Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Billowing black fog enveloped the sky, and was about to block the pillar of light that sprinkled down from the sky.

Under the surging black fog, a group of people appeared on the horizon.

The person in the lead was wearing a brocade robe. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes and looked handsome, but at this moment, his face was filled with gloom.

He was naturally Gu Shujue.

The appearance of the Heavenly Demon Sect naturally attracted the attention of many cultivators present.

“The Heavenly Demon Sect is here. Could it be that the East Sea Mystic Realm is going to attract all the geniuses of the three races and three sects?”

“That’s inevitable. After all, the phenomenon in the East Sea Mystic Realm this time is too monstrous. It’s impossible not to attract attention.”

“The prodigy leading the Heavenly Demon Sect should be the young master of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Gu Shujue.”

“Is that him? The person with an ancestral artifact who was almost killed by Shen Ran.”

“…”

Gu Shujue had just arrived. It was because he sensed Shen Ran’s aura that his expression turned gloomy.

Now that he heard someone say that, Gu Shujue’s lungs were about to explode. His originally handsome face looked a little resentful.

He glanced in Shen Ran’s direction from the corner of his eye again, and killing intent flashed across his eyes.

As for the people from the Heavenly Demon Sect, they descended from the sky and landed on another island.

The itinerant cultivators who had originally occupied their position became miserable.

They had finally managed to snatch a good place, but now it was occupied by the Heavenly Demon Sect. They did not dare to say anything and could only leave dejectedly.

Subsequently, after the group from the Heavenly Demon Sect arrived, the Zhou family, the Zhao family’s prodigies, and some other cultivators arrived.

However, their arrival attracted the discussion of countless cultivators.

Of course, they also compared their prodigies with Shen Ran.

Naturally, some prodigies being beaten up were also included in the discussions.

This made Zhou Zhiran and the others even angrier.

As more and more cultivators arrived, two figures slowly approached an island in the absence of attention from the crowd.

These two people were Chen Beixuan and Xiao Han, who had been in East Sea City, but they came very late.

Although the two of them did not want to attract attention, the aura fluctuations emitted by them were clearly stronger than ordinary people. It was impossible not to attract attention.

The moment they saw the two of them, some people recognized them.

“Ah, am I seeing things? Are they the ones everyone in East Sea City is fighting against – Master Xiao and Chen Beixuan?”

“Haha, I heard that our Master Xiao was almost killed by Shen Ran in the Fallen Phoenix Hill Mystic Realm.”

Also, shouldn’t Chen Beixuan marry the Ninth Princess of the Great Yan Imperial City? Why is he still in the East Sea Mystic Realm?

“Tsk tsk, could it be that they also want to obtain natural treasures in the East Sea Mystic Realm and soar into the sky?”

“…”

In an instant, when they recognized the two of them, there were continuous fingers pointing and mocking voices.

It was mainly because the two of them did not have a good reputation and had become street rats in East Sea City. Now that they saw them, everyone wanted to tease and mock them.

As mockery continued to be heard, Chen Beixuan and Xiao Han lowered their heads, clenched their fists, and looked extremely gloomy.

Although they did not say anything, the killing intent in each other’s eyes was about to surge out.

The two of them secretly swore to change everything when they entered the mystic realm and obtained natural treasures.

Let these people who mocked them regret it!

The mockery directed at Chen Beixuan and the other man only lasted for a moment.

Another carriage soared through the sky.

The carriage floated in midair, attracting the attention of countless people.

A slender figure walked out of the carriage.

As soon as the figure appeared, the seemingly bright sky dimmed a lot. Endless light gathered on this slender figure.

The figure was wearing a blue robe and had a rich aura. He had sharp eyebrows and a handsome face.

Ji Qinglin!

He was naturally Ji Qinglin, one of the three Dao Seeds of the Empyrean Sword Sect.

“Wow! There are actually two Dao Seeds from the Empyrean Sword Sect this time! What are they doing?”

“Ji Qinglin, this is a top prodigy who has become a Dao Seed for a long time. It’s said that among the prodigies of the Southern Region, he has the strength of the top five!”

As Ji Qinglin appeared, shock sounded again.

At this moment, Chen Beixuan, who was below, also took a deep look at Ji Qinglin.

Just like that, under everyone’s gaze, Ji Qinglin slowly landed with his men. They did not land on the island where Shen Ran was but casually found an island.

With Ji Qinglin’s arrival, fewer cultivators arrived at the East Sea.

Seeing this, everyone knew that almost all the cultivators from the Southern Region who could participate in the East Sea Mystic Realm had arrived.

Some people also scanned the area. There were a few people standing on some islands.

There were only seven small islands.

This was naturally the islands where the three races, three sects, and Ji Qinglin were.

Moreover, an old man was standing in front of the Beast Taming Mountain, the Zhou family, the Heavenly Demon Sect, and the other islands.

The old man was naturally the leading elder of their respective forces.

The most eye-catching person was the elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

The elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect was a middle-aged man with a calm expression.

But he had only one arm. The sleeve of his other arm was empty.

But even so, it shocked many people.

“It’s actually the one-armed old man from the Heavenly Demon Sect!”

“The one-armed old man at the eighth level of the Marquis Realm is personally leading the team. It’s said that although the one-armed old man is an elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect, he’s actually the Deputy Sect Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect!”

It seems that the failure of the Fallen Phoenix Hill Mystic Realm last time has taught the Heavenly Demon Sect a lesson.

“Actually, speaking of which, the faction in the Fallen Phoenix Hill Mystic Realm last time had nothing to do with the elders. It was just that the disciples were no good.”

“…”

Seeing that those voices sounded again, the one-armed old man of the Heavenly Demon Sect shook his head slightly. In order not to disturb Gu Shujue’s temperament, he turned to look at Shen Ran in the distance.

“The Dao Seed of the Empyrean Sword Sect, Shen Ran. At the sight of him today, he looks good.”

When Shen Ran heard this, he also looked over.

Before Shen Ran could respond, suddenly, the one-armed old man’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and his cold and majestic aura instantly soared, enveloping Shen Ran.

Moreover, the one-armed old man’s words became cold.

“As the saying goes, the tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed. Sometimes, if you’re too ostentatious, you’ll easily pay a painful price!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ran, who was in the distance, shrugged slightly and shattered this pressure. He looked at the one-armed old man with a smile.

“Even if I have to pay a painful price, I, the tall tree, have to bring some small saplings with me!”

Shen Ran’s words sounded.

The one-armed old man was stunned.

Before he could say anything, suddenly,

“Shen Ran, well said!”

“On the other hand, you old man, who are you threatening with these words?!”
