#2056 - Ancient Palace 'Palace Master'
Yang Che immediately sensed the intensity of this 'pressure', which was at least from a 'Ten-star Perfect Ancient God'.
This 'pressure' is stronger than the ten-star perfect ancient god 'Gu Yan' that is imprisoned in the space inside his body, but it is not as strong as the Immortal Ancestor level.
"It's the Palace Master, Gu Man!"
He immediately guessed the identity of the owner of this "pressure", it was the then "Palace Master" of the Ancient God Palace, Gu Man.
Including the Palace Master, there are a total of four ten-star great perfection ancient gods in the Ancient God Palace.
The three elders in power are Gu Yun, Gu Hong and Gu Yan.
As for Palace Master Gu Man, according to the information he knew, her strength was not as strong as that of an Immortal Ancestor, but she was above the 'Top-level Immortal Saint'.
Perhaps it was his 'abnormal' star condensation that caught Gu Man's attention.
However, despite the pressure, Yang Che remained calm. After comprehending part of the "Eternal Forbidden Scripture", the concealment of his immortal cultivation became more advanced, and his clone was in the space inside his body, so even the Palace Master of the Ancient God Palace would only think that he was a newly advanced "Eight-Star God King".
The only thing he was worried about was the possibility of his ancient bloodline being exposed.
Yang Che pretended that he couldn't bear the pressure and mobilized the power of the ancient gods to "fight desperately".
After a few breaths, a tall woman in palace dress appeared above the Ancient God Pond.
The woman looked dignified as she looked towards the separate pool where Yang Che was, her eyes slightly fixed as she said:
"Show me your ID token."
This woman is none other than the Palace Master of the Ancient God Palace, 'Gu Man'.
Yang Che threw the identity token to Gu Man without hesitation.
Gu Man took it, examined it carefully, and said in a slightly cold voice:
"You have been a member of my Ancient God Palace for less than a hundred years?"
"Yes, senior." The pressure that enveloped Yang Che had disappeared, and he bowed to Gu Man.
Gu Man threw the identity token back to Yang Che and said calmly:
"Tell your master to come see me."
"Junior will report to Master immediately."
Yang Che immediately summoned "Master Liu E".
About an incense stick later, Liu E, a tall old woman in a plain dress, came to Xingdao. With her was a ten-star perfect ancient god who looked like a beautiful woman in palace clothing. It was Gu Yun.
After receiving the message from Yang Che, Liu E immediately reported it to Gu Yun and asked Gu Yun to come here with her.
"Meet the Palace Master!"
Gu Yun and Liu E both bowed to Gu Meng.
Gu Man looked at Liu E and said:
"Elder Liu, I have checked the records of the Ancient God Pond. Your disciple Zhang Gu has been promoted from six stars to eight stars in less than ninety years. This talent and strength is enough to rank among the top three in my Ancient God Palace, right?"
Liu E quickly replied:
"Palace Master, it is like this. Zhang Gu has made great contributions to our Ancient God Palace and obtained a large number of Ancient God Contribution Points. He entered the time acceleration layer of the Ancient God Tower to practice."
"Oh? What kind of merit can allow him to obtain such a huge contribution value from the Ancient God?" Gu Man showed a puzzled look.
At this time, Gu Yun said:
"Palace Master, the person who made the greatest contribution to the 'Yifeng Saltpeter' incident was Zhang Gu." He explained it in detail to Gu Man.
"So that's how it is."
Gu Man took another careful look at Yang Che, and after her spiritual sense had carefully scanned his body several times, she nodded and said:
"He is a man of great potential."
After saying this, his figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
Yang Che then secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that he would be called into the Ancient God Tower by Gu Man. If he entered the Ancient God Tower, with the restrictions in the tower, his bloodline would definitely not be concealed.
Gu Yun looked at Yang Che and said:
"Zhang Gu, you have been appreciated by the Palace Master. You will have a bright future in my Ancient God Palace. Practice hard, and when you condense the Nine Stars, the Ancient God Palace will entrust you with important tasks."
"Okay, senior." Yang Che bowed.
Liu E said with concern: "Zhang Gu, the final catastrophe is about to affect the Central Immortal Realm. In addition to cultivation, you should also pay more attention to the news of the sect."
"Okay, Master."
Soon, Gu Yun and Liu E left the Ancient God Pool.
Yang Che stayed for several more hours, walked out of the Ancient God Pool, and directly left the Ancient God Palace and headed for the "Star Storm" area in the Western Immortal Realm.
In this 'space rift', the time flow rate is two hundred times faster, making it a good place for retreat and cultivation.
He calculated the time and thought that ten years of seclusion here and two thousand years in the space rift should be no problem.
During this retreat, he planned to comprehend the Law of the Great Starry Way to the 'seventh chain' or even the 'eighth chain' first, and then devote all his energy to integrating the Law of the Great Chaos Way with the Law of the Great Starry Way.
Entering the space crack, moving out the dozens of golden grids that had been laid out in advance, Yang Che began to retreat with all his strength...
Five years later, in the underworld.
A special hall covering a very large area.
Above the majestic and tall palace gate, there are two ancient characters "Yama Luo" engraved.
This is the headquarters of Yama Palace, one of the three top forces in the underworld.
There are ten halls in Yama Palace, each with a hall master, also known as Yama, all of whom are powerful "immortal saints".
Inside the Sixth Hall, the light was dim.
'Sixth Yama' Yan Qingmei sat high in the main seat, her face was pitch black and it was hard to tell whether she was beautiful or ugly. In each of her eyes, a flame like the fire of the underworld occasionally appeared.
Below, a black-robed ghost cultivator stood respectfully. He had just reported an important matter to Yan Qingmei.
There was silence in the hall for a while, and Yan Qingmei asked:
"You mean to say that this underworld envoy named 'Mei' was suspected of having someone secretly helping him when he was completing the 'initial test' mission of the Great Underworld?"
Black robe ghost monk:
"Yes, senior. Han Zhiyu and I have been following this person for a while. We guess that someone secretly helped her complete the task."
Yan Qingmei said:
"Then do you have any solid evidence?"
"This... there is no hard evidence. However, after Han Zhiyu and I found something wrong, we secretly followed and observed for a long time. We can confirm that it is correct with a high probability. That's why I came to report to you. Please help and verify it."
There was another silence in the hall. After a while, Yan Qingmei waved her hand and said:
"You go down first. If you have any new information, report it in time."
"Yes." The black-robed ghost cultivator respectfully took his leave.
Yan Qingmei still sat in the main seat. After thinking for a while, she engraved some information on the jade slip and then sent out a message.
After a while, a high-level immortal with black and white stripes painted on his face and holding a "black pen" walked into the hall.
"Greetings, Lord Yama." The high-level immortal bowed respectfully.
Yan Qingmei said:
"Qin Shuo, go check on a dark messenger named 'Mei' in the Dark Selection Department. Investigate secretly. I want to see if there is any big shot behind this person."
As he spoke, he threw a jade slip to Qin Shuo and gave him some detailed instructions.
Qin Shuo took the order and left.
At this time, in another place in the underworld, Gongsun Guihai's "Great Underworld Mansion".
A skinny old man in a brown robe walked hurriedly.
This old man had gray and dry hair combed back, revealing a strange double forehead. He had three long white beards hanging down to his chest, which were longer on the sides and shorter in the middle, forming a strange "chuan" shape. He was none other than Gongsun Guihai, one of the great underworld officials.
