Chapter 1088 -1088: Yin Yang Realm Stele
Lin Shen roughly understood what was happening. The Great Divine Officials of the other five Star God Palaces also wanted to know what kind of person might become the Central Heaven Great Divine Official in the future.
Whether this person could become a friend or ally, or perhaps an enemy.
Regardless of friendship or antagonism, there was one prerequisite—the person must be formidable enough.
This strength referred not only to power but also included abilities in managing affairs and interpersonal skills.
Lin Shen looked up some information online and discovered that the Pavilion Masters of the other five Star Constellation Halls had formidable backgrounds.
The current Pavilion Master of the Houtu Star Constellation Hall was quite advanced in age because the Great Divine Official of the Houtu Palace was second only to Shi Zhongqing in age, with a negligible difference in years. This Pavilion Master had held the position for a very long time.
As a result, this Pavilion Master was so old that people nearly forgot his once glorious past. It was merely heard that in his era, this Pavilion Master was virtually synonymous with invincibility at his rank.
Now, after such a long period, no one knew just how strong this Pavilion Master’s abilities were.
He and the other Pavilion Masters were from entirely different generations. Legends even suggested that, based on his strength, even the Great Divine Officials of the other Star God Palaces couldn’t rival him.
“Jiang Xishan.” Lin Shen read the name several times and committed it to memory.
A character like this, if intent on causing him trouble, might be exceedingly difficult to deal with.
Fortunately, Jiang Xishan hadn’t attended the induction banquets for other Pavilion Masters in many years, so it seemed unlikely he’d show up at Lin Shen’s.
The Pavilion Masters of the North District, East District, and West District were also outstanding figures, formidable individuals among geniuses and champions in the Star God Palace. Securing the position of Pavilion Master naturally meant none of them were mediocre.
Just reviewing any of their resumes could leave Lin Shen awestruck. Winning various competitions seemed to be among the least significant of their achievements.
Though they had no direct conflict with Lin Shen, they might simply follow the established formalities. However, Lin Shen paid particular attention to the Pavilion Master of the South District, worrying he might stir up trouble.
Lin Shen had indeed formed a grudge against the South District’s Star Divine Officials; their Acting Great Divine Official died because of him. It’s likely that the South District’s Star Divine Officials deeply resented him by now.
The South District’s Pavilion Master was newly appointed only a few years ago since the previous Pavilion Master was Wu Qing.
After Wu Qing became Acting Great Divine Official, another Pavilion Master was chosen.
Wu Qing remained Acting Great Divine Official and hadn’t officially succeeded because the previous South District Great Divine Official merely went missing rather than being confirmed dead, so Wu Qing was temporarily maintaining the role.
The new Pavilion Master selected by Wu Qing was named “Ji Shisan,” and like Ji Fengyun, whom Lin Shen had previously known, he hailed from the Ji Family.
Unlike Ji Fengyun, who won a beauty contest, Ji Shisan was the true prodigy of the Ji Family.
The Ji Family possessed the Great Emperor’s Scripture, one of the Ten Great Divine Skills, but this scripture could not be cultivated merely by having Ji Family blood.
In fact, for over a billion years, the Ji Family hadn’t produced anyone capable of cultivating the Great Emperor’s Scripture—until Ji Shisan was born.
When he was born, celestial phenomena occurred, and nine True Dragons and the Five Directions Deity descended from the void. At his moment of birth, Ji Shisan bore a Nine Dragons tattoo on his back and seals of the Five Directions Deity on his hands, feet, and forehead—he was inherently capable of cultivating the Great Emperor’s Scripture.
His rise to Pavilion Master was exceptionally well-deserved.
Lin Shen read rumors online suggesting that Ji Shisan had been groomed by Wu Qing, and Lin Shen worried Ji Shisan might seize the opportunity to cause trouble and strike at him mercilessly.
It was said Ji Shisan, though only slightly older than Ji Fengyun, had already reached the rank of Middle Divine Being—and was also a Seven-Star Divine Official.
Some rumors even claimed Ji Shisan had attained the rank of Upper Divine Being but simply hadn’t revealed it yet.
Of course, on this tiny piece of land within the Central Heaven Star Divine Palace, Lin Shen wasn’t afraid of what Ji Shisan might do to him. He was just concerned that losing too badly would affect his reputation and that of the palace.
Lin Shen decided to observe the situation. If Ji Shisan went too far, he wouldn’t hesitate to resort to certain measures.
With some free time, Lin Shen summoned Di Esi and Wei Wufu, planning to investigate the mysterious palace on Yin Mountain Star.
Di Esi and Wei Wufu were already on Yin Mountain Star, waiting nearby when Lin Shen used teleportation to arrive.
“How is the situation? Have there been any new discoveries?” Lin Shen asked Di Esi.
“There’ve been some new discoveries. Inside the palace, voices can constantly be heard,” Di Esi replied.
“What are they saying?” Lin Shen asked curiously.
As Yin Mountain Star was his domain, Lin Shen felt obligated to figure out who was responsible if someone was indeed there.
If they were enemies, he needed to find a way to eliminate them to prevent future disasters.
However, if they could serve him, Lin Shen wouldn’t mind gaining some free labor.
“It’s not too clear… It sounds like they’re saying… ‘Come on… Let’s have some fun…'” Di Esi said earnestly.
But as Lin Shen listened to these words, he couldn’t help feeling they were less serious than Di Esi’s tone implied; yet Di Esi’s demeanor made him doubt.
“Take a rest, and later, lead me there,” Lin Shen said, knowing they hadn’t entered the palace and planning to investigate himself.
“Wei, do you want to rest?” Di Esi asked Wei Wufu.
“No…” Wei Wufu got up and headed out.
Lin Shen and Di Esi quickly followed. Yin Mountain Star’s landscape was endlessly interconnected, its mountains blanketed in gray mist, exuding a heavy sense of gloom.
The mountain walls appeared carved with eerie Yin Ghost Beasts, as if ready to leap out and attack.
Indeed, as Lin Shen and the others stepped forward, menacing Yin Ghost Beasts emerged from the walls, darting swiftly through the mist toward them.
Wei Wufu donned the White Robe, releasing purple energy into the heavens. His mighty Law of Justice displaced the mist within ten steps.
In the mist, the Yin Ghost Beasts emitted blood-curdling howls but refrained from breaking through to engage them in combat.
Listening to the commotion within the mist, Lin Shen felt unsettled. He couldn’t fathom how many terrifying Yin Ghost Beasts were hidden there; the sheer volume suggested by the sounds was hard to imagine.
He reached into his pocket, where the young beast birthed by the No. 9 Subject was napping, which gave him a shred of reassurance.
“Don’t worry. Wei’s Power of Justice is extraordinary, a natural nemesis of these Yin Ghost Beasts. Even Upper Yin Ghost Beasts wouldn’t recklessly provoke Wei,” Di Esi said with a smile, seeing Lin Shen’s wary demeanor.
Though Lin Shen had heard this before, the vast forms lurking in the mist, some as massive as mountains, still made him uneasy.
Fortunately, Wei’s Power of Justice proved remarkable, as none of the Yin Ghost Beasts dared initiate an attack.
The three reached their destination and saw the palace and a stone tablet standing before it.
Sure enough, the tablet bore the large inscription “Netherworld Great Method,” and on its reverse, the words “Yin Yang Realm Stele.”
To Lin Shen, the ominous palace shrouded in mist seemed eerily similar to the famed Yama Palace of legends.
