65: The geniuses of all sects gathered, including the extraordinary Li Tongshen!
As night receded, a crimson glow illuminated the earth, bringing vitality to all things.
Under the sunlight, a magnificent waterfall surged, shimmering with seven-colored light.
The endless mountain ranges, verdant and lush, lay coiled across the land, with birds and beasts singing joyfully, presenting a scene like a fairyland.
"Hoo..."
Shen Tianxing awoke from his Cultivation, his eyes flashing with golden light, his entire being filled with vigor and vitality.
Boom—
Suddenly, a roar came from more than ten li away.
Visibly, a brilliant light bloomed from a distant place, and a powerful surge of Qi approached from afar.
Immediately after, waves of aura rose from the distance.
There were auras belonging to Essence Spirits and Demonic Cultivators, and at the same time, there was the unique, awe-inspiring Righteous Qi belonging to the Twelve Orthodox Sects!
At this moment, feeling the auras from afar, Lei Bin, Xu Muqing, Liu Yueying, Shu Danqing, and the others all rose from their cross-legged meditation!
"They're here!"
Bai Wuwang was very excited!
Yesterday, he was shocked by Shen Tianxing's strength, and he had been holding back a surge of Qi. Also, because of the presence of Lei Bin and Xu Muqing, he didn't dare to go all out, so he had long been restless.
Now that the experts from the various Essence Spirit and Demonic Dao Sects had arrived, he felt that he was back in action.
"It seems they have already engaged in battle, but it won't be long before they come here."
"After all, Shen Tianxing is our target."
Shu Danqing knew very well that everyone's target was Shen Tianxing; clashing with the Righteous Path Prodigies was just a coincidence.
He was not in a hurry at all.
On the other side, Lei Bin also became excited.
With the arrival of the Prodigies from both sides, the standoff here was finally about to break.
Swish swish swish!!!
Streaks of air-splitting sounds came from far to near; in the distance, massive Great Essence Spirits quickly crossed mountain peaks.
In the sky, Demonic Qi permeated, forming vast dark clouds that spread towards this heaven and earth.
On the other side, dozens of figures soared through the air, flashing with light, emanating a majestic and utterly Righteous Qi.
The people of the Twelve Orthodox Sects had arrived!
The Essence Spirits and Demonic Cultivators had also arrived!
"Something's not right. Those few fiercely Evil Qi-filled fellows, could they be from the Heavenly Evil Sect, Divine Fiend Gate, or True Spirit Dao?"
Lei Bin frowned, a murmur rising in his heart.
The Great Qi Imperial Dynasty not only had the Twelve Orthodox Sects but also Evil Path factions.
However, these fellows rarely made a move; each was very mysterious, their strength unpredictable, and their backgrounds very deep.
He hadn't expected that these people would actually appear here!
This was somewhat beyond Lei Bin's expectations.
"Shen Tianxing's reputation seems to be even greater than we imagined."
"Evil Path individuals never act without profit; their coming here is likely with ill intentions!"
Xu Muqing disliked these Evil Path Cultivators very much; not only were they extremely troublesome, but their methods were also very strange.
They, who had always considered themselves Righteous Path Sects, also felt it was very troublesome.
"Hahahaha... Shu Danqing, Bai Wuwang, still well, I see!"
In the sky, a rough voice came.
A tall figure, shrouded in black mist, slowly descended the mountain peak.
At first glance, he was indistinguishable from a Human Race, but his dense Demonic Qi surged, his face was as pale as paper, and his pair of green eyes appeared extremely eerie.
"Li Tongshen!!!"
One of the most outstanding Prodigies of the Heavenly Fiend Sect, Li Tongshen!
As soon as this person appeared, not only did Lei Bin and Xu Muqing frown, but even Shu Danqing, Bai Wuwang, and Liu Yueying's expressions deepened a few shades.
Although Li Tongshen was from the Heavenly Fiend Sect, he was actually an anomaly!
The Human Race only knew of Essence Spirits and demons, but in reality, Essence Spirits and demons were not the same kind.
Essence Spirits achieve their Dao through Essence Spirits, possessing Innate spiritual intelligence, and transforming into human form. It takes at least decades or hundreds of years to achieve something.
Demons are divided into two types: one is a natural Demonic Cultivator, where various races can enter the Demonic Dao; the other is formed from the resentment and Evil Qi that pervades the world, which cannot take shape without a hundred years!
Li Tongshen himself was a Human Race, but he possessed the Bloodline of a Essence Spirit and Cultivated the Demonic Dao!
Having three identities in one person, he was ostracized by the Human Race, Essence Spirits, demons, and Demonic Cultivators, which is why he was called an anomaly!
But it cannot be denied that his strength was extremely formidable; at only eighteen years old, he had already entered the sixth stage of the Zizai Realm!
He was exceptionally listed as one of the Prodigies by the Heavenly Fiend Sect!
"It seems I've arrived at a very opportune time. Is that Shen Tianxing?"
Li Tongshen didn't care at all about how others looked at him; he had long been accustomed to it.
He came here for Shen Tianxing!
"Brother Li, with your outstanding strength, why not slay him first and claim the Saint Heaven Pill of the Nether Moon Sect!"
Shu Danqing stepped forward, saying with a smile.
The Saint Heaven Pill of the Nether Moon Sect was a good thing. Li Tongshen was a Cultivation fanatic; such a treasure would surely tempt him.
"What's the rush?"
"If I rush ahead, wouldn't that mean not giving Yuan Tian and the others a chance?"
Li Tongshen gave him a half-smile, then sat directly on a stone, looking utterly at ease, with no intention of making a move.
Shu Danqing and the other two exchanged glances, both very surprised.
But soon, they had no more time to think about it.
More and more Essence Spirits, Demonic Cultivators, and Righteous Path experts arrived!
Dense figures streaked across the sky, crossed mountain peaks, and successively landed on various mountain tops.
Among them, a young man wearing a golden-red robe, with two eerie heads around his neck, descended into the valley from mid-air.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes flashing with red light, quietly watching the figure who had his back to everyone, slowly eating a roasted fish.
"Yuan Tian! Li Tongshen!"
Lei Bin and Xu Muqing were on high alert!
These two were the strongest in terms of strength and Cultivation among all the Essence Spirit and Demonic Cultivator Sects' Saint candidates!
One possessed extraordinary talent, inheriting the Bloodline of an ancient Great Essence Spirit!
The other delved into the Human Race, Essence Spirit, and Demonic Dao, with mysterious methods and unfathomable strength!
They had always been the most feared figures among the Prodigies of the Twelve Orthodox Sects!
Even an expert swordsman like Lei Bin, with his extraordinary strength, found them very troublesome!
"And Jin Wujue of the Nether Moon Sect! Chen Xingfeng of the Corpse Control Sect!"
"Adding in the Zizai Realm experts sent by the various Sects, Shen Tianxing, this Human Race Prodigy, is truly impressive!"
On the mountain where Lei Bin and Xu Muqing were, two figures appeared.
One wore a kasaya, looking young and fair-skinned, with handsome features and a ring scar on his head, possessing quite the demeanor of a Buddhist Saint.
Not far from this monk, there was also a young woman in a green dress, with a light veil over her face, walking while carrying a zither.
"Monk Yuankong, Miss Xue Ziyi, you've also arrived!"
Lei Bin was overjoyed to see the two of them!
"Amitabha, not only has this humble monk arrived, but Ye Wuyang and the others have also come."
Monk Yuankong pointed to another mountain peak, saying with a cheerful smile.
The Twelve Orthodox Sects had always been closely linked, but there were also their own small circles within them. Only when facing Essence Spirits, Demonic Cultivators, and the Evil Path were they truly united against external threats.
"What is Shen Tianxing doing? At a time like this, he still has the leisure to satisfy his appetite?"
"The Prodigies of the Essence Spirit and Demonic Dao Sects have all arrived; isn't he afraid he won't be able to leave the Luoying Mountain Range?"
Xue Ziyi's words carried a hint of arrogance; her beautiful brows furrowed slightly, with a touch of incomprehension.
Lei Bin laughed: "You arrived late and didn't see this fellow make a move. Look at the Essence Spirit and Demonic Cultivator corpses all over the ground; this fellow's blade is truly fierce!"
This indeed surprised both Monk Yuankong and Xue Ziyi.
He killed so many people, yet he didn't leave. Was he truly not afraid?
Or was it that his skill was high and his courage great!
He was truly unfathomable!
