Chapter 464: Chapter 263: Stepping Into the North Magnetic Divine Palace to Question True Monarch Yuanzhi!

But at this moment, the enthusiasm of the disciples and elders of the North Magnetic Divine Palace was not as high as it had been at the beginning.

Some disciples even began to yawn, feeling a bit sleepy.

However, just then, an unexpected announcement echoed suddenly, resonating throughout the entire North Magnetic Divine Palace.

"From the North, Beihua State... the First Supreme Elder of the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect, Qingyun True Monarch, and the Second Supreme Elder, Qi Chuan True Monarch... bring... a Tier Four Lower Grade Spirit Grass to celebrate the nine-hundredth birthday of our North Magnetic Divine Palace’s Supreme Elder, True Monarch Yuanzhi..."

The disciple announcing it stuttered, clearly somewhat frightened.

And within the North Magnetic Divine Palace, all the disciples who heard this announcement were wide-eyed, full of incredulity.

"Beihua State? Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect? Did I hear that right? Isn’t this a Nascent Soul Major Sect? They actually came to our North Magnetic Divine Palace?"

"Moreover, the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect seems to be a Dual Nascent Soul sect, and both True Monarchs have come, hissing... our North Magnetic Divine Palace has this much face?"

"Tier Four Lower Grade Spirit Grass, what do these resources even look like? I’ve never seen them before..."

Within the North Magnetic Divine Palace, the noise of disciples discussing erupted.

All the disciples were astonishingly excited and highly enthusiastic.

However, many elders of the North Magnetic Divine Palace turned extremely grave upon hearing this announcement.

Knowing some insider information, they clearly did not consider this a good thing.

When unusual things happen, there is always a sign. This might be a portent of a major disturbance...

However, since it concerned the descent of two True Monarchs, it was not something these Core Formation elders of the North Magnetic Divine Palace could handle. They could only open the mountain gate and cautiously welcome the two True Monarchs into the sect.

Qi Chuan casually tossed a gift box containing a Tier Four Lower Grade Spirit Grass to a disciple guarding the mountain gate. Then, with a faint smile on his face, alongside Qingyun True Monarch, he stepped through the mountain gate and entered the North Magnetic Divine Palace.

Wherever they looked, the disciples of the North Magnetic Divine Palace were all terrified.

And those Core Formation elders of the North Magnetic Divine Palace, although equally trembling with terror inside, still had to muster their courage to step forward and welcome them, their faces turning as pale as paper as they led Qi Chuan and the others toward the main hall.

Throughout the process, numerous excited and proud gazes from the disciples of the North Magnetic Divine Palace followed them, who were unaware of the purpose of Qi Chuan and Qingyun’s visit. They took pride in witnessing the two True Monarchs in person.

And when Qi Chuan and Qingyun reached the Palace Square in front of the main hall, what should have been a boisterous and lively scene during the grand ceremony was instead eerily silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

At this moment, some of the Core Formation elders nearby, upon finally arriving before the main hall, felt as if they had received great salvation, as if seeing their savior.

They immediately withdrew without delay, directly ushering Qi Chuan and Qingyun into the main hall.

Within the main hall, numerous seats were set up, and each seat was occupied by a prestigious, powerful Core Formation True Master.

At this moment, these Core Formation True Masters gave Qi Chuan and Qingyun a strange look, then quickly retracted their gazes, not daring to look more.

Most of these people were also unaware of the inside story.

However, as Core Formation True Masters, they were all astute individuals, able to sense some anomalies from the atmosphere, choosing to look at their noses, noses at their hearts, unwilling to get involved between two Nascent Soul Major Sects.

These two Nascent Soul Major Sects, one was nearby, the only Nascent Soul Major Sect in Nanhua State.

The other was the foremost sect of Beihua State, a Dual Nascent Soul sect.

They couldn’t afford to offend either.

Really couldn’t afford to.

Qi Chuan cast a glance among these Core Formation True Masters.

The Core Formation Supreme Elders of the Valley of Myriad Beasts, the Profound Pill Sect, and North Magnetic Mountain were all present.

Of course, there was no one from the Wind Moon Sect.

"Report to the Supreme Elder, the First Supreme Elder of the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect from Beihua State, Qingyun True Monarch, and the Second Supreme Elder, Qi Chuan True Monarch, have arrived..."

The Core Formation Elder of the North Magnetic Divine Palace who ushered them in bowed to the most prominent position in the grand hall, said his piece, and then quickly retreated.

Qi Chuan withdrew his gaze from those Core Formation True Masters and turned his eyes toward the high seat in the main hall.

There was only one seat set up on the high seat in the main hall, a grand purple-gold chair that exuded an aura of majesty and dignity.

Behind the purple-gold chair was a vast jade wall, engraved with countless landscapes, walking dragons and snakes, connecting the heavens and the earth, with the mountain gates of the North Magnetic Divine Palace standing upon it.

True Monarch Yuanzhi, expressionless at this time, sat with dignity on the purple-gold chair, the grand landscape jade mural behind him.

He appeared to be a man in his forties, wearing a luxurious red birthday robe adorned with mysterious patterns, his face chiseled and imposing, sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, and a pair of gray pupils that seemed lifeless, emitting an eerie wave that made the surrounding space appear distorted.

Sitting there alone gave people a mysterious, sinister, and dangerous feeling.

Sitting on the purple-gold chair, True Monarch Yuanzhi gave Qi Chuan and Qingyun True Monarch a glance, remained silent for a moment, then calmly said: "I wasn’t expecting the two True Monarchs from the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect to visit us, and was unable to greet you properly at a distance. Please forgive me, someone grant them seats!"

Immediately, someone moved to set up two additional seats in the main hall.

"No need for seats." Yet Qi Chuan waved his hand, and those people were immobilized.

Soon after, True Monarch Yuanzhi made a gesture, and those people regained movement. He waved his hand to dismiss those pale-faced disciples: "You can leave."

The disciples hurriedly retreated in great fear.

"As for the matter of celebrating the birthday, a Tier Four Lower Grade Spirit Grass has already been presented to your sect as a gift, and thus our business here is concluded. Senior Brother Qingyun and I do not wish to stay longer, we only want to ask two questions and leave," Qi Chuan said in a calm tone to True Monarch Yuanzhi.

"You, a Dual Nascent Soul sect, suddenly coming to our North Magnetic Divine Palace, may have come purportedly to celebrate my nine-hundredth birthday, but truly to make inquiries and seek accountability, correct?" True Monarch Yuanzhi said in a deep voice.

Qi Chuan neither confirmed nor denied: "You could say that."

How domineering is the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect!

Within the grand hall, the numerous Core Formation True Masters sat in silence, the atmosphere was heavy and tense, hearing this made them even more startled inside.

In their eyes, the North Magnetic Divine Palace, being a Nascent Soul Major Sect, celebrating True Monarch Yuanzhi’s nine-hundredth birthday, meant that almost every Core Formation Influence and Foundation Establishment Influence in Nanhua State came bearing lavish gifts to visit and congratulate, reaching the utmost level of status and immense power.

Yet, they never expected that even such a powerful entity as the North Magnetic Divine Palace would face a situation where someone could step upon their mountain gate and demand accountability.

Moreover, it seemed as if True Monarch Yuanzhi was slightly apprehensive, for these visitors were no ordinary beings and were also extremely formidable, being a Dual Nascent Soul sect. Perhaps even if a conflict erupted in this grand hall, the host True Monarch Yuanzhi would not have the upper hand.

"It truly is a case of celestial beings battling and the innocents suffering, can we please leave first..."

All the Core Formation True Masters lowered their heads, many with hearts full of woe.

They originally thought this was a simple birthday celebration, where they only needed to present gifts to show respect for the North Magnetic Divine Palace and they could safely complete their task and return to their sects or families, possibly even bringing back some return gifts.

However, they never imagined they would encounter a terrifying spectacle of confrontation between two Nascent Soul Major Sects.

In a moment, these Core Formation True Masters had already conceived thoughts of retreat.

But, even with these thoughts, without any indication from the Nascent Soul True Monarchs on either side, they dared not make any unusual commotion, not even uttering a common word aloud, lest they provoke the wrath of both True Monarchs.

"Just don’t let them fight, just don’t let them fight..."

These people could only silently pray in their hearts with tears unseen.
