# Chapter 1361: The Kingly Youth

Presented before Lin Feng were eleven majestic great halls, seemingly soaring into the clouds. Above each divine hall, a beam of light corresponding to that hall appeared, as if sealing off this entire region.

For example, opposite Lin Feng was a divine hall wreathed in towering flames, as if the entire hall was fiery red, with flames seeming to burn. Even the clouds in the sky were dyed red. That Flame Divine Hall also had nine layers. On the seventh layer were many figures, on the eighth layer was one person, and the ninth layer was empty, currently vacant.

Eleven divine halls, plus the Ice and Snow Divine Hall where Lin Feng was located, made exactly twelve divine halls. They should correspond to the twelve divine halls of the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms.

However, those who had stepped into the divine halls were definitely not only people from the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms. For instance, the Ice and Snow Divine Hall he was in was not entered from the Snow Moon Kingdom.

This meant that the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms were merely a foothold for the twelve divine halls. The twelve divine halls also led to other regions, but ultimately, they all converged here.

And in the very center of these twelve divine halls, there was actually a vast, ethereal, empty battle platform, divided into twelve positions. At each position stood a figure. The figure standing at the position corresponding to the Ice and Snow Divine Hall was none other than the Divine Envoy. It seemed that, like the messengers in the Fate Temple of the City of Fate, he could manifest countless avatars, appearing within every divine hall in the City of Fate.

The City of Fate had many Fate Temples. The old man inside should have the same status as the Divine Envoy of the Ice and Snow Divine Hall, belonging to the Divine Envoy rank. The Prophet's status should be considerably higher!

"Fairy Maiden Yiren, you've arrived too!" At this moment, a figure came rolling in from afar. Lin Feng and Yiren Lei's gazes turned in that direction. It was a resplendent Space Divine Hall, appearing and disappearing, as if it might vanish at any moment. Threads of space energy cascaded down from the air. At the seventh layer, which was parallel to Lin Feng's position, a familiar figure appeared. The moment he saw this figure, Lin Feng's eyes suddenly froze.

"It's him!" Lin Feng's heart trembled. An acquaintance, and moreover, one from the Eight Wastelands Realm. One of the Ten Great Prodigies, Sikong Xiao!

"The world of martial arts is truly this wondrous. It always manages to surprise you when you least expect it!" Lin Feng murmured to himself. Sikong Xiao from the Eight Wastelands Realm had appeared in the Space Divine Hall. How had he entered the Space Divine Hall of the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms? Moreover, Sikong Xiao's most skilled ability was the Heavenly Eye. Why would he be in the Space Divine Hall?

Sikong Xiao naturally also saw Lin Feng. Having once competed with the Curse Bearer for the Nine Nether Demon Emperor's demon flute, how could he not recognize Lin Feng now? However, in his demonic, strange eyes, there was a faint smile. He nodded very politely at Lin Feng.

"Fairy Maiden Yiren is becoming more beautiful by the day. I wonder if you've found the one who has fallen into the six desires?" Beside Sikong Xiao, a young man exuded a sharp aura, giving an illusory and ethereal feeling, unfathomable.

"Do we know each other?" Yiren Lei looked at that person. This person, she found quite unfamiliar. She didn't remember meeting him before, but the other party clearly knew her, and moreover, he was with Sikong Xiao.

"Let me introduce you, Fairy Maiden Yiren. This is Qi Qianrui of the Qi Clan. He usually trains outside and rarely appears in the Eight Wastelands, so it's normal that Fairy Maiden Yiren doesn't recognize him." Sikong Xiao's voice wasn't loud, but every word drifted over clearly, entering the ears of Lin Feng and Yiren Lei.

"Qi Qianrui!" Lin Feng's eyes froze. The Invincible Sovereign Lord of the Qi Clan who had banished him was named Qi Qianxing.

"Qi Qianrui, of the same generation as Qi Qianxing? Then wouldn't he be an old monster?" Yiren Lei said with a light smile. She had heard about Lin Feng being banished by Qi Qianxing before entering the Void Battlefield. Moreover, she had long known of Qi Qianxing's title as the Invincible Sovereign Lord.

"Same generation. Qi Qianxing is my elder brother, though I was born a hundred years later than him!" Qi Qianrui said calmly, causing the smile in Yiren Lei's eyes to stiffen slightly. It really was the same generation. And Qi Qianxing was actually his elder brother.

What was the relationship between Qi Qianxing and Qi Huang? If Qi Qianxing was a descendant of the Qi Clan's Martial Emperor, then this could be understood. Descendants of a Martial Emperor could differ by a thousand years in age. It was entirely up to the Martial Emperor's own wishes.

"Lin Feng, this person's talent might be even more terrifying than Qi Qianxing's." Yiren Lei transmitted her voice to Lin Feng. Qi Qianxing and Qi Qianrui were brothers, separated by a hundred years. Qi Qianxing was an Invincible Sovereign Lord, but Qi Qianrui had also stepped onto the seventh layer of the divine hall, clearly also a prodigy. And Sikong Xiao, this person was not simple either, with deep schemes.

"The relationship between the Sikong Family and the Qi Clan is indeed close. No wonder they joined forces to deal with the Wen Family!" Yiren Lei smiled. This made Lin Feng's eyes flicker. Since two acquaintances had appeared, would there be other familiar faces?

As Lin Feng's eyes searched through the other divine halls, his gaze soon froze. More acquaintances appeared, and not just one.

"The Wen Family brothers, both on the seventh layer of the divine hall!"

Lin Feng looked towards that divine hall, where killing intent overflowed. The entire hall was like a peerless fierce weapon. On the seventh layer were many figures, two of whom were none other than Wen Tian Ge and Wen Aoxue of the Wen Family!

Lin Feng only paused his gaze on the Wen Family brothers for a moment before continuing to look at others. Soon, when his eyes fell upon a divine hall wreathed in boundless Buddha light, his pupils froze. Kong Ming the monk!

If he had only seen Kong Ming the monk, he wouldn't have been surprised, since there were already several acquaintances before. However, Kong Ming the monk was located on the eighth layer of the Buddha Divine Hall.

Sikong Xiao and Wen Tian Ge were among the Ten Great Prodigies. During this period of preparing for the Assembly of Emperors, they naturally wouldn't waste time idly. With their improved cultivation levels and various methods, possessing Sovereign Lord combat power and stepping onto the seventh layer was understandable to Lin Feng. Take himself, for example. Even before breaking through to the Second Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm, if the Divine Envoy hadn't deliberately made things difficult for him, he was absolutely confident he could have entered here after fighting ten people. But the Divine Envoy had made him fight thirty.

Moreover, the situation differed for each divine hall. He didn't know how the selection was conducted in other divine halls. Perhaps it was different from the Ice and Snow Divine Hall.

Lin Feng recalled that he and Yiren Lei had encountered Kong Ming the monk when passing through the Void Battlefield. Kong Ming the monk was heading in the same direction as them, towards the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms. And Yiren Lei had said at the time that Kong Ming the monk was not as simple as they imagined. Everyone had underestimated Kong Ming. No wonder he was also one of the people the Prophet valued most!

"Eighth layer!" Lin Feng murmured to himself. Since Kong Ming the monk could step onto the eighth layer, his combat power was at least at the peak of the Seventh Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm, or even surpassing the Seventh Layer and entering the Eighth Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm. He was definitely a rare prodigy.

However, although there were few people on the eighth layer like Kong Ming, each divine hall still had a handful of figures. But the most dazzling person was not them. Among the twelve divine halls, the most brilliant and eye-catching figure was only one. The figure standing on the ninth layer of one of the divine halls was the only one capable of standing on the ninth layer.

This person's cultivation wasn't high, merely the Third Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm. But just by standing there casually, he seemed to possess a battle spirit that soared to the heavens, as if eternal and immortal, unique and unrivaled.

This kind of spirit was not deliberately released by him, but it truly appeared on him, as if it were a temperament branded into his soul, born innately.

"This person should possess a powerful innate constitution, which gives rise to this kind of temperament!" Yiren Lei said softly.

"It's like the ancient kings. This is a kind of kingly body, as if born to attain the status of a king!" said the burly young man beside them. He was a true Ice Frost Demon Dragon with vast knowledge. A king was not a cultivation realm, but a title, a respectful address for supreme and unparalleled experts. Perhaps those kings were even divine-level experts.

"A kind of constitution!" Lin Feng's eyes froze. The Undying Nether King Body, was it one of the kingly constitutions?

King, Nether King!

"The twelve divine halls were not originally meant to converge. But it seems they have gathered together to compete for this kingly constitution!" The woman in tight black clothes also spoke, her gaze sharp as she looked towards the kingly youth in the void. She seemed to want to replace him and become an existence like the kings. Even without a kingly body, who said one couldn't become a peerless king?

"You are an Ice Frost Demon Dragon. Aren't they competing for you too?" Lin Feng asked the burly young man.

"Haha, the Ice Frost Demon Dragon is not the supreme being of the demon dragon clan. The demon dragons have their own clan settlements in the Holy City Central Continent, so there are many. But a kingly body is not so easy to find. Besides, competing for me would be useless. You should understand that, right?" The burly young man said with a laugh. Lin Feng nodded slightly. Since the demon dragon clan had their own clan settlements, the young man, being an Ice Frost Giant Dragon, obviously had to return to his clan.

The demon dragon clan should be a formidable force comparable to the divine halls. After all, in the demon realm, demon dragons were at the king level, just like this kingly constitution in the human world.

"Everyone, do you have any ideas? How should we decide his belonging? Or should we let him choose for himself?" At this moment, on the vast battle platform in the center of the divine halls, a Divine Envoy spoke. Just as the woman in black had said, the twelve divine halls were competing for the young man with the kingly constitution.

At this moment, the youth in the void appeared so glorious, radiating brilliance, being competed for by twelve divine halls. It was imaginable that no matter which divine hall he stepped into, he would receive the best nurturing. The divine halls wanted him to become a true king and carve out a world of his own!

PS: Making up for one chapter. After resting for a few days, I'll start making up for the owed chapters. Now, I ask my brothers to help me push the flowers past a thousand!
