The Eastern Demon Feather originally had nine Ruler Mountains.

Ever since the return of the tenth disciple of the Great Emperor Nether Flame, Lu Lingzi, the Lan family declined. The many resources within its sphere of influence were naturally taken over by Lu Lingzi.

Not far from the Lan Family’s territory, the tenth Ruler Mountain stood.

This mountain towered into the clouds, and from a distance, it appeared majestic, exuding an immense aura of power. At the same time, waves of pressure that belonged to a Ruler emanated from it, enveloping the surrounding area.

It suppressed the heaven and earth of this area.

This caused a massive vortex to form in the sky above, which had been continuously rotating for several months, producing a thunderous noise.

It attracted countless bolts of lightning that swam inside with a majestic aura.

As for the surroundings of this mountain, the area within one and a half kilometers was like a forbidden zone. It was empty.

Outside of this range, ten thousand or so Demon Feather Race cultivators had gathered and were all meditating with the mountain as the center.

Looking from the sky, the surroundings of the mountain were densely packed.

Among them were rogue cultivators and forces that originally belonged to the Lan family. Their goal in coming here was to join the Tenth Ruler.

In the Demon Feather Holy Land, whenever a new Ruler appeared and formed their own Ruler Mountain, something similar would happen.

The new Rulers would also expand their influence and recruit a large number of subordinates.

Hence, at the foot of the Tenth Ruler Mountain, cultivators came to seek refuge from afar every day. After gathering for a few months, they formed their current scale.

After all, if they could become a subordinate of the Ruler, their status would be completely different from before. Moreover, in this wartime, with the protection of a Ruler, they would be much safer.

It was just that… so far, the new Ruler, Lu Lingzi, hadn’t recruited anyone into the mountain.

Even his previous subordinates weren’t summoned by him.

Hence, Lu Lingzi was the only one on the huge mountain.

Because there were a lot of cultivators surrounding the mountain, they spontaneously formed a market city and traded items and information with each other. They were all waiting to become the Ruler’s subordinates.

As time passed, it gradually became lively.

However, all the cultivators who came here didn’t step within 1.5 kilometers of the mountain, limiting all the commotion to outside that range.

When Xu Qing arrived, what he saw was the bustling scene around the Ruler Mountain.

Xu Qing, who had transformed into Xue Chenzi, didn’t stop in the market. He sped past and headed straight for the deserted 1.5 kilometers forbidden region.

At the start, not many people paid attention to Xu Qing’s appearance. It was only when Xu Qing sped all the way across the city square and stepped into the forbidden range that he attracted some gazes.

However, that was all.

In the past two months, there were many cultivators who flew like Xu Qing. All of them went to see the Ruler after they got close to the mountain. However, in the end, they waited for a long time but there was no response. They could only leave the forbidden range and wait in the surroundings.

Hence, those who saw Xu Qing’s actions only looked at him.

Xu Qing didn’t care about those gazes. After he got close to the Ruler Mountain, he stood in the air and looked up at the huge mountain in front of him.

His eyes were deep and he was in deep thought. After a long time, Xu Qing took a deep breath and determination appeared in his eyes. He bowed and spoke in a deep voice.

“Xue Chenzi requests to see the Ruler!”

His voice was like muffled thunder that echoed in all directions, attracting even more attention.

This was Xu Qing’s probe.

If he agreed to meet, everything could be discussed.

If he didn’t, Xu Qing had another plan.

However, fifteen minutes passed and there was no response from the majestic Ruler Mountain.

Hence, most of the gazes that landed on Xu Qing retracted. All of them sighed with emotion and transmitted their voices to each other.

“Another one who believes he won’t fail.”

“Isn’t this Xue Chenzi? Does he think that the Ruler will treat him differently just because of his cultivation base and battle merits?”

“He clearly saw us waiting here but he still insisted on trying his luck. Such a loud voice… If I were the Ruler, I definitely wouldn’t like to be disturbed like this.”

“If you want to become a subordinate of the Ruler, you have to let the Ruler see your sincerity. So, the best solution is to wait in the surroundings. One day, the Ruler will see our sincerity.”

Everyone shook their heads and ignored Xu Qing.

In their judgment, it wouldn’t be long before Xue Chenzi left dejectedly.

Xu Qing turned a deaf ear to everyone’s discussion. His expression remained calm as he continued to stand in the air and bow.

Just like that, another fifteen minutes passed.

Everyone retracted their gaze. Everything returned to normal and the market became lively again.

However, at this moment… Xu Qing shouted again.

“Xue Chenzi requests to see the Ruler!”

The same words echoed again, attracting the attention of everyone in the surroundings. Hence, many gazes were cast over again, and some of them were filled with dissatisfaction.

Discussions rang out one after another.

However, at the next instant, a scene that caused all the cultivators here to fall silent and their expressions to change drastically appeared.

The Ruler Mountain suddenly rumbled!

The mountain shook!

Amidst the rumbling, lightning soared in the huge vortex above, spreading out like a torrent, stirring up an even greater commotion.

The rumbling sound seemed to be enhanced and spread in all directions.

After that, a pair of huge eyes appeared in the vortex.

These eyes were silver and cold. It was like the eye of heaven, looking down at the ground.

Anyone who was stared at by this gaze was shaken. They lowered their heads and instinctively prostrated.

A vast intent emerged and a terrifying pressure caused the ground to tremble. Countless cultivators’ breathing was hurried and their minds were in turmoil. Lu Lingzi’s voice coldly rang out from the Ruler Mountain.

“Come up.”

These words surpassed heavenly lightning and exploded.

It formed countless lingering sounds that landed in the ears of everyone here, rumbling their souls.

Just as everyone’s minds were churning intensely, Xu Qing took a deep breath and took a step forward.

Under the gaze of everyone, he directly flew toward the Ruler Mountain.

Very soon, he disappeared into the mountain.

When the cultivators who had been waiting in the surroundings saw this scene, they were all stunned. All kinds of emotions couldn’t help but interweave in their hearts and their gazes became fiery.

They were extremely surprised that Xue Chenzi was summoned. However, what followed was excitement.

This was because if the first one was summoned, it meant that there could be a second one. It meant that their wait would end soon.

Compared to the excited mood of everyone in the outside world, Xu Qing’s thoughts ran as he had a preliminary answer from the first probe.

He flew into the mountain and sped inside, heading straight for the top of the mountain.

Very soon, a simple-looking hall appeared in his eyes.

This hall was located at the top of the mountain and the door was wide open.

As he got closer, he saw a person sitting cross-legged at the top of the hall with his eyes closed.

It was Lu Lingzi.

The moment he saw the other party, Xu Qing lowered his head and walked a few steps forward. He didn’t step into the hall but bowed outside.

He didn’t say a word.

A long time later, Lu Lingzi, who was in the hall, opened his eyes.

There were no fluctuations in his eyes, nor were there any emotions. He calmly spoke.

“What is it?”

This sound contained laws, and it caused ripples in the void.

Xu Qing didn’t hesitate and replied in a low voice.

“Ruler, please grant me the qualification to enter the World Source Secret Realm.”

Lu Lingzi’s expression didn’t change at all. He only glanced at Xu Qing and slowly spoke.

“Exchange with your war contributions.”

Xu Qing shook his head and calmly spoke.

“I don’t have any war contributions.”

He indeed didn’t.

Previously, when Xu Qing checked the mission jade slip, he discovered that there were many missions in it, mostly related to war.

In fact, many of them even had to fight against the human race and kill their experts.

As for those that had nothing to do with the war, the price to complete them was also very high. Moreover, they didn’t give many battle merits and it would take too long.

As for the qualification for the World Source Secret Realm, it required a lot of war contributions.

If he really went to complete those missions, it would take several months for him to accumulate enough.

Since that was the case, Xu Qing felt that he might as well not take the path of missions. It would be simpler to directly ask Lu Lingzi for the qualification.

After all, from his and Erniu’s analysis, there was something wrong about Lu Lingzi’s identity.

If the other party was indeed Lu Lingzi, then even with his status as a Ruler, there was a high chance that he wouldn’t recognize the karma between them.

In that case, the possibility of Xu Qing being summoned was very small.

However, if the other party wasn’t the real Lu Lingzi, then his identity… Other than the Empress, there was anyone else.

Hence, Xu Qing felt that it was feasible for him to ask for the qualifications to enter the secret realm.

This was why he had come.

After meeting him, Xu Qing was still not sure if the Lu Lingzi in front of him was the same person he had seen back then.

Or perhaps, it was the Empress…

Hence, he had been secretly observing.

At that moment, after hearing Xu Qing’s words, Lu Lingzi slowly spoke after a long time.

“Wanting the qualifications to enter the secret realm without military contributions is one thing, but speaking so righteously about it—Xu Qing, you have a lot of nerve, even more than your senior brother!”

As his voice rang out, the pressure spread out, enveloping the entire Ruler Mountain.

This caused the vortex in the sky to rumble even more. The entire mountain shook, forming an isolating seal.

After his identity was exposed, Xu Qing blinked. He could naturally tell that the other party was implying something when he said that he was bold. Hence, he raised his head and met Lu Lingzi’s gaze.

“Your Majesty…”

Xu Qing fell silent after saying that.

A long time later, amidst this pressure, Lu Lingzi spoke.

“Where’s your senior brother?”

Xu Qing blinked and answered truthfully.

“He went to the Immortal Arts Hall.”

Lu Lingzi fell silent. A while later, he let out a cold snort and a token flew out, heading straight for Xu Qing.

Xu Qing caught it.

This token was the qualification token to the World Source Secret Realm.

“Thank you, Ruler!”

Xu Qing bowed and turned to leave.

“Don’t make too much noise!”

Lu Lingzi’s voice rang out from behind.

Xu Qing stopped in his tracks and nodded before leaving.

After he left, Lu Lingzi, who was sitting cross-legged in the main hall, rubbed his temples.

“It’s still fine with Xu Qing. He knows his limits. As for his senior brother… he’s worrisome..”
