''Archaic pce! Immortal abode! Both of them most be the same. It means the imperial family is doing its preparation secretly without informing others about the details.
As for the appearance of space crack and devil race, it most be rted to the gate of Archaic pce but the imperial family is keeping everyone in dark to gain an unfair advantage'', Zhan Chen thought to himself after sending Long Xinyu with Sun Xiun.
He looked at the three beauties who were looking at him worriedly. An evil glint appeared on his face as he observed their beautiful features.
"Experts will gather from various ces when it will be time for the opening of the Archaic pce. I don''t know how much time I still have but I must prepare myself. A ce linked to immortal world will never be simple. So, I must be at my best whilepeting with the geniuses of the immortal world", he thought to himself.
The rest of the night was beautiful as Zhan Chen busied himself in dual cultivation. His hardwork could only be imagined as sweet moans kepting out constantly from the closed rooms.
------------------
"Knock, knock", Zhan Chen knocked the door of Sun Xiun in the early morning. He wanted to check Long Xinyu unless she went and cause some more trouble.
"Coming", the voice of Sun Xiun came and few momentstter, the door to her room was opened. "Zhan Chen", a smile appeared on her face after she saw him infront of her door.
"Good morning Xiun", Zhan Chen greeted her and together they entered her room. A speechless look appeared on his face after he saw the deeply asleep creature on Sun Xiun''s bed.
"This little girl is too reckless. If it goes like this, then sooner orter, she would be caught. If it was before yesterday night, then I have nothing to do with her. But now, after knowing her, I can''t let here to any harm", Zhan Chen spoke.
"Yes, I also don''t want her to be caught. We need to hide her properly. Otherwise, the Spirit pce experts may sniff her out", Sun Xiun added.
"Xiun, how about staying here today? I will ask Xintong to apany you. Together, both of you can look after her untill I return from the venue of the grand sectpetition", Zhan Chen spoke.
"Okay, I will stay with her", Sun Xiun nodded her head as an affectionate look appeared on her face. Zhan Chen smiled and kissed her gently before walking out of her room.
"Good morning senior", Zhan Chen greeted Lu Tai Cang after seeing him in the main hall. Lu Tai Cang nodded his head slightly but didn''t speak anything. There was a thoughtful look on his face as he seemed to be disturbed by something.
"Senior, is there some problem?", Zhan Chen couldn''t hold his curiousity after a while and asked Lu Tai Cang. Lu Tai Cang came out of his reverie and finally looked towards Zhan Chen.
"News hase from the Eastern region. The space crack in the Red mountain is widening rapidly and before long our continent may face a huge number of devils from the shadows", he spoke while looking towards Zhan Chen with a serious look on his face.<sub> </sub>
"So senior, what is the decision of your n? Is the Lu n nning to assist the imperial family?", Zhan Chen asked Lu Tai Cang after hearing the information.
"I don''t know. This matter is so important that even the n head can''t decide it on his own. The matter will most probably go to the ancestoral pce of my n", Lu Tai Cang replied.
"Good, a hurried decision will only create trouble for your n", Zhan Chen spoke. He wanted to warn Lu Tai Cang about the actual danger but he decided against it after thinking for a while.
''The true danger is not the devils but the experts who are going to descend from the immortal world. I must increase my cultivation as much as I can before the door to the Archaic pce appears'', Zhan Chen thought to himself.
"Zhan Chen, do you know the rewards of the Grand sectpetition?", Lu Tai Cang asked after staying silent for a while. Zhan Chen shook his head as he had yet to think about the rewards.
"Reward for this year''s grand sectpetition is really marvelous. All the nine powers has decided to contribute. So, the top ten participants will gain the maximum benefit out of thepetetion", Lu Tai Cang spoke.
"Beside the cultivation resources, top ten participants are allowed to enter the treasurednd of various powers. These ces are full of opportunities and you can speed up your cultivation if you manage to cultivate in such ces", he further added.
"Oh! Treasurednds! I wonder what sort of opportunities are there in the treasurednds of the nine powers?", Zhan Chen asked with a curious look on his face.
"All the nine powers have unique treasurends of their own. Our Lu n has an earth pond which is really suitable for those who have earth element affinity. Huo n has sacred altar of fire, Shen n has an ancient graveyard. Other six powers also have their own treasurednds which you will know after you go to visit them", Lu Tai Cang spoke.
"But the nine peak powers aside, what I want you to remind is that there is also the Spirit pce. Their treasurednd is the most ancient one and it is really helpful for those who are facing bottlenecks in their cultivation.
In general time, they will never allow an outsider to their treasurednd but this time, they have no option. You are in for a huge surprise when you visit the treasurednd of the Spirit pce", Lu Tai Cang added further.
Their conversation continued untill thest of Zhan Chen''s women shown up. Zhan Chen asked Lin Xintong to stay and she happily agreed to his request. Lu Tai Cang felt some confusion but he didn''t want to intrude upon Zhan Chen''s privacy.
He took out his flying treasure and helped all the girls to board it. After everyone took a seat, he entered inside his flying treasure and took the flying boat into high in the sky.
The venue of the grand sectpetition was already bustling when Zhan Chen ''s groupnded on the hill. Lu n group was already present on the hill. Their eyes lit up after they saw the arrival of Zhan Chen''s group.
Zhan Chen greeted the stoic looking second elder and walked towards Lu Mingxi. A shy expression appeared on her face as she saw him walking towards her.
