: Deep in the palace.

Xia Emperor Xia Chengyu hurried to a pitch-black hall and pushed open the door..

"Grandfather, a Foundation Establishment cultivator has appeared in the Imperial City and attacked at the West City Gate..

”

"What's the point of panicking? He's just a Foundation Establishment cultivator. With me around, how can he overturn such a huge Imperial City?.

Xia Yanwu opened his eyes and looked at his grandson disappointingly. Then he closed his eyes again."Just send someone to report such a small matter next time. As the king of a country, don't do everything yourself.".

”

"Grandson understands..

"The Lord is merciful..

Xia Yanwu seemed to recall something and opened his eyes to look at his grandson again. A moment later, he said,

"Cheng Yu, your personality is really not suitable to be a king of a country. After Wei 'er establishes his foundation, you should retire..

”

Xia Chengyu was stunned and a little uncomfortable, but when he thought that Wei 'er was his favorite son, he nodded his head: "It's all up to my grandfather to decide.".

”

Xia Yanwu nodded and waved his hand, as if the change of kings of a country was nothing more than a trivial matter in his eyes..

After watching his grandson leave, Xia Yanwu's eyes were dyed black. He looked in the direction of the west gate.

"You're only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, yet you dare to be presumptuous in the Imperial City. Humph…If Wei 'er hadn't been cultivating at the altar and needed my protection, you would have never returned..

”

Heavenly Palace of the Imperial Palace, the residence of the Great Xia King.

Xia Chengyu had just returned when a figure descended from the roof and knelt respectfully on one knee.

"Reporting to Emperor Xia, that Foundation Establishment cultivator has retreated from the Imperial City..

”

"Yes, have you found out why he appeared in the Imperial City?" Xia Chengyu asked..

"This…"

"Say.

”

"We saw that Foundation Establishment realm expert attack Fallen Feathers Sect's inspector..

”

"Oh? Dog bites dog?" Xia Chengyu sneered and ordered,"Pay close attention to the movements of the Imperial City. When sending people to pacify the people, spread the news that the other party is the six immortal sects. I want to make the six immortal sects notorious..

”

"Emperor Xia is wise. I'll do it now..

”

Rogue Cultivators leave.

However, just as Xia Chengyu was preparing to review the memorial, another rogue cultivator under his command came to report. At the same time, a loud boom came from the Imperial City again..

"Emperor Xia, that Foundation Establishment cultivator has returned and is heading towards the Imperial Palace..

”

Xia Chengyu immediately stood up and ordered,"

"Order Commander Zuo Gu to lead the rogue cultivators to prepare for the attack. Order the imperial guards to mobilize…"

The order was given, and he himself quickly headed for the black hall in the depths of the imperial palace. The Foundation Establishment cultivator headed straight for the imperial palace. He was not sure if the other party had discovered anything, but he had to leave this matter to his grandfather..

Soon Xia Chengyu arrived outside the black hall again..

"Grandfather, that Foundation Establishment cultivator has come to the palace..

”

The doors of the hall opened and Xia Yanwu walked out..

"Got it. Let's see what he wants. Let Zuo Gu and the others probe him. If he really has some motive, then let him stay in the palace forever…"

Xia Yanwu had just finished speaking when his expression suddenly changed drastically. He roared angrily and turned into a ball of thick black gas.

"How dare you! You're courting death!"

Xia Chengyu realized it later and his expression changed drastically.

"Something happened to the underground altar. Could it be that this person has discovered the secret of our royal family?"

Then he turned into a shadow and flew away..

：.

：……

After Dong Xing killed a few rogue cultivators, he jumped down to the pit that was opened dozens of meters by the spiritual tool. As soon as he landed, he found the bead that Wang Fu had left behind. He immediately understood that Wang Fu had found the child bead of the child tracking plate. He couldn't help but be shocked and angry. He swept his divine sense and tried to make some final struggles..

However, at this moment, his spiritual awareness was bounced back heavily by the soil in front of him..

"Kid, where are you going to escape?"

Dong Xing didn't even think about it and took out his spiritual weapon to smash it over..

Boom!

The earth and rocks exploded, and Wang Fu's figure was not seen. Instead, an empty space appeared..

Dong Xing immediately summoned his defensive spirit weapon to surround his body and charged into the pitch-black space..

He focused his eyes and his pupils contracted. He said in shock,

"This is…such a huge altar!"

In this huge space of nearly a thousand feet, earth and stone were intertwined, and ghost flames were swaying. An altar with a radius of 100 feet was rooted in the center of the space. Dense runes were everywhere, shining with strange lights. Black and red mixed together. Eight of the nine stone pillars carved with dragon patterns were burning with a huge ghost fire, adding a little mystery to the altar..

Around the altar, five blood pools of unknown depth were bubbling blood continuously. The thick smell of blood that made people vomit filled the entire space..

White bones piled up into mountains and skulls scattered everywhere. This hellish scene made Dong Xing's scalp tingle even though he had lived for more than a hundred years..

He looked at the young man sitting cross-legged in the middle of the altar and felt a chill..

"I didn't expect that there would be such an evil altar hidden beneath the Grand Xia Imperial Palace. It's definitely a demonic method. Compared to it, my Dong clan is really nothing..

”

"Judging from that person's aura, he should be cultivating with the help of the altar. Hmm? Is he at the Foundation Establishment stage?" Dong Xing's face lit up with joy, and he even forgot about Wang Fu."This altar can help Qi Refinement Realm Foundation Establishment? If that's the case, wouldn't it be able to increase the Foundation Establishment stage of our clan by several times?"

"Haha…Capture the kid on the altar first and force him to reveal the secret of the altar..

”

With just a thought, Dong Xing immediately flew up like a black eagle and reached out his hand to grab the person on the altar. A mere Qi Refinement Realm cultivator could be captured easily, not to mention that it was at the critical moment of breaking through to Foundation Establishment, so he had no strength to resist..

Not everyone is as slippery as Wang Fu!

However, just as Dong Xing was about to succeed, an angry roar suddenly resounded through the entire underground space..

"How dare you!"

It was Xia Yanwu, who had rushed over. His majestic spiritual energy surged out. Dong Xing exclaimed and had no choice but to stop and retreat..

He looked at her in horror.

"Perfect Foundation Establishment! Who are you?"

"Humph, you barged into my territory and you actually asked me who I am!" Xia Yanwu was almost angered. He did not expect this person to come straight to this place after coming to the Imperial Palace. He even wanted to capture Wei 'er. This was truly unforgivable..

Xia Yanwu glanced at Xia Ziwei. Seeing that his great-grandson was not affected, he heaved a sigh of relief. This was the treasure of their royal family, the only genius with dual spiritual roots. If something happened because of this, wouldn't all these years of training be wasted?

When he thought of this, he was even more furious and immediately slapped him..

Surging black spiritual energy gathered into a huge palm that descended from the sky, sealing Dong Xing's escape route..

Dong Xing's pupils contracted sharply and he could only summon his defensive spirit weapon to block it. With a boom, he was smashed into the wall..

Sensing that the spiritual weapon was not damaged, Dong Xing immediately entered the path he came from and fled outside at high speed..

He thought as he fled:

"So powerful, is this the perfect Foundation Establishment realm? A random spell isn't something I can withstand. I have to escape!"

"This person calls himself 'I am the emperor.' Could he be the emperor of Grand Xia? No, that's not right. The emperor of Grand Xia is Xia Chengyu. Could he be the Xia Emperor from before? The imperial family of Grand Xia is really hidden deep…An incomplete altar can help cultivators establish their foundations. If it's a complete altar, wouldn't it be helpful in forming their Aurous Core?"

"No, I have to escape back to the Dong family. If that's the case, then the glory of my Dong family will come…"
