Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Soul Searching a Heavenly Dao Sect Disciple, Another System Holder

"You can't kill me! I am a Disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and our leader is a Void Refining expert! If you dare to kill us, our leader will not let you off!"

"Qiankun Daozi, if you don't kill us, our Heavenly Dao Sect will definitely not trouble you. Just for the sake of our Sect Master's Face, please spare us. Just consider us as farts and let us go!"

Li Kui and Yun Boguang alternately threatened and pleaded with Gu Shengge, hoping he would spare them.

Gu Shengge remained unmoved, but hearing one call himself a 'leader' and the other a 'Sect Master,' he grew suspicious.

He flashed in front of the two, placed his hand on Li Kui's terrified head, and his Divine Sense unceremoniously probed into his mind, forcefully performing a Soul search!

"Ah ah ah ah!!"

The pain of having his Soul forcefully searched made Li Kui wail incessantly, as if someone was carving his flesh inch by inch with a knife, making him wish for death!

A moment later, Gu Shengge withdrew his hand. Li Kui also fell silent, having fainted from the pain, and even if he woke up, he would be an idiot.

Afterward, he forcefully Soul searched Yun Boguang to learn more about the Heavenly Dao Sect.

After reviewing all of Li Kui and Yun Boguang's memories, Gu Shengge gained a lot of understanding about the Heavenly Dao Sect, especially the Heavenly Dao Sect Master, whose identity he was able to deduce.

"So that's how it is. It seems there's another System holder..."

In Li Kui's memory, half a year ago, they were merely bandits in a desolate wild mountain in Haoran Province, and their stronghold was called Heavenly Dao Stronghold.

The old leader spoke grandly about leading them to act on behalf of the Heavenly Dao, but in reality, he just led his four subordinates to rob and plunder.

However, not long after, the old leader died. The young leader, Long Aotian, accidentally bumped his head on the old leader's coffin and fell unconscious.

When the young leader woke up, he was like a changed person, no longer timid and submissive. He displayed Immortal-like abilities and renamed the Heavenly Dao Stronghold to Heavenly Dao Sect.

Long Aotian took the four of them as his Disciples, had them address him as Sect Master, and used Immortal methods to forcefully raise their cultivation, sending them out to cause trouble. Then, he would step in to suppress those who were provoked, thereby plundering Spirit Stone resources.

In Li Kui and their memories, Gu Shengge also saw the countless blood debts they had accumulated: rape, kidnapping, cannibalism, humiliating wives and daughters in front of their husbands. They committed every conceivable evil, even massacring Mortal cities!

All these evil deeds were done to draw enemies for Long Aotian.

And each time, Long Aotian would display strength one Realm higher than his opponent, crushing them.

Through this characteristic, Gu Shengge guessed that Long Aotian was also a System holder, and what he obtained should be a System that is always one Rank higher than others.

By confirming the opponent's cultivation, the System would boost the host's strength, always one Rank higher than the opponent.

If it were other Systems, Gu Shengge might be wary, but he feared this kind of System that forcefully raises cultivation and relies on Realm suppression the least.

True peerless Prodigies all possess the ability to challenge those of higher Ranks and fight against the odds.

If this Heavenly Dao Sect Master only possessed the ability to crush lower Ranks with a higher Realm, then his threat was even less than that of a Prodigy.

Gu Shengge waved his hand, and a bolt of lightning struck Li Kui and the other's bodies, reducing them to ashes, their Souls dispersed, with no chance of Reincarnation.

Seeing this, the Mo Yun City Lord sighed, only hoping that the Heavenly Dao Sect Master would not vent his anger on them.

Noticing the Mo Yun City Lord's worry, Gu Shengge calmly reassured him, "City Lord Wu, you don't need to worry about the Heavenly Dao Sect Master troubling you. That fellow doesn't have the guts."

According to Yun Boguang's memory, Long Aotian was very cautious; each time, he would only dare to appear after the four of them, his subordinates, had led the targets to the Heavenly Dao Sect's small desolate mountain.

Therefore, even if Li Kui and the others died, Long Aotian would not dare to come to Mo Yun City.

"Then I shall take Qiankun Daozi's auspicious words to heart," the Mo Yun City Lord said, cupping his fists.

After dealing with the two from the Heavenly Dao Sect, Gu Shengge did not linger in Mo Yun City. He led the silent Tantai Qingxuan by the hand and left Mo Yun City.

...

Xuantian City, a massive city built by the Xuantian Tower, second only to the Haoran Academy in Haoran Province. Moreover, it was not built on the ground, but in the sky ten thousand zhang high, like a gigantic beast covering the sky, standing majestically above the clear blue sky.

With the Heaven-Grade auction approaching, all forces in Qiongsang with Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm and above had received the news in advance and traveled millions of miles to Xuantian City.

Thousands of Spirit Boats, flying ships, and flying Spirit Beasts continuously poured into Xuantian City, making the sky outside the city somewhat crowded.

Dozens of brilliant Sword lights swept across the clear blue sky, immediately attracting the attention of many Cultivators.

Leading the Sword lights was a handsome young man, reclining on a Flying Sword, holding a wine gourd in his hand. He occasionally took a swig against the strong winds, looking incredibly carefree and happy.

This also drew gasps of admiration from the Cultivators.

"That's a Sword Cultivator from the Lingxiao Sword Sect! Hiss~ As expected of the number one Sect in Yunxiao Province, they are all Golden Core Cultivators, and could the leading Nascent Soul be the rumored Wine Sword Immortal?"

"Wine Sword Immortal! Could it be the Wine Sword Immortal who gets stronger by drinking, who used a hundred jars of Falling Moon Frost as an catalyst to directly enter the Nascent Soul Realm, whose Sword Intent made ten thousand swords submit, and who is as free and easy as an Immortal when drunk!"

"Hiss~ As expected of a Heaven-Grade auction, it even attracted the Wine Sword Immortal."

Just as the Cultivators were exclaiming, another treasure ship sailed into view.

The treasure ship was entirely jade-colored, enveloped in five-colored spiritual light. The hull was carved with an image of a goddess mending the sky, adorned with thousands of five-colored lotuses, encircled by Phoenixes, exquisite and luxurious.

A Cultivator recognized the treasure ship and instinctively cried out in surprise.

"The Butian Pavilion's Goddess Ship! Could it be that the Goddess of Butian Pavilion has also arrived!"

"What! The Butian Pavilion Goddess is here! Where, where!"

Upon hearing of the Butian Pavilion Goddess, some Cultivators' eyes lit up, becoming incredibly excited.

After all, the Goddess of Butian Pavilion was among the top ten on the Peerless Grace List compiled by the Xuantian Tower.

It was rumored that her beauty was peerless, her demeanor cold and aloof, and she possessed an Innate Dao Embryo, naturally attuned to the Dao. Though still in her prime, she was already a Nascent Soul expert.

Countless people wished to glimpse her beauty, but it was always concealed by a veil. Even a Soul Transformation Celestial Being had never seen her.

Subsequently, representatives from over a dozen more forces arrived.

There was the Po Tian Mountain, primarily composed of Blade Cultivators; Dan City, primarily composed of Pill Cultivators; Luo Feng Ghost Capital, primarily composed of Soul Cultivators; and the Jietian Sect, whose principles were opposite to those of the Butian Pavilion.

Just as the Cultivators were still debating whether the Butian Pavilion Goddess was more beautiful or the Jietian Sect's Demoness was more enchanting, a Dragon roar suddenly echoed, reverberating beyond the nine heavens.

Many flying Spirit Beasts, hearing this Dragon roar, stiffened and fell from the sky.

This caused great trouble for their Spirit Beast masters.

Everyone's gaze, including the representatives of the various forces who had not yet entered the city, was drawn by the Dragon roar.

Golden light shimmered, overwhelming the sky.

They saw a golden True Dragon flying from the distant sky. Its Dragon body was slender and long, a hundred zhang in length, and its back width exceeded ten zhang. Its Dragon horns were like coral, shimmering with golden light, and its golden Dragon scales seemed cast from gold, gleaming under the sun. The Dragon's might permeated the air, as if it were venting.

And on top of the Golden Dragon's head stood two figures, one of whom, a white-robed figure, many Cultivators recognized at a glance.

"Stepping on a Golden Dragon, with double pupils in his eyes, it's Qiankun Daozi!"
