Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Su Mo heaved a secret sigh. He had been so excited by the prospect of finding the Dark Stone that he overlooked the fact that this Ancient-treasure City had been in the Waste Domain for so long that whatever treasures it held would have already been taken away by scavengers!
“Teal Fire King, is there a treasure spot in this place that still remains untouched by scavengers?” Su Mo asked.
“There is!” Teal Fire King imdiately nodded.
“There are indeed several treasure spots scattered across this place that remain untouched. They are all guarded by powerful formation forbiddance that would prevent even a Martial Royal Realm expert from entering!” he added.
“Really?” Su Mo’s eyes lit up. “Bring there!”
“Sure!” Teal Fire King then led Su Mo into the depths of the city.
There were many places in Ancient-treasure City that shone with the light from formations. They were clearly so sort of treasure spot and would surely contain treasure within.
Su Mo did not head toward these places, but followed Teal Fire King all the way to an ancient palace left in ruins.
This ancient palace was extrely vast, easily filling up a space of dozens of kiloters. It was antique and simple, shaped like a palace, but was built from an unknown stone that left it with a green cast all over.
This ancient palace had sustained heavy damage and a part of it at already collapsed. The rest of the palace looked like it was also on the verge of collapsing.
The ancient palace was bustling with activity, with many martial artists gathering here. They all seed to know that this was a treasure spot and wanted to search for treasures here.
“Master, this place used to be the palace of one of the powers in ancient tis. It has been looted of all its treasures, but there is an exquisite treasure inside the great hall that no one has been able to obtain thus far!” Teal Fire King said.
Su Mo nodded, then charged into the ancient palace.
Teal Fire King’s lips slowly curled into a mysterious smile.
There was no way he would know where the Dark Stone might be. He had his own reasons for bringing Su Mo to this place.
Then, Teal Fire King followed Su Mo into the palace.
As Su Mo entered the palace, he saw the palace was filled with thousands of martial artists all looking up toward the center of the great hall.
Su Mo followed the direction of the crowd’s stares and saw a long flight of stairs that led up to a dragon seat of pure gold.
This dragon seat was as big as a double bed and glowed with dazzling golden light.
Realistic flying dragons were carved onto the chair and two huge dragon heads were carved onto the handles of the sa chair.
It gave off an air of overpowering dominance, as though only an Emperor surveying his empire would have the authority to sit on it.
There was a young man in white who was slowly climbing up the stairs toward the dragon seat.
SIlence filled the hall as the crowd watched that young man’s progress intently.
“Jiang Fengran?” Su Mo’s brows rose as recognition filled him. That young man in white was known as the Son of the Wind, a Supre Talent nad Jiang Fengran.
“Teal Fire King, could you tell more about this dragon seat?” Su Mo asked.
“Master, this dragon seat is known as the Emperor’s Throne!” Teal Fire King said with a smile.
“Emperor’s Throne?” Su Mo muttered. It did look rather extraordinary, but he was not interested.
He had no interest in any other treasure; his top priority now was to find the Dark Stone.
Su Mo was angered by Teal Fire King’s antics. He had already told the latter that he wanted to find the Dark Stone, yet Teal Fire King led him to this place.
Teal Fire King then continued, “This Emperor’s Throne is rather extraordinary. It is said that whoever manages to sit on it would gain the Martial Emperor Realm Qualification. Thus, this person would have a high chance of becoming a Martial Emperor.”
“Really?” Su Mo said with so surprise.
“Whoever manages to sit on this Emperor’s Throne would be able to beco Martial Emperor in the future?”
“Was this a joke?”
There was no Martial Emperor across the entire Firmant and Continent today. The strongest experts were all of Emperor-to-be cultivation.
“Has anyone managed to sit on this throne?” Su Mo asked curiously.
“Not in the past. However, the Firmant World has welcod the Era of Heros in recent years with the ergence of many extraordinary talents. Over the past 10 years, eight people have sat on the throne!” Teal Fire King said reverently. “Those eight people were none other than the extraordinary talents ranked top 5 on the List of 10,000 Talents, as well as five talents from the Demons!”
“The top 5 on the List of 10,000 Talents?” Su Mo’s eyes flickered contemplatively. It was said that Shangguan Hao was ranked fifth on the sa List, so wouldn’t that an that he had achieved this feat?
Did it an that Shangguan Hao had gained the Martial Emperor Realm Qualification? And that he would have a chance of becoming Martial Emperor in the future?
“Since eight people have achieved this feat, why has the throne not been taken away?” Su Mo asked in puzzlent.
“Being able to sit on it does not an one could take it away!” Teal Fire King explained with a shake of his head.
“It is rumored that only the one who has the Great Emperor Qualification would be able to take this throne away!” he continued.
Su Mo was stunned. ” Only the one who has the Great Emperor Qualification would be able to take this throne? This throne must be truly extraordinary! ”
A Great Emperor referred to a high-level Martial Emperor. This ant that this person would have the potential of at least becoming a Lv 7 Martial Emperor Realm expert.
A Great Emperor expert was the strongest being across the Firmant World, even in the ancient tis for there was only a chance of one erging every 10,000 years.
It was also said that a Supre Emperor was a level that way surpassed those of the Martial Emperor Realm.
“Master, since you’re already here, would you like to try and see if you could end up in the Emperor’s Throne? After all, this is the dream of countless young talents out there!” Teal Fire King said earnestly even as he chuckled to himself.
He knew that Su Mo would definitely make an attempt to sit on the throne. After all, all young and extraordinary talents out there would crave to know if they possessed the Martial Emperor’s Realm Qualification!
Teal Fire King was not aware of how strong Su Mo truly was, but he knew that there was sothing extraordinary about Su Mo. How else would he have been able to make it out of the Earth Gate of Sky-burn Mansion alive?
Therefore, Teal Fire King surmised that Su Mo must be an extraordinary talent and would definitely be tempted by the prospect this throne presented.
Once Su Mo embarked on his attempt to sit on the throne, this would be his chance at freedom because only 1 in 10 would make it out alive!
Sure enough, his words had piqued Su Mo’s curiosity.
“Interesting!” Su Mo laughed and strode forward. He stood at the back of the crowd and quietly watch Jiang Fengran’s attempt.
Jiang Fengran had already made it up the halfway mark and was now halfway from the finishing point.
The stairs leading up to the Emperor’s Throne looked deceptively long, but there were only 33 stairs to the top. Jiang Fengran had already climbed 17 at this point.
He walked very slowly and had to pause for a few breaths before he took the next step. His speed started to slow down even more the further he climbed.
After Jiang Fengran had climbed the 20th step, he paused for dozens of breaths before he took his next step.
A while later, Jiang Fengran had climbed up the 30th step and was now 3 steps away from the top.
Jiang Fengran was moving extrely slowly by this ti.
10 whole minutes passed before he finally made it to the 31st step.
