Gao Wu: Ten years of sparring experience, one move and the world knows him

Chapter 308 The Great Zhou Palace

The Great Zhou Dynasty was vast, occupying nearly half of the Pangu Continent. Except for the beast-infested areas of the central continent, all of it was Zhou territory.

If Zhao Rui hadn't emerged out of nowhere, the entire Blue Star would probably have become the territory of the Great Zhou sooner or later.

When the king went on his inspection tour, the nine streets were quiet.

Accompanied by King Zhou, the group rode in a huge, colorful flying beast and made their way to King Zhou's palace.

This magnificent flying beast is equipped with a carriage made of meteorite black gold and deep-sea spirit jade. The chariot, built of purple sandalwood, is adorned with a banner of the sun, moon, heaven and earth. When it flies, spiritual light descends three thousand feet, causing all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to bow down.

The entourage included dozens of flying beasts and a thousand guards.

Leading the way were the Tiger Guards, all experts at the Divine Soul Realm, wielding weapons such as halberds, spears, daggers, spirit spears, and divine bows, their bodies brimming with powerful true energy, creating a formidable aura.

The two warriors on either side, clad in black armor and wielding spirit shields, moved in a tantalizing display of their aura, like two moving mountains.

Amidst the soldiers' protection, an envoy in imperial robes raised the royal banner high, reciting the royal edict. His voice transformed into sonic waves that soared into the sky, causing birds and beasts within a hundred miles to give way.

The sheer power of the scene left Miao Miaomiao and Qin Ruixing's eyes sparkling with amazement. As women who had received a modern education, they had never witnessed such a sight before.

It perfectly fulfilled all their fantasies about "vanity" and "glory".

Perhaps only a queen enjoys such travel privileges.

Although Mo Ling'er had never experienced it herself, she had seen it when the King of Shang traveled, so she was not surprised.

Instead, they focused their attention on the mysterious guardian on another, smaller beast.

"Zhao Rui, this person's skill is unfathomable. I just tested the surrounding runes with witchcraft, and there is clearly an unusual power present."

Mo Ling'er transmitted her voice to Zhao Rui with a worried expression.

"Unusual power? No problem, I know what I'm doing."

Zhao Rui smiled calmly, reached out and squeezed her delicate hand, indicating that she should relax.

Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Mo Ling'er knew he already knew, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But he did not relax his guard; he continued to silently use the secret techniques of the Great Shang Dynasty to lock onto this unfamiliar guardian.

Soon the procession arrived at the Great Zhou Palace in a grand procession.

King Zhou treated Zhao Rui with the highest level of hospitality and respect. In addition to King Zhou and Queen Zhou, all civil and military officials were present to observe the ceremony and pay their respects.

After the ceremony, a grand banquet was held, featuring rare treasures, delicacies from land and sea, enchanting songs and dances, and valiant warriors—a spectacle rarely seen in this world.

Even though Zhao Rui no longer had much attachment to these worldly things, he was still shocked.

However, these thoughts only flashed through my mind.

His eyes swept over the decadent people of the Great Zhou below, and he sensed the presence of everyone.

There are twenty experts at the Domain Realm, eighty-five top-tier Dharma Aspect True Persons, hundreds and thousands of Divine Soul Realm warriors, and countless Grandmaster Realm experts.

Is this just the tip of the iceberg of the Great Zhou's strength?

Indeed, it is incomparable to the other two countries.

The banquet was filled with singing and dancing, with toasts being exchanged and laughter echoing everywhere.

It lasted for nearly two hours before it ended.

As soon as the banquet ended, King Zhou personally invited Zhao Rui and the others to go and rest.

"No need, King Zhou. I came here to travel around the central region. I have already caused you much trouble, so there's no need for rest."

Zhao Rui decisively declined the Zhou king's invitation.

"this----

King Zhou's eyes lit up, and after making a feigned invitation, he volunteered to lead Zhao Rui and the others there.

Zhao Rui naturally wouldn't refuse.

So the group then headed towards the central area in a grand procession.
