80: Return to the North to see my family
The opening of the Immortal Ancient World and the upcoming Genius Competition in Central Province quickly spread to every corner of the Dao Xuan World.
Before long, the entire Dao Xuan World was abuzz with excitement.
As a result, Descendants from countless forces in the Eastern Wilderness, Northern Region, Southern Barbarian Lands, and Western Regions rushed to the Central Province.
In the Central Province, Descendants from the truly great powers also emerged from their cultivation, exuding towering Battle Intent, eager to compete with the heavens.
The Pride of the Heavens had waited for this day for too long, and now that it had finally arrived, they couldn't help but be excited.
Heavenly Devil Hall in Central Province!
A Restricted Area!
“Hehehe, I, Celestial Devil Son, have waited for this day for too long! The Immortal Ancient World has opened, the Genius Competition is being held, and this day has finally arrived!”
“My first stop after emerging will be the Genius Competition; I’ll take first place to settle my nerves.”
In the Restricted Area, a Young man stood tall, enveloped by endless demonic energy.
In his deep, dark eyes, an incredibly dense demonic aura swirled and emanated!
A true Great Demon!
From the towering murderous aura alone, it was clear that his hands must have been stained with the blood of many living beings!
Undoubtedly, this was an extremely powerful Pride of the Heavens, emerging now to conquer the world.
...
Immortal Hall in Central Province!
In a palace!
A Young man with an ethereal, almost immortal aura was looking up at the sky and letting out a long roar.
“Hahaha! The Immortal Ancient World has opened, and the Genius Competition in Central Province is being held! I, Jiang Xian, have finally waited for this day!”
“When I emerge this time, I will make sure my name is known throughout the Dao Xuan World!”
“First in the Genius Competition, supremacy in the Immortal Ancient, dominance on the Emperor Road—in this life, destiny is with me!!!”
The Young man’s confident and soaring voice echoed throughout the great hall, carrying an indescribableDomineering and a disdain for all under heaven!
...
Yuhua Dynasty in Central Province!
“Tian’er, the Immortal Ancient World has opened, and the Genius Competition is being held. Do you have the confidence to take first place?”
In an ancient-style pavilion, an Old man smiled as he watched the Young man below, asking.
“Hehe, Grandfather, I am determined to win this Genius Competition; no one is my opponent!”
The Young man below looked up, his brows filled with a rich heroic spirit.
His posture was tall and straight, like a divine sword about to be unsheathed, ready to cleave the sky!
The Young man was named Lin Tian, the top-ranked Pride of the Heavens in Central Province, possessing the Yuhua Sacred Body, and having inherited the Legacy of the Yuhua Dynasty’s Old Ancestor, making his divine abilities terrifying.
In Lin Tian’s view, this so-called Genius Competition was practically tailor-made for him, an excellent opportunity for him to once again make a name for himself.
After this Genius Competition, his reputation would reach an unprecedented height, shaking the entire universe!
...
Qilin Lineage, Azure Fox Lineage, Black Tortoise Lineage…
Many forces saw the emergence of terrifying Pride of the Heavens, all aiming for the top spot in the Genius Competition!
Such an endless stream of terrifying Pride of the Heavens emerging at once was a grand occasion never seen in previous eras!
Therefore, this was bound to be an unprecedented struggle!
...
Su Family, Northern Region.
“Xuan’er, you said you want to go to Central Province to participate in the Genius Competition?”
Above the main hall, almost all the important figures of the Su Family were present.
At this moment, everyone’s gaze was focused on Su Xuan, with admiration, approval, and respect.
Su Xuan had long since become famous throughout the world; his terrifying talent and powerful strength had left everyone amazed, earning him his rightful status.
“Yes, Father, I want to go out and explore, to see how far I can truly go.”
Su Xuan looked at his Father, Su Yuntian, and spoke with extreme seriousness.
“Xuan’er, your talent is very strong, even stronger than the Great Emperor of our Su Family’s ancestors… Your talent truly needs to be honed in a larger world.”
Su Yuntian gazed at Su Xuan, a faint, benevolent smile on his face, then paused before continuing: “Since you have made up your mind, then go.”
“The sea is wide for fish to leap, the sky is high for birds to fly. Xuan’er, your Father and I believe in you! You are always the best!”
Su Xuan’s Mother, Jiang Yue, had slightly reddened eyes, seemingly a little reluctant to let Su Xuan go.
“Mother, thank you. From childhood to now, you have always encouraged me to do what I want, encouraged me to be brave, encouraged me to contend with other Pride of the Heavens… It is these encouragements that have given your child confidence, and led to who your child is today.”
“This time, as I go to the outside world, I will surely make the Su Family’s name known throughout the Nine Heavens!”
Su Xuan approached, gently hugged Jiang Yue, and said softly.
He had originally thought his heart was already very strong, but at this moment, there was still a great fluctuation.
This was the power of familial affection, very mysterious.
“Xuan’er, striving for supremacy is important, but as your parents, in our eyes, your safety is even more important, more important than anything else…
On the path of contention, you can lose, you can fail, that doesn’t matter, but you must not perish; you must come back alive…”
Jiang Yue held Su Xuan’s hand, her eyes red, and softly admonished Su Xuan.
“Yue’er is right, Xuan’er. Even if you fail on the path of contention, no one will blame you. As long as you come back safely, that is better than anything else.”
Su Yuntian also said this to Su Xuan.
“Xiao Xuan, when you go to the outside world, there’s no need to hold back. Be as strong as you need to be, as overbearing as you need to be. You must establish the prestige of our Su Family!”
Just then, a deep voice suddenly resounded in the great hall.
The next moment, space shattered, and an immortal-like, white-haired figure slowly stepped out from within. It was precisely the Su Family’s Eighteenth Ancestor, Su Xuanji!
Su Xuanji appeared in this space holding a whisk, a strong scent of wine permeating from him. At this moment, he was smilingly looking at Su Xuan.
“Xiao Xuan, if anyone outside bullies you, immediately use a magical artifact to inform me! In the entire Dao Xuan World, whoever dares to touch you, I will annihilate them!”
Su Xuanji’s voice was filled with domineering confidence, truly looking down on the world.
Su Xuan was slightly moved and nodded heavily.
“Good!”
Leaving the Su Family, Su Xuan’s body transformed into a streak of rainbow light, heading directly towards the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace.
The Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace was not far from the Su Family.
Coupled with the blessing of the Divine Movement Treasure Art's 'Movement' secret.
It didn't take long for Su Xuan to arrive at the foot of the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace mountain.
The Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace was situated atop a high mountain, with dense mist permeating the foothills, exuding a mysterious aura.
The gatekeepers were two young female Cultivators, who were currently chatting idly.
“I wish to ascend the mountain. Is it permitted?”
Just as the two Cultivators were chatting, a young voice suddenly echoed in the space.
The two Cultivators were slightly startled, looked up, and instantly fell into a daze.
Both female cultivators’ mouths were wide open, their faces showing an infatuated expression.
At this moment, their minds were blank; they had lost the ability to think, only feeling that the Cultivator before them was incredibly handsome, almost excessively so.
His jade-like countenance, transcendent and ethereal temperament, and sculpted features made him seem like heaven’s most perfect work of art.
This figure, without a doubt, was Su Xuan.
With the Genius Competition beginning, Leng Ruoli was very likely to attend.
So, Su Xuan thought of coming to the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace to ask if she wished to accompany him.
“Ladies, I wish to ascend the mountain. Is it permitted?”
Seeing that the two Cultivators did not answer him, Su Xuan repeated his question.
This time, the two cultivators’ thoughts were pulled back.
“Who are you, Lord? Our Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace generally does not allow outside Cultivators to ascend the mountain.”
The two Cultivators said seriously.
“My name is Su Xuan.” Su Xuan smiled faintly and said calmly.
“What?! Su Xuan?!!! You are that… the Su Family’s Young Emperor who married our Holy Maiden?? That… Su Xuan who recently became famous throughout the world???”
The two Cultivators were astonished.
They had never seen such a great Lord, and now they were even stammering slightly as they spoke.
“Unless there’s an accident, it should be me.” Su Xuan smiled faintly.
“Young Emperor Su, please ascend the mountain!”
The two Cultivators immediately made a “please” gesture to Su Xuan.
Stop Su Xuan?
What a joke?
Even if they were given a hundred times the courage, they wouldn't dare!
