792: Chapter 781 Commander of the Mystic Guards!!

"Qin Yan has a clean background, is a Prodigy in talent, calm and unhurried in character, and is also a triple cultivator. I believe we should strengthen his protection."

Jian Wuhen was the first to speak, his voice steady and his expression calm.

His gaze swept past the Old Holy Lord and the other venerable elders.

Qin Yan had contributed to his winning bet; it was only reasonable for him to speak up on his behalf.

Moreover, this was not favoritism, but simply being realistic.

Qin Yan's talent was worthy of the Holy Land investing more protection in him.

"I believe we should also increase the resources allocated to Qin Yan to accelerate his growth even faster," Yun Nishang spoke up.

Yun Nishang spoke up.

As the Head of the Outer Court, she had watched Qin Yan progress step by step from the Outer Court to the Inner Court, and from an ordinary Disciple to a Prodigy.

She understood Qin Yan better than anyone else present.

She knew his potential and she knew his shortcomings.

He had no background, no Family support, and had to rely entirely on himself.

Therefore, the Holy Land should give him more resources and support.

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

One elder after another expressed their agreement.

Peak Master Gu Hanxi of Zixu Peak also nodded slightly, expressing her agreement.

To be honest, she really hadn't expected this. Back then, she had only gone to the Eternal Song Star Realm to visit her young Disciple. Along the way, she witnessed a battle, felt that Qin Yan possessed some talent, and thus gave him a taixuan token.

She still remembered that battle to this day—Qin Yan had fought against many opponents alone, his Spear Technique fierce and sharp.

At the time, she felt this young man had potential and was worth nurturing.

Thus, she gave him the opportunity to enter the Taixuan Holy Land.

But she truly never expected that Qin Yan's talent would be so Prodigy-like!

To be able to defeat a Seventh-Grade Grandmaster with the strength of a Rank 6 Peak—even ordinary True Emperor experts could not achieve this in their youth!

True Emperor experts, existences standing at the Peak of martial arts, were also peerless Prodigies in their youth and leaders among their peers.

But defeating a Grandmaster at the Rank 6 Peak was a capability for cross-level combat that not every True Emperor possessed.

In other words, this boy Qin Yan already possessed the potential of a True Emperor!

This was also why they had convened this Minor Taixuan Meeting.

If he were just an ordinary Prodigy, it would not require these venerable elders to discuss it in person.

But Qin Yan was different; his potential had already surpassed the scope of an ordinary Prodigy.

His future was already worth the Holy Land investing in advance.

"Alright, since that is the case, we will arrange for a Mysterious Guards Commander to protect Qin Yan in secret. As for resources, he will receive the same as other Prodigies. However, we can grant Qin Yan a special privilege—once he achieves a Breakthrough to the Grandmaster Realm and can withstand the erosion of the power of time, we will give him a slot to Cultivate in the Temple of Time."

said the current Holy Lord of the Holy Land, Xuan Tian.

A Mysterious Guards Commander was of the mid-to-high level among the Mysterious Guards, an existence at the Venerable level.

Arranging a Mysterious Guards Commander to secretly protect Qin Yan was enough to show the importance the Holy Land placed on him.

As for the slot for the Temple of Time, it was even more incomparably precious.

The Temple of Time was one of the top Cultivate Holy Lands in the Heavens and Myriad Worlds; entering it to Cultivate required a vast amount of resources and slots.

The slots the Holy Land obtained for the Temple of Time each year were limited, and every single one was extremely precious.

Generally, only True Disciples possessed the slots to enter the Temple of Time.

Giving Qin Yan a slot was the Holy Land's investment in him.

Upon hearing this, the other venerable elders expressed their agreement.

After Xuan Tiandao finished speaking, his gaze turned toward the Holy Land's Old Holy Lord, who was also his master.

The Old Holy Lord kept his eyes closed, seemingly dozing. His figure was illusory and blurry, making his face indiscernible.

"You can decide such minor matters yourselves," the Old Holy Lord spoke, his voice aged and calm.

Having said that, he spoke no further.

"Yes, Master," Xuan Tiandao said respectfully.

Afterward, these Holy Land venerable elders discussed a few other matters before concluding the meeting.

Their figures transformed into streaks of flowing light, flying out of the Taixuan Hall, cutting through space, and disappearing in various directions of the Holy Land.

...

Qin Yan was completely unaware of everything that had transpired. At this moment, he was still practicing his Spear Technique, raising his proficiency with the Taibai Sharp Metal Spear Intent.

Upon the long spear, the golden Spear Intent flowed, exceptionally eye-catching in the dim Immortal Cave.

His movements were as smooth as flowing water, executed in one breath; every thrust carried a sharp edge, and every form carried a fierce intensity.

In his eyes, there was only the spear.

Time flowed by slowly like this.

Meanwhile, the Guhen Kingdom welcomed several uninvited guests.

Guhen Royal Palace.

High in the sky, a vast area of space completely collapsed and shattered like a broken mirror.

The Void Realm shattered, and black cracks spread in all directions, as dense as a spiderweb.

At the center of the collapsed space, it was pitch black, like an abyss or a black hole, devouring all light and all existence.

Immediately after, several figures slowly appeared.

These figures walked out from the center of the collapsed space, manifesting from the Void Realm.

Each of them exuded a formidable aura.

Their auras intertwined, forming a terrifying pressure that bore down on the royal palace below.

And in front of these figures stood a middle-aged man.

He wore white robes, with a handsome face, sword-like eyebrows, and starry eyes. His long hair was casually tied behind his head, with a few strands fluttering in the wind.

His entire body exuded an even more formidable aura—the aura of a True King.

"First Prince Jun Wentian, get out here!"

True King Jiang Wuchen let out a low shout, and invisible soundwaves rippled out from his mouth.

The soundwaves rippled outward, centering on him and spreading in all directions.

Wherever the soundwaves passed, the defensive Formations in the skies above the Guhen Kingdom were destroyed one after another!

Those Formations—some of the seventh-grade, some eighth-grade, some ninth-grade—were like paper under the impact of the soundwaves, instantly shattering into a sky full of light specks.

A large number of buildings shattered directly!

The halls, pavilions, and terraces within the royal palace collapsed one after another under the impact of the soundwaves, turning into ruins.

Debris splattered, dust flew, and screams rose one after another.

At this moment, a faint golden light emerged from the depths of the palace. The golden light welled up like a thin barrier, enveloping the entire royal palace, barely managing to block the soundwaves from spreading further.

Upon the light barrier, golden runes flowed, emitting a faint spiritual glow.

Under the impact of the soundwaves, the light barrier trembled slightly, rippling with layers of waves, but it remained unbroken.

"True King Jiang's grand arrival—pardon me for not welcoming you sooner."

A voice rang out, carrying a hint of respect and a trace of wariness.

Immediately after, a middle-aged man dressed in a yellow dragon robe flew out from within the royal palace.

Upon the dragon robe, a five-clawed golden Dragon was embroidered, lifelike.

Upon his body, the aura of a True King emanated.
