409: Chapter 393 Heavenly Venerate Arrives (1/3) 409: Chapter 393 Heavenly Venerate Arrives (1/3) As more people arrived, even Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Infant Realm old ancestors filled the hall.
After all, Xuanqian Star had produced its first true emperor in tens of thousands of years, and everyone had to show face and support the event.
However, so people were absent, such as the Moon Shadow Saintess, who presumably had gained great benefits in Wind Howl Forest and was now in seclusion, making a breakthrough towards the Divinity Transformation Realm!
Ying Cheng’en was also absent, which Zhou Heng secretly regretted; he had wanted to take this opportunity to slay the leader of Heaven’s Grace Sect.
The Mao Family did send soone, but only a Nascent Soul Realm old ancestor as light as a feather!
In any other situation, a Nascent Soul Realm old ancestor would be sufficient to represent the Mao Family, but this was an invitation from a Divinity Transformation Realm Heavenly Venerate for the Mao Family to attend the ceremony; a Nascent Soul Realm old ancestor truly wasn’t of sufficient status.
And yet, that’s just what the Mao Family did!
No one thought the Mao Family were all fools, so why would they make such a decision?
Clearly, they had enough confidence to confront a Divinity Transformation Realm Heavenly Venerate and didn’t need to grovel before Li Wujie!
Furthermore, with the ergence of the first Divinity Transformation Realm being, it indicated that Xuanqian Star’s Martial Path environnt had restored to, or was nearing, the Ancient Tis.
Thus, the ergence of a second or third such being wouldn’t be surprising!
Li Wujie, now dominant in the world, but unless he could kill off all the heroes of Ancient Tis and geniuses of the present age, certainly soone strong would rise and challenge his hegemony.
This continent was close to the brink of destruction, and the Martial Path World was experiencing surging undercurrents, as if the heavens wanted to throw this world into complete chaos.
Two days later, the day of the ceremony arrived.
Suddenly, everyone felt an overwhelming pressure descending upon them, causing involuntary fear.
It was as if a thousand-kilogram stone pressed down upon their heads, unbearable to withstand.
They looked up and saw a figure stepping through the sky from afar.
Although the person was at a great distance and they should have only been able to see a small dot, everyone could clearly see his features.
He was a middle-aged Scholar who appeared to be in his forties, wearing a bright yellow brocade robe with a high hat.
He had a thin face and a slender figure, and his eyes were gentle as jade but carried endless majesty.
Although seen with their eyes, the Scholar’s image directly imprinted itself in their hearts, like a Deity between heaven and earth, evoking infinite reverence and the need to bow in worship.
For a mont, the coastline was covered with a sea of people kneeling down, while only those in the Nascent Soul and Divine Infant realms, or at least those who had ford a Deity in the Spirit Sea Realm, remained standing.
—— Once a Deity is established, one only respects oneself, with firm beliefs.
Zhou Heng took all the won, including Ying ngfan, into the Nine Mystic Trial Tower.
Undoubtedly, the imposing figure now arriving was Li Wujie!
Only a Divinity Transformation Realm Heavenly Venerate could possess such formidable power to subdue the heavens and earth from such a distance.
Li Wujie seed to stroll leisurely, but with each step, he traversed hundreds of miles, and in an instant, he was above the coastline.
The inexpressible pressure skyrocketed, making even Nascent Soul Realm old ancestors tremble with legs, struggling not to kneel.
This was a blatant oppression compared to earlier!
Li Wujie, what he wanted was the submission of heaven and earth!
Too domineering!
To beco a Half-Step Immortal, one must be a heaven-sent genius, proud and lofty in spirit.
But Li Wujie’s overwhelming oppressive might from the start made clear his position of unrivaled supremacy, how could this not cause resentnt?
Of course, no one dared to oppose him now, as Divinity Transformation Realm was powerful enough to suppress the Universe single-handedly, but if a second Heavenly Venerate were to erge, then just a single command would be enough to make all old ancestors follow the trend, toppling this wall!
But Li Wujie, indeed unmatched in the present age, was justified in his arrogance.
“Father!” The three siblings of the Li Family knelt down to salute in unison, naturally unaffected by Li Wujie’s pressure.
“Hm!” Li Wujie stepped down, standing on the high platform, and said, “I, Li Wujie, am fortunate by heaven’s grace to have entered the Divinity Transformation Realm, and have specially invited you all to observe the ceremony!”
Li Gang brought over a chair, placed it behind Li Wujie, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Li Wujie’s expression remained unchanged, but his eyes slightly tightened.
He sat down and declared loudly, “I co from Ridge Moon Continent, and although I am not a native of Xuanqian Continent, the Martial Path knows no boundaries, and we all pursue Becoming Immortal for Eternal Life.
I also wish to promote the Martial Path and plan to establish a sect.
Those who join may be selected to inherit my Cultivation Technique!”
What, a Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivation Technique?
The crowd instantly erupted into an uproar, with most people filled with excitent.
Martial Artists spend their lives entering dangerous territories, all for the sake of Cultivation Techniques, Pills, and Magic Artifacts, right?
Among all treasures, Cultivation Techniques are certainly the most crucial, the key to breaking through the shackles of realms!
Soone in the Heaven-Opening Realm gaining inheritance from the Mountains and Rivers Realm would be overjoyed, and many Divine Infant Realm old ancestors struggled at the threshold of Divinity Transformation Realm, never crossing it until death.
There was no helping it – when the Xuanqian Star underwent trendous changes, the Spiritual Energy beca extrely scarce, and even those in the Heaven-Opening Realm could barely struggle to survive.
Over tens of thousands of years, every family and sect’s Martial Path inheritance would experience disconnections.
What was passed down on paper is just raw spells; the critical aspects need to be taught through intent.
After that darkest period of the Martial Path’s end tis, even a major sect like East Spirit Immortal Pond had lost many Secret Techniques!
—— Of course, this doesn’t include those from Ancient Tis sealed with Temporal Origin Liquid, like the Moon Shadow Saintess, who regularly received teaching from the East Spirit Heavenly Venerate and already had the qualification to strike at the Divinity Transformation Realm, only delayed by the drastic changes in heaven and earth!
But for martial artists of this era, becoming a disciple in the Divinity Transformation Realm presents an enormous temptation?
Even the old ancestors in the Divine Infant Realm are itching to break through their final barrier.
Li Wujie might be wild and overbearing, but after giving everyone a hefty stick, he offered a sweet date.
In a flash, he won over countless hearts!
However, the sweetener he promised is so intangible— who knows when he will make good on his promise.
Li Wujie scoffed in his heart, seeing the martial artists of the Xuanqian Continent as nothing but a group of monkeys, fit only for his amusent.
He utterly looked down upon them!
If not for the Immortal Fate about to erge here, he would never have risked traversing the starry sky.
His gaze swept across the faces of all present, and as a mighty Heavenly Venerate of the Divinity Transformation Realm, the pressure in his eyes was imnsely heavy.
No one dared to et his eyes—they all lowered their heads one after another.
When he laid eyes on Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng was wearing a smile, fearlessly locking gazes with him.
A joke, indeed.
Zhou Heng had seen several Immortals and had even dealt with them.
Was he supposed to be afraid of “rely” a Divinity Transformation Realm?
At that mont, Li Gang whispered sothing to Li Wujie, and his gaze imdiately turned frosty, saying, “Young man, I heard that my son had so conflicts with you a few days ago?”
“Indeed!” Zhou Heng unabashedly admitted.
“As the son of a Heavenly Venerate, one should be open-minded and magnanimous, embodying the virtue of aiding the world and earning the respect of all.
However, Young Master Li—sigh, he is arrogant and acts recklessly.
I just couldn’t stand by and watch, so to prevent Young Master Li from further sullying the Heavenly Venerate’s reputation, I had no choice but to step in and discipline him.”
Pfft!
Many people couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Who decided that the son of a Heavenly Venerate must be “open-minded and magnanimous” and possess the “virtue of aiding the world”?
That’s the standard for a Saint!
Also, stepping in to discipline?
Wasn’t that making himself Young Master Li’s elder?
Equal in status to Li Wujie?
Wasn’t this an outright mockery of Li Wujie?
Everyone looked towards Li Wujie.
They all knew that he had co to establish his authority today, but with Zhou Heng only at the Nascent Soul Realm, if a Divinity Transformation Realm Heavenly Venerate personally dealt with Zhou Heng, wouldn’t that be beneath him?
It wouldn’t be establishing authority; it would be a downright loss of face!
Moreover, wasn’t Li Gang also at the Nascent Soul Realm?
Shouldn’t the son of a Heavenly Venerate be able to sweep through peers of the sa realm?
Wouldn’t this also be a loss of face for Li Wujie?
What would Li Wujie do?
Feeling the scrutiny of all those eyes, a rage began to swell within Li Wujie.
His gaze slanted slightly as he glanced at his eldest son, filled with a furious dissatisfaction at his lack of fight.
This is the Xuanqian Continent, where the martial path is in decline.
You are my son, inheriting my mantle and bloodline.
How can you not defeat a youngster of the sa realm?
You even have to complain to , a Divinity Transformation Realm Heavenly Venerate, to take up your fight!
If Zhou Heng were in the Divine Infant Realm, then it would be easier to handle.
Li Gang is supposed to lose to him, and I would have good reason to intervene—if you bully the weaker, I can do the sa!
But if I personally deal with Zhou Heng now, all the martial artists in the world would disdain !
I could choose to ignore all this—as the only Heavenly Venerate in the world, who else could oppose ?
But I am ambitious, especially after recently hearing about the reputation of the Great Eternal Emperor.
I want to make a na for myself as well.
What else do martial artists pursue in cultivation if not fa, wealth, power, and beauty?
Therefore, it’s not convenient for to take matters into my own hands.
But just let Zhou Heng go?
Never!
An idea flashed through Li Wujie’s mind, and he quickly ca up with a plan, saying, “My son will be disciplined by , and there’s no need for you to ddle!
Since you like stepping in so much, let’s have another battle!”
“Li Gang, although I have advised you to keep a low profile, there’s no need to endure if others bully you right to your face!
Show your true strength!”
Upon hearing this, everyone exclaid with a realization—it wasn’t that Li Gang lost to Zhou Heng due to lacking ability, but because he was being low-profile, none of the heir of a Heavenly Venerate’s airs at all!
Indeed, how could the dignified son of a Heavenly Venerate lose to a nobody?
That’s impossible!
Li Gang was taken aback, knowing his limits.
He was completely defenseless against Zhou Heng’s moves last ti, and even if he paid full attention, he would still lose— was this not just asking for another beating?
And in front of his father and so many people, no less!
This idiot!
Li Wujie almost doubted whether this son was truly his own.
Transmitting his voice through divine intent, he said to Li Gang, “Just make your move, your father guarantees your victory!”
It turns out his father would secretly assist him!
With his heart steadied, Li Gang’s courage surged, and he challenged Zhou Heng from below, “Zhou Heng, do you dare to fight ?”
The bravado is back!
