Celestial King Seal.
It was only the size of a palm, but so long as Xiang Shaoyun wanted, he could enlarge the seal to the size of a mountain or an entire realm. An entire world seemed to be contained within it, and it also carried all the God Realm energy the Celestial King had stored within the seal prior to his death. Of course, the energy was incomparable to what Xiang Shaoyun had, but it should still be enough to help Xiang Shaoyun enter fourth-stage God Realm.
He gently rubbed the seal as he absorbed all the energy stored within the seal into his astral cosmos sea. He had a natural affinity with the energy and was able to absorb it much easier than when he had absorbed the divine sources. Soon, he was pushed to peak third-stage Rebirth Realm. He only needed more time in seclusion before he could smoothly enter the fourth stage.
Xiang Shaoyun suppressed the imminent breakthrough and muttered, "I'll continue after reaching the Guardians Guild."
He then gathered up with everyone else before resuming his journey to the Guardians Guild. This time, he did not only have Huang Baiwu with him. Scarlet Flame Monarch, Devouring Ghost, Green Ghost, Lang Ya, and the others were also with him. This was an incredibly powerful group. Including the Devil Gods under Xiang Shaoyun's control, he already had a terrifyingly powerful force under his command.
However, that still wasn't enough because Xiang Shaoyun still did not have any top-tier Gods by his side. That would probably be his biggest weakness.
As the group traveled at their top speed, they did not take long to cross several regions. Finally, they made it to the center of the dominion and reached the city that would never fall, the Divine Dominion City. That was where the Guardians Guild was based.
Before the group could even enter the city, they sensed several powerful auras closing in from all directions. From the east, an immortal palace was flying over. Dragons and phoenixes were sculpted on the palace, and sounds of dragons and phoenixes seemed to accompany the palace wherever it went. The dragon and phoenix themes gave the palace an exceptionally majestic appearance.
Someone called out in surprise, "That's the Little Immortal Palace of the Immortal Road Chamber! The Immortal Road Chamber actually deployed something this valuable! I'm afraid that all 108 of their immortal children are already here. It is rumored that the number one immortal child, Zi Lingtian, is younger than 1,000 years old. He has undergone 999 battles without suffering a single defeat. Not long ago, he had even gone to the Zombie God's territory and crushed over a dozen God Realm zombies. The Zombie God tried to kill him, but he managed to escape with his life. It is obvious how strong he is."
"The gender of the immortal child is still unknown, but they are obviously here with the Little Immortal Palace. Looks like they are determined to become the young guild master."
"Look! A sedan is being pulled over by some ancient severing tune birds! Those from the Guangling Palace are here!"
"The severing tune birds are innately born with destructive voices. With one cry, they alarm the world. They are a perfect match for the Divine Guangling Tune. Look, the 36 palace maids are on the sedan. Each of them is incredibly beautiful. The guards by their side are probably the 36 guards of the Guangling Palace. They all look heroic and valiant."
"The Celestial Alliance is here as well. All 81 of their celestial children are here. Just what kind of a war chariot is that? It looks shabby, yet it has an ancient aura that gives off an extremely heavy pressure."
"Is that the legendary Eight-Pointed Dragons Chariot? Look at the eight-pointed shape of the chariot. Each point was made with unique dragon horns. This chariot is a divine object capable of offense and defense, the Celestial Alliance's precious treasure. I did not expect the Celestial Alliance to take this chariot out for this."
"With the Immortal Road Chamber, the Guangling Palace, and the Celestial Alliance taking part, will the other young Gods stand any chance?"
...
The three superpowers were the strongest organizations after the Guardians Guild. However, there were also some other hermit organizations that could not be underestimated either. These organizations all took out their most valuable god-grade items to assist the young Gods they had kept hidden in order to win the position.
After the candidates of the three superpowers entered the Divine Dominion City, more and more young Gods arrived. One appeared riding on a demonic beast possessing a draconic ancestry. It was on the verge of turning into a true dragon and was already a Demon God. The person mounted on the beast was Dongfang Wudi of the Eastern Pass.
Another candidate arrived on a spectral horse. The man on the horse was brash and arrogant, emanating a domineering God Realm aura that sent everyone near him flying away and coughing blood. He had a massive sword hanging on his back, and he was none other than the Eastern Pass's Bai Fan.
There was also a young monk that had come empty-handed. On his journey, he had constantly chanted Buddhist scriptures, flooding his surroundings with Buddhist symbols. Anyone who approached him would be attracted by his chants and would unknowingly start walking with him.
Each of these individuals was a giant among men, born to stand at the pinnacle of humanity. Each had unique talents and numerous fortuitous encounters that had allowed them to become a God below 1,000 years old.
The Di Clan had also arrived.
Their representative was actually Xiang Shaoyun's nemesis, Di Lin. Behind Di Lin were 18 God Realm guards. Di Lin himself was mounted atop a God Realm tiger. Wrapped in a thick layer of god-grade flame, he looked rather overbearing.
After losing his life once to Xiang Shaoyun and undergoing rebirth, Di Lin had changed into an entirely different person. He had fused with Sima's soul, and the two had become one. It did not cause him any discomfort. Rather, he became even more talented than before. His luck seemed to have improved greatly as well. He constantly had fortuitous encounters, especially during his time at the ancient battlefield where he had obtained the inheritance of a powerful human expert.
That inheritance had helped him enter the Rebirth Realm. After returning to the Di Clan, he was further assisted by the clan's secret technique, allowing his strength to skyrocket into fifth-stage Rebirth Realm.
One could say that he was improving at a speed that not even Dongfang Wudi could compare to. After all, even Dongfang Wudi was still a peak second-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator. It was no wonder why Di Lin was the second young genius to rise from the Western Desert after Xiang Shaoyun.
Not long after, the Yu Clan also arrived. Their arrival was accompanied by great fanfare. Nine phoenixes were pulling a luxurious carriage when they arrived by traveling through space. Seated in the luxurious carriage was a young man and a young woman. The man was Yu Tianhuang, the Yu Clan's hidden young genius who had created the phenomenon of a myriad of birds. The fact that he could use Tianhuang as his name, which meant heavenly phoenix, signified that he saw himself as a divine phoenix. As for the young woman by his side, she was none other than Yu Caidie.
Yu Tianhuang's appearance was akin to the appearance of a phoenix. A divine flame flickered around his body, presenting an unimaginable sight to everyone around him. He had a shocking cultivation level of sixth-stage Rebirth Realm, a stage higher than Di Lin.
As for Yu Caidie, she was no longer at first-stage Rebirth Realm. Rather, she had improved and reached third-stage Rebirth Realm, showcasing an astonishing growth speed.
