166: Section 166

The ancient warship hovered and finally stopped in front of a floating island.

At this moment,

a brilliant divine light suddenly shot out from the floating island, surrounded by rich Dao charm and immortal aura, and a rainbow bridge stretched across, reaching below the ancient warship.

And on the rainbow bridge stood a beautiful, peerless woman.

She was dressed in a palace gown, with an elegant and noble temperament, full of grace and composure, and extremely noble.

"This is the Sect Master of Moonveil Sacred Ground, Saint Lord Youyue!"

"I didn't expect Saint Lord Youyue to appear in person!"

"After all, Taichu Holy Land is visiting, so Moonveil Sacred Ground naturally has to send a powerful person to greet them, and only Saint Lord Youyue is qualified to receive them!"

"But Saint Lord Youyue is truly stunningly beautiful. It is rumored that she was peerlessly beautiful and unparalleled thousands of years ago, captivating many Prodigies who wished to follow her. Seeing her today, it is indeed true!"

"Shh! I advise you to be careful with your words. Saint Lord Youyue is such a figure, how can you discuss her privately!"

Many Martial Artists around recognized the woman's identity immediately and began to discuss animatedly, their eyes filled with admiration.

After all, she was the Sect Master of a Holy Land and rarely appeared in public.

Many people had never seen her in person; they only knew of her from rumors or ancient texts.

And even though they saw her with their own eyes at this moment, they dared not comment too much.

After all, she was a powerful Saint Lord Realm expert with world-shaking Divine Abilities. If she noticed them and felt disgusted, it would be terrible.

"The esteemed guests from Taichu Holy Land have come a long way, truly bringing glory to my Moonveil Sacred Ground!"

Saint Lord Youyue looked towards the ancient warship and spoke.

Her voice was clear, like the chirping of an oriole, extremely pleasant to the ear.

"Junior Sister Youyue, you are too kind. It has been a thousand years since we last met!"

Inside the warship, Elder Qu laughed heartily and said.

"Indeed!"

Saint Lord Youyue sighed with emotion, then looked behind Elder Qu: "Are these the Prodigies from Taichu Holy Land who have come to participate in the competition this time?"

"Yes, how do they look to Junior Sister Youyue?"

Elder Qu asked with a smile.

Saint Lord Youyue's gaze swept over Chu Mo and the other three, and finally, her beautiful eyes fixed on Chu Mo, saying with a smile: "They are all outstanding heroes of their time, with remarkable Aptitude. In comparison, this generation of my Moonveil Sacred Ground is somewhat lacking!"

"Junior Sister Youyue is joking!"

Elder Qu laughed.

Saint Lord Youyue did not continue the topic, she smiled slightly and said: "Residences have already been prepared for the esteemed guests from Taichu Holy Land on the island. Please follow me inside!"

Elder Qu then followed beside her, chatting idly.

As for Chu Mo and the others, they proceeded towards the floating island under the protection of many Elders and guards.

Upon arrival,

they saw a very quiet and elegant courtyard, occupying a large area, enough to accommodate thousands of people. The courtyard had already been cleaned and was ready for immediate occupancy.

"The environment is quite good, showing their thoughtfulness!"

Elder Qu nodded with satisfaction.

"As long as everyone is satisfied."

Saint Lord Youyue smiled slightly, then said: "I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave for now. The Sword Tournament of Various Sects will begin shortly, and I look forward to witnessing the demeanor of your esteemed Sect's Prodigies then!"

With that,

she nodded slightly to Elder Qu and turned to leave.

After she left, Chu Mo and the others each chose a courtyard and began to rest.

Just as the people of Taichu Holy Land settled down,

the news of the Mo Clan Prodigy being suppressed had quickly spread among Prodigies from all sides.

Upon hearing this sudden news, many Prodigies' first reaction was disbelief.

The Mo Clan was one of the three ancient hidden clans, and the Xiao Clan was slightly inferior in strength to them.

It was one thing for their Saint Lord Realm expert, who came with their clan's Prodigy, to be suppressed by Elder Qu with a single palm, but that Prodigy was also suppressed by Chu Mo with a single palm.

Even when the Mo Clan Prodigy used his Great Emperor Bloodline Divine Ability, he had no power to resist.

Although they didn't know the strength of this Mo Clan Prodigy,

the Great Emperor Bloodline Divine Ability was incredibly powerful, and for this Prodigy to possess it meant his strength could certainly be considered extraordinary.

However,

in front of Chu Mo, he couldn't even take a single punch and his Physical Body was directly destroyed.

This result moved many Prodigies, and some were even horrified.

"How strong is Chu Mo's strength exactly?"

"The hidden Prodigy of the Mo Clan couldn't even take one of his punches!"

"It is rumored that Quasi-Saint Child Chu Mo of Taichu Holy Land is most skilled in the Dao of the sword, and he was able to suppress the Mo Clan Prodigy without even fully revealing his strength. How terrifying is that!"

"It seems this Sword Tournament of Various Sects will truly be much more exciting!"

"I'm starting to look forward to Chu Mo's strength now!"

"Previously, the First Saint Ling Xiao of Haoran Holy Land wanted to kill Chu Mo, but I think it will be very difficult for him to do so!"

"Perhaps he can truly outshine all others, sweep away his peers, and claim first place!"

Various forces were discussing, feeling a chill in their hearts over Chu Mo's strength.

The strength of the hidden ancient clans was beyond doubt, and the strength of their strongest Prodigies was also absolutely beyond doubt.

Yet, in front of Chu Mo, he was still suppressed so easily, and even his Physical Body was destroyed.

This was truly too terrifying!

Some people also recalled how Saint Ling Xiao of Haoran Holy Land had boasted earlier, saying he would kill Chu Mo on the arena.

At that time, some thought it might be possible, but now they all felt that Saint Ling Xiao's chances were very small.

"How can he be so strong!"

In the residence of a major power, their successor took a deep breath after receiving the news.

He had originally harbored grand ambitions, thinking of winning first place in this Sword Tournament of Various Sects.

But now, before the competition even began, just hearing Chu Mo's achievements had completely extinguished his fighting spirit.

"With Chu Mo here, it will be difficult for me to walk the invincible path!"

In a certain hidden Sect, a true disciple shook his head and sighed, his face full of bitterness.

He had come out into the world this time

to walk the invincible path and forge an invincible Dao Heart.

He was just about to make a splash in the Sword Tournament of Various Sects, but Chu Mo was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, extinguishing his desire to forge an invincible Dao Heart.

Knowing that such a terrifying existence was present, yet still wanting to walk the invincible path,

that wasn't a firm Dao Heart, but rather a brain defect.

This true disciple of the hidden Sect directly chose to give up.

At the residence of Tianhai Holy Pavilion.

The young Daoist listened to the news from his subordinates, and his usually calm face for the first time showed surprise.

"It seems I underestimated him before. This person can indeed be called a formidable opponent!"

"However..."

Speaking of this, his face immediately showed confidence again: "This Sword Tournament of Various Sects, I still have the ambition to sweep the entire field!"

Haoran Holy Land residence.

Saint Ling Xiao's face was quite gloomy at this moment.

He was originally full of confidence, intending to kill Chu Mo, but now hearing that even the Mo Clan Prodigy was easily suppressed by Chu Mo, it made him feel somewhat troublesome.

"No wonder this person could kill Junior Brother Jun; he indeed has some strength. It's a pity the Mo Clan Prodigy lost too quickly and didn't fully reveal Chu Mo's strength."

"Otherwise, I would have had some confidence!"

"But even so... I still believe I will never be defeated!"

His eyes were bright, shooting out two divine lights.

As if sensing Ling Xiao's thoughts,

the sword hanging at his waist also trembled slightly, emitting a soft hum, and a sharp, murderous aura permeated the air, causing even the Void Realm to faintly tremble.

"He has become much stronger again!"
