Chapter 325: Visiting True God Jinpeng of the Heavenly Palace

"Heavenly Palace!"

Ye Tian still decided to join the Heavenly Palace.

The reason he chose the somewhat weaker Heavenly Palace was that the Heavenly Palace inherited a portion of the Heavenly Court's foundation; even if its strength was not quite up to par, its foundation was substantial, and it might contain many top-tier inheritances.

Although the Earth Alliance was old, in reality, during the Primordial Era, the Earth Alliance was merely an ordinary faction, belonging to an organization of rogue cultivators at the time; it was only because some True Gods without any background relied on each other that the Earth Alliance was formed.

Furthermore, after the Ancient War, when the Heavenly Court and the Underworld collapsed and were heavily targeted by the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon, many remnants flocked to the Earth Alliance, a True God faction, which allowed the Earth Alliance to develop and surpass the Heavenly Palace.

Moreover, today, the Earth Alliance only has a large number of True Gods, but in terms of elites, it is not necessarily stronger than the Heavenly Palace.

Ye Tian was not looking for a first-rate True God faction to serve as a backer, but rather to use a first-rate faction to understand the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon and his current situation, so the Heavenly Palace was the most suitable first-rate True God faction.

Of course, wanting to join a first-rate faction like the Heavenly Palace is not something one can do just because one wants to.

Every True God organization is extremely strict about inviting members; otherwise, if they were to recruit a True God indiscriminately and it ended up affecting the entire faction, that would be disastrous.

For instance, there was once a True God faction that recruited a True God who had defected to the Outer Realm Heavenly Demon, which led to the entire faction being sabotaged by that True God and eventually wiped out.

Therefore, all major True God organizations strictly control the quality and quantity of their True Gods and will not recruit them indiscriminately.

Especially for a True God like Ye Tian who had just ascended, even if he was incredibly monstrous, it was not easy to get in.

If there were a referrer, it would be slightly easier.

Ye Tian did not know many True Gods; the Dragon Race's Dragon King of the Heavenly River counted as one, but the Dragon King of the Heavenly River's connections could not influence the Heavenly Palace.

Therefore, the Dragon King of the Heavenly River could not help him.

"I can only choose to visit a certain True God of the Heavenly Palace!"

Ye Tian thought to himself.

Jinpeng Shan.

This was the dojo of True God Jinpeng. True God Jinpeng did not build a True God Realm; he resided here for a long time and cultivated one disciple after another here.

His disciples were all avian lifeforms containing the bloodline of the Heavenly Peng clan, and several of them had already achieved the position of True God.

And True God Jinpeng was one of the members of the Heavenly Palace, his strength reaching the level of an Invincible True God, and he held a certain status within the Heavenly Palace.

On this day.

Ye Tian came alone to visit True God Jinpeng, and was reported by True God Jinpeng's servant.

"Human Race Ye Tian!"

Upon learning this, True God Jinpeng pondered for a while.

He had heard of Ye Tian; after all, Ye Tian was previously one of the few Heaven-Defying Demigods in the Earth Cave World, and his reputation resounded throughout the entire Earth Cave World, so he knew of him after paying a little attention.

Now, Ye Tian was already a True God, and his strength would certainly not be weak.

However, he had no interaction with Ye Tian, and Ye Tian's visit left him very puzzled.

But such a heaven-defying genius would have extremely high future achievements and was very likely to reach the combat power of a Heaven-Defying True God, so he naturally had to meet him.

Consequently, True God Jinpeng allowed Ye Tian to enter Jinpeng Shan and treated Ye Tian with Divine Medicine-grade divine tea.

"True God Ye Tian, this is the Golden Blood Tea from our Jinpeng Shan, which only matures once every ten thousand years."

True God Jinpeng introduced.

Ye Tian took a sip and savored it carefully.

"Good tea, better than any tea I have ever tasted."

Ye Tian commented.

Immediately, they moved on to the main topic.

Ye Tian spoke: "True God Jinpeng, the reason I came to visit you this time is mainly because there is a matter I need your help with."

"What matter?"

True God Jinpeng did not agree immediately; he had no relationship with Ye Tian, so there was naturally no need to help him.

If it were a very troublesome matter, he would certainly refuse directly.

Ye Tian smiled and said: "I wish to join the Heavenly Palace and hope you can provide a recommendation."

"Join the Heavenly Palace!" True God Jinpeng did not expect that Ye Tian came to him for this matter, so he immediately said: "True God Ye Tian, if it were in the past, you wouldn't even need to ask; the Heavenly Palace would have taken the initiative to invite you to join, but the timing is not right. Recently, all major first-rate factions have stopped proactively inviting True Gods to join. Originally, as a Heaven-Defying Demigod, once you broke through to the True God realm, a group of first-rate True Gods would inevitably have scrambled to invite you. But until now, there has been no movement; you should have noticed this, right!"

Ye Tian frowned; he indeed had this doubt.

After all, even King Xia had factions inviting him; as a Heaven-Defying Demigod who broke through to the True God realm, his future potential went without saying, yet no faction had invited him.

It was understandable that second-rate True God factions were not qualified to invite him, but it could not be that first-rate True God factions looked down on him.

Now that True God Jinpeng had raised this issue, it instantly made him feel a sense of curiosity.

"True God Jinpeng, why is this?"

Ye Tian asked for guidance.

True God Jinpeng shook his head slightly, "I cannot disclose this matter for the time being. I can only say that the Earth Cave World is currently in a critical period. Second-rate True God factions are not yet aware of it, but first-rate True God factions are all very tense. At this critical moment, they do not want any problems to arise because of a new member. If you wait another few decades or a hundred years, you won't need to ask; the Heavenly Palace will immediately come to invite you to join."

"If I want to join the Heavenly Palace now, is there any way?" Ye Tian asked.

"Yes!" True God Jinpeng gave an affirmative answer: "Unless you can bring benefits to the Heavenly Palace and give the Heavenly Palace a reason it cannot refuse."

"What about the combat power of a Supreme True God!"

Ye Tian said.

"The combat power of a Supreme True God!!!" True God Jinpeng was extremely surprised.

He naturally knew what the combat power of a Supreme True God meant; even the Heavenly Palace did not have many Supreme True Gods!

The Heavenly Palace possessed two Heaven-Defying True Gods, thirteen Supreme True Gods, and over a hundred Invincible True Gods, but many of the True Gods did not have much lifespan left and were in a state where they could not fight, all trying to find ways to prolong their lives or remaining in a sealed state.

The combat power that could actually fight was only about two-thirds of the total.

Therefore, the combat power of a Supreme True God was very important to the Heavenly Palace and was enough to raise the Heavenly Palace's strength by a significant margin.

"True God Ye Tian, what do you mean by the combat power of a Supreme True God?" True God Jinpeng asked.

"I possess the combat power of a Supreme True God; this should be enough to join the Heavenly Palace, right!"

In order to join the Heavenly Palace, Ye Tian simply revealed his strength.

"How is this possible?"

True God Jinpeng could not believe it.

Ye Tian had only broken through to True God not long ago; how could he possess the combat power of a Supreme True God?

He suspected that Ye Tian had never seen a Supreme True God and had misjudged his own strength.

"True God Jinpeng, it is rumored that you possess the combat power of an Invincible True God and are not far from the combat power of a Supreme True God. You and I can spar, which will naturally prove whether my words are true!" Ye Tian said with a smile.

"Fine!"

True God Jinpeng agreed.

He actually wanted to know if Ye Tian's strength truly possessed the combat power of a Supreme True God; even if he had strength not weaker than his own, he would recommend Ye Tian to the higher-ups of the Heavenly Palace to join the Heavenly Palace.
