Chapter 83

Regarding these seven great mysteries, Jun Xiaoxiao still had some understanding.

In the Immortal Realm, there were probably few who hadn't heard of them.

The so-called seven great mysteries referred to the seven bizarre legends that circulated in the Immortal Realm.

For example, the legend of the ghost ship in the starry sky, which spoke of a ghost ship at the end of the stars. Anyone who saw that ship, be it a sage, would be bewitched and then board the ship, heading to the end of the Netherworld.

Another example was the rumor of the headless swordsman, a headless figure holding a rusty, blood-dripping sword, wandering aimlessly through various corners of the Immortal Realm. All cultivators who encountered the headless swordsman would suffer misfortune, from ordinary cultivators to the supreme beings, without exception.

Such legends eventually formed the seven great mysteries.

One could say that each of these mysteries represented a secret and taboo aspect of the Immortal Realm.

Generally, no cultivator would willingly get involved with these, as these mysteries were too ominous and bizarre, capable of causing a cultivator to perish or lose their path at any moment.

"Grandfather, do you mean that this bronze fragment is related to one of the seven great mysteries?" Jun Xiaoxiao's eyes flickered as he asked.

"Exactly. Among the seven great mysteries, there is a legend about a Bronze Immortal Palace. This bronze fragment might have come from the Bronze Immortal Palace," Jun Zhantian said solemnly.

"Bronze Immortal Palace?" Jun Xiaoxiao was slightly surprised.

The Bronze Immortal Palace was also one of the seven great mysteries.

It was an extremely bizarre and ominous palace.

Although called an Immortal Palace, many saw it as nothing more than a tomb.

Most of the powerful beings who entered it never returned.

The reason the Bronze Immortal Palace was so attractive was that it was rumored to contain something related to immortals.

Anything related to immortals was enough to make all cultivators flock to it.

Throughout history, countless young supreme beings, regional lords, and sage-level powerhouses had entered the Bronze Immortal Palace, hoping to uncover the secrets of immortality and gain the opportunity to become an immortal.

But the vast majority perished.

Even the few who managed to escape were tight-lipped about what happened inside the palace, as if they were wary of something.

This is why the Bronze Immortal Palace was listed as one of the seven great mysteries.

Jun Zhantian, with a serious tone, said to Jun Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, you have extraordinary talent. Even without taking risks, you can become a sage and a patriarch in the future, and even ascend to the rank of an emperor. You must not put yourself in danger out of curiosity."

Jun Xiaoxiao was now the treasure of the Jun family, the most core existence, and must not have any accidents.

If Jun Xiaoxiao were to seek the traces of the Bronze Immortal Palace just because of a bronze fragment, Jun Zhantian would not agree.

"Hehe, Grandfather, don't be so tense. I was just asking out of curiosity. I didn't expect this fragment to have such a background," Jun Xiaoxiao laughed.

Just as he finished speaking, a mechanical voice from the system echoed in his mind.

"Ding, congratulations, host. A new check-in location has been refreshed. Please check in at the Bronze Immortal Palace!"

Hearing this, Jun Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Was the system trying to dig a pit for him?

Was the Bronze Immortal Palace a place anyone could go to?

However, to be honest, his curiosity was indeed piqued.

He quickly organized his thoughts. Now, he had three check-in locations.

Panwu Ridge, the Palace of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom, and the Bronze Immortal Palace.

The Palace of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom was the easiest, and he could check in there quickly.

Panwu Ridge would require some effort, but it wasn't too difficult.

As for the Bronze Immortal Palace, there was not even a trace of it.

No one knew where the Bronze Immortal Palace would appear next.

So, Jun Xiaoxiao wasn't in a hurry. He had plenty of time to improve himself.

"Thank you, Grandfather, for your explanation. I have some matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave," Jun Xiaoxiao said.

"Xiaoxiao, remember, never go to investigate the seven great mysteries alone. At the very least, let me know," Jun Zhantian instructed.

"Understood," Jun Xiaoxiao nodded.

Subsequently, Jun Xiaoxiao walked out of the Jun family's mountain gate.

In the sky, there were four dense formations.

They were the Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain Guards, each consisting of ten thousand people, totaling forty thousand, all ready to go.

The Wind Shadow Guard wore green armor and wielded curved swords.

The Imperial Forest Guard wore golden armor and held long halberds.

The Fire Cavalry Guard wore red armor, rode on Flame Divine Steeds, and held long spears.

The Mountain God Guard wore black heavy armor and held large shields and battle axes.

The four divine guards were all majestic and full of fighting spirit!

Jun Xiaoxiao looked at them and was very satisfied.

"Master, the Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain Guards, totaling forty thousand, are all ready to go!" Jun Linglong presented the Divine Prince's Order.

Jun Xiaoxiao put away the Divine Prince's Order and nodded calmly, "Very good. This time, I entrust you all with the mission to the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, the four divine guards all saluted Jun Xiaoxiao, kneeling down!

"Wind Shadow Guard, willing to brave fire and water for the Jun family and the Divine Prince!"

"Imperial Forest Guard, willing to brave fire and water for the Jun family and the Divine Prince!"

"Fire Cavalry Guard, willing to brave fire and water for the Jun family and the Divine Prince!"

"Mountain God Guard, willing to brave fire and water for the Jun family and the Divine Prince!"

The four divine guards shouted in unison, their voices echoing like a tiger's roar across thousands of miles!

Their shouts shook the nine heavens, shattering the clouds above!

"Very good. With you all, what can't be accomplished?" Jun Xiaoxiao felt his blood begin to boil.

Which man doesn't have the ambition to unify thousands of troops and dominate the world?

Next, Jun Xiaoxiao boarded a golden war chariot.

A nine-headed lion pulled the golden war chariot into the sky.

Jun Zhangjian, Jun Xuehuang, Jun Wanjie, and Jun Linglong each led one of the four guards, following closely behind.

The group of people and horses moved through the sky in a grand procession!

Along the way, various major forces and cultivators all looked up in shock and suspicion.

"Is that the Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain Guards of the Jun family? Where are they going?"

"I don't know. The Jun family hasn't mobilized their army in a long time. Are they suppressing a rebellion somewhere?"

"That's not right. The one pulling the chariot, could it be the top ancient royal clan, the nine-headed lion?"

"Whoa, the one standing on the golden war chariot is the Divine Prince of the Jun family!"

Many cultivators, seeing the transcendent immortal figure standing with his hands behind his back, drew in a sharp breath, feeling their scalps tingle!

What could make the Divine Prince of the Jun family lead an army?

Many cultivators exchanged glances, understanding the meaning in each other's eyes.

The enemies of the Divine Prince of the Jun family were in for a bad time...

...

Just as Jun Xiaoxiao led the Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain Guards to Fire Province.

The allied forces of the Azure Dragon Ancient Kingdom and two other kingdoms had already penetrated deep into the heart of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom.

All the cities along the way offered no resistance and were directly destroyed by the allied forces.

Bai Yuer also understood that with the current strength of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom, it was impossible to defend the entire kingdom.

The only way was to concentrate their forces and make a final stand outside the capital.

After about ten days, the allied forces of the three ancient kingdoms finally approached the capital of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom.

At this moment, outside the capital of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom.

Banners fluttered in the wind!

Over ten thousand soldiers of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom stood outside the capital, forming a steel wall!

Bai Yuer, who had changed her usual demeanor, wore a red soft armor that accentuated her tight curves.

Her fiery red hair was tied up, revealing a touch of heroic grace amidst her allure.

Around her were some of the generals of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom, all with serious expressions and a hint of unease.

In this almost suffocating atmosphere.

The earth suddenly trembled.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the distance, a terrifying tide of people appeared, a black flood sweeping across the land!

When they saw the vast, endless army,

All the generals of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom had extremely grim faces.

The ministers of the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom were even more disheartened.

"The Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom is finished..." an old minister said with a sad look.

Bai Yuer, gripping her sword tightly, her beautiful face showing a hint of despair, gazed into the distance.

"Is there really no way out?"

Bai Yuer's eyes looked into the distance, as if hoping to see a figure appear.

But there was nothing there...
