Emperor’s Domination

emy, the powerful teachers woke up.
The students also got out of their bed and climbed up the nearest peak for a better vantage point.

“Where’s that place?” A young student pointed at the illumination.

“Myriad Beast Mountains.” An older one recognized that direction and said: “Yes, that’s definitely it.
It’s deep in there.”

“That’s the most dangerous area of the plateau, right? Chaos primal beasts reign that area.” The students have all heard of it.

“More than that, a teacher told me that there are high-level heaven beasts, even the kings.” One of them said.

“Yes, there are several kings there, even Heavenly Sovereigns want to stay away from them.” An older one added.

“That place is large and the majority of high-level heaven beast kings are sleeping, it’s hard to meet one.” Someone who has been there before said: “It requires luck to meet one, or at least that’s what a teacher told me.”

The students from the academy all talked about this event.

Duality Academy was the largest and strongest learning institution in all of southern West King.
It belonged to the division named Metropolis.
[1]

It was the largest of the five and had a vague definition.
Anything not belonging to the other four divisions would be considered a part of Metropolis Division.
The capital included the nobles and dynasties of Buddha Emperor Plateau along with other sects.

Its main representative was the academy.
Whenever there was a big change in the holy ground, especially the changing of a dynasty, the academy would speak for Metropolis.
It had produced plenty of renowned geniuses across the generations.

In Divine Ghost Division, numerous sects became startled as well.
They all stared towards Myriad Beast Mountains.
The spectating ancestors had a serious expression.

Divine Ghost was among the strongest of the divisions, made up of numerous races.
However, the majority belonged to two races – Blood and Ghost.
Despite the diverse demographic, these two races maintained solidarity through bonds and power.
The entire division always rallied together to deal against intruders.

“A high-level beast king moving?” One expert speculated.

“No, there’s no dreadful beast aura.
It might be a treasure.” An ancestor shook his head.

“We should go take a look.” The expert responded.

“Let the juniors scout, it’s a good opportunity for training.” The ancestor ordered.

“Yes.” The expert agreed and went to carry out the order.

On the other hand, the strongest division, Heavenly Dragon, didn’t have a big reaction.

This region had countless temples and monks.
Very few monks bothered to come out to take a look at the light.

“Amitabha.” They simply chanted and stopped paying attention.

Heavenly Dragon Division was often called Heavenly Dragon Temple instead.
They were decisively the strongest force in the holy ground, consisting of 88,000 temples and 800,000 high monks.
No other powers could stand against them.

Remember, all four dao lords of Buddha Holy Ground had a Buddhist background.
Thus, the dao of Buddhism permeated across the land.

There was a popular phrase – one can see a temple every eight steps.
This might be an exaggeration but it showed the popularity of Buddhism.

Moreover, Heavenly Dragon Temple has always supported Sacred Mountain.
It could be considered a part of Sacred Mountain.
