Da Xuan Martial Saint - Chapter 1281 - 622: Gains

Chapter 1281: Chapter 622: Gains

Fan Gu Divine Monarch smiled slightly. Regardless of how it turned out, Tai Chen was his disciple. To be able to break through that barrier and step into the Divine Monarch Level, he was actually quite satisfied, even to the point where he was already preparing an appropriate Upper Divine Weapon for Tai Chen.

What slightly regretted him was that he discovered Chen Mu’s talent a bit late. Otherwise, if he could have taken Chen Mu as his disciple, that would have been the most ideal person for him. Achieving Divine Monarch in just over ten thousand Boundary Years, although not certain to surpass him in the future, he was sure that stepping into the Eighth Layer Heaven would not be a significant obstacle for Chen Mu.

Unfortunately, Chen Mu was born on the frontier of the Fan Gu Space Domain, in an inconspicuous marginal world. By the time Chen Mu shone and caught his eye, Chen Mu had already ascended to the God Realm and received the heritage of Jianmu Divine Monarch, becoming the disciple of Jianmu Divine Monarch. At that time, Jianmu Divine Monarch had not yet fallen, merely in a difficult situation, so Fan Gu Divine Monarch refrained from making further plans.

Yet even so, he always kept a close eye on Chen Mu, guiding him to join Fan Gu Palace, and directly bestowed a hundred thousand Fan Gu Orders to Chen Mu to exchange for resources and Secret Techniques. At that time, Chen Mu had not yet entered the Fifth Layer Heaven. In his eyes, a hundred thousand Fan Gu Orders were more than enough for Chen Mu’s short-term consumption.

As a result, Chen Mu’s rise in speed still greatly exceeded his expectations. Even though he already had a high regard for Chen Mu, he never imagined that Chen Mu could achieve Divine Monarch in just over ten thousand Boundary Years. This talent surpassed even his own in those days.

In fact,

the hundred thousand Fan Gu Orders he initially gave to Chen Mu had hardly been spent by Chen Mu to this day.

And now that Chen Mu had already achieved Divine Monarch, a mere hundred thousand Fan Gu Orders was naturally nothing in Chen Mu’s eyes. For a Divine Monarch, as long as they are willing to explore some Secret Realms, acquiring resources worth a hundred thousand Fan Gu Orders would be an easy task.

“Are you here to exchange for a suitable Divine Power Secret Technique?”

Fan Gu Divine Monarch smiled and asked Chen Mu.

“Indeed.”

Chen Mu did not conceal it, simply saying: “I have already comprehended the Mystical Fusion. Next, I will consolidate my foundation and comprehend each mystical one by one to lay the groundwork for the Divine Monarch Level.”

Fan Gu Divine Monarch nodded and said: “Hmm, I actually don’t like to dominate and govern, otherwise, after leaving with my mentor, I wouldn’t have been away for so many long years. It was only later after encountering some things that I returned here.”

“The Fan Gu Palace that I founded is rarely mobilized to command those True Gods. The rules are very lenient. Rather than saying it dominates the greatest force in Fan Gu Space Domain, it is more like providing a platform for God Realm beings in Fan Gu Space Domain to connect.”

After hearing Fan Gu Divine Monarch’s words, Chen Mu’s expression slightly changed.

He actually believed Fan Gu Divine Monarch’s claim of not having interest in dominating and governing a Space Domain. After all, Fan Gu Divine Monarch indeed operates more like a hands-off Shopkeeper in Fan Gu Space Domain, almost not managing affairs of the Fan Gu Space Domain, acting freely and leisurely.

The only things that concerned Fan Gu Divine Monarch were probably those disciples he valued and the abundant resources of the Fan Gu Space Domain.

Compared to these, what truly surprised Chen Mu was the mention of the ’mentor’ by Fan Gu Divine Monarch. This was something he had never heard of before. Could it be that Fan Gu Divine Monarch, the Divine Monarch Overlord at the peak of the Eighth Layer Heaven, also had a mentor?

Then again,

The Immortal Road in the God Realm, without guidance, might still be passable, but it often proves very tortuous.

Judging by what Fan Gu Divine Monarch implied, it seemed a long time ago, he was born in the Fan Gu Space Domain and unexpectedly encountered a certain being traveling the Endless Universe, who valued him and took him on as a disciple, leaving the Fan Gu Space Domain together.

This also matched other things that Chen Mu had learned. As far as he knew, Fan Gu Divine Monarch did leave Fan Gu Space Domain, and upon his return one day, he was already the Divine Monarch Overlord at the Eighth Layer Heaven. After a great battle, all ruling forces of the Fan Gu Space Domain were expelled, and he took over the entire Fan Gu Space Domain alone, up to this day.

However, regarding that mysterious mentor of Fan Gu Divine Monarch, no one has ever heard Fan Gu Divine Monarch mention it.

Chen Mu, after being surprised, quickly regained his calm. After all, Fan Gu Divine Monarch having a mentor does not necessarily indicate the mentor’s Realm is exceptionally high. According to Fan Gu Divine Monarch’s words, when he became a disciple, he was probably just a small figure in Fan Gu Space Domain. While the mentor might have been able to travel the Endless Universe, any Eighth Layer Heaven God Realm Overlord could easily do that.

Even a Seven Layer Heavenly Divine Monarch, if not competing for resources, could travel various Space Domains with little disturbance.

Fan Gu Divine Monarch, being the Divine Monarch Overlord at the peak of the Eighth Layer Heaven, might have already matched or even surpassed his mentor in strength and Realm, hence never mentioning his mentor since there’s no significance.

Just like Chen Mu now, only a step away from Jianmu Divine Monarch, or even surpassing Jianmu Divine Monarch is just a matter of time. Jianmu Divine Monarch, after countless years, remains stuck at the peak of the Seventh Layer Heaven, unable to progress, but he will not stop at the Eighth Layer Heaven’s threshold.

Such is the Immortal Road, often a single threshold, a bottleneck, may cause a Divine Monarch to never cross it in a lifetime, even if it takes billions of Boundary Years.

After entering the Divine Monarch Level, the longevity far exceeds the imagination of mortal beings. A Wan Jie is a Yi Ji, and a Yi Ji exceeds ten trillion Boundary Years. Not to mention the mortal beings of the Da Xuan World, even the Da Xuan World itself, compared to an ancient Divine Monarch, is like a newborn baby. But among these ancient Divine Monarchs, those trapped at the peak of the Seventh Layer Heaven are numerous.
