After fifteen years of cultivation, he finally reached the pinnacle of the first rank!

Chapter 405 Wanting to Become a Martial God
The head of the Great Li Secret Intelligence Bureau closed his eyes and remained silent. Even though he was severely injured and tormented by the old ancestor of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace, he completely ignored the other party's questions.

Seeing this, a murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace's patriarch. However, he did not kill him, but merely narrowed his eyes and said:
"I have heard that before the three great martial arts masters of the world advanced to the realm of martial arts, they all went to a place called 'Heavenly Martial Abyss'. After returning from there, they all reached the pinnacle of martial arts in one step."

“Previously, I learned from the Emperor that Emperor Yuanwu seemed to have a method to enter the Abyss of Heavenly Martial Arts. I do not need you to hand over that method.”

"After all, Emperor Yuanwu would not have told a servant like you about this method. I just want to know if this matter is true?"

For a top expert like the patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace, the greatest obsession in this life is to reach the realm of "Martial God".

Even though his martial arts cultivation was almost unparalleled in the entire Great Xuan Jianghu at this time, he still felt extremely far from the realm of Martial God.

He had originally given up on the idea of ​​reaching the Martial God realm, but after obtaining the Longevity Scripture, his ambition was rekindled.

Moreover, once he reaches the Martial God realm, the Life and Death Talisman that Li Musheng planted in his body will be easily removed, freeing him from being controlled by others, and he may even be able to avenge his previous humiliation.

To become a Martial God, there is a little-known secret throughout the history of the martial arts world: almost everyone needs a specific opportunity.

The catalyst was a place called "Tianwu Abyss".

"If you answer my questions, I may consider letting you leave."

At this moment, the patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace suddenly added another sentence.

Upon hearing this, the head of the Great Li Hidden Intelligence Bureau slowly opened his eyes, looked at the patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace before him, and a strange light appeared in his eyes as he said:
"You never said you would let me leave, and your words are not worth believing."

The patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace sneered and said:
"Whether you believe it or not is your business, but this is your only chance to leave here."

Then, the patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace spoke up meaningfully:

"As the head of the Dali Secret Intelligence Bureau, you have traveled thousands of miles to Taixuan City and sneaked into the Daxuan Imperial Palace at night. I know that you must be carrying an extremely important purpose."

"However, I have no interest in your purpose. I am just kindly reminding you that if you do not say anything, you will be trapped in this dark and sunless secret room forever, and you will never have the opportunity to do what you want to do."

Upon hearing this, the head of the Dali Secret Intelligence Bureau's expression shifted uncertainly, clearly showing some hesitation.

Before he came to the Great Xuan Imperial Palace, he naturally guessed that there must be experts guarding the palace, but the fact that he was captured by such powerful martial arts in one move was still far beyond his expectations.

This also made him quite worried about Li Musheng's rescue of his senior sister, wondering if the other party could successfully rescue her from the hands of the person in front of him.
In addition, today was the first time the other party softened their stance and said they were willing to let him leave.

Although the truth of these words is unknown, it was an opportunity for him that left him with no other choice.

After a brief silence, the head of the Hidden Intelligence Bureau fixed his gaze on the patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace and spoke:

"I can tell you what you want to know, but you must first answer one question: how did you find out about His Majesty and the Abyss of Heavenly Martial Arts?"

Upon hearing this, the patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace narrowed his eyes slightly. The words of the head of the Hidden Spy Division were actually an admission of his previous question.

However, he did take a look at the other person with interest and replied:

"This matter is not only known to me, but also to the royal families of the four other kingdoms besides Dali. The source of this information is a mysterious person. I had people investigate this person, but unfortunately, there were no results." The head of Dali's Secret Intelligence Bureau showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, but suppressed his doubts and said:

"Your Majesty does indeed have a method to enter the Abyss of Heavenly Martial Arts, but this method is too demanding and almost impossible to achieve. Moreover, there are no more than four people in the entire Great Li Dynasty besides Your Majesty himself who know about this."

"The only people who could have spread this news are these four, but in my opinion, these four would never betray His Majesty."

The patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace remained silent, seemingly lost in thought despite having received confirmation from the head of the Hidden Intelligence Bureau. He then gave the other man a deep look and said:
"Didn't you ever consider that this might be a message sent by Emperor Yuanwu himself?"

Upon hearing this, the head of the Hidden Intelligence Bureau paused slightly, but quickly regained his composure and changed the subject, asking:

"Now that I have answered your question, shouldn't you keep your promise and let me leave?"

The patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace nodded slightly and said:
"Of course, as the head of the Dali Secret Intelligence Bureau, you forcibly broke into the Daxuan Imperial Palace. Logically speaking, even if I were to kill you, I would be in the right."

"However, now that the Great Li and the Great Xuan are about to form an alliance, I can be magnanimous and spare your life."

Upon hearing this, the head of the Hidden Intelligence Bureau clearly showed a look of shock on his face, and said:
"An alliance? Now that Dali is surrounded by four kingdoms, why would your Daxuan Society be so kind as to form an alliance with Dali? What sinister intentions are hidden behind this?"

The patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace sneered, offering no explanation, but simply said:

"Once you get out of here, you'll naturally know why."

Having said that, he seemed to have lost interest in the head of the Secret Intelligence Bureau in front of him, and with a wave of his hand, he released him from his restraints.

Upon seeing this, the head of the Secret Intelligence Division was slightly taken aback, not expecting that the other party would actually keep his word and let him leave so easily.

He was about to ask the reason when the ancestor of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace grabbed him and instantly appeared above the Great Xuan Imperial Palace.

Then, the other party simply threw him out of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace.

Watching the figure of the head of the Secret Intelligence Bureau rapidly pass over the palace, growing farther and farther away until it gradually becomes a black dot and disappears into the horizon.

The old ancestor of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace had an indifferent expression. If it weren't for his concern for Li Musheng, he could have done whatever he wanted and would have killed this person long ago.

This feeling of being controlled by others was unpleasant, but it only fueled his desire to reach the pinnacle of martial godhood.

"When I become the God of War, I will make you pay for all of this a hundredfold!"

The patriarch of the Great Xuan Imperial Palace murmured something, and his figure vanished from the sky above the palace in an instant, returning to the palace below.

"The Abyss of Heavenly Martial Arts" is the key to entering the realm of Martial God, and he now knows that Emperor Yuanwu has a way to enter it.

This was his hope for the future. Next, he had to find a way to obtain this method from Emperor Yuanwu, and he couldn't let Li Musheng, the eighth prince of Dali, get there first.
