569: Who's so blind as to dare to make a move here?

Xuantian City was filled with Cultivators from all over the Five Domains, and as the Contest of the Imperial Son drew closer, almost all influential Sects had arrived in the Central Domain.

The Contest of the Imperial Son, after all, was a grand event held only once every ten thousand years in the Five Domains. The Emperor's Companion who obtained the position of Imperial Son was a true Genius, a once-in-ten-thousand-years phenomenon, revered by countless Cultivators.

Of course, if it were merely the fame of an Imperial Son, it wouldn't attract so many onlookers in the Five Domains.

The most important reason was that powers from the Inner Domain would be present at the Contest of the Imperial Son, and the Genius Cultivator who won the Imperial Son position would be directly taken in by an Inner Domain power, becoming a Disciple of their Sect.

Secondly, besides the Imperial Son becoming an Inner Domain Disciple, the Outer Domain Sect to which this Imperial Son belonged would gain the qualification to ascend to the Inner Domain!

Their entire Sect would enter the Inner Domain!

This was the real reason why all Sect powers coveted this Opportunity!

The Outer Domain was not like the Inner Domain; although it was also suitable for Cultivation, one could get closer to the Dao and comprehend it more easily in the Inner Domain.

In the Inner Domain, not only was the Spiritual Qi more abundant and suitable for Cultivation, but the Inner Domain was also vast, containing countless Forbidden Grounds, Secret Realms, and Ancient Battlefields that had existed since ancient times. Every single one of these places was a dream come true for Cultivators.

Compared to the Inner Domain, while the Outer Domain also had such places, there were too many monks and not enough gruel, often leading to large-scale wars just to seize an Opportunity.

However, in the Inner Domain, such issues did not exist.

Many hidden Opportunities were entirely discovered by Cultivators themselves, and countless treasure lands remained unknown.

How could such a treasure land, suitable for Cultivator survival, not attract the participation of numerous Outer Domain powers?

From ancient times until now, countless once-powerful Outer Domain forces had gained the qualification to enter the Inner Domain.

Very few powerful Sects like the Holy Heaven Demon Sect remained, never having entered the Inner Domain!

The specific reason why powerful Sects like the Holy Heaven Demon Sect never produced an Imperial Son from beginning to end is unknown to outsiders.

After all, the Holy Heaven Demon Sect has already been annihilated...

“There are only five days left until the Contest of the Imperial Son begins. Which Sect will emerge victorious this time? Which family's Prodigy will become the sole Imperial Son?”

“Are you joking? This time, of course, our Central Domain Sects will win the position of Imperial Son. After all, the Immortal Great Sects in the other Four Domains that were qualified to contend for the Imperial Son have all been destroyed. Who else is qualified?”

“That's true. Now, besides the Central Domain still having Immortal Great Sects, the other Four Domains have already lost their competitiveness.”

“Isn't that right? I heard that before those Immortal Great Sects were destroyed by Shen Tianxing, they all sent their strongest Disciples out for training. These individuals thus narrowly escaped disaster and were not completely eradicated. They will surely come to participate in this Contest of the Imperial Son.”

“Hmph, so what? With that great fiend Shen Tianxing around, who can compete with him? Relying on those rootless wanderers? Even the foundations of their Sects have been destroyed. It's a pipe dream for them to defeat Shen Tianxing!”

“...”

It must be said that the name Shen Tianxing had already become an insurmountable chasm in the Contest of the Imperial Son!

No matter where the Cultivators came from, as long as they heard the name Shen Tianxing, they would shiver.

Bang!

Suddenly, a violent sound echoed in the tavern, and a solid wooden table was shattered, startling all the Cultivators who were drinking and chatting, making them jump up.

“Who's so blind as to dare cause trouble here?”

“Damn it, who's causing a disturbance? Get out here!”

The Cultivators at this table were the ones who had been talking the loudest just now.

Not far away, three figures stood there, exuding a sharp aura, like bone-chilling profound ice, piercing directly into people's hearts, as if to freeze their bones and blood solid.

“A mere Shen Tianxing, does he really think he can cover the sky with one hand? The Four Domains Immortal Great Sects were incompetent, but in front of our various Central Domain Sects, if he dares to come, he's destined for a dead end!”

The speaker was a heroic young man with cold, electric eyes and a frosty face. Anyone who looked at him felt a chill run through their body.

The identity of the newcomer was not simple; everyone present recognized him at a glance!

“Yin Hanyi of the Lingyun Sect!”

Someone exclaimed, and it was clear that his name being called out so readily indicated his extraordinary status within the Lingyun Sect.

“And Li Feijian of the Blood Soul Sect, and Mu Qingzi of the Lingxiao Sect have also arrived!”

After Yin Hanyi was recognized, the other two Cultivators accompanying him were also recognized at a glance.

The Lingyun Sect, Blood Soul Sect, and Lingxiao Sect were all Immortal Great Sects in the Central Domain!

Yin Hanyi was one of the most outstanding Genius Cultivators of the younger generation in the Lingyun Sect, so those who could accompany him would certainly not be people of ordinary status.

Li Feijian and Mu Qingzi were the most prestigious and powerful Cultivators in their respective Sects!

“You all praise Shen Tianxing so much, aren't you afraid of offending our various Sects in the Central Domain? Do you know that Shen Tianxing killed many Cultivators from our various Sects? His name is already a taboo. You really aren't afraid of death.”

Mu Qingzi's voice carried a hint of mockery, and his face held a cold sneer. His gaze towards the many Cultivators contained no trace of emotion.

It was as if he was looking at prey, with a hint of cruelty in his eyes.

Mu Qingzi's gaze and voice sent a shiver down the spines of the Cultivators present!

Although this person appeared refined, he was actually the most dangerous of the three!

Even more dangerous than Li Feijian of the Blood Soul Sect!

He was a true Executioner; others merely killed, but this Mu Qingzi, after killing someone, enjoyed tormenting them!

He would extract their Divine Soul and refine their Physical Body into a Puppet, subjecting both the Divine Soul and the Physical Body Puppet to his torment for hundreds or even thousands of years.

This was no secret in the Central Domain; everyone who knew him was aware of it.

“It turns out to be the Saints. I... we didn't mean that. We were just chatting. We hope the three Saints will be magnanimous.”

All the Cultivators present stood up and bowed to the three, appearing very obsequious.

There was no other way; these people knew that in front of these three, if they didn't admit their mistake in time, once they angered them, the outcome would definitely be tragic.

Even though this was Xuantian City, the territory of the Meteorite Sect.

The Meteorite Sect never concerned itself with such trivial matters. Any disputes between Cultivators were allowed to be settled by force!

Only those who could survive had the right to speak. Ultimately, it was still the rule of the strong prevailing!

Li Feijian and the other two laughed coldly a few times. Yin Hanyi flicked his sleeve and walked out of the tavern.

“Those who criticize our Central Domain Immortal Great Sects deserve to die, and there's no need for this tavern to remain!”

Boom!!!

The three left the tavern together, and Yin Hanyi's voice slowly drifted over. Before the Cultivators inside could react, the entire tavern directly turned into ashes!
