A Man Like None Other And The Man Decree

Though Talcott had visited the Celestial Palace before, each visit had filled him with dread, his heart racing in awe and fear.

The guards stationed at the entrance of the grand hall were cultivators at the Ultimate Realm. Along the sides of the hall stood cultivators at Ultimate Realm Levels Six and Seven, their expressions unreadable as they maintained a silent vigil. They weren’t even permitted to sit.

This was just the Tenth Hall, the weakest of the ten halls that made up the Celestial Palace. Talcott had heard of its ranking, and even here, the sheer strength on display was overwhelming. It was difficult to fathom how immense the power of the entire palace must be.

At the center of the hall, seated on a magnificent throne, was a middle-aged man dressed in a long yellow robe, his posture regal and commanding. A crown sat atop his head, his expression cold and aloof, exuding an air of absolute authority.
