Chapter 304
The next morning.
The sky was still gray and hazy, but the entire Saint Han City had already fallen into a hubbub.
Countless people got up early and rushed to the Temple of Heaven, wanting to get a better position.
The Temple of Heaven was the place where the royal family held ceremonies and ceremonies. Today, the birthday of the Profound Secrets Empress was also held here.
Zhao Mu finished a night of meditation and went out with Xiang Ningbing, who was already dressed up.
The Temple of Heaven was right next to the royal palace and could be reached by walking for a while.
At this time, the royal palace was quite lively. Cultivators from various sects had gathered. There were many masters as far as the eye could see. Zhao Mu even sensed the aura of the strong in the Tribulation Plane, not including those who deliberately hid their aura.
With Zhao Mu's cultivation in the Voiding Realm and a disciple in the Nascent Soul Realm, he was nothing in the crowd.
But no one dared to look down on Zhao Mu.
The moment he appeared, several ministers came to greet him and opened a separate passage for Zhao Mu to show their respect.
"Who is this guy? He's only in the Voiding Realm, but Prime Minister Wang came to greet him personally."
"Prime Minister Wang is an important minister of the imperial court and one of the confidants of Empress Providence. He's also a cultivator in the Ninth Heaven of the Tribulation Stage. He used to be one of the geniuses of the human race and was once in the limelight. A distinguished guest who can be received by him must have a special background."
"You're all outdated. Don't you know Young Master Zhao Mu?"
“ Zhao Mu！
He's Zhao Mu! "
"I heard that this person is known as the number one Heavenly Talent of the Human Clan. He killed a Celestial Being of the Demon Clan with his cultivation in the Voiding Realm. I thought it was just a rumor. I didn't expect him to be real."
"I don't know if Zhao Mu killed a Celestial Being or not, but he's indeed the Prince of the Saint Prime Devil Sect. You've lived on the plains for a long time and don't know what's going on in the Demons Forest. The Devil Sect's development momentum is quite fierce now and it's very likely to become the sixth Holy Land of the Human Clan. Zhao Mu has absolute control over the Devil Sect. How terrifying do you think his status is?"
"Tsk, no wonder Wang Xiang had to lower himself in front of Zhao Mu. This identity is indeed tough."
"You guys don't know, right? Zhao Mu is even more famous in the Demon Race. It's said that he was chatting and laughing with the Azure Dragon Sovereign in the Dragon Domain. He had clearly killed many experts of the Demon Race, yet he was able to walk out of the Myriad Demon Forest unscathed. This isn't luck, but true ability."
Zhao Mu heard many people talking about him. Their gazes were either curious, amazed, or fearful.
It could be expected that Zhao Mu's reputation had basically spread among the human race. At present, it seemed that there were more praises than slander.
This was a good thing. The higher Zhao Mu's reputation in the human race, the easier it would be for the Devil's Sect to recruit human elites.
Currently, most of the disciples of the Devil Sect were from the Demon Clan. If he wanted to maintain the balance, he had to recruit more human cultivators.
Let's not talk about this for now.
"Sect Leader Zhao, please."
After exchanging greetings with Zhao Mu, Prime Minister Wang set off for the Temple of Heaven.
Zhao Mu didn't correct the title of Sect Leader. After all, Tang Qing had basically retired to the second line. He cultivated in seclusion every day and didn't pay attention to the affairs of the sect for a long time. It wasn't wrong to say that Zhao Mu was the Sect Leader of the Devil Sect.
Not long after, everyone moved to the Temple of Heaven. The officials had already arranged everything properly. Zhao Mu was naturally elected to the first position. He was going to be the first to congratulate Empress Xuan Ji on her birthday.
However, it was still early. The celebration ceremony was still being held. They still needed to worship the heavens and ancestors. After that, it would be the congratulatory segment.
Zhao Mu was not interested in this kind of solemn occasion, but in this kind of big environment, she could only pretend to watch. Secretly, she was playing a little game with her little disciple. Her little disciple's heart was beating faster, but she had to force herself not to blush, afraid that others would notice.
Zhao Mu waited until the end of the ceremony. Just as he was about to take a break, the elders of the various sects came up one after another to curry favor with him.
They were all elders of the Holy Land, true disciples, and all of them were Tribulation Transcending experts. They were powerful and had deep backgrounds. Zhao Mu could only patiently chat with them.
No matter what, it was still a network that might be useful in the future.
When an elder of the Medicine God Hall came to talk with Zhao Mu, Zhao Mu suddenly remembered something and told him about the medicine corpse he encountered in the Demons Forest.
The medicine corpse could find treasures and was really good stuff. Moreover, the medicine corpse contained the medicinal power of the Soul Cleansing Flower.
Previously, Jin Fei said that alchemy grandmasters could extract medicinal power from medicine corpses. Zhao Mu had tested it after breaking through to grandmaster.
Other medicinal powers were fine, but the Soul Cleansing Flower's medicinal power was too strong. With his current methods, it was very difficult to completely extract the medicinal power of the Soul Cleansing Flower. He would probably have to break through to grandmaster to have a chance.
So Zhao Mu planned to ask the elder of the Medicine God Hall. After all, they were professionals in this field.
"Medicine corpse?"
Hearing Zhao Mu's words, the elder of the Medicine God Hall fell into deep thought.
He was the second elder of the Medicine God Hall. His name was Yao Danzi, and he was quite famous in the alchemy world of the Immortal Martial Continent. He was one of the best.
Yao Danzi said, "Young Master Zhao, my Medicine God Hall has produced many amazing alchemists, but many of them went astray, lost their dao hearts, and became demons. This medicine corpse is the beginning of their demonization. Conservatively speaking, there are at least eight hundred, if not a thousand medicine corpses from the Medicine God Hall. It's too difficult to check their identities, and even if the results are found, it's not a good thing. They've already fallen and are not qualified to return to the Medicine God Hall. If Young Master Zhao doesn't find it troublesome, please help my Medicine God Hall deal with this medicine corpse."
Deal with it?
Didn't the Medicine God Hall know that medicine corpses had the ability to sense treasures?
Or could it be that the medicinal corpse he obtained was actually an exception?
It was a rare breed.
Zhao Mu thought for a moment, but he didn't explain too much. He nodded and agreed.
As for the method of extracting medicinal power from the medicine corpse, Zhao Mu didn't ask much.
In any case, he didn't need to use the Soul Cleansing Pill for the time being, so he wasn't in a hurry.
After receiving a few more guests, it was finally time for Lady Providence to take the stage.
Zhao Mu couldn't help but look up at the Temple of Heaven.
Zhao Mu was quite curious about the legendary Profound Secrets Empress.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed above the Temple of Heaven. A huge golden pillar of light shot up into the sky and turned into streams of light that covered the entire Saint Han City. It was like a huge cover that covered the entire city.
Amidst the golden light, a lofty figure slowly walked out.
Just as Zhao Mu was engrossed in watching, he suddenly heard Jin Fei's voice.
"Son-in-law, something doesn't feel right. I can sense the aura of the Great Immortal Subduing Array being activated. This is a sealing magic array that only exists in the Immortal Plane. Once activated, not even a True Immortal would be able to escape from the magic array.
Hearing this, Zhao Mu instantly frowned.
What did he mean?
Could it be that they were all trapped in Saint Han City?
Could it be the work of the Empress of Profound Secrets?
But why?
