Ren Tianfei said, “If you’re the king of a race, even if you just sit tight and receive people’s worship every day, you can still become an emperor in the end… Oh, do you know what it means to become an emperor? It’s the realm after the king…”
Han Fei said, “I know. You mean one can become an emperor without doing anything?”
Han Fei’s heart trembled violently. F*ck, is there such a good thing in the world? It’s so difficult to become a king, but can someone become an emperor without doing anything?
The old turtle’s voice rang in Han Fei’s heart, “Humph! How can there be such a good thing in the world? In fact, it’s all the same. Becoming a king isn’t that difficult. It’s just because your domain has that big eye guarding it. Otherwise, there might have been more than one king here. Even the old man in front of you can probably transcend the king’s tribulation. What he said may be right, but think about it, can an emperor who has fought his way up be the same as an emperor who has been sitting tight and doing nothing?
Han Fei felt that what the old turtle said made a lot of sense. Even if he could become a king without doing anything, his base wouldn’t be very sturdy. That was just an emperor piled up by Power of Will.
However, the old turtle said, “Of course, there are also benefits. Not every king can become an emperor. Besides, an emperor who was made by faith is very powerful in his own territory. However, once he leaves his territory, his strength may be greatly reduced.”
Han Fei thought for a moment. So this was the reason why Queen Life and the other kings didn’t want to leave their territories?
As they walked, Han Fei saw that the second floor was in a mess. There were many wine jars randomly littering on the ground.
Ren Tianfei said, “Uh… I live on this floor. I don’t have much fun but just sleep and meditate. Let’s go to the third floor… The entrance to the Heavenly Palace is on the third floor.”
Han Fei: “...”
Han Fei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He didn’t expect that Old Ren lived in the temple.
Ren Tianfei seemed to know what Han Fei was thinking and immediately said, “I am the controller after all! Although my strength has not fully recovered, in the past, I was the strongest person below the king. It wouldn’t be a problem for me to sweep through the Thousand Star City alone.”
Han Fei glanced at him contemptuously. “Okay, I’ll believe you. By the way, what’s your injury? I have a great technique that may be able to cure you…”
Ren Tianfei grinned. “Forget it, it’s the Heaven Enlightenment Divine Technique, right? What you walk on is not the Great Dao of Heaven Enlightenment. Its power is not as good as the real Heaven Enlightenment Divine Technique… Besides, you’re just a Half-Venerable, how can you cure my injury? When you become a Half-King, maybe you can use this technique to cure me.”
Ren Tianfei didn’t ask him to, so Han Fei naturally wouldn’t say how strong he was. Just let Ren Tianfen think that he hadn’t embarked on the path of Heaven Enlightenment! When he became a Venerable, he would scare the hell out of him.
On the third floor.
Han Fei saw that the entire floor was surrounded by some golden lines.
Clearly, this was a teleportation array. At least, looking at the level of the teleportation array, the complicated golden patterns and the strange structure, it should be much stronger than the teleportation array in Water-Wood World.
The Heavenly Palace was a place that ordinary people couldn’t reach in the first place. It was hidden in a spatial rift that was difficult to reach.
Furthermore, there was a difference in strength between the Heavenly Palaces.
Queen Life had once said that Yin-Yang, Glazed Glass, Golden Crow, Dragon-Subduing…
From her words, Han Fei felt that the Yin-Yang World might not be low-leveled, or to be exact, very high-leveled. After all, when Queen Life listed these worlds, she didn’t say that it was in random order.
Looking at the teleportation array, Ren Tianfei said, “This Yin-Yang Heavenly Palace is the last test for you. It’s not that we don’t have the ability to clear it, but if we go to clear it, the price we pay might be much greater than yours. That thing is more destructive to us than to you. The stronger we are, the stronger the threat we will be faced. Remember, try not to use your strongest power. That thing is very blind.”
Han Fei was stunned. “Why do I feel that that thing… is alive?”
Ren Tianfei smiled and said, “It’s not wrong to say that. It’s like an eye of heaven, supervising all living beings. Whenever there is anything wrong, it will come out and mess around.”
Han Fei asked one last time, “I never understood why it appeared alone in our Yin-Yang World. Why didn’t it go to other places in the Thirty-Six Immortal Palaces?”
Ren Tianfei looked at Han Fei strangely. “Ask yourself! Do you think it’s against the heavens to steal time?”
The corner of Han Fei’s mouth twitched. That’s true! My mother stole a period of time in the Age of Doom. Heavenly Dao really didn’t notice it at all?
If I were a king and found that someone around me had stolen something from me, would I still trust him?
With this in mind, Han Fei couldn’t help but smile bitterly. “Can that thing be driven away?”
Ren Tianfei shrugged. “I don’t know. I’m just a controller, not a king. I can control the Central Holy City, but I can’t control the Heavenly Palace. It’s useless to ask me about this. You have to find a way by yourself.”
Han Fei chuckled. “Okay, I’ll go by myself.”
Han Fei quickly walked to the center of the array, and spiritual energy surged out of his body. In an instant, a large number of golden lines were activated.
When the golden light flashed, Han Fei’s vision suddenly changed.
What was even more shocking than the change in front of his eyes was that Han Fei felt a terrifying temperature, which was surging at him like a mountain.
“Hiss… Sweet mother of god…”
