Chapter 1786

In addition to the tomb keeper's residence, there were also rooms specially reserved for Zi Chen and the others in the city center.

The tomb keeper led the group to a luxuriously decorated reception hall. As soon as they were seated, beautiful maids served tea and snacks.

After eight thousand years of development, this place had changed greatly. It was no longer something a small tribe could compare to.

These maids were curiously sizing up Zi Chen and the others, especially the legendary leader Zi Chen. His reputation in the Great Dragon World was even greater than in the Battlefield of Despair.

It was said that in these years, as the trading empire took shape, huge benefits were revealed to everyone. The reason why the natives had not been swallowed up by the Invaders was because of the strength of the patriarch and the prestige of the legendary leader Zi Chen.

The tomb keeper also said that as long as Zi Chen's name remained on the Marshal List, there would be no war in the Great Dragon World.

However, Zi Chen had disappeared for eight thousand years. Although his name was still high on the Marshal List, the natives were still worried.

Fortunately, Zi Chen had returned safely.

"What happened?"

After taking a seat, the tomb keeper impatiently asked.

This was definitely a secret of the Battlefield of Despair. Not only did the tomb keeper want to know, but all the Invaders and natives also wanted to know.

The strongest experts of each race would gather on each dragon boat. Back then, no one knew whether these experts were alive or dead, but this time, everyone knew that they were dead from the disappearance of their names on the Marshal List.

This matter caused an unimaginable sensation in the Battlefield of Despair.

Zi Chen faintly sighed and said, "All of this was a conspiracy. When I first boarded the dragon boat, a voice sounded from the dragon boat, and the battle began … …"

Zi Chen recounted the events from beginning to end.

"So that's how it is."

The tomb keeper and Viper both sighed. They did not expect such a thing to happen.

Viper found it unbelievable and asked, "Could it be that those experts who boarded the dragon boat were all killed by the puppets?"

Zi Chen nodded and said, "That's right. Other than the few of us, it seems that no one else is alive."

Mu Shou sighed and said, "I didn't expect there to be so many natives in the depths of the world. Moreover, they are all true powerhouses. I could feel the call, but I was worried, so I didn't go. If I could go, we might be able to meet again in Extreme Jin."

"You should. At that time, you might have already broken through to the sector lord realm."

Mu Shou suddenly thought of something and said, "A few years ago, we heard a dragon's roar. That dragon's roar spread throughout the entire Battlefield of Despair. After that, there were rules all around the Dragon Tomb, completely sealing it. Could it be related to the Thunder Dragon Sovereign?"

Zi Chen asked, "What happened in the Dragon's Tomb?"

The Tomb Keeper said, "The rules have sealed off the Dragon's Tomb, and the Western Giant Dragon no longer appears."

"Oh, there's such a thing?"

Calculating the time, Zi Chen recalled the resounding and distant dragon roar of Lei Long and said, "This should be a kind of protection for the dragon tomb. Perhaps it really was done by Lei Long."

Mu Shou asked, "If that's the case, when the Thunder Dragon Sovereign returns from refining the Dragon Pearl, the world rules will be complete."

"That's what Lei Long said back then. Since the world is complete, you guys won't be restricted by the Domain Realm and can break through to the sector lord realm here."

Mu Shou invited Zi Chen to the Dragon's Tomb to investigate, but was rejected by Zi Chen. If this was really done by Lei Long, he naturally had his own plans.

Even if it wasn't related to Lei Long, when he finished refining the Dragon Pearl and became the ruler of the world, he would naturally be able to deal with this matter.

Next, Mu Shou talked about what happened in the Giant Dragon World.

At this moment, a voice came from outside, "Reporting to Patriarch, there are some people outside, saying they want to see Lord Zi Chen."

"Oh, they came quite quickly."

Mu Shou frowned and immediately released his spiritual sense. After sensing the people outside, he turned to look at Zi Chen and said, "They are from those factions."

Zi Chen was very clear about their intentions, so he directly rejected, "Tell them I'm not free right now."

"Yes."

After sending away the person, Zi Chen said, "Have they been obedient all these years?"

Mu Shou smiled, "They have some ideas in their hearts, but they have never taken action. Now that you've returned, I'm afraid they don't even have any ideas."

...

...

Those who wanted to see Zi Chen were the factions of the Imperial Sky Region. Other than the humans, there were also the Soul Devouring Race and Dax Race.

After hearing the news of Zi Chen's return, they immediately gathered to see Zi Chen. On one hand, they wanted to know if Zi Chen and the others had broken through, and on the other hand, they wanted to know what happened in the depths of the world.

However, Zi Chen didn't want to see them, so they had no choice but to return first.

They had already heard that Man Shi heavily injured Wang Kun, who was ranked ninth on the Marshal Board, with a single slap.

"Although I don't dare to say if they have broken through, it's worth confirming that their battle strength is much stronger than when they left."

"That's right. Zi Chen and the others have already become the true kings of this region. Zi Chen's achievements have clearly surpassed Longfei's."

The two alien races discussed Zi Chen incessantly. On the other hand, the four factions among the humans didn't seem to be in high spirits. They were even a little worried.

...

...

While chatting, Viper suddenly said, "The Wang Clan seems a little strange recently."

Zi Chen asked with interest, "What's strange?"

Viper said, "They've been privately purchasing Royal Weapons and recruiting experts."

"Privately."

"Yes, the very secretive kind. I've traded with them many times before I accidentally heard about this. They don't limit the number of experts they're recruiting, and they need a lot of people. It seems like they're going to start a war."

Zi Chen asked doubtfully, "Start a war? The situation in the Battlefield of Despair is already unstable."

Viper said, "It's still the same as before. There's nothing unstable about it."

Zi Chen asked again, "Only the Wang Clan is purchasing weapons and recruiting experts. The other clans haven't made any moves."

"I haven't heard about it. I don't think so."

Zi Chen mumbled, "That's strange. Why are they recruiting experts from other races for no reason? It's not like there's a civil war … Hmm."

Suddenly, Zi Chen's expression changed as he thought of a certain possibility.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Zi Chen's expression wasn't right, everyone was puzzled.

"The Wang Clan must have their reasons for doing this. Let's go look for Old Man Schenker. He should know what the Wang Clan's goal is." Zi Chen stood up and asked, "Is the transportation channel from back then still there?"

"It's still there. Come with me."

Tomb Keeper stood up as well and said, "This channel was the foundation back then and can be considered the key to our rise. It's very memorable, so I've always kept it. There's someone there watching over it."

In Zi Chen's opinion, the Wang Clan's actions were very suspicious. As for why Viper didn't notice it, it was because the other party was a native and didn't care about the Imperial Sky Region.

However, Old Man Schenker was different. He was from the Imperial Sky Region and had always been well-informed. He must know why the Wang Clan was recruiting so many experts.

Other than that, the Wang Clan's actions gave Zi Chen a bad feeling.

When they arrived at the transportation channel, there were indeed a few natives guarding it. When they saw Zi Chen and Tomb Keeper, they were a little surprised and quickly bowed.

Seeing how anxious Zi Chen was, Tomb Keeper said directly, "Open the door. I want to activate the transportation channel."

A guard went forward and opened the door, indicating for everyone to enter.

After entering the door, they were greeted by a spacious hall. In the center of the hall was the transportation channel.

Tomb Keeper pointed at the transportation channel and said, "This is the..."

Tomb Keeper's words came to a sudden halt as his expression turned very grim.

Zi Chen looked at Tomb Keeper and said, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with the transportation channel?"

Tomb Keeper's grim expression turned grim. "The transportation channel was destroyed by force."

"Destroyed by force? Something happened to Schenker's Little Store."

Tomb Keeper shook his head and said, "No, it was destroyed from my side."

After saying that, he walked out furiously and said to the group of guards, "Has anyone come in during this period of time?"

Hearing that, the group of guards was stunned and said doubtfully, "No one."

"No one can destroy the transportation channel for no reason. Tell me, who was the last one who came in?"

"The last one... Oh, I remember now. It was Dick. That was six years ago. He said that he was here to maintain the transportation channel."

Tomb Keeper was furious when he heard that. Ignoring his usual dignity as a chief, he said furiously, "Bullsh * t! I built the transportation channel myself. When did I say that it needed maintenance? That damned Dick must be the one who did it. Where is he? Find him."

"Lord Dick went out to train six years ago."

Zi Chen walked out with a cold expression on his face.

Tomb Keeper said guiltily, "It's my fault for not being strict enough. In these years, because there was no war, the natives got close to those invaders. They must have been tempted."

"It's not your fault."

Eight thousand years had passed. If the Wang Clan wanted to do something, even Zi Chen wouldn't be able to stop them, let alone Tomb Keeper.

Zi Chen said in a deep voice, "If it was six years ago, according to the flow of time, only a month has passed in the Battlefield of Despair. Can the transportation channel still be repaired?"

"Yes, but the channel is severely damaged. It will take a long time to repair it."

"There's no time. Repair the channel first. We'll go directly to Imperial Sky City."

After saying that, Zi Chen left. Suddenly, he stopped and turned his head to ask, "Was there anyone from the Wang Clan among the people who came earlier?"

"I don't think so."

Zi Chen nodded and didn't say anything else. Light flashed around him and he teleported away with the group.

Now that Zi Chen had the domain world, he could teleport even further. It didn't take long for them to reach Imperial Sky City where Schenker was.

With a flash of light, Zi Chen and the others appeared in the sky above the transaction channel. Then, they landed on the ground.

The forbidden space array above the transaction channel didn't have any effect on them.

"Who's there?"

This scene was immediately noticed by the guards in the city. In an instant, more than ten people appeared and surrounded Zi Chen's group with weapons in hand.

Zi Chen swept his gaze across the crowd and said, "Bring me to the transportation channel to Imperial Sky City."
