Chapter 79: The Immortal Dynasty Emperor Sets Out, Nine Dragons Pulling the Palace! Heroes Appear!
"Whose warship is that?"
Seeing such a terrifying mode of travel for the first time, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but blurt out in shock.
"Wait… why aren't they landing? Why are they flying even deeper inside?"
"Aiyo, my silly sister!"
Beside her, Xiao Cui slapped her forehead and looked at Zhu Zhuqing as if she were a country bumpkin.
"That's the true main force on the outer perimeter!"
"There's at least a Supreme-level ancestor stationed on that warship!"
"They're heading to the outer ring of the cave dwelling to drink the soup. Why would they stay here in this 'suburban garbage zone,' a million li away like us?"
"S-Supreme?!"
Although Zhu Zhuqing had already guessed something like that, hearing the cultivation of the people on that warship still shocked her deeply.
After all, that was the legendary Supreme Realm.
Only one step away from the rumored Immortal Realm.
Before she could even recover, another sharp cry that split metal and stone suddenly echoed across the sky.
"Chirp!!!"
A gigantic divine bird bathed in crimson flames streaked across the eastern sky.
Its wings stretched for several thousand zhang.
Each flap tore two charred cracks into the void itself, and the terrifying heat instantly withered the grass and trees below.
"Heavens, that's a Vermilion Bird! The guardian divine beast of Fire Cloud Cave!"
"I didn't expect it to appear!"
Even the normally calm Xiao Cui suddenly jumped to her feet and pointed at the divine bird flying through the sky.
"It's said that the master of Fire Cloud Cave personally subdued that divine bird in his early years. Its natal true flame can burn an entire ocean dry!"
But before Xiao Cui even finished speaking, a thunderous war drum suddenly roared through the air.
Everyone immediately looked up.
A group of knights wearing golden battle armor rode through the sky like a golden torrent.
Under them were one-horned heavenly horses.
Each knight's blood essence surged like a dragon, linking together into a vast wave of battle intent that filled the heavens.
"That's the Imperial Royal Guard of the Golden Crow Kingdom from the Immortal Dynasty!"
"The one leading them is their First Prince, known as the Golden Crow War God. He entered the Self-Release Realm at only three hundred years old!"
Soon after, several even more terrifying figures passed through the sky.
Xiao Cui grabbed Zhu Zhuqing's arm in excitement and began introducing them one by one, as if reciting treasures.
"Look! That giant carrying a mountain on his back is the Sect Master of the Mountain-Moving Sect, a Supreme Realm powerhouse!"
"And that green poisonous mist over there? That's the ancestor of the Five Poison Sect! They say he raises a terrifying toad that even Supreme Realm experts fear!"
"Heavens! That's actually a war chariot from a True Immortal lineage!"
…
Xiao Cui introduced five or six top-tier forces in one breath.
Both Zhu Zhuqing and the people watching behind the Sky Screen from Douluo Continent were completely dumbfounded.
It felt like their entire worldview had shattered again and again.
"T-this is way too powerful."
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help swallowing.
She subconsciously looked upward, trying to see what even greater beings might be hidden above the clouds.
"Boom!"
At that moment, an even grander procession appeared.
A group of experts wearing purple python robes stood upon auspicious clouds of purple qi.
They surrounded an extremely luxurious white jade palace, slowly flying across the sky.
Nine true flood dragons pulled the palace.
On the palace terrace stood a middle-aged man wearing an imperial crown.
His bearing was as majestic as a god.
He simply stood there quietly, yet the surrounding space was slightly collapsing, as if it could not bear his presence.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing looked up with shining eyes, trying to see his face clearly.
But the moment her gaze touched the Emperor—
The emperor seemed to sense something.
He lowered his head slightly and casually glanced at Zhu Zhuqing below.
"Pfft!"
Just that single glance made Zhu Zhuqing feel as if she had been locked onto by some primordial beast.
Her vision instantly went black.
She spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backward as if struck by lightning.
"Careful!"
At the critical moment, a withered hand pressed against her back.
A gentle stream of spiritual power flowed into her body, stabilizing her collapsing mind.
"Huff… huff…"
After regaining her senses, Zhu Zhuqing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and gasped heavily.
Cold sweat had already soaked her entire body.
"Don't look around carelessly."
Behind her, Grandma Wang glanced up at the imperial procession in the sky before withdrawing her hand and speaking sternly.
"That is the Emperor of the Ziwei Dynasty, a true peak Supreme Realm expert!"
"Some even say he has already stepped halfway into the Immortal Realm."
"At that level, one's very existence represents a kind of law."
"You are just a child who has barely entered the Blood Transformation Realm. If you directly gaze upon his true form, you could suffer backlash and die."
Meanwhile, high above the nine heavens.
After glancing at Zhu Zhuqing, the Ziwei Emperor's gaze casually swept past the fluttering banner of the Primordial Immortal Court below.
A faint frown appeared between his brows.
Then he immediately withdrew his gaze.
"Th-thank you for saving my life, Grandma."
Only after the palace pulled by the nine terrifying flood dragons disappeared into the distance did Zhu Zhuqing climb up from the ground, still shaken.
She no longer dared to raise her head casually.
Her awe for this world deepened.
Unlike the Douluo Continent, in this Perfect World, the weak might not even possess the right to look directly at the strong.
"Alright, stay alert."
Grandma Wang gave a casual reminder before turning to inspect the other disciples.
Just as Zhu Zhuqing was about to pull Xiao Cui aside to chat somewhere quietly, a sudden commotion erupted within their servant formation.
"Look! It's Senior Brother Li!"
"My heavens, it really is Senior Brother Li Changfeng!"
"Quick, let's go!"
Seeing so many servants suddenly crowd forward, Zhu Zhuqing followed curiously to the edge of the crowd.
At the center stood a handsome young man.
Although he wore the gray robe of a servant, his noble bearing could not be hidden.
He was surrounded by servants like stars around the moon.
"Who is this Senior Brother Li?" Zhu Zhuqing asked Xiao Cui curiously.
After spending so many days here, she had long treated Xiao Cui as the encyclopedia of this world.
Whenever she didn't understand something, she asked her.
"Him? He's a legend!"
Xiao Cui's eyes were full of admiration.
"I heard he was originally a prince of some ordinary dynasty. In pursuit of a higher path, he resolutely abandoned the throne and came to our Immortal Court as a servant after passing the trials."
"And his luck is unbelievably good!"
"He's participated in this kind of 'garbage picking' mission no fewer than three times!"
"The first time, he picked up a fragmented divine bone."
"The second time, he found several holy medicines."
"And the most outrageous one was the third time."
