Chapter 597: Chapter 321 Seven Years in the Spiritual Realm, The Idea of the 5th Martial Arts Door_2

She had already decided not to return to the Sea Spirit Tribe.

The Flying Boat descended somewhere in Luo State with a thunderous boom, the whole vessel expanding completely as pavilions and towers emerged, morphing into a manor.

The Evergreen Pavilion’s signboard glimmered brilliantly.

From this day henceforth, Evergreen Pavilion would only treat perplexing and complicated cases, only seeing Martial Artists with damaged foundations. For ordinary injuries and sicknesses, they outright refused consultation, though one could still purchase Healing Pills.

Su Lingxiu began her journey across the four corners of the Spiritual Realm. The Evergreen Pavilion’s Flying Boat would not linger long at any one place before soaring into the sky, heading to the next destination.

Gradually, the tale of the Evergreen Pavilion’s Flying Boat spread through the Spiritual Realm, and the notion that encountering the Evergreen Pavilion was a stroke of fate became more widely known.

Inside the Leiyun Mountain Manor, Lei Tong and a host of Supreme Experts from the manor all maintained their silence. The emergence of such a Divine Artifact like the Flying Boat astounded them.

“It is to be feared that we can’t harbor any designs against Evergreen Pavilion before the Divine Bridge opens, not with a Heavenly Venerable in the Spiritual Realm.”

Lord Leiyun spoke gravely.

“Lord, why might a Heavenly Venerable be in the Spiritual Realm?” Lei Tong asked, puzzled.

“I do not know. Once the Divine Bridge opens, all answers will come to light.”

Lord Leiyun shook his head.

“The Spiritual Realm ought to stir up some excitement now. The struggle of geniuses has begun; it’s time for the Spirit Sect’s geniuses to take action and not just fixate on Xu Yan and Meng Chong.

“Xu Yan and Meng Chong now boast formidable reputations, nearly claiming the titles of the first and second geniuses. But who can secure the pinnacle of genius status will only be determined by the final showdown.”

Lord Leiyun said in a heavy voice.

“Understood!”

The group of Elders nodded.

Unlike the last time, this struggle of geniuses was aligning with the opening of the Divine Bridge, where the core geniuses of the Transcendent Spirit Sect would reveal themselves.

As Xu Yan entered Dachuan, his trace became imperceptible, and the fervent discussions within the Spiritual Realm Martial Arts World gradually subsided. Meng Chong also did not publicly appear to challenge other geniuses, resulting in the dwindling of those discussions.

Yet, the geniuses from various Spirit Sects continued to emerge, with battles among prodigies unfolding in almost every major city each day.

As the struggle of geniuses intensified, the ranks on the genius leaderboard constantly shifted, the only constant being Xu Yan at the top followed by Meng Chong.

The elimination rules for the struggle of geniuses were also announced.

Three consecutive defeats, and one is deemed eliminated!

The Martial Arts Realm of the Spiritual Realm was bustling, and the name of the Alchemical Medical Fairy associated with the Evergreen Pavilion’s Flying Boat spread far and wide. Geniuses who had suffered devastating injuries or whose foundations had been shattered regained new life under the miraculous healing hands of the Alchemical Medical Fairy after entering Evergreen Pavilion.

Some geniuses were even able to challenge and defeat their opponents, securing a place in the next round of the genius battles because of this.

In Yuzhou, Tang Jinyan in a certain high-ranking official’s residence in Zheng Country sought clues about Martial Artists who had entered the Spiritual Realm from the Inner Domain, aiming to uncover the truth about Xu Yan.

The high-ranking official of Zheng Country pondered for a moment and handed over a portrait. This was the Martial Artist who had entered the Spiritual Realm from the Inner Domain with a Yu Ling.

As for Du Yuying and the others, involved with the Transcendent Spirit Sect, this high-ranking official dared not reveal the slightest bit of information.

He only presented someone insignificant.

This person had entered the Spiritual Realm with a Yu Ling from the Su Family, but since the Su Family had been destroyed, whether this individual was still alive was uncertain.

Tang Jinyan thus began her search in Yuzhou. To avoid leaking the slightest information, she did not employ any other powers but instead personally investigated with her close maid in the former territory of the Su Family.

For this, she had disguised herself to prevent recognition of her identity.

Yuzhou was no longer dominated by the Spirit Sect families but rather shared governance with the Wanshi Alliance, significantly elevating the status of Loose Cultivators. The Spirit Sect and family Martial Artists no longer possessed the lofty status of the past.

The Su Family’s domain was vast, with several large cities, making it no easy feat to find a single person.

And whether the individual was still alive remained an unknown.

“Seven years already, huh.”

Da Ze State, one of the Eighteen States of the Spiritual Realm, was filled with rivers, lakes, and marshes, hence its name.

Golden Lotus Lake, a renowned lake in Da Ze State, derives its name from the Spiritual Realm’s unique golden lotuses that it nurtures.

With the sunset reflecting off the water, the golden lotuses cast a shimmering glow, lending the lake an air of nobility.

As the Flying Boat gently swayed on the lake, Li Xuan sipped Spiritual Tea atop a pavilion, enjoying the picturesque view of the Golden Lotus Lake.

It had been seven years since entering the Spiritual Realm.

And the ultimate battle of the struggle of geniuses was drawing ever closer.

In these seven years, geniuses had emerged one after another in the Spiritual Realm, their renown growing with each new name, yet to this day, none had managed to replace the rankings of Xu Yan and Meng Chong.

Not even Fang Hao.

Fang Hao had become a prominent genius within the Wanshi Alliance and had led the surge in its prominence. With the introduction of the Communication Talisman, he built a more efficient information transmission system, greatly astonishing the Transcendent Spirit Sect.

Following that, Teleportation Formations were established, linking together the Alliance’s major cities, drastically shortening the time required for reinforcements and travel.

Although the Teleportation Formations could not achieve interstate transport yet, with one after another being established, they began gradually to create a connected network.

Chenzhou had completed its setup, and the strong could mobilize quickly using the Teleportation Formations for aid across different locations, effectively turning Chenzhou into an unassailable stronghold.

These ground-breaking methods, which upended the common knowledge of the Spiritual Realm’s Martial Artists, entrenched Fang Hao’s name in people’s hearts. Loose Cultivators also began to find encouragement, no longer looking up to the Spirit Sects and the prominent families.

For the first time in a real sense, the governance of Spirit Sects faced a threat!

Stealing Fang Hao’s Martial Arts secrets, launching surprise attacks or capturing him had become the most urgent objectives of the Spirit Sects.

Fang Hao had survived more than one assassination attempt!
