Chapter 87: The Gerontocracy

ond tree was located.In just a moment, five terrifying eight-armed golden apes were easily dealt with by Shen Xiang. After all, his Heaven and Earth Flame was the most feared by these eight-armed gold...Chapter 87 - The Senate

They knew little about the Profound Realm, only that it was very mysterious and had a large number of genius treasures. There were even some with numerous monstrous beasts, making it a natural treasure house for cultivators but also full of unknown dangers.

The martial elders saw the doubts on their faces and immediately said, "The Senate has already moved into this Profound Realm. We are familiar with everything inside and outside, all under our control. There's no need for you to worry about strong monsters appearing, the strongest here is only a tenth-grade monster."

Qiu Rong asked, "So they've plundered all the genius treasures here If those three guys find any leftovers inside, do they have to hand them over too Why didn't I encounter such an assessment back then"

The martial elder laughed and scolded, "Fatty little boy, you're really like your older fatty! If they find good things here, they don't need to hand them over but must report it to us. If they want to sell, they have to prioritize selling to our Great Martial Sect."

The third assessment turned out to be hunting three tenth-grade monsters, which was indeed testing their comprehensive strength. Shen Xiang looked forward to it very much.

"The first three paths lead to areas with more monsters. Here is a storage waistband, able to store a large amount of things. You need to bring back the monster's corpses and remember not to take them all for yourself, we know about it! The monsters here are ones that we caught and put in, after you kill them, you can get half of the monsters. This is considered your reward!" The martial elder took out three black waistbands and handed them over.

Shen Xiang received the waistbands, then encouraged each other before setting off on their way into the Profound Realm.

Qiu Rong asked, "Martial elder, where's the Senate inside" He looked around after seeing Shen Xiang and company walk away but didn't see any buildings.

"It's a secret, it's inside here but I can tell you that Elder Dan moved her entire Dao College into here. As long as you enter those small colleges, you can stay here for a long time." The martial elder grinned mysteriously.

The Great Martial Sect's Senate has always been a mystery, no one knew how many old guys were inside or their exact strength. Only those few elders were known.

"Sometimes, one doesn't need to have very powerful strength to enter the Senate. As long as you reach that stage, you will know it. There is an assessment of the elders at regular intervals and once you pass, you can become an elder." The martial elder patted Qiu Rong's shoulder and then led him away.

Shen Xiang walked along the road, looking at the beautiful stars in the sky and breathing in the fragrant air. He felt the abundant qi here, feeling grateful.

"I didn't expect that the Great Martial Sect had so much mysticism here, right next to a Profound Realm. I think they have almost exhausted the resources inside and are about to announce their Great Martial Sect's secret, which can boost their faction," Su Meiyao said.

"Sister Meiyao, have you seen other Profound Realms" Shen Xiang asked.

"Of course, but they're not as beautiful. They are all very dangerous places, but inside there are a lot of genius treasures, this is the truth." Su Meiyao said.

The Great Martial Sect could stand at the highest point of Heaven Martial Continent because of this Profound Realm!

...

A courtyard in an old house hung three transparent crystal balls, each the height of a person. From these crystals, they could clearly see Shen Xiang, Yun Xiaodao, Zhang De's figures, an aerial view of them.

Behind the crystal balls were twenty or so people, among whom were Wukaiming and Elder Dan. The rest were all elderly men or women, there were also several middle-aged and young people, but most of them wore masks.

As many disciples hadn't passed the second assessment in years, now that there was Shen Xiang, a young man who stood out, all the old guys in the Senate were eager to see how Shen Xiang passed the third assessment.

"This kid named Shen Xiang must have such talent, he can't be a normal person's guidance, he must have someone powerful behind him. But why did he come to the Great Martial Sect The martial arts techniques he uses are ones we've never seen before, although not very advanced, they're still quite powerful compared to similar levels!" a common-looking youth said.

"Heh heh, I wonder why Elder Dan would bet so much on him. Maybe he'll win" Wukaiming laughed.

Everyone else also expressed confusion.

Elder Dan coldly hummed, "Old man Wu, I can marry you immediately now that you've won me. Whoever wins me here can marry him!"

There was no more talking. It's not easy to defeat Elder Dan, even the head master who was in seclusion dared not try.

"Now we need to find out his motive for coming to the Great Martial Sect!" The youth said.

"There should be no motive, based on our investigation, he just entered the Great Martial Sect to improve himself. Although his martial arts techniques are powerful, not many can be used. I think he might have come for that reason." Wukaiming said.

"It's also possible he came to strengthen his alchemy technique, but I don't think he can enter the Great Alchemy College." Elder Dan said coldly.

"Don't be so sure, you said he wouldn't pass the second assessment, but he did and even showed off in front of me." The martial elder laughed.

"Hmph! This kid, I'll settle the score with him someday." Elder Dan grumbled.

"I hope he doesn't have any other bad intentions, otherwise, we won't spare him!" The youth said.

The martial elder nodded and said, "Who here is interested in taking him as a disciple This kid has good potential and we can learn more about him."

Those inside must be elders from the Senate, all of whom have powerful strength and influence. They were discussing among themselves at this moment, seeing Shen Xiang's potential before them, he was their most promising disciple they'd ever seen. Especially his indomitable spirit earned praise from all.

"Who dares take him as a disciple, I won't pass!" Elder Dan suddenly shouted, silencing everyone again. "Even if the head master wants to take him as a disciple, I won't let it happen! Besides, this kid's true strength in the Real Martial Realm is still unknown. Haven't we seen many geniuses die in mid-stage Heaven Martial Realm"

The crowd could tell that Elder Dan hated Shen Xiang very much. They were also puzzled, wondering why she hated him so much.

"Women are petty. It's just a young head who bumped into you several times, is it worth keeping it in mind" An old man shook his head and smiled. Everyone felt a chill when they heard this.

They knew that Elder Dan was very vindictive and anyone she hated wouldn't have good luck. In the past, several powerful demons who insulted her were made to suffer terribly by her.

Shen Xiang was smiling as he walked along, leisurely admiring the beautiful Profound Realm, unaware of a group of old monsters discussing and debating him. He also didn't know that Elder Dan was thinking of ways to make his life difficult.itted a bright green glow. As he poured his strong True Qi into it and swung it towards the ground, its weight reached tens of billions!The Qinglong Demon Slayer Sword was surrounded by a golden radia...
