“I didn’t expect the Old Sword Saint from Changliu Mountain to come as well.”
Lin Xuantong noticed the Old Sword Saint following behind the immortal from Changliu and immediately treated him with great respect.
The Old Sword Saint sealed his cultivation to achieve the highest realm of the Frost Sword Skills. Using the body of a mortal, he trained in the Mortal World for thirty million years, undergoing tens of thousands of life and death experiences. He saw all walks of human life, displaying a courage and insight not possessed by the average cultivator.
The Old Sword Saint simply nodded in acknowledgment, without saying much.
“Lin Xuantong, Changliu Immortal, it has been many years since we last met.”
A voice rang out, causing the people from both Mount Taihua and Changliu Mountain to turn towards its source.
People from the Kunlun Holy Land?
When Lu Changsheng saw the group of cultivators dressed in Taiji Bagua Robes, he knew they were from the Kunlun Holy Land.
Chongxu Daoist, Yan Zhiqiu, and others were all present.
However, the person leading the team from the Purple Void Palace of Kunlun Holy Land was someone Lu Changsheng had never seen before.
“Daoxuan brother, it has been a while. Your power has improved a lot. It’s truly surprising,” Lin Xuantong said, noticing a significant increase in the powers of Mount Kunlun Sect Leader, Daoxuan True Sovereign.
Daoxuan True Sovereign, like Lu Changsheng, was once the top unmatched genius of his era listed first on the Qilin Ranking, far surpassing the second and third ranked.
Lin Xuantong felt that his own talents were a level below that of Daoxuan True Sovereign.
“I’ve had some minor realizations after years of secluded cultivation,” Daoxuan True Sovereign replied modestly, his tone humble even though his talents surpassed those of Lin Xuantong.
The Purple Void Palace of Kunlun Mountain is the leader among all holy lands. With Daoxuan True Sovereign in charge, he had an extensive network of connections and would not easily offend anyone.
“Among the team from the Purple Void Palace of the Kunlun Mountain, Daoxuan True Sovereign is the strongest, but something is not quite right. Even though Daoxuan True Sovereign is strong, he is only from the same generation as my teacher. There are no Ancestor-level great experts in attendance.”
Seeing that Daoxuan True Sovereign was the most powerful attendee from Kunlun Holy Land at the Heavenly Court meeting, Lu Changsheng felt somewhat puzzled.
Although Kunlun Holy Land was stronger than both Taihua Holy Land and Yaochi Holy Land, it seemed that the Ancestors of the Purple Void Palace did not wish to give face to the Heavenly Court, only allowing the younger Daoxuan True Sovereign to attend the meeting.
However, since Daoxuan True Sovereign, as a Sect Leader, was in attendance, the Heavenly Court could not complain even without the presence of Ancestor-level powerhouses.
In private, Lin Qinghan spoke to Lu Changsheng, “The Purple Void Palace of the Kunlun Holy Land used to be one of the ten thousand divine palaces of the Ancient Celestial Court before it relocated to the Kunlun Forbidden Land, giving rise to the later Kunlun Holy Land. It’s said that Purple Void Palace had a rather unpleasant falling-out with the Heavenly Emperor. It’s quite normal that the Ancestors from the Purple Void Palace are unwilling to come.”
“So there is such a secret,” Lu Changsheng remarked, understanding now why the Ancestors from the Kunlun Holy Land were reluctant to attend the Heavenly Court meeting – the Purple Void Palace was once one of the many palaces of the Celestial Court, and a very powerful one at that.
The Mount Taihua Goddess, the Taiyin Goddess, and other great experts from the Mysterious Lady Palace left to establish holy lands in the Lower Realm, yet the Mysterious Lady Palace did not disband as a result.
The Purple Void Palace, however, was different; the strong ones of the entire palace left the Celestial Court to establish the Kunlun Holy Land, which meant the Celestial Court lost a powerful palace, indicating the relationship between the Celestial Court and Purple Void Palace was not amicable.
They only cooperated to stand against the Demon Realm.
Otherwise, they usually kept to their own domains without interfering with each other.
“Lu Changsheng, I, Yan Zhiqiu, have cultivated for a hundred thousand years in the Yuxu Abyss, absorbing part of the Dragon Vein Spiritual Qi. I am not the same as before. If the opportunity arises, we can spar,” said Kunlun Holy Son Yan Zhiqiu, carrying three longswords and concealing his cultivation with a treasure. With his hands crossed in front of his chest, he spoke with strong confidence in his powers.
After absorbing part of the Dragon Vein, he now possessed the strength to challenge Lu Changsheng.
“If we happen to cross paths,” Lu Changsheng replied.
“Be careful, Changsheng. His cultivation is profound,” Lin Xuantong warned, sensing enormous progress in Yan Zhiqiu’s power.
As the leader of the holy lands, the Purple Void Palace’s foundations were unfathomably deep. It had unique methods of nurturing Holy Sons and Holy Maidens, leading to a constant emergence of talented individuals.
“The people from Guanghan Palace have arrived.”
Everyone looked towards the divine pathway of the Heavenly Court as a group of female cultivators, radiating Immortal Qi and displaying a transcendent aura of purity and detachment, made their entrance.
Lu Changsheng was familiar with the people from Guanghan Palace.
Guanghan Palace Master Li Heng, Guanghan Holy Maiden Xia Ningxue, and the candidate Holy Maiden Jiang Yue…
Li Heng was accompanied by an Ancestor-level figure named Li Daocheng, a Divine King Realm powerhouse with profound cultivation.
Xia Ningxue nodded at Lu Changsheng.
They understood each other well without needing to speak, aware of each other’s thoughts.
“The Sword Saint Wuji from the Primordial Holy Land, and the Primordial Saint Lord! Even the Hunyuan True Sovereign has come!”
Not long after Guanghan Palace arrived, the troop from the Primordial Holy Land made their entrance.
The Primordial Saint Lord and Hunyuan True Sovereign were powerful figures of the Primordial Holy Land, around whom space and time turned chaotic.
Only a few could see the true faces of the Primordial Saint Lord and Hunyuan True Sovereign. Most Elders and Disciples couldn’t catch a glimpse of their true forms.
The Sword Saint Wuji and the Banished Sword Immortal were merely juniors in the Primordial Holy Land.
The arrival of powerhouses like the Primordial Saint Lord and Hunyuan True Sovereign from the Primordial Holy Land at the Heavenly Court meeting showed great respect to the Heavenly Court.
“Daoxuan, it’s been a long time since we last met,” the Primordial Saint Lord said indifferently.
“Indeed,” replied Daoxuan True Sovereign, conversing with the Primordial Saint Lord.
The Primordial Saint Lord was also the top figure of his era in the Qilin Ranking, older and more experienced than Daoxuan True Sovereign. The Primordial Holy Land and the Kunlun Holy Land were closely matched in strength.
“The Pill Saint from the Lianshan Holy Land, Ge Dansheng!”
“It’s said Ge Dansheng’s alchemy skills are heavenly; he crafted Divine Pills of the twentieth grade for many holy lands and can even refine the legendary twenty-first-grade Divine Pill.” Discover hidden content at My Virtual Library Empire
