80: Xuanhuang Immortal Meeting begins
Ever since the destruction of the Mystic Ancient Divine Hall, the Xu Family was mentioned most frequently. He didn't know why, but whenever he heard of the Xu Family, he always felt that there was some connection between them and him.
"Revered Master, is this Xu Family the main branch? I don't know why, but I always feel that I have some connection to this Xu Family!" Xu Qian frowned.
And within his jade pendant, the somewhat ethereal figure of the old man also looked puzzled.
Everything was too coincidental, yet some things didn't make sense. The Xu Family's main branch would probably be doing well if they could produce a King Realm expert now, so how could they be the overlords of the Xuangu Domain today?
But he knew Xu Qian himself, and he knew he wasn't lying, which was very strange.
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore! What I need to do now is leave the Land of Thousand Domains!"
Unable to get a reply, Xu Qian stopped thinking about it.
The old man's aged voice rang out, "That's right! The Land of Thousand Domains is ultimately too small, and due to a great war in the past, the rules here are restricted. Cultivating in this place is ultimately not conducive to your growth. Only by going to the Nanming Divine Continent will you find a paradise for Martial Artists."
"Currently, what you need to do is to stand out in the Alchemist competition held by the Alchemist Guild, become a disciple of an Elder of the Guild, and then use this status to leave the Land of Thousand Domains."
"Yes, Revered Master!"
Time flew by, and a month passed in a flash.
"Rumble!"
On this day, above Cloud Mist Mountain, countless immortal lights surged, and divine radiance illuminated the world. The ancient and magnificent South Heaven Gate descended a divine light, forming a thousand-zhang wide white jade staircase that extended all the way to the foot of the mountain.
On both sides of the white jade staircase, every hundred steps, there were two divine soldiers exuding powerful auras, standing with spears, solemn and majestic. The cultivation of each one was no weaker than the Mystic King Realm.
Seeing this scene,
Numerous forces and powerful Martial Artists all set off.
For this Xuanhuang Immortal Assembly, powerful experts from other domains had already arrived in the Xuangu Domain early, so when the time came, countless experts ascended within a hundred thousand li radius of Cloud Mist Mountain.
"Roar!!!"
"Howl!!!"
Suddenly, huge roars continuously echoed through the nine heavens. The Martial Artists looked over and saw luxurious chariots, terrifyingly powerful venerated beasts... This was the work of major forces!
For a time, throughout the entire world, powerful King Beasts pulled luxurious chariots; divine boats and immortal birds were ridden by people; and even Martial Artists traversed the Void Realm, making it incredibly lively.
Among them, there were not a few people with grievances who met, but today everyone was very restrained, fearing that their momentary anger would incur the displeasure of the Xu Family.
In short, this area became completely lively because of a grand event.
"As expected of the Xu Family, just a single grand event has gathered all the Heavenly King Realm and above forces from the Profound Ancient Thirty-Six Domains."
"Unfortunately, our cultivation is not enough. We don't have the opportunity to participate in such a grand event!"
Some people yearned for it.
"Stop talking, I'm at Mystic King Perfection, just half a step away from being able to go to the Xu Family, it hurts so much!"
A Martial Artist at Mystic King Perfection broke down.
Many Martial Artists looked up, watching the grand scene, and could only sigh with regret!
All those participating in the grand event quickly parked their chariots, treasure ships, and Yao Beasts at the foot of the mountain.
They looked up at the ancient Heaven Gate with longing in their eyes.
"Those who enter Xuanhuang may ascend the steps!"
A grand voice emanated from the mouth of a middle-aged divine general in front of the various forces.
"Venerable!"
Seeing this person, most Martial Artists' expressions changed.
Because this middle-aged divine general was actually a Venerable in the Middle Stage of Sealed Venerable.
Originally, some experts from top forces were somewhat dissatisfied that they had to walk up from the foot of the mountain upon their arrival, but seeing such a powerful Venerable assigned to guard the foot of the mountain, their dissatisfaction immediately dissipated, and at the same time, a hint of apprehension appeared on their faces.
The prestige of the Xu Family was well-deserved. A Venerable, even in the Southern Four Hundred Domain Worlds, was a powerful existence. Even if they went to the Thirteen Sects, they would be received by the Elders of various sects.
However, the Xu Family had a Venerable guarding the foot of the mountain, such a domineering display of power made the various forces become cautious.
The major forces stepped forward one after another, ascending the steps.
Of course, the first batch to go up were all the top forces of the Profound Ancient Thirty-Six Domains. These forces must have a Venerable at Sealed Venerable Perfection in their clan, otherwise, they simply could not become top major forces.
After that came those forces that did not have Sealed Venerable Perfection but had three or more Venerables.
And in the third batch were the Venerable-level forces with only one or two Venerables, and among these forces, the Canghai Sect was prominently listed.
Within a month, Old Ancestor Canghai successfully made a Breakthrough and was now leading Cang Xuan and a group of Elders.
"Fellow Daoist Tianhai, have you noticed anything?"
Old Ancestor Canghai's voice rang in the ear of a certain Elder of the Canghai Sect.
"Old Ancestor Canghai is joking. This Xu Family has a Profound Venerable expert. I am but a small Venerable, how can I notice anything!"
The Elder's expression remained unchanged.
Upon hearing this, Old Ancestor Canghai's eyes flashed with an unknown look as he gazed at the Cloud Mist Mountain above, his heart somewhat uneasy.
"Hiss!"
"Another Venerable!"
Exclamations came from above, as some forces had already reached the South Heaven Gate.
A hundred Star Guardians exuding powerful auras stood at the South Heaven Gate, each with Heavenly King Realm cultivation; and closer to the South Heaven Gate, two Venerables in the Late Stage of Sealed Venerable stood.
It was these two who caused some forces to exclaim.
It was only when they reached this point that they could finally glimpse the scenery within Cloud Mist Mountain.
What met their eyes was a majestic divine mountain, with Myriad Daos of golden light accompanied by rolling red clouds, auspicious clouds and propitious Qi enveloping purple mist, beautiful as an immortal realm.
Immortal palaces stood in rows on it, magnificent buildings constructed with nine-colored glazed tiles, and the white jade staircase beneath their feet connected to a huge city at the foot of the mountain, with the two large characters "Xuanhuang" inscribed upon it.
"Enter the South Heaven Gate, and you can be teleported to the Profound Yellow Palace. Do not panic when the time comes!"
At this moment, an indifferent voice came out.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a bald old man in a blood-colored monk's robe wiping the blood sabre in his hand at a corner of the South Heaven Gate, and the aura emanating from him caused everyone to be horrified.
Profound Venerable!
Among the powerful experts who had arrived this time, there were several at Sealed Venerable Perfection, but they were all currently hidden within their respective forces, and no one recognized them.
Now, feeling the aura of Blood Sabre Old Ancestor, their expressions suddenly changed.
"Greetings, Senior!"
An old man, whose body was already withered as if he would collapse at any moment, led his clansmen forward and bowed to Blood Sabre Old Ancestor.
"This is... Old Ancestor Xue Xuanzhi of the Xue Family!"
The identity of the old man was immediately recognized by Venerables from other forces. This person was a powerful expert at Sealed Venerable Perfection.
The Xue Family had also risen to the position of a top force because of him, but now the other party was old and frail, with at most a little over a hundred years left.
His personal arrival this time, without a doubt, was for the Thousand Longevity Pill.
Seeing this, Blood Sabre Old Ancestor's eyes showed a hint of a smile.
"You have some manners! Old Ancestor sees that you are fated, so I'll give you this. Just hand it over to the welcoming Elder!"
Blood Sabre Old Ancestor threw out a jade talisman.
Xue Xuanzhi was overjoyed and quickly took the jade talisman with both hands.
"Thank you, Senior! Thank you, Senior!"
Although he didn't know what the jade talisman was for, since it came from Blood Sabre Old Ancestor, it must be useful. This might be an opportunity for the Xue Family.
"Greetings, Senior!"
Seeing this, other forces came forward to pay their respects, but unfortunately, Blood Sabre Old Ancestor merely nodded and made no other gesture.
The group of experts could only show a bitter smile.
Blood Sabre Old Ancestor continued to wipe his blood sabre. Xue Xuanzhi understood the other party's meaning and led his clansmen inside amidst the envious gazes of the crowd.
