Chapter 782: Five Classifications
“The five dynasties include Jin, Tianlong, Yuqian, Rakshasa, and Wudou. Quite vast and diverse. There are also many hidden realms and masters, but probably none on the same level as the two palace lords. Then directly below them, we do have two or three masters stronger than the heretical king and Unrestrained Enlightened Being. For example, the Grand Sovereign of the dragon temple, the lord deeper in Peakless Ghost Mountain.”
“The Grand Sovereign is actually stronger than those two?” Feiyun’s expression changed slightly.
Grand Dragon Temple had a supreme position in Long. The emperor there needed its approval before an official coronation.
Monk Zhi Zhang was one of the five temple Sovereigns there.
“The Grand Sovereign is definitely one of the oldest existences in this land. Very few in the temple have seen him. I myself have only seen him once, and only his dao avatar, not his true form. I heard that he was there during the times of chaos so he’s more than six thousand years old. However, he’s different from the palace lords. Those two weren’t from this land, he is. Thus, the upper echelon of cultivators considered him to be the strongest beneath the two palace lords. In fact, some believe that he can take on one of them. It’s just that they haven’t fought before.”
“Impressive.” Feiyun was truly impressed. An Enlightened Being usually only lived till three thousand years.
It was even harder in Jin due to a lack of resources. Getting to six thousand years was harder than reaching the sky. This was even more impressive than the two palace lords.
No wonder why the monk viewed the Grand Sovereign so highly. The heretical king and Unrestrained Enlightened Being were geniuses and have trained for two thousand years. However, they were just juniors before the Grand Sovereign.
The monk brought up someone else - the lord of Peakless Ghost Mountain.
Feiyun has never heard about this place so he asked for elaboration.
“Your dynasty has Endless Land to the south, a forbidden land. To the west of Long is a mountainous region even larger than Endless Land. It used to be named Boundless but was eventually changed into Peakless. I don’t know much about this mysterious lord. Rumor has it that he’s an undying specter, around since the Buddhist calamity. Some say that your first-generation emperor suffered injuries in a battle between the two. That’s why he died early at 3,700 years of age. Of course, these are only rumors, who knows?”
Feiyun memorized these two titles. But in reality, one couldn’t be sure if they were stronger than the heretical king and Unrestrained since none has seen them in action recently.
