# Chapter 1370: Undying Heavenly Palace, Jun Moxi
The Undying Heavenly Palace was situated atop the Undying Mountain Range, vast and majestic, like a celestial palace in the heavens, standing tall against the sky. It was one of the most ancient forces in the Eight Wastelands Realm. Aside from the Qi Family, Wen Family, and Sikong Family, probably no other force was as ancient as the Undying Heavenly Palace.
A Martial Emperor force often rose to prominence due to the birth of a Martial Emperor, just like the Heavenly Terrace, which rose to power in the Eight Wastelands because of the Stone Emperor and Yu Emperor. However, such forces also often declined when the Martial Emperor left or reached their limit. Without a Martial Emperor, a Martial Emperor force easily attracted too much greed.
Now, the Undying Heavenly Palace was in the same situation. It had long been rumored that the old Palace Master's end was approaching, but he seemed to be stubbornly holding on to life. As long as he lived, no one would dare touch the Undying Heavenly Palace. Other Martial Emperor forces didn't care about this short period of time, but once the old Emperor's end truly came, it was uncertain whether it would be a blessing or a curse for the Undying Heavenly Palace. Therefore, the old Palace Master's cultivation of Jun Moxi was unprecedented. He poured everything into it, wanting Jun Moxi to rise in the shortest possible time and become an Emperor, no matter the cost. Only then could the Undying Heavenly Palace be preserved.
Within the vast heavenly palace, in an inconspicuous courtyard, there was an ancient cave carved into the mountain wall. At this moment, a figure suddenly stepped out of this ancient cave, yet it did not immediately attract anyone's attention. This showed just how deathly still the Undying Heavenly Palace had become. Of course, because this ancient cave leading to the Void Battlefield was inside the Undying Heavenly Palace, it didn't require too strong a guard force, only some precautions against intruders.
At that moment, two figures flashed over and landed before the ancient cave in an instant. Their gazes fixed on the young figure walking out of the cave. He was dressed in a black robe, entirely dark, especially his pupils—dark and deep. Although he only had Second Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm cultivation, he gave people an illusion of unfathomable depth.
"Who are you, coming out from the Undying Heavenly Palace's exit?" one of them shouted coldly at Lin Feng. A powerful aura descended upon Lin Feng, as if ready to strike at any moment.
"To attend the assembly of the Emperors, I had no choice but to borrow the Undying Heavenly Palace's passageway exit. Please forgive me," Lin Feng said with a hint of apology in his voice, speaking calmly.
"Hmph, do you think you can just borrow it as you please?" the other person said with a chilling tone. A pressure descended upon Lin Feng. The passageway to the Void Battlefield was unique to each Martial Emperor force. Trespassing into another's passageway was a provocation and a sign of disrespect.
"I am acquainted with your Young Palace Master, Jun Moxi. If he were here, he would surely allow me to borrow it," Lin Feng said again.
"Oh?" The two frowned. This person was acquainted with Jun Moxi?
They exchanged glances, and a hint of killing intent flashed in both their eyes. Then they turned to Lin Feng and said, "Trespassing into the Undying Heavenly Palace—no mercy!"
"Boom!" As the words fell, a vast killing intent enveloped Lin Feng. Both of their bodies shot toward Lin Feng simultaneously. Their enormous golden palms seemed capable of crushing even metal and stone.
Lin Feng's eyes suddenly congealed. The dark demonic aura rolled and released. He stomped the ground, his body shooting into the air, and shouted loudly, "Jun Moxi, come out!"
The rolling sound waves spread in all directions, as if to cover the entire vast Undying Heavenly Palace.
"Whoosh, whoosh..." In the silent Undying Heavenly Palace, figures suddenly soared into the air, stepping toward this direction. Lin Feng stood in the void, his gaze sweeping over the Undying Heavenly Palace. With this loud shout spreading throughout the palace, Jun Moxi and Xiao Die should at least one of them be here.
"You're asking for death!" The two figures pounced toward Lin Feng. But Lin Feng stepped out, the Wind Essence enveloping his body, as fast as lightning, like a gust of wind. However, after just a moment, Lin Feng stopped again, blocked by many people who had rushed over.
"What's going on?" A middle-aged man in brocade robes shouted, his eyes cold as he scanned Lin Feng.
"This person trespassed into our Undying Heavenly Palace, coming out from the Void Battlefield passageway. He might be a spy from some force," the two who had arrived earlier said to the brocade-clad middle-aged man.
"I'm looking for Jun Moxi!" Lin Feng knew that further explanation was useless and continued.
The brocade-clad young man glanced at Lin Feng and coldly spat out a few words: "Anyone who trespasses into the Undying Heavenly Palace shall be killed!"
"Yes!" The crowd released a vast cold intent.
"Stop!" A vigorous voice rolled in, crisp and clear, echoing through the void. A handsome young man stepped over from afar. His golden long robe fluttered, and he was dressed in luxurious attire, outstanding and refined. It was none other than Jun Moxi.
Jun Moxi's gaze swept over the crowd and finally landed on Lin Feng. "What business do you have with me?"
Lin Feng's mind moved, and a jug of wine appeared in his hand. He tossed it toward Jun Moxi.
Jun Moxi was momentarily stunned, then opened the jug's spout. A familiar scent drifted into his mouth, making his heart tremble slightly. Such a familiar feeling.
"Pfft!" Jun Moxi threw the jug into the void, and it shattered. The strong liquor inside poured down from the sky, continuously flowing into Jun Moxi's mouth, even splashing onto his face, burning hot.
"Good wine. Any more?" Jun Moxi revealed a bold smile on his face, his gaze fixed on Lin Feng, a sharpness in his eyes.
"Yes, at the Tang Family in Dragon Mountain. Plenty!" Lin Feng smiled. His mind moved again, tossing several more jugs of wine toward Jun Moxi.
"Good wine should be drunk at the most appropriate time. I'll save these for now!" Jun Moxi heard Lin Feng's words and a smile appeared between his brows. With such obvious hints, how could he not know who was standing before him? Dragon Mountain, the Dragon Mountain Empire; the Tang Family, Tang Youyou's family!
In the Eight Wastelands Realm, probably only he and Lin Feng knew that the wine was from the Tang Family of the Dragon Mountain Empire.
"Since someone came to see me, why wasn't it reported? Instead, you directly went for the kill!" Jun Moxi's eyes turned cold as he swept his gaze over the two people behind Lin Feng. His gaze was icy and piercing. Now, he already had the demeanor of a king. The Undying Nether King Body, cultivated with all the resources the old Palace Master could provide, had now reached the Fourth Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm. His aura was vigorous and endless, vast and powerful.
However, it seemed impossible for the old Palace Master to cultivate him into another Martial Emperor before his end came, unless the old Palace Master could hold on for another ten years, or even longer. The birth of a Martial Emperor was too difficult.
To raise Jun Moxi's cultivation to this level while ensuring that the rapid advancement didn't destabilize his foundation, the old Palace Master must have paid a considerable price.
The two people, hearing Jun Moxi's cold tone, felt their hearts tighten. "This person trespassed into our Undying Heavenly Palace. We were merely enforcing the law and executing him!"
"What they said is correct. Trespassing into the Undying Heavenly Palace warrants death, especially during this sensitive period. Outsiders are not allowed to set foot in the Undying Heavenly Palace!" the brocade-clad middle-aged man said indifferently, his voice calm.
"I wasn't asking you!" Jun Moxi's eyes were sharp as he swept his gaze over the middle-aged man, causing the man's gaze to congeal. A glint of sharpness seemed to flicker in his eyes.
"Jun Moxi, by seniority, I am Xiao Die's fiancé's uncle. You should call me uncle. Is this how you speak to your elders?"
"Right now, at this moment, I am the Young Palace Master of the Undying Heavenly Palace. Watch your tone!" Jun Moxi's eyes were sharp, unyielding.
"So, from now on, shut up!" Jun Moxi said coldly, causing the brocade-clad middle-aged man's expression to turn as cold as a blade. But Jun Moxi paid him no heed. He walked toward the two strong men who had wanted to kill Lin Feng.
"Without reporting, acting recklessly, not bowing to me—you don't put me, the Young Palace Master of the Undying Heavenly Palace, in your eyes. That means you don't put the old Emperor in your eyes. You deserve death!" Jun Moxi spat out a cold sound from his mouth. As the words "deserve death" fell, the man's body retreated violently. But almost simultaneously, his body seemed to freeze. A nether cold intent descended, and then a Death Hand struck his head, as if it were the Nether King's hand. Slash!
The other man's face turned pale. His body flickered, trying to escape, but Jun Moxi's luxurious robe fluttered as he stepped forward. At the same time, the Nether King's hand reached out mightily. The void froze, and the cold nether qi directly seized the man's body, freezing it. A cracking sound was heard, and the man's body exploded directly, killed on the spot.
"Impressive!" Lin Feng thought to himself. Those two were both at the Sixth Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm and were strong members of the Undying Heavenly Palace. Yet before Jun Moxi, they didn't even try to resist. This showed they were well aware of how terrifying Jun Moxi's strength was. With the old Palace Master nearing his end, he must have known that the Undying Heavenly Palace would face turmoil. Naturally, he wanted Jun Moxi to be able to intimidate everyone with his powerful strength in the shortest time.
"The old Palace Master is still here. If I find out about any malicious schemers, no mercy!" Jun Moxi said coldly. Then he stepped forward and nodded at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng stepped out and followed Jun Moxi, leaving behind the brocade-clad middle-aged man with an ugly expression. Jun Moxi was becoming more and more powerful. The Undying Nether King Body was indeed terrifying. But they wouldn't give up. Once Jun Moxi gained power, Xiao Die's lineage would take sole control of the Undying Heavenly Palace. The old man's legacy would probably have nothing for them.
Jun Moxi led Lin Feng all the way outside the Undying Mountain. Then he turned around and looked at Lin Feng. Lin Feng also looked at Jun Moxi. They exchanged smiles and simultaneously punched each other hard. A booming sound of explosion rang out, and both of them laughed heartily, their robes fluttering. Jun Moxi, in his luxurious attire, still seemed like that righteous figure, while Lin Feng was surrounded by domineering aura, entirely dark.
"I knew they wouldn't take your life so easily!" Jun Moxi laughed heartily. "How have you been lately?"
"Not bad, but your situation here doesn't seem so good," Lin Feng replied with a smile.
"You should have guessed. The Undying Heavenly Palace isn't a single lineage. The competition between various factions is fierce. The old Emperor wants to preserve the palace at all costs, so he pushed me into power despite all opposition. But others don't think that way. Their idea is to get the biggest benefits after the master dies!" Jun Moxi's gaze was cold. In this world, the hardest thing to fathom was the human heart.
Lin Feng nodded. Yuan Fei had long said that the Undying Heavenly Palace wasn't peaceful. Now, he could only hope that the old Palace Master could hold on a little longer.
