Library of Heaven’s Path - Chapter 2182

“Young Master Zhang, if you wish to head to Royal City, I can send someone to escort you there!”

The guard said with a smile.

This was a common expression that would appear on anyone who came to the Sky of Spirit Origin for the first time.

The amount of energy required to make a city float in the air was simply too great. It was not something that just anyone could accomplish.

Even God Kings and Conferred God Kings were incapable of such a feat, so only God Monarchs were capable of it.

Not too long later, the aerial celestial beast was ready and brought over.

Stepping onto the back of the aerial celestial beast, Zhang Xuan followed the guard to the floating city.

Even before arriving, he could already feel the immense pressure coming from above.

Activating his Eye of Insight, Zhang Xuan examined the city for a moment before asking curiously, “There isn’t any formation beneath the city, so how is it floating?”

Under normal circumstances, such floating boulders and towns would require a powerful formation to sustain them. Yet, the floating boulder before him seemed to be even more powerful than that. Yet, why was he unable to see anything through his Eye of Insight?

“Spirit Origin Royal City doesn’t require a formation to float!”

The guard chuckled, his tone filled with pride.

“How can it float without a formation?” Zhang Xuan asked.

The laws of the Firmament were extremely stable, such that only God Kings were capable of flight. Given the size of the city before him, the chances of anyone reaching the God King realm were close to zero. What kind of energy could make it float in the air without a formation?

“It’s a feather!” The guard explained. “Back when the city was being built, no matter how hard we tried, it wouldn’t fly. It was the Fire Feather Conferred God King who found a feather from somewhere and placed it at the very bottom of the city. It’s this feather that allows the city to float in the air.”

Zhang Xuan was stunned. He turned his gaze toward the floating city, and he saw a massive feather beneath the city. The feather was supporting the city, allowing it to float in the air.

The feather was several hundred li long, and it was hard to tell where it came from.

While Zhang Xuan was still in shock, Little Chick’s voice suddenly sounded in his ears. “I want to eat …”

“Eat a chicken feather?” Zhang Xuan was rendered speechless.

All you know is to eat, eat, eat …

It was one thing for you to be a lackey in the past, but now that you are a God King, can you at least pay attention to your image?

You might be shameless, but I am …

“This is chicken feather, I want to eat it!” The chick was serious.

“No matter what hair it is, you can’t eat it now …” Zhang Xuan advised.

Putting aside the fact that it was impossible for the chicken to swallow the feather, just the aura and might that it harnessed were not something that ordinary God Kings would be able to approach, let alone a Celestial God like him.

Besides, it was this feather that had lifted the floating city to its current scale. If he were to really eat it … there was a good chance that the entire Sky of Spirit Origin would rush over and chop him into mincemeat before stewing the chicken with the mushrooms.

“Alright …”

Even though Little Chick was a little frustrated that its master wouldn’t allow it to eat, it still shook its head helplessly. With a sway of its body, it disappeared from the spot and dove back into Zhang Xuan’s dantian.

If he wasn’t allowed to eat, it was best not to look at it. Otherwise, the more he looked, the more craving he would feel.

The flying divine beast’s speed was very fast. Soon, it arrived above the city and landed.

“Can you tell me what I need to pay attention to in Spirit Origin Royal City? Also, who is the Fire Feather Conferred God King you mentioned earlier?”

Zhang Xuan asked as he passed a middle-tier God Essence Pill over to the guard.

The guard was an ordinary high-tier Celestial God, so a middle-tier God Essence Pill was already extremely valuable.

As expected, the guard’s attitude immediately changed after receiving the pill. With a smile on his face, he said, “Spirit Origin Royal City is the capital of the Sky of Spirit Origin, and the Spirit Origin Monarch, also known as the Deathless Monarch, oversees it. The fact that Young Master Zhang was able to obtain the Great Displacement Teleportation Token means that your cultivation is probably on par with a God King. The only ones that you need to pay attention to are the three Conferred God Kings.

“The first one is the Fire Feather Conferred God King I mentioned earlier. He possesses the bloodline of the Inferno Phoenix, and he is able to incinerate the entire world in a fit of rage. Even among the Conferred God Kings of the Nine Skies, he can be considered as an expert. He controls the southern area of Spirit Origin Royal City.

“The second one is the Ice Feather Conferred God King. He possesses the bloodline of the Inferno Phoenix, and he is able to freeze everything in his path. He controls the northern area of Spirit Origin Royal City.

“As for the third one, he is the Wind Feather Conferred God King. He possesses the bloodline of the Inferno Phoenix, granting him incredible speed. While his fighting prowess isn’t on par with the first two, he’s still able to escape easily. He’s stationed at the western area of Spirit Origin Royal City. ”

Zhang Xuan gazed at the floating city in front of him.

He immediately saw the scorching sun shining brightly in the south while the snowflakes drifted in the air in the north.

To think that the north and south of the same city would be like two different worlds!

At the same time, a thought surfaced in Zhang Xuan’s mind. “If the three Conferred God Kings all possess the bloodline of the Inferno Phoenix, could it be that the monarch of the Sky of Spirit Origin …”

If the three Conferred God Kings all possessed the bloodline of the Inferno Phoenix, could it be that the monarch of the Sky of Spirit Origin had something to do with them?

After all, that was how the Sky of Cloud Dragon was. Those who were able to become powerful experts possessed the bloodline of the Dragon Tribe.

For example, Ao Hua.

“Don’t you know anything about it?” the guard asked.

“What do I know?” Zhang Xuan was perplexed.

“The Sky of Spirit Origin is also known as the Sky of Deathlessness, and the monarch of the Sky of Spirit Origin is known as the Deathless Monarch. If that’s the case, do you know why he has such a name? ”

Zhang Xuan shook his head.

He had wanted to say that it was because he was undying, but recalling the grave he had seen in the Firmament, he decided not to say it out loud.

In the Firmament, undying might not necessarily be true.

The God Monarchs were lofty existences who were undefeatable.

Otherwise, why would Kong Shi be able to challenge all eight God Monarchs unscathed?

Why would the monarch of the Sky of Freedom be able to make the other eight Skies submit to him?

“The reason why the God Monarch is known as such is because he is a beast in human form, and his true form is that of the noblest bloodline of the Nine Skies Phoenix Tribe … the Deathless Celestial Phoenix,” the guard explained.

If not for the other party’s generosity, he would not have said anything about the God Monarch.

“Deathless Celestial Phoenix? The Deathless Phoenix? “Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in realization.

So that was the case.

He had thought that the Cloud Dragon Monarch of the Sky of Cloud Dragon was a beast, and the others were all humans. From the looks of it, it seemed like the Sky of Deathless was the same as well.

“May I know if there are any other God Monarchs in the Firmament’s Nine Skies who are divine beasts in human form?” Zhang Xuan asked.

Seeing how Zhang Xuan, who was on the verge of making a breakthrough to God King, was actually ignorant of such basic knowledge, the guard shook his head and said, “Those who guard the four cardinal directions of the Firmament are divine beasts in human form. In the eastern Sky of Cloud Dragon, the true form of the Cloud Dragon Monarch was an azure dragon. In the Western Heavens of Gengjin, Celestial Emperor Fumeng’s true form was a white tiger divine beast. In the southern Undying Sky, our Undying Monarch’s true form is the Undying Sky Phoenix, also known as the Vermillion Bird Divine Beast. As for the Mystic Dark Heavenly Emperor of the Northern Mystic Underworld Sky, his true form was a Black Tortoise. The four divine beasts guard the four poles … ”

Zhang Xuan’s eyes widened.

While he had asked Fu Jiangchen about the names of the Nine Skies Nine God Monarchs, he did not know much about them. He did not think that the Four Skies and Four Extremities would be guarded by four divine beasts.

Azure Dragon in the East, White Tiger in the West, Vermilion Bird in the South, Black Tortoise in the North …

“I have already told you everything that needs to be said. If you have anything that you need to do, you can go ahead. Spirit Origin Royal City forbids you from causing trouble, so you mustn’t cause any trouble.

Seeing that Zhang Xuan did not know anything at all, the guard turned his divine beast around and prepared to leave.

“Wait a moment. I still have some questions that I would like to ask you,” Zhang Xuan quickly said. “May I know where the God Monarch of the Sky of Spirit Origin lives? Is he addressed as the Spirit God as well? ”

“Of course, the God Monarch lives in the God Monarch Palace. We address him as the Spirit God, which is the Spirit God Palace. However, it is said that the palace has not been opened for several decades, such that even Lord Huo Yu is unable to enter it, “the guard said.

The guard said, “Also, if you want to ask about the Emperor Monarch, that’s all I know. I don’t know anything else.”

Zhang Xuan nodded.

He dared not ask too much about the death of the Deathless Monarch. After all, it was too shocking a matter, and it would not be good for anyone to learn of it.

“Then … if I want to gather information, who should I look for?”

Knowing that the guard was only an ordinary high-tier Celestial God, Zhang Xuan asked curiously.

“That will depend on what kind of information you are looking for. Most of the time, you’ll be able to get it from the merchant houses. There are all sorts of people there, so it’s inevitable that news will spread far and wide. Putting everything else aside, I heard that the Sky of Drifting Specter is selling a new Beauty Pill.

A hint of envy surfaced in the guard’s eyes. “Of course, if the matter that you are looking for involves the God Monarchs, there’s no way that they would know much about it. It would be best for you to look for the members of the Three Premier Clans. Every single one of them is an esteemed figure, so they should be privy to a lot of information.

“Thank you,” Zhang Xuan clasped his fist.

The other party was right.

There were not many people who knew about the God Monarch. He really wanted to know if Lozosy had inherited the position of the Deathless Monarch and become the new Spirit God. If so, he wanted to know where she was and how he could get in touch with her. Only the three Conferred God Kings would be able to do such a thing.

Next would be the God Kings.

As for the guards of the Three Premier Clans, they were simply too weak. God Kings were not people whom they could come into contact with.

Naturally, they would not be able to find out anything.

Just that …

Each Conferred God King was stronger than the other. Given his strength, which even God Kings could not defeat, how could he possibly come into contact with them?

If he really went over, there was a good chance that the other party would slap him to death before he could even say a word.

Unless …

He had an identity that even the Conferred God Kings were wary of!

For example, back in the Sky of Drifting Specter, Qi Meng had mistaken him for a God Monarch.

After that, not only was it easy for him to purchase high-tier God Essence Pills, he was even able to obtain the green light for everything else. Otherwise, how could it have been so easy for him to sell the three medicinal herbs and hold such a huge convention in a place as chaotic as the Sky of Drifting Specter?

As long as he had such an identity, it would be much easier for him to look for information.

With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan rubbed his glabella and fell into deep thought. “Should I try disguising myself as a God Monarch?”
