The Ninefold Palace's location wasn't a secret, and most even slightly competent people knew of it. However, even knowing it wouldn't be of any help to them. The last time anyone entered the Ninefold Palace was several hundred years ago. Even though there were people who had become Star Venerables in the recent past, nothing in the outside world was more marvelous than a Realm Lord's status.
A Realm Lord's status wasn't important unless there was a calamity. The Realm Lord's authority was limited in peaceful times and only became great when it was really needed.
Jiang Chen rushed toward the Ninefold Palace alone. It was situated on a lofty mountaintop among a group of several mountains. There were countless ferocious beasts living in these mountains. People rarely passed through this countryside and it had a primitive and archaic air. When Jiang Chen got close to the Ninefold Palace, he detected something in the distance and he squinted his eyes to see what it was.
