Chapter 698: Chapter 698: Tianmiao Holy Land Saint Master, Yin Rurong (Three Updates)
Saint Entry, Saint Manifestation, Heavenly Saint, Supreme Saint.
These are the four minor realms of the Saint Realm.
In the Shenzhou Continent, no Supreme Saint has been born, and even if there had been, the world would not know.
Such a level is too terrifying.
As for the Heavenly Saints, there are but a few throughout the Shenzhou Continent. Back then, during the great war where they assisted the Heavenly Dao in blocking the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable, people like the Old Saint Master of the Tianmiao Holy Land made outstanding contributions.
As a result, their prestige is very high.
Among the Nine Great Holy Lands, the Tianmiao Holy Land stands as the most transcendent.
The crowd followed Yin Rurong to a “C” shaped square situated on the Floating Island.
Ye Feng and the others sat in their seats.
And Yin Rurong alone took the main seat facing the crowd.
Clap, clap!
With a clap of Yin Rurong’s hands, a group of young women in white floating dresses immediately came to serve fine wine and Spirit Fruit.
The crowd ate the Spirit Fruit and looked towards the main seat.
“This meeting is somewhat sudden, I hope you will not take offense,”
Yin Rurong’s voice was clear and cold, as if she were an ethereal fairy from the Upper Realms, her aura becoming even more elusive.
She glanced at Ye Feng, failing to see through him.
“Indeed, inscrutable!” Yin Rurong thought to herself.
After a pause, she continued:
“The main purpose of this meeting is to discuss strategies for dealing with the Celestial Clan and the Crimson Moon Demons. I hope you all will offer numerous suggestions and methods.”
Upon hearing this, the people present looked at each other in dismay.
In fact, they had already guessed the general content of this meeting.
It was nothing more than discussing the Celestial Clan and the Crimson Moon Demons.
Now, it was indeed so.
“The origins of the Celestial Clan are mysterious; we’re not aware of where they have taken root. It seems only individuals at the Holy Master level understand this,” Xiao Cangtian said slowly with his arms crossed.
As soon as he spoke, everyone looked towards Yin Rurong.
Among those present, only she was a Holy Land Saint Master.
“I indeed know where the Celestial Clan resides, and it is not a secret. Since you all wish to know, I will disclose it today,” Yin Rurong said.
She waved her hand gently, and the swirling mist continuously gathered into the shape of a massive mountain range.
“Is this… Suspended Mountain?”
Someone recognized the shape of the mountain range.
Bang!
With one slap, Yin Rurong shattered the mountain range formed by the clouds, her voice as cold as ice: “Correct, the Celestial Clan has taken over one of the Ten Great Mountain Ranges, the Suspended Mountain, as their base.”
“How could this be?”
“When did this happen?”
“I remember, Suspended Mountain would appear occasionally in the past. So why didn’t the Celestial Clan show themselves then?”
“What on earth is going on?”
People from the various powers began to discuss.
Yin Rurong seemed to have anticipated that they would ask such questions. She took a delicate sip of Spiritual Tea and said, “Do you remember the battle between the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable and the Heavenly Dao?”
“Though this event occurred tens of thousands of years ago, and we have not experienced it personally, we have still heard of it.”
“In that battle, the Heavenly Dao collapsed.”
“But the already injured Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable was also backfired by the Heavenly Dao, falling into a deathlike slumber. Since then, this person never appeared again, as if he had fallen.”
“However, at that time, there didn’t seem to be a Celestial Clan.”
The people from the various powers talked at length.
Ye Feng, sitting in his seat, heard many secrets.
All present were representatives of powers with at least a Five-Star rating, except for Ye Feng who was given a special entry because of his exceptional strength. The other attendees were essentially ancient beings who had lived for an indeterminate number of years.
The secrets they knew were plentiful.
Ye Feng was merely listening in, yet his knowledge had greatly expanded.
“The Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable fell into slumber and then hid away in Suspended Mountain, a fact that, I fear, you all are unaware of,” Yin Rurong continued to speak.
The whole venue instantly fell silent.
Indeed, they didn’t understand where the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable had gone thereafter.
This secret was also something they were hearing for the first time.
“The Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable entered the depths of Suspended Mountain and concealed himself. In the beginning, even the Old Saint Master of Tianmiao Holy Land was unaware.”
“The Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable slowly recuperated within.”
“Until ten thousand years ago, he finally awoke and regained part of his power, enough to shake the Heavenly Saint!” Yin Rurong continued to reveal.
Hearing her words, the expressions of everyone present changed dramatically.
Able to combat Heavenly Saint upon awakening, the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable was truly terrifying!
“Later, the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable fought with many at the Saint Realm, successfully defended Suspended Mountain, and sealed it up.”
“That battle destroyed the remaining Heavenly Stele Fragments, their essence concealed and vanished from sight.”
“Because the Heavenly Stele Fragments were so unique, even if they were right in front of us, we might not be able to recognize them.”
“Hence, they left no trace.”
“Subsequently, the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable used his power to assimilate the native beings of Suspended Mountain, turning them into the Celestial Clan and created the Crimson Moon Gate.”
“It was since then that the Five Great Forbidden Zones often had bizarre and violent creatures emerge, slaughtering all around.”
“The Old Saint Master speculated that this was the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable absorbing vital energy, hoping to rapidly recover his strength.”
“However, this theory was later refuted.”
“With the foundation of the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable, it’s impossible for him to only need such a small amount of vital energy to regenerate his strength.”
“With his cultivation realm, I fear that he would need to devour the lives of nearly half the Shenzhou Continent to return to his peak.”
“The vital energy collected by those from the Celestial Clan is but a drop in the bucket, meaningless.”
“And lately, with the arrival of the Hundredfold Crimson Moon, swallowing the sun and transforming, it has disturbed the remnants of the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, those from the Celestial Clan who came to the Shenzhou Continent have retained their sanity.”
“This change is very dangerous!”
“It means that the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable has recovered to the next stage, and the situation on the Shenzhou Continent is getting increasingly dire.”
“Now, the power of the Crimson Moon constantly emanates, assimilating countless plants, transforming them into Crimson Moon Demons, continuously slaughtering, capable of drawing vital energy from the entire Shenzhou Continent. I believe this is the true method used by the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable to restore himself.”
“Therefore, we must stop this conspiracy.”
Yin Rurong said a great deal.
It included the various arrangements made by the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable over these ten thousand years, the dangers brought by the Hundredfold Crimson Moon, and the terrible consequences of countless plants being turned into Crimson Moon Demons.
In every place of the Shenzhou Continent, there are plants.
If a significant number of plants were turned into demon fiends, then it would be the doomsday of the entire Shenzhou Continent!
People from various powers also realized the stakes.
Their faces became grave.
On his seat,
Ye Feng took a small sip of Spiritual Tea, finding the taste quite good. If not for the current different circumstances, with the meeting going on, he would definitely want to ask Yin Rurong for some Spirit Seeds to take back and cultivate in the Misty Sect.
Yin Rurong looked around and asked, “This Holy Master has finished speaking. Do you have any suggestions?”
“Now, with the appearance of the Hundredfold Crimson Moon, plant life across the Shenzhou Continent is demonizing on a massive scale. However, their power is weak. As long as all the major powers unite and send their disciples out to eliminate demon fiends, we can surely shatter the conspiracy of the Celestial Clan’s Saintly Venerable,” the Quasi-Saint from the Myriad Transformation Holy Land spoke.
“I agree with this point.”
“The old man also thinks it’s feasible.”
“Let’s do it this way!”
The representatives of the major powers thought the suggestion from the Quasi-Saint of the Myriad Transformation Holy Land was feasible and voiced their agreement.
“Is it really that simple?” Yin Rurong scoffed and further asked, “Have you considered the Crimson Moon Gate?”
At her words, everyone fell silent.
But then Xiao Cangtian burst into hearty laughter, saying, “Is it not just the Crimson Moon Gate? This object is a Four-Star Transcendent Spirit Treasure, impossible for those at the Saint Realm to traverse. At most, formidable enemies of the Four-Turn Quasi-Saint Level could descend upon the Shenzhou Continent. But once they appear, we target and eliminate them fiercely, isn’t the problem solved?”
“Good point.” Everyone nodded in agreement.
