"Lord Huo, may I ask if the Golden Key is for sale?"
"The Golden Key will no longer be sold," Huo Yuhao replied calmly. "However, rest assured—our Ming Realm's Black Iron Domain will be open to everyone."
"Black Iron Domain? Then… is there also a Golden Domain? What's the difference between them?"
Huo Yuhao nodded slightly. "Good question. The Ming Realm is divided into three major zones—the Golden Domain, the Silver Domain, and the Black Iron Domain. Each domain contains a different energy level."
The crowd immediately understood what that meant. Anyone with half a brain knew that the Golden and Silver Domains' energy must be far superior to the Black Iron one.
Someone quickly followed up, "Then what are the requirements to enter the Golden or Silver Domains?"
Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly. "I'm sorry, but the Golden Domain is reserved for Elders of the Celestial Court and above. The Silver Domain is open only to disciples of the sect."
The audience fell silent. That was a polite way of saying—if you want better cultivation resources, join the Celestial Court. An open, unapologetic power play.
Another voice rang out, "Will the Soul Ring Enhancement Packages still be auctioned later?"
This time the voice came from VIP Room No. 4. Huo Yuhao immediately recognized it—Ning Zhiyuan.
After a short pause, Huo Yuhao decided that this lucrative stream of income shouldn't be cut off. "They'll still be auctioned occasionally," he said, "but winners must come to the Celestial Court personally to claim their items."
Several more questions followed, and Huo Yuhao answered each one calmly and smoothly.
When the auction finally ended, his objectives had been perfectly achieved.
Before long, word of the Ming Realm and the Celestial Court's secret technique to extend soul ring duration spread rapidly among all major powers.
At Sea God Island, Zhang Lexuan returned and reported every detail of the auction to Elder Mu. After hearing it, Mu En was deeply alarmed and immediately convened a Sea God Pavilion meeting.
The final decision: no matter the cost, they had to obtain that soul ring enhancement method.
The same thing was happening across the continent—within the Heaven Dou royal family, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Snow Demon Sect, all were shaken and restless.
In the Star Luo Empire, at the western frontier, inside the central command tent of the Northwestern Army, Grand Marshal Dai Hao sat gripping a report in his trembling hands.
Soul Ring Enhancement Packages, hundred-thousand-year soul bones auctioned, Ming Realm established, and in three days—the Celestial Court's founding ceremony, with Huo Yuhao as its Supreme Sovereign…
Dai Hao's fists clenched tight, his heart shuddering.That unfilial son… had already become a force to be reckoned with.
Back when his attempt to assassinate Huo Yuhao had failed, Dai Hao hadn't dared return to his duke's mansion, fearing the wrath of the Body Sect. He'd hidden away for months, waiting for news that never came—only then had he dared return to the frontier army.
But ever since, Huo Yuhao's shadow had haunted him. He lived in constant fear, every day walking on thin ice.
And now, hearing this… the founding of the Celestial Court hit him like a hammer to the chest, making it hard to breathe.
In Mingdu's imperial palace, a eunuch hurried through the corridors and, after a strict inspection, entered a high pavilion. Inside sat the Crown Prince, Xu Tianran, reading an ancient tome in simple white robes, exuding a scholarly air.
The eunuch knelt and bowed low. "This humble servant greets Your Highness."
Without looking up, Xu Tianran asked, "Have you found what I ordered you to investigate?"
"Your Highness," the eunuch replied nervously, "we have located Ye Lingling's whereabouts. She was recently studying at the Body Academy."
"The Body Academy?"
Xu Tianran frowned slightly. His first thought was that she might be connected to the Body Sect—but quickly dismissed it. The Body Sect had never accepted outsiders; all its disciples possessed body-type martial souls.
"Where is she now? Why didn't you bring her to me?"
Though Xu Tianran's tone was mild, the eunuch's body trembled violently. He stammered, "F-Forgive me, Your Highness. It's not that I refused, but… Ye Lingling has close ties with the Body Sect's Huo Yuhao. She recently left the Body Academy and is now within the Celestial Court. We cannot touch her there…"
"The Body Sect's young master?"
Xu Tianran's eyes narrowed. He knew that name well. In fact, he was familiar with everyone listed on the Divine Rankings.
To think Ye Lingling was involved with such a person… this complicated matters.
"Tell me," Xu Tianran asked, "this Celestial Court you mentioned—what is it exactly?"
"Your Highness," the eunuch replied, "it's an independent power founded by that Huo Yuhao himself. This letter contains all known information."
The eunuch drew a sealed missive from his sleeve. One of Xu Tianran's attendants stepped forward, took it, and handed it to him.
"Ming Realm… Soul Ring Packages…" Xu Tianran murmured with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "How interesting. Truly fascinating."
Outwardly calm, inwardly shocked, he marveled at how the Body Sect had produced such a monster of a genius.
Interest flared in his eyes. "It seems," he said softly, "I'll have to visit this Celestial Court myself."
Besides, if he wanted Ye Lingling's healing ability, he'd have to go through Huo Yuhao anyway.
"Summon the Dragon Emperor," he ordered.
If he was going to venture into the Celestial Court's territory within the Heaven Dou Empire, he'd make damn sure he was well-protected.
Three days passed in a flash.
At noon, the Body Sect's delegation arrived at Luocang Mountain, where the Celestial Court stood. The group wasn't large, but its lineup was formidable—eight Soul Douluo, six Titled Douluo, including Du Bushi, Ran Hongyue, and Song Ming.
A grand stone staircase stretched from the mountain's base all the way to its peak—ten meters wide, spacious yet elegant.
Though the group could have easily flown up, they chose to walk, wanting to experience the scenery firsthand.
They were no ordinary travelers; their pace was brisk. In less than twenty minutes, they neared the summit.
And there, before them, rose a breathtaking sight—an immense stairway of white jade, broad and spotless, radiant in the sunlight.
As they ascended, the Celestial Court's main gate came into view—towering nearly a hundred meters high, gleaming like carved jade. Two majestic dragons coiled around the gate pillars, their scales vivid and lifelike.
Atop the gate hung two massive, bold characters—"Tian Ting" (Celestial Court)—their strokes like dragons and snakes, powerful and proud.
Du Bushi couldn't help but sigh. "That brat's really outdone himself… This gate alone puts the Body Sect's entrance to shame."
Today was the Celestial Court's grand founding ceremony, and attendants were stationed to welcome guests. Leading them was Shui Miaoyun.
Seeing the Body Sect's delegation approach, she stepped forward gracefully. "Welcome, honored guests of the Body Sect. The Supreme Lord has ordered me to receive you personally. Please, follow me inside."
Under her lead, the group proceeded deeper into the Celestial Court.
The further they went, the more astonished they became. Towering buildings stretched endlessly in all directions. This wasn't a sect—it was a city.
The architecture was mostly white, exuding an ancient charm, yet unlike the Body Sect, it didn't reject soul tools. In fact, they could see signs of soul tool integration everywhere along the way.
