Chapter 771: Visitors from the Middle Plane, the Eternal Immortal Court

The fifth level is the Pill Hall, where various divine pills and wondrous medicines are refined.

The Sixth to the Eighth levels are the inner palace areas, the residences of the empresses such as Sima Xue.

The highest level, the Ninth level Lun Hui Hall, is where Lin Xuan usually cultivates and contemplates.

The entire imperial palace is guarded by countless Arrays, making it difficult for even Quasi-Emperor level powerhouses to force their way in.

The area around the palace is planted with exotic flowers and rare herbs, and the Spirit Qi is so dense it is almost ready to condense into liquid.

Various rare and exotic beasts move freely within the palace, adding vitality to this imperial palace.

"Your Majesty, the construction of the Imperial Capital is complete," Sima Xue reported.

"The governors of the various realms are also in place and have begun to fulfill their duties."

Lin Xuan nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, from today on, the court is officially opened."

"Issue an order to all realms: the Lun Hui Empire is officially established."

"Promulgate imperial laws and establish a perfect governing system."

After unifying the heavens and myriad realms, Lin Xuan did not indulge in the pleasure of power.

As the Lun Hui Great Emperor, he knew deeply that strength is the foundation of everything.

Power is merely the external manifestation of strength; without sufficient power to support it, even the most glorious empire will collapse with a crash.

After absorbing the Hun Dun origin of Arcturus, he felt that his strength had approached a certain bottleneck.

This is not an ordinary cultivation bottleneck, but the limit of the entire cultivation system.

Quasi-Saint, Saint, Saint King, Saint Emperor—these realms are already the peak within the heavens and myriad realms.

Now, they all seemed somewhat narrow to him, as if trapped in an invisible cage.

"It seems I need to go into seclusion for a period of time," Lin Xuan said to Sima Xue.

"You empresses are responsible for handling the daily affairs of the empire."

"If you encounter major problems, come find me again."

Sima Xue nodded in agreement: "Your Majesty, rest assured, we will handle everything well."

Lin Xuan arrived at the deepest part of the Lun Hui Hall; this is the cultivation secret chamber he specifically opened up.

The secret chamber is built from Lun Hui divine gold, and the surroundings are carved with Lun Hui Dharma Arrays, capable of isolating all external interference.

After sitting cross-legged, Lin Xuan began to carefully study the Hun Dun origin within his body.

This power is different from any energy he had come into contact with before, filled with a primitive and ancient aura.

Through deep realization, he gradually understood the source of this power.

Although Arcturus was called an extraterritorial demon, he actually came from an existence at a higher level than the heavens and myriad realms.

The cultivation system there is completely different, possessing more profound laws and more powerful strength.

As his research deepened, a shocking truth gradually emerged before Lin Xuan.

The heavens and myriad realms they are in are merely the "lower plane" in the vast universe.

Above this, there are "middle planes" and "upper planes," and it is even said that a "primitive Hun Dun realm" exists.

The cultivation system of each level is completely different; a Saint Emperor of the lower plane might only be equivalent to an ordinary cultivator in the middle plane.

This explains why Arcturus could easily suppress the Three Realms Coalition Army.

Although he was not considered top-tier among the extraterritorial demons, he himself came from a higher plane.

"So that's how it is," a light of realization flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes.

"No wonder I always felt I had encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation."

"The laws of the lower plane have limited my further development."

This discovery made Lin Xuan both excited and vigilant.

What he was excited about was that he had found a new goal and challenge, with a broader world waiting to be explored ahead.

What he was vigilant about was that existences from higher planes might descend at any time, posing a threat to the Lun Hui Empire.

Sure enough, at the critical moment of his breakthrough, a strange change occurred.

The wind and clouds over Ten Thousand Demon Island suddenly changed color, and the Void began to shake violently.

A massive spatial rift descended from the sky, tearing the entire horizon apart.

A powerful pressure surged from the rift, making all the powerhouses of the Lun Hui Empire feel terrified.

Sima Xue and the other empresses' expressions changed drastically, and they immediately rushed outside the Lun Hui Hall.

"What is the situation?" Ao Bizhu looked at the sky in shock.

"This kind of pressure is even stronger than Arcturus!"

Athena's prophecy art operated crazily, but she could not see anything clearly.

"My prophecy art is completely ineffective; the opponent's level is too high!"

From the spatial rift, several figures slowly walked out.

These figures were all wearing uniform silver Dharma robes, with brilliant starry sky patterns embroidered on their chests.

Their auras were unfathomable, as if they had merged into one with the entire universe.

Merely standing there made the laws of the lower plane begin to tremble.

Leading them was a man who looked young but had ancient eyes.

His appearance was handsome to the point of perfection, but those eyes contained endless vicissitudes.

Looking down at the Lun Hui Empire below, his tone carried obvious contempt.

"A lower plane has actually produced an existence that has mastered the Lun Hui laws? Interesting."

This condescending attitude made Sima Xue and the others furious.

But the pressure radiating from the opponent made it difficult for them to even speak.

Just at this moment, a long whistle like a dragon's roar echoed from the Lun Hui Hall.

Lin Xuan's figure appeared instantly before the crowd, blocking the path in front of the beauties.

The Law of Lun Hui on his body operated automatically, completely isolating that terrifying pressure.

"Who are you, Excellency? What is your business coming to my Lun Hui Empire?"

Lin Xuan's voice was calm, yet it contained an inviolable majesty.

The moment the young man saw Lin Xuan, a flash of surprise crossed his eyes.

"You can withstand my pressure? It seems you are the one who has mastered the Law of Lun Hui."

"Allow me to introduce myself; I am Emperor Xingchen, an Inspector of the Eternal Immortal Court from the Middle Plane."

"I have been ordered to come and investigate the abnormal fluctuations in the Lower Plane."

Emperor Xingchen—just hearing this name, one knew he was no simple character.

Lin Xuan was vigilant in his heart, but he remained composed on the surface.

"So it is an honored guest from the Middle Plane; I wonder what the results of your investigation are?"

Emperor Xingchen circled Lin Xuan, looking him up and down, the greed in his eyes undisguised.

"The Law of Lun Hui, this is a top-tier law that is extremely rare even in the Middle Plane."

"I never expected that someone in the Lower Plane would be able to master it."

"Hand over the cultivation method for the Law of Lun Hui, and I might consider letting you obtain a place in the Middle Plane."

This condescending tone made anger burn in Lin Xuan's heart.

But he suppressed his rage, wanting to learn more information about the Middle Plane.

"Is the Eternal Immortal Court of the Middle Plane very powerful?" He deliberately acted interested.

Emperor Xingchen smiled triumphantly: "The Eternal Immortal Court rules over one-third of the territory in the Middle Plane."

"It possesses thousands of Emperor-level powerhouses and eighteen Supreme-level existences."

"The Master of the Imperial Court is even a legendary Primordial Saint, who can destroy countless Lower Planes with a single thought."

Through Emperor Xingchen's words, Lin Xuan roughly understood the situation of the Middle Plane.

There were indeed dozens of powerful empires there, and the Eternal Immortal Court was merely one of them.

But even so, its strength far exceeded any force in the Lower Plane.

"What if I am unwilling to hand over the Law of Lun Hui?" Lin Xuan asked tentatively.
