234: That's incredibly audacious! The Celestial Realm expert offers a toast and apologizes!

What is this???

Shen Tianxing's voice was like a clap of thunder, exploding in everyone's ears!

A seemingly plain sentence contained an undeniable firmness that left anyone who heard it utterly bewildered!

Who were Lei Tianjue and Ouyang Bi?

They were Two of the Eight City Lords, the power holders of top forces in the Outer Sea, and powerful figures of the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm!

In the Outer Sea, they were true overlords, ruthless and incomparably fierce!

When had they ever been pushed to such an extent by a sixteen-year-old youth?

"Oh my heavens, Shen Tianxing is going to tear the sky apart!"

"What immense courage, daring to confront City Lord Lei and City Lord Ouyang head-on. He truly has the gall of a bear and a leopard!"

"A lawless fellow, let's see how he dies!"

Many Cultivators could not believe what they heard, looking at Shen Tianxing as if he were already a dead man.

No one believed that after offending these two, Shen Tianxing could still live!

"You want us to offer you a toast and apologize? You're simply courting death!"

"You snot-nosed brat, your guts are truly not small. This old man will kill you right now!"

Lei Tianjue and Ouyang Bi were so enraged that they immediately erupted!

One was inherently short-tempered, and the other was a Devil Head with deep schemes; both were ruthless individuals. How could they endure such insult?

Two terrifying Auras suddenly burst forth!

Within the entire altar, a terrifying storm was stirred up, the clouds for thousands of miles roared, thunderclaps echoed, and the Heavenly Phenomenon changed accordingly!

A Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert's fury caused a great change in the Heavenly Phenomenon, striking with the force of a thunderbolt!

It was possible that the entire altar would be shattered under their wrath!

Shen Tianxing remained unmoving, a smile on his face, while Liu Xianyun and Liu Yueying stood beside him in unison, ready to act at any moment.

By now, the three of them were already on the same boat. Liu Yueying knew how to choose and had no thoughts of fear.

Liu Xianyun, even more so, she and Shen Tianxing had already merged their Divine Souls and seen each other frankly. Even though they hadn't expressed their feelings to each other yet, they always thought of each other.

Want to kill Shen Tianxing?

Liu Xianyun wouldn't allow it!

"Have you made enough noise?!"

Boom!!!

Mu Yunqing took a step forward, and a fiercely unparalleled Aura exploded!

The smoke and clouds for thousands of miles dissipated, and the thunder collapsed!

The storm in the field seemed to be blown away by a single breath, vanishing completely!

The powerful and domineering Aura fully demonstrated that Mu Yunqing, one of the Two Islands' Island Lords, was absolutely not a person of undeserved reputation!

His easygoing nature was only apparent when he wasn't angry.

Once he became enraged, the sky of the Outer Sea would truly collapse!

A flash of surprise crossed Shen Tianxing's eyes; this Mu Yunqing, what strong power!

He must have gone very far within the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm.

He truly lived up to his reputation as one of the Two Islands' Island Lords!

Lei Tianjue and Ouyang Bi's expressions were indescribably ugly!

They were also in the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm, but compared to Mu Yunqing, they were still incomparable!

Mu Yunqing's attitude was already very clear: everything was to prioritize the Azure Dragon Secret Realm, and no grievances were to hinder the Secret Realm's opening!

He had agreed to Shen Tianxing's request!

"Two City Lords, this old man has said it before: as long as Shen Tianxing's request is not excessive, you will comply!"

"As for anything else, this old man will not say it a second time!"

After Mu Yunqing's small display of power, it was enough for Lei Tianjue and the other to understand that his will would not be defied!

This loss, even if they were unwilling, they had to swallow it!

The Cultivators from all sides who had witnessed the entire process were all astonished!

The dignified Two of the Eight City Lords, facing Shen Tianxing, actually had to compromise?

Mu Yunqing even went so far as to personally confront the two of them, just to satisfy Shen Tianxing!

This was simply too incredible!

But from another perspective, many Cultivators also realized how precious the Opportunity within the Azure Dragon Secret Realm truly was!

"Island Lord Ouyang, suffering a loss now is nothing; everything must prioritize the larger situation!"

After Mu Yunqing finished speaking, a clear and cold voice came from the side.

The speaker was a young Prodigy, dressed in a white martial attire, with a fiery bird wreathed in flames carved on his chest—that was the symbol of the Divine Beast Vermilion Bird!

This Prodigy was none other than Ling Yu, the Saint of the Vermilion Bird Prefecture!

As soon as he spoke, the anger in Ouyang Bi's eyes, which had been burning fiercely, began to rapidly disappear.

"City Lord Lei, a wise man knows when to retreat. Look further ahead, don't forget what your duty is!"

As the Saint of the Vermilion Bird Prefecture spoke,

On the other side, a Saint who had come with Lei Tianjue also spoke!

This person was from the Azure Dragon Mansion, also one of the Six Mansions of the Inner Sea, and his power had already reached the Ninth Level of Soul Palace Realm!

The persuasion of these two Saints played a decisive role!

The proud Ouyang Bi and Lei Tianjue finally made the correct decision!

"Bring the wine!"

Lei Tianjue roared, with a sense of the heroic twilight.

Soon, someone brought two cups of wine.

Lei Tianjue and Ouyang Bi no longer procrastinated. Each raised a cup of wine and personally presented it to Shen Tianxing.

"Shen Tianxing, I was wrong!"

"Shen Tianxing, this old man apologizes to you!"

Two Heavenly Phenomenon Realm experts bowing their heads to Shen Tianxing—this outcome truly exceeded everyone's expectations!

From Mu Yunqing's forceful suppression of the two, followed by the two Saints speaking, these were all reasons why the two had no choice but to humble themselves.

Everything was for the Secret Realm's opening!

As for how to deal with Shen Tianxing later, that was a matter for the future.

Shen Tianxing looked at the two who had lowered their noble heads and finally smiled with satisfaction.

He picked up a cup in each hand and said with a smile, "The two City Lords are very sensible; they know what it means for a wise man to adapt to circumstances!"

"Let's put today aside. Our accounts will be properly settled after the Secret Realm ends."

Splash!

Shen Tianxing picked up the two cups of wine and, in front of countless Cultivators, poured them onto the ground.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; this difficult person had finally relented!

However, no one noticed that when Shen Tianxing poured out these two cups of wine, he poured them from left to right onto the ground!

This method was only used when commemorating the dead.

He now used it on Lei Tianjue and Ouyang Bi, clearly, in his eyes, these two people were already dead men!

It seemed like a universally happy situation, but everyone knew that this was not the end!

Lei Tianjue and Ouyang Bi had utterly lost face today!

They returned directly to their people and said no more.

"Time's up, please present the incomplete map!"

Mu Yunqing stood at the edge of the altar and shouted loudly.

The eight pieces of the incomplete map, without exception, were taken out from the hands of several forces.

Shen Tianxing naturally did not break his word and also sent the incomplete map in his hand to a corner of the altar.

The eight pieces of the incomplete map occupied a corner of the eight directions of the altar, and a strange power immediately erupted from the eight corners!

Boom!!!

A soaring azure light, and the roar of a Dragon echoed through heaven and earth!

The Azure Dragon soared, and heaven and earth resonated!

Across thousands of miles of sea, great waves surged, with lightning flashes!

Endless Spiritual Qi gathered from all directions and rushed towards the altar!

Within the altar, light shone brightly!

Buzz!!!

A bronze gate appeared out of thin air!
