Even Saint Realm experts, who are usually seen as lofty figures, appeared insignificant before such an ancient Saint Realm predecessor.

The reason they were stationed here was precisely because of this ancient Saint Realm expert. They were on guard, wary of him learning about the late Emperor's death, which might lead him to covet the imperial territory and plunge the world into chaos.

They had considered countless methods and strategies to deal with this situation.

But now, sensing that the other party was about to arrive.

They realized that in the face of absolute power, everything was illusory.

As one of the seven saints in the world, they would actually feel panic because of the gap in strength. This made the faces of Saint Hongyuan and Saint Tianjian slightly unsightly.

"What are you two juniors doing here?"

"Could it be that you are waiting for this old man?"

An extremely powerful aura descended upon the backyard of the tavern while the two were lost in thought.

The surging pressure of the Saint Realm faintly made the two saints feel breathless.

Fortunately, Saint Hongsha did not show any signs of deliberately making things difficult for them.

After landing, he withdrew the aura.

"Congratulations, senior, on breaking through!" Saint Hongyuan and Saint Tianjian immediately bowed to the Hongsha Sect Leader, their attitude very respectful.

"You two little fellows are not bad either. In the past hundred years, your cultivation has reached the level of Lesser Mastery of Saint Intent. Not bad, not bad!" The Hongsha Sect Leader waved his hand, signaling.

He recognized Hongyuan and Tianjian.

A hundred years ago, when Xuan Ce led his army to fight against the fierce beasts.

These two had just broken through to the Saint Realm and had followed them into the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range.

Now, a hundred years had passed, and the two had stabilized their realms and even taken a step further.

"Speak, are you two here specifically to wait for this old man?"

The Hongsha Sect Leader's eyes fell on the two of them, and he slowly spoke.

These two were subordinates of Xuan Ce.

Instead of staying in the vast imperial territory, they had come to Tianhong County, which bordered the Hongsha Marsh. He didn't think they were here for sightseeing.

The most likely reason was that they were waiting for him.

As for the purpose, it was easy to discern.

Without a doubt, the only one who could command these two was Xuan Ce.

"Senior is wise, we are indeed here waiting for you." Saint Tianjian smiled wryly and admitted.

Each level of the Saint Realm greatly enhances the power of the divine soul.

Lying in front of a powerhouse like the Hongsha Sect Leader was meaningless.

Even if they were also in the Saint Realm, the fluctuations of their divine souls when they lied would be easily captured by the Hongsha Sect Leader.

"Xuan Ce sent you here, right?"

"Go back and report. Tell him that I have emerged from seclusion and invite him to a battle in the Hongsha Marsh!" The Hongsha Sect Leader had an expression that said, "As expected," and then signaled the two to return.

In his opinion, Xuan Ce had sent the two here.

It was entirely to prevent him from infiltrating the imperial court.

After all, a hundred years ago, he had made an agreement with Xuan Ce that after a hundred years, he would challenge him to compete for the title of the strongest in the world.

As the oldest saint in the world.

Being robbed of the throne of the strongest by a rising star.

The Hongsha Sect Leader had always been brooding over it.

In addition to the death of the Left Saint Envoy.

And the strong confidence of breaking through to the peak of the Saint Realm Perfection.

Made the Hongsha Sect Leader eager to fight the late Emperor Xuan Ce!

And determine the outcome!

"This..."

Unexpectedly, when Tianjian and the other heard this, they looked at each other with a hint of surprise on their faces.

"What's wrong?" The Hongsha Sect Leader frowned slightly.

"Senior, don't you know that the late Emperor has already fallen a month ago?" Saint Tianjian took a deep breath and asked in surprise.

All along, they had mistakenly thought that the Hongsha Sect Leader had stepped into the imperial territory after learning of the late Emperor's death.

But now it seemed that it was not the case.

"Xuan Ce is dead?" The Hongsha Sect Leader was shocked upon hearing this.

A trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes.

"That's right, a month ago, the Commander of the Imperial Guards under the late Emperor announced that he had made a mistake in his cultivation, which led to the reversal of the Saint Force in his meridians and the disintegration of the Saint Intent..." Saint Tianjian said truthfully.

"Impossible, this trickery."

"Xuan Ce is a dignified Saint Realm Perfection expert, how could there be a mistake in his cultivation?" The Hongsha Sect Leader denied it on the spot, not believing it at all.

In his opinion, this matter was completely absurd.

As the strongest person in the world, no one knew more about cultivation than him, how could such a change occur?

"Reporting to Senior, when this matter happened, the juniors did not believe it either, but the aura of the late Emperor is indeed gone from the world!"

"However, there have been rumors recently that the late Emperor is suspected of faking his death, intending to spy on the God-Demon realm above the Saint Realm..." After thinking about it, Saint Hongyuan betrayed the late Emperor.

"Oh?" The Hongsha Sect Leader narrowed his eyes.

Saint Hongyuan's words shocked him.

............

Saint Realm martial artists like them.

Are very careful about cultivation in this realm, as if walking on thin ice.

The late Emperor Xuan Ce himself was also in the Saint Realm Perfection.

It is even more impossible to make such a low-level mistake.

In short, the Hongsha Sect Leader heard the news.

The first reaction was disbelief.

On the contrary, the rumors that Saint Hongyuan said.

Made the Hongsha Sect Leader think it was credible.

"Could it be that the thing Xuan Ce obtained from that area contained the mysteries of breaking through the God-Demon?" A trace of solemnity appeared on the Hongsha Sect Leader's face.

A hundred years ago.

The Southern Continent Allied Forces counterattacked the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range.

A large number of martial artists entered the depths of the mountain range.

However, only he, Xuan Ce, and the Savage Saint of the Barbarian race.

Killed out of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range range they already knew, and came to another unknown mountain range area that they did not know before.

That area was rich in spiritual energy, and the air was faintly filled with a mysterious rule that surpassed mortals, suspected to be the place where gods and demons lived.

There, although they were frightened by a mysterious aura.

But they did not return empty-handed.

He, the late Emperor, and the Savage Saint each had some gains.

It's just that they came from three forces.

This time, it was a temporary alliance formed to fight against the beast disaster.

They did not trust each other very much.

Therefore, the treasures they obtained were all concealed.

In the past hundred years, he has also relied on the treasures he obtained at that time.

To raise his Saint Intent to the highest level, so as to break through to the current realm.

And now in the Southern Continent, the laws of gods and demons are missing, and it has become a spiritless continent. It is impossible to break through the God-Demon realm by oneself.

Therefore, the Hongsha Sect Leader did not think about this.

But if the treasure that the late Emperor chose to obtain at that time was really related to the God-Demon realm.

Perhaps, what Saint Hongyuan said was possible.

Gods and demons are recorded in ancient books, possessing mysterious power.

Things that can stump mortals may not be able to trap items at the God-Demon level.

"In a hundred years, this old man was able to understand that sacred object."

"Xuan Ce may also be at this time, comprehending and starting to implement what he obtained in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range..."

The Hongsha Sect Leader took a breath of cold air.

The more he felt that this was very likely.

"Then do you know where the late Emperor would go if he faked his death?" The Hongsha Sect Leader looked at the two and asked.

"Reporting to Senior, the juniors have no way of guessing."

"In the past hundred years, the late Emperor divided us into four prefectures to guard, not allowing us to get close to Tongyuan Prefecture or the imperial capital city at all. The late Emperor has never discussed any plans with us, so..." Saint Hongyuan shook his head slightly.
