When he heard Elder Yu Ce's explanation, Lin Bai looked dull. He didn't expect that the grudge between the heads of the family was so deep?

Moreover, looking at the current movements in the Imperial Palace Hall, Lin Bai knew that what Elder Yuce said was not a lie.

"Elder Yu Ce seems to know more about these heads of the family?"

Lin Bai suddenly changed the topic, looked at Elder Yu Ce curiously, and asked.

Elder Yu Ce smiled bitterly:

"The emperor's son doesn't know that the mortal world regards 'twenty-five years as one generation', while the martial arts world regards 'twenty-five hundred years as one generation'."

"The heads of the family behind the nine temples of the Nine Nether Demon Palace today, whether they are Elder Shirenshan in the First Temple, or Elder Duanmuxin in the Second Temple, or Elder Shen Xing in the Third Temple... in fact, they are all from that generation nine thousand years ago."

"If you calculate carefully, it should be more than 9,100 years old!"

"And I am fortunately... in their generation, I am also a well-known genius in the Demon Palace!"

Elder Yu Ce said extremely modestly, and hurriedly explained:

"I am not such a powerful person. I just got the name of a saint in the First Temple."

The Holy Son of the First Temple Nine Thousand Years ago!... Lin Bai subconsciously glanced at Elder Yu Ce for two more times, feeling extremely confused about this.

Elder Yu Ce is currently the "ancestor of the Yu family", and his cultivation level also has the "Supreme Dao Fruit".

You should know that warriors who can cultivate to the "Supreme Dao Fruit" level are basically the top geniuses between heaven and earth when they were young.

So since that is the case, how could Elder Yu Ce be just the "Son" of the First Temple more than 9,000 years ago?

No matter how bad it is, it should be a "Daozi".

Lin Bai asked curiously: "The rules for the division of geniuses formulated by the Demon Palace make sense, young master, spiritual son, holy son, Taoist son, and god son."

"One link to another link."

"It seems that the names are almost the same, but in fact they are a world of difference!"

Lin Bai thought for a while and decided to ask:

"Since Elder Yu Ce can cultivate to the realm of Supreme Taoist Fruit, he is obviously not an ordinary genius. He must be the extremely stunning warrior in the Demon Palace back then. How could he be just a saint son?"

"No matter how bad you are, you can still make a fool of yourself, right?"

Although the Holy Son and Daozi have only one word difference, their status in the Demon Palace is very different.

Why do so many warriors in the Demon Palace compete for the so-called "Young Master, Ling Zi, Holy Son, Dao Zi, God Son, and even the Emperor Son"?

The reason for this is also very simple.

The main thing is... the allocation of resources!

Like Lin Bai, he has reached the top level in the current generation of warriors in the Demon Palace, and all the resources in the Demon Palace have begun to tilt towards Lin Bai.

Not to mention the distant past, he may be rewarded with the "one hundred Daluo Golden Pills" for the contribution he made to the Demon Palace, but he will definitely not be able to make the Demon Palace promise to "support him to become a warrior in the Hunyuan Dao Fruit Realm."

This seems to be a reward, but in fact, the gap is huge.

After eating one hundred Daluo Jindan, it will be gone. If you want to obtain other resources, you still need to earn merits and exchange them.

The reward given to Lin Bai by the Demon Palace is to "support him to become a warrior in the Hunyuan Dao Fruit Realm". This reward is equivalent to... Even if you use resources to accumulate, Lin Bai will be accumulated to the Hunyuan Dao Fruit Realm.

If Lin Bai had not had the identity of "Demon Palace Emperor's Son", the Demon Palace would never have offered such a large reward specification.

Lin Bai is the emperor's son of the Demon Palace. His personality has been capped, and all the resources of the Demon Palace are tilted towards Lin Bai.

It is not difficult for him to obtain resources.

But as mentioned before, the resource acquisition of young masters, spiritual sons, holy sons, Dao sons, and gods is one after another.

The resources obtained by the Emperor's son is greater than that of all other warriors, the resources obtained by the God's son are greater than that of the Daozi and the Holy Son; the resources obtained by the Daozi are greater than that of the Holy Son and the Spirit Son... and so on.

Therefore, Lin Bai believes that since Elder Yuce can cultivate to the realm of Supreme Dao Fruit, he must be the best in the Demon Palace more than 9,000 years ago. Even if he cannot compete for the position of the Son of God, no matter how bad he is, he should be a Taoist son. It is impossible for him to stay in the position of the Son of Holy Son.

You should know that the resources that the Holy Son can obtain compared to Daozi are very different.

When Elder Yu Ce heard Lin Bai mention this matter, he sighed helplessly:

"Why."

"The Yu family was not a big family in the Demon Palace. Our family did not have much status in the Demon Palace, so naturally they could not win the position of "Daozi".

"It is already the limit to reach the 'Holy Son'."

When he heard this, although Elder Yu Ce did not say it clearly, Lin Bai had already guessed what he meant.

To put it bluntly... the family behind the First Temple is the Shi family. As long as the Shi family does not nod, no one can become the Taoist in the First Temple.

As the controller of the First Temple, the Shi family will naturally tilt the resources of the First Temple toward the Shi family's juniors unconditionally, so that the Daozi and the Son of the God in the First Temple are basically warriors of the Shi family, or warriors recognized by the Shi family.

When Elder Yu Ce said this, he looked at Yu You with a bitter face and said to Lin Bai in a low voice:

"About 800 years ago, Yu You had already had the merits and potential to become a Taoist, but he was not promoted for a long time."

"Fortunately at that time... by chance, I took this step and became a warrior in the Supreme Dao Fruit realm."

"The Shi family saw my potential, and out of the relationship that attracted Yu You, he gave him the identity of Daozi."

Lin Bai could hear that if Elder Yu Ce had not been suddenly promoted to the Supreme Dao Fruit realm warrior hundreds of years ago, Yu You would probably still be a saint son now.

When he heard this, Lin Bai seemed to understand Elder Yu Ce’s “important meaning”.

Lin Bai glanced at Elder Yuce meaningfully and murmured in his heart: "It seems that Elder Yuce is extremely dissatisfied with the Shi family and the First Temple!"

"Is this why Elder Yuce is willing to defect to me?"

Nine thousand years ago, Elder Yu Ce was extremely talented, but because his family did not have much status in the Demon Palace, he was not valued.

Even if you have the qualifications and merits to become a Taoist son, you still cannot be promoted in the First Temple.

Until later, after the "renewal and iterative process of the Demon Palace", he was still a saint son when he withdrew from the stage of the genius.

From that time on, Elder Yuce probably held a grudge against the Shi family and the First Temple.

But the rule of the Demon Palace is "Once one of the nine temples is joined, you will never be able to withdraw, nor can you join other temples."

With this iron rule, it almost blocked the idea and way for other families and warriors to withdraw from the temple.

Lin Bai just asked a few simple questions and did not think about this matter. After all, today's topic is not Elder Yu Ce, so he immediately changed his tone and asked:

"Since Elder Yuce was a warrior of the same era as Elder Shirenshan more than 9,000 years ago, do Elder Yuce have some understanding of the other heads of the family?"

"If possible, please introduce me to Elder Yuce and let me prepare early."

Yu Ce immediately said:

"Since the emperor asked, I am naturally willing to say a few more words."

After thinking about it carefully, Elder Yu Ce also knew that there was not much time, so those who chose the key points:

"I won't say much about the other clan patriarchs, just talk about the heads of the Imperial Palace Hall today."

"The head of the Second Temple is Duanmuxin, who was also a very popular figure more than 9,000 years ago."

"At that time, he was known as the "No. 1 genius of the Demon Palace" in the Demon Palace. In our generation, basically no one could stand with him."

Hiss!...Lin Bai couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this and took a breath. He didn't expect that Duanmu Xin, the head of the Second Temple, had such a brilliant past?

Elder Yu Ce whispered: "Don't question the emperor's son. Duanmuxin, who was the one who walked into the position of the Son of God, could be said to have stepped on the corpses of countless people."

"But although he is extremely talented, he is not arrogant and domineering, but has a gentle and restrained personality, and is quite famous among our generation back then."

"We even thought Duanmu Xin would become the 'emperor son' of the Demon Palace and would become the palace lord of the Demon Palace in the future!"

"But then..."

Lin Bai's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly remembered.

Duanmuxin is so powerful, why didn’t he become the emperor’s son of the Demon Palace?

Even if the conditions for becoming an emperor's son are extremely harsh, with his talent and the support of the Duanmu family head of the second temple behind him, he should be able to become the Palace Master of the Demon Palace.

Elder Yu Ce continued: "Now that the emperor's son has appeared, even if the old palace master abdicates and gives up the wise, it is probably not the turn of Elder Shirenshan and Elder Duanmuxin."

Lin Bai asked meaningfully: "What do you mean is... If I hadn't appeared, once the palace master abdicates and gives up the wise, Duanmu Xin and elder Shi Renshan will probably become the new palace master of the Demon Palace?"

Elder Yuce nodded and said, "Yes, at least that's what we think!"

"But unfortunately, there were many accidents in the middle, which led to Elder Shirenshan and Elder Duanmuxin giving up their position as the Lord of the Demon Palace."

"The most important 'accident' among them is because..."

When he said this, Elder Yu Ce deliberately paused, slowly moved his steps, and then approached Lin Bai and whispered:

"This accident is...we didn't expect that the Palace Master could live for so long!"

Lin Bai asked thoughtfully: "In other words, in your era, is the current Lord of the Demon Palace?"

“Never changed during this period?”

When I thought of this, Lin Bai was shocked.

If this is the case, Yu Ce, Elder Shi Renshan, and Elder Duanmuxin were both figures from more than 9,000 years ago, and that time was the current Lord of the Demon Palace.

Wouldn't that mean...before this, he became the palace lord of the Demon Palace very early?
