The young Gold Horn Race members outside the Doyen Shrine looked up at Elder Rient in the sky, hearing his loud challenge.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "How strong is he?"
"Yeah! How strong?"
"No matter how strong, can he be stronger than Leo?"
Hearing the last person's question, the young Gold Horn Race members below all showed confident smiles, absolutely trusting the Genius named Leo, believing that as long as that Human was Domain Master, Leo could defeat him!
Leo, the Gold Horn Race's top Genius in the past ten thousand epochs, and also the number one Domain Master Genius of the current era, whose Law comprehension had reached the Immortal level.
"Forget Leo, if that Human is Domain Master, I, Kan Luke, can also defeat him!"
A young man with dark red skin, carrying a golden greatsword on his back, appearing as if cast from metal, shouted from the center of the young Gold Horn Race members.
"It's Kan Luke!"
"Kan Luke is here too?"
"Kan Luke can defeat that Human!"
Hearing this, the young Gold Horn Race members couldn't help but cheer, turning their gazes towards Kan Luke who had spoken.
Because Kan Luke was one of the top three existences among the Domain Master Geniuses in the Sacred City, his Law comprehension was very close to that of an Immortal.
"that Highness is Domain Master, but you are not his opponents, not even Leo."
Elder Rient, standing in the air, shook his head slightly, his voice not loud but it reached the ears of every young Gold Horn Race member below.
"What?!"
"How is that possible! That's Leo!"
"That's right, Leo's Law comprehension has reached the Immortal level, how could he not be able to defeat that Human?"
Hearing Elder Rient's words, the young Gold Horn Race members below found it unbelievable. How could their race's top Domain Master Genius of the current era not be able to defeat that Human?
"This is impossible!"
"Unless that Human accepts a challenge and competes, otherwise, we won't believe it!"
"Right! Compete!"
Some were shocked by Elder Rient's words, but others didn't believe what he said, thinking it was false, just to prevent them from challenging that Human.
"I have no need to lie to you," Elder Rient sighed lightly, continuing, "that Highness is an unparalleled Genius among the Human Race. At Universe Level, his Law comprehension already surpassed that of ordinary Immortals. Just now, a Doyen personally received him."
As his words fell, there was silence below, an unprecedented quiet!
Among the young Gold Horn Race members, some had shocked expressions, some were full of disbelief, and others had questioning looks, not believing this was true.
A Doyen! That was a high and mighty Doyen! How could he personally receive a Human who was also Domain Master?
At this moment, many young people still looked towards the main entrance of the Doyen Shrine, noticing a Human looking at them, the very Human they wished to challenge.
"His Universe Level Law comprehension already surpasses our race's top Domain Master Genius of this era. This is a super Genius among Humans, truly terrifying!"
"This must be fake, right? How can Universe Level Law comprehension surpass an ordinary Immortal?"
"He just came out of the Doyen Shrine, could this be true?"
After a moment of silence, the young Gold Horn Race members below began to discuss, expressing their opinions and views, and the scene once again became chaotic.
"Whether you believe it or not, I have said what I needed to say. You can all leave now. If you continue to pester, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Elder Rient's voice became somewhat cold towards the end. Although the high-ranking members of the Gold Horn Race tacitly allowed young members of their race to challenge Human Geniuses who came to Laos World.
But there were limits to this. If a Human Genius was unwilling, then the young members of the race could not force them.
They invited Human Geniuses to Laos World to befriend them and gain development space for their race, not to allow the young members of the race to engage in endless challenges.
After all, people's personalities differ. Some Geniuses might not mind being challenged, or even enjoy fighting and being challenged.
Conversely, some Geniuses are naturally reclusive, dislike being disturbed, and hate endless challenges.
Elder Rient had only spent a short time with Ender, and he couldn't quite grasp Ender's personality. To avoid offending him, he had to make the young members of the race behave.
The young Gold Horn Race members outside the Doyen Shrine noticed Elder Rient's unkind tone and could tell he wasn't joking. They understood that if they continued to pester, there would be no good outcome, so despite their reluctance, they left.
Looking down, seeing the young people gradually dispersing, Elder Rient immediately breathed a sigh of relief. If he could, he wouldn't want to coldly reprimand the future of his race, but for the sake of the race, he had no choice but to do so.
"I hope you can understand that I'm doing this for the race," he thought to himself. "It wasn't easy for the race to invite a talented and influential figure like Ender as a guest, and we absolutely cannot anger him over minor matters."
Ever since the Gold Horn Race became a vassal and migrated to the Human Territory, they had been trying to befriend powerful high-ranking members of the Human Race. However, befriending powerful high-ranking members came at too great a cost. If they maintained such a strategy long-term, even for a common race with deep foundations like theirs, it would be difficult to bear.
So they changed their approach, focusing on befriending Geniuses within the Human Race. As long as a Human Genius had some talent, they were within their scope of befriending.
For example, Luo Feng, who had just become Domain Master in the original work, based on the talent he displayed at the time, might have been close to a Genius-level appearing once every ten thousand epochs, but he was still within the Gold Horn Race's scope of befriending.
Because he showed a certain talent, he entered the Primal Secret Realm in the first Secret Realm competition, and his results were better than Bolan's at the same time, making him worth befriending.
And now, Ender, both in terms of talent and background, was far stronger than Luo Feng who had just broken through to Domain Master, which naturally made him highly valued by the Gold Horn Race.
Indeed, even Venerable Louli, a Doyen of the race, put aside the pride belonging to a Powerhouse and personally received a small Domain Master fellow, giving him ample Face.
Seeing that most of the young people below had dispersed, Elder Rient no longer lingered in the sky. After descending to the ground, he waited at the foot of the Doyen Shrine steps.
Coming out of the Doyen Shrine's front hall, Ender walked down the wide steps, thinking to himself, "The young Gold Horn Race members daring to cause trouble here clearly received tacit approval, but the degree of tacit approval is a bit excessive. This is the Doyen Shrine where many Doyens Cultivate and reside."
If it were in the Human Race, if young ones dared to make a ruckus in a place where Universe Venerables resided, they would absolutely be taught a lesson, even with tacit approval.
Because the dignity and honor of the strong are absolutely inviolable!
Even for Ender, the Universe Venerables, out of deference to his teacher, would be more amiable towards him, but if it truly involved their Face and honor, they would definitely teach him a lesson. Even Luo Feng in the original work, at World Master Level, possessed Peak Invincible-stage King Level combat power, and his performance in the subsequent Ancestor God Sect was also extremely outstanding.
But when he became an Immortal and established a palace on the mountainside of the Thunder Island Central Mountains, it caused dissatisfaction among many Universe Venerables in a very short time, only not erupting due to the Face of his teacher, Primal Chaos City Lord.
The reason being, establishing a palace on the mountainside of the Central Mountain Range was a privilege and treatment exclusive to Universe Venerables!
A Peak Invincible-stage King Level being on equal footing with them, these Universe Venerables, naturally aroused their dissatisfaction, even making them feel a slight illusion of being insulted.
It wasn't until Luo Feng killed King Feijing, who could suppress a First Order Universe Venerable, that the other Universe Venerables accepted him and acknowledged his right to establish a palace on the Central Mountain Range mountainside.
"The strong have dignity, they have honor, but now..." Ender stepped downwards, feeling a little emotional, "It's truly all for the race!"
Undoubtedly, many high-ranking members of the Gold Horn Race sacrificed a lot for the survival and development of their race. This is probably the sorrow of weak and vassal races, but for the Gold Horn Race, simply surviving is a great feat.
"The Gold Horn Race was once a powerful race. When Xi Luo Duo existed, they must have offended many races. When Xi Luo Duo was alive, those races might not have done anything, but it would be different after Xi Luo Duo's fall."
Ender speculated, "Just the Secret Techniques left by Xi Luo Duo, a Top-tier Universe Overlord, would be enough to attract the covetousness of many Powerhouses from other races, plus the treasures Xi Luo Duo left behind... If the Gold Horn Race didn't find a powerful patron, they would inevitably be besieged."
"So, the Gold Horn Race found our Human Race, and at the cost of offering the Secret Techniques created by Xi Luo Duo, became a vassal of our Human Race, gaining a place for their race to inhabit and survive."
Although this was just a guess, Ender felt that his guess was not far from the truth.
While pondering, he had quickly approached the end of the wide steps, and at this moment, Mullie and others were waiting in the plaza at the end of the steps.
"Your Highness."
Seeing Ender arrive, Mullie and the others bowed slightly.
Elder Rient asked, "Your Highness, do you wish to comprehend the Sacred Tablet next, or the beast god statue, or perhaps explore other parts of Laos World?"
"First, I'll go comprehend the Sacred Tablet," Ender said, then thought about his one year of comprehension time. Could that one year be split up?
So, he asked, "Elder Rient, I have one year to comprehend the Sacred Tablet. Is it possible to split this one year for comprehension? For example, I comprehend for one month this year, and then another month a hundred years later."
"Yes, it is possible," Elder Rient nodded hurriedly, "Your Highness, you can split this one year of comprehension time. As long as Your Highness has not used up the comprehension time, you can come to our Laos World anytime in the future to comprehend the Sacred Tablet."
Knowing that Ender wanted to split the one year of comprehension time, Rient wished he would do so.
Because if he did, Ender would come to Laos World again in the future, and their Gold Horn Race would have more time to befriend him, hoping he would come as many times as possible.
Ender nodded slightly, "Hmm, it's good that I can split the comprehension."
The Gold Horn Race's Sacred Tablet was also a precious treasure that could allow one to comprehend profound Laws, not inferior to some Primal Chaos Tablets in Primal Chaos City, and perhaps even a bit more profound than the Divine Tree Primal Chaos Tablet he had comprehended.
Subsequently, led by Elder Rient, Ender and the others headed to the Holy Land within the Sacred City.
The Holy Land was the most dazzling and sacred place in the entire Laos World. There were some secluded residences specially prepared for some Powerhouses of the Gold Horn Race, and also two towers: one called "Technique Tower" and the other called "Sacred Tablet Tower." In terms of importance, the Sacred Tablet Tower was clearly more significant.
"Your Highness, that is the Technique Tower," Elder Rient pointed to a white tower hundreds of kilometers away, saying, "It contains 'trial reads' of various Secret Techniques from countless Powerhouses of our Gold Horn Race throughout history."
Ender nodded slightly. The so-called 'trial reads' were only a very small portion of the beginning of the Secret Technique, similar to choosing a Primal Chaos Tablet. Only after selecting a Secret Technique would one obtain the true Secret Technique.
The reason for doing this was, firstly, to better allow future generations to choose Secret Techniques, and secondly, if there were too many Secret Techniques, it would be inconvenient and unsafe to store them.
"After Your Highness completes one comprehension of the Sacred Tablet, you can enter the Technique Tower to choose the Secret Technique to Cultivate."
"And that is the Sacred Tablet Tower, the place where our Gold Horn Race's Supreme Treasure, the 'Sacred Tablet,' is stored," Elder Rient then pointed to a golden tower in the distance, saying, "Your Highness will enter that Sacred Tablet Tower to comprehend the Sacred Tablet."
Then, Elder Rient pointed around, "This Holy Land is a city within a city, a Holy Land for Cultivation."
Around them were quiet and ancient residences, without any ornate decorations. Everything appeared very old and simple, and at a glance, many residences exuded a very special ancient charm.
On the streets, one could always see unkempt Gold Horn Race Cultivators coming and going, each lost in thought.
The entire Holy Land had no dining or entertainment facilities, only an atmosphere of dedicated Cultivation.
Elder Rient said with emotion, "To own a residence in the Holy Land for peaceful secluded Cultivation, one must either be a truly respected Powerhouse among countless clansmen, or an unparalleled Genius admired by countless clansmen, or a person valued by the Elders."
"Yes, our Gold Horn Race has also prepared a Cultivation residence for Your Highness," Elder Rient smiled, "Please follow me."
A moment later, the group of seven arrived at a residence covering an area of about ten acres. Elder Rient pointed to the residence before them and said, "This is one of the largest residences in the Holy Land. Your Highness can reside here during your secluded Cultivation in the Holy Land."
Looking at the residence before him, Ender nodded slightly. This residence was indeed quite large; at least, he hadn't seen any larger residences along the way.
"Furthermore..." Elder Rient looked at the four King-level Immortal following Ender, "While Your Highness is in Laos World, they will protect your safety, and I will also accompany Your Highness during this time."
Elder Rient was well aware of his own strength. If it was to deal with an Military Lord-level Immortal or a Pinnacle Marquis-level Immortal, he was still confident he could defeat and kill them, but to protect a Genius like Ender, he lacked that confidence.
And these four King-level Immortal, whose comprehension of the Space and Time Laws were all different, could form a perfect complement. As long as it wasn't a Universe Venerable making a move, it would be almost impossible to assassinate Ender under their protection!
"Thank you, all," Ender nodded to the four King-level Immortal.
"Your Highness is too polite," the four King-level Immortal responded simultaneously.
Elder Rient asked, "Your Highness, are you going to comprehend the Sacred Tablet now?"
Ender nodded, "Yes, I'll go now."
He wanted to make progress in the Gold Origin Law to Cultivate the first chapter of Beast God Seven Kills, the Scale Armor Chapter, so comprehending the Gold Horn Race's Sacred Tablet was currently the best choice.
With his affinity for the four lower Laws of Gold, Water, Fire, and Earth, second only to his Wood Origin Law affinity, comprehending the Gold Origin Law should be relatively easy, as he had already comprehended the Earth Origin Law when he was at Stellar Rank.
"Your Highness, please follow me," Elder Rient said, "We will go to the Sacred Tablet Tower now."
Subsequently, led by Elder Rient, the group of seven headed towards the Sacred Tablet Tower.
