Monarch of Time-Chapter 961 Xuan Bo

''I'll have to fight everyone here?'' Shun Long was briefly taken aback by the old man's declaration, but in his heart, he didn't mind that outcome in the slightest.

After all, the main reasons he had entered the 'Heavenly Tower', were firstly to obtain resources that would aid him in his cultivation, and secondly to test himself against the strongest Dao Kings in this place.

As he climbed up the floors of the tower, he ended up meeting plenty of geniuses ranked in the top 100 of the 'White Tiger chamber of commerce' list, including the yellow-robed Wei Peng, the green-robed Xu Tai, and many geniuses from the eight ancient families. He even got to meet the silver-haired Xing Fei who was ranked in 16th place. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Although he couldn't see the faces or sense the auras of the people around him, Shun Long could tell that everyone else who was now at the peak of this mountain must be ranked even higher than Xing Fei.

Naturally, it would be a lie if Shun Long said he wasn't interested in sparring with those people. After all, how could he not be curious about the strongest geniuses the central region had to offer? Nodding his head, he didn't say anything else and simply closed his eyes and began to meditate, as he waited for time to pass.

In the blink of an eye a week had already gone by, but surprisingly, from the eleven, no, ten people who were still in deep meditation at the mountain peak, nobody else seemed to have waken up within this time.

During this past week, Shun Long had also chatted with the old man quite a few times, and had ended up noticing a few important details that he hadn't paid as much attention to the first time around.

First, the purple-robed old man was actually someone who enjoyed long chats quite a bit.

Shun Long didn't know if this was in the old man's nature or if he had simply gotten bored after spending so many years in solitude inside the 'Heavenly Tower', but the bald elder took every opportunity he could to strike up a conversation.

More than a few times he tried to instruct Shun Long on how to form his Dao seed in the future, having him pay extra caution in his breakthrough to the Sovereign realm, and he even suggested giving up on his supreme Daos if things proved too difficult.

He tried to make his point clear again and again that supreme Daos weren't that much stronger than common or rare Daos depending on one's talent, but to the old man's frustration, the azure-robed youth in front of him didn't seem to take his words to heart.

Eventually, the old man gave up on this matter and simply chatted with Shun Long about irrelevant stuff. Most of their conversations were him describing to Shun Long the 'Imperial Mandate sect's' inner workings and explaining how powerful of a sect it actually was.

According to the old man, the 'Imperial Mandate sect' was a true overlord of the 'Immortal Dimension', one that ruled over hundreds of thousands of cultivation empires, small sects, and kingdoms alike.

It ruled over a vast amount of land that spanned nearly an entire world, with tens of thousands of immortals under its reign!

Apparently, even the most powerful sects in the 'Immortal Dimension' wouldn't take their 'Imperial Mandate sect' lightly.

The old man didn't go too deep in his explanation about how vast a single 'world' was, but he explained that even if a 9th tribulation Earth Immortal wanted to traverse it from one end to another, they wouldn't be able to do so in just one lifetime.

But of course, Shun Long and the 'eavesdropping' Little Black only took the purple-robed elder's words with a grain of salt.

It was not that the purple-robed old man was intentionally trying to deceive him, but Shun Long had a much better idea of the 'Immortal Dimension' and the true strength of the most powerful sects who resided there than the old man.

Of course, the part about the 'Imperial Mandate sect' being relatively strong and them governing a single world was most likely true, but the path about them being an overlord of the 'Immortal Dimension' was definitely exaggerated.

It wasn't that Shun Long was looking down on the sect, but he knew that the top powers of the 'Immortal Dimension' ruled over a handful of powerful worlds at the same time!

As for this 'Imperial Mandate sect', although the sect most likely wasn't weak, if it was compared to the peak powers of the 'Immortal Dimension', it would only be considered a second-rate power at the end of the day.

Otherwise, there was no way that neither Shun Long nor Little Black wouldn't have heard of its name in the past unless it was one of those peak powers that was hidden away for an untold amount of years.

The next thing that Shun Long noticed was another relatively important detail that made things even more interesting for the upcoming seventh trial. Apparently, Shun Long wasn't the only person the bald old man would strike a conversation with this past week.

Among the eleven people surrounding the mountain peak in a semi-circle, there was one other blurry figure that consistently attracted the old man's attention.

Although this person's appearance was hazy and still obscured by the mysterious veil, making it impossible for Shun Long to find out anything about him from far away, the old man seemed amused by the sudden interest that both Shun Long and the blurry figure had for one another and started to let out some hints about their identities.

Soon, Shun Long found out, that the mysterious person the old man would talk to was actually a peak-stage Dao Emperor and the first person to successfully pass the sixth trial before him.

He was the one ranked first in the 'Heavenly Rankings' previously, the most illustrious Dao Emperor who had entered the 'City of Immortals' this time: Xuan Bo!
