The first one must be mine

Under the scorching sun, Jiang Li's mentality was somewhat shattered!

"With my level, how could I be ranked outside of the top ten thousand?"

He frowned, not understanding where the problem had occurred.

But he was, after all, a person who had experienced great storms.

Soon, he stabilized his mentality.

As he pondered, he muttered to himself, "It seems that this generation of Prodigies is very strong!"

"They actually make even this Master feel quite a bit of pressure."

"But what kind of person is this Master? In my previous life, I carved out a path in a bloody storm and stood at the Peak of existence."

"Now, how could I be stumped by a mere Heavenly Dao Rankings!"

"First place will definitely be mine."

"The current ranking is just the preliminary selection; there's still some time until the Heavenly Dao Rankings truly end.

As long as I find some Secret Realms and Opportunities during this period, and refine the Extreme Dao Sacred Body, who else but me could take first place?"

As he spoke, a radiant light of ambition burst forth from him.

Even a hint of excitement appeared on his face.

As a Reincarnation of a mighty being, he naturally possessed the heart to brave thorns, advance courageously, and fear nothing.

The strength of this generation's Heavenly Dao Rankings Prodigies ignited a long-lost restlessness within him.

Only when his competitors were stronger would he feel a greater sense of accomplishment when he trampled them all underfoot.

Thinking of this!

Jiang Li set off again!

He needed to scour Secret Realms and seek Opportunities to crush all these Prodigies with his strongest state.

...

Three months remained until the day the Heavenly Dao Rankings were announced!

During this period, the entire Void Domain, all forces above the Venerable level, fell into a frenzy.

They exhausted their Sect's heritage to ensure their Disciples made it onto the rankings.

Using these three months for a final sprint!

Void Domain!

Five Peaks Mountain!

This was a peculiar place.

Five Peaks Mountain, with Peaks like five fingers, reached ten thousand feet high, its terrain steep and perilous, surrounded by numerous thunderous restrictions.

This was the Five Peaks Secret Realm.

Within the Secret Realm, Dugu Feng stood atop the mountain Peak, drinking aged wine, his gaze occasionally directed towards a certain spot.

There, a figure was seated.

This person was Hao Feng, Dugu Feng's newly accepted Disciple!

At this moment, a surging Qi and blood emanated from Hao Feng's body, permeating dozens of feet around him.

His muscles were condensed, as if cast from divine metal, emitting a powerful aura.

Within his left ribs, a great sun seemed to rotate; within his right ribs, a full moon seemed to rise.

As the sun and moon shifted, a faint purple light emanated.

As the purple light entered his bones, his aura continuously strengthened, and the density of his bones steadily increased.

This was the Sun and Moon Sacred Body.

It not only provided powerful assistance in combat but also offered a terrifying amplification during cultivation.

When Dugu Feng first took in Hao Feng, his cultivation was only at the Three Yang Realm.

But less than a year had passed, and he had already touched the edge of the Myriad Laws Realm.

As Hao Feng's aura grew stronger, the smile on Dugu Feng's face deepened.

After observing for a long time, Dugu Feng slowly withdrew his gaze.

He looked profoundly towards the distant sky.

His gaze seemed to pierce through the vast mountain ranges, falling into the Chaotic Land.

After a long while, Dugu Feng chuckled, "Brother Zhong, oh Brother Zhong, even I am astonished by my Disciple's talent."

"While he can't compare to you, he definitely surpasses your Disciples by several levels."

"When my Disciple makes it onto the Heavenly Dao Rankings, you'll see that having many Disciples is useless; one elite Disciple is enough to surpass a million mediocre ones."

...

Chaotic Land!

Phoenix Feather Sect!

As the end of the Heavenly Dao Rankings drew nearer,

the competition within the Heavenly Dao Institute became increasingly fierce.

One must know that the Heavenly Dao Rankings only had ten thousand spots.

The Heavenly Dao Institute itself had twelve thousand Disciples.

The original Heavenly Dao Institute had just over ten thousand Disciples, and then the Intercepting Heaven Sect brought another thousand or so people.

Everyone wanted to make it onto the rankings, and everyone wanted to gain their Master's favor.

Not to mention the Prodigies from other forces, just the Senior Brothers within the Heavenly Dao Institute were their rivals.

In this world where strength was revered, Zhong Qing gave them an Opportunity to advance, and who would be willing to be inferior and let others hog all the glory?

For a time, the internal competition within the Heavenly Dao Institute escalated to a whole new level.

Today, the Phoenix Feather Sect welcomed two special guests: Ye Wujun, Old Ancestor of Jie Tian Sect, the Old Ancestor of the Intercepting Heaven Sect, and Fang Changtian, the Sect Leader.

The Phoenix Feather Sect Sect Leader personally hosted them.

At this moment, the group was strolling through the Heavenly Dao Institute.

Fang Changtian, the Intercepting Heaven Sect Sect Leader, looked at the Heavenly Dao Institute Disciples diligently cultivating in the distance.

Even though it wasn't his first visit, he still felt a profound shock deep within his heart.

As far as his eyes could see, everyone before him was uniformly an Innate Dao Body, and not just ordinary Innate Dao Bodies, but Innate Dao Bodies possessing ten Innate Dao Imprints.

"Everyone is like a Dragon; it's nothing short of that!"

Feng Buqun, hearing this, flashed a smile of shared pride.

Not only because he was the Phoenix Feather Sect Sect Leader, but also because he had personally witnessed the transformation of these Disciples.

And even more so, because all of this was the masterpiece of Master Zhong Qing.

And he was Zhong Qing's Disciple.

After a sigh of emotion, Fang Changtian said to Feng Buqun, "Sect Leader Feng, I wonder if you would allow us to meet Ling Wushuang?"

The main purpose of the Intercepting Heaven Sect Sect Leader Fang Changtian and Old Ancestor Ye Wujun, Old Ancestor of Jie Tian Sect's visit, besides paying respects to the Phoenix Feather Sect, was to meet Ling Wushuang.

Since the Intercepting Heaven Sect's true lineage Core Disciples joined Zhong Qing's tutelage, Ling Wushuang and others underwent a special training.

To this day, the two sides had not yet met.

They very much wanted to see if Ling Wushuang had made any progress in the Phoenix Feather Sect?

And whether he had obtained that kind of heaven-shaking Opportunity?

Hearing this, Feng Buqun nodded.

"Why not!"

"Please wait a moment."

"I will send a message to Junior Brother Wushuang now."

After Feng Buqun sent the message, he cupped his hands towards the two and said,

"Gentlemen, I still have some Sect matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first."

"Please feel free to look around, and if you have any questions, you can contact me at any time."

As the Phoenix Feather Sect Sect Leader, it was naturally inappropriate for Feng Buqun to remain with them when they came to chat with their junior.

He immediately found an excuse and excused himself.

After some polite exchanges, Fang Changtian watched Feng Buqun's departing figure.

"Sect Leader Feng is indeed a remarkable person."

Ye Wujun, Old Ancestor of Jie Tian Sect nodded.

The two then waited for the person under a nearby shaded path.

Not long after, Ling Wushuang's figure appeared before them.

"Wushuang greets Revered Master and Old Ancestor."

Seeing the two, Ling Wushuang was very happy.

And when Fang Changtian and Ye Wujun, Old Ancestor of Jie Tian Sect saw Ling Wushuang, their hearts suddenly skipped a beat.

"Innate Dao Body!"

"And an Innate Dao Body with ten Innate Dao Imprints."
