The Ethereal Domains

Chapter 1879: Monarch’s Hall’s Speed

Monarch's Hall's Speed . . .

This time the Hall of Returning Nature was considered to have come prepared. Although your tree fortress is impregnable, its foundation is still wholly Iron Body Maple Trees. While it is considered to be exceedingly old, Iron Body Maple Trees are still Iron Body Maple Trees and are still considered plants. Even if the trees are resistant to sabers, swords, fists, palms, strength, and qi, can it resist being roasted by raging flames? The Hall of Returning Nature made several great efforts and finally collected a large variety of flames, painstakingly targeting the characteristic of Iron Body Maple Trees. The idea was to use the logic of using Fire to restrain Wood, to fundamentally destroy the tree fortress!

While the tentative plan was very perfect, in reality the plan felt very bony. While they were using the attack of Fire restraining Wood, they met with an unprecedented counterattack. The Eastern Sky Imperial Guard protecting the fortress got angry to a man. This is too condescending, right? Did you not see that I, your father's people are guarding this place? Unexpectedly you dare to commit arson in front of I, your father's eyes! Without raising any objection they immediately dispatched troops to cleanly kill the whole group of the Hall of Returning Nature.

After this battle, Su Yeyue thought, while admittedly husband is not here, however I as the mistress am, people dare to stare at my family estate, how can this be okay?!

Consequently, very simply and logically she commanded the Eastern Sky Imperial Guard to be in charge of the defense outside, forming the outer frontline perimeter outside of the Life and Death Hall tree fortress…

It was to the extent that since this time, some blind factions were considered to be overthrown with bloody lying moldy.

Many small powers that simply wanted to hit them while they were down were directly and easily smashed to pieces by the Imperial Guard to serve as an example.

But during this year, although Su Yeyue raised a clamor day after day asking why Cha-Eun Xiao still hadn't returned, she actually wasn't at all anxious and only cultivated at the Life and Death Hall. Her cultivation speed felt much faster compared to when she was at the Eastern Sky Imperial Palace, plus she had Xuan Bing, Yue Shuang and Yue Han to accompany her and gossip. The little girl was so happy as to forget going home, very much wanting to stay.

Especially since she still had the subtle feeling of "here is exactly my home, I am the mistress", it let Su Yeyue feel that everyone inside the Life and Death Hall was familiar and adorable.

The little girl's natural endearing silliness conquered the Life and Death Hall from top to bottom in an instant. Everyone saw that only smiling faces were pointed towards her…

The days of their lives were very tranquil and peaceful, passing quickly.

Guarding the outside, the Eastern Sky Imperial Guard all ridiculed, but unexpectedly it appeared that their cultivation here could be said to be very good.

Even though it was just the surroundings of the Life and Death Hall's tree fortress, the spiritual energy density still surpassed the usual by far. Many Eastern Sky Imperial Guards were very content to remain there and cultivate, especially since Su Yeyue was very safe inside and would not run around all over the place. Many people just naturally continued in this way.

After a while, everyone knew that the Eastern Sky Imperial Guard was stationed there, and basically everyone classified it as a "faraway and hard to reach land" that shouldn't be touched. One might as well ask, who among the common people would provoke the Eastern Sky Imperial Guard?

If they cause trouble, that is precisely courting death and joking with one's life…

Over time, visitors looking for doctors also stopped coming, and the originally unpopular Life and Death Hall directly became completely deserted.

Merely, only the people inside the Life and Death Hall's tree fortress knew exactly how terrifying the rise of their true battle strength was!

Moreover, as time continued on, it became even more and more terrifying.

Every day saw many people breaking through boundaries and promoting their realm.

All in all after the Tree Fortress Great Formation had been improved, especially after the return of the Twelve Zodiacs, it could be said that every day the flourishing spiritual energy was stronger than the day before. Originally at the tree fortress, one day of cultivation was equivalent to half a year outside for the most part, but right now, in many cases one day of cultivation was equivalent to three years of cultivation outside!

One day be tantamount to three years of cultivation progress, this is simply even more legendary than legends, even more mythical than myths! This is clearly is the treatment of a protagonist in a fictional tale! How did the Monarch's Hall arrive at this widespread transformation? This wasn't ordinary, wasn't scientific, was too… too crazy!

In short, from top to bottom the Monarch's Hall's strength underwent a super huge promotion.

But also, this kind of promotion was still continuing to intensify, as they found themselves among a more and more frightening atmosphere…

To this point the people who have the most personal experience, the largest right to talk, were no doubt the Eastern Sky Imperial Guard in charge of working security at the gate. They would basically almost go crazy with one calculation.

To be capable of being chosen as an Eastern Sky Imperial Guard, they assuredly all had some skill and ability, right?

Otherwise, how would they manage one of the most elite and famous few groups in the whole Human Realm Upon Heavens?

These few Imperial Guards were accustomed to being arrogant and regarding others as if they didn't exist.

Regarding these few main soldiers, even if you put some old experienced Undead Stage peak expert in front of them, they wouldn't necessarily put them in their eyes…

But, in just this period of time here, their arrogance was ripped to shreds by the people inside the Life and Death Hall, to the point where they almost wished for death!

In the beginning, regarding this tiny Martial World faction, they collectively didn't put them in their eyes 120000%.

Once they even had many unspoken criticisms as they lamented how their family's Heaven Empress's legacy disciple could put this one small faction leader in her eyes, it was simply casting pearls before swine! After all, Su Yeyue's rumored cultivation was already at the top of Eastern Sky, becoming a legend, so much so that it pressed on the legend of the long-standing number one person of the Human Realm Upon Heavens!

Just this place, the Limitless Ocean, outside the Five Skies in the countryside where not even birds dare to poop, what sort of protagonist could fit with our Young Miss Yeyue!

Although, the guy standing guard at the gate also has Eternal Life Stage cultivation level… but, this class of cultivation level in the Eastern Sky Imperial Guard is actually a dime a dozen, simply not worth being surprising, so much so to the point that it isn't worth mentioning.

At first, everyone was only the sort to nitpick. The general idea was that this was exactly what they had estimated, perhaps this guy was even the highest cultivation level in the whole Monarch's Hall!

Actually it wasn't unusual for the Eastern Sky Imperial Guard to have this judgement. The current fastest and most abundant news organization was the Stopping Over Pavilion, and they had the newest information. After the battle between the Monarch's Hall and the Hall of Returning Nature, their strength was acutely killed off, and they had no alternative but to have an Undead Stage rank powerhouse keep watch over the place. They had some three to four other Eternal Life Stage cultivators, and the remaining people, although they were all Saint Origin stage cultivators, counted together still didn't reach 5000 people. Most people were of the opinion that this couldn't even be counted as a medium sized power. In the past, Meng Youjiang's Black Wind Mountain had a much larger scale, if not for having the Monarch's Hall's chief Cha-Eun Xiao to join the two pavilions in the fire of battle and letting out a huge sea of Spirit Beasts, they wouldn't have inflicted serious damage to the Hall of Returning Nature. While the defense conditions of the Life and Death Hall's tree fortress was without rival, the Monarch's Hall had already been squeezed out of the top of the name list for the Limitless Ocean's power ranking!

Simply, those few people who came out for sentry duty didn't have much difference in cultivation level. Sometimes they still had some Eternal Life Stage peak experts standing watch, but also just this and nothing more, it still wasn't worth mentioning.

But…

After the Monarch's Hall's manpower switched through the shifts…

Some people began to think something was fishy.

"Yi, last time I saw this guy, he was only Eternal Life Stage rank 4, right? Why does it seem like this time, he's… promoted? Did I see wrong? He seems to be rank 5 peak approaching rank 6?" someone said suspiciously.

"Not possible, right? If it isn't that your eyes are blurry, it's that your memory was certainly wrong, huh!" someone refuted. "Such a short time, he broke through so much? You think he ate a magic potion?" someone scoffed.

But, on the second day…
